Warring States Eagle

() In late May of Tianwen 12, it was already the last season of spring plowing.Two cherry blossom trees full of cherry blossoms stand in Quanxianyue City like a solitary fragrance.

Stepping on the fallen cherry blossoms, Haruma Arima came to the wooden house where Yoshitake Kikuchi was resting.At this time, two of Kikuchi Yoshitake's men in charge of guards stood outside the wooden house.Ten or so meters away, more than [-] other subordinates of Kikuchi Yoshitake also gathered together, seeming to be discussing something.When these people saw Arima Qingchun coming, they all got up and saluted.

After accepting the salute of these people calmly, Arima Harujun left several of his own samurai who followed outside the wooden house, and then pushed open the wooden door and walked in alone.

"Yoshitake, who is this?" The moment Arima Harujun entered the wooden house, he saw Kikuchi Yoshitake who should have been injured sitting on the tatami refreshed, and looked at him with piercing eyes. I couldn't help being taken aback.

"Master Arima, we have been waiting for you here for a long time." At this moment, a cold voice came from behind.Arima Harujun was about to turn around immediately, but a icy sword resting on the back of his head stopped him from moving.He instantly realized what had happened to him. . .

"Yoshitake, what are you doing?" Arima Harujun asked with bloodshot eyes, and then coughed involuntarily due to excitement.No way, people in their 60s look like this when they get excited.

It's just that the people behind Arima Qingchun don't respect the elderly at all. Just when Arima Qingchun was coughing excitedly, the sword on Arima Qingchun's body had already been removed.Even Arima Qingchun's hands were tied behind her back.Obviously, Arima Harujun has completely become a captive of others at this time.

"Why. Why exactly?" Arima Harujun, who was relieved, still couldn't believe why Kikuchi Yoshitake, who had always been favored by the Arima family, would do what he did now.

"For the fat queen." Kikuchi Yoshitake replied firmly.At this time, Kikuchi Yoshitake's expression was like the two cherry blossoms in the courtyard outside the wooden house.Looked arrogant and conceited.

"You...you..." Arima Harujun, who instantly understood Kikuchi Yoshitake's meaning, didn't know what else to say at this moment.Everything can only be blamed on his momentary carelessness.Under such circumstances, he did not take any precautions.Yes, how could a seriously injured person be in danger?And was dazzled by the victory for a while, leading to the final carelessness.

"Okay, if there is anything else you want to say, you can talk about it after you get on the boat." The person behind Arima Qingjun said coldly.This person was the number one ninja of the Luo family, Kato Duanzo, who had received Masara's order to assist Kikuchi Yoshitake.Kato Duanzo has done this kind of shady things behind his back many times.That's why Ma Qingchun was instantly subdued.

Kikuchi Yoshitake, who had been prepared for a long time, nodded, and then gently pushed open the wooden door and walked out first.

Outside the door, the retainers of the Arima family who followed Arima Qingchun saw a person suddenly walking out of the wooden house that the owner had just walked in. They quickly fixed their eyes and couldn't help but froze.Isn't this Kikuchi Yoshitake-sama?Didn't you say you were seriously injured?Why does it look like nothing happened now?

Just when the retainers of the Arima family were in a daze, the two subordinates of Kikuchi Yoshitake who were guarding in front of the wooden house instantly stood in front of Kikuchi Yoshitake, and at the same time, more than [-] Kikuchi Yoshitake's subordinates more than ten meters away also He rushed over quickly and protected Kikuchi Yoshitake and others in an instant.

"What are you doing?" The surrounding Arima soldiers were stunned.But some retainers have already realized that something is wrong.Why is the owner gone?

"Master Kikuchi, where is the Patriarch of the main family?" the leading retainer of the Arima family, Shimabara Junshige, immediately asked.After Shimabara Junshige's reminder, the rest of the retainers also immediately discovered this problem.

"Your Patriarch is here." At this time.The wooden door of the wooden house was pushed open, and Kato Danzo walked out with Arima Harujun whose hands were bound.

"Ah? Patriarch?", "What? Damn it.", "Quickly let Patriarch go."

Immediately, the surrounding Arima soldiers reacted with yelling and cursing.People who reacted quickly even began to slowly surround them.

"Hmph, I advise you not to move around, or your Patriarch's life will be lost." Kato Duanzang shouted loudly.Nearly forty Kikuchi Yoshitake's subordinates, disguised as Luo's family warriors, raised their weapons, as if they were going to die together.

