I am practicing in the Nianghua Warring States Period

"Makeup, what's wrong?" Oda Nobuhime took off the mask in her hand and said, "Huh, awesome! Since you won't participate, I'll play Overlord Xiang Yu! What are you going to act... By the way, who's this person next to you?"

Of course she knew Yoshino and Kikyo, so what was going on with this little follower?

Yes, I did let you find a concubine freely. But... you chose such a small one. Does it look 1.4 meters tall? It's so small, it's like an ant fucking an elephant. Wouldn't it be useless?

"Himurai Kenshin." Beidou Xinwei pointed at the girl beside him and said, "My disciple will inherit my legacy in the future."

"Huh!?" All the other samurai leaders present pricked up their ears instantly, and cast their eyes on Kenshin Himura, who had originally had little presence, as if they were looking at a heroine.

What merits and virtues did this woman possess? She was chosen as a personal disciple by the xx-level xx-realm master of XXX Peak, who never accepts disciples!

Could it be a natural sword spirit root?!

These people had seen Beidou Xinwei's swordsmanship before. It could be described in two words: "strange"! So exquisite, so terrifying, even beautiful, yet incredibly bloody. It was completely different from ordinary swordsmanship (yes, that's right).

"Ah? This child..." Oda Nobuhime widened her eyes and asked in disbelief, "Is she that strong? You actually accepted her as your personal disciple? ...I didn't realize how strong she is. Where did you meet her?"

"I picked her up on the road..." Beidou Xinwei then recounted the other person's origins, fully affirmed Himura Kenshin's character, and repeated his promise to tell everyone not to bully his student: "From now on, she is my apprentice, and I am her master. Once a teacher, always a father. Our father-daughter bond is sealed. If she gets into trouble, just blame me. I will be her master for the rest of her life. No matter how she gets into trouble, just say she is my apprentice. Anyone who dares to mess with her must tell me, and I will know it. Those who mess with her will have their skin peeled off and their bones ground, and their souls banished to the underworld, where they will never be able to turn over!"

Everyone: ...Are you so protective of your own shortcomings?

Some more radical people want to ask Beidou Xinwei, you already have a daughter.

Are you still missing a son?

"Well, since you're my disciple, I'm open to you. This rib fork is called 'Jie'. I hope you'll be as loyal and righteous as your master treats you." Oda Nobuhime stood up, looked at it, and randomly found a rib fork from among her clothes. She handed it to Himura Kenshin beside her. "Your master is my most powerful general, and you will be her apprentice from now on. Don't be shy. Come and talk to me if you have any questions. Follow your master's lead and learn from him. He's a master of both civil and military skills."

After handing the rib fork to the stunned boy, Oda Nobuhime turned around and asked Beidou Nobuyuki, "Hey, you, I told you to bring your pipa, did you bring it?"

"I brought it..." Beidou Xinwei was puzzled. Was the boss so concerned about team building? And... "Why are you wearing makeup?"

"That side is playing the Noh music, and this side is performing the Noh play - didn't I tell you a long time ago, the content is "Xiang Yu"." Oda Nobuhime felt that she was fine again and threw the mask aside.

The chuunibyou is about to explode! - And yes, an 18-year-old girl holds the power, and holds a team-building event under reasonable, legal, and even universally praised circumstances - to put it bluntly, isn't this just cosplay?

"Your biwa doesn't look like a Japanese biwa, does it?" Oda Nobuhime took a look and asked in confusion, "People say that your biwa playing is just... just playing?"

Japanese-style pipa is a different kind of pingtan, featuring both singing and playing, often with long, drawn-out narratives. While Chinese pipa is mostly played and sung, pingtan seems to be more popular only in the Wu dialect region... perhaps because women in this region are more suited to soft, melodious singing?

"Yes." Xinwei took the pipa from Kikyo beside him and said, "I don't know how to play the Japanese pipa. This is a Chinese pipa."

"...Oh, it looks a little different. Never mind. Can you play the pipa that has something to do with Xiang Yu?"

"If you want to talk about anything else, I really don't know." There are only a few pieces in "Chinese Pipa Grade Examination..." Can a kitten fish? This one is simple, and Kikyo particularly likes it. "It's about the King of Chu. It's the most famous piece in Chinese Pipa."

"? I'm looking forward to it."

