[Gintama] When Youkai Raiders Silver Fuck

"You... have grown up." Sakata Gintoki looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar girl in front of him, and said in a slightly hoarse voice, unable to hide the exhaustion in it, as if he would fall down in a second.

Zhenmu understood that the time she came was very wrong, and he didn't know what to say for a while, so he just responded in a low voice.

Thinking of the heads they buried silently in Yinshi before, the astrology he saw flashed through Zhenmu's mind, and he paused and said: "The fragrance of returning to the soul is also a spiritual thing. The fragrance smells for hundreds of miles, and the dead body is on the ground. To smell the breath is to live."

Sakata Gintoki was stunned for a moment, and then a tiny flame of hope rose uncontrollably in his heart. He grabbed Maki's shoulders tightly with both hands, like the last driftwood caught by a person who was about to drown: "Returning Soul Fragrance, Mr. Shoyo, you……"

Listening to the eager and incoherent vibrato, Shinaki didn't care about the pain on his shoulder, closed his eyes and sighed: "I don't know, but I have heard that the soul-returning incense can remove putrefaction and regenerate muscle. When you smell it, you wake up immediately, and those who have died within three days will live immediately after being smoked."

Sakata Gintoki, who was originally excited, felt as if cold water had been poured on him instantly. His heart felt cold, but he also calmed down. How could he find this kind of thing within three days...

"Heian-kyo." Shinaki didn't dare to look into Sakata Gintoki's eyes, lowered his eyes and said in the same tone as before, "Although I'm not very good at divination, I still know some. ,are you going?"

Without waiting for Sakata Gintoki to say anything, Sanaki continued: "Yatengu can take us through time and space to Heian-kyo, set a mark here, and return to this time directly when we return, so don't worry about the three-day limit, but... ..." Shinaki pursed his lips, turned his head slightly, "To be honest, I don't really believe in this kind of thing, disturbing the cycle of life and death without paying any price..."

"Go." Sakata Gintoki said in a low and slow voice, "Why don't you go, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, as long as..."

"...Why don't you tell them?" Shinaki glanced at the direction where Takasugi and the others had left to let him and Gintoki talk alone.

"No, anyway, this is the time when we come back, and if we can't find it, it will save them... a lot of joy, especially that guy Takasugi." Sakata Gintoki said silently.

Shinaki quietly looked at the handsome young man in front of him who had faded from immaturity and sharp edges, and after a long while, he almost sighed and called out in a low voice: "Ya Tengu."

The pitch-black crow that had been standing motionless on the branch of the tree behind flapped its wings a few times and flew over, dropping a few feathers. The sky was already dark at some point, and the sky was covered by dark clouds. There was a glimmer of light, and even the air seemed to become dull.

Sakata Gintoki watched in astonishment as the black liquid gradually seeped out of the bird that looked like an ordinary crow, wrapped it into a ball and continued to swell until it was saturated. After a moment of silence, two huge black wings flapped abruptly. Breaking through the huge black cocoon, it slowly unfolded, and the strong wind brought him almost unable to stand, and subconsciously grabbed Maki's hand and pulled her into his arms.

After the gust of wind dissipated completely and calmed down, the surrounding trees had already fallen to pieces, and the ground was covered with fine cracks like spider webs, and Sakata Gintoki could finally see clearly the huge creature that came out of the black cocoon, shaped like a crow, barking. It sounds like a dog, and it is called Yatiangou.

After Yatengu raised his head and let out a loud roar, he rolled Sanaki and Sakata Gintoki onto his back and protected it with an enchantment, then slowly bent down his front body to the lowest position, and at the same time completely stretched his wings Opening upwards, it suddenly swooped forward like lightning, and the space in front of it seemed to be twisted and cracked like a forcible breakthrough. It was different from the entrance when the ghosts walked at night, which was extremely unstable and distorted.

Yatengu's huge eyes turned completely black at some point, without pupils, it was shocking. The space-time rift that was forcibly opened had already recombined when they first entered, obviously in the virtual world with no sense of direction. However, the Tengu seemed to be clearly moving in one direction as if it could see the purpose.

"Hold tight." Holding Yatengu's black feathers as hard as iron, Maki hesitated for a moment and stretched out a hand to hold Sakata Gintoki's hand. He didn't look at him, but just stared straight ahead, "later Don’t be washed away when you go out, and the space will be very unstable when you tear the exit.”

Sakata Yinshi was stunned for a moment, then he tightly held the cold hand with his backhand, and put it in his palm: "Yes."

In the elegant and quiet courtyard, there are small bridges and trickling water, and one end of the bamboo tube tilts slowly, and then knocks on the stone with a "click", repeating the cycle.

Holding a plate of sake, he shook it to his lips, but the handsome young man in a white safari suddenly stopped his hand, and then a smile appeared on the corner of his lips: "A distinguished guest is here."

