I Was a Swordsman in Ancient Japan

The latest website: "Unexpectedly, you are also a temperamental person." Ogata smiled.

"Hahahaha! In terms of being a man of temperament, I can't compare to you, brother Ogata, who dared to kill the master!"

Although I don't know what Makimura Yahachi looks like, this does not prevent Ogata from chatting with this neighbor.

After chatting for the past few days, Ogata unexpectedly discovered that he and this pastoral village were surprisingly able to chat.

It is also thanks to the existence of Mucun that he is not too boring these days.

The life here is very different from the life in the prison car and the prison of Tatsuno Fan before.

Not only is it noisy, but it also stinks. The air was not only cloudy and stuffy, but also had a sour smell all the time.

And the food is quite average.

There are only two meals a day, and each meal only provides some dried radish and porridge that can barely satisfy the hunger.

In fact, Ogata doesn't have much opinion on food.

Ogata's biggest complaint is the environment here.

This noisy environment, where people are arguing, swearing, and spitting all the time, has already made Ogata feel like his head is about to explode.

"Ugh……"

After letting out a helpless sigh, Ogata, who was sitting on the edge of the wall adjacent to the cage where Mucun lived, turned his head and said to Mucun:

"Makimura, do you know why the government locked us prisoners together?"

"Oh, this. I know a little bit about it."

"What? You know?"

Ogata's question just now was just a random question out of boredom, and he didn't have any expectations for Mucun's answer.

However—Makimura's answer successfully exceeded Ogata's expectations.

Ogata, who never expected Mucun to know some inside information, hurriedly asked:

"Makimura,

Tell me what you know inside. "

"Although I know some inside information, in fact I don't know much."

"Our group will soon be sent to a certain island in the south of Kii."

"Island?"

Just when Ogata wanted to continue asking, there was a loud explosion at the end of the corridor outside the cage.

That was the sound of the prison door being pushed open.

Because the gate of this prison is a bit old, it took a lot of effort to push it open, and there was a loud bang every time the door was pushed or pulled.

Therefore, every time someone entered and exited the prison, there would be this noisy sound, and everyone in the prison had already seen it.

Many people thought that it was lunch time and it was time to serve, so they all lay in front of their respective cage doors, waiting for the jailers to bring today's lunch.

However, some people, such as Ogata, frowned slightly.

Because Ogata noticed——it shouldn't be time for dinner yet.

And judging from the loudness of the footsteps, it seems that there are too many people entering the prison this time compared to before...

When Ogata was wondering, Mucun, who lived next door to him, murmured in a low voice that only he could hear clearly:

"Is it time..."

It didn't take long for Ogata's doubts to be answered.

These people who rushed into the prison did not come to deliver food at all.

They didn't hold steaming porridge in their hands.

Instead, they held iron cannons or long guns, and hemp ropes.

And these people who rushed into the prison were not the jailers who met every day in the past.

It was a soldier in battle armor.

These soldiers rushed into the prison at an extremely fast speed, and then filled the corridors of the prison along each corridor of the prison.

Many prisoners were taken aback by these soldiers who broke in suddenly.

Some timid people—such as the wretched Yutaro who lives opposite Ogata? Just kneel down in the position of Dogeza, and kowtow to the soldiers standing in front of his cage? Snot and tears He begged for mercy? One mouthful of "Master Samurai", begging these soldiers to spare his life.

There were also some prisoners who boldly yelled at these soldiers:

"Are you going to kill us all in prison?!"

"Is the current shogunate corrupted like this? They don't take the prisoners to the execution ground anymore? Instead, they put the prisoners to death in the prison!"

"It's despicable!"

"I will be like Ping Jiangmen, even if I die, I will curse you forever!"

...

Some prisoners cry? Some prisoners roar.

Just when the prisoners were making noise? An angry shout sounded, instantly overpowering all the noises in the prison:

"Stop making noise!!"

The roar of this shout was quite astonishing. All the prisoners, whether they were crying or roaring, were frightened by this shout, and then closed their mouths.

The owner of this angry shout is a middle-aged man with a rather ferocious face.

The brown armor worn by this middle-aged man is quite gorgeous, and he can tell at a glance that he must be a senior general in the army.

"We didn't come to kill you!"

Thanks to the general's loud voice, everyone in this prison can hear his voice clearly.

"Now, we're going to tie and blindfold you all? And take you somewhere!"

"Give me an obedient cooperation!"

"As long as there are people who don't cooperate obediently, swords and iron cannons will serve you!"

"Open the door! Get these prisoners out!"

The general's last words were addressed to his subordinates.

After receiving this order from the general, the soldiers took out the keys one after another and opened the doors of each cage. Then they filed in and tied the hands of the prisoners in each cage with thick and long hemp ropes. Cover the prisoner's eyes with a black cloth? Make the prisoner unable to see.

The process of the soldiers tying up all the prisoners was very smooth? None of the prisoners made any uncooperative behavior.

Prisoners are not fools, after all.

These soldiers are holding real things in their hands.

So everyone cooperated obediently and let the soldiers tie their hands and blindfold their eyes.

The moment his eyes were covered with black cloth, the two soldiers standing on the left and right sides of Ogata pushed Ogata forward.

Because of his blindness, Ogata could only let the soldiers behind him push him forward or to the left.

Not long after, Xu conveniently felt the warm sunshine hitting his body.

It is already the beginning of spring, and the sun in the early spring hits the body, which is extraordinarily comfortable.

However, before Ogata had time to enjoy the long-lost sunshine, he felt himself being pushed into a closed space.

Although he couldn't see anything, Ogata was very familiar with this "closed" feeling - Ogata was sure that he must have been pushed into a carriage.

Sure enough, after Ogata was pushed into the confined space, he heard the sound of the door being closed.

Then his body suddenly began to shake back and forth, and the familiar sound of wheels turning came to Ogata's ears.
