Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 198 197. People from the Ming Dynasty, Southern Barbarians

Lan En was not surprised where the Ronins lived.

To put it bluntly, the group of 'ronin' itself has the attributes of mercenaries, vagrants, etc.

There are many people who were originally farmers who tasted the sweetness of violence during the war, and then never let go of the sword. These guys who have some mental problems and like to exchange blood for money are the main body of "ronin".

During the war, these people would be hired by wealthy landowners, but no one would really trust them.

In ancient Japanese cities, the center was usually where the lord and warriors lived. Then, due to the economic concentration, ordinary people gathered in the periphery, which was called a "castle town".

It's normal for Ronin to be placed here.

The thin wooden door was pushed open by him after the leading soldier reported.

Suddenly, an unpleasant smell came out.

Although Lan En, who had lived in King's Landing for a period of time, could completely bear the stench of sweat, blood, and alcohol, the psychological discomfort still made him frown.

When you walk into the small courtyard in front of the longhouse, you can see many disheveled men sitting or lying in various places in the longhouse without discipline.

Most of their bodies have a layer of black stains made from sweat and dust, which can turn into mud balls if rubbed with your hands.

They had their own samurai swords stuck in their arms and waists. Even though it was already autumn, there were still bugs interested in the smell flying around on the swords.

This is where the stench of blood comes from.

Lan En's conclusion about the 'ronin' was correct. Most of these people were farmers who had earned a living by fighting. They thought that fighting only required ferocity and viciousness.

But I have no idea how to take care of my sword.

They're just a bunch of amateurs who can kill people.

And among these people, in the middle of the hall of the longhouse, a young warrior was sitting there on his knees with his eyes closed.

Although he looked like he was meditating, Lan En looked at him clenching his teeth and clenching his hands tightly on his thighs, as if he was out of sight and out of mind.

Wearing a blue and white swordsman uniform, with a samurai Tsukiyo head shaved.

Regardless of appearance or cultivation, Lan En was certain that this person was the 'Nogami Inosuke' the soldier said.

At this time, the young warrior didn't even open his eyes and waved his hand impatiently.

"Is it another ronin who has come to seek refuge? Let him go. Lord Genzai Nogami has ordered us to stop taking in ronin today, and I should return to my young master."

But before Nogami Inosuke finished speaking, the soldier who led Lan En through the door trotted up the steps, took off his shoes and stepped on the wooden floor, reached the samurai and whispered.

"But, Inosuke-sama, this ronin...he is a little different!"

Although it seems that a soldier with military pay should not meddle in other people's business, who makes Lan En really good-looking?

Regardless of man or woman, who would have a dislike for a good-looking person?

What's more, Lan En was not arrogant or vicious at all in this journey. He had never experienced such polite conversation with a little soldier in his life!

Naturally, he will say a few nice words.

Nogami Inosuke opened his eyes impatiently, and immediately saw the exotic shape, exquisite and gorgeous long sword in the soldier's arms.

Strange, are there really ronin who can take the initiative to disarm?

Driven by this curiosity, Nogami Inosuke, who had already had enough of ronin, turned his eyes to the door.

"."

The young warrior's mouth slowly opened and his eyes blinked.

There are many elements to this combination of tall figure, handsome face, silver hair, exotic armor and sword! He can't handle it!

On the contrary, it was Lan En, who was now leaning against the closed wooden door, crossing his arms.

After noticing Nogami Inosuke's gaze, he raised a hand and said hello.

"Lan En, a native of the Ming Dynasty, learned skills from Nanman. Today he came to the Pingtian clan to find a job."

As soon as these words came out, there was silence at first, and then discussions like flies buzzing suddenly broke out in the long house.

There are only a few words in the self-introduction, but these few words together are simply confusing.

‘Nanman’ refers to Europeans in ancient Japan. Because they mostly landed in southern Japan by boat, they were thought to be barbarians from the south.

Lan En heard from Kotaro's tone on the road that it was now the end of Japan's Warring States Period.

Except for Wei Ming, the inner army has made the whole world surrender.

From this, Lan En felt that this 'inner palace' might be a different world version of Tokugawa Ieyasu.

He deliberately described his experience in a way that was full of absurdity and could be called fantasy. After crossing the Eurasian continent, I turned around and walked again.

Because the inner army wanted to arrange internal support in Ashina Kingdom, it should be impossible to select such a conspicuous guy.

Therefore, the more conspicuous you are, the more trusted you will be.

For example, Nogami Inosuke was in front of him. Although he was stunned, he never doubted whether the person in front of him was a spy.

Which spy has such a face and doesn't even cover it? !

Who doesn't want to take a second look when walking on the street? Why don't you start working? !

The young samurai's brain was running out of energy, and the hand he had placed upright subconsciously scratched his neck.

"Ah, actually today is not over yet, you can be considered a ronin who arrived today."

Nogami Inosuke even subconsciously used honorifics.

He stood up and walked down the front steps.

Lan En's originally calm eyes widened slightly. The moment the other person stood up, Mentos had already measured the other person's height.

One hundred and seventy centimeters.

The height of the samurai was even more exaggerated than that of ordinary Japanese of the same period.

There must be something special exerting influence in this world.

Inosuke walked up to Lan En and looked up at the demon hunter.

So tall. Is this from the Ming Dynasty? Just like serving a general.

Wondering in his heart, the young warrior was also organizing his words.

Although the Hirata clan is recruiting ronin, they cannot recruit them all, as there will definitely be spies.

They still did a basic background check.

People in this era may never go out to the boundaries of ten miles and eight villages in their lives, and the relationship between them is very easy to check.

But the person in front of me calls him "Ming Kingdom" and "Southern Barbarian" at the same time. Where can I go to find out?

But it would be too wasteful to push this obviously powerful combat power out in this tense time.

"Excuse me. How did you enter Ashina?"

Inosuke thought to himself, it's too far away to check, so there should be traces of you coming here.

But Lan En is impervious to fire and water.

"After I entered Japan, I traveled to the mountains. I was not familiar with the place. I wandered in because of my fascination. It happened that Chen Bing of the Imperial Army was outside and couldn't leave even if he wanted to, so I had no choice but to join the Hirata clan."

Okay, that is to say, no one knows how you entered Ashina.

But there is nothing wrong with this statement. Ashina is steep and difficult to attack for the military.

With a large number of people and supplies, it is difficult to get in.

But if you are alone, have strong skills, and have some luck, you may indeed come in without feeling anything.

At this time, the wanderers were also attracted by the new 'elements' popping out of Lan En's body. They all lay eagerly on the floor at the door of the longhouse, watching what else was going on.

At this moment, another announcement came from the wooden door behind Lan En.

"Lord Inosuke, Lord Gensai Nogami has an order! Bring all the ronai he has taken in to my house, and he will inspect them personally."

Nogami Inosuke breathed a sigh of relief.
