Chen Xiao was fascinated by what he heard. He recalled that in the past, Lao Tian held a cane and beat all the martial arts masters in Japan to surrender. What a legend and heroism was that
Lao Zhuuchi was still reminiscing, and he sighed faintly: "That day, standing in front of the mountain gate of Jianzhai, watching General Tian strolling from a distance, I knew... what the teacher said to me was true! This Although the battle hasn’t started yet, the teacher has already lost.”
"Oh why?"
"Because of the momentum."
Takeuchi's tone was a little self-deprecating, but also a little helpless and resigned, and he said slowly: "One side is facing a powerful enemy and is ready to fight. The other side is taking every task as lightly as possible..."
His eyes became a little complicated and strange: "That was the first time I saw the famous 'General Tian'. Although he had been causing trouble in the Japanese martial arts world for several months, it was the first time I saw this master. , I really can’t believe that the man standing in front of me is a cane that has almost defeated all the invincible enemies in Japan. He was wearing the simplest sergeant’s short coat and had an unshaven beard. At that time, in our sword studio, Countless disciples were waiting in formation, and dozens of people were holding swords and glaring at him, but he was playing with the cane easily in his hand, pulling the little girl beside him. Looking at his appearance at that time, it seemed that all his mind was focused on On the little girl, even when my teacher was talking to him, he squatted down and helped the little girl dust off the dust on her pants. He seemed not to care about the upcoming decisive battle. It seemed that He was extremely confident in his heart, without any nervousness at all. From his eyes, I had a feeling... It seemed that this life-and-death battle we thought was just a formality for him. All of us, together Together, they were not taken seriously by him at all!"
"Then, it seemed that the little girl next to him didn't like this kind of murderous scene with swords and swords, and she seemed a little nervous. But he focused on that girl and whispered comfort to her, "Soon. It’ll be fine, it’ll be fine in a moment’ and that sort of thing.”
"Before the duel, the teacher dispersed all the disciples, leaving only the other five sword masters who were invited, and me, his most valued disciple, and we stayed in the sword field for the duel.
Originally, in our previous order, we only planned to put my teacher last, because this consideration was based on the teacher's status as the god of Japanese swordsmanship. The other five masters appeared first. Even if they were defeated, they could at least allow the teachers watching from behind to clearly ascertain the strength of the enemy, and even... they could even consume General Tian's energy and physical strength first. "
Having said this, the old man Takeuchi gave a bitter smile and looked at Chen Xiao: "Do you feel despicable?"
"... A little bit." Chen Xiao said calmly: "Wagon battle? Hehe!"
"Although despicable, that battle was a matter of life and death, as well as the glory and dignity of the entire Japanese Kendo. In order to win, we didn't care much. Maybe you will think it is despicable, but for us... we really can't afford to lose. !”
When Lao Zhuuchi said this, he grabbed another porcelain bottle on the small table, raised his head and drank, only to find that there was no drop of wine in the porcelain bottle. He frowned and grabbed the porcelain bottle in front of Chen Xiao. , poured a few mouthfuls into his mouth, and then let out a long breath.
"But... I didn't expect that at the end of the decisive battle, the teacher suddenly changed his mind and asked to be the first to appear!"
"Oh?" Chen Xiao was a little surprised.
Have these Japanese, who were originally thinking about wheel warfare, changed their temper
"At that time, the teacher suddenly overturned the previous plan, which surprised several other swordsman masters. However, because of the teacher's status at the time, it was difficult for others to object to what he said. At that time... "
…
At that time, General Tian looked at the old man in front of him, who was like a dean in the Japanese kendo world, and smiled slightly: "Oh, are you going to be the first to fight me?"
"Not the first one, but the only one!" The old man Naoo Jingu looked at the Chinese in front of him. He suddenly owed his body: "I'm sorry, I actually had such thoughts of fighting in circles before! It simply goes against what a warrior should have. Self-esteem! In today’s battle, I will fight you alone. If I lose, then the others will not have to appear! As long as you defeat me, you can be considered invincible to Japan!"
