Chapter 1465: 1437 Stranger Sakai
Chapter 1465 1437. Sakai the Wonderful One
Ando Mamoru, the lord of Iwamura Castle?
Immediately after Daisuke Kikuchi introduced himself, Lan En immediately extracted the key information.
The witcher thought calmly.
Is this the territory of Meino Country during the Warring States Period?
Lan En has always been interested in history before completing the college entrance examination.
He has also dabbled in foreign history, but the definition of "foreign" is too broad, so naturally he cannot read widely and appreciate it deeply.
Mostly just understanding.
As for this 'Ando Mamoru', Lan En only vaguely remembered who he was as one of the "Three Men of Mino".
At first, he thought it was a joke that this title of second grader actually appeared in serious records.
It can only be said that the Japanese chuuni is indeed inherited from history and has the same origin.
Since Daisuke Kikuchi has proved that Lan En is not a monster and has a special identity.
So he directly invited Lan En to the village, wanting to see what this Ming man was up to in the name of hospitality.
Lan En originally wanted to find out from the locals what the extraordinary powers in this world were that they were entangled with as soon as they came here, so there was no reason to refuse.
So when he followed him into the village, he made a vague gesture behind him, so that Qilin and Velvet Ball in the distance wouldn't be nervous.
When Lan En really approached the village gate, the small group of guard soldiers gathered at the gate obviously swallowed their saliva.
After all, in this Warring States period with supernatural power, although the average height of each person seemed to be 1.67 meters, they only wore a thin single piece of clothing.
When Lan En walked past them, both in terms of height and thickness, the demon hunter seemed more like a ferocious war machine than a weak flesh and blood body.
As we walked into the village, many people poked their heads out of the door, wanting to see what was causing such a fuss.
Most of the houses in the village are wooden huts and thatched huts, and they are filled with the heavy smell of body odor and feces of large livestock.
According to Daisuke Kikuchi's introduction, Jusanzakura Village is mainly famous for being a post station for various fleets to dispatch cattle and horses.
For some reason, these large animals seem to have an easier time maintaining their health and weight here.
Over time, everyone is willing to rest here.
As a result, the entire village was transformed into a service-oriented post village, and it did not have much arable land itself.
The place Daisuke Kikuchi used to entertain Lan En should be his own home.
Although this house is also a wooden hut, it still has a few paper windows, which shows that it is different from ordinary villagers.
The room was covered with wooden boards, but there was no straw tatami. There was only a four-square space in the middle of the wooden boards. Firewood was lit inside, and a pot was hung on a rope and hung over the fire.
Daisuke Kikuchi's wife was an old-fashioned woman. After serving two cups of tea, she quietly left.
At the door of the house, many people were still gathering, poking their heads in to take a peek inside.
They are a post-station village, and it stands to reason that they have much more knowledge than those ordinary villages.
But Lan En's temperament and appearance are really beyond what they can imagine. Even the samurai master has never seen such a mighty one.
The teacher from Sanying Village managed to maintain his composure and was the first to invite Lan En to drink tea.
He was actually a little worried that the other party would get angry in the name of "crude tea".
The amazing one.
This is a style that can increase the reputation of the upper class in this era, but is rejected by the lower class.
Just like during the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, because "filial piety" was required to promote officials, many jaw-dropping "filial piety stories" popped up.
If you want to get an official position in the government, you need to be famous, and in Kyoto, where the emperor and his ministers are located, it is logical to do some unique things to increase your reputation.
The more famous one is riding a horse naked while carrying a tree and singing songs.
There is no doubt that Kyoto's fashion is the current trend in Japan, and the trend of those who love it will spread throughout Japan.
Before that, Japanese helmets focused more on majesty and practical style, but by the Warring States Period, the decoration on the forehead of the helmet, that is, the 'front stand', began to become various.
The samurai were eager to show their uniqueness, and some even put the Chinese character for "love" on their helmets. Some people use paper tubes to surround their helmets. The paper tubes stand more than two meters tall, which is longer than a person’s height.
The romantic in the eyes of nobles and nobles does not look like normal people in the eyes of normal people, so the reputation is not good.
Lan En's [Smaug] armor, although it can be seen that its practicality is unquestionable.
But this armor style is definitely considered a "wonderful one" in Japan. More importantly, the identity introduced by Lan En himself
"What you said is too bizarre." After Lan En took a sip and put down the teacup, Daisuke Kikuchi shook his coat, Haori, and asked seemingly unintentionally.
