Chapter 20: On the Road
"A swordsman who can cut everything can cut everything he wants!"
Master Koshiro's words caused Makino to think deeply.
In this regard, Makino's interpretation is the "subtle control" of power, which is explained by the professional vocabulary of the online articles I have seen in my previous life, which is "subtle".
If you lift lightly, if you lift weight, you can use it wonderfully, and you can keep it in one mind!
But if you want to control the "subtleties", it is not as simple as Makino imagined, perhaps Makino has not found a shortcut to effective cultivation.
To make matters worse, there are no prompts on the system side.
In other words, there is no tree species that can master the "subtle" realm just by watering the energy.
Makino was a little confused, and he didn't know how to start at all.
At this moment, Sauron, who was holding two bamboo knives on the left and on the right, ran over.
"Makino, come and fight me!"
Makino was surprised, "You should know my strength, and you still decided to challenge me?" ”
Zoro gave a cool wicked smile, "Is the gap between us bigger than you and Master Koshiro?" I'm a man who wants to become the world's number one swordsman, and if even you and Master Koshiro can't defeat me, then I'll never be able to become the world's number one swordsman? ”
Makino looked at Zoro in amazement, and then smiled.
"Zoro, I admit you. In every battle between me and you in the future, I will be serious! ”
Distance produces beauty, and cultivating in a dojo made Makino's worship of Suo Da begin to be a little disillusioned.
But at this moment, he suddenly felt that the little kid in front of him was still the same recipe and the same taste as the Suo Da he once admired.
Zoro put on a two-knife posture and shouted, "It's long overdue, I'm on!" ”
Rub and go!
Zoro strode forward, brandishing two knives like Makino killing.
Bang!
Makino cut down, and Zoro immediately threw himself into the street.
Sauron, who had a red bar on his face, raised the bamboo sword in his hand, and said with high morale, "Two knives can't work, I'll practice three, Makino, you wait for me!" ”
Seeing Sauron Tiger leaving, Makino was suddenly a little touched.
In the past, Zoro's frustration and courage became more and more courageous, although it also shocked Makino, but he has never felt it so empathetic as now.
Everyone knows that "failure is the mother of success", but after all the hard work, there are still failures again and again, and who can continue to challenge as always?
Think about himself, he just failed the challenge once, and he was hit to the point that he couldn't do it.
Compared to Zoro, he is really far behind in this regard.
"The more frustrated you are, the more courageous you are?"
Makino looked at the small courtyard where Koshiro lived, and couldn't help but smile evilly.
......
Morning.
After a day's morning class, Makino came to Koshiro's side.
"Master, please today!"
Koshiro smiled, "Yes! ”
After a few seconds.
Makino was slashed black by Koshiro's hand knife, and then he didn't know anything.
I don't know how long it has been, but Makino's first thought after waking up was-
Wori, Koshiro is really ruthless, and he actually cut him unconscious.
......
Hahey!
Hahey!
Ordinary students use bamboo knives for chopping exercises, while Makino directly uses real swords; The average student runs 10 laps, while Makino runs 20 laps or 30 laps directly with weights;
Chopping practice, the average person chops a thousand times; Makino has been directly increased from 10,000 to 20,000 and 30,000!
......
Another afternoon.
"Master, thank you for your hard work!"
Koshiro yawned lazily, looking lazy as "who sleeps first in a big dream, and sleeps late in the spring in the grass hall".
But in the next second, Makino's eyes went dark and he fell to the ground.
Wozh!
This is too shady!
Koshiro, aren't you always kind squints?
The characters are all collapsed!
Koshiro didn't care, still smiling, "Makino, your vigilance is still too low!" ”
Makino: "......"
O wickedness of a loyal and honest man!
Father and daughter are passed down in the same vein!
......
Night.
Makino bowed to Koshiro and said, "Master, Xin ......"
As soon as Makino was halfway through his words, his figure suddenly disappeared, and in the next second, he slashed horizontally with a sword, cutting into Koshiro's legs.
But in the next second, Makino's body appeared on the sole of Koshiro's shoe.
The lesson of this sneak attack was so tragic that cobweb-like cracks appeared where the body and the earth touched.
Koshiro: "Breathing, heartbeat, before the sneak attack, your breathing and heartbeat were messed up!" ”
Makino vomits blood.
Koshiro really doesn't treat him as an apprentice, this is all a dead hand, it must be a dead hand!!
......
Showers.
Makino was stabbed in the abdomen by Koshiro's bamboo sword, and his body and face were soaked with rain.
The stab was so painful that Makino suspected he was crying.
Heat.
Makino, who was desperately short of water, was dizzy from the sun, and then the battle began.
The tsunami came, and the fighting continued.
The temperature plummeted, the fever was raised, and the battle continued.
Sudden hail weather, the head was smashed with hail and blood, and the battle continued......
