"Gin, Maki, I thought I'd never see you again, Aru." Kagura was about to pounce on Maki with snot and tears, but was grabbed by the back of the collar by Sakata Gintoki next to him, Can only kick in place.

Kagura originally followed them weakly because he was too hungry, but he didn't expect that when he passed a tree, he suddenly stretched out a hand from inside and dragged her in without even having time to yell.

Waking up alone in the forest, Kagura searched all around but couldn't find them. He crouched on the ground clutching his growling stomach, and then met a person from this village, because he said he would eat it for himself. I followed, and I didn't expect to see Shimura Shinpachi, and Sakata Gintoki and Maki after dinner.

"Okay, Kagura, don't jump up too." Sakata Gintoki picked his ears with one hand, and put Kagura next to him in the other, and then looked at the young village chief, "Well, Chief Yoshioka, right? , we are all new here, can I ask you something?"

"I understand." Yoshioka Ryosuke smiled knowingly, "Everyone who just arrived here will ask."

"Then I'll go out first." Mori Chuanjing, who had been in a low mood since hearing that his sister entrusted them, suddenly opened the door and went out.

Yoshioka Ryosuke was a little surprised, but he just frowned slightly and then relaxed, and began to pour tea for them, and sighed after hearing about Morikawa Yi's situation and their purpose: "I see, what is Yi's commission?" , she forgot, no wonder..."

"I'm really sorry for letting you enter the Forest of Shenyin." Yoshioka Ryosuke said after a moment of silence, "But we won't go out."

"Why!?" Both Shimura Shinpachi and Kagura raised their voices incomprehensibly and asked.

"Anyway, that's it, let's go." Yoshioka Ryosuke didn't say any more, just lowered his eyelids and said calmly, "If you don't understand this place and the village, you can ask Jing."

In the end, he was almost expelled. Gintoki Sakata stared at the bewildered few people, scratched his curly hair in distress, and just turned around to go to the village, but saw Kyo Morikawa sitting On a big rock not far away, I don't know what I was thinking.

Shinaki followed Sakata Gintoki's gaze, and naturally saw the boy, and asked, "What are you doing?"

Only then did Mori Chuanjing come back to his senses, seeing them blinking, he was a little puzzled: "Why did you come out so soon?"

"I was kicked out, Aru." Kagura pursed her lips.

"I don't understand at all, that village head of yours." Shimura Shinpachi sighed.

Sakata Gintoki glanced lazily at Morikawa Kyo: "He asked us to ask you if we didn't understand."

"Huh?" Although Mori Chuanjing was a little surprised, he nodded, "I see."

After organizing the language, Mori Chuanjing began to explain to them: "This place is called the Forest of Shenyin, and you know the reason. As for the hands that pull you in, we call them the hands of God. Although it is also in the forest, But this is not a forest. We all think that this is not the original world. Every young person who goes to the "present world", that is, the forest in the original world, will be arrested. However, the hand of God is always at dusk. It is only when the devil appears."

Speaking of this, Maki remembered that it was indeed at dusk when they were captured.

"Isn't that right? Ah Yindu is already an uncle, and he is no longer a young man. Why was he brought in by Alu?" Kagura raised his hand and asked.

"Hey, I'm still young, don't I look like an uncle!?" Sakata Gintoki expressed dissatisfaction.

"It's the same everywhere, you idle around every day and become Madao's natural scroll ahead of time, you should have been dragged in together because you were clinging to Maki." Shimura Shinpachi squinted and said contemptuously.

"Yeah, the quilt has already smelled like an uncle, I really don't understand why Maki is with you, Aru, it can't be abducted?" Kagura said contemptuously with squinting eyes.

"You two...give me enough time!" Sakata Gintoki gritted his teeth, and then turned to Maki with a serious face and explained, "Maki, my quilt really doesn't smell like an uncle, if you don't believe me, you can go back and smell it, ah, Now I can smell it too." He said and moved himself up.

"No." Although Sanaki expressed doubts in his heart whether Sakata Gintoki's quilt was stained with the smell of an uncle, he still pushed him away calmly, "No one cares about you."

"The time of everyone who comes to this place will be stopped. You have seen it too. The people in the village seem to be relatively young, and the oldest one is the village chief." Mori Chuanjing twitched the corner of his mouth and interrupted them When I said this, my eyes were slightly gloomy, "The girl you saw before is called Ryoko, Yoshioka Ryoko, the sister of the village chief. They have lived in the village for a long time, and they seem to be from the Warring States Period."

"It must be more than 300 years old." Shimura Shinpachi widened his eyes.

Mori Chuanjing continued calmly: "Well, because there is no danger in the forest, food is plentiful, and we don't suffer from birth, old age, sickness, and death, so the number of people in Shenyin Forest is increasing, so the village chief proposed to build a village. Shenyin Village."

