Great Swordsman Ke Xue

"Most people can often enter the field of swordsmanship and become a warrior after obtaining one of them. However, depending on the talents they possess, their final achievements are often very different."

"Those samurai who can leave their names in the Edo period all entered the swordsmanship with their 'heart'. A pure samurai sword heart allowed them to go further than others."

"In comparison, those who enter swordsmanship through 'skills' are second best. Most people who study swordsmanship often only stay on the surface of swordsmanship and remain just ordinary swordsmen throughout their lives."

"And finally, entering the way of swordsmanship with the 'body' means the existence of people like you, Hao Er-kun. The upper limit of this way is who you are now; the lower limit is that of a miscellaneous soldier who can only swing a sword, and cannot even be called a swordsman." ”

Shimizu Koji didn't refute, just listened quietly.

What still lingers in his mind is the two stabs from Kohanadera's move that made him feel bad and the momentum he accumulated at the end.

The fact is that he, who could only practice swordsmanship by himself before, is indeed a layman now.

However, although he did not intend to interrupt Michiko Tetsu's story, Koji Shimizu had already discovered something was wrong.

Michiko Tetsu's tone seemed to be trembling slightly, as if she was gritting her teeth.

But this was just his vague feeling. Qingmizu Koji didn't know if it was his own illusion or because it was too empty and cold here.

Michiko Tetsumi turned her back to Koji Shimizu. After a long psychological struggle, she came out of her resentment. She reached out and picked up a long knife from the sword stand.

With a "swish" sound, he pulled it out.

Her hand holding the sword trembled slightly, and now Koji Shimizu who was following her could see clearly.

"When I say this, you must have understood that the most important thing in kendo is to have a sword 'heart', but most Japanese swordsmen prefer to call it the heart of a samurai."

"snort!"

After speaking about the warrior, an inexplicable cold snort suddenly sounded.

"While swordsmanship is important, sword skills and physique are equally indispensable. Only those who have these three talents at the same time can have the opportunity to become a world-famous swordsman."

"I'm not going to teach you any moves today, because I think you should have realized by now that what you need most is a pious heart for swordsmanship."

"You just regard the sword as an ordinary weapon. If you don't change this idea and find your own heart of kendo, no matter how many skills you have, it will be in vain. But after you understand your heart of kendo, your kendo The road will truly begin——"

The more Tetsumi Tomoko spoke, the more wrong her tone became. Although she was teaching Shimizu Koji about his situation, in fact, the words she said had been lingering in her mind like a nightmare for seventeen or eight years.

At first she missed and looked forward to it, then she regretted and hated it, but she couldn't forget it because she herself had fully understood these truths.

Yes, she compromised--.

Although she could not understand Tetsukenjuro's behavior of abandoning his wife and son, leaving her newly pregnant with Moroha and running away from home, but out of the love she felt during their wedding, she chose to compromise after Tetsukenjuro left.

She has gone from being a delicate newlywed beauty to the rich princess of the Tie family chaebol, and now she is already a powerful swordsman.

It was also because of this that she dared to stand here alone with Shimizu Koji.

But almost no one knew about all this, because, stupidly, she realized after practicing hard for year after year that the man would not come back because of her compromise.

Not even a letter was sent back, and even after Zhu Yu was born, he never saw him or asked for any news!

She seemed like a woman who was bullied by a wanderer, whose heart never stayed for her for even a second! ! !

She is as pitiful and stupid as the top student who falls in love with a bad boy! ! !

Gradually, a faint black aura emitted from Michiko Tetsu's body.

Yes, it was visible to the naked eye, so much so that Koji Shimizu, who had just fallen into deep thought and was wondering what the indescribable Kenshin was all about, suddenly woke up.

Without a trace of hesitation, subconsciously, he immediately took two steps back!

And almost at the same time, there was a "swish" sound, as if the spring rain moistened things silently, as if a round of moonlight flew out, like a waltz of sharp blades, an infinitely beautiful, like the circular slash of the moon wheel, blooming in the iron In Michiko's hands, in front of her.

After Koji Shimizu held his breath for a moment, there was a "crash" sound, and the sword stand in front of Michiko Tetsu, along with about five or six ornately decorated swords, was split in two from the middle and scattered on the floor.

The scabbard and sword body are all made of fine steel, but at this time, the smoothness of the cut is as natural and harmonious as it should be, and the broken sword is not broken.

This is many times stronger than Koji Shimizu's big flying slash.

But - what are you doing? !

After the sword strike, all the abnormalities in Tetsumi Michiko seemed to disappear, and she returned to the young lady with a gentle look in her eyebrows.

She turned sideways, and her figure was so graceful under a black, close-fitting dress. If there were any men present, they would not be able to take their eyes away, even though Michiko Tetsumi didn't reveal any of her snow-white skin.

However, when he looked at Michiko Tetsu who was looking at him sideways with only one eye, Koji Shimizu felt the infinite coldness in her heart.

"If you have any questions, you can come to me, but then - you can practice by yourself."

Da da da—, leaving behind a cold word that made Koji Shimizu look confused, Tetsumi Chiko turned around gracefully and walked towards the door.

At this time, Koji Shimizu, who was always calm and remained calm despite the collapse of the mountain, couldn't help but wonder - should he study psychology or something before coming here next time?

There is no problem with this mother and daughter, they are absolutely biological!

After coming back to his senses, Koji Shimizu calmed down.

He was not very interested in what secrets Tetsuzhuha and Tetsumiko had in their hearts.

In his mind right now, it was because of what Michiko Tetsu said about the sword's heart before, and along with that extraordinary sword light, a memory from the past that had been sleeping deep in his mind flashed past.

"The road is long, only the sword can keep you company. Listen to the wind and control the sword in your heart."

That person, compared to Michiko Tetsumi, the shopkeeper who had been handed over for less than an hour, might be considered his teacher.

Although the other party never admitted it, he did teach Shimizu Ko the way of swordsmanship for two or three days.

As for the name of the wandering swordsman, Shimizu Koji never knew it. He only remembered the group of sand bandits he met in the Shurima Desert and called him the Swift Wind Swordsman.

"So, it's the heart - the devotion to the sword and the way of the sword."

At this time, Shimizu Koji finally understood why the Gale Swordsman was somewhat interested in him at first, but three days later, the other party abandoned him and left calmly.

It is true that he has never had any intention of swordsmanship, and he is more afraid of piety or belief.

When he reaches those worlds with extraordinary abilities, he often either dies very quickly, or blindly pursues any power that can protect his life.

Beliefs and weapons don't matter at all, just like a lost traveler in the desert.

He doesn't care whether the strong melon is sweet or not, as long as it quenches his thirst.

"Listen to the wind and wield the sword in your heart."

"Watch the sword in your heart and listen to the wind."
