Hearing Zhu Qiu's question, Ichiro Tsukahara's eyes lit up and he was brilliant; But for a moment, it was darkened by a layer of sadness. But he asked rhetorically:

"How did you know this was Miyamoto-sama's sword?"

Zhu Qiuwan smiled and said, "I have my own methods, but I can't tell you. You should tell me honestly, what is your relationship with Miyamoto Musashi? ”

The ten-year-old boy straightened up and said proudly: "My name is Miyamoto Yoshiei, this is my younger brother Miyamoto Yoshio, sister Miyamoto Liufeng, we are the descendants of the Sword Saint!" ”

Zhu Qiu nodded: "When I saw this knife, I guessed it." You've been listening to me for three days, haven't you? What do you want to do when you kneel in front of me today? ”

Yoshiei Miyamoto replied, "I want to learn the classics from my husband, become a qualified samurai, implement the Miyamoto family's two-day first-class way, and revitalize my Miyamoto family!" ”

"Oh, I forgot, you Japanese samurai are to be both civil and military. Proficiency in Han classics is a necessary condition. But you're ten years old now, and I've just turned seven this year, would you like to learn from me, a kid three years younger than you? Don't you feel ashamed? ”

"Don't tell you, sir, I do turn ten this year. But Mr. also said in yesterday's lecture that there is no size to learn, and those who reach it are respected! His knowledge is better than that of our brothers, and our brothers sincerely hope to learn from him. ”

"Do you know that you mean by saying this to worship me as a teacher? Apprentice, do you understand? ”

Miyamoto Yoshiei was stunned for a moment, not knowing what Zhu Qiu meant, but Tsukahara Ichiro next to him understood, Tsukahara Ichiro attached himself to Miyamoto Yoshiei's ear and whispered a few words. Miyamoto Yoshiei was stunned for a moment, looked at himself, then at his younger brothers and sisters, and finally fell on the knife in Zhu Qiu's hand, Miyamoto Yoshiei's eyes closed, as if he had made some major decision to redeem his ancestors. After a while, his eyes opened, and two lines of tears followed.

Miyamoto Yoshiei solemnly took the burden in Tsukahara's hand, untied it respectfully, picked up the wakicha inside, gently rubbed his right hand back and forth a few times, suddenly raised his head, raised his hands to wakicha, and said to Zhu Qiu: "This is the ancestral sword of my Miyamoto family, if Mr. accepts us today, I am willing to give it to Mr. as a restraint." ”

Xu Xilin looked at it a little unbearable. Miyamoto Musashi's fame, Xu Xilin has also heard of it. This person lived at the time of the alternation of Japan's Warring States and the shogunate, and was a famous swordsman at that time, with a total of 66 battles in his life, known as undefeated! Among them, the Battle of Funashima has been regarded as the pinnacle classic battle by the Japanese martial arts community for hundreds of years. If it were all there was to it, it would be just a meteor, bright but fleeting. But Miyamoto Musashi is not a meteor-like general swordsman, his people have no teacher, his sword book "Bing Tao Mirror", the source of Japanese kendo, written in his later years "Five Wheel Book", is a fusion of the art of war and kendo, in Japan is also one of the few national classics.

Xu Xilin took a closer look at the four people kneeling below, their clothes were old, and their faces were dish-colored, and he couldn't imagine that Miyamoto Musashi, such a heroic character, and his descendants in later generations, would now fall to such a point!

However, when Xu Xilin was a pity, he had some admiration. The ancients said: Poor and strong, do not fall into the ambition of the clouds. These people are so poor that they do not forget to seek knowledge and revitalize the lintel, which is really the style of an ancient Chinese gentleman.

Thinking of this, Xu Xilin had the heart to persuade Zhu Qiu to accept a few people, if Zhu Qiu was unwilling, he also had the heart to teach a few people a few classics for a few days.

Xu Xilin just wanted to speak, but suddenly heard Zhu Qiu say: "Do you still have the "Mirror of Soldiers" and "The Book of First-Class Three Soldiers in the Two Heavens of the Art of War" written by your ancestors? ”

Miyamoto Yoshiei held the wakicha in his hand, didn't dare to move, listened to Zhu Qiu's question, lowered his head and said ashamedly: "Don't dare to deceive Mr., these books you said have been lost when I was my grandfather." ”

"Oh, lost?" Zhu Qiu was taken aback, and then said, "That Tsukahara, do you know the first-class martial arts of the Miyamoto family for two days?" ”

I didn't want Tsukahara Ichiro to bow his head in shame, and it took a long time before he muttered: "Tsukahara is stupid, and he has never learned the master's stunt!" ”

After hearing this, Zhu Qiu smiled: "Since this is the case, then, even if I teach you the classics of the Han family, even if you also learn them, at best you are just a scholar, at most you are a mastermind, where can you become a warrior?" What's more, your Miyamoto family, with martial arts, lost the family tradition, how to establish a family? Not to mention the so-called two-day first-class way to revitalize your Miyamoto family? ”

The kneeling four people were silent, and Miyamoto Yoshiei burst into tears, holding the hand of the threat, trembling constantly, although he was patient, he finally cried.

Xu Xilin also sighed slightly, this kind of thing is lost, China has been countless for thousands of years, and Xu Xilin has also seen a lot, but every time it is more heartbroken.

