Butterfly [The Great Austrian Woman Version]

A group of 30 people got closer and closer. When they saw Raikata and Arima in Taniguchi clearly, their legs were a little weak because they saw the swords in their hands.In this era, the sword is a symbol of status. These two people are either samurai or ronin. Whether it is the former or the latter, they cannot afford to provoke them.The former is honorable, while the latter is desperate.Originally, these people were passionate, but when they came to them, it was as if someone had poured cold water on them.Things like gathering crowds to make troubles are all done in one go, and then fade away.They looked at Lai Fang's cold eyes, and many of them didn't even have the courage to step forward, so they thought of retreating.

"Hmph, what a coincidence that there are two adults here?" Someone in the crowd muttered something in a low voice, which happened to be heard clearly by everyone present.Lai Fang glanced at the man quickly, the man lowered his head and fell silent.But the leader, who brought a group of people over the mountains and ridges to come here, is not willing to go back so vaguely.Boldly stepped forward, bowed to the two and said, "I have seen the two adults. I don't know why the two adults are here, and whether they have been deceived by the villain."

Lai Fang looked directly into her eyes, and the man lowered his head guiltily, and continued, "The people who live in this valley are originally farmers, relying on their ability to identify some medicinal herbs, they self-medicate. It's nothing, but I heard that they Recently, he began to treat patients with erythema. This place is at the upper air outlet, and we are on the same mountain with him, eating water and drinking wind at the same place. I am really worried, so I came here to verify it.”

When she was talking about her acne, she took a sneak peek at Lai Fang, seeing that her expression hadn't changed, she was secretly resentful, it seemed that Lai Fang knew about it.This person guessed why Lai Fang was here, was he taking advantage of the people in the valley or just passing by here.After she finished speaking, she looked at Lai Fang tentatively, and said, "I wonder if the two adults can make it easier for us to go in and have a look."

Lai Fang hated their cunning in his heart, if he let them in, why would he stand here, after such a long time, he didn't move a single step, they dared not go forward, but they also refused to retreat.

Seeing Lai Fang like this, the man gritted his teeth and said, "Your Excellency, you know that the two people who came to ask for help a few days ago were 'Zui Duo'."

Seeing that Lai Fang was as immobile as a mountain, the crowd began to chatter, and the first voice said in a strange way, "I think they not only know, but they may have enjoyed it too. If they didn't get their benefits, then Why do you embarrass good people like us for the sake of a few bastards." After listening to her words, some of the crowd showed a clear expression, some expressed disgust, and a few were a little envious.

"Slap!" Lai Fang spoke, everyone was taken aback, and Arima was also taken aback, but the reaction was not slow. Before everyone could react, he took a big step, and when he reached the yin and yang person, he was slapped twice. Beat the man dumbfounded.

The man fell to the ground with a groan, a bit of a rascal, "Beat someone, beat someone~ It's unreasonable!"

As soon as she yelled, everyone realized that they were filled with righteous indignation, "Why do you hit someone, why do you hit someone, why are you adults?" Arima retreated to his position long before the man fell to the ground, waiting for Lai Fang Instigate.

"Disrespectful! My lord is here, how can you make a noise, and you still don't back down!" Arima said little, but she was not stupid. She had never seen a thug who dared to be so arrogant after meeting a samurai.

"Hmph, let's do it if we can't make up our minds! Do samurai just attack people who don't have weapons?" The man who fell down saw the emotions of the crowd again, and took the opportunity to point out his face.Arima was taken aback for a moment, but this man was quite knowledgeable.It is not a righteous act for a samurai to draw a sword against an unarmed person, and if other samurai know about it, it will be ridiculed.She looked at Lai Fang hesitantly. The latter curled his lips and laughed out loud, "It is said that peasants are simple and cunning. I always have such a big contrast between the two. How could they be together. I have seen it today. It makes sense." It is really beneficial to be reasonable when it is reasonable, and to be rude when it is unreasonable."

Lai Fang took a step forward, pulled out the dagger from his waist, and with a bang, the people in the front row subconsciously staggered back a big step in fright. "Okay, as you said, I don't kill unarmed people, so which one of you dares to step forward and hold this knife!" Civilians are armed, and the crime is the same as rebellion. I also know the truth of this life-saving.

The person who was beaten by Arima was the most rascal, and he knelt down on the ground with a plop, "We dare not offend my lord, but it's really hard not to go into the valley to have a look. If my lord won't let me, let's just kneel down." After waking up everyone, they all knelt down with a thud, and they meant to kneel and die here because Fang did not retreat.Where has Lai Fang seen such a rascal, holding her breath in her chest, and she can see that this is the instigator.This is to look at her because of her reputation and dare not do anything, right? A naked threat.

"Okay, let you go, don't you go?" Lai Fang laughed back in anger, everyone was stunned, and waited for the next sentence, only to see Lai Fang put the dagger back into his waist, pulled out the sword, and said sinisterly "Now, don't any of you want to leave!" Her hand raised the knife, and she swung it towards the head of the troublemaker.

Before the man had time to react, he felt a gust of cool wind from the knife, which made the back of her neck feel cold, and she shivered and peed in fright.After a while, she stretched out her trembling hand to wipe her neck, forgetting to shout.When she touched her head on her neck, she burst into tears and snot.But then she went up and touched a handful of hair, "Ah~~~!!!" She screamed, it turned out that the hair on the top of her head was cut off by Lai Fang, which was close to the scalp.

