I Was a Swordsman in Ancient Japan

After loudly announcing his name, the Yangshen in Yuanyi's right hand was pulled out with an arc-shaped saber light.

The rain curtain was cut off, and a gap was forcibly cut in the thick rain curtain.

The cold light reflected from the blade pierced towards Ji Jiu who was standing on the right side of Yuan Yi.

Jijiu took a deep breath, shook the tip of the short spear, and smashed it at the sun god that Yuan Yi had cut.

Looking at the tip of the spear thrown by Ji Jiu, Yuan Yi narrowed his eyes slightly, and the movement of his right hand grabbing the knife changed slightly.

Yangshen was still slashing straight at the tip of the spear thrown by Ji Jiu.

However, the aura wrapped around the sword has changed slightly.

clang!

Yangshen's blade collided with Jijiu's spear without any accidents, shaking the surrounding raindrops away.

The weapons of a person with "undead power" and a person whose body is still in the category of ordinary people collide - this kind of competition in strength, no matter how you think about it, the former has the upper hand.

But the fact is - the former's gun was directly knocked away by the latter's knife!

——It's like this again!

Looking at the scene presented in front of his eyes, Ji Jiu's expression became ferocious uncontrollably.

After a short confrontation with Yuan Yi last night, Ji Jiu deeply realized that compared with Yuan Yi, the only advantage he has is his physical ability far beyond ordinary people and his terrifying power under the transformation of "undead power". Restoration.

But his small advantage could not be turned into a victory in front of Yuan Yi.

The reason for this is because Yuan Yi's energy-transforming and energy-dissolving skills can be said to have entered the realm of perfection.

Once the swung attack touched Genichi's knife, it would be like hitting a ball of extremely soft cotton.

Most of the force on the gun body was directly eliminated by Yuan Yi's energy-transforming and force-dissolving skills, and in the end the power was less than one-third of the original power - just like now.

According to Jijiu's prediction, if his blow just now could hit Yuanyi's knife solidly, it would certainly be able to shake Yuanyi's knife away. He didn't shake Yuan Yi's knife away, but his own weapon was blocked, and his body was wide open!

Will not let go of any fleeting opportunity - this can be regarded as the instinct of a swordsman like Genichi... no, a swordsman who has experienced thousands of battles.

Seeing that Yoshihisa's body was wide open because the gun head was blocked by him, Genichi immediately took 2 steps in the direction of Yoshihisa, and when he got close to the distance where he could launch an effective attack on Yoshihisa, he held up Yanrong in his left hand.

However——before he had time to chop down Yan Rong, Yuan Yi felt the wind pressure and ominous breath of something approaching from his side.

Sensing that the danger was approaching, Genichi stopped his pursuit of Yoshihisa, took half a step back, and avoided the vertical slash from Toyotomi Nobuhide who was standing on his left.

Yoshimitsu's blade almost slashed across Genichi's nose.

While dodging Toyotomi Nobuhide's blow, Genichi immediately launched a swift counterattack.

Originally, he was going to strike at Yanrong, who was in Yoshihisa, but turned to strike at Toyotomi Nobuhide.

The offense and defense were exchanged in an instant.

It was Toyotomi Nobuhide who launched the attack just now, while Genichi defended, and now the positions of the two sides have been directly exchanged.

Yan Rong's blade cut through layers of rain curtains, the target: Toyotomi Nobuhide's right hand holding the knife.

Because Yan Rong was a wakizawa, it was not long enough, so he couldn't cut Toyotomi Nobuhide's head - but it was more than enough to cut Toyotomi Nobuhide's hand holding the knife.

Realizing that Genichi was planning to cut off his knife-holding hand and weaken his strength, Toyotomi Nobuhide took a deep breath and took back the Yoshimitsu bone that he chopped out just now.

Immediately afterwards, with the tip of the knife pointing obliquely to the right front of the body, lay Jiguang Gushi obliquely in front of the body.

clang!

The moment Toyotomi Nobuhide put on such a weird defensive posture, Yan Rong's blade hit him.

"Humph!"

Toyotomi Nobuhide snorted coldly, shaking his hands holding the knife, Yan Rong who hit the blade of Yoshikogushi's knife seemed to be sliding away on a slide,

Slide aside along the slanted blade of Yoshinori's obliquely pointing to the ground.

In the next moment, Toyotomi Nobuhide turned the blade sharply, and changed the blade pointing obliquely at the ground to the sky in an instant, and then slashed at Genichi heavily.

