[Gintama] The Story of Me and Curly Yaksha

My Story with Curly Yaksha 71

He is indeed a villain, he challenged other warriors without any scruples, killing people and taking knives, not for money, but just for the pleasure of proving his own strength.He only takes action against powerful warriors, not ordinary people, but he is not very good to ordinary people. When he and his mother lived in seclusion in the town, once others disrespected him, he would immediately attack him with fists and kicks.

Of course, it was not because of kindness, but because he felt that this small town was already his territory, and he could not tolerate the invasion of heaven and man.Just a complete jerk.

But the young self didn't know it, and was moved by his father's figure of protecting the townspeople, and continued to do the work of protecting the townspeople.In fact, it's not that she doesn't know the truth, it's just that she chooses to ignore it, unwilling to face the fact that she is isolated by the townspeople.

Because... because, no matter what, he was still his father.Even though he is such a villain, he is very kind to his mother and daughter, and he is the father he likes.

Even if it was true, it would be painful for anyone to hear that their father was called a murderer.This is unavoidable.

She was extremely angry, but also very painful and helpless.With such a mood, she came to Yagyu's house.

She finally cut off Min Muzhai's sword, just as Min Muzhai thought, she was already old, if he was 20 years younger, Miyamoto Aoi, this little girl would definitely not be enough, but I have to admit Going forward, I have to obey the old.

At the last moment, Aoi withdrew her knife and sheathed it, and the indifferent expression on her face disappeared.Living in the Shinsengumi during this time, she regained the heart to protect others, learned to accept herself and face her father, and would not lose control in the desire to fight like before.This is all due to the enthusiasm of the companions and Yamazaki's enlightenment. Although she is still not good at getting along with overly enthusiastic companions, Aoi is actually very grateful to them from the bottom of her heart.

She bowed slightly to Min Muzhai, "I offended you, Senior Yagyu."

"I have to be old." The little old man stood up, patted the dust off his body, and Dong Chengbu quickly stepped forward to support him, for fear that something might happen to the old man.

"Then according to the agreement, the Yagyu family's swordsmanship is lost to the Miyamoto school, and our Yagyu family will no longer pass on the swordsmanship. This is also a common life and death situation among dojos."

"Master!" Dong Chengbu beside him hurriedly stopped him.

Aoi shook her head and interrupted him: "There's no need for that. I didn't come here to defeat the Yagyu family, I came here to settle the grievances of the past."

It is true that his father killed the disciples of the Liusheng family in order to prove the Tao, even if he had no eyesight, he shouldn't have killed him like this.The swordsmanship of the Miyamoto school is like this, either death or injury, and it is not impossible for her to understand the reason why the Yagyu family wants to seal their own swordsmanship.

However, she couldn't put down her sword.The Shinsengumi is her only destination now. If it weren't for this power, the Shinsengumi would not have taken her in. She now has nothing but a sword.If she can't use a sword, she can't protect her companions, so she is useless, but she can't escape the crimes committed by her father, so she can only choose to carry it on her back.

That's why she had to take up the challenge. Even if she faced the risk of losing the sword, she had to face it and end the sins of the year for her father.

"Although the crimes committed by my father could not be undone in one step, and I did not escape, but now I have something to protect, so I have decided to bear these and go on." Miyamoto Aoi said, looking at the woman in front of her. The old man said, "Senior Yagyu, you lost to me not because the hero was dying, but because your heart was disturbed."

"If you want to protect everything, you can't protect anything. For you, it may not matter whether you win or lose, but for me, you have no choice but to win. This is why you lost. You and your granddaughter are guilty, and with guilt If you wield your sword emotionally, you will not be able to display your true strength."

"How do you know this."

"Before I came, I met Miss Shimura."

Miyamoto Aoi didn't hide anything, and said generously: "In fact, I have doubts about your challenge from the very beginning. Even if it was the hatred back then, there is no need to make a special visit. You don't hesitate to use my father's affairs to anger me, and you want me to come and challenge you." So I went to Ms. Shimura to learn about Ms. Yagyu's past, and I understand why you challenged me."

"You don't have the awareness that you must win or die for me. This is the reason why you lost. You just want to use me to liberate Ms. Yagyu, but have you ever thought that Ms. Yagyu really needs you to sacrifice for her like this? If she knows that you did it for her What would she think if she abandoned the Yagyu family? Have you discussed everything you did with her?"

