Nakagawa Eiko saw Ye Dong beheading Yoshida Matsukaku;
Thinking that if this news spreads back to Dadong, not only Ye Dong, but also himself will become the target of execution by the shogun and Miyamoto Daizo;
Suddenly, huge fear struck me!
By killing Ye Dong, maybe we can have an explanation with the shogun and Miyamoto Daizo;
So he took up his sword;
Walking towards Ye Dong step by step;
I saw Ye Dong forcing a smile, and saw Nakagawa Eiko's intention;
Said to Nakagawa Eiko;
"Sister Beauty, you are Xiaoxue's master. According to Chinese etiquette, you should be respected as an elder. However, you look too young, at most thirty years old, so I'd better call you sister!"
"Xiaoxue misses you very much. She often mentions you to me, saying that you are so kind to her. Not only are you superb in swordsmanship, but you are also young and beautiful. Unexpectedly, when I saw you today, it completely exceeded my imagination!
As the saying goes, a sight is better than a hundred hearings. You are younger than Xiaoxue said! more beautiful! "
Am I young?
am I pretty?
But thinking of Ye Dong was just on his deathbed;
The sweet words you say to yourself in order to survive;
The figure hesitated slightly;
Then he walked over without hesitation;
Just listen to Ye Dong say again;
"Yingzi, if killing me can really solve your problem, what's the harm if I hand over my life to you today?
Yingzi, for you!
I'd rather die! "
Yingzi? !
This kid actually called me Yingzi;
Nakagawa Eiko couldn't help but feel something in her heart;
In Dadong as the former suzerain of Nakagawa Qingliu;
No matter where he goes, Nakagawa Eiko is a kendo senior and Nakagawa sect master respected and admired by Dadong people;
Never before had a young man dared to claim his own life;
I even heard that this kid could actually die for himself!
Is it expressed so straightforwardly? !
No man has ever said that he would die for himself!
But seeing Ye Dong's face pale and shaky;
You know, he saved his own life;
It was for himself that he killed Yoshida Matsukaku;
I can't help but feel compassion;
But the feeling of compassion is fleeting and fleeting;
Humph, you are looking down on me too much if you want me to bypass your life just by your sweet words!
How could I, Eiko Nakagawa, be deceived by your sweet words!
So no more hesitation;
A flick of the wrist;
The tip of the sword trembles;
Be ruthless;
Stab straight into Ye Dong's chest;
At this time, after Ye Dong's internal energy was exhausted, he was no different from an ordinary person;
Under the fierce sword edge of Nakagawa Eiko;
It is difficult to survive;
So I simply closed my eyes;
Let the sword stab straight at his chest;
The suddenly quiet night sky;
There was a shout;
"Master, wait!"
A light figure suddenly ran over;
But he used his body to protect Ye Dong;
It was Yuki Aoi;
I saw two tears flashing on Aoi Yuki's unusually beautiful and pale cheeks, and said with a trembling voice;
"Master, if you really want to kill him!
Just kill me first! "
Nakagawa Eiko saw Aoi Yuki trying her best to protect Ye Dong with her body;
At the critical moment;
Quickly flicking his wrist;
The sword goes astray;
Passing by Yuki Aoi;
put away the sword;
so close!
Even so, Aoi Yuki's long skirt was also pierced by Nakagawa Eiko's sword!
said angrily;
"Xiaoxue, I didn't expect that you dare to block Master's sword, then I will kill you first!"
Aoi Yuki raised a face of incomparable beauty;
Facing the tip of the master's sword;
"Wait a minute, Master!
Please listen to what I say, even if I die by your sword, I will have no regrets!
After hearing this, Nakagawa Eiko couldn't help but hold back her sword;
Looking at Xiaoxue coldly;
"Master, Xiaoxue has no father or mother since she was a child, and you adopted me! You are so kind to me. Not only did you raise me and take care of me, you also taught me the art of swordsmanship!
You are my reborn parents!
Now this life is returned to you! It makes sense!
However, Master, before I die, I have a few intimate words that I want to tell you clearly. For the sake of our relationship as master and disciple, please give me this opportunity! "
Nakagawa Eiko looked at her beloved apprentice, Yuki Aoi, looking pitiful and sincere;
The way of the heart, too!
After all, the master-disciple relationship has lasted for more than ten years;
Now I am in a foreign country, facing separation and death!
