Chapter 47 Sakura Dryad
"Damnable humans, let my army of corpses tear your flesh and blood apart!"

The cherry tree demon roared loudly and shook the branches and leaves all over the sky. At the same time, all the surrounding cherry blossom trees swayed in response, and for a while, there were falling cherry petals everywhere.

If you ignore the ugly corpses and the blood and broken limbs on the ground, this can be considered a beautiful sight.

It's a pity that no one is in the mood to appreciate it right now.

Following the roar of the cherry tree demon, hundreds of ghouls moved towards the direction where Asai Nagamasa and others were.

The reason why it is said to be moving is because their moving speed is too low. Not only is it not comparable to the corpses killed by Asai Nagamasa before, it is even lower than the normal walking speed of ordinary people.

At this time, as long as a qualified warrior spends a little time, he can easily defeat a slow-moving corpse in a duel.

But they have an absolute upper hand in terms of numbers. Coupled with the unknown Sakura tree demon, this battle is very disadvantageous to Asai Nagamasa and the others.

Seeing this situation, Asai Nagamasa waved directly, and then jumped to the roof next to him. These corpses looked very clumsy, even walking was difficult, and it would definitely be more difficult to get on the roof.

And even if they really have the ability to climb, in such a small space, the number of ghouls that can come up at the same time must be very limited, which is still much safer than on flat ground.

Hime Samurai Axiu and Tokichiro couldn't help but suddenly realized when they saw this, and they climbed to the roof with him.

Not to mention Axiu's agility, Fujikichiro was also unexpectedly flexible, but his movements were a bit ridiculous, and his appearance made him look like a real monkey.

But Asai Nagamasa did not laugh because of this. He remained silent on the surface, but secretly made some judgments in his heart.

According to Abe Seimei, since ancient times, many of those who have left a great reputation in history are related to various extraordinary powers: monsters, onmyoji, guardian spirits, and even real ghosts and gods.

There are many folklores that sound absurd and uninhibited, but they are actually true things that happened.

Just now, Asai Nagamasa noticed a hint of hidden power from Tokichiro, a power unique to the guardian spirit.

Seeing the corpses approaching slowly, Axiu couldn't help but look at Asai Nagamasa. Although she couldn't speak, Asai Nagamasa already understood what she meant. She was asking if she wanted to continue fighting.

Tokichiro next to him also shouted anxiously: "Master Asai, otherwise we should leave first. The younger ones can try to ask Master Daosan to send troops to encircle and suppress them!"

Go to Saito Douzan for help?This is indeed a good choice.

Although Jusan Sakura Village is the territory of other high-ranking samurai, Dosan was once the daimyo of Mino after all. Although it is said that he has just retreated to the second line and given up his position to his son, if Tokichiro comes to visit, And if he is told what is happening here, he will most likely not just sit idly by.

But just like Asai Nagamasa when he first came to this world, if he was not the one who finally eliminated the Sakura Tree Demon, then how could he explore the secrets of the Sakura Tree Demon and the horse-headed ghost?
What's more, killing and dying are also ways for him to become stronger!

So Asai Nagamasa slowly shook his head.

"No, Tokichiro, if we leave here, how many innocent people will be killed before the army arrives?"

Fujiyoshiro was stunned and didn't know what to say for a moment.

He is just a businessman now. Although he doesn't want to see people being killed, it's not his fault. He simply can't control so many things.

So Tokichiro couldn't help but struggle for a while. Out of consideration for his own safety, of course he couldn't wait to leave here.But if you do this, you will completely offend the two powerful warriors in front of you. This is not what a qualified businessman should do.

He spent a lot of effort to find out about Axiu, and then took the risk to come to this village invaded by monsters. Could he just leave empty-handed in such a dejected manner?
However, Axiu's eyes lit up when she heard these words, and she nodded vigorously towards Asai Nagamasa: If there is a decisive battle here, then let her be the one!
Asai Nagamasa smiled and had a better understanding of Axiu's character.

Seeing the group of corpses approaching, he silently communicated with Biyiniao. After getting a certain answer, he couldn't help but look at the restless Tokichiro: "Tokichiro, how many spiritual stones do you have there?"

Tokichiro was stunned for a moment, and then he immediately reacted: "Spiritual stones? Do you mean the golden gems of my little one? I still have some on my body!"

Tokichiro reached for his backpack and groped for it, but he immediately gritted his teeth and handed over the entire package: "Master Asai, if we can really destroy the monsters entrenched here, I am willing to do my part!"

Asai Nagamasa opened the package and took a look. There were dozens of spirit stones of different sizes lying in it. Although the purity was very low, there were a lot of them after all, and they could do something.

Of course, in fact, the Biwing Bird in his body needs to do more, otherwise with his current mana, he would rashly absorb the energy contained in so many spiritual stones, let alone use any spells, without causing harm to himself. Not bad.

So he nodded to the other party quite readily: "Very good, Fujikiro, thank you for your generosity."

"I am Asai Nagamasa, the young master of the Asai family. I am currently traveling around the world. If you are willing to become a samurai, you can come to Kotani Castle to find me in a few months."

After he finished his travels, he would definitely grow greatly in terms of strength and knowledge, and if he returned to Xiaogu City, he would also need some help from his side.

Not counting those old and frail old men, not counting the members of the Asai family, the only young generals in the family who remain loyal to him and have certain abilities are Miyabe Tsurujun and Endo Naomisuki. This is far from enough for his future plans.

Although Tokichiro is still a little-known traveling businessman now, if he can really rely on him, he will definitely be a good helper.

As for his ambition hidden deep in his heart, which no one knows except himself, it actually doesn't mean anything.

After taking the lead and mastering a more powerful force, if he honestly works for himself, he will naturally not treat him badly, but if he has any unrealistic fantasies, he will definitely not treat him badly. Compassionate and merciful.

No, maybe the opponent who is not even a samurai at this time may not have such lofty ideals. Ambition has always been consistent with strength and status.

Even the "Owari fool" who was troubled by the civil strife at home might not have the ambition to annex the world now, right?

What he should consider most now is how to completely quell the many riots in Owari and even survive the attack of the enemy Imagawa family!
Fujiyoshiro was immediately overjoyed, and he immediately bowed to Asai Nagamasa: "Thank you very much, Mr. Asai!"

He was originally just the son of an ashigaru-gumi leader. His ancestors had been farmers for generations, and he was also a tenant farmer who did not have any self-cultivated land.

If he chooses to join the army and a samurai is willing to accept it, then as a farmer he will become the most basic ashigaru.

If he shows enough ability in front of the samurai masters and is lucky enough, he may, after spending several to ten years, have the position that his father once obtained - Ashigaru-gumi.

But becoming an ashigaru general may be his lifelong goal, because it is difficult for many real samurai to reach the position where they can command hundreds of ashigaru, let alone a farmer like him.

Becoming a samurai has always been his dream.

But now, his dream seems to be close at hand!
