I was a swordsman in ancient Japan

"What's wrong? Qiuyue! Your gun seems to be weak and weak!"

After all, the gun in Sheng Tianmu's hand turned into an even more dazzling phantom.

He first made a fake move to deceive Qiuyue's tricks, then he slashed from top to bottom, and hit Qiuyue's head heavily with the barrel of a gun.

Although there is mercy from Shengtianmu and the protection of the helmet, Qiuyue still feels staring and dizzy.

After giving Qiuyue a heavy blow on the head, Sheng Tianmu quickly changed the direction of his gun, and aimed at Qiuyue's chest with a heavy and ruthless straight stab.

As if her chest had been hit by a big rock, Qiuyue felt her blood surging, and couldn't help but take a few steps back.

But Shengtianmu combo is not over yet.

Sheng Tianmu took a step forward, closing the distance with Qiuyue, and then resorted to the "Sheng Tianmu Killing Method" passed down from generation to generation in their family.

Qiuyue's inner thighs and underarms, which were not protected by armor, were attacked with precision.

Qiuyue staggered and fell heavily to the ground.

"Admit defeat, admit defeat."

As Qiuyue spoke, she took off the helmet on top of her head, revealing her sweaty head.

"Your physical strength seems to be poor." Sheng Tianmu put away the wooden spear in his hand, and stared at Qiuyue who was sitting on the ground.

Sheng Tianmu is 43 years old this year, and Qiuyue is only 26 years old this year, but it is the younger Qiuyue who is breathing more severely, while Sheng Tianmu is only a little short of breath.

"You'd better go less to Yougao." Sheng Tianmu put on a stern tone, "I've heard that you've been going to Yougao almost every night to have fun recently."

Hearing Sheng Tianmu's words, a slight embarrassment appeared on Qiuyue's face.

Although in the Edo period, it was normal for men to go to prostitutes to have fun, and there were not many official prostitutes, but it would still be embarrassing to be accused of excessive prostitution.

"I didn't go every day." Qiuyue said in a weak tone while getting up, "I only went 7 times in 6 days."

"Is there any difference between going 7 times in 7 days and going 7 times in 6 days?!" Sheng Tianmu yelled in a voice that made Qiuyue feel pain in the eardrums, "Going to Youkou frequently will not only weaken your constitution, but also may cause you to get sick !"

"There is nothing more humiliating to a samurai than to die in bed, and die of that disease!"

"You'd better be more restrained in the future!"

Sheng Tianmu is the first of the "Seven Spears of Xianzhou", and he is also a fierce general with many military exploits.

After the "Tianming Famine" broke out, many bandits and bandits appeared in the Northeast.

As one of the Northeast feudal clans, the Sendai clan was naturally in serious trouble with banditry.

Since the "Tianming Famine" broke out, Sheng Tianmu was named "General of the Bandit Hunting Army" and led the army to hunt bandits everywhere.

Under the onslaught of Yu Sheng Tianmu, the bandits in the Sendai Domain were subdued all the time.

In this series of battles against bandits, Sheng Tianmu array beheaded an unknown number of bandits.

Although the combat achievements of Sheng Tianmu are not worth mentioning compared with those generals in the Warring States Period.

However, in the Edo period, when there was a long period of peace and most of the samurai did not even kill a chicken, Sheng Tianmu was definitely regarded as a military commander with great military exploits.

Sheng Tianmu has both qualifications and strong strength. Facing Sheng Tianmu, Qiuyue Sheng can't afford any idea of ​​confronting him.

"Yes." Qiuyue lowered her head, "I will try to go as little as possible in the future."

After reprimanding Qiuyue for a while, Sheng Tianmu turned his gaze to a young man who was also wearing red and black armor sitting not far away.

"Kuroda! Have you had enough rest? Let's play when you have had enough rest!"

The young man known as "Kuroda" has a slender figure.

After being called by Sheng Tianmu, the young man was taken aback for a moment, then hurriedly raised his hands as a sign of surrender, and said with a wry smile:

"Please let me rest for a while."

The young man's name is Kuroda Xuanyi, and he is also one of the "Seven Spears of Xianzhou".

Before Qiuyue competed with Sheng Tianmu, Kuroda had already been severely drilled by Sheng Tianmu.

This time when troops were dispatched to the north, the lord of the Sendai domain directly sent five people from the "Seven Guns of Xianzhou", headed by Sheng Tianmu, to participate in the battle.

