Volume 1 First Trial Cry Chapter 25 slip away

After the lecture, Shimamoto Yoshijun, the academic director (director) of the medical museum, also came to visit the windmill after hearing the news, and extended an invitation to Naohide, "Naohide-kun is well-deserved. May I ask if you can take up a lecture in this museum?"

Naohide thought to himself, Fuso's ability to compliment people is well-deserved. I'm afraid you didn't even know who I was before, right? But Naohide was still very comfortable after hearing it. But it's hard to get things done with nice words, and the position of "training" is obviously a joke.

A big net catches small fish. If you really take it seriously, it will definitely be given to a "professor". I don't dare to think about "guiding" as a consultant for the time being.

"Shimamoto-den has won the prize. There are many talented people in the medical center, but Nao-hide's talents are sparse and his knowledge is shallow. I'm afraid that he might have misled the younger generation. Moreover, Nao-hide is still on a study tour and cannot stay in Saga for a long time. I'm afraid it's not suitable for him to be a lecturer."

Shimamoto Yoshijun didn't really want to hire Naohide as a teacher. As a minister, Naohide could not accept positions in various vassals privately. He also heard some feedback that Naohide knew how to make glass and seemed to know how to smelt steel, and there were windmill examples to prove it, so he thought

Let Naoxiu have time to communicate.

Although he privately asked Mr. Xuanpu to invite Naoxiu to help, as Mr. Xuanpu's disciple Naoxiu would definitely not be able to refuse, but this achievement belongs to Ito Xuanpu personally, and his appearance in the name of the medical center is also a good way to make Naoxiu famous, and Naoxiu gave

The Saga Domain has brought benefits, and Mr. Xuanpu can also enjoy the benefits as Naohide's teacher. This is a method that only old bureaucrats know how to achieve both public and private benefits.

After Naohide and he exchanged business boasts, Naohide finally agreed to visit Saga frequently during his study tour. Shimamoto also wrote a document with a seal to Naohide, stating, "Naohide is a visiting scholar at the medical school. Please take care of him as appropriate."

Both parties are very happy.

Naohide also asked Mr. Genpo to write letters of introduction to him, one to Mr. Hirose Amidō of Bungo Kunahita, and one to Mr. Yokoi Kokusu of the Higo Hosokawa family. Mr. Xuanpu had extensive friendships with Hirose Amidō and Yokoi.

Xiaonan also had some contacts. Although Mr. Xuanpu was curious about what Naoxiu was doing when he visited two Confucian scholars, he was aloof and did not want to get into trouble and did not ask the reason. He just wrote two letters and wrote them off in one go.

In the evening, Mr. Xuanpu invited Zhixiu to spend public funds and had a farewell banquet with the teachers of Lan Xueliang. Everyone left happily.

Five days later, at the gate of Hita Hami Garden, a young man with an expressionless face said "No need", saying no to Nao Soo.

"Nagatoshi-san, it's necessary," Naohide bowed slightly, and then said with a smile. Toranosuke and Gakujiro stood on both sides, and the three of them smiled gently.

"It doesn't seem polite to just walk away, but what's going on with this guy? I've rejected him three times." Murata Nagatoshi's expressionless face finally showed a crack.

Naohide waited for a while and saw that Murata Nagatoshi didn't speak, so he said to the two students, "That's great, Nagatoshi agreed, let's go to the tea and rice house." The three of them left Xianyi Garden surrounded by Murata Nagatoshi who looked helpless.

It turned out that Naohide took four days to arrive at Bungo Kunihita and visited Mr. Hirose Amidō with a letter from Mr. Genpo. The elderly Hirose Amidō is the head of the famous private school Kangien and is very famous on Kyushu Island. Hirose

Mr. Selao left the table out of politeness when he saw Naohide, leaving Hanyiyuan's "Dujiao" to entertain Naoxiu - Dujiao is an assistant who assists teachers in managing students at Hanyiyuan, and is also an academically outstanding student, similar to

The head of another private school.

After complimenting Xian Yi Garden, Naoxiu asked to visit it. He said that he was originally going to accompany him in person, but Naoxiu said in the middle, "I can trouble you more there. I was very satisfied with seeing Mr. Danchuang just now. I am with you."

The conversation has also greatly enriched our knowledge. Let’s ask this classmate to take us to see him.” After searching around, Naoxiu finally found the target person with an ancient face. “My wife has been married, and my matchmaker has been thrown over the wall.”

It's up to you.

