I’m Really Unnerved In Tokyo

Chapter 704: burning memories

The scorching wind seemed to have swept away all the air, leaving only a sultry suffocation.

"I am..."

The continuous impact on his chest and shoulders made Abeji slowly open his eyes.

"……Where? ! 』

The hot smoke and the burning scorch stench came blowing.

He was standing on the narrow and quaint long street, and behind him was a huge wooden bridge that was five meters wide and spanned the river.

Not far ahead, there is a gate that is ten meters wide. There are also scattered wooden buildings on both sides of the long street inside the gate.

"Yoshihara..."

On the gate, the words "Yoshihara Yukaku" are written squarely.

"Then behind me is Nihonbashi? ! 』

At the head of the bridge behind, on a quaint stone tablet, the simple three words "Japanese Bridge" are engraved.

"Everyone, pack up and go, the Benmiao Temple is on fire, and it is burning all the way!"

"The fire has burned to Yoshihara... Take the children and money and run to the southwest!"

The people who kept passing by Abe Temple and crowding the long street in front and the wooden bridge in the back were crowded with simple clothes, panic-stricken faces, carrying large bags and small bags, dragging their families to escape for their lives.

No time to pay attention to the chaotic flow of people, once Abe Temple's eyes fell into the distance, he could no longer look away.

"Is this the former Edo Castle? But this fire..."

The backdrop behind these escapees was the entire Edo castle shrouded in fire and smoke.

Among them, the most eye-catching is the Edo Castle's tallest landmark building, which is also the residence of the shogun.

The fire that devoured Edo Castle's Honmaru, Ichinomaru, and Ninomaru is still moving at a very high speed along the wooden buildings without fire belts, the seamless arrangement of wooden buildings, and the wooden sewer covers built along the road like a fuse. Spreading rapidly around...

"I, my house..."

"Don't worry about it, I heard that the fire can't be put out, even the General's house is gone... ah ah ah, it's so hot, don't leave me!!!"

Soon, the fire drowned Yoshihara Yukaku, which was like a big oven, with countless tragic mourning, chasing the fleeing people all the way, and spread to Yoshihara Yukaku in front of him.

"Could it be that this is just some kind of memory..."

Abe Temple wanted to step forward to help, but found that he could not control this body, and could only watch the people who could not escape being swallowed up by the flood-like fire.

As for "himself", he stepped up against the innumerable flow of refugees, facing the area where the fire was spreading as if at home.

Along the way, countless people who couldn't escape, wailed in the thick smoke and flames, or were buried under the burned buildings, or even trampled into meat sauce by the crowd...

And those who escaped before the fire came, gathered from all directions in front of Nihonbashi and Shinbashi, because of the narrow bridge deck and the huge flow of people.

"what!!!!"

"Then, what is that?!"

Just when people were at a loss in the fire and smoke, even more terrifying things appeared in front of them...

The rapidly rotating fire burst out from the ground, transforming into several fire tornadoes connecting the heaven and the earth.

As these fire tornadoes moved slowly, everything they went, including oxygen, was torn apart in the wind and flames.

Fueled by the heat wave, the fire quickly swept the entire world as far as the eye could see, presenting the eight hot hells alive in front of everyone...

"Cough cough... The bridge is burning... The one in front hurry up..."

"Woooooooo, it's so hot, it hurts..."

"Help... who will help me... Mom..."

Among them, it naturally also includes several bridges such as Nihonbashi and Shimbashi that connect Edo Castle with the outside world.

The overcrowded bridge was instantly shrouded in fire, exuding the aroma of roasted meat.

The crowd of refugees who are constantly struggling but unable to move are like souls suffering endless sins in hell.

Under the pressure of the burning bridge deck, countless people were forced to choose to jump into the Sumida River, but they still failed to escape the fate of drowning.

"This fire is very similar to Yoshihara Yuguo's lust, but it's not the same..."

Facing the Edo Castle, which was completely swallowed up by the fire, and whose life was fading, Abe Temple, who could not control his body, could only traverse the streets of fire, smoke and charred corpses like the current, committing suicide towards the most sturdy. A tornado of fire went straight ahead.

"Is this man a slayer? ! 』

A thin layer of spiritual power covered his body, preventing the flames around him from entering.

"Looking at the posture of holding the sword, it seems that his practice is also 'two days first-class'. 』

Although he can't see his current appearance, he can confirm that this is not his body through the worn double knives in his hands and the style of his robe.

"And the pattern on the long sleeves... What is his relationship with Asagiri? 』

While the robes fluttered in the hot wind, the most eye-catching thing was the pattern of flames and cherry blossoms on the long sleeves of this kimono, which was the same as that on the oiran Asagiri kimono.

"Who is he...where is he going..."

I can't control my body~www.readwn.com~, but the hot flames, the thick smoke in the nose, and the screams in the ears are all so truly spread into the five senses of Abe Temple...

Helplessly ignoring the thousands of lives that were struggling and vanishing in the fire, and listening to the last cry of the countless dead, he finally came to the fire tornado...

This situation and this scene are very similar to the scene in the "Yoshihara Yan Shang" Shenyin.

Half-stained with firelight, flame patterns and cherry blossoms, the sleeves are quietly suspended in the center of the fire tornado.

"You are late, the entire Edo Castle has been buried with me."

In the fire tornado, there was a hoarse roar that was not human-like.

"Shoji Jinemon... Now it's your turn to be buried with Edo."

The man's clear voice rang in his ears.

This was the first time I heard the voice of "him" at Abe Temple.

"This is……"

The double knives were unsheathed, and the huge and pure sword light that could clearly be seen but could not be avoided swept out, splitting the huge fire tornado rising into the sky in front of Abe Temple in two...

"What a mighty sword! 』

Compared with the "Taishan Fujun Sword" of Abe Temple, which is more focused on yin and yang, this sword is closer to the peak of pure kendo, but it integrates spiritual power just right.

"Jie Jie Jie Jie... Even your swordsmanship is like a god, you can't completely destroy me..."

The half of the sleeves with flames fell from the sky.

"The whole desire of Edo...is my own...I will be reborn a thousand times in this lust..."

Shoji Shinemon's voice still echoed in it.

"These people will not only be buried with me, but will also become the fuelwood of this **** for eternity, and must not be detached!"

The wind danced wildly, and another fire tornado lifted the half of the sleeves to the ground, setting off a thousand layers of flames.
