"Brat, you're risking your life!"”
"Ghost mermaid, enough!" Weasel suddenly shouted in a low voice," Let's go!”
Kisame and Shark raised their twisted muscles, turned around and said,""Brat, I'll let you off first. I'll reserve your life first!”After saying that, he and Weasel left in a flash and disappeared without a trace.
I stood where I was and watched them leave with a cold smile. I squeezed out a sentence from the corner of my mouth."Ghost mermaid, you're dead! Your life is also in my hands!" After saying that, I turned around and returned to the town. Weasel, you're very lonely!
He was speechless for a night.
I got up at dawn and hurried on my way. I didn't enter Daming City until the sun was about to set in the afternoon. This city was called the " Fire Domain " and was the capital of the Fire Country. It used to be the residence of the general, but now it was the territory of the Daimyo.
After entering the city, the wooden leaf on my forehead was very eye-catching. There were people from the Daming Mansion waiting for me and led me into the Daming Mansion. First of all, he had to meet the Fire Country's boss in name! Daimyo was a middle-aged man in his fifties. He was very fat and his round body was curled up in a chair. His thin eyes revealed a faint divine light. Hehe, he was also a rather shrewd old man!
"Koba Ninja Uchiha Hitomi greets you!”With my current status, it is necessary to pay attention to etiquette.
Daimyo dragged his fat body and stood up with difficulty. He said politely to me,"Good, good! That was great! I'll be at ease if Mu Ye comes! " Sigh, you don't know? I'm dying of anxiety. The Nation Armament is the national treasure of our Fire Country. If I lose it, how am I supposed to face my ancestors?"”
I also have to mean it, don't I? I immediately said," Don't worry, Daming. I'll complete the mission on behalf of Muye. I'll definitely find the murderer and help you solve your problem! Mu Ye was Daimyo's most powerful backer!”
Since he had already said this, Daimyo was naturally happy."Hehe, alright! Then I'll leave this matter to you. I believe that Muye's ninjas will definitely be able to do this well!”The old man gave me a hint. He believes in me and thinks highly of me. Let me do my best.
Daming's head guard took me on a tour of Daming Mansion on behalf of Daming, and finally arranged for me to stay in a guest room in the west wing. The head of the guards was Yoshizawa Eagle, a retainer of the Daimyo. He was a swordsman and was said to be the top young master under the Daimyo. His master, Yoshizawa Ren, was the imperial swordmaster of the Daimyo and the top warrior of the older generation in the Fire Country. Hehe, they were all famous, but he didn't know how they compared to ninjas. However, in my mind, the Japanese samurai are the kind of blockheads who only pay attention to the spirit of samurai.
"Mr. Tong, you can stay here for now. I'll bring you back tomorrow to take a look at the mission!”Yoshizawa Eagle bowed to me.
I nodded." See you tomorrow, Brother Yoshizawa!"”
He turned to leave, and I watched him until he disappeared from my sight. This Yoshizawa Eagle was not simple. His right hand never left the longsword at his waist, ready to draw his sword at any time. Moreover, his hilt was very long, almost as long as the sword body. It seemed that he was a swordsman from the Japanese Isuke, also known as the Sword Drawing Style. He relied on the impact of drawing his sword to kill the enemy in one fell swoop. In that case, his master was the current sect master of Ju He Sect!
They were not disturbed that night, but something happened after daybreak.
Just as the sky brightened, Yoshizawa Eagle stood at my door."Mr. Tong, I have bad news. Last night, another national artifact, the Grand Ceremony of Artifacts, was stolen. There were no traces left at the scene.”(Tai Guangshi: The blade is 66.1CM long, the curve of the blade is large, and the shape is very bold.) In the later period of Heian, it was made by the knife-maker of Chikugo Kingdom, Mitsuke Tentai Mitsuyo. It was originally owned by the Ashikaga family of the Muromachi general, but it fell into the hands of Hideyoshi during the Momoyama era. Later, Hideyoshi gave it to the Maeda Toshika family.）
It was another famous saber in the Taiguang Era of the Great Ceremony of Names and Artifacts! The name of the Fire Country was probably about to cry!
