[Comprehensive] A dream of prosperity

Xiyue forgot about the scene of being kissed by Okita, walked down the stairs to the courtyard, saw that the situation was almost wiped out, she frowned slightly, turned and walked towards the back room.

The bloodstains that can be seen everywhere make the whole space look bloody and weird. Occasionally, I saw stumps on the ground, which made me helpless and sighed, until I searched a whole circle and found that all the captains of the team saw it, but only the missing one. After Fujiichi, the uneasiness in her heart gradually expanded.

After the Meiji period, the only person in the Shinsengumi that could be associated with Kenshin was Saitoichi!

She stopped him and asked him if he had seen Saito, and was told that when they came from Shikokuya and passed through the alley of Poden Court, Saito said to chase one and left the team, Yuzuki walked directly along That road ran out.

As the things around her gradually receded, she suddenly heard the sound of weapons intersecting.

Stepping on the Shuanghua line to a corner, passing by in a hurry, she saw a few scuffles, and the scene that Xiyue had expected and was not expected by Xiyue still made her raise her eyebrows after seeing it.

She saw Kenshin and Saito, whom she knew, standing side by side, fighting against the masked attack that surrounded them, struggling to meet them.Originally, she thought that she would see a swordsman vs. swordsman duel, but she didn't expect to be besieged. Suddenly, she found that Jian Xin was injured by the opponent and had a bloody gash on her body.

"What is it?" Saito swung his sword to block one's attack, looked at Xiyue, and frowned.

"Come and help us take care of the wounded. They have already dealt with them, and they came out to look for them if they didn't find them." Xiyue's words were half true, and Saito was sincere. Xiyue protects her range.

Xiyue didn't pay attention to Saito's movements, and only occasionally swept down Kenshin, who was somewhat abnormal, and controlled herself not too far away from him, releasing the killing intent on her body.

At this time, something was wrong with Jianxin, his eyes were dull and lacked the usual luster, with the depth and emptiness that penetrated into the black hole, and he only relied on conditioned reflex to deal with those attacks, not at all as sharp as usual after drawing his sword He was ruthless, but those masked men would unleash their attacks on him whenever they found time.

"Don't get close to him!" After working together for a few days, Xiyue just wanted to get close to Kenshin, but was held back by Saito.

"What's going on?!" Seeing Jian Xin covering his chest and opening his mouth in pain, she couldn't help crying out.

Saito was a little surprised seeing Xiyue like this, but he didn't answer her question, "Know him?"

"It's another apprentice of the master." Seeing Saito's expression, Xiyue faintly sensed why Kenshin was like this, and asked with a frown, "How did you meet him?"

"Before I came here, I saw a shadow flashing by and chased it out. It didn't take long to find this place under siege, so I came up to help." Yuzuki reluctantly accepted Saito's answer, but he was thinking in his heart if Kenshin was real. If he was fed and turned into Ruoshui like this, then why is his hair still the same red as before, and he didn't attack him at will?

Thinking of this, she couldn't help breaking away from Saito's hand, walked a few steps in the direction of Kenshin, and called out: "Xinta? Xinta, it's Yuzuki! Uncle Bigu is still waiting to go back to see him!"

As if hearing Xiyue's words, the originally slightly lowered head suddenly looked up, and a gleam of light flashed across a pair of red hollow eyes, but disappeared in an instant.His trembling body gradually stopped, and he stood up leaning on the knife, slowly posing in the posture of Feitian Yujianliu.

"Xintai——!" Xiyue, who originally thought that Jianxin had recovered, was startled by his sudden movement. After the opponent really attacked, he waved his sword helplessly to meet him.

Seeing that Saito wanted to come over to help, she hurriedly stopped him, "Don't hurt him!"

Saito froze when he drew his sword, his forehead slightly bulged, staring at the two fighting, he disapproved: "This is not going to deal with him at all, if it doesn't hurt him, how can he recover... let him calm down? "

"He responds to what he said." Xiyue replied in a deep voice, but the movements of her hands did not stop because of this, but every time she swung the knife, she did not have a murderous look and was more considerate. Instead, she was scratched on her body. Lots of small wounds.

Seeing that Yuzuki was talking to Kenshin and trying to wake him up, Saito was a little annoyed at the disadvantage, but he was afraid that joining the two middle schools of the duel would affect Yuzuki, so he had to stand with a knife and observe, preparing to separate the two at the right time Go up and resist yourself.

