A samurai who doesn't want to be a daimyo is not a good onmyoji

Chapter 234 Jingyi and Tiger
Tomita Shotokuji Temple was originally a place of great incense. However, due to the previous wars between the Saito family and the Oda family, the monks and monks in the temple had already moved to other places. However, after several days of renovation by hundreds of craftsmen, this place It has already taken on a new look, and it has become a temporary foothold for Asai Nagamasa.

Former Mino ministers such as Akechi Mitsuhide and Saito Toshioharu began to clean up and rebuild Inabayama Castle.

In the parallel world, Inabayama Castle occupied by Oda Nobunaga will be renamed Gifu Castle, because the birthplace of the Chinese Zhou Dynasty is Qishan, which means that the world will spread military power from the reborn Inabayama Castle.

However, in this world, there has never been a Zhou Dynasty. The first emperor of the Cathay Empire was the Dragon Emperor, and he is still the Dragon Emperor.

In the history of the past thousands of years, although there will be a few rebels every once in a while, they are just a temporary display of power. When the Dragon Emperor comes, he will be destroyed with a flip of his hand, and naturally there will be no Qishan. , so Asai Nagamasa didn’t have the intention to change its name.

At the same time, he also removed many paper shikigami originally used for patrolling and guarding, and instead handed this task to other subordinates.

New monsters will appear in the cracks every half an hour. Because the cracks are extremely narrow, they usually can only appear alone, and their strength is also strongly restricted, so they are usually extremely weak.

In this way, it is an excellent trial opportunity for samurai, ninjas, or ordinary soldiers.

They can't find such a safe opportunity to fight monsters alone elsewhere. After all, monsters don't practice bushido. Flesh and blood.

The only problem is probably that the corpses of the monsters need to be disposed of after they die.

From the time of defeating Yilong to the return to Inabayama Castle, within a few days, hundreds of monster corpses had been piled up outside the cracks.

But this problem is not big, just burn them, and after Muramasa becomes more skilled in his craftsmanship, maybe the corpses of these monsters will gradually become the raw materials for him to build weapons and armor.

In addition, he also had an idea that the shikigami used by the Onmyojis were essentially monsters, and his Minotaur Demon Bohuang was directly summoned from the underworld.

If the conditions are met, can the monsters emerging from these cracks be also driven by Onmyoji?
But Nagamasa Asai didn't have time to focus on this aspect for the time being, because he wanted to meet someone.

"Are you the daughter of the Ii family? Look up."

Calculating the time, almost as soon as he returned home, he sent a samurai to send his daughter over. This Ii Naomori was indeed a trustworthy person.

The young woman at the bottom trembled when she heard the words, and two parts of her body swayed uncontrollably. Even wearing a tolerant robe could not hide it, and then she responded softly: "Yes. .”

The eyes of Akane Suzuki and the little kunoichi sitting next to her were attracted invariably, and then they looked at their chests. Then they sighed secretly at the same time, their minds filled with despair and disbelief.

How is it possible? Isn't this too exaggerated?There's no way to compare!

No, to be more precise, from the very beginning, I was not qualified to compete with the opponent at all!

Especially Suzuki Akane, she was full of confidence when facing Ning Ning, and was only slightly discouraged when facing Hashihime, but when she saw the woman in front of her, she was completely desperate, because both sides They were not on the same level at all from the beginning!

When he looked up, he saw a shy and pretty face, with two blushes on his plump oval-shaped face. He looked extremely beautiful. Even Asai Nagamasa was a little surprised by the beauty of the other party.

I didn't realize it. Ii Naomori was just an ordinary heroic man, but he could actually give birth to such a stunning daughter.

And wasn't it said that she was sent to a nunnery when she was young? How did she grow into such an exaggerated figure that is usually only found in anime and super hot?
Moreover, the height of the other party is unscientific. According to visual inspection, it is a full 1.8 meters, which is not only higher than [-]% of the men in Nibon at the moment, but is even slightly taller than myself now.

Is the food in the nunnery so good?She shouldn't be drinking milk from a young age, unless all she drinks is tiger milk!
Of course, the reason why Asai Nagamasa had such wild thoughts was not only because of the surprise caused by the other party's figure and appearance, but also because of the roar in his body that disturbed some of his thoughts.

