2 hours later——
What Kinoshita Mai said was absolutely correct. Boss Kiryu returned on time just as the hour hand of the clock crossed "10".
Edo, Senshiya, Garden——
The master and apprentice sat side by side on the verandah, facing the courtyard in front.
"Mr. Kiryu, Aomori, please have some tea."
Kinoshita Mai held a tea tray containing 2 cups of hot tea and a plate of wagashi, and walked behind the two of them with small steps.
At first glance, the girl in red looks and behaves the same as before, nothing out of the ordinary.
But if you observe carefully, you can find that when she walks, her two little feet tremble slightly, the muscles in her legs and feet seem to be full of fatigue, and her voice is a little weird.
Although this is only the beginning of time, a certain old man has extraordinary senses.
"Young Master, what's going on with your legs, feet and voice? Why are you trembling? Why are you mute?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the body of the young man sitting next to him stiffened suddenly, and the hand holding the tea cup stopped in mid-air.
Kinoshita Mai was stunned for a moment, then her eyes wandered wildly, panicked, and her words were incoherent:
"Ah, ah...! This, this, this, no, nothing! It's just that my mouth is sore and my legs and feet are tired... Ooohhhhhh!"
She came to her senses and yelled, trying to cover up her embarrassment and mistake with a loud voice.
Unfortunately... it's too late, the most critical information has already been heard by Boss Kiryu.
This can be considered an old problem of hers.
Because she is introverted and not good at communication, once she gets distracted, she will say everything she should and shouldn't say at once.
"..."
Boss Kiryu lowered his eyelids and cast a straight, deep look at Mai Kinoshita.
Kinoshita Mai, who didn't dare to look at her, buried her head low, her pretty face flushed, she clutched the tea tray tightly with both hands and hugged it to her chest, as if she wanted to hide behind the tea tray in exchange for
sense of security.
Suddenly, the old man pointed at the girl's red lips.
"...Oh, Master, there seems to be a strange stain on the corner of your mouth."
"Huh? How is that possible? I've obviously already washed it!"
As she spoke, Kinoshita Mai raised her hand to wipe her mouth, and then took a closer look - there was nothing on her hand.
Beep, beep, beep...
Suddenly there was a strange noise.
This was the sound of Qing Teng's hand holding the tea cup twitching slightly, causing the tea in the cup to splash out and fall to the ground.
The innocent girl who was deceived... Her face, which was already as red as fire, became increasingly hot, and even the tips of her ears and neck were dyed with a gorgeous red glow.
"Hmm...! Ah! I-I'm going to prepare lunch! Excuse me for now!"
After that, Kinoshita Mai hugged the tea tray and ran away in a hurry, ruthlessly "abandoning" Qingteng.
Kiryu: "..."
Qingdeng: "..."
As the crisp footsteps of Kinoshita Mai gradually faded away, the courtyard and outside were surrounded by a heavy silence, and there was silence.
Boss Kiryu turned his head, expressionless and silent, and looked straight at Qingden.
Under the refraction of light from the spectacle lenses, the old man's eyes became blurry and difficult to distinguish and elusive.
"Oh, Boss Kiryu, look at it!"
Qingden looked down at the tea cup in his hand and said in a cheerful voice:
"The tea stems are standing up. It seems like something good will happen today!"
This is a Japanese feudal superstition: when drinking tea, if the tea stems stand up in the tea, it means something good will happen today.
"I don't know if something good will happen today. Anyway, I have received an unexpected 'surprise gift' today."
"I was just wondering why you came so early today. So that's why..."
"Your actions are too quick and precise, aren't they?"
"In a few days, the young master will follow you to Luo, so I want to take advantage of these last few days to cook more meals that the young master likes to eat."
"I went out very early today just to buy the freshest vegetables from the Eight Hundred Houses so that I can make a sumptuous meal for the table."
"In the end, you took advantage of the short gap when I was not in the store and scurried in smoothly."
"Your ability to find opportunities to find opportunities is really quite extraordinary."
[Note·Zhuofu Cuisine: Japanese-style Chinese banquet dishes. Eight Hundred Houses: All vegetable stalls are collectively referred to as "Eight Hundred Houses"]
Qingdeng listened quietly to the end... He closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
When he opened his eyes, he changed into a sonorous and powerful tone:
"Boss Kiryu, draw your sword! I'm ready to fight! Come over here!"
As he spoke, he reached out and grabbed Vairocana beside his leg.
"Who said I'm going to fight you?"
Boss Kiryu gave Qingto an angry look, and then said "Alas", all kinds of emotions were turned into a voice.
"Ji Jun, you and the young master can take it easy."
