Chapter Eighty-Eight: Weapons
Until he returned to his office, Yanagi was still a little unsettled, something that had never happened since he had practiced. It seems that the so-called 'Mount Tai collapsed in front and did not change its face', probably because the collapse of Mount Tai actually has nothing to do with itself.
Professor Sawada's statement just now is indeed very tempting, if you can set up a research team dedicated to your own service, monitor your physical condition at any time, and adjust the type and dosage of drugs in real time, you will definitely be able to use drugs more safely and smoothly to assist your practice.
Such a scientific research team of national experts is at the service of a single person, even as a national leader β and of course, a guinea pig.
However, in this way, your body data will be completely transparent.
What's more, Liu Shengyuan and the discipline of scientists are really a little bit unconvinced.
It's not entirely because of the bad impression of the mad scientist left on TV and the movie - of course, there is no denying that there is a certain influence in it.
Since he joined the Jianhao Club, several scientists from the human body movement project team he has seen are usually fine, but when it comes to professional topics, these people begin to look fanatical as they talk, and Yanagi Motokazu doesn't know if this is a characteristic of Japanese scientists? Or are all scientists this virtue. There is only one step between a genius and a madman, and in Yanagi Yuanhe's opinion, even if these scientists are not geniuses, it is estimated that they are no more than two steps away from a madman.
Liu Shengyuanhe believes that as long as there are enough interests - whether it is economic interests and political interests, or scientific research interests - he is a powerless little swordman, these scientists try drugs by themselves, and it is estimated that there is no psychological pressure at all.
Moreover, the craziest companies in the world are not those high-tech scientific research enterprises, but various pharmaceutical groups.
Large pharmaceutical companies develop a new drug, often invest more than one billion US dollars, and the research and development cycle of three years is less, as long as it is related to the new drug, in this world, it represents almost astronomical benefits.
What's more, what he pursues is immortality, if there is really a breakthrough, not to mention that he is a little swordsman, even if he is the president of the United States, he may be put on the experimental bench, anyway, the previous presidents of the United States, there are more than one who died unexplained.
Yanagi felt that if he promised Professor Sawada that if these scientists wanted to sell him, it would not be strange that he would be sold and help them count the money in terms of the IQ gap between the two sides.
"Teacher, teacher?"
"Ryoji, what's wrong?" Ryoji Aoki shouted softly as he stood in front of his desk.
"Master Mingshan is here, and he has sent over the weapons and armor you customized to use to participate in the Martial Spirit Duel. β
"Ahh
"Master Mingshan is sitting in the reception room downstairs, originally he wanted to send your things and leave, but I heard that you happened to be in the Jianhao Club today, he said to wait for you to come back and see you before leaving. β
"Hurry up, please come up, forget it, I'll go by myself, otherwise it's a bit rude. Motokazu Yanagi put Professor Sawada's proposal behind him and walked out of the office quickly.
"Master Mingshan, I'm sorry to keep you waiting, I'm sorry, I went to the project team laboratory building in the back just now. β
As soon as he entered the reception room of the Sword Heroes Club, Yanagi Yuanhe saw a beautiful wooden box placed on a long wooden table. Master Mingshan was sitting on the side, leisurely drinking hot tea, and there were two young men sitting behind him, probably Master Mingshan's assistant or disciple.
"Master Yanagi, you're here, haha, it's okay, it's okay, I didn't wait long, these are my two sons, the main thing is that the two of them want to see what the youngest swordsman in Japanese history looks like, and my old man is cheeky to stay, Master Yanagi don't be surprised!"
"It turned out to be the two sons of Master Mingshan, disrespectful and disrespectful. What do I have to look at, just like everyone else, two arms and two legs!"
"Who are the two sons?" Although Yanagi is not good at socializing, basic etiquette is still necessary.
"This is my eldest son Mingshan Tieyan, and here is my third son Mingshan Tieshu. β
"Ah, dare to ask Master Mingshan how many children do you have?" Liu Shengyuan and look at this sword-casting master with a little Mediterranean hairstyle, this old man is quite blessed!
"Hehe, I have a total of four children, two boys and two girls, as well as the second daughter Mingshantan and the youngest daughter Mingshan Jiahua. Master Mingshan looked very proud when he talked about his children.
"βMingshan Jiahua, isn't your youngest daughter studying in Kangtian School Park?" Yanagi Yuanhe was taken aback when he heard this familiar name.
"How do you know?" Master Mingshan was also taken aback.
"Hahaha, she's the president of our class! You go back and mention Yanagi Yuanhe to her, and she'll know. "This world is really small, and if you customize some weapons, you can meet the parents of your classmates.
"Ah, Master Yanagi, are you only in your second year of junior high school?" said Mingshan Tetsuki, who was sitting in the back, and he looked a little reserved.