As time passed, Makino became more and more aware of what it meant to be "squinting and monsters".
......
"Concentrate, whether you are Su Zhen, Makino, chopping target trees, or even running with weights, you can quickly get into the state. Why do you keep looking forward and backward when you fight me? ”
"Concentration, your state of concentration, can only be used for practice? So what's the point of your usual desperate practice? ”
"On the battlefield, any insignificant element may affect the outcome of the battle. The battlefield is a whole, not for you to focus entirely on the enemy! ”
Isn't that inconsistent?
Makino couldn't complain, but Koshiro didn't mean to explain.
"As a swordsman, the sword is a second life. The sword is sharp, but it is also fragile, what do you take the sword for? ”
"As a swordsman, even a broken blade is a shame, you have to learn to cut everything you want to cut with your sword, not let what you want to slash in turn shatter your sword!"
Even if he broke the bamboo knife, it would be a lesson in the face.
Koshiro almost used a stick to deepen his memory of this idea.
Makino cried.
Shouldn't the effect of using a bamboo stick to hit a divine weapon be done after being wrapped in an armed color domineering?
I'm thinking about peaches!
But Koshiro didn't care at all, and he never mentioned a word about domineering cultivation.
......
"It's normal for a swordsman to encounter a strong enemy, and if he falls to the disadvantage, he can't do anything? Defense is also for counter-offensive! Go back and copy the idea of One Heart Flow a hundred times! ”
"Breathe, control your breathing, sense the enemy's breath. Everything has its own breath, you have to learn to hear the source of the attack and the weakness of the attack from the breath! ”
"Scared of a thunderbolt? The so-called swordsman, even if the five thunders hit the top, he must have the courage to cut off with a sword. Makino, you're so dependent on your fruit abilities that the amount is too small! ”
......
Time passed day by day, and the ordinary students of the Yixin Dojo soon discovered an extremely strange phenomenon.
Zoro desperately looks for abuse here in Makino every day, and Makino looks for abuse here in Koshiro every day.
As for Guina, after fighting Zoro, she went to Makino to look for abuse.
But what made these ordinary students of the Yixin Dojo couldn't figure it out was that these three people seemed to be enjoying themselves.
That's right, just have fun!
Even Zoro, who is at the bottom and is abused by Makino and Guina in turn every day, seems to be in a very good mood.
The ordinary students were so frightened that they could only practice desperately every day, so that the overall strength of the Yixin Dojo soared by more than a few grades!
The funniest thing is a peer exchange, Makino, Zoro, Guina and other main forces didn't make a move, and the peers who came to "friendly exchanges" were beaten by an inconspicuous little bald head in the Yixin Dojo and doubted their lives.
The years have passed, and in the blink of an eye, a year has passed.
Makino's strength has grown by leaps and bounds, and he has already reached a realm that is unimaginable even for teaching.
As for the kendo tree and physique tree in the courtyard of the gods, they have already become leafy, and compared to a year ago, I don't know how much they have flourished.
Even in the face of Koshiro, he can fight back and forth, but he still can't fight back effectively.
As for what Koshiro said, "A swordsman who can cut everything can cut everything he wants", he still couldn't touch the threshold.
But to Makino's surprise, when he challenged Koshiro again, Koshiro refused for the first time.
Koshiro was still smiling, but to Makino's astonishment, Koshiro's eyes were full of relief.
"Makino, that's the end of the challenge, I don't have anything to teach you anymore!"
Makino was stunned.
What do you mean by "there is nothing left to teach"?
His current strength and Koshiro are still good at judging whether it is good or not!
Makino tried to defend himself, but was stopped by Koshiro.
Koshiro: "Makino, you are a rare genius I have ever seen, and your talent, perseverance, and chance are not bad. People are like swords, swords are like people, the last piece of advice for the teacher is - drawing a sword is always the last resort to solve the problem, think twice before drawing a sword; Once you draw your sword, don't regret it! ”
For some reason, Makino actually saw a trace of loneliness in Koshiro.
I'm afraid this advice is the summary of Koshiro's life!
"Master Xie's kindness, you have worked hard this year!"
The man has gold under his knees, and the habit of imprinting into his soul in his previous life makes Makino look very seriously at kneeling.
But this worship, Makino is sincere and convinced!
This year, he challenged day after day, and Koshiro went from being casual at the beginning to becoming more and more strict later, so that Makino learned too much, too much.
Seeing Makino's performance, Koshiro smiled and nodded.
"Get up!"
"Opening a dojo, it's my luck to be able to accept a disciple with such a talent and good heart as you!"
"Next, you can cultivate by yourself, pass my final assessment, and in the future, you can teach the Yixinliu Sword Technique to the outside world!"
Makino was full of feelings, and finally condensed into one word, "Yes!" ”
