Chapter 46 Ju Qing Deng won Zhuge Kongming's unique skills!
"Oh oh..."
"Awesome...beautiful technique..."
"What kind of martial art is this? It doesn't look like jujitsu."
…
As Shusuke said just now - in this era, there are very few samurai who are proficient in unarmed combat.
The samurai of this era were generally keen on practicing the use of weapons such as swordsmanship, spearmanship, and archery, and did not attach much importance to bare-handed combat.
After Aomori subdued Kondo with his neat movements, the apprentices sitting on the edge of the dojo who had rarely seen such high-quality bare-handed martial arts marveled and commented.
The apprentices around him were marveling, and Qingdeng was also marveling - marveling in his heart.
Hey guys, I won the jackpot again!
After the system tone in his mind fell, Qingden hurriedly brought up his personal system interface.
【Name: Tachibana Aoden】(?)
[Talents currently possessed:]
[Night Vision, The Talent of the Sword, The God of Sleep, The Lonely Person]
At the end of the talent list, there are two large Chinese characters for "Gudan".
The more enemies there are and the stronger they are, the more they will be able to ignite their fighting spirit and use their own strength to an extraordinary extent... This is another talent that makes you feel very awesome just by looking at the introduction.
When the "radical anti-barbarian faction" kills people, they often attack in groups.
He would dispatch several people at once to besiege someone's family, and rarely fight alone.
Being able to obtain this kind of talent that can make Qingdeng stronger when encountering strong ones, for Qingdeng, can be regarded as a timely help.
Before Qingdeng had time to savor the joy of winning another jackpot and acquiring a new powerful talent, Zhou Zhu's old voice reached Qingdeng's ears.
“Nice technique!”
Zhousuke, who had a warm smile on his face, stood up from the first seat of the dojo while clapping his hands, and walked slowly towards Qingden.
"Ji Jun, what kind of martial art did you use just now? It looks a bit like jujitsu, but it feels very different from jujitsu."
"This is a martial art passed down from generation to generation in our family." Qingdeng lied skillfully.
"Hoo hoo ho..." Zhou Assistant raised his hand and touched his bare chin, "Your family has a very outstanding unarmed fighting technique..."
"If I read it correctly... the martial arts technique passed down by your family specifically targets joints, acupuncture points and vital parts of the human body, right?"
"Exactly." Qingdeng's brows jumped in surprise.
Zhoushu continued with a smile:
"Yong just lost because you took advantage of the weakness of his joints."
"The arms are locked in a position where it is difficult to exert force. As a result, no amount of strength can be exerted."
Looking at Zhouzhu talking eloquently in front of him, Qingden's eyes kept shining with surprise.
This old man actually only briefly looked at the sparring between him and Kondo, and he saw clearly the characteristics of the grapple he just used, and why Kondo lost to him...
"Hoo hoo ho... Mr. Ju, you are much more powerful than I thought."
After saying that, Zhouzhu put his hands behind his back.
"Yong, bring me two bamboo swords."
Kondo is still squeezing and relaxing his arms, which were still aching from being held by Qingto just now.
After listening to Shusuke's order, Kondo didn't know why, but he immediately respectfully said "yes", then quickly took two bamboo swords and handed them to Shusuke.
After receiving the two bamboo swords handed over by Kondo, Shusuke briefly weighed them for a while, then threw one of the bamboo swords to Aomori.
"Come on, Tachibana-kun."
Zhou Assistant smiled and held the sword in front of him.
"Next... let me see how good your swordsmanship is."
…
…
At this moment——
"Hey, did you know? The murderer of Granny Ping was caught by the 'Sanchai' of Beifansuo in less than an hour!"
"Not even an hour?"
"Yes, it is said that the case was solved by a Sadaimachi man named Tachibana Aoden from the Northern Police Station."
…
Due to the limited technical level of criminal investigation, it is very common for a case to be investigated for 1, 2 months, or even several months.
It only took less than an hour to solve the case - this kind of thing was completely anecdotal in the Edo period.
…
"The murderer has been captured by the "Three Chapters" of Beifan Station. Granny Ping should be able to rest in peace..."