"You are from the Ming Dynasty, and you also learned art from Nanman, so you must have come from Sakai?"
‘Sakai’ is a place name, and it is currently a major commercial gateway city for Japan’s trade with overseas countries. Because commerce is so developed, there is not even an official lord. Instead, it is jointly managed by big businessmen and recruits mercenaries for defense.
If Lan En is indeed a Ming native who learned his skills in the Southern Barbarians, this statement can be taken for granted.
But Lan En retorted with a calm expression.
"No. I came from Tanegashima." The sharp gauntlet gently patted the Arondette scabbard placed at the side. "I went all the way north and learned some local swordsmanship."
Tanegashima, where the Spanish and Portuguese first landed in Japan. Because they are located in the south of the Japanese archipelago, the Japanese call Westerners Nanman, mistakenly thinking that they come from the south.
Although Lan En's self-introduction is bizarre enough, if he landed in Japan from Sakai, then the following can be considered impossible.
Although Japan also has many pirates operating overseas, those who are accomplished in serious swordsmanship basically choose to establish their own schools locally.
If you land in Sakai, there is basically no chance to learn local swordsmanship. The merchant alliance in Sakai will not cultivate untrained mercenaries, they only want ready-made mercenaries.

But if you come all the way north from Tanegashima, there will be more stories along the way. It is also more difficult to verify.
Faced with Lan En's impeccable response, Daisuke Kikuchi opened his mouth, but he just slapped it and closed it again.
This warrior with a shaved Tsukiyo head has half of his hair white.
He's not young, but how have you ever seen a character like Lan En who speaks like a mix of Ming, Nanman, and local people?
At this time, not only many villagers came outside the door of Kikuchi Daijie's house to watch the fun, but some people who were resting in the post station also came.
Most of them had triangular sweat towels wrapped around their heads, nibbling rice **** with mixed grains and vegetables in their hands, and looked in from the door.
These people usually exclaim twice. The first one is because they saw Lan En's profile, and the second one is because they woke up from the profile of Lan En and realized the difference between the other person's body shape and that of a normal person.
"Lord Lan En has a transcendent grace." After holding back for a long time, Daisuke Kikuchi, a samurai, finally came up with such a compliment, and said stumblingly, "But I don't know, you are coming to Jusan Sakura Village...?"
"I just went astray originally." Lan En also continued naturally, "But I heard that there is a magical cherry blossom tree here, and I wanted to come and see it."
"Want to enjoy cherry blossoms?"
Daisuke Kikuchi pondered, but he didn't feel anything was wrong. Their village usually worshiped the cherry blossom tree as a god, and the Thirteen Sakura Village was originally a post station where news circulated.
It’s normal for people to come here because of their reputation.
In this weather, how can there be any cherry blossoms in full bloom?
"Please just think of me as a passing traveler." Lan En said politely and wisely, "This village is actually a large inn, isn't it? I am not a freeloader."
As he spoke, a Temerian Oren coin appeared between Lan En's fingers, and as he flicked it, it made a sweet chirp of precious metal.
At this point, Daisuke Kikuchi's brows had basically relaxed.
Although the world is not peaceful at the moment, there are wars and deaths everywhere, and the war has caused more people to fall into bandits and become bandits.
Most villages are repellent to outsiders because they are afraid that these bandits and bandits' insiders will sneak in, find out the situation, and cooperate with outsiders to rob, kill, and burn all the villages.
But if someone like the person in front of me were to walk around the streets of Kyoto, he might be able to seal his official position in the imperial court the next day.
What are you doing as a bandit?
As for the man in front of him who, with his good face, cheated people out of food and drinks, he had gold in his hands. Although it looked like southern barbarian currency, gold was gold.
It's unlikely to be dangerous, and there's money to be made, so just leave him alone?
Immediately, Daisuke Kikuchi wanted to straighten up and comply with Lan En's request.
But there was a burst of noise outside the door.
"The village chief is here!"
An old man wearing simple Shinto priest clothing walked through the crowd.
He looked quite arrogant. He nodded his head wearing a black gauze hat and greeted everyone around him with a smile.
Daisuke Kikuchi stood up and introduced Lan En and the village chief to each other before repeating what the demon hunter had just said.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The village chief didn't seem to have any objections, but after saying hello to Lan En again in surprise, he responded to what Daisuke Kikuchi had just interrupted.
