Chapter 247 246. Samurai and Knights
Yamauchi Norizen's words did not cause any fluctuation in Ashina Isshin, but Mikokuro's eyes widened.
General Shi looked at the demon hunter who did not waver at all, and continued.
"Sir Genichiro, as well as the adults in Ashina City, who doesn't know that there is a problem with Senhou Temple? Who doesn't know that they are colluding with the inner government?"
"But this can Say it openly! People from Ming Dynasty, you seem to be a person who understands politics. Do you think you can say this? ”
"If we don't break our faces, Senhoji Temple will still stand by Ashina and provide money, effort and supplies. But what if we break our faces?"
Yamauchi Norizen was so angry that his fists were on the wood. There were two bangs on the floor.
This is not only irritating Lan En's "ignorance of the general situation", but also the sadness of the current predicament as a warrior.
"Ashina is besieged by the entire Japan! Every friend is precious. Yes, when those monks were cooperating with us, they were still doing business for the inner government. But if we take action, we will not even The benefits of this cooperation will be gone!"
"What is the use of Ren Xia's anger?"
Yamauchi Norizen yelled at Lan En, angrily scolding this foreigner who only cared about his own comfort and didn't care about Ashina's life or death.
Yes, he is a foreigner. How could he care about Ashina's survival?
General Shi looked at the demon hunter sitting by the wall with a look like he was looking at an enemy.
In his eyes, Lan En, who wanted to do such a thing because of his temporary chivalry, was undoubtedly an enemy who would shake the power of the Weiming Kingdom.
Lan En noticed the look in this man's eyes, but he seemed to have no feeling at all. He just turned his head and looked at the old man who was half lying lazily on the main seat.
"An uncontrollable and half-hearted collaborator will only cause trouble. I stick to my idea and ask Isshin-sama to decide."
Yamauchi Norizen also looked over with a sullen face.
But the skinny old man who was at the center of his sight seemed not to feel the tit-for-tat confrontation between the two at this time. He just looked at the demon hunter sitting by the wall with interest.
“I said, Lan En”
The old man even changed his hand to support his head to make himself lie down more comfortably.
"Just because of two guys who we can call 'friends', you are going to kill the monks at Xianfeng Temple? I don't know what the conditions are like in the temples where you have been. But in Japan, monks like them are not simple. Oh.”
Lan En’s expression did not change.
I have said before that when he gets tired of studying history in his home world, he will find some foreign history to adjust his mood.
During the Warring States Period of Japan, figures like Oda Nobunaga had to struggle with their strength and make false claims in the east before they dared to take action against the Enryaku Temple on Mount Hiei. Even before taking action, there were many opponents among his retainers.
It is enough to see that in the Japanese Middle Ages, temples were not just religious places, they were enough to be called military and political units.
The reputation of Mount Kumgang Seonbong Temple is also top-notch in Japan.
Lan En raised his eyes and looked into the interested one eye.
". Before they left, the two of them repeatedly said that they would pray for me in front of the Buddha statue in Xianfeng Temple. I told them that I did not believe in Buddhism, but they kept saying it and kept saying it. No more, it's annoying. "
The 'interest' on Ashina's face slowly disappeared, replaced by 'seriousness'.
Determination, good or bad.
As long as people show this kind of unshakable determination, they will naturally gain respect.
"I am one of the reasons why they went to Xianfeng Temple. I don't believe in Buddhism, but I appreciate it. Most of them have died in the hands of those monks, so I will go to them to collect their debts."< br>
"Even if they actually just mentioned it in the main hall of Xianfeng Temple?"
"Lord Isshin." Lan En chuckled. "It's just a small thing for someone like you to say something in the main hall of Xianfeng Temple. But for that person who just became a low-level warrior, it was an opportunity that his mother had spent her whole life begging for."
"So, yes. Even before he died, he just said to the Buddha statue in the main hall of Xianfeng Temple, 'There is a Mingguo man named Lan En, please bless him.' I also Thank you." Ashina looked at the young man in front of him intently, and the corners of his mouth grew wider without him noticing.
"Hahahahahaha!"
It was a low laugh at first, and then it became louder and louder.
"It's so rare, so rare! In today's world, we can still see such people! Butterfly! Can you think of it, ah? Can you think of it? Haha!"
Ashina Isshin asked with a smile towards his old friend below.
Madame Butterfly knocked on the cigarette pot expressionlessly, "Well, I really saw a ghost today."
Because she felt that she had some inexplicable obligations and responsibilities that others could not understand at all, and then she ignored Sanqi. You've worked hard since you were twenty-one. Isn't this kid the same as you who launched the war against the country thirty years ago? !
Should we say this is ‘karma’? Now that you are old, there is such a young man coming to Ashina.
“It makes people’s hands itch.” The skinny old man grinned, and his sharp smile was like an evil ghost!
At this time, he no longer felt half-lying lazily. Instead, when he unconsciously rubbed the handle of the knife beside him, everyone felt a sense of fear.
"You are really annoying, Lan En."
"It is a very pleasant experience to fight with you, but please forgive me, I refuse to waste energy on you until this matter is dealt with."< br>
The witcher said calmly, and the old man smiled indifferently.
"I know, that's why it's a pity."
"I also know that you brought this ninja to report to me because you wanted to pull out a force to destroy the Immortal Mine Temple. But it’s a pity that I am not the lord of Ashina, and the general will not listen to my orders.”
"You are serious, Isshin-sama!" Norizen Yamauchi immediately turned to Isshin and knelt down. "Even if you want my subordinate to commit suicide now, I will not hesitate. However, this matter is not only related to the subordinate himself, but will also harm Ashina's strength. Please forgive me for not being able to agree!"
"Hey, you I saw it too, Lan En. You made a wrong move. I wanted to come to Hirata to help you, but now Yamauchi probably won’t let you leave Hirata Manor.”
The old man spread his hands and Lan En nodded. .
"This is to be expected. I just took action after weighing the difficulties and benefits. Now it's just the 'difficulties' that are out of control."
"Yes, the 'difficulties' are out of control. ”
Ashina Isshin touched the goatee on his chin and announced with a smile.
"Then, Norizen Yamauchi and Lan En, let's have a fight to the death."
After speaking, both of them seemed calm and calm.
On the contrary, Miko Kuro, who had been listening, exclaimed in surprise.
"Eh?! How could it be possible? Isshin-sama! Shouldn't we discuss it with each other again? A fight to the death would be inevitable."
"Otherwise, Miko?" The old man, who also looked calm, interrupted the child's words without mercy.
At this moment, Butterfly grabbed the child who wanted to say something else and shook his head at him.
“The samurai of Ashina must carry out their loyalty and never allow things that endanger the national power to happen before their eyes. The knights of foreign countries must fulfill the kindness of their friends and never allow their friends to become headless blood debts after their death.”
“Both sides are holding swords, and neither side can compromise, so what else can we do?”
“You can only speak with your sword, warrior, there is glory in death, but no glory in life. Humiliation! ”
