sleepless night

Sometimes a commitment is always difficult.Especially when it comes to lifetime commitments.A lifetime is so long, it takes some courage to make a firm promise.

But the frozen air powder snow did not think so much.She never likes to think too much with her brain.She likes Qishi and doesn't want to be separated. She believes that she will not change, so she said "until the end of life".

But the situation is not something that can be changed by making a promise like Fenxue.Neither is Qishixin.They are still living in troubled times, even precarious.Not to mention feelings, Rong Qishi has never even seen through life and death as an instinct.But she knew she couldn't escape some battles after all.If everything is over, maybe she will still think about those erotic things.But definitely not now, now, she couldn't give an answer.

"Taketori is finally about to take action, and the holy decree has returned. A full-scale war will begin soon. But the most important people among them are still silent." Hayase Qianxia has become a star in everyone's eyes during this time The magic stick, always talking about something in the corner alone.But Qishi knows that this is a divination method exclusively used by astrologers.

And very accurate.

"You come at this time, it seems that there is something that bothers you. What are you hesitating about?" Hayase seemed to have expected Nanami's visit long ago.Her expression was indifferent, and the puppet on her shoulder greeted Qishi politely.

Nanami, who changed into a deep black kimono, looked more calm, but her expression became more cold and cold: "My last war is in the not-too-distant future. Death is with me. What else do I have to let go of?" Can't let go?"

"Then you can only ask yourself." There was a mocking smile on Hayase's pretty face.But the curved eyebrows made her bright and cunning eyes like a fox look even more charming. "The answer is so difficult that it's not obvious enough?"

Nanami didn't answer, but glanced at the puppet on Hayase's shoulder.That glance was obscure, but Hayase could understand it.

——It was a kind of indescribable admiration and helplessness.

Can neither accept nor refuse.A fact that cannot be denied even with a hard heart.

The civil strife in the shogunate and the anti-tail organization formed by Taketori and other samurai broke out in a war of resistance.It is even more important at this time.At least more important than personal emotions and thoughts.

Rong Qishi never thought of herself as an important person, she only thought about the unfinished confrontation with Qihua and the final breakup with herself.

At this time, Qishi hardly considered the matter proposed by several leaders of Taketori to let Qishi and Fenxue go to the castle tower together.Although she can't make a decision for Fenxue, she can use herself as a guide.

Even if Fenxue was silently rejected by her, she was still unwilling to leave her side.Thinking of it this way, Qishi had no choice but to continue lamenting that she was really a sinful woman.

But even if it is sinful, she admits it.After all, apart from Fenxue, if anyone else, including Qihua, knew her in this way, she would feel more at ease.Only powder snow.The appearance of that girl following her everywhere makes one feel a kind of lingering affection that cannot be discarded.The lingering is so tender and beautiful that everything sinful becomes a little emotional.Even a woman as cold as Qishi would feel a little discomfort.

This discomfort comes from guilt.

"In the end, you still didn't choose a side." Hayase found Qishi that day, and it was a sign of resentment and questioning.In fact, when it was observed through Fallen Records that Nanami was likely to be an important figure in this game of fate, Hayase decided that Nanami would choose Taketori, who was more biased towards "public opinion".But Qishi has never made a statement.This attitude is somewhat intriguing.

But Qishi refused to explain.Even for her, whether it is the Owari Shogunate or the Taketori Shogunate, she does not think that she needs to bear the expectations and happiness of the people of a country on her shoulders.She is not that kind of person.Her father is the so-called "big hero", but he wanted to kill his daughter with his own hands, but was eventually killed by his son.

The end of the big hero is usually not very good.

"I believe you already have a choice. I can't be your reference." Qi Shi remained calm.Even if there is some procrastination on the issue of dealing with feelings.Of course, whether you are strong or not has a lot to do with your own mood, but it is not the most important.

If the final battle with Qihua will change the current situation, Qishi is still imperative.She won't change her decision for anyone.

But whether Hayase or Crohn, they are closer to mortals and more emotional.Especially Hayase, who is born with the ability to see part of the coming future.This ability is not a good thing.Especially, when the most turbulent and chaotic fate comes.

After this war officially started, everyone in this country could not avoid it, and all fell into a fierce vortex, unable to get out.

