Unparalleled Double Harmony

Chapter 372
It's still morning, Chuanpengzhuang.

On the north side of the atrium of this hot spring hotel, there is the largest room in the hotel.

This room is only used for banquets and not for accommodation on weekdays, so this is also the most elegantly decorated place in the whole store.

The wooden walls and even the ceiling are carefully painted with a layer of warm-colored paint. There are ornaments such as masks, fans, calligraphy and paintings on the walls, and the gorgeous screens and inner doors are painted with cranes, pine and bamboos. An expensive vase.

Even the tatami mats and cushions that are spread on the floor are often replaced with new ones, and each piece has a faint fragrance.

At this moment, in this room, seven people are already seated.

These seven are none other than the seven main suspects in the "Kuranosuke Taketa Killing Incident" - Miyamoto Musashi, Tokumaru, Sun Yixie, Huang Donglai, Keijiro, Yoshiwara and Yukino.

Of course, it is said to be "sitting", but it is not accurate, because two of them are lying down, and you will know who they are without telling me.

Anyway, they are not embarrassed, it is others who are embarrassed.

"Damn it...why hasn't this Xionggu come here? I was forced to come here because my feet hurt so much, and then he didn't show up and let me wait?" Sun Yixie was paralyzed there for a while, and then started complain.

"Your name is Mao? Didn't I and Keijiro help you here? I still have a stomachache." Huang Donglai was lying not far from him. Although he was unwell, he still choked on the words.

"Why? You can't scream? Besides, your legs are fine. If you want to run away, you can go to the toilet. Who stopped you?" Sun Yixie put on a rascal face and pushed back.

"What the fuck? I've been running from yesterday afternoon to midnight, not to mention it's watery, even the juice is gone." Huang Donglai said again, "I don't want to have diarrhea now, but my stomach is still hurting. What can I do?"

Ladies and gentlemen, they are lying down, but the five people who share the same room with them are all sitting like human beings, and there is a small table in front of them, and there are hot tea and snacks on the table .

Originally, the five people drank tea and ate cakes, and by the way, enjoyed the cherry blossoms in the courtyard through the open Japanese-style sliding doors and listened to the sound of bowl water hitting bamboo.

However, Shuangxie's chatting in these few sentences is like drying the clothes under the flowers, burning the piano and cooking the cranes, washing the feet in the clear spring, and shit on the kang... After listening to what they said, who can eat?Can you enjoy the scenery?

Within three seconds, the other five people silently put down the dim sum cups in their hands, and a three-point unknown fire arose in their hearts.

"Uh..." After a while, Keijiro spoke again.

Firstly, his character is more bold and unrestrained, so he doesn't mind breaking the awkward atmosphere by himself; secondly... Shuangxie is with him after all, and he also gets involved when he is embarrassed, so he wants to After thinking about it, let's take control of the situation.

"I said... everyone..." Keijiro smiled, glanced at the four strangers in the room, and said, "It's rare for everyone to get together here, so why don't you get to know each other?"

His voice fell to the ground, but no one responded for a while.

Just when the atmosphere was about to become more awkward, Miyamoto Musashi still gave him face: "Your Excellency Keijiro, I think everyone in this room should know you."

What he said is true. In those days, because there were no photos, and the media basically relied on their mouths, it was easier for a "stranger" like Keijiro, who is known for his weird appearance, words and deeds, than a great swordsman like Miyamoto Musashi. To be recognizable.

"Really? Hahaha... that's not bad." Keijiro borrowed the donkey from the slope, looked at Musashi and continued, "I wonder if you are?"

"I'm Miyamoto Musashi." Musashi replied in a calm tone.

But once his name was announced, the expressions of the other people in the room changed...

The shadow of the famous tree, whether it is Tokumaru, Keijiro, or the two monks, have more or less heard of Musashi's deeds. When he named him, his reaction was obviously bigger than that of a public man like Kumagai.