"Grandma Ping is so kind! My son was seriously ill a few years ago and had no money for medical treatment. Grandma Ping and his wife saved my son by giving him free medical treatment! Which beast killed Grandma Ping?!"
"It is said that he is Grandma Ping's childhood sweetheart: Xun Sanlang."
"Xun Saburo? Isn't that guy always honest? How could he kill someone?"
"Who knows, I know the person but not the heart."
…
Granny Ping has a high reputation. In the Koyanagi Town alone, more than half of the people have been helped by the couple. They cannot remain indifferent to Granny Ping's murder.
In modern terms, Grandma Ping's murder case is one of those "high-profile events" that attracts a lot of attention.
Since the American black ship fleet came to the border seven years ago, almost nothing good has happened in this country.
The 12th generation shogun Tokugawa Ieyei died of illness, and the 13th generation shogun Tokugawa Iesada who succeeded him was mentally retarded. In order to decide who would succeed the 14th generation shogun, the Nanki faction and the Hitotsubashi faction fought endlessly, and finally two
The struggle to send people has finally come to an end, but the power minister style of the elder Ii Naobi has begun to arouse the dissatisfaction of many people, including Tianzhangyuan...
Even if we ignore these things in the temple, there are countless bad things in the market.
The increasingly sluggish economy, the riots of "radical anti-barbarians", and the surge in unemployment caused by social unrest...
In a nutshell: In the past few years, the atmosphere permeating the air in Edo has been unprecedentedly depressing.
It only took less than an hour for the "three rounds" of the Beifan Institute to solve such a high-profile case - this can be regarded as the "underworld news" that has not been seen in the past few years and can make people feel excited.
Already.
The rare "news from the earthly world" gave people an outlet for their long-suppressed emotions.
So - the strange news that the case was solved in less than an hour + the solved case attracted a lot of attention + the people's long-suppressed emotions were in urgent need of venting = a wonderful chemical reaction occurred, and a huge number of people spontaneously joined the discussion on related topics.
In the past two days, with Koyanagi Town as the center, more and more people have begun to discuss this murder case that just ended not long ago.
In this era, due to insufficient basic education, people are generally not very smart and have little judgment. Therefore, all kinds of random rumors spread at an almost eerie speed in these two days...
…
"Hey, have you heard about it? It seems that Tongxin, who caught the beast who killed Granny Ping, has not performed very well in Beifansuo before. It is said that he is also known as 'Silly Head Deng'."
"Then how did he suddenly become so powerful?"
"Who knows, maybe it's because of working hard and tempering myself."
…
"Hey, have you heard? That Ju Qingden seemed to have entered Granny Ping's house. After studying the crime scene carefully for a while, he knew who killed Granny Ping."
"What? How?"
"Who knows! The execution office will probably announce how Tachibana Aoden arrested him later."
…
"Hey, have you heard? That Tachibana Aoshinobo is a very strong-minded person! He has always been a very bad Sadauchei Doshin before, so he was nicknamed 'Silly Noboru'
, but he has been studying hard, tempering his body and mind, and finally caught up, so he was able to solve today's case so beautifully."
"Oh! That's amazing! I didn't expect that in this day and age, there are still warriors with such backbone and energy!"
…
"Hey, have you heard about it? It seems that Ju Qingden just entered Granny Ping's house and casually glanced at the crime scene to know who killed Granny Ping. From the beginning to the end, he only knew who killed Granny Ping.
I stayed at home for less than half a stick of incense."
"Huh? Why did I hear that Ju Qingden didn't even enter Grandma Ping's house?"
…
"Hey, have you heard about it? It seems that Ju Qingden didn't even enter Granny Ping's house! He just stood outside the crime scene and listened to the reports of the case by his own investigators, and then he deduced who the culprit was."
"Yes, yes, I heard the same thing. He solved the case without even entering Grandma Ping's house!"
…
"Hey, have you heard about it? That Tachibana Aoden..."
…
"Hey, have you heard about it? That Tachibana Aoden..."
…
"Hey, have you heard about it? That Tachibana Aoden..."
…
Edo, a certain town, outside a certain confectionery shop——
Okita hates the behavior of going to crime scenes...especially going to murder scenes to join in the fun.
