I formed the strongest swordsman group
Chapter 826 I, Ju Qingdeng, come to the rescue again and show off! [4900]
Faced with Prajna's shouting, Saito Ichi snorted coldly:
"You want to fight Mr. Tachibana? Defeat us first!"
Prajna grinned, the corners of her mouth almost cracked to her ears, revealing her scarlet gums and white teeth.
"That's right! Then I'll fight Tachibana Aoto after defeating you!"
Hijikata Toshizo glanced at Souji, then at Prajna, and said in a deep voice:
"For some reason, Tachibana went to deal with more important things, and he won't be back for a while."
After that, he clenched Izumi-no-kami Kanesada in his hand, staring at Prajna with a serious expression.
Serizawa Kame and Nakazawa Sadaki behind him also looked the same.
Fighting Souji, Nagakura Shinpachi and Saito Ichi at the same time, and not losing at all... This picture already shows how powerful Prajna is!
Even the arrogant and fearless Serizawa Duck, after seeing the terrifying strength of Prajna with his own eyes, could not help but change his face and sweat on his forehead.
The three masters of the Shinsengumi went into battle together, but they could only fight him to a draw... In this case, I am afraid that only Qing Deng can fight this man alone!
The ever-changing battle does not allow any carelessness.
In the blink of an eye, Souji and others fought with Prajna again!
The moonlight stretched out four high-speed moving and repeatedly changing figures.
In a flash, Saito Ichi launched a surprise attack.
At the same time, Souji rushed forward instantly, and Nagakura Shinpachi also jumped up.
Saito Ichi's knife stabbed Prajna's side.
Souji's knife slashed Prajna's chest.
Nagakura Shinpachi's knife slashed Prajna's eyebrows.
Immediately, the "clang clang" sound of steel knives colliding was heard.
I saw Prajna twisting his body flexibly, first avoiding Souji's slash, and then while dodging, he swung his sword to deflect Saito Ichi's stab.
The next moment, he pulled the sword back to his hand and deflected Nagakura Shinpachi's sword.
Prajna's terrifying features are not only speed and accuracy, but also strength.
Nagakura Shinpachi, who is muscular and practices Shinto Munen-ryu, is one of the best warriors in the Shinsengumi.
But in the end, he didn't gain any advantage in the sword fight with Prajna!
When the strong reaction force came, Nagakura Shinpachi was still able to stabilize his body firmly with his own weight and muscle strength.
Saito Ichi, who is not good at strength, doesn't have this ability.
Because of the strong power of the sword, after Saito Ichi's sword was deflected, he was directly knocked back as if he was hit by an elephant, his body retreated violently, his feet dragged two long marks on the roof, and his body posture was flawed.
If Prajna rushed forward and started to chase Saito, he would be in danger.
Fortunately, Souji stepped forward in time and stopped Prajna, buying Saito precious time to regroup.
Prajna's superb swordsmanship and strong physical fitness put Souji and the other two in danger.
But on the other hand, the tacit cooperation and continuous attacks of Souji and the other two also made Prajna suffer a lot.
Nagakura Shinpachi took a deep breath and relaxed the muscles of his legs.
Just as he lowered his waist again and prepared to launch a new round of offensive, Souji's shout suddenly came from behind him:
"Shinpachi, retreat!"
Nagakura Shinpachi was stunned for a moment. Out of his understanding and trust in Souji, he immediately lowered his body and dodged to the side.
As he dodged, Souji, who was behind him, was immediately exposed with a blue-eyed posture.
Blue-eyed - the structure that Souji was best at using.
Souji spread his legs, the tip of his knife pointed diagonally at Prajna's chest.
In the blink of an eye, the small Souji rushed towards Prajna like a cannonball.
The potential energy of the charge, his own weight, and his innate explosive power - Souji poured all these available forces into Kaga Kiyomitsu in his palm and made an extremely sharp stab.
Prajna's pupils shrank to the size of a pinhole in an instant, and she dodged sideways in an extremely thrilling manner.
The stab penetrated Prajna's afterimage, and the strong sword energy shot out! It spread for several meters before slowly dissipating.
