I was a swordsman in ancient Japan

Page 310

Although Ogata felt that even without his help just now, Guasheng should have been able to settle the one-on-four battle smoothly, at most he suffered a little more injury afterwards.

"Miss Guasheng!" The middle-aged man named Qingweimen yelled at Guasheng, "These four bastards are all tied up!"

"Yes." Guasheng nodded, "Then let's go. Take these four bastards back to Yoshihara."

Before leaving, Guasheng once again bowed deeply to Ogata.

After bowing to Ogata again, Guasheng led the five companions who wore the same style of dark blue haori as hers, and escorted the four bastards who were still moaning "humph" slowly Move away from Ogata's field of vision.

After the girl named Gua Sheng left, the spectators who were watching the fun dispersed.

Ogata also returned to the sushi restaurant with Ah-machi.

After the two sat down at the table they were sitting at, Ah-cho turned his head and asked Ogata:

"Just now the girl said that she is from the Shirobei Club, what is the Shirobei Club?"

"I don't know." Ogata shook his head, "But from what the girl said, it seems that the Shirobei clubhouse has something to do with Yoshihara."

The knowledge related to Edo, especially the knowledge related to Yoshihara, directly hits the blind spot of Ogata's knowledge.

As soon as Ogata finished speaking, a chuckle of "hehe" came from the next table.

"Both of you are not from Edo, are you?"

Ogata and A-Machi both followed the sound and turned their heads.

The person who spoke was a middle-aged woman sitting at the table next to Ogata and the others.

Ogata remembered that after the middle-aged woman entered the sushi restaurant in Naguasheng just now, it was this middle-aged woman who was sitting next to Ogata who first yelled the word "Yoshihara-sato" and then attracted Ogata's attention. At the entrance of the sushi restaurant.

The clothes on this middle-aged woman are not cheap at first glance, and there is an air of elegance in both her manner and her conversation. One can tell that her family background must be good.

"Yeah." Ogata nodded, "The two of us are indeed not natives of Edo."

"Shirobei Clubhouse, you two can be understood as Yoshihara's administrative office." The middle-aged woman said to Ogata and Atachi, "Yoshihara is surrounded by tall wooden walls on all sides, just like a city. An entrance and exit."

"After entering Yoshihara through the only entrance and exit of Yoshihara, you will see the Shirobei clubhouse on your right."

"As I said just now, you can understand the Shirobei Clubhouse as Yoshihara's administrative office. The people in the clubhouse are responsible for managing Yoshihara's various chores."

"Maintaining the law and order of Yoshihara is the most important job of the Shirobei Clubhouse."

"There are three thousand wandering girls in Yoshihara, and there are countless people who go in and out of Yoshihara every day."

"With a large flow of people, it is inevitable that there will be some scum."

"Scumbags who steal money from girls, who don't pay after having fun, and who are violent to girls appear in Yoshiwara every day."

"After these scumbags who disturb the law and order of Yoshihara appear, the Shirobei Club, which takes maintaining the law and order of Yoshihara as its own responsibility, will take action to bring these scumbags to justice."

"Just now, Miss Gua Shengxiu from the Shirobei Club arrested the scum who didn't give money after having fun."

"I seem to have heard you call the woman named Guasheng as Yoshihara Ri Tongxin before." Ogata asked, "What is Yoshihara Ri Tongxin? Is it the official title of Shirobei Club?"

"Hehehe." The middle-aged woman covered her mouth and chuckled a few times, "No. Yoshihara Ritongxin is not an official title."

"Yoshihara Ri Tongxin is just a title we Edo people gave to Miss Gua Shengxiu."

"Miss Gua Shengxiu can be regarded as one of our celebrities in Edo."

"She's from the Shirobei clubhouse."

"Although she is a daughter, she possesses extremely strong swordsmanship and handling ability."

"Those who dare to disturb the law and order in Yoshihara, unless they escape from Edo, they will basically not be able to escape Miss Gua Shengxiu's palm."

"In order to arrest those who disturbed the law and order of Yoshihara and escaped from Yoshiwara, Ms. Gua Shengxiu would always shuttle in the streets and alleys of Edo, so people in Edo knew of Miss Gua Shengxiu's existence."

