On how to get to the top with multiple jobs

"I can not do it……"

"It was your eyes that blinded you." The young insect master gently put a black cloth over her eyes, and said to her, "Now, show the way for your family."

.

Walk through twisting corridors and through twisted rooms.

"Are you there?" Sensitively aware of the disappearance of the footsteps, Mother Spider's ears twitched slightly.She waited for tens of seconds, but Tanjirou Kamado, who always responded in a timely manner, did not speak to her, so she took off the black cloth and looked around——

Behind him was an almost endless corridor surrounded by walls on the left and right, just walls.

It's a one-way street, and the road is only ahead.Do you still need guidance on such a road?But the two people who came here knew that it was extremely difficult to come to this road, because they no longer knew how many detours they took.

Kamado Tanjirou sighed silently while looking ahead, his voice was like the wind, the kind of breeze accompanied by drizzle, he said: "This is the end of the endless corridor."

"I don't understand……"

"Do you remember how I described Jing Zhongxing?"

"Remember." Mother Spider nodded.

People trapped by Jing Zhongxing will fall into overlapping time and space.In this time and space, there is nothing but him and the scenery he is most familiar with.

"So, the scenery presented in Jing Zhong Xing is actually a person's inner appearance."

Kamado Tanjiro is available only when ordered.He didn't go on.But the mother spider who has been with him for some time has already understood what he said.

In this house full of life, there are study rooms, toy rooms, bedrooms and halls arranged around the corridor.

But after the long corridor runs through, there is still an end in the labyrinth-like space.

Does home have an end?

Yes, this is the problem.Mother Spider suddenly understood something.Yes, home has no end.Even though she was only five or six years old when she became a ghost, she still vaguely retains some memories about her family.

The home in memory is always warm, a safe haven with a reassuring atmosphere.The space between people is separated by thin walls, and they can get close to each other with peace of mind if they touch each other.

Is there an end to such a place?

They both stood silently at the door for a moment.

Then what kind of person would tell himself deep down: home is the end of existence?

Mother Spider felt a little ridiculous.She said in disbelief: "—but, this is tiring."

It is tiring to form a family by yourself, prepare to play a role for everyone, and always oppress people with high pressure quietly.

Kamado Tanjiro didn't speak, he just pushed the door open in silence.

The house was brightly lit, a light that even the dark night of sleep could not conceal.And this place is completely different from the bright and clear atmosphere in the room - just because it is completely dark, and this is the only dark corner in the whole room, there are not even tiny fireflies here.

Kamado Tanjiro's throat was already very hoarse, but the scene here made his already aching throat even more uncomfortable. He looked at the boy standing in the room, and said in a low voice as if sighing: "Tired."

Tired stood there quietly, not knowing what to think.

The candlestick in his hand had been extinguished long ago, and the wax dripped on the ground had solidified, and he stood there as a silent person.

"It's time to go back, I'm tired." Kamado Tanjiro said.

Tired looked up.

What is that sparkle in his eyes?Why does it shine so brightly in this sleeping room?

He said dryly: "—I want to stay with my family."

The floor of the room was covered in blood, and then two people whose faces could not be seen lay down on the blood.There was a candlestick that fell on the ground, and the solidified wax oil floated on it and blended with blood.Messy bedding, cold starlight.

Sometimes you don't need to ask so much.Because the truth of the matter seems to no longer matter, you can naturally let go of the past, welcome new family members happily, and start a new family.Those masks will hide the unbearable past, and you will become a person who makes you satisfied again.

But once the mask is removed, the dormant tenderness will rush forward.Do you regret everything you did when you think about it?

It's fine as long as you don't care.

It's fine as long as you don't think about it.

But I'm tired of thinking about it.He thought of his father's trembling hands, and he thought of his mother's words before she died.His unwavering thoughts fell into chaos, he hugged himself in this boundless night, he thought: I did something wrong.

It turned out to be such a simple thing.So he stood here and told himself over and over again: I did something wrong.

What should I do... to make up for my mistakes.

But how to make up for it?At this time, it was too late to regret.The blood seemed to remain at the end of sight.How should make up?

The mother spider appeared timidly from behind the young insect master, and she asked, "Am I not your family?"

It was the funniest scene in the world.Under the feet are the bones of the former family members, and in front of them are the hands of the current family members.

Tired and lowered his head, his anger suddenly surged into his heart, and at the same time, what filled his whole body was——

Powerlessness.

