I formed the strongest swordsman group.

Chapter 572 Identity exposed!Stop pretending!I am the envoy of the town! 【4300】

The Shinsengumi of more than 100 people plus the Aizu Army of 200 people - about [-] people surrounded the Kyoto Administrative Office.

Such a rare and thought-provoking scene naturally attracted a large number of onlookers.

They were intimidated by the fierce aura of the sergeants and did not dare to approach. They all stood far away and stretched their necks to watch.

Needless to say, the expression shown by Matsudaira Yongho in this moment can be summed up in one word - the best interpretation of words such as "serious" and "dignified".

As for Inaba Masakuni, who was walking side by side with him...the frowned eyebrows, the stiff facial lines, and the indignant expression seemed to know for the first time that there was evil in the world.

"N-Nagato-sama...?"

Nengshi Liangbi asked softly and tentatively.

Inaba Masakuni walked up to him without saying a word.

then……

Snapped!
Inaba Masakuni threw out a right slap, hitting Nengshi Liangbi's left cheek impartially.

Inaba Masakuni has a skinny figure. At first glance, he looks like a weak man, but his hands are really strong.

The fat Nengshi Liangbi was beaten so hard that he almost fell to the ground.

As the saying goes, the first-level official crushes people to death.

The positions of the governor of Gyeonggi and the guardian of Kyoto are above those of the governor of Kyoto.

The status of Kyoto's sidai is higher than that of Kyoto's town.

Therefore, even if his face was burning and he felt aggrieved, he did not dare to protest or speak out.

After he stabilized his body that was blown away, he immediately stood back to his original position with his head buried in despair.

"You bastard! Look what you've done!"

Inaba Masakuni cursed loudly.

"What on earth did you do to Mr. Tachibana?"

I do not know either!I didn’t know that Tachibana-sama had been taken away until just now - Nose Ryōbi tightened his lips and resisted the urge to say these words.

At this time, Matsudaira Yongho interjected in a calm tone:

"Nagato-sama, please calm down. Hitting people will not solve the problem."

At the same time, Hijikata Toisho stared straight at Noshi Ryobi, pressing forward step by step and asking:
"During a private visit incognito, Mr. Tachibana killed an ambitious man who was blackmailing the common people, but was indiscriminately captured by the officers of the Kyoto Prosecution Office - do you know about this?"

A man with lofty ideals who conducts private visits incognito and blackmails ordinary people... Listening to these words, the cold sweat on the powerful man's head became more and more intense.

"I, I don't know the specific incident... The people from 'Three Chapters' should know the detailed details. Why don't I call them over?"

Matsudaira Yongho shook his head:

"No need! You should give Lord Tachibana his freedom now! We will discuss the rest in detail later!"

"Yes, yes! This is natural! This is natural!"

Inaba Masakuni: "Where did you keep Mr. Tachibana?"

"Since Mr. Tachibana was captured, he should be in Baizhou now..."

"lead the way!"

"Yes, yes! Please come with me! Please come with me!"

Noshi Ryobi bowed his waist, turned sideways respectfully, and made a "please" gesture towards Hijikata Toshizo, Matsudaira Yōho, Inaba Masakuni and others.

Everyone took big strides, and the soldiers of the two armies filed in...

……

……

Kyoto Administrative Office, Hakushu—

Four matchlock guns were aimed directly at Qingdeng's torso.

At such a distance, no matter how bad the shooter is, there is no reason to miss.

Takahashi Kinzaburo has already issued a strict order: If Qingto makes any rash move, do not hesitate and shoot directly!
On the one hand, the Musketeers closely monitored Qingdeng.

On the other hand, the thick rope used by the ropers to perform Ebina punishment.

Ebina punishment is to tie the prisoner's wrists tightly behind his back, cross his feet and tie them in front of him. The rope that binds the feet is put around his neck, so that the prisoner's feet are pulled toward his chin. After a while, the prisoner's whole body will burst into red. The pain was so painful that I broke into a cold sweat.What's more, soon after, the skin all over the body will turn into a terrifying dark purple, and then an even more terrifying pale color.

It won't kill people, but it will cause them extreme pain... It's simply the most perfect torture.

Takahashi Kinzaburo smiled ferociously, and with a condescending manner, he cast a look full of teasing and sarcasm at Aoto.

"How about it? You don't have to hold back! If you're scared, you might as well beg me for mercy! If you make me happy, I can consider letting you go!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Qingdeng replied without thinking:

"You're welcome. If you have any tricks, just use them. I'll wait and see."

After saying that, Qingden smiled slightly and looked into each other's eyes without any flinch.

In an instant, Takahashi Kinzaburo seemed to have a fish bone stuck in his throat, showing a depressed and ugly expression.

