[Gintama] Mr. Songyang that day

At that time, Yu was still in the medical cabin for examination, Jiang Hua followed the gap and had a secret talk with Songyang.

"At the end of the day, it's out of personal opinion that you, the half-body, are involved. But right now we can't find a solution that can achieve the best of both worlds. The scope of this incident is really too large."

Whether it's the planet being blown up, the homeless celestial beings, or the celestial beings who are afraid of the keys in Xu Xu's hands and want to seize them, or the celestial beings who are staring at the benefits that can be sought, and sneaking in through troubled waters, will not Let it go, the earth has become a target in the universe as you wished, even if the people on the battlefield can really use the alien star Alutana to destroy the real world, there is no guarantee that the coalition forces will not continue to attack.

"I heard that one of your students is negotiating on the ship of the United Army. Although I don't know the specific situation, but no matter what the result is, it is impossible for Xu to retreat completely. We can only hope for the best result first. "

"The best outcome is..."

"If the United Army is willing to give up the key in the hands of the Heavenly Daoists, that would be great. With the benefits that can make them fight among themselves, the earth will become a tasteless abandoned child."

"What about those people who were blown up to destroy the planet?"

When Songyang asked this, Jiang Hua also sighed, looking helpless.

"not sure."

Hatred and pain are not emotions that can be easily erased. Once the evil fruit is planted, it is difficult to remove.

"In any case, Xu committed a crime. This is a fact. She is indeed kind to me. I can only try my best to create the conditions that can bring the best results. This is also my purpose of inviting you here out of selfishness. I'm so sorry."

"it does not matter."

Songyang just shook his head with a smile, and the worry in his eyes didn't show at all.

"Wait for me."

——What kind of answer do you want?

The ship landed staggeringly, and the rabbit brothers and sisters on one side also clamored to go down to help, but they were suppressed by force from the Shen family couple.

"Now is not the time to mess around."

Jiang Hua tapped Kagura's head to preach.

"Stay on the boat and wait for us to come back. You must know that we didn't come to Earth to fight."

"But..." The Yetu girl, who was lifted by Jiang Hua's back collar, tried to argue with her puffy bun face aggrievedly.

"They want to help Yinjiang and Ah Ba, Alu, if the eye boy is broken into glass shards, he can't enslave Alu, and those gang of tax thieves, maybe they can sell their favors, and then they can be enslaved. I am grateful to others and shouted Long live the Queen a hundred times, Aru."

"You, you can't make friends with this idea."

"They are not friends, they are all servants of the queen, Alu!"

In stark contrast to the warm atmosphere of the Rabbit family is the battlefield of swords, lights and swords on the ground.

The location where the ship landed was separated from the center of the battlefield by a large group of people who were fighting hard. The black and white uniforms of the Shinsengumi and Mikai groups were particularly eye-catching among the crowd. Amaterasuin Naraku's black attire was like a crow Mixed in it, it is obvious that the two major police organizations in Edo are struggling to resist the enemy.

Ever since Oboro was taken away by her, Amaterasu-in Naraku must have returned to Xu's command. Songyang didn't know what Xu had done to these assassins, but judging from the battle situation, the crows were just puppets being manipulated. As pathetic as they were once used as weapons.

Song Yang looked forward across the chaotic battle situation, and saw Xu standing in front of the dragon's lair that was in a state of berserk and constantly erupting energy.

Xu was surrounded by policemen, and when the time was right, they raised their knives one after another to fight, and were easily repelled by the knife in Xu's hand. During the stalemate, a circle of vacuum was formed at the edge of the dragon's lair zone.

The silver-haired man lay immobile in the ruins on the other side, struggling to get up.Songyang frowned slightly, and forced himself to look away from the silver-haired disciple who was covered in bruises, and turned to the person who stood like a god of death among the ruins.

Those eyes were bleeding, leaving only the dark eye sockets, reflecting the endless shadows in his heart.

This darkness was once the strongest cage in their memory.

