"The sound of this flute..." Yu Qiuping was leaning against the wall and observing the Takeda Army's camp, but was suddenly attracted by the sound of this flute.
"What's wrong, Your Highness?" Masayuki Sanada saw Yu Qiuhei's abnormality, "Have you ever heard this song?"
"No...but this melody..." Yu Qiuping frowned and suddenly felt his head hurt inexplicably. He turned around, leaned against the battlements, slowly slid down, covered his head with his hands as he was at a loss, and murmured to himself: "It sounds so familiar..."
He seemed to remember something, but he seemed to remember nothing. The memory in his mind seemed to touch something, but the thing flashed like a flexible little rabbit, making people unable to catch him, which made people feel even more uncomfortable.
·
Outside the city, Takeda Shingen's reaction was much stronger than Yu Qiuping. He was originally sitting safely on the marching stool thinking about tomorrow's battle situation, but he was stunned when he heard the sound of the flute. After listening to a few breaths, he immediately stood up in great horror and stared blankly in the direction where the sound of the flute came.&1t;i>&1t;/i>
"Master, what's wrong? What's wrong with this flute sound?" Masano Takasaka, who was accompanying Takeda Shingen, also narrowed his eyes and listened for a while. "The melody is peaceful, as if an elder is telling a beautiful story, but it has a bold and unruly aura. I'm afraid it's Yi Yun Yehe. Although this song is really good, why does the lord..."
"Don't talk." Before Takasaka Masatoshiro finished speaking, Takeda Shingen suddenly interrupted his subordinates very rudely, made a gesture of silence, and continued to listen to the sound of the flute with all concentration. Takasaka Masatoshiro rarely saw Takeda Shingen so disobediently - the last time he was on Kawaakashima, when he heard the news of Takeda Nobuhiro's death.
"This..." Masatoshi Takasaka couldn't help but be stunned, not understanding what's special about the sound of the flute. However, the flute player dared to play the flute on the mountain next to the army, either a madman or a knight.
"How is that possible..." After listening to another paragraph, the melody of the flute returned to the initial tone.&1t;i>&1t;/i>
"Master, what's wrong?" This time, Takasaka Masatoshi was afraid of disturbing Takeda Shingen to listen to the sound of the flute, so he deliberately lowered his voice, leaned into Takeda Shingen's ear and asked in a low voice, "Lord has heard this song before? What's the story?"
"Yes, I've heard it. And this song..." Takeda Shingen was still staring at the direction where the flute sound came. His voice became a little erratic, and he replied softly like a dream, "Including the creators in the world, only three people have heard it."
"Oh? Is it an old friend?" Takasaka Masatoshi was slightly excited when he heard this. "It's quite elegant to meet an old friend in the wilderness. Do you need to send someone to invite the old friend down?"
Takeda Shingen did not answer, and the expression on his face suddenly became extremely strange and ferocious, and even his legs began to tremble, and the match he was holding in his hands fell to the ground weakly. Takasaka Masatoshi had never seen such panic in Takeda Shingen. Even when it was a battle between Kawaakashima and Takeda Shingen's original formation was about to be broken through by Kenshin Uesugi, Takeda Shingen was calm and composed.&1t;i>&1t;/i>
What's wrong?
After a while, Takeda Shingen finally gradually woke up from his trance. He pinched his face with his hands, as if he wanted to confirm whether it was an illusion, but in the end he shook his head powerlessly. The scenes that made him doubted kept waving in front of his eyes, and suddenly they were connected into pieces.
He spoke slowly, not knowing whether he was answering Masatoshi Takasaka's question or talking to himself.
"But the other two should have been gone."
·
A moment later, on the path up the mountain, Takeda Shingen was taking Takasaka Masatoshi, several guards and a dozen ninjas rushed to the mountain with torches. Takeda Shingen's illness could not support such action, so he had to rely on the two guards to carry him forward. Takasaka Masatoshi had already arranged more ninjas to cover Takeda Shingen's side and search for the mountains.&1t;i>&1t;/i>
"Lord, why do you need to do this? Your body can't be so troubled anymore, and it's too dangerous!" Takasaka Masatoshi directed the guards to surround Takeda Shingen to avoid anyone ambushing Takeda Shingen on the mountain. While letting the ninja spread the vast scope of investigation and beware of whether anyone ambushing. "If you want to see that person, you will send someone to invite him down, why do you need to go up the mountain yourself!"
"No, with his personality, since he dares to play the flute here, there will naturally be a way to escape, and you can't catch it." Takeda Shingen shook his head and said in a deep voice, "Since he is playing this song here, he must be going to see me. If I don't come, he will see me not moving, and all he comes is ninja, and he will leave immediately. Only when I come will he be able to wait on the mountain." Takeda Shingen shook his head and listened to the uninterrupted flute sound, groping the source of the flute sound.
"But if he really wants to lead his lord up the mountain, it is very likely that he has bad intentions. What should he do if he wants to assassinate his lord?" Takasaka Masatoshi was already anxious and sweating provoked Takeda Shingen to persuade him to go down the mountain. However, Takeda Shingen just kept shaking his head and kept urging his guards to walk faster.&1t;i>&1t;/i>
"I know he just wants to kill me, and I know why he is here to kill me now, so it won't be so easy for him to succeed." Takeda Shingen smiled, "There are so many guards and ninjas beside me, and there are many ninjas searching mountains farther away. How can he succeed easily? There are so many people in the world who want to kill me. If I were so easy to die, I would have been assassinated long ago."