"Yes, I went back to school a few days ago, and I saw Mingshan Jiahua in the class, and now she is doing a good job as the class president, and she is still a cadre of the student union. "Since there is this relationship, everyone will be intimate when they speak, this Mingshan Tieshu, strictly speaking, he has to call him a senior, but in the Sword Hao Club, of course, no one will be blind to Liu Shengyuanhe in front of any senior.
"Haha, since it's Jiahua's classmate, it's really not an outsider, but I know that Master Yanagi is young, but I didn't expect to be so young!
"Okay, Master Yanagi, you first see if these weapons are satisfied, if there is anything that is not smooth, there are still a few days before the martial soul duel starts, I will quickly go back and help you modify it." β
As he spoke, Master Mingshan stood up and wanted to open the wooden box on the table.
"I'll do it myself, thank you, Master Mingshan!" Yanagi Yuanhe reached out and grabbed the handle of the box and lifted the box over.
"Ao, by the way, this is Aoki Ryoji, who is my disciple, Master Mingshan, do you know each other?"
While opening the box, Liu Shengyuan remembered that he hadn't introduced his disciple yet, so he let him stand behind him alone, which was a little rude, and said in passing.
"Ha, of course we know Aoki-kun, and he was the one who received us just now. Master Yanagi, don't you want to try these swords?" Master Mingshan asked, looking at Yanagi Yuanhe and opening the lid of the box.
In the exquisitely carved wooden box, there are four katanas and a long sword, embedded in the carved grooves in the wooden box.
Yanagi Motowa didn't pick up the katana, but first took out the long sword and held it in his hand.
When he picked up this sword, he felt a lot of emotion in his heartβthe Eight Desolations Rampant Sword, the White Rainbow Piercing Sun Swordβwhich were the melee weapons he had used in virtual combat in his previous life, and now he was just one Split Array Spear away.
These weapons can be reproduced in reality, especially if they can really use these martial arts like in a virtual game, looking back on the past and present lives, it's like a dream.
Of course, the style of the Eight Desolations Rampant Knife is not the look of 'washing snow', but now I rely on kendo to mix rice, and it is not suitable to make a narrow bladed long knife in the style of the Ming Dynasty, so let's take the 'washing snow' general, anyway, 'washing snow' is also quite easy to use.
Reaching out and gently touching the tip of the sword from the hilt of the sword, the real sword and the virtual weapon feel really different, a feeling of solidity, straightness, rather bending, and standing up to the sky and the earth rises from the bottom of his heart, which is his understanding of the sword, and it is also his feeling of the sword.
The invisible internal strength swept through the sword body, and you can feel that the material of the sword body is quite evenly distributed, with a regular beauty, and its toughness and strength are far better than ordinary swords, with a denser and stronger surface material on the blade and tip.
This sword does not have the beautiful appearance of other swords, the sword body in front of it is a simple four-sided sword body, and when it reaches the hilt, the sword body gradually rises from flat and plump, and after a short transition, it becomes a cylindrical hilt, and the sword body and the hilt are completely integrated, and there is no sword guard (handguard) in the middle at all, just like an iron rod, which flattens the front section and beats it into the shape of the sword body.
Gently rubbing the simple form of the long sword in his hand, Yanagi was silent for a long time. And without anyone knowing, the formless and qualitative internal energy fluctuates layer by layer in the sword body, like a tide washing back and forth, and at this moment, he seems to feel something, but he can't touch or grasp it.
Master Mingshan thought about a lot of Yanagi and how he would react when he saw the weapons he made, such as a few words of praise, picking out some problems, asking for revisions, and so on.
I didn't expect that the youngest swordsman in Japanese history would fall into some kind of dementia?
The room was quiet for a while, only Liu Shengyuan and the long sword in his hand were caressing.
"Master Yanagi, Master Yanagi?" After a while, Master Mingshan saw that no one opened his mouth to break the silence, and here he was the highest and the most qualified, and only he spoke.
"Ahh "Liu Shengyuan and reacted, there are so many people in the house.
"What does Master Yagyu remember?"
"Some of the past is not a big deal. Yanagi didn't want to say more and avoided the topic.
"Master Yagyu, try these other swords and see if there's any problem. Master Mingshan naturally won't ask to the end, the two don't have that friendship yet.
"Hmm!"
Of the four katanas in the wooden box, only one is open, and the other three katanas are all for the purpose of participating in the martial soul duel, and there is no blade on purpose, but the place where the blade should have been sharp has been made into a small arc, which is still streamlined.
Such a blade shape can more easily break through the wind resistance and speed up the swordsman's slashing speed. Yanagi Motokazu casually pulled out an unedged katana and held it in his hand.
"Master Yanagi, don't you need to test the sword target?"
"Hah, no need. Saying that, Liu Shengyuan and the hand of the split, as soon as he put it away, but the knife light was layered, and no one in the room could see clearly, at this moment, Liu Shengyuan and how many knives he swung out, only a fan-shaped wall of knife light could be seen.