"Just like back then, I ignored her thoughts and raised her as a boy, and now I want to make up for her abandoning the Yagyu family she guarded. Self-sacrifice in the name of love actually hurt her."

"I want to protect everything, but in the end I can't protect anything. If you had the determination to protect Ms. Yagyu even if you abandoned the Yagyu family, she wouldn't be like this."

This statement can be said to hit the nail on the head, and Min Muzhai can't refute it. Having rich social experience doesn't mean that you won't make mistakes. In fact, many parents can't guarantee [-]% that their arrangements for their children are correct. "I..."

"There's no need to explain to me. Since I won, can I go now? I have to go back to the Shinsengumi for duty in the afternoon." Miyamoto Aoi didn't finish listening, after all, it had nothing to do with her.She left very coolly, and the disciple consciously made way for her.

At the door, Miyamoto Aoi stopped, "Did you hear that? Ms. Yagyu."

I don't know when the girl dressed in men's clothing stood at the door, Miyamoto Aoi glanced at Kubei, "I heard that you always wanted to marry Miss Shimura, but you gave up this idea because you lost to me. Now you know your Your family has sacrificed so much for you, so you want to marry Miss Shimura regardless of everything?"

"Did A Miao tell you all of this?"

Miyamoto Aoi didn't deny it, she just said, "Actually, you also know that Ms. Shimura has only friendship but no love for you. And her dream is to revitalize the Shimura Dojo, not to marry into a famous family and force her to be with you, but It's just taking advantage of her guilt towards you."

"Enough." Jiubingwei frowned slightly. In fact, Aoi didn't mean anything malicious, but she was just like that. Sometimes she was too honest, and what she said would be a bit stinging.He was about to say something when he saw Aoi staggering while covering his wound, "What do you know! I... Hey!"

In fact, Aoi also suffered a lot of injuries in the battle just now. Although it wasn't fatal, it was still horrific. Going to Yagyu's house alone to play in the gym is not that simple.Aoi carried it alone, regardless of the injury, but has been holding on until now.

Aoi nearly fell down, and Kubei tried to help her up, but before his hands could touch her, Aoi stabilized herself, and she finally stood up straight.She nodded to Kubei, "Thank you, I'm leaving."

The not tall figure stands up straight, like an indomitable lily.Her figure holding the sword is very awe-inspiring, but her eyes are so pure and gentle, even if she is treated so unfairly, she has no evil thoughts.She doesn't need to show her strength with her teeth and claws, she doesn't need to deliberately pack herself with indifference, and she doesn't need to worry that she is not as good as a man as a woman.Just by standing quietly, she can make people feel that she is reliable and powerful, but also gentle and lovely as a woman.

From the beginning to the end, she only focused on fighting, and didn't care about anything else.She is so strong because her sword is pure.

Thinking of this, Jiubingwei was a little envious.During the battle, the eyes were indifferent, but the pure eyes of Aoi on weekdays made people couldn't help letting go of their guards, and Kubei couldn't help but confide in his heart. "...I really envy you."

"You are good, A Miao is good too. You are beautiful and powerful, a woman who is as delicate and charming as a flower, and has the persistence and strength not to lose to a man in her heart." She thinks that Aoi is really a very brave person, even if she knows It's not my fault, and I won't escape,

"And I, being neither a man nor a woman, sometimes I really don't know what I'm going to do."

Aoi looked back at her, not knowing what to say for a moment.She is not good at comforting people, and she can't empathize with the pain of Kubei being raised as a boy by his family.Compared with this country girl, Kubei has to bear the burden of the family.Even knowing that the Yagyu family will go downhill in this era of the decline of the shogunate and the samurai, I still want to be the Yagyu family.

She is very guilty of her family, and feels that because she is not a boy, she has made the gradually declining Yagyu family worse.She wants to be a man, protect the family, and protect A Miao.

But at the same time, she is also envious of ordinary girls who can wear cute skirts and beautiful hair accessories to go out and smile freely.Jiubingwei was under a lot of pressure. Under such circumstances, it was difficult to pursue a pure sword, which had a great impact on the realm of swordsmanship. But Jiubingwei did it. She bore the pressure of the family and inner conflicts, and became the member of the Yagyu family. The strongest genius swordsman of the decade.

