Chapter 1346 Navel Hair Village

Seeing this scene, Fang Linyan thought to himself that the Japanese are indeed a complicated nation, and they will only submit to power. As long as you show your strength, he will immediately act as obedient as a pug.

However, Fang Linyan looked at the things that Hattori Kazuyoshi took out, except for a rope hook and two smoke bombs, there was nothing to look at.

The rope hook is a pure auxiliary prop, which can be used 10 times. After use, you can specify the location, then throw the rope hook, and then pull people over. It is really good for flying over eaves and walls.

Not to mention the smoke bomb, but it also has an additional special effect (confusion): once ordinary soldiers and people are exposed to the smoke, they will smell a special smell, and then have a strong dizziness, and run around in a daze.

Immediately afterwards, Fang Linyan's eyes rested on a few crumpled Japanese coins. He counted them painstakingly, and almost laughed out loud. To be honest, such a ninja is really not bad in strength. How many yen?

It turned out to be an out-and-out poor man! !
But it seems that this guy is quite principled, don't look at Hattori's one benefit, three downs, five divisions and two being beaten to the ground by Fang Linyan.

However, in order to plot against him, Fang Linyan used the power of legendary weapons + artifacts. How many people can resist such a luxurious combination of punches?

Fang Linyan said to Hattori Kazuyoshi:

"I ask myself that I don't have any enmity with you, so you should be just a knife being used, so who asked you to kill me?"

Hattori Kazuki sighed and said:
"I really don't know about this. I came to Nagasaki yesterday to buy some items, and then I had a drink in the dark house where ninjas usually gather. The bartender told me about this task."

"Because this mission seems relatively simple, it only needs to assassinate a person, and it is a foreigner, and the reward has reached a good figure of 100 yen, so I accepted the order."

After Fang Linyan heard the "amazing" figure of 100 yen, he felt an indescribable complex emotion in his heart:

"Damn it, I'm only worth 100 yen?"

Of course, he would definitely not say this sentence, but looked at Hattori Kazuyoshi and said:

"So, only the bartender knows the commissioner of the task?"

Hattori Kazuyoshi nodded and said:
"Yes!"

Fang Linyan pondered for a long time and said:

"What about the information about my assassination?"

Hattori Kazuyoshi said:

"Rarely, because the information was provided with a magic lottery, which said that I should arrive here at [-]:[-] in the afternoon, and then stay for half an hour. After killing two men, I can successfully claim the bounty. "

Fang Linyan said in shock:
"Is that okay?"

Hattori Kazuyoshi said:

"Yes, this is called a reward with a magic lottery. Most of the time the information on it is reliable. Of course, there are also a few times when it is unreliable. Because of this, this kind of magic lottery reward will choose to pay half of it in advance. bounty."

Having said that, he said sadly:

"It is precisely because of this that I chose this task, because the young master has had a fever for three days and has started convulsions. If I can't bring the medicine back, I will violate the old master's will and do some To tarnish the name of the Niwa family, go directly to robbery or steal."

In Japan, it is very common for several generations of retainers to serve the same family. This habit even continued in later Japanese companies. Employees seldom change jobs. Once they enter a certain company, they will work for it for life. Even if it is unsuccessful or even marginalized in it, unless the company goes bankrupt.

Of course Fang Linyan would not believe his words, and said directly:

"Since you only have a few yen left in your money, you must have bought all the medicines. Show me the medicines?"

Hattori Kazuichi brought out a large pack of medicine, which exuded a strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine. Fang Linyan was a sick child a few years ago, and he did not eat less folk remedies. As the saying goes, a long-term illness makes a good doctor. , bezoar and so on, it is indeed for reducing fever, so he nodded and said:

"Since you often go to that izakaya, you must be able to release information about the assassination?"

Hattori Kazuyoshi said:

"Of course."

Fang Linyan nodded and said:
"Very well, if you do one thing for me, I will let you go."

Hattori Kazuyoshi said:

"Please speak, Your Excellency."