Sooner or later, this is the same moment;
Let's hear how Xiaoxue argues!
Just listen to Aoi Snow saying;
“Master, things have come to this day;
You always think in your heart that everything is caused by my Hujun Ye Dong, but if we think about it carefully, if Ye Dong hadn't come forward, would Xiaoxue still be able to live in this world now?
I was afraid that he would be killed by the shogun on the Yamato!
If Xiaoxue made a mistake, betrayed the country, and was killed by the general, Xiaoxue would have no complaints!
The reason is that the shogun forced Xiaoxue to drink medicine, and it was a love poison. He also forced Xiaoxue to do shameful things. Master, how could you say Xiaoxue could do it!
And your master, when you went to ask the shogun to let Nakagawa Qingliu go, what was the general's attitude?
Not only does the general disagree, but he also wants to occupy you, and even forces you to kill Xiaoxue's man;
Master, let me ask first, do you think our shogun did the right thing in this matter? "
Xiaoxue paused for a moment and saw her master's face softening, so she continued;
"Furthermore, His Majesty the Emperor gave me as a gift to the Shogun, did he ask for my opinion?
Can we women in Dadong be given to others casually as gifts or objects?
In a country that flaunts Western democracy and freedom, where is freedom? Where is democracy? Where is the dignity of citizens? "
One sentence is spoken;
Nakagawa Eiko couldn't help being stunned;
Although I had doubts deep down in my heart and was extremely disgusted with the shogun's actions, rationally I was really unwilling to question the shogun, let alone have any doubts about my own country;
I just feel that fate is so unfair to me;
He and Nakagawa Qingliu were reduced to such a state;
All thanks to Ye Dong;
If it hadn't been for the appearance of this man, maybe Xiaoxue and herself could peacefully learn the way of swordsmanship and compete with each other in Nakagawa Qingliu every day!
Feel calm and peaceful inside!
But I never really thought that all this was not because of Ye Dong, but because of the Shogun! It’s because of the culture of one’s own country!
Because in Dadong, as long as you have enough power, especially the bureaucratic class that claims to serve the country and the army, you can ask the woman you like to serve you at any time!
And there will be no complaints!
Just listen to Aoi Yuki say again;
"In the past few months since I came to China, I have had nothing to do. Xiaoxue often studied the traditional culture of China and also went out to meet ordinary people!
To be honest, what I have heard and seen in the past few months has greatly impacted and shaken my faith and blind worship of the Emperor!
Chinese culture is vast and profound, and it is difficult for us to fully understand it. Among this vast traditional culture, there is a culture that occupies a core position and is the core spirit of Chinese culture. It is the "culture of harmony";
They are humble and courteous, cooperate for win-win situations, and never seek power. However, due to the dangerous living environment, our country has been pursuing expansion!
To be honest, I really don’t want to live in our country and be a victim of national interests! If it is impossible and personal dignity must be sacrificed for the sake of the country, then I will be limited to our generation!
My children, I would rather live in China!
Enjoy peace, freedom and tranquility! "
Aoi Yuki’s words were like a street light that suddenly turned on at night;
In Nakagawa Eiko's heart, it was like the sun was clearing from the clouds;
Isn't it?
Decades ago, Dadong invaded China in order to obtain its land and resources;
How much harm has been done to the people of this country!
The number of casualties reached tens of millions!
However, leaders of the Daito country are actually still visiting the Yasukuni Shrine;
But I still dare not face or admit that shameful history!
My heart is like a wave of waves;
Unexpectedly, Yuki Aoi has only been in China for a few months;
Such a big change happened deep inside;
However, the education he received since childhood did not allow him to change his mind about his own country and nation.
Otherwise, he will be labeled as a shame, which is a deeper shame than insulting a woman's dignity!
No, this Xiaoxue's thoughts are too dangerous!
She must be corrected!
Then he angrily scolded Yuki Aoi;
"Xiaoxue, as a citizen of any country, obey the country unconditionally! If necessary, you are always ready to sacrifice yourself for the country, even your life!
This is the basic obligation of every citizen!
I think you have been poisoned by this kid’s thoughts! "
"Master, you are right! As a citizen, you must unconditionally obey the interests of the country!
If the country needs it, I, Yuki Aoi, will sacrifice my most precious life!
But, take what happened to both of us;
Can unconditional obedience to the shogun be equated with obedience to national interests? "
