Chapter 200 Knife in hand! Cut Qingdeng! Grab Zonazi! [7600
】
This beautiful female voice made Qingden raise his eyes.
He saw a young woman walking gracefully toward him in the direction of the entrance of the Little Chiba Sword Hall.
The person who came was none other than Sanako.
At this time, Sanako is in the state of a "female warrior".
Three thousand black hair is hung high with a blue ribbon and tied into a neat high ponytail at the back of the head. The white top and blue kendo uniform perfectly outlines the curvy figure. A pair of clean white socks and a pair of
Exquisite flat wooden clogs with blue buttons wrap around her slender feet.
At this time, there happened to be a warm summer breeze blowing.
The green leaves on the ground danced in the wind.
Also dancing were the blue ribbon used to tie Sanako's hair, the smooth hair on her forehead and temples, and the hakama corners of her skirt.
The ribbons and hair swaying in the wind gave the nearby sky and earth a different kind of brilliance.
"Miss Sanako, good morning."
"Good morning, Mr. Tachibana. I just happened to be playing with Carrot in the yard. When I saw Carrot running towards the outside of the sword hall, I knew it was you."
Qingden smiled, raised his hand, and rubbed the big black cow's head vigorously a few times: "Haha, I don't know if this big black cow remembers my scent or recognizes my footsteps."
Carrot: "Moo~~!"
Ever since he was discharged from Jinyitang, Aoshinobu would come to the Little Chiba Kenkan every 4 or 5 days to visit Radish.
Frequent visits to the Little Chiba Sword Hall made Qingto get acquainted with Sanako unknowingly.
In the past, the relationship between the two was actually quite unfamiliar.
They were polite to each other, and their conversations were basically ordinary greetings.
Being unfamiliar with each other, Qingto didn't even know what topics to talk about with Sanako.
Nowadays, Qingden can chat with Sanako in a very leisurely mood about family issues and common topics among friends.
Even if the two of them are alone, they no longer feel awkward or reserved.
Such a change in the relationship between the two parties... all the things that happened that night 2 months ago are indispensable.
At the critical moment, Sanako was rescued, and Sanako assisted Qingto in rushing to the settlement... Although the scenes in that night were very short, they still cultivated a different kind of bond between the two.
If Qingto and Sanako could only be regarded as "people who know each other" before, then today, the friendship between them is enough to be called "friends".
It’s a rare visit to Little Chiba Sword Hall, so naturally it’s impossible to just visit Radish.
Out of politeness, Chiba Nobuyoshi, Chiba Jutaro and others all need to say hello.
So, after a few brief greetings with Sanako, Aomori said:
"Miss Sanako, are your father and Mr. Jutaro at the sword hall now?"
"Father, he is temporarily out of town due to something else." Sanako said, "Brother, he is teaching swordsmanship to the apprentices at Yichang."
Sanako, who knew that Aoto wanted to say hello to Chiba Jutaro, continued:
"Tangerine-kun, let me take you to meet your brother."
Qingden nodded in response.
Sanako led the radish back to the yard of the Little Chiba Sword Hall, which was spacious enough for horse racing, and then led Aoto towards the second field of the Little Chiba Sword Hall.
As a large sword hall that rivals the "Three Major Sword Halls of Edo" in terms of scale and reputation, including the Honke Genbukan, the Kochiba Sword Hall has a set of luxurious infrastructure that matches its name and scale.
.
There are three dojos in Xiaochiba Sword Hall. In order to facilitate distinction and management, these three dojos are named "Achang", "Bchang" and "Cchang" respectively.
Field C is exclusively for apprentices who are still lacking in strength.
Field B is the "advanced field" and "master field". Only apprentices who have reached a certain level and whose strength is recognized can enter and exit here.
The Koba located at the deepest part of the Little Chiba Sword Hall is the smallest dojo - it is the private dojo of the Chiba family and can only be used by Chiba Jutaro, Sanako and other members of the Chiba family.
