In fact, the person who really carried forward the way of the Iai Kendo was named Hayashi Shisuke. When Hayashizaki was six years old, his father was killed by a sneak attack by Sakagami Shozen, a diner from the same clan at the time.

At that time, Sakagami was a swordsman who had been famous for a long time, and Hayashi Shisuke avenged his father, although he studied swordsmanship painstakingly, but due to the gap in strength, if he duel with Sakagami, compete in swordsmanship skills, and launch a long-term confrontation, the odds of victory are undoubtedly very low.

Therefore, if Hayashi Shisuke wants to achieve swordsmanship quickly and avenge his father as soon as possible, he must learn a quick sword technique and strive to distinguish the winner in a short time. So Hayashizaki Shisuke decided to join Kashima Shindangryo Sect and learn swordsmanship from Tsukahara Bu Ling as his teacher.

At that time, Tsukahara Bu Ling was not only the best in swordsmanship, but also Kashima's new current swordsmanship, which was pure "one hit kill".

In the year when Hayashi Shisuke felt that his swordsmanship had become a master, he decided to have a one-on-one duel with Sakagami Main Meal. At that time, as a famous swordsman, Sakagami Shozen was very contemptuous of the eighteen-year-old, and he didn't even draw his sword, and even let the opponent draw his sword to attack him first.

Lin Qi didn't say a word, suddenly drew his knife and slashed, and cut the head of the enemy Sakagami Sakami in half with a single sword, and Sakagami's hand had just touched the handle of the knife until the moment he died.

Hayashizaki Shisuke's sword drawing technique is also famous for being called revenge swordsmanship. Although Hayashizaki Shisuke never opened a dojo in his life, there were outstanding among his disciples, and this genre was passed down to later generations, and later generations called this school Hayashiaki Myojin Dream Stream.

The life of Juai lies in the moment when the thunder draws the sword, and this famous saying is also spread with the dream flow of Hayashi Myojin, and it is promoted to the whole book together with Juai Dao.

Of course, at this time, Hayashi Shisuke had just finished avenging his father's revenge, and the reputation of Iaido was not as loud as it was later, and at that time, Iai's swordsmanship was still regarded as a kind of sword drawing technique. However, in the Katori Shinto stream, the sword drawing technique has been practiced by many people.

And Tsukahara Butatsu's Kashima Shindangryu, as one of the schools of Katori Shinto-ryu, also has many disciples who practice sword drawing. Li Xiao remembered that when Shigang Yiyu slashed the swordsmanship of the five ashigaru spears under Nishimura Heizo, it was also the swordsmanship of Iaido.

In fact, there is only one way to come and go, which is a horizontal cut, which is called a horizontal text. Later, the so-called Juhe Ten Style was just a method of using the sword drawing technique on ten different occasions.

On the 10th day of the first month, a heavy snow suddenly descended on the entire Shinano, and the four fields were vast.

On snow-covered country roads, the people of Shinano brave the cold to attend the annual New Year's festival at Suwa Shrine Upper Shrine in Suwa Prefecture. In addition to worshipping the god of Suwa by the way, you can also enjoy the wonder of the god crossing.

When the winter is extremely cold, the surface of Lake Suwa freezes over, but the ice in the middle of the lake often bursts open due to temperature differences, creating a narrow water path that connects Suwa Kamisha and Shimonosha for dozens of miles. This natural phenomenon is called "Gojinto", and is regarded by the locals as a miracle left by the meeting of the male god of the upper shrine and the goddess of the lower shrine across the lake. The people can use the tortoise patterns on the ice cracks to predict the climate of the coming year and the disaster of crops.

The snowflakes kept falling, the climate was getting colder and colder, and in the woods five miles outside Gaoyuan City, Shigang Yiyu, who had not been seen in March, was standing quietly in the snow alone at the moment.

