Genji Heavy

Under the night, the Shinsengumi is taking advantage of the darkness to move forward quickly.

Not long ago, they got the news that there was a secret plan by the downfall faction to hold a secret meeting somewhere.

The Shinsengumi took a lot of effort to find out the time and place.Today is the day when the Fallen Sect holds secret talks.

Seeing that the time was almost up, the Shinsengumi sent out the prepared team.

They had already figured out the route to the secret meeting place.Now all the way forward is very smooth, and soon arrived at the promising hiding place, and quickly hid their respective figures, patiently waiting in the dark for the appearance of the Fallen Sect.

This time the team was led by Souji Okita, the captain of the first team, and Toshizo Hijikata, the deputy leader of the Shinsengumi.

Looking at Toshizo Hijikata squatting beside him, Souji Okita raised his hand and poked him, "Mr. Hijikata."

Hijikata Toshizo, who was deep in thought, came out of his thoughts, frowned and looked at Souji Okita, clearly expressing his confusion.

"what happened?"

Director Chong Tian said: "It's nothing, it's just... isn't it good for you to come out so late?"

Hijikata Suisan said: "What kind of girl am I? What exactly are you trying to say, Chief?"

However, he immediately understood by himself, and his brows suddenly frowned into a more rugged "Chuan" shape.

"You, it's not because of what those people said during the day?"

"Yes," Okita Souji didn't hide, and admitted directly, "I see that they are very serious when they say 'Yin Qi', what if it is true? Mr. Hijikata, will you be caught by someone if you appear like this?" Wrap up something clean?"

Hijikata Toshizo shook his head, "What stupid things are you talking about? Do you want me to ignore Shinsengumi's actions? How can such a demonic thing like Yin Qi be possible?"

He was firm, but Okita Souji hesitated.

"No, just because it sounds unbelievable, so it's more likely to be true, isn't it? Besides, Mr. Hijikata, your complexion is really not very good recently, you are turning blue, and your body temperature is also a little low. To be honest, it looks like you are being haunted by ghosts The way you live."

"ghost?"

Hijikata Toshisan laughed, raised his hand and vigorously rubbed Okita Souji's head unceremoniously.

"It's just that there are a lot of things going on recently, so it's good to take some time to rest. If you want to talk about your body, you might as well take care of your physical condition first. You still have to participate in such a night operation like now. , rest in the house more, let’s take care of your body.”

He couldn't help but began to exhort again.

Do you take good care of your body...

Souji Okita sighed invisibly, and then smiled, "Oh, Mr. Hijikata, are you concerned about me? Don't worry, if I don't use a knife for too long, I will really get sick."

They fell silent again and continued to wait.

But they didn't know that the person who told them about Yin Qi had disappeared without a sound, and was no longer in the house of Xinxuantu.

on the roof not far away.

The three people who were supposed to be guarded in the house were staying on the roof at the moment, and there was also an ordinary member of the Shinsengumi besides them.

Mustache, with one leg bent, sat on the roof in an elegant posture, looking down.

With the moonlight and the advantage of being at a high place, one can vaguely see a group of people hiding in front of them.

"Oh... where is Hijikata-san?"

Kunihiro Horikawa next to him heard the words, stepped forward a few steps, and pointed out the location for Higakiri, "Mr. Hijikata is right there."

Then he sighed.

"Sure enough, Mr. Hijikata has gone out."

Mustache said: "After all, he still doesn't believe in the existence of ghosts."

Horikawa Kunihiro and Izumi Mori Kanesada also knew it very well.During the day, when Higaki asked them if Hijikata Toshisan would not go out at night, the answer he gave was no.

Because he doesn't believe it.

To solve the curse on Toshisan Hijikata and eliminate the Yin Qi, his cooperation is definitely needed, so he has to trust them.

What a good time to "seeing is believing" on a night like this.

It's just that the night is not very friendly to her and her brother.

Dato and Wakizashi, who were together, are also very aware of this, so they are worrying.After all, if you want to deal with ghosts and monsters, the two swords present are the experts.

Izumi Shou couldn't help but said: "Higakiri-den, Khenmaru-den, are you all right? Wait—"

"Don't worry, don't worry," Higakiri raised his hand and patted Izumi Mori's shoulder, comforting the worried little girl, "I can still see a little bit."

Kagemaru also said: "At least we are not big swords. Although our strength will be greatly affected in the dark, we are not completely invisible."

Mustache said: "That's right, besides, my brother and I have good spiritual power. If it weren't for the monsters that are too powerful, my brother and I can still deal with it. At least it is still possible to retreat with human beings. "

With Hijikata Toshizo's current concentration of yin energy, he would not be able to attract monsters of the level of Toshizuchi and Ibaraki Doji.

Therefore, relying on the blessing of spiritual power, Higakiri and Kenmaru still have some confidence.

And they are not unprepared.

When we were in Wanwu not long ago, the girl who judged God enthusiastically gave the siblings a lot of self-made lighting charms.

At this time, it can last for a while.

Time passed little by little.

