"After tonight, go to my house and sit down, Uchiko has been looking forward to it for a long time. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info," Kamiya said.

"Okay!" Yingluo nodded: "Your wife and Kaoru are fine." ”

"Rest assured, they're at home, and the fire shouldn't be there. ”

"Alright, I'll go see if anyone else needs help. ”

"Well, I'm going to take someone to build a barrier. ”

"Be careful. ”

"You too!"

In just a few words, the two staggered.

Time does not allow them to stop and reminisce, and every second someone dies in the fire.

Yingluo has been in and out of the fire again and again, gaining countless thanks and witnessing countless tragedies.

Kamiya is a well-known figure in Kyoto, and he led the men to tear down the buildings on the periphery of the fire to prevent it from spreading.

But no matter what you do, you have the same goal, to save people.

As everyone knows, the purpose of this group of people who set the fire is also to save people.

It's just that one saves the present, and the other saves the future.

Maybe the big people will say that the common people are short-sighted and insightful.

But if we lose the present, how can we have a future?

Who's wrong?

No one is wrong!

That's where the sadness lies.

Now is the time when tragedies are repeated.

The night was long, and Yingluo didn't know how many people she had rescued, but she was always full of strength.

Wherever there is a call, she appears. It wasn't until she came to a dojo that most of the plaque had been destroyed by fire, and the words "Kamiya ......" were faintly written on it.

She froze.

This is the dojo of Kamiya, doesn't it mean that the fire won't burn here?

Does Kamiya know, and where are his wife and Kaoru-chan?

She hoped it was all a coincidence.

"Anyone?" she cried, then listened.

The swordsman's body gave her extraordinary hearing, and a faint cry reached her ears.

"Save ...... Yes...... Kid ......"

Without saying a word, she rushed in.

The fire was raging, and she lowered her body, looking for life in the flames. Finally, in the corner room, the target was found.

It's the woman who had a relationship last time.,Kamiya's wife.。

"Don't be afraid, I'm coming!"

"Leave me alone, save my child!" After the woman finished speaking, she saw the face of the person who came clearly, and said in surprise: "Ying...... Miss Yingluo?"

Yingluo smiled and nodded: "It's me, we are really fated, don't worry, I'll save you out." ”

Although she was laughing, her heart sank.

A burning beam pressed against the woman, and Ying Luo tried to lift it a few times, but she didn't move, probably stuck by something. And the flames have long covered the woman's back, and you can smell the stench of burnt fat.

I can't imagine how she persevered.

"Leave me alone, Miss Yingluo, save Kaoru, save Kaoru!" The woman didn't care about her own safety, she only had her daughter in her heart.

"I will, I'll get you both out!Where is Kaoru-chan, the room next to it?" Ying Luo was covered in sweat, trying to show confidence and give the other party confidence.

The woman's body squirmed, revealing the small space beneath her, where a two-year-old lay quietly, eating her fingers and looking at her mother without blinking.

She used her body to prop up a space, even if her back was scorched by the fire, just to give her child hope of birth.

Yingluo was stunned.

She understood what had allowed this woman to hold on until now.

"Miss Yingluo, save Kaoru, leave me alone!"

It's love!

She nodded, wanting to hug Kaoru, but I don't know if it was because of her strength or the wrong way, Kaoru struggled violently and cried. Due to the limited terrain, Yingluo could only reach in with one hand, and Xiao Xun moved wildly, which greatly increased the difficulty of rescue.

"Little Kaoru is good, don't cry, don't cry!" The woman was obviously scorched by the scorching flames, but she sang a beautiful children's rhyme in a gentle voice: "The red dragonfly in the sunset, please tell me." What day did you ......meet your childhood?"

Kaoru stopped struggling, laughed, and touched her mother's face. Mom laughed too, but tears fell.

"Hold on, I'll come back to save you!" Yingluo said as he hugged Kaoru and gritted his teeth.

The woman lay on the ground, and in just a dozen seconds, she lost all her strength.

"Thank you...... Thank. ”

These were her last words in the world.

Kaoru is crying because she doesn't want to lose her mother.

……

"Mr. Kamiya, this is the last building, but the wind has changed, and the fire is going northwest. ”

Northwest!

Kamiya was startled, that was the direction of the dojo.

He glanced around, but didn't say much, just nodded.

"Anyway, let's make the separation zone over here first. ”

"Yes!"

……

The fire was extinguished after a night.

In other words, it burned everything that could be burned and extinguished itself.

More than 30,000 homes were burned down, several streets were completely reduced to ashes, and corpses littered the entire city of Kyoto.

If it weren't for Kamiya's people to create the isolation zone in the first place, this loss would have been even greater.

But the hero was greeted by the news of his ruined home and the death of his wife.

