I was a swordsman in ancient Japan

"You are very confident in Mamiya's character." Mucun raised his eyes and looked at Asai.

"Of course." Asai nodded, "Usually, Gamiya and I have cooperated and partnered the most times. I don't know how unfeminine Gamiya is?"

Mu Cun: "It seems that you are really confident in Mamiya's character."

"That's right." Asai, who is usually expressionless, had a rare confident smile on his face, "Let me just tell you that."

Speaking of this, Asai solemnly picked up the knife oil beside him.

"I'm so confident in Jiangong's conduct that I can pat my chest and say to you: If Jiangong comes back with a woman one day, I'll drink this sword oil on the spot."

Boom, boom, boom!

Just as Asai finished speaking, footsteps of "dong dong dong" suddenly sounded in the corridor outside the room.

"Senior Mucun! Senior Asai!"

Shimada yanked the paper sliding door open.

"Shimada, why are you in such a hurry?" Asai cast a puzzled look at Shimada.

"Senior Mamiya is back!" Shimada shouted in astonishment, "You may not believe that Senior Mamiya brought a young girl back!"

Shimada originally thought that after he uttered such explosive news, either Mucun or Asai would stand up immediately in shock.

However, the real scene presented in front of Shimada was that the two looked at him in shock.

Then they silently turned their attention to the bottle of knife oil in Asai's hand

Jiangong came back with Azhu and Vairocana who were successfully rescued.

Including Yuan Yi who was still drinking silently until Mamiya came back, everyone in the gourd house gathered together to listen to Mamiya's explanation of what he did yesterday and what happened to the girl Azhu.

Since he had to explain what happened to the girl A Zhu, he naturally couldn't avoid explaining his own life experience.

At this moment, for the first time, Mamiya confessed his life experience to the rest of the gourd house partners except Lin: Yoshitsune Yamada Asemon, the eldest son of Patriarch Yamada Asemon of the seventh generation.

The person who was supposed to inherit the title of Patriarch and become the Patriarch of the eighth generation Yamada Senemon.

"Mamiya-senpai, are you from the Yamada Asemon family?"

Among the people present, except for Yuan Yi who was relatively calm, as if he had already expected where Gamiya was from, the rest of the faces were filled with unstoppable shock.

"I'm sorry, I kept it from you for so long." Mamiya smiled at Shimada, "After all, for me, although there are good parts in the past, there are also many places that are not worth remembering."

Shimada and the others were only shocked for a moment by Mamiya's true identity.

After all, beside the time palace, there is a more interesting A Zhu.

"Your name is Azhu, right?" Lin, who was sitting right in front of Gamiya, turned her gaze to look at the 5-year-old girl sitting behind Gamiya.

After noticing Lin's gaze, Ah Zhu subconsciously hid behind the person who rescued her last night, his eyes were full of panic.

Now she was wearing the new clothes Yoshitomo prepared for him, which made her look a little better, but the panic in her eyes was not so easy to get rid of after she just escaped from hell.

Looking at Azhu who was full of horror, Lin pursed her lips, and after thinking for a moment, she said loudly to the people around her:

"You all go out first, so many people gather here, it will make her feel scared. Ah, Gamiya can stay."

Lin purposely kept Azhu's most trusted Gamiya, so that she would have a sufficient sense of security.

Everyone who knew Lin's intentions filed out, leaving only Lin, Jiangong, and Azhu in the room.

"Senior Asai, what's the matter with you?" As soon as he left the room, Shimada asked Asai next to him with a puzzled expression, "Why is his face so solemn all the time? Is there something wrong with your body?"

Shimada had noticed that Asai's complexion was very bad from just now, as if he was feeling unwell somewhere.

"Shimada."

Asai asked in a low voice.

"If you drink a bottle of knife oil, will you die?"

Shimada:? ? ?

After Yuanyi, Mucun and others left, Lin turned her gaze back to Azhu.

"Well, there's no one else here now. Just the three of us."

Lin is not a person with expressive expressions. Ninety percent of her expressions are expressionless throughout the day, but at this moment, she is trying her best to lift the corners of her mouth up, showing what she thinks is a friendly smile as much as she can.

