Chapter 19: Knife Genius
Have you ever tried to hold something in your hand and feel like it's connected by blood, like it's like a part of your body, enough to use it and direct it like a finger?
The moment the knife was tightly held in Liu Qing's hand, when he chose a wooden stake as his target, an impulse was inexplicably born in his heart, which broke through the shackles of reason and almost controlled his body. He held the knife in both hands, his left hand on top and his right hand down again, and after two broken steps, he took a long step, raised the long knife and slashed it down. A cold light slashed diagonally at a position only about ten centimeters away from the stake, and then the knife was retracted.
The sound of sharp tools tearing through the air was faintly heard, and the blade of the knife hummed, and a crack appeared on the stake as if it had been slashed. The sawdust that was chopped by the knife qi was blown away into the distance by the wind, and Liu Qing looked at the knife marks on the stake, and his mind was blank.
He didn't even cut into the stake, which was a ...... Knife gas?
There was a gleam in his eyes, and he disappeared without a trace in the first moment. He slowly put away the sword in front of him, and the thumb and index finger of his left hand were brought together to form a sword finger, pressing on the body of the knife and gently rubbing it, recalling the feeling that his body had just gone from stationary to extremely active and then back to stationary. The cold blade had the texture of metal, and there was not the slightest trace of damage or slashing on the blade, and he took a deep breath, finally realizing that he had really encountered something terrible.
He is actually very familiar with the sword qi, he has read so many martial arts novels in his last life, not to mention the sword qi, sword qi, even the hammer gang he knows. But knowing that it is completely different from using it by himself, especially when he can fully imagine the pleasure brought when he slashes down with a knife and is blocked by the other party, the contempt and arrogance on the other party's face just appear, and the knife qi tears through the other party's body!
It's an exhilarating feeling just to think about, simple, direct, brutal!
This is the empty mountain, a top-level technique in knife art. But even if it is such a technique, among the special abilities given to Liu Qing by this knife, it is only marked as intermediate, so what is the more advanced technique? Is that kind of sword qi that swings out nine thousand miles long, swaying for 90,000 miles, and tearing the sky and the sky is advanced? Or is it more dazzling, with stronger characteristics, and an indestructible technique that is an advanced technique?
He didn't know, but he was looking forward to it very much, and he also vaguely found at this time that only by constantly using this knife would there be that lottery-like turntable, and he would be able to get more magical techniques.
Liu Qing groaned slightly, and the long knife was still sheathed, making him look a little funny. The little man had a knife that seemed to be a little longer than his height, and it was a bit bulky. But he didn't care at all, straightened his clothes, and immediately walked towards the remote residence, where the other clansmen lived.
In the Renaritsuki family's mansion, the main family lived in the middle of the mansion near the gate, while the rest of the clan lived in a circle close to the wall. In addition to highlighting the status and authority of the Lord's family, it also means defending the Lord's family.
As soon as Liu Qing appeared in the remote residence, someone immediately greeted him, "Grandpa Qingzi, hello." It was the big housekeeper of the Ren Wuyue family, Ren Wuyue Qingzi, after entering this family, Liu Qing already knew something he should know. For example, Qingzi's seniority is the highest in the entire Ren Wuyue family, and according to the family's conventions, he can become the elder of the family and enjoy his old age in peace.
But he never relented, saying that he would only consider becoming a hidden old man on the day when he couldn't do it, otherwise he would have to work for the rest of his life. Qingzi has not made a mistake for decades, and her reputation in the family is also very positive, and many people even respect Qingzi far more than they respect Orange Light. Even if it is Orange Light himself, he also attaches great importance and respect to Qingzi, after all, this is his uncle's generation.
"Young Master of the Holy Kingdom, is there something wrong?" , All the maids in the main residence where the main family lives, there are any small things that can be ordered to be done, Liu Qing ran so far Obviously, there are some things that they can't do.
Liu Qing nodded and patted the long knife that was about to be hung, "Grandpa Qingzi, I want to practice some swordsmanship, you know that both the Ren Wuyue family and the Yuchuan family are from samurai backgrounds, and I don't want to lose the glory of the family because I have practiced ninjutsu." β
Qing Zi looked at Liu Qing with some surprise, in front of this ninjutsu power that dominated the world, there were still people who thought of cultivating sword skills, which was really amazing. In particular, he vaguely felt that the attitude of the head of the family towards Liu Qing had changed subtly, and even invited Shangnin to be a teacher. He wouldn't be naΓ―ve enough to think that Orange Light invited Shangnin purely for Qingchuan, you must know that before Liu Qing appeared, Qingchuan's professorship was all in charge of Miaoyin.
For Qingchuan, who has just come into contact with ninjutsu, Miaoyin's knowledge of ninjas and ninjutsu is completely enough to take on the job of teaching schoolwork, so why do you have to invite another ninja alone? It must be because there is a person in Liu Qing or Qingchuan whose talent and qualifications are beyond Orange Light's expectations, so in order to avoid Miao Yin's mistakes in the process of teaching schoolwork, there must be a more professional, more powerful person who knows more about ninjas and ninjutsu to do this.
Decades of experience in receiving people and treating things make Qingzi not deliberately ignore anyone, he would rather believe that everything Orange Light does is for Liu Qing, and he will not treat Liu Qing like an ordinary child. The older a person is, the more he values his family and glory.
