The night wind carrying the breath of the mountains flowed down from the top of the mountain and blew on Chaya Tsering's face.
He is currently sitting cross-legged in an abandoned building, paying no attention to the messy dust and garbage on the ground.
This unfinished building is pitch dark and not as noisy as the city. Only a few faint barks of wild cats and dogs can be heard, but not far away is a bustling modern city with bright lights and greenery.
There seems to be an invisible gap between the two, separating the dead silence of the ruins from the hustle and bustle of the city.
In fact, this unfinished building is in a good location and the scenery is beautiful and pleasant.
Originally, a boss bought this land and planned to build a group of luxury villas with supermarkets, schools, and hospitals on the hillside.
However, soon after the construction site started, workers began to fall ill and were hospitalized one after another, some of which were seriously ill with cancer. At that time, there were rumors in the construction site that the feng shui of this area was not good, which was why so many people got sick.
Construction on the entire construction site has stopped. No matter how much money the boss pays, no one is willing to work here.
Compared with money, life is more important.
As time went by, even the boss himself became a little suspicious. He invited many Feng Shui masters, monks and Taoist priests to chant scriptures and practices, making the construction site a mess, but the matter was not resolved.
The developer was so worried that he invited various experts to investigate, including science and metaphysics.
After studying for a while, I discovered that it was not the devil who caused trouble, but that there was a small and pitiful radioactive vein beneath the land. When workers were laying the foundations for supermarkets and schools, they accidentally penetrated the vein.
This led to people constantly getting sick at the construction site. The reason was found, but the boss would rather it was ghosts than this.
Although no one got sick anymore after the mine was buried, but who would want to live on top of a powder keg?
The original target customers of this villa are people with small assets. For these people, money is not an issue, and living comfortably is more important.
Even if the price is reduced, no one will buy the villa here.
And because of this unfinished building, the boss brought down his original company. In extreme despair, he
One day, after drinking a few bottles of wine, I came here alone and jumped off the building.
After his death, the unfinished building was taken back by the government. After careful consideration, the government felt that the vein was too small, had no great development value, and was too close to the city. In the end, it was decided to keep it as it was. Don't mine this vein.
The former boss died here, and coupled with rumors of underground radioactive veins, there are almost no buildings or people nearby. Even the city's planning in recent years has avoided this place.
This place seems to be a paradise forgotten by the world.
Only occasionally a few curious young people come here to explore, but after satisfying their excitement-seeking psychology, they leave with satisfaction and will not stay here.
Therefore, Chaya Tsering set the meeting place with Yagyu Soichiro here.
Chaya Tsering did not make any cover up this time. He placed the demon sword across his knees and sat in meditation to adjust his condition to the best.
At this moment, two beams of bright light shone in from the entrance of the ruins, startling the surrounding dogs to bark.
A motorcade drove into the unfinished building and stopped in the central square.
In the car at the head of the convoy, a person got out of the driver's seat. It was Takeda who had appeared with Shizuko Tsuruoka a few days ago. Also getting out of the car with him was Shizuko Tsuruoka, who was carrying a spirit deer bow.
After Takeda got off the car, he walked to a car in the center of the convoy and respectfully opened the door for the people sitting inside. A middle-aged man in a crisp suit got out of the car.
This man looks quite majestic. He looks like he is only in his forties. It seems that he thinks too much on weekdays. As a foreigner at this age, his hair is already a little gray. This man has made an agreement with Chaya Tsering. Soichiro Yagyu.
As he appeared, everyone else in the convoy also got out of the car and spread out, guarding the surroundings with samurai swords in hand.
After Chaya Tsering saw Soichiro Yagyu's appearance and the dozen or so people accompanying him, he snorted:
"He's really here, he's very brave."
I don’t know whether he is talking about Yagyu Soichiro or the snakehead who dared to smuggle foreign foreign leaders into the hinterland of Northeast China.
Soichiro Yagyu walked in front of the car lights, exposed his figure under the strong light, looked at the dark ruins around him and shouted:
"Chaya-kun, I have been invited! Please show up and see me!"
Chaya Tsering jumped from the unfinished building, and when he landed, he stirred up a circle of dust on the ground, like a dust flower blooming on the ground.
Seeing Chaya Tsering appear, Soichiro Yagyu bowed forward first, with the attitude of a polite corporal, and his tone was kind:
"I didn't expect that I would be lucky enough to meet Higu Seijuro of this generation. It's such an honor."
Hiko Seijuro is the name of the successive heirs of the Hiten sword-playing style.
If each generation of successors of the Feitian Sword Style truly becomes a master, they must engage in a real sword duel with their master, and at the moment of life and death, they must understand the highest secret skill of the Feiten Sword Style, the Sky Soaring Dragon Flash.
If it succeeds, the master will die and the apprentice will inherit the title of Hiko Seijuro. If he fails, he will die. Therefore, Feitian Yujian style has always been passed down from generation to generation, which is quite mysterious.
