The years when I was the pillar of the Ghost Killing Squad

Shiyu didn't know why he was able to touch Yuanyi all of a sudden, but he didn't have the heart to think about it at the moment.

The body in his arms was trembling uncontrollably, Shi Yu hugged the young man in his arms tightly, and tightly covered his eyes with his right hand.

"Don't look, Yuanyi"

"Yuanyi, don't look at it"

"sorry"

if i could show up sooner

"sorry"

If only I could have told you about the ghost sooner

"sorry"

If I didn't just regard you as a person in a dream, if I didn't deliberately alienate you

"I'm sorry, Yuanyi, I'm sorry"

There was a sudden moist touch from the palm, and the person in his arms stopped trembling, but the right hand covering the young man's eyes kept getting wet liquid from the fingertips slowly oozing drop by drop.

Shi Yu built a grave for Ge, but when he was about to put Ge's body in the grave, Yuan Yi held Ge's body and refused to let go. No matter how Shi Yu persuaded him, he remained indifferent.

In the end, Shiyu had no choice but to knock him unconscious with a fist, and buried Ge in the grave while Yuanyi passed out.

When Yuanyi woke up, he didn't cry or make a fuss, and he didn't drag Shi Yu to yell hysterically. He just sat quietly in front of Ge's grave, staring blankly at the simple tombstone.

He sat in front of Ge's grave for ten days. For ten days, he didn't eat a bite of food, drink a drop of water, and didn't sleep for a second. Shiyu tried to feed him, but he was like a wooden man. When the food came to his mouth, he would not open his mouth to take a bite, even if Shi Yu stuffed the food into his mouth with force, he would not chew it.

After Ge left, Yuanyi's soul seemed to have left with her, and what was left in this world was just an empty shell.

Shi Yu threw away all the food and water in his hands, and sat beside Yuan Yi, guarding the tombstone with him for ten days.

On the tenth day, a man came up the mountain, but before Shi Yu had time to see his face clearly, he fainted from hunger.

When Shi Yu woke up, the first thing he saw was a head of golden and red hair.

"Xing Shourou?"

Shigu looked at the person in front of him with some doubts, why was Xingjulang in his room?

Could it be that he slept Xing Shoulang too?

No, this doesn't seem to be his room

Shi Yu observed the unfamiliar layout around him, and determined that this was not his room, nor that of Giyong or Sato.

"Yo, you're awake."

"Xing Shou Lang" walked towards Shi Yu with a bowl of porridge.

No, it's not Xing Julang, the voice and age don't match

Shi Yu stared at the opposite young man who was more or less similar to Xing Shou Lang, frowning slightly.

I never heard that Anjurou has other brothers besides Senjurou.

Could it be that the drunkard uncle sowed the seeds when he was having a good time outside? !

Moreover, this person looks several years older than Xing Shoulang, so he should be the seed sown by the alcoholic uncle a few years ago.

Well, Makijuro, that old alcoholic, has always presented an image of being loyal to his wife and unswervingly infatuated. He didn't expect that there would be such a big illegitimate child behind his back.

The young man on the opposite side didn't know what was going on in Shi Yu's mind, so he handed the porridge in his hand to Shi Yu, "Eat, you haven't eaten for a long time."

Smelling the tempting aroma emanating from the steaming bowl of vegetable porridge in front of him, Shi Yu's stomach reflexively let out a long growl of "Gu~", and then he remembered that he hadn't eaten for ten days up.

correct

Shi Yu suddenly remembered something.

"What about Yuanyi?"

Thinking of Yuanyi, Shi Yu immediately got up from the bed, a sense of powerless dizziness hit him suddenly, Shi Yu's eyes suddenly went dark, and he fell back on the bed again.

Shi Yu lived for more than 20 years, and this was the first time he was in such a mess. If Shenwei found out that he passed out because of being too hungry, he was appointed to be laughed at by that guy for a year.

But at this time, he didn't care about Shenwei's reaction after knowing this. He remembered that Yuanyi was still outside.

"After that guy carried you in, he went back to the original place and sat there. I ignored me when I talked to him, and refused to eat when I told him, as if he had lost his soul."

The young man who looked very similar to Xing Jurou whispered.

"It's just a lost soul."

Shi Yu sighed, stood up and took the steaming bowl of vegetable porridge from the youth, and walked towards the door.

"Hey, where are you going? You can't go to the ground yet."

Shi Yu didn't seem to hear his words, and went straight out of the door, and came to Ge's grave, and Yuan Yi was still sitting there motionless.

"Yuanyi."

Shi Yu took a deep breath, and spoke to the young man sitting in front of the grave in as calm a tone as possible.

"The song is dead."

The youth didn't respond.

"I know you're sad, but dead people never come back."

