Su Shuang's world is collapsing [Comprehensive]

The figure of Qianhe flashed out from beside Liu Quan, as if trying to go forward to help Shannan who was already crumbling.

"Mr. Shannan! That..."

... Chizuru? !When did she come back into the room? !

"Get out of the way, Chizuru!" Hijikata also realized what happened in an instant, and his violent drinking came from the side almost immediately.Liu Quan immediately reached out to grab Qianhe, but it was too late.

They watched Shannan's hair turn white.

Chizuru let out an exclamation.

"what--!"

The horrific scene of the night when Shan Nan drank Changruo Shui completely revived in Liu Quan's mind.Liu Quan's face changed, and he immediately wanted to rush forward and drag Qianhe back.

But it was almost exactly the same as that night, the speed of Shannan who became a Rakshasa was always ten times faster than her reaction speed inconceivably!He had already grabbed Qianhe's wrist like lightning!

An expression of pain appeared on Qianhe's face in an instant, as if her wrist bones were about to be crushed by Shannan.

Liu Quan knew what kind of terrifying power it was.The choke marks he left on her neck and wrists that night also disappeared completely after several days.

Chizuru cried out in pain.

"Okay, it hurts... Woohoo—Mr. Shannan?!"

What Shannan was holding was Qianhe's right arm, which was cut by the Rakshasa soldier just now.His blood-red eyes widened, as if attracted by Qianzuru's blood flowing all over his arm, he stretched out his other hand and touched Qianzuru's wound with his finger. to their own eyes.

"Blood...it's blood!" A strangely bright light flashed in his eyes for an instant, and his voice became heavy and severe.

"Please give me blood, please give me your blood..."

Chizuru screamed in panic.

"No, don't! Please, please let me go!"

Everyone else in the room seemed to be stunned by this scene, unable to react.

Liu Quan instantly thought of Shannan's right hand that was tightly strangling her throat that night.What does he want to do now?Is it just to suck Qianzuru's blood?Or was he planning to do something else—something crazy like that night, planning to take someone's life? !

She reacted first, and immediately raised the sword that was still in the scabbard horizontally, pointing the tip of the scabbard at Shannan's face, with a flick of her wrist, she stabbed straight at his eyes without hesitation.

The choice of this attack position is indeed very clever.First of all, her sword is not out of the sheath, so there is no need to worry that once it hits Shannan, it will cause permanent and irreversible damage; secondly, when the eyes of ordinary people are attacked, they will probably subconsciously withdraw their hands and back to avoid it, so that no matter whether she can hit Shannan , Chizuru's crisis can be resolved.

With a swish, almost instantly, the tip of Liu Quan's scabbard was already close to Shannan's glasses.It seemed that in the next second, her scabbard would shatter Shannan's lens.

But Shannan, who turned into a Rakshasa, used an unbelievably powerful force to defuse her move—he reached out his hand quickly, holding the scabbard just before it touched the lens.Liu Quan's forward thrust was dispelled in an instant, and she could no longer move the long sword forward an inch.

Liu Quan gritted his teeth, "...Damn it!"

She withdrew her hand abruptly.With a clang, the sharp long sword came out of its sheath again and was held in her hand.Shannan only had an empty scabbard in his hand.

At this time, the roar of the earth made the others wake up from the shock.

"Hurry up and subdue him! It doesn't matter if you are rough!"

Nagakura Heisuke immediately raised his sword.Harada also made a long/spear start.

"Don't blame me, Shannan-kun." He muttered like this.

"You can't let Chizuru be killed." Hirasuke also showed a serious and ruthless expression when facing a strong enemy.

Obviously, how Shannan attacked Liuquan after drinking Bian Ruo Shui, the narrative about the scene at that time has probably returned to everyone's minds by now.

Ito was still trying to gain a sense of presence beside him.

"You guys, are you going to give Shannan-kun to... I, Ito, will never allow such lawless things to happen!"

... It's ridiculous.Maybe it wasn't him who drove Shannan to the point where he went mad just now.Now he is upright and brave again, is he going to preside over the justice he thinks he is right here?