Souji quickly retracted the knife, but in the blink of an eye he pulled Kaga Kiyomitsu back to his hand.
Before Prajna had time to catch her breath, a new attack came - Saito Ichi quietly moved to Prajna's side like a ghost, and made a move from his waist, sweeping the knife horizontally.
Saito Ichi's timing and the angle of the knife swing were impeccable, and could be called "perfect".
Even Prajna was almost hit.
Although he dodged again, the tip of Saito Ichi's sword still grazed his body, cutting his clothes and skin, leaving a conspicuous blood mark.
At this point in the battle, Prajna was finally no longer in the "undamaged" state.
As soon as Saito Ichi's attack stopped, Nagakura Shinpachi, who was ready to support him at any time, immediately staggered his steps and rushed towards Prajna at lightning speed.
At the same time, Souji, who had just finished his rest, cooperated with Nagakura Shinpachi to launch a new fierce attack from the side.
Don't underestimate the friendship of the "Shiweikan School" who ate from the same pot and lived under the same roof.
As the best of their respective schools, Souji, Nagakura Shinpachi and Saito Ichi often exchanged ideas with each other on weekdays.
It was even more common for them to exchange swordsmanship and discuss their experiences together.
Over time, they knew each other's swordsmanship and favorite moves very well.
To put it bluntly and simply - as long as the opponent slightly raised his knife, he would immediately understand what move the opponent was going to make!
For this reason, the three of them were able to display such tacit cooperation and achieved the wonderful effect of "1+1+1>3".
After witnessing the intense scenes of "Three Heroes Fighting Hannya" with their own eyes, Hijikata Tobizo and others had to admit that the Souji was right - adding more people would be of no use and would only cause them to stumble. hands and feet.
Anyone who has had combat experience knows that when fighting in a group, more people is not always better.
There are too many people, and they often get in each other's way, making it difficult to let go. A perfect strength cannot be used even for five points.
Generally speaking, it is enough to surround the opponent with 3 or 4 people and block the opponent's front, rear, left and right respectively.
In this way, they will not hinder each other, but also make the opponent exhausted.
Hijikata Toshizo and Nakazawa Sadashi are not strong enough.
Although Serizawa Kamuo is strong enough, he has a bad relationship with the "Taiweikan Faction" and cannot cooperate tacitly.
To sum up, the current lineup of "Si, Eight, One" is already the best lineup!
Unless someone is defeated, there will be no participation in this battle by Hijikata Toizo and others.
At first glance, the three heroes and Prajna are fighting inextricably and have become in a confrontation, and the situation is not clear.
It is still unclear who will win.
At this time, Hijikata Toshizo slowly turned his eyes and looked at the distant skyline, as if he was looking at somewhere, as if he was waiting for someone...
…
…
Kyoto, Luozhong——
"Mountain spring water! Cool mountain spring water! Just take a sip of the cool mountain spring water that has just been brought up and the heat will disappear!"
"Grilled squid! Freshly grilled squid!"
"Damn it! Why are you so crowded! Didn't you see anyone here?!"
"Tsk, these country bumpkins are really noisy! They just dress ugly, they don't even know basic etiquette, they are really like monkeys!"
"I mean, it's all because of these country bumpkins that our style in Kyoto has deteriorated!"
…
On one side is a bloody storm.
One side is in full swing.
The Shinsengumi and the Zunbo faction fought until they were bloody at Ikedaya.
On the other hand, Luozhong is peaceful, without any trace of killing or blood.
Such a strong contrast, it is not an exaggeration to describe it as "like a world away".
The annual "Yamaboko Parade" can be regarded as one of the most anticipated celebrations by the people of Kyoto - there may be no "one".
Lanterns lit up the streets one after another, as bright as day.
In order to make it easier for Yamaboko to pass through, the center of the street has been cleared, and people gathered on both sides of the street.
Looking up, everyone is smiling and full of joy - everyone is enjoying this rare festival.
Even if they are crowded together and even if they struggle to turn around, they can't dampen everyone's enthusiasm.
The surging heat dominated the air in Luozhong.