Unexpectedly, there are always some plans that cannot keep up with the changes.

When Kenshin's movements became more and more fierce, Xiyue's parry was a little loose. When Saito found an opportunity to rush up, Kenshin suddenly half-kneeled on the ground, stopped the attacking movement in his hands, and opened his lips. Together, he murmured, "...Yue...run..."

After being taken aback for a moment, Xiyue reacted first, her brows and eyes relaxed, "Xintai, are you feeling better?"

Because Kenshin's voice was too low, they all only heard him call Xiyue's name. When Saito frowned and felt a little strange, Xiyue had already stepped forward to help Kenshin, and he had no choice but to Follow up to see the situation.

Unexpectedly, the mutation happened in an instant.

"Puchi-"

**Penetrated sound.

Such a quiet and tumultuous night seemed extraordinarily clear.

"Yuyue!" Saito screamed, and before he had time to draw his sword, he wanted to cut off Kenshin's hand holding the handle, but saw that he withdrew his weapon directly, and with the dark red blood remaining on the sword, he went straight to attack. towards myself.

"This bastard—!"

Seeing the moment Xiyue fell to the ground, he usually swears with few words but restrained. This is the first time his heart beat suddenly accelerated and he felt infinite grief and anger. The hand holding the knife trembled a little. He wanted to see Is there anything wrong with Xiyue, but the other party will not let him go, he can only glance at Xiyue worriedly, and meet the other party's attack.

Xiyue who fell on the ground was lying when she said that it didn't hurt. Although she avoided the vital part of the pierced abdomen at the last moment, she would die if she continued like this without treating the wound.

The gurgling blood flowed out from the wound, and it only took a moment to dye her bathrobe bright red, blooming in the color of tumulus flowers under the dark night.There was no help at this time, so she had to save herself.She is not afraid of death, but if she dies like this, not only will Jian Xin blame herself after recovering, even Saito will, and she didn't even think about dying like this.

Reluctantly sitting up, she took off her coat, and cut the relatively clean inner underwear into strips of bandages with Frost Moon.

Naked | Most of her body was exposed, and she used the little wound medicine left on her body to spread on the wound, and wound herself up little by little with some difficulty, but she didn't realize that Shuangyue, who was put aside by her, was stained with her blood. It was devouring the blood stains on the blade bit by bit until there was no more blood stains on it.

Because Saitoichi was always worried about Yuyue, he was always so careless when dealing with Kenshin. When he saw Xiyue sitting up and moving, most of his heart was relieved a lot, but when he caught a glimpse of a piece of white snow from the corner of his eye, , a certain root in his brain suddenly broke, and his hand movements also froze.

He was negligent at this moment, but Jian Xin seized the opportunity and cut his back directly.

"Hmm..." The pain from the wound brought Saito back to his senses, he caught Kenshin's slash, and he withdrew his mind and focused on dealing with him.

Xiyue finished treating her wound, looked at the large red marks on the bandage and pursed her lips tightly, glanced at Saito who was at a disadvantage in the fight, she put on her clothes, picked up Shuangyue beside her, and touched the sword point Stand up slowly.At present, if she wanted to stop Jian Xin without hurting him, she could only use some of her recently recovered spiritual power.

"Boom thump... thump thump..."

The heartbeat from her hand made Xiyue stop suddenly, looked at her knife in surprise, and raised it in front of her, and saw the heartbeat getting faster and faster, as if something resonated with her inside, inexplicably , Xiyue's mind flashed the Tianxiang Longshan that Uncle Bigu taught her.

"Do you want to use this trick?" Xiyue murmured to Shuangyue. She was just asking casually, but she didn't expect that the knife actually slowed down the beating before, as if she agreed with her statement.

Xiyue wondered what was going on with this knife, but she also believed in it because she was used to seeing strange things in this world.

She put her left hand on her aching abdomen, thinking that if she moved her body too much, the injury would be hard to say, but at this moment, seeing Saito being suppressed by Kenshin, she couldn't ignore it.

She stepped forward with the knife, and every time she took a step to touch the wound, her heart would suddenly tighten. She clenched the handle of the knife which had recovered its smooth beating. Xiyue watched the two fight intently. When making a fierce downward slash, he stepped forward suddenly, raised his sword and blocked the blow with the dragon hammer dodge.

"What are you doing! Those who are injured don't move around!" Saito looked at Xiyue's desperate actions, and lost his usual composure. Even if she came to help him, he didn't want someone who was seriously injured to help him!What's more, he wants to protect her!

