Swallow Back

"boom--"

There was only a piercing sharp sound, and the tarnished demon sword "Mura Masha" was immediately broken into two pieces.

Then it should be over...

"Mr. Kojiro, thank you so much. Your kindness to me and to the Shinsengumi is beyond words... Please feel free to use my body and mind as a repayment!" Okita Sougo still showed an exaggerated expression, like a rat The pet dog with its tail is flattering.

Asahime Igawa and Rinko Akiyama looked at each other, and they both breathed a sigh of relief.During the high-intensity battle just now, they were almost useless by the side, and the feeling of being forced to watch was really painful.

Liu Yun couldn't help but frown.

He felt vaguely in his heart that the matter didn't seem to be completely over yet.

But I can't say a specific reason.

Chapter 214 How can I, a passing businessman, seriously select the next team leader?

After the death of Juro Hijikata and dozens of his subordinates, it seems that the large Atakafune that was used as the base of the Shinsengumi has changed hands.

Although there were still many boatmen and handymen, they had neither the ability nor the will to resist the warriors with swords, and all they could do was kneel down and beg for mercy.

Okita Sougo rescued Isao Kondo, leader of the Shinsengumi who was under house arrest.

The whole story of the matter is very clear.

However, Isao Kondo seemed to have been instilled by Toshiro Hijikata with a unique secret poison that requires regular antidote to stay awake. Before he could speak a few words, he fell into a coma and his vital signs continued to be lost.

Okita Sougo hastily used the pills and decoctions he carried with him, and poured them into the team leader to continue his life.

However, it was only to counteract the effect of the poison and barely extend his life, it was not enough to restore him to normal.

Kondo Isao just held on, briefly explained the cause and effect, and solemnly asked: "Hurry up to stop that guy Shishishi, and the Shinsengumi cannot be destroyed!" He exhausted all his strength and was unable to speak for a while.

Okita Sougo could only frown helplessly and provoke the leader.

In the past two days, under the guise of the team leader, Hijikata Shirōro has led the lower-level "hardliners" members of the Shinsengumi who are ready to move, and has ruthlessly purged the upper-middle-level "traditional" cadres. This has become an established fact .

After all, not everyone is as lucky as Sawaki Kosuke, who happened to be rescued by a passing expert.

Now Sougo Okita wants to "set things right" and turn the situation around, which seems to be quite difficult.

After all, the "hardliners" took the lead, and the backbone of the "traditional faction" has suffered heavy losses.

But anyway, apart from the culprit Shirō Hijikata, things are always feasible.

Okita Sougo has now gained control of the ship, and has mastered the communication channel between the leader and the deputy team leader.

Of course he can do what Toshiro Hijikata can do.

It is entirely possible to conceal the actual situation of the chief and deputy team leaders, and lure the core members of the "hardliners" to come and kill them one by one.

The problem is that the consequences would be very serious.

Representatives of the "traditional faction" in the Shinsengumi have already suffered heavy casualties. If sanctions are imposed on the "hardliners", it may be that after a massacre, only a few core cadres who do not choose sides can survive.

The upper and lower levels will inevitably become disconnected, and it may even lead to the collapse of the organization.

But now it is the "hardliners" who took the lead in raising the butcher's knife against their comrades-in-arms, causing many lives. The situation cannot be downplayed, and the "traditionalists" must fight back.

There are two evils in power, and we can only choose the lesser!

Therefore, in order to avoid the decline of the organization, Sougo Okita made a decisive decision to invite the mysterious master "Kojiro Manshiya" who happened to pass by to join the Shinsengumi.

He screened everyone away, invited Liu Yun into a small but gorgeous high-class living room on the ship, and solemnly issued a one-on-one commission.

……

"Mr. Kojiro, please agree, this is a commission I put my heart and soul into!" Okita Sougo blinked his starry eyes, humbly said sincere words, his delicate face was full of pleading, and he looked like he was ready at any time. Dedicated to the appearance of morality.

Liu Yun, whose alias is "Kojiro Wanshiwu", said without comment: "Although we have the same goal, we all want to cause trouble for Changdao Yixiangzong, but after all, I am just passing by, and it is unlikely that I will put down my original wealth and change my career. To Shinsengumi's business."

"No, no, you got it wrong." Okita Sougo shook his head quickly and explained: "A hero like you is just an ordinary cadre who seriously selects the team, of course it is too condescending. Long alternate join!"

