I was a swordsman in ancient Japan

Ogata also showed surprise.

He heard Yishihua's introduction just now, and this Beiyuan should be the invincible existence among all the participants in the "big test".

"Miss Isshiki." Ogata asked softly to Isshika beside him, "Didn't you say that Beiyuan is very powerful?"

While asking Isshika aloud, Ogata rolled his eyes and carefully looked up and down that An Yun several times.

Ogata had a panoramic view of An Yun's series of actions just now.

If Ogata were to describe An Yun who killed Bei Yuan in an instant...it would be that this person is definitely not someone to take lightly.

Whether it is the timing and distance of the close body, or the timing and angle of the attack, they are all perfect.

Being able to so accurately grasp the timing and angle of launching an attack in a person-to-person battle, as well as the timing and distance of melee... This only means one thing

This person's experience in man-to-man battles is extremely rich.

"I, I don't know what's going on..." Yishihua's beautiful eyes are now rounded, "Who is this An Yun... I've never heard of such a person... Yuan When did Mingguan produce such a powerful person..."

The referee in charge of presiding over the trial match between Beiyuan and An Yun has a high professionalism.

Although he was also stunned by the picture in front of him now, he recovered quickly

After recovering, he stammered a little and shouted:

"Yuanyuan, Yuanmingguan! An, An Yunyou helped win!"

After the referee announced that he had won, An Yun put the wooden knife back on her right shoulder, and walked down the field triumphantly and swaggeringly.

As for the two apprentices from Beiyuan Quanbingguan who had passed out, they quickly entered the arena, and carried him back to the arena, one left and one right.

The "big test match" adopts the "one battle to decide the outcome" system.

In other words, Bei Yuan, who had already lost once, had no chance to play again.

Everyone thought that his victory in the "Three-in-a-row Championship" was nothing more than a certainty for Beiyuan, but he lost the first game with such a result, which is really surprising.

Isshika, who couldn't hide her astonishment, turned to her grandfather and asked:

"Grandpa, do you know who this An Yun is? When did the Yuanming Hall have such a powerful character?"

"This Anyun... I have a little impression..." Zhizhou's gaze has been following Anyun's figure closely since just now. After hearing Yishihua's question, he murmured in a low voice, "I remember He is a new apprentice who only joined the Yuanming Pavilion half a year ago."

"The skill is quite outstanding...but it should not be so outstanding..."

One Color Sword Gym, Quanbing Gym... people in each sword gym were shocked by An Yun's strength.

As for the Yuanming Hall to which An Yun belonged, everyone in the hall was also quite shocked...

Those brothers and sisters who accompanied An Yun to participate in or watch the "big test match" all stared at An Yun who had returned with wide eyes and wide mouths.

"An Yun-jun." Shibata, who is a brother of Yuan Mingguan with An Yun, swallowed hard, "You, when did you become so powerful?"

An Yun glanced sideways at Shibata, then showed a strange smile, and smiled without saying a word.

Among the people in the Yuanming Pavilion, only their owner: Yagi Matahachiro was very calm.

Just now, when An Yun instantly killed Beiyuan with one move, Yagi kept smiling, as if everything was within his expectations.

After An Yun came back, Yagi smiled and nodded at An Yun:

"An Yun, you seem to be in good shape today."

"Oh, master." An Yun grinned and let out a hearty laugh, "I don't know why today, but my condition is exceptionally good!"

After finishing speaking, An Yun stopped talking to his master Yagi and anyone else, sat cross-legged and returned to his seat, folded her arms around her chest, closed her eyes and meditated.

The "big test match" had just begun, and there was such a scene that made everyone in the audience unexpected.

Although everyone was shocked, the "big test match" had to continue, so they could only restrain their surprise in their hearts and prepare to continue the trial match.

After the emergence of the "big dark horse" An Yun, the rest of the competition became much more ordinary.

Ogata originally guessed that the competition between these people who probably hadn't even touched a real sword much, must be extremely boring.

