Help! I changed the gender of the male protagonist in the yandere game.

Chapter 23 Qimen Weapons
"That's right."

Baijie was not wearing a mask now, and he had no idea why Matsudaira Inomaro, a retainer of Yamei, would come here.

The accommodation area where the ninjas live is isolated from other areas of the mansion, and there are shikigami specifically responsible for guarding it to prevent anyone from trespassing or the ninjas from leaving the accommodation area at will.

"What do you want from me, Master Matsudaira?"

While thinking, he asked Matsudaira Inomaro what his purpose was.

"First of all, I would like to thank Lord Baijie."

The old man first bowed to him.

"As a warrior, I have served the Yuejia Luo clan of Beiao for many years. The previous head of the Yuejia Luo clan was my benefactor. I must thank Master Baijie for saving the young master in the Spider's Nest."

"No, I just did my job."

"Even if it's just a matter of class, saving people is a fact."

Matsudaira Inomaro smiled and said, "Because we were busy with work and the young master was injured, we were embarrassed to come and thank you, Master Baijie... However, I heard recently that Master Baijie made great contributions and was promoted to a Chunin of the Shinobi clan. It is truly a cause for celebration."

"You're welcome, Master Matsudaira."

Bai Jie quickly asked, "Excuse me, how is the lord of the Yuejialuo family doing these days?"

"He went to Kyoto. He'll be there for a while."

Elder Song Ping smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, but the young master is fine.

Before he left, he asked me to give you a gift. It's a small gift, not worth mentioning, but I hope you will accept it."

"Gift?"

Baijie was stunned for a moment.

Inomaru Matsudaira handed over something wrapped in a long strip of cloth.

"Master Baijie, why not open it and take a look."

Bai Jie reached out to take it and found that the gift was heavy. He casually flipped open the long strip of cloth and found that it contained a "pistol".

No, not a pistol.

Baijie was surprised to find that it was a folded spear.

"This is called the 'Seven-Section Spear'. It's exactly eight feet long, with seven sections. You can customize the length as you like, and its uses are endless."

Matsudaira Inomaro scratched his face.

"To be honest, I've always been interested in clever tricks and erotic arts since I was young, and I have a bit of a hobby for these things. This seven-section spear was made by a master craftsman when I was older, but as I got older, I no longer had the energy for it.

I heard that Master Baijie is also proficient in spearmanship, so I suddenly thought of giving this seven-section spear to Master Baijie. I hope you don't mind this gift being too shabby."

Having said this, he added, "Let me demonstrate," and took out the seven-section gun. Then, with a shake of his hand, the seven sections of the gun connected into one like a snake emerging from a hole.

"Is this... a weapon controlled by spiritual power, with self-adjustable length?"

Baijie twitched his eyebrows.

This can be said to be a kind of "strange weapon". It is not practical in actual combat, or has relatively few application scenarios.

However, in this world, through the characteristics of spiritual power, even weapons such as the Serpentine Sword and the Guillotine can be fully put into practical combat.

“No, this is already very precious.”

Bai Jie said in a deep voice: "Such a precious thing, I cannot accept such a thing."

"Please don't refuse, Master Baijie."

Elder Matsudaira quickly advised, "To be ungrateful when receiving a favor is to harbor resentment. This is not the family tradition of the Yuejia Luo clan. This gift is just a token of our appreciation. If Lord Baijie refuses it, it will be a disgrace to our Yuejia Luo clan."

"this?"

Baijie pondered for a while and had no choice but to take the gun handed to him by the other party.

"I understand. Thanks to Lord Ye Ming's kindness, I will boldly accept it."

"That's good."

Old Man Song Ping chuckled and said, "Maybe I'll have to bother you again in the future."

That's still too polite.

The other party's status is much higher than mine, so normally there would be no need to trouble me.

However, old man Matsudaira is a hidden fighting force among the protagonists. Even though he is old, he is still a swordsman-level unit. Baijie has no intention of offending him, so he can only accept him honestly.

"However, I will have to report this to the Shinobi Head later. Considering that this is a gift from the Tsukigara clan, it should be considered my personal property, right?"

……

Late at night.

Above the mountains and forests, seemingly filled with ink, was a night sky filled with a sense of emptiness, a velvety carpet dotted with countless stars, and the bright moonlight piercing the darkness.

Suddenly a lantern light appeared in the darkness.

Two figures, one in front and one behind, were walking on the mountain path.

"Master Kohagi, please go this way."

The young man who served as a page was Yata, the fourth son of the Saku family.

A handsome servant was leading the way.

"According to the information from the Guilty Eyes, the location we are looking for should be in the right direction."

He was holding a lantern in his hand.

The eldest princess of the Kurohimeyama family wore a toki-colored kosode, her long silver hair bound up with washi paper. In her right hand, she also held a sheathed long sword.

As we walked into the deep mountains, a bit of cold and dampness quietly came up.

"Through a 'memory search' of Kozaburo's brain tissue, although his brain was dead, the results of the search for his remaining spirit led to the discovery of a base of the 'Yafukukai' in Mutsu Province."

Yata explained to the eldest princess, to whom he was loyal. "Considering the dangers of the Hachifukukai's external methods and the inconvenience of the Genin's involvement, I took the initiative and mobilized the Saku family's private soldiers."

