I was a swordsman in ancient Japan

"Huh?" Ogata raised his eyebrows, "Are you going to give me that horse?"

"It's just a parting gift." Mamiya shrugged, "Anyway, horses are not an extremely precious thing for our Calabash House."

"Thank you very much." Ogata didn't show much pretense, just nodded his thanks.

After thanking him, Ogata expressed his half-joking emotion:

"I really owe you Calabash House a lot of favors."

Without the help of Jian Gong and Mu Cun, it would not be so easy for Ogata to leave the broken place of Butterfly Island.

After leaving Butterfly Island, I have been receiving big and small help from Hulu House.

First, I learned how to ride a horse from Mamiya and the others, and then today I got personal guidance from Genichi.

Not to mention these big help, there are also many small help, for example, from last night to now, Ogata has already eaten 2 meals at Huluya for nothing.

Having received so much help from Huluya, Ogata felt a little embarrassed.

Although the relationship with Kinoxia Lin is currently very tense, there is no deep hatred between him and Kinoxia Lin.

So Ogata wouldn't hold grudges against the whole gourd house just because of such a trivial matter.

What's more, compared with the help Huluwu is currently providing him, this little festival with Kinoshita Lin is really nothing.

"It's just helping each other." Jiangong chuckled a few times.

Ogata slightly lowered the bamboo hat on his head, and lifted Da Shitian and Da Zizai from his waist.

"Then I'll go ahead. See you soon."

"Maybe we will see you again soon." Mamiya said in a half-joking tone, "After having breakfast today and reporting to the lord what he saw and heard on Butterfly Island, the lord has decided on the next move: Go to Kyoto to find He Shi and He Zhi, the master and apprentice."

After hearing Mamiya's words, Ogata was not surprised. After all, he had expected that the people from Calabash House would definitely come to find this mysterious pair of master and apprentice.

Calabash House has been investigating "Immortal" all these years, and it is impossible to let go of this pair of master and apprentice who might know a lot of things.

"Then you should work hard too." Ogata said in a joking tone, "It is much more difficult for you to find this master-student pair than me. You don't have the prescription for this master-student pair like I do."

"You don't have to worry about this." An intriguing smile appeared on Gamiya's face, "We also have our clues."

"clue?"

"As for the clues, let me keep it a secret."

"I don't care what your clues are, as long as you don't follow me."

"We will not use such low-level means."

After joking with Mamiya for the last time, Ogata walked down the mountain without any hesitation.

Ogata stopped slowly when the figures of Genichi and Mamiya completely disappeared from his field of vision and the base of Gourd House could not be seen.

Ogata raised his head and looked towards the top of the mountain he was currently on.

The base of Gourd House is located halfway up the mountain, so Ogata is also right on the mountainside now.

Standing on the mountainside and looking up, you can see the mountain that pierces straight into the sky.

Although the mountain where Ogata is currently standing is high, it is not the highest in this area.

Ogata looked around, and he could see that the mountain not far away was much higher than the mountain at Ogata's feet.

But the mountain is still not the tallest,

The mountain next to it is the highest mountain in Ogata's field of vision.

There must be other mountains farther away than this one

What Genichi said to him this morning echoed in Ogata's mind.

Although nearly an hour has passed, the words that Gen-sama and him said to Ogata are still ringing in my ears.

After the words Genichi told him echoed in his mind again, Ogata breathed out a foul breath.

Then, a faint smile appeared on Ogata's face.

"take it easy"

After murmuring something so softly that only he could hear clearly, Ogata stepped forward again and walked down the mountain with big strides

Chapter 273 Shangluo! 【Happy New Year! 】

Not long after Ogata left the gourd house——

"Xiaolin! Xiaolin!"

Genichi stood in front of the paper sliding door of a certain room, shouting loudly.

"What are you doing...?!" An impatient female voice came from behind the sliding door.

As the paper sliding door was opened, Kinoshita Rin's face with a strong and irritated expression appeared in front of Yuan Yi.

"Ogata-kun, he has already left."

"... Oh." Knowing that Ogata had left, Kinoshita Rin only replied "Oh" with a cold face, "It's just right that he's gone now, I can save one person's cooking."

Genichi gave Kinoshita Rin a complicated look.

Afterwards, with a long sigh, Chao Lin said softly:

"...I have learned the details of what happened between you and Ogata-kun this morning."

"Lin...the reason why you speak badly to Ogata-kun and keep making a bad face at Ogata-kun is because...you envy him that he can master the two swords without me just by using my secret manual—am I right? "

After Yuan Yi's words fell, Lin did not immediately respond to Yuan Yi's question.

Only silent.

But Lin's silence was already a disguised answer to Yuan Yi's question.

"...Xiao Lin." Yuan Yi sighed again, "I have said similar things many times."

"I have seen all the hardships you have endured since childhood, and I understand your difficulties."

"But your personality with high self-esteem really needs to be changed."

"There are people beyond people, and there is a sky beyond the sky-this is the truth of the world."

"Being jealous of other people—it's the most boring, stupid thing to do."

"What's more, your talent is already very high, there is really no need to be jealous of Ogata..."

Before Yuan Yi finished speaking, Lin, who had been silent just now, suddenly let out a roar:

"Don't say it anymore!!"

Lin's roar directly interrupted Yuan Yi's words.