"It's good, it's good, it's good to break the wind, and it's easy to slash. Yanagi Yuanhe made an understatement to conclusion, then stretched out his finger and flicked it the sword.
The loud sound of "Hong Hum-" was almost like ringing a bell, not at all like the clear sound of "Zheng-" when the long swords were struck.
Yanagi Yuanhe's finger flick is not the blade, but the thickest part of the back of the knife, according to Yanagi Yuanhe's requirements, these katanas are weighted versions, the back of the knife is thicker than the general katana, plus the metal material made of the katana is high enough, by his bullet, the whole long knife trembled and made a heavy roar.
"Yes, the strength of the sword is enough!" Yanagi Motohe looked at the katana in his hand with appreciation, not paying attention at all, and several people in the room looked at him as if they were looking at monsters.
ββββββββββββββ
"Is this Master Yanagi really only fourteen years old?" Mingshan Tieyan couldn't help but ask as he left the Sword Heroes Club in the car.
"Just go back and ask your sister, Chief Sasaki just told me that Master Yagyu is the youngest swordsman in the history of Japan, and maybe even the strongest swordsman. Master Mingshan sat in the car and closed his eyes to recuperate, and said without opening his eyes.
"The strongest swordsman? I think it's the strongest monster! With a finger-thick back of the knife, he can bounce the entire blade like that, how strong does this finger have to be? Our swords are tungsten-manganese alloy blades formed at one time, even if they are clamped with a vice, people can't bend a little bit!"
"Shut up, Tieshu, you have to maintain respect for Master Yanagi, the strong are worthy of respect, with your sister's classmate friendship, we still have many opportunities to cooperate with Master Yanagi in the future, if, I said that if Master Yanagi can win the Wuhun Cup this time, then, our Mingshan Sword Society will have a chance to develop by leaps and bounds, we must maintain a good relationship with Master Yanagi, you know?"
"- Hi Father, we see. Even if the two sons have the slightest objection, they will not raise any objections at this time, and they all express their obedience.
After all, his father, Master Akiyama, is one of Japan's famous swordsmithing masters, and this reputation only began to resound in the martial arts circle after cooperating with Master Sasaki of the Sword Heroes Association, and their Akiyama family only developed at that time, and before that, even if his father's skills were superhuman, he could only work for others. It can be seen how important the friendship of a sword hero is to them.
ββββββββββββββββ
In the case of something in his heart, Yanagi Yuanhe just watched a few videos of the finals of the martial soul duel found by Hiromi Takahashi without saying a word, and left the Sword Hero Club, which made Aoki Ryoji who was beside him a little disappointed, and originally wanted to take this opportunity to ask for advice or two, but the teacher's face was a little wrong, and Aoki Ryoji naturally didn't dare to speak rashly, so he could only secretly guess in his heart what was going on, which made the teacher unhappy.
"Yuanhe, you're back, will you get anything out of going to Jianhao today?" When Yanagi Yuanhe came back, his mother Masako Nanda happened to be at home.
"That's good, but there's something I want to ask you, Mom. "Yanagi Motokazu told his mother what he found in the Jianhao Society's database today, as well as Professor Sawada's proposal and his own worries.
He rarely has such a hesitant moment, since he was able to look inward, he should act with his heart, in other words, he did it intuitively, but this matter is different, after all, this is not a very clear and simple thing with cause and effect, but something that may have infinite variables in the future, since he can't see the variables in the future, he naturally asks to teach others.
As Liu Shengyuan and this teenager, if he says who is the most trusted person in his life, his parents must be the top two, this matter is not convenient to discuss with others, he remembered his parents, as for the hundred years of experience in his previous life, to be honest, even if he moves bricks for a hundred years, it will not help him draw architectural design drawings at all. Therefore, the experience of eating and waiting for death games in the previous life did not play a role at this time.
"Yuanhe, you have cultivated to such a point, is this true?" Nantian Masako's first reaction was not her son's current dilemma, but that her son had reached such a state, which was simply appalling. It's okay to watch this kind of thing on TV, but if it really appears in front of your eyes, no one can believe it. If it weren't for the fact that her son had demonstrated swordsmanship in front of her, Masako Nanda wouldn't have believed what her son said at all.
"Yuanhe, your concerns are right, if you let people know that you can accurately judge the efficacy of the medicine, the result is really difficult to say, this matter will have to wait for your father to come back, the three of us will discuss it carefully, don't let Sakura and your brother know first." β
"What did you say to Professor Sawada, does she know about your ability?" Masako Minamida thought for a moment and hurriedly asked her son how much information had been leaked.
Yanagi Yuanhe recalled the scene at that time: "It shouldn't be so serious, I just asked her if she could prescribe some drugs that can stimulate the tissues of various parts of the body to assist in cultivation, which is a very common situation in martial arts practice." β
"Let's wait for your dad to come back, and we'll talk about it again. We must be cautious about this matter. β
