He didn't know how long he had slept for, but Du Fei was woken up by a burst of snoring. He saw those guys still sleeping on the ground, showing no intention of waking up.
He looked at the day outside and kicked the two people on the ground: "Hey! Kiyobei! Miki! Get up!"
The two of them were still lying on the ground unwilling to move. In the end, Du Fei simply poured a few bowls of cold water on their heads to wake them up.
"Let's go! Hurry up! There's still a long road ahead! If you delay any longer, I'll do it again!" Under Du Fei's intimidation, the two of them finally got rid of the vicious cycle of standing up and lying down and standing up and lying down again.
Du Fei bowed lightly to the bottom of the table: "Thank you for your hospitality! Mr. Shimai! We are on our way!" He shouted several times before he saw a strong hand stretch out from the bottom of the table and wave it.
Farewell.
Seijuro and Miki actually drank the least, but they couldn't get rid of the alcohol. They didn't go far before they sat down on the ground: "I can't walk! I really can't walk! I feel so dizzy!"
Du Fei looked at the two people who were like mud and could make plans. He stood on a high place and looked into the distance. He saw a towering fortress in the distance, and the flag hanging on it didn't seem to be the flag of the Ryuzoji family.
"Hey! Seibei! Wake up!" Du Fei kicked him hard: "That fortress doesn't seem to belong to the Ryuzoji family. Have we entered the territory of another daimyo?"
"Ah~~stop kicking me~~." Kiyobei didn't even want to open his eyes.
Du Fei had no choice but to kick Miki again: "Miki! Cheer up! Come and see the daimyo's castle in front of you!"
Although Miki was all sticky, he finally stood up and took a look: "That's the castle of the Otomo family~~ They are the sworn enemies of the Ryuzoji family~ By the way~~ It seems that they have broken up with the Ryuzoji family recently." After finishing speaking,
He shrank again and fell asleep back to back with Kiyohei.
Suddenly, there was a rapid sound of horse hooves coming from far away! The two people who were sleeping soundly on the ground jumped up from the ground without knowing what happened! With lightning speed, they rushed to the trees on the roadside, and they kept going.
Waved to Du Fei: "Come here quickly!"
But Du Fei's stubborn temper rose again: Why should I hide? I want to see who is coming, with such a big posture. As a veteran in the battlefield, he can tell that there are at least hundreds of riders!
After a while, a large group of cavalry wearing large armor roared over! They were all wearing yellow armor, and they also wore suits with a circular family crest on the outside, and they all wore crescent helmets on their heads.
He wears a ribbed helmet with a flag marking the emblem of his master's family on his back. He looks very powerful and majestic.
The leader was about forty years old. What was surprising was that he was a lame! His legs seemed to be unable to move and he could only sit on a specially made carriage. He looked extremely weird, and his hair was
He is as yellow as straw, his face is very long and slender, his eyebrows are as thick as two big brushes, his eyes are as bright as thunder, and he has an aura of calmness and authority.
When he led the cavalry team past Du Fei, he looked back and saw that the man on the roadside showed no fear. He secretly praised in his heart: This man must not be a thing in the pond!
But he obviously had urgent matters to deal with, so he didn't stop at all. He led this large group of cavalry and rushed straight towards the Ryuzoji family's Saga Castle!
Du Fei stared at the cavalry going away, and kept muttering in his heart: Look at that man's legs being disabled, but he looks like a leader! It's not simple! I just don't know his name.
He shouted into the bushes: "Come out! They are already far away!"
Only then did Qinghei and Miki emerge from the bushes with their heads peeping out: "Master is master, how brave you are!"
"Who was the guy in the carriage who just passed by? Do you know?"
A look of admiration immediately appeared on Kiyohei's face: "Oh! Are you talking about the person who led the army just now? That is the general Totsugi Renren of the Otomo family! Even though he can't move his legs, he is the leader of all Japan. He is a famous general who can be counted! It is said that in addition to being a god in military skills, he is also very powerful in martial arts. I have admired him since I was a child~~"
"What are you talking about!" Miki was a little unhappy after hearing this: "Compared with Enchengji Nobuyoshi, he is far behind! He is a cripple, how can he have strong martial arts? I think it is just spreading rumors! I I bet he can’t take more than fifty moves against any of the three giants of Longzuo Temple!”
The two people started arguing, and Du Fei suddenly shouted: "There are people behind you!" As soon as Qinghei and Miki finished speaking, they hid in the bushes again and shivered.
Du Fei originally wanted to scare the two of them, but he didn't expect that a man actually came up on horseback.
When Du Fei saw it, he turned out to be a boy of eleven or twelve years old. He didn't know how he got on this tall horse. He was holding a long scroll (a kind of long sword) that was taller than him. Wearing a colorful and twisted piece of bamboo armor that looked like homemade, and a headband with a clan emblem tied on his head, it looked very much like someone riding a horse.
He seemed very angry when he saw Du Fei's nonchalant look: "Why don't you bow when you meet the best samurai in Japan?"
"I'm sorry~~Your Excellency is too short~I didn't see it~~Maybe I will see it in a few years when you are taller~" Du Fei tried his best to hold back his laughter.
"Humph!" the young man said angrily, "After I make a name for myself on the battlefield, you people will be afraid of me! By the way, did you see a group of cavalry passing by?"
Du Fei turned around and said nothing.
"You! How dare you be so polite to me! Do you know who I am?" The young man raised the long scroll in his hand and threatened.
"Of course I don't know~~You never said~You don't even tell others your name when asking for directions~~It seems like you don't understand the rules." Du Fei wanted to tease him, so he casually said: "A When a samurai asks someone for directions, no matter who he is asking for, he must announce his name loudly first! This is the rule! It seems that your experience is still inexperienced~"
"Ah?" The boy was immediately confused: "Really? Why haven't I heard from my mother?"
"There are so many things you haven't heard of!" Du Fei suddenly became serious: "When a regular warrior asks someone for directions, he must take a handful of his horse's mane and give it to others as a thank you gift! Legend has it that this is A samurai custom. You don’t even know this? Are you a samurai?”
"I~~I~" the young man began to stutter: "Of course I am! I am Takahashi Dohu, the son of Takahashi Shoun of Otomo's family! I went to follow Lord Totsugi's cavalry to kill the enemy!"
Then he said to himself: "Okay, I have already reported my name, and now I want to grab a handful of the horse's mane for you~~" As he said that, he grabbed a lot of it from the horse's neck.
Horse mane down!
How could that horse withstand such torture? It turned around with a roar and started galloping! The young man named Takahashi Tōtora on the horse held the reins desperately while shouting: "Wow!~ You
Lie to me~~I can’t spare you~~”
"Haha~~ You want to go to the battlefield before you have a sword? Go back and reflect on it!" Du Fei couldn't help but laugh loudly. He liked this child a little.
