"We were not interested in knowing what the Japanese couple were arguing about, so after looking at them from a distance, we left."

"And the Japanese pair didn't seem to notice us from the beginning to the end."

"Then do you still remember where you saw these two people?" Ogata asked.

"Hmm... I don't really remember." Vasily shook his head, "After all, it happened a long time ago."

"We live in no fixed place and change places every few days, so I don't remember where I saw those two Japanese people."

Seeing that Vasili had forgotten where he had met those two people, Ogata was a little disappointed.

But the information Vasili just provided still has some value.

If the Japanese pair are really Xuanzheng and Xuanzhen, then Xuanzhen's mental state may be really bad...

Even Vasili, an outsider watching from a distance, could tell that the younger man did not look like a normal person...

"Then will you see this pair of Japanese people again, or other Japanese people with similar appearances?" Ogata asked next.

"No more." Vasili shook his head, "Since then, we have never seen the Japanese couple again. We have also not seen other people with similar appearances."

"That's it...I understand." Ogata bowed lightly to Vasili, "Thank you for the information you provided."

"It's okay." Vasily waved his hand, "No need to be so polite. Hiss..."

Before he finished speaking, Vasili suddenly took a breath of cold air and covered his chest.

Ogata: "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing... I just accidentally pulled the place that was injured by you just now." Vasily smiled, "Speaking of which, you are really powerful... This is the first time I have seen such a fast fist.

I have no power to fight back."

"Are you willing to follow us to our country later?"

"In our country, with your fists, if you participate in those boxing matches, you will definitely make a lot of money!"

"We Cossacks usually like to hold various boxing matches and gamble there!"

"With your ability, you will definitely make a lot of money!"

"No." Ogata politely declined, "I don't know any boxing skills. I only have brute strength. Boxing matches are not suitable for me."

"You are so humble." Vasili smiled bitterly and shook his head, "With just your strength and speed, even if you don't know any boxing skills, I think you can sweep all our boxers."

Vasili was not an idiot, he could tell that Ogata was just declining him politely.

His invitation to Ogata just now was just said in a playful manner, not seriously, so even if Ogata rejected his invitation, he did not feel depressed.

Originally, the only thing I wanted to ask Vasily was the clues related to the whereabouts of Xuanzheng and Xuanzhen.

All the questions I wanted to ask have been asked now.

But Ogata did not leave with Amachi immediately.

Because just now, Ogata had a second question that he wanted to ask Vasili.

"Vashili." Ogata said.

"Um?"

Ogata looked at the Kentucky long rifle placed on the gun rack not far away.

"Can you sell us this gun?"

"Ah, yes. In addition to the gun, I also hope you can sell us some of the projectiles used in this gun."

"Oh?" Vasili opened his already big eyes even wider, "You want a Kentucky Long Rifle?"

Vasili cast a surprised look at Ogata.

Atachi, who was standing next to Ogata, also looked at Ogata with surprised eyes.

"Yes." Ogata nodded, "You just said that this gun is currently equipped on a small scale among your Cossacks."

"So can you sell us a handful? The price is negotiable."

"Do you need bear skins and bear bile? We happen to have 2 bear skins and 2 bear gall bladders here."

"You actually want our guns...are you interested in guns?"

"Well, more or less. We may also need you to teach us how to use this Kentucky long rifle."

"Um... I'm sorry." After thinking for a while, Vasily raised his hand and rubbed his already messy short brown hair, "A gun is different from a telescope."

"For us in a faraway foreign country, guns and horses are our lives."

"I can give you a telescope at will. But not a gun."

"I can't just sell important guns to outsiders."

Ogata didn't give up: "Can't you really sell us one?"

"Well..." Vasili pondered, "Why don't you wait for our boss to come back."

"Selling guns is such an important matter. I can't make the decision, the boss has to make the decision."

"You can wait until the boss comes back and ask him again."

"Your boss?" Ogata asked, "Then when will your boss come back?"

"He took people to draw a few days ago. I think... he should be back soon."

"I will notify you when he comes back."

"...Okay then." Ogata nodded, "We will stay here for a few days anyway."

"Then when your boss comes back, can you please come and notify us in time?"

"Of course! But...as compensation, can you promise me something?"

"Thing? What's the matter? Don't say something too difficult."

"It's not that difficult..."

Vasili swallowed hard, and then looked at the naturally hanging hair below Ogata without turning his eyes...

hands.

Although he tried his best to hide it, Vasili still couldn't hide the fiery light in his eyes.

Ogata noticed the fire in Vasili's eyes, and his brows furrowed involuntarily.

This kind of light from Vasili...Ogata was somewhat familiar with it.

When I was lurking in Yoshiwara and working at the Shirobei Club in Yoshiwara, the tourists who came to have fun looked at the wandering girls with similar eyes...

"After I rest for a few days, can you come and compete with me again?" Vasily raised his right fist.

The battle with Ogata just now was still fresh in Vasili's memory.

Whenever Ogata's fist fell on him, besides feeling pain, he also felt as if his body was melting into the colorful mist, which was very refreshing.

The five bodies seemed to be shouting the same: Yes! That’s it! This is how boxing should be! No mercy! Fight as hard as you want!

Vasili also couldn't figure out why he felt so comfortable when a strong man's fist hit him.

He has asked other people that no one else is like him. No matter whether they are beaten by a weak person or a strong person, the rest of them will only feel pain and not feel comfortable.

Although he seemed to be very different, Vasily didn't care at all.

Today, Vasili experienced the most heartfelt and refreshing feeling in Ogata for the first time in a long time.

It's like after living as an ascetic for more than half a year, you suddenly discovered a beautiful girl with whom you can create beautiful memories for just 1 ruble.

The last time I had a similar feeling was at my boss's place. But his boss didn't like fighting with others very much. If he was not in the mood, even if Vasily talked about it, his boss would never fight him.

Vasili himself had forgotten the last time he fought against his boss.

He very much wanted to experience the joyful feeling he just experienced from Ogata again.

"You really like to compete with others..." Ogata murmured, "It's okay, but is your body good? When I was fighting you just now, every punch I threw was not light.

If you only rest for a few days, will your body be able to recover?"

"No problem! I have been fighting with people since I was a child. I have been fighting with people till I got old! I have developed a thick skin a long time ago."

"The injuries you left on me today will be completely healed with just a few days of rest."

Seeing that Vasili only asked to fight him again, Ogata couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

The fiery look in Vasili's eyes just now made Ogata think that he was going to make some very strange conditions...

"In that case, I'm sorry to trouble you." Ogata said, "When your boss comes, please go to Kuma Village and inform us."

"But when we go to other villages later, we need to follow the clues of the two people we are looking for, so we may not be in the village for a few days."

"Okay." Vasili nodded, "I will inform you when the boss comes back."

"If you happen to be not in the village, I will tell our boss first that you want to buy a gun."

"Well, I'm sorry to bother you." Ogata bowed lightly to Vasily again, "Then let's take our leave first."

Vasily stood up: "Let me take you out of our camp."
