The Chapter of Bo Yinggui Autumn - "Malicious" Tampering

At a loss for two seconds, she frantically rushed towards the fire.Everyone, don't worry!

Why is this so?She clearly doesn't remember such a thing happening!Could it be that she was really punished for changing the past without authorization?Now she has lost the tools to survive here, if she loses the Shinsengumi again, how can she survive?Life is better than death is perhaps the most suitable way to describe that feeling, the guilt of killing all the important people, but living safely.

Regardless of the pain in her feet and the fatigue in her legs, she was getting closer and closer.Everything is true, and the village is engulfed in a sea of ​​flames.Because it was night, no one noticed. A few sporadic people hid from a distance to observe the fire, and shouted for someone to put it out. "If anyone is going to be punished, it should be me! Why should this be!" She rushed in.Everyone, where are you all?Zuozhi, where are you?

She called everyone's name out loud, but no one answered.Regardless of the scorching heat and choking smoke around her, she first searched for people in several rooms with smaller fires.Accidentally saw the well in the courtyard and the quilt hanging out, and she regained her sanity. She took a while to wet the quilt, put one on her body, and covered her mouth and nose with the other, and continued to walk deeper. go.

The first room I went to was Zuo Zhi's room, which was empty.Feel a little relieved, as long as you don't see anyone, there is still hope.She then went straight to Okita's room.His illness has deteriorated recently, and he has been bedridden for a while, and he is the most dangerous person.However, he wasn't even in the house either!Are you going to a party?

Thinking of the banquet, she hurried to the meeting place, where they will have the banquet tonight.It's not very likely, but it's good to check.She insisted on supporting her exhausted body with mental strength, and ran to the assembly hall in the sea of ​​flames. It was a mess. Although it was not very clear, the wine tables had not been put away, and there was no one there.She was a little dizzy, as if she didn't know what to do next.The mind is still working: if the things haven't been put away, the fire broke out in the middle of their party.But judging from the intensity of the fire, it didn't look like it had been burning for a long time.The worst burnt place seemed to be near the kitchen.Everyone is gone, did they all escape?If so, that would be great.At least, I won't be the culprit.

Thinking of this, there seems to be a feeling of relief.The nerves that had been tense all the time were torn apart by this thought.She couldn't feel the control over her body anymore, and she threw herself forward and fell to the ground.Before she fainted, she seemed to see Zuo Zhi running towards her.She laughed at herself again, she always saw phantoms all day long, maybe she became short-sighted.Then, he lost consciousness.

Someone is calling her.Keep calling her name.Even if you want to take a good rest, it's a troubled world.The old man who fell down appeared inappropriately and said to her with a smile: "Look at the moon tonight, it's really ominous! I've got what I want."

"Old man, it's mine, give it back to me!" She wanted to say that to the old man, but couldn't open her mouth.Then Hongyue appeared in front of her eyes, and she also understood the uneasy instinct, which turned out to be a reaction to the fire in the village.It would be great if I could come back sooner...

"Aya Azusa!"

"Huh?" Opening his eyes, he actually saw Zuo Zhi. "cough……"

"Don't talk. The fire here is considered small, and the front door can't go out. Wait for everyone to recover before going out." Zuo Zhi stroked her head resting on his lap. "Silly girl, why are you rushing into such a big fire!"

"Are you all right? You're all right...it's great..." She heard the voices of other people around her, raised her head with difficulty, her eyes widened in surprise but excitedly.This is her room, and everyone is here.It's just that some people are awake and some people are unconscious. "This is... what's going on?" People who shouldn't be here are there.

"Escape first and then explain to you. In short, if the deputy chief and the others cannot wake up, it will be too difficult to take so many people out." Saito remained calm even at this moment.

"It would be great if I still have my kit..." In the medicine box, there is refreshing wind oil essence. If you are a comatose person, you might be able to try it.Just why are they in a coma?

"What do you mean? The kit is gone?" Zuo Zhi asked.

"Well, it was stolen on the way back just now..."

"What are you talking about, isn't this your kit?" Chongtian picked up the things on the ground sickly, and threw them towards Lingzi.

Zuo Zhi caught it for her and handed it to her.It's really her kit, at least the appearance is exactly the same!At least she hadn't seen another bag of this size and style, but in her room?Could it be that she remembered wrongly and didn't bring it with her when she went out today?Impossible, obviously went to the doctor and used a kit.

After taking the kit, she put her hand in.But his heart turned cold, completely opposite to the scorching atmosphere around him.This should indeed be in her bag, because the space inside is much larger than it looks.But inside it was so empty.The same is true of her mood at this time.Why? !

At this moment, a strange wind blew.This is in the house, how can there be wind?But before they could even think about it, the wind had already blown the door open, and the fire outside also swept towards them because of the sound of the wind. "Ah!" The fire had already spread outside the room, the beam of the door was crumbling, and it almost hit Zuozhi who was the closest to the door, but at the same time Lingzi exclaimed, he had already reacted and dodged to a deeper place in the room up.

