God always brings luck to some people at certain times, just like this man named Big Bear kneeling in front of Takano Shimazu. When those ghosts and gods attack Satsuma City, Big Bear happens to be absent from outside to meet his little lover. And when the whole shouting of killing was spread to his ears, he was timid and didn't dare to look at any direction.

It was not until his little lover gave him a loud slap in the face and scolded Big Bear as a coward with tears in his bird's nest that Big Bear was brave and brave enough to climb onto a tree in the forest halfway up the mountain and watch for a while.

After waiting for a long time, Big Bear ran back to the cave where he and the little lover were hiding. After returning, Big Bear gasped and said while gasping for his little lover.

"There are too many enemies outside. The opponent rides hellhounds, like a yaksha, and there are thousands of them. I defeated hundreds of them and finally lost. The number of enemies is too large, so I have to escape back..."

Big Bear said it was like a real thing, and his little lover looked at him with watery eyes, looking at him with admiration and surprise. Big Bear fled to the place where his aunt lived in a familiar forest path, which was outside Sanchi Castle bordering Satsumo County and Izo County.

Along the way, I have suffered all the hardships and lack of food and clothing. The only thing that can make Big Bear happy is that no one will disturb him and his little lover. My wife will come to the mountain to find me to find food for them. There is no need to worry that the little lover's husband will come to cause trouble for him. After all, the lover's husband is his own team leader. Big Bear cannot beat or suppress others. Moreover, Big Bear feels particularly powerful every time he conquers this woman, maybe it is mainly to vent the pressure he has suffered from the team leader.

However, even spiritual food and mixed exercises cannot be eaten as food, especially the consumption brought by the latter is even greater. Fortunately, Big Bear and the others encountered a patrol team sent from Sanchi City.

There were very few regular troops around Satsuma Prefecture. No one had ever seen the enemy or the flags held by the other party. However, Big Bear drew the family flag he saw and bragged to others. Unexpectedly, he was caught by the deacon, and soon he was placed in front of Takao Shimazu.

Under the strict class hierarchy of Japan, people like Big Bear are not considered samurai at all. They are just ordinary civilians who were summoned to become the most ordinary soldier when Daming needed them.

Japan can now be divided into six classes, and there is one exception. The lowest level can be said to be the untouchables. This class is generally exiled, mostly descended from losers after political struggles, or some vicious prisoners, as well as private prostitutes and other people who engage in indescribable dirty things.

The common people are above the untouchables. Civilians are required to be prohibited from leaving the village where they live. The Japanese produces a lot of rice, but the rice quality is very superior and is more delicious than the Champa rice. The rice in the Northeast region of China later generations was actually brought by migrants when the Japanese occupied the local area. However, civilians have planted rice for their lifetime, but they have never eaten a bite of it. Many people are there. Some people say this is a bit nonsense. Could it be that they would not secretly hide it? Of course, they can hide it privately. If they are discovered, even the identity of the civilian may be discarded. After being sentenced, they will be demoted to a untouchable.

The common people still have hope of a space to rise, that is, to become the fourth class, the word "samurai" and "samurai" actually began to rise gradually during the Kamakura Shogunate era. There was only Japan ruled by Daming and the Emperor. In the Shogunate era, the general of the Great Conquest of the Yi, and the combination of Taoism, Confucianism, Buddhism and other theories. It was a unique class of spiritual beliefs, which was based on righteousness, courage, benevolence, courtesy, sincerity, reputation, loyalty, and self-restraint.

Although samurai refers to the awareness of not spared life, in order to realize the value of individuals and groups, and to exert their abilities as much as possible, emphasizing "death without any conscience, death without hesitation, death without hesitation". This statement that makes people feel terrifying is also flocked by the entire lower class. The idea of ​​trying to join the samurai class is because samurai is the lowest ruling class. They enjoy the right to oppress civilians.

A samurai has the right to hold a sword, and they also have a surname. Before the Meiji Restoration, the entire Japanese civilian class had no surnames, and only the samurai and the aristocratic class above had these rights.