Even Sun and Huang sat up suddenly, and said in unison: "What? You are Miyamoto Musashi?"

Obviously, even these two goods had heard of this name in the world before time travel.

Musashi was taken aback by these two guys, and thought to himself at the time: "These two guys have been half-dead since just now, why are they so excited when they hear my name... Could it be that they have a grudge against me? Or want to challenge me?"

Musashi will have such an idea, no doubt created by his experience.

Musashi in this universe is a relatively pure warrior. He doesn't have much interest in becoming an official and fame and fortune. What he pursues... is "Unparalleled Under Heaven".

Therefore, since he was a teenager, Musashi's life has basically been spent in challenging others and being challenged by others, which has made him countless enemies and attracted many potential challengers.

But...the reason for Shuangxie to sit up in shock at this moment is definitely not what Musashi thought, they were just simply surprised-this guy is Miyamoto Musashi?That's it?

Here we have to say something else. In the history we are familiar with, the height of the ancient Japanese was quite short. It is normal for adults to be around 1.5 meters, and there are not many 1.4 meters. But in our book, It must not be done this way, because if it is done this way, the 1.7-meter-high double harmonics are two eye-catching giants in Dongying. The average height of a person is about 1.6 meters, and then a warrior like Keijiro walks up to 1.7 meters.

So what happened to Miyamoto Musashi?

He is still 1.6 meters... Although his body is quite muscular, his face is rough, and there are many scars on his body that look scary, but overall, compared to those martial arts masters in the Central Plains, he is more powerful both physically and internally. , nothing extraordinary.

Sun Yixie had also met a Japanese swordsman in the past, that is, the ronin Terashima Kohei who was beheaded by Lin Yuancheng. In comparison, he felt that although Musashi was much better than Terashima, he might not be able to win against those in the Central Plains. First-class master, if the Musashi of this universe is considered "peerless" in Japan like the one in the history he knows, then the overall strength of the Dongying martial arts may be a bit weak.

"Hmph...so that's how it is..." Two seconds later, Shuangxie didn't answer, but Tokumaru, who was sitting on the left of Musashi, became excited, "No wonder I felt an invisible pressure when I entered this room. Is it the aura exuded by a battle-hardened swordsman?"

"Heh..." As soon as these words came out, Yigen, who was sitting in the other corner of the room, immediately sneered.

His laughter is not aimed at Musashi, but at Tokumaru, which means: You will feel invisible pressure, not because of Musashi, but because of me, but you can't see Taishan with your eyes. Wrong object of fear.

"Excuse me, is your Excellency..." Seeing Tokumaru talk to Musashi, he asked neither humble nor overbearing.

"I am Tokumaru, the second-generation descendant of the 'Water Flow' boxing." Tokumaru raised his head and chest, and replied seriously, "Your Excellency, please remember this well, this will be a martial art that will resound throughout Japan in the future. name."

"Hahaha..." As soon as these words came out, Yigen simply laughed out loud in a mocking manner.

"What's so funny?" Tokumaru heard Yoshigeno's sneer just now, but ignored it, this time the other party laughed so loudly that he finally couldn't help it.

"Young man, being too self-confident is sometimes not a good thing." Yigen replied in a very social tone, "Do you know how many unknown boxers like you I have seen in the past, and learned a few tricks like a three-legged cat? Kung fu, I thought I could make a name for myself in the martial arts world, but in the end I couldn't even challenge a single opponent, so I was beaten to death and maimed..."

"Who do you say is a three-legged cat?" Tokumaru said angrily, "I can't pretend that I didn't hear that!"

"The boxing method has been handed down for two generations, do you still want to pretend to be a famous boxing school?" Yi Gen immediately asked again.

