Chapter 154 - The Future Is Bright, but the Road Is Tortuous, and People Cannot Be Generalized.

…

"Lord Patriarch!"

"Lord Patriarch!"

Da da da!

Along the way, the man's expression was indifferent, and even the servants who passed by to say hello lowered their heads in fear.

He walked into his room and took away the armor he needed to wear on the battlefield.

It is undeniable that the monster just now was indeed right.

He would use that monster one day, which was why he bound the monster instead of killing it.

He knows the monster's weakness - the sun.

As long as it comes into contact with the sun, the monster will tremble with fear and even turn into ashes.

This is also why he can catch monsters.

——He set up some simple mechanisms in the monster's room. During the day, he could pull the mechanism at any time to open the window sill behind the monster, letting in sunlight no matter what angle it was.

After putting on his armor, the man patted the dust on his body, and then left the family mansion without looking back under the watchful eyes of his wife and children.

He wanted to go to the battlefield himself to find out what happened!

The man's eyes were sharp and determined.

Just watch, I will definitely live a successful life...and be more successful than you!

Deep down in my heart, I secretly made a vow that I didn’t know who to say to.

…

…

Soon, it was evening.

The evening sun gradually fades, like the back of an old man on crutches, getting thinner and thinner.

The clouds on the horizon slowly dimmed, and a dark and moist atmosphere enveloped the sky.

In the courtyard in front of Ubuyashiki Residence.

"hiss--!"

"Bah——!"

The sound of violent breathing was like a rapid wind, blowing in the courtyard.

From mid-afternoon to early evening, it goes on like this.

"Hmm!" Purgatory Jinjuro's eyes shone, and he adjusted his breathing attentively.

As the one with the best ability to absorb blood among the pillars, he seems to have made faster progress in breathing techniques than the other pillars.

Although the other pillars were breathing evenly, the sweat on their heads and gritted teeth showed that things were not simple.

Things seem to be moving in a good direction.

until……

"Hiss--!!" My wife Shancun gritted her teeth and followed the method taught by Jiguo Yuanyi, violently compressing the oxygen in her lungs.

He practiced very hard and was unreasonable.

Starting from the afternoon, after witnessing the breathing method of Ji Kunoyi, my wife Shancun became like a desperate Saburo.

His face turned red from suppressing it, and he corrected it several times after being corrected by Ji Guoyuan.

Perhaps it was because he saw the hoarse cry of Jiichiro who was in a bloody state.

Or maybe it was because he saw the confused eyes of Tamako who turned into a ghost.

No matter what the reason is, my wife Shancun is now even more desperate than she was before.

He knew that he needed to become stronger.

Shang Quannai was sitting on a tree nearby. He looked at my wife Shancun with some worry.

That guy's lungs are almost numb.

This was the first time he had seen his lungs so congested.

Shang Quannai narrowed his eyes as he observed the physical condition of my wife Shancun.

My wife Shancun's lungs were already red and swollen.

The pillars, who have tempered their bodies through life-and-death battles all year round, and whose physical bodies have reached the pinnacle of human beings, fully meet the standards of directly learning the breathing method.

What's more, they are now drinking Shang Quannai's blood.

But... my wife Shancun's body... seemed unable to withstand his desperate efforts.

——"Pfft cough cough!! cough cough!!"

At this time, a sudden violent coughing sound came, which instantly attracted the attention of Enichi Jiguo who was observing everyone on the side.

"Ahem, ugh!" My wife Shancun knelt down on the ground in pain. He pinched his own throat with his hands and coughed up a large pool of blood.

Ji Guoyuan quickly leaned over, squatted down and gently patted my wife Shancun's back. He frowned slightly and looked at my wife Shancun's lungs.

"Oh...throat...lungs...it feels so uncomfortable...cough cough cough!!"

My wife Shancun held onto Jiguo Yuanyi's shoulders. He coughed and wiped the sticky stuff around his mouth.

That's blood on the corner of his mouth.

When he stretched out his hand and saw the blood on his hand, my wife Shancun's pupils shrank, and he shouted again in his hoarse voice:

"Ah!! Blood!! I ughhhhh!!"

Snapped!

Ji Guoyuan quickly covered the mouth of my wife Shancun who was about to scream with one glance, preventing the situation from getting worse.

"You should go aside and rest for a while first..." Ji Guoyuan lowered his eyes and looked at the blood on the ground, feeling very uncomfortable in his heart.

His dark red irises reflected the pain in my wife Shancun's face.

——Because...my breathing method...

——Again...because I...

The image of his younger brother gradually emerged in his mind.

In the beginning, it was also because of him.

Otherwise, his brother would not be replaced by him and become a monk who needs to become a monk.

He hates feeling like this...

After helping my wife Shancun sit aside, although his face was expressionless, he said softly:

"…Feel sorry."

