"Please go this way"

"Hmm" Qiuchen nodded in response to the servant of the barnyard field, surveying the entire house as he walked

There is no imaginary vermilion gate, only a wooden door that is slightly larger than the average home; There were no patrolling households, but they saw two samurai wielding swords in the courtyard beside them.

It's not that luxurious, but the quietness doesn't seem to be worth it.

It seems that there is a big gap between the wealthy families of the island country and the wealthy families of the Celestial Empire

Qiu Chen followed the servant through the courtyard and walked to the main house in the middle of the entire mansion

When he came, Ah Qiu was taken by the servants to meet his parents, and Qiuchen was dressed as a samurai, so that the servants did not dare to slack off, and then a few more people came to take Qiuchen to the side room.

"This is it" A subordinate brought Qiuchen to a hut, "Please be calm, the head of the family is talking to the eldest lady, and you should be invited to meet in a while"

"No problem, I know" Qiuchen nodded, looking around the hut, there was a wooden four-corner table on the tatami mat, and there was a lot of white smoke in the small teapot on it, it seemed that it was just brewed tea, after all, although it was a small wealthy family, he didn't want to offend a samurai for no reason.

"Please rest first and retire" After seeing that Qiuchen had no problems, the servant retreated.

Then take a break

Seeing the servant go out, Qiu Chen put the sword on his back in the corner of the wall, as for why not go directly to the space, in this kind of place where there are ordinary people everywhere, it is better to follow the normal way.

After a cup of tea

Knock knock knock---

"Who? What's up? Qiuchen looked up

"Your Excellency Qiuchen, the head of the family is invited" Qiuchen opened the door, and another servant stood in front of the door, bowing his head and said

It's really fast, I haven't seen my daughter for more than a year, and I've talked for such a short time, I really don't know what to say. But Qiuchen is just an outsider now, and it's hard to say anything, so let's meet the patriarch of the barnyard family first

Qiuchen picked up the Ash Messenger and stood up

"Lead the way"

"Your Excellency is Qiu Chen?"

"It's down" Qiu Chen looked at the old man in front of him, about fifty years old, dressed in very serious black clothes, coupled with deliberately trimmed short white hair, it seemed to give people a very majestic feeling, the wrinkles on his face could show that this old man had experienced a lot, although he was only less than fifty years old in Qiu Chen's exploration

The head of the barnyard family, but Qiuchen has never known his name

"This time, the little girl can return safely, thanks to Your Excellency" The old man took a sip of tea and said to Qiuchen, "I learned about Your Excellency's deeds from the little girl, and I deeply admire it"

"Where, where" Qiuchen said, "a little thing, not worth mentioning"

Qiu Chen suddenly felt how wise his previous decision was, a perfect excuse.

"Your Excellency is humble, then let the barnyard family do the friendship of the landlord, let someone take you to visit, the old man is not physically inconvenient to accompany him, Your Excellency, please"

"Please," the servant on the side stepped forward

Qiuchen wanted to say something more, such as directly telling Ah Qiu about it, but since the other party said so, he had to give up.

Hey, it's the most troublesome thing to talk to this kind of scheming guy.

"What do you think?" After Qiuchen left, a person walked out from behind the screen

"My lord, I can't see his strength at all, since he is not a proud person, he either has no strength or is very strong," the person said

The head of the barnyard field family scoffed at the ghost town that Ah Qiu said, how could someone retreat surrounded by so many ghosts, even if Ah Qiu said that he was a sword saint, but the head of the family didn't think that a sword saint would come to such a remote place.

"My lord" came and said, "Do you want to test it?" ”

The head of the barnyard family pondered for a while, then nodded slowly, "Don't be too obvious, the other party's background is not clear, don't do it."

"Yes"

"Well, you are"

Half a day later, Qiu Chen looked at the door of the house at the door of several people dressed as samurai

"Reputation seekers! We're here to expose your disguise! The person standing at the front shouted with a meaty face, and several people behind him also cheered

"That is, we will never forgive for deceiving Miss Aqiu!"

How I cheated

"Either accept our challenge or get out of here!"