"The 'Water Flow' boxing method is a branch of the 'Ryukyu Hands', and the origin of the 'Ryukyu Hands' is Chinese boxing. If you really want to talk about its origin, it may be longer than the history of your Yixiang sect." Tokumaru continued, "Furthermore, the strength of a boxing technique cannot only be judged by the length of its inheritance, but mainly depends on the person who uses the martial arts... just like my master realized his own 'water flow' from the 'Ryukyu Hands' Similarly, when this boxing technique was passed on to me, it transformed again because of me... I call this boxing technique that belongs to me 'Karate', and in my opinion...Karate is the strongest martial art in the world study!"

"Ha! Haha, hahaha..." This time, he smiled.

They didn't do it for anything else, just because what Tokumaru said, the first half of the paragraph really made some sense, but the confident speech at the end was too funny, combined with Tokumaru's weak strength and serious Chinese The second tone is even more difficult to stretch.

The two of them laughed so hard that they fell back down again, bent over for a while and got up again, and then lay down again... If it is said that Yoshigen's ridicule just now did 2 damage to Tokumaru's spirit, then this wave of "sit-ups" by Shuangxiong At least 8 points to start.

"What are you two laughing at?" Tokumaru has been a bit annoyed with these two shit-mouthed guys since he couldn't have tea, and now that the other party is like this, he will no longer be polite.

"Haha...haha..." Sun Yixie smiled slowly, and replied while lying on his side, "Brother Tokumaru, according to what you said, except for your karate, the rest of us here Martial arts... are all rubbish?"

His act of grabbing someone's lines and making a fuss by the way is casual, because Tokumaru thinks it's really funny to him, so he also wants to make a joke with the other party.

Unexpectedly, Tokumaru was really on top, and he replied at that time: "So what..."

bang——

In the next second, Tokumaru hadn't finished speaking, there was a ground-thumping sound in the room, followed by... Xing Gen's huge body leaped up, diagonally passing through the wide room In the room, the naginata in his hand slashed towards Tokumaru without any hesitation.

At this moment, Kumagai, who was hiding in the upstairs room and peeking down through the peephole designated by the shopkeeper, was completely dumbfounded.

Kumagai gathered these seven suspects here under the pretext of "need to discuss with you." He originally wanted to observe secretly to see who would show his feet in the conversation; unexpectedly, these "martial arts practitioners" sat down Together, we didn't mention a word about the murder case, we just chatted for less than 5 minutes and then started performing martial arts.

But look at it this way... When Xiong Gu was negotiating with the two monks and soldiers earlier, that Xing Gen didn't attack him directly, but just stood up as if he was about to strike, which was considered very restrained.

huh-huh-

when--

It was too late to say it, but before Xing Gen's offensive landed, two more figures moved.

But seeing Keijiro's vermilion spear and Musashi's tachi coming from the left and right respectively, the two weapons happened to intersect in mid-air to block Xinggen's blow.

It's just... After receiving the knife, Keijiro and Musashi were both pushed back a little by the force of the knife.

Although the two of them shot hastily, and fortunately they applied force together from top to bottom with the acceleration of gravity and body weight, while Keijiro and Musashi were both "side-to-side and upward", which was a disadvantage, but fortunately's strange force still made them feel secretly startled.

"Hey, hey...even if this little brother speaks wild words, he doesn't have to kill people right away?" Keijiro's tone seemed relaxed, but he was a little guilty in his heart, because in a real fight, he still had to think about his two A companion paralyzed on the ground.

"That's right, there is still an unsolved murder case in the hotel, if you kill Lord Tokumaru again..." Musashi also wanted to persuade him to make peace.

"Hey! Who do you think will be killed?" Unexpectedly, Tokumaru jumped up when he heard these two sentences, "I didn't ask for your help, are you looking down on me? Like that kind of simple attack, I just need to use 'Empty hand into the white blade' and I can easily..."

