Chapter Ninety-Three: The Hidden Worries of the First-class Heart?
"Master Noguchi, which secret sword are you talking about?" Although he was quite surprised, it was the first time he had seen this Master Noguchi, and on this occasion, those who were called masters all had the identity of a sword hero, and they didn't even see Aoki Xing meet the sect master, and no one called him a master? But although it was the first time he had seen this Master Noguchi, Yanagi Motowa still answered the master's question gently.
Today is a good day for the opening of the sect hall with a first-class heart, and Yanagi Yuanhe, as the protagonist of today, even if he pretends to be, he has to pretend to be mature and steady, polite, and gentle, after all, he is not standing here as a junior high school student, but the highest teacher who represents the first-class heart of the entire heart.
As a first-class sect master, Aoki Xingmi has been secretly paying attention to Yanagi Yuan and this side, today this young man is the absolute protagonist, but, a fourteen-year-old boy, of course he has nothing to find fault with in kendo, but in terms of interpersonal communication, it still makes Aoki Xingmi a little uneasy, not to mention, Aoki Xingmi's heart is still covered with a layer of clouds.
Therefore, when he saw Master Noguchi walking towards Yanagi Motokazu, Aoki Yukiya hurriedly said 'sorry' to a few people who were gossiping, and hurriedly walked over to this side, just in time to hear Yanagi Motokazu's answer.
Aoki Yukimi hurriedly interjected and said: "Master Noguchi, today is a good day for Yanagi-kun to accept apprentices, if you have any questions and want to communicate, please come to our Aoki Dojo another day, everyone sit down and say slowly, today is not a good occasion to demonstrate kendo." β
"Ahh So, I'll come to the door tomorrow to ask for advice, do you think it's okay?" Noguchi is also a middle-aged handsome guy, but in Yanagi Motokazu's opinion, he and Aoki Yukimi seem to be a little bit of a discord between the two, and when they speak, they feel that both of them are a little smiling.
However, Liu Shengyuan and he didn't know what grievances there were between these two, so it was naturally inconvenient to interject.
Of course, this was not the right time to ask Sect Master Aoki why he was in a hurry to interrupt their conversation in front of Master Noguchi.
So Yanagi Yuanhe didn't speak, and stood aside to wait and see.
"It's not like I just agreed to this matter, Yanagi Fan is participating in the Martial Spirit Duel recently, and he may not be able to find time. Aoki Yukimi replied to Master Noguchi with a smile.
Yanagi Motokazu always felt that Aoki Yukimi seemed to be smiling a little reluctantly.
"Does Liu Shengjun also participate in this year's Martial Soul Duel? That's really a young man, so when does Liu Shengjun think it's more convenient for me to visit? I obey your arrangement!"
"Next week's weekend, the qualifiers for the Martial Soul Duel have ended. My first official match is scheduled for next week's Wednesday, and I'll have some time next weekend, Master Noguchi, do you think that's the right time?"
Yanagi Yuanhe felt that Aoki Yuki's face seemed to be a little wrong, and he didn't know what the problem was, so he deliberately pushed the agreed time back as much as possible, so that there would be about six or seven days in the middle, and even if there was any problem, he could find a way to buffer it.
"Thank you so much, then Yanagi-kun and Aoki-kun, I'll come back next weekend to ask for advice. Noguchi bowed slightly, gracefully took two steps back before turning away and walking towards the rest of the crowd.
"Liu Shengjun, when it's all over, you can stay for a while, I have something to say to you. Looking at Noguchi's back as he turned away, Aoki Yukimi whispered.
ββββββββββββ
Yanagi Yuanhe, as the protagonist of today, can not welcome guests, but the send-off must be delivered to the door.
When the guests left one by one, Yanagi Motohe returned to the first-class sect, and after a while, Aoki Yukimi also walked in, followed by not only the Aoki brothers and sisters, but also the four first-class teachers.
