The moonlight is like washing, shining on the earth, giving it a silvery white color. Under the moonlight, the entire Kamisato house seems to be coated with a hazy silver gauze, looking dreamlike and beautiful.
In a room in Kamisato Yashiki, two handsome young men sat across from each other. The candlelight shone on their faces, reflecting the different expressions on their faces.
One of them, a handsome man wearing a purple kimono with a five-petal chinensis tree flower pattern embroidered on his sleeves, had a gloomy face, as if he was deeply worried.
Break the void.
The young man on the other side was wearing a white robe with fluttering skirts. He was as handsome as an immortal, but his eyes seemed to be a little dodgeful, and he did not dare to look into the eyes of the handsome young man in purple.
The two young men were Kamisato Ayato and Yunmo who met at the gate of Sakura-yuan. They sat together without saying a word.
There was a tea set in front of the two of them, and a rich fragrance wafted from the green smoke rising from the tea set.
There are pictures of mountains, rivers, sun, moon and stars hung on the surrounding walls, which look quite like a Jiangnan water town.
There are three swords placed in the center of the room. The handles of the swords are carved with exquisite patterns. There is a cold light on the blades, which looks extremely sharp. There is a cold glow under the light. They are not ordinary swords.
It is the sword of several generations of Kami-ryu lords.
Although Yun Mo did not dare to look directly into Kamisato Ayato's eyes, he still scanned the area for a week and knew that this place was unusual. This was the main hall of the Kamisato family. Usually, except for the brothers and sisters Kamisato Ayato and Kamisato Ayaka,
No one else is allowed in without permission.
But Yun Mo was invited here today. He knew what he was about to face, and he inevitably became a little nervous. The air was a little scary and quiet, as if even breathing had become difficult.
Kamisato Ayato, who had been silent for a long time, seemed to have figured out something at this time. He looked at Yun Mo, with a hint of stiffness on his face. He pushed the tea cup towards Yun Mo and said slowly: "Please drink tea."
Yun Mo smiled helplessly in his heart. They were indeed brothers and sisters. No matter how urgent the matter was, their etiquette would never be lost.
"Thank you." Yun Mo picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, then put down the teacup, looked at Kamisato Ayato, and waited for his question.
Yun Mo has already guessed what Kamisato Ayato wants to say. He should know about the matter between himself and Kamisato Ayaka. Although he asked Yu Yuchiyo to keep this matter secret, Kamisato Ayato is so smart. Yun Mo
Since both Mo and Kamisato Ayaka were absent, he had already guessed what happened.
"Can we talk?" Kamisato Ayato looked at Yunmo closely and asked.
Yun Mo nodded, and his expression became serious. He knew that he could not dodge tonight, and escaping would never solve any problems. The so-called escaping would only make the problem more serious, so Yun Mo raised his head to face God.
Satyato's gaze.
Ayato Kamisato glanced at Yunmo with a slightly complicated look, then withdrew his gaze, picked up the teacup, and began to sip lightly. His movements were elegant yet noble, and it was obvious that he was extremely well-educated.
, the behavior is also very elegant.
Yun Mo looked at Kamisato Ayato's elegant movements and was secretly amazed.
"You and Ayaka did something like that?" Kamisato Ayato pondered for a moment and said.
"Yes." Yun Mo nodded and did not deny it.
Hearing Yunmo's admission, Kamisato Ayato sighed, raised his forehead and said, "How can you be so ridiculous? Ayaka is not married yet."
Kamisato Ayato's tone was full of blame and anger. For a nobleman like him who abides by etiquette, it would be difficult for him to accept Yunmo's behavior.
"I will take responsibility!" Yun Mo looked at Kamisato Ayaka and said firmly. His eyes when he said this were firm and sincere, and there was no hint of falsehood.
Hearing this, Kamisato Ayato frowned slightly. He looked at Yun Mo with a hint of prudence in his eyes, as if he wanted to find some clues from Yun Mo's eyes, but there was no wave in Yun Mo's eyes, only
Sincere eyes and unabashed calmness.
Ayato Kamisato had been brewing the words for a long time. In Yun Mo's sincere eyes, he suddenly didn't know how to speak. Finally, he sighed and said, "Oh, that's it. I don't object to you and Ayahua being together, but
…”
As he spoke, Kamisato Ayato paused.
Yun Mo felt happy when he heard this. It seemed that he had gained the trust of his uncle. He quickly asked: "But what?"
"If you want to marry Ayaka, you must become the leader of Kamuri-ryu. This is what Ayaka and I have agreed upon. If you want to marry her, you must pass the trial of Kamuri-ryu." Kamisato Aya.
The person looked at Yun Mo and said, his eyes fell on Yun Mo, with a look of expectation in his eyes.
"Shouldn't you be the leader of the Kami-ri-ryu?" Yun Mo was a little confused. Even if the previous leader of the Kami-ri-ryu passed away, there would still be two descendants, so I, a person with a foreign surname, would not be the one to inherit.
Kamisato Ayato was stunned for a moment, with a complicated look on his face, and then asked: "Yunmo, what is the current level of your Kamisato-ryu swordsmanship?"
Yun Mo was a little strange and said: "The achievements achieved now should be, ten trials, so I don't want to pass them on."
The highest level of kendo in general schools is proved by the kendo. Most sects use one-to-many kenden, and Kamari-ryu is no exception. Because Yunmo is a person with a foreign surname, the test he accepts is the most stringent.
Yunmo won this title in a battle between ten people.
"That's right, you are not allowed to spread the word, but my level is just cutting paper. I am the leader, how can I convince everyone?" Hearing this, Ayato Kamisato smiled bitterly, then looked at Yunmo and laughed at himself.
.
It is not that Kamisato Ayato has never thought about inheriting Kamisari-ryu, but he does not have the qualifications and understanding in this area. His swordsmanship is far inferior to that of his sister, let alone the stronger Yunmo.
Kamisato Ayato looked at Yunmo and said: "If you can win the school trial and prove your own strength, then I can safely hand over Ayahua to you."
Hearing this, Yun Mo frowned and said, "What is the trial?"
Kamisato Ayato took a sip of tea and said: "Actually, it's almost the same as when you were living in Kazuki, except that your opponents will no longer be kendo teachers, but those kendo masters who are practicing their swordsmanship in silence in the mountains. Be careful.
, they are all people who have been immersed in the art of swordsmanship for decades, and their swordsmanship is beyond the reach of ordinary people."
"Oh?" Yun Mo nodded, with a fighting spirit in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly as he said, "No matter who is standing between me and Linghua, I will eliminate them one by one."
Seeing Yun Mo's demeanor and hearing Yun Mo's heroic words, Ayato Kamisari had a look of admiration in his eyes. He said to Yun Mo, "Then I wish you success and successfully pass the test."
Yun Mo nodded slightly and said, "When will it start? Tomorrow?"
"Don't be impatient. It takes time to prepare for the inheritance ceremony. It also takes time for the old swordsmen to come out. During this time, you can prepare more." Kamisato Ayato looked at Yun Mo with a smile and said with a burning gaze:
"I hope you won't disappoint us."
"Don't worry, I will try my best." Yun Mo nodded, the fighting spirit in his eyes fleeting.
Hearing this, Kamisato Ayato smiled slightly.