Chapter 57: Rule the World with Just a Few Words

No matter how elegant your art is, you still need to find a soulmate. A soulmate is hard to find, so you have to create a soulmate.

Most people can only listen to the music for fun, so you need to explain to them clearly what each step is about - music needs textual description.

Therefore, when Beidou Xinwei played the songs, they also added some explanations about what these songs meant.

"'Ten Sides of Ambush'" depicts the decisive battle between King Xiang Yu of Chu and Emperor Gaozu of Han at Gaixia. A pipa piece from China – Act I: 600,000 Han troops line up… drums and music play… Han Xin selects his generals… the Han army lines up in neat formation… the Han army marches forward… the Han army splits up and enters an ambush… the Han army ambush – the Overlord appears. A brief battle at Jiming Mountain, a major battle at Jiuli Mountain, Yu Ji's suicide, Xiang Yu's defeat on his black horse, and his suicide at the Wujiang River."

Each section should be explained clearly.

The recorder of "Nobuhime-koki", Ota Ushiichi, as a retainer of Shibata Katsuie, participated in the celebration throughout.

On October 7, 1545, we led our troops to Xuanjin. Itai Daizen of Qingzhou City rebelled...

At that time, Nobuyoshi Nobuyoshi led an army of 110 men and captured two castles in a row. He provided relief to the wounded and disabled, demonstrating the demeanor of a great general, winning the submission of the inhabitants of Matsuba and Fukada. Nobuyoshi Nobuyoshi rushed to Kayatsu, arriving at 8:00 a.m. on October 7th. Unrivaled in bravery, Nobuyoshi Nobuyoshi charged into battle and engaged the enemy general Itai Kansuke. Over a thousand enemy troops were routed. Unable to bear the devastation of the castle town, Nobuyoshi Nobuyoshi proposed the three victorious strategies of "separating soldiers from farmers." These strategies are included in the "Shinkoku Daimyojin Daiichiki."

On October 10, 1545, our army returned to Kiyosu Castle. Shibata Katsuie's troops were escorted into the castle as guest troops. To celebrate the victory, Lord Nobuhime held a large banquet the next day, including a performance of the Noh play "Xiang Yu."

At the banquet, Duke Xin Ji personally portrayed Xiang Yu, much to everyone's delight. It's said that the people of Guye City were filled with admiration at the sight of such a powerful woman. Everyone was delighted with the performance. However, it was Duke Xin Wei's subsequent musical performance that remains unforgettable.

Duke Xinwei was a man of both civil and military talents, possessing a towering physique, striking handsomeness, and a refined character. He was compassionate to his soldiers while also respecting his enemies. Among musical instruments, he was particularly adept at playing the pipa, inspiring and captivating those who heard it, possessing a magical power.

At this banquet, he performed an ancient pipa piece he had learned from the Ming Dynasty, titled "Ten Sides of Ambush." ​​It tells the story of Xiang Yu's siege at Gaixia. The entire town of Nakono Castle was utterly silent, and only the sound of Nobuyoshi's pipa, like celestial music, filled the castle grounds for a long time. From then on, Nakono Castle became a hub for the exchange of Chinese pipa, and it remains so to this day. The "Taishō Imperial Palace Playing Room" where Nobuyoshi sat still exists.

Xin Weigong also explained the meaning of this piece to us, and I still remember every word in his voice: "The first scene is the battle of the camps, with 600,000 Han soldiers marching out to Gaixia..."

I later learned this Chinese piece, but I didn't learn it well. The score is recorded here: ...

Ota Ushiichi was a historian during the Warring States period. Because the samurai class dominated all cultural affairs, any casual record made by these samurai with leisure time would essentially become firsthand historical material. Whether this is true or not is beyond question, at least it's difficult to find historical records.

Later, when the official history is revised, his records will be used as a blueprint for re-creation, picking out the parts that everyone likes. The parts that are not liked will be regarded as unofficial history.

But regardless, Beidou Xinwei's performance that night also added a few buffs. There's no way around it; that light-up point isn't a player's normal routine. △○ lit up, and it felt awkward not to click on it. After clicking on it, the entire population of Gunye City was strengthened.

I was full of energy that night and didn't sleep all night! — This has given a boost to the population cause.

--------------

Little girl, get up early in the morning, pull up your pants and go to the toilet!

Kenshin Himura rubbed his eyes and got up. Everything seemed so unreal.

