271, the guard of the sword-drawing fast (please complete the order)
Steamship, restaurant.
This is a high-end restaurant opened on the third floor of the ship, Italian style, elegant and beautiful.
There is a pianist in a tuxedo playing the piano in the corner.
The notes are wonderful.
"You are...Himura Kenshin, oh, no, should I call you Himura-senpai?"
"The legendary Battōsai?"
Bai Gui cut off a piece of steak with a knife and fork, looked at the short samurai sitting opposite him with a cross scar on his left cheek, and asked.
When checking tickets just now, he secretly asked Yamada Mitsuko and roughly learned the whole story.
Indeed, as he thought, Mitsuo Yamada did not allow Mitsuko Yamada to associate with him again. However, due to Mitsuko Yamada's "reasonable arguments" and the Tokyo University, Professor Shiraishi had already applied to Yale for Mitsuko Yamada.
Mitsuo Yamada had no choice but to accept the university quota.
Female students are not allowed to stay in college.
But coincidentally, Kenshin Himura came to visit the Yamada family.
Kondo Isao of the Shinsengumi has been looking for Himura Kenshin, just to let Himura Kenshin take action for Japanese Kendo, defeat Hakui, and restore the reputation of Japanese Kendo. Although Hakui defeated Kondo Isao in a private competition, ordinary people
I didn’t know that Japan’s kendo had been overtaken by a young man, but Kondo Isao couldn’t help but feel bad in his heart.
I searched for it for several months at first, but couldn't find it. Then I asked a friend to go look for it.
After this delay, it has arrived this year.
It's just that he didn't spend long time alone with Yamada Mitsuko, and he only knew some general information.
"Himura-senpai and my father have an old relationship. My father...well, he has liked practicing kendo since he was a child, so he got to know Uncle Funakoshi, Himura-senpai and others..."
"Batōsai is just a name."
Yamada Mitsuko whispered from the side.
"I see."
Bai Gui suddenly realized.
Although Funakoshi Fumio was in a good position and could make friends with ministers, it was somewhat inappropriate to say that he had such a good relationship with the Yamada family and that Mitsuko Yamada even called Funakoshi Fumio uncle.
The only explanation is that the Yamada family, like Mengchang Juntianwen, likes to invite guests and treat virtuous corporals.
After all... Japan is not that big.
Just like in the Japanese literary world, most of them are graduates of Tokyo University. Kawabata Yasunari, Akutagawa Ryunosuke, Mori Ogai, and Natsume Soseki are all alumni of Tokyo University.
"Isao Kondo said that your swordsmanship is superb and you are far better than him."
"His trash can't represent Japanese Kendo, and I...as the fourteenth generation descendant of Feitian Yuken Ryu, I am qualified to represent Japanese Kendo."
Himura Kenshin touched his reverse-blade katana, couldn't help but glance at Yamada Mitsuko, and then said: "It's just a matter of course that I escort Mitsuko to Amei Ken Country."
"The main reason is that I am getting old and I also want to visit Amei Ken Country."
He sighed sadly, his words full of regret.
Whether it is the Choshu Domain or the Satsuma Domain, the reason why the overthrow movement started is inseparable from the Ameken Kingdom. It was precisely because of the Ameken Kingdom's black ship incident that led to the situation in Japan. And he...Himura Ken
Although Kokoro has the title of Battousai and Executioner, he is just an insignificant pawn in the general trend of history. As a member of the Choshu Domain's strange troops, he went to assassinate important officials of the shogunate.
Now, as he approaches old age, he also wants to visit Amei Ken Country.
"My sister, Ken's country is indeed developed..."
Bai Gui was also silent.
Just like the cartoon "Tom and Jerry" he watched later in life, it was produced and released by MGM in 1939. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, Li Zhongtang was invited to visit Amei Ken Country, which was full of high-rise buildings.
Although Japan at this time was much better than China, and industrialization had begun, if compared with the current Amei Ken country, it was a sky and a place away, and it couldn't compare at all.
"But... I have seen Guangzi since she was a child. I don't mind teaching her some swordsmanship techniques during this journey."
"For self-defense!"
Himura Kenshin narrowed his eyes, glanced at Bai Gui, and said coldly.
"Ahem..."
Bai Gui coughed slightly and his expression returned to normal.
Although swordsmanship is said to be precious and cannot be passed on randomly, but this kind of thing actually depends on the person. For example, if he worships Master Ma as his disciple and learns Kou Si's Monkey Fist and Huo Yuanjia's Mizong Fist, it is very simple.
There is nothing to make things difficult.
In the same way, as long as Yamada Mitsuko wants to learn martial arts, a little knowledge of kendo will not be a waste of time.
"Guangzi is already quite old now. It's probably too late to learn martial arts..."
Bai Gui argued hard.
He didn't want to be beaten by Mitsuko Yamada.
"Mr. Bai, I was taught some martial arts knowledge by Uncle Funakoshi when I was a child..."
"The basics are still there..."
Mitsuko Yamada added.
"Senior Photon's martial arts training is also beneficial. It can be used for self-defense."
"When you arrive in a foreign country, it is inevitable that you will not be safe."
"Miwa, why are you stopping Mitsuko-senpai from doing this? It's not like me that she has your protection."
Bai Xiuzhu pursed her lips and wrote lightly.
"Well!"
"I have some secret medicine for martial arts training here, and I will give you some later."
Bai Gui said helplessly.
He still knows a little bit about the Japanese swordsmanship. Although it is said that practice can strengthen the body, the sword is often eccentric, such as Yagyu, who is nothing without the sword. Most people who practice swordsmanship are prone to injury, which is not the same as some in China.
The martial arts masters who have passed down the tradition are almost the same. When they reach a certain age, their bodies often suffer a lot of hidden injuries and it is difficult to die.
"Well, thank you Mr. Bai."
Yamada Mitsuko thanked him.
"As for Battousai, you just said that you were just escorting Mitsuko by the way."
"So...when do you plan to compete with me?"
Bai Gui glanced at Himura Kenshin coldly and said.
As he spoke, his momentum increased, just like a butcher who has been slaughtering livestock for a long time, and people will avoid him when he walks. He has been practicing martial arts for a long time, and he has also practiced Taoism. His physique is different from before, and his eyesight is profound. Ordinary people are attracted by him.
At first glance, one must be timid.
"I'm already this old."
"You are in your prime, and you compete with me in martial arts. According to what you Central Plains people say, aren't you a bit invincible?"
Himura Kenshin still looked the same, holding the sword and saying.
"Bai-kun, Senior Feimura is getting older and he no longer has the physical strength he once had. He is not as good as before. You need to give this senior Feimura some time."
Mitsuko Yamada advised.
"Photon, you don't need to say more."
"I'll take this guy's invitation. Originally, Kondo Isao asked me to come here just to compete with you. But I'm old. I heard Kondo Isao asking me to come out two years ago and ignored him. Now I'm at sea.
time……"
"Having a competition with him can also fulfill some of my wishes."
Himura Kenshin pondered for a while and said.
He would be extremely happy if he could compete with a junior with advanced martial arts skills like Bai Gui.
"In five days, I will be able to reach my peak level of cultivation."
Battousai said seriously.
When he spoke at this moment, he really looked like a Battousai, with a murderous intent, like a Shura coming out of the sea of blood.