Yingluo hugged Kaoru and conveyed the news to Kamiya, who was embarrassed.

Kamiya sat on the ground and didn't cry, just sighed.

Sigh after sigh.

He was like a dying old man, surrounded by death.

It is impossible to cry out of grief and ...... Kick oneself.

And he is just one of tens of thousands of families.

In just one night, someone lost everything.

The Great Fire of Kyoto shocked the whole country, and the shogunate also instigated the emperor to issue an edict to prepare for a war against the Choshu domain.

But what can be done, the dead will not survive, and the war will only make more people die.

The head secretary fell, not in the heat of battle, but after seeing the devastated and ash-covered Kyoto.

"We've fought with our lives so far, what's the use!?"

After saying this, she vomited blood from her mouth and fainted to the ground.

This swordsman, who once fought a hundred enemies, can now only lie on the hospital bed, spending most of the day in a coma, and the only time he wakes up is coughing constantly, and even breathing as if he is being tortured.

"Probably the spirits of the dead under my sword have turned into evil spirits and want to drag me down. The blonde girl turned pale and made a joke.

"Take medicine and rest, you will always get better. Yingluo could only answer like this.

The chief secretary smiled, swallowed the bitter potion, and closed his eyes: "Yes, rest more, it will always be fine." Remember that you have an appointment with Kamiya in the afternoon, go ahead, leave me alone, as soon as I fall asleep, I won't wake up until tomorrow. "Or, never to wake up again?

Yingluo nodded, but did not leave, stayed by her side, and waited for her to fall asleep, then quietly got up and gently closed the door.

There was still a foul smell in the streets, and faint cries could be heard everywhere.

A small part of Kamiya's dojo still survived, and he took Kaoru to live in it.

Ying fell through the door, and Kamiya had been waiting for a long time and threw something at her.

She caught it, and it was a bamboo knife.

"Let's have one. Kamiya put on a posture: "If you make an appointment to have a discussion, you attack first!"

Yingluo nodded, and slashed over with a sword, the speed was not fast, it was just an ordinary level, at the level of Kamigu, dodging or blocking, it was just a thought.

But she guessed wrong, Kamiya neither dodged nor raised his sword to block, but raised his hands high, crossed each other, and blocked the attack of the bamboo knife with the back of his hand, then stepped forward and poked her throat with the hilt of the knife.

Yingluo didn't dodge, and the hilt of the knife stopped at the last minute.

Kamiya closed his stance: "First block, even high defense, the name of the blade, and then attack, and even high attack, called copying the knife." This is the highest meaning of the Living Heart Flow of Kamiya, which I founded. ”

After he finished speaking, he dropped the wooden sword and threw a gourd: "Come, drink!" He knew that with the talent of a girl, as long as he had seen the swordsmanship, there was nothing that he could not learn.

Yingluo pulled the cork, and the mellow wine flowed down her throat, and there seemed to be a warm current in her stomach.

"Good wine!" she complimented, and asked, "Won't you drink it?"

Kamiya didn't prepare his share, and he shook his head, "For some reason, I haven't tasted wine since that night. ”

If the wine is as bland and tasteless as water, then there must be something wrong with the person who is drinking.

He pointed to the gourd and said, "This is specially prepared for you by Uchiko." When she heard that you like to drink, she went to the village outside the city to buy the gourd, which she planted with her own hands, and it was one of the most beautiful ones. If the weather was good, I planned to place the banquet under the gourd vine...... Now, though, it's a place of ashes. ”

“…… I'm sorry, I should have come earlier. ”

"No, it's not your fault. Kamiya waved his hand: "It's her blessing." ”

The air fell silent.

Kamiya was stunned for a moment, then suddenly came back to his senses and said apologetically, "I'm sorry for saying something unpleasant." The prayer garden festival is still like yesterday, remember that you made an agreement with her at the beginning, but unfortunately the wine banquet is gone, only the discussion just now. ”

Yingluo shook his head: "That's not called a competition, it's a matter of asking for a lone." ”

“……”

Kamiya smiled bitterly: "Did you see it?" But please don't refuse, Kaoru can only rest assured if I entrust it to you." ”

"What are you going to do?"

"I signed up for the army. ”

"What about the purpose, revenge?"

"No, I just don't want the world to go through the same pain as I do. ”

A bamboo knife was thrown in front of him.

"Pick it up!" Yingluo said, "Leave everything behind, and come to fight like a man!"

"I don't have the heart to ...... right now"

Before the words fell, the bamboo knife came with the sound of the wind.

"Smack!"

Crisp clash.

He subconsciously parried Yingluo's attack.

After a short silence, the voice sounded again, faster and faster, like a thunderstorm in summer, hitting people's hearts!