Several people sat in a pavilion shaded by flowers and trees, and the Aoki brothers and sisters stood behind Yanagi Motowa as disciples, but let Daddy Aoki Yukimi sit on the opposite side. However, this is the custom of the Japanese kendo school, in which the relationship between master and apprentice comes first, and then father and son.
"Yanagi-kun, our first-class heart and Master Noguchi's night wind and snow are in it, and there are some historical origins in it. There are many grievances between our two factions, and Master Noguchi may not have a good heart when he asked for advice on kendo. You shouldn't have said yes to him just now. β
"Both the Heart Class and the Night Wind and the Snow Flow were founded by the disciples of the Yagyu Shin Yin Stream who obtained the 'Waiver Certificate', but the founder of the 'Night Wind and Snow Flow' was the famous Ji Samurai Gichiyo in Japanese history, probably because the founder was a woman, and the Night Wind and Snow Flow paid attention to the 'moon and sword, cherry blossom and sword, moon and cherry blossom, and the sword has the beauty of cherry blossoms. β
Well, during the Warring States Period, the daughters or female family members of the Japanese daimyo mostly worshiped the Night Wind and Snow Stream to learn kendo, and there was a time when the Night Wind and Snow Flow did not include male disciples at all.
It is said that the master of Yagyu Shibei Sanyan, who wrote the 'Copy of the Moon', once studied in the night wind and snow.
And our first-class founder, Master Aoki Yukihisa, and Master Gichiyo used to be the same school, and the kendo school concept that was still called Naokinryu at the time of his establishment was 'Heart is like a sword, sword is like a heart, and Heart Sword is like one.' β
Our two schools are both from the new Yin stream of Yanagi, but the concept of kendo is very different, especially later, due to geographical reasons, our two schools are often in different camps, and there are a lot of fights.
This is also counted, in modern times, so many years have passed, those grievances and grievances in history have long been downplayed, in the modern Japanese kendo world, everyone is to inherit the kendo, maintain the country's reputation and fight together, and even my grandfather, and the previous generation of the suzerain of the night wind and snow are still friends of life and death.
It's just that due to the problem of the concept of kendo, the disciples on both sides actually still have some verbal conflicts from time to time.
Seven years ago, when I went to visit an old friend of Night Wind and Snow Stream, I casually said that the inheritance of Night Wind and Snow Flow seemed to be a little incomplete, and for the secret technique of the new Yin Stream, Chaotic Clouds, they got the secret book to be a fake book at all, and there were many mistakes and omissions in it.
Master Noguchi heard thisβhe wasn't a master at the time, and he borrowed from me the secret book of the chaotic clouds that he had kept first-class to study, but probably because he didn't learn it in the end, he always felt that I had kept a hand, and the information was incomplete.
Our first-class chaotic cloud secret book,It's not an ancient book original,It's a photocopy collected through other means.,In the photocopy.,It's true that the last page is missing.,But when this last page was collected.,The original owner explained.,It's actually the back cover of the secret book.,There's nothing on it.,But it's hard to make it clear to Master Noguchi.γ
Today he is not necessarily ill-intentioned, as far as I know, Master Noguchi is still a relatively upright person, maybe he just heard that Yanagi-kun became a 'free to pass on everything', so it is possible to ask you for the true meaning of swordsmanship.
However, if he has malicious intentions, it means that he thinks that Liu Shengjun is so young that it is impossible to master all the secret skills of the first-class heart, and Liu Shengjun's 'Exemption is not true', and he wants to make us ugly through the advice of the sword!"
Aoki Xingjian said this, looked at Yanagi Yuanhe, paused and continued: "This place is now my own people, I might as well say it bluntly, in order to let the fourteen-year-old Yanagi Shengjun be qualified to participate in the Sword Hero Examination, I reported his status as a first-class 'Exemption from Inheritance', only in this way can the masters of the Sword Heroes Association not be able to directly refuse him to participate in the Sword Hero Examination on the grounds of Liu Shengjun's age."
