[Blade of Ghost Slayer] Chaodu, I am a professional
Chapter 1 (1)
"Change, what are you doing?"
The person being questioned was placing a palm-sized incense burner on a small bench that he had picked up from nowhere, with three sticks of incense stuck in it.
Ruyue lit the three incense sticks one by one with a match in a "snap" manner, then bent over and swayed, and said something softly.
"?!" The person who asked the question froze for a moment.
To be precise, this is not a person, but a ghost, it is Kisaragi's dead brother, Satu.
At this moment, his condition seems... not very good?
"Sakura, how do you feel?" Kisaragi's expression was rather tense. Since he accidentally broke the mask last time, he decided to use spells or related techniques in the future, and he must practice again and again. Even so, this is also the first time he has officially used this technique.
Sabito's voice sounded a bit difficult: "I don't feel... not so good."
"? How could it be? I obviously recited it according to the mantra of offering sacrifices to the gods."
"But I feel very bloated and hot..."
"This." Kisaragi thought about it for a while, "It's a normal phenomenon, it will be fine after a while."
This is also the technique that Qing Ze taught him. After he asked last night "How can the soul that becomes a half-god exist in the world forever", he got Qing Ze's "it would be nice to become a complete god" like this The answer and this technique.
Obviously I didn't want to rely on the other party's help at first, but now I'm used to it... Bring some snacks and specialties to Mr. Qing when I report next time, and bring some to my brother and Mr. Rijiao by the way .
"Don't Sato want to stay here, as long as you become the god here." Kisaragi repeated Qing Ze's words, "And you can protect other souls from disappearing... Sato? Can you hear me? ?”
"Uh...uh..." The green smoke from the three incense sticks floated into Satu's body little by little, not only failing to relieve his pain, but seemed to exacerbate the pain. It's not short, but it's done very finely, and it burns out in a short while, and Sato gradually calms down.
"Sakura?"
"I'm fine." After resting on the ground for a while, Sato stood up and looked at himself, "Does this make me a god?"
"should be."
"But nothing seems to have changed..."
"This..." Kisaragi didn't know. He himself didn't believe in the theory of gods and ghosts, so he could say "Amitabha Buddha", not to mention that this is a Japanese god. "Could it be that they need tribute? What are the tributes?"
Finally, this problem was solved by Tanjiro.
Wrap the rice balls one by one, place them on a plate, and place them in front of the small bench.
"Is that enough?"
"Okay, there will be a god to enjoy it in a while." Tanjiro clapped his hands, then turned his head and asked Kisaragi who was squatting on the side watching, "But what kind of god is enshrined here?"
Satoshi: "..."
Kisaragi: "..."
It's your brother.
Because they belong to a different world from humans, after the gods and ghosts eat the tributes offered by humans, there is no change in the appearance of the food. You can only know by tasting the food that has been eaten-the food that is delicious in appearance is gone. The taste at the beginning has completely become the smell of incense ash.
In other words, what God eats is the taste of the "soul" as food.
After taking a bite of Tanjirou's onigiri, Satuchi paused while chewing, and looked down at the onigiri in his hand.
Kisaragi: "! How is it?"
Sato: "It's delicious." After saying "oooh," he took another bite.
Kisaragi: "..."
"Actually, it feels like the power has become stronger." Said Usagi.
"Wow." Kisaragi was relieved, and applauded "Ba Ba", "This way I don't have to worry about you disappearing."
"Ah."
"what happened?"
"Thank you." For giving him the chance to make his dream a reality.
***
"Change, is that box yours?"
Tanjiro pointed to the cardboard box in the corner, which was as square as if there was a nine-inch pizza inside.
"Yes." Ruyue Bian, who had just succeeded in worshiping the gods and Dafa, heard this question as soon as he entered the door, "It was given by my brother as a congratulatory gift for passing the selection."
"Brother who has changed? It seems that I seldom hear you mention it."
"This, because my brother works far away, he asked someone to bring it to me."
"I see, can I ask what's inside?"
"This..." Kisaragi couldn't help but get a black hair when he thought about the contents inside, "We'll know when we accept the mission and go out to kill ghosts."
"Eh……"
Just as he was talking, the sound of wind chimes came from outside the door, and there seemed to be more than one string, "jingling" along with someone's footsteps.
