Chapter 368 Broken father and son (two in one, please subscribe!!!)

Facing Tachibana Masamune's entreaties, Yuan Zhisheng stood silently in the darkness, without saying a word, like a cold iron tower.

Full redemption...to whom?Erika?The girl who played the role of sister in his life?

Yuan Zhisheng seriously imagined that scene in his mind, and then found that he could not achieve any perfect redemption...even if that girl really became a "ghost" one day.

He has done similar things many years ago, raised his ghost-slaying sword to understand the life of an important person... But that is not a complete redemption at all, it is just pure killing, no matter what Whether the other party is a "human" or a "ghost", if you kill it, you will kill it, and the pain you bear will not be relieved in the slightest.

There is not a single day when Yuan Zhisheng did not regret the decision he made that day. If he could go back in time and do it all over again, he would never swing that deadly blade and kill that important person in his life... that feeling It's like cutting off a large piece of your own heart, leaving nothing but a blank space.

To this day, he still occasionally wakes up from horrific nightmares, and the image in his mind is lingering... The boy who fell into the deep well stared at his face with clear eyes, and the moonlight fell on the handsome face like a woman. On the face, so clean, so white... like a child who is far away from you, and like a lonely ghost rushing towards you.

That day he lost his dearest brother, a big part of his life was missing, and Erika, who appeared later as his younger sister, finally made up for this gap... Neither legally nor morally can take his sister away.

So Yuan Zhisheng deeply questioned Tachibana Masamune's words in his heart, such as perfect redemption... Is this really what a father should say?Feeling that his death is imminent, he still wants to stand up for righteousness with his life, and make himself shake his will to punish him on the condition of sacrificing his only "daughter"?
Yuan Zhisheng's kindness towards Tachibana Masamune's return finally dissipated in his heart again, just like this man's kindness, it was simply a cloud of smoke that could not be blown by the wind... Yuan Zhisheng had a bitter smile in his heart, I never thought that I would still harbor such childish stupidity in my heart. Lu Mingfei had already revealed the true face of this man to me, yet I naively thought that this lunatic man might still find his way back.

Yuan Zhisheng took a deep breath, stretched out his hand to rest on the handle of the spider cut knife at his waist, his five fingers were slowly gathered, and he held the black knife handle tightly.

"Let's do it... Zhisheng." Tachibana Masamune saw Yuan Zhisheng's movements from behind, his prostrate body stood upright and knelt down, his sleeves were exposed along with his hands and chest.

As soon as Tachibana Masamune finished speaking, there was a sudden clang in the air, the pale arc tore through the air, and it magnified infinitely in Tachibana Masamune's pupils.

"I have no desires and no complaints. I live in a dream, life and death are a matter of life and death, and my lonely soul swims eastward to the underworld."

Tachibana Masamune read a sad sentence in a quiet tone, and then slowly closed his eyes.

He raised his head and showed his neck, generously welcoming the knife light that symbolized death.

The light of the knife jumped twice in the air, and two streams of blood splashed like crimson catfish, flying in clusters in front of Yuan Zhisheng's eyes.

Tachibana Masamune screamed, and his body fell to the ground in response.

Masamune Tachibana curled up on the ground, trembling and twisting uncontrollably, gasping for air, he stretched out his hands tremblingly, and touched his temples on both sides... But he couldn't touch anything , starting with only sticky and wet blood, and the part where the ear was originally was empty.

Yuan Zhisheng glanced at Tachibana Masamune, he blushed, and cut the spider into the scabbard around his waist.

"As you said, I can't fight against the entire group of ghosts and kings with my own strength. The Snake Family still needs you. You are a qualified leader. I am not a person suitable for being a leader." Yuan Zhisheng said expressionlessly.

"So you didn't kill me...but let me suffer the punishment of ear cutting instead?" Masamune Tachibana said with a trembling voice. His trembling voice was caused by severe pain, and the ear nerves were involved in the nerve center. The severe pain even Let him think that he didn't hear what Qingyuan Zhisheng said.

Tachibana Masamune really wanted to show a wry smile, but he couldn't move the corner of his mouth. The pain of being deprived of one of the five sense organs is absolutely unbearable for ordinary people.

