Unparalleled Double Harmony

Chapter 374 Sleepover
After the Chuanpengzhuang incident, Shuangxie and Keijiro traveled northeastward for a few more days before they left the boundary of Shimonoseki and approached the Mine area.

Some people may say, it’s just a little way, how about walking for a few days?According to their moving speed in Osaki before, it would probably only take more than half a month from Nagasaki to Aomori, right?

Then you can take it for granted.

The Dazhao of this universe is a dynasty that has lasted for more than [-] years and was very stable for most of the time, and Japan in the second year of the Yuan Dynasty is still in the long "Warring States Era", so can it be the same? ?

In Daxie, basically all the state capitals located in the plains are connected by official roads, and there are posthouses on the way, coupled with abundant horse resources, and the existence of "high-speed rail gangs"... Theoretically, the speed of travel It can be very fast.

It's just that there were many accidents in those years, and the weather and public security had a great impact on the itinerary, so the lower limit of this "travel speed" was as exaggerated as the upper limit.

But when it comes to Japan, the upper limit is just like that.

It can be said that there are no roads here, no horses, no horses, nearly [-]% of the country is mountainous, and the issue of public security is not to mention... It is not normal to go fast.

What's more, everyone, don't forget that when Sun Yixie left Chuanpengzhuang, he was still suffering from wind pain...

To say that Keijiro's buddies are also really righteous. On the first day after leaving the village, because Huang Donglai was still recovering from diarrhea, his steps were floating, so Keijiro basically carried Sun Yixie on the road this day. The next day, Brother Sun felt a little embarrassed himself, so he went to get a piece of wood and whittled it into a simple crutch all night, and walked on it for a whole day by himself.

By the third day, Sun Yixie's gout had almost passed away, and only then did he return to his normal speed of action.

After that, the three of them were hungry for food and thirsty to drink, so they stayed overnight. On the fifth day of the trip, they finally saw a village in the mountains south of Mine.

This village is not big, but there are dozens of households. There are no hotels in the village, let alone shops. They are all residential houses. Most of the villagers are old people and children. All reveal a kind of "turbidity".

There are two points of greed, three points of fear, and five points of hostility in their eyes. It seems that as long as you show any flaws, people will feel that you have an opportunity, and you may be wiped by them at night at any time.

Of course, this is also very normal - people who have experienced years of wars, especially those living in villages in various places, are generally in such a state.

It would be better if they lived in the castle town where the daimyo is located, or in a more prosperous town or port, because those areas are relatively safe and the economy is more prosperous... But the people living in such remote villages, because of being surrounded by those The passing bandits and soldiers have looted too many times, and they no longer trust anyone, nor the "goodness" of human nature.

Ordinary travelers pass by here, what they have to face is an adventure and a game.

If you look vicious, strong, and powerful... Most of the villagers will not dare to mess with you, and you can even leave after a night without leaving a penny or saying thank you.

But if you act kind and weak, you may become an additional missing person in this cannibalistic world.

Fortunately, the appearance of Shuangxie and Keijiro is not easy to mess with, so after they came to this village, no one came to them. Soon they found a family and negotiated the price with the owner. , lived in.

In the evening of that day, they had some rough tea and light food, and then rested in the house.

By the way, here in Japan, most of the time, Shuangxiong does not need to guard against situations such as "being poisoned" or "Chinese and Mongolian sweat medicine".

Even if Huang Donglai, a poison expert, is not here today, they don't need to pay too much attention to this matter, because Japanese civilians in this era have no way to get decent poisons and drugs.

They do have things that can eat dead people, but dogs might not eat that kind of thing if it is mixed into food. "Poison or drugs that can be put into food without being immediately noticed by ordinary people" were only those big names at the time. A rare thing that may be obtained... If these villagers have this kind of thing on hand, instead of using it to kill for money, it is better to exchange it for money and food, and it may make more profits.

Closer to home...

It was night, Keijiro snored very early, and Sun Yixie was half asleep. Only Huang Donglai, half leaning against the wall, was meditating and adjusting his breath while being vigilant.

Obviously, Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai had made an agreement to take turns to watch the night; with the characters of these two "old Jianghu from the Central Plains", it is not surprising that they would do this at night after seeing the state of the villagers during the day.

In this way, before you know it, it's time.

Just when Huang Donglai was thinking that it was time to call Sun Yixie to "change shift", suddenly, in the silence of the night, there were a few birdsongs...or in other words, a few parody imitations of birdsongs made by humans.

Huang Donglai understood what this meant, so he immediately opened his eyes, walked to the wall in the dark, and looked out of the house along the gap between the wooden boards.

Not long after, he saw six or seven figures gathered outside by the moonlight.

These people gathered in one place in the dark through the sound of birds chirping, and then sneaked towards the house next door.

Huang Donglai's eye skills are not bad, he can tell just by the outline of the shadows, each of these people is holding a hatchet and short sticks and other weapons in their hands, he said to himself: If this wave didn't kill pigs in the middle of the night, That is to lay a black hand on someone.

But he didn't know what happened to the family next door, whether he should take care of this nosy matter, or whether there was any nosy matter here, or whether it counted as nosy matter... It was hard to say.

Huang Donglai thought about it for a while, and decided to go with him first to find out the facts before making a fuss.

So, he immediately turned around, exerted a burst of feminine palm strength, and slapped Sun Yixie awake with a series of silent slaps.

As for Brother Sun, because he was "well-trained", he returned a set of grappling skills along Brother Huang's arm while he was half asleep and half awake.

The two fought for a few moves, and after Sun Yixie was completely awake, they separated tacitly and slapped each other a few times that only the two of them could understand... in the form of pointing the middle finger, winking, blind gestures, etc. composed gestures.