Offense and defense were swapped again.

Seeing the series of actions Toyotomi Nobuhide made just now, Genichi's eyebrows twitched slightly.

——The rice wife who has no outflow...

[Note · "Inazuma" is a real sword skill in Wudaoliu. It uses the kind of action that Toyotomi Nobuhide used in the previous article to parry the enemy's slash and then quickly retaliate with the enemy. 】

Recognizing at a glance what kind of sword skill Toyotomi Nobuhide used just now, Genichi sneered lightly.

——Is there no outflow...

——It’s really nostalgic.

——The first school of swordsmanship I learned...was No Outflow.

Genichi took a deep breath, and then made a movement that surprised Toyotomi Nobuhide uncontrollably—he drew the Yangshen in his right hand toward his body, and pointed the tip of the Yangshen's knife obliquely at the side of his body. Forward right.

The movement...is exactly the same as the movement Toyotomi Nobuhide made just now.

Yangshen stopped the incoming Ji Guanggushi in the sky. .

After Yoshihisa, Toyotomi Nobuhide experienced the feeling of being cut on thick cotton with a knife.

After dissipating most of the strength of Toyotomi Nobuhide's sword with the force-eliminating technique, Genichi shook one hand, and Yoshimitsu Gushi slid aside along the Yangshen's blade just like Yan Rong just now.

But Genichi didn't have time to launch a counterattack—because Yoshihisa's support came.

Genichi and Toyotomi Nobuhide's series of violent attacks and defenses just now were completed in just a few seconds.

Within a few seconds, Ji Jiu had already regained his posture.

He touched the back of his waist with his left hand, and took out three shurikens strung together with thin ropes, and then threw them vigorously towards Yuan.

Because the three shurikens are all made of thin ropes, the flight trajectory is extremely strange, and it is easy for people who are not good at dealing with this kind of throwing weapons to know the direction of defense and dodge.

And obviously - Yuan Yi is not in the category of "not good at dealing with throwing weapons".

He calmly pointed Yan Rong forward.

Do not do any other actions.

He just stood Yan Rong in front of him.

clang!

After the three shurikens strung together collided with Yan Rong's blade, they bounced to the side.

As if watching a performance after lifting the curtain, Yuan Yi just flicked the flying shuriken away, and saw a gun head rapidly zooming in within his field of vision.

The shuriken that Yoshihisa threw just now was purely to confuse Genichi, he didn't expect these 3 shurikens to cause any damage to the "Sword Master".

He just hoped to use these 3 shurikens to cover his thrusts immediately after the shurikens.

Jijiu is not alone this time.

After he stabbed the gun at Genichi, Toyotomi Nobuhide on the side also attacked at the same time.

The two of them launched a 90-degree pincer attack on Yuan Yi, one front and one left.

Yuan Yi didn't pay too much attention to Ji Jiu from the beginning to the end.

Glancing at Yoshihisa, after recognizing Yoshihisa's attack direction and attack trajectory, he focused all his attention on Toyotomi Nobuhide.

Toyotomi Nobuhide still launched a vertical slash this time.

But it was no longer the reckless and forceful heavy chop of Shi Xianliu.

He wasn't in the standard top stance with the knife raised above his head.

Instead, he held Jiguang Gushi with both hands, passed Jiguang Gushi over his left shoulder, and carried Jiguang Gushi behind his back.

When the back of Yoshimitsu's knife was almost attached to Toyotomi Nobuhide's back, Toyotomi Nobuhide slashed the knife towards Genichi.

The corners of Yuan Yi's eyes twitched slightly again:

——Katori Shinto style's rolling strike... Realizing that Shigen's heavy slash is difficult, so I switched to this more flexible slash...

【Note·"Rolling" is a real sword skill of Katori Shinto. Many sword skills of the Katori Shinto style are designed on the premise that "the sword skill user is wearing a full set of armor". Because ancient Japanese helmets generally have strange decorations, it is not convenient to use the upper posture of holding the knife above the head while wearing the helmet, so "rolling" came into being instead of holding the knife high Over the head, but tilt the knife back, let the knife body pass over the shoulder, back to the back, and then use the centrifugal force to chop the knife out]

Being attacked by two people at the same time, Yuan Yi didn't hold back, and didn't fight hard with the two, but used footwork to withdraw to the right rear, far away from the attack range of the two.

