I formed the strongest swordsman group

Qingdeng, Sanako, Kinoshita Mai: "?!!"

At this moment, the atmosphere around Qingdeng and the others changed.

There was a cool touch on the neck.

Feel the warm breath on the left cheek.

"Okita-kun?!"

As if getting an electric shock, Qingdeng's face changed immediately, and he quickly hid to his right... away from the chief executive, and then looked at the chief who had just "caught him off guard" with a look of astonishment. Si, while raising his hand to touch his left neck that was licked by the chief just now.

At this moment, the chief executive, like a cat, lay on all fours on the ground, squinting and smiling at Qing Deng, his blushing face full of smiles.

Not only Qing Deng was looking at the chief in astonishment... Right now, both Sanako and Kinoshita Mai stopped the "confrontation" temporarily, and turned their heads at the same time in a tacit understanding, casting their eyes with different emotions on the chief body.

Although the emotions on their faces are different, their eyes are wide open and their red lips are slightly parted.

Sanako was simply surprised.

It is well known that the relationship between Qingdeng and the general manager is very good, so Sanako didn't think there was anything wrong with the general manager's actions just now, she only thought that the relationship between Tachibana-kun and Okita-kun was really good, and that Okita-kun was too drunk. Great.

As for Kinoshita Mai... her mind is not as "simple" as Sanako.

——Why is he again...

The light in Kinoshita Mai's pupils and the expression on her face flickered violently.

At this moment, scenes of memories flooded Kinoshita Mai's mind.

At the celebration banquet celebrating the victory of the Trial Guard Hall over the Xuanwu Hall, Qingdeng and the chief executive chatted intimately...

On the last day of the fireworks festival, although all the young people from the test hall came out to watch the fireworks, in the end, until the end of the festival, only the chief was inseparable from Qingdeng all the way...

What is the relationship between Qingdeng and the general manager? Mai Kinoshita has been consciously avoiding this question.

The reason is that Kinoshita Mai has never dared to delve into the answer to this question...

Seeing the chief executive making an intimate move with Qingdeng in front of her again, a sense of crisis, which is completely different from facing Sanako directly, rose in Kinoshita Mai's heart.

Especially after noticing Qing Deng's expression at this moment, this brand new sense of crisis is like touching a flame of oil, and it swells up quickly with a "swish"!

If it is said that the people who used their tongues to help Qingdeng wipe off the sauce on his neck were Saito, Yongcang and the others, then Qingdeng would only feel a little disgusted in the astonishment.

But the boss is different...

For Qingdeng, who already knew the real gender of the chief executive, the chief executive's demeanor just now... made him feel a little embarrassed.

This was the first time he was touched so intimately by a girl.

For a moment, Qingdeng unconsciously dodged the eyes that met the smiling chief executive's four eyes—his expression and his small movements were all keenly captured by Kinoshita Mai.

——Qingdeng...?

Kinoshita Mai's sluggish eyes turned back and forth on Qingdeng and Zongsi's body...

At the center of the vortex, as the instigator of this series of "turmoil", the chief executive seemed to be completely out of it at this time - after all, she might not even know what she had just done.

She yawned vigorously, then smacked her lips in a "Mmmm", curled her body up, and lay down on the ground again.

"Konpei candy is so delicious..."

In just a moment, the director's breathing returned to normal—she was back to sleep.

At this moment, a loud shout attracted the attention of everyone in the hall.

"Yong! You are also a man with a family now! Please be sure to join hands with your wife to carry forward the great school of the Weiwei Hall and the natural Xinxinliu!"

Turning his head and looking - the owner of the shout is Hijikata's brother-in-law: Sato Hikogoro.

Sato Hikogoro, who smelled of alcohol and was so drunk that his face was no longer blush but dark red, was holding a wine bottle and glass, squatting in front of Kondo and Matsui Tsune, toasting the newlyweds.

Kondo has a lot of alcohol, and after the official banquet, people kept coming to toast him with wine. Kondo said that he had already drank nearly 1 liter of wine, but there was no abnormality in his body except for a slightly bulging belly and a slightly flushed face.

