I Was a Swordsman in Ancient Japan

"Hoo... Chi... Ph... Chi..."

The cold and dry wind continuously poured into Ogata's throat from afar.

Swallow a mouthful of saliva.

Like clear water flowing into the dry ground, the warm saliva moistened Ogata's dry throat, which made Ogata feel a slight tingling in his throat, but also felt a little more comfortable in his throat.

In Ogata's impression - this was the first time he ran so recklessly after he came to the Edo period.

Ruya finally appeared within Ogata's field of vision.

--arrive! arrive! nothing! It should be fine! Those people from Yuanshan shouldn't be crazy enough to bully the two weak women!

Ogata rushed into the room in one breath.

But he didn't find Ah Fu's busy figure.

I also didn't hear the sound of Azaki making drinks and ingredients from the kitchen.

All I could hear were soft conversations and low sobbing from the second floor.

The ominous premonition in Ogata's heart was already strong to the extreme.

Two steps combined into one step, quickly climbed up to the second floor, and after opening the door of the room where the voice came from, Oo conveniently saw A Fu, A Saki, and a shaved head dressed as a doctor. young people.

Ah Fu lay on the bed with his eyes tightly closed.

Ah Saki knelt aside and kept trying to cry.

The doctor knelt and sat on the other side of the bed, stroking Ah Fu's belly with a serious face.

"Ou... Ogata-sama...? Why are you here?"

"Ah Saki!" Ogata walked quickly to Ah Saki's side, then knelt down on one knee, looked anxiously at Ah Fu on the bed, and then at Ah Saki whose cheek was swollen, "What the hell what happened?!"

"It was the samurai who harassed Ah Fu before...! He suddenly broke into the house with several samurai."

"They said they wanted to find you."

"We said you weren't here."

"But they didn't believe it, and wanted to forcibly enter our house to search."

"Ah Fu won't let them in."

"So they..."

Speaking of this, Ah Saki couldn't go on anymore, raised her hands, covered her face and burst into tears.

Even if Ah Saki didn't continue, Ogata could guess what happened next.

Ah Saki's face was half swollen, and Ah Fu, who was already lying on the bed and receiving a doctor's diagnosis, had already told Ogata what happened afterwards.

Ogata's face began to darken at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The right hand on the leg, and the left hand that hangs down naturally, also began to slowly clenched.

Ogata, the samurai who harassed Ah Fu before, certainly knew who he was.

It is Itagaki of Ishikawa Sword Gym!

Too many things happened the night Itagaki harassed Ah Fu, which was impressive.

Ogata had a hard time trying to forget all the details of everything that happened that night.

At this moment, the doctor on the side finally finished diagnosing Ah Fu.

"There's nothing serious about your daughter. She didn't suffer any serious injuries, it's just that she has a lot of bruises on her body."

said the doctor.

"Just rest for a while. I'll prescribe some medicine for you to restore your body's vitality."

Hearing what the doctor said, the big stone that had been hanging in Ah Saki's heart finally fell.

Ah Saki hurriedly clasped her hands together, thanking the doctor continuously.

At this moment, Ah Fu, who had been closing his eyes tightly just now, slowly opened them.

Ogata, who was the first to notice Ah Fu's eyes opening, hurriedly bent down, looking anxiously at Ah Fu who had just woken up:

"Ah Fu! How is it? Are you feeling well?"

Ah Fu first looked at Ogata in front of him blankly.

Then he looked at Saki and the doctor next to him.

"Miss Azaka... Ogata-sama... I'm sorry..."

One by one with crying words,

Spit out from Ah Fu's mouth.

"I... I stained the clothes you two gave me..."

After all, big tears rolled down from Ah Fu's eyes.

Hearing Ah Fu's words, Ogata noticed that there was a touch of cherry blossom color in the corner of the room.

Ogata looked over.

This sakura color is exactly the sakura color Wufu he bought for Ah Fu in a joint venture with A Saki before.

If it weren't for Ah Fu's words just now, Ogata would have mistakenly thought it was just a rag that was thrown aside randomly...

"...Miss Azaki, are those clothes dirty by Itagaki's gang?"

"Hmm..." Azaki nodded while wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes.

This is an ancient society, but there are no washing machines or strong washing powder.

This dress has been so soiled that it is difficult to clean it thoroughly by hand washing alone.

"...Miss Ah Fu." Ogata raised his finger and gently wiped away the tears from Ah Fu's face, "Don't be sad, it's just a trivial matter to get dirty clothes, just buy another one."

"But...but..." Ah Fu's tears still didn't stop.

When Ah Fu seemed to want to say something more, Ogata took the lead and said:

"Miss Afu, you should have a good rest first."

After all, Xu turned his head and looked at the doctor kneeling opposite him.

"Doctor, please be sure to prescribe the best medicine to Miss A Fu. I will pay for all the medicines according to the truth."

"No problem. Please rest assured, Mr. Samurai, I will definitely fix Miss Afu's body as soon as possible."

"Master Ogata." Asaki said anxiously, "How can I make you spend money!"

"Miss Ah Saki, please don't be polite to me. I need to take some responsibility for the reason why you and Ms. Afu encountered this situation today. Miss Afu's medicine money should be counted on my head."

After finishing speaking, Ogata stabilized the two sabers on his left waist, and slowly stood up.

"Miss Azaki, you stay here to take care of Miss Afu. I'm going out for a while."

"Go out...? Ogata-sama, where are you going?"

"...Ishikawa Sword Gym."

After leaving these words, Ookai left from Azaki and the others' field of vision without the slightest bit of nostalgia.

Saki and the others didn't even have time to stop Ogata.

...

...

Ogata walked quickly through the bustling streets.

Even though there were many men, women and children standing, walking or running in front of him, Ogata did not slow down his pace at all.

"Uh...hey! You bastard! You walk without eyes! Uh..."

Ogata, who was going straight forward, bumped into the shoulder of a strong man who passed him by.

Although he bumped into someone else, Ogata still had no intention of stopping, did not apologize to the strong man, and continued walking forward without saying a word.

This strong man seemed to have a very explosive temper. After being hit by Ogata on the shoulder, he immediately angrily denounced Ogata as a "bastard" and loudly reprimanded him for "having no eyes".

He originally wanted to continue scolding Ogata a few more words, but after seeing the saber hanging on Ogata's left waist and the look on Ogata's face, the swear words that had already flowed out of his mouth were rejected by him again. Forcibly swallowed down.

It was replaced by a groan of astonishment and fear.