From the moment the other party appeared, the flame tiger in his body was restless, roaring, and seemed extremely excited.

"So, she will be your chosen possessor, many times more suitable than her father?"

Yanhu was speechless and just nodded wildly. Of course, it was not because it could not communicate with its thoughts, but because it was extremely excited. At this moment, it had forgotten how to communicate and only had the most basic instinctive reaction.

But Asai Nagamasa suddenly became a little suspicious: "Yanhu, you guys, are you just like that lustful Biyiniao, who simply took a fancy to the other person's beauty, right?"

He still remembers that when he was in Qingzhou City that day, because he was greedy for beauty and longed for the female biwing bird on Ah Shi's body, he almost made a fool of himself. Could it be that this extremely majestic looking flame? Tiger is actually a lecherous person, right?

This woman from the Jing Yi family not only had an extremely exaggerated and hot figure, she was also the most outstanding one he had seen in the entire Nibon. There was even no one who could rival her for the time being, whether it was Ning Ning, A Xiu, or other women. , cannot be compared with each other.

Her appearance is also stunning, and more importantly, she seems to be a little naturally stupid. Maybe it seems silly to others, but in a certain way, it is a unique feature. It is completely understandable that Yan Hu is attracted to her because of this.

And he still remembered that Flame Tiger had said at the beginning that the person it wanted to choose to possess must be a person with a flaming fighting spirit and faith, fearless of life and death, and courageous to move forward, and it was best to be a male.

But now it seems that even what the guardian spirit says cannot be believed. Except for the first one, which is somewhat consistent, he really didn't see the rest from the other person.
The flame tiger froze for a moment, and then roared again. At this time, it seemed to be a little calmer, and it remembered how to convey its thoughts.

"Ho, I'm a tigress!"

"Uh, well, it was my fault."

Asai Nagamasa suddenly felt a little embarrassed. He really hadn't paid attention to this issue before. It was indeed his mistake. Who made Yanhu's voice completely unrecognizable and just neutral?

Because of the other party's straightforward character, he always thought that the other party was a male tiger.

"However, the other party's talent may be enough, but her strength is not yet clear. Are you sure you want to choose her?"

Generally speaking, the guardian spirit and the possessed person achieve mutual success, and their own strength is already stronger than ordinary people's imagination. It doesn't matter even if Yan Hu is separated, but if this woman's strength is too weak, Yan Hu will also She will be seriously affected, and unless she dies, Yanhu may never have the chance to choose the possessed person again in his life.

"No regrets!"

"Very good, then I agree in theory, but don't be too impatient. You also know that the rash possession of a guardian spirit is dangerous for mortals, let alone a powerful guardian spirit like you."

The guardian spirit can bring various powers to the possessed person, but if the other person is too weak, he may not be able to withstand such power and suffer the consequences.

The previous Takenaka Hanbei is an example. He has been frail and sickly for the past ten years. It was not until he received the magic inheritance given by Asai Nagamasa that he finally gradually returned to normal and controlled the body's strength.

That's Bai Ze, who is known for his wisdom rather than strength. Because of its blazing flames and fighting spirit, the Flame Tiger will only have a greater impact on those who lack strength.

This time Yanhu agreed. It still trusted Asai Nagamasa very much. Even before today, it had thought more than once that if it never met a suitable possessor, it would just stay with Asai Nagamasa. Very good too.

Of course, now it has a brand new choice. Although the opponent's strength is nothing compared to Asai Nagamasa, it really suits its character!
After settling the matter with Yanhu, Asai Nagamasa couldn't help but smile. Although he promised Yanhu to find a new and suitable owner for it, he never thought of tying up with the enemy. One of the conditions for being invisible was that the opponent You must stand by your own side.

He originally thought that he would have the opportunity to take Yanhu to meet Maeda Keiji, but now this plan has come to nothing.

When he smiled, the face of the woman from the Ii family became more and more rosy, because when communicating with Yan Hu, the outside world had more or less passed, so the external manifestation was that he was staring straight at her.

Although she had already had a premonition of what would happen in the future after receiving the order from her father to serve the Asai family's daimyo. This was also one of her responsibilities as a daughter of the samurai family, but when this day really came , she still couldn't help but feel shy.