Now Xu plunged into the darkness alone, imprisoning all his yearning and hopes in it.

——As if there is no place in this world anymore.

Did she expect someone to reach out to her?

Song Yang looked at the indifferent smile on this identical face and was slightly fascinated.The memories flooding up in my mind are long and broken, and what remains in my heart is an indelible sadness.

How many times have you walked into the sun with expectations for human beings, only to be driven into the abyss of despair by cold words and sharp knives?

Looking up in the boundless abyss, longing until the last light is swallowed up, no longer wanting to have hope for humans who don't love her, walking alone in the long lonely night, wanting to light up a day for myself lamp.

Although this lamp never warmed itself.

Over time, she also forgot why this light was still flickering, and tried repeatedly to extinguish the faint light, stubbornly trying to destroy the pain and weakness together, so that this cold self could be more in line with the "monster" that should be expelled .

It is obvious that I hate it so much——

"That guy is a monster!"

There was this terrified cry from the crowd, the terror of an enemy who could do no harm was overwhelming, and the weariness of hopeless fighting weighed heavily on their arms holding their knives.

But in order to defend their homeland, no matter how powerful the enemy is, they will still bet their lives to defend a tiny possibility.

Humans are such small and shocking creatures.

"We're here to clear the way for you!"

The Shenjia couple led a group of rabbits from the Seventh Division to jump into the melee crowd, repelling the crows who heard the news, and went deep into the battle ahead, opening a way for Songyang Qing to advance.

The Alien Alutana powder flying in the air also disturbed Jianghua to a certain extent. She waved to Songyang with a pale face.

"Next time, please!"

— Do you still need my answer?

Lu, who had been silent since the spaceship entered the earth, suddenly spoke when Songyang turned to leave.

"teacher……"

Songyang was stunned for a second, then turned his head to look at Yun.

Her big disciple, who was not good at words, was watching her uneasily, his lips were tight, and he hesitated to speak.

"you……"

will you come back?

When the man met his teacher, when the human heart first took shape, he also fell into the shadow of his teacher for thousands of years. Indeed, it is the closest existence to them as humans or as "monsters".

It's a pity that after a long time, when the man realized that this satisfaction left him only a long emptiness, he suddenly realized that in essence, the gods he admired were also born from monsters that the world would not tolerate.

What his teacher was carrying was not an enemy, but just a past that was too painful and tried to escape until both sides suffered.

That has always been an inseparable part of her.

Now, his teacher has made a choice, although the result may not be what he wants.

"Please……"

The gray-haired man sighed deeply and did not continue.

Please do come back.

He could only silently pray to the gods.

——If this is the final answer.

Songyang stopped a few steps away.

The members of the Shinsengumi have met her more or less face to face. Although the enemy is similar to her to the point of being carved out of a mold, no one will really confuse these two people who are completely opposite in terms of breath and expression. , and can't figure out the connection behind it.

"...Is this a negotiation?"

The knife from Kondo's waist was half drawn out, and the sharp light of the knife reflected his stern face.

So what if the negotiation is successful?How to comfort the dead comrades in arms?Where should the hatred whose homeland is destroyed be redeemed?The crimes committed by Xu must be punished, and no reason can be an excuse to hurt others.

That being said.

He turned his head to look at his wounded comrades, and finally heaved a long and difficult sigh.

"...Everyone, don't attack."

The morality they uphold should not be clouded by hatred.

——The crows of Naraku were repeatedly defeated by the night rabbits who joined the battle forcefully. Even if the blood of immortality flows in the veins, the over-defeated body will inevitably be unable to withstand high-intensity damage. In addition, the rampage of the dragon veins gradually calms down. The potency of undying blood is fading.

Under the interference of the alien star Alutana, even Songyang couldn't help breathing a little bit, and the place where the fragments were embedded in his heart felt a dull pain.

This is pain from which human beings cannot escape.

——Fate is also involuntary.

"Songyang!"

