Chapter Forty-Nine: Gao Hehui
The world is shaking!
The Imperial Family, the Shogunate, the daimyos, and even the invincible Westerners were completely stunned by what was happening in Kyoto. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
They had never seen such a terrible sight.
For these ruling classes, it was hell.
Because the world is always in the hands of the people of the world, they are just relying on deception and intimidation to manage on their behalf.
Like a shepherd's dog, not because of the strength of the dog, but because of the meekness of the sheep.
But the docile sheep suddenly awakens, and the dog can only humbly clamp its tail.
Not only the top level in China, but also the Westerners. They are strong ships and guns, but they have traveled thousands of miles across the ocean to this eastern island country, even if they shoot out the cannonballs, how many people can they kill?
They're just as bluffing, but they're just more advanced.
Want to completely annex the land?
Unless the main force is transferred from the mainland, and then the real knife and gun are fought.
But even if they win, what's the use of them asking for this scorched earth?
The fall of the nation is never due to the strength of the enemy, the cause of all this is only its own weakness!
If you fall behind, you will be beaten, and the truth is also!
But once the people are awakened, they can no longer be defeated.
The name Yingluo appeared in front of various forces, and even her deeds were praised all over the country.
Suppress?
Wooing?
Each side has its own ideas.
But the characters who gave the bigwigs a headache are now sleeping quietly.
Yingluo was lying on the bed, the wounds on her body had been treated, and she was neatly bandaged. Her eyes were closed, her eyelashes were long, and she trembled slightly with her breath.
A seven-year-old girl lay in front of the bed, staring at her closely, with curiosity, admiration, and a little refusal to admit defeat.
"It's not much older than me. She said to herself: "When I reach the same age as you, I will definitely be even more powerful than you!"
"Knock knock!" there was a knock on the door.
Sojiro Seta said outside the door, "Sister Megumi, it's time to eat!"
"Oh, here it is!" The girl known as Sister Megumi opened the door, but didn't mean to let Sojiro in, just took the plate. There wasn't much food in it, a serving of rice, a few turnips, and the only thing that was commendable was a small, lean fish.
But Hui showed a little surprise, and quickly endured it, still looking arrogant, and said lukewarmly: "There is still meat to eat, which is very good." ”
Sojiro smiled bitterly, three days have passed since the killing of Fukuhara Echigo, and the people of Kyoto have been unprecedentedly united and have begun to spontaneously help the survivors of the fire. They build new houses on the ruins, and although they have to work hard every day, even for children like Sojiro, everyone smiles from the bottom of their hearts.
But there is nothing perfect in the world, and they also face many obstacles.
The most basic is the food that wraps the belly, which is probably just to sustain life at a minimum standard.
The world is not good, and this is the limit of the people.
Sojiro was helping out in the kitchen, and he went to great lengths to keep this little fish in order to please this sister who was always cold, but now it seems that the other party doesn't seem to buy it.
He rubbed his hands together and said with a smile, "That...... Sister Hui, can I go in and see Sister Yingluo?"
"No!" Megumi replied without hesitation.
Sojiro was anxious, and his voice was a little louder: "Why, I know she needs to rest, but why can't she even take a look?"
Hui Leng snorted and said disdainfully: "Because you are very dirty, you will bring in something called bacteria." Sister Yingluo, she is covered with wounds, if she is accidentally infected, will you bear the consequences?"
I'm dirty?
Sojiro looked at his hands, he worked in the kitchen, and he didn't know how many times a day he had to wash his hands, how could they be dirty!
And bacteria, what is that, I've never heard of it!
He looked at Hui up and down with a suspicious look: "I don't read much, and I don't know much about learning, don't you come up with these nonsense to deceive me, right?"
"Hmph, what an ignorant little ghost!" Megumi first put the plate in his hand on the table, then turned back and said to Sojiro arrogantly: "These are all advanced medical skills from Westerners, and of course they are not understandable to ordinary people. If you are obedient, I will return you a lively Yingluo in a few days, but if you dare to trespass and kill someone, don't say that I am not good at medicine. ”
Sojiro's face was swollen and red, but it was a pity that he was a complete layman in terms of medical skills, and he couldn't even think of a rebuttal. He was ashamed and angry for a while, and finally could only say nonsense: "Hmph, Westerners are all bad guys, and their medical skills are definitely not a good thing! Don't you feel ashamed to use their methods?"