Liu Quan couldn't help but sneered in his heart, but on the surface he didn't dare to relax at all, and pointed the sword in his hand at Shannan.

Sure enough, since that day, no matter what the reason is, the knife in my hand seems to be pointing at you constantly, Mr. Shannan.

I failed to prevent you from becoming like this, and then it seems that I can no longer help you, because you seem to have rejected all the good intentions from others, and you are persistent and crazy wanting to turn into a Rakshasa, an evil ghost, Turned into a monster that only haunts the dark night——

You used to be such a gentle, stable, wise and calm person, Mr. Shannan.

……Why is this so.

Liu Quan didn't realize that there was a painful and sad expression on his face for a moment.

But Qianhe, who happened to be held hostage by Shannan and stood opposite her, was suddenly taken aback, as if he had discovered something.

Kondo came out in time to stop Ito.

"Ito-kun, it's very dangerous here, I'll leave it to Sui and the others, let's leave."

Kondo became tougher in a rare way, and forcibly hugged the struggling Ito tightly, obstinately ignoring Ito's cry, and dragged him away.

Seeing that Ito finally disappeared, everyone seemed to be relieved.

"I'm very grateful. I can take care of things here now." Harada stared at Shannan in front of him, and said with a stern expression.

Yongcang seemed a little hesitant.

"But, it's kind of..."

Hirasuke seemed to be trying to convince him, as well as his shaken self.

"Mr. Shannan is not that weak, let alone now..."

Their entanglement seems to be completely out of Shannan's attention.He casually threw the empty scabbard in his hand aside, his eyes fixed on the wet blood on Qianzuru's arm.

"Uh...yes, wanting blood...my body is craving blood!"

He suddenly raised Qianhe's arm, and looked at the blood on her arm with a very strange gaze.

This action inevitably stained Qianzuru's blood on his hands, so he showed a twisted smile, raised his hand, and slowly licked away the blood stained on his fingertips.

Liu Quan felt a chill and couldn't help shivering.

Everyone seemed to have been deeply shocked.Hirasuke roared.

"I can't bear it anymore! Let's do it, Shinpachi! Zuozhi!"

Harada replied simply: "Okay, let's do it again!"

At this time, the earth party stopped them suddenly.

"No, wait!"

He didn't draw his sword at Shannan from the beginning to the end, but just stood aside and observed Shannan's situation.At this moment, his brows were furrowed, but a thoughtful expression gradually appeared on his face.

Yongcang was a little puzzled. "What's wrong, Hijikata-san?!"

Tu Fang gave a simple explanation with a stern expression, "Shannan's appearance is a bit strange."

...Indeed, Shannan, who had just swallowed Qianhe's blood, had a strange and distressed expression on his face, his facial muscles twitched, and he let out a pained roar.

"Uh... ah ah ah!"

Nagakura's eyes widened in shock.

"Hey, hello... Shannan-kun, what's wrong with you?"

Under everyone's astonished gaze, Shannan's hair slowly returned to its usual black color.

"...um...um...what's wrong with me?"

There was still a hint of pain in his voice, but there was no doubt that he had regained his sanity.

Qianhe trembled, and tentatively called out: "...Mr. Shannan?!"

Shannan seemed to be more panicked than she was, and immediately withdrew the hands that were holding Qianhe, and took a step back.

"Xuecun... Jun, I, what happened to me...?"

Qianhe was overjoyed, "Great! You've woken up!"

Liu Quan let out a long breath, and with his free left hand pressed hard on the temple that suddenly started to twitch, feeling exhausted all over his body, and he didn't want to say anything anymore.

Harada stared at Shannan in amazement. "what happened?"

Yongcang beside him also looked confused. "You ask me, who should I ask?"

Hijikata's face didn't look any better either. "I don't know either……"

Shannan also had an expression of shock beyond his control.

"Really, I am also like them... have I gone crazy...?!"

His voice was trembling and painful, as if he couldn't believe this fact.

Chizuru looked at him carefully, choosing his words.