"Mr. Sato, don't worry!"

Kondo raised the wine glass on his lap and clinked glasses with Sato Hikogoro in high spirits.

"It is my dream to carry forward the health test hall and the natural flow of mind! I will definitely do my best to realize this dream!"

As soon as Kondo's words came out, there were applause everywhere.

After toasting with Kondo and drank the wine in the glass, Hikogoro Sato staggered to his feet while laughing heartily.

"Yong... hiccup... the future of the natural mind flow... hiccup... I entrust it to you... hiccup... But don't let this great genre... don't let Ogata Isai, Kondo Naizo Waiting for the names of the ancestors to be ashamed...!"

As soon as Sato Hikogoro said this, he immediately attracted the attention of many people around him.

"Ogata Issei?" Hearing this name, a family member of the woman raised a shocked look at Sato Hikogoro, "Eternal Sword Master Ogata Itsze?"

"Hey hey...yes!"

Sato Hikogoro chuckled meaningfully a few times, then cleared his throat vigorously.

"You may not know it! Our natural Lixinliu is a genre that has a lot of talk about its practicality and origin!"

"Mr. Sato..." Kondo handed a helpless smile to Hikogoro Sato, "The fact that Ogata Ittosai is our ancestor...it's just an anecdote that doesn't know the truth, it's not worth talking about. "

Kondo's advice didn't help at all—Sato Hikogoro continued on his own:

"If we want to describe the relationship between Ogata Ittosai and our natural Rishin-ryu in detail, we must start with the ancestor of the Kondo family and the founder of the natural Rishin-ryu: Kondo Neizosuke!"

"The ancestor Neizosuke was originally the successor of the Katori Shinto style. After practicing the sword skills of the Katori Shinto style to the pinnacle, he added his own understanding on the basis of the Katori Shinto style. Finally, Kanzheng Yuan 71 years ago In 1789, a brand-new school was created: that is, the natural flow of mind!"

"According to legend, the master of the ancestor Nei Zangsuke is Ogata Yishi, one of the 'Twin Saints of Yiyuan', known as Shura, Yidao Zhai, and Eternal Sword Master!"

"It is said that when the ancestor Neizang helped establish the natural flow of Lixin, Ogata Istosai gave him a lot of guidance. Without the guidance of Ogata Istosai, there would be no natural flow of Lixin."

"So Ogata Yidao Zhai can be regarded as the patriarch of our natural Li Xinliu!"

Sato Hikogoro, who became more and more excited as he talked, raised the wine bottle in his hand, took a big gulp, and then let out another meaningful chuckle while wiping the remaining wine on his lips.

"When I was still practicing the natural Lixin flow under my master, I heard such a rumor: Ogata Yidaosai is still alive! And he would visit the inheritors of the natural Lixin flow from time to time, see Let's see how this genre with which I have a close relationship is developing!"

"It's okay, my dear, you must have drunk too much..."

At this time, Sato Hikogoro's wife...hijikata's older sister Ashin came forward with a speechless face, and helped Sato Hikogoro to rest.

"I'm not drinking too much... hiccup... I'm getting drunk...!"

Everyone, including Qingdeng, smiled at Hikogoro Sato, who was making classic drunken remarks.

After the figure of Sato Hikogoro was submerged in the crowd of banquet guests not far away with Ashin's support, Qingdeng looked away and murmured:

"Natural mind flow still has such a past..."

The natural Lixin flow has a very close relationship with Ogata Yishi, the eternal sword master who was famous all over the world, created history, and was listed as one of the "Twin Saints of Yiyuan" 70 years ago... This kind of thing, It was the first time Qingdeng knew about it.

The "Yiyuan Sages" mentioned by Sato Hikogoro just now is the collective name of the two swordsmen whose swordsmanship has reached the level of perfection more than 70 years ago——

Eternal Sword Master Ogata Yishi.

The hidden sword master Kinoshita Genichi.

Although the names of the two are juxtaposed, the ages of the two parties are actually far apart-it is said that when Ogata Yishi was still a young man in his early 20s, Kinoshita Genichi was already a gray-haired man. 70 years old man.