And now it seems that it really is.

Even though they have stepped into the best attack area, they did not launch an attack.

Defending when it shouldn't be.

So far, only An Yun has made Ogata's eyes shine.

After watching 4 boring trial matches in a row, it was finally An Yun's turn to play again.

An Yun, who played again, reproduced the previous scene and killed her opponent in one blow...

Right now

Osaka, Osaka Magistrate Office, the office of the Magistrate

Osaka follows Okino Kyousuke, and is now busy with government affairs.

Just as Kyoto's pursuit was overwhelmed by the governor of Kyoto, Osaka's pursuit was also overwhelmed by Osaka Castle.

As Okino's direct superior, Osakajo Dai Hotta, it is Okino's duty to faithfully complete any order issued by Hotta.

Too many abnormal things have happened recently, making Okino uneasy these days.

First of all, a merchant ship smuggling armor was seized in Osaka Port more than a month ago.

The magnitude of this incident has exceeded the range that Okino can handle.

So when Okino learned of the incident, he immediately reported it to Hota.

And then... no more.

After Hotta learned about this, he personally took charge of the investigation of this matter. Okino didn't know anything about the current investigation results of the armor smuggling merchant ship and dared not ask further questions.

After being so peaceful for more than a month, yesterday, Hotta issued an order to Okino that made him worry:

To check the stocks of grain, weapons, etc. in the warehouse in Osaka, the exact figures of the grain, weapons, horses, etc. stored in the treasury must be handed over within 2 days.

Horita suddenly asked to check the inventory of the Osaka government treasury... Okino deduced from his own work experience that there are generally only two possibilities:

One, there are important ministers from the central government who want to come to Osaka to check their governance.

Second, what happened to use the inventory items in the Osaka Treasury on a large scale now or in the future...

Reminiscent of the "armor smuggling" incident that took place over a month ago, Okino vaguely realized something...

The more he thought about it, the more Okino shuddered.

This is no longer something that he, a small town, can get involved in, or even ponder over and consider.

Afraid to delve into this matter, Okino put all his body and mind into completing the task assigned by Hota.

As the "No. [-] business capital in the world" as the national logistics center, the various items in the Osaka Treasury are naturally an astronomical figure.

It is not an easy task to sort out an accurate number of items in the treasury within 2 days.

Okino is now conscientiously checking and checking the statistical reports submitted by the subordinate officials.

"My eyes are getting worse..."

After putting down another report, Okino sighed and rubbed his eyes vigorously while raising his hand.

45 years old is Okino's current age.

Since the age of 40, Okino has obviously felt that his body is getting worse, especially his eyes.

Not only can you not see objects in the distance clearly, but it is also very easy to get sour.

Just when Okino raised his head, closed his eyes tightly, and let his eyes rest, a notification from one of his subordinates suddenly sounded outside the office:

"Master Okino, Yugayaku brought a letter for you."

"A letter?" Okino opened his eyes suddenly, and then hurriedly said in a joyful tone, "Hurry up and get the letter for me!"

"Yes!"

Higashi: A courier in the Edo period.

In the Edo period, Japan already had an extremely powerful express service. As long as you can afford it, Hikyaku can help you deliver letters or goods from the easternmost point of Japan to the westernmost point.

After Okino asked to bring the letter quickly, after a while, a well-sealed letter was presented on Okino's desk.

With excitement shining in his eyes, Okino tore open the envelope and took out a thin sheet of letter paper.

This neatly folded letter paper has a bright red rubbed on the top.

Taking a look at the bright red on the top of the letter paper, Okino was immediately elated.

"Miss Qingju sent me a letter again hehehe"

A somewhat obscene laugh came from Okino's mouth.

One of the popular playgirls at the Mushroom House in Harugiku Shinmachi.

For the traveling girls, guests are their life.

In order to prevent the loss of regular customers and convert customers into repeat customers, writing letters to customers and inviting them to come back is one of their daily important tasks.

