Smelting and Exploding the Heavens

Chapter 25 The Ronin's Determination

Although Jin Jingjing saved most of the elderly, weak, women and children in the village by himself, a fire still burned down the village.

The villagers hugged each other worriedly, and after discussing, they decided to go down the mountain together to find the men who were working down the mountain.

Let's move completely in the future. The Yuan army allows them to live in the city, and even distributes land to those who don't have land. Maybe there is new hope there.

The old lady next door was still trying to persuade Chu Ji, "Chu Ji, it is impossible for us common people to be with their samurai, and the samurai can only marry women from the Wu family or the Gongqing family.

As a mountain dweller, you didn't even have the right to live in the castle town in the past, so you are not worthy of admiring that person.

Live in the castle town with your father, or take some fields to make a living. Marrying a farm boy will definitely treat you well. "

Chu Ji shook her head, "Grandma, please tell my father, when I send Mr. Jingjing away from Kyushu, I will come back to look for him."

The old lady could only shake her head, told her to be careful, and followed the villagers down the mountain.

Kagami Jin fixed the wound again. Now that Kyushu had completely fallen, he had to go north to Shikoku to Kinki.

Jin Jingjing really didn't expect that Fan Zhuoyuan's army was so powerful that it completely defeated the second Dazai in such a short period of time.

Now, as a ronin, he has no way to fight against such a powerful enemy.

He intends to go to the Ichijo Temple of Fahua Mountain in Kinki Harima to find his master, and then practice to improve his strength.

While thinking, Chu Ji came over with dry food.

"Mr. Jingjing, the villagers have already left, let's go down the mountain too."

Jing Jingren looked at each other in surprise, "Miss Chu Ji, why don't you go with them, if you stay with me, you will be hunted down by Yuan Kou all the time, I can't protect you now."

Chu Ji turned her eyes to the side, "Because you are still wanted by the Yuan army, I can cover you. I have a household registration and I am a weak woman. If you pretend to be a couple with me, they will relax their vigilance..."

Jin Jingjing thought for a while, and now it seems that this is the only way to leave Kyushu Island safely, so he agreed.

After going down the mountain, the two went through a lot of hardships.

Now Fan Zhuoyuan has promulgated sword hunting orders and military ban orders in the occupied areas, prohibiting unofficial personnel from carrying collection weapons, even short-handed soldiers are absolutely not allowed!
Even the former samurai must take the initiative to hand in the samurai sword, otherwise the whole family will be killed.

Although it aroused great resistance, it was also forcibly suppressed by extremely cruel means.

Jing Jingren fought with others many times. Fortunately, his martial arts was superb, and he had done a lot of chivalry in the past, and he was helped by some businessmen and people who sympathized with him. A private port, take a fishing boat to the north and go to Kinki.

Kagami Hitoshi was supposed to be separated when Hatsuhime was sent out to sea, but the land was too chaotic. Once encountering the Yuan army, samurai or robbers, Hatsuhime, a weak woman, had absolutely no ability to resist, so she simply took her with her.

Chu Ji scooped up the sea water with her hands, quietly looked at Jin Jingjing and asked, "Mr. Jingjing, who are you looking for when you go to Kyoto this time?"

Kagami Jin said while rowing, "Go to my master."

"Mr. Kagami's master? That sword must be very strong."

Jin Jingjing said with a smile: "He was born in Kashima, traveled all over Japan when he was young, and challenged many sword dojos without losing a single one.

However, he also offended many people because of this. He often spent his middle age in hunting, and in killing and being killed, he sharpened an unparalleled killing sword.

He kept killing until no one dared to chase him down anymore. As for how good his sword skills were, it was enough to see that all the people who killed him in the past had passed away, and he was still alive. "

Chu Ji couldn't help but wonder, "Then with your master's strength, can you defeat the leader of Yuan Kou..."

Jing Jingren's voice was suddenly a little hoarse, and he said: "His name is Fan Zhuoyuan, even if he is my master, I can't guarantee it.

Master is already very old. When I was 16 years old, he was already 70 years old...and I was also the last closed disciple he accepted.

Now he lives in seclusion in the Yicheng Temple of Fahua Mountain in Harima Country, and becomes a monk with ordained ordained monk. His Dharma name is Nian Ami Ciyin. "

It is rumored that Kagai Hitoshi was a teacher at the age of 16, which is similar to that of the Central Plains, which is enough to show his high talent.

Chu Ji said: "Then your master is over 80 years old now?"

Jin Jing nodded and said: "Yes, even a swordsman like him has already lost his energy at this age. Although he is not able to get close by ordinary swordsmen, he no longer has the strength of his youth.

Sometimes I really envy the martial arts inheritance in the Central Plains, which can accumulate true energy all year round. Even though I am very old and my physical vitality is not as good as before, I can still stand out from the crowd in terms of internal strength. "

Saying that, Kagai Jin looked at the continuous mountains on the shore of Harima Country.

"My elder brother Chohide Hojo inherited the mantle of the master, opened a swordsmanship hall under the Ichijo Temple, and officially established the master's school of swordsmanship, called Ichidou-ryu!
On the battlefield, beheading or being beheaded is decided in an instant, so the first blow is usually also the last blow.

One-knife style is to use the most powerful force to completely crush the opponent in the first blow. "

Hatsuhime remembered that when Kagami Jin fought against those warriors who turned into robbers, his shots were basically one-hit kills, and immediately deeply understood the meaning of the one-shot style.

"Mr. Jingjing, is your elder brother stronger than you?"

Jing Jingren smiled and said, "This, I am afraid that the correct answer can only be found in the heart of the master."

After the two landed, faced with interrogation by the shogunate samurai, Kagai Hitoshi bribed them with two silver ingots and was successfully released.

After finding an inn to rest for the night, I rushed to Fahua Mountain.

There is an endless flow of people on the mountainside. Even in this time of war, there are still many people going to the mountain to pay respects.

Many of them were warriors in Taoist uniforms, and they went to the mountains early in the morning.

There is a kendo gym located in a secluded place here, before Jingjing Ren and Chu Ji could get to the vicinity, they heard the sound of sword training coming from inside, it was very loud and intense.

Kagami Jin nodded to Hatsuhime, and said, "This is the kendo gym opened by my elder brother Hojo Naghide."

When the two came to the door, Jing Jingren reported his family name and identity, and the disciple guarding the door hurriedly reported to the museum owner.

Hojo Nagahide came out with his disciples immediately. This is a middle-aged man with a strong figure, his height is comparable to that of Kagami Jin, and he is also comparable to the Central Plains people. He is already a giant in Japan.

But he was stronger than Jin Jingjing, and the sword on his waist was longer and wider.

When he came to the door, he embraced Jing Jingren's shoulders with both hands very enthusiastically, "Since the Yuan invaded, Master and we have missed you very much!"
