I really am a celestial master

"Couldn't be the maiden of our Musashi country who shot the wind demon with an arrow?"

"Yes."

Kurosawa Zaemon hurriedly arranged his clothes, and bowed politely:

"It turned out to be Miss Kikyo, I was really rude just now, please forgive me."

As a privileged samurai, it is incredible to salute a commoner woman, but the witch herself represents the son of the god of communication.In this Warring States era where demons and monsters were infested, powerful maidens, samurai, and onmyojis were all worthy of respect. To a maiden who was one of the best in strength like Kikyo, it is not a joke to suppress a country by one person, if it weren't cultivated by Ise Shrine. The identity of the person is supernatural, and the master of Musashi, who has a height of 670,000 shi, is afraid that he wants to visit the cottage.

Kikyo did not feel strange because of being ignored, she stood up and bowed slightly in return:

"Master Kurosawa is too polite. Kikyo is just a civilian, please don't be so."

Kurosawa was about to say something when suddenly there were some chaotic sounds outside the window, which attracted the eyes of Kou Ziqing and Kikyo.

Chapter 10 Things are not simple

On the street, the people who were doing their own things seemed to be attracted by something. It seemed that there was something worth watching. Kou Ziqing's eyes fell in the middle of the crowd, but the men in samurai suits were facing each other, their eyes full of killing. meaning.

"this is……"

"This is a duel."

Kurosawa Zaemon walked forward, took a look at the two samurai, and said the answer as usual. Kou Ziqing suddenly, yes, this is the Warring States period, and the sword-dial duel is the same as the gun-dial duel in the Western era. , Perhaps because people have become accustomed to life and death, but are very interested in witnessing life and death, so as soon as they saw someone fighting, they immediately watched.

"Does the guards in the city care about such things?"

Kou Ziqing asked, Blackpool shook his head and said:

"The duel between the samurai is very sacred, and it is also a shortcut to prove their bravery, especially for these lower-level samurai who don't even have a surname. If they are favored by a nobleman like the city lord, then there is a chance to make progress. Even if they are unfavorable, some wealthy people like to hire them."

Kou Ziqin nodded. In addition to being motivated, the so-called duel is actually more of a fame than Huashan Lunjian. If you can always win all battles, your fame will spread. Of course, some people are really pursuing breakthroughs. , To stimulate the potential of the body with this life and death duel.

At this time, the two samurai underneath reported their names to each other and the duel began. The two men were about the same strength. They saw the shadows of swords, lights and swords. The clanging sound was as endless as rain hitting a lute. All kinds of sparks splashed around. It's like watching the Colosseum, it's all eager to cheer.

"It's really twisted... Is the katana so strong? It can be cut against each other for so long."

Kou Ziqing murmured, and Kikyo said:

"These two people are both swordsmen who have entered the door, and they have a bit of sword aura. This level of strength can also defeat a few inferior monsters."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a scream. One of them was shot down with a samurai sword. The next moment he was shot directly by the head. The blood in his body spurted out and splashed on the crowd of onlookers. The crowd exclaimed in exclamation. Collecting the blood, Kou Ziqing saw a child who dipped the bun in his hand and ate it.

"..."

Kou Ziqing saw the brutality and bloody of the Warring States Period at this moment, and Kikyo turned his head and said:

"Working hard for more than ten years, but blood was spilled on the streets."

Kurosawa didn't think there was anything, and said:

"A duel is like a battlefield. It is also an honor for a warrior to die in such a place. There is a saying called Shroud of Horses. Someone will collect his body for him."

"Isn't it good to use this kind of power to protect my family? People who can practice out of breath are not comparable to ordinary people, but unfortunately this power is useless at all."

Kurosawa was a little disapproved when he heard Kikyo’s words. The purpose of martial arts training is to get ahead. With status and strength, he will be able to shine through the ancestors. The swordsman is also born in duels. The strength of their hundred people can not be achieved by hard practice. .

Kou Ziqing understands Kikyo's thoughts. For Kikyo, power is a thing to guard, not this kind of unnecessary fighting between humans.However, the Warring States period was originally a fight between people and nations, and even if demons were mixed in, it was only an embellishment under the background of this era. It was not until a few decades later that three outstanding figures who gathered Japan’s fortunes for hundreds of years appeared. It was only after completing my mission that it brought hundreds of years of stability to Japan.

"Kiji, what is qi? Is it the power of blood you said?"

The bloody scene of the duel just now made Kou Ziqing a bit disgusting, and he didn't even look at how it ended. He felt that he didn't even have much appetite.Kikyo nodded and said:

"Because the power of the samurai swordsman looks similar to the demon power of the demon, they use Qi to describe it in order to distinguish."

