The system sound...it's been a long time coming.

Qingdeng couldn't remember the last time he heard system sound.

The moment Yuichi Kataoka flew out upside down, the atmosphere at the scene changed.

In an instant, Qingdeng's body was extremely quiet.

A bunch of eyes that were either shocked, stunned, or confused fell on Kataoka Yuichi who was slowly sliding down the wall.

Qingdeng was not familiar with the "Rabid Dog Family".

So he doesn't know much about Kataoka Yuichi's status in "The Mad Dog Family".

However, judging from the expressions of the people around him... that is, the younger brothers of the "Mad Dog Family"... regardless of "status", at least in terms of "combat power", Kataoka Yuichi should be ranked at the top of the "Rabid Dog Family".

Otherwise, the younger members of the "Rabid Dog Family" would not be showing such shocked expressions as if they saw aliens coming.

Ayoto, who concluded that Kataoka Yuichi had completely lost the ability to fight again, slowly lifted his sanshin, and then slowly relaxed the muscles of his hands, fingers and arms with subtle movements.

Qingdeng's brows furrowed as he felt pain in his buttocks that came from his arms.

——As expected...swinging 9 knives in 3 seconds...for me now, it's still too reluctant...

As soon as this thought fell, a faint bitter smile appeared on the corner of Qingdeng's mouth.

3 cuts in 1 second, 9 cuts in 3 seconds... In terms of power and level of pretense, this is a wonderful move.

However, Qingden is still unable to use this move easily and freely.

Only by going all out and tightening the muscles of the whole body can one achieve such terrifying sword speed.

Talents such as "Bear's Waist +1", "Elephant's Core +1", "Speed ​​+4" and other talents are indispensable.

At this time, Qingden couldn't help but think: If talents such as "Bear's Waist +1" had reached the "+9" level, how terrifying would his sword speed be?

By then, let alone three dollars per second, nine dollars per second is not impossible.

After all, the world Qingden currently lives in is a "low martial arts world".

In the "low martial arts world", it is reasonable for things to happen that violate the laws of physics.

Thinking of this, Qingdeng couldn't help but feel that "the road ahead is long" and "the road ahead is very long".

Kataoka Yuichi's body is indeed strong.

They were all blown away by Qingdeng, but they didn't faint on the spot.

However, despite this, he temporarily lost the ability to stand up.

"Uh...! Uh...!"

Kataoka Yuishi groaned and put his hands on the floor, trying to get up.

However, his struggles all ended in failure.

In the end, he seemed to give up and lay on the ground, panting like a cow.

There was still silence all around a second ago, but now "ripples" slowly appeared.

Immediately afterwards, the "ripples" changed into "turbulent waves" at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Perhaps due to stress, the younger members of the "Rabid Dog Family" who gradually recovered from the shock, daze, and other emotions tightened their encirclement around Qingdeng and others.

Zuo Nazi and the General Secretary re-established their "battle posture".

Qingdeng clenched the bamboo sword in his hand and silently prepared for battle.

However, he never got carried away by the tense atmosphere around him from beginning to end.

Today's visit to the sunroom is not to fight with anyone.

If he gets into a fight with the younger members of the "Rabid Dog Family", the situation might get out of hand.

Therefore, Qingden, who did not want to further tense the atmosphere at the scene, cleared his throat and shouted loudly:

"Please calm down! I'm not here to compete! I just want to see your boss!"

With the blessing of the gift of "piercing clouds and cracking stones", Qingdeng's voice is so resonant?

Not only inside the house, but also passers-by on the street outside clearly heard Qingdeng's shouts.

However... the surrounding "Rabid Dog Family" boys were completely unmoved and did not lift the siege of Qingdeng and others. They continued to stare at Qingdeng and others as if they were faced with a formidable enemy.

In the midst of this chaos, a lazy male voice without sadness or joy suddenly sounded:

"Who wants to see me?"

Qingdeng was startled, and then subconsciously raised his gaze to follow the sound, looking towards the direction from which the sudden male voice came - the stairs on the east side.