Because you girls basically don't have personal freedom, so they will entrust Feiyue to help deliver the letter.

Among the letters sent by these wandering girls to their guests, the most special kind of letter is the letter that Okino is holding in his hand now, which has a sky-red letter.

Fold the letter paper, then bite the top of the letter paper with lips coated with lip balm, and use the lip balm on the lips to press a red mark on the top of the letter paper. This red mark is called "Tianhong".

This kind of letter with the sky red, usually only sent to the most special guests for her.

Therefore, when a wandering girl sends you this kind of letter with sky red, it means that the wandering girl is saying to you: You are a special existence to me.

Because of this "Tianhong letter" has such a meaning, many "Flower Street Daredevils" are eager to receive the "Tianhong letter" from their favorite wandering girls.

Of course, in order to solicit customers, many wandering girls send a letter printed with Tianhong to each of their regular customers, saying "you are the person I love the most" to everyone in the letter, which is not uncommon, and everyone knows it matter.

Okino was not in a hurry to open the letter in his hand, but first smiled wretchedly, opened his mouth wide, sucked the sky red on the letter paper, and then sucked it hard.

"Yeah, the smell of Qingju is delicious! It's delicious!"

Because of the peculiar ethics of the Edo period, it was only a very common thing for married couples to wander around the flower street together after work.As the governor of Osaka Town, Okino, who is not short of money and has an extremely lustful temper, has always been the most outstanding "Shinmachi Daredevil" in Osaka official circles.

Qingju met Okino by chance 2 months ago.

When he saw Qingju for the first time, Okino was captivated by her face, bear, and feet.

For the past three months, Okino has been visiting Qingju's business every three days.

And Qingju is also a girl who knows how to please Okino.

Since I hooked up with Okino, I have been writing letters to Okino frequently, to connect with feelings, and write something on the letter paper similar to "The clothes on the part of my Wu Fu's chest seem to be narrowed", this kind of little coquettish that tickles Okino Those words made Okino miss Qingju even more.

For the past three months with Qingju, you and me, the sound that Okino wanted to hear most every day was the sound of the bell on Feiyue's body.All flying feet have a bell hanging on their body.When the flying feet run to deliver the package, the bell will ring non-stop

The letters Qingju wrote to Okino were all "Tianhong Letters" without exception, and basically received a Tianhong Letter every day.So now after seeing this letter with Tianhong on it, Okino immediately knew that it was a letter written by Qingju.

6 days ago, Qingju suddenly fell ill, which made Okino depressed for a long time.Because of Qingju's illness, Okino did not receive a letter from Qingju for a long time.

Today, I received a letter from Qingju after a long absence, which made Okino very excited, and the exhaustion in my body was swept away.

Holding the sky red on the letter in his mouth, until the fat on his lips melted, Okino finally opened the letter.

Okino held his breath and concentrated on reading the new letter from Qingju in his hand word by word.

After reading, Okino couldn't help showing a wretched smirk.

There is not much content written in Qingju's letter, and there are only two parts in total.

The first part is the routine greetings of Hedgehog.

The second part is the invitation from Chongye.

Qingju said that her illness was about to recover, and she would probably recover in 4 days, and asked Okino if he had time to visit her at the Mushroom Flower House in Shinmachi in the evening after 4 days.

Qingju's letter is very reserved. At first glance, it seems to be a normal letter, but even a fool can see that her so-called "look at her" is to "check whether her body is developing normally". Kind of "look".

"In 4 days..." Okino wiped the saliva that was almost dripping from the corner of his mouth, and tried hard to recall his future itinerary. In the evening after 4 days, he should be free.

After confirming that he had time four days later in the evening, Okino immediately folded and put away the Tianhong letter in his palm, and then pushed away all the sundries on the desk in front of him in one breath, continuing to laugh obscenely while laughing obscenely. Writing a reply letter to Qingju.
