[Gintama] Immortal

It was an ordinary knife.

The black sheath body and the silver-white straight blade are no different from the knife held by Naraku of Tenshoin.

Yae was eating a snack when the cold blade hit her throat.

She blinked her eyes, and the hand that reached the tea table was fixed in mid-air, and her fingertips almost touched the chubby red bean Daifuku.

"Don't move." A deep voice came from behind, and the tablet was stiff, "If you don't want your head to fall, don't make a sound."

It was very quiet outside the window, there was no sound of falling snow.

Naraku, who watched her movements day and night, seemed to have disappeared in this short gap, and no sound could be heard.

Breathing slowly, Yae was silent for a moment:

"If this is kidnapping... I can help."

Suddenly a little excited.

With a light cough, Yae maintained his original posture and sat motionless by the tea table.

"Let me lead the way, it will be much easier to go out from here. Let's cooperate?"

"...I said, don't move."

The skin of this body is very thin, and the man clenched the blade tightly, and bright red blood oozes from his neck.

Thin streaks of blood fell onto the skirt of his clothes, and Yae followed the man's strength and raised his head helplessly.

"It's not like I said, even if a gap is created, it's not so easy to escape from Amaterasu-in Naraku's lair."

Time is running out, and the other Narakus will notice the abnormality on the side of the academy at some point.

The other party obviously also considered this, and the blade resting on her throat was retracted.

...Don't, don't be what she thinks.

Thinking of the normal process of kidnapping, Yae quickly turned his head: "I'm very cooperative, let me stay awake, you absolutely..."

The last "more beneficial" didn't have time to say it, she only felt a pain in the side of her neck, and her vision went dark in the next moment.

……

The result is still to come to this set.

……

There was wind blowing in the face in the dark.

It was icy cold, wrapped in snow foam and ice slag, and the wind whizzed non-stop, as if it wanted to scrape a layer off a person's face alive.

Opening his eyes with some difficulty, Yae found himself moving quickly in the snow-falling forest.

The surrounding scenery was blurred, the world was turned upside down, and what came into view was the receding snow field. She reacted for a moment and realized where this feeling of dizziness and nausea came from.

Like a bag of rice, she is being carried on someone's shoulders.

The shoulders under her belly were extremely stiff, and the muscles were knotted like stones. The man was dressed in Naraku, the black monk's robe fluttered in the fast-moving wind, and the bamboo hat was lowered so that the face could not be seen clearly. From her point of view In the past, only the back of a strange head could be seen.

The cut between the throats had healed, and Yae tried to move, only to find that his hands were tied behind his back in a particularly standard way.

"The target is awake." A cold voice came from the side, it was the person who had cut her throat with a knife before.

Being carried on the shoulders, Yae turned his head somewhat inconveniently, and met the source of the voice.

She was dressed in the same Naraku, and she had seen the expression of stagnant water many times.

Eyes widened slightly, Yae was a little surprised: "Wuji?"

She named the two Narakus who replaced A, B, C and D.

Continuing the tradition, the older one is called Wuji, and the younger one is called Gengxin.

……Do not.

The moment their eyes briefly met, a strange intuition denied her previous judgment.

Not self.

But compared with her overwhelmed stomach at this moment, everything seemed unimportant.

"...Put me down." Yae said calmly, "Otherwise you will regret it."

The sky was a little dark, and the forest of fir trees and clouds stretched endlessly.This team is well-trained and obviously prepared, and they are rushing towards a clear direction in the complex terrain.

There was no response, and the man who was carrying her seemed deaf, and just kept going.

Yae was silent for a moment: "I'm going to vomit."

The team that was about to disperse suddenly paused, and several people stopped in unison.

"...Here we come." The person with the same face as Wuji warned in a low voice.

Yae: "..."

No, no, it's really coming.If you don't let her down, something full of mosaics will really come.