Zhu Qiu turned to say: "However, if you lose it, you will lose it, it doesn't matter, it's not a big deal." If you really have the first-class material that can inherit the two heavens, when the time comes, I will give you the secret book of the Miyamoto family. ”

After hearing this, Miyamoto was puzzled at first, then stunned, and then overjoyed in his heart, and after thinking about it, he was ecstatic, and shouted, "Mr. promised to accept us?" ”

Zhu Qiu threw the sword in his hand to Xu Xilin, took it from Miyamoto Yoshiei's hand, pulled it out and said while looking at it: "This is Miyamoto Musashi's saber, a rare thing!" You use the family treasure as a bondage, and I naturally can't refuse. However, there is an old saying in the Han family, one day is a teacher, and a father is a life, since you worship me as a teacher, this gift of master and apprentice cannot be abolished! ”

Miyamoto Yoshiei nodded: "Master's words, I will obey them." Since then, my Miyamoto family should regard you as a master and a father! ”

Zhu Qiu blinked narrowly and said with a smile: "That being said, you are older than me after all, although I am your teacher, but I can't be too big, otherwise it will damage Tiande." In this way, I will change one word, one day as a teacher, and a lifetime as a brother. You will do it to me as an elder brother. ”

Xu Xilin was snorting beside him, this Zhu Qiu, isn't it a big brother to be a man?

At this time, Tsukahara Ichiro, who was in ecstasy on the side, suddenly came back to his senses and asked, "Sir, Mr. said that he wanted to reveal the secret book of the main family, Tsukahara wants to ask, how can you know the content of the secret book of the main family?" ”

Zhu Qiu glanced at Tsukahara and said with a smile: "It's still the same sentence, I naturally have my own way, but it's inconvenient to tell you." If there is a chance in the future, you will know. ”

Ichiro Tsukahara was full of puzzlement, and he wanted to ask again, but Yoshihide Miyamoto on the side stopped him. Miyamoto Yoshiei cleaned up his clothes, led his younger brothers and sisters, solemnly kowtowed to Zhu Qiu three times, and performed this apprenticeship ceremony.

Zhu Qiu also looked upright, and solemnly accepted the apprenticeship of the three Miyamoto. When the three of them had finished praying, they said to them, "Since you have entered my door, you must know some rules, and I will tell you about them later." It's not too early now, and looking at the way you look, it's been a long time since you've eaten properly. Let the letter take you to wash up first. Xiaoru, you go to my mother, pick out a few clothes, and change them in a while. There is a one-hour break at noon, after which classes begin. ”

After speaking, he asked the Fang brothers to lead the way and took Miyamoto and a few people. He and Xu Xilin fell behind and slowly followed.

Xu Xilin was also full of joy and was in a very good mood, so he joked with Zhu Qiu: "Brother Qiu, at such a young age, you opened a museum to teach apprentices, if you let those old Confucians in China know, don't you know what you will be ashamed of!" ”

Unexpectedly, Zhu Qiu didn't answer his words, but said with a straight face: "Bosun, the gentleman's Ze, the third generation and beheaded, reluctantly." Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, don't worry too much, fall into the magic barrier! ”

Xu Xilin was taken aback, knowing that it was the unbearable look just now that Zhu Qiu saw in his eyes, and used it to persuade him at this time.

Zhu Qiu was only a seven-year-old child, but he spoke like a teacher. But Xu Xilin didn't care at all, and replied: "What Brother Qiu said is that I am a mediocre person who disturbs myself. ”

Zhu Qiu haha, Xu Xilin knew that Zhu Qiu was joking with himself, and he couldn't help but point at Zhu Qiu, and he was also haha,

"I thought you wouldn't have promised them."

"Oh, I was on a whim, too. But, Berson, I have a question for you. ”

"But it doesn't hurt to say it."

"You say, why do they want to worship me as a teacher?"

"Didn't Yoshiei Miyamoto say that your knowledge is better than theirs, that's why you want to apprentice?"

"I don't see that I am not the only one on this ship who is well learned; We weren't the only ones who taught us, not to mention that I was a seven-year-old child. In the past three days, I have taught my younger brothers the foundation of some Han classics, and there is nothing special about it. They have listened to it for three days, but they have not been apprenticed, so why do they suddenly want to apprentice today? ”

When Zhu Qiu said this, he and Xu Xilin looked at each other, and the two of them were thoughtful, and they suddenly realized after a while.

Xu Xilin laughed and said: "It seems that you are teaching Yi language, and I am not the only one who is surprised and admired!" ”

Zhu Qiu touched his head, and he was also happy, and said, "I didn't expect that speaking English would have this effect." After the founding of the country, the Japanese have always admired the West, and they don't care more and more about the things of the Han family. ”

Xu Xilin sighed: "Becoming a king and defeating a king, the strong and the weak are the fittest, Japan is a small country, of course, where it is strong, it will learn." ”

"Peeling back the layers of skin, it turned out to be all things that transformed other people's homes, but inside, there was not even half of their own core!"

"You're talking about this, but onions?"

"No, I'm talking about the Japanese!"

The two of you look at me, I look at you, and suddenly pointed at each other, both of them looked up to the sky and laughed. After a while, the laughter stopped, and he didn't say anything more, and greeted Ma Lei, who was concentrating on boxing in the distance, and the three of them went into the cabin to eat together.