"That's all I know." Mori Chuanjing hesitated for a moment before asking, "That...my sister, Morikawa Yi, is she okay? Has she married and had children? How about her parents and the village?"

Hearing this, they couldn't help being silent, facing the slightly expectant gaze, they were speechless.

Seeing them like this, Mori Chuanjing also panicked, and asked tremblingly, "What happened to my sister?"

"She's not good at all." It was Sakata Gintoki who finally said, "I don't remember what happened when I disappeared, and... I also became a gray-haired old woman. As for your parents, so many years have passed , died naturally, and all the people in the village who could move away because of Shenyin have left, and the rest are those who are unable to move and are still waiting for your family."

After listening in a daze, Mori Chuanjing shook his body suddenly, and then slowly covered his face with his hands in pain, almost crying: "Why...it became like this..."

"So hurry up and get out, there are still people waiting outside." Sakata Gintoki turned to look at the girl he met, Yoshioka Ryoko, "Although I don't know why your brother doesn't want to let people from the village go out, But you are willing to stay here forever? Do you have the heart to let those family members wait outside for the rest of their lives? Do you have the heart that they don’t even have a person to support themselves?”

Yoshioka Ryoko stood in the same place silently. She originally thought that Jing's condition today was not good, so she came to take a look. She didn't expect to hear this, and after a long time, she opened her mouth with some difficulty: "I understand, I will talk to my brother. Said."

"Don't be depressed, at least your sister is still waiting for you outside." Shimura Shinpachi comforted the trembling Morikawa Kyo.

"Since your sister can go out, then you can go out too, why do you choose to stay here Aru?" Kagura felt very strange about this.

"People in the village don't know that they can go out. It's because my sister once left a note saying 'I want to see if I can go out' and never came back to guess. I have never been sure." Mori Chuanjing Instead, I thought of her vague uneasiness when she saw her sister for the last time.

"I said it's not allowed, so it's not allowed!" Yoshioka Ryosuke, who always had a smile on his face, looked terribly gloomy at the moment.

"But brother, let's forget about it. There are still relatives waiting outside in the village, and so is Jing." Ryoko Yoshioka looked at her elder brother sadly.

"Village Chief, please tell us how to get out." At this moment, pleading voices came from outside the door.

Yoshioka Ryosuke opened the door in surprise, only to see that the whole village was standing at his door, and the leader was Morikawa Kyo, next to the few new arrivals today.

"You guys!" Yoshioka Ryosuke was trembling with anger.

"I want to go home, I miss my parents." A girl who looked only thirteen or fourteen years old said tremblingly first.

"Me too. I miss my sister. My parents died long ago. My sister and I are the only ones at home. After so many years, I don't know how she is doing." A boy clenched his hands and looked at Yoshioka Ryosuke, "Mura Chang, you also have a younger sister, if it were you, you would definitely feel very uncomfortable, I want to go back, I really want to."

"We don't want to live this kind of endless life here, brother." Ryoko Yoshioka who followed him out said softly.

Seeing the sadness on everyone's face, Ryosuke Yoshioka clenched the bones of his hand holding the door frame until it turned white, and then he lowered his hand as if he was crushed all of a sudden: "Are you all blaming me? Haven't told you that you can go out?"

Everyone didn't speak, but looked at him with complicated eyes. They complained when they first found out, but the village chief has always been very kind to them, so they also wondered if there might be some reason.

Yoshioka Ryosuke was not surprised, but said dryly: "It's not that I don't want to go out, it's that we can't go out."

Hearing that everyone was taken aback, Yoshioka Ryosuke said a little tiredly: "You all know that time has been frozen after we came to the Forest of Shenyin, but that doesn't mean it's the same after we go out." After looking at the disapproving eyes of everyone, he smiled wryly, "Not only that, the time we stopped will come back to us after we go out, that is to say, if you have been here for 50 years, then you 50 years will pass from you immediately after you get out, and...even if you are still alive after the time passes, there are not many days left, the longer you stay here The less time you have left, our fate, They are all used as nutrients to supply the forest.”

Yoshioka Ryosuke slowly glanced at the astonished people: "Even so, do you want to go out?"

Hearing this, even Sakata Gintoki and Maki were extremely astonished, but this also explained why Morikawa suddenly became old, but in this case...

Then Mori Chuanyi will not live long! ?

Thinking of this, their emotions are very complicated.

"I want to go back." Mori Chuanjing said slowly but firmly, "Even if there is only one side, I want to see my sister again and know how she is doing with my own eyes."

"Me too……"

"Me too……"

Answering one after another, raising hands one after another, even though they knew that what awaited them was death, the people in the village still chose to go out heavily and firmly, and chose to return to their own world again.

Looking at the hands raised by everyone in the end, Yoshioka Ryosuke twitched the corner of his mouth bitterly: "I understand, if this is the case, then let's go, leave Shenyin Village, and leave this Shenyin Forest."
