The storm in Kinai has little to do with Kira Yoshitomo. In the past month or so since Yasuo's health, he has devoted himself to spiritual practice every day, coupled with a reasonable diet, he has grown taller, and he has become very tall with sufficient nutritional supplements. Soon, children like Shima Sakon and Honda Miya, who had no concept of taboos about eating meat, also took advantage of it. Watanabe Gengoro was dragged into the water out of loyalty, and was privately called an offensive and defensive alliance. Although the three children did not understand Kira Yoshi What are you talking about, but I think it¡¯s awesome. "Mr. Master! Pay attention to the coordination of your steps and swing of the sword! Adjust your breath, hold your breath, and breathe out explosively. Don't mess up the rhythm!" Nakajo Tokihide temporarily tutored Kira Yoshitoki in swordsmanship training. The swordsmanship of Nakajo style comes from actual combat lethality. He has a very strong mind flow, and the steps for learning his swordsmanship are already planned. "Drink!" Kira Yoshi adjusts his breathing and moves his strength with his wrists to strike out. Each repeated movement is slightly different. From the beginning when he couldn't grasp the rhythm to now, in the past month, he has gradually become accustomed to every swing. The basic requirements of the time, and even subconsciously regard this requirement as a habit. Nakajo Tokihide observed for a while, decisively stopped the explosive training, and said to him: "The original intention of training is to strengthen the body and nourish the energy. The training of explosive power is to allow the master of the gym to master the explosive skills skillfully. Normal training cannot explode all the time. Frequent explosions will make The loss of vitality damaged the foundation. "Ah? Then I practiced for a month" Ji Liangyi was dumbfounded, then why did you ask me to practice for a month. Nakajo Tokihide quickly comforted him: "The master's current level of cultivation does not matter. The burst training of half an hour twice a day is only part of it. The secret method passed down in my family is to meditate and meditate when the morning sun rises, which can calm the mind and nourish the energy. , the meditation of Linji sect will not leave any hidden dangers to the owner. "Oh! Isn't meditation the yoga technique taught by Buddhism? The five hearts are directed towards the sky, calming down and gradually eliminating distracting thoughts. Samadhi, where the mind is not distracted and focused on one thing." Having practiced Zen since childhood, he naturally understands the allusion to this. Samadhi is also called Samadhi, which is a transliteration of Sanskrit, and the free translation is "positive concentration", which calms the mind and eliminates distracting thoughts. cease. The original intention of yoga is to use meditation, meditation and ascetic practices to bring the mind into a state where it is not stained or pure, and the heart is as clear as glass. This is roughly the same as the practice of Zen. There is no difference between birth and death. Therefore, the original mind of all sentient beings is originally a Buddha. It is not a false cultivation. It is not gradual. It is not light and dark. It is not light because it is ignorant. It is not dark so there is no darkness. Therefore, there is no ignorance. There is no end to ignorance. The following is an allusion from the "Maha Prajna Paramita Heart Sutra". There is no ignorance and no end of ignorance, and there is no old age and death, no end of old age and death, no accumulation and annihilation of suffering, no wisdom and no gain. Because there is no gain, Bodhisattva ˆÊ. Kira Yoshitsune's level of Zen practice was only average. He continued to practice sitting meditation every day for five or six years. He never thought there was anything special about it. Only when Nakajo Tokihide mentioned it did he realize that there was such a thing. The thing is, "I always thought yoga was for losing weight, but I didn't know it could calm the mind and nourish the energy." A day's practice lasts until about three o'clock in the afternoon, and the lunch break is compressed to half an hour. It was so hard, and what was even worse than him was that the three children could only hide in the shade of a tree and take a nap. When they heard the words that today's practice was over, they immediately cheered and ran away. "Your Highness! Try Ah Ju's new pastry!" Ah Ju was holding a plate of strange pastries. She didn't know what new pastry she was working on. The pastries looked a bit strange, a bit like biscuits and a bit like mung bean cakes. Smell the aroma a little. It was tangy to the nose. Kiragi hesitated for a moment and asked, "Is this the smell of osmanthus?" "Yes! This is a rice cake made from this year's newly produced osmanthus honey! Is it delicious?" Ah Ju looked expectantly. He could tell at a glance that she was giving the highest praise when looking forward to Kiragi. Although there was no suspense about the result every time, she always looked forward to the next time happily. Kira Yoshishi picked up a piece of rice cake made with osmanthus honey, swallowed it in one gulp, and then said with an expression of enjoyment on his face: "Is this Aju's secret osmanthus cake! I have never tasted such delicious osmanthus cake! It's so delicious!" "Really? Is that so? A'Ju is still cooking a lot, please take your time, Your Highness!" A'Ju clenched her fists happily and pushed the plate towards him. , almost causing Yoshitoki Kira to fall over. Aju took out a letter from somewhere, "Ah! By the way! Aju also has a letter from His Highness here! It seems to be sent from a very far away place!" "A very far away place? When did you send it?" When Kira Yoshitoki looked at the letter, it only contained the words "Kira Saheibeiden personally". It was obviously not a letter written to him by a retainer of the Kira family. He could be called his official. Not many people. Aju thought for a while and said: "It was probably sent in early July!" "Uh thenWhy are you giving it to me now? oh! I was in the middle of a war at that time, but you could have given it to me last