Non-Honmaru Inner Honwan [Comprehensive]

Chapter 121

Of course, the five tigers retreat is... wishful thinking!

After being invited by Uesugi Kenshin in this way, his joy was so intense that it became substantive, even people who couldn't see his expression could feel his joy from the heart.

Especially when he found that Uesugi Kenshin didn't show any strange expressions because of his unusual eyes, the five tigers retreated even more happy.

He has a well-behaved and introverted personality, even when he was so happy that he didn't do anything disrespectful, he timidly held his luggage, and obediently waited for Uesugi Kenshin to go in first.

His animal-shaped eyes were half-closed because of a natural smile, and there was no cold light of a predator in them, and he looked no different from an ordinary child who saw someone he liked.His fragile, dependent attitude towards a reliable elder that appeared unconsciously was very natural, almost making Uesugi Kenshin think that they had met before.

However, if he really saw such a strange-looking person, Uesugi Kenshin promised that he would never forget-white hair and golden pupils, which has never been seen among the missionaries Uesugi Kenshin has seen.

In this way, the emotions of this young man named "Five Tigers Tui" are very strange... Is it a fake, or is it really such a feeling?

The former words are meaningless, while the latter words—if this is the case, Oda Nobunaga's heart is too big.

I have always heard of Oda Nobunaga's reputation as "Owari Idiot", but it is only now that I understand the difference in Saburo's thinking. Uesugi Kenshin feels novelty because of this completely unpredictable behavior, and at the same time, he can't help but feel sorry for the Oda family. Increased vigilance.

He didn't give Wuhu Tui any more extraneous glances, he drove his horse straight to the door before dismounting, and his followers dismounted in unison with his movements, surrounded him and walked forward, completely isolating Uesugi Kenshin and Wu Hutai.

Five Tigers didn't think it was wrong at all - he was very satisfied after seeing Uesugi Kenshin for real, even if he was a little disappointed with the status quo that he had to stay away from because he used to be Uesugi Kenshin, he was sensible enough not to go Ask for more.He watched Uesugi Kenshin's back disappearing at the door from a distance, and his vision was occupied by well-dressed and well-armed attendants, so he lowered his head again to prevent others from seeing his abnormal eyes.

Soon, people from the Uesugi family came out again—as the Oda family's envoys, to receive the Five Tigers.

By the time the Five Tigers met Uesugi Kenshin again, it was already a few hours later.

After taking off the hat and cloak, the white-haired dagger has pale skin, just like the skin color of many people in Echigo Snow Country.His same white hair hangs down softly, even covering one of his eyes. At first glance, it is impossible to tell which is the color of the skin and which is the color of the hair.Because many of the "Koga Ninjas" of the Oda family looked special, Saburo's close attendant Hori Hidemasa preconceived that these Token Fusangshin who bear the name of ninjas must be unreasonable, so they were forced to arrest them one by one. They were taught and tested before they were released—for this reason, they left a lot of psychological shadow on the Five Tigers.

But it was precisely because Hori Hidemasa couldn't tell whether he really thought so or the strict requirement of avenging his personal revenge, when he formally met with Uesugi Kenshin, the five tigers retreated in a decent manner.In order to show that he came here without hostility, he tearfully took off the dagger on his body and put it in the hands of the maid beside Uesugi Kenshin. He also took out the heavy gift in the bag and handed it to Uesugi Kenshin respectfully first. It was checked by someone else before it was presented to Uesugi Kenshin.When he was in the hands of Uesugi Kenshin, Wu Hutui was always kneeling and his back was straight.

He lowered his eyes obediently, waiting for Uesugi Kenshin's words.

This whole set of etiquette is not perfect, at least it is quite satisfactory.I have to say that there is something wrong with it, except for Wuhu Tui's strange appearance...

Only his clothes that looked like a military uniform were on his body.

"It's not so much what I like—it's better to say that it's what Oda Nobunaga likes." After seeing the gift that Saburo asked the Five Tigers to bring, Kenshin Uesugi, who was sitting on the top seat, commented in a neutral manner. , "It's a bit too gorgeous... In Nobunaga's opinion, is this within my acceptable range?"

Such words are not very polite, but after Wu Hutui heard it, he didn't feel that he was criticized at all, and his thin and weak voice was as soft as cotton wool: "If Master Jing Hu likes it, then, that's great. Already!"

What he said was very natural, so that Uesugi Kenshin, who was originally displeased because the Muromachi Shogunate was no longer alive under Nobunaga, and let the ninja come as a messenger to give gifts, raised an eyebrow strangely.He looked at Wuhutui carefully, and sure enough, after throwing away the attractive eyes at the beginning, the remaining facial features were very childish, even the hands and feet exposed when kneeling and sitting were thin, as thin as if there was only a layer of leather bag left Live the bones.

Not only a ninja, but also a child

Sending such a person to Uesugi's house, even if it is a demonstration, Oda Nobunaga is too arrogant

Uesugi Kenshin couldn't help but sink his face.He didn't have the habit of bullying children, so after Wu Hutui didn't understand the hidden thorns in his words and looked at him longingly, he still followed Wuhutui's words and said in a gentle tone: "Yes. I love so much."

This is true.He deliberately said that before, and he just used the mouth of the Oda ninja to express his attitude to Oda Nobunaga, but now it seems that this Koka ninja is really weak, and it may be difficult to convey such a demonstration.

Wu Hutui heard his affirmation, his small face seemed to be shining, and he pursed his lips and smiled contentedly.When he met Uesugi Kenshin on such a formal occasion, he seemed a little nervous, and said in a low voice: "It's, it's great to be liked by you..."

