Genshin Impact is a big stage, come if you dare
Chapter 201 Crime and Punishment
Shikanoin Heizo opened the box Washizu gave him and carefully examined it. "It has been confirmed. These are all the remains of the deceased."
There are Mora and ores saved by local villagers, as well as weapons that foreign warriors regard as half of their bodies.
Su was right, Washizu was no longer a human being. He did not have to accept human punishment and labor reform, he only had to accept death.
Shikanoin Heizo took a deep breath and pulled himself together. "It also records that he locked a pharmacist named Baoben in the cellar. I wonder if the doctor is still alive. We have to go check it out."
Fortunately, pharmacist Baoben is still alive. Although he has been hungry for a long time, he does not seem to be in danger of life.
A group of people returned to Choji's house.
“Sister Miko, you’re back!” Choji came over and saw the weak Baoben. “Why are you bringing the fraudulent pharmacist with you…?”
Fraudulent pharmacist?
Su looked at Baoben, who had an honest look on his face, and Baoben gave him a wry smile in response.
Changci said: "Many people in the village have strange diseases. He and his teacher kept saying that they can be cured, but in the end, what they served was just violet melon soup with sugar added!"
Sue: "Is the sugared violet melon soup delicious?"
“That’s not the point!” Changci complained and then whispered, “…it’s quite delicious…”
Bao Ben said helplessly: "I am just a rural pharmacist. I am still in the learning stage... Caring is also a kind of treatment."
Speaking of this sentence that the teacher always said before, Baoben became silent when he thought of the teacher who is no longer with us.
Choji was very alert. "He is a liar anyway. Sister Miko, you are so gullible... You are so naive, don't be fooled by him."
Su is not afraid of being cheated. "If I am cheated, I will retaliate."
Choji shuddered, "I won't lie to you again, sister. I will be good. By the way, sister, how is Washizu? Is there any information about my mother?"
Su shook his head, "No, I killed Washizu."
Choji, Yasumoto and Inaba Hisazo were all shocked.
Shikanoin Heizo explained.
Inaba Hisazo found the weapons of the shogunate soldiers in the box and silently put them together.
"Washizu he..." Although he suffered a lot after being locked up in the cellar by Washizu, Baoben knew that Washizu was once a good person.
He worked hard to keep everyone fed and saved Choji's mother from being attacked.
But perhaps since it was polluted by the evil spirit, Washizu has gradually disappeared.
The witch stopped him from continuing to do evil, which might be a relief for him...
Baoben took out a treasured medical book from his pocket and took out the letter sandwiched between the pages.
He handed the letter to Choji, "This is the letter your mother wrote before she left."
Changci couldn't wait to open the letter, and as he read it, tears dripped onto the letter paper.
Su leaned over to take a look and found that the woman who had abandoned the child in a dangerous area told the child to take good care of himself and not to be disappointed in human nature. Finally, she told the child not to look for her.
Although I know that not all parents love their children, isn’t Nagaci’s mother too much?
As if he saw something in Su's eyes, Bao Ben couldn't help but explain: "The headmaster's wife doesn't want this either."
After the talisman was destroyed, the power of the evil spirit spread across the island, and the people living here either went crazy or developed strange diseases.
There are only a few people like him and Choji who are both rational and healthy.
The head master's wife also fell ill, although not as seriously as the others, but she also had a persistent fever and a small amount of bleeding.
She was afraid of infecting Nagaci and did not dare to stay at home.
Finally, Baoben's teacher suggested that the head teacher's wife go to Xumi, where the hospital might be able to save her.
Inaba Kyuzo looked at the crying Choji and said, "Can't you send the child to a safe place before leaving?"
Bao Ben smiled bitterly and shook his head, "The shogunate army and the resistance army are always fighting, where is there a safe place?"
"The rebels destroyed the town and turned this place into a living hell. But those people taken away by the shogunate army..." Bao Ben shook his head, "There has been no news sent back."
The rebels did evil things, and the shogunate army was not necessarily good people.
"I know some people in the shogunate army, and none of them have seen the people who were taken away."
The atmosphere became depressing and everyone was preoccupied with something on their mind.
After Baoben had recovered his strength by drinking water, he began to make a decoction. "These are the herbs I picked from the island."
