I Was a Swordsman in Ancient Japan

Main Text Chapter 340 Shiranui's new stronghold - Edo! [Thanks to the lord Abandoned House Xiaohe Miao]

Since Lin borrowed Naheitaro and Kondo learned "Ogata style" from Ogata, Ogata has been quietly recuperating his wounds in Fuma's home.

These days passed very peacefully.

Since borrowing Heitaro away, Lin would occasionally send her companions to Fuma's house. Report the results of the interrogation of Heitaro to Ogata and the others.

Sometimes it's Asai, sometimes it's Shimada.

According to their reports - Heitaro's mouth is very hard, and it will take some time to pry some useful information out of his mouth.

Ogata was not in a hurry and just waited quietly. While waiting, he also slowly healed his wounds.

During this period of time, Kondo occasionally brought some supplements to visit Ogata again.

While delivering supplements to the door, he also asked Ogata some questions about swordsmanship.

For example: the technique of using one enemy against many, the technique of saving energy...

Because every time Kondo comes to the door, he will definitely ask Ogata some questions about swordsmanship, which makes Ogata and the others have to wonder whether Kondo is using the name of visiting the door to use Ogata's swordsmanship openly guide……

However, because the questions Kondo asked were not difficult to answer, and they happened to be questions that Ogata was good at answering, so every time Kondo came to ask him about swordsmanship, Ogata was also willing to answer him one by one.

Of course——in these days, Ogata did not do nothing except recuperate his injuries and give some swordsmanship instructions to Kondo who occasionally came to the door.

Under the effect of more than 20 points of "life force", Ogata's injuries recovered at a speed that made Fuma and Atachi gasp.

On the eighth day after the "Battle of Nijo Castle Castle", some of the shallower wounds on Ogata's body have healed.

Those slightly deeper injuries are not far from healing.

After the injuries on his body were almost healed, Ogata began to practice the brand new power he had newly mastered: Breath of Source, which was promoted to "master level", and the newly unlocked sword skill "Cicada Rain".

...

...

Kyoto, Fuma's home, Ogata's room.

Today is the 15th day of recuperation at Fuma's home.

Ogata, with half of the burlap off his body, was holding a long section of two tree branches in his right and left hands, and stood in the center of the room, setting up his Wuwo Dual Swordsmanship.

Although the room Ogata was in was not spacious, it was large enough to allow Ogata to practice swords in it.

After staring at the air in front of me for a while...

call! call! call……

Ogata began to wave the branch in his hand towards the air in front of him.

The ordinary and slender branches were danced by Ogata with sharp and ear-piercing sounds one after another.

Ogata swung a full seven knives at the air in front of him.

The seven knives were swung from different directions, with different speeds and rhythms.

When he swung the last knife, which was the seventh knife, Ogata grinned and let out a few gasps.

Because when he swung the last knife just now, Ogata accidentally pulled a wound on his left shoulder that hadn't fully healed.

Ogata hastily lowered his left arm, raised his right hand and gently rubbed his right shoulder.

After the pain in the left shoulder gradually subsided, Ogata thought to himself:

——This trick is really difficult to use.

After Wuwo Two Swords has been upgraded to 9th rank, there is finally a new sword skill to be unlocked: "Cicada Rain".

"Battle of Nijo Castle Castle Tower" allowed Ogata to gain 5 skill points.

4 of the 5 skill points were used to upgrade the breath of source, and the other 1 point was used by Ogata to unlock this new sword skill: "Cicada Rain".

Although he had seen "Cicada Rain" from Kinoshita Lin when he met Kinoshita Lin for the first time before, but after he personally used "Cicada Rain", Ogata felt how powerful this trick is. Difficult to use.

Because of the 7 consecutive cuts of the "Cicada Rain" move,

The rhythm of his swinging the knife is completely chaotic.

Under the condition of ensuring that the rhythm will not be disrupted, using this kind of rhythm is all chaotic combos - the difficulty can be imagined.

Although it is difficult to use, it is relatively powerful.

This sword skill can easily affect one's own rhythm, and at the same time, it can easily affect the opponent's rhythm.

It can disrupt the rhythm of the opponent - this is the most terrifying part of this sword technique.

