Chapter 224 223. Analysis of Doubts

After killing [Gunzu no Shosho] in one-on-one, Anaconda Juzo can no longer be called a threat.

The wolf was almost making progress over there.

Although his left arm was injured, he couldn't exert too much force. But fighting with weapons without armor does not require much strength, unless the enemy's flesh and blood is tougher than steel.

Otherwise, a small knife can make him bleed and cut his flesh.

The wolf had already stabbed Juzo's instep with the samurai sword in his hand.

If this bandit leader hadn't looked like he had a background in sumo wrestling, and his lower body was terrifyingly stable, he would have collapsed when the knife was inserted into the instep of his foot.

But even so, he was already roaring angrily, seemingly foreseeing his own fate.

"Damn it! Die!"

The Nodachi, which was as long as a spear, was swung fiercely by him.

But with his mobility impaired, he has lost the ability to threaten the wolf.

Lan En picked up his Ninja Sword from Masaka's body and threw it towards Anaconda Juzo.

There was a "crack" sound, and the sound of the sharp blade cutting through the flesh was swift and sharp.

The sharp blade penetrated from the back of Anaconda Juzo's thick thigh, directly penetrating the entire thigh, causing him to scream and half kneel on the ground.

The wolf caught this big flaw.

He directly stepped on the back of Nodachi's swung sword with his light body, and jumped up to Anaconda Juzo's shoulder!

His hands pulled the other person's sparse hair, causing him to raise his huge head, exposing his weakness.

Then the katana in his hand was stabbed vertically from the connection between the neck and the collarbone!

With a "puff" sound, the blood splashed like a slaughtered pig.

Lan En couldn't help but grind his teeth while watching Hanako. With this technique, the katana might have passed directly from the neck to the chest!

The huge body slowly fell down, and the wolf jumped from his head.

Shaking away the remaining blood on the knife, he passed Lan En and walked towards the depths of the inner house without looking back.

Of course Lan En didn't have any of his master's personal ninjas who were familiar with the terrain, so he followed him and headed inside.

Until Lan En saw an acquaintance again in an indoor corridor.

Nogami Inosuke.

It's just that at this time, the young and promising warrior no longer had the neat demeanor he had when he first met.

At this time, he was wearing wartime clothes, with a white cloth covering his eyes, red blood flowing out, and he sat slumped in the corner.

The wolf didn't even look at it, and was ready to pass him directly and move towards the destination.

But Lan En grabbed the ninja.

"Give him some wound medicine. He is also a samurai of the Hirata family, isn't he? And looking at him like this, it is obvious that he has never escaped from the place you want to go. It is necessary to ask for some information. ”

The wolf who wanted to be the savior originally didn't want to care about anything else, but what Lan En said was well-founded and reasonable.

The other end of the corridor looks like an empty room. But the intimate ministers of the Hirata family knew that there was a hidden Buddhist hall under the tatami there.

Inosuke was injured and fell to the ground at this position. It could only be that he was beaten out of the Buddhist hall.

The wolf took out a small medicine box from his arms, poured out a white and greenish pill, and handed it to Lan En.

“This medicine is much more effective than Ashina’s medicine.”

Lan En nodded nonchalantly and said to himself, "I don't know what the situation is like outside Ashina in Japan." There is medicine, just feed it.

But as soon as Inosuke swallowed the pill, Lan En was still shocked by the medicinal properties of the pill.

Inosuke, who was still out of breath just now, obviously started to improve after taking the pill.

Lan En felt that the effect of drinking a bottle of [Swallow] was just this.

“.The medicinal materials you have here are great.”

The demon hunter, who was somewhat accomplished in alchemy, held back a sentence for a long time.

He seemed to have inadvertently licked the palm of his hand that took the pill, and the Mentos in his mind completed the analysis in time.

The production method of this pill is ordinary, mainly because of the powerful medicinal materials. In other words, the land where medicinal herbs grow is amazing.