month! " A Ju said with an apologetic look: "I was busy with things last month and forgot about it. Your Highness, I'm sorry! Is it something important? Does it matter? " "I'll read it first before talking Hey, it's a letter from Echigo! "Kirara Yoshitoki was surprised to receive a letter from Echigo. The letter was actually written to him by Nagao Kagetora, and was delivered by the royal merchant of the Nagao family in Echigo, because the mud seal on it was from the Nagao family. As a person who has been exposed to "Seeing and Hearing the Family Patterns" since childhood, recognizing family patterns is as easy as eating and drinking. He wrote a personal letter to Nagao Kagetora a year ago. Because the journey back and forth was very inconvenient in the remoteness of Echigo, he was busy and forgot about it after a while when he encountered other things. This time, the sight of the nine obsidian pattern reminded him of it. It seemed that it should be Nagao Kagetora. When I opened the letter, I saw Nagao Kagetora's regular handwriting on the paper, "His Royal Highness Kira Saheizuo, I am very happy to receive this letter from General Muwei. The world is changing and people are troubled. For example, the morning dew is fleeting. Hearing the words of General Wuwei was like a revelation. The chaos in Echigo was caused by the reversal of superiority and inferiority. The people of the country were at a loss what to do. Jinghu followed General Wuwei's strategy and ended his relationship with Xuanqing Palace. As His Highness said, he crossed the line. The people of the country have put out the war At this time, the imperial court has failed and the shogunate is in decline. The people of the country have become angry, causing our samurai family to lose its direction. However, the samurai should strictly abide by the law and work hard to serve the public. The word "non-violation" should always be engraved in the heart. Although the words of General Wuwei are There is nothing wrong, but it is necessary to invade other countries and seize people's territory. Kagetora does not agree with this, please ask His Highness Kira Sahei to clear up his doubts? " Kira Yoshitoki looked at it and probably knew what he meant. He was just living a pedantic life guarding his own family's territory. I'm afraid he wouldn't even think about abolishing the guardianship. Kira Yoshitoki sighed softly and took out a pen and paper. Shu wrote a reply and sent it to Echigo. Seeing that he didn't speak for a long time, Aju asked worriedly: "Your Highness! Aju didn't ruin your affairs, right? " "Nothing! Aju did a great job! Thank you Aju. "Ji Liangyi smiled with relief, and then remembered that the naughty little loli was supposed to celebrate her birthday in the next few days, and then said to her: "Come with me to celebrate Sheng Ji's birthday in a few days! The sweet-scented osmanthus cake made by Aju is delicious. Let¡¯s give it to Shengji to try it that day! " "Um! Aju is still improving the way of making new rice cakes! Ah Ju has tasted several kinds of honey, and it seems that only osmanthus honey is the best. The next step is to put some oil in it and try it. In the evening, Ah Ju will bring the newly made rice cakes to His Highness to try! "Aju ran away with a warm smile on her face, taking brisk steps, leaving the plate of rice cakes in a daze. "Those two over there, come here! right! Just you, come here! "Ji Liangyi immediately hooked up his hands, called the two silly little guys over, pointed to the sweet-scented osmanthus cake on the plate and said: "I have no appetite now. I gave these cakes to you, so I'll eat them up now. " "Follow your orders! "The two young people devoured it excitedly, praising in a low voice while eating, as if it was really delicious. "Is it really delicious? Why do I feel that sweet and greasy things are not delicious at all? "The next few days were uneventful, and there was no new progress in Izumi's drama for the time being. Hosokawa Fujitaka, Matsui Yukan and others were busy planning the Rakushi Order, taking the Rokkaku family's Kannonji New Market and studying it over and over again. Half a year later, he sent people to Sakamoto Castle Town to investigate and visit. He didn't know when this law would be issued. The routine art of war training was changed to a heavier wooden sword basic chopping. With his physical strength, he could only maintain his breathing rhythm for three days. Ten times, I couldn¡¯t even sustain twenty times of slashing. I continued practicing like this all morning, and then I saw Yamamoto Tokiyuki coming out of nowhere. ¡°Kashima Sword Master Tsukahara Fuden is coming to Luo again. , I had the honor to follow Tsukahara Buden to travel to the Western Kingdom and Kyushu for several years, and I was able to pass on the secrets of the new swordsmanship. Unfortunately, my body was too dilapidated to be used However, I can introduce His Highness Tokihide on my behalf. I wonder what His Highness Tokihide's opinion is? " "Thank you, Your Highness Yamamoto! Naturally, I can¡¯t wait for Shixiu! Speaking of which, my swordsmanship has recently reached a bottleneck and cannot be broken through. If I can get the guidance of Kashima Sword Master, I will definitely be able to make a breakthrough! "Nakajo Tokihide was so excited that he almost jumped up. Tsukahara Fuden is the world's best military strategist. He is known as the Kashima Sword Master. Among the many samurai who use swords in Japan, he is the best swordsman. He would beg for advice. How could he give up if the opportunity didn¡¯t come? ¡°Master! " "oh? What do you have to give me, the master of the hall? " "And me? And me? "Ji Liangyi looked at him with wide eyes. "Huh? What? Yamamoto Tokiyuki glanced at him doubtfully, frowned and said, "Does the owner want to increase the dosage?" Swordsmanship must be practiced step by step and not too impatiently.The surgery has been stopped for more than half a year, and now I can only take my time! " "All right! I see! Kira Yoshi suddenly wilted. The old man sincerely refused to let him get involved, so he would definitely be in trouble. "I'm not going to be a sword master. Do I really care about the Kashima sword master?" snort! "
