I Was a Swordsman in Ancient Japan

The latest website: This monk wears a wide bamboo hat, and his head is buried low, so Ogata cannot see the monk's face clearly.

It can only be seen from his body shape - this monk is not tall and has a thin body.

And according to the voice he heard just now, the monk should not be very old.

Although Ogata didn't know where this monk came from, and whether this monk was an enemy or a friend, under such circumstances, Ogata couldn't allow him to think too much.

"Machi! Hold on a little longer! Sit still!"

After yelling towards A-Machi behind him, Ogata raised his hands hooked on A-Machi's legs again, and then rushed in the direction of the monk.

Seeing Ogata running towards him, the monk yelled:

"Follow me!"

After leaving this sentence, the monk turned his head and led Ogata and A-Machi straight to the northwest.

The monk seemed to know the terrain well and led the way without hesitation.

Not long after, Xu conveniently saw a forest with denser trees appeared in front of him.

Looking at the dense forest in front of him that he had been looking for for a long time, Ogata narrowed his eyes slightly, and thought to himself:

——This guy... knows the terrain here, knows where there are dense forests...

"Follow up!"

The monk in front slowly increased his speed while talking to Ogata and the others.

The monk plunged into the woods without hesitation.

Those monsters also rushed into the woods with Ogata and the monk.

The monk led Ogata and the others through the woods in a strange route.

The monk didn't rush forward in a straight line, but took an extremely irregular route through the woods.

boom!

Ogata heard a loud noise behind him.

Xunsheng turned his head and looked behind him. Xu Jian saw a few monsters crashed into a big tree because they didn't turn in time.

According to the sound just now, it's not difficult to hear - those monsters hit hard.

If it were an ordinary person, if he hit the tree so hard, he would be disabled even if he didn't die.

But for those monsters, it only takes about 2 breaths to recover.

The loud noise just now was just the beginning.

Gradually, the sound of "bang bang bang" hitting the tree became more and more frequent behind Ogata.

—these monsters...

Ogata thought to himself while watching his rear.

——Are you not good at making sharp turns...

Because under the leadership of the monk, Ogata and the others followed an extremely irregular route through the woods.

Therefore, the monsters following them had to follow them through the woods on this extremely irregular route.

And none of these monsters seem to be very good at turning.

Every time Ogata and his party turned a corner, some monsters would crash into trees because they didn't turn in time.

Hitting the tree at such a fast speed, it is natural to be either dead or disabled.

Although these monsters can be resurrected infinitely, it still takes a little time to resurrect.

And this time is enough for Ogata and his party to run far away.

Gradually, more and more monsters fell behind.

The footsteps behind Ogata also gradually became rarer.

After following the monk through the woods for an unknown amount of time, Ogata finally—there was no sound of pursuing footsteps behind him.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Ogata, who slowly slowed down, looked behind him while panting heavily.

Seeing that there were no more monsters chasing after him, Ogata let out a sigh of relief:

"Have you finally got rid of them... How dangerous..."

Ogata's phrase "It's really dangerous" comes from the heart.

Ogata was carrying a total of 7 knives on his body at this time - 2 on his waist and 5 on his back.

There was also Ogata on his back, and the weight of Ogata's iron cannon, Wakizasa, and pile of kunai were also on Ogata's body.

In addition, there are various sundries on the two of them.

After running wildly for so long with so many loads on his back, Ogata's physical strength was about to bottom out.

It must be said that it is a blessing to be able to get rid of all those monsters before the physical strength is about to bottom out.

A-Machi on Ogata's back also showed a sense of relief now.

Because getting rid of those monsters meant she could finally free her overworked bladder.

"Although I don't know who you are." Ogata turned his head and thanked the monk who had also stopped, "But thank you for your help."

"You're welcome. It's just a little effort."

After all, the monk turned around slowly.

After the monk turned around, Ogata's pupils shrank slightly in surprise.

Because the monk's face is wearing a very scary ghost mask.

This evil ghost mask was so big that it covered the monk's entire face, only his eyes were exposed.

When I saw this monk for the first time just now, the monk was wearing a large bamboo hat and his head was bowed, so Ogata couldn't see the monk's face clearly.

When the monk led them to get rid of those monsters, Ogata couldn't see the monk's face even more because the monk rushed ahead to lead the way.

Only now did Ogata know that the monk had been wearing such a scary mask.

Ogata was only a little startled by the monk's mask, so his reaction was relatively flat.

But that's not the case with A-Machi on Ogata's back.

A-Ming seems to be "easy to scare physique".

After seeing the terrifying ghost mask on the monk's face, he cried out in fright.

"Ah-! Mmm..."

However - as soon as the exclamation was halfway out of A-Ming's mouth, A-Ming hurriedly raised his hands and covered his mouth tightly.

At the same time, the cheeks quickly became red and hot at a speed visible to the naked eye.

When Ogata was about to ask what happened to A-Machi, he suddenly felt his back start to heat up...

It seems... some hot water is slowly pouring on his back...

After realizing what happened, Ogata turned his stiff neck, and cast a look of astonishment, disbelief, and despair at A-Machi behind him...

At this time, A-Machi also buried her head deeply in Ogata's back, her hands tightly grasping the clothes on Ogata's back, not daring to look at Ogata.

Although he couldn't see A-Machi's face or expression now, Ogata could see that A-Machi's ears were turning red.

"I'm sorry... I really tried my best to endure until the last moment..."

Machi buried her face deeply in Ogata's back, and made an apology sound like a mosquito.

"……nothing."

Ogata didn't let out a long sigh of helplessness, nor did he reprimand A-Ming in any way.

Just smiling wryly, he continued to comfort A-Ming:

"Just a little thing."

After saying that, Ogata silently backed away from the monk with his back on his back for a few steps.

"Huh?" The monk Chao Ogata asked suspiciously, "This benefactor, why did you back away suddenly?"

"It's nothing." Ogata showed a not-so-good-looking smile at the monk, "Don't worry about us..."
