"Guangzhong!" Liu Quan blurted out, looking at him with concern, "...... Are you alright?"

The candlestick cut Guangzhong looked down at his body, and then at his own body knife, which was still held in the hand of the female inquisitor, and showed a wry smile.

"Ah...... For some reason, it suddenly became ...... Well, that kind of thing caused the object that should have been guarded by himself to escape...... This kind of performance is not handsome. ”

In fact, if Fu Fushen suddenly transforms into a body knife, there is only one possibility-that is, the God Inquisitor has withdrawn his spiritual power out of active or passive action. However, the candlestick did not mention this reason considerately, but said such things as if he was going to take responsibility for himself, which made Liu Quan feel even more uncomfortable.

"No...... It's all my problem. She whispered, "Because of my lack of spiritual power, this is the result......"

When the candlestick was heard, there was a glimmer of light in the left eye that was exposed. His gaze slid over the huge burden that the Divine Inquisitor was carrying on her back—and the hilts of the knives that sat side by side behind her shoulders and exposed the baggage—and then quickly raised his eyes to look at the Three Sun Moon Sect who was standing beside Liu Quan, his gaze deepened for a moment, and he quickly returned to his usual calm and ignorant posture to look at the female Divine Inquisitor in front of him.

"Well, it's good that there's still a chance to report back to you about what happened. He said in the same gentle tone that Honmaru had mediated everything, and his left eye fell calmly on Yanagiquan's face, and he had no intention of peeking into her expression, but only looked at her politely.

"In my opinion...... After the incident, Miss Kanna looked stunned and then quickly realized that this was a good opportunity to escape, and although her hands were firmly tied, she still managed to step on my ...... Uh, the blade, rubbed on the ground little by little to pull the blade out of its sheath, and then carefully sharpened the rope that bound her hands on the blade. ”

Although he was recounting the events that had embarrassed him a little, the tone of the candlestick Kiritsu Tadashi was calm, and there was no wavering emotion in his magnetic voice, and even because Saito was concerned that Saito might hear inexplicable details from the narrative that were different from those of this era, all the details that were easy to arouse Saito's suspicions were blurred.

Speaking of which, just now, when Liu Quan used his spiritual power to re-awaken the mourning god of the candlestick to cut Guangzhong, he also checked Saitoichi's situation in advance - at that time, he was sitting under the tree with his back against the trunk, and he fell into another round of semi-coma because of his injuries, and his mind was indeed not very clear. Under this premise, Liu Quan was relieved to summon the candlestick to cut the light loyalty.

Now that the candlestick had a cautious look, Yanagizumi once again turned his gaze to Saitoichi, who was sitting under the tree.

It looked like he was still moving with his eyes closed, as if adjusting his uncomfortable sitting position.

So Liu Quan knew that he couldn't ask too much detail next, so as not to make Saito suspicious for the rest of his life.

However, it is not possible to ask at all, after all, if Shen Wurinyin does not go back - all the swords she brought out Fu Fu Fu Shen fell because of her, and then were purged here by Fu Fu Fu God under Liu Quan's command, she can't explain this matter to the government of the time, and it is also a possible choice to not dare to go back in desperation, but to find a place to hide here - if Liu Quan at least has to report to the government of time. So she asked vaguely, "And after that, Miss Kanna left alone?"

The candlestick cuts the head of the loya.

Liu Quan asked again, "So in which direction did she flee?

The candlestick Cheguang Zhong sighed and replied vaguely, "...... At that time, there was really no chance to see clearly...... So—"

Liu Quan sighed, nodded, and no longer asked, but smiled at the candlestick as if soothingly.

"Forget it. ...... The whereabouts of Miss Kanna are not the highest goal we must focus on right now. She said.

"We must now put ...... as soon as possible Yamaguchi-kun," she said, glancing at Saitoichi, who was leaning against the tree, before turning her gaze to look into the distance. "Send it back to Aizu Castle. ”

The candlestick Kiritsu Tadashi replied, as if he had no intention of questioning her orders, and neatly took his main knife from her hand, inserted it back into his waist, and then bent down, said "rude" to Saito, and grabbed his arm and helped him up as if he were half-forced.