Bao Ben believed that these herbs that still grew well under the aura of the evil spirit contained ingredients that could resist the evil spirit's power. If he conducted more experiments, he might be able to brew a medicinal soup that could cure the evil spirit disease.
However, after drinking a bowl of medicine, Baoben began to tremble uncontrollably and mutter incoherently, and it took a long time for him to calm down.
During this period, the remaining evil spirit power on the land was even attracted to him after he drank the medicine.
After Su Qing eliminated the evil spirits formed by the evil spirit, Baoben solemnly thanked the witch who saved him again.
Then, regardless of his still weak body, he adjusted the prescription and wanted to try again.
Su was completely speechless.
Now everyone can see clearly - Baoben is a good person, but he lacks ability.
Changci advised him to give up, "You can't make a medicine soup that can cure the evil spirit disease just by guessing and luck."
Inaba Kyuzo shook his head, "It will only be one more victim, give up."
Heizo Kannoin also said: "The responsibility of saving everyone is too heavy. Even if you die of exhaustion, you can't carry a mountain on your back."
Bao Ben was very stubborn. “I am the only pharmacist left on the island. If even I give up, then…”
Su Cai was too lazy to persuade him, so he simply took out his seasickness pills and forced one into Baoben's mouth.
The drug took effect quickly and Baoben closed his eyes unwillingly and fell asleep.
"You two," Su pointed at Kanoin Heizo and Inaba Hisazo, then at Choji and Yasumoto, "take these two to a safe place."
They are all dragging us down. Get rid of them all. Get rid of them all.
Su waved her hand and sent them away, "Don't let them die." Otherwise, her rescue would have been in vain.
After a pause, he added: "If they insist on continuing to commit suicide, let them do it."
Do you have to care about the person forever if you save him for a moment? Whatever you want!
Seeing the girl decisively leaving everyone behind and quickly walking away, Shikanoin Heizo wanted to chase after her, but after looking at the old, weak and sick people around her, he couldn't take a step forward.
"Alas," Luyeyuan Heizo sighed, "It's such a rare opportunity to be with her and understand them..."
Inaba Hisazo carried the unconscious Yasumoto on his back and handed a letter to Shikanoin Heizo, "After returning to Narukami Island... please give it to my family for me. They live in..."
Shikanoin Heizo rejected the suicide letter and said, "Don't worry, I will protect you. Don't worry about Kujo Bugyo sending people to arrest you."
He has collected a lot of dangerous evidence, and the Kujo family dare not and cannot act rashly against this group of people.
Inaba Hisazo shook his head. Even if Tenryo Bugyo let him go, he had already made up his mind to die.
His survival instinct and the witch's good medicine have kept him going until now.
The shogunate has always claimed that the war with Kaijima was a "righteous war" to defend the territory of the Ogosho.
But this so-called "righteous war" is the greatest sin.
War is cruel, and all participants must bear the sin, including him, the deserter.
"Are you still thinking of committing seppuku to apologize?" Inaba Hisazo's silence confirmed Kanoin Heizo's guess. He held his forehead with a headache, "I thought what you saw and heard along the way would give you the desire to survive..."
As long as there is a glimmer of hope to survive, those who want to live will struggle hard.
As a result, Inaba Hisazo's war trauma did not improve at all.
Shikanoin Heizo said decisively: "Your life has been given to Su... to Miko-sama, and Choji is also in your hands! He is your responsibility until his mother takes him home."
Without waiting for Choji to object, Shikanoin Heizo convinced him.
"Even if you succeed in reaching a foreign country, can you really find your mother in such a vast sea of people? If the headmaster's wife recovers and returns but can't find you, where will she go to look for you? It would be better for you to stay in Inazuma's safe place and wait for your mother to return home and reunite with you."
Following the eye instructions from Heizo Kannoin, Choji hesitantly approached and held Inaba Hisazo's big hand.
Changci raised his head, trying to make himself confident, "I am the responsibility entrusted to you by the miko, I don't owe you anything!" He only owed the miko a favor, and barely counted it as a detective brother...
In his mind, no matter whether they were samurai from the shogunate or the rebels, they were not good people! He would never owe a favor to a samurai.
"You don't owe me anything," Inaba Hisazo's eyes were hot, "This is... my atonement."
If saving others could make up for one or two sins of participating in the war, he would be willing to spend the rest of his life doing good deeds and making up for it.
