………………………………………………………………………………
After Liu Sheng finished speaking, he stepped back a few steps, and several young warriors came over with swords, forming a siege. They didn't want to bully others like this, but the young man in front of them was not easy to deal with.
Three people!
There were three people in total!
The two leading people looked at each other and decided on the battle method.
The man on the left shook his wrist, and the bamboo sword stabbed diagonally. This bamboo sword should be specially made, black, reflecting a cold light. Although it is not as good as a real sword in the hands of a swordsman, a sword pierced his throat and rushed forward, and there was a strong wind hitting him in the face.
The man on the right was half a step slower, but he mainly attacked the middle three roads, focusing on the left side.
The last young warrior to fall behind fell behind the others and gathered his strength to attack.
Bai Gui closed his eyelids slightly, and immediately grasped the handle of the bamboo sword on the ground with his right palm, took a small step, and went forward.
He deliberately exposed a gap in his stomach, and crossed the bamboo sword across his chest to block the throat stab of the young warrior on the left.
In close combat, the right hand came with a recoil force!
Bai Gui raised his arm and swung the bamboo sword, which slid down and stabbed diagonally, blocking the man on the right again. However, in the blink of an eye, while the man on the right was stabbing the stomach, he added his left hand to hold the handle of the sword, and the tip of the sword was diagonally across the right, blocking the attacking bamboo sword.
He used two things at once, and kicked the lower body with a sweeping kick.
The two people shrank back and took a half step back.
The situation changed!
Bai Gui relied on his high strength and took advantage of the two people's low steps to protect their lower body, and held the sword with both hands to press down the bamboo swords of the two people.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
There were constant sounds of sword attacks like rainstorms!
Twisting waists like millstones!
The explosive force of the swinging force was faster than the last.
At first, the two young warriors could still catch it, but in the blink of an eye, they caught dozens of swords, their wrists ached, and they could no longer hold the handles of the swords.
It was like a rainstorm, and the banana tree could catch the water.
But the water was too much and it poured down!
The young warrior who fell behind the two men saw that Bai Gui was unprepared and exposed his flaws, so he rushed forward and stabbed Bai Gui in the right rib.
One person not fighting was much more dangerous than three people fighting at the same time.
Because you need to be fully alert to distract yourself from the enemy, and you can't devote all your attention to the battle.
Very insidious! Very cunning!
"Come on!"
Bai Gui sneered, he made a feint and relaxed his offensive. The two young warriors who were facing the enemy suddenly relaxed their minds when they saw this, and before they could react, they saw a cold white tooth reflected in the depths of their pupils.
Then, the young man was seen flying through the forest like a kite, slashing into the forest, punching one man in the chest and abdomen, and then turning around and hitting the other man in the back with a punch.
These two punches made the two men's eyes roll back and they felt dizzy.
No matter how exquisite the swordsmanship was, it was a pity that it was only a bamboo sword and it was difficult to win immediately, so Bai Gui directly injured them with the Pi Gua Quan. Pi Gua Quan was an extremely fierce fist, and even if these two warriors were hit in the vital parts, they would not be able to get up for a while.
In the midst of Bai Gui's struggle with the two young warriors, the warrior who was looking for an opportunity to stab was no longer useful.
This was also Bai Gui's intention.
He took this opportunity to turn the passive into the active.
"With this sword, I will show you what real swordsmanship is..."
Bai Gui narrowed his eyes and looked at the last young warrior who was seven or eight steps away from him. He rushed forward at this moment, his pace getting faster and faster. When the young warrior stared at his sword, he saw that the bamboo sword that was pressed diagonally was thrown into the air by him.
Confused? Surprised?
The young warrior was uneasy. He had just been in high spirits, but then he was weak. Now he was a little demoralized. When he met the enemy, he had a premonition of defeat before the battle, so he was timid in attacking the enemy.
He didn't know whether to stare at the sword or the person.
But the person had already arrived, one or two steps away from him, so he collected his mind and held the sword to meet the enemy.
The bamboo sword fell, just beside the young man, and he caught the sword. Without turning the handle, the blade slashed forward diagonally.
It was a very simple action.
The sword technique of breaking the front - throwing the sword and catching the sword!
"I lost!"
Nakata Sanban looked at the bamboo sword across his waist and abdomen, and the young man who was squatting and bending his knees. His mind was a little dazed, his expression was slightly stunned, and his pupils were dilated.
He didn't even see how the sword was drawn just now, and the hand holding the bamboo sword was also shaking slightly.
If it were a real fight now, I'm afraid he would have been killed by seppuku long ago!
"Won?"