"We need to use Feitian Yujianliu's swordsmanship to deal with him." With Xiyue joining, Saito felt a lot easier, but it didn't mean he was willing to let Xiyue do this. "Come and deal with him, if you can still go, find someone else."

"No!" If they find others, then Jian Xin will definitely be killed by them!

"Why are you so stubborn!" Saito tried his best to let all of Jianxin's attacks fall on him, and swept away the bright red overflowing from Xiyue's abdomen, wishing he could kill him at this time, but he thought that this was Xiyue's senior brother, My heart felt a little dull again.

"There is not much time to last, but cooperation is needed." Xiyue smashed into the ground with a powerful slash, shattering the ground and hitting the heart of the sword with a stone. There is a second between attacks, if you want to hit him with Tianxiang Dragon Flash, maybe... maybe this move can stop him."

Saito frowned, a little disbelieving, but now that he was facing such a stubborn person, he couldn't directly knock him out, so he had no choice but to nod in agreement, his eyes changed and he charged forward with the knife.

Xiyue Li breathed a sigh of relief, holding the handle of the knife with both hands, and set up the posture of Tianxiang Longshan, until Saito suddenly shouted "It is now!" A gust of airflow, after sucking him in by the vacuum created in front of him, borrowed the ultra-centrifugal force of the rotation to swing a second blow.

A flash of white light made Saito suddenly close his eyes.

When he opened his eyes again, he was shocked to find that there was only a comatose Kenshin on the ground in front of him, while Xiyue was nowhere to be found.

On the other side, when Hijikata Toshizo, who was still dealing with the follow-up of Ikeda House, was about to close the team, he found that Saito had not come back, so he called someone to ask about the situation, and sent a few to look for him, and asked them to carry some seriously injured seniors on a stretcher. One step back to the village.

"Boss, why are you laughing all the time?" Zuo Nosuke, who was escorting Okita and the others back first, looked at the one on the stretcher strangely, with a bit of surprise on his originally handsome face, "It's a bit strange today."

Chong Tian smiled, put one hand over his forehead, half-hid the smile on the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, and said lightly: "It's just a sudden wish, so I'm a little happy."

"Oh, what is it?" Zuo Nosuke was curious.

"Well~ Is there a girl you like?" Okita asked suddenly, "If there is, I can find someone to accompany me, so that I won't be lonely in these limited years."

Zuo Zhisuke's eyes flickered slightly, and he murmured: "I like it?... Hehe, maybe there is..."

Okita looked at the upward curve of the other's mouth with a smile, closed his eyes, and gently stroked his lips with his hand, as if there was still a faint fragrance of peach blossoms left in it, which would last for a long time.

If someone had told him in the past twenty years that he would fall in love with one when he had not fulfilled his ambitions and beliefs, he would have laughed and told the other party 'how come? ', but only now did he realize that that feeling was uncontrollable, just for a moment, it seemed that he was doomed in the dark, and he was doomed to fall in love with it and sink into it.

His blue eyes were fixed on the curtain in the sky, and the corners of his lips were smiling, recalling the previous scenes.

After returning to the village and being fed medicine, Okita waited for the familiar figure to appear, but finally waited for Saito to come back with a message, he sat up instantly and rushed to the hall, did not see Yuzuki, but saw All of them looked solemn.

"What happened?! Where's Xiyue!" He blurted out, feeling nervous, and snapped his fingers into the wooden door.

"Chief... calm down first." Seeing Okita, Kondo frowned worriedly. After looking around the crowd, he was about to speak when Saito cut him off.

"Xiyue's senior brother was fed for some reason and became Ruoshui out of control. When we fought him, she was injured... She was injured a little bit. Later, after using their style of swordsmanship, a burst of white light suddenly appeared. gone..."

"Clarify! What is missing! How can it be possible to not see!" Okita took a few steps and walked in front of Saito, grabbed his collar and pulled it up, with a ghostly face, "Why don't you protect her with her! She How many injuries did you suffer? Did you just watch her disappear, what nonsense!"

"Chief, calm down." Seeing Okita's appearance, Hijikata couldn't help but say, "Saito said that at the time of the sudden situation, the white light also flashed by, and then disappeared directly on the spot. His fault."

Okita pursed his lips, let go of his hands, and sat down a little dejectedly, with his head lowered, showing no expression.