"So, Kikyo, although the spiritual power and Qi cultivation methods are different, they are both human soul power at the root. So how do you distinguish your own strength? Is there no realm?"

Kou Ziqing couldn't help asking that there is no realm in Inuyasha's original work, so that the strength depends on the plot and brain supplement. This makes Kou Ziqing a little uncomfortable. I don't know if the props will change after the actualization. Kikyo was stunned to explain. The Tao:

"In terms of realm, because the theory of four souls is popular in our country, it is generally divided into four levels."

"That's it."

Kou Ziqing was stunned. At this time, Blackpool said:

"Samurai is actually based on strength. If one person can kill ten people in one battle, he can be called a swordsman. On this basis, every step forward is very difficult. If you can complete a hundred people His great deeds can be called a swordsman."

"Oh, is there a Juggernaut?"

"Yes, but the sword saint is more of an honorary title, although it is indeed higher than the sword hero, but the real sword saint is probably going to be able to compete with a thousand troops alone. At present, there is no such strong in the East and the West.

"What is the standard for the so-called ten-man beheading? Is it possible to kill a mob?"

"Of course not, it must be elite. I am the master of Musashi, with a height of 670,000. I don't know if I can support a real army of thousands of people. Of course, this is directly under his control. There are quite a few people who send out the army to help, and also recruit farmers as a minor plus."

In the Warring States Period, the lord of a country was actually the biggest name, and then the territories were assigned to the following. In addition to actually facing the country-to-country battle, otherwise they would really be in charge of their own, and they would attack each other and even defeat each other. Instead, this is different from the princes of the Zhou Dynasty in China, but similar to the landlord, and the so-called soldiers are equivalent to the courtyard.The cost of raising professional soldiers is very expensive, so some small-scale conflicts, such as bandits, are just the landlord asking his tenants to fight.

Think about some powerful monsters in the Inuyasha world at every turn slaughtering villages and then destroying an army. It makes people feel that human army is vulnerable to a blow. In fact, it is mainly because most of such troops are not real soldiers, Japan. There is no military inheritance, and no one knows how to cultivate the evil spirit and the military strength, these two are the weapons for ordinary people to restrain monsters.

"Teached, Kurosawa-kun, I think you are also extraordinary. Maybe you will be a swordsman in the future."

Kou Ziqing complimented Kurosawa, and Kurosawa Zaemon said modestly:

"I'm still far behind. Actually, I prefer to read essays than martial arts, but my talent is limited. Miss Kikyo is the real powerhouse. I am afraid that she is close to the real sword master in reducing demons and slaying demons."

At this time, Xiao Er also began to serve food. He saw Kurosawa's left doorman hurriedly saluting, and Kurosawa left doorman saw Kou Ziqing want to eat and put it. Then he said:

"I have invited this meal today, please don't dislike Miss Kikyo and Ikuyo-kun. I am really glad to meet you by chance."

Kou Ziqing quickly thanked him:

"Thank you, Kurosawa-kun, maybe there is one thing that needs to trouble you. The purpose of teacher Kikyo and I came to the city is actually to buy some literacy books as enlightenment materials, but I don't know if there are bookstores in the city. "

"A literate textbook?"

Kurosawa froze for a moment and said:

"There are still bookstores. As for the textbook "Thousand Characters", is it possible? There is also the "Sanzi Jing" which is more popular in Ming Dynasty."

Kou Ziqing’s eyes brightened. The "Three Characters", "Hundred Family Names" and "Thousand Characters Wen" are collectively called "Three Hundred Thousands", also known as "Sanjia Village". It is the first book of traditional Chinese enlightenment education. It is very well-known. Everyone knows it well.

"If there are three hundred thousand, please give me all of them."

"Okay, I'll let someone do it."

Kurosawa didn't ask why, this little thing is nothing to him. He is a samurai with the ability to pass all the promises, and he has been yearning for the Tang culture. He is considered a high-ranking samurai in the name of the city lord. He has hereditary territory, far beyond the comparison of ordinary samurai.

Kou Ziqing did not expect to read a poem to solve a good relationship, but he had a good feeling for Kurosawa Zuomen. He invited Kurosawa to have dinner with him. Kurosawa Zuomen was very moved. After all, he is so powerful and powerful as Kikyo. It's a beautiful thing to eat with beautiful maidens, but after thinking about it, he refused. As a person with sight, he felt that Ikuyo-kun was just a polite.
