[Gintama] Immortal

She had not seen him again for more than 200 years.

It was inappropriate to say that they were separated, the two met by chance at first, and the child who was tortured by the villagers as an evil spirit was obviously a human being in her view, except that the wound healed faster and his personality was a bit withdrawn and weird, his thin appearance was similar to that of a human child. Cubs do not differ in any way.

That child is even more harmless than a long-raised livestock, and will only be led meekly to the place of slaughter. When the scorching blood gushes out, nothing will flow from the dry eye sockets.

"Run!"

"Run."

Never come back.

The ancient shrine was burning in the night, and the billowing smoke pierced the dark night sky. The scorching flames should have burned away all traces of his escape, and the gray embers should have buried the suffering and torture of the past.Yae originally thought that just a few days of getting along with each other was the whole thing between them, but after more than 200 years, when they reunited at the end of the Kamakura era, the criminal wanted by the court stood in the middle of the battlefield, The dark red blood drops fell along the blade, and shattered into a shape that could never go back.

It wasn't until that moment that she realized clearly:

...Ah, this person really can't die.

Even if the body is burned to ashes, the bones are crushed to powder, and the flesh and blood are cut into pieces, this person will not die.

"I told you that there is no end to human greed."

Xu sighed softly, pretending to be sympathetic: "Even without my intervention, their desires will lead to their own destruction one day."

He caressed the side of her neck. The position where the main artery should have been was covered with fine spar, which faintly emitted a faint light as the blood flowed.Reflecting the dim light in the room, those crystal blocks are like the hard scales of amphibian beasts, and like flowers blooming in the dirty mud, growing contradictoryly on the white skin.

"Look, I believe that human beings will become like this." Xu Xu evoked a smile, but the smile didn't reach his eyes, and the remaining heat dissipated halfway, becoming cold and indifferent.

Night pressed down from the end of the sky, dusk was squeezed long and dragged in through the panes.The room was filled with strange lights and shadows. In the semi-darkness, the outside sounds seemed to disappear. Yae leaned against Xu's chest and did not speak for a long time.

He didn't seem to realize that she was deserting.Maybe it was because no one had ever done it before him—people often don't even have the space to blink when faced with death.

Yae pressed against his heart and listened quietly.

—Ah, it was the sound of a beating heart.

Familiar with the same.The voice that has been with her for 500 years has not disappeared during this period.

"Painful?" Xu Xu's tone was more like saying "Do you want to get revenge?"

He earnestly said: "I can help you."

Agitation, expansion and contraction, the heart in the chest repeats the same action, the low and steady sound hits the eardrum, the rhythm is fixed like a pendulum made of flesh and blood.

A heart that has been beating continuously for 1000 years—

No, what is beating in the opponent's chest is a substitute made of crystal stone.

The mothership of the Allied Forces of Heaven and Man fell to the earth wrapped in flowing fire, and the ruins of Edo overflowed with the river of light from the dragon veins. It was a magnificent scene as if it were the end of the world.

Xuzhen's heart has already melted into the dragon's veins.

Yae suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed Xu's front lapel.

"You have to hide."

The drowsy consciousness seemed to be suddenly clear, she didn't know where the strength came from, she got up all of a sudden, and pressed Xu's shoulder tightly.

"You are no longer immortal, and Naraku of Amaterasu Institute is long gone." She said hurriedly, "What do you think about appearing so rashly? Do you know that if you are still alive, you are an out-and-out space class war criminal?"

After the Tianyuan Sect was wiped out and Xu's elements were wiped out, everyone thought he was dead.The culprit who caused the war of that year deserved what he deserved, and he went down to the underworld happily.If it wasn't like this, if it wasn't for believing that Xu was dead, dead enough, even with the help of the new government to forge his identity, Songyang wouldn't be able to survive.

It can be said that now the whole Edo—no, the whole universe—everyone regards him as a heinous sinner.

And he is.

The crimes that Xu committed back then are too numerous to write down, even if he is now wanted by the whole universe, it is only natural.

Yae felt a headache.Compared with her headache at this time, the burning pain that seemed to be pouring iron into her bone marrow before was suddenly nothing.

Yae grabbed Xu's kimono and crumpled it. If she calmed down, she would realize how incredible it was that her hands were still attached to her body.

Xu Xu's expression was a little weird.