And poor Arima Harujun seemed to want to say something, but her mouth was blocked by a handful of thatch, and she couldn't speak for a while.

"What do you guys want to do?" the mature and prudent Shimabara Junshige asked immediately.

"Don't worry, we won't hurt the Patriarch of your family, we just invite him back to our place as a guest, and then as long as you pay enough money, we will let him go." Kato Duanzang said.This is what Zheng Liang explained in his letter that he should say.At this moment, the Arima family should not be allowed to know that it was the Luo family who kidnapped Arima Harujun, otherwise the Arima family's soldiers might become united with the enemy. In this way, the ultimate effect of Masaragi's secret move would be Most likely not anymore.

The officers and men of the Arima family saw that the Patriarch was being controlled, and they were really very angry. Some people directly scolded Kikuchi Yoshitake.But they didn't dare to act rashly, so as not to force the thieves to hurt the Patriarch.

"Let's go!" Seeing the scruples around him, Danzo Kato immediately pushed Arima Harujun and started to walk forward.The surrounding Luo family warriors who were in charge of guarding also surrounded the three of Kato Duanzang and started heading towards the city gate.

"Stop them!" Shimabara Junshige immediately ordered.

"Master Arima, I've offended you, hiss!" Seeing the soldiers of the Arima family gradually surrounding them and blocking the way out of the city, Kato Danzo decisively tore off the clothes on one shoulder of Arima Harujun, revealing the Ma Qingchun has fair skin.

"Damn. You're so old, but your skin is still so good?" Kato Danzou said inwardly, and then directly slashed Arima Harujun's shoulder with the shoji in his hand.Immediately, a striking bloodstain appeared on Arima Harujun's shoulder.

"Did you see? If there are any more blockers, I will mercilessly cut off your family governor's body." Kato Duanzang raised the blood-stained co-chaser and shouted loudly.

All the soldiers of the Arima family around did not dare to move.

"Let's go!" Under Kato Danzo's order, the crowd escorted Arima Harujun, who seemed quite calm all the way, out of the walled city.

In this way, along the way, under the pursuit of a large number of Arima family soldiers, everyone came to the pier by the sea.

Danzo Kato looked up at the blue Ariake Sea.It has rained this morning, and looking out from the pier, I can see the sea is filled with smoke.In this pervasive mist, several Xiaozao quickly pierced through the mist, and then came towards the pier.

"Here we come." After seeing the boat appear, Kikuchi Yoshitake beside him finally let out a sigh of relief.According to the agreement with Masara, as long as Arima Qingjun is sent to this ship, then the future affairs of the Arima family will no longer have anything to do with him.

More importantly, he will be separated from these retainers of the Luo family who have been with him all the time, and he will no longer be under their surveillance.From then on, he could use the money and food provided by the Luo family to freely develop his power in Feihou.Seeing that the dragon was about to swim in the sea, Kikuchi Yoshitake couldn't help but shouted in his heart: After the fat, I, Kikuchi Yoshitake, are back again.

"Hurry up and get on the boat!" At this moment, those Xiaozao had already arrived at the shore, and a young boy in the lead shouted.This person is the Murakami Takeshi who came to the Third Standing Navy Division and became Junmetsu.

In the past few days, they have been wandering secretly in the Ariake Sea almost every day, in order to wait for Kato Duanzo and others to meet.Of course, at this time they are all dressed as pirates.

"Father?" Just as Arima Qingchun was escorted to the boat, there was an exclamation from the shore.

Arima Harujun turned her head and saw that it was Arima Yoshinaka who was in charge of leading troops to chase down the Xixiang family's defeated soldiers outside the city.Originally, he planned to take the opportunity to let Arima Yizhen take on such a cheap job, so that Arima Yizhen could establish prestige in the eyes of his retainers as soon as possible, so that he could stand alone.He really didn't expect that the time for Arima Yizhen to take on such a responsibility was so hasty. After he left, the burden of the Arima family would fall on him.Arima Harujun, who had remained calm even after being stabbed in the shoulder, couldn't help becoming agitated at this moment.

"Okay, as long as you are ready for the [-] gold sentence, we will naturally return it to your family governor, let's go, hahaha." Kato Duanzang laughed and shouted.

But, does the Luo family need only a [-] gold sentence? (to be continued...)