He said in an icy voice, "Your obstructive face is disgusting, get the hell out of here."

"Tired," said the young insect master, "she is your family."

"She's not, my family isn't at all—"

"Only the family's call can show you the way. Tired, she is the only one who comes down to find you."

"I don't care, I just want to stay here," Tired tears rolled down his cheeks, his voice seemed glacial, but everyone present knew that there was an eternal flame buried inside, "I want With my family."

"... Tired." Kamado Tanjiro sighed, the young insect master's face was filled with a kind of cold cruelty, he directly revealed some truths, "This is the insect's cave, maybe the one entrenched here is A cave of something, maybe fragments overlapping in the depths of your memory. But this is definitely not your home."

"These bloodstains are true, and the stories that happened here are true." Tired hugged his head and whispered, "Enough, enough. Just let me stay here."

"You've already remembered." Kamado Tanjiro covered his eyes with his hands, as if in the veins of light, and said, "No matter what kind of creature it is, it will eventually die if it is eaten by insects."

Tired tears fell, and he repeated bitterly: "But this is where my family is."

"She is also your family."

"She is a lie I made up!"

"But you were the one who kept her alive, you made her real, you held her hope."

Tired and silent for a moment, he looked at the spider mother.

The girl's face is mature and charming.But also very young.That face was fabricated by him, so it naturally fit the image in his mind.

Mother Spider flinched.She was afraid of him, and all ghosts were afraid of him.So in order to cater to him, everyone wears faces that don't belong to them.

But tired as if seeing this person for the first time.He stepped forward, held her face in his hands, and said, "Let it go back."

What to go back?Mother Spider's eyes were blank, of course she didn't understand.She was just a little girl.

"Take back this mask and show me your real appearance."

The spider mother's eyes turned slightly, and in an instant, her figure shrank to the original child's appearance. She raised her face and asked Li Jiansheng: "Tired, don't you want to go back?"

Tired suddenly felt unspeakable exhaustion, but this exhaustion was different from the deep night, different from the dark room, this feeling injected him with a kind of strength.He thought to himself: Yes, I still have something to do, at least I don't deserve to die at the bottom of the well.My parents were watching me, they didn't want me to die like this.

So have to go back.Back to the sun, back to the world.

After taking care of his affairs, he can walk to his family without any haze.

-

It can be very easy for things to settle, especially if you're surrounded by a 'ghost' with superpowers.

His tired eyes stayed on the empty, sunny ground in front of him, and he asked softly, "Kaodo Tanjiro, what will happen to her after I leave?"

Who is she referring to?The two people present knew it well.

"She will become the owner of the mountain."

"Is she the mountain master you've been looking for?"

"It's not just her." Kamodo Tanjiro turned his head, looked at the other mountain lord candidate in front of him, and said slowly: "There have been two candidates for the mountain lord from the beginning."

"But she is a ghost, she still has to eat people."

"No. The owner of the mountain will not eat people. She must stop here to appease the dead souls, the buried corpses. This is a kind of salvation for both her and the mountain."

This is the test of the mountain.It is also his test.

The boy who did wrong goes back to the sun, the girl who did wrong stays in the shadows.The rest of the ghosts will be handled by others, and he just needs to wait.

Tired smiled.He walked towards the sun slowly, and his voice came: "Kamado Tanjiro, I finally know why I didn't kill you in the first place."

"why?"

"Five or six years ago,...a boy with red hair and red eyes was ordered to be hunted down. I think this is you, right? No wonder I felt deja vu when I first saw you." Tired vaguely concealed the name , because if he shouted, he would be watched by the ghost king, which was not what he expected.

Tanjiro Kamado didn't answer.

Tired smiled and shook his head, he looked back in the sun, his smile glistened like light wine in the veins of light, he said: "So, please be careful."

dusty.

The insect smoke in Kamado Tanjirou's hand was still burning, and the smoke slowly lingered with the breeze.There were unnatural wind fluctuations in the air, and Tanjiro Kamado stood up, thinking to himself: Someone is coming.

A man with black hair and blue eyes and wearing a coat of a different color came out of the forest. He asked Tanjiro Kamado seriously: "What happened here? Who are you?"

Kamado Tanjirou took a deep breath.From the person in front of him, there was not only the smell of water, but also a faint smell of insects.

The young insect master showed a very friendly and contagious smile, and he said, "Sir, my name is Kamado Tanjiro, and I am an insect master."

"—I think, you are the person sent by Mr. Ubuyashiki to meet me?"
