The fourteenth day of the lunar month is for accommodation. The "Japanese Almanac" records: You can go to bed, wear Japanese culottes, move house, entertain guests. Get married, which is a big disaster.
Kazuyo Sorayama was pleasantly surprised by Kiriko who suddenly spoke, but the surprise was obviously greater than the joy. His perception of Kiriko was obviously not as complicated as the girl's view of him. He could barely be regarded as a half-disciple, and more of a kind of saying no.
In Kazuyo Sorayama's opinion, once he solves the troubles with the shogunate or Kiriko grows up, he can leave him and find a life of his own. He has never thought about being with this person who is nearly three times younger than him.
What other feelings does the girl develop?
"Kiroko..." Sorayama Kazuyo sighed in his heart and said calmly: "Very good, you finally spoke. Don't worry, I won't leave in a short time." He deliberately avoided other intentions hidden in Kiroko's words.
, but the girl who broke through the language barrier did not do as he wished, and said in increasingly fluent words: "Kiriko wants to be with Kongshan for the rest of his life."
Sorayama Kazuyo felt helpless. He looked at Chiba Sana and found that not only was there no jealousy or anger in the other person's eyes, but there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, and he seemed to be in a good mood. Chiba Sana crossed over to Sorayama Kazuyo and walked to Kiriko.
In front of him, he raised his hand to touch her hair, but was slapped away by the girl, who raised his head and glared at the girl.
Sanai was still not angry, and said softly: "Wuzi... girl, you like my husband very much. Don't worry, no one will chase you away, but even if you want to marry your husband, you need to grow up quickly."
"
Kiroko did not speak, but stepped back a few steps to let the door open. He pulled out the Kodachi sword from his back, pointed at Chiba Sana from afar, and said with a cold expression: "Songshan, the best in the world, don't be a weak woman. If you lose, leave."
Chiba Sana put her hand on her forehead, and everyone was stunned.
Hiko Seijuro couldn't hold back anymore, laughed out loud, and pointed at Sorayama Kazuha out of breath: "Kiriyama, Sorayama! Kiriko is really your direct descendant, and is used to using swords to solve problems, but I am the first
Once I saw a woman using a sword when fighting for a man, hahahahahahahaha, if I can’t do it anymore I will die..."
"Shut up! Hiko!" Kazuyo Sorayama became angry. He turned to look at Kiriko and shouted, "Put your sword away! I'm not teaching you swordsmanship for this purpose." Kiriko, who had always obeyed Kazuyo Sorayama's words, seemed not to have listened.
Even though she was ordinary, she was still staring straight at Chiba Sana, and she would not give up until the opponent drew his sword!
Kazuyo Sorayama frowned slightly. He was about to knock out Kiriko forcibly before talking, but was stopped by Sanai, who had foreseen it. The girl shook her head slightly, "Let women resolve matters between women."
"Zana, I..." Kazuyo Sorayama looked at the girl with a guilty conscience. In this situation, he basically had no good solution except to use violence to break the situation. But this time he suppressed it forcefully. What about next time? What about the next time? If Kiriko doesn't reach it,
He has a character that never gives up. If this matter is not properly resolved today, he is not very relieved about what will happen in the future. How terrible is a person with an extreme personality, especially this person who is an underage woman, he vaguely wonders.
You can also guess...
"We'll talk after the fight. Don't worry, I won't take the opportunity to hurt her." Chiba Sana said quietly. She was quite confident in her swordsmanship. In the years she has been traveling in Japan, she has never been a bandit or a robber.
Have you ever seen? I personally killed as many villains as I can with my hands. With the brutal training in actual combat and the Beichen Itto-ryu Kodachi swordsmanship passed down by Chiba Shusaku, even those famous swordsmen dare not say that they can definitely defeat her now.
Of course Kazuyo Sorayama can also see this. After all, he taught Kiriko martial arts, and he knows the girl's swordsmanship well. If it was Sana when they first met a few years ago, she would definitely not be Kiriko's opponent now, but from Sana
From the faint murderous aura and rhythmic pace she exudes, it can be seen that the girl's swordsmanship must have improved by leaps and bounds in the past few years. It should be easy to defeat a girl who is seven years younger than her.