Xianyiyuan claims that "everyone who has served as a prime minister has the talent of the prime minister of the world." Seeing Zhixiu insists, it doesn't matter if he is a prime minister, "Yongmin Jun, these are the guests who are here to visit. Please entertain me. I'll excuse you first."

.

"

After the visit, the above scene happened, and Murata Nagatoshi was abducted by Naohide.

Naohide directly led Murata back to his ryokan. Naohide tried so hard to get close to Murata Nagatoshi. How could he just find a common people's restaurant "Chafanya"? Of course he had already made arrangements.

The private hotel that Naoxiu found this time was very high-end, and the guests had their own courtyard. Naoxiu was afraid that Murata would run away, so he took out the magic weapon before serving tea, "Yongmin-san, this is the orchid book I got by chance. Please appreciate it."

Bang bang bang——, Naohide took out all nine sets of his books, more than twenty orchid books were lined up, and Murata Nagatoshi was also shocked.

These days, the orchid book can only be obtained from the orchid country store, and it is expensive. The original orchid book cannot be seen by ordinary people. Murata Nagatoshi is also very neurotic. Normal people will think "What do you want to do?", but this person only thinks

"The opportunity is rare, hurry up and watch it, what will you do if it disappears after a while?".

Among the more than twenty books, Murata Nagatoshi only knew "Optics", "English Dictionary" and "Flan Dictionary" in Lan, but Murata's proficiency in Lan is good, as you can tell by looking at the beautiful words in the preface of "Optics"

This book is extraordinary, and when I read the other sets, my eyes glowed green.

In his previous life, Naoxiu's friend was a warehouse owner and had a cat. After the cat accidentally ate fish meat essence once, his friend later couldn't find the cat. Finally, he found that the cat starved to death on the fish meat essence sack in the warehouse. Real life story

, sometimes persistence is really a scary thing.

The orchid book is Murata's fish, and the good orchid book is his fish essence. Murata asked Naohide to ask questions, and Naohide answered all his questions. He also introduced the contents of other famous works to him. Murata was surprised and delighted when he heard this.

The truth is unheard of but it is thought-provoking. What is surprising is that it is so wonderful just by briefly telling it. So what should the whole content look like?

At this time, the proprietress served wine and food, and Naohide invited Murata to take a seat. Murata remained silent during the banquet, and Naohide didn't care. He told everything he could talk about since his study tour, saying that he would go to Xianyi Garden to say goodbye in the afternoon and go to Higo Domain the next day.

Visit Mr. Yokoi Konan.

After a hasty meal, Zhixiu stayed in the village to rest, and agreed to go back to Xianyi Garden in the afternoon.

In the afternoon, Naohide and his two students were startled as soon as they entered the house. The books were neatly arranged, but Murata was sitting there with red eyes, seemingly not resting at all. After Naohide sat down, Murata came directly to sit down.

"Murata is stupid and I don't know your true intentions. Please let Murata follow you."

Naoxiu laughed loudly. Who said that Bodhidharma was not good at speaking? He just didn't say it. When he needed to say it, he would definitely say it right.

"Yongmin Jun, how do I know it? It's not convenient for you to tell me, but I know that you are talented and gifted, and this time I specially invite you to serve as an official. As a court minister, Naoxiu, although he is not as high as Shi Gao for the time being, you and I have agreed that in three years,

If you want to leave, Zhixiu will give you gifts and will never break your promise."

"Here."

It is true that he is not very good at talking. Although Naohide did not dare to dream, he still hoped to be cool in front of the students. As a result, Murata did not cooperate. He is indeed a person who can end a conversation with one word.

There was no way, he had to live a life without being cool. Naohide went to Commercial Town and prepared a generous gift, sent it to Xianyi Garden, thanked everyone, and said something to the effect of "Your education level is really high, I think Murata Nagatoshi is the best"

Yes, I asked him to go back and help me study, and I specially prepared a small gift to express my gratitude."

They all said that they saw four or five beautiful-looking boxes, but they didn’t say anything. This Murata has only been here for less than a year. He doesn’t like to make a lot of noise and doesn’t have many friends. His grades are okay, but he can’t be said to be outstanding. OK, okay.

The gifts were delivered, and the private school was not a place where people were forced to stay. I told Mr. Hirose that Murata Nagatoshi had officially left Xianyi Garden.

Murata returned to the place where he lived and packed his luggage and clothes. He moved neatly and went back to Hatago with Naohide. Murata usually doesn't like to talk much, but he eats and drinks when he should. This man is not worried about anything.