However, after actually arriving here, I realized that His Highness's appearance was really surprising. I'm afraid there is no one in the entire Nibon who can compare to His Highness, right?
Moreover, His Highness seems to be a few years younger than me and slightly shorter in height. If I can really serve His Highness, I will take advantage of him no matter what. Ouch, I am so shy.
She was blushing and heartbeating here, but the little kunoichi next to her was gnashing her teeth.

Really, it was too much to use such a foul figure to attract His Highness, even His Highness who seemed not to be interested in women was attracted.

Hmm, but how did she get so big?Do you want to ask her for advice if you have time?Ah, it's so difficult.
Akane Suzuki's heart became more and more desperate.

It's over. I have hinted and even stated it many times before, and His Highness seemed to have no reaction to me. But I didn't expect that this woman had just arrived, and His Highness's eyes stopped on her for several breaths. It was obviously me who came first, why? It looks like she's about to succeed instead?
But I can't give up on this. The Ii family is often suppressed and bullied by the Imagawa family. It is completely different from the independent Zaga family that occupies most of Kii country. The strength of the Ii family is far inferior to the Suzuki family. Show your sincerity.
While the two women were thinking wildly, Asai Nagamasa also had a preliminary communication with the woman in front of him.

She is the daughter of Ii Naomori. She has been a nun since she was a child. Her Buddhist name is Yuen Ni, also known as Master Jiro. She has no official name yet.

Following her father's order, she came to serve her. In addition to herself, she was accompanied by some maids and guard warriors. She also brought some gold and jewelry as a gift to thank him for his instructions in helping the Ii family to cross the river. Get through it.

After taking the initiative to offer a large amount of land and stating his sins, Imagawa Yoshimoto is no longer so hostile to the Ii family, because the Ii family's land is less than [-] koku, and they no longer have the qualifications to threaten the Ii family. It dropped a lot all of a sudden.

Ten thousand koku is the recognized dividing line between minor and daimyo among Nippon warriors. Whether or not this boundary is crossed is of great significance to many warriors.

After she said this with a blush, Asai Nagamasa also had a rough understanding of the situation of the Ii family and the Imagawa family, but he did not think that the crisis of the Ii family was completely over.

When the Matsudaira family and the Ii family were busy attacking the Oda family, Imagawa Yoshimoto did not move and stayed in Sunfu Castle all day. Until now, he has no intention of using troops, leaving outsiders really unable to guess him. thoughts.

Imagawa Yoshimoto is not an incompetent person. When he took over, the Imagawa family was far from its current strength. Being able to conquer a territory of hundreds of thousands of koku and ranking among the best in the entire world has already demonstrated his power.

Rather than deliberately consuming the power of the Matsudaira and Ii families, Asai Nagamasa was more inclined to think that Imagawa Yoshimoto was tied up by other things, so he had to sit back and watch.This situation looks very similar to Saito Yoshiryu a few days ago.

And according to what she said, the residents of Junfu City have been weakened since last month. It is not known whether there is a new epidemic or the water in the city is polluted.

However, combined with the actions of Master Guoxin, Asai Nagamasa has every reason to believe that Imagawa Yoshimoto arranged the spell taught to him by Master Guoxin, extracting the physical strength and energy of the residents in the city, and then doing something.

Unfortunately, I don't have the energy or excuse to go to Sunfu Castle to find out what's going on, but this makes the alliance with Oda Nobunaga more and more important.

No matter what Imagawa Yoshimoto wants to do, he must first defeat the Oda family before he can face the Asai family.

Asai Nagamasa nodded slightly: "What talents do you have?"

After all, the Ii family is a samurai family with a long history that has been passed down for more than 500 years, and is so feared by the Imagawa family. It must have a lot of background. Now that Ii Naomori has sent his daughter here, it can't be a mascot, right?
Although the quality of this mascot is very high, those who use sex to influence others will not last long. Ii Naomori should not be such a stupid man, even for the sake of the friendship between his Ii family and Asai family. Will he let his daughter have some capital to some extent?
At this time, the little kunoichi and Suzuki Akane next to them also pricked up their ears, wanting to listen carefully.

