Chapter 0688 Sumo is the quintessence of the country, and Yokozuna is the champion of bravery
Mt. Ushima is an active volcano that straddles between Shizuoka Prefecture (Fujinomiya City, Susono City, Fuji City, Gotemba City, and Oyama Town, Sunto County) and Yamanashi Prefecture (Fujiyoshida City, Narusawa Village, Minamitsuru-gun). At 3,776.24 meters above sea level, it is the highest peak in Toyo Province, and Mt. Hushi is known all over the world as a symbol of Toyo Province.
It has been known as a spiritual peak since ancient times, and in particular, there is a shrine at the top of the mountain, which is regarded as a symbol of sacredness. Since there was no eruption for the time being, Asama Shrine was set up for worship in accordance with the Oriental Imperial Law System, and the Asama faith was established.
Toyo is a high-risk area for earthquakes and volcanoes, and as a world-famous volcano, when Cui Ning approached Mount Fushi, he realized that the mountain did not erupt not only because it was in a period of silence, but because it was surrounded by a great mana.
The cherry blossoms of Mount Faus, the world-famous beauty, but the winter of Mount Faus, in fact, also has a different kind of charm, especially when Cui Ning goes up the mountain, the sky is blue, and this snow mountain, which actually belongs to the Tokugawa shogunate, July and August is the best season to climb, so there are not many people in this season.
However, it takes eight or nine hours for ordinary people to climb from the 5th station to the 10th station on the top of the mountain, after all, the mountain is known to the outside world as more than 3,700 meters high, which is twice as high as the peak of Taiyue, even if it starts from the 5th station of more than 2,000 meters, there is a distance from Taiyue to the top of the mountain, so that Cui Ning, who has climbed Taiyue, knows the height of this mountain.
However, the Oriental people are very serious about their work, the road up the mountain is not steep, and the signs for each section of the road are very detailed, even if you are a foreigner, you will basically not get lost.
Actually, Cui Ning wanted to return to China in a hurry, but Jiang Yunfei's predecessor signaled Cui Ning to go to Fauss Mountain to have a look, because Okuda Xiaoyuan and Jiang Ying were also going to climb the mountain, and after Cui Ning dealt with the affairs of the Yamamoto family, he also met with Okuda Xiaoyuan and Jiang Ying and made an appointment to climb the mountain together.
There is a real shrine here, and there is a legendary god-like existence, which is why Cui Ning climbed the mountain.
Cui Ning is boarded in the afternoon, so that you can arrive at the 8th station in the early morning, about 3250 above sea level, rest for a few hours, and then watch the sunrise over Fushi Mountain, the sunrise of Fushi Mountain is very beautiful, and it is also a scenery worth seeing.
And what Cui Ning wants is to visit the masters here, and then experience the energy aura here, after all, the important place of a country must have his unique energy.
Although Asama Shrine is located at the top of the mountain, there is a small Ontake Shrine on the 5th station, which is equivalent to a temple or temple in Ryukoku.
Koontake Shrine is also a thousand-year-old shrine, and the area around the 5th station of the magazine is called the "Tengu Garden", and it is said that it was dominated by the Tengu.
The god Tengu is worshiped in Ko-Ontake Tarobo and is enshrined as the god of enlightenment, and is enshrined at Ko-Ontake Shrine on Ubushi. There are many treasures about the god Tengu at the shrine, and the large axe placed in the atrium weighs 375 kilograms, and tourists have always liked to come here to try their strength since ancient times, and this is a starting point for mountain climbing, so there are still many people at the shrine.
When Cui Ning and the three of them walked into the shrine, they saw two fat young men trying to lift a 375-kilogram axe, and because they were professional athletes, they were full of confidence that they could lift the axe.
Asaoryu and Chiyo from "Buya" are both from the youngest daeki in the sumo world, and Aaseiryu is not from the Toyo country, but a young man from the neighboring grassland country, who is already a shimonoki at the age of twenty (equivalent to a silver medal or second place in the industry), and their goal is to become a new generation of yokozuna (equivalent to the annual champion, but you have to win the highest level of the tournament twice in a row to become yokozuna), and this time I came to Koontake Shrine to draw lots, after all, it is said that the lottery here is very smart.
However, seeing the 375 kg big axe, the two were eager to try, thinking about trying their strength, after all, in the arena, hundreds of pounds of people, they can easily put down, so in the face of the big axe, it is inevitable that there is some itching.
Chao Qinglong stepped forward first, weighing more than 700 catties, and relying on the explosive power of the wrist and waist, in fact, sumo wrestlers do not have an advantage, because their advantage is their own weight, as well as the coordination between the muscles and veins, and then knock the opponent down, but in the face of real weight, they are not even as good as ordinary weightlifters.
Seeing that Chao Qinglong failed and Chiyo also moved forward, Cui Ning felt that Chiyo's blood qi and energy index were not as good as Chao Qinglong, so he naturally shook his head gently.
Sure enough, Chiyo tried his best, but he couldn't afford to hold the axe of more than 700 catties, and the two of them were not interested, but fortunately they were wearing civilian clothes, after all, in the Toyo country, sumo wrestlers are a very noble career, more noble than celebrities or ordinary businessmen.
Chao Qinglong and Chiyo, failed to lift the axe, went to draw lots and then went down the mountain, their physical strength could not climb Mount Faus.
Cui Ning is not interested in the movement of lifting an axe, but what interests Cui Ning is that there is a huge amount of energy in the axe, and it seems that this axe is somewhat wonderful.