"That's right"

"That's right"

A look of excitement

At the same time, more and more servants and miscellaneous servants and other people began to gather around, and it is human nature to watch the excitement

Seeing this, those people also looked very proud, if he could defeat his opponent in front of so many people, then his reputation in the entire village would also increase, thinking of this, several people laughed even more obviously

"Okay, then I'll accept it, when will you come?" Qiu Chen squinted at these people, although he was modest, he had no intention of backing down from this kind of bullying

"Then here it is," he said, handing over a wooden knife

"Here? Okay"

"So start oops! You actually sneak attacked! ”

"Cut, you said it started" Qiuchen looked at the guy holding his head with an innocent face

"Let's go together and make this shameless guy pay!"

"Hmph, no matter how much a group of scum there is, it's still scum!"

Thirty seconds later

"How's it going? Well? Qiuchen played with the wooden knife in his hand, and looked at the few people in front of him who were knocked into pigs' heads, "Who do you want to get out?" ”

"You and I are all because of your sneak attack!" Several people hurriedly got up, but they still refused to admit defeat, "If it weren't for your sneak attack, we would have won!" The person in the lead looked at Qiuchen with anger on his face, as if Qiuchen had a lot of enmity with him, well, it seemed that it was indeed not small

"It's really, it's hard to be beaten like this"

"It's just, didn't you see that the young man solved them easily?"

"Really, I was embarrassed to brag about how good I was before."

The whispers of bystanders kept coming, and the faces of those people were red and white, maybe they had the talent to learn to change their faces?

"You, you," the leader pointed at Qiuchen with trembling fingers, "I'll kill you!" ”

With that, several people rushed up again with knives

"Hey, why don't you have a long memory" Qiuchen shook his head, looking very helpless

Ten seconds later

"Oops"*3

With three screams, three guys who had been beaten and turned into pigs were thrown out of the courtyard door

"It's really troublesome," Qiu Chen clapped his hands, "I'll leave the matter of cleaning up the garbage to you," Qiu Chen turned his head to look at the servants and miscellaneous servants who were watching the excitement

"Okay, okay" A few people responded, and hurriedly ran over to carry those people away

Qiuchen snorted softly, turned around and walked back to the room

Do you really think I don't know? The living cannot be hidden in front of me

Just after Qiuchen closed the door, several figures walked out of a corner and walked towards the back room of the barnyard field's house

In the main room of the back room---

"Really?" The head of the barnyard family looked at the person in front of him, although his face did not show it, but the trembling teacup in his hand still betrayed his mood

"That's right, my lord," the person who came to the ground half knelt on the ground, "The other party easily solved Zhuangshiro and them, and according to our inquiries in Izumo City, this person should be the Canyon Sword Saint." ”

The head of the barnyard field sat silently in his chair and did not make a sound

"My lord, I have to cut it off as soon as possible."

"Perhaps, this is an opportunity for the barnyard family, heh, a sword master"

"My lord, do you want to"

"That's right" The head of the barnyard field family nodded, "A sword saint may not be of much use in the face of a large army, but in the area of Nishizumo, a sword saint can completely defeat any of the thirty-eight wealthy clans, if as long as Ah Qiu can exchange him for joining the barnyard family, then the barnyard field family can completely convince them all"

"But, isn't Miss Aqiu already ready to get engaged to the Yamanaka family? Will this turn directly with the Yamanaka family? "The people who came were a little worried

"Hmph, how can a mountain family compare to a sword saint, not to mention that they just want to use the barnyard family, as for Ah Qiu's side," the old man muttered, "You go and tell her, let her prepare in advance, and!" The head of the house suddenly thought of something, "You must take care of her, you can't let her run anymore!" ”

"Yes"

Two days later, in the autumn dust room

"Hey, I'll ask you!" Ah Qiu sat on the tatami mat, pointed to Qiuchen and said, "What did you say to your father?" Why did my father marry me to you?! ”

"How do I know" Qiuchen looked innocent, "I'm also inexplicable, okay?"

"So, what do you think?" Ah Qiu breathed a sigh of relief

"Since they're willing to send it, then I'll do it."

"Don't say yes!" Before Qiuchen could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Ah Qiu, "If you agree, I will, I"

"How are you?"

"I'll run away, and I'll never collect any more information about youkai or anything like that!"

"Don't worry, I'll not agree," Qiu Chen smiled as if he was angry

"And what do you say?"

"I'll just say, Ah Qiu is too ugly, I don't like it"

"Kill you! Where am I ugly? Ah Qiu's small fist landed on Qiuchen, but Qiuchen felt as light as a small raindrop

"Okay, okay," Qiuchen put away his smile, "I'll arrange it for you."