On the way to Field B, Sanako recalled something and turned to Qingden behind her and whispered softly:
"By the way, Tachibana-kun, my fourth cousin... Chiba Tamon Shiro happens to be here right now. He was ill a while ago, and my brother and I jointly sent him a box of expensive supplements. He is here today.
Come to say thank you."
Hearing this, Qingdeng raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Chiba Tamonshiro happens to be here right now..."
Qingdeng smiled calmly.
"Haha, I haven't seen him for a while."
Chiba Tamon Shiro... The first encounter between Aonto and this master of the Genbukan can be traced back to the "Plum Blossom Festival" nearly half a year ago.
Qingdeng had some unpleasant encounters with him because he made rude remarks to the Imperial Guard in public.
Aoto guessed that the reason why Sanako suddenly informed him that "Chiba Tamonshiro is here" was probably because he wanted to prepare himself mentally in advance for Aoto who had a slight conflict with Chiba Tamonshiro.
Thinking of this, Qingden couldn't help but thought to himself: Sanako's little thoughts...are really too much worries.
Although I did have some minor conflicts with Chiba Tamonshiro, this happened nearly half a year ago.
What happened between him and Chiba Tamonshiro was not a big deal in the first place, so Qingto stopped caring about the unpleasantness that happened with Chiba Tamonshiro a long time ago.
Although Chiba Tamonshiro is somewhat arrogant and has a kind of contempt and a sense of superiority towards small and medium-sized sword halls such as the Shoukekan, Chiba Tamonshiro also has some advantages that Aintou admires very much.
For example - Chiba Tamon Shiro is very caring about his family.
Aoto once heard from Chiba Jutaro: When Sanako was kidnapped by the anti-barbarian group, Chiba Tamonshiro was no less nervous than Chiba Sadayoshi and Chiba Jutaro.
In order to find Sanako, Chiba Tamonshiro ran around and didn't sleep for 2 days in a row.
After Aoto successfully rescued Sanako, Chiba Tamonshiro followed Chiba Sadayoshi and others to the Jinyitang to solemnly thank Aoto who had just been hospitalized at that time.
Perhaps some of Chiba Tamonshiro's characters are indeed not very likable, but his love for his family and his emphasis on family ties are worthy of recognition.
In the blink of an eye, Qingteng and Sanako had arrived outside the gate of Field B.
As soon as the gate of Court B came into view, Aomori had already heard Chiba Jutaro's loud and loud voice coming from Court B——
…
"It's not exciting! Morishita, your Qihe sound is too soft! You can't hear it at all! Try again!"
"Yes! Drink ah ah ah -!"
"Good! You're very energetic! You just need to be energetic like this! Hey, Hirata, what's going on with your posture? Is this the posture of Beichen's Itto-ryu? It's only been two moments, and you're so tired that you can't even hold the sword.
Are you unsteady? Straighten your waist! Don't hold the sword so tightly! Give the sword a little 'rhythm'! Relax your palm! Relax a little more!"
"yes!"
"Okino, you've committed your old habit again! If your feet are so firmly planted, your steps will become inflexible! Both feet must be firmly planted on the ground, but also maintain a certain degree of agility!"
"yes!"
…
In Field B, more than fifty apprentices were fighting each other in pairs.
The sound of feet hitting the ground, the sound of bamboo swords clashing, the loud sound of Qi coming together...these sounds were mixed together, deafening.
As a teacher, Jutaro Chiba holds a bamboo sword and walks around the dojo, supervising the movements of the apprentices and whether they are in good condition.
If anyone behaves irregularly, Chiba Jutaro will immediately rush to that person like a cat smelling fishy smell and "reward" that person with a stern reprimand.
"Hmm? Tachibana-kun?"
At this time, Chiba Jutaro discovered Aoto who was standing side by side with Sanako outside the gate of the dojo.
In the next moment, Chiba Jutaro performed a very vivid "Sichuan Opera Face Changing".
