[Gintama] The Way of Slaying Ghosts

The moment Jiu Tsujisan opened the window, Sakata Gintoki rolled and crawled into the room with lightning speed, then hid behind her trembling with a terrified face, the whole process was done in one go and extremely skillful.

Jiu Tsuji stared blankly at the hideous figures not far from the window, in the silence, only Kagura's confused voice came from the next door: "Ayin, what are you doing, don't do things that are not suitable for children Aru."

Sakata Yinshi held Jiu Tsujisan's clothes tightly, and jumped to the next door and shouted: "What nonsense! Ah Yin hasn't had time to do things that are not suitable for children, okay! No, what is not suitable for children, the dead child should get up quickly! If you go to sleep again, you won’t even know you’ve been eaten!”

After a few seconds of silence, there was only a sound of bang bang bang bang bang, and the door of this room was opened.

Shimura Shinpachi dragged the dazed Kagura with one hand and opened the door with the other, and asked in a panic, "F-what happened?"

"Look out of the window yourself." Gintoki Sakata turned his head in grief and anger and stopped looking at the spooky outside. He almost wanted to shed tears of sadness. He had created such a beautiful atmosphere and said such touching words just now, but the reality is always various. Noble and glamorous look ideal.

Even if he wanted to look upright again, he stood in front of Jiu Tsujisan extremely powerfully and reliably, and said to her with an affectionate and gentle appearance comparable to the heroine of a girl manga: "Don't be afraid, I will protect you." But the reality is that the body is incomparable He quickly hid N steps behind Jiu Tsuji-san, and...it seemed that he couldn't get out, what should he do if he felt his legs were weak.

"Are you the few outsiders who came today?" A hoarse voice sounded.

Then they barely relied on their night vision to see that the standing figure had a few octopus-like tentacles on it, and a terrifying face that made hairs stand on end.

"Ghost!" This was the second scream tonight, and Shimura Shinpachi stuck himself against the wall. This was the first time in his life that he saw a ghost, a real ghost, a living ghost.

No...the dead didn't even look at it.

"What is that? Tentacle play? Aru?" Kagura rubbed his sleepy eyes, obviously not in the mood yet.

The window froze for a few seconds, and then the previous voice sounded again: "We are villagers in this village, and we will not harm you."

And then, and then they came outside, faced the ghosts who were not close, looked at each other, and began to listen to stories, real ghost stories.

"Actually, we were just normal human beings. It's just that since that night, people in the village have become like this one by one." One of the ghosts said dryly, "At the beginning, we only changed once in half a month. Later, the time became shorter and shorter, and now it looks like a human being every day during the day, and it looks like this at night.”

At this moment, Sakata Gintoki suddenly remembered what Shunichi had said before, and asked hesitantly: "Are we not going out at night because we are afraid of being seen like you?"

"Yes." A familiar voice sounded, and then looking over, the ghost who could vaguely see the original said calmly, "I am Shunichi, I wanted to reappear in this figure after explaining to you tomorrow, so You guys are also mentally prepared, but I heard your voice tonight, so I can’t help but come over and have a look, it seems to scare you now.”

Jiu Tsujisan raised his eyebrows: "Then?"

"You are a ghost slayer, so we want to know if there is a way to get rid of this state?" Shunichi's words carried almost invisible hope.

"Because you all turned into irrational evil spirits without exception in the end?" Jiu Tsuji-san said coldly what he hadn't finished.

Shun Yi took a deep breath and said with difficulty: "...Yes, and we don't want to look like this either."

"Where are those evil spirits?" Jiu Tsuji-san continued to ask.

"Killed by the villagers." Shun Yi said in silence for a while, "Every villager will have signs of sanity disappearing from time to time before he completely turns into a ghost, and then he will be locked up and killed after completely turning into a ghost." .”

Shimura Shinpachi asked in disbelief: "Is there no way?"

"No, so we hope that the adult who is the ghost slayer can find a way." Shun Yi looked at Jiu Tsuji San with a little anxiety.

To Shimura Shinpachi's and Kagura's surprise, Jiu Tsuji asked unceremoniously, "You haven't died yet?" Although it takes a while to become a demon, the village itself It's not big, and if it dies like this, there should be almost no one left.

All the villagers were silent, but Jiu Tsujisan was not in a hurry, just looked at them like this, and finally said hesitantly: "We have a way to get rebirth."

"Rebirth?" Sakata Gintoki looked up at them in astonishment.

"Well, as long as the corpse is handed over to Master Wuye, that person will be reborn, but he will lose all his memories." The voice of the villager who spoke at the beginning couldn't hide his reverence.

Kagura's eyes widened: "Is such a thing possible, Aru?"

"Of course." The villager seemed a little dissatisfied with Kagura's suspicion.

