Chapter 868: Remembering Ten Years and One Knife

Chu Huan fought with Xiao Chen in the Misty Hall, and although he finally killed Xiao Chen, he still remembered Xiao Chen's strange and multifaceted knife skills.

He didn't think that Xiao Chen's knife technique was a showmanship, but in fact, Chu Huan was shocked by Xiao Chen's weird and multi-ended knife technique, and even had a feeling of sudden realization in his brain.

Chu Huan practiced knives, the knife technique was simple and heavy, and Xiao Chen's knife technique paid attention to changes, Chu Huan always felt that on top of the knowledge of knife technique, it seemed that a new road had been opened, this road was still very vague, but he always felt that he had caught something.

Although his sword skills are not weak, but they have not reached the realm of knife skills, Qiu Ruxue is a swordsman, naturally he is deep in all sword techniques, he really hopes to find a breakthrough from Qiu Ruxue, and can make his seemingly vague path clearer.

Qiu Ruxue hesitated, but Chu Huan had already gotten up and said, "Brother Qiu, wait a minute." "Out of the door, soon returned, already with a knife in his hand, this is from the guard outside the door, took the knife, put the scabbard aside, held the sharp blade, pondered for a moment, suddenly made a movement, the degree is very fast, the blade was originally facing the left, but in the blink of an eye, but the blade is already facing the right, the degree is so fast, terrifying.

Qiu Ruxue didn't even see how Huan moved, but he had studied the knife technique very deeply, and he could see that it was really amazing to change the blade so quickly, at least after practicing it for decades, it seemed that it was difficult to do it.

Chu Huan showed this hand, Qiu Ruxue knew that Chu Huan was not lying, and without hesitation, he approached the past, and said strangely: "Lord Chu, can you demonstrate this hand again?" ”

Lin Dai'er saw that the two men were studying her sword technique here, and seemed to have forgotten that she existed, she didn't care if others cared about herself, but when she saw Chu Huan luring Qiu Ruxue to her side in a few words, she felt a little strange in her heart, and she also felt a little dizzy at this time, got up, and said, "Brother Qiu, little sister won't bother you first, and leave first." ”

Qiu Ruxue was obviously attracted by Chu Huan's hand at this time, and when he heard Lin Dai'er's voice, he didn't look back, but just said, "Miss Lin is at her own convenience!" Even ignoring etiquette, he leaned around Chu Huan and urged: "Lord Chu, please demonstrate it again." ”

Lin Dai'er looked at Chu Huan, only to see that Chu Huan was also looking at herself, with a strange smile on her angular face, as if she was provoking Lin Dai'er, Lin Dai'er was annoyed and glared at him, her eyes were outstanding, and she had a seductive style, so she turned around and went out.

Chu Huan saw Lin Dai'er leaving, so he re-demonstrated that trick, and his movements slowed down a lot, so that Qiu Ruxue could see clearly.

Qiu Ruxue saw it in his eyes, showing surprise, took Chu Huan's knife, and learned to make this move, but only half of it, this knife was so difficult to control that he almost got out of his hand.

For those who practice knives, the first element of using a knife is to be able to fully grasp the knife in hand, once the knife in the hand cannot be fully controlled, it is equivalent to failure.

Qiu Ruxue knew that he had missed this action, and he was suddenly even more surprised, he could see that this knife was not too difficult, mainly because of the flexible rotation of his wrist, but he really wanted to try, but it was not as simple as he thought.

"Brother Qiu, this move is its most basic move, and it can be regarded as the simplest move." Chu Huan said: "At the beginning, I couldn't control it at all, and I practiced hundreds of times before I have what I have now, but I still can't be considered to have completely mastered it, what do you think of this trick?" ”

Qiu Ruxue said: "If it is used in actual combat, it can completely catch the opponent off guard, this change of trick is too fast, and the opponent is difficult to react at all." Understood something, and exclaimed: "Lord Chu, do you mean to say that this move is just the most ordinary move?" ”

Chu Huan nodded and said, "Exactly." Brother Qiu, I know that you are proficient in swordsmanship, so I will consult with you ......! ”

Qiu Ruxue frowned and said: "Lord Chu, such a clever sword technique is not easy to show, you ...... Do you trust Qiu too much? ”

Chu Huan said with a smile: "It is precisely because this sword technique is a little strange that I invited Brother Qiu to refer to it together." Although there is not much contact with Brother Qiu, but Brother Qiu is a person of faith, to say a word, even if this set of knife brother Qiu really fully comprehended, it is not a bad thing, the predecessor's knife method, is to let future generations break through, if I and Brother Qiu are really fortunate to be able to understand some new ways of knife art, I think the predecessor of the knife master should be very willing to see. ”

Qiu Ruxue sighed and said, "Lord Chu is really different from other officials. After a pause, he finally said: "Lord Chu, Qiu can't give you any promises, but for the time being, I can stay by your side, although there are many masters around you, you really don't need Qiu's protection, but if there is really an accident, Qiu can also take a ......!" Then he smiled and said: "But the ugly words have to be said in front, Lord Chu wants to hire Qiu Mou to protect, and Qiu's commission is quite a lot!" ”

Chu Huan laughed and said, "If one day Chu can't pay the commission, Brother Qiu should leave quickly, and I won't keep you by your side at that time." ”

Qiu Ruxue then said: "Lord Chu, the move you made just now changed extremely quickly, and it was indeed a wonderful move, but it had a huge flaw!" ”

