You Long sat in the room, frowning.
The person on the side looked at the calligraphy and painting and couldn't help but wonder: "Boss, why are you so troubled? Our plan is perfect. As long as the execution goes smoothly, we are at least 80% sure of completing this mission."
You Long shook his head and said, "You are half right."
"There are no loopholes in our plan, but the problem is to execute it successfully."
You Long recalled the aura of Oda Nobunaga when he was talking to him just now: "Everyone has his own path. The meaning of path can mean choice, decision, or the way that one is loyal to, or the way one is loyal to. idea. And this..."
… …
"Also known as the heart of the Tao." The old man sat on the tree trunk, swinging his wrinkled feet back and forth, and threw the eaten core in his hand towards the dragon. The young man frowned and opened the core with the wooden gun in his hand: "Daoxin?"
The old man nodded: "Taoist heart is very important in practice. Of course, not only practicing martial arts, but also every successful person has a firm Taoist heart."
"Like some people who serve God, they all think that they are working for God and are convinced of it. Therefore, they can enjoy it even if there is no reward. But imagine if these people suddenly thought one day: What is the existence of God? does not exist?"
"The moment they have this idea, their Taoist heart is not firm, and they cannot continue to do things that must be persisted. Because they no longer believe in the existence of God."
"Some extreme examples, those who are extremely evil, have a firm Taoist heart."
The old man yawned, but he was extremely stable while lying on the branch, with no intention of rolling down: "Like some evil people, they also believe that what they do is right. If one day their conscience suddenly discovers, Then they will be eroded by the evil deeds they have done and even go crazy. This is the Taoist heart."
"I once saw a person who suddenly opened his eyes and asked me with a confused face when his practice reached an extremely important stage: Is this the right path for me?"
The old man's usually playful and smiling face also became serious, and he looked at You Long: "The next moment he spoke, his whole body was shattered into pieces and turned into ashes. What caused his death was precisely the power in his body."
"Because his Taoist heart was impure and he doubted his own strength, when his strength eroded, he died without any resistance at all."
"Therefore, every successful person or every master has a very firm Taoist heart. These people have good and bad qualities. The bad thing is naturally that everyone is stubborn. As long as it is something they believe in, it is bullish. Not moving either."
After saying that, the old man returned to his usual playful smile and pointed at himself: "I am the same person. So, continue to stab him a thousand times."
The dragon's screams echoed through the mountain peaks for a long time...
… …
"Therefore, Oda Nobunaga gives me the impression that he is a man with an extremely firm mind. For a person like this, I don't know if he would do such a thing as "escape". At least in his dictionary, this kind of The act is called running away.”
When everyone heard this, they also fell silent.
Yulong's worries are not unreasonable, and according to Nobunaga himself: How many dangers have I, Oda Nobunaga, encountered in my life? If I run away knowing there is danger and are afraid, how can I complete my hegemony of deploying weapons all over the world
You Long sighed: "I can only walk around."
At this time, everyone had heard some sounds.
The sound of scolding and... the whistling of arrows.
You Long put on the Wolong mask, and his face under the mask was as dark as water: "Everything is going according to plan. Wang Shi and Sasaki are following me. Shu Qing and Dante are responsible for helping us clear our escape route. Feng Xing, you are the most important part. So you must act quickly. If you are too late, you must notify us immediately, and Xiao Ding will come over to help you."
The five people all nodded after hearing this.
You Long shouted: "Let's go!"
The six people rushed out of the residence and saw flames rising into the sky!
In the distance, you can still see flaming arrows hitting Honnoji Temple like shooting stars.
The sound of burning flames, the clash of weapons and the shouts of soldiers became the main theme of the entire Honnoji Temple.
In the center of Honnoji Temple, the temple door opened, and Oda Nobunaga walked out with a frown on his face: "What's going on?" Mori Ranmaru's face was ugly: "Report to Lord Nobunaga, it seems that Akechi Mitsuhide has rebelled! That traitor !" Although Oda Nobunaga's face darkened, he was not as ugly as expected: "Now is not the time to pursue the case. Members of the Oda family, pick up your weapons and follow me to face the enemy!"
Seeing the appearance of Oda Nobunaga, the young guards of the Oda family, who only numbered a hundred or so, looked at the blood-red cloak with feverish eyes as if they had been given blood! Oda Nobunaga is their god in their eyes!
But Mitsuhide Akechi brought more than 13,000 soldiers and horses. How could these mere hundred people resist
I saw Akechi Mitsuhide leading the soldiers and riding a horse slowly.
There were only a few thousand soldiers behind him, because more were guarding the exit of Honnoji Temple. This can be said to be a last-ditch battle. Unless Oda Nobunaga dies, he will die. So he can't let him go!
Oda Nobunaga looked at the slowly approaching Akechi Mitsuhide without any fluctuation in his eyes. Although Akechi Mitsuhide sitting on the horse was taller than Oda Nobunaga, Oda Nobunaga's eyes seemed to be looking down at this moment.
… …
At this time, You Long, Wang Shi and Sasaki all arrived. Youlong took a step forward: "Lord Nobunaga, please retreat immediately. We have found a retreat route!" Nobhime and Mori Ranmaru's eyes lit up when they heard this: "Really?" Oda Nobunaga laughed wildly. With a sound of laughter, the surrounding flames rolled in the opposite direction subconsciously: "There is only Oda Nobunaga who died in battle, and there is no Oda Nobunaga who escaped!"
"Mask, take my woman and Ranmaru and run away! I, Oda Nobunaga, will repay this kindness in my next life!"
"Do you think you really have a chance to escape?"
Akechi Mitsuhide's voice sounded at this moment. His voice was feminine. The softness of Oda Nobunaga's voice was different from his, but Akechi Mitsuhide's voice always gave people a gentle feeling, a feeling of closeness.
Oda Nobunaga sneered: "Mitsuhide, I, Oda Nobunaga, treat you well. As soon as you join the Oda family, I will give you the position of important minister. At the same time, I will arrange for you to guard important cities such as Tanba Kameyama Castle. Even if you win, I ignored the objections of Ie and Hideyoshi (Shibata Katsuie, Hashiba Hideyoshi, relatives of Oda Nobunaga).”
Oda Nobunaga looked at Mitsuhide Akechi calmly: "I, Oda Nobunaga, am not afraid of death, I just want a reason."
The black shadow behind Oda Nobunaga suddenly swelled, and Nobunaga's face was like an angry Buddha:
for!
what!
opposite!
I!
The samurai behind Mitsuhide Akechi all held the handles of their swords tightly, their palms trembling slightly. Nobunaga's powerful roar made countless soldiers tremble, and some even subconsciously wanted to kneel down.