"Ah...really?" Liu Yun was slightly surprised: "This is a bit flattering. How can I, a businessman passing by, become the leader of the Zhenxuan group? Let's hire someone else!" 2

"This is the result of my deliberation." Sougo Okita said earnestly: "Just now I found out that Team Leader Kondo's situation is very bad, and he probably won't be able to use a knife in the future. And now he can't find a suitable successor... The Shinsengumi has always had a practice of emphasizing talent rather than qualifications, dead fish eyes——I mean that guy Toshiro Hijikata was promoted to No. [-] within three years. Mr. Kojiro, your character and martial arts have been recognized It is very suitable to prove it. If it is guaranteed and recommended by me, I believe other people will be convinced."

Hearing the rumors, Liuyun thought it was absurd at first.

At any rate, the Shinsengumi is a large organization with hundreds of thousands of people, and it has a long tenure. How could it somehow invite a stranger to be the successor?

But following Okita Sougo's words, suddenly there was an invisible but very strange aura, which came from nowhere and quietly invaded his brain without warning.

Then there was a little collision with various supernatural powers in his body, and it took a lot of effort to be neutralized.

Liu Yun immediately understood that it was very likely that Okita Sougo had performed a subtle mental manipulation technique.

In an instant, he realized that the matter of the Zhensengumi was very complicated, and it was worth digging deeper, and it was not appropriate to tear his face immediately.

So Liu Yun nodded slightly, made a slightly moved expression, and asked: "Do you trust me that much?"

After hearing this, Sougo Okita's eyes flashed stars again, and he turned into a sickly, dog-licking, nympho fan, and said affectionately: "Of course I have great trust in Mr. Kojiro, no matter what request you make, They will never refuse!"

Liu Yun took half a step back, rejecting Okita Sougo's strong man Suo Nan's attitude, but at the same time he frowned in thought, showing an attitude of interest in this proposal.

Sougo Okita quickly struck while the iron was hot and continued to persuade: "This time our organization will definitely face huge risks, and we must have a strong enough hero as a leader to get out of the predicament. No matter what your real identity is, and no matter what your original foundation is, You can also serve as the next leader of the Shinsengumi. On the premise of not violating the purpose of the Shinsengumi, all our members can also fight for your original interests. Of course, I can completely dedicate my body and mind ..."

"Well, since we've come to this point, it doesn't seem very human to just refuse..." Liu Yun finally nodded: "Then let's try it according to your plan!"

"It's great!" Sougo Okita was overjoyed, his eyebrows were beaming, he knelt down and prostrated and said, "Then please accept my allegiance! In the future, whether you need to use it on the battlefield or in other occasions All you need is a command, both physically and mentally.”

"Hmm..." Liu Yun once again ignored the doorway of these strong men to lock men, and suddenly asked: "There is one thing I need to ask... that, how much do you know about the demon sword village Masa who tempted Hijikata Shiro to fall into the devil's way? What about it? Although I destroyed that knife just now, I still feel that the evil spirit around me has not been completely eliminated..."

Liu Yun intentionally raised this question.

On the one hand, it is to change the topic, and I don't want to see the nympho pretended by that guy Okita Sougo again.

On the other hand, I am really worried about the remnants of the demon sword.

Then, by the way, you can also test out what kind of details this Okita Sougo has.

"This..." Okita Sougo hesitated for a moment, frowned and said slowly: "I don't know much about the matter of Yaodao Village Asa..."

At this moment, a frightened voice suddenly came from outside the door.

One of Okita Sougo's subordinates hurried over and said through the paper door: "Something has happened, the two female relatives brought by Mr. Kojiro suddenly fought for some reason, and we can't stop it at all!"

Hearing this, Liu Yun was stunned.

Two female relatives?

Isn't that the Ikawa Asagi and Akiyama Rinko?Aren't they two good sisters for many years?Why did the fight suddenly break out at such a critical moment?

Chapter 215 Akiyama Rinko Corroded by Monster Qi

"Why is it always you! It doesn't matter if you become a cadre of Taimanin or be valued by Mr. Liuyun, why is it always not me!"

"Calm down, Rinko, there's no need to quarrel over such a thing, let alone...let alone in this kind of place..."