"I will take this opportunity today to explain it clearly to you."
"I treat the young master as if I were my own son, and you are my personal disciple."
"Of course I am happy to see your union."
"Even if you want to marry three wives...as long as the young master doesn't object, and you can really make the young master happy, then I won't object."
"but!"
Boss Kiryu suddenly raised his voice and changed the subject.
"What I say does not count."
"At the end of the day, I'm just the guard beside the young master, serving as an intermediate and acquaintance."
[Note: Yuzhushou: the duty of holding and taking care of children. Middle: servant of the martial arts family. Jinxi: personal attendant]
"As for the future of the young master, I only have the right to make suggestions, but I do not have the right to make a final decision."
"The final person to make the print... is only my lord, the young lord's grandma."
"I have served my lord for more than 70 years, and I know his temperament very well."
"She hates men who are not affectionate."
"She once declared in public: The young master's future husband will never take concubines or have side wives."
"If I tell her that the man who is in love with the young master, apart from the young master, is also unclear with two other girls, to be honest... I can't imagine what the master will do after learning about this.
, how will it react?"
"First of all, rage is a given."
"For the time being, let's put aside all the matters at hand and gather all the people to come and settle accounts with you. That's for sure."
When Qingdeng heard this, he couldn't help but said seriously:
"Boss Kiryu, I'm not being unprofessional!"
"Although at first glance, my behavior of wanting to marry three wives seems outrageous and out of place, what I did is obviously different from the term "playing with women"!"
"If I want to use a metaphor...those who are truly unprofessional, evenly distribute the water of a river to others, and distribute it very unevenly! And I have opened up three river sources! Please
Understand the difference!”
After hearing this, Boss Kiryu snorted "Humph".
"Ji Jun, I'm afraid you can't even fool the young master with these nonsense, right?"
"..."
Qingdeng's mouth twitched slightly and he responded silently.
"Anyway, in order to protect you... ah, no, I should say to save you, I concealed your ambition of 'marrying three wives'."
Having said this, Kiryu sighed again.
"Until now, my lord still thinks that you and my young master are just ordinary lovers."
"My lord is quite satisfied with you. She appreciates your extraordinary martial prowess and your boldness and boldness in making big and small actions."
"If it weren't for Pepsi, she would have wanted to see you."
"A while ago, she even sent me a letter specifically asking me: 'How is Ju Qingden doing?', 'How are Ju Qingden and Ah Wu getting along?'..."
"Ah, what a mess."
Having said this, Boss Kiryu took off his glasses from the bridge of his nose, took out a clean silk scarf from his pocket, and wiped the lenses carefully.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Qingdeng bent down and bowed respectfully to the old man in front of him.
"Boss Kiryu...thank you."
His thank you was absolutely sincere and not half false.
Boss Kiryu is really his good master!
Not only did he teach him swordsmanship, but he also acted as his "wingman" and helped him open a harem!
Boss Kiryu's cover has greatly reduced the obstacles he currently faces.
Otherwise, the furious Kinoshita Mai's grandmother led the Calabash House army to come to Edo to settle accounts with him...it is unknown what will happen.
With a master like this, what else can I ask for?
"My abilities are limited after all."
Boss Kiryu hung the cleaned glasses back on the bridge of his nose.
"At this stage, I can still help you hide a few things."
"But if the young master is pregnant...then there's nothing I can do to help."
"I dare to conclude that the lord will never allow his precious granddaughter to become pregnant before marriage! Even if the other party is a hero that he admires very much!"
"She will definitely make the bastard who made the young master pregnant understand how miserable it will be if he can't control his own desires."
Qingden said:
"Boss Kiryu, please rest assured about this! A Wu and I have not yet performed the courtesy of Duke Zhou!"
He played a word game.
It is true that he and Kinoshita Mai have not yet performed the rites of Duke Zhou... But in other words, they have basically done everything except the rites of Duke Zhou.
"I won't ask too much about you young people. In short, you two should pay more attention and don't cause me any more trouble."
At this time, Boss Kiryu paused.
After a moment, he curved the corners of his mouth and put on a serious tone:
"Ji Jun, hurry up and become stronger."
"So powerful that you no longer need me to help you hide things."
"At least it must be strong enough to not be afraid of the lord's power."
"I don't want to see my respected lord hunting down my beloved apprentice one day in the future."
Qingdeng put on a solemn expression and firm eyes, and nodded vigorously:
"I will! I will make the new group become the strongest armed group in Gyeonggi...no! Japan within one year!"
Boss Kiryu nodded:
"Yes, I just need this momentum!"