Then the two people in the room heard a strange man's voice: "My name is Iron Tsukasa, and I am the person in charge of making Kamado Tanjiro and Kisaragi Saber..."
"Go ahead and talk." Lin Taki said, who was also outside the door, "They are also inside."
It was a man wearing a three-degree hat with a wind chime hanging on the edge, a jacket with a sun pattern, and a rectangular cloth bag on his back. His face could not be seen clearly.
As soon as he entered the door, the man who called himself the Iron Tomb came straight to them, put the package on his back in front of them, and couldn't wait to introduce: "These two sun wheel knives were forged by myself,... "Then introduced the steel needed for forging knives, and the place where the steel was collected, all related to the sun.
In other words, this sun wheel knife that can kill ghosts indirectly absorbed the power of the sun... solar energy?It would be nice if you could bring modern tools, but unfortunately the times are limited, I don’t know if there are similar things here...
Kisaragi listened while diverging his thoughts, and accidentally heard Iron Tomb suddenly say: "Aren't you the Son of Hui Yao? "
He raised his head and saw the face of Iron Tomb under the hat of the third degree. To be precise, it was a mask. It was a face with short and thick eyebrows, staring eyes and puffed mouth. In order to reflect the force of blowing, the whole face The face was painted red.
Is it called... Fire Man Mask?Because forging needs fire?
"Did you recognize the wrong person? I am the son of Tanjuro and Aoizhi."
Faced with Tanjiro's question, Steelzuka explained that the so-called "son of huiyao" is a child with reddish hair and pupils. If the family is engaged in a fire-related occupation, it will be regarded as a good omen. , His voice became very expectant: "Looking at it this way, the Sun Wheel Knife might turn red, don't you think so, Rinaki?"
They entered the door together, and Lin Taki, who was sitting beside him, let out a "hmm".
Sitting next to him were Satu and Mako who sneaked in at some point. It was just like a moonlight change that he persuaded Lin Taki to put incense on Satu from time to time. The reason was "their customs can guarantee the death of The soul can ascend to heaven with peace of mind", when Lin Taki was about to worship solemnly, he was held back by Kisaragi who was in a cold sweat.
Just kidding, if Mr. Ryotaki is made to kneel down to Satu, he will definitely be slaughtered by the latter. It is hard to say that Mr. Ryotaki believes that Kisaragi is already exhausted if he only uses Namaste to worship.
At this moment, Makoto was looking curiously at the sun wheel knife that Iron Mound took out, relying on the fact that no one else could see him except Kisaragi Bian, so he simply walked over and took a closer look.
"It feels like there is a force on it that can hurt me." She said after observing.
"Because it's the sun." Saito replied.
"Maybe."
Tanjiro picked up the Japanese sword prepared for him - because the Japanese sword has the characteristic of changing color according to its owner, it is also called "the color-changing sword". It should be the boy with fierce eyes after the selection that day The so-called knife——after he pulled the knife out of its sheath, within a few seconds, from the handle he held, the black color spread from bottom to top, and the silvery-white metallic knife suddenly turned into Deep black.
Iron Tsukasa, who was expecting to see the red knife, was disappointed: "Why is it black..."
Tanjiro was at a loss with the Japanese sword: "Is it unlucky?"
"That's not true, it's just that black solar knives are relatively rare..." Lin Taki's voice sounded hesitant.
"...Okay, let's see you then!" Probably remembering that there was another person whose sword hadn't been delivered, Steelzuka suddenly changed into the serious attitude he had at the beginning, but his attitude was not the same as that of Tanjirou. I was so excited when I saw the knife, "What color will your (knife) become?"
As he spoke, he took out another knife.
"Hey..." Tanjiro's voice sounded a little surprised.
Compared with the one in his hand, Kisaragi's knife is much bigger. In fact, "big" is not very strict to describe it. If you judge by the type of knife, the one in Tanjiro's hand is a standard sword - about three feet long , the blade is on the top, it is convenient to draw the knife with the backhand, and this one that has changed like a moon...
"Is this knife about the same height as Bian?"
Kisaragi Bian: "..." My knee hurts so much, why is I still so short!
Putting aside the distracting thoughts in his heart, Ru Yuebian took the knife with both hands, and looked at it carefully.
It is nearly five feet long and half a finger thick. The handle is much longer than ordinary knives. The treated red fish skin is wrapped with black rope in an orderly manner. The black metal knife that separates the handle from the blade is round in shape. , with some dark golden patterns painted on it, and the scabbard painted black below, with a red line on it like blood dripping from the blade, reaching to its tip, and drawing a small circle at the end.