To say that "all the people in Kyoto are here" would be an exaggeration.
It can be said that "most of the people in Kyoto are here", which is accurate.
As the climax of the Gion Festival, the "Yamboko Parade" has such appeal.
As time passed, and as the scheduled start time approached, people at the starting point stretched their necks in anticipation, eagerly looking at the long rows of Yamabokos lined up in the middle of the street.
To describe it in layman's terms... Yamaboko is actually a float with a unique shape.
Common people designed various yamabokos of different shapes and sizes to express different wishes.
For example, "Mantis Mountain" is named after the mantis-shaped body on the roof of the car. During the parade, the mantis body in "Mantis Mountain" will shake its head and wave its pair of pincers to convey to passers-by that they are not afraid of powerful enemies and fight bravely. spirit.
[Note: Royal body: can be understood as a statue of a god]
Another example is "Zhan Chu Shan". The god-like figure on the roof of the car holds a fishing rod in the right hand and an ayu in the left hand, imitating the posture of the ancient Japanese shrine queen fishing ayu and divining war. The floating carriage depicts three scenes of Japan, which is fascinating.
There are many types of Yamabokos, such as Nagatoboko, Hanguboko, Taizi Mountain, and Baochang Mountain. There are more than 30 Yamabokos in total, which is dizzying for people to see.
According to convention, the Yamaboko who leads the tour must be the Nagatoboko.
The so-called "Nagato Hoko", as the name suggests, is a Yamaboko with a long sword inserted in the roof.
It is not only the first Yamaboko, but also the most exquisitely shaped Yamaboko with the longest history.
Finally, after much anticipation...it's time to start the tour!
At this moment, people's anticipation rose to its peak, and the heat in the air suddenly expanded.
Under the gaze of expectant eyes, Zhi'er on the long sword stood up slowly and raised the sword in his hand.
Zhi'er - can be understood as the messenger of the gods.
The purpose of the child at the Gion Festival is to purify the procession path so that Yamaboko can lead to the divine world.
Before the parade, young children are carried up the mountain by strong men.
Except for the child of Nagatoboko, who is played by a 10-year-old boy, the other children of Yamaboko are all dolls.
The child on the long sword has an important mission.
He wants to cut off the rope on the mountain with his sword, which symbolizes "opening the barrier" so that the mountain can lead to the divine realm.
The child, who was dressed up like a porcelain doll, raised the knife in his hand with a solemn gesture as he had rehearsed beforehand, and made a stroke - the rope broke with a sound.
At this point, the "Yamaboko Patrol" officially begins!
"Brothers! Show your courage!"
The sound head on the long sword hoarse his throat and shouted with great momentum.
Entotori - the commander of the Yamaboko convoy. During the parade, Entotori stood side by side on the front of the car, waving folding fans and directing the Yamaboko to move forward.
As soon as Yuantouqi finished speaking, the drag hands gathered around the Nagatohobo suddenly cheered, then spread their arms and worked together to push the Yamaboko.
Drag Hand - It is not difficult to tell from the name that this is the person responsible for pulling the Yamaboko. Each Yamaboko requires 40-50 pullers to pull and guide it.
Soon, Nagatoho seemed to be injected with life, swaying slightly, and then slowly moved forward.
Immediately afterwards, the other Yamabokos behind also started to follow the Nagatoboko.
How could such a grand celebration be without music?
Accompanied by the shouts of the yintotori and the draggers, rhythmic music rang out - Zazi Fang began to play music.
Zakogata - usually consists of 8 trumpet players, 8 flute players and 2 taiko drums. More than 30 pieces of music are usually played during the parade.
The person responsible for directing, the person responsible for pulling, the person responsible for steering, the person responsible for playing music... everyone works together and performs their own duties, so that each Yamaboko can be turned into a "moving picture."
Whenever the wind blows, sparks fall from the candle lamps and fly into the air, giving the sound of the taiko drum a dreamy color.
When the Yamabokos finally started to move, and when the shouts and drums lingered in my ears, it was difficult to use specific words to describe the excitement and joy of the scene.
Within a moment, more than 30 Yamabokos all drove into the middle of the street and lined up in a huge queue. The scene was quite spectacular.