Chiba Jutaro, who up until just now had kept a straight face and looked particularly ferocious, showed a bright and cheerful expression.
"Hahaha! Orange-kun! You're here!"
Chiba Jutaro, who carried the bamboo sword in his hand on his shoulder, laughed and walked straight up to Aoto in three steps and started a warm exchange of greetings with Aoto.
Some people in the dojo also stopped what they were doing.
"Mr. Orange?"
"Jijun, you're here again."
"Good morning, Tachibana."
…
Aoto's frequent appearances at the Little Chiba Sword Hall these days have not only made him more familiar with Sanako, but also Chiba Jutaro.
He took advantage of this situation and made many apprentices from the Little Chiba Sword Hall, and made many new friends.
Ayoto spoke to the people he knew, headed by Chiba Jutaro, one by one and said hello.
Among these people he knew, Qingden soon discovered a very familiar old face.
"Tangerine-kun, have you come to visit your cow again?"
A gentle male voice like the spring breeze came into Qingdeng's ears... A tall young man standing not far from Qingdeng slowly took off the protective mask on his head.
Under the mask, there is a delicate face with two tear moles at the corner of the right eye.
"Shannan?" Qingdeng said in surprise.
"Tachibana-kun." Shannan Keisuke, who had an elegant smile on his lips, nodded gently to Aomori, "Good morning. We haven't seen each other for a while. If I remember correctly, we haven't seen each other since August.
We’ve met.”
Aoden has been visiting the Little Chiba Sword Hall recently, so naturally, he has spent more time with Shannan Keisuke... this old friend who has been training swordsmanship in the Little Chiba Sword Hall.
"Shannan." Qingdeng smiled and congratulated Shannan in an unpretentious and sincere tone, "I have already heard that you successfully received Beichen Itto-ryu's free pass at the end of last month. Congratulations.
You!"
"Thank you." Shannan chuckled humbly, "Tachibana-kun, I think with your talent and strength, it won't be long before it's my turn to congratulate you on obtaining the highest seal of Natural Rishin-ryu.
Already."
"Hahahaha, I accept your good advice."
The value of Fu Xu Jie Chuan is closely related to which sect you study under.
Chiba Sadaikichi of the Little Chiba Swordsman Academy awarded you the Hokushin Itto-ryu's Hōnō Kaiden, and the unknown swordsman at a certain country dojo awarded you the Hōrō Kedden of the unknown sect... Which of the two is better?
The gold content is higher, obviously.
This is also an important reason why samurai like to go to those big sword halls to learn swordsmanship.
Therefore, Shannan Keisuke was able to obtain Hoshin Itto-ryu's Fusu Jedden at the Little Chiba Sword Hall... This is quite a remarkable achievement and can make countless samurai jealous.
Qingdeng wanted to chat with Shannan for a few more words, but suddenly, he felt the breath of someone behind him.
Just as he turned his head to look back, a familiar young male voice sounded from behind Qingdeng.
"Tangerine-kun?"
Standing behind Aonobu is a young man whose face looks somewhat similar to Chiba Jutaro and Sanako...it is Chiba Tamon Shiro.
There were a lot of water stains on Chiba Tamonshiro's hands, and Qingto guessed that he had just returned from using the toilet.
The young swordsman, who was only in his early 20s, raised his eyebrows, and then looked at Qingden expressionlessly.
"Are you... coming to visit the big black cow you foster here again?"
"Yes." Qingden smiled slightly, "Chiba-kun, long time no see."
"Well...Long time no see." Chiba Tamonshiro hesitated for a moment, then nodded gently and responded to Qingto's proactive greeting.
Chiba Jutaro still needs to teach swordsmanship, and Shannan also needs to continue practicing swordsmanship. Naturally, they cannot chat with Ayoto for a long time.
Therefore, after briefly greeting Qingdeng a few times, they returned to their business and continued to do their own work.