"Ashamed?" Hui Leng snorted and said categorically: "As a doctor, you should be ashamed if you can't save people! My Gaohe family has been practicing medicine for generations, and their reputation is outside, and they are even more accustomed to seeing life and death, so how can they be confused by appearances? What can save people is a good way, and they should be studied." As for whether it is a Westerner's medical skill or not, it doesn't matter at all!"
"Well said!" a voice suddenly sounded from behind her, and Sojiro in front of her showed a look of surprise.
She turned around and saw Yingluo, who was dressed in white, standing there with a smile on her face, holding the grilled fish she had just sent in her mouth, swallowing it in three or two bites, and then burping, came to her, and said appreciatively: "The little girl is young, but her knowledge is really extraordinary, she is really unseemly." Listen to what you just said, your name is Gao Hehui, good name, I like you very much!"
Yingluo leaned up to her, lowered his body and whispered in her ear: "Maybe in a few years, you will really be more powerful than me, not necessarily!"
Gao Hehui's face turned red, even the tips of his ears were very hot, and there seemed to be a ball of heat on the top of his head.
"You...... Did you wake up just now, you ...... You heard it all?" What could be more embarrassing than being exposed for big words, Gao Hehui didn't know, but she couldn't wait to find a hole to get into at the moment.
"Haha, it's not all awake, but don't underestimate the swordsman's body, it's hard to hear it when a person speaks in my ear!" Yingluo said with a smile: "But you're right, you will definitely be better than me in the future, I will only kill people, but you will save people, isn't it clear which is better and which is inferior?"
Gao Hehui unexpectedly changed her usual arrogant appearance, she was a little embarrassed, her face was also red, and she was more like a little rabbit on a rampage in her heart. She lowered her head, twisted her fingers, and asked in a twisted voice, "Really...... Is it really possible? Sister Yingluo, you didn't lie to me, did you?"
After speaking, she cautiously asked, "Can I call you Sister Yingluo?"
"Why not? You can do it!" Young-rook rubbed Gao Hehui's head, and it was quite amusing to see the half-grown girl with an expression of enjoyment like a kitten.
This kid is cold on the outside and hot on the inside.
But, indeed, a good boy.
"Okay, thank you for taking care of me these days, I'm leaving too. If you go back to sleep, your whole body will be rusty!" Yingluo stretched and began to say goodbye.
Gao Hehui showed a little reluctance, and hurriedly said: "Please let me check you again, after all, with such a serious injury, according to my estimate, you should not wake up in another two days." ”
Yingluo put on a samurai suit, took the Kikuichi text handed by Sojiro, and then said to Gao Hehui, who was chasing after his ass: "Rest assured, our swordsman's body is different!"
Larger than life?
Gao He Huileng, aren't all people the same?
"You'll find out later!" Eiroku said no longer to explain, and said to Sojiro, "Let's go, follow me to meet an old friend." ”
"Yes!" Sojiro replied, grimacing at the dazed Gao Hehui, and then caught up with Yingluo in a few steps, and the two drifted apart.
"I don't know when we'll see you again. Gao Hehui said to herself, but after thinking about it, if Sister Yingluo came to her, wouldn't it mean that she was injured again?
In that case, she would rather never see him for the rest of her life.
The pain of longing, as long as you bear it silently.
She's so strong.
There was no one else in the room except her, only the dinner plates on the table, which were still quietly placed.
Wait, dinner plates?
Gao Hehui trembled, ran over in a few steps, and stared at the plate with wide eyes.
"My Fish !!"
A wail reminded me that the future famous doctor is still at the age of greed.
The so-called strength is just a shell built to protect herself, and her heart is actually no different from an ordinary child.
Someday, she will take down her protection and show her true colors.
Because everything Yingluo is doing, isn't it all for this goal?
There are more and more people with the same idea, and they are changing this era little by little.
