The Multiverse Starting from White Deer Plain

"Tanabe-senpai is from Kyushu?"

"I also yearn for Kyushu, but it's a pity that my studies are so heavy now..."

While dancing with Ryuko Tanabe, Bai Gui also heard Ryuko Tanabe mention some customs and habits of Kyushu, so he became a little enlightened.

Kyushu Island once belonged to the Satsuma Domain.

The Korean envoy who once sent an envoy to Japan wrote a book "Dongchalu", which records: "The people of Satsuma are all faith-based. If a man has a beautiful wife and concubine and misses him, he will not hesitate to stay for a night to comfort his heart. .”

To put it simply, the custom of "borrowing wives" was very popular in Satsuma Domain.

This book was written nearly a hundred years ago and is extremely credible.

The Japanese women in the Satsuma Domain are more open-minded than the average Japanese women, and it is normal for Tanabe Ryuko to be like this.

"I will go home in half a month. Since you like Kyushu Island, I will invite you when the time comes. Don't refuse..." Gradually, Tanabe Ryuko almost snuggled into Bai Gui's arms, and the two of them People dance half-hug each other, with ambiguous postures.

"sure!"

Bai Gui secretly warned himself that after returning, he would resolutely refuse any opportunity to meet Ryuko Tanabe. The warm air blew on his ears, making him feel warm and itchy.

In the eyes of Tanabe Ryuko, I'm afraid he is the prey.

Too uncomfortable!

After a while, suddenly, the lights came on.

But the dance music came to an end, and the dance ended accordingly.

Tanabe Ryuko smiled, stood on tiptoes, like a dragonfly touching water, kissed Bai Gui gently on the cheek, gathered up her clothes and left the dance hall, walked to Mori Ogai's side, chatted and laughed for a while, He left with an elderly female attendant.

"Playing hard-to-get?"

Bai Gui narrowed his eyes. If he were really a young man, he would probably be fascinated by Tanabe Ryuko's combination of punches. He really thought that love was coming, and then he could not sleep, looking forward to love endlessly..., but he had long ago Seen through everything.

He took out the handkerchief from his tie and wiped the hickey clean.

"Brother Dongping, let's go!"

Seeing that Saburo Tohei had just finished talking and laughing with a female student in sailor uniform and waved goodbye, Bai Gui also came over and invited him to leave with him.

"She is from the Chinese ethnic group in Kyoto. Once I marry her, she will be transformed!"

As the two of them walked, Saburo Tohei whispered, looking excited.

However, while speaking, he did not mention the noble girl's surname to Bai Gui, which was obviously a precautionary measure. He is a concubine. Although his father is a high-ranking official in the county, how can he be compared with the Chinese in Kyoto.

"Then congratulations in advance to Brother Dongping for marrying into a wealthy family."

Bai Gui congratulated you.

This is not necessarily impossible. Saburo Tohei is the deputy minister, so he has qualifications. After entering Tokyo University, if he graduates, he will also be an indispensable talent in Japan. Marrying a noble girl will not be inappropriate.

"Where, where."

"Brother Miwa is still more skilled. You even defeated Ryuko Tanabe..."

There were already many carriages waiting at the gate of Bieye.

The two got into the carriage.

"Find a hotel nearby."

Bai Gui said to the carriage driver. Shibuya area is a bit far from Hachioji City. With the speed of the carriage, it is probably late at night, and there are not many places with street lights on the road. It is still a bit unsafe to drive late at night.

So it's best to go to a hotel to rest for a night.

"Just a moment, gentlemen."

The coachman nodded, waved his whip, and the open carriage drove away smoothly.

Soon after, when it was completely dark, they arrived at a two-story attic hotel. The hostess of the hotel led Bai Gui and Tohei Saburo to the second floor, where there were prepared beds.

When I first went up the stairs, heavy raindrops fell from the sky, and a waterfall hung from the eaves.

It's raining.

Bai Gui was secretly glad that he and Tohei Saburo chose to stay in a nearby hotel. Otherwise, if they really rushed back to Tokyo, they would probably be caught in the rain at least once.

Not long after, the hostess came up, holding a small stove on the wooden table with charcoal lit, and a flat-bottomed iron pot filled with extremely fragrant Koshu stew.

Koshu stew is a famous Japanese dish. The so-called Koshu refers to the old Kingdom of Kai, which is now Yamanashi Prefecture, and was the territory of the Takeda family during the Warring States Period. Koshu grapes are abundant here and can be used to make white wine, also called Koshu wine.

The boiling soup exudes the aroma of wine, and inside is tumbling fish, some sliced ​​beef, large roots (radish), and some side vegetables.

"Would you two gentlemen have a share?"

the hostess asked.

If it hadn't been served, the two of them might not have had the desire to eat, and they would have eaten almost enough in Betsuno, but now the Koshu stew in the flat iron pot is really exciting.

After taking out five coins, the plate of Koshu cooking was placed on the low wooden table.

"I'm gonna start now!"

After Saburo Tohei said this, he couldn't wait to eat. I guess I was chatting with the noble lady and paying attention to the etiquette when eating, so I didn't eat more food, so I devoured it now.

Bai Gui also ate together.

Half a quarter of an hour later, he suddenly heard the whistle of shamisen and shakuhachi kotos below the hotel. He walked out. When he saw the geisha in the living room, she was not the one he met at the Ami Tea House last time. , and returned.

It's just curiosity.

The young female geisha last time left a deep impression on him.

…

With the literary reviews published in newspapers by popular writers and writers such as Mori Ogai, Futeye Tei Shishu, and Tanabe Ryuko, the sales volume of this issue of the Minjin Newspaper increased sharply, and another one was quickly printed. Thousand copies.

But the good times didn't last long. After a day or two of sales surge, they returned to a state of half-death. After all, although the works of literary giants can attract thousands of people, only some people will buy the works they recommend. Most people just remember the title of the work and have no desire to buy it...

But Bai Gui finally gained a certain reputation in the industry.

To the point of becoming famous.

At the same time, the newspaper published the second issue of "Da Qin Empire". What is gratifying is that although the sales volume of the newspaper this time is not large, there are many people who subscribed back, which means that the work is good and the readers are very sticky, but it lacks a certain degree of fame, and this requires a certain amount of time to ferment. There is no rush.

A few days later.

The appointed time for Bai Gui to post his tactical post has finally arrived.

At this moment, most students from the first, second and third divisions of the first high school walked out of the classroom. There was a crowded crowd of three to four hundred people, staring at the young man in front of the Yagyu Kendo club.

Guardrails were also built around the Kendo Club.

Bai Gui holds a bamboo sword, about three feet and eight inches. He holds it, and it is lighter than an iron sword. But in the first high competition, they are all from the same school. It is not yet a death blow. The opponents are also students, so There is no need to use serious weapons.

He bought this bamboo sword at a grocery store in Tokyo.