In order to test the power of this move, Ogata specially asked A-Ming to be his partner.

When practicing against A-Ming, A-Ming's performance fully explained what it means to be "in a hurry".

In the first 2 strikes, Ah-cho was able to avoid or parry perfectly.

At the third strike, A-Machi's own defense rhythm and dodge rhythm began to be disrupted.

At the 4th and 5th cut, Ah-cho's rhythm was completely messed up, whether it was defense or dodge, everything was messed up.

In the end, the 6th and 7th cuts were not parried or spread out, and the last 2 cuts were eaten firmly.

Although this experiment to test the power of "Cicada Rain" was very successful, Ogata also paid a little... price...

Because he is not used to the new sword skill "Cicada Rain", Ogata couldn't hold back his own strength well when he hit A-cho in the last two slashes...

Although it didn't hurt A-Machi very much, the branch still pulled out two red marks on A-Machi's arm...

Fortunately, Ogata apologized in a timely manner, coupled with Ogata's status as a "wounded person", Ah-Machi quickly calmed down.

As long as you have the status of "sick" or "wounded", you will easily be forgiven by others-this is also one of the truths in this world.

In addition to practicing "Cicada Rain" these days, Ogata is also practicing "Breathing of the Source".

No, rather than practicing the upgraded "Breath of Source", it is better to experiment with the upgraded "Breath of Source".

The "master-level" breath of source not only greatly improved Ogata's concentration and the effect of "reflex nerve" enhancement. There is also a new effect:

After entering... or in other words, the state of being immersed in the breath of the source for about 10 minutes, during this 10 minutes or so, Ogata's concentration will continue to increase, and when it reaches the peak, you can enter the state of selflessness .

It can be regarded as obtaining the power that Ogata is most eager to obtain at present: the ability to independently enter the "state of selflessness" by one's own will.

Although it is still not as good as Yuan Yi's state of being able to freely enter the "state of no self".

For Ogata to enter the "Non-Self Realm" at present, there is a prerequisite that he must be immersed in the state of the breath of the source for about 10 minutes.

After the injury was almost healed and he began to experiment with his newly acquired ability, Ogata found that the time required to enter the "state of no-self" varied from time to time.

In the shortest time, it only takes 8 minutes to enter.

At the longest time, it took almost 13 minutes.

But generally it is still fluctuating up and down in the value of 10 minutes.

The only two previous experiences of entering the "no-self state", and the final way to release the "no-self state" are to wait for it to be released naturally.

Now that he can enter the "Selfless Realm" with his own will, Ogata finally clearly discovered two characteristics of the "Selfless Realm":

The first characteristic: the "non-self state" entered by one's own will can be stopped halfway. Just stop the breath of the source.

The second characteristic: Entering the "Non-Self Realm" will consume one's physical strength rapidly.

To give an example, it would probably be like this——

Ogata's body is a bathtub, and Ogata's physical strength is the water in the bathtub.

Entering the "Non-Self Realm" is equivalent to opening the drain, causing the water in the bathtub to drain quickly.

If you plan to exit the state of "Non-Self Realm" halfway, you only need to stop the breathing of the source, which is equivalent to re-blocking the drain, so that the water in the bathtub will no longer be drained quickly.

Once the water in the bathtub is completely emptied, that is, when Ogata's physical strength is completely exhausted, he cannot enter the "state of selflessness" until his physical strength is restored repeatedly.

Ogata did an experiment yesterday of "using the 'Selfless Realm' until his physical strength is completely exhausted".

At the end of this experiment, when exiting the "Non-Self Realm", Xu Fang had the feeling that he had just finished a long-distance race of several kilometers.

This feeling of exhaustion is not only physical exhaustion, but also mental exhaustion. It is the double exhaustion of body + spirit.

The exhaustion of finishing a long-distance race of several kilometers and finishing dozens of test papers in one go.

Ogata has experienced the sequelae of the "no-self state" after entering the "no-self state" twice before. After withdrawing from the state of "no-self state", a tidal wave of exhaustion will flood in instantly, making people almost out of breath.

After blocking the drain of the bathtub, if you want to reopen the drain, you only need to use the breath of the source again.

