Chapter 45 The Origin of Hicun Xintai

Not long after resting, Hiko Seijuro began to arrange for everyone to start training again. This time, Emiya could not escape and joined the training together with Okita Koji.

"Ah, so tired."

Takaki Tono drank a lot of water after finishing training.

Hiko Seijuro's training for them was not just about swinging the sword. After a while, Hiko Seijuro could not help but personally guide them and conduct sparring one by one. He also had time for each disciple to train with each other.

"Thank you, senior brother, for your advice!"

Himura Shinta slowly sheathed the reverse blade and bowed to Emiya in front of him to admit defeat.

Hiko Seijuro was very satisfied with these competitions, especially Shinta. He had only been studying in the dojo for only half a year, and it was already considered very good to be able to master more than twenty moves in Emiya's hands.

In addition, what surprised Hiko Seijuro the most was the competition between Okita Koji and Emiya.

Although the final result of this battle was that Okita Koji was defeated due to lack of physical strength, her unbridled sword skills and several unexpected cuts forced Emiya into a desperate situation.

That's right, this is definitely a genius.

Higu Seijuro laughed.

'Xingsheng, you do have a good daughter. You must have named her Xiaoji, perhaps to bring her closer to the great swordsman Okita Souji.'

After all training ended, it was noon.

Therefore, Tomita and Hashimoto also said goodbye to Koseijuro.

"Master, I'm leaving too."

Tono Takaki packed up his things, and after getting Higurashi's approval, he said goodbye to everyone one by one, and finally said to Emiya next to him: "Senior, I'll leave first. The Kyudo Club has training in the afternoon."

"You're really busy. Remember to get a lot of rest. We have to shoot a movie next week."

"knew."

Emiya watched Takaki Tono leave, then looked at Shinta Himura who was wiping the reverse blade, and suddenly laughed.

"Master, it turns out you secretly forged the reverse blade behind my back."

"The sword is a murderous weapon, and swordsmanship is a killing technique. This is true." Higu Seijuro just said lightly: "This society is moving towards peace, as you said, and swordsmanship does not need to rely on killing people to achieve its goals as usual.

Morality. The reverse blade is suitable for training and protecting yourself and those you love."

"I didn't expect that Master, you would be so enlightened."

"Idiot apprentice, what do you mean by this?!"

Hiko Seijuro glanced sideways, and Emiya immediately withdrew his smile.

Himura Shinta looked at the two of them and smiled from the bottom of his heart.

Judging from spending half a day together today, he still likes this senior brother whom he met for the first time.

At this moment, there were only five people left in the dojo, and the three men were gathered together. Because they were both female swordsmen, Okita Koji pestered Yukishiroba and asked questions.

Unlike Okita Koji, who has a cheerful and cheerful personality, Yukiyoba behaves like Yamato Nadeshiko, who is quiet and reserved.

But it can be seen that Yukiyoba still likes Okita Koji very much, and he will patiently and gently answer some strange questions raised by Koji.

"By the way, Master, I'm a little curious. Did Shinta find the dojo to become a disciple on his own?"

Of course, Emiya is not the curious baby in some anime, who always says "I'm very curious". He just simply wants to know whether it is destined that these people who have a specific connection in the original work will get together.

"Xin Tai ah..."

Speaking of Xintai, Bi Guqing paused for a moment, then slowly told one thing.

Because Emiya did not choose to inherit the Hiten Sword Style, Hiko Seijuro decided to find another disciple to inherit his lifelong skills.

After all, he is not younger than Koseijuro. Although he still looks like a young man in his twenties, his actual age is already on his way to fifty, making him slightly older than Emiya Kiritsugu.

Considering that he had no wife and no children, Hiko Seijuro decided to adopt a child and chose him to inherit his mantle.

"So, Master, the child you chose is Shinta?" Emiya asked doubtfully.

Himura Shinta is already sixteen years old. In China, she would not be eligible for adoption. However, in Japan, there is an adoption relationship between adults, which has many twists and turns.

"I inquired about many age-appropriate people from some friends, and Shinta was among them." Higu Seijuro recalled: "Shinta grew up in an orphanage since he was a child, and later moved out of the orphanage and lived independently. His character

and perseverance are both excellent.

But in fact, at the very beginning, I did not plan to choose Xintai as his successor, because in terms of personality and physical condition, Xintai was not suitable to be a swordsman. Just like his name, Xintai was too weak, and

Swordsman is not a gentle profession."

"Master, you are a little too serious." Emiya said helplessly: "I can find some excuses for my physical condition, but I'm afraid it's a bit unreasonable to exclude others because of their personality and name.

"

"You are the only one who talks a lot!"

Higu Seijuro glared at Emiya.

Himura Shinta smiled helplessly, as if to say that there was nothing I could do.

Higu Seijuro was suddenly interrupted by Emiya. He couldn't think of what to say next. He waited for more than ten seconds before continuing:

"It's strange to say that when I was just looking through the photos, I was planning to give up on Xintai, but when I came to visit one by one, that is, when I met Xintai for the first time, I felt inexplicably that Xintai might be more suitable than others.

Inherit the flying sword style."

"Why?"

Emiya and Himura Shinta both looked at Hikokiyo with great interest.

"How do I know why."

Higu Seijuro shook his head: "It's just a feeling. Swordsman is a profession that pays special attention to intuition, so I decided to give this boy a chance and asked him: "Do you agree that swordsmanship is a killing sword?"

"

"Haha, Master, I guess you don't actually have the answer in your heart, right?"

As soon as Wei Gong finished speaking, a big palm hit his forehead.

"It hurts, it hurts..."

Hiko Seijuro had a strange power, so Emiya was hit on the head with his sword, and his head suddenly felt bigger.

"Stupid apprentice! You are talking more and more nonsense now!"

Hiko Seijuro's brows jumped, and after realizing that Emiya was much more "honest" now, he continued: ""A sword can be a living sword, and swordsmanship can also be a living skill." This is what Shinta told me.

I have not experienced the most glorious era of swordsmanship, so I have no way of judging whether this sentence is right or wrong.

But I also know very well that in this peaceful era, the living sword may be more suitable for the inheritance of swordsmanship, so I accepted Shinta and asked him to be the final successor of the Feitian sword style to verify the validity of this sentence in the future.

and wrong.”

"Master, I feel that people like you would be more troubled if they were born in troubled times." Emiya said with a smile.

"Humph, what does that matter?"

Higu Seijuro stood up and said: "Anyway, I have already chosen the successor of the Hiten sword style, so that I will not cut off the inheritance that has lasted for hundreds of years.
Chapter completed!