Shioka Kazuha wears a black patterned feather weave on his upper body, which is a family crest, and the sleeves on the left and right sides of Shioka Kazuha are embroidered with a bellflower family crest representing the Toki clan. (The Wise Mitsuhide Banner Seal, which is also from the Toki clan, is also a bellflower flower)

He wears a skirt that looks like it hangs from the waist to the feet. This is actually called a horse hakama and has an inseam inside. There are five pleats outside the horse hakama, and each pleats represent the Confucian ethics of the monarch and the minister, father and son, husband and wife, the elder and the young, and the friend, and symbolize the five virtues of benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom and faith.

Shigang Kazuha's dress was orthodox and costume, and at that time it was called Wu or Tang costume, and the reason for this name was naturally because it was passed down from China.

The reason why Shioka Kazuha dresses so formally is because of the solemnity of a swordsman's dueling and his respect for his opponent. After all, in a duel, it is either life or death, at least you have to dress decently before hanging. In the eyes of the samurai, death is not enough to fear, and the only worry is that he will not be able to die a dignified death and lose the glory of the samurai.

Now Shioka Kazuha crossed his hands in front of his chest, the sword and ribs were pinned to his waist, and he did not hold an umbrella, although he stood under the tree, but from time to time snow fell on his head and shoulders.

At this moment, Shi Gang Yiyu's face was pale, and his expression was cold, because Li Xiao, who had been invited to the duel, had already arrived half an hour later than the stipulated time.

"This damn Mingguo." Shigang Yiyu scolded secretly.

At this time, there was a rustling sound of snow in the distance, and Shigang Yiyu saw two figures holding umbrellas one after the other, walking towards here.

"It's finally here." Shigang Kazuha stretched out his hand to brush the snow off his body, and the whole person took a step forward.

"I'm sorry, I'm a little late." Li Xiao walked to Shigang Yiyu with a smile and stopped more than ten meters in front of him. He was followed by his retinue Katsutakeshi Shima, who held an umbrella on one side and carried a spear on his shoulder.

"It doesn't matter."

Shioka Kazuha replied in a deep voice, although he said this in his mouth, but in fact, he thought in his heart that the duel was the first priority, and the other party was actually late because of the mundane reason. This is really disrespectful to the opponent, Shigang Kazuha secretly regrets it, choosing to duel with such a person will spread in the future, and it will also tarnish his reputation.

Anyway, I won't mention this duel to anyone in the future. Thinking of this, Shigang Yiyu stretched out his hand and said, "In that case, let's start fulfilling the promise made three months ago, please." ”

Li Xiao stretched out his hand and made a stop gesture, and said: "Slow, my hands and feet are frozen all the way, you need to let me move my muscles and bones, don't you object." ”

Shigang Yiyu was suddenly angry, and his face showed an impatient look, but he still maintained the bearing of a great master, waved his hand to signal Li Xiao to continue, and at the same time continued to resume the posture of putting his hands on his chest and closing his eyes to recuperate.

Li Xiao secretly sneered, and slowly soothed the warm-up exercise of his hands and feet.

After waiting for a long while, Li Xiao saw that Shigang Yiyu gradually couldn't bear it anymore, and then he said, "Let's start." ”

After Li Xiao finished speaking, he took his big gun from Dao Shengmeng's hand, waved it forward, and opened the door and posture. And Shigang Yiyu looked at Li Xiaobu's katana at his waist, turned to the gun and was slightly stunned, and asked, "Aren't you using a knife?" Why did you suddenly switch to guns? ”

Li Xiao smiled indifferently and replied, "Who told you that I used a knife, and the weapon I am really good at is this bar." Look at the guns! ”

With that, Li Xiao rushed forward, and Shigang Yiyu saw Li Xiao attacking, and he also pulled out the scabbard and held it across his chest.

After dragging the tip of the spear in Li Xiao's hand in the snow for several meters, he suddenly flipped up, lifted the snow powder in the sky, and covered Shi Gang Yiyu's whole body with his head and face.

At this moment, Li Xiao withdrew the big gun, shouted, and swung forward the strongest shot he had prepared for a long time!

Between the duel of life and death, dare to be so big, go to death, Shigang Yiyu. Li Xiao said secretly in his heart.