The rustling sound was like a swarm of bees flapping their wings. Yae felt the person carrying her suddenly speed up. The others stayed where they were and drew their knives out of their sheaths. A voice cursed softly, "Damn, so fast."

Yae struggled to prop up his upper body, but before he raised his face, a whistling sound like a whistle came through the air.

With a puff, the running figure carrying her suddenly rushed forward, and she was thrown out together with her. She landed on the snow and rolled out several times, barely stopping her momentum.

Naraku's pursuit force has arrived.

The two sides fought in the forest as the sky was getting darker, and the white snow was soon stained with dark red blood.

Suppressing the dizzy discomfort, Yae propped up his body and sat up. The figure dressed in Naraku was lying face down in the snow, with a Zen stick pierced through his back, as if he had been nailed there.

She lifted the man's sleeve and saw Naraku's tattoo on his arm.

Huh?

Frowning slightly, Yae turned the man's head under the shadow of the bamboo hat.

Like the forked branches of a tree, and like the tentacles of some kind of seaweed, the blue meridian climbed up from the neck, and bulged slightly under the face of that Naluo.

After the host's heart stopped beating, the blue veins were still active and greedily growing.

...was it parasitic?

Yae stood up, Wuji—no, it was some kind of creature parasitic on Wuji—oh, it’s so troublesome, let’s call him Wuji now.

"One more step forward, and I'll cut her neck open." The cold and sharp texture touched her neck again.

Hazy raised his hand, and Nai behind him took a step back, like a black shadow neatly stilling behind him.

Amaterasu's Naraku's pursuit team was extremely efficient, but the moment she deserted, the previous team had been wiped out, leaving only Wuji behind her.

As a kidnapped hostage, Yae was so busy watching the excitement that he almost forgot about role-playing.

She asked Wuji behind her in a low voice: "Is it too late for me to pretend to be afraid?"

"..."

got no response.

Both sides were expressionless, before the suffocating silence spread, Oboro spoke.

"what do you want?"

"All disappear to me." Wuji said coldly, "As soon as I find out that you are following, I will immediately chop off this guy's head."

As he said that, as soon as he pressed the blade, bright red blood oozed from Yae's previously healed wound.

"...I see." Oboro's expression was calm, and his movements were also very calm to put away the staff and knife.

Naluo behind him followed suit, and for a while, only the rustling of the blade being sheathed could be heard in the forest.

The mentally handicapped believe that Naraku won't do it if he says he can't do it.

But if you can run, you still have to try more.

"... Seriously, if you kidnap me, can't you work harder?"

The scenery around the forest kept receding, the icy wind howled in his ears, and Yae closed his eyes.

Losing a small team, the opponent's mood is obviously quite bad.

He smiled coldly, his face covered with blue veins was terrifying and ferocious.

"It would be nice not to be eaten by all the crows that came out of the nest, Miss Hostage."

"Oh, you don't pretend anymore?" Yae opened his eyes.

Although it was only a little bit different from the cold and stiff feeling before, this person's true personality began to emerge.

"Are you some alien parasite?"

Tianzhaoyuan Naraku's ability to collect intelligence has always been top-notch.

"Do you think I'll tell you?"

There was a breath of blood in the wind, and Yae noticed that a large group of blood was fainted on the opponent's lower back, but the opponent seemed to have no pain, and the speed of walking through the forest did not slow down at all.

"Forget it," she withdrew her gaze, "Have you contacted the follow-up troops responsible for the response? If not, you'd better confirm it now."

"……Oh?"

"Amaterasu-in Naraku has Amaterasu-in's Naraku's routine. For example, let the prey go first, gradually narrow the encirclement when the prey relaxes its vigilance, and finally drive it to a desperate situation and then suddenly close the net."

Squinting his eyes, Wuji said, "I have no reason to believe you."

Before he could finish speaking, the communication equipment in his arms suddenly rang out, emitting a piercing electrical noise.