Indeed, if it was just a comparison of figures, they would definitely be defeated. If it was a comparison of faces, they didn't have enough confidence. But if it was a comparison of ability, then they were still quite confident. After all, they had done it in person many times. He participated in the family's external battles and made considerable contributions!

Although I don’t know why the topic suddenly changed, when asked here, Master Jiro breathed a sigh of relief: "Yes, Your Highness, I read some scriptures and Japanese songs in the nunnery, practiced some boxing, and occasionally studied There are some languages ​​and ancient texts from Cathay."

Asai Nagamasa couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly. Sure enough, she was not just a vase.

For the woman in Nibon now, as long as she learns any of the three things she just mentioned, she is actually considered outstanding. She has dabbled in all three, which shows that her father and the nun she belongs to An was really nice to her.

I just don’t know if getting this kind of treatment is also full of the meaning of being able to live in something rare.

Asai Nagamasa didn't like to speculate on others with the greatest malice, but Nippon's Warring States Period was such a reality.

So he spoke in extremely fluent Sinian: "If you understand Sinian, can you read and write?"

He had already figured it out from the Argoth Chamber of Commerce. Although the names were different and the history was different, there were still many similarities between the Cathay Empire and the ancient oriental country in his previous life, including language and writing.

The writing used in the Cathay Empire is the Great Seal Script, and the spoken language is formal Mandarin. Basically, only those who write words, or some people with special status, or on certain special occasions, can talk a lot.

Master Jiro was obviously stunned for a moment, and then she responded: "Yes, I can read and write. Unfortunately, I am a bit stupid. It took me more than ten years of hard work. Until my teacher passed away, I only mastered about 1000 About two to three hundred words.”

Her intonation was a little strange, but her pronunciation was extremely standard. What made Asai Nagamasa even more satisfied was that she knew a lot of Chinese characters.

There are only about two to three thousand commonly used Chinese characters. Shinkuro, who was the former young master, can only write dozens of them, which is already considered very impressive.

But the most powerful one is Takenaka Hanbei. His guardian spirit and teacher Shirasawa came from Cathay, so Hanbei who was educated by him basically mastered all Cathay characters.

Of course, after receiving Huanglong's inheritance, Asai Nagamasa also learned a lot, and after receiving Bai Ze's spirit, he also improved a bit, but now he only has about eight or nine hundred words, which is less than The girl in front of me is still inferior.

"You know how to punch and kick, why don't you show it to me?"

Upon hearing this, Master Jiro was obviously excited. She responded immediately, then opened her stance a few meters away and started practicing her martial arts.

After rehearsing a cup of tea, she slowly retracted her stance after sweating slightly on her forehead, saluted Asai Nagamasa, and then looked at him a little nervously, as if waiting for something trial.

Although she had always thought that she was stupid and was extremely slow to learn the languages ​​and characters from Cathay, she also knew that her performance today would largely determine her future life.

"Clap clap clap!"

Asai Nagamasa was the first to applaud. Not to mention, even with his current critical eye, the other party's martial arts skills were pretty good.

Although there are not too many fancy moves, the basic skills are extremely solid, and the tiger is so powerful when he swings his fists, it is almost like a real tiger is waving its palms and extending its claws.

This made him guess that the other party's teacher was probably not an ordinary nun. He was not surprised at all when he even said that the other party was from the Cathay Empire.

After all, there is no such animal as a tiger in Nibon. This kind of martial arts based on tigers may only come from the opposite side of the sea. Unfortunately, she has passed away, so I have no way to find out.

And her physique is also very good. After playing for such a long time, she still breathes steadily and her heartbeat is normal. She only sweats a little bit, but she didn't grow so big in vain.

If they were on the battlefield, with her fists and kicks alone, the average ten or eight ashigaru would not be enough for her to hit. After all, her height alone would be enough to suppress them.

At the same time, when the other party was practicing martial arts, the Flame Tiger in his body also let out low, joyful roars from time to time, obviously becoming more and more attracted to her.

Then Ning Ning and Suzuki Akane couldn't help but clapped their hands, especially the little kunoichi, whose eyes seemed to be shining when they looked at each other.

Although she had a hint of hostility towards the other party before, but now that the other party has shown outstanding talents, although she is still a little wary, the hostility has quickly disappeared, because she knows that the other party's talents will never be ignored. What a waste, they are destined to be members of the Asai family in the future.