Yagyu's eyes were slightly fixed, and his voice was cold and hoarse, "The three of them are not real shogunate samurai, but I taught them some sporadic kendo skills..."
He walked forward, and he had seen some of the sword moves just now.
He had a certain degree of confidence.
"The real Yagyu Shinkage-ryu Kendo, it's me!"
He spoke each word.
The hyena staring at the prey laughed, and the cold venomous snake spit out its tongue.
There was a commotion outside the field.
Most of them were voices of defending injustice.
There were some Japanese among them.
In Japan, Bushido is part of the spiritual core of Japan. But many people are not very fond of Bushido, especially some students in the Faculty of Literature of the First Faculty, who regard these people as reckless men.
Not to mention, the current sword ban order, in the eyes of many people, samurai are things of the old times, and civilized people in the new era should not be so barbaric, which is also part of Westernization.
"Come on, let me learn the swordsmanship of your Qing Dynasty!"
Yagyu Yishi turned a blind eye. A real samurai can abandon some distractions and only win and take the enemy's head!
"Senior Yagyu, please wait!"
Bai Gui slowly put away the bamboo sword and held it in his hand, but not in a posture to meet the enemy. He wiped the sweat from his forehead. It seemed that the battle just now was only a few minutes, but it consumed a lot of physical strength. He took a few breaths and said: "I must have remembered the content of the letter of challenge correctly, and I shouldn't have remembered it wrong..."
Yagyu Yishi's face was a little cold, as if he realized something.
This guy doesn't look like a young and energetic person!
"I said..."
"Challenge all the kendo halls and judo clubs of No. 1 High School and the University of Tokyo, whether they are students or teachers, but if I remember correctly, I am the deputy director, and I am qualified to check the list of students and teachers of the kendo club and judo club, and your name is not on it!"
Bai Gui paused, "You asked me to challenge you, this is very difficult to do!"
He is not a reckless man. If he really looks down on everything, he will suffer a great loss. Only with enough confidence can he do things that are sure to win. A little uncertainty is also within the tolerance range.
No. 1 High School is just a university preparatory course for two years, so it is connected with the kendo club and judo club of the University of Tokyo. As the deputy director, it is not difficult for him to check some lists, and there is nothing to hide.
And outside the house, a piece of low laughter sounded.
Yagyu Ichi's face was very ugly, and his expression kept changing.
He had calculated everything, and he didn't hesitate to be despicable and shameless, but he didn't see this point. From beginning to end, Bai Gui's tactical post did not say that he wanted to challenge him, a samurai left at the end of the shogunate.
Moreover, he lost face in front of so many people.
"But..., Senior Liu Sheng, since you want to fight with me, a junior, then..."
"I will do as you say!"
Before he finished speaking, Bai Gui suddenly changed his movements, and he put his hands on the hilt of the sword, and drew his sword.
The Broken Blade Technique - Draw the Sword! Something unexpected happened!
No one expected that Bai Gui, who had just "showed weakness", would suddenly draw his sword. They thought that this time the challenge to the Liu Sheng Kendo Club would end here.
It came too suddenly.
Liu Sheng Yishi did not expect it either. His pupils suddenly shrank, and he retreated quickly to avoid the approaching sword. But because of this unpreparedness, he was taken advantage of first, and the momentum he had just cultivated was suddenly interrupted, which caught him off guard.
For a powerful swordsman, the moment of drawing the sword is crucial!
He was approached and could not draw his sword.
As Bai Gui approached Liu Sheng Yi Shi, his sword and hand merged into one, constantly biting and entangled, trying to snatch Liu Sheng Yi Shi's sword, and the tip of the bamboo sword kept hitting Liu Sheng Yi Shi's right hand holding the sword.
Pi Gua Quan - Transformed into Goose Hand!
This is a sword technique taken from Pi Gua Quan, with the goose beak biting tightly.
Liu Sheng Yi Shi had never encountered such a scene before, and he was beaten so hard that he had no room for maneuver and could not draw his sword, so he was forced to be on the defensive.
"Attack your mind first, break your spirit!"
"Then take your sword!"
"Senior Liu Sheng, what do you think of my advice to you?"
Bai Gui said while fighting, speaking very quickly.
Surprise attack, no, these two words are too ugly, he was attacking by surprise!
Anyway, he had said before that this time was for the wish of senior Liu Sheng, not for a duel, so it was not so important whether he attacked or not, and he had already beaten so many people, so it didn't seem so despicable to take the lead.
Liu Shengyi's face became more and more gloomy. He pursed his lips tightly, untied the belt with the cane and sword, and pushed the tip of the sword forward with his backhand, not avoiding the goose beak, and hit Bai Gui's elbow.