It was almost time for the secret talks of the Banbai faction, but there was no movement on the street, not even a single person.

Such a situation made Hijikata Toshisan's expression gradually serious.

"Things seem to have changed."

Director Okita also said seriously: "Could it be that the news about our ambush has leaked out?"

The two looked at each other.

In order to find out the situation, they ordered two team members who were good at scouting, went out to check the situation, then kept quiet for a while, continued to lurk, and waited and watched.

Hijikata Toishan knelt on one knee, his eyes scanning the surrounding situation sharply.

It is very likely that the downfall faction found something wrong and changed the time, so he was quite calm about it.

But there was an inexplicable uneasiness beating in his heart.

wrong……

What's wrong?

After thinking about it carefully, Tukata Suisan suddenly shuddered, reacted, and his whole face suddenly turned cold.

"Director," he said slowly, "do you feel that the surrounding area is too quiet?"

Director Okita was puzzled and said, "Quiet? Of course it's quiet at this time... Wait!"

He suddenly reacted, his face froze.

A cold sweat broke out behind him instantly.

It's very quiet around here, and it's too quiet, not even the slightest angry sound.

Insects, small animals, wind...no sound at all.

Okita Souji is known as the son of a demon, he was like a ghost when he charged for the Shinsengumi, and he didn't change his expression when facing blood everywhere.

But the gloomy unknown at this moment made him break out in a cold sweat.

Token Fusangshin on the roof also noticed something was wrong.

In the darkness, the whole body with a large white mustache raised his hand and waved the air in front of him.

Moist moisture covered her palms, but a slight coolness passed through her fingers.

"It's foggy," said Mustache.

This mist is like some kind of switch.

I don't know when this space, which seemed to be quiet as a false setting, suddenly became active again.

But this kind of active and lifeless, like a zombie jumping up and down, can't make the living people in it relax.

Izumi Mori Kanesada grasped Horikawa Kunihiro's wrist at once, carefully leaned against him, and opened his eyes wide to observe the surroundings.

"What's the situation, isn't it, is there something coming?!"

Kunihiro Horikawa looked at her, and suddenly smiled: "Kane, are you afraid of ghosts?"

Immediately, Izumi Mori Kanesada straightened his back, forced himself to let go of Horikawa Kunihiro's hand, raised his head and said, "What are ghosts, how could I be afraid?"

The smile on Horikawa Kunihiro's face remained unchanged, "Yeah, why is Kane-chan afraid of ghosts?"

"But we have to go down. These members of the newly selected team need our protection to evacuate."

Izumi Mori Kanesada's hands trembled, she held on and said, "Okay, let's go down."

They had already been allocated before, and Keimaru would take the two of them and escort the other members of the Shinsengumi back to the village safely.

The safety of Hijikata Toshizo is entrusted to Higiri.

This may seem unbalanced, with so many people, the three of them will be in charge of the three of them, and Hikiri will be in charge of Hijikata Toshisan.

But in fact, Hijikata Toshizo is the target of these "abnormalities", and everyone else is incidental.

If it weren't for the fear that those ghosts would use some special spells, Izumi Mamoru and Horikawa Kunihiro, two unfamiliar swordsmen, would not be able to deal with it, and Keimaru would also stay in charge of Hijikata Toshizo with his sister.

Hikiri and Kemaru looked at each other, and after a quick exchange of sights, they stepped forward together tacitly without saying a word.

In fact, if the operation went smoothly, they could still evacuate together.

At this moment, the fog has filled the entire street, even if it is still relatively thin, it seems to have added a filter to the surrounding area, making it foggy.

"Withdraw," Hijikata Toshizo ordered decisively.

His intuition told him that he couldn't delay for a moment.

However, after only a few steps, everyone stopped.

"Mr. Hijikata, look!" Okita Souji pointed to the front.

In the mist, several slender shadows appeared without warning, walking towards them staggeringly.

— all without feet.

"Ghost!"

Someone in the team couldn't bear it anymore and screamed out.

Hijikata Suizan immediately said, "What are you panicking about!"

With a roar, the mighty devil's deputy commander immediately stabilized the team.

"It's really a ghost?" Mr. Okita quickly adapted, and even raised the knife in his hand full of desire to explore.

"I don't know if the knife is useful."

As soon as he got closer, Higiri saw Okita Souji's eager action.

"Brother," she called out over her shoulder.

So Kewan rushed forward, entered the mist, and slashed at those shadows.

For the ghosts, the blade wrapped in spiritual power has the pain of burning the body.

But with the strength of the knee pill, the burning is only a moment.

Afterwards, the Shinsengumi met Sanren, who was supposed to be guarded in the village, and a team member who should not be here, and looked at each other in blank dismay.

Hijikata Suisan said: "You—"

Higakiri turned his head and smiled, "Mr. Hijikata came out anyway."

Under the reminder, he remembered the instructions given to him by the people opposite him during the day, and Hijikata Toshisan felt a little embarrassed.

Higakiri sighed not very sincerely, "We've already said it, Mr. Hijikata, don't come out at night."
