Swallow Back

Liu Yun nodded, and said again: "It's not a serious crime just to collect money secretly! Compared with the warriors and monks in other places, the monks of Yixiangzong may not be the most exploitative."

After hearing this, Kosuke Sawaki quickly explained seriously: "Besides accumulating money, the real evil of Monk Ichiko Zong lies in defrauding believers of their bodies and souls and using them in large-scale evil spells... We also have some clues about this matter!"

Liu Yun showed doubts on his face: "Since that's the case, why did you only talk about money-making at the conference just now?"

Sawaki Kosuke said with a wry smile: "Because only things that make money can be trusted by people. Accusing them of using the souls of believers, this kind of thing will only be regarded as a fantasy!"

Liu Yun heard the words and thought it was right: "It is true."

Kosuke Sawaki thought of something, nodded and sighed.

After pausing for a moment, Liu Yun said again: "Tell me about your real election team. You obviously want to fight against such an evil Yi Xiangzong, but the methods you use are so gentle, and you can only rely on reasoning... To be honest, although I don't like those who The offending members can understand a little bit."

Hearing this, Sawaki Hirosuke showed embarrassment, hesitated for a long time, and then slowly said: "When the Shinsengumi was founded, several adults determined this style of behavior. In fact, those several adults originally broke away from the Ichiko sect. It came out... I heard from them that Yixiangzong was originally a group of benevolent people who sincerely cared about the people, but because they were attacked by big names from all over the world, their style of acting in self-defense gradually changed, and they finally fell into evil ways."

Liu Yun came to a sudden: "So you think that even if it is for the purpose of justice, you can't use drastic means, otherwise it will definitely lead to evil results."

Sawaki Kosuke nodded firmly: "That's right! The 'Shinsengumi' calls itself the 'Shinsengumi' because our purpose is to correct the faults of the Ichiko sect and inherit the meaning of the sages. Even if the current Ichigo Sect is defeated, it will be nothing more than a new force with no difference."

When he was speaking, this handsome man showed an impassioned look on his face, which looked very majestic and upright, the kind that didn't have any sense of disobedience without adding special effects in a film with the main theme.

Liu Yun didn't feel the slightest aura of lying.

If you don't feel it, then you probably don't.

Because Liu Yun has all kinds of supernatural powers and extremely keen intuition, ordinary people can't hide their thoughts in front of him.

But it's not lying, and it doesn't necessarily mean telling the truth.

The Oda family sent so many ninjas to Long Island to investigate before, but all of them went wrong, either missing or turning into idiots and lunatics.Liu Yun vaguely felt that the reason was inseparable from this "true selection group".

If you continue to contact this Sawaki Kosuke, you may be able to figure out the reason.

At the same time, there may be an unprecedented dangerous situation.However, this did not make Liu Yun retreat, on the contrary, he looked forward to it.

……

After all, Kosuke Sawaki was seriously injured by two knives and two gunshots. After talking for so long, his complexion gradually turned pale, his breathing was uneven, and beads of sweat were permeating his forehead, so he leaned on the bed and apologized in a low voice: "Kojiro Sir, your other questions may take a while to be answered. I have already called just now, and someone will come over soon... Ah, please rest assured, this is someone you can trust, and it is absolutely impossible to be like Kiryu Soma and the others Same messy thoughts."

Liu Yun smiled calmly and nodded.

He felt at ease, not because he trusted Kosuke Sawaki, but because he felt that even if something went wrong, he could handle it.

That's the end of the business.

But at this moment, Jinghe Asagi and Akiyama Rinko suddenly moved from left to right, and Qiqi quietly grabbed Liuyun's clothes.

Looking back, the two ladies were anxious and hesitant to speak.

Of course Miss Jinghe is more serious.

Liu Yun knew what they were concerned about, and could see that the two ladies were embarrassed.

In this case, it is necessary for me to speak up in this case!

So, Liu Yun turned around again, and asked Sawaki Kosuke seriously: "Your name is the four characters of Sawaki Kosuke, right? Where does this Sawaki family originate from? Was it born here in Nagashima?"

Hearing this question, Sawaki Kosuke was at a loss, stunned, and after a while he replied: "No. I was originally from the Kanto region, but I fled to Kinki because of the war. I was only ten years old at that time, and unfortunately I was separated from my family. , wandered to Long Island alone..."

Hearing that Igawa Asaaki and Akiyama Rinko looked at each other, their expression changed.

Liu Yun's expression remained the same, and he continued to ask: "Who else was in your family before you separated? Can you tell us their names?"