This is the first time that Toyotomi Nobuhide and Yoshihisa have successfully forced Genichi back since the official start of the war. Although they did not cause any major damage to Genichi, they have made some progress.

Without any instructions or reminders, Toyotomi Nobuhide and Yoshihisa launched a continuous onslaught on Genichi like two big claws of a crab.

Attacks that can be blocked directly are blocked directly.

Attacks that cannot be blocked directly must be dodged by footwork.

Whether it's defense or dodge, Genichi's level can be rated as the first class without a doubt.

But even for the first-class defense and dodge, it is difficult to do it with ease against two "non-humans" with "undead power" as opponents.

Under the non-stop onslaught of the two, soon——the two created their biggest victory so far.

Genichi dodged backwards again, after avoiding the spear head that Yoshihisa threw at him, Toyotomi Nobuhide spotted Genichi taking a step back, the gap where the old strength had been exerted and the new strength had not been exerted, and he switched to a single position holding the knife With the knife in hand, holding the lower part of Yoshikogushi's handle with his right hand, he threw the knife in his hand towards Yuanichi's left leg with a strange movement, pulling out the light of the knife that made a short gap in the rain curtain.

——Yagiyu Xinyin Stream's Yan Fei...

[Note: Yan Fei is also one of the real moves of Liusheng Xinyinliu. The author is also studying the specific content of the move. He only knows that it is a kind of slash with one hand holding a knife and throwing the knife out with centrifugal force]

It was too late to dodge——Yuanyi, who quickly made this judgment in his heart, stopped Yangshen on the "must pass" of Jiguang Gushi.

The defense this time was a bit hasty, so Jiguang Gushi could not be completely blocked by the stilling technique, and only made Jiguang Gushi deviate from the original slashing track.

Originally, the slash that could have cut Yuan Yi's left leg along the knee, left only a cut on Yuan Yi's leg that was not deep, but the amount of bleeding was not small.

Before he had time to taste the pain in his leg, a new attack came again——Jijiu aimed at Genichi's injured lower body, and stabbed the short spear in his hand out afterimages.

Under Ji Jiu's quick stabbing, Ji Jiu's hand and gun suddenly seemed to have a few more.

Although the left leg has an extra cut, the injury to the left leg will not have much negative impact on Yuan Yi's movements.

Genichi used clever movements that were not too dull, like an elegant dancer, did a "four consecutive backflips", and opened the distance between himself and Toyotomi Nobuhide and Yoshihisa in one breath.

Yuan Yi's original intention was to take a short break in his posture by creating a distance.

It's a pity that Toyotomi Nobuhide and Yoshihisa have seen through his obvious intentions.

The act of keeping the distance apart doesn't have much effect on these two people - because both of them are people whose physical fitness is far beyond ordinary people.

Yuan Yi had just retreated, and the two immediately followed, "sticking" to Yuan Yi tightly.

As soon as the old man stood still, he saw the faces of Toyotomi Nobuhide and Yoshihisa just a few feet away from him.

Holding a short gun, Yoshihisa circled behind Genichi, intending to double-team Genichi with Toyotomi Nobuhide.

Ji Jiu has done similar actions many times.

Since the start of the war, Jijiu has tried "backward detour" countless times.

But every time, it ended in failure because of Yuan Yi's sensitivity.

Whenever he sensed that Yoshihisa seemed to be outflanking him, Genichi would immediately adjust his position, never letting his back be exposed to the enemy.

Genichi relied on his keenness and agility to make Toyotomi Nobuhide and Yoshihisa only appear within the range of his eyes at any time.

Jijiu's "backward detour" this time did not surprise anyone——failed again.

As soon as Gen jumped forward to the left, he jumped out of Yoshihisa's outflanking him.

However - as soon as his feet hit the ground, Ji Guanggushi's blade shattered the rain curtain again and slashed towards him.

Another Katori Shinto style roll.

"It's really endless..."

Yuan Yi's murmur was quite flat.

But in this plainness, there is a bit of... joy.

The old man took a deep breath, and then turned his body counterclockwise using his left foot as the axis.

If Ogata had been there, seeing Genichi's action, he might feel very nostalgic.

Because the move that Genichi is using now is one of the secret skills he taught to Ogata before - dodge.

Genichi turned his body counterclockwise, avoiding the blow from Toyotomi Nobuhide, and then, using the centrifugal force brought by the turning of his body, cut out a horizontal knife light, and swung the knife towards Toyotomi Nobuhide's belly.

The human stomach can be said to be one of the most vulnerable points.