"I'm into your brother!" At this moment, Sun Yixie, who was lying on the ground, suddenly shouted violently, and used a style of "Rolling Hongchen" in the dragon dog boxing method. Relying on the strength of his waist and abdomen, he rolled and shrunk to the ground, and quickly approached Tokumaru, and then he grabbed Tokumaru's ankles with both hands, and pulled them back.

Under the sneak attack of Xiasanlu, Tokumaru immediately fell face down on the tatami, and was about to fall to the ground. Fortunately, his reaction was not slow, and he quickly stretched out his hands to support him. Its strong arms supported the body.

But when Tokumaru was about to adjust his posture to fight back, and asked Sun Yixie why he attacked him, Huang Donglai, who was still lying on the ground a second ago, followed Sun Ge's actions this second... Huang Donglai just flicked his fingers. He jumped up, flew a distance of three meters, and "ridden" down on Tokumaru's back.

It has to be said that Tokumaru's body was not in vain. He persisted even though his feet were grabbed and someone was pressed on his back... When his face was about to hit the ground, his body was bent With enough arms to withstand it, he did a push-up, and once again propped up his body together with Huang Donglai on his back.

"What do you... want to do?" After a breath, Tokumaru gritted his teeth and squeezed out a sentence.

"First, we want you to shut up and stop talking nonsense." Huang Donglai, who was on Tokumaru's back, said in a relaxed tone.

"Secondly, I want to let you know in the simplest way that karate is not the strongest martial art in the world." Sun Yixie continued.

The three of them are entangled here, and the weapon battle on the other side has not stopped.

It was just now, although Keijiro and Musashi tried to persuade him with kind words, but Na Xinggen was indifferent to their words, his violent state was not restrained at all, he raised the naginata in his hand and kept slashing towards him.

You can tell how powerful Xing Gen's move is, but it's not. He just uses his body's rotation and small jumps to make rounds and slashes. This movement is not so much martial arts as it is dance. ...But because of Xinggen's large size and greater monster power, combined with the long weapon such as the naginata in the indoor environment, Keijiro and Musashi had no chance to fight back.

At this time, Yigen sat peacefully in his original position, picked up the teacup again, and sipped the tea leisurely, as if the chaos going on in this room had nothing to do with him.

Seeing this, Xiong Gu upstairs couldn't help but thought: "This monk is really ruthless, it seems that he doesn't mind killing the people in the same room at all, and he is not afraid of the consequences...He didn't let Xing Gen do anything to me before, I'm afraid it's just because of my official status, and because I don't think I'm a threat to him. If he really offends him, he might even dare to... Eh? Wait, so, can these two monks be ruled out instead? Suspected?"

Kumagai was right. Because Yoshigen had nothing to do with Takeda's death, Yoshigen didn't take it seriously when Kumagai came to question him in the morning; With such a character, it is very likely that Kumagai will be killed, and even everyone in the hotel will be killed.

Dangdang——————

The sound of the collision of weapons was endless, and it was also mixed with the sound of the walls, tatami mats, and furniture decoration being smashed in the house.

"Hey! You bastard, since you don't listen to persuasion, let's go out and fight!" Keijiro fought in the room for a while, and saw that the monk soldier did not spare a shot against the person who persuaded him, and his anger was also blown out. So, he grabbed a gap, jumped out of the open door, jumped into the atrium of the hotel, and yelled at Xing Gen.

When Xing Gen heard this, he roared like a wild beast, and chased it out.

Suddenly, these two warriors wielding long weapons fought alone in the courtyard where the cherry blossoms were falling and the water was gurgling.

It's true...

In the midst of the cold spring, the two shadows slashed their swords and spears.

Between three tricks and five moves, half a catty can see eight or two.

After coming to the open place outside the house and playing for a few rounds freely, Keijiro understood in his heart: the opponent's strength is very close to his own.

Keijiro's moves are much more subtle than Xinggen's, and his speed and strength are more balanced. In terms of "martial arts", he obviously has an advantage; Xinggen is known for his strange power. This strength is combined with his long naginata and large-scale movements. , well made up for his shortcomings of slow speed and simple moves, making him unlikely to lose in a short time.