Kosuke Sawaki was even more puzzled, frowning and hesitating for a long time before slowly saying: "My father's common name is 'Zongsuke', and another brother is called 'Kyosuke'. As for my mother's boudoir name, I'm sorry I can't disclose it..."

At this moment, Ihe Asahime suddenly took a big step back, cast her eyes in disbelief, and Akiyama Rinko's eyes were full of worry and helplessness.

Liu Yun didn't stop, and immediately asked the third question: "Excuse me, Mr. Sawaki Kosuke, are you married? Or have you made an agreement in this regard?"

Kosuke Sawaki finally couldn't help but shook his head and asked, "Why does Mr. Kojiro want to know this? It's a completely irrelevant topic!"

Liu Yun resolutely dismissed the other party's question: "Let's just treat it as the savior's idle curiosity. This is not a secret, so it's okay to make it public, right?"

"Okay..." Kosuke Sawaki didn't look very happy, but he still held back and said, "Since I joined the 'Shinsengumi' and faced a dangerous situation, I naturally don't want to think about marriage. But before my father There is a good friend whose name I have never heard of, only known as "Uncle Jing He", who happens to have a daughter. It seems that when our two families fled, we had an agreement that we would become in-laws after we settled down... This counts. ?"

When the words fell to the ground, Ms. Jinghe was shocked and almost fell to the ground. Akiyama Rinko hurriedly stepped forward to support her.

Liu Yun looked back and remained silent.

It seems...

This guy is really a surviving fiancée!

Kosuke Sawaki was very inexplicable at first, but after looking around for a while, he gradually showed a look of astonishment, as if he understood something.

Chapter 204 The Orientation of the Fiancé

On the windy and sandy Zhongshan Road, two short and thin pack horses each pulled a small cart piled up with clutter.

The wooden wheels creaked and rolled on the uneven ground.

The woman curled up in the car with her young child in her arms, staring at the rear with restless eyes from time to time.There was also a half-grown boy walking along the side listlessly.

Two travel-stained warriors walked ahead with swords and guns, their faces were exhausted, but they were still full of energy.

"Brother Jinghe, I think it's almost safe. Hojo's troops won't chase here. After all, we are not important people. Shouldn't they concentrate on arresting the leader of the Uesugi family if they have extra time?"

"...Well, what you said, Sawaki, is not bad, but you can't take it lightly. The Yamanaka Saishichiro who was killed by you in Kawagoe, although he looks ordinary, I heard that he is the other party's super-qualified senior minister or something..."

"The Hojo family's 'Grass Seven Family'! I also know...it's really a bit troublesome. If I knew that the leader of the Uesugi family is so unreliable, he can't even pay the commission. Why should I work so hard!"

"No way, we are from a small family without any connections. If we want to earn something by our own force, we can only risk our lives to gamble. In fact... if you didn't kill the other party's elder, you might as well... simply defect to Hojo Home is ready."

"Indeed! Only less than 1 people defeated the [-] coalition forces of Uesugi in Yamauchi. It seems that the Hojo family will have the final say in the future of the eight Kanto countries! But we can't predict this kind of thing in advance."

"Ugh……"

"Hi……"

The two warriors sighed a few times.

Then the old and mature one waved his hand, put the negative emotions behind him, and said boldly: "Okay, think about happy things. This time I was fortunate to get a letter of recommendation from Master Hongshan, and I was able to go to Hiei Mountain Enryakuji Temple Fangzhong, someone will support you in the future, so you don’t have to run around anymore.”

"Brother Jinghe said so." The young and handsome one also nodded, looking forward with longing eyes: "Although we have left our hometown, our ancestors should feel relieved to be able to gain the status of a famous temple! At least there will be more incense offerings in the future."

"Hmm... I still have a lot of things to do after I settle down. By the way, Brother Sawaki, when it comes to incense, I'm almost forty and I still only have two daughters, so I'll just do what I said before, Give your son a share?"

"Haha... It's okay. It's just that I only have two sons, Kyosuke and Kosuke. The world is so chaotic, and I don't have the confidence to raise both sons safely. If something goes wrong with one of them, I have no spare power." Help!"

"Heh... Sawaki, you boy... Anyway, your two sons are about the same age as my eldest daughter Asahi. Even if one of them has a problem, the remaining one will marry her. Then let the young couple work harder How about giving birth to a few and choosing the one who will inherit the Ihe family?"