It stands to reason that such a heavy knife is generally not used by anyone, but Kisaragi chose this shape of knife considering his own strength and various abilities. If you use modern game terms, it has a high attack range and a wide range. The load is high, which is very suitable for a person like him who only has strength but is average in other aspects.
He held the scabbard with one hand and drew the knife with the other.
Ten seconds later, nothing happened.
Iron Mound bluntly expressed his feelings: "You are too weak, you can't even change the color of the Sun Wheel Knife."
"How could it be so strong! There must be something wrong somewhere." Tanjiro immediately denied it.
"You doubt my forging technology?!"
"I didn't! But..."
Kisaragi put the saber back into its sheath, and turned to ask Ryotaki beside him: "Mr. Ryotaki, if the Hikari sword doesn't change color, will it affect the combat power?"
Lin Taki was taken aback by his calm attitude: "Generally speaking, it doesn't have any effect. The discoloration of the sun blade is just a manifestation of its owner's ability..."
"Then it doesn't matter." Kisaragi didn't think there was anything wrong with the fact that the Rilun Saber didn't show face. His current body can't be regarded as a real human being, and it's normal that the knife can't recognize it.
Sato, who had been silent at the side, suddenly raised his head: "Two crows are flying over."
Sure enough, with the sound of flapping wings, Kisaragi and Tanjiro's ravens flew in through the window and landed beside them, explaining their first mission content one by one.
Tanjiro's task is to go to the town in the northwest to investigate the incident of the missing girl, but Kisaragi is doing the opposite, going to the seaside fishing village in the southeast to investigate the missing child.
When the mission was finished, Kisaragi tensed up, subconsciously looked at Tanjiro, and the latter was also looking over, with some worry on his face.As a pre-modern person, Kisaragi does not have Tanjiro's strong survivability, coupled with his improved but still very withdrawn personality, it is no problem to kill ghosts alone, but it is really difficult to leave alone to perform tasks.
"Change……"
Even though the other voice in his heart was very resistant, Kisaragi still shook his head and stopped Tanjiro from continuing. He knew what Tanjiro wanted to say, but since he chose to go down the road of becoming a ghost swordsman, he couldn't always rely on him. Others, just like him refusing Qing Ze to take over this task at the beginning, it's one thing not to want to face it, but another thing to evade responsibility and let others take it on, he doesn't want to be this kind of person.
"Tanjirou has things to do, don't worry about me."
***
Because Nezuko has woken up, Tanjiro still intends to take her with him as before. For this reason, Rinaki prepared a lighter and stronger box for him, so that the smaller Nezuko can be kept in the daytime. Stayed in and rested.
According to Ryodaki's guess, Nezuko, who doesn't eat people, should replenish her physical strength through sleep, so she sleeps for two years.
At the same time, he also gave another piece of information. There is actually only one ghost who can turn a person into a ghost through blood. It may be the murderer who killed the Zaomen family.
"I think it's very likely that he knows how to turn an oni back into a human." Lin Taki ended with this sentence.
***
Under Crow's urging, the two who hadn't fully digested the news had to immediately change into the uniforms of the Ghost Killing Squad, put on their sabers and go out.
"Hey, this one that changed you...isn't it a haori? I don't think you've seen it before?" Tanjiro put his previous Ichimatsumon haori on the outside of the Demon Slayer uniform, and turned his head to see Kisaragi. There is also a red robe on the team uniform.
It is said to be haori, but the sleeves only reach the elbows, and the hem reaches the knees. There are three more slits on the sides and behind the waist, and the sleeves and hem are black in addition to a circle. Several round and square hollows surrounded by different strips.The outside is red, the inner lining is gray, and black patterns are added. Although the style is a bit strange, it matches the team uniform inexplicably, and there is an indescribable feeling.
Aside from this haori-like suit, Kisaragi's uniform is also narrower at the trouser legs than Tanjiro's, similar to the jailer's trousers he wore earlier.
As for the shoes, which were kindly provided by Qingze, the material was no different from the jailer's boots, except that the color was changed to beige, and there were three more fixed black straps on each of the legs.
Anyway,
"It's pretty good-looking." Tanjiro praised him.