He drank it all in one gulp, put down the wine cup, and the shikigami-like maid behind her lowered her head and lightly moved forward to remove the wine cup. The young man calmly got up and straightened his clothes, smoothed the slight wrinkles on his sleeves, looking handsome, Flicking his sleeves lightly, he turned around and walked towards the bedroom.

"Where are we going next?" Sakata Gintoki raised his eyelids and looked helplessly at the surrounding trees. The sky was dark and it was almost nightfall.

Shinaki glanced around, hugging Yatengu who had exhausted his strength and turned into a crow due to traveling through time and space: "Cang said that as long as we come to Heianjing, someone will come to pick us up." Then he felt a spiritual force from far away. Ji Jin came in this direction, "Here we come."

As soon as the words were finished, a butterfly flew over and turned into a beautiful girl holding her chest in both hands in front of the two of them. She smiled sweetly and said, "I've been waiting for a long time."

After Sakata Yinshi shook his body, he focused his attention on the clothes in the girl's hands. He scratched at his messy silver hair, and there were some small tangles in his listless red pupils. It should not be for himself.

The girl who noticed the gaze pursed her lips and smiled, and walked towards Zhenmu and offered the cloak in her hand: "Please put it on, my lord, so that I can walk outside and block people's eyes."

Sanaki and Sakata Gintoki followed behind the girl shikigami who called herself a honey bug, listening to her soft-spoken explanation.

"Master Qingming sensed the turbulence of time and space, and if I occupy it, there will be distinguished guests, so he ordered me to wait here, and when I find it, I will take it to the house to entertain you." Mi Chong smiled and led the way, not caring about the people behind her. The silence continued, "Master Qingming once made an agreement with a lord that if you come here, you will be greeted and greeted, and you will also help the things you care about, so please don't worry about it."

"Cang did say so." Shinki didn't stay silent any longer, he closed his arms and said lightly, as if he was explaining to Yinshi.

"Here we are." Honey Bug stopped, "This is Abe's residence." Then he pushed open the gate engraved with a pentagram and passed through the barriers set up around the residence.

Walking on the small path in the courtyard, through the corridor, to the finger shelter, Maki saw the young man whom he had met once, and Gintoki Sakata couldn't help being stunned when he saw it, he didn't expect him to be so young.

"Thanks for your hard work, honey." Seimei Abe smiled at the honey who nodded and saluted him, and then turned to Sanaki and Gintoki Sakata, folding fans in his hands and standing with a smile, "Below is Seimei Abe."

"How?" Sakata Gintoki, who didn't want to go to the divination, sat on the porch and looked at the bright moon in the sky in a daze. He didn't know what he was thinking, and asked after hearing the footsteps behind him.

"Indeed." Maki stopped a foot away from him, "In Izumo, Qingmei Temple said that we can go after the Aoi Festival."

"Why do you want to participate in the festival?" Sakata Gintoki turned around and frowned, "Where's the crow?"

"I don't know." Shinaki looked at the gentle woman with light blond long hair walking towards this side and said lightly, "But since he said so, it should be necessary. Take care of it for me, after all, it’s not easy to take it with you all the way.”

"Next Tianyi, Lord Qingming asked me to take you to rest." Tianyi smiled softly.

Hearing this name, Maki couldn't help but take a few more glances. Is this one of Abe Seimei's twelve generals? Sakata Gintoki didn't respond, and stood up lazily.

Looking at Sakata Gintoki's light blue eyes that couldn't be concealed, Maki paused and replied, "I'm sorry for your trouble."

She thought it was time for him to go to rest first, as well as herself, to use one night to buffer her mood and... the strangeness and distance brought about by the years between them.

"At least... let's have a good rest first." Tianyi sent them to the guest room and left. Shinaki saw that Sakata Gintoki, who had been quiet since he saw him, finally just said these words, but felt a little bit in his heart. Annoyed that I couldn't say anything to comfort me.

Sakata Gintoki raised his eyes, looked at Maki seriously, a trace of almost invisible tenderness flashed in his eyes, then he covered her head with his hand and rubbed it lightly: "Ah."

"Oh, it's you." The handsome and flirtatious young man in white looked at the huge Yushenmu in front of him and said with a soft smile, but the slightly rising ending carried obvious danger, "Let Ajiu be ruled by the law." Admitting to stay in this world is really... an eyesore."

The huge demonic power swept towards the god tree unreservedly, and the powerful aura made all the monsters in the whole mountain tremble and surrender. .

"Then now..." Not paying attention to the horrifying wreckage at the scene, he easily opened the space-time passage, and the white-clothed boy said in a helpless tone as if he was just looking for a child who ran away, "Where are you? Ajiu."

The author has something to say:
