Chapter 163: The Soul of a Samurai
The undead who had inhaled Daoxin turned into a pure black lotus flower and flew back unhurriedly, but instead of returning to the hands of love, it stopped above the outstretched palm of another person, quietly rotating clockwise.
Looking at the black lotus flower hovering above his palm, Shang Yang, who suddenly appeared at some point, touched his chin, sighed, and complained.
"It's becoming more and more like the primordial god Black Lotus of the Heavenless Buddha, hey......"
As he spoke, Shang Yang moved his index finger slightly, and the lotus flower that had originally turned pure black faded to black, becoming the original Yuanshen Qinglian.
Just now, the Yuanshen Qinglian became the Yuanshen Black Lotus, which is completely a characteristic of the Yuanshen Qinglian itself, which means that it is enclosed with inhuman things such as the dead or the undead, and Shang Yang's move is to cancel this "setting" of the Yuanshen Qinglian.
After restoring the Yuanshen Black Lotus to the Yuanshen Qinglian, Shang Yang handed the Yuanshen Qinglian to Ai, turned his head, and set his eyes on Xianwangxiang, which was already looming in the wind and snow, touched his chin, and showed a thoughtful look.
Seeing Shang Yang's appearance, Xia Na, who appeared next to Ai with Shang Yang, and was about to leave here together, asked with a little doubt.
"What's the matter, Shang Yang? Hurry back, we still have a lot to do. ”
"Well, that's right," Shang Yang also turned around and agreed, "Let's go back." ”
A few hours later, in Edo Kabukicho, on the second floor of the Toboshi Tavern.
Since the early hours of the morning, it has been raining heavily in Edo, which has not rained for a long time, and with this gloomy weather, the mood of everyone in the house has become more and more gloomy.
"Ahh......h ”
"I'm really sorry," Okita replied with a blank face, "I think I should tell you." ”
"I'm sorry, Gin-chan ......" sat on the sofa, Kagura hugged her knees, and her original appearance of being full of vitality became extremely lost.
Hearing Kagura's apology, Shinpachi also added in frustration.
"If we had noticed from the beginning that Mr. Michinobu wanted to leave Edo with the children......"
"It's not your fault," Yinshi still calmly persuaded, "That guy has also killed countless people, he should have been mentally prepared to die a good death, and in the end, that guy died to protect his children, presumably that guy's psychology is also satisfied." ”
"Boss, I'm sorry to get you involved in strange things," Okita Sogo stood up, still calmly narrating, "It won't be good to get involved, so that's the end of this matter......"
Before he could finish speaking, with the sound of "bang~" when the door of the living room was pushed open, all the children who were adopted by Daoxin lowered their heads and stood at the door of the living room, and when they saw the children, Okita couldn't help but raise his voice and asked.
"You little devils, didn't I say you weren't allowed to come here?!"
Hearing the noise, Yinshi also turned back to his chair and looked at the children at the door suspiciously.
"Brother...... Only, as long as you entrust your brother, you will help with everything, right? The boy at the front asked nervously, "Anything can be done, isn't it?" ”
"Please! Help the teacher get revenge! ”
It was like a fuse, and all the children were crying and choking up to put forward their "commission".
Looking at the scene in front of him, Shinpachi and Kagura glanced at each other, as if they were at a loss.
"This," a young boy with tears in his eyes, placed a rare game sticker on the table in front of Gintoki, "my most precious treasure......
"We have no money," said another boy with a loud noise, spreading a cloth parcel on the table, which was filled with all kinds of old toys, "but we give you all our treasures, so I beg you, brother......"
Looking at what was happening in front of him, Okita quietly glanced at the old toy on the table in front of him, turned sideways, and softened his tone a little.
"Enough is enough, you guys, come back to the real selection group with me."
"We all know," however, as if he hadn't heard Sogoku's words, the boy who had spread out the package then wept as he wiped his tears, "and the teacher must have done something bad somewhere, so he was killed...... But ah, he will always be the most beloved father and the most wonderful father to us! ”
Silent...... Then, Yinshi asked calmly as he picked up the game sticker on the table.
"Hey, little imp, isn't this the super popular battle sticker lately?"
"Huh?" The young boy in front of him was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked, "Brother, do you know?" ”
"Of course I know," Yinshi said unhurriedly, "because I'm also collecting, battle stickers." ”
As he spoke, Yinshi stood up and continued with a smile.
"I'm willing to do anything for this, and if you want to go back, there's no way."
Everyone was stunned when they heard Gintoki's obvious words, and immediately afterward, all the children cried with joy, and Okita Sogo couldn't believe it.
"Old, boss?!"
"Gin-chan!" Hearing this, because she was too shocked, Kagura subconsciously stood up on the sofa and asked eagerly, "Are you serious?!" ”
"I thought you were a crazy guy, but I didn't expect you to be so stupid," Hijikata Shishiro, who arrived at some point, stood outside the living room, leaned against the door frame, lit a cigarette for himself, and continued, "The other party is not an ordinary force that can be easily defeated by a small character like you. ”
"I'm going to die......"
Hearing this, Yinshi just said calmly, "I won't trouble you." ”
"Of course, your life or death has nothing to do with me," Hijikata Shiro also said calmly, "but I don't understand, is it necessary to go out of your way to send you to death?" ”
"If I don't go, I'll die," said Yinshi with a smile and an unhurried declaration in a tone that seemed to be proud.
"There is something more important in my body than the heart, although it is invisible, but it does exist in my body, from the head to the bottom, because of it, I can stand up straight and sit upright, even if my steps are shaky, I can move straight forward, if I stop here, the thing will break."
"The soul will break."
"Even if my heart stops beating, the most important thing for me is it, even if it is old and hunchbacked, it must always be straight."
PS: Well, everyone who hasn't seen Gintama understands~ This is a samurai with an unbreakable soul, Sakata Gintoki, even if he is usually just an ordinary waste wood, even if he is usually just a guy who is addicted to gambling, even if he is usually just a sweet tooth who likes sweets, but, Sakata Gintoki, his whole life is in accordance with his own principles, so chic to live, to protect the person who should be protected, even if he loses how many times he does not give up picking up again, this is ~ Gintama ~!
