"What's wrong? What's wrong? What happened?"

"Be careful! There is a master in the room!"

"Where is Onodera? Is Onodera inside?!"

…

The woods that were originally peaceful suddenly became extremely noisy.

The sound of footsteps kicking on grass blades, the sound of shouting at the top of one's throat, the sound of a knife being unsheathed... all kinds of sounds blended together, one after another, hovering over the woods for a long time.

The first five enemies who entered the house were all killed by Qingdeng's sword.

The unexpected heavy casualties shocked this group of "uninvited guests".

They were confused for a moment and exited the thatched hut one after another, not daring to come any closer.

Taking advantage of this moment, Qingdeng shook his right wrist lightly, shook off the blood on the knife, and ran to the door of the house in three steps and two steps at a time. He pressed his body against the wall and poked his head out of the door frame to peek at the situation outside the house.

"There are many guests coming..."

Among the shades of trees, figures swayed.

Unidentified mysterious people with weapons in hand broke into Qingdeng's vision one after another.

In the blink of an eye, a huge surrounding net descended outside the thatched house.

At this time, Zuo Nazi, Souji and Onodera also quickly came to the door of the house, imitating Aoshino's example, leaning against the wall, sticking their heads out, and looking outside the house.

"Oops! They're coming after us!"

Shock, anger... and worries appeared on Onodera's expression.

Qingdeng, who did not dare to look away from the house, asked without looking back:

"Who do you mean by 'they'?"

"The Black Mother Clothes of the Qingshui Clan!"

"...That's really a rare visitor here to help."

During the Warring States Period in Japan, it was common to see a kind of strange-looking knight: they always carried a big baggage, and most of the big baggage was very brightly colored.

This big baggage is called "Mother's Clothing". The production process is relatively simple, using a bamboo frame to stretch the cloth into a big ball.

The original meaning of mother's clothing is the placenta when a woman is pregnant.

Because it can effectively protect against stone attacks from the rear and sides, a warrior wearing this armor feels as safe as staying in his mother's womb, hence the name "mother's clothing".

In fact, in addition to preventing water loss, mother's clothing also has an important function, which is to build momentum.

As we all know, Japanese people are generally short in stature, and mother's clothing can make the wearer visually look taller and more powerful.

From the appearance point of view, the shape of the mother's clothes is simply ugly.

However, for samurai, mother's clothing is a symbol of glory.

Those who are qualified to wear mother's clothing are warriors with high status and strong combat effectiveness. They are equivalent to the general's direct bodyguards. They are mainly responsible for important tasks such as raising flags, delivering orders, reconnaissance, and general attacks.

The Qingshui clan is a Yakuza organization.

Since it is a Yakuza organization, it is naturally not lacking in violence and evil.

Assassinations, conflagrations, conquests...these are the daily routine of the Yakuza organization.

Therefore, in order to maintain their status, the Qingshui clan selected and raised a group of skilled warriors to form a combat force dedicated to eradicating, destroying, and killing people. Their name was... the "Black Mother Clothes"!

Although they were dubbed "Black Mother's Clothes," members of the team did not wear black women's clothing.

The reason for this name is to declare to the world that this force is an elite fighting force under the Qingshui clan!

"They are the Black Mother Clothes of the Qingshui Clan..."

The Souji murmured while involuntarily showing a look of disdain.

As a unit that specializes in handling "dirty work", although the Black Maidens cannot be said to be infamous, they can still be said to be notorious.

Killing people all over the house, raping women, and torturing corpses... What the Black Mother Clothes did was extremely cruel! Incomparably bloody!

No human being with a normal mind would have a favorable impression of such a "murderous group" that is full of evil.

"Mr. Onodera, if I heard correctly... the black women's clothes outside the house seem to be here for you."

"Um...yes...you heard it right."

"... Darling, you are actually being chased by so many people. You really have a lot of cards on your hands."

Although Qingdeng's lips were smiling, there was no smile in his eyes.

This is normal.

No one would be in the mood to laugh after seeing such a scene - no more human figures were "vomiting" out from the depths of the trees. But on the contrary, densely packed warriors stood around the thatched house.

Their encirclement of Qingdeng and others was not like a chaotic bunch. Instead, they formed a well-organized and tight formation, with the distance between them perfectly controlled.

This alone is enough to show how extraordinary the Black Mother Clothes are.

Qingdeng, the general secretary and Zuo Nazi, all of them were holding their faces and holding their breaths at this time, and they were talking seriously.

The tense confrontation filled with murderous intent, the tense and solemn atmosphere... Every scene and every scene here and now all point to the same fact: a tragic life-and-death battle is about to break out!

After a short rest, the Black Mother Clothes, who had been beaten to pieces by Qing Teng's "blow in the head", had regained their strength.

A strong man with big shoulders and round waist stepped forward and shouted loudly:

"Onodera! Surrender obediently!"

"Because you have made great contributions to the Qingshui clan and shed blood, as long as you are willing to surrender obediently, I can keep your body intact!"

After finishing his words, the strong man showed a smug expression on his face, "How is it? I'm sincere, right?"

However, his "sincerity" did not lead to pitiful begging for surrender.

"snort!"

Onodera snorted heavily, and then said word by word without thinking:

"Now that things have happened, I, Onodera Sakura, only know that I have the glory of death but no shame of life!"

Before Onodera said nothing, the strong man looked quite calm and dignified.

And now, his big, fleshy face was distorted comically.

"Okay! I have the guts!"

The strong man shouted loudly like boiling water suddenly overflowing.

"Onodera! Just wait for me! I will send you to hell right now!"

"Although you have hired experts to help you, this small change will not harm the overall situation at all!"

"Come on! Whoever cuts off the head of Onodera will be rewarded with 50 taels of gold! Whoever cuts off the heads of Onodera's companions will also be rewarded with 50 taels of gold!"

50 taels of gold... This is a huge amount of money that can drive a poor man crazy!

There is a saying: Under a heavy reward, there must be a brave man.

Huge amounts of wealth can cause humans to lose their ability to judge calmly and become beasts that follow their desires.

As of just now, many of the women in black at the scene were still timid and apprehensive after seeing Qingdeng's powerful skills.

But now, their eyes have changed.

If everyone goes together, they might be able to fish in troubled waters and kill their opponents in the chaos - this kind of wishful thinking spreads in their minds like a whirlwind.

"superior!"

The strong man raised his big hand and waved it down with all his strength.

"Kill everyone in the house!"

As soon as the strong man's words came out, the black women immediately howled like wild beasts.

"Kill ah ah ah!"

"I'm going to decide Onodera's head!"

"Get away! Don't fight with me!"

Facing the swarming enemies, Qingdeng remained unwavering.

Onodera is an associate of Tachibana Takayuki.

Tachibana Takayuki has passed away long ago.

On the other hand, Onodera has lived until now.

Although he is not sure yet, Aomori has roughly guessed why Onodera was hunted down by the Black Mother Clothes until today.

Qingden still has many questions for Onodera.

Therefore, even if there are thousands of troops in front of him, he will never give in even half a step!

Onodera's life was guaranteed by him!