The reason why the two people with such a big age difference are juxtaposed is because their active periods overlap to a certain extent-both of them were quite active during the Kansei period 70 years ago.

Ogata Yishi has done all kinds of earth-shattering events.

Hundreds of people beheaded and murdered their lords, single-handedly broke through Nijo Castle in Kyoto, destroyed the "last ninja village" Shiranui, defeated the shogunate army that crusade against Ezo, and went alone to the "Buddhist Holy Land" Koyasan...

Because he did all the things that could permanently engrave his name on the history books, there are a lot of historical materials about Ogata Yishi.

But there are very few official historical records about Genichi Kinoshita.

The reason is that Kinoshita Genichi basically didn’t do any eye-catching big events...or he did, but the deeds have not been handed down, so the name of Kinoshita Genichi mostly appears in various rumors of unofficial history.

According to these unofficial rumors, Genichi Kinoshita was a superhuman swordsman whose talent was so high that he seemed to be favored by the gods alone.

The first time I held a sword, I defeated the seniors in the sword hall.

At the age of 16, he left his hometown and traveled around, fighting and competing with masters from all over the world.

There are too many rumors about Kinoshita Genichi who don't know whether they are true or not.

Regarding this person, the only certain thing is: there is indeed such a No. 1 person, and his swordsmanship level is indeed extremely strong.

It is rare that big news is made as frequently as Ogata Itsuki, like a hermit... So people later gave Kinoshita Gen a title: Hidden Sword Saint.

As soon as Qingdeng's murmur fell, Zuo Nazi who was at the side suddenly interjected:

"It's just a rumor that I don't know if it's true or not."

Sanako put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hand, and continued in a calm tone:

"'Ogata Ittosai is Kondo Naizosuke's master'——there is indeed such a saying... But the truth and falsehood of this matter are no longer testable."

"Ogata Istosai's name is too famous. So in the past 70 years, there have been a lot of anecdotes related to Ogata Istosai all over the country that I don't know the truth about."

"'Ogata Yidaosai once passed by here and wiped out all the bandit dens nearby'..."

"'Ogata Ittosai once gave me swordsmanship advice'..."

"'I was once rescued by Ogata Issai'..."

"There are all kinds of rumors and names, and it is impossible to tell which of these anecdotes are true and which are false."

"I think Mr. Kondo and the others also felt that it was difficult to tell the truth about the fact that 'Ogata Itosai is closely related to the natural flow of spirituality', so they didn't tell you juniors."

After listening carefully to Sanazi's words, Qingdeng nodded lightly:

"So...it makes sense. Hahaha, speaking of 'Yiyuan Sages'... Ah Wu, that hidden sword master with the same name as Ogata Yidaozhai has the same surname as you."

With a smile on his lips, Qingdeng cast a teasing look at Mai Kinoshita, and continued in a joking tone:

"That Genichi Kinoshita isn't your ancestor?"

"how could it be possible!"

As soon as Qingdeng finished speaking, Kinoshita Wu said angrily:

"Qingdeng, do you know how many people in this country have the surname 'Kinoshita'?"

"'Kinoshita' is not a rare surname that is unique and only held by a certain family."

"There are countless people with the surname 'Kinoshita' all over the country. It's impossible for everyone to be a descendant of Genichi Kinoshita, right?"

Qingdeng laughed, repeatedly saying that he was just making a joke.

As Kinoshita Mai just said, "Kinoshita" is a very popular and common surname.

Qingdeng only made such a harmless little joke with Kinoshita Mai in order to liven up the atmosphere around him.

Sato Hikogoro got up suddenly and told anecdotes about the natural flow of the mind and Ogata Yasuo - everyone regarded this as an ordinary episode that was insignificant.

In a short while, everyone should do what they should do.

Those who are not full continue to eat.

Those who want to make a toast to Kondo and Matsui Tsune continue to toast.

Those who want to indulge in singing and dancing continue to sing and dance.