"But now, Mr. Shannan has recovered, although I don't know how he recovered..." She comforted Shannan awkwardly.

But Shannan didn't seem to feel any comfort at all.

"Why...? I myself... don't know..." He frowned, with panic and confusion on his face.

The local party came out to deal with the aftermath.

"I'll think about this later, but let's deal with the aftermath first. First deal with the corpse over there, and then clean the room."

Harada and the others immediately started to clean up the mess.

"Ah, this tatami is no longer usable." Harada said in a regretful tone.

Indeed, the tatami had been soaked with blood, and there were bloody footprints everywhere—more than half of them were stepped on by Liu Quan.

Yongcang looked at the partition that fell on the ground, and after a few minutes, he shook his head as if giving up.

"The partition fan here also needs to be replaced."

While the three of them were cleaning the battlefield, Liu Quan retrieved the scabbard that Shannan had thrown aside, put his own sword into the scabbard, put it back into his belt, walked up to Qianhe, and helped her up stand up.

"Also, you..." Hijikata turned to Chizuru.He seemed to be thinking about something, and looked directly at Qianhe who was just in shock.

As for Liu Quan who was standing beside Qianhe, he didn't pay much attention, as if she suddenly became a transparent person.

Qianhe immediately responded bravely: "Yes, I will help too."

Such a sensible reaction caused Hijikata to frown.

"The wounded should rest, let's take care of their health first."

He glanced back at Harada, Nagakura Heisuke who were busy, and continued with a headache: "That being said, this room is no longer usable..."

The garrison is always overcrowded, so a separate room is extremely rare, and there is no room available for Qianzuru.

Liu Quan thought for a while, and tried to propose: "... Otherwise, Qianhe will squeeze with me tonight and sleep in my room?"

This sentence made Hijikata turn his gaze to her.His eyes slid across her body, and after looking up and down, his brows frowned even tighter.

"You don't look much better, you two should take a good rest separately." He said impatiently.

"I, I'm fine, it's just because I fell..." Liu Quan tried to explain the source of the blood all over his body, but Tu Fang seemed to be too lazy to listen, and made a decision straight away.

"Qianzuru can use my room tonight."

The moment they heard this decision, the two girls seemed to be taken aback.

Chizuru asked hesitantly, "Is it okay to use Mr. Dojikata's room...?"

Tufang seemed very unhappy and replied: "There is no way, let's go!"

Qianhe was taken aback by this attitude again, agreed repeatedly, and was about to run outside.

Liu Quan paused, not knowing whether he should stay and help clean up the scene, or go back to the room to rest.

The earthworker raised his voice a little impatiently.

"Hey, Qing Yuan, what are you still doing standing there in a daze? Go back to sleep!"

That nasty attitude was like saying to her, "You violated the rules of the game, go to cut seppuku".

Liu Quan sighed.

"Yes." She replied, and when she was about to leave with Qianzuru, Hijikata added another sentence.

"You follow Qianhe to see her injury first, and then go back to your room to rest."

...So Liu Quan followed Qianhe to the deputy chief's room.

It really is the horror of the piles of documents.

You have to be careful not to touch or mess up anything in this room, or you will provoke a big move called [Vice Chief's Wrath].Liu Quan thought bitterly.

In fact, she knew very well that Qianhe, as a ghost, should have the ability to heal himself instantly. Although the wound looked deep and long, it was no longer bleeding.But this point, everyone still doesn't know it.

So Liu Quan intentionally made a serious gesture, and buried himself in tidying Qianhe's bedding, thereby giving her plenty of time to quickly re-wrap the bandage on her arm—as for the injury on her shoulder, of course it had already healed on its own; Quan simply pretended that he didn't notice it from the beginning to the end.

Looking at it now, Liu Quan's appearance was really worse. No wonder Tufang didn't believe her excuse that "she wasn't injured", and insisted on sending her back to rest.

After tidying up the bedding and losing the great opportunity to check Qianhe's injuries, Liu Quan and Qianhe looked at each other for a few minutes, each feeling a deep sense of exhaustion and powerlessness at the unbelievable encounter tonight.