After the conversation was interrupted, Genichi obediently obeyed Lin's words, shut his mouth tightly, and stopped talking, only staring silently at Lin's face flushed with anger.

Lin gasped for several breaths, and then gradually let her breathing calm down again.

As her breathing eased, Lin's emotions gradually returned to calm and stability.

After calming down——

"...I'm sorry... I just... said something rude..."

Rin lowered her head and shoulders, apologizing to Genichi.

Because Lin lowered his head, Genichi could only see the hair on the top of Lin's head.

Lin's appearance at this time is very much like a wronged child who has done something wrong and begged for forgiveness from his elders.

"Hey...Xiaolin, you've done something wrong and you will definitely apologize, which is pretty cute...Okay, let's not talk about this topic."

After all, Yuanyi sighed lightly again.

Just when Yuan Yi was about to turn around and leave, Lin suddenly stopped Yuan Yi.

"Uncle... You came just in time, can you tell everyone to gather in the Buddhist hall for me? I have something important to announce to everyone."

……

……

After about half a stick of incense——

After receiving Lin's sudden call, everyone in the gourd house immediately rushed to the Buddhist hall.

After everyone came together, Lin, who was sitting under the seal of the thousand-pound gourd horse, immediately said to everyone:

"Everyone! We are going to Kyoto next!"

"Kyoto?" Mucun raised his eyebrows first, "What are we going to do in Kyoto?"

"Of course I went to find He Shi and He Zhi, the master and apprentice." Lin said calmly. information."

"Our Calabash House has been investigating 'Undead' for so many years, and we finally have such a reliable clue until now, so we can't let it go no matter what!"

After Jian Gong and Mu Cun came back, they immediately reported everything they had seen and heard in Butterfly Island to everyone in Calabash House.

So everyone in the Hulu House now knows that Die Island really has "undead people" who can't be killed no matter what, and what is "undead poison".

Knowing the existence of the suspicious master-student pair He Shi and He Zhi.

I also know that there is an "immortal poison" lurking in Ogata's body, and he is in a state where he may die at any time; I know that Ogata went to Kyoto to find the two doctors to find a way to remove the immortal poison from his body.

"...Then how do we find this master-student pair?" Asai frowned slightly, "Yitao Zhai has at least two prescriptions written by this master-student pair in his hands, and we can use them as clues to start searching."

"And we don't have any clues other than knowing the name of the master and apprentice, and the accent of Kyoto. And the name used by the master and apprentice is very likely to be a pseudonym."

"About the clues...you don't have to worry about that." A meaningful smile appeared on Lin's face, "That Ogata has his clues, and we also have ours."

As soon as Lin's voice fell, Jiangong sitting under it said lightly:

"I glanced at the two prescriptions in Ogata-kun's hand."

As soon as the words of Jian Gong fell, Mu Cun asked in surprise:

"When did you see those two prescriptions in Ogata's hand?"

"The immortal poison in Ogata-kun's body has just been suppressed. When I took out these two prescriptions and asked Konnosuke if I could pass them on to him." Mamiya said softly, "I happened to be standing next to Ogata-kun. , and luckily the words on these two prescriptions are big enough, so I can barely see what is written on them."

"Ordinary people may not be able to discover any mysteries in it."

"But because I have learned a little Nanban medical skills in the Echizen area, I can see a bit tricky from these two prescriptions."

"Among the two prescriptions written by the master and apprentice, a lot of Nanman medical skills are involved."

"So - this pair of masters and apprentices are not only Chinese medicine doctors, but also Lanfang doctors, and their attainments in Nanban medicine are not low."

"There are not many doctors who know Nanman medicine. Even in a metropolis like Kyoto, there are very few people who know Nanman medicine."

"It will soon be possible to find out which doctors in the capital understand Nanban's medical skills."

"...I see." Asai nodded lightly, "In this way, it is indeed possible to quickly find out who is most likely to be the suspicious pair of master and apprentice."

"We're going to Los Angeles in 3 days!"

Lin directly announced to them.

"It's rare to come across a fairly reliable clue. This operation is very important!"

"So this time we will do our best!"

"Except for Jiulang and Bogong, everyone else will follow me to Luo!"

"Wait!" As soon as Lin finished speaking, Mucun took the lead in shouting, "Except for Mr. Jiangong and Mr. Yuan, they are all going to Luo? That means——do I want to go to Kyoto too?"

"Of course." Lynn nodded.

"Why doesn't he have to go to the palace?"

"Because Kuro has been busy since the beginning of this year, it's time for Kuro to take a good rest."

"I've been busy since the beginning of this year too. I went to Butterfly Island with Gamiya. Why can Gamiya rest while I still have to go to Kyoto?"

"Because you used to work in Kyoto, and you are the one who is most familiar with Kyoto among all of us here, so you have to go with us no matter what." Lin's face showed impatience, "No more objections are allowed! Say half a word of nonsense, just wait to see boogers in tonight's dinner!"

"Yes..." Mu Cun, who was still aggressively raising his objection, silently retracted his head that was originally raised high.

"Jiulang." Lin glanced at Jiangong, "Take a good look at the house."

"Yes!"

"Go to Kyoto to find those two doctors..." Shimada murmured, "Master Ogata, he went to Kyoto to find those two doctors, right? Then wouldn't it be easy for us to run into Mr. Ogata?" ?”
