A samurai who doesn't want to be a daimyo is not a good onmyoji

Chapter 101 Grand Theft
Just when Maeda Keiji felt a surge of pride in his heart, a hero cherishes a hero, and wanted to drink a few more bowls of wine, a voice above his head suddenly heard a voice that failed to hold back laughter.

"Pfft!"

The two people couldn't help but stand up in surprise at the same time. The location they were on was the only platform extending outwards in the hotel. If someone could hide above her head, it meant that she was standing on the roof.

But when they were only a few meters away, they didn't notice anything before, which was a bit unusual!

Unfortunately, when the two people wanted to see who the other person was, the other party had already jumped away quickly. His figure was unexpectedly flexible. Even if he stepped on the roof, he would be as smooth as walking on the ground, and his speed was equally fast. amazing.

In just one or two seconds, they could only see a pale yellow figure quickly go away, then jump to the ground, get into the crowd, and disappear in the blink of an eye.

Asai Nagamasa suddenly narrowed his eyes, is it her again?
Although I still can't see the face, the other party's clothes and swaying figure are still very recognizable. When I made the paper doll by myself last night, she was peeking out the window. It seems that this is really a target Myself.

At the same time, Maeda Keiji seemed to recognize the other person, because Asai Nagamasa obviously noticed that he relaxed.

"Keiji-kun, do you know her?"

"Aha, I don't know her, but I know she exists." Maeda Keiji carelessly rubbed his hair, messing it up.

"Because she often wanders around the city, especially likes to squat on the roof and eavesdrop on other people's conversations. However, she has never stolen or done any evil. She has even killed some evil thieves."

"How should I put it? She should be considered a thief, right? This is probably one of the reasons why His Highness Nobunaga has not wanted her."

"one?"

"That's right." Maeda Keiji nodded, "The other reason is probably because she never tried to spy on His Highness Nobunaga's mansion, and she also killed a wild samurai with evil intentions on behalf of Princess Aichi."

Asai Nagamasa nodded slowly: "So, she should be a smart person."

He likes smart people and capable people. It just so happens that this guy has both of these two points and is not loyal to Oda Nobunaga. This may be a good opportunity.

Speaking of which, the ninjas of the Asai family are too weak, and they have been beaten by the ninjas loyal to the Rokkaku family all year round.

After the previous battle with Hashihime, the reason why he tried to recruit Kato Danzo was because he intended to change the situation. However, Kato Danzo's attitude was very obvious. He just wanted to visit the Takeda family and the Uesugi family, so he The solicitation at that time ended in failure.

But now he has a new choice. Although he can tell just by looking at the back that the other party is young, this is not a problem for him. She has completely proven her ability, and is better than the group of ninjas in Xiaotani City. Much stronger.

Maeda Keiji also sighed after hearing this: "Yes, smart people in this world can always live a better life."

She was surrounded by Owari's boss, Oda Nobunaga. Even though her presence was actually a bit offensive to the majesty of the local lord, the other samurai all selectively ignored her presence.

"But Nagamasa-kun, if you want to recruit her, forget it, because no one has succeeded so far."

"Although she always wears this yellow dress when she appears, she can actually change her appearance, so until now no one even knows her name and origin. Everyone only knows that she is a woman, and she is not very old. big."

"Haha, it looks like this guy is really mysterious."

The more Maeda Keiji said this, the more interested Asai Nagamasa became. However, as the other party said, I am afraid that using ordinary methods will not have any effect. Then maybe we should do the opposite and let the other party take the initiative. Come to find yourself?
Anyway, judging from her current appearance, she must be very interested in him!

Maeda Keiji immediately saw what he meant: "Does Nagamasa-kun want to recruit her?"

Asai Nagamasa nodded without hesitation: "Yes, this is all for the prosperity of the Asai family. Our family needs more outstanding talents. It's a pity. If Keiji-kun you..."

He didn't finish his words, but he knew that the other party must have understood what he meant.

In fact, Maeda Keiji did understand, but he couldn't make any response because he was specifically told about this when his uncle called him over last night.He, Maeda Keiji, likes to be free, so he doesn't care if he doesn't work for the Oda family. This is his own choice, but if he turns to the Asai family at this time, it will be very bad for the Maeda family. The current governor of the Tian family will not ignore this kind of thing that is close to betrayal.

