Great Swordsman Ke Xue

Tie Zhuyu was still sobbing quietly intermittently, enduring the pain and reluctantly sitting on the steps.

Because the steps were very cold, her skirt was very thin, and she only wore a pair of white stockings on her lower body. Koji Shimizu dragged her over, and he didn't show any affection and care. If she hadn't struggled to cooperate, she might have been dragged over from the ground.

More than ten minutes have passed, and she still hasn't recovered from the pain. She is curled up and sobbing like a homeless girl. It's hard to avoid feeling a little pitiful.

But Qingshui Koji was unmoved. Although he was puzzled and not disgusted by Tie Zhuyu who suddenly came to him with murderous intent, he was far from feeling pity.

And the girl's muttering as she sobbed just now made him vaguely understand something.

Tie Zhuyu seemed to have an almost pathological desire for power.

She is not like the strong character shown by most people, she longs for her own strength.

The "wuwuwu" cry just now was mixed with inaudible complaints and accusations, just like a little girl who was beaten and cried. Anyway, Shimizu Koji had not seen this kind of crying for a long time.

Tie Zhuyu was mumbling at that time. Of course, Qingshui Koji couldn't hear it completely, but he could probably understand it a little bit.

It seemed that besides her desire for power, she came to him out of unwillingness or jealousy.

Well, from this aspect, it is more in line with her age.

And listening to Tie Zhuyu's words, Qingshui Koji couldn't help but think of the past.

When he was still a world traveler, there was a period of time when he naturally hated the days when he was powerless and could not control his life and death.

He also longs to become stronger, and he wants to resist the fate that will never last until seven days.

In the early days, he also sent out the lamentations of the weak to countless strong people, but only a few times, he received some negligible response.

Koji Shimizu vaguely remembered the most recent one, which was probably as far away as dozens of worlds.

In the flying sand all over the sky, the setting sun gradually sets in the west and is as bright as dissolved gold. The lonely and taciturn wandering swordsman walks alone in the yellow sand road with his sword in hand, moving with the wind.

Therefore, although he didn't know what secret Tie Zhuyu was hiding in his heart, Qingshui Koji could understand part of her state of mind.

After a while, Tie Zhuyu on the side finally recovered a lot.

Under normal circumstances, if her abdomen resisted Koji Shimizu's slash, she would definitely not be able to recover. It was hard to tell whether she was conscious or not.

But as the daughter of the Tie clan, although her mother strictly prohibited her from contacting the sword, she sometimes gave her a piece of soft armor that was close to her body without saying anything.

A treasure from the Warring States Period, said to be made of meteorite iron, as strong as iron and as textured as silk, sparked a bloody battle, and was finally acquired by Tokugawa Ieyasu, the founder of the Shogunate era.

Of course, Tie Zhuyu didn't know the story behind it.

And it was precisely because of the protective clothing and physical fitness that was far superior to ordinary people that she was able to recover at this moment.

But compared to her well-protected body, her wrists were much worse at the moment.

It was almost too painful to move, and even in the dim alley, the deep purple and black bruises were clearly visible.

But for Tie Zhuyu, as long as the pain was not fatal, she could completely endure it with her own willpower.

And if it weren't for the clear division of labor between the two swords of Koji Shimizu at that moment, stabbing her wrist just to make her abandon the sword, and focusing the attack on her abdomen, her wrist would probably have been broken by now.

But this also shows that Koji Shimizu is true - no mercy.

"Maybe I saw it wrong. You are indeed a swordsman. Why don't you kill me?"

Tie Zhuyu relied on his willpower to ignore the pain in his wrist.

Her calm tone seemed to have returned to the independent kendo girl she had been before. The person who was sobbing and crying just now was just another unrelated person.

However, the content of what she said now was completely different.

"This is an era of peace." Koji Shimizu recovered from his memories and replied casually.

Although he doesn't care about killing people, he still has his own rules, otherwise he will become a murderer.

He had just pointed his sword at Tie Zhuyu's head and asked her why she suddenly came to him. Tie Zhuyu's special 'answer' allowed her to save her life.

Qingshui Koji can be sure that Tie Zhuyu is just a girl with extreme thoughts and childish behavior.