A mere slave the day before, she had endured life-or-death struggles and the bitter end of separation. Just two days had passed, and she was already living in the most exclusive castle town of samurai. She had become the disciple of the supposedly strongest samurai. Everything seemed like a dream, unreal.

When I woke up in the morning, there were comfortable bedding, two amiable sisters, and incredible delicious food.

There is also a half-naked beautiful young master.

“……? Master… Master?!” The girl looked at her master, who was one year younger than her, in disbelief. He started practicing martial arts with his upper body naked so early.

"Oh, you're here." Beidou Xinwei looked at the beautiful girl in front of him and always felt that something seemed strange.

look carefully.

Throughout the Warring States Period in Japan, everyone had black hair. The only difference was the girl in front of him, whose hair was fiery red! However, no one around her made any sense of this, and they didn't even think the color red was strange at all!

Why is this? Is this the heroine's aura?

Putting down the gold and silver-decorated Tang Dynasty broadsword in his hand, Beidou Xinwei looked at the red-haired girl in front of him.

"Are you up early?"

"Yes, Master!" He bowed nervously and respectfully, as if he was not very comfortable with his identity as a disciple.

It doesn't matter. As a teacher, I teach and educate people. This is not the first time! Do you remember Saber's famous words before she died?

Don't worry, even I know how to educate children.

"Well, very good. I have a way of teaching and educating people." Beidou Xinwei looked at the girl in front of him, showing that he was a professional! "But to be honest, this is my first time teaching swordsmanship. So..."

So I'll teach you high school Chinese, English, politics, and history. A little chemistry and physics, and some math that requires careful preparation, I really don't have much trouble with. I'm even more comfortable with the liberal arts. After all, you'll end up in the service industry anyway. There's no chance someone big will come back to me and accuse me of misleading students.

But how should this sword technique be taught?

Well, let me think about it and combine it with the lesson plan. First come up with...

[Ding, it is detected that the owner has doubts.

Awakening (Education System) Lv.10 (450/550)...

Awakening Skills: 1. Never Tire of Learning - Keep your students motivated to learn. Applicable to 1 person, CD: 1 day, Duration: 1 x level number of days.

5,……

10——Unlocked Skill: Rule the world with half of "Lun Yu"! 】

Chapter 58: Was all my previous learning in vain?

Wait! Don't show me your so-called skills in a field I'm familiar with!

Doesn't this mean my original teaching quality was a mess? Without the right skills, I couldn't possibly teach a decent student! It's like I've ruined countless flowers of our country and misled countless children over the past decade! ... It was clearly me and all the other teachers who did this, so why is it like I'm the only one who ruined things? I... I deserve to die.

"...Kenshin, let me ask you something. Can you read?"

"Yes, I know some." Himura Kenshin nodded and answered timidly, "But, probably not many."

Shit, I almost forgot, they have surnames! Isn't that the samurai class? Isn't it normal for them to be able to read?

"Then, let me teach you the Analects."

"Teacher, I've learned it." Kenshin immediately displayed the cultivation of a child from the medieval Japanese samurai class: "A few years after I was enlightened, my father taught me the Analects of Confucius. I can recite it..."

Shit, I almost forgot that the education system in ancient East Asia was basically the same, because the textbooks were the same.

"My Analects is different. The Japanese Analects, after all, had to be translated. My translation... hmm." Beidou Xinwei honestly didn't believe what he said. "Half of it is enough to rule the whole world. To learn my martial arts, naturally, you must first learn the secrets of the martial arts."

"Oh!" Kenshin's eyes were filled with innocent stars: "Master, please teach me!"

"Yeah." Beidou Xinwei nodded.

After graduating from high school, he was a junior high school teacher. After three years of working without any problems, he was promoted to an intermediate teacher. After another four years, he was promoted to a senior teacher. The special teacher is the principal. It's no wonder he doesn't deserve the surname Zhao. But as the top child king, he already knew how to educate children!

"Here, this book is for you." Beidou Xinwei tossed the "Lunyu" book, which he had exchanged with the system, to the other party without even glancing at it. "Study it carefully and understand it thoroughly after you finish. Read the book through ten times first, and then come back to ask me if you have any questions."