Perhaps it was the movement of his feet that touched one of his wounds, Saito's brow furrowed sharply, and a pained expression appeared on his face, but he didn't say a word, but after almost standing up straight, he staggered towards the candlestick and bowed slightly.

The candlestick cut Guangzhong was very crisp, bowed slightly, and suddenly straightened his back again in a flash-before Liu Quan could see how he moved, she was already stunned to find that the candlestick cut Guangzhong carried the seriously injured Saito on his back, and calmly looked at her with a surprised face, and explained softly: "In this case, we don't have to force him to walk quickly when he is already seriously injured, and we will move faster." ...... Don't worry, even if it's a person on my back, it won't affect anything; ”

Willow Spring: "Oh, oh—"

Three days and moon sect near: "Ahaha, very good, very good." ”

He didn't seem to have any opinion on the candlestick Che Guangzhong taking over his task on the initiative. But then his eyes flashed, and he stretched out a hand towards Liu Quan.

Liu Quan: "Uh...... W-What ......?"

She subconsciously took a step back.

However, compared to the face of her as if she was facing a great enemy, the Three Days Moon Sect looked very calm and calm. He even smiled at her and said calmly, "Leave the sword you are carrying on your back to me? After all, we still need you to clear the way for us, do we?"

Liu Quan blackened for a moment, silently untied the burden wrapped in the sword on his back, and handed it over to the hands of the Three Days Moon Zongjin.

"I don't like weak words like 'I'm sorry, I'm too incompetent,' but I do have some responsibility for today's events. She whispered.

Hearing this, the Three Days Moon Sect raised his eyebrows slightly as if he was a little surprised.

"Oh~?!, so what are you going to ...... Apologize, or do you want to make amends for us?" he asked rhetorically with interest.

He always seems to have a natural ability to make people black in a second.

At least Liu Quan now felt that the corners of his forehead were not only black lines, but also green tendons.

"Say...... What are you talking about! It's not to apologize! It's not to make amends!" she angrily denied the two possibilities proposed by the Three Moons Sect, and just as she wanted to continue to say, "This is a deep self-reflection!", she heard him smile again.

“...... In that case, what are you hesitating about?"

Liu Quan: "...... Huh?!"

The Three Days Moon Sect leaned the burden in his hand on his back, glanced at her leisurely, and then took a step down the mountain.

"Just keep going. He said.

"That's what you have to do. ”

Willow Springs: !!

Ah, this is a little white and black...... Why do you always say such things at the worst possible time?

But now is not the time to be moved. It's not a time to try to clarify the complex emotions that are surging in your heart after hearing these words.

Holding on to the hilt of his sword, which was already stained with blood and dust at his waist, Liu Quan sprang through the rugged wilderness and fields.

The soldiers of the so-called "Changfu Newspaper Team" who finally crossed the Kanegawa River chased after them. There were also times when the fellows were close to catching up with them, and bullets from the muzzles of the enemy soldiers whizzed past them, and Ryuzumi had to leave the avenue with Mikazuki and the candlestick and jump into the fields beside them, and run in a zigzag pattern to avoid the danger of being shot.

However, the enemies that poured up seemed endless. As the dawn gradually stained the sky, the darkness of the night finally faded from the top of the world, revealing to Willow Spring, in addition to the vast expanses of mottled fields and wilderness, the dense and annoying ant colonies that emerged from afar—the new government army.

And, that's not all.

They were joined by artillery fire that had become fierce again.

The bullet whizzed through her side and hit the ground not far in front of or behind her, sending out puffs of dust and rubble.

Finally, in the distance, at the end of her vision, the scarred walls of Aizu Castle seemed to leap out and flood into her eyes.

The mortal body, already very tired from the long runs and non-stop fighting, was suddenly stimulated by this exhilarating discovery. Liu Quan shouted, "It's coming soon! Come on, everyone—"

The end continued, but as if she had been violently twisted by an invisible hand, her voice disappeared suddenly.

Almost at the same time, the Three Days Moon Sect, who was running two steps behind her, blurted out in an almost stern tone and a heavily suppressed voice, "...... Snow Leaves!!"