"Thank you." With Tanjirou's help, Kisaragi put his sword behind his back, turned his head and replied seriously, "Tanjirou is also very good-looking."
"Is this a gift from Bian's brother?" Tanjiro recalled the box.
"Yeah." Speaking of this change like a moon, I don't know what to say.
Tanjiro's guess is correct. Although this dress looks like a haori, it is indeed not a haori, because it is a Taoist robe - it is said that it was prepared by a certain celestial master for the children of the clan. A Taoist robe that protects the body from ghosts... But this ghost is not that ghost, so it probably won't work.
No wonder Mr. Qing had such a weird expression at the time, probably because my brother found out from Mr. Qing that his mission was related to ghosts or something, so he got such a dress.
This oolong mess...
But in any case, this is all from the other party's concern, and it's not a very embarrassing thing, so I just wear it. Anyway, no one except him knows that it is a Taoist robe _(:зゝ∠)_.
"Then, off we go."
"Goodbye, Mr. Lintaki." There are also brothers and sisters.
In the hut at the foot of Sawu Mountain, unseen boys and girls surrounded the old man, waving goodbye to the boys who had gone away.

I!finally!Write!arrive!up! (kimbo)
Next, I will do the mission separately with Tanjirou(?)/
And unexpected, turning Sato into a mountain god 2333
child (overhaul)
Although he intends to be like Tanjiro, who is kind, polite and reliable at the same time, but it is still too difficult to actually implement it.Not to mention the control of facial expressions or body language when communicating with people, just how to judge the closeness and distance and make an appropriate coping attitude is enough to be exhausted. In addition to considering the relationship between the two, there must also be timely Behavior shows this, and be prepared to avoid being caught off guard.
"...Your thinking is too complicated." Tanjiro gave his own opinion on the above point of view with a complicated face and helplessness.In order to make Kisaragi less nervous before leaving, the two held a brief discussion meeting in the room with the theme of "how to communicate with others". Judging from the current speeches of Kisaragi, Tanjiro thinks that this symposium Still very necessary.
"But..." Kisaragi raised his hand and gestured twice, trying to explain his reasons with body language, "If you don't show an appropriate attitude, it is easy to cause misunderstandings. It creates a bad impression."
"Although it is reasonable, the result of failure is too exaggerated-you don't need to care so much about the other party's opinion in short-term communication, and in long-term communication, your inner self will not be covered up because of temporary faults or disguises. "
"But there are critical moments where such failures can have very dire consequences."
"Is there really such a critical moment?" Tanjiro asked, "Besides, why are you afraid of all opportunities to communicate with people because of this critical moment?"
"Because I don't know when is the critical moment."
"Is it the kind that has neither signs nor signs?"
"Yes."
"In that case." Tanjiro laughed, "Then just keep being yourself, isn't it the same as 'I don't know when natural disasters will come', but people who cultivate will not give up because of possible natural disasters in the future cultivated."
Kisaragi became silent, Tanjirou's meaning was very clear, if expressed in a Chinese idiom, it would be "unfounded worries", and it is indeed the case.I got used to this kind of fear after infinitely expanding the consequences of communication failure, so that I lost this ability, but... Even if I can understand the reason, the instinctive fear is still unavoidable.
Seeing Kisaragi's calm expression, Tanjiro thought for a while, and decided to change his direction: "The day Bian came to my house, did you think these things in your mind when you talked to me?"
this……
Kisaragi recalled for a while: "No." But he immediately added, "But that's because Tanjirou is a very good person and is very good at communicating with people, so I don't have this kind of pressure."
"...Don't be so impeccable in this aspect, even if you praise me." Tanjiro couldn't help complaining, "Besides, how does Chang think of me, it doesn't sound like me at all."
"I'm telling the truth."
Tanjiro: "..." I always feel that this conversation has been held somewhere before.
For a while the conversation was deadlocked.
(I can't always trouble others with this kind of thing. I have to solve my own problems. Always relying on others will be hated.)
Thinking of this, Kisaragi stood up, and took the initiative to say to Tanjiro who was still sitting: "Come here, Tanjiro cares about me, I have already felt it, and I will try hard. Well, the crow is urging , let's go quickly."
"..." Tanjiro didn't look up, as if he didn't hear it.
"Let's go, Tanjirou." Kisaragi said again.