As a Ginmi Fang Yuli, Takahashi Kinzaburo has seen all kinds of people in his whole life.

There are cowards who will pee their pants after just a few threats.

There are also tough guys who are unyielding and look forward to death.

However, according to Takahashi Kinzaburo's observations and findings, no matter how hard-boned and tough-tempered a person is, when he sees the ferocious torture device gradually approaching him, there will always be more or less wavering and flinching in his eyes.

However... Qingdeng's eyes remained as calm as before.

While calm, there seemed to be a hint of mockery...

Such an expression does not seem to be pretending to be calm, nor does it look like Shichibuduo, but a kind of... indescribable calmness.

Looking at Qingto with such an expression on his face, Takahashi Kinzaburo felt inexplicably angry.

He gritted his teeth, slapped his thigh, and shouted:

"Damn! Torture! I want to see if you can still be so arrogant after tying your feet to your neck! Torture! Torture me now!"

The kind-hearted Natori looked at Takahashi Kinzaburo who gave the order, then looked at Ayoto, and sighed again.

"Little brother... bite the bullet. Don't blame us..."

Just when Natori picked up the thick hemp rope and slowly walked towards Aomori...

"Which bastard killed my little brother?!"

Several warriors with solemn faces and swords on their waists strode into Baizhou.

I saw that the leader was wearing a high-end kimono made of Sendai plain fabric. He had a lean body, his sight was as sharp as an arrow, and his eyes were as fierce as a tiger... With such an appearance, just looking at it made people instinctively feel: This person is not easy to mess with. .

"Huh? Master Yamazaki? Why are you here?"

At the moment when this group of people suddenly appeared...Takahashi Kinzaburo vividly demonstrated a "face change" that even a Sichuan opera actor would be ashamed of.

During the trial of Seto, Takahashi Kinsaburo looked fierce and angry throughout.

When people who don't know see him, they think he is some ruthless and tough person.

As a result, after seeing these uninvited guests, his facial lines softened immediately, the corners of his mouth were raised high, his eyes narrowed into thin slits, and his face was filled with a flattering smile.

He stood up hurriedly, bending his waist and hunching his shoulders, his posture extremely humble.In addition to his expressions and movements, his way of speaking also changed significantly.

That honorific...just listening to it makes me feel numb and gives me goosebumps.

Such a significant, as if suspended from the sky and the earth, changes before and after, it can be called a superb magic performance.

Yamazaki Heijiro...that is, the lean samurai who walked in the front and was called "Yamazaki-sama" by Takahashi Kinsaburo. He stood next to Takahashi Kinsaburo and said slowly in a neither salty nor bland tone:

"Hmph! Lord Takahashi, don't you have any idea why I'm here?"

"I was comfortably drinking tea and hugging a woman at home, and suddenly I heard that my important younger brother was killed by an unknown ronin. If I remained indifferent to this, where would the Kusunoki group's face be? How would we fool around in the future? …Ah, no, that’s not right, how can we realize the great cause of respecting the king and repelling the barbarians in the future?”

After saying that, Yamazaki Heijiro turned his head and looked at Aoto.

"Are you the one who caused me to lose a group of capable men?"

There was undisguised anger and murderous intent in Yamazaki Heijiro's eyes.

"Master Takahashi, please tell me, how should this matter be handled?"

"Uh... He killed people in the street, and he killed five people in a row. He is an unforgivable crime! He should be sentenced quickly and severely! However, this guy refuses to repent and refuses to sign the confession! Mr. Yamazaki, I am about to prepare Use torture on him and let him taste the power of Ebiosis! After he is sentenced to death, I want to see if he can still continue to be arrogant!"

"Ebisen? Master Yamazaki, just one Eboshi is not enough!"

Yamazaki Heijiro shook his head gently.

"A loyal man who worked for the country was brutally killed. If he is not severely punished, I am afraid the people will not be able to get angry!"

Takahashi Kinzaburo looked hesitant.

Later, the dignified Yinwei Fang Yuli asked the mere Yakuza:

"Then... Mr. Yamazaki, in your opinion, how should we deal with this thief?"

Yamazaki Heijiro raised the corners of his mouth and revealed a ferocious smile.

"Let him try all the torture instruments here! Torture him until he has only one breath left, and then behead him in Sanjo Kawara!"

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly changed.

Leaving aside the kind-hearted person, the expressions of several other people like Shengtou, Shuyi, Yulizhu, Tongxin, etc. who were used to Raspberry's injustice could not help but change.

Even Takahashi Kinzaburo couldn't help but be startled at this time.However, in just a moment, he came back to his senses and his mind was immersed in the cold comparison of pros and cons.

