[Bo Yinggui] A gentleman, good day!

Wenjiu three years, winter.

A dead leaf on the branch floated into the half-open window along with the wind, and landed in the hand of Ye Xinlan who was writing the words at the desk.

A month ago, I received a letter from Chiba Sanako. In the letter, I first expressed my miss that I hadn’t seen for a long time, then narrated the interesting things in daily life, and finally asked her earnestly when she would go back to see her and spend the New Year together by the way .

Ye Xinlan is currently writing a reply letter. She first expressed her longing, and then shared some interesting illnesses she encountered with her friends. Finally, she explained that she would go back to celebrate the New Year with her at the end of the year, and asked her to take care of herself. read.

After finishing writing, she folded the paper, stuffed it into the envelope, and sealed it. Ye Xinlan stood up and opened the door to call Shiliang, and asked her to deliver the letter to the postman.

Unexpectedly, not long after Shiliang left, he went back and forth again, because someone came to see Ye Xinlan for a consultation.

Ye Xinlan wanted to refuse, because Saitoichi had repeatedly told her not to go out at night, and she probably knew the reason. Since Serizawa Kamo's death, the Shinsengumi has been completely taken over by Kondo Isamu, who once belonged to Serizawa's lineage The disciples were all beheaded.But Rakshasa still appears from time to time, apparently they have not stopped researching on the madness potion (transformation like water).

Therefore, the night in Kyoto is very dangerous. Saito was afraid that Ye Xinlan would bump into Raksha one day, and he did not show up in time, which would lead to an irreparable bitter fruit.So he kept telling Ye Xinlan not to go out at night. At first, Ye Xinlan didn't take it to heart at all. She was confident that her skills couldn't handle a mere Rakshasa, so she often went to Shimabara to listen to the music at night, and secretly asked if there were those two. News from the Ghost Clan.

It is worth mentioning that Xiaoling has already left the corner house, and she finally chose to return to her hometown.Using the money I earned over the years to redeem myself, I left only a letter for Ye Xinlan, and set foot on the journey home alone.Ye Xinlan once went to the corner house to chat with Xiaoling, and knew that there was someone in her heart, and that person was the servant of Serizawa Kamo - Ryunosuke Ibuki.

But Ye Xinlan knew that since Serizawa Kamo's death, this Ibuki Ryunosuke had also disappeared.I don't know if he and Xiaoling will have a chance to meet again.

However, that is their story.Now let's just say that after Saito found out about Ye Xinlan going to Shimabara at night, he was awkward for a long time, and when she went to Shimabara, he would put on a cold face to scare away even the geisha.In the end, he escorted Ye Xinlan home with a blank face, without saying a word the whole time, no matter how nice she was, she would not respond.

Ye Xinlan's temper wasn't too good either, so after coaxing her for a while, she found it was useless, so she calmed down and left him alone.But every time I want to go out at night, I can't help but think of Saitoichi's paralyzed face, and then the desire to go out miraculously subsides.Anyway, after inquiring for so long, there is no news about the two ghosts. They probably have left Kyoto, and going to Shimabara may not be fruitful.

Therefore, she has not gone out at night for nearly a month.

Now someone came to ask her for a doctor's visit, but Shiliang didn't send her away, but came to ask her for instructions. This shows that the person who came to invite her is an unusual person, and Shiliang dare not make decisions without authorization.

But it's already evening now, and the last ray of light on the horizon will disappear in a while. When she goes out at this time, I don't know if Saito will find out for a while, and then continue to fight her coldly.What's more, his attitude has softened a lot recently, as long as it takes a few more days, the awkwardness will probably stop.

What do you think, it's not worth going out tonight.

For the sake of caution, before making a decision, Ye Xinlan asked first, "Who is the other party?"

Shiliang understood that what Ye Xinlan wanted to ask was not the people outside the door, but who the patients were. After following Ye Xinlan for so long, she knew almost all of her patients.

"It's Mrs. Li Ji."

Reihime is the wife of Aizu Lieutenant General Matsudaira Yohoho, and also the wife!And Matsudaira Rongbao is the guardian of the capital, and in the land of the capital, he really has to give him some face.The most important thing is that she still needs this Lieutenant General, so she can't break her friendship now.

"I see, I'll go right away, you can stay, remember to deliver the letter." Today she can almost reveal her purpose to Li Ji, Shiliang should not follow.

Shiliang naturally nodded, yes, she has learned to behave well now, and will not try to provoke Ye Xinlan.

……

When he came out from Mr. Songping's mansion, the new moon had already risen in the east.Ye Xinlan was walking on the way home while thinking about the news she just got from Li Ji.Next to her was the guard sent by Songping Rongbao to escort her home. He was very responsible and focused on guarding. If she didn't talk to him, he wouldn't say a word by himself.

Suddenly there was a noise from the box on the left, and then a petite figure ran out of it, and happened to meet Ye Xinlan face to face, both of them looked at each other in surprise, they didn't expect to meet at this time and this place——

"Qianhe?!"

"Sister Lan?!"

The person who came was Yukimura Chizuru who went to Beijing to find his father.Not long after she arrived in the capital, she witnessed a case of the rogues murdering her for money, and now she is being hunted down by three rogues.

Thinking of her current situation, Xuecun Qianhe knew that now was not the time to speak. Just now she had shown that she knew Ye Xinlan, and the rogues behind her would definitely not let Ye Xinlan go, so she anxiously grabbed Ye Xinlan's hand and ran wildly, "Run!"

