I Was a Swordsman in Ancient Japan

Kyoto, Nijo Castle (Nijo Imperial Palace).

Nijo Castle consists of two major architectural complexes - the Honmaru Palace and the Ninomaru Palace.

Kara Gate - the main entrance of the Ninomaru Palace.

First pass through the Higashi Otemon Gate, enter the Nijo Castle, and then enter the Kara Gate to enter the Ninomaru Palace.

After passing through the Kara Gate and entering the Ninomaru Palace, turn left to enter the Ninomaru Garden.

The Ninomaru Garden adopts a cloister-style style. The most conspicuous feature of the Ninomaru Garden is its huge pond.

There are three islands on the pool, one big, two small.

The larger island is named "Penglai Island", and the other two smaller islands are named "Turtle Island" and "Crane Island".

Tonight's banquet will be held on a certain piece of grass on Penglai Island.

The reason why it should be held on the grass is also proposed by the daimyo of the Owari domain, that is, Tokugawa Munemu, who decided to hold this banquet.

In order to experience the feeling of this picnic.

Having a banquet in a luxurious palace - Tokugawa Munemu has long been tired of this routine.

Just now, this grand banquet began.

The absolute host of this banquet - Tokugawa Munemu is the undisputed host.

According to their status and rank, the attendees sat on the left and right sides of Tokugawa Munemu in turn.

The representative of the capital, Tadahiro Toda, sat at the first place on the right hand side of Tokugawa Munemu.

Then down in order is the Osaka Castle Dai Horita Masahiro, the temple priest Ota Suzuki...

After taking a sip of the wine, the blushing Tokugawa Munemu whispered to Toda who was sitting at the bottom:

"Toda Qing, today I sent people to look at some burnt areas in Kyoto."

"You did a good job. Although the burnt areas have not had time to rebuild due to insufficient funds, no one is homeless anymore."

Seeing Tokugawa Munemu praise himself,

Toda quickly sat upright, skillfully putting a bright smile on his face.

"Lord feudal lord, you are too well-respected, I just did what I was supposed to do."

Tadahiro Toda is nearly 50 years old.

Short and fat-these two words should be the first impression of most people after seeing Toda Tadahiro. The plump stomach that seemed to be stuffed with a large quilt was extremely conspicuous.

When he bent down and spit out all kinds of modest words at Tokugawa Munemu, Toda had a smug sneer on his fat face.

But because Toda Tadahiro was pressing his forehead to the ground at this time, no one could notice the smug smile on Toda's face at this time.

The few officials sent by Munemu Tokugawa to inspect the status quo of the burnt area had long been bribed by Toda.

The burnt areas that Toda took the bribed officials to see were the burnt areas specially "cleaned up" by Toda.

Toda had received rumors before that - while Munemu Tokugawa came to Kyoto to watch this year's Gion Festival, he wanted to send someone to see how the reconstruction of Kyoto was going.

Toda, who received the news in advance, dispatched people to drive away all the residents of the burnt areas near Nijo Castle before Tokugawa Munemutsu arrived in Kyoto.

This is the truth of "the victims of the Tianming fire have been arranged".

Tokugawa Munemu is still praising Toda Tadahiro's ability.

Hearing these compliments from Munemu Tokugawa, Toda's face became more and more complacent...

...

...

Standing not far away, Kotaro watched the banquet with cold eyes.

There are 28 ninjas in charge of guarding Nijo Castle.

Kotaro is one of these 28 people and is also the overall person in charge of this mission.

At this moment, Kotaro was standing in a dark place not far from the banquet site, silently looking at the banquet.

"As expected of the strongest daimyo—the banquet held by the lord of the Owari Domain..."

Kotaro sighed in a low voice that only he could hear clearly.

Kotaro couldn't recognize the quality of clothing worn by these people at this banquet.

But he recognized the quality of food they ate.

The food eaten by these people in the banquet hall is all genuine delicacies from mountains and seas.

Not to mention his Kotaro, even the leader of their Shiranui, the Balrog, might not be able to eat it all his life...

After sighing softly about the extravagant life of the upper class, Kotaro stretched vigorously.

"What a boring task..."

"Kotaro, you're right, the task of 'defending Nijo Castle until the banquet of these people is over' is really boring."

"Heitaro, you're here."

A figure slowly emerged from the dark place behind Kotaro, and gradually outlined a specific shape.

Heitaro——One of the ninjas who followed Kotaro to guard Nijo Castle.

After standing beside Kotaro, Heitaro continued:

"What's so good about the Nijo Imperial Palace... It's impossible for someone to attack the Nijo Imperial Palace without knowing what to do..."