Yamazaki Heijiro is an important cadre of the Kusunoki-gumi. How could he miss this great opportunity to curry favor with the Kusunoki-gumi?

As a result, Takahashi Kinzaburo echoed loudly without hesitation:

"I see... Mr. Yamazaki, your method is good! Such a despicable and evil villain cannot be allowed to die easily! That would be too easy for him, so I will do it immediately!"

Having said this, he shouted to the Nadori:
"Did you hear that? Bring all the instruments of torture!"

The ropers looked at each other and looked at each other.

After all, they could not resist the power of Takahashi Kinzaburo... They turned around and walked towards the torture racks placed on both sides of Baizhou.

Before leaving, the kind-hearted Naotori turned his head and cast a sympathetic look at Qingden, lowered his voice and said softly:
"Little brother, you are really unlucky..."

Click, click, click, click... one after another, the horrific instruments of torture were carried out.

Takahashi Kinzaburo and Yamazaki Heijiro stood side by side, both laughing triumphantly.

In a good mood, they mocked Qingdeng without restraint.

"Hey! Dongyi, this is a rare opportunity. Let me teach you a lesson. Please prick up your ears and listen carefully: no matter how sharp the sword is, it can't compete with a small official seal! We will kill you more than we kill one. Ants are still simple!”

As soon as Takahashi Kinzaburo finished speaking, Yamazaki Heijiro took over:
"Hmph! If you dare to kill my little brother, this is what you will end up with! Boy, if there is an afterlife, remember firmly: 'Pinch your tail' is the first priority in life!"

The rope guards held various torture instruments in their hands and slowly walked towards Qingdeng...

"..."

Qingdeng, who had been as motionless as a clay or wooden sculpture since just now, finally started to move.

He raised his gaze and glanced around, finally settling on Takahashi Kinzaburo and Yamazaki Heijiro.

"Your name is...Kinzaburo Takahashi, right? Although your mouth has been full of bullshit from the beginning, I have to partially agree with what I said just now."

"you are right."

Qingden said as he reached into his arms and took out a gorgeous wakizashi.

"Sometimes, a sword that can cut iron like clay is no match for the insignificant official seal."

After saying that, Qingdeng casually placed the wakashi in front of his knees.

Looking at this wakizashi, all of a sudden...it was really a flash!The Natororis who were approaching Qingden with torture tools in their hands opened their eyes wide and showed expressions of disbelief.

The next moment, they all threw away the instruments of torture in their hands, knelt down respectfully on the ground, and tightened their bodies, not even daring to breathe out. A few of them even trembled slightly.

Such sudden changes made Takahashi Kinzaburo and Yamazaki Heijiro, who were laughing crazily just a second ago, suddenly froze on the spot.

"What are you doing? Why are you kneeling?"

Takahashi Kinzaburo yelled out of control, then stretched his neck and looked at the wakizashi in front of Aoto's knees.

I saw that the sword was completely golden, with a warm color and delicate texture. The scabbard was engraved with a delicate clover.

In an instant, Takahashi Kinzaburo's eyes widened just like those of the Nadori men just now, and the blood on his face faded at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Aoi, Aoimon?!"

Qingden raised the corners of his mouth, crossed his hands and put them into Yuzhi's sleeves, with a playful expression.

"This is the precious sword given to me by Lord Dashu. Seeing it is like seeing sunflower patterns."

"Dada, Dashu Gong?!"

"What? Why are you still standing upright? Hasn't anyone taught you the etiquette you should do when you see Kui Wen before?"

Just when Qingdeng was about to finish his words, chaotic footsteps suddenly came from outside Baizhou.

Immediately afterwards, Hijikata Toshizo, Matsudaira Yoshiho, Inaba Masakuni, and the officers and men of the two armies led by them filed in.

With just a snap of his fingers, the spacious Baizhou was filled with murderous sergeants.

Qingdeng slowly stood up and said with a smile:

"Hijikata-kun, you are so fast. I thought you would come later."

Hijikata Toshizo shrugged and smiled:

"Our boss has been arrested. If we don't respond as quickly as possible, how can we still survive in Kyoto?"

Matsudaira Yoshiho and Inaba Masakuni came forward - the former signaled with his eyes, while the latter bowed politely.

"Master Tangerine!"

Inaba Masakuni said respectfully.

"I'm really sorry! I frightened you!"

PS: Edo, Kyoto and Osaka all have two administrative offices.The administrative offices in Edo and the administrative offices in Minami BJ are divided into things, and they all rotate on a monthly basis.

Because the Kyoto Shrine is not an important place, so in order to save trouble, Bao Baozi combined the eastern and western shrines in Kyoto into one. Hope you know~~