This is the flaw of this move.
No matter how strong the goose beak bites, the weakness is on the goose's curved neck.
"Young man, don't be too young and arrogant. No matter how you rush ahead, you are not my opponent!"
"Young and arrogant?"
"Senior Liu Sheng, you are wrong. Some people also said that I am too steady. Let me be more rampant!"
After a few moves, relying on the intuition from fighting on the battlefield, Liu Shengyi immediately saw the weakness.
But when the cane and sword were pushed, Bai Gui did not avoid it, but rushed forward, clamped the blade of the cane and sword with his left elbow, approached Liu Shengyi with less than half a step away, and held the bamboo sword in his right hand, and knocked it up hard with the handle of the bamboo sword.
Knocked Liu Shengyi's chin.
As if hit by a heavy hammer, Yagyu took a few steps back. When everyone saw clearly, his lower jaw was deformed and blood was oozing from his mouth and nose.
"Since Senior Yagyu is unwilling to teach me more, then today's battle will end here! If you want to challenge me again, please publish a formal challenge in the newspaper, and don't do these petty things..."
"I wonder what Senior Yagyu thinks?"
"I forgot that Senior Yagyu doesn't like to talk!"
Bai Gui took back the bamboo sword, shook his head, and sighed.
He looked at the bloodstains on the bamboo sword with some disgust, abandoned the sword and walked away.
Clank, clank, waves of echoes rang out.
Walked out of the Japanese house.
"Brother Meihe's move is really gratifying."
"I didn't expect these Japanese warriors to be so despicable, and they actually bullied the minority with their numbers..."
"..."
The Japanese students gathered around Bai Gui and said with a smile.
One humiliation, one honor, one honor.
This victory over the Yagyu Kendo Club, as well as the defeat of Yagyu once, greatly increased their confidence to be a high-ranking student. From now on, no one will dare to look down upon them.
"I'm serious, I'm just trying my best. People who practice martial arts can't see this the most."
Bai Gui said modestly.
The reason why he was able to defeat Yagyu Hayashi just now was because of his step-by-step guidance. First, he used verbal guidance to make Yagyu Hayashi mistakenly think that he would not compete with him, and then he attacked eagerly to prevent Yagyu Hayashi from having any chance to draw his sword.
It can be said that most of the Japanese swordsman's kung fu is spent on swordsmanship. Once he can no longer use the sword or draw the sword, he can be said to have been more than half disabled. If he is bullied into old age and exhausted, unable to draw the sword and run away, then he will This wins.
Otherwise, with his strength, he would not be able to win so quickly.
A bold move this time.
Not only to step on Yagyu Ichi’s face, but also...a plan to build momentum for him.
Once Yagyu is not like the unknown teachers in the kendo club, but the owner of the Tokyo Yagyu Kendo Hall, he is also quite famous in kendo in Japan.
What's more..., he also has a sure-fire plan. If he really loses to Yagyu Ichi, he must explain in advance that he is just asking for advice from the juniors and does not give Yagyu Ichi a tactical advice. He will not lose much reputation.
As for whether Yagyu will kill them all once, he doesn't have the strength yet...
Bai Gui still has the ability to protect himself.
His body at this time was much larger than that of an ordinary person.
Why refuse something that is free of charge?
With this great victory of the Yagyu Kendo Club, Bai Gui went on to kick out several other kendo clubs. These kendo clubs were not as powerful as the Yagyu Kendo Club. The Yagyu Kendo Club was the largest kendo club in Ichigao.
"Bai Sang, Bai Sang..."
"I admire your talent very much, and I want you to sign it for me. Don't be cruel!"
A student from the Kendo club turned pale with fright and said quickly.
Not long after, three kendo clubs and two judo clubs in the first high school were kicked out by Bai Gui. These kendo clubs and judo clubs also learned well and surrendered when the situation was not good. Anyway, even Yagyu, a senior samurai, was If they lose, they don't seem to have such a big burden whether they lose or not...
Bai Gui's physical strength also recovered quickly and he was able to handle the challenge with ease.
"Are you still going to Dongda University?"
Wu Huaixian asked.
This time Bai Gui challenged not only Ichigao, but also Todai. However, most of the teachers and students of Togao's Kendo club also came to Ichigao to meet the challenge. After all, the news of Yagyu's defeat soon spread to Todai. They can't sit still anymore...
"Go! We haven't done our best yet, and Dongda is not necessarily that powerful!"
Bai Gui glanced at Wu Huaixian and understood what he meant.