"Okay, let's stop talking about the trivial matters of children's love."
"Now, it's time to talk about the topic."
"Mr. Ju, you must have heard from the young master, right? I called you here today because I want to entrust you with something very important."
Seeing the topic approaching, Qing Deng couldn't help but straighten his back and straighten his body.
Since yesterday, he has been guessing what the "important thing" the other party wants to entrust will be.
Not long ago, Boss Kiryu gave him a precious gift - a revolver mandala.
Qingdeng put on a solemn posture of listening attentively.
Boss Kiryu leisurely folded his hands into his feather sleeves and looked into the distance.
"Although this should have been taught to you early in the morning, it is not too late to teach it to you now."
"Tangerine-kun, do you still remember? I have said before: My sword-drawing technique... Liuguang has a secret!"
At this moment, Qingden's pupils shrank slightly - even though Boss Kiryu hadn't finished speaking yet, he had already realized something.
"After Vairocana and the Breath of the Source, it is time for me to give this last thing I have to you."
“There is nothing profound about it, and it doesn’t even need to be written down on the page. The essence of it can be explained just by speaking it.”
Boss Kiryu took out his hands from his sleeves, and at the same time, his expression became extremely solemn.
"Tachibana-kun, do you know what the 'strongest sword-drawing technique' is?"
Qingdeng blinked, and after thinking for a while, he replied:
"The sword-drawing technique that has no way to dodge or defend is the strongest."
"So, how can we achieve the state of 'no way to dodge, no way to defend'?"
This time the reply came very quickly, almost without thinking:
"Day after day, continue to exercise without slacking off, pushing your physical fitness and martial arts skills to the limit."
Boss Kiryu nodded.
"That's a good point. However, the enemy will not wait for more than ten years until you have trained your body and skills to the ultimate limit before coming to trouble you."
"The power of muscles is limited. No matter how hard you exert yourself or how hard you push yourself, there is only so much power you can generate."
"Therefore, if you want to explode with stronger power, you need to use external force...that is, the power of running."
"Charge towards the enemy with the force of a pig, squeezing out all the strength in your body with every step you take."
"When you take the last step, take advantage of the opportunity of pushing off the ground to transmit the power of your legs up, and then concentrate it on the arm holding the knife."
"On this basis, make good use of the force brought by the sword's own weight when it is unsheathed - the combination of the two forces will burst out the energy accumulated in the blade in one breath, killing the enemy in an instant!"
"Under the current circumstances, with the help of bold techniques, the strength of the limbs and the cutting speed of the blade exceed the limits that one can usually achieve, and a slash full of explosive power is achieved!"
"This is Liuguang, and it is also the secret of my self-created sect Feiyan Zanshin-ryu, the super-speed sword-drawing technique - 'Setsuna'!"
As if hearing the sonorous and powerful ringing of a bell, Qingdeng showed a dazed expression, as if chewing every word, and repeated softly:
"'moment'……"
Boss Kiryu’s words continued:
"At first glance, this trick doesn't seem to be anything special. It just relies on the potential energy of running."
"But in fact, even if it were me, it took me several years to completely perfect and master this secret."
"The prerequisite for starting the moment is that there must be enough distance between the opponent and the opponent to facilitate the run-up."
"The ability to control one's own limbs and the distance between the enemy and ourselves must also be extremely precise, so that we can execute the most powerful sword at the most appropriate time and at the most appropriate distance!"
"Charging too much, charging too hard so that the body is unbalanced, and not getting into a good attack position will lead to irreparable serious consequences."
"The most important thing is that you must have a firm belief that you are not afraid of death."
"Because we are sprinting at full speed, there is no room for maneuver."
"Either kill the enemy, or be killed by the enemy."
"If you have the slightest thought of being greedy for life and afraid of death, you will never be able to do it for a moment."
Qingdeng listened carefully and nodded thoughtfully, as if thinking.
At this moment, Boss Kiryu suddenly changed the subject:
"Ju-kun, you don't have to listen so seriously. All of the above are all early moments."
"...Huh? Early days?"
The "thinking" on Qingdeng's face turned into "dumbfounded".

Please give me a monthly ticket! Please give me a recommendation vote! (Leopard Head Cries)
In order to collect creative inspiration, Leopard Leopard studied the secret of Feiten Yujian style yesterday: Tianxiang Dragon Flash. I thought the original tricks I created in this book were exaggerated enough, but I didn’t expect that the seniors had more imagination than me.
Exaggeration (leopard laugh)
Make the first slash, release a stream of air, create a vacuum in front and suck the opponent in... What the hell is this? Isn't this already in the realm of fantasy?