His danger rating is: zero.

There was no hatred between them at all, and there was none now. Tie Zhuyu was like the kind of ant that would step on any passing ant.

Although Koji Shimizu was a little unhappy, the lessons he gave him with those two swords were enough for a girl who just had a bad personality and was immature.

Tie Zhuyu couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Qingshui Koji's answer, then he said "ha", laughed self-deprecatingly, lowered his head, and said no more.

She couldn't see through Koji Shimizu. She thought this guy was not like the pedantic guys she had seen before who claimed to be samurai.

Because those people always underestimated her enemies just because she was a girl, and even showed mercy to them. Naturally, they were defeated by her mercilessly.

But in front of her, Koji Shimizu, that sword was clearly going to kill her, so how could she talk about peaceful times now?

But after thinking about it for a moment, she became a little silent.

Yes, swordsmen have already left the stage of history.

It's just that she herself, because of her identity, has never taken the so-called order and the police seriously, and is always used to solving problems with the sharp blade in her hand.

But for most people, kendo has lost its edge.

The real kendo in her heart, until now, the most critical purpose of it has not been accepted and recognized by the public.

"Don't you want to ask why?"

Tie Zhuyu's hands and feet were a little cold. She had been walking for too long with a loneliness that was not understood and accepted, but she herself was never willing to let it go.

And she asked the question out of the blue, and Shimizu Koji didn't know what she was talking about for a while.

Tie Zhuyu didn't seem to want to listen to his answer, and continued to talk on his own: "During the fight with Teidan, you must have known that if we continued to fight, I couldn't win against you at all."

"This time, I knew from the beginning that I had no chance of killing you, but I did draw my sword with the belief that I would kill you."

"Because if I didn't make such a determination, I'm afraid I would be completely defeated without even seeing your true strength."

Qi Shui Haoji was silent for a while. Tie Zhuyu's thoughts on kendo were indeed a bit extreme, but there was nothing wrong with what she said. She had a good eye.

"Kendo has always been born to kill people. I have always adhered to this concept. I want to kill someone with my own hands. That person has a talent that may be more terrible than you."

Tie Zhuyu's face was gloomy. When Qing Shui Haoji heard this, he finally understood a little.

"But I still can't accept that I would lose to someone like you."

"Someone like me?"

Tie Zhuyu's eyes were erratic, and her thoughts were so elusive that it was hard to understand. Her tone dropped again.

Upon hearing this, Shimizu Koji couldn't help but feel puzzled and doubtful.

What happened to him?

Tie Zhuyu didn't act pretentiously like an ordinary girl, and said directly: "Not only are you not focused on kendo at all, but you go to this kind of place to have fun at this age, but you can still become stronger so easily even if you waste your talent like this-"

"Wait--."

"I'm just here to work part-time." Shimizu Koji explained.

But his explanation did not get Tie Zhuyu's understanding, but made the girl frown and her eyes change.

Tie Zhuyu couldn't understand it at all.

"Why do you want to do this? Are you short of money? With your kendo skills, you will have a good income no matter which dojo you go to, and you won't have to worry about finding a job in the future. Why do you still go to this kind of place--."

The reason why kendo in Japan has a high status is that kendo is not only a traditional high-tech and highly ornamental competitive sport.

At the same time, people with strong kendo skills, even if they only graduated from high school, will have a lot of extra points in future employment, and even be a decisive factor.

"I'm just here to work as a pianist part-time. Anyway, it's not what you think."

For such a misunderstanding, Shimizu Koji naturally had to explain.

Tetsu Moroha was stunned for a long time before she recovered. Compared to believing that Shimizu Koji was a scum with only talent, she was more willing to believe what Shimizu Koji said.

Because in this way, her loss was not so unfair.

But at the same time, it also made her more confused.

Because in this way, what did she do tonight.

Is she really too extreme? Or naive?

The cold reprimand from Shimizu Koji before echoed in her ears.

She suddenly felt her cheeks slightly hot.

Silence is Cambridge tonight.

"Smith Marseille."

The apologetic voice was light and sincere.

The night is the last veil of the girl.
