roofbeam

On-Yomi: リョウ

Koohii stories:

1) [mantixen] 16-10-2008(50): What seemed to be water dripping from the wooden roofbeam was actually drops of blood dripping from a sword lodged in it.

2) [astridtops] 21-4-2007(10): He cut down the tree with a sword to make a new roofbeam, but when he saw two drops lying on the tree, he assumed there was too much water in the wood and he left it to dry first.

3) [chibimizuno] 12-7-2009(8): A while back, I was goofing around with my sword when I accidentally lodged it in the roofbeam. Apparently, I also poked a couple of holes in the roof because whenever it rains, some water drips onto the floor - one drop from each side of the sword. So that's why there is a tree growing on the floor now. :/.

4) [timcampbell] 8-12-2008(2): Water is pouring in through the roofbeams. You stick a blade in, and the flow subsides to just a couple of drops..

5) [koohiikun] 1-7-2010(1): Water is used to clean the 2 drops of sap off the sword that cut the tree for the roofbeam. Pretty stupid carpenter if you ask me.