It seemed to be a mocking expression, but it seemed to carry a little other meaning.

He squinted his eyes, and his voice could not tell the emotion: "Is it finished?"

Yae regained consciousness belatedly, and let go of her hand.

"Do you see where this is?"

There are six stacks of quaint Japanese rooms, the lamps in the corner have not been lit, there is no blue vase filled with platycodon and beard branches in the empty alcove, and the bookshelf stuffed with books and student homework is nowhere to be found.

This is not a private school.Yae's intuition told her that the two were not even in Edo.

It was too quiet outside the window, if it was normal, she should be able to hear more voices.The streets of Edo are always lively, but the silence that surrounds it obviously belongs to the farther mountains.

There was a gap in the paper door, and she looked over reflexively.

"Master." The strange and young voice said, and handed in a bowl of fried black soup on a tray.

As if out of respect for the people in the room, from the beginning to the end, the owner of that voice did not show his face.

"Is Madam Ling feeling better?"

He glanced at her falsely. "Thank you." He said to the people outside the door, his gentle voice seemed to come from Songyang's mouth, the soft tone and the half-smile expression on his face formed a strange contrast, "I will convey your condolences."

The sound of rustling footsteps disappeared, and the room became quiet again.

The dim light of the eight-point starting lights illuminates the small Japanese room.She was sure that the place where the two were staying was a brigade, and the location was quite remote—she didn't recognize the guy's accent just now.

Xu brought the bowl of black concoction to the low table in front of her, and Yae hugged her knees. "Can't you think of a better reason?"

She decided not to think about how she lost consciousness and fell asleep for a few days, and what happened during these few days, and then she opened her eyes and found that she was staying in a cage in a remote mountain with the big devil who almost destroyed the world .

Yae looked warily at the absolutely bitter black concoction in the bowl: "What else did you make up?"

"Did I say something wrong?" Xu spit out two words lightly, "... madam."

An inexplicable chill ran up his spine, and there was a smile on Xu's face.

"Is it fun to play a human game?"

Yae almost nodded and said it was fun, but the desire to survive in her heart stopped her, just like when she asked "Where did Song Yang go?"

She stretched out her little finger and carefully touched the edge of the rough porcelain bowl.

"You know the meds don't do much for me."

Xu Xu took out the knife, and carelessly stroked the sharp blade against the protruding blood vessels on his wrist.

"Wait—" Yae pressed Xu's hand, but it was a step too late, bright red blood seeped from between his fingers, dripping into the black bowl, the smell of blood in the air mixed with the bitter smell of medicine Together, they are tightly entwined like vines, making people dizzy.

"I...I don't want your blood." She resisted the feeling of stomach churning, the ground under her feet was spinning, and it was constantly circling along an invisible axis.

Pain relievers are addictive.

"Really." Xu stroked her cheek, not surprisingly, the skin touched by his fingers was hot.

He whispered, "It's hard to feel the two kinds of Altana's power biting in your body, isn't it?"

Dragon blood can relieve her symptoms, but it can't solve the problem from the root.As long as the dragon veins of the earth do not return to normal for a day, she will continue to suffer.

Yae remained silent.

Xu fed her a little blood before, and now the effect is slowly fading from her body.The pain climbed up the tiny nerve endings, dragging her back joint by joint, into the painful and scorching mud.

Xu Xu rolled up the wet and broken hair around her cheeks, and gently put her back behind her ears.

"Yae," he said in a coaxing voice, "I'm here to help you."

The sweetness of blood is close at hand, caressing her earlobe, cold fingers follow the arc of her cheek to her chin.

"Drink it." He said softly, his slightly closed eyes were dark red.

Yae took a deep breath, and then, she grabbed his hand.

Push him away.

"Your blood, you'd better keep it for yourself." Yae leaned against the wall behind her, her voice trembling, but there was no wave in her eyes.

"Your physique is different from before, so you can't let blood casually."

The smile on Xu's lips disappeared.

He looked at her expressionlessly, without an empty smile to cover up, his expression was desolate and indifferent, his pupils were as dark as the face of an abyss that couldn't fall into the light.

Yae closed her eyes and let out a soft sigh.

"It may have been a curse before, but for you who are no longer undead—your blood is something that can protect you."

She opened her eyes and raised her head: "so, I don't need it."