Yamaboko doesn't move very fast, and it can even be said to be cumbersome.
Not long after, the convoy successfully arrived at the first turning point on the patrol road.
Yin Toutou shouted:
"Turn around! Turn around!"
The dragsmen slowed down, and the drivers swarmed up and began to prepare for the Yamabok turn.
Car driver - the person in the Yamaboko team who adjusts the direction of the wheels. When Yamaboko turns, the driver will lay bamboo boards near the wheels, and then sprinkle water on the bamboo boards to facilitate the turning of the wheels.
The tour operators were busy, and the patrol site fell into a brief period of busyness.
Because they were turning a corner, the speed of the convoy inevitably slowed down and almost came to a standstill.
At this moment...a sudden change occurred!
Dozens of serious-looking warriors suddenly emerged from the crowd on the street.
They kept their faces solemn, kept their mouths shut, and pushed away the crowd in front of them with brute force. Their actions were rough and indifferent, causing a lot of complaints.
Because the attention of the crowd was focused on the parade, the unusual behavior of these warriors did not immediately attract widespread attention.
After squeezing through the crowd, these warriors suddenly rushed towards the Yamabokos in the middle of the street like hungry wolves!
The first one to bear the brunt was Nagatoho, who was at the front of the convoy.
Upon seeing this, the sound head on the long sword immediately reprimanded:
"Hey! Who are you! What do you want to do?! You are so rude! How can you come and collide with Yamaboko?!"
The samurai ignored the warning, took off the porcelain bottles from their waists, and threw them up the mountain.
Click, click, click, click, click!
As the porcelain bottle shattered, the transparent liquid inside immediately splashed out.
Suddenly, chaos descended.
"Hey! You bastards! What do you want to do?!"
"What the hell is this?"
"It's oil! It's fire oil!"
Oil - when I heard this word, I was frightened, my face turned pale with fright, and I suddenly became a mess.
Similar scenes also occurred on other cars.
Groups of samurai rushed towards the carriages, and it was clear at a glance that they were well prepared.
There were 8 or 9 carriages that were attacked, and they were mainly concentrated at the front of the queue with the largest number of people.
A rough calculation showed that the group of warriors who suddenly attacked the convoy numbered more than a hundred people!
As we all know, wherever there are many people, whether it is joy, sadness, anger, or fear, no matter what kind of emotion it is, it will spread and spread rapidly.
Many people standing on the edge of the street corner could not see the current situation of the convoy at all, and they had no idea what was going on. They could only hear the increasingly noisy and chaotic movements, as well as the increasingly fierce shouts, and they couldn't help but panic and fear.
When they saw these warriors throwing fire oil, many people guessed what they planned to do.
Sure enough... after throwing the kerosene into Yamaboko, they took out the kerosene sticks from their arms...
"Ahhhhhhhh!"
"Run away! Run away!"
"These lunatics are planning to set a fire!"
To describe the current situation as "fast-changing" is really appropriate.
From the time this group of unidentified warriors suddenly appeared to now, less than a minute had passed.
At the moment when everyone at the scene was frightened by these guys who were trying to set fire... a sharp arrow penetrated the air and hit the chest of a guy holding a fire folder!
The man didn't even have time to scream, his eyes widened, his eyes bulged, and he died.
This arrow is just the beginning.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
One arrow after another shot out from a distance, accurately hitting the vital parts of those madmen.
When everyone looked in the direction of the arrow, they suddenly saw a young samurai wearing a light green feather.
He was holding a bow and a bow, and riding on his crotch was a fat man carrying a spear.
Asking for a monthly ticket! Please vote for recommendation! (Leopard head crying.jpg)
ps: The "Shanboko Patrol" mentioned repeatedly in the previous article is actually a foreshadowing! (Leopard Hi.jpg)
Baobaozi’s hometown has similar celebrations. At the beginning of each year, they would solemnly celebrate the birthday of Grandpa Shen (a famous general in the early Tang Dynasty and the pride of the family), and carry the statue of Grandpa Shen around the village, saying that this would bring blessings.
