Chapter 40: The Battle of the Sword
"I don't think I need to fight anymore." Zhou Ming put away the knife and said lightly.
He didn't have the idea of killing Oishi Chong right now.
Dashi Chong has hatred for him in his heart, and hatred is the fuel that can make people quickly improve their strength.
Oishi Chong is young and talented, and the pain of the father-killer standing in front of him but unable to take revenge will continue to whip his heart, driving him to be reborn and become stronger in the shortest possible time.
This is exactly what Zhou Ming needs, he needs an opponent with enough strength to match him, and in a hearty battle, he can improve his sword skill level.
Dashi Chong is like an unripe fruit, and Zhou Ming is looking forward to the moment when it is ripe, and he will pick it himself.
For this reason, Zhou Ming didn't mind waiting patiently.
"Go back and improve your strength, you're still too weak."
Zhou Ming pointed to Da Shi Chong's chest, where the clothes were cut by the blade, and a shallow blood mark appeared on his chest.
With that knife, as long as Zhou Ming uses one more force, Dashi Chong will end up disemboweling.
Da Shi Chong's face was very ugly, because he had not been able to leave even the slightest injury on Zhou Ming's body, which showed that even if he put aside the advantages of weapons, he was still not Zhou Ming's opponent.
"Find another good knife, next time, if your strength improvement is satisfactory to me, I can change a knife to fight you."
Zhou Ming waved the Edelman alloy knife that was still clear and cold without the slightest gap, and chuckled.
Without saying a word, Dashi Chong put the knife into the sheath, turned around and walked back into the carriage.
Zhou Ming also returned to the carriage and said lightly: "Let's go." ”
This time the carriages of both sides moved together, avoiding each other, and the two carriages passed by, and neither side spoke.
It wasn't until Tokugawa Sataka's carriage was far away that Oda Heizou couldn't help but ask, "Zhou Jun, which master made your sword?" ”
"Oni Kiri Antsuna is the work of the famous sword forging master Odawara, a famous sword in the world! It was actually damaged under your knife like this, and when this matter spreads, it will definitely cause an uproar! ”
"Don't get excited." Zhou Ming looked at the knife in his hand, and the corners of his mouth hooked up an inexplicable smile: "You have the energy to pay attention to this knife, why don't you think about the duel between me and Pingchuan Taisho tomorrow." ”
"Ahh Oda Heizou patted his head in annoyance and wailed, "Why did this kind of thing happen to me!" ”
Zhou Ming ignored Oda Heizo's wailing, it was enough to successfully divert his attention, and what else was there to say.
Time is like the balance in the card, I don't know when it will disappear.
In the blink of an eye, the day passed, the moon set and the sun rose, and a new day began.
Zhou Ming sat on the stone bench in the courtyard, watching the fish swim around in the pool, and the figures in his mind were constantly performing various knife styles.
It was the martial arts experience that Zhou Ming drew from the samurai he defeated one by one, containing the essence of various schools of swordsmanship, martial arts, and even martial arts philosophy.
None of them are complete, and they are in a very chaotic state of fragmentation and fragmentation.
What Zhou Ming has to do is to sort out these fragments clearly. What he wants is not a certain school of swordsmanship, but to use these colorful fragments as soil, absorb their nutrients, and forge a path of his own.
For Zhou Ming, this is not a difficult task.
The realm has gone up, from a high vantage point, and he can get twice the result with half the effort, as long as he wants to, he can create a coherent knife technique with one and a half moves, but the level is not high, it all depends on Zhou Ming's own requirements.
At this time, Matsui Kyanobu walked in.
"My lord, Hirakawa-kun is here." Matsui Kyonobu bowed.
Zhou Ming's eyes moved away from the fish in the pond, looked at the courtyard gate, and saw Hirakawa Daimasa standing there with a straight face.
"Let him come." Zhou Ming smiled and patted the bamboo knife next to him, "If you want to watch, you can stay." ”
Matsui Kyoshin was overjoyed, bowed even harder, and said loudly: "Thank you-sama!" ”
Seeing Zhou Ming using a bamboo knife, he knew that Zhou Ming had no intention of killing people today, so that Oda Heizou, who had been worried about causing trouble, could also rest assured.
And he, as a samurai, was naturally a great honor for him to be able to see two powerful samurai fighting.
Matsui Kyonobu stood up and hurriedly walked outside, first inviting Hirakawa Taisho in, and then quickly passing the news to Oda Heizou.
Seeing Oda Heizou breathe a sigh of relief and a smile reappeared on his face, Matsui Kyanobu didn't care about staying by Oda Heizou's side, and hurried back to the courtyard to watch the fight.
"What are you doing! Is it just you want to see it, I don't want to see it! ”
Oda Heizou scolded, and didn't care about continuing to reprimand Matsui Kyonobu, and walked towards the courtyard.
As soon as they walked in, they saw that Zhou Ming and Pingchuan Taizheng were already holding bamboo knives and confronting each other.
The atmosphere between the two was so solemn that it seemed that the air had been frozen, making the two people watching the battle involuntarily hold their breath.
"Drink!"
Finally, it was Hirakawa Taisho who took the lead in breaking the silence and raised his knife to slash at the top of Zhou Ming's head. He was fierce and unstoppable, as if he wanted to unfold everything that stood in his way, and no one could stop him.
This is exactly the way of Hirakawa Taisho's knife technique, preemptively, a rising momentum along with the fierce long knife cut down, if the other party is afraid, want to dodge the edge of this knife, take a step back, is step by step passive, after the Hirakawa big is as surging as the tide, a knife is stronger than a knife in the onslaught of defeat.
If it is a hard block, Hirakawa Taisho's powerful strength will be useful, he is tall, and he is a royal guard, his physique is far beyond ordinary people, and he is confident that he will not fall into disadvantage if he fights hard with anyone.
Then, he knew what it means to have people outside the people, and there are mountains outside the mountains, and what it means that the mountains are unshakable.
Facing the knife that Pingchuan Taizheng carried away, Zhou Ming just raised the bamboo knife with one arm horizontally, just to block the falling long knife.
The huge force that erupted from Pingchuan Taizheng fell on Zhou Ming's horizontal bamboo knife, like a mud cow entering the sea, without setting off half a wave.
Zhou Ming's raised right arm was like a finely carved iron cast, not moving at all, and he could even smile at him very easily.
Then, a huge force erupted from Zhou Ming's body, and the horizontal knife was slowly raised, mainly anti-guest, and pressed towards Pingchuan Taizheng little by little.
"How...... Probably ......"
Hirakawa Taimasa's heart was full of shock, he wanted to raise his other hand to hold the hilt of the knife against Zhou Ming, but he was reluctant to act because of the disbelief in his heart.
However, as the power transmitted from Zhou Ming's body continued to increase, it soon reached the point where Hirakawa Taisho could no longer bear it with only one arm.
"Ahh
Pingchuan Taizheng shouted, holding the knife in both hands, and exploded violently, returning the bamboo knife that Zhou Ming had gradually pressed down, swinging the knife and slashing, launching a fierce counterattack towards Zhou Ming.
Fast! Permit! Vicious!
The realm of Pingchuan Taisho's sword skills is still above Oishi Chong.
If he hadn't wanted to overwhelm people at the beginning, he wouldn't have fallen into a disadvantage as soon as he came up, and had to choose an explosion that consumed physical strength in order to get out of the passive situation.
And now Hirakawa Taisho, who has reversed the disadvantage, has completely exerted his sword skills that have been honed after years of fighting.
