Miyagawa Yong was supported by his disciples, his steps were staggering, and when he walked past Uesugi Kiyoshi, he glanced at him with a dejected look in his eyes, and actually smiled.

The figure of Uesugi Kiyoshi reflected in his pupils was full of the vigor he had when he was twenty years old.

“...”

left without a word, leaving only Xiao Suo's back.

A handful of Chang Zeng Mihu Che and a handful of California Qingguang were lying alone on the ground not far away, but their masters turned a deaf ear.

If you lose, you can go, but you can't take the sword.

The swordsman team of the new selection group is clearly divided into two teams.

One team escorted Miyagawa away, and the other team guarded behind Ito Daizo.

It seems that in the new selection group, there are already two distinct factions.

Uesugi Kiyoshi hooked his fingers, a rib gap, a knife, and was driven to fly into his hand.

Nagazen Mitoru sword blade is cold, blood is shining, but the appearance is ordinary, and even ugly, but Uesugi Kiyoshi is quite satisfied - the second day first-class itself is a long and a short two knives to maximize the power, and he is difficult to find a suitable rib difference to use, so the two ghost cuts that have been used can only be said to be unsatisfactory.

Now it seems that this Chang Zeng Mihu is quite handy.

The other California Kiyomitsu is more ordinary, it is said that this is the saber of Okita Soji back then, Uesugi Kiyoshi was not interested, swept a few glances, and threw it back.

"Oh, Maki, loot."

"Hold it for fun, or I'll teach you the second sword flow next time - with the strength and speed of your sword just now, I think it's easy to control two knives."

Higashiwen Maki's injuries are already healed, only a small hole in the lower abdomen of Sakura's Zhensleeve is broken, and there is a circle of blood stains, which can prove that she has been injured.

She reached out and held the knife in her hand, and the first thing she paid attention to was not the image and quality.

"It's... A gift from me, sir? ”

That was her first thought.

Then, the corners of his mouth curled up with a pleasure that could not be concealed, and he secretly glanced at Uesugi Kiyoshi, and then lowered his head to look at the knife in his hand, and his soul flew out of the sky, not knowing what he was thinking.

Uesugi Kiyoshi didn't notice Maki Higashi's distraction, shook his hand, patted his cheek, as if to completely sweep away the ferocious aura on his face, and then, with a gentle smile that was harmless to humans and animals, he turned to Ito Daizo and bowed slightly.

"Ito-senpai, the situation was critical just now, and there was no formal greeting and salutation, please don't blame you."

At this time, Uesugi Kiyoshi is modest and polite, and his literary quality is polite, where is the appearance of a fierce god who has just cut people?

Ito Daizo stretched out his hand to help Uesugi Kiyoshi up, also with a smile on his face, shaking his head again and again.

"Where, don't blame me for just watching from the sidelines - it's not that I'm unwilling to make a move, Mr. Shangquan has communicated with me again and again, saying that he has found a piece of rare talent and beautiful jade in the world, at a young age, but whether it is temperament or swordsmanship, he is deep in his heart, and wants to teach what he has learned all his life and put the burden of the new Yin Liu in his hands."

"I'm also a swordsman, I'm curious, so I want to see you make a move, try your catties."

"It was a real eye-opener."

"Looking at the whole of Kyoto, it is definitely difficult to find a swordsman who can stabilize Miyagawa Yu's head in swordsmanship, I have been with him for many years, although he looks like a god, but as an opponent, we know each other better."

"Speaking of swordsmanship, whether it's a fight or a life-and-death fight, I'm not his opponent."

"But he didn't last much longer under your hands—what do you say?"

Ito Daizo has some mixed tastes and a bitter smile.

After all, genius is one of the factors that can hit "ordinary people" the most.

"I can only say that I am worthy of being a disciple of Mr. Shangizumi, and I am convinced."

Uesugi Kiyoshi smiled slightly, not smiling because of a few compliments, he asked softly, "Ito-senpai." ”

"Master only told me your name, not your identity—you call me junior brother, right... Are you also a disciple of the teacher? ”

Ito Daizo hurriedly waved his hand and shook his head, his face full of regret.

"No, no, no, I'm not a disciple of Shangquan Sensei, I'm just a student at best."

There is still a difference between a student and a disciple.

In school, the teacher teaches the students, and a teacher may teach hundreds or thousands of students in his lifetime.

But when the master accepts disciples, he will not open his mouth easily, and if he does, he will take great pains to train - at least in the kendo world.

In terminology, it's the difference between "external transmission" and "internal transmission".

The outer disciples, learn a little fur, and the inner disciples, all they learn are secret skills.

"When I was young, I met Mr. Umiizumi and was saved by him, and even the mirror of inheritance that linked to Koshitaro Ito was given to me by Mr. Umiizumi."

"He instructed me in swordsmanship, taught me how to resist the enemy and kill ghosts, and entrusted a friend to place me in the new selection group, so that I could have a place to live."

"Kindness and reconstruction, I will not be able to repay it in this life."

"I also want to invest in the name of Teacher Shangquan, but unfortunately, my qualifications are dull and I can't get into the eyes of his old man, but fortunately, I still have the identity of a registered disciple, and I am also qualified to call him a teacher."

"Now that I see Senior Brother Uesugi, the first thing I see is that I am chivalrous, and when I entered the teacher, I was really blue."

"Senior brother, don't worry, although I don't have any background, but I have been in Kyoto for all these years, and I have a good reputation, so when you encounter something, just talk to me."

"I promised the teacher that I would take good care of you, and we will be under the new Yin Sect... Always walk the talk! ”

There are some words, regardless of sincerity or insincerity, saying them can warm people's hearts.

Ito Daizo smiled softly and said the words of the oath, which made Uesugi Kiyoshi feel a lot better.

It's a nice feeling to be taken care of.

This kind of thing Ito Daizo will not lie, since the master said that he can be trusted, then there is probably no problem, Uesugi Kiyoshi nodded in favor of the situation.

"Then I will thank Senior Brother in advance, and I will ask you to take care of me in the future."

"Hmm... Regarding the matter of the imperial pre-trial integration, I also ask the senior brother to bother a lot, the master asked me to come to a senior brother of the Yanagi family, which means that I will follow the usual process, and the matter of favoritism and cheating, presumably the master does not want to see it. ”

"His old man asked me to try to pick up the name of a sword hero in front of the emperor, although I don't know how to do it, but I don't want to take off a false title."

"It's just... As Senior Brother said, you still need to worry about the challenge. ”

"I'm not guilty of any grievances with Miyagawa in the past, but I can't look past his actions, and it just so happens that my senior brother is also in an important position in the Shinsengumi, so we might as well join forces... Let the senior brother also sit in the position of the chief officer. ”

"After all... This position is occupied by those who can live. ”

"I don't think Master's students can be cowards who compromise with reality like Isamu Miyagawa."

Ito Ikō smiled knowingly, and somewhat proudly held the hilt of the sword at his waist.

"This junior brother can rest assured, I don't dare to say that I am a good person, but I will never use the way Miyagawa Yong acts."

"When I was learning art with Mr. Quan, he had a teaching in his old age."

"Punish the traitor and eliminate the evil, protect the party, my generation of swordsmen, it is incumbent!"

"I keep these words in my heart day and night, and I dare not forget them."

"Hmph... If I really become a person like Isamu Miyagawa in the future..."

"Then please ask my junior brother to take my head!"