As a result, Aomori could only stand at the edge of the dojo with Sanako, who had nothing important to do at the moment, and Chiba Tamonshiro, who was also very free now, and chatted together.
"...Tachibana-kun."
During the chat, Chiba Tamonshiro suddenly asked Aonori with a very serious expression.
"How are you preparing for the red-white battle in eight days' time?"
"We have assembled the maximum combat power for the time being." Qingto replied in a half-joking tone, "Uncle Gen...oh, no, Inoue Genzaburo returned to Edo a few days ago."
"As long as there are no accidents, all the current masters in our trial defense hall will be able to go into battle in eight days."
"Genzaburo Inoue is back?" Chiba Tamonshiro's eyebrows twitched slightly and he pondered, "It seems... the battle in eight days will be more difficult than I imagined."
Today is August 12th.
There are only 8 days left until August 20th...that is, the day when the Trial Guard Hall and the Xuanwu Hall will hold the red and white battle together!
This red and white battle is very large - there are 20 people from each side. It is a 20vs20 melee.
Just the day before yesterday, after a long period of deliberation, Shusuke finally decided on the list of 20 people who will represent the Imperial Guard Hall in this red-white match.
Qingden, who has completely recovered, is among them.
The names of the four main players of the Trial Guard Hall: Kondo, Hijikata, Okita, and the newly returned Inoue are also on the list.
Nagakura, Saito, and Harada are all diners of the Sword Hall, not apprentices of the Sword Hall, so none of them can participate in this grand event that only apprentices of the Sword Hall can participate in.
The three of them could only stand on the edge of the field as "cheerleaders" and cheer for Qingdeng and the others.
To put it simply - Qingteng Shicai's words are indeed correct. The Trial Guard Hall has indeed assembled its maximum combat power.
Except for Zhousuke, who is no longer able to participate in such a high-intensity swordsmanship competition due to his old age, all the masters from the trial defense hall will join the battle after the 8th!
At first glance, the "battle list" is quite luxurious, with all the masters that the trial defense hall can send out.
However... everyone in the Trial Guard Hall, including Qingdeng, had no idea what the outcome of this upcoming fierce battle would be.
Because just a few days ago, they received news that Michizaburo Chiba was going to personally participate in this red and white battle!
Michizaburo Chiba... After hearing this name and knowing that they would probably face this person in this red-white battle, many people in the trial defense hall were immediately trembling.
Prior to this, in all the red and white battles between the Imperial Guard Hall and the Xuanbu Hall, there had never been a precedent for Chiba Michizaburo to end personally.
Chiba Michizaburo, who has been famous for a long time and can wield two swords at once, is going to join the war. We are definitely going to lose. Very few people directly shouted out this kind of defeatist speech that enhances other people's ambition and destroys our prestige.
Some people call it "invincible"... This is not the scariest thing.
The most frightening thing is that many people have not refuted these negative remarks.
Recalling the news that the atmosphere in the Imperial Examination Hall had been very dull recently, Ayoto, after pondering for a moment, asked softly to Chiba Tamonshiro next to him:
"...Chiba-kun. I heard that your brother Chiba Michisaburo will personally participate in this red and white battle. Is this true?"
"Huh? Oh, you're talking about this..."
The corners of Chiba Tamonshiro's mouth raised a vague arc.
"It's true. My third brother is indeed determined to participate in this red-white war."
"What a surprise..." Qingdeng said slowly, "Obviously in all the red and white battles between our Trial Guard Hall and your Xuanwu Hall, he never left the field to participate, so why did he suddenly make an exception this time?"
"...Tachibana-kun." After Chiba Tamonshiro was silent for a while, he turned his eyes and fixed his gaze on Qingto, "It's rare that I meet you here by chance today... I will confess to you."
"The reason why Third Brother made an exception to participate in this red and white battle is because of you."
"Because of me?" Qingdeng was startled.
"Everyone with a discerning eye can see that in the "Plum Blossom Festival" half a year ago, your trial defense hall relied on you to defeat the Little Chiba Sword Hall."
