Chapter 66: The face is like ashes

Li Jingwei and Sato Bamboo walked out of the meeting room and came to the center of the martial arts arena.

Sitting back and talking is never the solution to a problem. Before, Li Jingwei could see from Sato Takeshita's expression that he didn't understand what he wanted to express at all, and naturally he didn't understand what martial arts were.

Of course, this does not mean that Li Jingwei himself has become enlightened. As for what exactly is 'Dao' and what is martial arts, Li Jingwei may not have understood it thoroughly, or partially understood it, but he can't accurately express it in his own words.

But Li Jingwei's state of mind is far from being comparable to Sato Takeshita. Li Jingwei has realized this, and he doesn't know why he has such a firm idea, just like when Zhou Chenggang said to himself, 'I did it if I wanted to', there is no reason or no need to explain, he just knows this.

Sato Takeshita has been practicing martial arts for many years, and naturally has his own understanding of martial arts, but it is precisely because of his own understanding that it is more difficult to change in a short period of time.

More importantly, the deep-rooted national culture of the Japanese also determines his psychological habits and behavioral habits, which cannot be changed overnight.

Of course, not all Japanese people are like this, such as Asai Nagataku, who has the mentality of a true martial artist. In terms of combat effectiveness, he may not be Sato Takeshita's opponent, but that kind of understanding of martial arts, Zhang Longcheng has already made a conclusion back then. Asai Nagato is a true martial artist, and he also knows that one of the realms of martial arts is to stop fighting.

Sato Takeshita has not yet understood this.

From Sato Takeshita's eyes, Li Jingwei also saw Sato Takeshita's strong desire to defeat himself, this desire is a long-term pursuit of the invincible realm in the world, and it will not disappear because Sato Takeshita's state of mind has improved. On the contrary, after being suppressed for a long time, the outburst may be more violent.

Sato Takeshita's mediocrity is more of an appearance, and it is really internalized into his consciousness, and it is possible that even he is not aware of it. Li Jingwei was also deceived by this appearance at first, and it was only in the end that Sato Takeshita's expression betrayed him, and Li Jingwei finally saw his essence.

From Sato Takeshita's laughing laughter, Li Jingwei heard a little arrogance and belligerence. Therefore, Li Jingwei knows very well that this battle is inevitable.

Just as the two of them were standing still, two more people walked in from outside the courtyard.

Liu Yuanshan hurriedly greeted one of them and said, "Hello Master Cheng!"

It turned out that one of the two people who came in was Cheng Zongquan, the head of the hall in charge of Hongmen's New York affairs. This is a middle-aged man who looks less than fifty years old, with a burly figure, a Chinese face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a majestic aura emerges between his eyebrows.

Walking beside him was a man in his forties, with a small head and hair standing on end, looking very energetic. The figure is slightly shorter than Cheng Zongquan, wearing a gray cotton cardigan Chinese top on the upper body, slightly fat trousers on the lower body, and a pair of old Beijing cloth shoes. The whole person looks very traditional.

Liu Yuanshan told Cheng Zongquan everything that had just happened concisely. After hearing this, Cheng Zongquan and the others both looked at the two people standing in the field.

Afterwards, Cheng Zongquan took another person to Tong Sihai and Tang Jifeng and introduced: "Elder Tong, this is Liu Liang, the personal disciple of Liu Liangshan, the master of Bajiquan. Yanagi sent him to help us. ”

Originally, Cheng Zongquan hoped that Liu Liangshan would be able to go out in person, but the old man was indeed old, and he was sick in bed these days, so he was really not suitable to participate in such a competition.

However, after receiving a call from Cheng Zongquan's father-in-law, Liu Liangshan agreed to help without saying a word, and sent his own personal disciple over.

Tong Sihai is much older than Liu Liang and has a higher seniority, but he still took the initiative to reach out and shake Liu Liang's hand, and said, "Liu Liang, I have worked hard for you this time! Thank you!"

When shaking hands, Tong Sihai saw that this Liu Liang's realm was actually much higher than that of himself and Tang Jifeng. If Liu Liangzhen faces Sato Takeshita, although he may not be able to win, he may not be able to lose. No wonder his master sent him over to help with boxing so reassuringly, this Liu Liang is indeed the best in his generation.

It is rare that Liu Liang is still so modest, and he speaks and acts in a measured manner.

Liu Liang had already heard Cheng Zongquan introduce Tong Sihai on the way, and at this time he also said respectfully: "Elder Tong, everything should be done by juniors, you don't have to be polite!"

Then, Tong Sihai introduced Tang Jifeng and Tang Qiushui to Cheng Zongquan and Liu Liang.

While speaking, Li Jingwei and Sato Takeshita in the field were already ready to start moving.

Sato Takeshita took over a Japanese *** about seventy centimeters from Matsushita Akihui, and the blade was glowing with cold light.

Li Jingwei listened to Asai Yongtuo and Asai porcelain paintings talk a lot about Japan's best knowledge, and he found that the knife in Sato Takeshita's hand was actually a top ten *** - broken water.

Because this knife has a distinct feature, which is the cutting edge on both sides. Usually, the Japanese *** is on one side, so when Li Jingwei listened to Asai Yongtuo's explanation, he remembered the characteristics of this water knife.

According to legend, this knife has its own knife energy, swinging the knife to split the water, the blade has not arrived, and the knife gas emitted has been cut off from the water, hence the name of the broken water. It's a razor-sharp Japanese ***.

Seeing this, Tang Qiushui, who was originally sitting, hurriedly ran forward and handed the dragon slaying dagger to Li Jingwei.