Those who reason with rascals are fools.Lai Fang swung the Taidao lightly a few times, with a beautiful light and shadow, shaking off the hair on the sword, and returning it to the scabbard. "Who else wants to judge?"

"Ah~~"

"Ah, kill~ kill!" Only then did everyone realize what had happened. Looking at the top of their companion's bald head, their calves turned in fright.Plop plop sat down on the ground, supported it with his hands and began to move back.When Lai Fang felt that it was time for these people to retreat, he heard angry shouts in the distance, accompanied by the sound of horseshoes in a hurry, from far to near, "Stop! Stop!"

I saw a person dressed in black, riding a maroon horse, constantly urging the horse forward.As soon as Arima saw that the visitor was dressed to match the horse, he immediately took a step forward, stood in front of Lai Fang, and said in a low voice, "Master, be careful, the visitor is Ise Makoto. And, please be careful, master, a little forbearance is the best, and you must not reveal your identity." With a few words, Arima explained the identity of the visitor and the relationship between us and the enemy.

The troublemakers were not relieved when they saw the people coming. The warrior class has always been protected by officials, and besides, they got tired of the rules when they gathered together, and they were a little panicked.On the contrary, the fear of Lai Fang was aroused by this person's arrival and dissipated a little.The visitor ran up to them, stopped the horse, and quickly got off the horse.When he landed on the ground, Lai Fang was taken aback for a moment. This man is not yet 20 years old, and he has a good appearance. This is not what surprised her. Lai Fang, who is 1.7 meters tall, only reaches the shoulders of men. Among the generally low-profile crowd, this man is simply outstanding. Even in modern times, it is rare for a woman to be this tall.

"Ooka Pursuer." The leader at the beginning saw the person coming and saluted.The visitor looked around at the crowd, then at Lai Fang and Arima, looked at their outfits, and frowned.

"As a samurai, you should serve your country. The sword in your hand is for the enemy. How can you use it against the unarmed common people?" She scolded Lai Fang, her hand also clenched the Taidao that had just been drawn from her waist.As far as the current situation of Lai Fang and this person is concerned, both of them are carrying knives, which is equivalent to an arrow on the string, ready to call at any time.

Immediately, he stepped forward and said, "My master and I were passing through this place. Unfortunately, the master was bitten by a poisonous snake. It happened that the master here rescued him. These people have been instigated by someone who came here to seek bad luck for the master here. We have received favors from others, and we will definitely repay them." One or two, intended to deter and not hurt anyone."

After hearing Youma's words, everyone probably knew the reason, and they all secretly cursed that the lives of the people in the valley should not be lost, and they saved the nobleman.But the person who came came said solemnly, "There are few snakes in this sacred mountain of Ise, and now it's deep winter, and the snakes have long hibernated. Why did you get bitten by a snake? Your whereabouts are secretive, and your identities are unknown. , please also explain your identity clearly."

Arima didn't expect her remarks to be exposed in person. She was just explaining euphemistically. The point is that they didn't hurt anyone, and they didn't mean to embarrass the villagers.And this person, as a samurai, did not protect the interests of the samurai, but asked them about their identities.Arima didn't know if this person was really just and strict, or if he wanted to take advantage of the opportunity, she couldn't make up her mind for a while.

The person who came did not give chase, walked up to the crowd, and said, "Since you know my identity, you should know that I am solely responsible for the local security. You have violated the regulations by gathering more than 20 people, and, In your capacity, you actually contradicted the lord warrior, and you will be punished for both crimes, and go to the 'village office' to find your 'leader' to receive the punishment." When everyone heard this, their faces turned pale, and they all kowtowed for forgiveness.

"Don't leave yet!" The visitor said majesticly, everyone said yes slightly, and walked away with a scramble.It is said that the county magistrate is not as good as the current one. This person can have a greater deterrent effect on them than the lord and the like.Seeing her drinking away everyone, Lai Fang had a higher opinion of her in his heart. This person is a man who follows the rules and is impartial.

Seeing that everyone was leaving, Arima got a signal from Lai Fang, and stepped forward to show his identification plate and guide.The person who came was stunned, nodded, and looked at Lai Fang again. Arima was in a dilemma, and Lai Fang also took out his identity badge regardless of Arima's obstruction.

The man took it, hurriedly returned the sign to Lai Fang respectfully, knelt on the ground and bowed, "I don't know how offended my lord is here." Arima was taken aback, Lai Fang confirmed his guess, this person is indeed a Very well-behaved, there is still a bit of chivalry and justice for the poor who rule the land.

"What's your name?" Lai Fang asked, the man was taken aback for a moment, and then replied, "My villain, Dagang Zhongxiang."

Hearing her name, Lai Fang felt happy. In this era, there are no so-called "loyal ministers" or "treacherous ministers", but to her, it was very interesting to hear someone named "loyal minister".Lai Fang didn't show it. He felt that since the matter was over, he saved some tongues, "Since the villagers were persuaded by you to leave, and you have verified our identities, you can leave."

Ooka Tadashi stood up, and said politely, "The villagers have been persuaded to leave, and your identity has been verified, but I still want to go into the valley to have a look!"