However, if someone asks Yanagi-kun for advice with a first-class secret sword, if Yanagi-kun can't answer it, this lie will be exposed. Originally, I thought that within the first-class heart, it would be easy to do anything, and outside of the first-class heart, the disciples of other kendo schools would not have the opportunity to ask Liu Shengjun for our first-class secret sword, but the night wind and snow flow have a deep relationship with our first-class heart, but there are a few secret swords that are shared by both sides.
If we privately violate the tradition of the kendo world and grant Yanagi-kun the 'exemption from all the passes' to be exposed, it will be a huge damage to the reputation of our first-class heart, who has just improved a little, and cannot withstand this kind of blow. Therefore, I decided that if I couldn't cover it up, I would take the responsibility and resign from the position of sect master and become a teacher. β
Everyone present fell silent, in fact, this is not a solution at all, it's just that Aoki Yuki, as the sect master, has taken this dishonorable responsibility.
Liu Shengyuanhe looked at it, and the four teachers sitting around did not speak, all of them had heavy faces, and the atmosphere in the pavilion was depressed for a while.
Yanagi Yuanhe suddenly laughed: "Uncle Aoki, I thought it was a big deal, it turns out that this is the matter, this matter is easy to solve, I will take some time these days to take a look at the first-class secret sword information, you don't have to worry." β
"Liu Shengjun, are you still young, or do you not know much about the rules of the kendo world, how important is 'Wai Zhi Chuan 'Wai Zhi Chuan 'Everywhere Permitted' to a school?
It's not something that can be recognized just by putting on a sword frame. Sitting next to Aoki Yuki, the oldest teacher, Nishimura Jiucheng, shook his head and said in a deep voice.
Several other teachers also nodded in agreement, and even the Aoki brothers and sisters standing behind Yanagi also nodded, obviously thinking that Yanagi Yuanhe had regarded the 'Waiver of Everything' as too simple.
Hearing this answer, Yanagi Yuanhe was not only not discouraged, but laughed out loud: "Hahahaha, Nishimura Teaching, please rest assured, I think, I should be able to make people unable to find fault."
Even if I take 10,000 steps back, some people accuse me of demonstrating the wrong swordsmanship, not the correct secret sword, and different from the swordsmanship that everyone knows. Then I simply said, 'This is the secret sword in my understanding!' You don't know it, it's just that you have shallow knowledge and wrong understanding, and the secret sword I demonstrated to you is the correct one!'
If there are still people who insist on questioning, that is, if they don't give me 'no permission' and face, I will directly challenge on the spot and use my sword to distinguish who is right!"
The eyes of several of the instructors present, including Sect Master Aoki Yukimi, lit up.
This almost rogue method, in their opinion, will definitely work!
Japanese kendo focuses on actual combat and worships the strong, and the most powerful voice in the kendo world is made by the sword, not by the mouth.
If you can't beat others, you still insist on saying that you are right, which is unthinkable in the Japanese kendo world.
Taking the battle of the fall of the New Yin Stream as an example, in the upper class of Japan at that time, the people who practiced the Living Sword of the Inner Gate of the New Yin Stream, except for the Yanagi family, were all upper-class nobles with names and surnames, and no matter how bad they were, they had to be the children of top wealthy merchants.
However, such a huge potential force of the new Yin Stream Inner Gate, under the First World War, still collapsed in just a few years, no one can save it, even if there were three swordsmen in the New Yin Stream Inner Gate at that time were useless, why? It is because in the pre-imperial trial, in front of everyone's eyes, the outer disciples used their swords to prove that the so-called 'Sword of No Killing' transcendent intention, the so-called New Yin Stream Inner Gate swordsmanship is a scam at all, and the 'living sword' of the inner door is a shelf!
In the Japanese kendo world, you can't beat others, whether you are an inner door or not, you are not authentic, it is useless to say a thousand ways and ten thousand, otherwise, there has been no first-class heart of a sword hero for more than ten years, why is everyone worried from the sect master to the teaching?
