"The times and people's hearts have problems..."
Next, the strongest swordsman at the end of the curtain picked up the sword that he couldn't take. The moving sword...
——The first act full of tension always makes people excited with anticipation. However, I realized later that the fate of Kenshin was nothing but the repetition of this beginning: the one who wanted to save others with his kindness and compassion was actually the one who was most vulnerable. As Katsura Kogoro said: The heart has not changed and remains pure and flawless - such a knife is sharp enough - but a sharp knife is always easy to break.
The function of the scabbard is to bind the knife, but also to protect the knife.
Even if he died, even if he was wounded by a knife...
Ba came to Kyoto during the cherry blossom season, and before parting, he saw the withered and cracked "physalis" flower basket in front of his house, with great regret. Maybe at this moment Ba began to decide to take revenge, or maybe Ba just didn't want to live anymore...
In May, Ba and Kenshin met for the first time, the rain was still falling, and there were iris flowers by the road.
In fact, Ba has never firmed up the idea of revenge. The name of this part is "Lost Cat", and there is a song in the OST called "Japanese Lost ~ Restoration No Ma" - a short knife that I carry around with me, but it is a delusional one in troubled times. Rely on, always use hatred to prove the meaning of their existence - but in fact, in the end, it is Ba who really wakes up, and it is here that the true meaning of the calamus flower is revealed, whether it is revenge or justice, in troubled times What an individual seeks is actually only one's own happiness, a love that can eliminate hatred and frenziedness, so Jian Xin must have learned it from Ba.
It's a pity that the era only remembers the famous "Thousand People Kill", but does not remember how the cross wound was drawn. Death looks redder than blood and whiter than snow, but mistakes are always repeated over and over again. Just one person, one sword and one word "don't kill" can save the weak, but it cannot wake them up. The sadness and guilt in this are just the same. Enough to consume his entire life.
The last evening madder, kite flying snow dance, is so out of tune with this chaotic world. Tragedy has long been doomed. For Ba, the end of happiness is also the beginning of happiness, and finally there is no more pain; for Jian Xin, it is a sin that must be redeemed in a lifetime, until many years later, the cross wound finally faded... ...another scabbard story...
Even the strongest swordsman should hold his saber while sleeping. The so-called "wielding the sword for the happiness of the world" was just a simple dream at that time - the sword His heart saw Qingli's desire to survive, but he didn't see that this sword was not the end of the troubled world, but just a man's resentment and a woman's sadness.
At the end of the story, Gui Xiaogoro also knows that Kenshin has been pushed into the abyss of self-guilt, "The flying sword should not be used to end troubled times, but should be used to protect the new era." Practicing the so-called way of doing things for the sky requires countless sacrifices - not only those souls who died under the Flying Sword, but also the owner of the Flying Sword, Kasumi Kogoro, Takasugi Shinsaku, and later Okubo Toshitsu...
——All Everyone who lived in that turbulent era, what kind of mikoshi was there? !
Whether Kenshin, the patriots of the Changzhou domain, the Shinsengumi of the shogunate or Annotake, they all think that they are using violence to create and protect the era, but from the very beginning, Kiyojuro Koo made it very clear:
" What do you do when you walk into that troubled world alone? If you want to change this troubled world, you have to join one of the forces, but in other words, you will be used by power. I didn't teach you the Sword Master for that reason... The sword is a weapon, and swordsmanship is a trick to kill. No matter how beautiful an excuse is used to cover it up, it is always the truth. Before I saved you, I killed hundreds of bad people, but bad people are also people, they just want to do their best in this troubled world Go on, if you devote yourself to the troubled world, you can only be driven by all kinds of incompatible justice, killing each other incomprehensible, and Yu Jianliu will make you kill countless people-"
Politicians can always find various kinds of murders. The reason is to wash away the blood that splattered on himself, but unfortunately, as a swordsman, Kenshin has inherited the calm introspection of his master. Some people say that in history, there are actually only partisan disputes, and there is no distinction between loyal and traitor-compared to those revolutionaries who want to set fire to Kyoto, what kind of "killing a thousand people" is Kenshin?
History is the biggest unsolved case. For future generations, the more they know, the less they know the truth. And those participants and witnesses usually don't know whether they are the murderer or the victim. What they can confirm is only the bloodstains on their hands...
