The tide of weaving, the first moment.Sawara Castle, castle tower.After Sawara Munega came back from his trance, he just calmed his breath a little and quickly stood up.This lord of the Sawara Domain, who was over fifty years old, was obviously much higher in internal cultivation than Keijiro, so he, like Sun Huang, did not suffer from a short-term lack of oxygen after entering the tide of the Tsui.But when he looked out at the sky outside through the castle tower's terrace and then looked down at Sawara beneath his feet, he frowned in disbelief.After a while, Sawara Soga, who had stabilized his emotions, turned around and prepared to leave the terrace first, and return to the castle to ask the others before making a decision.He took a few steps to a sliding door and opened it, behind which was a staircase that turned to the left.Sawara Munei stepped down and walked into the castle tower.As a result, he was halfway down the stairs when he saw a man sitting in the middle of the area on the side of the castle tower where the portraits and armor of his ancestors were displayed.You must know that this place is usually only accessible to the most noble people in the Sawara clan, and even the wife of the feudal lord and the underage heir are not allowed to set foot in it, and the appearance of this person undoubtedly surprised and offended Sawara Soi."
Who are you?
Why here?
”Sawara Soga strode closer to each other from behind; Of course, after all, he is not Sun Yihuan, and he will not sneak attack from behind before questioning, but shouting and asking when he is several meters away, revealing his position.Hearing this, the sitting person slowly turned half of his face and glanced at Sawara Sect: "Who are you?"
”"Presumptuous!"
At this time, Sawara Sect and I had already come to the other party's back only two meters away, and replied sharply, "I am Sawara Sect, the lord of Sawara Domain, and I am the master of this Sawara Castle!"
”As he spoke, his hand resting on the hilt of the katana at his waist, "You man of unknown origin, sitting in the place where the Osahara's clan worships the armor and portraits of their ancestors, dare to ask me who I am?"
I advise you to report the past quickly, otherwise don't blame my men for being ruthless. ”However, after a breath, the other party was not only not frightened by his words and momentum, but also read lightly: "Are you too......"
"Huh?
”Sawara Sect was stunned for a moment, "What are you talking about?"
Can't understand people?
”"No......
It's you who don't understand. ”As he spoke, the man stood up.He was also a samurai with a sword at his waist, wearing a kimono of a similar color to the clothes worn by Soga, and it was only when he stood up straight that Sawara realized that this man was a full head taller than himself, and at first glance he looked like a practitioner.Generally speaking, when you see a person with this figure and dress get up and can't tell whether the other party is friend or foe, you should be somewhat precautionary.But Sawara didn't flinch or make too much of a move because of the other party's stand-up, he just stood there very calmly, staring at the other party, as if he could calmly deal with whatever the other party did."
My name......
Yasuharu Sawara. ”As Sahara Yasuji spoke, he turned his tall body, revealing a face that was also in his fifties, "Come to think of it, I am one of the 'ancestors' in your mouth." ”As he finished saying this, his front also appeared in front of Sawara Sect in its entirety, and at this time, Sawara Sect also saw clearly, the other party's clothes were the same as his own, and the family crest of the Sawara clan was embroidered next to the placket on the front."
You're not a little bold...... but Sawara Munega wasn't swayed by the other party's words and clothes, "Do you think you can bluff me by stealing a piece of clothing and putting it on, and then saying such a bizarre argument?"
There is also a limit to joking. ”"Don't say you can't believe it, even if it's me......
It was only after seeing some evidence that I guessed that this was the 'Hereafter'. ”Yasuharu Sahara also seemed to expect that the other party would not believe him easily, so when he said this, he raised his hand and pointed behind him, "Look......
Who is the portrait that I was sitting there looking at?
”As he finished speaking, Sahara Mune's gaze had zoomed slightly, and he looked over the other side to the painting hanging on the wall not far behind.But after looking at it for two seconds, Sawara Sect just replied, "So what?
Can you fool me by sitting there, seeing the name on the portrait, and then claiming to be the person in the painting?
”It's normal for him to have this reaction, after all, the portrait painting style of that year is generally not very reminiscent, and even if you want to restore it, it is far from the accuracy of the photo, so this portrait really doesn't prove anything."
Hmm......
It seems that there is only one other way to convince you. ”Yasuji Sahara said, slowly raising his hand and reaching for his waist.Sawara Sect and I are still very calm: "Hmph......
This is long overdue. ”Suddenly, two blades appeared.The positions where Sawara Some and Sawara Yasuji were standing had already swapped places after this momentary exchange.However, no one was injured in the staggered encounter.Both of them understood before making a move that this was not a life-and-death fight, but a temptation similar to a greeting between swordsmen.And after this temptation, Sawara Sect also confirmed two facts: first, his opponent used the same family swordsmanship as him, and he was extremely proficient; Second, the katana in the other party's hand is also the same as the one he used, that is, the famous sword "Shoumori" that has been passed down from generation to generation in the Sawara clan and should only exist in the world.Thinking that there is a fast-reacting watchman, he has already thought of it, yes, this "ritual guard" is the weapon that was originally placed on the empty knife rack that Sun Yihe and Keijiro saw in the dark pavilion of the study before.On weekdays, the head of the Sawara clan never wears this famous sword all the time, and they only bring it during the "sacrifice"."