After gesturing, Huang Donglai went out of the room, while Sun Yixie stayed in the room and continued to be on guard.

Everyone knows Huang Ge's lightness kung fu. If he wants to sneak, ordinary characters in the world will not be able to find him, let alone ordinary people who don't know martial arts. So it only took him less than a minute to touch him silently. To the back of the six or seven villagers.

As for those villagers, because they were afraid of being discovered, they didn't light candles or torches at all, and they reached the door of the next door by relying on moonlight.

Here the book implies that the family next door also has tourists staying in the house, and the owner of the house is among the six or seven people at this moment.

However, the two residents next door came earlier than Shuangxie and Keijiro, and they didn't come out during the day, so Huang Donglai didn't know about it.

Right now, this group of villagers is planning to kill the two travelers staying at the next door's house in the middle of the night, in order to kill themselves for money.

But what they didn't expect was that Huang Donglai, who was secretly following them here, hadn't figured out the situation, and didn't think about whether to make a move, so their plan encountered an even bigger accident...

Hulululu-poof!

Just as the villager standing at the front gently opened the Japanese-style sliding door, there was a muffled sound in the darkness.

If you want to describe this movement, it's like someone knocked a hole in a watermelon with a hammer.

Two seconds later, before the villagers behind could understand what had happened, the person who opened the door first fell straight backwards.

When he fell to the ground on his back, everyone looked down again, and they suddenly found that there was a fist-sized blood hole on the forehead of the fallen man, which penetrated into the brain.

This kind of injury... the villagers have never seen it before, but Huang Donglai has an impression.

The back of Takeda Kuranosuke's head was shattered by an impact very similar to this one in the previous Kawatanaso murder case.

Now Huang Donglai was no longer sleepy, he immediately cheered up, opened his eyes and ears, and paid close attention to the movements in the house.

Clap—poof!

Sure enough, two seconds later, before the villagers outside the house recovered from the shock, the people inside the house shot again.

At that moment, a swift black shadow pierced through the wooden wall, and hit another villager in the head like a poisonous snake, killing him with another blow.

This time, Huang Dong saw clearly that the weapon used by the people inside the house was an iron mound tied to a chain, and his method of killing people was to grab the chain, throw the iron mound, and smash the head of the enemy far away. , and then use the chain to take back the iron mound.

Similar weapons are also available in the Central Plains martial arts, but not many people use them. The reason we have mentioned above-the more unpopular and exotic weapons, the higher the threshold for getting started; most people who use such strange weapons, Before practicing such things, at least two or more common weapons have been practiced, and they have reached a good level.

In other words, the upper limit of a person using this type of weapon may not be very high, but the lower limit is definitely not low. If it is placed in the Central Plains martial arts, this is at least a second-rate master.

Seeing this, Huang Donglai didn't dare to take it too seriously. After a breath, he almost instinctively moved a few steps towards the opposite direction of the room.

During this period, following the death of the second person, the remaining villagers finally screamed out in horror and fled in all directions.

In a blink of an eye, there were only two corpses left outside the house, and Huang Donglai, who stood in the shadows and made no sound from the beginning to the end.

Snapped--

After a short period of calm, another piece of wood on the house wall was broken.

And the iron mound flying out of the house this time was undoubtedly aimed at Huang Donglai.

Huang Donglai was not surprised by this, he just took half a step, easily dodged the blow, and then... before the iron mound was retracted, he quickly reached out and grabbed the chain connected to the iron mound.

The people in the house didn't know that there was another expert outside besides the villagers. When he threw the third blow, he thought he was going to attack a "guy who was so scared that he couldn't even escape".

Therefore, when he was about to take back the iron mound, but found a stagnant force coming from his hand, he was also surprised.

But this surprise quickly turned into a faint excitement.

"Hehe... I didn't expect that in this kind of place, someone could catch me..." The brother sneered in the room and said to himself, thinking to say something like "Interesting, then I'll be more serious." Play with you" lines.

Unexpectedly, in the next second, he felt an indescribable force coming from the chain in his hand, pulling himself forward.

"Huh! Ninny?" So, his lines that were supposed to raise the trendy value were suddenly interrupted, and he changed into an appearance full of miscellaneous feelings.

bang——

Since part of the chain is wrapped around the body, and there is a short sickle on the other end of the chain, it is difficult to let go of this weapon and it is not easy to untie it for a while, so the user of this strange weapon was just born by Huang Donglai. Pulling it out abruptly, it smashed through the not-so-thick wooden wall of the house and flew out.

When the other party came outside the house, Huang Donglai saw it clearly: the user of the "lock sickle (a weapon composed of a short sickle, iron mound and chain)" was a man with a thin body and an old face.

Of course, "old man" only refers to appearance, in fact, he is only in his fifties, which is called a mature man today, but because the nutrition and medical conditions in ancient times were not as good as they are now, and the situation in Japan at that time was relatively large It's even worse now, so many people here look like our contemporary 50-70-year-olds before they reach the age of [-].

"You guy... who are you?" Suo Lian quickly saw Huang Donglai's face clearly and asked.

"I still wanted to ask you, but you called me all of a sudden, killing me, right?" Huang Donglai responded unceremoniously.

"Nonsense, who came to whom first?" It seemed that Suo Liannan hadn't turned his mind up to this moment—Huang Donglai and the gang of villagers who wanted to get rich and kill themselves were not in the same group.

Fortunately, there is another sensible person in this room.

"Wait a minute!" The man said in time, preventing the further escalation of the situation outside the house, and he himself walked out quickly.