So he could only smile and reject Asai Nagamasa's temptation: "Thank you Nagamasa-kun for your kindness, but unfortunately my strength is not enough. I still need to improve my abilities more."

Asai Nagamasa, who failed in the test, was not dissatisfied at all, because he had already expected this result. Not to mention that he was just a young master with an empty title and no power at all. Even his nominal father, the Asai family If the daimyo comes here in person, he will definitely be rejected as well.

But he still sent out the invitation in a vague way, just to show his appreciation.

"Well, Keiji-kun and I hit it off instantly. It's such a shame that we can't fight together on the battlefield."

Then he smiled bitterly and shook his head: "But it is true that I was reckless, and the current Asai family is indeed not qualified to recruit a strong general like you, Keiji-kun."

What he said made Maeda Keiji feel very embarrassed, because he really thought so. Not to mention that he didn't want to become an official. Even if he really wanted to make a contribution, he would not choose Asai, who is famous for his stupidity and incompetence. Jiuzheng!
He scratched the back of his head in embarrassment: "Well, there is no need to be discouraged, Nagamasa-kun. With your ability, I believe that the Asai family will become even more prosperous."

"Haha, I hope so." Asai Nagamasa no longer dwelled on the matter and picked up the wine glass again. It didn't matter if the recruitment failed. As long as he didn't become an enemy for the time being, he would definitely have a chance in the future.

Thanks to the memory of the history of another world in his mind, even if there are many changes, he can still be regarded as someone who can foresee the future to a certain extent. Of course he has this confidence.

While he was drinking, the city suddenly became noisy again, and then dozens of fully armed warriors filed out from the Oda family, each leading a horse. Only a tall, fair-skinned, handsome man wearing strange armor, Sitting upright on horseback.

Different from the popular dòng, which is mainly made of bamboo and leather, this man's armor has two large pieces of smooth metal armor on the chest, and a cloak on the back, decorated with various bird feathers. Look. It looks gorgeous and eye-catching.

But what attracted Asai Nagamasa's attention the most was the other person's eyes. The dark eyes seemed to contain strong confidence and even arrogance, as if no one in the whole world could be seen by him.

Asai Nagamasa immediately knew the identity of the other party. In this place and with this appearance, besides the current "Owari fool" and the future "Sixth Heaven Demon King" Oda Nobunaga, who else could be there?

Really, I didn't expect to meet each other in this way.

Asai Nagamasa noticed that in addition to being well-equipped, many of these warriors also carried large red or black cloth bags on their backs, making them look a little hunchbacked, and they didn't know what they were for.

"Keiji-kun, these samurai don't look like ordinary samurai. Are they the horse warriors of His Highness Nobunaga?"

The horse warriors are the bodyguards. In addition to the duties of guarding generals, they usually also serve as heralds, verify and record military exploits, and even serve as envoys to negotiate with the enemy. Those who can be selected are undoubtedly generals. confidant.

"Ah, they are the Red Mother's Clothes and the Black Mother's Clothes among His Majesty Nobunaga's Horsemen. You can tell by looking at the Mother's Clothes behind them."

"Once the horses start galloping, their backs will swell into a big ball. Not only do they look extremely majestic, but they can also block stray arrows and hidden arrows."

"It is said that they are all real professional warriors with a salary of thirty guan. In addition to the maintenance of weapons and armor, as well as daily training expenses, these dozens of people need to spend more than [-] guan every year."

Having said that, Maeda Keiji actually doesn't really think how powerful they are. They do so many bells and whistles, but in fact, except for his uncle Maeda Toshiie, who is a member of the Akameki clan, none of them can beat them. .

"That's it. Although it doesn't look particularly beautiful, it must have a lot of effects."

Ni Peng's bamboo bow is inherently low in power, with an effective range of only a few dozen meters. With these mother's clothing as protection, bows and arrows that usually come from behind may not have much effect, and they may even be ineffective against muskets. Small reduction effect.

Maybe when I return to Xiaodani City, I can start building such a bodyguard, but it's not easy to choose the leader.
Either they are not strong enough, but most of those who are strong enough have a certain status and will not lower themselves to become their own bodyguards.

For example, for example, my martial arts teacher Endo Naotsune, there is absolutely no way he would agree to become his mother-in-law, right?