Only then did Tanjiro stand up, but instead of going out the door, he walked around the extinguished fire in front of the two of them and walked in front of Kisaragi Bian. He lowered his head, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, and his lips opened and closed several times subconsciously, like It's the same as being confused but unable to say it, but in the end he didn't say it, but raised a gentle smile that was the same as usual.
"...Then you have to work hard. If you have any difficulties, just come to me. We are friends, so we should help each other, right?"
(Does Tanjiro have something to say? Why is he showing such an expression?)
But the other party didn't say anything, Kisaragi wouldn't ask, therefore, he ignored the feeling of disappointment in his heart, and responded with a serious expression: "That's right, if Tanjiro needs me, just ask, um... When the time comes to contact with Raven?"
"it is good."
As if nothing had happened, they walked out of the house side by side.
***
Even though Kisaragi's speed is not too slow, and because of his special body, he basically does not need to rest, it was already evening when he arrived at the fishing village.
From a distance, you can see that the sea is dyed into a shimmering warm color by the sunset, and you can also see the fishing boats returning home. The people on the shore are packing up their tools and preparing to go home. The windows of some houses are full of oil lamps. The yellow lights, the voice of a woman calling her child home from time to time sounded out, and the smoke from the kitchen drifted out of the house in a hurry and dissipated in the air.
It looked peaceful, and it didn't look like there was a ghost harassing it at all.
Now that the place has been found, there is no need to worry too much, Kisaragi slowed down and walked towards the village slowly, observing the surrounding environment along the way.
Before approaching the village, a few short figures at the entrance of the village attracted Kisaragi Bian's attention, as if a few children were kicking and beating around something.
Getting closer, he saw something surrounded by them.
——He is a thin child, about seven or eight years old in appearance. The single clothes he casually wears on his body are dirty and torn, which can only barely serve as a cover. It can neither resist the spring cold nor stop the blows that hit him fist.
Strangely, facing the rejection and bullying of his peers, the child not only said nothing, but even had a flat expression. He symbolically protected his head with one hand, and made a beating motion with the other, but his strength was really amazing. Too small, not only could not fight back smoothly, but also angered those children because of their resistance.
"You are obviously an idiot, but you are still so arrogant!"
"It's all you, Granny Wen was killed by you! You still have the nerve to live in her house!"
"You always come to other people's houses to steal things at night, you deserve to be beaten to death by a thief like you!"
"Do you think you can escape without speaking?"
Ruyue Bian deliberately stepped harder, those children turned around and saw him, hesitated for a moment, one of them—probably the leader, turned his head and said to the children on the ground, "I will let you go today, If you dare to approach us again, your legs will be broken!" Then he took the other children and ran into the village, and after a while, a woman's reprimand was vaguely heard in the village, mostly complaining about the child's late return.
The child who was beaten sat there for a while, looked left and right, seemed to find that no one beat him anymore, stood up slowly, limped towards Kisaragi who was standing not far away, and stretched out He struck Kisaragi's hand hanging by his side as if he had just fought back against those children.
"What's the matter? No one beat you anymore." Thinking that the child hadn't recovered from the perception of being beaten, Kisaragi subconsciously comforted her.
The child didn't answer, and his expression didn't change. After waiting for a while, he clenched his fist and knocked on Kisaragi's hand again.
Ruyue looked at her own hand in disbelief, and before he could see what was going on, the child had already turned around and limped away.
He hesitated between the two options of following up and asking the villagers first. Looking at the sky like a moon, he still chose the latter. It is never too late to find someone. If the time is missed, the villagers may not be willing to accept it at night. His stranger's inquiry.
After hesitating, the crippled child had already walked far away towards the edge of the village, Kisaragi noted the direction he left, and then walked towards a house in the village.
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
Went to rewatch the first half of Ghost Slayer, Tanjirou is so good qwq, I couldn't stop crying (is that why you are short?)
And here he will refuse Tanjiro to continue to help because he feels that he is causing too much trouble for Tanjiro, and he is worried that Tanjiro will feel annoyed if this continues. Tanjiro understands this, so he doesn't ask, but still Bit sad.
Thanks to the little angels who voted for me or irrigated the nutrient solution~

Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
Ask (overhaul)
(Even if you have prepared yourself mentally and prepared a draft, you will still be nervous when you really want to talk to others.)
Walking towards that house step by step, Kisaragi became more and more nervous. To be honest, he would rather be practiced by Sato now, if he could avoid communicating with strangers.