Seeing that Sorayama Kazuha didn't object, Sanai took out the Kodachi sword from his waist and bit it in his mouth. He lifted up the hem of his kimono and tied it into a wide belt. He reached out and took out a silk scarf from his arms, tore it open, and tied the cuffs neatly.
Judging from the proficiency of her techniques, she must have done these things more than once. She is worthy of being a daughter of the martial arts family!
The girl walked out of the front hall with the sword in hand, stood in front of Kiriko and bowed slightly: "Beichen Yitōryu Chiba Sana, please enlighten me." After saying that, she pulled out the Kodachi, which was nearly a foot shorter than the average sword, and opened the middle stance.
At this moment, the soft and affectionate girl disappeared, and a fierce murderous aura burst out, as if she would split open the opponent's door with the force of thunder in the next second.
Higu Seijuro put away his smile, walked up to Kazuyo Sorayama and said quietly: "I can't tell that such a beautiful woman is also a master of swordsmanship. Just looking at this posture, I know that she must have practiced excellent swordsmanship, although she is not as good as my flying sword."
"Her surname is Chiba, Chiba Shusaku's Chiba." "In the temple... I am also familiar with the name of Japan's number one swordsman. There are many masters of Beichen Ittou style, and I have also fought with some of them.
I have competed with others, but it seems that she is not as advanced in swordsmanship as the girl in front of me." "Zonai is very talented in swordsmanship. I once had the idea of accepting her as my disciple, but I couldn't do it due to her gender identity."
"Ahhh! Kongshan, I understand!" "What?" "So you have a tradition! The purpose of accepting a disciple is not pure, it is for training, right, it must be! Why should I accept this stupid apprentice like Kenshin?
How can I practice it? It seems that I also want to find a female disciple..."
Ignoring Hiko Seijuro's nonsense, Sorayama Kazuha's attention was entirely focused on the duel between the two on the field. He intuitively reacted that this competition was not as simple as Sana thought.
When he first taught Kiriko martial arts, he always reminded the girl of the importance of "mind's eye", which is to observe the opponent from every detail. It was impossible for Kiriko not to notice that Sanai's swordsmanship was better than hers, but why did she insist on competing?
?Although taking himself as a bet made Kazuyo Sorayama very angry, he also knew the importance of this competition to the girl. After all, it was she who proposed the conditions. If she failed, how could she have the nerve to continue to stalk her? Could it be that Kiriko had the guts to do so?
Is there any method you don’t understand that you use as a sure kill?
"Come on, let me see how much swordsmanship my husband's disciples have learned from him." Chiba Sana's fighting spirit was high, and he signaled the other party to come and attack. "No, you are not allowed to call him husband!" Kiroko stumbled and roared.
, but the petite body and the milky voice are very destructive, just like a kitten with its teeth and claws.
Zona couldn't help but smile slightly, "Little girl, if you let me attack first, you won't have a chance to take action. I, Beichen Itōryū..." Before she could finish her words, Wuzi had already leaned over Zona's legs like a ray of black light.
Of course, it is impossible for Kiriko to use the teleportation technique that is extremely demanding on the body, but Kuyama Kazuyo's secret method of exerting force and the movement skills specially created for her make her speed far faster than others.
In the eyes of Kenshin, who had just learned swordsmanship, this sister who looked to be a few years older than him and who usually only took care of everyone's daily life was actually faster than his master! If Higurashi Seijuro knew about it, he would definitely say something like
"Stupid apprentice", "Stupid boy" and the like.
Chiba Sana watched Kiriko approaching calmly. Although she was surprised by the speed shown by the other party, she did not panic and instantly prepared at least three ways to deal with it.
Before the control reaches the level of Ichiyo in the Sky, the faster the speed, the harder it is to change the moves. Looking at the head-to-head skills of straight-line attack, which swordsmanship in the world can beat the "cut off" technique?
The profound meaning of Beichen Yidao Style!
Facing the ferocious Kiriko, Chiba Sana let out a low cry, and struck the short knife in the girl's hand with a diagonal slash from left to right. Sana, who did not want to hurt her life, did not choose to use the ultimate secret weapon from the beginning.
She just wanted to knock the opponent's weapon away by striking the sword with her sword. She was confident that with the Beichen Yitōryu technique that she had practiced for more than ten years, once the girl chose to fight head-on, she would never be able to hold the short sword in her hand.