"You're right, you didn't protect him well, you can do whatever you want, no complaints!" Saito said sincerely as he sat upright.

Okita didn't reply to Saito's words, raised his head, faced the crowd, and said firmly, "If you don't believe her, she's gone, go find her!"

Kondo shook his head, "I have been sent to look for it, and I found that my physical condition is not good, so I must stay in the village to rest!"

Okita was silent for a moment before asking, "Where is her senior brother?"

After looking at each other for a while, Tu Fang spoke again: "The room she lived in before."

Okita nodded at the time and left the hall.

When Jian Xin woke up the next day, he was in a trance for a moment, and he seemed to have done something bad when he lost control!

"Xiyue!" Sitting up suddenly, he looked at his hands, the voice coming from his ear made him tense instantly, and subconsciously grabbed the knife at his waist, but it was in vain.

"Great, finally woke up?"

"Who is it!? Where is this place?" Jian Xin coldly glanced at the girl in front of him.

"It's called Xuecun Chizuru. This is the settlement of the Shinsengumi. It got out of control and was brought back by Mr. Saito." Chizuru smiled friendly and said, "I heard it's Xiyue's senior brother?"

"Where's Xiyue!?" Ignoring where he was now, his first concern was Xiyue's situation. He seemed to have done an unforgivable thing yesterday!

Qianhe looked at the person in front of him and was a little hesitant to talk about Xiyue, but he didn't expect a voice from behind him to ask her to answer his question, "Xiyue is gone..."

"What are you talking about! How is it possible!" Jian Xin immediately stood up from the bed, looked at the one who was leaning against the door with arms crossed, and frowned, "Did you hide her!"

"Hey! She has hands and feet, how could they be hidden by you!" Chongtian Bise sized up Jianxin, and then said slowly, "It's really gone, it disappeared last night, and we haven't found it yet. " Seeing Jian Xin's worried expression, his heart froze, he let go of his hand, turned around, and said to him with his back: "Xiyue won't let you get hurt, so, get out of here..."

Chizuru was surprised, originally thought that the people in the group would keep this, but did not expect that Okita would let him go.

Jian Xin's purple eyes narrowed slightly, he pursed his lips and remained silent for a moment, grabbed the knife not far from the bed, and said lightly: "I will go to her, no matter how long it takes... I will remember this time, goodbye!"

After all, leave here.

Okita stared at Kenshin's back, darkened his eyes, raised his head suddenly, and stared at the blue sky.

Moon, where did you go...

The author has something to say: I came back too late yesterday, and I didn’t finish coding this chapter until after 1:[-]. Because there were too many, I had to wait until noon today to finish coding, so this chapter is owed yesterday.There is another chapter tonight, I hope everyone will forgive me.The following is a small episode of Okita Souji.

Spoiler - Okita Souji

It has been more than a year since I came to Shinsengumi, and my life in this year has been much better than I imagined.

Happy, sad, painful, confused.

Waving the sword in his hand, he opened the path of light that he wanted to achieve.

However, this road is not as easy as imagined. If you take a wrong step, you will fall into the darkness and turn into a Shura to kill.

I know that I have actually strayed from that path, but I don't regret it, even if I am called the Mibu wolf, even if I become a murderer, it doesn't matter, because as long as I can protect the most important person to me, the most important companion , I would rather turn into a ghost and become Shura in the dark night.

Meeting that important person to me was perhaps the most beautiful moment of my life.

The first encounter seemed a little short, but it lived in my heart forever.Just because on that spacious street, everyone avoids and is afraid of insulting us, but there is only one person, like a burning peach blossom, standing elegantly on one side, staring at us with exploration and appreciation.

The moment they looked at each other, I saw the slight surprise in her eyes, and the clear friendship after that.I was thinking at the time, this person must be a person who is elegant and somewhat indifferent.

Staring at the figure of the other party curling away, I laughed happily. For the first time, I was looking forward to meeting again on the street in the future.

I was looking forward to it, and even my mind was a little dazed. After many days, I would unconsciously look for that figure in the crowd every time I went on patrol, but I never saw it again.

The resulting loss caused a burst of unspeakable loneliness in my heart, but I knew my position and responsibility, so that small thought was buried in the deepest part, and I was still laughing and joking on weekdays, but always in my spare time, Sitting in the courtyard of the village, looking at the cherry blossoms in the garden, recalling that delicate face.