Li Jingwei didn't take the dagger, but just said to Tang Qiushui: "I don't need it." Qiushui, you hurry down. !”

It's not that Li Jingwei is trusting, because he is not good at using weapons such as daggers, and he can't use them to perform ancient Tai Chi exercises better. This was something he had realized in the previous seizure of the Tai Chi Xuan Yao.

Sato Takeshita was also a little surprised when he saw Li Jingwei fighting with his bare hands, so he said, "Doesn't Li Sang use weapons?"

"I'm not used to using weapons. Li Jingwei said. Immediately, he took a half-step step to the right with his right foot, stretched out his right hand forward, palmed up, made a gesture of please, and then said, "Mr. Sato, please make a move." ”

Cheng Zongquan, who was sitting next to Tong Sihai, couldn't see Li Jingwei's strength, and asked with some concern: "Elder Tong, this young man won't be in danger, right?" ”

Tong Sihai hadn't answered yet, but Liu Liang, who was sitting next to him, said, "Brother Cheng, don't worry. The Japanese were no match for the young man. ”

Liu Liang saw that with Sato Takeshita's strength, he was afraid that he would be half a catty or eight taels. But he could feel that he was not Li Jingwei's opponent.

Takeshita Sato in the field was no longer polite, holding a knife in both hands, kicking the ground with his right foot, and the whole person rushed towards Li Jingwei.

Under the guidance of Asai Yongtuo, Li Jingwei is also familiar with Japanese sword techniques and knows the characteristics of Japanese sword techniques.

Japan's best law, every move is like lightning, extremely powerful. Moreover, there is not the slightest fancyness in every move, and they are all directly at the opponent's point. In addition, every time he swings the knife, he accumulates all his strength, trying to kill the opponent with one blow.

Therefore, in the actual combat process, the Japanese law has a considerable advantage, which often catches the other party off guard.

In the face of Sato Takeshita's offensive, Li Jingwei naturally did not dare to be careless. This is the strongest he's come up against so far, and he has to be handled with caution.

With the operation of the ancient Tai Chi exercises, Li Jingwei entered a state of mystery and mystery, as if he was integrated into the surrounding air, and his consciousness perceived everything around him with the extension of the air.

Every movement of Sato Takeshita is like a slow motion, showing the consciousness and perception of Li Jingwei.

At this moment, Li Jingwei showed his true strength and also showed the power of ancient Tai Chi exercises.

Li Jingwei originally thought that if he wanted to win Sato Takeshita, he was afraid that it would take a lot of time, but then he realized that Sato Takeshita was too different from himself.

The reason why Li Jingwei had the illusion before was because since he absorbed some of the power of Tai Chi True Yuan contained in Zhang Sanfeng's "Tai Chi Xuan Yao", he had never run the ancient Tai Chi exercises with all his strength, nor had he realized the true strength of his Tai Chi True Qi.

This is also because Li Jingwei has no experience, but he feels that the amount of his Tai Chi True Qi does not seem to have increased much, but he doesn't know that there is a huge difference in quality. In addition, the deeper Li Jingwei's cultivation realm, the more he returns to the basics, and it is even more incomprehensible to Tang Jifeng, Tong Sihai and others.

Although Liu Liang saw that Li Jingwei was sure to win, he also didn't really see Li Jingwei's strength, but he just felt that his strength definitely surpassed his own.

When Sato Takeshita was about to get close to Li Jingwei, he suddenly rose in the air, holding a knife in both hands and slashing at the top of Li Jingwei's head. This move condensed the strength of Sato Takeshita's body, and it seemed to be an extremely simple move, but it was actually extremely domineering, as if it had the power to open mountains and crack stones.

However, this move was opened by Li Jingwei, as if Sato Takeshita was used in a viscous solution, very slowly, and his body was full of flaws.

About an inch above Li Jingwei's head, the blade was about to touch the top of Li Jingwei's head, and Li Jingwei lightly turned sideways to avoid it. Then, at the moment when the blade was deflected, Li Jingwei stretched out his right hand and gently pinched the blade as if inadvertently.

Li Jingwei's approach couldn't be more natural in his own opinion, but then Sato Takeshita was shocked. It was a move that gathered all the strength of his body, and he didn't believe that anyone could dodge it so lightly, and then he could still pinch his knife with his fingers.

Although he was surprised, Sato Takeshita's reaction was also swift, and the moment his foot hit the ground, he kicked his toes, trying to use the power of this kick to withdraw the knife.

However, what surprised Sato Takeshita again was that he couldn't pull out his knife, even if he retreated with all his might, the knife didn't move between Li Jingwei's two fingers.

Also surprised were Tang Jifeng, Tong Sihai and Liu Liang and others. They didn't expect that Li Jingwei would be able to restrain Sato Takeshita with just one move, which was really incredible.

Sato Takeshita was unwilling, his right hand suddenly let go of the hilt, and pulled out a short knife of about twenty centimeters from his arms between the electric and flint, and at the same time his body rotated to the left, and the short knife in his right hand took advantage of the situation to slash at Li Jingwei's abdomen.

His reaction to this move can be described as extremely fast, and the speed of the knife is also extremely fast.

However, Li Jingwei was still indifferent. I saw that his hand holding the blade of the knife pressed down, and it hit the short knife that Sato Takeshita waved horizontally. After a crisp sound, the short knife snapped. At the same time, Sato Takeshita's rotating figure also stopped.

Then, Li Jingwei's right hand pulled upward, and at the same time turned slightly, and the whole knife broke free from Sato Takeshita's hand, broke away from Sato Takeshita's grasp, and then rested on his neck.

Sato Takeshita's face immediately turned to ashes.