If it weren't for the fact that he was forced to starve, Aoki Yukimi could see Yanagi and such a fourteen-year-old child, and as soon as he found out that his kendo level was amazing, he immediately roared like a vicious dog saw a bone, and urgently recommended him to participate in the sword test, and even did not hesitate to fake to get him a name of 'free to pass it on'? You must know that at that time, Yanagi Shengyuan and they had not known each other for a long time.
It's really Aoki Yukimi who has been forced to the edge of the cliff in recent years, don't look at the first-class heart is still a big business, in fact, it is already in danger, as long as there is a little spark, it is possible to ignite the flame of destruction.
But in other words, no one dares to refute what the kendo is strong, after all, in the end, it is very likely that the real sword will be opposed, and the sword will be used to prove who is right, and if you don't have that level, don't make a voice of rebuttal.
Therefore, when Liu Shengyuan said this sentence with confidence, everyone laughed, indeed, this method can definitely stop the mouths of the vast majority of people in the kendo world.
According to Yanagi Yuanhe's method, unless the swordsmen who created these secret swords are resurrected on the spot, they are qualified to question the authenticity of Yanagi Yuanhe's secret swords without defeating Yanagi Yuanhe. Otherwise, in the Japanese kendo world, no matter who it is, there is no way to question the winner.
ββββββββββββ
"Ahem, today is not a formal class, I can only say that I will show you all kinds of secret swords with first-class hearts, so that everyone has a bottom in their hearts, and they are willing to learn those swordsmanship, male classmates, uh, no, male disciples go to Aoki Ryoji to summarize it, and female disciples go to Aoki Ejin's place to register.
In the future, in addition to the big class, I will call everyone to come together, and talk about my kendo philosophy and basic exercise methods, and the other is special guidance for individuals, because everyone's kendo foundation and physical conditions are different, I will guide them according to different situations, and will assign everyone's practice homework, if you can't complete it, there will be punishment, everyone must be mentally prepared!
There are a total of 214 secret swords in the heart first-class, the earliest secret sword was inherited by Master Aoki Xingjiu four hundred years ago, and the most recent secret sword was added by Master Aoki Xingfeng twenty-one years ago.
Below I will demonstrate the first-class secret sword in chronological order, from which you should be able to see some of the development of the first-class sword, of course, I will also do a certain explanation, but because of time constraints, it is forbidden to ask questions today. β
Yanagi Yuanhe stood in the largest kendo room in the inner dojo of the heart first-class inner dojo, giving lectures to his nine disciples. When it comes to lecturing, he doesn't have much experience, so the way he speaks now is not much different from the way teachers give lectures in school.
This is already the third day after the apprenticeship ceremony, and as a teacher, even if you don't take your disciples to exercise every day, you can't always skip seeing each other, right?
So under the urging of Aoki Yukimi and others, Yanagi Motowa, who hadn't figured out how to teach his disciples, had no choice but to bite the bullet and drive the ducks to the shelves.
Since it was a hurried duck to the shelves, Yanagi Yuanhe, who was not ready to teach, of course, had some unnatural expressions, but fortunately, Yanagi Yuanhe and Master Noguchi, who was going to come to the door on the weekend in the past few days, specially flipped through the first-class secret sword inheritance materials, and found that the 'chaotic clouds' that Master Noguchi was most likely to ask for advice did not belong to the first-class inheritance of the heart at all, it was the swordsmanship of the new Yin Stream,
In other words, even if Yanagi Yuanhe doesn't 'mess with clouds' along the way, he can't prove anything.
In order to cover up that he is not good at teaching, Liu Shengyuanhe put forward 'forbidden questions' very bluntly, which means that whatever Lao Tzu says is what it is, you scum just listen to it, don't chirp crookedly.
Originally, even if this could fool these disciples, they would naturally be able to do more when teaching one-on-one in the future, but what did these five people standing by the wall do, staring at each other with their eyes and ears pricked up, they were more engrossed than the two rows of students in front of them!