"Miss Gua Shengxiu has unknowingly become a celebrity in our Edo."

"Because of the existence of Ms. Gua Shengxiu, the law and order in Yoshihara has improved a lot in one breath, so Miss Gua Shengxiu is very popular in Yoshiwara, and she is very popular among Yoshihara girls."

"The wandering girls in Yoshihara gave Ms. Gua Shengxiu a nickname: Tongxin in Yoshihara."

"It means Yoshihara's concentricity."

"And this title also spread unknowingly. People other than Yoshihara Younv also began to call Ms. Gua Shengxiu Yoshihara Ri Tongxin."

"In addition to the same heart in Yoshihara, Miss Gua Shengxiu also has a nickname, that is the female swordsman."

"This title was given to Ms. Gua Shengxiu by someone outside Yoshihara."

"Miss Gua Shengxiu's sharp swordsmanship impressed many people deeply, so everyone even nicknamed Miss Gua Shengxiu a female swordsman."

"But compared to the female swordsman, the title Yoshihara Ri Tongxin is better and more popular."

"Edo is so open." As soon as the middle-aged woman finished speaking, A-Machi nodded with a serious face, "Even women can be officials."

"Hohohoho" the middle-aged woman covered her mouth and smiled, "Miss, you have misunderstood."

"How can a woman be an official in the shogunate?"

"Miss Gua Shengxiu is not an official official of Shirobei Club."

"It's someone hired by the Shirobei Club."

"So Miss Gua Shengxiu is actually white, not an official in the shogunate."

"Miss Gua Shengxiu's wages are paid by Shirobei Club itself, not by the shogunate."

"The reason why the wandering girls in Yoshihara gave Ms. Gua Shengxiu the nickname Yoshihara Ri Tongxin is partly for the convenience of calling Miss Gua Shengxiu who has no official position."

"Strictly speaking, Miss Gua Shengxiu is not an official servant of the Shirobei Club, but everyone actually treats her as an official servant of the Shirobei Club."

After Ogata and Atachi quietly listened to the middle-aged woman's introduction, they both thanked the middle-aged woman for patiently informing them about Shirobei's clubhouse.

After the introduction by the middle-aged woman, the sushi ordered by Ogata and Atachi just arrived.

While stuffing the sushi into his mouth, A-Machi lowered his volume, and sighed to Ogata in a low voice that only she and Ogata could hear clearly:

"That girl named Gua Sheng is really amazing. She can be called a female swordsman by everyone."

"Yeah." Ogata nodded lightly, then imitated the voice of A-Ming just now, and said in a low voice, "It's very powerful. But although Miss Guasheng's swordsmanship is indeed very strong, the title of female swordsman is still worthy of the title." Some have passed."

A helpless smile appeared on Ogata's face.

"According to my visual observation, Miss Guasheng's swordsmanship level should only be in the middle of Shimada's brother Zhong. Her strength is not enough to be crowned the title of swordsman."

"People in this country like to give people random nicknames."

Speaking of this, Ogata couldn't help complaining.

"From ancient times to the present, people in this country like to give people silly nicknames."

"What about Tiger Kato, Raijin, Demon Lord of the Sixth Heaven, Dragon of Echigo?"

"Even I have been dubbed a lot of messy nicknames."

"I don't know if I will have any new nicknames in the future"

Chapter 357 The Most Powerful Person in East Japan's "Ren Xia World" [6000 words]

Edo, southwest, a 3-story mansion that is inconspicuous because it is located in a remote area.

Edo has never lacked dignitaries.

Compared with those big houses of those dignitaries, this mansion looks so inconspicuous.

But anyone who knows a little about the identity of the owner of this mansion knows that the owner of this mansion is no worse than those dignitaries in Edo in terms of power.

At this moment, Lin and Yuanyi were staying in a certain room in this mansion.

Both of them took off their swords and placed them on the tatami on the right side of their bodies.

Lin knelt respectfully on the tatami in a very standard posture, with her back straight, her eyes closed, and she was meditating.

Compared with Lin, Yuanyi's sitting posture is much more casual.

Genichi just sat cross-legged on the tatami mat carelessly, yawning a few times from time to time.

The two have been in this room for a long time.

They are waiting.

Wait for someone to arrive.