There is no such thing as bones that can be used for defense, only some skin and flesh that can be used for defense, which is no different from paper.

And there are many important organs in the abdomen.

Stomach, large intestine, small intestine, bladder, kidney...

Once the stomach is stabbed deeply and the internal organs are injured, the survival rate can be said to be terribly low based on the level of medical skills of this era.

Therefore——unless it was a desperate lunatic, normal people would immediately dodge or defend against all the slashing blows towards their stomachs.

This is something close to common sense.

But this common sense is invalid at this moment.

Facing Genichi's horizontal slash by centrifugal force, Toyotomi Nobuhide didn't dodge or dodge, just stood straight in place.

After putting on an appearance of "you can cut whatever you want", he raised the Jiguang bone food in his hand, ready to chase Yuan Yi in front of him! Katori Shinto-ryu's rolling strike was used again, and he slashed at Genichi's forehead.

While standing still and launching a new pursuit to Genichi, a smug smile appeared on Toyotomi Nobuhide's face as if he had seen his plan succeed.

Yuan Yi's pupils shrank slightly at this moment.

He suddenly remembered something.

He immediately made movement adjustments.

Using his right arm, he stopped the attack on Toyotomi Nobuhide, then rolled to the side and escaped from Toyotomi Nobuhide.

Although Yuan Yi's movements were quite timely and swift, in the end, Yoshiko Gushi's blade inadvertently cut a wound that was not shallow but not deep at the corner of the left eyebrow.

"Almost forgot..."

Genichi, who was rolling to the side, quickly stood still on the deck of the ship and placed the two knives in front of him again, using his jujitsu receiving technique.

[Shou body: One of the basic techniques of Jiu-Jitsu, it is a method of self-safety protection to reduce the impact on oneself when being knocked down by an opponent or by oneself. 】

"You are 'monsters' that are not easy to be hacked to death. We cannot fight you in the same way as ordinary people."

"Heh, after fighting normal people for most of my life, it is really difficult to temporarily change the combat experience I have cultivated over the years."

"Ah? You said we are 'monsters'?" Toyotomi Nobuhide put away the "planned" smile just now, and stared at Genichi with a face with obvious impatience, "If we are 'monsters'... then what are you who can fight back and forth with these two 'monsters' with your own strength?"

"Being able to fight back and forth with me already shows that the two of you are considered 'monsters'." Genichi calmly wiped the blood dripping from the wound at the corner of his left eyebrow, "It's been a long time since I went all out after going all out. , and was chopped down by someone.”

"'Sword Master' Genichi... I expected that you would be very difficult to deal with, but I didn't expect it to be so difficult..." Toyotomi Nobuhide and Yoshihisa double-teamed Genichi again.

Today's chapter is another chapter of high quality, so ask for a monthly pass! (Leopard Head Crying.jpg) Ask for a monthly pass! Ask for a monthly pass!

For today's chapter, the author has been looking for Wuwailiu, Katori Shinto-ryu and other martial arts videos of various genres on the Internet since yesterday, and learned their moves. I believe that everyone can see the author's learning achievements and painstaking QAQ between the lines.

In fact, the author doesn't have to work so hard, just be lazy and let the characters act like the name of the dish, you use this move, I will use that move, and don't write in detail how their attack and defense are unfolded and interchanged, just casually Write some "jingling" special effects to fool readers.

But in this way, it is no longer a "sword and halberd novel" or a "samurai novel".

The reason why Wuwailiu named that move "Inazuma" is because "Inazuma" means "thunder" in Japanese.

The ancient Japanese discovered that thunder often strikes when the rice meets the grain (autumn), so they believed that the thunder and lightning were brought by the rice and the wife of the rice, so they called the thunder "the rice wife".

As for why Leiden is considered Daozi's wife and not her husband, I don't understand.

Therefore, in the game "Yuanshin", the allusion of setting the belief of "Daoju Country" as thunder and lightning is here. The free translation of "Daoqiuguo" is "Leiguo".

By the way: Although I don't play "Yuan Shen", the settings in "Yuan Shen" really make me feel amazing.

I have always wanted to know: Which genius came up with the setting for General Raiden to draw his sword from the R ditch? It's really great...ah, no, what a genius! It directly improves the personality charm of this character (attraction to the color batch) by several levels.

I feel that this part of the inspiration may be taken from the "Crown of Guilty", which draws the sword from the chest. Based on this, it was changed to General Raiden's R-groove sword.