The panicked shouts of her silver-haired disciple were thrown far away in a direction she dared not look back.

Xu's blind eyes landed on Songyang emptyly, as if he heard the hoarse call of the silver-haired man, the corners of Songyang's lips were slightly curved, but Xu smiled coldly.

The knife in her hand flipped carelessly, with no intention of moving the blade forward, and her expression looked relaxed.

"Which side are you negotiating on?"

"I'm not here to negotiate."

"Then what are you here for? Do you want to see with your own eyes how this planet will be destroyed? Or do you want to see how the humans you love die one by one?"

"neither."

At this moment, the dragon's lair is continuously spewing out small bursts of energy, such as gorgeous and pure white light sprinkled on the desolate sea of ​​blood, scattered spots of light splashed on their identical long light-colored hair, and the subtle rays of light remained .

The distance between the two of them got closer.The twirling blade reflected the light green pupils in those eyes, like the first sprout of spring born on the barren land.

When will it be possible to overcome the icy winter and be embraced by the gentle embrace of spring?

The child who was called a monster thousands of years ago waited day after day, until she let herself fall into a dead end that ran counter to the whole world, and she was still waiting for the answer to appear.

"I just found out that we haven't had a peaceful face-to-face chat for so long."

In the past years, Xu used to indifferently ridicule the cowardice in her heart that she wanted to avoid, and she also instinctively rejected this unsettled wavering in her consciousness, and stubbornly regarded this part of herself as incompatible with the world. dark.

Before she knew it, she seemed to have also turned into the human being she hated.

"At that time, I refused to admit that it was actually me who was escaping, and I didn't dare to face the consequences of my retreat, and I threw the heavy burden on those children in my own words. And you have been watching me like this .”

Watching her mistakenly think that Oboro died and strongly blaming herself, watching her in a dilemma in the choice, watching her draw the cruelest scars in the lives of those children.

Empathizing with the pain that she was experiencing shook her, and at the same time, it also shook the emptiness in this body that first yearned for humans.

"So you're disappointed in me. I talked about saving myself, but I didn't even save myself."

I met those children and left them behind, leaving them in the world at a loss, overwhelmed by pain, lost themselves and the direction forward.

"If it was your despair that caused everything today, then this is the crime I committed, and I should be punished, so—"

Believe one last time, someone will reach out to us.

The shattered stones swept by the airflow brushed across Songyang's side face, and the cut wound was oozing blood. In the fly ashes of Alutana, the originally recovered regenerative ability was suppressed and almost disappeared.

Before the rampaging dragon veins subsided completely, Xu opened those bright red pupils.

Accompanied by the loss of dragon veins, the ground shook restlessly, and an attraction that could not be ignored came from the nearly dry dragon lair. Fragmentary stones passed by their sides, falling into the bottomless cave like meteors. In the dragon's lair.

The body was dragged forward uncontrollably, Xu looked at Songyang calmly, her eyes were neither sad nor happy, her long hair was fluttering wildly, the black robe was rattling, and the fingers holding the knife were slightly leaking. With great effort, the knife was also involved in the vortex glowing with light behind her.

"After all..."

One step further, her body will also be swallowed by this void.

"You are just my confusion for a moment, and you still love humans stupidly, a boring idiot."

Songyang sighed, took another step forward, and gave the unguarded body a belated hug.

Even monsters have soft bodies, warm heat, and hearts full of love.

"When I first met you, if I hugged you like this now, would the future be different?"

"A pointless question."

Xu Xu didn't push away the hug, but the arc of the corner of his lips was slightly mocking.

"Guys who haven't become human yet think they are born knowing how to love themselves?"

——It’s true. Only by feeling the love from those children can we learn to love others with a heart-to-heart, until this love is fed back to the other self who is not loved.

Love is such a soft and beautiful feeling.

"So, does it feel too late to love now?"

"Who knows."

In the sound of the biting wind, Xu's answer scattered into the air lightly like a dream, and the storm that surged up from the hole in the ground enveloped them. Taking a step back, the two fell into the radiant dragon's lair together. went in.