I saw a young man in his 30s appearing on the stairs leading to the second floor.

In the Edo period when average life expectancy was not high, 30 years old was an age that could be classified as "middle age".

But in the eyes of Qingdeng, who still retains modern ideas, anyone before the age of 40 is considered a young man.

This man has an angular diamond-shaped face, sharp eyeliner-like corners with many fine lines, a tall nose like a Caucasian, and very short hair with neither a shave nor a long hair.

He is eye-catching, with a thick, dark beard surrounding his mouth.

Probably because he had just woken up, there was still a vague look of tiredness on his face and eyes, and he was wearing a crooked, loose and colorful undershirt.

Short hair, stubble, colorful underwear... Regardless of appearance or clothing, no matter from which point of view, this person is a standard "wonderful person".

Strangers - in layman's terms, they are people who dress, behave, speak, and have strange temperaments, that is to say, the so-called "non-mainstream people".

The popularity of "Qingqi culture" began in the Warring States Period three hundred years ago.

At this time, in order to compete for national hegemony, the Oda family, the Takeda family, the Uesugi family, the Toyotomi family, the Tokugawa family and other princes all came to the stage.

The middle and lower-level samurai and ordinary people were tortured by endless wars and suffered terribly.

It is difficult to see the painful life in the future, which arouses the rebellious psychology of the people.

In order to relieve material suffering, people began to pursue spiritual happiness.

As a result, more and more people broke the rules, put on incomprehensible strange clothes, combed their hair in incomprehensible styles, put on incredible makeup, and performed performance art in public.

Kabuki, which is popular nowadays, is influenced by the "Qingqi culture" to a certain extent.

Tokugawa Ieyasu unified Japan and established the Edo shogunate. After the warring states ended, there were no major wars in Japan, and the common people could finally produce with peace of mind.

If you can live a stable and peaceful life, who would have the leisure to go outside the mainstream?

Therefore, after Japan entered the Edo period, the once-popular "Qingqi culture" stopped.

However, with the outbreak of the "Black Ship Incident", the authority and dominance of the Edo shogunate went from bad to worse. The careerists were eyeing them, the undercurrent was surging, and the people were terrified. "The barbarians from overseas are about to attack" and "the Western vassals are about to rebel."

"Waiting for unfounded rumors to become rampant.

At the same time, the foreign culture of eating steak and drinking wine was also introduced into Japan with the opening of the country, which had an impact on Japan's local culture.

Under such circumstances, "Qingqi culture" emerged again.

Since time traveling, Qingden has basically never left Edo, so he doesn't know much about areas outside Edo.

As far as he knew, on the streets of Edo, it was becoming more and more common to see people whose hairstyles, clothing, and behaviors were too early for today's humans.

"Is that you..."

Qingdeng muttered in a low voice at a volume that only he could hear clearly.

After the short-haired and colorful figure appeared, the younger members of the "Mad Dog Family" who had gathered around Qingdeng and others immediately lowered their eyebrows and looked respectful. Their reactions had silently informed Qingdeng that

Come on - this amazing person is "Mad Dog" Ugaki Goro!

"Who are you? Have we met?"

Ugaki Goro squinted his eyes and looked at Aomori.

"To be able to beat Wei Qi so badly...you are quite capable."

"Mr. Ugaki, I have admired your name for a long time."

Aoden straightened his back and bowed to Ugaki Goro without being humble or arrogant.

"I have something extremely important that I would like to discuss with you. Please..."

Before Qingdeng finished speaking, he was interrupted by a string of deep laughter.

"A very important thing? Hehe, hehe."

As if he heard some interesting joke, Ugaki Goro grinned and laughed "hum hum hum".

"What? Are you trying to sell me a new soap from Osaka? Or the latest Wufu from Kyoto?"

"We are not traveling merchants, we..."

Aoto's explanation had just begun when he was interrupted again by Goro Ugaki:

"Okay, okay!"

Ugaki Goro waved his hand impatiently.

"Whether you are traveling merchants or anyone else, I am not interested."
