"Izayo-kun, don't you drink alcohol?"

"If you don't drink, what's so good about drinking, and in this era, food is scarce, and the poor can't even afford to eat, but the rich can spend a lot of time drinking. This is the so-called Zhumen's wine and meat stinks, and the bones are frozen to death."

"Is this poem...Bai Juyi's?"

Kou Ziqing took a sip of tea and almost choked into the trachea, he coughed and said:

"It's Du Fu's..."

Kikyo blushed and lowered her head as if feeling very embarrassed. Kou Ziqing would not laugh at Kikyo's Zhang Guan Li Dai, but felt that Bai Juyi's name in Japan is bigger than Du Fu. Think about Genji and another dragonfly diary. Bai Juyi's poems are probably due to the fact that Bai Juyi's poems are so sophisticated that even the neighbor's grandmother can understand them.

"Jiao Jiao, do you know Bai Juyi too? Then you can recite the song of eternal regret?"

Kou Ziqing asked curiously, Kikyo shook his head and said:

"will not."

"Then let me recite it to you."

Kou Ziqing became so popular with poetry that he really started to recite it, shaking his head and reciting this famous poem through the ages. Reciting poems is considered to be a very elegant and even noble thing in ancient times.

"...Natural beauty is hard to give up, once chosen by the king's side. Looking back and smiling, Baimeisheng, the six palaces are colorless... I wish to be a lovebird in the sky, and a twig in the earth. Forever and ever, this hatred will never end. Expect."

Kou Ziqing recited it heartily and even lost himself. Kikyo listened carefully. Her Chinese level is not very high, but she understood this song of eternal regret, and felt the love tragedy between Tang Xuanzong and Yang Guifei. Some lines are too beautiful , so that the platycodon is savored carefully.

"Nice poem!"

Not long after Kou Ziqing finished his words, he heard the sound of applause. A man in a long robe walked over and applauded. Kou Ziqing saw at a glance that this was a high-status warrior.

Although the Tsukidai head looks ugly, it is a kind of fashion among warriors, because in the battle, the hair is often scattered due to various reasons. At this time, the hair in the middle and front of the head will cover the face, block the line of sight, and affect the fighting.So some warriors shaved off the hair in the middle and front of the head, so that even if the hair was scattered during the battle, it would only be scattered on the sides and back of the head without affecting the vision.Because of its obvious effect, the samurai followed suit one after another, and it became an unwritten tradition over time, but this kind of haircut was only limited to the samurai class.

"you are?"

Kou Ziqing lost hope and couldn't judge the identity of this warrior immediately, so the warrior said:

"My name is Kuisawa Zuomenwei. I am a hereditary warrior under the city lord. May I ask your honorable name?"

Heize deliberately greeted Kou Ziqing in Chinese, but his accent was too blunt. Kou Ziqing replied in fluent Chinese:

"Sixteen nights, Qing."

Kou Ziqing didn’t say anything about being expensive, and felt that it was too strange to use this Japanese name, but his fluent Chinese made Kurosawa overjoyed. Since Tang Yi, for people in the upper class of the island country, Being able to read Chinese characters can be regarded as a symbol of culture. This is not something that ordinary people have the energy and time to learn.

"Mr. Sixteen Nights, did you recite Bai Letian's Song of Everlasting Regret just now? I learned it before, but I still can't recite it. I'm really ashamed."

"Bai Letian?"

Kou Ziqing was stunned for a moment and then realized that it was Bai Juyi. It has to be said that Bai Juyi's status in the Japanese cultural circle is too high, which makes poets and poets eclipsed. There are various reasons for this.

"The Song of Everlasting Regret is not difficult, and reciting it in one breath will make people feel at ease."

"Yes, Bai Letian's poems are so beautiful. Every time I feel pain in martial arts, I always feel comforted when reading "Bai's Anthology"."

Kou Ziqing was a little surprised that Kurosawa was clearly a warrior, but he yearned so much for a literati. The guard at the left gate of Kurosawa said:

"Izayo-kun, are you from Musashi Kingdom? I don't know which noble queen it is?"

"Well, I'm alone now, and I don't have a family."

Kou Ziqing used the surname Shizaya, of course, because of the relationship with Inuyasha's mother, but also to borrow some names so that he can better integrate into it in this Warring States era, as if Liu Bei and others introduced themselves with the name of King Zhongshan. Hanging on his head, this name has contributed a lot to his achievement of supremacy.

Kurosawa couldn't help being stunned, and soon "if he realized something" now the birth of the 66 countries in the world, I don't know how many former lord daimyos have lost everything because of this, there are too many who have Miao characters but no power, Kurosawa Not to look down upon, on the contrary, the world generally sympathizes with these lost Miao aristocrats, many of these people are talented, not comparable to ordinary people, so lords and daimyo are also willing to recruit them.

"Izayoi-kun, do you have any idea of ​​becoming an official? My castellan is a branch of Lord Uesugi and has always been thirsty for talents."

"..."

Kou Ziqing was really stunned, and he was considered a talent to be recruited after reciting a poem?Or is the so-called Miao noble name so easy to use?In fact, if you think about it, you can understand, not to mention civilians, even if there are many upper-level warriors, how many people can recite the song of eternal regret?Maybe a middle school student can do it in the modern world, but in Japan, the knowledge content of people in the Warring States Period cannot be compared with that of later generations.

Kou Ziqing shook his head and said:

"Kurosawa-kun, you are being polite. I have no intention of becoming an official for the time being. I want to practice with my teacher now."

"teacher?"

"Yes, this is Teacher Kikyo, I want to learn from her the means of subjugating demons."

Kurosawa seemed to have noticed Kikyo just now, and was immediately amazed by her beauty, and soon he had a new reaction:

"Is it possible that Kikyo is the priestess who shot and killed Fuma with an arrow in our Musashi Kingdom?"

"Yes."

Kurosawazaemon hurriedly straightened his clothes, bowed very politely and said:

"It turned out to be Miss Kikyo, I was really rude just now, please forgive me."

It is incredible that a privileged samurai should salute a commoner woman, but the shrine maiden herself represents the child of God who communicates with the gods.In this Warring States era where demons and ghosts haunted, powerful witches, samurai, and onmyojis are all worthy of daimyo's respect. It is not a joke for a powerful maiden like Kikyo to suppress a country by one person, if it is not because of Ise Jingu's cultivation The identity of the person is detached, the Lord of Musashi, who has a height of 67 stones, is afraid that he will want to visit the thatched cottage.

Kikyo didn't feel strange because she was ignored, she stood up and bowed slightly in return:

"Master Kurosawa is being too polite, Kikyo is just a commoner, please don't be like that."

Kurosawa was about to say something, when suddenly some chaotic voices came from outside the window, which attracted the attention of Kou Ziqing and Kikyo.

Chapter 10 Things Are Not Simple

The people on the street who were doing their own things seemed to be attracted by something and gathered together. It seemed that there was something worth watching. Kou Ziqing's eyes fell on the middle of the crowd, but the men in samurai uniforms were facing each other, their eyes full of murder. meaning.
