Don't talk about love, just sell birds

Izumo took back the spiritual pressure, but so many days have passed since the information given by Salmon Taro, it is still unknown whether Oni Wu Tsuji will appear again, and they can't live in it because of this future that is uncertain whether it will happen or not. here.

"Do you have to carry so much charcoal down the mountain every day to sell money?" Giyuu went to investigate the surrounding area, and Izumo, who was left behind, had nothing to do and followed behind Tanjiro.

"Because I want to make money to support my family." After a few days of getting along, Tanjirou was completely relieved of their vigilance. Giyu looked cold and arrogant, but in fact he was not a bad person with a soft heart. look.

Izumo is very sympathetic to the word earning money to support his family. He used to be able to get by when he was alone, but now he has a family and can no longer rely on Yoshiyuki’s wallet. He must work hard to make money.

After making up his mind, Izumo took out a crow.

Hearing the cry of the crow behind him, Tanjiro turned around strangely, "Ah, where did this crow come from?"

"I raised this one, fat head and big ears, isn't it good?" Izumo plucked the feathers on the crow's back vigorously, almost balding it. .

"The idiom "fat head and big ears" is not used in this way." Tanjiro sniffed his nose after correcting the slang in his words, "Where has this crow been before? Why does it have a strange smell?"

He couldn't describe this smell, it was like the darkness of the abyss of hell, the purest black.

"Strange smell?" Izumo was worried that the crow would not be sold, so he took a closer look and sniffed it. "It hasn't been anywhere. Does it really smell? Is it smelly? I didn't smell anything."

"No, maybe I was overthinking." Tanjiro saw that he was impatient, so he could only change his words. It is not surprising that crows will fly somewhere when they are flying around outside, and it is not surprising that they get some strange smells.

Izumo was still a little worried, so he peeled off the crow's wings and carefully checked every corner. The crow didn't dare to resist, and let him fiddle with it honestly.

There were feathers that kept falling off due to rude movements, Tanjiro hurriedly stopped, "It's really just my illusion!"

Izumo trusted his own eyes even more, and he breathed a sigh of relief after checking from head to toe, "What, it really is an illusion."

"..." Tanjiro keenly noticed the extremely humanized lovelessness in the crow's eyes, and tried to distract Izumo's attention, "Well, the family in front is Kojima-san's."

As expected, Izumo let go of the crow, looked in the direction Tanjiro said, and his eyes lit up, "The big house seems to belong to a rich family."

"Yes, Kojima-san is a pot merchant, the wealthiest family in this area."

If you want to say how magnificent the house is, it’s actually not. It’s just a taller place in a relatively poor and backward mountain village. But compared to most people in this area who are struggling for a living every day, they can barely eat and clothe themselves. At least they shouldn’t have to worry about it. Eat, drink, and have spare money to do other things.

So when the charcoal was sold and the money was cleared, Izumo took the crow and squeezed Tanjiro away, and interjected in time, "Why don't you buy another crow, look at this black and shiny black feathers, very healthy , it can send messages and things, and it can also talk to relieve boredom, and it can also recite poems and recite haiku."

When its paws were pinched, the crow shuddered, flapped its wings and raised its neck, uttering a string of strangely pronounced tongues, "Xian~ji~ancient~chi~beside, green~frog~jump~in~water~middle~central, Flutter~tong~a~sound~sound."

Talk, talk, talk! !The crow has spoken! ! !

boom!

Contrary to Izumo's imagination, this family not only did not happily welcome them in and spend a lot of money, but slammed the door behind them in horror.

Izumo, who touched his nose, looked puzzled, "Did I do something bad? I wear a mask well, so it can scare people?"

Tanjiro didn't know why Izumo thought he was scary, and where did this cognition come from, but what happened just now was obviously not because of his face, so he pointed to the crow on his shoulder, "No, I think It’s not you who scares people, you’re not scary, but your crow, this is the first time I’ve seen a talking crow.”

"I've seen other birds talk, with colorful feathers."

"That's a parrot. It can learn tongues."

Izumo couldn't figure out the difference between a parrot and a crow. Except for the color of their feathers, the birds looked similar.

"You are really useless, you can't even sell it." Izumo brushed the crow away from his shoulder in disgust.

The crow is afraid that if its master disagrees with him, it will be violent, and it might swallow it up with the bird and its feathers, so it keeps reciting poems and songs to prove its high commercial value, "Liang~yue ~If~an~handle, absolutely~like~good~group~fan, only~garden~fine~house~bell~sound~ring, tell~say~world~things~this~no~normal, three~thousand~world ~Boundary~crow~kill~do, and~jun~chao~sleeping~to~day~ming [note]."

"It's so noisy, just a crow, are you looking down on me for not having read a book?" Izumo glared at it, and the crow immediately screamed, and finally landed on Tanjirou's right shoulder, cleverly covering himself with his head Body.

Izumo couldn't see it, so he gave up and touched the shrimp in his arms, only this could make him happy for a while.

Tanjiro's ears were itchy from the crow's feathers, and he rubbed its head with his fingers, "Although I don't know why you can talk, and I haven't studied much, I can't understand what you mean, but Really great!"

The crows who were affirmed by others almost wept with joy. Izumo only needs to give a casual order, and they have to study hard, reciting various poems with their limited brain capacity, and the bitterness and suffering are inhumane.

"Zao~door~charcoal~zhi~lang! Zao~door~charcoal~zhi~lang!"

"How do you know my name?" The tail sound rolled out with eighteen turns and it almost went up to the sky. Tanjiro really wanted to know who taught it to pronounce it like this, it couldn't be Izumo , Is it self-study?

The crow swept his face with its wings, and the gesture was more intimate, "I~before~listen~big~devil~king~speak~from~over~"

"..." Tanjiro quickly turned his head to the side, covered his mouth and whispered, "If the big demon king you mentioned is Izumo, have you forgotten that he is right next to you?"

The crow froze as a whole, and fell off his shoulder. Tanjiro quickly reached out to catch it. It had already flapped its wings and flew up, and landed on his shoulder again. This time, it didn't dare to open its mouth casually again.

Of course Izumo heard their conversation, unexpectedly he didn't pay attention, and instead encouraged, "Tanjiro, you and No. 10001 have a good relationship, why don't you buy it."

"Well, generally speaking, such openings are given away directly. I don't have the spare money to buy Tennoji Matsuemon."

"Aha, even the name has been chosen so quickly, it seems that you like the number 10001 quite a lot."

"No, that..." Tanjiro just felt that the number 10001 called it weird.

"Heaven ~ King ~ Temple ~ Pine ~ Right ~ Guard ~ Gate ~"

Crow seemed to like the name and kept repeating it.