Can you accept it now?"
When Yasuharu Sahara asked this question, he was already putting away the knife.On the other side, Sahara Sect and I not only put away my weapons, but also immediately turned around, sat down respectfully, leaned over and bowed my head, and said, "Ancestor, please forgive the descendants for being rude." ”Considering the existence of the "gods", the vision that was happening at this time, and the ironclad evidence in front of him, Sawara Soga quickly reversed his mind and accepted the reality."
Hurry up."
Sawara Yasuji also immediately turned around and helped Soga, and showed a slight smile, "To be honest, my mood is a little complicated right now......
As an ancestor, he has been surpassed by his descendants so much in swordsmanship......"
What he said at this moment undoubtedly told us the result of the confrontation between the two of them just now.Although it was a test of both parties, the superiority was still divided, and both parties understood it......
The gap is huge.Of course, it's not that Sawara Yasuharu is weak, it's just that Sawara is too strong.If Sawara Sect is not the lord of Sawara, but a swordsman who has traveled all over the world, if he does not practice the unpretentious battlefield swordsmanship of the Sawara family, but has the guidance of a famous teacher......
With his talent, the achievements he can achieve will most likely not be inferior to those famous "Sword Masters" in history.However, these are just assumptions, in reality: he is only a "Sawara Sword Saint" after all, and he can't go to the stage of "the world"."
The ancestor praised it falsely, and I ...... my descendants" Zonghe heard Anji's praise, but he didn't have any smugness or joy, but said ashamedly, "Alas......
It's because I spent too much time on kendo when I was young.,So after taking over the responsibility of the feudal lord from my father.,I feel powerless everywhere.,Although I've been exhausted all these years.,But I still watched Sawara fall into a situation where he could be attacked at any time......"
Ah......
Sure enough, is this also the situation over there......"
An Zhi heard this, and answered weakly."
Ancestor, when you say 'also', it means......
"Soga seems to have realized something."
You said that you have been the head of the family for many years, so you must have read those family heirlooms a long time ago."
An Zhi continued, "So, you should also have some impression of the era in which I lived?"
”Maybe if a different ancestor appeared here, I can't really think of anything for a while, but this Sawara Yasuji......
In other words, he must have an impression of the "Bunji period" in which Anji lived, because it was the era when the so-called "Tsui Tide" took place in the family records."
Ancestor, could it be ......," Zongme said, looking out the window, "......

This is the 'Tide of Silk'?
”"Oh?
Is that what the later generations called this phenomenon?
”But at this moment, Sawara Yasuji seems to have just learned this word, "So......
Did you also offer something like 'Fragments of the Heavenly Cloud Sword' in your own time?
”"No, I ......," Some recalled for a moment, "I think the situation on my side should have nothing to do with that, but because an outsider broke in and destroyed the sacrifice. ”"Is that so......"
An Zhi groaned, and then fell back into deep thought."
However, I did offer a treasure about a month ago and made a deal with the gods."
Some quickly added new information."
Oh?
So after you donated the treasure, nothing abnormal happened, and the transaction was smooth and successful?
”Yasuji seemed a little surprised by this."
Yes."
Zong I replied, "What I offer is a treasure obtained from the Central Plains, called Qi Longbi. ”"Hmm......"
An Zhi said thoughtfully, "Is there really a problem with what I offered......"
"Ancestor, could it be that the fragment of the Heavenly Cloud Sword you offered was a fake, so it angered the gods?"
”ZongI had already had my own speculation about this matter in the literature, and I happened to take this opportunity to ask."
No, what I'm offering is definitely the real thing."
But Anji's answer was, "But because of this, things make it a little difficult for me to accept......"
"The descendants are stupid and don't understand what the ancestors meant." ”Soga motioned for the other party to continue explaining."
When I made a deal with the gods, he asked me to find a 'treasure of the world' and give it, but he didn't specify what it was, so I guess you received the same request......"
Well, that's good."
Soga nodded.An Zhi continued: "After some research, I offered the most valuable thing I had gotten, that is, the 'fragment of the Heavenly Cloud Sword', but after I presented this treasure, the god seemed to be hurt, and his body suddenly reacted violently, and showed clear hostility, which immediately triggered this phenomenon in front of him......"
Speaking of this, his expression became a little subtle: "Zongme, you must have heard the legend of the three artifacts, according to legend, the Tiancong Cloud Sword was born in the body of the Yaqi Great Snake, that is, It symbolizes the power of our indigenous Japanese gods......" he paused, "something that would be repelled and attacked by other local gods......
What exactly?
Is 'it' really a god?