"Hmph! Is this the surplus of a winner? Is it to show a generous heart on purpose? Is it because of this that Master Liuyun pays attention to it?"

"What's wrong with you? It's not the Rinko I knew before! Wait... If you don't stop, I'll have to fight back!"

Hearing the news, Liu Yun hurriedly jumped out from the second-floor cabin and came to the deck.

Okita Sougo rolled his eyes and followed closely behind.

Then--

What caught my eye was the scene of two ladies fighting with knives.

To be precise, the single-tailed Akiyama Rinko was attacking furiously, while the black and straight Azaki Igawa just kept parrying and dodging.

It's not really a fight.

Akiyama Rinko's apricot eyes were round and her brows were upside down, her eyes seemed to burst into flames, and the sharp blade in her hand flew like the wind, hitting the opponent's neck, chest and abdomen continuously, it didn't look like she was joking at all.

Asaji Jinghe is obviously in the upper hand in strength, and she is especially good at body skills. She moves as fast as a falcon, and she is not worried about getting hurt for a while.But only defending but not attacking is at a disadvantage after all, very passive.

……

Seeing such a scene, Liu Yun was both very surprised and quite helpless, and immediately stepped forward, deceived into the light of the knife, grabbed Akiyama Rinko's waist and abdomen from behind, and then pointed to palms, slamming at the The right wrist of the girl holding the knife.

He was more concerned about preventing Miss Jinghe from being harmed, and he didn't worry too much about Akiyama Rinko's affairs, so he acted as fast as lightning, with a force exceeding a thousand junctures, without any hesitation in pity.

Then there was a crisp sound, Akiyama Rinko suffered from pain in her wrist, and with a muffled groan, she lost her strength and let go, and the dagger fell to the ground.

At the same time, he was held tightly from behind and could no longer move.

Liu Yun waved his sword vigorously and mercilessly, like a hammer swung by a Hercules, slashing fiercely on Akiyama Rinko's wrist.

Even if it is an ordinary person with a mortal body, it is not uncommon for a person with such an attack to lose his entire arm and faint.

Even Rinko Akiyama, who is good at martial arts, has been trained for a long time, and her physique is far superior to that of ordinary people. She was also cut with a thick and deep red mark. She groaned in pain and broke out in cold sweat on her forehead.

Only then did Liu Yun realize that he might have missed the point.

But just now Rinko Akiyama obviously fell into a state of madness and lost her mind. Holding a knife and desperately chasing Asagi Ikawa, it must be stopped with a heavy blow.

Excessive force is also unavoidable.

Liu Yun hugged the girl with the single ponytail from behind, ignoring the gentle fragrance, soft jade and orchid-like air, and immediately focused on the whole story.

Skin-to-skin contact, the "healing power" and "bewitching power" in the body were transmitted continuously, and it was immediately discovered that there was an abnormal and strange aura in Akiyama Rinko's body.

And this aura, as I expected, is very close to the strong demonic aura on the "Yaodao Village Masha" just now!

Therefore, it makes sense to say that when the demon knife was cut off earlier, I felt that there was still something left.

Having been in this world of strange powers and chaotic gods for many years, Liu Yun already understands that all the current monsters are transformed by some kind of resentment, or rely on some kind of resentment to survive.Even if the entity of the monster is destroyed, the corresponding resentment will still remain in Fusang, waiting for the next opportunity to gather and form.

Speaking of which, it should be when the demon knife village Masha was cut off, the obsession representing "jealousy" emanated and affected Akiyama Rinko.

In other words, the speed of taking effect is also faster. Could it be that this girl with a single ponytail has been suppressing very intense emotions in her heart?

Ugh……

What a sin.

What Liu Yun can do is to use the supernatural powers in his body to dissolve the remaining influence of the demon sword.

Although he didn't know what specific reactions would be produced by injecting the "power of healing" and "power of bewitching" into Akiyama Rinko's body, but the intuitive feeling is that it can be useful, and it does work after trying it.

Then try again.

At first, Akiyama Rinko was very excited and struggled desperately, but gradually she stopped trying to resist, and fell back, leaning against Liuyun weakly, docilely motionless, exhaling tired gasps from her mouth, her face was red and hot, oozing Sweat all over.

At this time, her eyes seemed to be out of focus, and her limbs had no strength at all.It's a bit like a situation where one's sanity has not yet fully recovered after recovering from a serious illness.