(What are you thinking, of course not.)
I spurned myself in my heart, and did several times of mental construction, but when I knocked on the door and saw the unfamiliar faces of the villagers after the door was opened, Ruyue Bian's brain still fell into a short blank, and kept the current expression for several days. It took only a second to retrieve the manuscript he had typed, and stammered to explain his purpose.
"Is there a strange thing? Hmm... I haven't heard of it." The young man turned his head and asked, "Liangzi, is there anything strange in the village recently?"
"I didn't hear anything strange." A woman's voice came from inside the room.
"Is that so, then, excuse me." Kisaragi bowed and thanked.
Perhaps it was because Kisaragi's appearance was really not aggressive, the young man not only didn't mind his stiff movements, but also kindly reminded him not to walk around now that it was late.
"Yes, thank you for your concern. Please close the doors and windows at night and try not to go out."
After all, he was just a stranger, and the young man closed the door after saying that you should be careful.
Kisaragi exhaled exaggeratedly, and then was flapped by the raven flying down from the sky: "No prospect."
Being nervous like this is really worthless, Ruyue bowed her head and accepted criticism honestly.
But no matter what happens, after taking the first step, everything will follow. Soon he knocked on the door of the second family. This time, a teenage girl opened the door, holding a rice bowl I used a wooden spoon, and I could hear the sound of "don't do things so hurriedly, put down the rice spoon" from the room.
Kisaragi lost her voice for a moment.
Wuhe, this girl's dress reminded him of Nezuko's appearance before she became a ghost. If there were no ghost attacks, the Zaomen family would definitely want to live like this.
"What's the matter with you?" The girl's voice brought Kisaragi back to her senses.
"Ah, sorry! That's right. As you can see, I'm an apprentice swordsman. I'm chasing a murderer who likes to pretend to be a ghost. I heard that he has wandered around here. If anything strange happens here recently, please tell me. I."
The girl couldn't help laughing when she heard Kisaragi say "apprentice swordsman"—it can't be helped, his current appearance is really sorry for his strange strength, anyone who looks at him will only think that he is a spoiled child .But when she heard that there was a murderer nearby, the girl's expression became more serious. She frowned and thought about it seriously, then shook her head: "No...you wait, I'll ask Mom and Dad."
Still got no answer from the girl's parents.
After closing the door, Kisaragi always felt that something was wrong.
He remembered the information given by Raven. It was different from the wording of Tanjiro's task "The Missing Girl". His task name was "The Disappearing Child". , not even proof of existence.
Humans can't do this kind of thing.
Moreover, judging from the background of the current era, it is rare for a family in this era to have only one daughter at such an age without giving birth to younger children. Reasons for convenient contraception.
In other words, the child may have "disappeared"?
But it's just that I can't be sure, maybe there are some special reasons for this family, so I'd better ask a few more and then judge.
So the family asked questions like this.
Before dark, Kisaragi asked a total of five families.
In addition to the young couple who may not have children in the first family, the second family only has a single teenage daughter.
The third family has three generations under one roof, with an old man, a middle-aged couple, a teenager, and a young daughter.Due to the guesswork from the second family, Kisaragi thought of a reason to enter the house and took a quick look at the furnishings of the family's house. He saw a few gadgets in the corner that boys would be more interested in, but it might also be this I played it when I was young, or maybe the girls in this family just like to play it.
And when he asked if there were any strange things, he got an answer from a disgusting strange child in the village. Kisaragi thought it should refer to the silent lame child he saw when he first came here.
The fourth family is an elderly couple, a middle-aged couple, and a young man with no children.Kisaragi went into the house for the same reason and took a look. This time he saw the new clothes worn by the new child, obviously not worn by anyone in the family, but prepared in advance for the unborn child Impossible, this dress is obviously only worn by children of several years old.
So Kisaragi asked about the dress, but unexpectedly, the family didn't seem to notice his question. Even if he directly asked "Is there a child in your family", the other party's answer was "Yes, recently It's getting dark so fast" This kind of wrong answer.After asking a few more questions, he was kicked out by the suddenly angry family.
The fifth family was the family of the first bullying child he saw when he came here. In addition to the boy, there was a younger child and their parents.Probably because I have heard my children mention Ruyue Bian's appearance, and the look in his eyes is not very friendly.
