"The current age is... fifteen years old." An old woman pointed at the unconscious boy and said.
The current location is above the root.
A hummingbird flapped its wings and flew up and down around the boy.
"This is a good change, Alaya." the hummingbird said.
"I understand." The old nanny nodded, "This phenomenon means that the space that can be manipulated is larger than when it was launched in Italy."
"The anti-pollution process cannot be accelerated, and we cannot afford the price." Hummingbird's tone was solemn.
"...I know, then, just like last time, just use this age for placement."
"No objection."
"So, go ahead and get this history..."
"Your name is......"
............
The second half of 1853.
Mutsu Country.
Edo Castle Shirakawa Domain.
A young man was walking in a raincoat.
"Ah, who am I..." The young man was worried.
He walked among the mountains and fields, only knowing his own name, but he did not know where he came from, let alone where he was going.
I find myself in this place inexplicably, even my clothes were found.
"Ah, it's a fork in the road."
Two intersections appeared in front of the boy.
"Let's go to the left. My name has confirmed this choice." The young man smiled nonchalantly and made a decision quickly.
"Hey, it's a bit cold." The young man touched his arm and smacked his mouth.
Japan is in a period of turmoil right now.
That American general drove a big black boat to Uraga Kamoi Village, and then forcibly contacted the government.
This behavior caused chaos throughout Japan.
Before the enemy arrived, they began to disorganize themselves.
However, those things have nothing to do with the young man here for the time being.
The young man clearly remembered his name and age, but knew nothing else.
Anno Zuomura, fifteen years old.
Now I am in Shirakawa Domain.
"There seems to be a village ahead?" The young man tended to be thin. In this era, apart from dignitaries, it was unlikely that there would be wealthy civilians.
However, although the young man is thin, he is still quite agile.
There was a faint shadow of the village in front of him. Zuocun climbed up a big tree on the roadside three times and looked into the distance.
"There is indeed a village!"
Gu~~~
Holding his stomach, Zuo Cun scratched his head.
"Try for a while and see if you can get some food. It would be even better if you could let me stay for one night!"
Jumping down from the tree, Annuo continued to move forward.
It was already sunset in the west, and the cold air of late autumn was gradually coming, and Annuo shivered.
The village ahead is at least an hour or two away from Annuo's current location.
"Hurry up." Annuo rubbed his hands and trotted all the way.
...
We walked for a while, probably because Annuo was running at a trot and was moving faster.
"Alas! There seems to be someone in front of me!" In front of Annuo, on the road, a man in a cloak was moving forward.
"Well... I'm very short." Annuo wanted to go up and say hello, but he froze in place.
The short figure had a knife on his waist.
"Well......"
I'm a little scared, so I might as well not follow him, just stay far behind.
The current situation makes Annuo feel a little discouraged.
Since he is carrying a knife, he is definitely not a good person.
And now because of the Black Ship Incident, the whole country is in turmoil. Because of this incident, the number of bandits has increased sharply, and even bandits in some small places can suppress those who follow it.
Although the person in front is short, what if he is a bandit?
An Nuo did not choose to go up, but fell far behind.
But at this time, the figure with the knife in front seemed to hear some noise and turned his head.
"Hey!" Annuo was startled and stood up straight subconsciously.
But when he saw the person's appearance clearly, he suddenly felt relaxed.
That man was not born short, but a child.
Still a girl.
The girl put her hand on the hilt of the sword and looked at Annuo from a distance with some vigilance.
"Who are you?" The little girl's voice was very nice.
"Me, calm down, I'm just a passerby." Annuo took two steps back.
If that little girl swordsman were to charge at me, he would definitely turn around and run away now.
"Ahead is Zuodaoli Village. Are you not from that village?" the girl asked.
"No, but look, I don't have any weapons or anything on me. I don't mean any harm." An Nuo was on the verge of tears. The person with the knife was either a bandit or a ronin. No matter what the identity of this child was, he couldn't mess with him.
Get up, just run away.
But if I run away, I will be hungry again today. Finally, there is a village in front of me, and I don’t want to give up...
The girl in the white-haired cloak took two steps forward, took a closer look at Annuo, and then put her hand down from the handle of the knife.
Annuo breathed a sigh of relief and continued to explain: "I just want to see what kind of village is in front?"
"Zuodaoli Village." the little girl replied.
"Yes, Zuodaoli Village, go there, see if you can get some food, and then stay overnight." An Nuo was a little confused, "That's all, there is no malice at all."
The girl nodded: "I believe you for the time being."
"Thank you, thank you." Annuo smiled and nodded.
"I am a resident of Zuodaoli Village. I am studying with a teacher outside now. I want to come back to see my hometown today." The little girl said as she looked at Annuo who was walking over.
Although Annuo got close to the girl, he always kept himself out of the range of the girl's knife.
He looked at the knife on the girl's waist: "I can almost guess what you learned..."
The girl didn't speak, she just kept a considerable distance from Annuo and moved forward.
Annuo didn't like to talk much either, so the two of them just walked without saying a word.
Suddenly, the little girl stopped.
Annuo didn't dare to move. The one holding the knife was the boss, so he didn't dare to move.
The little girl groped around in her arms, took out a piece of cake, and handed it to An Nuo.
"Huh?" An Nuo was a little dazed.
"I heard the sound of your stomach."
"..." An Nuo stretched out his hand tremblingly and took the girl's cake.
"The favor of a meal will be repaid one day!" Without saying anything else, Annuo held the cake in front of his chest and looked at the girl with some discomfort.
He had been wandering for several days, and this was the first time someone took the initiative to give him food.
"You eat first." The little girl pursed her lips.
An Nuo nodded and bit into the cake.
A few tears fell, but there was no time to make Annuo sad now.
After finishing the biscuit with tears in his eyes, Annuo coughed twice.
"Can I ask your name?" Annuo looked at the girl with serious eyes, "As I said, a favor will be repaid one day."
"My name is Anno Zuomura. I am fifteen years old. Please give me your advice." Anno bowed deeply to the girl.
"My name is Okita Souji. I am eleven years old. Please give me your advice."