Although Wuzi didn't understand Beichen's Itto-ryu's domineering power, she knew the consequences of weapon collision just based on her age, body shape, and aura. How could she use her own shortcomings to attack others' strengths? The girl made a sudden move and let Sanai's blade pass.
If you switch to Kuyama Ichiha, you will definitely seize the moment when the opponent hits the air and kill him. However, from rapid to extremely still, the body needs to fight against the strong inertial kinetic energy. If you want to control the body again and make acceleration movements, it will be far more difficult than before.
It takes much more time and effort for an opponent to only wave his arms. The best strategy at this time is to avoid counterattacks first and look for a new opportunity to attack.
However, Kiriko, who had quite the essence of Sorayama Kazuha, did not retreat and change his moves. Instead, he rushed away diagonally, went around behind Sanai, then turned around and accelerated to attack Sanai. In this way, Kiriko made rapid attacks again and again, and Sanai calmly resolved them again and again.
, even if a peasant who is not skilled in martial arts saw this scene, he would know that the girl actually couldn't find any good way to break through the opponent's defense, and was just wasting her energy in vain. In the end, she would definitely be defeated because she was the first to run out of energy.
Chiba Sana looked at the little girl who was already slightly out of breath, and felt relieved. It was a good choice to just wait for the opponent to give up due to exhaustion. Compared with the long sword, the small sword is more conducive to defense, plus the strength of the one-sword style.
The offensive skills integrated into Chiba Sana can be said to be a combination of offense and defense, with no flaws in itself.
Sensing that the opponent's aura was no longer as condensed and compelling as it was at the beginning, Kiroko couldn't help but secretly rejoice. She tried her best and was waiting for this moment! Her body shape remained the same, and she rushed over with her original posture. Chiba Sana followed suit.
She lifted the knife from bottom to top. Just when she thought the girl would stop or change direction, Wuzi's body, which was already very low, suddenly hit the ground. If it were an ordinary person, her knees would have been bruised as if she had fallen.
Elbow, but the girl's control over her body actually improved again. Under Kiriko's twist, the distance between her and Sana actually shortened out of thin air!
The shortest distance between two points is a straight line. This is a law of physics, but if these two points are folded, then this distance will be infinitely close to zero! From suddenly touching the ground to appearing directly in front of Zona, it seems that the fog has ignored a few meters.
The earth is like the earth folding on its own initiative to help her move forward!
What Zana, who was shocked, didn't see was that the moment Kiriko hit the ground, her left hand, which was holding the knife in both hands, suddenly let go of the handle of the knife, and her fingers made several strange seals in succession, and finally she was stabbed in several places on her chest and abdomen.
The position was lightly clicked a few times. Just like that, Kiriko seemed to be blessed by a mysterious power. Her body slipped under Sanai's blade, and the short knife in her right hand went straight to slice off her calf.
Although Chiba Sana's swordsmanship is high, she has a very fatal flaw. She has never fought with other people's lives. None of the evil people she killed were people with a similar level of cultivation to her. Most of them were people with ordinary swordsmanship.
Ronin and even villagers with swords in their hands made her lack the decision between life and death.
If he were a swordsman who had fought all the way from the war at this time, he would have ignored his own defense and turned the blade upside down so that the tip of the blade was facing down. He would hold the handle with his left hand and press down hard! If Kiriko didn't dodge, this sword would definitely be
He would penetrate the girl's chest from the back and nail her directly to the ground, and he would lose "just" one leg.
However, Sana lacked this kind of life-threatening experience and did not want to hurt anyone at all. She used all her strength to jump back. She could only hope that Kiriko would not actually cut off her legs in front of her lover.
But how could Kiriko be as soft-hearted as she is? The girl who had already formulated a strategy before the competition had already waved the short sword in her hand without hesitation: Maybe Kongshan will still want you after you become a cripple, but at that time you still have
Can you take care of him? Can you still follow him when he goes out? At that time, only I can be with him at all times...
The little girl has already made up her mind. Even if she uses the secret ninjutsu "Shuchi no Jutsu" in Fuuma that has been sealed by herself for many years and has never been used in front of Sorayama Kazuyo, she will still kill Sanai! If the opponent really kills her on the spot.
Killing, that doesn't matter; but if the other party hesitates, then... cut off your legs!