"is it?"

Xiao Hagi glanced at the servant boy.

"In addition, people from the faction that supports the princess have also taken the initiative to send personnel to help us carry out the operation."

Mita's tone was quite proud.

He didn't notice that Xiao Hagi's eyes were quite cold.

The eldest princess of the Kurohimeyama family was very unhappy. She had no idea where the other party got the courage to give orders on her behalf.

Of course, there is no need to get angry now.

She understood how much those people in her faction cared about this matter deep down in their hearts.

This group of people were eager to achieve success and wanted to make some achievements, hoping to curry favor with the imperial court so that they could legitimately ascend to the position of head of the family.

The reason why he was so impatient was that the current head of the Kurohimeyama family, his biological mother, gave birth to a baby boy seven years ago.

In fact, Xiao Hagi didn’t know how many “sisters” she had, because her mother might have had contact with many wild men outside, and there might be quite a few children besides Ge Hua.

However, at least on the surface, there are currently five people who are the next heirs to the Kurohime family: himself, Kuzuka, and his third and fourth sisters, Nadeshiko and Obana. They are twins.

Nadeshiko and Obana were both only ten years old, still young, and without the support of factions, so they could not participate in the competition for the succession.

Xiao Hagi does not regard the two twins as her competitors. She knows clearly that if she wants to become the head of the family, she only has two enemies, one is Gehua and the other is her biological mother.

After her mother gave birth to a baby boy seven years ago in a near-miraculous way, she showed an unusual doting attitude towards the boy named "Fujihakama".

In fact, that kind of doting style was totally unlike the style of a woman from Kurohimeyama. Even Kohagi herself didn't understand why the woman who had poisoned her father the most without blood or tears, just because she felt he was in the way, would be so doting on the baby boy she gave birth to.

Xiao Hao had naturally seen that child. Because he was overly spoiled, although he was seven years old, his mental age was not even that of four or five years old, and he would even clamor to his mother for feeding.

And his mother, the head of the Kurohimeyama clan, not only obeyed the boy in every way, but also had a very obvious intention of hoping that this child would inherit the Kurohimeyama clan.

Of course, this kind of thing is also difficult to accept for the people inside Kurohimeyama. This family is accustomed to having women as the head of the family, and the family tends to be dominated by the powerful female head. If a man is rashly replaced as the new head of the family, the situation will definitely change.

Xiao Hao naturally would not let this happen. She and Ge Hua were secretly fighting against their mother.

Originally, even with the support of the factions behind the two, this kind of thing would be difficult to accomplish. However, the youngest brother is a "boy". This identity alone is enough to make the conservative factions loyal to the head of the family hesitate about the question of "who will be the next head of the family".

"Although we have won over many people in order to strengthen our faction, we have also increased the number of incompetent people, which is also a troublesome matter."

While she was thinking about this question, she walked towards the path in the mountains. With the lonely light of the moon above their heads, the two of them reached a small shrine in the mountains.

The small shrine is located on the top of the mountain, with a man-made stone staircase winding upwards.

"It should be here..."

Holding a lantern, Yata walked up the stone steps and rushed into the torii gate at the main entrance of the shrine.

However, the moment he passed through the torii gate, he let out a mournful cry.

"…What happened?"

The small shrine in the mountains had become a miserable ruin. The rough wooden buildings seemed to have collapsed under strong winds, and the air was filled with the smell of rust and blood.

Xiao Hagi also stepped into the shrine in wooden clogs. There was a sea of ​​blood formed by several corpses lying on the ground.

She noticed that these people seemed to have been chopped into pieces by something, and some of their bodies were lying in their own internal organs and blood.

"The cross section is so smooth. What kind of weapon was used?"

At this moment, Yata rushed towards a corpse crying.

"Katsutaro-senpai, why are you like this?"

"enough."

Xiao Hao interrupted his crying.

"Yata, you came here before...what happened here then?"

"No, there weren't any problems before."

Mita wiped away his tears.

"Katsutaro-senpai has been guarding outside. However, half an hour ago, they spotted someone approaching the shrine. They said they had captured the person and sent a message asking me to bring the princess here as well."

"I see."

Xiao Hagi sighed: "It seems that this must be a trap."

"Trap?"

The corner of Mita's mouth twitched slightly, and he asked doubtfully: "Could it be that we fell into the other party's trap?"

"more or less."

Xiao Hagi asked calmly, "Yata, have you ever had contact with Katsutaro and the others?"

"W-what?"

Mita was stunned for a moment.

"never mind."

Xiao Hagi sighed softly and drew his sword from its sheath.

Sword flashes.

For a moment, her right hand left a swaying afterimage.

Before the boy could understand what was happening, his head flew out. No one could see how the knife cut off his neck.

　The names of the sisters and brother of the Kurohime family come from the "Seven Herbs of Autumn" from the Manyoshu. They are Hagi (Lespedeza), Kudzu, Nadeshiko (Pink Phalaenopsis), Obana, Hiyori, Fujihakama (Orchid), and Asagao (Morning Glory).

　　In addition, Hagi is not Di, these are actually two different plants.