The Japanese swordsman master looked at the Chinese in front of him and said slowly and deeply: "As soon as I saw you in person, I knew that a master like you would not fall down just because of a wheel battle!" I felt ashamed for having such thoughts before! I am a warrior, even if I lose, I must lose with dignity!"
Only then did Lao Tian look at the old Japanese man in front of him twice, and then he smiled slightly: "Very good! After coming to Japan, you are the second opponent who made me think that he is a real warrior."
"The first one is Ueno Tokisada, right?"
Lao Tian didn't say anything. He suddenly let go of the little girl's hand, then held the cane with both hands, gently bent it, and with a click, the dry cane was immediately broken by himself!
"What are you..."
"I've thought about it, I don't need this cane to fight you!" Lao Tian smiled faintly.
Naoo Kamiya was slightly excited: "Are you planning to use swords and weapons?"
It's been a few months since this Chinese man came to Japan and made a big fuss. His martial arts skills are incredibly high, but he has never used a weapon, and... he beat so many masters in Japan with a cane. This approach really makes Japan A nation with complex inferiority and self-esteem mentality feels deeply ashamed.
At this moment, General Tian offered not to use the rattan, which made the old man from the palace slightly excited - although he knew that his strength was probably not as good as the opponent, but to see such a top master display his true strength was a thrill for any warrior. is a blessing.
"No, I don't need a weapon. I will fight you with my bare hands." General Tian's next words made the old man from the Shrine suddenly become furious!
"You! Don't you look down on me!!"
What a joke! When I fought with that junior boy Ueno Tokisada, I used a cane, but now that I'm here, I don't even use a cane anymore? Fight me with bare hands? Does he look down on me so much? !
"You misunderstood." General Tian looked at the Japanese master of swordsmanship in front of him and smiled lightly: "It is because I respect you that I don't use rattan. You know what rattan is used for in China. Is it used?"
The old man from Jingu was not a China expert, so he just shook his head.
"In China, rattan is used by elders to spank children when they punish disobedient children. When children are disobedient or misbehaved, they are used to spank them." General Tian smiled softly.
But these words made many Japanese people present almost become so angry that they vomited blood!
This arrogant Chinese! He had defeated so many Japanese masters with a cane before, but to him, it was just like making fun of people! Are you teaching a disobedient child? !
But the old man from Jingu heard the smell and said seriously: "Your Excellency, you mean that you will treat our duel with a truly serious attitude? Then why don't you use weapons? Is it possible that your martial arts is just the empty hand of the company? Fists and kicks?”
"No, what I am most skilled in in my life is the sword!" When General Tian said the word "knife", his eyebrows lightly raised, and his eyes naturally revealed a fierce domineering air!
"Then why don't you use a knife?" The Japanese master was a little unwilling: "If you don't have a weapon, I have all kinds of knives here! I can find all the knives in Chinese martial arts here! If you need a special one, it will take a few days at most. We can make it! If I could see a master of martial arts like you display your most proud martial arts, I would also... "
"No need." General Tian immediately shook his head, and then he smiled softly: "It's not that I don't use a knife... Sometimes when I need to kill someone, I will just pick it up and use it. However, if I really face a martial arts opponent , when I have a serious duel with the opponent, I won’t be able to use a knife!”
"Why... why?"
"Because..." General Tian suddenly sighed softly, with a hint of desolation in his eyes:
"Among the warriors in this world, there is no one who is qualified to let me draw my sword! There was no such thing a long time ago."
The old man from the palace was still a little unwilling. He wanted to say something else, but Lao Tian was already a little impatient.
Because the ten-year-old girl next to him pulled his sleeves, showing a somewhat pitiful look in her big, bright eyes.
"Soon, it will be fine soon." Lao Tian knelt down and hugged the girl. When he stood up again, he frowned at the old man from Jingu who was still trying to argue, and said something extremely arrogant:
"Hurry up and draw your sword, I'm in a hurry!"