In front of civilians, if the samurai is slightly unsatisfied, he can kill the civilians. Finally, he will explain the reason in front of the arrest road. No samurai will be punished. If there is a public warrior who goes to the civilians' homes to board, even if the civilians sleep outside, they will leave the room empty for the samurai to choose, and offer the women in their homes to serve the samurai. Even if there is a samurai who is slightly unsatisfied, he can still kill the owner's house.

Even wild samurai can do this. Wild samurai is actually his apostle master who has lost his master. The samurai who has lost his master is like a samurai. However, as long as the samurai who has a name and a sword are all people who have the right to live and kill. Those who want to become samurai but have not been recognized by the apostle master to ascend the throne. In the end, they become homeless people and naturally become ronin. Of course, the ronin class is actually a gray area between civilians and samurai. They have the status of civilians, but they are selfish with swords, but they do not have a propostle. In the eyes of samurai, they are just ordinary civilians.

It is very difficult for civilians to become samurai. Among the civilians, there are also differences such as merchants, artists, village scholars, and tenants. First of all, merchants and artists can still go around in various areas. Village scholars will have some of their own land. If these people want to become samurai, they must first be highly recognized by a fan. However, the current Japanese merchants do not have so much wealth recognized by the anime masters, or they rely too much on merchants in finance. Therefore, merchants want to become samurai very southern. Only in the Edo Shogunate period, hundreds of years later, did a large number of merchants buy a samurai identity through donation, and they are just lower-level samurai.

The levels between samurai are also very obvious. It is very difficult for lower-level samurai to upgrade to each level. In the end, if you want to become a high-level samurai noble and become a real ruling class in the city, you must at least have the aristocrats to cede part of the land or city to give it to them before you can call them the martial family.

The first thing to be a low-level samurai is to be a soldier. Becoming a light-footed person depends on your military achievements and your ability to march and fight. If you have outstanding military achievements or are quickly promoted to the position of the banner master and your general, you can easily become a warrior. Therefore, being a soldier is the easiest way to change your status for civilians.

The second is to join the name of the head of the Wu family and become an adopted son. In this way, you will get the surname of the Wu family. After learning military tactics, kendo, physical skills, tactics, etc., you can become a real warrior. But in fact, this kind of recognition of your father is very ethereal. Even if you adopt a son within the scope of high-level samurai, you will only choose from the noble family and become a political means. The lower-level samurai will adopt sons from the common people, but it is difficult for these quasi-samurai trained by these lower-level samurai warriors to be recognized by the leader of the flag-born samurai and obtain legal samurai status.

In addition, when they become bandits up the mountain, encounter war, or when the head of the family Daming needs to recruit such bandits, these people can successfully join the samurai class.

Therefore, in front of any civilian who has the desire to change his life, there are too few opportunities to see a head of the family or a young master like Shimazu Takao and even speak alone.

Shimazu Takao still put a piece of paper in front of Big Bear kneeling on the ground and asked directly,

"Are you sure the back flag you see looks like this ring-shaped three-leaf?"

Big Bear looked down and saw that the paper on the ground was the picture he drew on the ground when he was bragging to the captain of the patrol team, but this painting was indeed the pattern he saw.

"Yes...yes...yes...yes...yes...yes...they ride, ride, huge dogs... can jump over the city walls in one leap."

"That's a horse! War horse!"

"Are you sure it's the pattern?"

"Yes, yes, young master, this is the picture!"

Shimazu Takao narrowed his eyes and was silent for a while before speaking,

"You did a good job and reward you with a lower-level warrior. I hope you can be loyal to your family in the future! Go down..."

Big Bear was completely stunned. He didn't expect that he just took a look at the enemies in the city and recorded the patterns of that family, and could actually get the identity of a samurai! Oh no, now he shouldn't be called Big Bear, but Shimazu Big Bear.

After Big Bear bowed out of the room step by step, Takao Shimazu could not help but arrive in his father's room where he was recuperating. Shimazu Kutaki's complexion has been pretty good in recent days.