In the underworld, the punishment of finger amputation is already a particularly severe punishment. Generally, members of the underworld make serious mistakes. The leaders of the gang will cut off the fingers of the member who made the mistake starting from the little finger. The pain of severed fingers is definitely enough to deter Sex, and generally after two fingers are amputated, a person cannot hold the handle of the knife.

The punishment of ear cutting is even worse than the punishment of severed fingers. No matter how serious the crime is, the underworld will rarely designate a person's face as the punishment part, because the face represents a person's dignity. Moreover, every function of the facial features is more important than holding a knife. Whether a person is blind or has a broken ear, it is a very embarrassing thing, which is enough to shake a man's majesty and demeanor, especially for Tachibana Masamune. A man who occupies the highest position in the Yakuza family... To some extent, this punishment is even crueler than depriving Tachibana Masamune of his life.

That's why when Lu Mingfei cut off Tachibana Masamune's eyes, Sakurai Nanami was so angry, and even Inuyama Kawa was extremely astonished, because Lu Mingfei's behavior was completely against the personal dignity of Sheqi Hachika and Tachibana Masamune Outright provocation.

"Your life is indeed not enough to explain to those dead clansmen, but I have to take something equivalent to your life as punishment, otherwise, as the head of the family, I can't explain to them, your eyes have been cut off , I can't blind your other eye and make you unable to see." Yuan Zhisheng said without changing his expression, "It doesn't make any sense to kill you now, those innocent people who died will not come back to life, No one will feel better... Then use the rest of your life to repent for those dead clansmen."

"Due to your mistakes, it is better to spend the next period of time healing and repenting." Yuan Zhisheng's voice was unreasonably cold, "As for the battle against the ghosts, from command to participation in the battle, I will I will take over the overall responsibility, and I will personally dispatch the combat power of the entire eight families...including the combat power under your Tachibana family, and the combat power you took over from Patriarch Inuyama."

Yuan Zhisheng's voice was very indifferent, and the meaning was very straightforward. Mr. Masamune, who used to be at the top of the Japanese underworld, has lost his great power. Maybe Tachibana Masamune's reputation is still there, but he has no longer been able to get a call from the Snake Eight Schools. The soldier died... In other words, Tachibana Masamune lost all his real power. Apart from his distinguished status as the Patriarch of the Tachibana Family, he is no different from those old people in the Ministry of Strategy who drink tea for retirement.

Tachibana Masamune was completely stunned. For a moment, he even wondered if his ears had been cut off and his hearing was blurred. These words were beyond his expectation, even unreasonable.

It can be said that Yuan Zhisheng lived under his guidance and education in his past life. If Tachibana Masamune is a strict teacher, then Yuan Zhisheng is his best and most obedient disciple. If Tachibana Masamune He is a fearless warrior, and that Yuan Zhisheng is the sharpest and most useful famous sword in his hand... If the disciple masters all the skills of the teacher, it is acceptable to do some immoral things that steal the teacher's skills, but a sword How can you have your own thoughts and betray your own master?

Just because of my deceit in the past and the mistakes I made, which led to the loss of the family today, this man who has always respected himself as his father completely lost his trust in him?That's all?

Tachibana Masamune was puzzled.

Tachibana Masamune thinks he is the person who understands Yuan Zhisheng's nature best in this world. In his estimation, appearing in front of Yuan Zhisheng in such a seriously injured posture today should be able to slightly offset his anger. Yuan Zhisheng's anger should be It's more about turning to Lu Mingfei. His posture has been lowered, and he gave Yuan Zhisheng a very sincere and reasonable explanation just now. It may not even be possible to cut off the fingers, and the greater probability is to be severely reprimanded by Yuan Zhisheng.

However, during the short time when the spider-cut blade magnified in Tachibana Masamune's pupils, the illusion that this angry lion-like man really wanted to kill himself flashed across Tachibana Masamune's mind for a few moments.

There are too many unimaginable things and physical pains that happened today, more than all the bizarre events that happened in the past 20 years. For so many years, Tachibana Masamune has never been as tired as today, and has never I've never been as frustrated as today.