Qiuyue and Kuroda stayed in Songqian City with Sheng Tianmu.

The other two members of "Xianzhou Seven Guns" stayed in the army and sat in the army.

Their Sendai Fan army is located in the wild some distance from Matsumae Castle, and it takes more than a day to go back and forth.

Seeing that Kuroda refused to compete with him any more, Sheng Tianmu curled his lips in displeasure.

"Really, you young people, you are obviously at the best age in your life, don't waste this great time!"

"Exercise more and don't seek too much pleasure!"

"As a warrior, you should concentrate on the cultivation of martial arts. Instead of wasting too much energy and time on women, singing and dancing."

Sheng Tianmu chattered and preached to Qiuyue and Kuroda.

Listening to Shengtianmu's preaching, Qiuyue and Kuroda couldn't help showing helpless wry smiles.

Sheng Tianmu has a place that barbarians dislike.

That is, he likes to preach to young people as an "expert".

More than half of the high-ranking warriors in the Sendai Domain who were able to meet Sheng Tianmu had all been taught by Sheng Tianmu.

Sheng Tianmu's favorite place to criticize young people is nothing more than a few places that dislike young people for not concentrating their energy and time on the improvement of martial arts, and dislike that young people's strength is not as good as that of an old man like him

Every time when Sheng's third eye was there, he would chatter for a long time.

After nagging for a while, Sheng Tianmu turned his gaze to Qiuyue who was at the side.

"Since Kuroda doesn't want to play again, then, Qiuyue, let's fight again."

"No, no." Qiuyue shook her head hastily, "Master Tianmu, I'm also a little tired, please let me rest for a while."

"It seems that you should really exercise your physical strength." Sheng Tianmu said.

Since Qiuyue and Kuroda were unwilling to play again, Sheng Tianmu simply took a break.

Sheng Tianmu and Qiuyue walked to Kuroda's side with their wooden guns, and put the wooden guns aside casually.

A few waiters who stood respectfully not far away hurried forward, and while handing over sweat towels, they helped the two of them take off their armors.

The commoner clothes under the armor of the two have been soaked with sweat.

While wiping the sweat from his body, Sheng Tianmu said to Qiuyue in a much gentler tone than before:

"Qiuyue, although your physical strength is not good, your gun is still somewhat improved compared to before."

"Your gun has now clearly changed from a dojo gun to a battlefield gun."

"As long as you can make up for the lack of physical strength, then the future can be expected."

Hearing Sheng Tianmu's sudden praise, Qiuyue hurriedly said modestly:

"It's all thanks to your practice method, Master Sheng Tianmu, that I can be so fast."

The so-called "practice method of Shengtianmu" is actually wearing armor and fighting fiercely like being on the battlefield.

Sheng Tianmu has a habit, that is, when fighting with others, he only likes to fight with others in armor.

According to Sheng Tianmu, this is to reproduce the feeling of fighting on the battlefield.

Let the body get used to wearing armor all the time.

And the opponents are all wearing armor to compete, because of the protection of the armor, you can also play more fun, and you don't have to worry about hitting too hard and injuring your opponent.

Not only do you wear armor to compete with others, but you also unconsciously develop the habit of attacking places where the enemy's armor cannot defend.

Under the influence of Shengtianmu, Qiuyue also got used to wearing armor to compete with others.

Under the influence of time and time, Qiuyue has now slowly developed the habit of attacking places that cannot be defended by human armor.

This is the reason why Sheng Tianmu praised Qiuyue's gun as a "battlefield gun" just now.

However, after praising Qiuyue, Sheng Tianmu carried out a routine "belittling young people".

"You young people are still too comfortable and slack."

"When I was young, it wasn't as easy as you guys."

Qiuyue and Kuroda had long been accustomed to the nagging of Sheng Tianmu, so they just listened quietly with helplessness.

After nagging for a while, a look of melancholy appeared on Sheng Tianmu's face, and he let out a long sigh.

"The world is really declining now. The warriors are not as good as the previous generation. Among the younger generation of warriors, there are no outstanding heroes."

"Hero" Kuroda was stunned for a moment, his eyes flashed with reminiscence, "There are still such people in the younger generation who are born as heroes."

"When I was still in the northeast, Qiuyue met a man with a very powerful skill in a little-known town called Nishino Town. What's the name of that man? Mashima?"

