The Seven Realities of the Rogue

Regarding the memory of Edo, Nanami can't find pain or joy. Before the great changes in the Asakura family, the feeling of this most prosperous city in Japan at that time was very vague to Nanami.

She couldn't understand the reason for people's laughter. She said that there was a gap of three years, and she didn't know how much she was separated from the world.

Qishi is unhappy, the world after time travel cannot give her happy feelings, she is surrounded by boredom and pain, and what is even more sad is that she does not even have the ability to break this deadlock, she did not have it in the past, and she still does not have it now.

In retrospect, hasn't she been drifting with the tide of fate?

She will go wherever fate tells her to go.

Only the decision to go back to Edo this time is her own decision, there is no Asakura Hayato, there is no Bigu Qingjuro, it is Nanami who decides to follow Okita Souji.

Although she didn't know what to do when she arrived in Edo.

Can she really retrieve her mother's relic?

In fact, she can't get it, because she is afraid of being caught. As long as there is a little danger, Qishi will do her best to avoid it. It is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, let alone run on a dead end. .

"Natsumi, we're here, let's go." Okita Souji reminded Asakura Nanami.

"Oh, that, Director." Qishi smiled shyly and said, "I have a place I want to go to, let's meet at the testing hall then."

After finishing speaking, he left in a hurry without listening to what Okita Souji had to say.

"Uh, Qishi..." The young man scratched his head in embarrassment, wondering in his heart, does Qishi really know where the testing hall is?Before he could tell her, he ran away so quickly.

"Forget it, she must have a way to find it herself." Director Okita headed towards the market with the carriage for purchasing things.

Edo is still Edo. Even though it has undergone tremendous changes, the city is still prosperous in its core. It is destined not to be completely lonely, just like Beiping in China. No matter how many wounds history has left on it, it will eventually stand up. The attitude that a capital should have has become the dream of the people all over the country.

In today's Edo, in the future Tokyo, the people who live here don't say anything, but the pride has been deeply engraved in their hearts, even if it declines.

Qi Shi walked through the passing pedestrians towards the Asakura family’s house, from trotting to walking, from anxious to calm, her emotional calm was faster than she imagined, until she saw the familiar Chinese characters of Asakura again. Only then did his heart agitate again, pretending to be passing by, and after wandering around and observing that there was no suspicious person, Asakura Nanami sneaked into the house along the tree by the wall.

After exercising, the control of the body became easier, and this rough dive was completed with almost no effort.

"..."

Familiar things are covered with dust, and the house that no one lives in decays very quickly. The furniture that was destroyed in the siege that night, the fallen paintings, etc. were left in place without being restored. The isolated silence reveals the tragedies that have happened.

"It's been more than a year."

In fact, she didn't have much expectation. After that tragedy, how many things can the Asakura family leave behind?

I'm afraid it has been robbed and destroyed long ago.

Walking slowly towards her parents' room, Qishi opened the door.

"no change."

Beds and quilts are the same as before.

She remembered that her mother kept separating the clothes she was using from the old clothes that didn't fit, and she was reluctant to throw away the old ones. Qi Shi didn't understand her mother's birth. This beautiful woman was frugal and restrained. She seemed like The clear spring in the mountains is not eye-catching, but it is beautiful enough that people will be moved by accidental glances, thinking that her existence is very meaningful, and it is good that she is there.

"Mother."

Mother, mother, mother.

The woman who exchanged her own life for the life of her daughter's husband, the woman who has always been gentle in Qishi's eyes, the most stubborn resistance in her life was the sentence "go away" to Qishi and Hayato.

The meaning of survival in troubled times, a thousand people, there are a thousand changes, Asakura Hayato, Nanami's mother Asakura Tsubasa, they all handed in satisfactory answers for themselves.

Next, let's look at her, Asakura Nanami's answer.

I cried, Qishi cried.

Tears were shed again, tears for the pain of the past.

Mother's clothes are not much left, and the expensive clothes may have been taken away by the soldiers of the shogunate and exchanged for coins.

In the dusty wooden box, she found the clothes left by her mother, the clothes from her childhood, girlhood, and womanhood. She didn't know what kind of demon she was possessed by, and she always refused women's clothing, and she kept a respectful distance from kimonos. , I replaced the furisodes worn by the mother or the child, the middle furisodes, some faded, and the material is not very good. It can be seen that the mother's past family background may not be rich.

But, it's beautiful.

The clothes are beautiful, and Qishi is also beautiful. The strong Qishi has the unyieldingness of a man, and the soft Qishi has the elegance of a woman. The flowers and the sun are so beautiful that it is breathtaking.

"Next, there is one more thing to take away."

There is a secret passage in Hayato's room, no one knows its existence, and only Qishi saw him open it a few times when Hayato was alive, and she entered the secret passage according to her own memory.

The shogunate army did not find this place, perhaps because of the only awe they had towards the Asakura family, they did not search this room carefully.

Qi Shi went down the stone steps and came to a stone room, where all the owners of Chaocang family were enshrined.

Next to the wall, hangs the saber of the Asakura Patriarch of all ages. Because of being too nervous that night, he left this ancient sword that has been handed down along with the Asakura family's musket technology in the depths of the house.

Different from ordinary Japanese swords, the back of this sword is sharpened, and the full-bladed sword is called Chaoki. It is said that it is a famous sword that can cut off Zhaohui.For such a famous knife, without more than a year of maintenance, it will inevitably be bleak.

Qishi took off the knife, and she will take it away with her.

After returning to the room and closing the dark room, she was ready to leave.

"Demon, monster!!"

Qishi heard the shout of a strange man behind her, and she immediately realized that there was someone else here.

Pulling out the knife, turning around, Qi Shi rushed out, and before the man could react, the blade was on his neck.

"Stop, stop, stop!! I'm not a thief!" The man panicked.

Qishi was quite frightened, her reaction just now was completely subconscious, even she herself began to wonder if such super speed was something she could achieve, maybe because she thought the person who came was from the shogunate, Qishi In fact, the sword to save her life had indeed surpassed her limits, and after a while, she felt a dull pain in her feet.

Fortunately, Guqing Juro Juro is not here. Qishi's footwork just now is very similar to the footwork circulated in the Feitian Yujian style. If Gu Qingjuro knows that Qishi is only caught from his few shots I am afraid that the threshold will also be intimidated by Qishi's talent.

"Thief?"

"Who's the thief? You're the one!" With a knife on his neck, and the fact that he can still talk back to a kid like Qishi, I really don't know whether we should admire his courage.

After time-traveling, Qishi wanted to describe a person with rough nerves for the first time. . . . . .

"Remember, my name is Kawamotomo. I come here to collect materials. I will become a famous writer in Edo in the future. The scripts I write will be performed by various Kabuki."

Pick. . . . . .Is it the source of the material, Kawamotomo?

Qishi didn't intend to let him go, after all, even if he wasn't from the shogunate, even if it was just a commoner who saw him, Qishi had no reason to keep him.

Gripping the blade tightly, Qi Shi's eyes were like a knife.