After challenging all the kendo clubs and judo clubs in Yigao, his reputation has been greatly improved. Going to Dongda University now is undoubtedly a bit "excessive". I am afraid that many Japanese people will not tolerate this...
So, choose to take a step back and the sky will be brighter.
"this……"
Wu Huai sighed first, his face still a little worried.
Bai Gui immediately explained: "Once I have defeated Yagyu, it is no big deal to challenge Dongda. This is not because the entire Dongying Kendo world has lost to me, but only a part of the people. The older generation has not yet fully defeated them." If I lose, nothing will happen to me..."
It doesn't matter if you challenge the first high school or Dongda University. After all, they are all students, so it counts as a martial arts exchange.
As for Yagyu, he is not the most powerful samurai!
This has a different meaning from overturning the Japanese swordsmanship world. It hasn’t risen to that high a height yet.
The former can show off one's ambition...but the latter is a national humiliation and will not stop until death!
Keep it tight, there won't be any danger. The next day.
The headline of the "Yomiuri Shimbun" newspaper read: "Qing students from the Qing Dynasty kicked off the first high school and all the kendo clubs and judo clubs of the University of Tokyo won a big victory."
"Asahi Shimbun": "The martial arts of the Qing Dynasty are shocking!"
"Mainichi Shimbun": "Yagyu, the remaining samurai of the shogunate, was defeated by a Qing student."
…
Every major newspaper that is a household name in Japan published the incident of Bai Gui's kicking the club. The titles used were different, but the content was similar. The name Bai Gui and Bai Meihe were suddenly known to everyone in Japan.
The news received mixed reviews on each news section.
Some news sources said: "The samurai were arrogant and narrow-minded, which damaged the relationship between Japan and Qing Dynasty and almost caused a catastrophe. According to a recent investigation by our magazine, the reason was that the samurai in the Kendo Club did not recruit Qing students from abroad. Bai Gui was out of righteous indignation..."
"Samurai are a cancer of the shogunate era and should have been eliminated long ago. Once Yagyu wears a staff sword, he violates the order to abolish swords and should be punished..."
"Once Yagyu was ashamed of being a samurai, he actually attacked in groups..."
"Su Xun of the Qing Dynasty and the Song Dynasty once said, 'If you fight for justice, you can be victorious.' Once Yagyu and his kendo club fought an unjust battle, a disastrous defeat is the due course of friendship..."
There are also some negative comments, but these comments are relatively few.
Strictly speaking, the commentators who write articles in the newspaper tend to be Westernized, and most of the people who run the newspaper are advanced intellectuals who have studied abroad. There is a big separation from the samurai class, so the news published is extremely unfavorable to the samurai.
Not to mention that once Yagyu used the staff sword this time, it would be considered a violation of the order to abolish the sword, which was even more disgusting.
Not everyone likes the samurai during the shogunate period. Those samurai were loyal to the shogunate and unruly...
In contrast, Bai Gui is fighting for justice this time. No matter what he thinks in his heart, he must give positive comments.
But what is surprising is that the female writer Ryuko Tanabe commented in the Asahi Shimbun newspaper: "Unexpectedly, Bai Jun is not only outstanding in literary talent, but also talented. He won the Three Yuan Scholarship in Chang'an and wrote novels such as "The Great Qin Empire". And the martial arts is so strong, it’s really admirable.”
Later, Mori Ogai and other literary giants also began to praise Hakui.
Compared with the dissatisfied and disgusted samurai from their country, writers such as Mori Ogai still considered Shirogui, a fellow novelist, more approachable and began to support him.
"Thank you, Tanabe-senpai, for your help."
A restaurant.
Bai Gui expressed his gratitude and poured a cup of coffee for Tanabe Ryuko.
The two sat opposite each other.
"It's not like I'm helping you. I've seen these warriors commit evil before. When I was young, I even saw a warrior test a sword with an inhuman way..."
"I still can't forget that scene."
"Senior Mori and the others are like this too."
Ryuko Tanabe said quietly.
Satsuma Domain and Choshu Domain were the main powerful vassals in the Overthrow Movement, and the number of warriors in Satsuma Domain can be seen. The outbreak of the Southwest War was also in Kagoshima, the domain of Satsuma Domain.
Non-human refers to the untouchables outside the scholar, peasant, industrial and commercial classes of Japan in the old days. These non-humans would not be severely punished by the shogunate if they were killed, so samurai usually used these non-humans to test their swords. A katana usually has several swords, which means it can completely cut off several corpses with one blow, and most of these corpses come from non-human beings.
"I see, but I still have to thank Tanabe-senpai for speaking up for me."
Bai Gui suddenly realized
