The Seven Realities of the Rogue

038 White plum with blood

No matter what I drink recently, I can only taste blood.

In a tavern, Jian Xin drank alone here, as if he couldn't hear the hustle and bustle of the people around him, and just immersed himself in his own world.

"It's hard to drink." He whispered to himself, obviously other people drank so freely, but he couldn't express his inner emotions by watching alcoholism, and his interest always drank less and less.

Suddenly, the surrounding voices disappeared, and the tavern fell into silence, but even so, Kenshin still didn't turn around to check the situation, but just buried his head in his drink.

Then I felt a person sitting down behind me.

"Welcome, what do you want, Miss?"

"Give me a glass of cold wine."

It was a woman with a cold voice, and just from the voice, one could tell that this guest should be a beauty.

Although this doesn't make any sense to Kenshin.

The wine was drunk glass by glass, and the time passed along with it. The night of the Garden Festival outside was very lively, and thanks to the festival, the sound of this tavern seemed to be much better than the previous days.

Kenshin learned to drink alcohol from the days when his face was scratched.

From the very beginning, he didn't feel how delicious the wine was, and recently it only tasted like blood.

So Jian Xin still doesn't understand why he is obsessed with the taste of wine, maybe it's because the master always travels around the world with a wine jug by his side?What else could be the reason?

Jian Xin was so immersed in his own world that he didn't notice that the tavern tonight was mixed with fish and dragons, and many people had already set their minds on the woman sitting behind him.Seeing that the beauty wine tour was halfway through, with a slightly drunken look, someone finally couldn't bear it and stood up.

"Walk."

"Um, hehe."

Two tall and burly men with swords lifted the wine bottle on the table and walked towards the woman's seat.

"Hey, girl!"

He placed the wine bottle heavily in front of the woman, and the two had a bad attitude.

"Would you like a drink for the face?"

The woman raised her head and looked at the two expressionlessly, but she was very calm and didn't seem to be flustered at all. She looked at the villain who was causing trouble with her dark eyes and said nothing, and she didn't understand what she was thinking.

"Tsk, women don't know how to flatter." Impatient with the wait, the villain changed his face and began to threaten her, saying, "I am a diligent king and righteous man from Huijin, and I work hard day and night for you common people!!"

Another person also chimed in

"To repay us, isn't it natural to have a glass of wine with us!!"

The woman was still not frightened, she looked at the two as if she was looking at two clowns.

"Aizu is a pro-shogun faction," she said.

Hearing that the woman exposed the lies of the two thugs, the crowd below also burst into laughter, and they drew their knives at everyone in anger.

"What are you laughing at!!"

After being threatened with a knife, ordinary people also kept silent and did not dare to continue talking.

"Heh, it's not good for you to talk too much!!"

"This time, you will save your life."

"Indeed, I saved my life." Jian Xin, who had been silent all along, drank the last drop of wine and stood up from his seat.

"If you draw the knife, I will definitely take your life."

"what?!"

The villain wanted to draw his sword and slash at the ignorant person who came out to disrupt the situation, but found that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't draw his sword out an inch.

Kenshin put his palm against the hilt of his knife.

"A word of advice, Your Excellency." He looked up at the man's eyes, and the villain only felt a sudden chill all over his body, and his strength lost [-]% to [-]% in an instant.

"The turmoil in Kyoto will become more and more intense in the future. Neither the shogunate nor the reformers will allow false righteous men to run rampant. If you want to survive, you should return to the countryside early."

"But, damn it..."

Seeing someone stand out, the others also had the courage to boo.

"Yes! Counterfeit get out!"

"Two idiots."

The villain couldn't bear the pressure from both sides, and fled out of the tavern in a panic after saying harsh words.

"Excuse me." Kenshin bowed to the boss, left the coin and left.From the beginning to the end, he never turned his head to look at the woman, nor did he look at Xuedaiba.

"Well, the young man is really amazing!" "Looks like a righteous man."

Yukiyo looked forward to the back of Kenshin who left, she didn't feel angry after seeing her enemy, nor grateful after being rescued by Kenshin, she was calmer than she expected.

The executioner drew his sword and fasted.

Is it just a child?

……

……

Kenshin deliberately chose a street with few people to go back. Tonight most people gathered in the bustling center of Kyoto, and remote places were even more silent than usual.

His heart was disturbed, if it was an unknown person like in the past, how could he be angry.

"master."

Looking at the cherry blossoms at night in spring, looking at the stars in summer, enjoying the full moon in autumn, and seeing the first snow in winter, there is no wine that is not good in this situation. If you still feel bad, it must be a human problem.

"So, is it my fault?"

The purpose of Feitian Yujianliu is to save the world from the suffering of troubled times, and this is the time to practice it.

"Okay, here he is."

"Are you really going to kill him?"

"Idiot, isn't it common to kill people in Kyoto now?"

Hiding in the dark, the two were the two villains who had just been humiliated by Kenshin in the tavern.

"Killing people is commonplace, indeed."

"Who!!"

Behind them appeared a man in black and holding a double blade connected by an iron chain.

"If you want to blame, blame you for appearing here."

Without saying a word, the man in black raised his knife and killed without any mercy.

Jian Xin was walking on the road when he suddenly felt the sound of hurried footsteps coming from behind the knife, subconsciously he turned around immediately and put his hand on the handle of his knife.

"Help! Help!!"

Is it the villain just now?

There was only one person left, who fled in the direction of Kenshin while shouting for help.But before he reached Jian Xin's body, his throat was pierced by a flying blade thrown from behind.

Couldn't even make a scream.

"You are the executioner who draws his sword." Withdrawing the flying blade, the man in black asked Jianxin.

"What's the matter?" Jian Xin's expression didn't change at all, and he didn't waver even though the man died a terrible death.

Not to mention more, the man's move is a killer move.The thrown flying blade is as fast as a bullet and directly hits Jianxin's head.

Have your whereabouts been exposed?

That's why there are assassins who come to kill themselves.

Swinging the knife and flicking away the opponent's weapon, Jian Xin quickly approached the man. Since the opponent has the means of long-range attack, the chance of winning against him is better if he gets close.

But that man obviously has extraordinary means. I don’t know how much effort he used to throw the knife before, but it landed deep in the stone slab. Kenshin.

"..." Then he jumped down from a high place holding another knife high, relying on the strength of the fall, he was bound to split the heart of the sword in two.

"..."

He has some skills, but it's a pity that he is just flamboyant.

Kenshin looked at the person's falling trajectory as if he was watching a dozing wild cat fall from the sky.

Effortlessly dodging the seemingly quick slash, the man rammed towards the knife he had nailed into the stone slab before.At some point, it was forcibly pulled out by Jian Xin.

He wasn't bound to Kenshin's actions.

Cut in two, blood splashed in the sky.

There is one more person.

Kenshin turned his head, and he saw standing there was the woman he had just rescued, her snow-white kimono was stained with black and red blood, but she was still not panicked at all.

She has seen everything.

And the identity of Ba Dao Zhai cannot be exposed to others.

"I chased it out to thank you for your help just now..."

On Xuedaiba's cheeks, blood slid down to his neck.

"Tragedy scenes are often described as 'bloody storms'."

Dark night, lavender shawl, black eyes.

"You did evoke, bloody."

Kenshin couldn't kill her with his hands.

The sword in his hand slipped to the ground at some point.