The guard who was in charge of protecting Ye Xinlan didn't stop her from getting close to Ye Xinlan after he found out that Ye Xinlan knew who was coming, and he was also running beside Ye Xinlan at this time. He should have captured those rogues, but now he is alone , and his duty was to protect Ye Xinlan, so he didn't choose to fight.

Xuecun Qianhe's physical strength is not good. After running for a while, she has gradually lost her strength, and it is impossible for Ye Xinlan to leave Xuecun Qianhe and run alone, so her speed also slowed down. The guards saw Ye Xinlan's speed. After slowing down, he naturally also slowed down, and pressed one hand on the handle of the knife, preparing for a possible battle at any time.

"No, sister Lan, run away and leave me alone." Panting, Xuecun Qianhe said to Ye Xinlan, she knew that she might be caught and killed, but she couldn't let Ye Xinlan die with her.

Ye Xinlan frowned, she couldn't do the thing of leaving the weak woman behind and running, let alone does she need to run?

"Qianhe, don't say such things, I won't leave you alone and run away!"

Xuecun Qianhe looked at Ye Xinlan with some emotion, thinking that she is really a kind and beautiful person, "But..."

"Doctor Chiba, I'll cover you, you take this one and run first!" The guard interrupted Yukimura Chizuru's unfinished words, took the lead to draw out the knife, and faced the Ronji who was almost catching up.

Xuecun Qianhe wanted to hold back the guard to tell him not to go, but Ye Xinlan had already pulled her to run into the alley, where it was easy to hide.As for the guards who were left behind, Ye Xinlan was not worried, she was sure that the other party would send one person to deal with the guards, and the remaining two would chase them.

If even one person can't be dealt with, that guard might as well die.

Ye Xinlan led Xuecun Qianhe to hide from left to right. Seeing that Qianhe beside her was panting for a long time, she realized that she had reached her limit, so she pressed her behind a wooden barrel, squatted down and whispered, "Qianhe, hide away!" Here, I'm going to lure them away."

As soon as she left, Qianhe grabbed her hand, "No way! Sister Lan will be killed! I should lure them away..."

"Listen, you don't have the strength to run anymore, do you?" Ye Xinlan held down the excited Xuecun Qianhe, and said patiently.After running for so long, she didn't see any trace of sweat or fatigue on her face, and she didn't even have any disordered breathing, her eyes were calm, and she didn't show panic at all.

Being looked at by such eyes, Qianhe only felt that his nervous and fearful mood eased a lot.The situation was urgent, and she didn't notice the difference in Ye Xinlan, she just kept shaking her head, not letting her take risks.

"Damn! Where did you go?"

"That woman and that kid run really fast!"

"We must not let them escape, search quickly!"

Hearing Langshi's voice, Qianhe didn't know where the strength came from, and pulled her behind her, while she blocked herself in front of her.If Lang Shi finds them hiding behind the debris, she will be the first to kill.Qianhe thought that he had already implicated Sister Lan, how could she let her die first?We must do our best to protect her.When the time comes, she will hold these two people back and let Sister Lan run for her life!

Putting her hand on the handle tremblingly, Yukimura Chizuru stared at the shadow on the wall, sweating nervously, but she didn't see Ye Xinlan's surprised expression behind her, she seemed to know something.

"Wow——" A scream made the Langshi who was about to find them stop, and looked in the direction of his companions, "Yangzhi!"

Immediately afterwards, only a strange cry was heard, which seemed to be... laughter?What followed was the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground after the swords collided.

The laughter became louder and closer, the voice was sharp and terrifying, Qianzuru covered her lips, afraid that she would not be able to help screaming.

In the end, the figure on the wall was stabbed through with a knife, and then a monster with white hair and red eyes came into view!Drooling, he looked at Qianhe ferociously, then raised the knife in his hand high, as if he would kill her in the next second.

At this moment, Qianhe finally couldn't help screaming, for such a monster, she didn't have the courage to draw her sword at all.

When she was waiting for death with her eyes closed, the sound of a sharp weapon piercing her body stopped the strange laughter of the unknown monster.Qianhe opened his eyes in confusion, and saw a man wearing the same clothes as the monster pull out the knife from the monster's body, the monster fell to the ground, and he calmly shook off the blood on the knife, put away the knife Sheathed.

"Ah~ What a pity! I planned to leave it to myself, Saito-kun, what did you see that made you work so hard?" Okita Souji walked up to Saitoichi, looked at Chizuru who was hiding, "You Do you know this person?"

Saitoichi didn't answer, he turned around and walked in front of Qianzuru, and slowly stretched out his hand, Qianzuru watched his movements nervously, what did he want to do?kill her?Or to catch her?Before Qianhe could come up with an answer, she realized that the other party's target was not her, but the person behind her.

And Qianhe finally found out that something was wrong, it was too quiet behind her!Looking back, she realized that Ye Xinlan had passed out at some point.

"What do you want to do?!" Qianhe didn't know where the courage came from, she opened her hand to block Saitoichi's movement, and looked at him vigilantly.

Seeing this scene, Okita, who was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, said with a smile: "Oh, you are regarded as a bad person ~ Saito-kun."

Before Saito could move, someone pointed a knife at Qianzuru's nose first, and said coldly threatening words, "Listen, don't run away, don't resist, if you dare to defy, I'll kill you!"

As a result, Xuecun Qianhe also followed in Ye Xinlan's footsteps and fainted from fright.It's just that Ye Xinlan is really in a coma or not... Hehe, let's make it clear.