My wife Shancun was stunned for a moment. He wiped the blood on the corner of his mouth with a cloth and stared blankly as Ji Guoyuan walked towards other pillars practicing breathing techniques.

--Um?

He tilted his head and looked at Shang Quannai beside him.

Not knowing where the courage came from, he subconsciously asked in a hoarse voice:

"Your Excellency Jiguo...why do you want to apologize to me?"

Shang Quannai rested his chin on his hand in boredom. He glanced at my wife Shancun:

"That's the kind of person he is."

"You'll be fine once you get used to it."

My wife Shancun slowly looked away, he lowered his head and blinked.

Looking at Ji Guoyuan's back gradually walking towards the pillars, he felt a little dazed for a moment.

…

aside.

Several Zhu were forced to rest by Ji Guoyi. They looked at each other and couldn't refuse.

They could only sit under the tree and rest anxiously.

It's like playing on your phone, suddenly remembering that you haven't done your homework, and then continuing to play on your phone with a nervous look on your face.

"No! Now is not the time to rest...cough cough cough!!" Shuiwu Yuebai stood up abruptly. He was just about to argue with something, but he coughed several times.

He rubbed his neck with his hand and frowned slightly.

My throat became hoarse, and my lungs felt like a knife.

……how come.

Shuiwu Yuebai felt the needle-like pain coming from his throat.

As soon as Ji Guoyuan stood aside, his pupils shrank slightly, the fists hidden behind him clenched slightly, he opened his mouth, and his plain tone revealed deep self-blame:

"...Please rest."

Minami Yuebai raised his head and looked at Tsukikuni Enichi. After hesitating for a while, he slowly nodded and sat back.

Next to him, Iwami Inkstone was sitting upright, with his hands clasped together and the rosary beads in his hands constantly moving.

Snap, snap.

His rough fingers delicately moved the beads.

Yan Ci felt the feeling coming from his lungs, and he always felt that the "breathing method" of Lord Jiguo didn't seem to be suitable for him.

That kind of "breathing method" was indescribable. They were a bit reluctant to use it, and he could just barely keep up with the breathing rhythm.

According to his idea, if this "breathing method" is deeper, slower and thicker, it may be easier to get started.

No, that might not be suitable for other people.

Snap, snap.

As he thought, he twiddled his rosary beads.

Just as Iwami Injima was thinking this.

Ji Guoyuan sat under the tree where Shang Quannai was lying down. He lowered his head and was thinking about a solution.

Shang Quannai looked at Ji Guoyuan with his head hanging down. The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, he held his chin with his hand and said slowly:

"Yuanyi..."

Upon hearing this, Ji Guoyuan slowly raised his head and looked at Shang Quannai, who was lying on his side on the tree.

I saw Shang Quannai supporting his head with one hand, raising the other hand, narrowing his eyes slightly, and said seriously:

"You can't generalize between people."

"I was in..."

Shang Quannai narrowed his eyes and said, his body suddenly stiffened, and then he stopped talking.

There was obviously confusion in Jiguo Yuanyi's eyes. When Shang Quanna waved his hand and refused to explain any more, he could only lower his head again.

Continue your own thinking.

He knew very well that my wife Shancun and Shui Wuyuebai were coughing because of his breathing method.

Ji Guoyuanyi can be sure that they can't learn their own breathing method.

It wasn't because of lack of experience and practice. He had a clear understanding of the world and could see it at a glance when several people coughed.

They are not adapted to their breathing rhythm.

Although their physical fitness is strong, they are far behind their own.

Your own breathing method is the "optimal solution" based on your own body.

The "optimal solution" for you may not be suitable for everyone...

At this time, Jiguo Yuanyi's mind suddenly remembered Shang Quannai's words just now.

“You can’t generalize between people.”

everyone?

As soon as Ji Guoyuan slowly raised his head, his Gujing Wubo eyes lit up slightly, as if he had thought of some good ideas.

Yeah...since my breathing method doesn't suit them.

Then create a breathing method tailor-made for each person according to their own situation...

That’s it!

Thinking about it, Ji Guoyuan raised his head and cast a grateful look at Shang Quannai.

And Shang Quanna was looking up at the last ray of sunshine that was gradually disappearing on the horizon, and did not notice the look in Jiguo Enichi's eyes.

As soon as Ji Guoyuan stood up, he looked around with clear vision, and instantly met the eyes of Ingami Jinjuro, who was in the best physical condition.

There were no signs of congestion in Purgatory Jinjuro's lungs, but just like Minazuki Shiro, his trachea seemed to have been stretched.

"What's wrong!" Purgatory Jinjuro looked at Jiguo Enichi who kept staring at him. He couldn't help but ask, "Is there something on my face?"

Although the voice also became a little hoarse, it was much better than Minazuki Bai.

