Episode.12 Angels by Your Side (8)

Kagura Yui walked over with a long bag in his hand, dressed in a white tracksuit, his long black hair tied in a bunch, and his delicate face was not at all detracted by his serious expression.

Li Qiumu hurriedly stood up, while Brando still sat in place and watched Kagura slowly approach.

"Good day, Commander. Kagura nodded to Brando and looked at Li Qiumu: "Mr. Li Qiumu, there is no doubt about the price of 500 contributions, right?"

Li Qiumu shook his head.

"Then let's get started, first of all, I want to tell you that this set of Tang knife techniques has been passed down from my family, although it is not extremely secret, but please don't pass it on at will. ”

Li Qiumu nodded.

"Good. Kagura nodded and continued, "First of all, how much do you know about Tang Dao?"

"The Tang knife is the knife of the Tang Dynasty, and it was later transmitted to Japan to form the Japanese sword. Li Qiumu scratched his head and thought about it and said.

On Kagura's white forehead, you can see a green tendon jumping.

He sighed and said, "Let's start at the beginning." Tang knives are divided into four types: Mo knife, horizontal knife, instrument knife, and barrier knife.

The Mo knife is inherited from the Han Dynasty horse sword, which is a long-handled weapon, which should be similar to the Japanese big gun in China.

The barrier knife and horizontal knife are the swords of guards and ordinary soldiers, and they are basically lost like the Mo knife.

The ceremonial sword was a weapon of the imperial army and guards, and it was spread to our country and formed the current Japanese sword.

The set of Tang knife techniques I want to teach you is preserved by the family through wind and rain, and my uncle is fond of ritual knives, so he sorted out this set of techniques, improved them and taught me. ”

Kagura opened the long bag and pulled out a long knife from it, about a meter long, with a jet-black scabbard and hilt, which immediately made Li Qiumu's eyes light up and handsome.

Kagura stuck the scabbard on the ground, drew out the long knife, supported the back of the knife with one hand, and continued: "This is a batch of Tang knives that my uncle gathered the family craftsmen to forge using the ancient "Hundred Steel" technique, and later gave me a few of them, and I brought 2 of them. After speaking, he handed the knife to Li Qiumu.

Li Qiumu took it with both hands, pressed his joy, and carefully observed the Tang knife in his hand.

The blade is straight, without curvature, and there is a ridge on the back of the knife.

The tip of the knife is "cut and edged" and has no curvature, like the "7" in Arabic numerals.

The thickness of the blade near the handle is the thickest, and then it is evenly reduced to the tip of the knife.

The knife stall under the blade is diamond-shaped, which is relatively small.

The handle is jet-black, and the upper and lower ends are inlaid with gold flakes.

Kagura's voice sounded again: "The handles and scabbards of these two knives are made of hundred-year-old gold camphor collected by my uncle, and the back is black, and the inlays are all gold. The blade length is 76 cm, the handle length is 26 cm, the blade is 3.2 cm wide, the back of the knife is 0.7 cm thick, the total weight is 2 kg, and the knife weighs 1.1 kg. Have you finished reading? ”

"Well, Kagura-san, let's get started. Li Qiumu held the long knife in his hand and looked excited.

Kagura shook his head, took out another knife, and said: "Tang knife is different from Japanese swords, not only the pursuit of cutting speed, but also requires a knife to break armor, than the starting battle, it is more suitable for immediate chopping, the basic method is to chop and stab, and the training of Taidao is still the same, let's practice wielding the knife first." See clearly. ”

Holding the sword in both hands, Kagura stretched it diagonally backwards, then moved the knife from the side to the top of his head, and slashed diagonally down, with a terrible sound of breaking wind, and then abruptly stopped in front of him, Kagura danced a sword flower and inserted the sword into the scabbard.

"This is the most common and basic chop, it needs to be mastered well, you carry a load, in the afternoon you want to learn natural communication, then 1000 chops a day. Kagura glanced at Brando, who was sitting on the sidelines and watched, and said: "The martial arts are all in one, the head of the regiment is an S-class warrior, and he will outperform me a lot, and I will leave the sword, if you don't know how to ask the head of the regiment, I will come back in 3 days." ”

After saying that, he owed a debt to Brando and left.

Li Qiumu didn't mention the chopping training in the morning, and in the afternoon, Brando came to Li Qiumu's room.

Li Qiumu had woken up and sat on the sofa watching TV with Lei.

Brando pressed Li Qiumu, who wanted to stand up, sat next to him, and said, "This training just needs to be explained, you listen carefully." ”

Li Qiumu nodded. He continued: "Before you start trying to communicate with the free soul particles of nature, you need to understand a few things, I have said that Gaia is the consciousness of the whole earth, the consciousness of all living things, the condensation of all soul particles, and the separated souls dominate the formation of entities, forming living beings. We also deduce from this that the eighth type of particle is the origin of all matter, which is also the source of the warrior's strength. ”

"In addition, the question you asked in the morning, ghosts are also composed of soul particles, and they will also form entities independently, and after attacking humans and absorbing human souls, they will choose the image that people fear, vampires, monsters, etc., continue to commit murder, and their body size will generally increase as they become stronger, but it is precisely because they have entities that they have the possibility of being eliminated by ordinary people, and the monsters that are destroyed by heroes in epics or fairy tales are basically like this" Landor paused and continued: " Back to the point, we establish communication with the free soul particles, absorb them into the body, strengthen the various parts of the body, and enhance the various qualities of the body. ”

"How do you control it? Will it become a monster?"

Brando smiled: "No, the free soul particles enter the body and automatically disperse in the body, increasing the local soul density and gathering more elements to strengthen the body." ”

"What element?" Li Qiumu continued to ask.

Ah, I forgot to mention this. Brando patted his head: "Our world is dominated by soul particles, but matter is made of elemental particles, the earth element, the wind element, the fire element, the water element, and the very rare dark element and the light element are the six elements known to make up matter, the space-time element is what we presumed to exist but never seen, because we learned from the angels that the soul particle is the eighth type of particle." Still have questions?"

Li Qiumu shook his head.

"So, to get started, it's very simple, close your eyes and feel the air around you, where there are countless scattered children, they surround you and gather around you. Brand's words gently flowed into Li Qiumu's ears, as if hypnotic.

Slowly, Li Qiumu seemed to see the scene around him, Lei was watching him with big eyes, and Brando was watching the TV that was turned silent. There are many small light purple balls around his body, which are extremely small, and if they don't emit a faint light, they can't be noticed at all.

The small purple ball of light was originally moving slowly and disorderly, and then it seemed to feel Li Qiumu's gaze, slowly floating towards him, and then disappearing into his body.

Li Qiumu opened his eyes suddenly, Lei and Brando's movements did not change, but the surrounding balls of light were gone.

"Light balls, lilac. Right?" asked Li Qiumu excitedly.

"Well, that's right, the phantom wings that have been in agreement with the Holy War Angels are indeed much more convenient than ordinary warriors, the connection has been established, and the soul particles will be spontaneously and slowly absorbed by you in the future, and if you maintain the meditative state just now, the speed will be faster. Then the training of the soul particle connection is over, and it will be up to you in the future, don't forget to go out after dinner to practice the knife, I'm leaving. See you tomorrow morning. With that, Brando grabbed an apple and bit it off.

"Rei, I see soul particles. Li Qiumu was still excited.

"Hmm. The girl nodded, her big emerald eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of her mouth raised slightly. The rare beautiful smile at that moment amazed Li Qiumu.