His complexion changed slightly, Wuji took out the communicator, and the screen showed Naraku's figure flashing past in the firelight, the picture darkened suddenly, and then it was broken black and white.

Yae: "...well, you have reason to believe me now."

The buzzing sound of the Zen stick came from behind, she didn't need to look back, she also knew that Naluo's team was catching up.

The sky is completely dark, the forest at night is full of shadows, and the darkness is like sea water.

Cutting off all the back roads, just like hunting, Naruo's crows drove the prey that had nowhere to escape to the mountain.

On the top of the mountain is the shrine abandoned by Amaterasu-in Naraku many years ago. The shrine once enshrined the body of Amaterasu Omikami.

The burning torches reflected the overgrown ground in front of the shrine red, and the red light resembled the plankton in the deep sea, flickering and flickering in the dark forest.

Naraku, who was the first to catch up, was killed by Wuji. The corpses of those people were piled up on the steps, and he quickly lost his advantage. Surrounded by Naraku, he could only keep retreating, and was finally forced to face the shrine.

Yae sighed: "Didn't I say it at the beginning, it's not that easy to escape from the crow's lair."

The moment the other party raised the tip of the knife, Naraku all around rushed over.

The blade reflected the flames, the flames turned the blade red, the sharp and bright light streaked across the night, Yae stomped on the dust-covered wooden floor without changing her expression, and she didn't know where she stepped, the darkness suddenly opened a gap——

chuckle.

With a heavy muffled sound, the secret door opened on the floor closed again, leaving Naruto empty.

……

A faint light glowed in the dark tunnel, and the sound of footsteps one after another echoed on the empty rock wall.

Yae was holding an old oil lamp, and the person behind her said nothing, her veins crawled to her temples, her eyeballs were abnormally turbid, and she seemed to be separated by a thick film when she stared at people.

"Is there a limit to how long you can parasitize a body?"

Yae decided to find something to talk about.

The cloudy eyeballs glanced at her, and the other party sneered, and answered unexpectedly seriously:

"No living thing can last forever."

"That's right." Ba Dian nodded, and said, "The last time this secret passage was used was more than 200 years ago, and it has been in disrepair for a long time, which makes you laugh."

Assassination organizations like Amaterasu-in Naraku have experienced several regime changes, obeying the orders of those in power, but have their own independent system.

The practice of killing donkeys is not uncommon in political struggles. There are not a few people who use Amaterasu Temple to consolidate their power, and then fear this power and want to get rid of it.

There are secret passages everywhere in Tianzhaoyuan Naraku, some are used to kill the enemy, and some are used to help their own people escape, and some of them depend on the skill of recognizing the way and luck at that time.

Yae raised the oil lamp a bit higher, and the two forked mountain roads lead to different places. The end that the candlelight cannot reach is a hollow and deep darkness. If you listen carefully, there seems to be a rumbling echo.

"Do you want to go left or right?"

"Shouldn't I ask you this question?" Wuji tore off the blood scab on his abdomen, "You seem to be very familiar with this crow's lair."

Yae withdrew his arm nonchalantly: "Let's go to the right. If we die, we will be unlucky."

Wuji said coldly: "...When did we become 'us'?"

"Huh?" Yae turned around, "Aren't we kidnappers and hostages who support each other and help each other?"

"You want to escape that much?"

"Of course I do."

"why?"

"It's nothing, I'm tired of staying in this crow's nest."

"...You are not Kato Kyoko."

Yae continued to walk forward with the lamp in his hand. "When did I say I was Kato Kyoko?"

Wuji shrugged: "Okay, let's treat it as a cooperative relationship now, what should I call you?"

"...You can call me Yae," she paused, and she turned sideways, her pupils hidden in the darkness where the candlelight couldn't reach, and swaying shadows covered half of her face."It's the name I've used the longest," she said with a slight smile.

"..."

"How is it? Were you a little scared just now?"

Wuji looked at her expressionlessly: "Not at all."