Uesugi Kenshin felt more and more strange.

He looked suspiciously at the strangely dressed man with a short knife, and then his eyes fell on the short knife (body) held by the attendant, which was tied to the waist of the five tigers before.The dagger and the scabbard are white with black spots, resembling tiger stripes, but at this time the dagger is generally used as a last resort, and rarely used in direct combat.

Even if it is difficult to use Hito and Taidao due to the limitation of height and limb length, you should use Wakizashi, or you can’t even use Wakizashi, so you have to use Senbon or Kunnai instead.And this self-proclaimed "Five Tigers Retreat" child has no other sharp weapon other than a dagger, which is a very strange thing in itself.

If you take a closer look... the dagger that "Five Tigers Tui" was originally equipped with is not only similar in the scabbard to his protective dagger called "Five Tigers Tui", but even the tan is exactly the same.

Did he deliberately make a dagger similar to his "Five Tigers" or even change its name to "Five Tigers"?

When Oda Nobunaga chose to attack Ashikaga Yoshiaki, Uesugi Kenshin had already made this person a key object of observation.He has also heard about Oda Nobunaga's deeds before his fortune. Whether it is the surprise attack on Imagawa Yoshimoto or the capture of Inabayama Castle, they are considered outstanding in military tactics.Just because Oda Nobunaga burned Buddhist temples, Uesugi Kenshin, who was a monk, has no affection for Oda Nobunaga at all, let alone a similar sympathy with Takeda Shingen.After that, Oda Nobunaga arrogantly expelled General Zhengyi from Kyoto, which made Uesugi Kenshin affirmed one point-Oda Nobunaga has no sense of dignity at all.

If such a character wants to have respect for Uesugi Kenshin, it is impossible for Uesugi Kenshin to believe it anyway.It is more likely to use "Five Tigers Retreat" to name the ninjas around him, so as to express his covetous heart towards Echigo—it's just a pity, according to the report of the spies planted by Uesugi Kenshin at Oda's house, this is called Echigo. The appearance of the "five tigers retreat" ninja from Oda Nobunaga's mouth should be when the Miyoshi family revived in Settsu, that is, before and after Oda Nobunaga fell into the siege.

If it was at that time that he wanted to despise the Uesugi family, Oda Nobunaga would be too ignorant.And it seems that the ninjas of the Oda family, in addition to "Five Tigers", also have famous swords such as "Jianjian", and names such as "Smiling Qingjiang", which they have never heard of.

...Or, "Five Tigers Retreat" is just a name

"I'm curious, why did the Oda family choose you as a gift this time?" Kenshin Uesugi retracted his gaze, and asked indifferently, "Usually they come from direct ministers or accompanying ministers. In your case... you probably don't have Yuanfu yet." "

"Yuanfu" Wuhutui repeated hesitantly when he looked at his age and was actually hundreds of years old. After meeting Uesugi Kenshin's calm eyes, he also relaxed, "I don't think I need Yuanfu..."

Yuanfu represents adulthood, just like Mori Chang can choose Yuanfu after the news of his father's death to support the lintel of the Mori family.But for Touken Fusangshen, age doesn't matter, the only purpose they are called in the world is to destroy the time retrograde army.

Beyond that, appearance and mind are irrelevant matters.

But the hesitant answer of the five tiger retreats obviously gave Uesugi Kenshin an answer that was completely different from the facts.Uesugi Kenshin, who is now a middle-aged man, showed an expected expression, and continued to ask: "It's so messy to ask people in Migen clothes to come and give gifts. The strange clothes on you are also Oda's clothes." Did the letter chief prepare it for you?”

Wu Hutui shook his head hastily, and argued eagerly in a low voice: "No, it's not—this, this is my own clothes. Because I thought I could see Mr. Jing Hu... so I took the clothes I wore when I appeared in front of the lord. I put on the clothes... because, because I want to see you with the original posture..."

"Don't be so nervous, I understand." Seeing Wu Hutui was about to burst into tears again, Uesugi Kenshin reached out his hand in time to stop Wuhutui from continuing to speak, and also stopped Wuhutui's teetering tears.

He said to Wuhutui gently, like an ordinary elder: "You seem to care about me a lot. Could it be because Nobunaga gave you the name of the short knife I hold 'Wuhutui'?" "

"It's not like that." As Uesugi Kenshin expected, the unsuspecting swordsman sincerely confessed his name, "'Five Tigers' is my, my own name. When I first met When the lord, I, I also said the same."

The admiration and longing that came out of his eyes showed no trace of fakery at all.

Uesugi Kenshin felt more and more strange.He looked at Wu Hutui in disbelief, frowned and said, "You... want to see me very much"

"Yes, it is!"

"Then, did Nobunaga Oda realize this and send you here?"

This question seemed to throw the five tigers back.He blinked blankly, subconsciously feeling that something was wrong with this kind of problem, but he obviously couldn't deal with the problem of the hidden machine front.Therefore, after thinking for a few seconds, the white-haired dagger chose to tell the truth.

"It was I who told my lord that I wanted to see you... Then, I rushed here with a gift."

Uesugi Kenshin: After a long time of trouble, it turns out that this is my fanboy.

-

Five Tigers' character... emmmm, I've never written about this kind of introverted and shy character before... I don't know how to handle it.

Well, when Uesugi Kenshin and the Five Tigers withdraw from the contract to fight tigers, you can return to Saburo's perspective and start fighting.

Thank you Mr. S for the landmine, what a da!Thank you for the lingering landmines, huh!