So if the two of them can't get a result, what about the people in the house?

All the judges can guess this... Facing Sun Huang's combination of physical skills, monsters can't stand it, let alone human beings.

Even if Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai are not in the best condition due to physical reasons, it is still easy to clean up a Tokumaru, and the latter is subdued by their "sleep skills" in a short time.

At the same time, on the side near the door of the room, Musashi walked up to Yoshigen slowly, and said in a deep voice, "Aren't you going to stop your companion?"

"Heh..." Yigen sneered, and continued, "That man named Xionggu wanted to give his superiors an 'account', so he gathered all the people he thought were suspicious here, wanting to see the show , then in my opinion... we might as well satisfy him, for example... kill a person, and then hand him over as the real culprit, so that the rest of us can get away and go our separate ways, isn't that good? "

When Yigen said this, he paused, glanced at the three people in the room, then looked at the courtyard, and continued with a smile: "As for the one who died was this little brother named Tokumaru, or That Keijiro outside is not important, is it? As long as we survived with the same caliber..."

There is something strange about his words - Xing Gen is the one who strikes suddenly, and Xing Gen is the one who kills without hesitation. Yi Gen has never told Xing Gen what to do, but it seems that what the latter did It was what he had in mind.

"Fart!" Hearing this, Sun Yixie let go of Tokumaru, "Why don't you die?"

Two seconds later, Huang Donglai also let go of Tokumaru, turned to Yigen and said, "That's right, I think you two monks are the most like murderers in this room."

And Tokumaru, who was let go by the two of them, also looked confused at the moment, and couldn't tell whether Sun Huang was a good guy or a bad guy.

"You want me to die?" The other half, Yi Gen, showed disdain. He looked at the few people in the room and said arrogantly, "Heh... just a few of you, do you have the ability?"

It seems that this Ajafang Yoshigen has a very high self-esteem. Even if he faces the world-famous Miyamoto Musashi and the other three warriors, he doesn't think he will lose at all.

"Damn it! Are you dancing?" Sun Yixie raised his voice, "Let me tell you, if it wasn't for my feet hurting today, like you..."

scold--

Brother Sun's long swearing has just started, and Musashi over there has already made a move.

The Taidao in Musashi's right hand let out a sharp whistling, and cut an arc in mid-air, the afterimage of the sword did not disappear, and the blade's edge had already reached Yoshigen's forehead.

Seeing this move, Yigen's expression became serious, and he immediately picked up the Zen staff that was at hand, and just blocked Musashi's slashing attack with a distance of one centimeter above his head.

Of course!
In the next second, there was only a sound of "呵——", and Yigen's carotid artery let out a mournful cry that it could only perform once in a lifetime.

Amidst the sound, a mist of blood gushed out from Yigen's right neck.

Yigen's eyes widened in shock, and after realizing it, his eyes slowly moved down, and finally settled on Musashi's left hand.

At this moment, Musashi's left hand was holding the handle of another unsheathed katana around his waist.

At this moment, in this room, apart from Musashi himself, only Sun Huang and Sun Huang understood clearly when Musashi made a move - just now Musashi's right hand downward slash was just a false move, his real killing move was an Iaihe horizontal slash with his left hand Kodachi.

This saber was as fast as lightning, from unsheathing to unsheathing, it took only an instant, Yigen didn't even notice it because he reacted.

He also paid the price with his life for this.

"It seems... I have the ability." Musashi finished cutting Yoshigen, and then withdrew the knife indifferently, leaving such a sentence.

As soon as the words fell to the ground, Yigen's hand holding the Zen staff dropped powerlessly, and his head also tilted to the side that was chopped off.

The strange thing is that at the same time that Yi Gen died, Xing Gen outside the house also rolled his eyes, and fell to the ground as if he had fallen apart...