He immediately groaned, and after a long moment, he nodded, "I can have someone teach you swordsmanship, but you must promise me one condition." β
Liu Qing put her legs together very respectfully, put her hands in front of her, and bent her body slightly, "Please speak." β
Qing Zi was still very happy about Liu Qing's respect, which showed that this kid had enough identification with this family, he stroked a small handful of gray beard on his chin, and said with a smile: "Behind all the big things in the past hundred years, all of them have proved that ninjutsu is the power that can ultimately influence fate. I don't object to you learning swordsmanship, but you can't focus on swordsmanship, ninjutsu is the key to your future, understand? β
"Yes!" , Liu Qing's voice was very loud, I don't know if I was afraid that Qingzi would not be able to hear clearly behind my ears when she was old, or if I wanted to show my determination, "I will definitely focus on ninjutsu, don't worry, Grandpa Qingzi." β
Qing Zi nodded with a smile, reached out and rubbed the soft hair on Liu Qing's head, "Okay, you come with me, I'll take you to meet someone." β
As the two walked, Qingzi introduced, "The Ren Wuyue family used to be one of the most valued martial artists of the thirteenth generation of daimyos, and the head of the family at that time, Ren Wuyue Shijing, was also known as one of the Seven Samurai of Fire. Although the Ren Muyue family seems to have been out of the realm of the martial arts family for so many years, within the family, there is still a group of people who are inheriting the techniques left by the Ten Masters back then, which is also one of the secrets of the core of the family. β
Qingzi glanced at Liu Qing beside him, and said earnestly: "You and Qingchuan are the descendants of the family that they value the most, and the burden of the family will be handed over to you in the future, so there are some things that can be let you know in advance." The Blue Wind we visited this time is the head of the family's samurai, and he will teach you everything about swordsmanship. Again, don't delay the cultivation of ninjutsu just because you have cultivated swordsmanship. β
The two talked a lot along the way, most of the time Qingzi was talking and Liu Qing was listening. There is also a reason why the family forbids children and young people to practice swordsmanship. Compared to ninjutsu, a power that requires more time to accumulate and practice, it is clear that sword art has a greater and more intuitive power in the early stages. Just like Qingchuan now, don't look at the fact that he has begun to practice the stand-in technique, and he has also accumulated a certain amount of chakra.
But if he went to fight a samurai who had also been cultivating for a while, he would most likely be defeated, and if he fought for his life, he would even die.
The initial stage of sword art does not require any accumulation, it is all about technique and mastery of strength, as long as it is done well and with some small talent, the blade can cut most things. Compared to a beginner ninja, the lethality is much stronger. It is also this kind of superficial strength that will make some children who are not firm enough in their hearts gradually indulge in the illusion that the sword can cut everything, and gradually ignore the cultivation of ninjutsu.
Therefore, even if someone in the family wants to practice swordsmanship, they must wait until they become adults, have mature thoughts and certain experience, and can only practice swordsmanship when they have the correct three views.
As for why Qingzi would agree to Liu Qing's cultivation of swordsmanship, ...... old man thought that geniuses were definitely different!
With this, it is enough.
When Liu Qing saw the blue wind of Ren Wuyue, he had the feeling of watching a Japanese samurai movie in the sixties and seventies in a trance. He was dressed in a white shirt with a vertical jacket and a double-open hakama underneath, and sat cross-legged on a stone with a sword on his lap. In front of him were about twenty young men, fighting with wooden knives. The young men were not wearing any protective gear, and they were often screaming from a stab with a layer of paint on the wooden knives, which left visible marks when hit on people.
As if hearing a noise, Lan Feng opened his eyes, his eyes were as sharp as a blade, as if he could hurt people invisibly. He glanced at it, and immediately jumped down from the stone, bowing slightly, "Lord Qingzi, why are you here?" β
Qing Zi kept smiling, and his hand pressed on Liu Qing's shoulder, "This is the young master of the Holy Kingdom of the main family, you have seen it." β
I have indeed seen it, Lan Feng saw Liu Qing during the family banquet, he paused, and then looked at Qing Zi with some doubts, Qing Zi continued: "The Young Master of the Holy Kingdom is also very interested in swordsmanship, and you will personally be in charge of the Young Master of the Holy Kingdom's swordsmanship for a period of time in the future, starting from the basics, every step must be strict, understand?" β
Lan Feng immediately said yes, but the doubts in his eyes still existed, but in front of Liu Qing, it was not easy to ask.
As if seeing Lan Feng's thoughts, Qingzi patted Liu Qing's shoulder and said with a pleasant face: "You go and see them practice first." β
This was to send him away, and Liu Qing had no reason to stay, he immediately bowed his head, and then bowed to Lan Feng and left the neighborhood.
No matter what Qing Zi and Lan Feng said, in short, Liu Qing began to practice the sword art class.
After coming back from outside with a red face in the evening, Qingzi told Orange Light about it, Orange Light was originally a little angry, such a genius is so dignified that he doesn't practice ninjutsu, and runs to practice swordsmanship to waste time and talent, isn't it too messy. But Qingzi's words later made Orange Light's anger recede like a tide.
"Some things can't be covered, and sooner or later they will be exposed, and it is better to give them a wrong direction than to be lifted in the end." , Qing Zi laughed when he said this, "If the young master of the Holy Kingdom is a genius in swordsmanship......
Orange Light pointed at Qingzi and laughed.
Yes, if the Young Master of the Holy Kingdom is a genius in swordsmanship, I'm afraid there won't be so many people who pay attention to him, and everyone's eyes will still stay on Qingchuan's body.
An ordinary genius would not have caused some radicals in the village to think wildly.
That's it!
