Yiyin calmed the horse and looked at Maeda. He saw her face was angry and she was scanning the surroundings intently.
This is the first time that Yiyin has seen his interests suffer in the wild. This girl is like a tigress when she enters the forest. She has always been the one to ambush people. When has she ever suffered such a loss?
It's rare to see her intuition being wrong. While Yiyin is awe-inspiring, it's also funny to see her getting angry from embarrassment.
"caught you!"
Maeda took off his half-bow from behind his horse and shot an arrow into the grass.
Behind them, Otani Yoshitsugi and Todo Takatora rode in front of the Yoshigama. Police officer Yukimori Yamanaka felt that he was guarding everyone's back.
A figure jumped out of the grass, rolled and crawled to avoid the attack of the bow and arrow, rolled sideways to the foot of a tree, grabbed the hidden rope and climbed up.
Maeda had already mounted his horse and rushed in front of her. With a sneer, he hit her with his spear from above.
If Shiba Yiyin hadn't been told to try not to kill anyone when she went out this time, she would have stabbed her instead of smashing her.
Listening to the sound of the wind, Maeda tilted his head and flashed a dagger. The man who wanted to climb the tree had already been hit by her and stopped moving under the tree.
There were four or five figures standing on several trees, holding shurikens, bamboo bows, and daggers. Maeda took a few steps back on his horse, but did not panic.
"Who are you, how dare you attack Iga Guardian!"
Judging from the structure of the shogunate, at the local level, the power of the guardian is extremely great, almost to the point of covering the sky with one hand.
This time when they entered Iga, Akechi Mitsuhide and Nizi Katsuhisa also repeatedly emphasized to the girls that they should be tough to show their noble status.
Because apart from status, the Shiba family is nothing in Iga country.
The Shiba family now only has a territory of 3,000 koku, which is as far away as Owari. The Todo villages in Omi are a nominal territory, and the Norada war has been crippled.
Even though he was as black as Akechi Mitsuhide, he felt for a while that he was of no use there.
Therefore, when you enter Iga this time, you will use your family status to dominate others.
"Who are you? Iga is in front of you. You are trying to force your way in!"
The figure on the tree was also a little dazed by the words "Iga Guardian", and his tone was not very strong, but also a little confused.
"Bold! My master is the legitimate son of Ashikaga Ichimen Shiba, the guardian of Iga, and the general of Iga.
How dare you prevent him from entering Iga country without kneeling down to apologize!"
Having a long name sounds scary, but it depends on whether the Iga people are scared or not.
The leader obviously hesitated, looked at his men who were unconscious under the tree, and said.
"I can't make the decision. I need to ask my sister for instructions. Can you let me see her first?"
Maeda Yoshikatsu turned back and looked at Yoshigan, and Yoshigan said.
"You save people first and ask the leader here to see me."
The figure on the tree said something to others, and then a person jumped down from the tree and disappeared into the dense forest in a few steps.
The figure jumped down from the tree, carefully picked up the injured person on the ground, and looked carefully.
Seeing that she was fine and just knocked unconscious, he breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Yiyin.
Yiyin was also observing her. She was wearing a dark tights with some camouflaged grass green patch stripes on it.
When she raised her head, she had small eyes, a big cherry mouth, soft eyebrows, black pupils, and a small upturned nose. There was a bit of beauty in her wildness, and looking at her timid expression, she looked like a girl next door.
"Who are you?"
"I am Mukuro, the legitimate daughter of the Fujibayashi family, and you are the guardian of Iga?"
Fujibayashi was a little nervous, stroking his short hair with his hand, and said.
"impossible!"
At this time, a figure swept out from the woods and stood in front of her, protecting her.
"elder sister?"
"Back off! The guardian of Iga is the Nimu family, and there is no reason for a man to be a guardian! These people are trying to trick you into showing up, retreat!"
Yiyin originally wanted to retort, but when he saw the appearance of the person coming, he was so surprised that he forgot to speak.
The visitor looked exactly like Fujibayashi Muku, but the provocation in his eyes and the sneer on his lips made them look completely different.
Moreover, she has long hair, while Fujibayashi Mukuro has short hair. Even if they are dressed the same and look average, they can tell that this is a female leopard.
Yiyin was still stunned, and Nizi Shengjiu behind him spoke out to refute.
"Nonsense! The duty of guardian can still be fake! The general just dismissed the guardian of Iga of the Niki family a few days ago, and was succeeded by Yoshigin of the Shiba family. This matter has become known to the world.
You don’t know, it’s because you and other savages are ignorant, how can you insult the guardian and seek death!”
After she finished speaking, the four Ji warriors raised their spears and gathered strength, as if they were willing to humiliate their subjects to death.
Fujibayashi was startled and quickly pulled his sister to bow and apologize.
"I'm sorry, this is my sister Fujibayashi Xing. She has a bit of a temper. She didn't mean it. Please forgive me."
"Don't hold me, Ming. Go quickly. Believe whatever others say. Run quickly."
Seeing the two sisters pulling there, not caring about the injured on the ground, Yiyin's mouth twitched, is it really okay for you to guard the border like this?
Nizi Shengjiu said something in his ear.
"Shiba-gozen, they seem to be twin girls."
Yiyin's eyes narrowed, are they twins?
In this medieval feudal society, people were most superstitious, and one of the taboos against twin girls was one of them.
It is said that the twins are unknown. Once twins are born to any family, one of them will be abandoned in the mountains and eaten by wild beasts. This is called heaven's harvest.
Few people will raise twin girls. Often, only the girl will be kept, and the other will be discarded.
The two sisters in front of me look exactly the same, but they are not twins. They are quite good-looking, which is a bit eye-catching.
The man who had been knocked unconscious by Maeda groaned and woke up.
"Sister, what are you doing?"
Watching the two sisters, one trying to bow and the other trying to run away, struggling there, the woman who woke up looked confused and asked.
Fujibayashi Xing saw that she had been dragged and pestered by her sister for a long time, and the warrior Hime across from her had no intention of taking action. At this time, she felt that the other party did not mean any harm.
She felt disgraced when questioned by her subordinates, so she kicked her.
"Why are you pretending to be dead? Get up."
Fujibayashi was surprised. Seeing that the man was fine, he knew that his sister was not serious, but he still looked at her angrily.
"Sister, the fourth girl was knocked unconscious just now, don't kick her out and cause trouble."
"What can happen to her thick skin and thick flesh?"
Fujibayashi Xing waved his hands carelessly.
Yiyin was speechless.
In the shogunate, I saw a lot of human beings who looked like monkeys if they put their hair on them. Now when I meet a pure and natural idiot, I don’t know how to talk.
"Who are you Fujibayashi Shoho?"
No matter how seductive it is, business matters are important now, Yiyin asked with a stern face.
The Fujibayashi sisters looked at each other, and Fujibayashi Mukuro spoke.
"It's my mother."
"Take me to see her. This matter is related to the survival of the Fujibayashi family. I hope you won't make a mistake."
When Yiyin was serious, his words naturally brought out the murderous aura above the battlefield, shocking the two sisters.
They looked at each other again. The twins understood each other and nodded silently.