After waiting for an unknown amount of time, the paper sliding door of this room was finally pulled open.

The one who opened the sliding door was a young man kneeling by the door.

"Miss Kinoshita." The young man said respectfully, "Master Dongcheng is here."

Hearing the young man's words, Lin, who had been closing her eyes just now, slowly opened her eyes.

As the young man's announcement fell, footsteps sounded from far to near in the corridor outside the door.

The sound of footsteps moved from a distant place to the door, and a middle-aged man with an extremely strong figure appeared outside the opened paper sliding door.

Although the middle-aged man was wearing a black kimono, the top of the kimono was completely pulled away, exposing his upper body covered with rock-hard muscles.

While exposing the muscles of his upper body, he also revealed the hideous tattoo that almost covered his entire upper body.

The middle-aged man first looked at Lin and Yuanyi in the lower room with calm eyes.

After seeing Genichi who was sitting cross-legged casually, a subtle and strange light flashed in the eyes of the middle-aged man.

After withdrawing his gaze from looking at Lin and Yuanyi, the middle-aged man walked slowly into the room, and finally sat cross-legged in front of Lin and Yuanyi.

After the middle-aged man entered the room, the young man who was in charge of announcing to Lin that "Master Dongcheng is coming" gently closed the sliding door.

The paper sliding door blocked the light outside the room again, turning the room into a secret room again.

It's just that besides Lin and Yuanyi, there is the middle-aged man who just entered the room in this secret room.

"Long time no see." Lin said to the middle-aged man first, "Master Dongcheng, you really made me and my uncle wait."

"I came to look for you in the morning, but I didn't finally see you until the afternoon."

"It's been a long time." The middle-aged man who Lin called Dongcheng smiled, "Miss Kinoshita, when was the last time we met? I forgot, but you still took Kinoshita The adults brought it too."

"Please forgive me, Ms. Kinoshita, I have an absolutely irresistible meeting with Kanding Mahogany this morning. I am really sorry to keep you two waiting for so long."

"It's okay. Anyway, I'm not in a hurry." Lin said softly, "Master Dongcheng, my uncle is here now, so for the convenience of addressing, you can call me Lin."

"Should I call you by your first name?" Dongcheng shrugged, and then said in a half-joking tone, "That's a courtesy, you can also call me by my name Dawu directly, I prefer to let my acquaintances People are calling my name."

"Compared with the surname Dongcheng, I always think my name Dawu sounds better."

After saying some witty words in a joking tone, Dongcheng sat up a little bit, and then put on a more serious expression than before:

"Kinoshita, no, Miss Lin, I know you are a person who likes to get straight to the point."

"And I also like to get straight to the point, and don't like to say too many irrelevant greetings."

"So, let's skip the greetings for now."

"Tell me directly why you are here."

"Lin, you actually brought Kinoshita-sama to Edo, surely you didn't come to sell rice?"

"Master Dongcheng. I hope you can mobilize your subordinates to help me find where the new base of Shiranui is located in Edo."

Seeing that Dongcheng expressed that he wanted to get straight to the point very straightforwardly, Lin stopped talking nonsense and went straight to her main topic.

Although Dong Cheng told Lin just now that he could just call him by his name, after all, he has been calling him "Master Dong Cheng" for so long, and Lin couldn't change it for a while, so she simply didn't change it and continued to call him by this name. The middle-aged man is "Master Dongcheng".

"Shiranui?" Dongcheng frowned slightly.

"Master Tojo. You should know that Shiranui cooperated with the shogunate and moved their new base to Edo, right?"

"Hey, hey, how could I not know about this kind of thing."

"It's good to know." Lin nodded gently.

"What I'm more curious about is what did you do to find the location of the base in Shiranui?"

"The relationship between our Calabash House and Shiranui has always been quite bad."

Lin didn't directly explain what she was doing based on Shiranui, but as if she meant something, she said a sentence that seemed to have nothing to do with the question Dong Cheng asked just now.

However, although he didn't directly answer Dongcheng's question just now, Lin's words just now made Dongcheng realize something instantly, and raised his eyebrows suddenly.

"It seems that you are planning to do some great things here in Edo."

"Ha ha."

Dongcheng chuckled a few times.