"Hey, are you really not afraid at all? Don't you have the fear of not being able to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night?"

"No."

"..." Yae turned her head dejectedly.

The turbid eyeballs stared at her for a moment, Wuji raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said in a low voice:

"You want to escape because someone is not. For example, someone who is too timid to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night..."

Yae turned around, and the other party's voice suddenly stopped.

Holding an oil lamp in her hand, she took a step forward, the dim candlelight flickered silently on the ancient rock wall, and the dark shadow was like the huge wings of a crow tengu.

Bending her eyes, she smiled and said, "How are the Heavenly Daoists doing?"

Without missing the change in the other person's facial expression, the dispensable smile quickly faded from the other person's eyes, like a frozen lake covered with a thick layer of cold mist.

Fingers brushed the scabbard, Wuji put down his hand, his eyes were deep.

"What do you mean by that?"

"You are so eager to catch me, the missing experimental subject," Yae continued without changing his expression after a pause, "Isn't it because of the physical problems of the Heavenly Daoists?"

All human research related to the blood of the dragon vein is a brand new and huge blank.

The data in the laboratory is useless, and the top interstellar scientific researchers are helpless—if this happens, the Heavenly Daoists will naturally focus on her, the first fish who slipped through the net.

Why did Xu just take away this experimental subject?

What is he hiding?

...Could the clues that can stop their bodies from decomposing lie in this experimental subject?

"...you are really being played around by him." Yae suppressed a smile, "You never thought about how many things will be exposed if you act rashly? During the time we are looking for a way out, your boss may have already died. It was figured out by Naraku."

The other party's face became quite ugly.

"At least we will catch your special experimental subject."

"...What if I'm not some special experimental subject?" Yae asked him.

"What if I'm just an ordinary experimental subject, and Xu deliberately created the illusion that I'm special to lure the Taoist people into taking the bait?"

"Impossible." Wuji said coldly, "You are the only example of a brain-dead experimental subject successfully coming back to life."

"..." That was because of her own relationship, and had nothing to do with Xu's blood.

The cosmic liar.

Xuzhen is a cosmic level liar.

"...Even if you take me back and dissect me, you won't find anything different from other experimental subjects." Yae had a headache.

"To be honest, I have been waiting for someone to kidnap me for the past few years, but now I suddenly feel that it is not good to bother you so much."

With a strange look on her face, Wuji glanced at her: "You don't know?"

"Do not know what is this?"

"The Heavenly Daoists have been trying to capture you back these past few years, but they just failed." He said coolly.

"None of the people sent out came back alive, and they were killed without even touching your clothes. Do you think what happened today is the first time? You just didn't see the people who were killed by Naluo Just bones."

"..."

When he came back to his senses, Yae was dumb for a moment, and suddenly wanted to laugh for some reason: "The more you conceal the matter of this experimental subject, the more interested the Heavenly Daoists will be."

She really wanted to tell the other party honestly, as well as the Heavenly Daoists behind the other party:

No, she's nothing special, you're just being played.It's just that he was played very badly.

She thought so, and she did.

"Listen well," Yae closed her eyes and took a deep breath, "I'm just a live bait."

She once told "Xu" that to reassure the superiors, if there is no obvious weakness, just fabricate one.

Now, not only did he fabricate a weakness that didn't exist, but he also used this created weakness to pinch the weakness above.

...Picking up a rock to shoot yourself in the foot probably meant that.

She laughed at herself inwardly.

Although it was not the first time to lift a rock, it seemed to be particularly painful this time.

Even this time, she suspected that Naraku had deliberately released water under Xu's behest.

The Heavenly Daoists intentionally pushed Xu away, and he did the same.

...Everyone will count on it.

Yae paused word by word, telling the other party very slowly and clearly:

"I'm just a live bait that was thrown in front of you to lure the Taoists out of the cave."

Sorry to disappoint everyone.