Suzuki Akane next to her was also a little surprised. She knew that if she didn't use weapons, even two more of her would probably be easily defeated by the opponent. However, unlike the little kunoichi, she was even more vigilant.

His Highness seemed to be extremely concerned about her when he first saw her. It would be fine if she was just an ordinary vase, but she has shown such potential. His Highness will definitely not let her remain an ordinary maid. Then The threat to myself has become even greater.
However, Asai Nagamasa still had a question: "You just said that you have learned some boxing and kicking, but why did you only have boxing and no kicks just now?"

As soon as he heard him ask this question, Master Jiro, who had temporarily calmed down because of the recognition, suddenly turned crimson.

Because of extreme nervousness and shyness, she tangled her hands together: "That, that, because, because of me."

She muttered several words, but she still didn't tell any real reason.

On the other hand, the little kunoichi next to her was thoughtful, and then she couldn't help but snicker: Hey hey hey, let you grow up so big, there will always be something that will cause you trouble, right?
And your footwork must be a weakness. After all, you can't see your feet. Hmm, you must write this down. It will definitely come in handy when you bully her in the future.
After asking this question, Asai Nagamasa also felt a little awkward. Looking at the extremely shy look on the other side, and then looking at the snickering little kunoichi next to him, how could he not understand?

It's too big, and sometimes it's really a burden. When she was boxing in her robe, she could see the obvious ups and downs. If she showed off some kicking skills, I'm afraid he wouldn't even care to watch her martial arts, but Just focus on watching the football.
He coughed quickly to cover up our mutual embarrassment: "Let's do this, you stay with me first, and after a few days we get to know each other better, then I'll let you choose for yourself, whether to become an Onmyoji or join Axiu and the others in killing ghosts." Team."

Yanhu values ​​​​the other party so much. It is obvious that she even has extremely extraordinary talents. With Yanhu by her side, no matter what choice she makes, her future achievements will definitely be extraordinary.

"Yeah? Can I do that too?"

Because what he said was so shocking, even Master Jiro suddenly forgot about his shyness. She just covered her mouth with her hands, stared at Asai Nagamasa with her round eyes, and looked at her in astonishment.

Well, how can I put it, sometimes people are indeed a little stupid, but coupled with this figure and appearance, it is really hard to be annoying.

"That's right, our Asai family only values ​​ability, not origin. I don't know what your father told you, but in my family you can also fight like a samurai, or become an onmyoji, learn spells, and summoning styles. god."

"I have only one requirement for my people, and that is loyalty."

Hearing what he said, Master Jiro blushed again. His Highness said that he is his person, am I also his person?
But she still nodded hurriedly, causing another wave of waves in her chest. Even the loose robe could not completely cover her foul figure.

Asai Nagamasa nodded slightly, but he was thinking in his heart. After Muramasa made the finished product using Yatogami's scales, he must give her one first. Otherwise, once she appears in a formal occasion, many men may look at her. I couldn't help but float over.

And with such a strong battle armor, she can probably let go of her hands and feet to start the battle, without delaying her long legs.

No, we can't wait. We should take her there now. Otherwise, how can she wear the scale armor that Muramasa originally prepared for A Xiu and Wu Ming?I'm afraid it will be bursting immediately!

"Well, one last thing, you don't have an official name yet, do you?"

Seeing the other party nodding, Asai Nagamasa couldn't help but smile: "Since you have joined our family, I will give you the character 'tiger'. From today on, your name will be Ii Naotora. How about it?"

The father's name is Ii Naomori, and the daughter's name is Ii Naotora, which is quite the same, and if she can show enough loyalty, he will give her another thing.

But for now, it shouldn't be a big problem. This naturally stupid girl with a seriously foul figure probably doesn't have the brains to figure out complicated conspiracies. Most of her nutrients should have gone there!

"Yes, thank you for the name given by His Highness. I, Naotora Ii, will definitely be loyal to my family and serve Your Highness!"

The girl Jiao Didi responded, and at the same time secretly made a determination in her heart, for the sake of her father's request and for the revival of the Jingyi family, no matter what, she will serve His Highness well, no matter what method it is in!