It's good, at least it doesn't make people worry too much.

Next, Naohide and the other four slipped away directly from Bungo Kunahita. On the way, they were worried that Murata would not be used to it, but they found that both students were very tired, and Murata was very energetic after wearing leggings. He walked quickly and ate more.

Well, I still have the energy to read during my stay, so my worries are all in vain.

The only target that Naohide can deceive during this study tour is Murata Nagatoshi. It is impossible for anyone else to follow him. One is because he is young and has not yet established a reputation. The other is like Yoshida Shoin. How can he follow you if he is a feudal lord? Study tour

If you don't know how to swim, you have to hook up with a minister you just met once. It's not that cheap for a young man.

The more Naohide looked at Murata, the more he liked him. On the way, he greeted Murata and asked him how he was. The two students did not dare to be jealous after Naohide's instructions. These days, students would not dare to ask about secrets that the teacher did not tell. Don't ask. If you ask, you will start with the book.

Murata Nagatoshi, after inheriting the family business, was known as Soryoku and Ryoan. Later, he inherited the family business of Omura, a famous clan of the Choshu clan, and changed his name to Omura Nagatoshi, commonly known as Masujiro.

Born in April 1824 in Zhuqiansi Village, Jichi County, Zhou Fang State, he practiced medicine for generations. His father, Murata Xiaoyi, was also a doctor and was said to be proficient in orchid studies. Murata Nagatomin learned medical skills and orchid from his father since childhood.

Murata came to Xianyi Garden to learn Chinese and Chinese medicine. In ancient China, Confucianism and medicine were not divided into different schools. Famous Confucian scholars were generally good doctors.

In the future, Murata Nagatoshi became a famous military expert, and became an important military general on the Choshu side of the "Second Choshu Crusade" under the name of Omura Masujiro. He assisted Takasugi Shinsaku in defeating the shogunate coalition, and later participated in all the military wars that fell.

He was so illustrious that he was even known as "the best military advisor in the world at the end of the Bakumatsu" and "the father of the Fuso military system". After the success of the Restoration, he became the Daisuke (Deputy Minister) of the Ministry of War.

Like Saga's Westernized vassal military reform, Omura Masujiro advocated the use of new weapons, Westernized tactics and systematic logistics organizations. What was even more clever was that he insisted on abolishing the original way of forming a coalition army by retainers' private armies, and also insisted on abolishing

The system of selecting officers in the feudal army based on their samurai status established a modern Western-style army, and further attempts and improvements were made in tactics. He was also the initiator of the modern conscription system in the Restoration government.

And Omura has many folklore.

For example, his appearance is different from ordinary people, and his forehead is particularly broad. Some people gave him the nickname "Fire Blowing Bodhidharma". In addition to calling Bodhidharma Zen Master in Fuso, Bodhidharma also refers to an origin similar to a roly-poly. .

The origin object is Fuso's "object used to pray for good things to happen", which is similar to the Chinese mascot.

During the famine at dawn in Fuso, the abbot of Bodhidharma Temple taught people to make a "good luck Bodhidharma" tumbler, which means that Zen Master Bodhidharma survived the "seven disasters and eight difficulties" and still succeeded in the end.

Daruma is also a kettle in the shape of a copper Bodhidharma. Huobuki means fire. The nickname "Huobuki Daruma" refers to Omura's excessively large forehead. In addition, his hair is sparse and only has a low bun. From a distance, it looks like there is a copper kettle on the head that is spraying water vapor.

However, Omura's life experience is quite legendary. From the son of a village doctor who went through many hardships to a high-ranking official in the reform, no one can say whether the "fire blowing Bodhidharma" also means that he survived "seven disasters and eight difficulties" in his life but finally succeeded. Unclear.

Also, Omura is usually taciturn. I don’t know whether it’s because he is not good at words or because he doesn’t like to talk. It is said that he never answers other people’s questions immediately. He always thinks about it for a while before answering. His answers are also very brief. His tone of voice when answering is unusually sure, leaving no room for doubt. room.

It is said among the people that before an important battle, Omura placed the Satsuma clan's troops in the most dangerous position. Saigo Takamori was familiar with it and said: "Is it your intention to place the Satsuma troops in a fierce battle?" Omura held the fan and fanned it for a long time. , looked up to the sky and was speechless, and after a while he said: "Of course we will win." Xixiang said no more.