They gathered around the crime scene as if they were watching a play, standing on tiptoes and craning their necks to watch...
What’s there to see?!
Have you considered the feelings of the victim’s relatives and friends...
It's so disgusting...this kind of behavior that ignores the feelings of the victim's relatives and friends...
Therefore, two days ago, after learning that a murder had occurred in Koyanagi Town next door, Okita did not run over to join in the fun like those busybodies.
After watching Aoshito leave, Okita stayed at the tea house and continued to enjoy his favorite steamed buns with red bean paste.
After finishing the steamed buns, he silently returned to the trial clinic alone, and did not pay attention to Granny Ping's case after that.
Okita is a serious sweet tooth.
After a day without Jinping candy, I felt uncomfortable all over.
After seeing that there were not many Jinping candies stored at home last night, he rushed to the snack shop he often frequented early this morning to buy his "daily necessities".
But his luck doesn't seem to be very good today.
After Okita arrived at the confectionery shop he often visited, all the Jinpei candies in the store were sold out.
Okita only loves to eat the Jinpei Candy baked by this confectionery shop, so he can only wait patiently in the store for the store to bake a new batch of Jinpei Candy.
In order to pass the boring waiting time, Okita stood outside the snack shop and took out a small stack of paper from his arms.
Let’s study arithmetic!
The small stack of paper that Okita took out from his arms was filled with dense handwriting - all the arithmetic problems he had asked Hijikata Toizo, who had a good arithmetic level, to help him draw up.
Hijikata Toshizo once told him before: To learn arithmetic well, it is necessary to practice a lot.
Therefore, in order to practice arithmetic in large quantities, Okita pestered Hijikata Toshizo for a long time before he finally agreed to help formulate questions suitable for Okita to practice.
When Okita first asked Toshizo Hijikata to help him formulate the topic, he was reluctant in every possible way and said it was "too much trouble."
But after Okita's various entanglements, he finally agreed to Okita's request. He became extra serious and helped Okita write down arithmetic problems that filled several large sheets of paper.
Okita turned over the small pile of paper in his hand and found a question that he had not done yet.
As soon as his eyes caught sight of the new question, Okita's delicate eyebrows immediately frowned, and his expression changed to this: (′?ω?｀)
[Soji, you now have 39 Jinping candies, and I have 27 Jinping candies. I will give you all my Jinping candies. How many Jinping candies do you have now? 】
Both the tone and content of the question are full of Mr. Hijikata’s style.
39 Jinpingtang...well...a pair of palms has 10 fingers, 39 is 3 pairs of palms plus 9 fingers!
27 golden candies are 2 pairs of palms and 7 fingers!
Perhaps it's because he is standing next to the snack shop and can smell the sweet and greasy smell all the time. Okita feels that his mind is very bright now! His thoughts are very smooth!
In great condition!
Well! Good! Feeling great now! I should get it right this time!
With a smug smile on his face, he continued to brainstorm.
39 plus 27...that's 3 pairs of palms and 9 fingers plus 2 pairs of palms and 7 fingers...
Okita, who felt that his thoughts were running smoothly today, shouted excitedly in his heart:
(≧?≦)103 in total!
Okita proudly turned his gaze to the next question...
But at this moment——
"Did you hear about it? A murder case in Kilianagi Town the day before yesterday was solved by the "Three Chapters" of the North Division in less than an hour."
"Well, I heard that a Tongxin with the nickname 'Stupid Head' from Sada Town was defeated in less than an hour, right? What was Tongxin's name?
"
"Ju Qingden."
"Oh, yes, it's Tachibana Aoden."
A string of dialogue suddenly came from beside him, which made Okita stunned. It was difficult not to pay attention to it...
The hosts of the conversation were two uncles who were standing not far from the dim sum shop, each holding a glutinous rice dumpling and chewing on it. They looked like idle members of society.
One of the uncles stuffed all the glutinous rice dumplings in his hand into his mouth, lowered his voice, and said in a deep voice to his companion opposite him as if he was telling a little secret:
"Hey, have you heard? That Ju Qingden is said to have mastered Zhuge Kongming's secret technique of finger counting!"
...Zhuge Kongming?!
Okita's expression at this time changed to this: Σ(°Д°;)...