"Although it is impossible for someone to attack the Nijo Imperial Palace." Kotaro smiled, "but the shogunate's superficial work still needs to be done."

"Kotaro." Heitaro suddenly changed his tone to be more serious, "The four Rutaro who were in charge of looking for Machi have not returned to their orders until now."

Hearing Heitaro's words, Kotaro frowned slowly.

A total of 32 ninjas came to Kyoto this time.

Twenty-eight of them were responsible for guarding Kyoto, and the other four were responsible for tracking down the defected Atachi while the rest were guarding Nijo Castle.

Kotaro entrusts Rutaro and the others with the task of tracking down Machi.

Kotaro has made an agreement with the four Rutaro who are responsible for tracking Acho: he must report to them regularly.

And now the agreed time has passed, but up to now there is no sign of Rutaro and the others returning to report...

This made Kotaro couldn't help but make the worst plan in his heart...

"...Heitaro, you secretly brought 3 Chunin to Rutaro and the others."

Hearing Kotaro's words, Heitaro was shocked.

"Kotaro, we need at least 28 people to guard Nijo Castle." Heitaro said in a deep voice.

The agreement they made with Shiranui and the shogunate was to send at least 28 powerful ninjas to guard Nijo Castle until Tokugawa Munemu and their banquet ended.

Tokugawa Munemu's banquet is still going on. If they find that the number of ninjas guarding Nijo Castle has decreased and has not reached the number agreed in advance, it will be troublesome.

"Don't worry." Kotaro shrugged, "These people are busy eating, drinking and having fun, so they don't care if our number is small or not."

"They won't find out if there are four people missing."

"Anyway, Ertiao City is very safe, there is no possibility that anyone would dare to attack Ertiao City, so it doesn't matter if there are 4 more guards or 4 less guards."

"Go quickly. Regardless of whether you find Rutarou and the others, come back in one hour and report back."

"...Yes!" After hesitating for a while, Heitaro answered "Yes" loudly.

...

...

Kyoto, Three Princes Street, inside a certain uninhabited private house.

After capturing the bald man and inspecting the three-story building to confirm that no other enemies were still hiding in the building, Ogata and his party left the building and took the bald man to In an uninhabited private house some distance from this three-story building.

When moving to this uninhabited private house, Ogata and Makimura exchanged information with each other.

Mucun, Hasegawa and the others were also able to know that the wife and daughter of the owner of the Xuanxue Museum were kidnapped and rescued by Ogata and the others, as well as the existence of Ryunosuke and Tsuruga.

This uninhabited private house appears to have been a tea house before, and has 2 floors.

At this moment, Ogata and his party are all located on the second floor of this tea house.

"Yes, just tie him up like this." Mu Cun said to Hasegawa.

"Makimura." Hasegawa followed Mucun's command and tied his bald hands tighter, while asking Mucun, "Why did you tie him up like this?"

At this time, the bald head was tied to a paper sliding door that had been removed.

The bald head whose hands and feet were all tied to the paper sliding door was not placed flat on the ground.

The bald head's feet were tied to the south side of the paper sliding door, and his hands and head were tied to the north side of the paper sliding door.

There are a lot of things on the bottom pad of the south side of the paper sliding door, making the bald head present a weird posture with his feet padded high, the height of his feet above his head, and his nostrils slightly facing the sky.

Makimura, Ogata, and Hasegawa worked together to tie their bald heads into this strange posture.

"Why did you tie him up like this?" An intriguing smile appeared on Mucun's face, "You'll know later."

"Senior Mucun." Shimada quickly walked towards Mucun with a large jar of water in his arms, "I brought the water you asked for!"

"Well, it's been hard work."

Mucun, Ogata, and Hasegawa all had their heads tied up.

Shimada followed Mucun's instructions to find water.

As for A-Machi, he was idly holding Poggy and playing with Poggy.

After receiving the big irrigation from Shimada, Mucun whispered to Ogata and Hasegawa next to him:

"Okay, you two back away a little bit."

Although they didn't know what Mucun was going to do, Ogata and Hasegawa obediently took a few steps back as Mucun said, and stepped aside.

Holding the big pot of water in his hand, Mu Cun walked slowly to the side of the bald head.

"You, what are you going to do?" The bald head looked at Mucun in horror.

"I have a lot of things to ask you." Mucun said to the bald head in an indifferent tone without any emotion, "but I know——you will definitely not obediently tell all the things you know."

"So—I'm going to let you suffer a little bit first."