"No..." Jiguoyuan shook his head slightly. He thought for a while, and then patted Purgatory Hitoshiro on the shoulder:

"...Pavilion..."

Before Tsukikuni Yuan finished speaking, Purgatory Jinjuro rushed to answer:

"Purgatory Jinjuro! My name is Purgatory Jinjuro!"

"You haven't been able to remember my name before! Although it's a bit long, it's actually easy to remember!"

Ji Guoyuan choked for a moment. He looked at Purgatory Jinjuro's passionate eyes and took two steps back.

"Your Majesty Purgatory, can you let me see your sword skills?"

"Oh! Sword skills?" Purgatory Jinjuro's fluffy hair suddenly swayed. He stood up and straightened his waist. His red flame-like pupils reflected the light in the dim evening: "No problem!"

Snapped!

He patted his chest, and then held the handle of the knife at his waist.

"I'm coming!" Purgatory Jinjuro spotted the open space in the courtyard and pulled his legs slightly back.

Jiguoyuan stared at the movements of Purgatory Jinjuro and the style of his sword skills.

My wife Shancun on the side looked at Purgatory Renjuro's starting move and was stunned for a moment, then muttered: "...Hey, isn't this the same as Thunderbolt Flash's starting move..."

But it's actually not the same.

Shang Quannai glanced at my wife Shancun sitting on the stone beneath him.

At this time, Purgatory Jinjuro standing in the middle of the courtyard moved!

He holds the hilt of the knife! He instantly pulled out the blade from his waist, and then sprinted forward!

Whoosh!

【One type·Shiranui】!

Infernal Jinjuro, whose hair was like red flames, kept his figure like a burst of flames, sprinted to a cherry blossom tree in an instant, and then violently waved the blade in his hand!

Uh-huh!

The white blade cut cleanly across the tops of the cherry blossom trees. Inferno Jinjuro flew to the ground and sheathed the sword.

Click.

Then, he slowly stood up and stretched out the hand that was not holding the knife just now.

In the palm of my hand, there was an intact cherry blossom that had been cut off from the receptacle!

"Look!" He smiled, turned his head and showed the cherry blossoms in his hand to Enichi Jiguo.

My wife Shancun sat aside and was slightly stunned for a while.

Damn it, he tricked me!

Some blue veins suddenly appeared on his expressionless face.

As soon as Jiguoyuan looked at the cherry blossoms in Purgatory Jinjuro's hand, he had a slight feeling in his heart, but he hadn't completely grasped it yet.

——Sword skills that are as hot and vigorous as flames?

——Like a raging flame…

"Are there any other sword moves?" Ji Guoyuan continued to shout to Purgatory Jinjuro who was standing not far away.

Purgatory Jinjuro blinked his eyes. He had just practiced breathing techniques all afternoon. Not only was he physically exhausted, he was also slightly mentally tired.

But it doesn't matter! No matter what difficulties you encounter, you should face them with a fiery spirit!

"Huh..." He exhaled a long breath.

"Of course!" Purgatory Jinjuro regained his energy, and he also shouted in reply to Enichi Tsukuni.

"Please." Ji Guoyuan nodded.

"oh!"

Then, under the gazes of several pillars and Enichi Tsukuni, Purgatory Jinjuro kept waving the blade in his hand.

From the one kata of sword skills, Shiranui, to the eight kata that he created, he demonstrated them all together.

And in the middle of demonstrating sword skills.

Inferno Jinjuro, who was wielding the blade, recalled in his mind the scene every time Shang Quanna carried him soaring into the sky.

First, there was a slight accumulation of force under the feet, and then a roar erupted, streaking across the sky like a meteor...

For a moment, Purgatory Jinjuro was stunned. He held the knife in his hand and had some new ideas in his mind.

"That's enough! Thank you, Lord Purgatory." At this time, Ji Guoyuan stood aside. He closed his eyes slightly and felt the sword skills of Purgatory Jinjurou firsthand.

Then, the breath that was originally as hot and round as the scorching sun changed slightly and became more vigorous and sudden.

The pillars, who had been practicing their breathing rhythm for a day, soon became keenly aware of Jiguo Enichi's changing breathing rhythm.

"Hey, hey... No, no..." Minazuki Shiro squinted at the side, grabbing Kazama Narumi's sleeves, looking at Enichi's back in disbelief.

"Amitabha..." Iwami Inkstone closed his eyes and clasped his hands together.

Shang Quannai on the side looked sideways slightly and looked up at the moon that had just risen.

Yes, in this short period of less than half an hour.

The second breathing method in the world was born.

Purgatory Jinjuro stood up with his sword put away, his chest heaving slightly as he panted, his pupils narrowed slightly and he looked at Enichi Tsukuni who was constantly adjusting his breathing rhythm.

Regarding the issue of one update a day, it is actually two updates. I just combined the two updates together. If you want to make it two updates, you can... I just need to separate them...