First, under the protection of the two patriarchs, one eye was chopped off by the Kassel commissioner named Lu Mingfei, and then he almost fell into the crowd of dead waiters and was cut into corpses by thousands of ghosts. He was punished and suffered the punishment of ear cutting ... Everything that happened today and the "son" Yuan Zhisheng made Masamune Tachibana feel that things were faintly out of his control.

Tachibana Masamune didn't like this feeling very much. If he couldn't even hold such a small thing in his hands, how could he hold something bigger?
Yuan Zhisheng, who had already received the sword, shook his windbreaker jacket, turned his back to Tachibana Masamune, took a step, and walked slowly towards the direction outside the door.

Yuan Zhisheng walked to the position where he was about to step out of the door, and suddenly there was a deep shout behind him.

"Zhisheng!" Tachibana Masamune, who was kneeling on the spot, suddenly stopped Yuan Zhisheng.

Yuan Zhisheng's footsteps paused, he stopped at the same spot, and said without looking back: "People from the Metropolitan Police Department will come in a few hours, the family is in a mess now, sort out the wreckage of the dead servants and settle the dead. The family members of the family are short of manpower, and I must rush to the scene to coordinate and direct... If there is anything else, please explain it quickly."

"Is it... Zhisheng, I think about it, since you entered this room, you don't seem to have called me daddy." Tachibana Masamune's voice with a wry smile came from behind Yuan Zhisheng, "Also Yes, you probably don't want to recognize someone like me who has committed heinous crimes as your father, let alone so many things happened today, I caused the death of so many people in the family, it is no different from admitting a thief as your father."

Yuan Zhisheng said in a slightly silent voice: "It's not like what you said... It's just that there are too many facts that happened today... To be instilled with such a huge and impactful information within half an hour, no one would be at a loss what to do. ...I'm just a little confused right now, I can't sort out my thoughts, please give me some time...old...father."

The atmosphere in the air was a bit silent and awkward. There had never been such a lively atmosphere between Tachibana Masamune and Minamoto before.

After a long silence, Tachibana Masamune said: "Zhisheng, this is the last time I speak to you in such a teaching tone... You have taken over the position of the patriarch of the family from me. I am more responsible and capable, and I am a more suitable candidate to be the head of the family than I am. Only under your leadership can the family reproduce safely in this troubled world. I will tell you how you saw me after you learned the truth..."

"Chisei, you are my proudest 'son'. In my heart, you are as important as Erika." Tachibana Masamune stood up tremblingly, and bowed deeply to Minamoto's back. Please be sure to cheer up the family!"

Yuan Zhisheng took a deep breath, and finally replied calmly: "I will."

Then he left from the door without looking back, and a black windbreaker disappeared into the dark corridor, as if swallowed by the bottomless black mouth of a giant beast.

So Yuan Zhisheng didn't see him either. Just before his figure completely disappeared into the darkness, Tachibana Masamune, who had been bowing in the deepest part of the dark room, slowly raised his head. The face... also illuminated his eyes.

Different from his fatherly and kind expression, the old man had been staring at Yuan Zhisheng's back and disappeared from sight... Those dark gray eyes seemed to hide some ferocious beasts that devoured people, almost jumping out of his eyes. Come out and eat Yuan Zhisheng in one bite.

……

"Erika...Uesugi Erika...my daughter...Uesugi...Erika..."

Uesugi stood still in place, staring at the direction in which Eriyi's back was going away, lost his mind and dazed, he remained in a daze for an unknown period of time, saying "Eriyi", "Uesugi" and "daughter" in his mouth Saying that word over and over is like suffering from Alzheimer's.

"Master Yue? Master Yue?" Lu Mingfei waved his palm in front of Uesugi Yue's eyes, and muttered in a low voice, "Isn't it because I gave him too much stimulation in one day and scared him silly? I just thought about it." I shouldn't have told him about Erika, what if he suffers from dementia, such a lonely old man, I don't have time to take care of him..."

"Your sister with dementia! You are the only one with dementia! Your whole family has dementia!" Uesugi came back to his senses and stared at Lu Mingfei viciously, with an expression that wanted to eat him up.