Daimyo was waiting for me in the hall. When he saw me, he shouted,"Mr. Tong, another Nation Armament of our Fire Country has been stolen. You have to help me get it back! Our Fire Country has three Nation Armaments, which are considered the foundation of our country. The Great Ceremony of Items, the Soul of Budu, and the Dragonfly Cut have been passed down since the ancient Warring States Period. They are the symbols of the Fire Country. Now that two of them are missing, the Fire Country is in danger!”(Famous Spear-Dragonfly Cut (A famous spear made by Masamasa Fujiwara. The handle is 13 feet (about 390cm) long, the blade is 1.4 inches and 2 minutes (about 43cm) long, and the total length is 4m10 cm.) It got its name because a dragonfly stopped at the tip of the spear and was cut in half.
Looking at his tearful appearance, it was as if his biological father had died. I could only reply," Please don't worry, Daming. I'll go check it out now. I must find the two stolen national artifacts!"”
The place where the Nation Armament is stored is the Fire Country's national treasury. This place is heavily guarded. I knew at first glance that it was definitely done by a mole. Otherwise, it would be impossible for someone to steal the Nation Armament without alerting anyone. It seems that the third generation was right. There was something wrong with the descendants of the daimyo! With Daimyo's shrewdness, it was impossible for him not to notice this. He gave the mission to Mu Ye to use Mu Ye to kill so that he could clear his name! What a wishful thinking!
The entrance of the treasury was heavily guarded, and it seemed that someone was already inside to check on the situation. I looked at Yoshizawa Eagle, who was leading the way, and he smiled awkwardly."The person inside is my eldest senior brother. He is usually in charge of the defense of the Daming Residence, so he is also investigating this matter. Yes, he is, Eldest Young Master's man…"
" Oh…" I understood a little when I heard the last sentence."How many young masters are there in your name?"
"The three of you, yes, but the third young master is only twelve years old, so he doesn't have much power."”
I nodded and suddenly asked,"Then, which young master do you belong to?"”
"Erm, I'm Third Young Master's friend…" Ji Ze Ying was stunned for a moment before he replied.
Oh? Third Young Master? A twelve-year-old kid could take in the number one expert of the younger generation of the Daming Mansion as a friend and minister. This young master was not simple! It seemed that Daimyo wanted to borrow Mu Ye's hand to help him choose his successor!
Just as Yoshizawa Eagle and I were conversing, a group of people walked out from the treasury. The person at the front was a middle-aged man in a gray warrior suit. He had an angry expression on his face as he walked and scolded the guards behind him."What are you all doing? Did the Daming Manor raise you for nothing? Under such defense, the Nation Armament would still be stolen! Do you still want your heads?"
"Yoshizawa Eagle greets Eldest Senior Brother!" Yoshizawa Eagle took a step forward and bowed.
The grey-robed warrior nodded. His gaze swept over my forehead and his expression darkened."Why are Muye's people here? Since when did the hands of the Wooden Leaf Village reach into the Daming Mansion?”
Heh, not popular!
Yoshizawa Eagle stepped forward and said," Eldest Senior Brother, he was entrusted by Daimyo to help us find the stolen national artifact!"”
"What help?!" The gray-robed warrior waved his sleeve. Mu Ye and our Daming Manor have an agreement that we won't interfere with each other! Therefore, this is our own business, we don't need Muye's people to cause trouble! Moreover, the Daming Residence is not safe recently. Little brat, be careful of your life! Humph!" With that, he led his men away.
"How impressive! Brother Yoshizawa, his status in the Daming Prefecture isn't low, right?”I asked playfully as I watched him leave.
Yoshizawa Ying smiled bitterly." Eldest Senior Brother is Master's first disciple. His name is Yoshizawa Mitsui. He's one of the strongest and has a very high status here. Even his name is very polite to him, so his temper is a little arrogant.”
I shook my head and smiled." Alright, there's no need to speak up for him. Let's go in and take a look."”It seemed that the Eldest Young Master's power was considered number one.
There was a secret room in the innermost part of the treasury that stored the national weapons. There were three shelves, and now there was only a long spear that was shining coldly. This was the remaining famous spear, Dragonfly Cut! The other two shelves were empty. I looked around and saw a mark on the upper left corner. It was very small. Without ninja training, one would not be able to notice it. As expected, it was a mole. With that, I chuckled and turned to Yoshizawa Eagle."Alright, let's go back. There's no need to look around here!”