"But I don't understand why the lord took risks in person? Is it that important to see that old friend?" Takasaka Masatoshi still didn't give up and followed Takeda Shingen and asked after asking.
"Yes." Takeda Shingen replied in a deep voice without hesitation, "Anyway, I only have three months of life left. If I can't see the flute player with my own eyes, I will die with regret. Because this means too much. If I die, I will not be lost for three years. The position of the family governor is inherited by Nobukatsu, and Shiro will temporarily take over the position of the family governor."
"Who is playing the flute? Why is the lord reluctant to say it?" Takasaka Masashinobu was even more surprised to hear that Shingen Takeda actually thought that seeing that person was more important than life, and even arranged his funeral.&1t;i>&1t;/i>
"I'm not sure, but I guess it's that man. I went up the mountain to determine whether it was him." Takeda Shingen urged the guards next to him again anxiously, as if he was worried that the sound of the flute would disappear in the next second.
"Who is it? Lord? Who are you guessing it? Why don't you say it?" Takasaka Masatoshi was so crazy that he was kept in a trap by Takeda Shingen, and his tone became quick and reproachful.
"I'm afraid of shaking the morale of the army." Takeda Shingen seemed to have no intention of saying much to Takasaka Masatoshi, and just replied lightly.
"Only if the next person knows it, how can it shake the morale of the army? I will guarantee to keep my mouth shut!" Takasaka Masatoshi asked again.
"This is not a question of whether you keep it confidential." Takeda Shingen shook his head resolutely, and his eyes suddenly lit up. At the end of the mountain road, you can see a somewhat dilapidated wooden house - the sound of the flute came from that direction. After Takeda Shingen and others saw this wooden house, the sound of the flute immediately stopped abruptly, as if it hints Takeda Shingen - the sound of the sound of the sound here.&1t;i>&1t;/i>
"Law, wait! Be careful of the enemy's attack!" When he saw Takeda Shingen about to step forward, Takasaka Masashitsune stepped forward and blocked Takeda Shingen, and at the same time signaled the guards around to protect Takeda Shingen behind him. Then he made several gestures, and the ninjas around him immediately extinguished their torches and rushed towards the wooden house.
However, the enemy attack that Takasaka Masatoshi was worried about did not appear. Soon after, several ninjas who went to the wooden house to investigate quickly came out of the wooden house and returned to Takasaka Masatoshi and Takeda Shingen, and lowered their voices to report, "Report to the lord that the wooden house is confirmed to be safe and there is no one."
"Let's go." Takeda Shingen ordered in a deep voice, and walked forward without saying a word. The guards around him quickly followed and protected Takeda Shingen tightly. In order to avoid attacks in the woods, Takasaka Masatoshi ordered everyone to extinguish the torches to prevent the fire from illuminating Takeda Shingen's position and giving the attackers an opportunity to take advantage of it.&1t;i>&1t;/i>
After entering the wooden house, Takasaka Masashinobu and the guards and the ninjas breathed a sigh of relief. The closed room was much safer than the forest outside, because the people outside could not see the standing conditions of the people inside, so they could not attack Takeda Shingen. Takeda Shingen immediately looked around. Because the night was dark and the wind was high and the moonlight was not very bright, it was impossible to see what the wooden house looked like. However, according to the general layout of the wooden house and the faint smell of incense inside, it was confirmed that it was home to elegant people and it was not abandoned. However, the arrangement in front of him surprised Takeda Shingen. He tried hard to smell the smell of incense, and felt a buzzing sound in his brain.
Takeda Shingen walked forward without looking back, pushed open a door, and walked into a room that looked like a study. Several ninjas immediately stood at the corners of the room and were on guard in case anyone attacked.
There is a desk next to the window of the study. The window is covered with paper. Through the blurred moonlight of the window paper, a piece of paper with words can be vaguely seen on the desk. Takeda Shingen stood at the table, supported it with both hands on the table, leaned down and squinted for a few glances, but the light was too dark and could not be seen clearly. A guard beside him took out a flint, lit the torch in his hand, and illuminated Takeda Shingen.&1t;i>&1t;/i>
I saw eight big characters written on the rice paper in bold but unrestrained but freely handwriting.
·
The disaster has been decided
Destiny should not be lost
·
The moment Takeda Shingen saw the handwriting, his pupils suddenly contracted, and his whole body trembled like a spasm. He woke up instantly and shouted "Extinguish the torch quickly", while almost trying to use his hands to knock out the torch in the guard's hand.
然而,还是迟了一步.
·
"Bang".
The sound of iron cannons fired outside the window. The projectile broke through the window paper and shot straight to the chest of Takeda Shingen standing in front of the table covered with rice paper. His position was facing the window.
The fire lights in the house actually meant that someone was going to watch the handwriting on the table. And the one standing in the best observation position was naturally Takeda Shingen.