"You don't need to be afraid. We are not bad people, and we will never do anything to you."

"I promise you: we will absolutely escort you all the way home afterward."

"But before that, can you please tell me what happened to you before, and how your body became amazingly resilient?"

Perhaps it was because Lin and she were both female, and she was relatively petite, so Lin gave A Zhu a sense of intimacy and security, and the uneasiness and fear in her eyes dissipated a little.

She raised her eyes and glanced at Gamiya who rescued her from hell last night, and the panic in her pupils dissipated slightly again.

"I, my name is Azhu from Osaka"

As soon as Ah Zhu opened his mouth, he spoke standard Kansai dialect.

With a trembling voice, she slowly explained her past.

Her past was not complicated, but it made Lin's brows slowly frown.

According to Azhu, she is the daughter of an ordinary craftsman in Osaka.

When returning home one evening, she suddenly heard hurried footsteps behind her. Before she could turn her head to see what was going on, she felt a heavy blow to the back of her neck and passed out. .

When he opened his eyes again, he found himself locked in a dark, prison-like place alone.

Not long after she woke up, two people entered the prison and forced-fed her a piece of meat the size of a fingernail. Because Ah Zhu never ate meat, she couldn't tell what kind of animal it was. of meat.

After force-feeding her the piece of meat, she was forced to stuff a pill with a strong medicinal taste into her mouth, forcing her to swallow it.

After being fed this piece of meat and that medicine, Ah Zhu felt very hot in his body, so hot that he felt as if his whole body was being burned on a fire.

After the hotness in his body faded away, Ah Zhu was surprised to find that his body possessed a terrifying resilience.

No matter what kind of injury occurs on the body, the injury will recover very quickly.When the injury recovers, the wound will not feel any pain, no pain, no itching, and the injury will recover silently.

Since eating the weird meat slices and pills, she hasn't been fed any strange things, nor has she been done anything.

Just like that, she was locked in the prison all the time. Occasionally, a few people would come and cut wounds on her body with knives, as if they were observing the recovery of her wounds and the speed of recovery.

The prison is dark and dark. I don’t know if it’s day or night. I can’t tell what time it is. Even if I cry and howl and beg to let her go home, no one cares about her. If she is too noisy, she will even be beaten severely. Fan, was warned not to make any more noise.

I don't know how long I was imprisoned, how my body became like this, and how long I will be imprisoned.

The only thing she knew was that the people in the prison called her "Ding Ling Er San".

Until one day, Ah Zhu smelled the smell and smell of thick smoke.

This is the characteristic smoke and stench of flames raging everywhere

Immediately afterwards, Ah Zhu saw a woman suddenly coming outside his prison door.

The woman covered herself tightly, only her eyes were exposed, so Ah Zhu couldn't see her face clearly, only from her voice, she could tell that she was very young.

The mysterious woman only said "Let's go" coldly to A Zhu, and then opened the prison door.

This young woman secretly released her, not, it should be said, released many people who were imprisoned in other prisons, including her.

Only then did Ah Zhu realize that there were so many people like her who were imprisoned in such a dark place.

If Ah Zhu remembers correctly, including her, there were about a dozen people who were rescued by the mysterious woman.

When they were first rescued, the mysterious woman gave them a small cloth bag one by one, and each cloth bag contained two hundred pennies.

Then, after escaping with the help of the mysterious woman, Azhu and the others found flames and thick smoke everywhere. Under the cover of the fire and led by the mysterious woman, they escaped from this dark place.

Ah Zhu remembered very clearly that they got out of a cave.As soon as I got out of the cave, I saw layers of mountains.

Before they had time to be happy, pursuers came behind them.

"You guys run separately, keep walking in that direction and you can reach the place where there are people. I will save you some trouble. I will try my best to lure your pursuers away." This was the last sentence Ah Zhu heard from the mysterious woman. When saying these words, the mysterious woman pointed in a certain direction.

Azhu and the others obeyed the order of the mysterious woman and ran away separately. Since then, Azhu has never seen the mysterious woman again.

Ah Zhu ran desperately until she couldn't even move a toe.

She was lucky that when she was too tired to move, there were no sounds of pursuers behind her.