Even though Qishi was still quietly waiting for her final destiny in silence, Fenxue, the little tail who was determined to follow all the time, did not sit still.She knew that Qishi didn't care about life and death, but just wanted to end her obsession.But everything is so simple.As long as it is a human being with emotions, he cannot avoid being caught in a dilemma.Especially when faced with unavoidable choices.

"Are you going to the battlefield too? Aren't you afraid of death?" Kraun blushed, but couldn't deny Fenxue's ridicule.But in the next second, there was a warm hug from Fenxue and a gentle "thank you" in my ear.In an instant, there was a little urge to cry.He knew he wasn't brave enough or even clever enough.He is used to wandering among various powerful forces, trying to keep himself alive.But he also has his own goals and dreams.He wants to go to a place that can hold everything for him.At first he thought that place would be Taketori.

But it wasn't until he got to Taketori that Kraun could confirm this.The place he wants to go has always been by his friend's side.A friend who can cry and laugh together and travel together.This is his recognition of powder snow.

This little girl, apart from her simplicity and dead-headedness, is actually a guy worth fighting for.

"But have you made your choice?" Kraun looked at Fenxue's little face that was about to wrinkle into a ball, somewhat worried.He knew Fenxue's feelings for Qishi, and even could see that Qishi was hesitating.But all love between children is illusory in a cruel war.Qishi will fight for her own obsession, so what about Fenxue?If you choose for Qishi's choice, will you really not regret it?

Powder Snow was silent for a while.For her, freedom and happiness are almost equally important things.But it wasn't until she was rejected silently by Qishi that she realized that freedom and happiness would be bound by emotions.

"The last battle is the castle tower." That place seems to have a special meaning.This is true for many people.Qihua even lost the most important person in her life there.

Will everything come to an end there?But what if the ending was something she couldn't bear?What if Qi Shi dies and cannot be rescued again?

Powder snow resists even making these assumptions.

Crane could see Powder Snow's pain.After all, that woman is so special, and it is understandable that Fenxue cannot extricate herself once she falls into it.This battle is inescapable for anyone, so there is nothing to do but face it bravely.

"Actually, after Miss Xiaoju met you, there was something she wanted to deliver to you. But before that, you only had Qishi in your heart. So I kept this thing for you. Maybe now, it's time to give it to you. .” Crane hesitated for a long time.In fact, when Xiaoju gave the thing to Kraun, he refused.But at that time, there was deep sadness in Xiaoju's eyes, which also showed that she couldn't control the most suitable timing.

Perhaps, the best time is when the choice comes, when it is no longer possible to escape.

"It was at Qingliang Temple. Mr. Tachibana died at that time, but he hid this letter under the Buddha of the Sword. It was written to you and Master Qishi. I don't know the content, but I guess, he probably also It’s a pity that I can’t see you again.”

Kraun watched Fenxue take the envelope with trembling hands, and his eyes were red before he opened it.He knew that he should leave some personal space for Fenxue, but he still couldn't help saying: "Maybe he expected this scene a long time ago. Don't be too sad. Maybe he will give you some hints to choose."

Whether Mr. Orange was a wise man or not, Crohn could not say for sure.But he can be sure that that great man must know these two women better than anyone else.He spent a lot of time on these two people, except for Xiaoju, he was the one who spent the longest time with Fenxue.

What would that letter... be about?

When Fenxue opened the letter, what caught her eyes was Mr. Tachibana's unattractive handwriting. Maybe it was written carelessly during the confrontation with the shogunate army. It was a bit hasty, but the emotion revealed inadvertently was still sincere and gentle.

[Fenxue and Qishi kissed:

Sorry, maybe I'm breaking my word.About the goodbye thing.I am really worried about you guys.Qishi, the demon in your heart is so complicated and difficult to get rid of. Apart from death and rebirth, I can't think of any way to make you let go of your obsession.But with powder snow by your side, it will change you somewhat.As for powder snow, you are a good girl.No matter how I comment, what I want to say the most is that you are a kind and good girl.You deserve and deserve the best.Don't wrong yourself.No matter how you choose your future, don't wrong yourself.Looking forward to you, blooming your own, most beautiful appearance.It's a pity that I can only see you again in the next life. 】

turn out to be.Mr. Orange said not to wrong yourself.Fenxue understood the reason why she burst into tears.But her eyes slowly burst into a firm and dazzling light.