Fang Linyan thought for a while, and took out a thick stack of Japanese yen banknotes from his pocket, about five to six thousand yuan, and then wrote down a list:
"Since that izakaya allows you to come and go, it must be from the shogunate. I want you to help me put a reward on killing these people on the list. These are the lackeys of the Reformation! If you can do this, list For every person who dies, I will give you a reward of [-] yen."

In this chaotic era, although the reformers gained power, the assassination of their officials was actually a very common thing.

In 1878, Okubo Toshimichi, who was already in power at that time and almost had the power of prime minister, was assassinated by five samurai headed by Shimada Ichiro. This was the head of the government.

In 1869, Yokoi Kousu and Omura Masujiro were assassinated by shogunate samurai.

In 1871, Masomi Hirosawa was assassinated for "returning the registration book".
Iwakura Tomomi was also assassinated in 1873 for framing Saigo Takamori.

Therefore, Fang Linyan's request did not make Hattori Kazuyoshi feel unacceptable.

The social environment at that time was like this. Taking China’s national conditions as an example, it was like during the Republic of China, when Pu Yi and several former princes of the Manchu Qing Dynasty sought assassins to assassinate high-ranking Beiyang officials. Of course.

Hattori Kazuyoshi looked at the list Fang Linyan took out, and said seriously:
"Are you sure they are all lackeys of the reformists?"

Fang Linyan said:

"I'll give you a chance to investigate. If anyone on the list is not, then you don't have to do it, but if what I said is true, you have to swear by the name of the Niwa family, you will definitely go all out!"

Hattori Kazuichi thought for a while and said:
"it is good!"

While Hattori was thinking, Fang Linyan had already opened the progress bar of the war and was watching closely.

For him, the appearance of Hattori opened up a new way of thinking for him, which can be used as a free move, and more importantly, the cost of using this guy is very small!After Fang Linyan took advantage of the Sino-Japanese War to make a fortune, the constraints of money on him were already very small.

As a result, when Hattori Kazuyoshi nodded, Fang Linyan found that the progress bar of the war had actually increased by 0.03!This is enough to show that in the prediction of the space, Hattori Kazuyoshi's position and ideas at this time will lead to the decline of the national power of the entire country of Japan!

This shows that Hattori Kazuyoshi did not intend to water Fang Linyan, but was seriously considering this matter.

After all, Fang Linyan's request was not outrageous. To a certain extent, he also hated these reformers, let alone 1 yuan if everyone was killed?
Now that Hattori Kazuyoshi has proved his sincerity, Fang Linyan stepped forward, pulled the predatory fang from his vest, and then remembered something:
"Do you know where the navel hair village is?"

Hattori Kazuichi said in surprise:
"Are you going to Navel Hair Village?"

Fang Linyan nodded:

"Well, go find someone."

Hattori Kazuyoshi said:

"It's better not to go if you don't have to, because it's very dangerous, almost daunting."

Fang Linyan frowned and said:

"Is there some kind of dragon's pool and tiger's lair? The guards are very strong?"

Hattori Kazuyoshi said:

"That's not true, you misunderstood, it's just that the people living there are all patients suffering from serious diseases. The original umbilical hair village was established more than 70 years ago. At that time, the Portuguese brought a terrible disease called leprosy."

"They infected the prostitutes with the disease, and it spread rapidly, and finally it became a terrible disaster, when the daimyo who ruled Nagasaki even ordered the beheading of the sick people, and all the corpses were burned, That’s what stopped it.”

"However, this daimyo's most beloved son also contracted leprosy during the slaughter. Daimyo was reluctant to attack him, so he established a navel hair village in the middle of the mountain, and then let him go in to fend for himself, and entered with him. Yes, and eight loyal retainers."

"Every once in a while, the daimyo would send people to send food and medicinal materials. Six people in Navel Hair Village survived, but their illnesses did not recover, but they did not deteriorate. As a result, two years later, another There was a plague, so the daimyo sent those patients who had no cure and seemed to survive to the navel hair village."

"As the number of patients in Umbilical Hair Village increased and died, a cemetery appeared next to it, and the poor gradually buried their dead here. Umbilical Hair Village has become a terrible place."