Chu Huan raised his eyebrows and said, "Please advise!" ”

"Lack of strength." Qiu Ruxue said solemnly: "Lord Chu, the change of tactics just now is indeed exquisite, but the change, don't you think that because the change is too fast, it directly leads to a great weakening of the strength?" ”

Chu Huan secretly praised in his heart, Qiu Ruxue, as a swordsman, is really not a vegetarian, and he broke his flaws in one sentence, nodded and said: "Brother Qiu is really to the point." ”

Qiu Ruxue frowned and said, "This is just my personal opinion......!" As if he was thinking about something, he said after a while: "If you can maintain a certain amount of strength with such a degree of change, its power will be amazing." Swords are different from swords, and one of the most important advantages of swords is that they are strong and natural, and they can exert ...... sense of human strength! Speaking of which, hatred is like blood and a thoughtful look.

Chu Huan raised his hand to let Qiu Ruxue sit down, and after a while, Qiu Ruxue said: "Lord Chu, I think your sword technique, there must be some other changes, we might as well study it, see if there are any changes in it combined with the sense of strength of the knife itself, let's use the knife, focus on the actual effect, not in the showmanship, if it is on the premise of maintaining strength, in the knife style to seek the fastest change, it must be amazing." ”

Chu Huan said solemnly: "Brother Qiu is right. ”

Qiu Ruxue thought for a while, and then said: "Lord Chu, if you want this knife technique to really form a routine, you always have to remove some and keep some, Miss Lin should be very clear about the advantages and disadvantages of this set of knife techniques, if she can participate in the discussion, there should be a greater breakthrough ......!" ”

Chu Huan was stunned and said strangely: "Why did Brother Qiu say this?" ”

Qiu Ruxue was also stunned, and asked rhetorically: "Master Chu, didn't this set of sword techniques be taught to you by Miss Lin?" ”

Chu Huan was suddenly a little stunned, and wondered: "Brother Qiu, does he think that this set of knife techniques was taught by Miss Lin?" You...... Why do you have this idea? Could it be ...... Have you seen her knife skills? ”

Qiu Ruxue frowned slightly, and said: "Lord Chu, if it weren't for Miss Lin, where did you learn about this strange sword technique, I won't tell you, your unusual change of tricks, Qiu Mou saw someone show his hand many years ago, and now that he thinks about it, it is still clearly left in his mind, and he has not forgotten it at all." ”

Chu Huan was even more surprised, leaned forward slightly, and asked, "Brother Qiu has seen this kind of sword technique?" ”

"That was more than a decade ago." Qiu Ruxue sighed: "At that time, I didn't have much fame in the rivers and lakes, and my favorite thing to do was to visit the world's well-known swordsmen and ask them for knife skills. After thinking about it, he finally said: "It should be eleven years ago, I went to the Daimyo's Mansion to visit a famous swordsman, but I haven't seen the swordsman yet, but I encountered a sudden incident. ”

Chu Huan knew that what Qiu Ruxue encountered must be related to this strange knife technique, this knife technique came from Xiao Chen, and Chu Huan really wanted to know other stories about this knife technique.

Xiao Chen's sword technique was not the original sword technique, coupled with his identity as a disciple of the Heavenly Gate, Chu Huan always felt that from this sword technique, he might know some unknown things, and even related to the Heavenly Gate.

"I remember that day I was walking on a street in the Daimyo's Mansion when I suddenly met a group of people and horses coming towards me." Qiu Ruxue's voice was very low, and he recalled: "The pedestrians on the street are hiding on both sides, it was an official's team passing from the street, the soldiers in front of me opened the way, and I also flashed to the side of the road, I thought the team would pass quickly, but ...... An assassination ensued, and seven or eight Assassins hid in the crowd on either side, and when the official approached, they all started to assassinate the official. ”

Chu Huan frowned slightly, in fact, this kind of thing is not strange to Chu Huan, the assassination of officials, all dynasties, it seems that it is not a rare thing.

"The methods of those assassins are not low, and the cooperation is also very tacit, and before the officers and soldiers of the guard officer can react, these people will kill into the crowd and approach the official." Qiu Ru's bloody eyes gradually shone brightly, "That is the first time I have seen the kind of weird sword technique that Lord Chu has just demonstrated......!" ”

"Brother Qiu is saying, Assassins, someone uses ......!"

Before Chu Huan finished speaking, Qiu Ruxue had already shook his head and said, "It's not the assassin, it's the official." ”

Chu Huan was stunned.

"Three assassins, attacking that official from three directions at the same time, cooperate tacitly, and the knife skills are even better." Qiu Ruxue said slowly: "When I saw it at the time, I only thought that the official would definitely die, and it was impossible to escape." Shaking his head, he sighed: "But I was wrong after all, when the three assassins approached the past, I saw him draw his knife in his hand, and then the knife flashed again and again, and then I saw that the knife in his hand was an incredible change of moves, it was a scene that I can never forget in my life, although it was only a short moment, but that scene, I will never forget ...... in my life!" Looking at Chu Huan, he said solemnly: "Lord Chu, your change of tactics just now is almost exactly the same as the sword technique of that official back then!" ”

The corners of Chu Huan's eyes twitched slightly, and he finally asked, "Brother Qiu, who is the official you are talking about?" ”

Qiu Ruxue stared at Chu Huan's eyes and asked rhetorically, "Lord Chu, you really don't know who I'm talking about?" ”