Can't wait any longer now, there's no time left.Even if you recite them one by one, you have to recite them out.Ling Azusa slapped Hijikata in the face, as if reacting a bit, she asked others to come over and help.At this time, Okita's already fragile respiratory tract and lungs were affected by the smoke, and he coughed heavily.Ling Zi got up and ran towards the direction where he was, and immediately she was one step away from him, but she found that she couldn't move.It's not the feeling of being exhausted and exhausted just now, but that the mind is very clear, but it is impossible to direct its body.She struggled to move, Okita's condition was serious, and the fire couldn't take them any longer.She heard Zuo Zhi calling her name suspiciously behind her, and after a few times, probably because she didn't respond, Saito Heisuke also called out.How much she wanted to respond to them, but she couldn't turn her head, she couldn't even make a sound.

"Boom!"

The door frame of the room has been destroyed by the fire, and the outside scene can be clearly seen from the room.It seemed like hell, the whole village was engulfed in a sea of ​​flames, and from the corner of Lingzi's only movable eyeball, she saw the bright moon in the sky, a frightening red moon.

She suddenly realized that the appearance of the moon was exactly the same as the abnormal celestial phenomenon when she came here. "I got it!"

"Huh? I can talk?" She did hear her own voice, and she could turn her head to see them.Only, they seemed unresponsive to her improvement and deaf to her voice.

Almost immediately, she found herself seemingly lifted off the ground, being pulled by an upward force that defied gravity. "What! What's going on?!" She had never been so terrified, even more terrified than she was about to be burned to death with everyone.She saw her own body.

It turns out that it is only the soul that returns to normal?Or, is everything as it should be now?After she pulled out completely, that body fell limply.She couldn't feel the heat anymore, so all she could think was: "I can really add fuel to the fire..." Because "she" also "fainted" while there were still a few unconscious people who needed care. "Are.Zuo Zhizheng hugged her worriedly, and even the sick Okita walked over with concern, holding back his cough.Unfortunately, now she can't feel anything.That should have belonged to the care she received.

She is not reconciled.Whether I will return to my original life or become something else, it doesn't matter now.She just asked not to drag them down.It was obviously because of his own fault that he became like this, but in the end he escaped.Even though they didn't know what happened to her, she still screamed out with all the strength of her soul: "I'm here!!!"

Although she resisted approaching towards the sky, she was still rising slowly, and now she had reached the roof.Her cry could not reach those who were in danger, but still wanted to save her.Give up... I lost to fate, who let me tease fate, always want to change the past, always feel that I am omnipotent.The reality was, she couldn't do anything about it.

Frustrated and guilty, even mixed with some anger at fate, she stopped resisting.If it wasn't for her, if it wasn't for her, maybe they would live and die according to their destiny, but at least they wouldn't die so meaninglessly.And what she did may make all the traces of these people disappear in the entire future, not to mention the sung songs through the ages, I am afraid that no one will know about them at all.

Tears flowed out unsatisfactorily, and she was even surprised that the soul could also shed tears.What surprised her even more was that they seemed to see her as she had been watching.Zuo Zhi put down "Lingzi" in his arms, stood up and took a step closer to the dangerous flame, looking at the direction of Lingzi's soul.

"Zuozhi?! Can you see me?" Lingzi was sure it wasn't her hallucination.She began to resist the attraction of ascending to the sky again, and sank towards Zuo Zhi's unknowingly outstretched hand.She wanted to grab his hand, even if it was the last time.Out of the corner of her eye, she saw something that was at least somewhat reassuring: Hijikata and the others had been woken up, and they were also at a loss for what was happening in front of them.

"Lingzi! Catch me!" She was crying with joy now, Zuo Zhi must have seen her, because he was trying to pull her back.The fingers of the two were inseparable, and Zuo Zhi finally took a big risky step forward, and at the moment when the fire burned his body, he touched Ling Zi's soul and held her hand tightly.

However, the strength of a single person is still a little weak, and Zuo Zhi is dragged by Ling Azusa to move towards danger.At this moment, everyone in the Shinsengumi saw it.It was too late to be surprised that this strange thing happened right in front of them, and everyone pulled each other closer, trying to help Zuo Zhi, trying to bring Lingzi's soul back.

Irresistible power and strange things happen in just a moment.The moment Zuo Zhi accidentally let go of Ling Zi's hand and touched her fingertips again, Ling Zi disappeared.She didn't feel anything, just like teleportation, her whole soul vanished into thin air.She only remembered the eyes of everyone looking at her at the end, and the feeling of oppression that the red moon gave people, and she didn't know what happened afterwards.For example, the light rain that started ticking from the moment she started crying, but no one noticed it, gradually turned into a heavy rain that fell from nowhere, pouring over the entire Kyoto.

Then I woke up.