Unfortunately, when she first started running away, there were a man and a woman who were about her age running in the same direction as her.But when Ah Zhu was too tired to move, the man and woman had disappeared.

It is not known whether they were exhausted, fell behind halfway, or ran to another road halfway.

In short, since then, Azhu has been walking aimlessly in this mountainous mountain by himself.

Although the mysterious woman had shown them the way before, Azhu, who had fled to a place where he couldn't even tell which direction was south, east, and north, unfortunately forgot which direction the mysterious woman was pointing at that time.

So, she could only move forward aimlessly.

Then, a lucky thing and a bad thing happened to Ah Zhu.

The lucky thing is that she walked aimlessly and managed to get out of the mountain. Just after she got down from the mountain, she found a village. Not far from here.

Azhu was just an ordinary 5-year-old girl. She didn't know what to do or where to go except to go home.

In order to get on the boat to Osaka, Azhu resolutely went to that port.

The current public security situation is generally not very good, but Azhu, who is alone, actually managed to get to that port smoothly.

Unfortunately, after coming to that port, she met unscrupulous ship merchants.

The ship merchant said that their ship was bound for Osaka, and they would let Azhu board the ship as long as they gave enough money.

A Zhu was not very experienced in the world, so she couldn't tell the difference between good and evil, so she foolishly gave most of the money that the mysterious woman gave her to this unscrupulous ship merchant.

This mouth claims that his ship is a ship merchant going to Osaka, but the destination of his ship is actually Edo

Azhu arrived in Edo in such a daze.

She has no culture and doesn't know how long it will take from Kii to Osaka. She didn't realize that she was cheated until she arrived at Edo Port.

She also didn't have the guts to argue with the vicious ship merchant, so she could only swallow the bitter fruit silently.

She wanted nothing more than to go home.

Unfamiliar with life and place in Edo, she had nowhere to go, so she could only pin her hopes on the government.I hope that people from the government can help her go home, or help her recover her money from that unscrupulous ship dealer.

As a result, she was pestered by two hooligans before she reached the door of the Edo Magistrate's Office.

Then, they ran into Wen Xian and Yi Chao who happened to be passing by here.

What happened after that need not be repeated.

The above is what happened to Azhu after he was kidnapped in Osaka.

The expressions of Lin and Jiangong are very complicated now. Azhu's experience is so tragic that neither of them know what kind of expression to show.

As for Azhu, who was recalling and telling her own story, her eye sockets had been red from just now.

The tragedy of her experience made even listeners like Lin feel moved.

Looking at the red-eyed A Zhu, who seemed to be crying at any moment, Lin sighed softly, then walked up to A Zhu, and then opened her arms like a mother bird opening her arms to protect her chick, and held A Zhu into the arms.

"It's all right." Lin gently patted the back of A Zhu's head with one hand, and caressed A Zhu's back with the other hand, "You have finished all the hardships you should have suffered now, and you will be fine from now on. "

Lin's consolation made Azhu's already fragile psychological defense slump in an instant.

"Wow wow wow wow!"

Azhu hugged Lin tightly, put her face on Lin's shoulder, and cried loudly.

Lin didn't shy away from Azhu's tears and snot that she wiped on her clothes, but continued to hug Azhu silently and pat the back of Azhu's head and back.

It wasn't until Azhu's mood gradually stabilized and she stopped crying that Lin let go of Azhu in her arms.

"Azhu, do you still remember the cave where you were imprisoned, where is it?" Lin suddenly asked, "Or you have a way to lead us along your escape route, return the same way, and find that Is it a cave?"

"I don't remember." Azhu shook his head, "After escaping, I ran aimlessly regardless of direction, so I can't take you back the same way and I don't remember where the cave is."

"That's all right." Lin smiled slightly at A Zhu.

Lin's smile at this time was far softer than the friendly smile she forced out just now.

"Thank you for your hard work. Do you want to go down and rest first? Is there anything you want to eat?"

Lin actually still has a lot of questions to ask that child.

For example, the taste and color of the meat and pills she was forced to eat.

But she also didn't want to exhaust the child with questioning in one go, so she decided to take her time and eat the meal one bite at a time.