This is actually very difficult.

Aoi was silent for two seconds, and said, "You are also very beautiful and powerful."

"You can come to the Zhensengumi anytime you want to challenge me, and I'll wait for you to defeat me and justify the name of the Yagyu family." Although these two sentences were dry, they were also comforting words that Aoi thought of with all her heart, and they were also in her heart talk.

"But before that, you need to accept yourself. If you don't have that awareness, you won't be able to defeat me."

Jiubingwei was stunned for a second, then suddenly moved, "I'm sorry for threatening you with your father's affairs. Those grievances are actually not your fault, don't worry about it."

Aoi didn't answer, just waved her hands, "I'm leaving, goodbye." This time, she really left.

-

Aoi didn't know if what she was doing was right, or if it was an understanding, but she felt that this was the only thing she could do.It's like she inherited her father's swordsmanship, and she also has to bear this crime, because she is a policeman now, if she doesn't have the courage to face the crimes of her own family, then what qualifications do she have to face the crimes of others.

She walked alone on the road with injuries. She has long been used to this level of injuries. She is used to facing and bearing alone. As long as it is not fatal, she doesn't care.Suddenly feeling a familiar aura behind her, she was a little surprised, but at the same time felt relieved.

The wound started to hurt again, and she was holding her wound and stood still a little shaking. At this time, someone appeared to support her.She turned her head and showed a gentle smile to the man, "I knew that you were always by my side."

Compared with the attitude of being strong just now, Aoi did not refuse the other party's support at this time, and showed her vulnerability with peace of mind.

"You found out." Yamazaki thought, that's right, how could Aoi not be able to find out according to Aoi's strength.

When he knew that Aoi was going to Yagyu's house today, Yamazaki simply skipped work and followed quietly.It's a lie to say that he doesn't want to stop it, but that's the matter of the Aoi family, and he knows he can't convince him.If Aoi really loses, she will really give up swordsmanship.

Because her father had indeed killed someone, she felt that it would be okay for her to make up for it with the swordsmanship she had learned.This child is so stubborn, once he makes a decision, he can't stop it, obviously it's not his fault.It’s fine to say she’s stupid, but she’s a very tolerant person to the one she loves, whether it’s sin or something else, she’ll even help you bear it.

In the end, Aoi was carried back by Yamazaki, which didn't match her powerful strength. Aoi looked petite and cute, not heavy, and looked very fragile when she was injured.

"You'd better go home and rest." Aoi suggested.

"But I'm on duty today..."

"How can you work if you can't stand still!"

Yamazaki's soft roar didn't sound deterrent to others, but Aoi recognized it. She drooped her eyebrows and leaned on the opponent's back like an aggrieved puppy, "Okay..."

"I'm also doing it for your own good. If you force yourself to work, it will affect your efficiency, and you will be scolded by the deputy chief again." Yamazaki persuaded her with a good temper like coaxing a child.

"Hmm...Senior is too nagging." Aoi rubbed against her coquettishly.

"Yes, yes, I am already an uncle, of course the uncle will nag."

No need to say much, and no other explanation is needed, just company is enough.The matter of her father is the biggest pain in Aoi's heart, and now she has only one destination, the Zhensengumi, so she can't wait to get back to her post and find her own existence.

But not anymore.

"Xiaokui, it doesn't matter even if you lose. The Shinsengumi won't abandon you just because of this." Yamazaki said as he walked, "Actually, I'm just like you. I used to be a gangster who achieved nothing. Find someone to provoke. But even so, I Shinsengumi did not give up. Although I am not strong, I think I can still do something.”

"Even if you can no longer use the sword one day, it doesn't matter, just come to the monitoring team to work at that time. The Shinsengumi will not give up any companion, and the way to protect others is not only fighting."

Yamazaki looked at her beloved girl behind her, and sincerely hoped that she would be happy. "I used to feel that I had nothing but strength..." Aoi said suddenly after being silent for two seconds.

"It's not like that, I..."

"But I know now." Aoi leaned on his back with a smile in her eyes, "I like Shinsengumi the most, and I like you the most."

Hearing this, Yamazaki was relieved, and he smiled and said, "I like you too."