Yes, all a real teacher does is pass out the books, read aloud, hand out the exams, and have the students work on them. Then they copy the answers, mark the bull's eye on the answers, look down on the noobs who can't do the questions, and explain the exams. In fact, they can't even do some of the questions themselves, and sometimes some students can solve them faster than they can copy the answers themselves! — At this point, they're about to graduate, so they're not afraid at all.

"Huh?!" The young girl Kenshin held the secret book in her hand as if it were a treasure for about a second, and then she thought... "Master? Is this book wrong? How can this be the Analects? Isn't this the Lunyu? You must have given it to me by mistake."

"Next time, don't question anything your teacher does!" I wouldn't dare to talk to my students like this in the future, and I would also encourage my children's dialectical thinking!

But this is an evil feudal society!

There are not many tall buildings in this world, so I should not be afraid of a slap and the other person getting upset and falling from the building!

"This book is called 'Lun Yu'. This is the first time you've questioned me, and I hope it's the last time." Beidou Xinwei sighed and touched the other's red hair, which felt really good. "Kenshin, you must trust your master. Memorize every word in this book and then burn it. This is the secret of our swordsmanship school!"

"Oh!" Kenshin Himura was suddenly moved. He didn't expect his master to treat him like this... He actually questioned him!

So the future sword saint girl was actually PUA-ed into having to execute the orders if she understood, and to strengthen her understanding while executing the orders if she didn't understand.

"Yes, Master! -- I also want to ask, what is the name of our school?"

"Oh, didn't I tell you? Um..." What's the name of the genre? Um... Oh, right. I just saw it in the system mall a few days ago. There's a really nice ultimate move that I haven't redeemed yet.

"Our sect is called Feitian Yujianliu."

"...?!"

The young girl Kenshin left with great joy.

Let’s not talk about how the young swordsman was PUA-ed in the future, and this sword-fighting school from the Warring States period did not receive the baptism of the information explosion in the future.

The average person of that era was exposed to no more than a page of newspaper in their lifetime. Intellectuals were also exposed to no more than a newspaper, with most of their information coming from reading materials. It's nothing like the way ordinary people in later generations are bombarded with information tens of thousands of times a day. Opening their phones can instantly put them in a state of emotional control, and they can spend the entire day looking at cats!

Kenjutsu schools of this era were generally stuck in the realms of "Hokushin Ittoryu," "Something Nitoryu," or "XX Rishin-pai." Most were named after their founders, lacking much aura or substance. There were names like "Hozoin-ryu Spearmanship" and "Shochi-ryu Spearmanship," and even the specific purpose of their school was documented. The names of their moves were even simpler: left horizontal cut, right horizontal cut, top-down cut, bottom-up cut. They were like "Kasaya Slash" and "Reverse Kasaya Slash."

Beidou Xinwei plagiarized the "Feitian Yujianliu" in my memory, and it is really a groundbreaking naming method in the Middle Ages.

Pretending to the extreme.

Of course, these are just pretense.

A red-haired beauty, as delicate and frail as Lin Daiyu, held Beidou Xinwei's "Secret Book" in her hands. Her hands were trembling as she began to read it. She opened the first page:

It says, "The Master said: Once you have learned a killing skill, you can often go into battle and practice with the enemy's heads. Isn't that a joy?"

Isn’t it a joy to have friends coming from afar with news of war?

Others don't understand me, but I managed not to kill his entire family. Am I not a gentleman enough?

"...?" The girl's hands trembled, shaking even more violently. What is this? I seem to have seen it before, but I also seem not to have seen it before?

"What is this?" The girl wanted to ask Beidou Xinwei what these things were. But then she remembered the stupid question she had asked not long ago. No, questioning the master was wrong... at least not now.

Memorize this book first.

------------------

Everyone gradually learned that Beidou Xinwei was accepting disciples.

Such a sturdy man actually accepted a little girl like Karami as his apprentice. The person opposite him is only about 1.3 or 1.4 meters tall, right? I'm a full 1.5 meters tall, why didn't he accept me?

Everyone was very dissatisfied, but considering that Beidou Xinwei once said in front of everyone, "Whoever dares to cause trouble for my disciple, I will skin him alive and pull out his tendons," no one dared to cause trouble for Himura Kenshin.

On the contrary, the entire Naguno Castle fell into a state of confusion: I don’t dare to find Beidou Xinwei, but do I dare not ask Kenshin Himura for help?