The process of reopening the drain will take less time.

Another vivid example is:

The process from the beginning of using the breath of source to entering the "state of no self" is a bit like sinking into the bottom of the sea.

As the sea bottom gradually approaches, Ogata's degree of concentration gradually increases. When reaching the bottom of the sea and the degree of concentration reaches the highest level, he can enter the "state of selflessness".

Exiting the "Selfless Realm" halfway means leaving the bottom of the sea and starting to float.

But in the middle of the ascent, if you want to enter the "no-self state" again, it will take a shorter time because you are closer to the bottom of the sea.

...

...

The pain from the wound on my left shoulder that I accidentally pulled while practicing "Cicada Rain" gradually subsided.

After the pain subsided completely, Ogata erected the two branches in his hands again, preparing to practice "Cicada Rain" again, so he was familiar with the feel of using this move.

However——Ogata had just erected the branch again when he suddenly heard the sound of the paper sliding door being pulled open.

A-Machi didn't knock on the door, and didn't make a notification, just opened the door of Ogata's room carelessly.

"Ah!" Seeing Ogata holding the branch, A-Machi exclaimed, "Didn't I tell you not to move around until the injury on your body is completely healed?"

At a glance, Ogata saw that Ogata was practicing sword again, instead of resting in bed properly, he rushed forward angrily, and snatched the two branches from Ogata's hand.

"A-Machi..." Ogata cast a helpless look at A-Machi, "Can't you knock on the door or give an announcement before you enter the room..."

"Why? Are you worried that I'll see what you're doing after I enter the room? Well, let's not talk about it, let's talk about business. Ayi, Asai is here. He said he has something important to tell you."

After hearing the name Asai, Ogata raised his eyebrows.

"Okay, I'll go down right away."

...

...

During the period of recuperation at Fuma's house, Ogata experienced the feeling of running around wearing only a thin kimono for the first time in a long time.

The last time I ran around in a thin kimono was before leaving Hirose Domain.

After leaving the Hirose domain, because he has been wandering around, Ogata has always been wearing full equipment such as kimono, hakama, and foot bags.

Asai was considered a guest, and since he was meeting a guest, he couldn't be too casual, so with the help of A-Machi, Ogata arranged his kimono and hair as quickly as possible, and then quickly went down to a Upstairs, into the living room.

Entering the living room, I saw Asai who was sipping tea and waiting for Ogata to arrive.

Looking at the well-dressed Ogata, Asai smiled slightly:

"Yi Dao Zhai, you don't need to be so troublesome, just feel free."

"It's a matter of habit." Ogata smiled slightly, and knelt down opposite Asai.

These days, Asai is the person who comes most frequently to report the "results of Heitaro's torture" to Ogata and the others.

And Asai's personal image is also particularly suitable for serving as a diplomat.

Good-looking, very elegant manners, excellent conversation, he is simply a born diplomat.

It would be even more perfect if Asai could have the aura of a "noble son" like Shimada.

After slowly putting down the teacup in his hand, Asai said softly:

"Ittosai, the torture of that Heitaro has paid off."

"He finally spit out the information in their Shiranui."

"After Shiranui cooperated with the shogunate, they really moved their base from Shiranui."

Hearing Asai's words, the expressions of Ogata and Atachi became serious.

"Where did you move?" Ogata asked.

"Edo." Asai said.

"Edo?" Ogata exclaimed.

"Yes." Asai nodded lightly, "According to that Heitaro - they moved their base to Edo at the request of the shogunate."

"...So that's the case." Ogata sneered, "Should we increase the supervision on Shiranui..."

"It should be." Asai sneered along with Ogata, "Transferring the 'companion' who I don't feel at ease to under my nose for easy supervision-this kind of thing is not uncommon in ancient and modern China and abroad."

"Where is the new base in Shiranui located in Edo?" Ogata asked, "Edo is very big."

Edo was the largest city at this time, and even became the largest city in the world at one point.

In terms of area and degree of prosperity, it can be said that it is an all-round blow to Kyoto, which has not fully recovered from the "Tianming Fire".

Hearing this question from Ogata, Asai shook his head:

"That Heitaro said that he didn't know where their new base in Shiranui was located in Edo."
