Gui had some ideas and decided to try something.
Du Lan left him to think by the river and went to the Shinsengumi. Now the Shinsengumi was being haunted. Many witnesses saw a female ghost with a red face and white clothes haunting the place. She looked as scary as a red Sadako.
There are ghosts in this world. Of course, sometimes ghosts are just celestial beings, but sometimes they can also be energy life, or electronic life.
In short, from the perspective of humans, this is indeed a characteristic of ghosts, an existence beyond human understanding.
There is a video circulating in Kabukicho that after watching it, you will definitely die within seven days. But in fact, the Sadako in it is completely obsessive-compulsive, and it is easy to be passive and sabotage.
But humans cannot understand a living being that lives in a television and can come to reality from the television.
For things you don't understand, it's easiest to think that they are ghosts and gods.
The ghost of the Shinsengumi is actually not a real ghost, but a celestial being, but she likes to suck blood, especially the blood of strong-blooded men. The Shinsengumi lacks everything but men, so it lurks here to suck blood.
Witnesses saw a white figure flashing past, which was actually a celestial being, because this kind of celestial being has red skin and a haggard face. It looks like the unjust ghosts in human stories. But in fact, it is a celestial being.
Can be destroyed physically.
Any fear comes from lack of firepower. As long as you know that the enemy can be destroyed with firepower, the next thing to do is to increase the firepower.
Dulan saw their timid appearance and thought that the Shinsengumi was indeed an organization established by a group of feudal warriors, and it was not scientific at all. Logically speaking, the shogunate had cooperated with the gods, and there should be a lot of scientific equipment to deal with the crimes of the gods, but
Nothing can be seen here.
If you want to see science, you can only see it at the Metropolitan Police Department level. There are battleships, research institutes, and all kinds of information.
"I'm very surprised. As an agency of the shogunate, why do you first suspect ghosts and gods instead of heavenly beings when you encounter strange events? Logically speaking, you should know that heavenly beings are diverse and diverse. It is not strange to have ghost-like heavenly beings.
.Why don't you ever suspect that the shadow in white clothes and red face is a lurking heavenly being?" Duran came to the True Selection Group and asked a question.
Everyone looked at each other, obviously thinking, why didn't they think of this?
"Could it be a heavenly being?" Isao Kondo asked blankly.
"It's possible." Hijikata Jushiro said.
Okita Sougo immediately dismissed the blame and said: "It's all that guy Yamazaki's fault for making such a fuss. He said he saw a monster, but now it turns out he is indeed a deity."
Several people changed their attitudes instantly, saying that they might indeed be heavenly beings, and pretended that they had doubts from the beginning, but they were led away.
"Stop pretending." Dulan said: "When you encounter strange things, you don't doubt heaven and earth from the beginning. This means that you are still thinking like country warriors and have not entered the cosmic age." "But these are not very important.
, I came here hoping to tell you some serious things, about the internal and external troubles that exist in the Shinsengumi. I wonder if you have noticed that the Shinsengumi is about to be finished."
If you want others to listen to you, you have to be sensational, and you have to say things that are not shocking.
"What are you talking about?" Hijikata Jushiro said.
"I've seen it in the game before. Isao Kondo, you want to protect your companions, but who are your companions? Is it the samurai who went into the city with you, the samurai who established the Shinsengu group together, or all the people in the Shinsengu group?
warrior?"
"Of course everyone." Isao Kondo regards everyone in the Shinsengumi as his companions.
"Then it's over." Duran shook his head and said.
"How could it be over? The team leader treats everyone equally, how could it be over?" Hijikata Jushiro said.
"It's just like the stepmother. If the stepmother is not as good as the biological mother, she will be said to be a vicious stepmother. If the stepmother is the same as the biological mother, it is a matter of course. The stepmother must be better than the biological mother in order to be recognized by others." Kondo
Xun is the stepmother to the new samurai who join the Shinsengumi. If he just treats them equally, he will not be able to impress the newcomers. He must show extra care to the newcomers, but in this case, the old companions will be angry and think that one is favored over the other."
Duran said: "Now there is a rift between the two forces within the Shinsengumi. It is caused by treating everyone equally, and it is caused by Kondo Isao's emphasis on his companions."
"Isn't it wrong to value your companions?" Isao Kondo was dumbfounded.
"There is nothing wrong with paying attention to companions, but it can only be done on a small scale. There are nearly a hundred people in the True Selection Group. What we need is not companions, but comrades. How many people can you get to know deeply by yourself? I think the only people you have got to know deeply are those who went to the city together.
Companions, they only have a superficial understanding of the samurai they meet later, and have no understanding of their experiences, let alone their personalities and needs."
Kondo Isao was silent. It was true. He had a lot of official duties. Many times, even the training was left to Hijikata Jushiro. He was busy and had no time to chat with everyone. The one he knew best was Jushiro Hijikata.
Lang and Zongwu realized it, but the others only remembered one name.
Although they are companions, they understand each other differently, so how can we say they treat them equally? In the end, this is just words.
When Du Lan said this, Isao Kondo fell silent.
Even Hijikata Jushiro and Okita Sougo were silent, because what Duran said was not nonsense, but objective reality and could not be refuted.
"So companions are only on a small scale, and comrades are on a large scale. Proposing a program and calling on like-minded people to work together is the path to a manly man. This decadent shogunate, this cruel universe, needs a beam of light, a beam of light
The light that pierces the darkness." Duran said passionately: "The Shinsengumi should use their own swords to cut through the darkness and guide the direction. They should roar at this old and corrupt world, and if they don't explode in silence, they will die in silence."
Everyone thinks that Duran wants them to rebel? They are a real group. Although there are many anti-barbarian warriors from Zhao'an, they still eat the imperial food after all.
But if they were really asked to protect the shogunate, neither the samurai in Zhao'an nor the samurai in the countryside wanted to do so. It was because of the corruption of the shogunate that they had to leave their hometown, and they also saw all kinds of oppression and violence in Edo.
Oppression and protecting such a shogunate are really not worth it. They work for the shogunate just because they need a decent job, but it doesn't mean they really want to protect the shogunate.
The program of the Shinsengumi? There is none at all. It is difficult to oppose the shogunate, and it is also difficult to protect the shogunate, so we can only protect our companions and hug each other for warmth. But the problem is that the concept of companions is too narrow. To become companions, you must trust and understand each other.
, this requires a series of costs such as time cost, trial and error cost, etc. Isao Kondo can't pay it at all, so he can only talk about it verbally, but others are not stupid, and they won't believe it if you say it verbally.
If you don't believe it, there will be suspicion. If there is suspicion, there will be internal strife.
The Shinsengumi is also constantly recruiting new people, and these newcomers may be the last straw that brings down the Shinsengumi.
The word "companion" sounds very nice, but it cannot stabilize an organization at all. In a small way, with a few people, it is indeed possible to establish a companionship relationship, but once the number of people increases, companionship is no longer useful.
Du Lan left them speechless, thinking that he should continue to share his ideas and transform the Shinsengumi. Transform them into a villain organization, which looks glamorous on the surface, but hides evil secretly. Let's make a clear repair.