"This is a method of torture that I accidentally discovered when I was still working in Kyoto."

"It's the worst form of torture I've ever told you about."

"The method of use is very simple, just a little water is enough."

"It's extremely powerful. Until now, I haven't found anyone who has the ability to survive this torture."

"No one."

After emphasizing "there is no one", Mucun tied the rag that A-cho used to cover the bald man's mouth just now on the bald man's face.

Because the head is hooped and cannot turn at will, the bald face can only be pointed straight at the ceiling

After tying the cloth to the bald head's face, Mucun tilted the water pot in his hand and poured the water in the pot towards the bald head's face covered by the cloth.

The water in the jar formed a water column that was neither slow nor urgent and fell on the bald head's face.

It is not difficult to see from Mu Cun's skillful pouring technique - it must not be the first time he has used this trick on people.

When the water was poured on the bald head's face, it was difficult for the bald head to remain calm.

But after only a few breaths, the bald head began to struggle.

After a few more breaths, the bald head's struggle suddenly became several times more violent!

The strength of the struggle made everyone present think that those few hemp ropes might not be able to tie him down.

"Shimada!"

"Ah, yes!"

"Come here and give me a hand, hold him down, and keep him still!"

"yes!"

Following Mucun's instructions, Shimada quickly ran to the bald head's side, held the bald head's shoulders, and suppressed the bald head's violently struggling body.

However——from the expression on Shimada's face and the bursting veins on Shimada's arms, Shimada's suppression of the bald head was not easy.

Ogata and Shimada fought once, so they have a general understanding of Shimada's strength and speed.

In terms of strength, Shimada is considered to be an outstanding type, and it is obvious at a glance that he is the kind of person who never neglects exercise.

Shimada, who is not weak, still struggled to suppress the bald head, one can imagine how violent the bald head struggled.

Looking at Mu Cun, who was expressionless and indifferently pouring water on his bald face, Ogata thought to himself:

——It’s very similar to the water boarding in the United States on the modern Earth...

When he discovered that Mucun's so-called torture method was pouring water on the bald face, Xu Fang suddenly thought that Mucun's torture method was very similar to the waterboarding in the United States on the modern earth.

Before the Edo period, Ogata learned of the existence of waterboarding by chance.

As far as Ogata knew, waterboarding was a brutal form of torture.

This kind of torture can make prisoners feel like they are about to suffocate and drown.

The reason why waterboarding is cruel is that under the control of the nerve center, the victim who cannot breathe opens his mouth and swallows vigorously. A large amount of water is sucked into the stomach, lungs and trachea, causing the victim to vomit and cough in the water. The lungs and trachea secrete a lot of thick nasal mucus, and he suffers from incontinence, suffers from indescribable pain, and keeps dying.

It is precisely because of the cruelty of waterboarding that few people can withstand this cruel waterboarding.

While pouring water on the bald head's face, Mucun was also observing the bald head's state.

When he noticed that the bald head seemed to be dying, Mucun immediately stopped watering, and then bent down to remove the cloth tied to the bald head's face.

"Puff! Vomit! Vomit! Ha... Ha... Ha... Vo! Go! Go! Go! Go! Go! Go! Ha... Ha... Go! Go! Go! Go! Go! Vomit! Vomit!"

As soon as Mucun took off the cloth, the bald head immediately coughed and vomited wildly, vomiting a lot of water.

Runny nose and saliva all over his face.

Waiting quietly for the bald head to recover a bit, Mucun silently tied the rag on the bald head's face again.

"Wait, wait! Wait a minute..."

The bald head seemed to want to say something, but Mucun ignored him at all, and silently tied the rag around the bald head's face again.

Because of the rags tied to his face again, the bald head could no longer speak a word, and could only whimper with unknown meaning.

After retying the rag to the bald head, Mucun used waterboarding on the bald head again.

...

...

Mucun used waterboarding three times on the bald head.

After the third waterboarding was over and Mucun took off the cloth tied to the bald head's face again, the bald head immediately vomited and said to Mucun in a pleading tone while crying:

"I said! Cough cough! Ha... ha... ha... vomit! vomit! vomit! What am I... cough cough cough! Vomit! cough cough! I... I can say anything! Ha... ha... Cough! Cough cough cough! I will say anything! You ask me anything and I will say anything! Please let me go!"

"That's good." Mu Cun threw the pot with little water left in his hand aside, "You said it. I will ask you anything later, and you can answer whatever. If you dare to hide it and don't report it, I will let you tell me again. Drink plenty of water. There's a well nearby anyway, and there's plenty of water."
