CHAPTER 70. Master Kurohiko
Continue to go deeper into the backyard, the surrounding environment changes more and more, small bridge pond, a man-made small flowing waterfall, a bamboo water to chase the deer, 'ding', the deer knock on the stone, crisp and pleasant.
This is a typical old-fashioned Japanese garden, with courtyards, corridors, doors and windows, neat, clean and full of Zen flavor, giving people a freehand and comfortable taste..... Well, Li Hao has changed his opinion, this dojo is not shabby at all! It's just its portal that's broken, and it's not shabby at all.
Keisuke took Li Hao across the bridge and came to the left side of the house, a thin old man with gray hair and neat combs was sitting on the floor with his eyes closed, basking in the sun comfortably, a cup of tea was placed at his feet, emitting a faint mist and smoke.
How do you say that feeling? Anyway, Li Hao, he instantly had a feeling that the old man was definitely not simple.
"Mr. Kurohiko." A middle-aged man named Keisuke walked up to the old man and called out to him respectfully, and it could be seen from his expression that he really respected and loved this old man from the bottom of his heart.
"It's Keisuke, what's the matter, did you bring a guest?" The old man had an expression of honor and disgrace, slowly opened his eyes, and his gaze was directly on Li Hao.
Between the opening and closing of the old man's gaze, those eyes were not at all like ordinary old men, their eyes were dim, but extremely bright, and the sharp gaze was like a physical blade....
Li Hao: "!! ”
Chirp...
At that moment, Li Hao even felt that he couldn't look at the old man, and the old man's gaze flashed like a blade's cold light at that moment, making him can't help but want to close his eyes, and in an instant, the hairs on the back of his neck stood up, his body tensed, and he instinctively put on a stress reaction to attack, and the purple thunder light wrapped around the crimson magic power instantly came out of his body, and he almost couldn't help but directly stab a thousand bird sharp spear directly!
Li Hao was extremely surprised, obviously the old man in front of him looked no threat, and he didn't feel any energy fluctuations from the old man at all, and the dry and aging body didn't seem to have much strength, but... The sense of threat like a sword against his skin made him dare not underestimate this old man at all.
"Li Hao.. You?! Keisuke, the sect leader standing beside Li Hao, was startled, and subconsciously retreated away from Li Hao, staring at him with a pair of eyes in disbelief.
"....." Li Hao was silent for a few seconds, then dissipated the condensed magic power, and apologized, "I'm sorry, the master's power and gaze are too amazing, and he lost his temper in the next time, and I apologize to you here." ”
"Huh." The old man known as Kurohiko smiled indifferently, took a small sip of the teacup at his feet, and then said lightly, "Xiaoyou don't have to be so polite to me, an old man, I don't know what happened to Xiaoyou's coming?" ”
Li Hao said: "The purpose of my trip is to worship under your door and learn swordsmanship from you, and I ask you to agree." ”
"Oh?" The old man glanced at Li Hao with some surprise, then shook his head with a smile, "Hehe, Xiaoyou, with your strength, the old man and I will definitely not be your opponent, so what can you learn from the old man and me?" With the old man's ability, he can't teach you. ”
The implication is that the old man is reluctant to teach Li Hao.
If it was at the beginning, Yixin Dojo was unwilling to teach him, Li Hao would definitely turn around and leave, it's a big deal to change the family, but now, he has to try his best! If nothing else, just because this old man can make him feel dangerous and even almost lose his temper as an ordinary person, it is enough to prove that the old man in front of him is by no means ordinary.
Li Hao asked, "Why did the seniors reject me?" Could it be because I am from another country, or because I am a teacher to learn art? ”
"It's both." The old man did not shy away from it, and replied directly, "I can feel that the powerful power in Xiaoyou's body can even be said to be the only time the old man has seen it in his life, and Xiaoyou already has such power at a young age, so why do you have to join the old man's door?" That's my first concern.
Then, the lineage of my lineage belongs to the traditional samurai, and does not also practice chakra, so in my opinion, even if you want to practice swordsmanship, you should also look for the inheritance of those new samurai. ”
Li Hao bowed deeply to the old man and said, "I want to worship my predecessors and practice swordsmanship, and I ask my seniors to agree." ”
The old man never responded, and Li Hao refused to get up, still maintaining the movement of bending down and bowing, and after a long time, it was the head of the sect called Keisuke who broke the deadlock.
"Your Excellency Li Hao." Keisuke stepped forward and said, "Master Kurohiko's meaning has been clearly expressed, the Ichishin Dojo will not accept you as a student, so you better go back!" ”
Now, the meaning of the master's family is indeed very clear, and Li Hao can only sigh helplessly in his heart, and choose to give up, otherwise what else? Isn't it possible that people are forced to teach him swordsmanship? He wouldn't do anything like that.
"It's a shame." Li Hao straightened up and sighed, "Since Master Hei Yan has always refused to accept Zaixia's words, then Zaixia can only say goodbye." ”
He nodded at the old man, then turned to leave.
"Wait, little friend."
Li Hao turned his head abruptly and asked, "What?" Has Master Kurohiko changed his attention? ”
The old man looked at Li Hao with deep eyes and said, "Originally, I would never teach the swordsmanship of people from other countries, but now, under my door, a regrettable thing has happened, and Xiaoyou may be able to help." ”
"I want to hear about it." Li Hao raised his eyebrows, he probably guessed that the old man stopped himself, and whether he could learn swordsmanship from the old man, I am afraid that it was in the matter he was going to talk about next, but he didn't know why the old man suddenly said this to him.
"Kurohiko-sensei! Could it be that you..."The old man's words made Kaisuke's face change greatly, and he just wanted to open his mouth to say something, but he was directly stopped by the old man.
"That's it! Keisuke, stand still and don't disturb. The old man raised his hand to stop Keisuke's next words, then raised his eyes to look at Li Hao, and said quietly: "I'm not afraid of Xiaoyou's jokes when I say it, the old man has received a total of three personal disciples in his life, and one of them is Keisuke in front of Xiaoyou."
In addition, there are two senior brothers above him, and these two people, one died young, and the other... He became a traitor who killed his brother and rebelled against the family!
Moreover, my unfilial traitor disciple is still alive and well, he has betrayed the sect a long time ago and switched to a new school.
Now, in the old man's vein, there is no one who is the opponent of the traitor, not even the old man himself.... I don't have the ability to clean up portals anymore. ”
Li Hao looked at the old man with some doubts, he probably understood what the old man meant, but there was one point, but it made him feel very strange, why did the old man ask him for help with such a thing? They've just met, haven't they? It's a bit too abrupt.
And the old man was also at this time, he spoke: "If Xiaoyou can bring back the head of my traitorous disciple, the old man promises that he will definitely teach Xiaoyou what I have learned in my own life!" ”
