Chapter 547: Who Comes?

Although Japan is now considered to be in troubled times and all places are not peaceful, it also indirectly gave rise to many job opportunities, especially for samurai. Looking at the follow-up, compared with the abolition of swords after the Meiji Restoration, the samurai not only lost their jobs, but also couldn't even find a tool to commit suicide, which is much better.

Especially those masters are now up for grabs. Whether it is the Zuoba faction or the Banbai faction, they are now actively fighting for manpower.

However, Zhang Heng has no interest in this road. Once he joins a certain force, he no longer has to worry about food and clothing, but he also loses his freedom. This era emphasizes the absolute obedience of retainers to the patriarch. If you can't refuse, if you recite it a little bit, you will be treated as cannon fodder.

The purpose of Zhang Heng's dungeon trip is not only to get a good knife that suits him, but another purpose is to challenge the masters and seek opportunities for breakthroughs in his knife skills. Which side one's own position is fixed on, playing by ear is the best choice.

In fact, if he wants to make money, he doesn't really have to rely on his status as a samurai. There are many foreign businessmen in Kyoto now, and compared to others, Zhang Heng also has a lot of foreign languages. There was always a shortage of translators in the era. He could get paid by translating for those foreign businessmen, and by the way, he could visit Kyoto for free.

After making up his mind, Zhang Heng planned to go to the pier to take a look. It was getting late now, and if he couldn't negotiate a deal before sunset, he might have to sleep on the street.

Zhang Heng was about to leave, but suddenly heard a voice calling,

"My lord, do you want a grilled eel skewer?"

Zhang Heng lowered his head and saw a timid little face. It was a little girl about eleven or twelve years old, holding a food box, and she was selling to Zhang Heng. Nervous, the hand holding the food box was shaking all the time.

But before Zhang Heng could reply, an older companion of hers dragged her away.

Although the latter lowered his voice, Zhang Heng still heard her words, "Chiyo, don't provoke those ronin, they are all dangerous guys."

The little girl named Qiandai took another look at Zhang Heng, but the two of them were busy retreating to avoid the "dangerous person" Zhang Heng, but they accidentally bumped into the person coming from the other side.

Chiyo's companion raised his head, his face turned pale instantly, and stammered, "Yes... sorry, I didn't see you."

"Impolite brat," the person who was hit was also dressed as a samurai, but his demeanor was much better than that of a vagrant like Zhang Heng. There were two companions by his side with a bit of drunkenness on his face. Where did he just drink the flower wine, and he used his strength to overturn the food boxes in the hands of the girls, and shouted, "It is because of you idiots that this country keeps letting those Westerners Human insult!"

"Brother Yamada, be careful, it's good to be heard by those guys from the Shinsengumi." The companion beside him persuaded.

"What are you afraid of? Matsuo, the times are different," the samurai named Yamada was unafraid, "What's more, I have long wanted to experience Isamu Kondo's natural mental flow."

Yamada said loudly, but the two companions around him were shocked when they heard the words Shinsengumi, and couldn't help but look around. After the Ikedaya incident, Isamu Kondo and his ronin group Shinsengumi They became famous in battle and won the title of Mibu Wolf. They are staunch supporters of the shogunate. While helping the shogunate maintain law and order in the Kyoto area, they also deal with those who have fallen behind the shogunate. People's faces change.

Matsuo didn't know why Yamada suddenly mentioned these evil stars, he winked at Takahashi on the other side, as if he was complaining why Takahashi had given Yamada so much wine just now.

The two wanted to take advantage of the fact that the incident was not a big deal, but they didn't expect that Yamada was getting more and more crazy. It's okay not to mention those foreigners, but when he mentioned foreigners, he thought of the anger he had received all these years, and pulled out his waist Between the swords.

This time, Matsuo and Takahashi didn't dare to step forward. Yamada was crazy, but his martial arts were not bad. Not only was he the leader of the three of them, but he was also well-known in the samurai circle. Matsuo and Takahashi didn't want to To touch this mold.

But at this time, the two little girls selling grilled eel skewers were already terrified.

He even forgot to run away, and just stood there stupidly motionless, watching Yamada draw out his long knife, exuding a threatening cold light in the sun.

Yamada frowned, originally he just wanted to draw out his knife to scare the two brats in front of him, and watch them piss off, but now he regards the other party's motionless appearance as a silent struggle, and now he is drunk It hasn't passed yet, and I can't help recalling some bad memories.

He has reason to resent. As a samurai of the Changzhou Domain, he followed the radical Hisaka Xuanrui to King Jingqin three years ago. Suicide, and then the shogunate also joined forces with Britain, the United States, France, and the Netherlands to attack Shimonoseki, forcing the Changzhou domain to surrender, and Shinsaku Takasugi, one of the leaders of the Shogunate faction, was forced to wander. Naturally, the samurai who participated in the forbidden gate change had no good fruit to eat .

Therefore, Yamada draws the sword not only because of his drunkenness, but also because of his unfulfilled ambition. Seeing the two little ghosts in front of him, neither dodging nor dodging, and still "hardly resisting", he couldn't help but feel evil from his heart, and he wanted to swing the knife Really chop.

Zhang Heng frowned. He had nothing to do with these two girls who sold grilled eel skewers, and he had no interest in improving the law and order in Kyoto at the end of the Bakumatsu period. But after all, the other party was in trouble to avoid him, a "wicked person". Zhang Heng Heng also felt uncomfortable watching the two of them being hacked to death by a drunken samurai.

But just as he was about to draw his sword, his eyes moved, but he put down his hand again, and on the other hand, Yamada had already raised the sword in his hand amidst the exclamations of passers-by, but just when his sword was about to fall on Chiyo and her When the companion's head was on the ground, it was held back by a wooden knife.

"Who is here?" Yamada shouted loudly, blowing his beard and staring, while his chest was still heaving violently.

"Xiaoshan Dojo, Xiaoshanqian." The visitor replied with a crisp tone.

Contrary to the expectations of passers-by, it was a young woman who made the move at this moment. She was holding a wooden knife in one hand and the tuna she had just bought in the market in the other.