For Lan En, it is a concept of specialty. I can take some with me, but I can’t make a second batch when I’m out of town.

At this time, Inosuke on the ground seemed to be choking on the blood foam in his throat while recovering, and woke up with a cough.

"Cough, cough. I, is there anyone around me?"

Lan En opened his mouth. It seemed that this young warrior was really blind.

"I am Lan En, I am here with Miko's ninjas. Inosuke, tell us where Miko has gone."

The situation was made clear in a few words, and Inosuke held back his anger. Give an answer.

"Hidden Buddhist Hall, Miko, is inside. But... that illusion, that illusion can't be dealt with at all! I still have three singing seeds here that can break the illusion. Sorry, I'm too weak. Even if there are only three left, I still can't save the young master."

When Wolf heard the word 'illusion', he frowned in a rare way, showing obvious emotional fluctuations.

"Yes, Lord Butterfly?"

He asked Yizuki in a cold tone.

"Yes, yes, it was Lord Butterfly who brought the young master here. As soon as I entered, she started to attack me."

The wolf's hand had already tightened around the handle of the knife.

Lan En watched this scene calmly. He had also met all three ninjas who seemed to be of high status in the Hirata clan. The names and images of the people are also correct.

The relationship between the three ninjas is extraordinary. According to Lan En's speculation, it should be similar to that of master and apprentice.

But at the same time, he had no doubt that if his mentor really kidnapped Yuzi, the wolf would definitely not be the least bit merciful when he attacked.

In contrast, his master was probably just as ruthless in order to achieve his own goals.

This is the concept and three views that ninjas are instilled in during their training stage.

However, Lan En considers himself as a perspective that is not deeply connected with the Hirata family. What he sees now is a little more comprehensive than the wolf.

"Calm down first."

Lan En patted the wolf's hand that was holding the handle of the knife and said calmly.

"Ashina should have a reserve team, right? The Hirata clan's fire is raging into the sky. Even if the road is difficult to travel on a rainy night, they should be able to arrive at dawn. Well, it's almost here now."


"Is there any other exit from the hidden Buddhist hall? If not, then why did Butterfly grab the hostages and hide in a deserted place? She shouldn't be stupid enough to think that the bandits would put down their looting, concentrate on massacre, and kill the people outside Kill them all, and then let her take them away, right?”

“It seems that her approach is more like ‘taking the young master to avoid the rebels, waiting for reinforcements’”

After listening to Lan En's thoughts, the wolf also began to realize that something was wrong. If Madam Butterfly wanted to take away Miko, she could have done so long ago in the early stages of chaos.

"Impossible!" Inosuke retorted with rapid breathing. "If Lord Butterfly is really to protect the young master! Why did you attack me?! Why did you use illusions to scare my mother! She is the young master's personal maid!"

"Because she doesn't know if you are a spy , so she will attack anyone who wants to enter the hidden Buddhist temple indiscriminately before someone she can truly trust comes forward.”

"Spy? Are you doubting the loyalty of our Hirata retainers?!"

Even though Inosuke was seriously injured, he still shouted eagerly when talking about the samurai's loyalty being doubted.

But Lan En held him back with just one sentence.

"Then how do you explain the current situation of Pingtian Manor being so relaxed when a group of bandits broke into the door? It's not a spy, is it incompetence?"

A spy, or incompetence. No samurai would choose one of these two words to describe his group.

Lan En shook his head, not really understanding this Japanese characteristic thought.

Just patted Inosuke on the shoulder and told him to have a good rest.

"Let's go." Lan En stood up from Inosuke and walked in front of the wolf towards the room where the Buddhist hall was hidden.

While walking, he ordered the ninja behind him.

"Even if we meet and are forced to start a fight later, we have to explain clearly during the fight, you know? How come you ninjas are all like boring gourds? Don't communicate well, exchange information, and resolve doubts , do you still want to save the Hirata family together? Are you doing this? ”

Today’s third update is completed!