"Brother, if you don't think there is a problem, I have no objection! Anyway, you have always been the one paying attention. If I were the only one, I would never have thought that a monk I met by chance would be an eminent monk of the Tendai sect, and it would be even more impossible to find refuge in Mt. Hiei. Enryaku Temple is such a good door..."

"Then it's settled."

"A word is settled!"

……

Thinking of the old events of that year, Azahime Ikawa suddenly trembled violently, her limbs became weak and her eyes lost their focus. If it wasn't for Rinko Akiyama's support, she might have fallen to the ground.

Kosuke Sawaki may have also recalled that scene, and a look of strong surprise immediately appeared on his handsome face.

At the same time, out of the corner of his eyes, he saw Liu Yun who called himself "Kojiro of Master House".

Liu Yun's expression at the moment is friendly, elegant and easy-going, without any trace of hostility.

However, for some unknown reason, Sawaki Kosuke felt an emotion of extreme fear emerge spontaneously from his heart, as if he was a little hamster caught in the hands of an old cat and would devour it at any time.

Just now, when the deputy and the team members "knocked up", when the blade and the money were put on the neck, the reaction was not that serious!

From the reactions of "Master House Kojiro" and the female relatives around him, Kosuke Sawaki has already guessed something.

For various reasons, he expressed his attitude very decisively: "Although my father once made a marriage contract with Uncle Jinghe for his children, I just feel that it was an old thing many years ago, and there is no need to care too much. We should pay more attention to the current situation. Yes. I have already found a worthy goal in the 'Shinsengumi'. As for the girl from the Jinghe family, I don't even remember her appearance. Maybe she already has a happy family..."

Kosuke Sawaki seemed to be under a lot of pressure. After speaking eloquently, sweat broke out on his forehead, and a little blood oozes from the bandage.

Until Liu Yun nodded slightly, and said "I see".

This guy just relaxed a lot and re-entered a state of peace of mind.

After hearing this, Rinko Akiyama suddenly turned from worry to joy, while Ms. Jinghe's expression suddenly became extremely complicated, which was a superimposed state of happiness and disappointment.

Kosuke Sawaki glanced at the two ladies for a while, and then retracted immediately.

Liu Yun happened to see it.

There is no way not to see it, after all, they are staying in a small cave, and everyone's words and deeds cannot be hidden.

Then I discovered that Kosuke Sawagi looked at Asahime Igawa and Rinko Akiyama without any covetousness in his eyes, and looked quite clear and simple.

This is a bit strange.

Food and drink, men and women, people's great desires exist, no matter how honest a gentleman's basic physical desires are, they cannot be avoided, at most they can restrain themselves.

It's not normal for a normal man to have no reaction when he sees beauties of the level of Asagi Ikawa and Rinko Akiyama, unless it's because of physiological incompatibility or a different orientation.

There are all kinds of birds in the forest, and it's not surprising that people have their own ambitions. 1

……

After a while, a slight knocking sound gradually came from outside the cave.

Kosuke Sawaki listened to the rhythm of the voice, and immediately beamed with joy, and said: "The people who are supporting me have arrived!"

Liu Yun nodded, but at the same time he also clenched the handle of the knife, secretly on guard.

After a while, six or seven black-clothed warriors with no characteristics appeared in front of them. They should be ordinary members of the "Shinsengumi".

Then there was a gray-clothed man with delicate and immature features, a cold and indifferent expression, and walked in with his arms crossed.

Seeing this guy, Sawaki Kosuke was overjoyed and flattered, and immediately jumped up from the bed regardless of his injuries, and rushed forward, incoherently excited: "Master Okita! Why are you... You came in person? I thought... I thought it was just..."

"Don't talk nonsense——" The handsome samurai known as "Master Okita" glanced expressionlessly, and said lightly: "If you die, you can't pay back what you owe me, so I have received the highest-level distress signal, so I naturally want to take a look."

"Yes... yes..." Kosuke Sawaki felt ashamed immediately after hearing this: "I'm not doing my job well, and I've caused you to worry..."

It seems that this "Master Okita" should be the upper echelon of the Shinsengumi.

Liu Yun glanced at it for a while, and felt that this person's martial arts skills should be good, even if he was not his opponent, at least he could compete with Miss Jinghe a few times.

At the same time, I also found that this Sawaki Kosuke looked at "Master Okita" in a rather innocent way.

In addition to the respect and love that subordinates have for their superiors, servants for their masters, and apprentices for their teachers, it seems to be more... a kind of admiration and nostalgia between the opposite sex?

In the words of the 21st century, it is the gesture of licking a dog and meeting a goddess.

Thinking about it this way, I was horrified.