Cui Ning is also curious, after all, he is super sensitive to energy, and seeing strange energy is like a scientist discovering a new material component.
Cui Ning stepped forward, hugged the handle of the axe, and then stroked the body of the axe, feeling a certain energy that was different from the power of desire and the breath of life, and this energy was more like an obsession, which made Cui Ning wonder about the origin of this axe.
Thinking that he could ask the masters in the shrine and check the information on this axe, Cui Ning thought that the so-called Dragon Country also has the legend of the tengu, for example, the solar eclipse is the tengu eating the moon, but there is not much belief in the legend in this area, and the small Ontake Shrine worships the tengu as a god, there must be some common places in this, but I don't know where the origin is.
Cui Ning was thinking about some legends, as well as experiencing the obsession of the axe, and unconsciously picked up the axe, and even took it in front of his face to take a serious look, after all, it was Cui Ning's strength, and it was a very simple thing to lift this axe.
It's just that Cui Ning didn't realize that Chao Qinglong and Chiyo, who had tried their best just now, happened to come out after drawing lots, and saw Cui Ning as if he was holding a large marshmallow, looking at this axe, the two glanced at each other, and couldn't tell whether it was shock or surprise.
After all, they are one of the youngest Daguan in the Eastern Kingdom, and it can be said unceremoniously that they have the strength of a thousand catties on their two arms, while Cui Ning looks thin and weak, and he doesn't look like a master who can lift a thousand catties.
Cui Ning saw Chao Qinglong and Chiyo, and also realized that something was noticeable, pretending that nothing had happened, slowly putting down the axe, and then preparing to leave.
Okuda Madoka and Jiang Ying, as two girls, don't want to be eye-catching, after all, they have lived in Toyo since they were children, so their personalities are very introverted.
The lottery won by the asahi dragon was the upper lottery, and the interpreter of the shrine told him that he would soar in the next few years, which means that his dream of becoming a yokozuna would soon come true.
But a future Yokozuna couldn't even lift an axe, watching Cui Ning leave, Chao Qinglong stepped forward again, trying to lift the axe, but sumo is really not a weightlifting training, the way of exerting force is different, although Chao Qinglong is sweating profusely, he is helpless against this axe.
But thinking about Cui Ning, he can easily lift this axe, is it some kind of witchcraft, or is it a legendary master on the mountain, Chao Qinglong and Chiyo followed Cui Ning behind, watching Cui Ning look around the shrine, especially Cui Ning saw some tengu totems and the shrine also has the same wish power as the Dragon Kingdom, so he stayed for a while.
Cui Ning naturally saw Chao Qinglong and Chiyo, thinking that he was also concerned by the other party because he raised an axe, but as long as the other party had no malicious intentions.
Asao Qinglong and Chiyo themselves don't have much malice, but they think that if Cui Ning can teach him some magical stunts, the two of them will definitely be invincible in the sumo ring.
The two followed Cui Ning for about thirty minutes, and finally boldly moved forward towards Qinglong and greeted Cui Ning:
"Hey, are you a master of mountain cultivation?"
"Oh, are there cultivators on Mount Faus?" Cui Ning asked rhetorically.
"I'm just a tourist from the Dragon Country."
"Dragon country?" Chao Qinglong was even more surprised:
"I'm Chaoqinglong, this is my friend Chiyo, it is said that the dragon country has the legendary immortal technique, I don't know just now that you raised the axe, did you just use some kind of secret technique?
Cui Ning smiled:
"Where is the art of immortals, it's just that I've practiced kung fu for a while, and I have some explosive power. If you want real strength, I may not be stronger than the two of you."
Chao Qinglong looked at his body of more than three hundred catties, and he also deeply agreed with Cui Ning's words, but after all, the fact of raising the axe was in front of him, Chao Qinglong still asked:
"May I ask the respected people of the Dragon Kingdom, I don't know, how did you train the explosive power you said?"
Cui Ning thought about it, after all, the other party was sincerely seeking advice, and Cui Ning could vaguely feel the identity of the other party, after all, the temperament and habits of the sumo wrestlers still betrayed them.
"If you want to talk about explosive training, in fact, you train every day, such as increasing muscle mass, such as training the coordination of the whole body, etc.
However, to truly grasp the mystery of power, the essence lies in stillness, not movement.
The strength of elephants is far greater than that of lions, in addition to the advantage of size, it is because of the elephant's perception of the power of the earth, in fact, elephants are basically vegetarians, unlike lions, relying on a lot of meat and calories to improve their explosiveness.
And the elephant is not slow, not clumsy.
I know you should eat a lot of nutrients every day and do a lot of exercise, but from now on, you might as well try to do an hour of horse training every year, or sit down.
Really calm down, feel the energy of the earth, stand with your feet and the earth, and then the strength is born from the earth, the waist and the horse are one, and the power that bursts out can lift a thousand catties."
"Jing?" Chao Qinglong and Chiyo were a little confused, but Chao Qinglong continued to ask:
"May I ask what to call you, honorable dragon countryman?"
"Just call me Shenlongjun," Cui Ning said:
"Remember when I say quiet, it's the quietness of the heart, not just the stillness, when your heart is quiet, if you can feel the breath of the earth, or listen carefully to a spring or birdsong, then it is really quiet.
I mean, don't rush to fall your opponent, but think that you'll never be fallen, and that's what you call being invincible.
Although I am not an athlete, I also participated in a recent competition, the opponent is a super master, in terms of skill and strength of the game, in fact, I have no advantage, but my advantage is not to let him knock me down, and in the end he lost to himself."