When I was able to treat her calmly, I suddenly met her in men's clothing on the street.

Without the elegance and beauty of that day, her expression was condensed with a momentum from the inside, and she locked my eyes for a moment. I was surprised by her sharpness and movements, but it was funny when she heard it. When the word 'Xinsengumi' came to the word, he immediately dropped the knife in his hand and ran out.

After explaining to my teammates, I went to chase the little wild cat alone.

It's strange to say that although I think her elegant body complements each other, it's rare to appreciate her proud body even more. After chasing her for more than half of Kyoto and finally blocking her in an alley, I couldn't help laughing , It wasn't until I forced him out with the words 'kill you' that I saw that aggrieved but helpless person followed him back to the village.

The swordsmanship is a bit immature, but it can be seen from the attacking style that the school is not bad. If given time, she might become an excellent swordsman.After Kondo let her go, I knew that if two people were destined, they would meet again.

So, on the day of the Garden Festival, when I saw her in the blood mist under the dark night, she was fierce and bloodthirsty, beheading the "failed product" mercilessly under the knife, my heartbeat couldn't help speeding up.After I uttered my voice, when I suddenly saw those hollow and blind eyes, I suddenly felt that this moment seemed a little different.

The moment she fell down, apart from worry, I was more distressed.

After that, she was "detained" in the village as a matter of course. When I went to see her master, I saw a different her again. She was coquettish, smart, sincere, and more real. There was a bit of envy and hope.

If one day I realize my ideal, I am willing to give up everything and live this idyllic life with her.

In the days that followed in the village, she gradually integrated into everyone, became friends with Qianhe, and occasionally quarreled with herself. After getting along with each other like this, I thought it was a dream.

But suddenly coughing up blood one night made me realize that life is so short and happiness is so rare.

After I found Dr. Asaoka and was told that if I didn’t cultivate myself, the disease would continue to get worse and even die soon. I just asked him to prepare some medicine for me to control it first.

That night, I have been sitting not far away staring at her figure, just watching quietly.

For a moment, I had the urge to take her away regardless, but I vetoed it the next moment. How could I let go of my beliefs?And how to let go of the companions who once fought side by side!

But I didn't expect the second illness to happen so quickly. The moment I fell down, I had a feeling that my life was about to come to an end. When I saw the worried face in front of me, I suddenly wanted to have a little intimacy with her contact, so that after I leave, I won’t have any regrets.

As imagined, her lips had a sweet smell, and there was also a faint fragrance of peach blossoms from her body.

Her breath filled my nostrils, making me feel that this moment is the happiest existence.

Taste it, stop it.

The first time I like someone, I don't know how to grasp it, but what is certain is that I will cherish and love her, just like the oath I once swore in front of my mother's grave—if in this limited life When I meet a girl I like, I will definitely not let her suffer the same fate as her. It is precious and important.

The wait after being carried back to the garrison filled me with a feeling of happiness, but when I heard that Saito had brought back a person, all the happiness suddenly shattered into pieces, and I rushed out regardless of the pain.

If she gets hurt, I will blame myself, if something happens to her, I will feel bad!

However, what I never thought about was that she would disappear?When I heard such news, I just felt that the blood in my whole body stopped flowing in an instant, as if something broke out from the bottom of my heart and took away all the strength in my whole body.

When I scolded Ye Yi, why wasn't I scolding myself?

That night was the most difficult moment for me. I vomited blood again and my body finally couldn't bear the load. I fell down beside Senior Brother Xiyue's bed, and when I was carried back to my bedroom by Zuanosuke, there was only a hollow wound left in my heart. and hesitation.

He stared at the roof in a daze with his eyes open, and stayed up all night.

After a night of recuperation, my health improved a lot. I went to Senior Brother Xiyue's room early in the morning. I wanted to ask some questions, but when I saw the other party's sharp eyes and those purple eyes, there was a kind of love for Xiyue. When I was feeling emotional, my heart felt a bit inexplicably depressed, and I seemed to have the urge to vomit blood.

Depressed and uncomfortable, I told him that Xiyue was gone, but I finally let him leave the garrison, because I knew from Saito yesterday that Xiyue cherished this person, so no matter whether he was related to the change of water or not , I don't want any unexpected situation to happen to him, so as not to worry Xiyue.

Because I believe as firmly as he does that one day I will find her, no matter how long it takes or how much effort it takes.

So, Yue, you must wait for me!

——end

The end of the curtain——