After hearing this, Fang Linyan said:

"It turns out that this kind of place is not dangerous as long as it is well protected. Please show me the way. I will go in and find someone and come out."

Hattori Kazuyoshi said:

"it is good."

Under the guidance of Kazuyoshi Hattori, Fang Linyan hurried to the side, and on the way, he climbed over a hill with a height of 300 meters, and from the hill, he could overlook the whole of Nagasaki.

At this time, you can see that in the small bay four or five kilometers northwest of Nagasaki, there is a gathering place that looks like a small town. Although Fang Linyan has stayed in Nagasaki for so many days, he has not been there yet. , the fundamental reason is that this place is in the opposite direction from Nagasaki Naval Port.

Looking from the top of the hill at this time, one can see that this small town is full of people, and it looks quite prosperous, and it even feels much richer than several commercial streets in Nagasaki.Fang Linyan said to Hattori Kazuyoshi:

"Where is that place?"

Hattori said in surprise:
"There is a Chinese house? Don't you know?"

Fang Linyan was stunned for a moment, but soon realized that Japan's Edo shogunate implemented a country-locking policy in the 17th century (so Asian countries basically synchronized their death), and Nagasaki became the only window to communicate with the outside world.

At that time, although China’s Ming and Qing Dynasties also required that "slabs should not go into the sea", everyone knew this policy. Regardless of whether it was under control, the maritime trade in the Ming Dynasty was actually very developed. Several big pirates Zheng Zhilong and others could even Compete against a maritime power like Portugal.

Therefore, the Japanese shogunate also knew that these Ming people could not be provoked, so they privately allocated a piece of land in Nagasaki for Chinese merchants to come and live here.

Fang Linyan looked at the bustling Chinese houses in the distance, and his eyes narrowed. The scene in front of him suddenly reminded him of a Buddhist scripture:

"All premeditated dharmas are like dreams and bubbles, like dew and electricity"

At this time, he was also feeling temporarily, and felt that it was important to do business. After taking a second look, he continued to go to Navel Hair Village. About two hours later, Fang Linyan arrived here. He bowed slightly to Fang Linyan and said:

"Your Excellency, my little master is still seriously ill, and I must leave."

Fang Linyan nodded and said:
"Yes, you can give me a token so that I can contact you in the future."

Hattori Kazuyoshi nodded, handed Fang Linyan something that looked like a piccolo, and said:
"As long as you blow this bug shaker here at Dejima Pier in Nagasaki, someone will come to you soon."

Fang Linyan nodded, and when Hattori Kazuyoshi turned to leave, he suddenly said:

"One more thing. I'm a trustworthy person. What I pay attention to is not to doubt the person I use, but not to use the person I suspect."

"Mr. Hattori, you came to kill me originally, and there is no grievance or hatred between us. Even if I kill you in reverse, it is reasonable, don't you think so?"

Hattori Kazuyoshi nodded and said:
"Yes."

Fang Linyan spread his hands and said:

"However, after listening to what you told me, I think your loyalty is very great. Not only did I not kill you, but I also gave you a large sum of money. I trust you enough, right?"

Hattori Kazuyoshi said:

"Correct."

Fang Linyan then said grimly:

"Therefore, if you betray my trust and even turn against me afterwards, then Mr. Hattori, unfortunately, you have provoked a very powerful enemy for your lord! I hope you will do well."

Hattori's expression changed again, he bowed deeply to Fang Linyan, and then left directly.

After Hattori Kazuyoshi left, Fang Linyan summoned Laming out.

When he left before, he directly told Laming to stay there for a while, and find an opportunity to automatically return to the Kingdom of God, because Fang Linyan's goal had been achieved at that time, and Fukushima, one of the target characters, had formed a confrontation with Dongxiang. well situation.
That means the most ideal situation--the layout of killing with a borrowed knife has been completed, Dong Xiangjing's sharp knife has been unsheathed, and he has taken over Fukushima over there. You can still put all this aside and sit firmly on the Diaoyutai.

The latest news that La Ming brought to Fang Linyan was shocking. Fukushima was actually dead! !