Those who want to "fight" continue to "fight"...

Kinoshita Mai quietly raised her vigilant gaze as if facing an enemy.

It's just that she's doing two things at the moment.

Not only did he focus his attention on Sanako, but he also turned his attention to... the chief executive who was sleeping soundly from time to time.

Sanako was keenly aware of Kinoshita Mai's gaze again... and then adopted a "cold" and "ignoring" attitude again.

Although Kinoshita Mai's behavior was very concealed... But at this time, Qingdeng finally noticed her little moves belatedly.

In fact, as early as Sanako said to Kinoshita Mai in a tone of neither sadness nor joy, "It seems that Miss Kinoshita is not good at drinking. You don't even have the smell of alcohol on your body, so you are already drunk." Qingdeng already smelled the faint smell of gunpowder permeating between the two daughters...

Why did Sanako oppose Kinoshita Mai? Qingdeng didn’t know whether it had something to do with him, after all, he was still not sure whether Sanako regarded him as a “very good friend”...or in some other capacity.

But Kinoshita Mai is different.

Even a third party like Tongyu can see what kind of feelings Wu Shimai has for Qingdeng... Let alone Qingdeng, a person with normal business interests?

Although it's just Qingdeng's conjecture...but he feels that it's almost inseparable - the reason why Kinoshita Mai is staring at Sanako with such a tense and vigilant gaze at this moment is because of him. At the fireworks display a few days ago...

Qing Deng lowered his head and looked at the bowls and chopsticks in his hand.

At this moment, Qingdeng felt that the voices around him were far away from him - he was concentrating on thinking. The high concentration of spirit makes Qingdeng feel that this small space with himself as the center and 1 step as the radius seems to be cut off from the world.

——Don't hesitate...!

After thinking so secretly in his heart, Qing Deng took a deep breath:

"My hands got dirty with the sauce, I'm going to wash my hands."

Leaving this sentence behind, before Sanako and Kinoshita Mai could respond, Qing Deng hurriedly put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, stood up with a "huh", and walked quickly towards the outside of the banquet hall.

Qingdeng didn't go to the toilet or the well in the yard—he ran straight to the stairs leading to the second floor without stopping.

After going up to the second floor, Qingdeng turned into the room where he, Saito, Yongcang and others lived together: between diners.

Qingdeng dug out his pen, ink, paper and inkstone from the locker where his clothes and daily necessities were stored.

Laying out paper, grinding ink, meditating—after finishing this series of preparatory work, Qing Deng solemnly picked up the pen and wrote something on the paper...

...

...

The test hall, somewhere——

Kiryu put his hands on the window frame in front of him, and looked at the distant scenery through the open window.

At this time, a middle-aged male voice full of magnetism shouted from behind Kiryu:

"Mamiya-kun. Sorry to keep you waiting."

"You guys are finally here..."

Kiryu let out a light sigh of relief, and then turned back - the Gumu couple strode towards him side by side.

"I thought you two didn't understand my code."

"Suddenly said that he wanted to relieve himself, and when he got up to leave, he quietly reached out and touched the shoulders of A-Ming and me——I'm not old enough to understand even this level of code." Gumu Goro smiled.

Kiryu followed with a laugh:

"Gu Mu..."

"Mamiya-kun, there is no one else here." Gu Mu Goro interrupted Kiryu, "There is no need to pretend anymore."

"Ha... That's true."

Kiryu adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose.

"Then...Although I told you 'Long time no see' just now, what I called you by your pseudonym just now...So let me say it again."

Kiryu lowered his voice.

Then, he showed a nostalgic smile.

"Long time no see... Ogata-kun."

"Yeah." Gumu Goro... or Ogata, reached out and patted Kiryu's shoulder familiarly, "Magong-kun, don't come here without any problems."

"We haven't seen each other for almost 3 years... or 4 years?"

"Is there? I can't remember much." Ogata shrugged, "Since I passed seventy, I have become less and less sensitive to time."

"Hahaha, this is also a common problem of old people. To me, the day when you and Mr. Yuan were dueling in Tianwang Mountain still seems like yesterday..."