"Mashima Goro." Qiuyue said.

"That's right, that's right, it's Goro Mashima."

"That Mashima Goro is amazing. He managed to defeat Qiuyue with a wooden sword even though he was a little over a head shorter than Qiuyue."

"Oh?" Sheng Tianmu raised his eyebrows.

This is the first time that Qiuyue was defeated by a samurai with a wooden knife in an unknown small town.

"Qiuyue, tell me in detail." Sheng Tianmu looked at Qiuyue, "How did that samurai named Goro Mashima defeat you with a wooden sword?"

Qiuyue told Sheng Tianmu concisely and concisely the whole process of meeting Ogata by chance at that time, and the whole process of contesting with Ogata.

After Qiuyue finished speaking, Sheng Tianmu nodded lightly:

"Use a knife to knock your gun away, and then get close quickly? If you don't have enough arm strength, you can't use it."

"Yeah." Qiuyue nodded, "That man doesn't look very strong, but his arms are very strong. When he shook my gun away with a knife, my hands were numb."

"I didn't expect such an outstanding young man to appear in the Northeast." Sheng Tianmu muttered in a low voice.

"He doesn't seem to be a native of Northeast China." Qiuyue added, "I asked him if he wanted to come to our Sendai Domain, but he refused. He said he was a wanderer with no fixed place and hadn't come yet. Our Sendai Clan's plans."

"I heard his accent, it seems to be the accent of Kansai."

"Hmph, it seems that among the young people nowadays, there are still some people who can be seen." Sheng Tianmu nodded.

However, as soon as Sheng Tianmu said this sentence, the subject suddenly changed:

"However, these young people who are still worth seeing, why don't one or two go the right way!"

Sheng Tianmu showed an angry expression.

The right way he said was to serve his lord wholeheartedly.

In the eyes of Sheng Tianmu, only warriors who are loyal and brave are the real warriors, and bushido is "the way of loyalty to the emperor".

No matter what, one should not abandon one's own lord regardless of this. This is the point of view that Sheng Tianmu has always believed in, so Sheng Tianmu dislikes those rogues, especially those who live in no fixed place and wander around.

"It's the same with that Ogata Yasushi from Izumo before!" Sheng Tianmu's face was full of displeasure, "No, that Ogata Yasushi is much worse than this Mashima Goro!"

"That Mashima Goro was just a ronin, but Ogata Itsuki killed the lord directly!"

For Sheng Tianmu, who regards "the way of loyalty to the emperor" as his belief, one can imagine what he would think of Ogata who became famous by killing the lord.

At the beginning, after learning about Ogata's killing of the lord, Sheng Tianmu was so angry that he couldn't eat for several days, and kept yelling at Ogata Yishi for being shameless and a shame for a samurai.

Later, when the news of Ogata's attack on Nijo Castle in Kyoto reached the Sendai Domain, Sheng Tianmu's dislike for Ogata increased several levels.

"Speaking of Ogata Itsuki," Kuroda on the side continued, "I heard that even the emperor in Kyoto doesn't want to see Ogata Itsuki."

"At the emperor's request, the shogunate recently had to increase the bounty of Ogata Isze from 500 taels to 800 taels."

"There is a saying that Yishi Kazuogata is destined to leave his name in history."

"To be hated by the emperor's court and the general's shogunate at the same time is unprecedented and unprecedented."

"Throughout the ages, there shouldn't be a second swordsman who can surpass Ogata Itsuki in terms of fame."

"That's right, it is indeed a name left in history, but it will also leave a bad name for thousands of years." Sheng Tianmu said in a deep voice, "People in future generations will always remember the shame of a warrior named Ogata Itsuki during the Kansei period."

"A person like Ogata Yishi should be the leader! Be sure to chop off Ogata Yishi's head! Then let all the vassals circulate his head as a warning to others."

"That's very difficult." Kuroda smiled wryly. "In terms of swordsmanship, Miyamoto Musashi and Sasaki Kojiro, the great swordsmen in history, should not be able to compare with Ogata Yasushi."

"In the case of foot combat, if you use a samurai sword to kill hundreds of people in a row, ask yourself: I can't do it."

As soon as Kuroda finished speaking, Sheng Tianmu snorted heavily and said:

"That Ogata Yishi's swordsmanship is indeed outstanding. If it is a foot battle, I admit that I may not be his opponent."
