Chapter 247 246. Samurai and Knights

Yamauchi Norizen's words did not cause any fluctuation in Ashina Isshin, but Mikokuro's eyes widened.

General Shi looked at the demon hunter who did not waver at all, and continued.

"Sir Genichiro, as well as the adults in Ashina City, who among you doesn't know that there is a problem with Senhou Temple? Who doesn't know that they are colluding with the inner government?"

"But can this be said openly? People from the Ming Dynasty, you seem to be someone who understands politics. Do you think this can be said openly?"

"If we don't tear our faces, Senhoji will still stand by Ashina and provide money, effort and supplies. But what if we tear our faces?"

Yamauchi Norizen was so angry that he banged his fist on the wooden floor twice.

This is not only irritating Lan En's "ignorance of the general situation", but also the sadness of the current predicament as a warrior.

"Ashina is being besieged by the entire Japan! Every friend is precious. Yes, when those monks were cooperating with us, they were still doing business for the imperial government. But if we take action, we will not even gain from this cooperation.

there is none left!"

"A moment of anger? A chivalrous spirit? What's the use of such a thing in Ashina?!"

Norizen Yamauchi yelled at Lan En, angrily scolding this foreigner who only cared about his own comfort and didn't care about Ashina's life or death.

Yes, he is a foreigner. How could he care about Ashina's survival?

General Shi looked at the demon hunter sitting by the wall with a look like he was looking at an enemy.

In his eyes, Lan En, who wanted to do such a thing out of a moment of chivalry, would undoubtedly be an enemy who would shake the power of the Weiming Kingdom.

Lan En noticed the look in this man's eyes, but he didn't seem to feel anything. He just turned to look at the old man lying lazily on the main seat.

"An uncontrollable and half-hearted collaborator will only cause trouble. I insist on my idea, please let Isshin-sama decide."

Norizen Yamauchi also looked over with a sullen face.

But the skinny old man who was at the center of his sight seemed not to be aware of the tit-for-tat confrontation between the two of them, and just looked at the demon hunter sitting by the wall with interest.

"I said, Lan"

The old man even changed his hands to support his head to make himself lie more comfortable.

"Just because of two guys who we can call 'friends', you are going to kill the monks at Xianfeng Temple? I don't know what the conditions are like in the temples where you have been. But in Japan, they are not simple monks.

oh."

Lan En's expression did not change.

I have said before that when he gets tired of studying history in his home world, he will look for some foreign history to adjust his mood.

During the Warring States Period in Japan, figures such as Oda Nobunaga had to struggle with their strength and make false claims in the east and west before they dared to take action against Mount Hiei's Enryaku Temple. Even before taking action, there were many opponents among his retainers.

It is enough to see that in the Middle Ages of Japan, temples were not just religious places, they were enough to be called military and political units.

The reputation of Mount Kumgang Seonbong Temple is also top-notch in Japan.

Lan En raised his eyes and looked into the interested one eye.

"Before they left, the two of them repeatedly said that they would pray for me in front of the Buddha statue in Xianfeng Temple. I told them that I did not believe in Buddhism, but they kept saying it, and it was endless and annoying.

.”

The 'interest' on Ashina Isshin's face slowly disappeared, replaced by 'seriousness'.

Determination, good or bad.

As long as people show this kind of unshakable determination, they will naturally gain respect.

"I am one of the reasons why they went to Xianfeng Temple. I don't believe in Buddhism, but I appreciate it. Most of them have died at the hands of those monks, so I will go to them to collect their debts."

"Even if they actually just mentioned it in the main hall of Xianfeng Temple?"

"Lord Isshin." Lan En chuckled. "It's just a small thing for a person like you to say something in the main hall of Xianfeng Temple. But for the person who just became a lower-level warrior, it was his mother's fault.

Give him the opportunity he asked for in his lifetime."

"So, yes. Even before he died, he just said to the Buddha statue in the main hall of Xianfeng Temple, 'There is a Mingguo man named Lan En, please bless him.' I also appreciate it."

Ashina looked intently at the young man in front of him, and the corners of his mouth grew wider without even noticing it.

"Hehehehahaha!"

It was a low laugh at first, but then it became louder and louder.

"It's really rare, it's really rare! In today's world, you can still see such a person! Butterfly! Can you think of it, ah? Can you think of it? Haha!"

Ashina asked with a smile as he looked at his old friend below.

Madam Butterfly tapped the cigarette pot expressionlessly, "Well, I really saw a ghost today."

Because I feel that I have some inexplicable obligations and responsibilities that others can't understand at all, and then I just go ahead and do it without caring about anything. This kid is not the same as you who launched the war of stealing the country thirty years ago.

Of?!

Should I say this is 'karma'? Now that you are old, there is such a young man coming to Ashina.

"It makes your hands itch." The skinny old man grinned, his sharp smile just like an evil ghost!

At this time, he no longer felt half-lying lazily. Instead, when he unconsciously rubbed the handle of the knife next to him, everyone felt a sense of fear.

"You are really itchy, Lan En."

"It's been a pleasant experience fighting against you, but please forgive me. I refuse to waste energy on you until this matter is dealt with."

The witcher said calmly, and the old man smiled indifferently.

"I know, that's why it's a pity."

"I also know that you brought this ninja to report to me because you wanted to mobilize a force to destroy Xianfeng Temple. But it is also a pity that I am not the king of Ashina now, and the general will not listen to me.

orders."

"You are serious, Isshin-sama!" Norizen Yamauchi immediately turned to Isshin and knelt down. "Even if you want your subordinate to commit suicide now, I will not hesitate, but this matter not only concerns the subordinate himself, but will also harm Ashina's strength.

, I apologize for not being able to agree with you!"

"Now, you saw it too, Lan En. You made a wrong move. I wanted to come to the Hirata clan to recruit people, but now Yamauchi probably won't let you leave the Hirata clan."

The old man spread his hands and Lan En nodded.

"This is to be expected. I just took action after weighing the difficulties and benefits. Now the 'difficulties' are just out of control."

"Yes, the 'difficulties' are out of control."

Ashina touched the goatee on his chin and announced with a smile.

"Then, Norizen Yamauchi and Lan En, let's have a fight to the death."

After the words fell to the ground, both people seemed calm and calm.

Instead, Miko Kuro, who had been listening, exclaimed in surprise.

"Eh?! How is that possible? Isshin-sama! Shouldn't we discuss it with each other again? A fight to the death would be inevitable."

"Otherwise, Miko?" The old man, who also looked calm, interrupted the child's words without mercy.

At this time, Butterfly grabbed the child who was still about to say something and shook his head at him.

"The samurai of Ashina must carry out their loyalty and never allow things that endanger the national power to happen before their eyes. The knights of foreign countries must fulfill the kindness of their friends and never allow their friends to become headless blood debts after their death."

"Both sides are holding swords, and neither side can possibly compromise, so what else can be done?"

"You can only speak with your sword, warrior. There is honor in death but no disgrace in life!"