(Except for Himura Kenshin, who used the reverse blade sword. Although he successfully mastered Tianxiang Dragon Flash, he did not kill his master.)
When Soichiro Yagyu said this name, he once again showed that he already knew the origin of Chaya Tsering.
Chaya Tsering neither denied nor admitted:
"As expected, the Yagyu family has a family background. However, how does the Yagyu family want to obtain the demon sword from me?"
Soichiro Yagyu said: "Chaya-kun, you have misunderstood. I know the importance of a good sword to a swordsman. Naturally, I will not win people's love easily."
"However, you should have discovered that the Demon Sword Hirudan is not suitable for you. This sword is too short and too light for you, isn't it?"
Japanese swordsmanship emphasizes speed, accuracy and ruthlessness, and Feitian Yujian style is known as the most ruthless and fastest of all schools in Japan. Every move and every move is swift and domineering.
Therefore, the first requirement for selecting a successor to the Feitian sword style is to have an extremely strong physique, with almost no exceptions.
The Demon Sword Hirumaru takes the light-spirited route. Although it can absorb blood and madly increase the power of the holder, it is not suitable for the Flying Sword Style. The most suitable for the Flying Sword Style is the kind that opens and closes widely to overwhelm people. The long sword, the heavy sword.
Therefore, if Chaya Tsering wants to fully utilize the power of this demon sword, he must spend time adjusting his habits and the direction of his sword.
Whether it's worth giving up the swordsmanship you're good at for a foreign object is a matter of opinion.
While Yagyu Soichiro and Chaya Tsering were talking, Tsuruoka Shizuko had already taken out a six-foot-long sword box from the car.
The sword box is made of gold and copper and covered with black lacquer. The corners of the box are also decorated with Tang grass patterns, and there are pictures of flowing clouds and animals painted on the lacquer surface.
Soichiro Yagyu opened the sword box in Shizuko Tsuruoka's hand and presented the contents to Chaya Tsering.
Just now I was looking at the gold, copper and black lacquer cabinet in Shizuko Tsuruoka's hand.
Chaya Tsering had already made some guesses about what was in the box, but when he actually saw the sword inside, he was still shocked.
When Soichiro Yagyu saw the surprise on Chaya Tsering's face, he knew that he had recognized the sword in the box, and he felt a lot relieved. What he was most afraid of was that Chaya Tsering didn't know the goods, and he would have to spend more time explaining.
"Chaya-kun, I will exchange this Kurezhu-sheathed sword for the Hirudo Pill in your hand."
Kure's bamboo-sheathed stick sword, called the sword, is actually a straight sword from the Tang Dynasty. It was named because its shape resembles a bamboo stick. It was once hidden in Shoso-in. It was produced in Kure and was cherished by Emperor Shomu of Japan during his lifetime.
"National Treasure Account" records: "The blade is two feet and one inch long, with an off-edge edge, gold engraved in the shape of a nebula, red sandalwood and birch, the eye and handle are made of silver, purple hanging group, Wuzhu sheath and birch, the total length is five feet and three inches. It is divided into four parts, the mouth is covered with deer antlers, and the tail is connected with iron, and the green ground is Gaoli brocade."
With the passage of time, the hilt and scabbard of this sword have become tattered, leaving only the blade still brand new.
I don't know what method Yagyu Soichiro used to get this sword from Shosoin, and refitted it with agarwood as the handle and rosewood as the sheath. According to the "Treasure Account" Carve it into the shape of a bamboo stick.
Soichiro Yagyu proudly said to Chaya Tsering: "I invited the most skilled foreign swordsmith in the Japanese country to repair this magic weapon."
"The Book of Changes says that there are two heavens and one earth, yang and yin."
"But the blade of this sword is two feet and one inch long, and the earth is in front of the sky, which indicates that once this sword is taken out of its sheath, the world will be turned upside down! The yin and yang will be reversed!"
Chaya Tsering looked at the sword and said: "Yagyu-kun just said that the demon sword is too light and too short for me, why did you give me a shorter and lighter sword?"
Soichiro Yagyu had a confident expression on his face. Without any explanation, he just signaled Chaya Tsering with his eyes to pick up the sword and try it out.
Good weight,
As soon as Chaya Tsering picked up the sword, he found that the sword was much heavier than he imagined, much heavier than it looked.
Even before it was unsheathed, the energy of Gengjin was faintly flowing out. He was really surprised that a thousand-year-old sword could have such power.
Chaya Tsering drew out his sword. The sword was straight and single-edged. The blade was still shining coldly.
Soichiro Yagyu reminded from the side: "Chaya-kun might as well give it a try by injecting sword energy."
Chaya Tsering poured his own sword energy into it. The sword body was dyed with energy and became long. With the sound of wind and thunder, it turned into a three-foot long sword.
Our ancestors had three feet of water in their box, and they once entered the Wu Pond to kill the dragon.