"Third brother, he has long wanted to personally test how powerful the trial gym has become after having you too many."
"And the strength and achievements you showed in the battle against the Yi group more than two months ago... This further increased the third brother's interest in you."
"Third brother, he is very determined this time - he is going to have a good fight with your trial defense hall in the red and white battle in eight days' time."
"Ha..." Qingdeng understood the reason and laughed dumbly, "Then I'm really scared."
"You all should be prepared." Chiba Tamonshiro looked away from Qingto, "My third brother is very strong."
Speaking of this, Chiba Tamonshiro, who always had few expressions, showed a rare proud smile.
"The third brother's ability to secure his position as the second-generation head of the Genbukan and the second-generation head of the Beichen Ittoryu clan relies on more than just his identity as the 'third son of Chiba Shusaku'."
"Let me put it bluntly - even if you, Kondo, Hijikata, Okita, and Inoue come together, they will not be my third brother's opponent."
Chiba Tamonshiro's confident and somewhat provocative speech did not arouse Aonto's displeasure or annoyance.
He showed an expression of displeasure and annoyance, which were the most indescribable negative emotions.
"……Hahaha."
After Chiba Tamonshiro finished speaking, Aoden chuckled a few times.
"Hearing what you say, I am even more looking forward to the battle in eight days."
"When the time comes, please be sure to give me your advice!"
Qingdeng's words and expressions were dyed with a cheerful smile without any pretense or pretense.
"...?" Chiba Tamonshiro, who did not expect Qingto to show such an expression, was stunned when he spoke.
Sanako, who has a relatively close relationship with Qingteng and roughly knows Qingteng's personality, pursed her red lips, tilted her beautiful eyes slightly, and looked at Qingteng standing side by side with her eyes with a faint smile -
- Sanako's look seemed to be saying to Qingto: I knew you would say that.
What Aoto said to Chiba Tamonshiro just now, "I am looking forward even more to the battle in eight days," was not a bluff.
He is indeed looking forward to the red-white battle eight days later!
Michizaburo Chiba can do two things at once, and can do different things with both hands... If he can fight with Michizaburo Chiba, he might be able to turn such a strong talent into his own!
If a talent like Chiba Doisaburo who has already developed extremely superb swordsmanship at a young age does not have the talent of "swordsmanship talent increased XX times that of ordinary people", Qingto would never believe it.
Even if you can't successfully copy the talent of "doing two things at once" from Michizaburo Chiba, you should still be able to get the talent of "increasing your swordsmanship ability".
Anyway, there is no way that a fight with a strong man like Chiba Michisaburo will be fruitless.
Even if we don't mention the utilitarian thing of "copying talent from Chiba Michizaburo", Qingto himself also really wants to see in person this person who is often lamented by people "It's a pity that he has a monster-like second brother, which leads to his own..."
What kind of strength does this young swordsman have?
——We have to wait another 8 days...
Thinking that he would have to wait another 8 days for the battle with Genbukan and Chiba Doisaburo, Qingto couldn't help but feel itchy and unbearable.
At this moment, Qingden didn't realize that while he was talking to Sanako and Chiba Tamonshiro, in the corner of the dojo far away from him, someone was glaring at him with jealous eyes...
…
…
…
After chatting with Sanako, Chiba Tamonshiro and others for a while, Qingto suddenly felt a little anxious.
In order to meet his physiological needs, Qingto had no choice but to say goodbye to Sanako and the others for a while, and quickly walked out of Field B alone and went straight to the toilet in the distance.
I have come to the Little Chiba Sword Hall and rushed through the door countless times. Of course Aoto remembers where every toilet in the Little Chiba Sword Hall is located.
After walking quickly through several corridors, Qingdeng smelled the unique smell of the toilet in just a blink of an eye.
But at this moment, Qingdeng suddenly heard several muffled conversations in a deliberately lowered voice——
"I can't wait any longer. Let's teach that Tachibana Aoden a lesson today."