"To each other. The scene where I and Neizosuke wandered around together is still in front of my eyes... In the end, in the blink of an eye, the future four-generation heads of the natural Rishinliu got married."

Ogata walked slowly to Kiryu's side, and A-Machi followed closely.

The three stood side by side in front of the wide window, facing the blue sky outside the window.

"I won't talk about unnecessary opening remarks and pleasantries."

Kiryu said.

"I know that you two have a lot of questions you want to ask me, so I specially asked you to come out for a private meeting with a secret signal."

"Now, if you have any questions, just ask me."

As soon as Kiryu finished speaking, A-Machi impatiently uttered a nervous voice:

"Jamiya-kun, what is the relationship between that 'King Ni' and Ah Wu? Is that the relationship between him and them?"

Kiryu seemed to have expected that Ogata and Atachi would definitely ask this question first, and said calmly and indifferently:

"The two of you actually know about 'Nioh'... I'm a little surprised. Is Tachibana-kun's name already spread to Kinki?"

Ogata said helplessly:

"A-cho and I just live in seclusion in Kyoto, not in the mountains."

"Opening a wagashi shop in Kyoto—do you think this kind of life may become closed?"

"Although it has not been spread on a large scale, the name of 'King Ren' has indeed spread in a small area in Gyeonggi."

"Since you all know who Mr. Ju is, I'm also relieved. I don't need to introduce Mr. Ju to you in a long speech."

Kiryu took a deep breath.

"Because it happened recently, I haven't had time to tell many people including you two——I have accepted Mr. Ju as a disciple."

"Mr. Ju is now not only my closed disciple... but also the object of mutual affection with the young master."

The moment Kiryu's voice fell, the expression of a certain glamorous wife was dominated by strong shock.

Ogata's reaction was quite calm - but a look of surprise still jumped out of his eyebrows uncontrollably:

"Mr. Jiangong, have you...received an apprentice?"

As an old friend who has had a long friendship with Kiryu, Ogata knows how long and how much effort Kiryu has spent looking for someone who can inherit his mantle...but he has found nothing.

Kiryu nodded with a smile, and then told Ogata and Atachi about the past between him, Kinoshita Mai, and Qingdeng.

Kiryu's eloquence is very good.

How did he and Kinoshita Mai know Qingdeng...

How did he take a fancy to Qingdeng and accept Qingdeng as a closed disciple...

How did he discover that Qingdeng and Kinoshita Mai have a crush on each other...

It only took Kiryu a while to tell Ogata and A-machi all the above-mentioned events in detail.

After hearing this, A-Ming showed a very charming and complex expression:

"A Wu and that kid have a crush on each other...Mr. Jiangong, you...are you right?"

Ah Ding's address to Qing Deng, unknowingly, changed from "King Ni" to "That kid".

"According to my observation, the young master really likes Ju Jun very much. And Ju Jun's feelings for the young master are obviously extraordinary."

Kiryu said calmly.

"The two of them went to the fireworks display together to play together a while ago."

"In the past, the young master has always been indifferent to makeup and dressing up."

"But recently, she has started to take the initiative to learn makeup and pay attention to those beautiful clothes-A-Ming, you are also a woman, I believe you must understand what this means better than me."

Ah-Ming: "..."

Ah-Ming stopped talking, pursed his red lips tightly, and clenched his hands resting on the window frame in front of him.

I saw a drastic change in the expression on her face... I just don't know what she is thinking or thinking about right now.

Compared with A-Machi, who focused on the "relationship between Qingdeng and Kinoshita Mai", Ogata's focus is completely different——

"... Mamiya-kun."

Ogata, who had been silent just now, suddenly spoke out.

"Since you choose to accept that 'King Ni' as your apprentice...it means that in your eyes, that young man is a dragon among thousands of people...Am I right?"

"...You can say that." Kiryu agreed.

The corner of Ogata's mouth curled up in a strange arc at this moment.

"Jamiya-kun, do you have any wooden or bamboo knives in your Qianshiwu? I want to borrow one."
