At night, in a dark alley in a certain town.

There was a man in gorgeous clothes, trembling, panicking, kneeling there in horror, while he was still moving forward and begging for mercy.

Who is he begging for mercy?
Horie Yue stood about ten meters away from him, looking at this man with a cold face.

To be precise, he was looking at the woman next to the man.

This woman was also dressed gorgeously, but she was lying on the ground at this time, her neck was bloody and bloody, and it seemed that she had been half-eaten, and she couldn't die anymore.

And the man who knelt down and begged for mercy had blood on his mouth.

What happened is self-evident.

The man knelt on the ground, begging for mercy to Horigake in the distance, with a miserable voice:

"I was wrong! I dare not do it again! Please spare me this time! Please!"

Horie Yue remained expressionless, just looking at him coldly.

"Forgive me! Forgive me! Please forgive me! I will change! I will... kill you together!"

Suddenly, the man's fierce face was revealed, and he turned into an evil spirit, charging towards Horiyake, and fiercely slaughtered Horiyue, trying to tear him to pieces!
Sighing lightly, Horigake took a step forward.

While taking a step forward, he stretched out the index finger of his right hand, the tip of the index finger flickered with purple arcs, and swiped lightly towards the side!
At this step, Horigake stepped out and stood on the ground, the purple arc between his index fingers disappeared.

Just that evil spirit.

The evil spirit stopped behind Horyue, his whole body was stiff and convulsed, staring at a pair of big light bulb-like eyes that were about to protrude, with an expression of disbelief.

Suddenly, the evil spirit's head fell to the ground without warning.

Because the section of the neck is extremely smooth, the head of this evil ghost falls naturally.

The evil spirit's body and head were only left with convulsive strength, and soon he began to disappear into ashes.

It can be seen that Horigake's strength has grown to a new level.

Before, when Horiyue killed these ordinary little ghosts, he needed to slap their heads with lightning flashing slaps, or he needed to cut them off directly with his unsheathed majesty.

Now, he doesn't even need to use the majesty around his waist, he can easily kill ghosts with just one finger and a touch of electric arc.

After the ghost was completely turned into ashes, Horigake stood on the spot, shaking his head helplessly:

"It's really a dog who can't change eating shit.

If you expect ghosts like you not to eat people, you might as well expect me to become a vegetarian!

There are only three ghosts in this world who really don't eat people..."

At this moment, a crow flew over in the dark night. The crow flapped its wings and shouted a new intelligence command:

"Master Horigake! Master Horigake!
There is new information about ghosts coming!There is new information about ghosts coming!
Please go to the northern mountains!Please go to the northern mountains!According to hunters in the northern mountains, there have been man-eating bears in the mountains recently! "

Horie stood on the spot, looking at the sky calmly.

Because of the dark clouds, neither the moon nor the stars can be seen, and the sky is just dark.

"How do you know it's a ghost?

It's winter now, wild beasts can't find anything to eat, and when they meet humans in the mountains, they are so hungry that they have to eat humans, which is also reasonable.

If I remember correctly, several people in Neon are eaten by bears every year. "

The crow landed on the eaves next to it, and explained to Horigake loudly:

"According to the hunters in the mountains, the man-eating bear has already eaten more than a dozen people! And the number of casualties is still increasing!

Bears in this season should almost go to hibernation after eating a few people, and they are still hurting people, which is obviously abnormal.

Sir Horigake, please go to the Northern Mountains to check. "

Horigake nodded:

"Have you eaten a dozen people?

That said, it's really not normal.

Well, I'll go to the northern mountains to see it. "

With that said, Horigake was about to leave.

Suddenly, Hori Yue had an idea, and felt that this mission seemed familiar.

etc!This feeling of deja vu... Could it be that I encountered the plot of the original book?

It's not right, according to the time, Tanjiro should still be training in Gyogiriyama at this time, there is no plot at all, it appears at this time!
But there are also man-eating bears in the northern mountains, which clearly give me a very similar feeling.

Forget it, let's go to the northern mountain range first, I believe everything will be understood when we get there.

Horigake followed the instructions of the crow and started to rush to the northern mountains.

The Northern Mountain Range, as the name suggests, is a stretch of mountains in the north of Neon.

And because it is winter, the climate here is cold, and the entire mountain range has been covered by heavy snow.

It's snowing, it's in the north, and it's winter. It's not clear whether this is Hokkaido or not.

After some time on the road, Horigake changed into thicker clothes before stepping onto the snow mountain.

After preparing measures to keep warm, Horigake went straight up the snow mountain and got into the bare and leafless snowy forest.

After walking for a long time during the day, walking forward in the snow with one foot deep and one foot shallow, Horie Yue couldn't help observing the situation of this mountain range.

It's really cold, and the snow is really not small.

In this environment, creatures like bears will hibernate in all likelihood.

Occasionally wake up, go out to look for food and hurt people very hungry, and there are not many people hurt. It is reasonable to say that it is less than a dozen lives.

I heard from the crow before that the man-eating bear here has already eaten more than a dozen people, so it seems to be a ghost.

After walking all the way in the snow, Horie couldn't help but look up at the sky.

The sky was covered with dark clouds, and there was no sunlight, and it seemed that it was going to snow again.

In this kind of ghostly weather, even if there are ghosts moving during the day, it is not surprising, because there is no sunshine at all.

Wait a minute!
Horie suddenly remembered something.

At the very beginning of the story, Tanjiro burns charcoal and returns home, only to find that his whole family has been killed and Nezuko has turned into a ghost.

That day, it seemed to be daytime, it seemed to be covered with snow, and it seemed to be in the mountains!

Could it be...

Could it be that Tanjiro's home is in this northern mountain range!

This kind of thing is not impossible!
After having this idea, Horigake came up with many more ideas.

One of the most important thoughts is about the blue Bana flower!

In his previous life, Horiyue saw two kinds of arguments about the blue Higan flower on the Internet.

The first one is what Horigake and Tanjiro’s family mentioned before. The blue higan flower comes from Tanjiro’s mother’s hometown, and Tanjiro’s mother mixed it into wild vegetables, brought them home, and made them into meals for the family to eat. up.

There is another argument, which is more straightforward.

This kind of argument shows that the blue higan flower simply grew near Tanjiro's house.

Tanjiro and Nezuko, brother and sister, probably ate blue Higan flowers by mistake when they were playing near their home when they were young.