The first words he heard made Qingdeng stop in his tracks...
…
…
At the corner of a corridor not far from the toilet, five apprentices who specialize in practicing swordsmanship in Field B gathered together.
Their expressions were surprisingly the same - they all had serious faces, with displeasure and resentment flashing in their eyes.
"Why is that Ju Qingden so shameless? He comes to our place every now and then to show his face." A strong man among the five people gritted his teeth.
"I suspect that he deliberately kept his big black cow here so that he could frequently come in and out of the Little Chiba Sword Hall." A dwarf beside the strong man echoed in a deep voice.
"Damn it, did you just see that? That Tachibana Aoden was standing side by side with Miss Chiba just now. The two of them and Chiba Tamonshiro were chatting there." A big man stood opposite the dwarf.
The tall man gritted his teeth.
"How could I not see it!" echoed the tall man, an ugly guy with thin hair.
"Shhh... keep your voice down." The last person among the five people has a decent appearance and a pretty face.
"Damn, the more I think about it, the angrier I get." The ugly guy with thin hair said bitterly, "I suspect that he shows up here so frequently just to pursue Miss Chiba."
"It's also possible that they want to use the huge favor of 'rescuing Miss Chiba' to get close to Master and Shihan on their behalf, and they can climb up the towering tree of the Chiba family." The tall man curled his lips, "Tsk... that guy
But it was just a moment of good luck that rescued Miss Chiba..."
"Anyway..." the strong man lowered his voice very low, "I can't bear it anymore...! Let's teach that bastard a lesson today. Hisaya, Sakurai and Hirose are all at the sword hall today.
, everyone is basically here, there is no more suitable opportunity than today."
"I agree." The short man nodded solemnly, "I can't bear it anymore. When I think of him talking shamelessly to Miss Chiba, I feel so angry that my stomach starts to hurt...!"
"Yeah." The tall man muttered, "Okay, I agree, let's teach that Tachibana Qingden a lesson today."
"Then I will contact Kuya-kun and the others later." The only handsome guy among the five people said solemnly.
"Okay, that's it. We will act according to our predetermined plan later." The thin-haired ugly man clenched his naturally hanging fists, "I will take the lead. If I accidentally lose, I will
When it's your turn to go on stage one by one, I don't believe that guy can stand up to our wheel battle."
"Hmph." The strong man snorted coldly, with strong confidence on his face and words, "That guy just made a great contribution to severely damaging the anti-barbarian group. He may be very proud of it now. He thinks he is already a great person.
He is a master of swordsmanship."
"How can those lowly organized insects like the Yi Group be compared with swordsmen like us from the Little Chiba Sword Hall?" The tall man grinned and agreed with a sneer, "Even if he can fight alone against sixty
A few insects from the anti-barbarian group are evenly matched, and they are bound to be no match for the challenges of more than twenty swordsmen from the Little Chiba Sword Hall."
The five people who were gathering together to discuss "teaching Aoto a lesson" were members of the "Anti-Aoto Alliance" of the Little Chiba Sword Hall.
The main reason why Qingto has frequently been in and out of the Little Chiba Sword Hall during this period is indeed just to visit his big pet who is very humane.
Meeting and chatting with Sanako, Chiba Jutaro and others was just a casual matter.
The purpose of Aoto's frequent visits to the Little Chiba Sword Hall is quite pure, but for some apprentices of the Little Chiba Sword Hall... they don't think so of Aoto's frequent visits to the Little Chiba Sword Hall.
the behavior of.
If Qingteng just came to Xiao Qianba Sword Hall every time he just looked at the cow and left, then most of the apprentices would not have any objections.
But the problem is - every time Aoden comes to Chiba Sword Hall, he always meets and chats with Sanako.
This won't work!
Sanako...is a goddess that countless apprentices of the Little Chiba Sword Hall can only watch from a distance but never play with!