"Where's that witch?" Sakata Gintoki twisted his face and looked and looked, but couldn't find any ghost that resembled that witch.

"Master Miko is resting." The villagers said naturally, "No one will bother you at night, and that lord will not become a ghost."

It didn't take long for the villagers to disperse, and they closed the door tightly after entering the house.

"It's so scary, have we come to a ghost village?" Shimura Shinpachi brushed his head in cold sweat, "And there are really ghosts in this world."

Sakata Gintoki also held his head in cold sweat: "No, compared to that, what we need to worry about is whether it will become like that?"

"Men are really useless." Kagura scorned fiercely, then looked at Jiu Tsuji-san tearfully, "Are we really going to become ghosts? It's so scary, I don't want to become like that, Aru."

"Calm down, it won't be like that for the time being." Jiu Tsuji-san casually gave Kagura a hug.

Then Sakata Gintoki also came over and looked at Tsujizo pitifully, so Shimura Shinpachi on the opposite side stopped sweating, and directly despised Sakata Gintoki.

Jiu Tsuji-san directly ignored the natural scroll next to him, propped his chin in one hand, and knocked on the table rhythmically with the other: "Maybe we can visit that witch tomorrow and ask about rebirth." His fingers stopped suddenly, and Jiu Tsuji San said thoughtfully, "Speaking of which, as a witch, I should be more resistant to ghost aura, but I didn't feel a pure aura from her, but a ghost aura stronger than any villager. .”

"Is that witch a ghost?" Sakata Gintoki said in disbelief.

"Are there any villagers here who are not ghosts?" Shimura Shinpachi twitched the corners of his mouth, "And according to what the villager said before, only the witch can't become a ghost."

"That's right." Sakata Gintoki froze.

"As for now, go to bed first." After Jiu Tsuji-san finished speaking, he went back to the room, and the other three looked at each other for a while before falling asleep, but they might not be able to sleep tonight.

On the second day, Jiu Tsuji-san saw two pairs of dark circles under the eyes of severe lack of sleep, but Kagura looked completely unaffected and was in high spirits.

When they visited Wuye again, they only saw that she was still taking care of those herbs.

For their arrival, Wuye was not surprised, but said calmly after hearing the question about rebirth: "I just discovered a place by chance, as long as I put the corpse there, I can get a new life, and the growth rate is very fast." It will also be very fast, a month inside is almost equivalent to a year outside."

"Do people in the village know that place?" Sakata Gintoki frowned.

"No, I don't know." Wuye shook his head, "After all, if someone completely becomes a ghost, once he destroys that place, then this village is over."

Jiu Tsujisan narrowed his eyes slightly: "So you can't take us there either?"

"Yes." Wuye replied calmly.

"I understand." After saying that, Jiu Tsuji-san got up and was about to leave, but finally said with a half-smile, "Speaking of which, are you really a witch?"

After leaving together, Shimura Shinpachi asked hesitantly, "Are you leaving like this?"

"Yeah." Jiu Tsuji-san nodded casually, "Anyway, she's not going to tell us the place, so it's better to find it myself."

"Maybe we can just find a way out." Sakata Gintoki added lazily.

"Have you just finished visiting Lord Wuye?" A familiar voice suddenly came from not far behind.

Jiu Tsujisan turned around, only to see the boy named Shunichi carrying a bow and arrow and preparing to go hunting.

When he got closer, he glanced at them briefly and asked, "How is it?"

"She didn't want to tell us the place of rebirth." Kagura muttered.

Seeing that Shunichi didn't seem too surprised, Jiu Tsujizo asked directly: "How much do you know about that witch?"

"Ah?" Shun Yi was a little astonished, and then said in a daze, "Wu Ye... Actually, she was not like this before. Although she was a witch, she was not much different from the girls in the village. She is more lively than now, but Since that night, she has gradually become like this, although she is very gentle and perfect, it makes me feel a little fake and distant, and for some reason, every time I see her... I feel a little uneasy."

"I can't tell, I thought you admired that Wuye very much." Sakata Gintoki clicked his tongue a few times.

Instantly, his face froze, and then he lowered his head and said: "The village... is like this. After all, if it weren't for Master Wuye, this village would have turned into that kind of monster long ago."

"What would you do if I said that I suspect that Wuye has a problem?" Jiu Tsuji-san asked casually.

Shun Yi immediately froze in place, not knowing what to say.

"Well, don't think too much." Jiu Tsuji-san glanced at him and was about to leave.

"Wait..." Shun Yi suddenly stopped Jiu Tsuji-san, and then said in a slightly trembling tone, "Since you, the ghost slayer, said this, then there must be something... "

"So, I'm just skeptical." Jiu Tsuji raised his eyebrows slightly, "Or, you're also skeptical?"