——This time, someone will definitely love you.

*****

The falling trend stopped suddenly in the next instant, and the arm was grasped in the palm of the hand with all its strength.

Song Yang struggled to face the storm and looked up, the bloody and messy face of the silver-haired man crashed into the hazy light and shadow in his field of vision.

He was half lying on the edge of the dragon's lair, his body was shaken by the howling cyclone, and the other hand was holding on to the protruding rock, because he was desperately trying to prevent himself from sliding down, his expression was contorted a bit ferociously, and his teeth were clenched. It was almost bleeding, and the voice was squeezed out through the teeth.

"...Songyang...you..."

The suction force spreading from the depths of the dragon's lair was still tightly grasping their bodies hanging in the stream of light, Xu's wrist was also firmly grasped by Songyang.The slowly surging dragon veins under Xu's feet exuded a faint fluorescence, climbing up from the cliff indistinctly, trying persistently to pull her and Songyang who was pulling her into the silent light.

Even though he was dragged by such a huge force that his shoulder joints were about to be dislocated, the silver-haired man never let go of his strength. The penetrating wound on his waist was dragged and split open by his movements, and the wound was bleeding violently. It quickly flowed along the surface of the rock that he was clinging to, and the bloody breath rushed towards his face.

Just looking at it with the eyes is excruciatingly painful.

"...let go...or Yinshi will..."

For thousands of years, I have never seen a human being who can survive after falling into the dragon's veins. Creatures born from the dragon's veins like her and Xu are at worst nothing more than being decomposed in the dragon's veins and then reunited. also--

No matter what, I don't want to lose any of my cherished disciples.

"...don't force yourself anymore..."

"...you guy..."

The sound of Yinshi's gnashing of teeth was pulled intermittently.The person in front of him was still wearing that extremely hateful, obtrusive smile, saying some irresponsible and self-righteous words, thinking about himself and trying to throw him away.

"Let me be self-willed one more time... promise me this request..."

"...Think...don't even think about it!"

The sticky taste of blood between the lips and tongue was swallowed by him along the base of the tongue, Gintoki shook his head vigorously, fighting the strength that surged up from the bottom of his heart, he dragged the arm that was almost torn in two to force upwards.

"... Ah Yin... Enough is enough..."

——I can only watch this person go in vain.

For so many years, I left without looking back after leaving my back again and again. The outstretched hand couldn't hold back anything, and I never had the courage to look forward.

"Ayin...I...will not agree to anything..."

I don't want to fall into such a hopeless nightmare again.

"At least this time... this time..."

Let me make the choice, Songyang.

——Xu's voice rang leisurely in her mind.

(Now I'm kind of bored.)

Songyang was startled, and subconsciously looked down at the person whose wrist she was holding.

The woman who looked exactly like her raised her face slightly, her eyes calm.

There were chaotic footsteps around, and the scattered members of the Shinsengumi gathered around when they saw this, and hurriedly dragged Gintoki, whose upper body was about to be pulled into the hole, in such a rude way that he bared his teeth and screamed.

"Hey, hey, are you tax thieves here to save people or murder! Be careful Ah Yin exposes you to the TV station!"

"At times like this, bear with it, Sakata-san."

Shinsen team leader Kondo's hearty laughter, and the rest of the team's whispering, cheering, and Gintoki's unbearable pain screams were all separated by the silence in Shoyang's eyes.

(Don't want to hear you dude say cheap words like love in hell.)

(so.)

——Songyang froze suddenly.

As if the body was invaded and manipulated by blood, he was forced to let go.

The woman in black fell into the dragon's veins on her back, and the light flooded over her chest like a tide, and her body was slowly swallowed, turning into tiny light spots and disappearing.

The residual breath sound is still in the ear.

(Prove it to my old self.)

—if the monster could have been redeemed from the start.

The author has something to say: In short, it's over like this... Xu Xu has also become a little Xu Xu