Shi Yu looked up at the clear sky above his head, and recalled that on that rainy day when it was pouring heavily, Kagura stood timidly behind him holding an umbrella, and asked him sadly, "Where is Mommy? She will come back soon." Bar?"

"Mother went to a place far, far away, and she will never come back."

Shigure gently wiped away the tears on Kagura's face, and held the little girl in his arms, "But I'm still here"

"I am still here."

Like he did to Kagura many years ago, this time he held Enichi in his arms and comforted him softly.

The young man's body trembled a little, and Shi Yu handed over the vegetable porridge in his hand, "We are full, let's go take revenge together."

The word "revenge" was too unfamiliar to Yuan Yi, but he didn't say anything, and took the porridge from Shi Yu's hand without saying a word.

Yuanyi's soul came back, but those eyes, as clear as obsidian, finally dimmed after the light left.

After popularizing the knowledge about "ghosts" to the two, this young man who looks very similar to Anjurou invites Shigu and Yuanyi to join the ghost killing team.

The young man introduced himself that his name was Purgatory Momojuro, Shigure would not be so stupid as to treat him as Makijuro's illegitimate son, it seems that Momojuro should be the ancestor of the purgatory clan.

While Shi Yu kept stuffing food into his mouth, he communicated with Tao Jurou vaguely, "Have you become a pillar of fire now?"

"Flame Pillar? What is that?"

Momojuro looked at Shigure with some puzzlement.

Shigure paused for a moment while chewing food, and he suddenly remembered that Yoya told him that before the appearance of the Breath of the Sun, members of the Demon Slayer Team did not know how to breathe, so naturally there is no concept of "pillar" at this time .

Shi Yu calmly swallowed a mouthful of food, faced Tao Shoulang's questioning eyes, and lied solemnly, "It means that Yanzhu is the strongest in my hometown, so I mean, have you become a ghost?" Killing team is the strongest?"

It is obvious that the upright single-cell of the Purgatory Clan is inherited from the ancestors. Tao Julang did not doubt Shigure's words at all, but felt a little embarrassed when he heard his explanation. Does it look like the strongest here?"

No no no, not at all.

Shigu waved his hands frantically from the bottom of his heart, and then he looked at the silent Yuanyi beside him, he was still taciturn, and he just listened quietly to the conversation between Shigure and Momojuro, without any concern at all. means to get involved.

Speaking of the strongest, Yuan Yi is the strongest swordsman of the Demon Slayer Squad.

Yetu is a born fighter, and when he meets a strong opponent, he will instinctively want to challenge him, but Shi Yu has no intention of fighting this strongest swordsman at all.

Shi Yu sighed silently in his heart.

The matter came to an end temporarily, and Shigure finally had time to think about why he appeared here.

Speaking of which, the source of everything started when Yaoya mentioned "the creator of the sun's breath" to him.

After hearing the deeds of "Breath of the Sun", he has been longing to fight this strongest swordsman 400 years ago. Perhaps it is because he thinks about it day by day and dreams about it at night, but his too strong obsession actually permeates into the dream During that time, he has been having that somewhat strange serial dream since then, in which he met a little boy named "Yuanyi".

It's just that at that time he didn't know that Yuanyi in his dream was the "Breath of the Sun" that he had always wanted to fight against.

I don't know if it's because the history of "Breath of the Sun" is too long or for other reasons, but there is very little information about him. All Yaoya knows is that he is very powerful and created the beginning Breathing techniques, and the things that once drove Onimai Tsujimi to a desperate situation.

No one knows why he joined the Demon Killing Squad, and how he created the Breath of the Sun. Probably everyone who knew him praised him to the altar. In their perception, this Breath of the Sun The creator is a noble and powerful being like a god.

But in Shi Yu's eyes, Yuan Yi is not a god, but a living person with flesh and blood and feelings. He witnessed his birth and growth in his dream.

Although it is true that his feelings are naturally weaker than ordinary people, he is not without feelings.When Shi Yu gave him wisteria flowers, Yan Sheng gave him a flute made by himself, and his mother gave him earrings for praying for peace, he would feel happy.Shi Yu deliberately alienates him, and if Yan Sheng doesn't come to play with him, he will feel lost.He will be sad when his mother dies.Song's death, he would feel hopeless.

These are his feelings. Before "Breath of the Sun" and "The Strongest Swordsman", he was Ji Guoyuanyi, a living human being with flesh and blood and emotions.

And the first person to deny this was Shi Yu who had witnessed all of this.

His deliberate alienation indirectly caused Yuanyi to embark on the path of "breath of the sun", step by step towards the legendary altar.

Shi Yu may not be able to stop him from walking towards the altar, but he can expand this lonely road that can only be walked by one person into a spacious road that can accommodate two people walking side by side.

This is compensation, but also a promise.

Until you completely end the tragedy of this world, I will always be by your side and walk with you on the lonely road to becoming a god.