When Kisaragi asked about the crippled child, the whole family showed the same distaste except for the child who was only two or three years old, to the effect that the child not only behaved strangely but also liked to steal things, and often ran out at night to steal things, etc., of course , Their original words are not so civilized.
After asking the family, the last ray of sunlight disappeared into the sky.
Kisaragi rubbed his face stiff with a smile, and sorted out the information he got in his heart.
First of all, it can be confirmed that there is definitely a problem here.Both the children who disappeared and the villagers who turned a blind eye to the traces of these children are extremely suspicious. The person (or ghost) who did this thing either had confidence in his own strength and did not intend to cover it up at all, or he was incapable. The memories of people everywhere are changed.
Furthermore, the "strange boy" in the village's population, although there is no intersection, Ruyue has an intuition that these things should have something to do with him.
Finally, since this is the task of the ghost killing team, ghosts are likely to do this kind of thing. According to what Mr. Rinaki said before they set off, some ghosts can use a special move called "blood ghost technique", Then the control ability is probably the blood ghost technique. Although I don't know what the trigger condition is, it's better to be vigilant.
(So, should I ask a family to confirm those thoughts carefully before it is completely dark, or should I go to that "weird child" to find other clues.)
Just as he was thinking about it, suddenly Ruyue Bian felt a gaze, and when he looked back, he saw the second option in his mind - the lame child was standing a few meters away, with a flat expression, and looked too big and dark because of his thinness He looked at him without blinking.

After watching 178, Teacher Crocodile is too strong, I cried so loudly 〒▽〒
Imp (Overhaul)
Ruo Shi Ruyue didn't believe in ghosts and gods, and was taken aback by the child's silent behavior, and subconsciously focused her eyes on her eyes.
The soul water contained in the "glass container" is indeed human, but this appearance is scary enough, and why did it appear here? Was it waiting for him or... following him all the time?
While he was thinking about scaring himself, the crippled boy had turned around and left.
(Do you want to follow?)
Hesitating, Ru Yuebian stood still, who would have thought that child
The person being questioned was placing a palm-sized incense burner on a small bench that he had picked up from nowhere, with three sticks of incense stuck in it.
Ruyue lit the three incense sticks one by one with a match in a "snap" manner, then bent over and swayed, and said something softly.
"?!" The person who asked the question froze for a moment.
To be precise, this is not a person, but a ghost, it is Kisaragi's dead brother, Satu.
At this moment, his condition seems... not very good?
"Sakura, how do you feel?" Kisaragi's expression was rather tense. Since he accidentally broke the mask last time, he decided to use spells or related techniques in the future, and he must practice again and again. Even so, this is also the first time he has officially used this technique.
Sabito's voice sounded a bit difficult: "I don't feel... not so good."
"? How could it be? I obviously recited it according to the mantra of offering sacrifices to the gods."
"But I feel very bloated and hot..."
"This." Kisaragi thought about it for a while, "It's a normal phenomenon, it will be fine after a while."
This is also the technique that Qing Ze taught him. After he asked last night "How can the soul that becomes a half-god exist in the world forever", he got Qing Ze's "it would be nice to become a complete god" like this The answer and this technique.
Obviously I didn't want to rely on the other party's help at first, but now I'm used to it... Bring some snacks and specialties to Mr. Qing when I report next time, and bring some to my brother and Mr. Rijiao by the way .
"Don't Sato want to stay here, as long as you become the god here." Kisaragi repeated Qing Ze's words, "And you can protect other souls from disappearing... Sato? Can you hear me? ?”
"Uh...uh..." The green smoke from the three incense sticks floated into Satu's body little by little, not only failing to relieve his pain, but seemed to exacerbate the pain. It's not short, but it's done very finely, and it burns out in a short while, and Sato gradually calms down.
"Sakura?"
"I'm fine." After resting on the ground for a while, Sato stood up and looked at himself, "Does this make me a god?"
"should be."
"But nothing seems to have changed..."
"This..." Kisaragi didn't know. He himself didn't believe in the theory of gods and ghosts, so he could say "Amitabha Buddha", not to mention that this is a Japanese god. "Could it be that they need tribute? What are the tributes?"
Finally, this problem was solved by Tanjiro.
Wrap the rice balls one by one, place them on a plate, and place them in front of the small bench.
"Is that enough?"
"Okay, there will be a god to enjoy it in a while." Tanjiro clapped his hands, then turned his head and asked Kisaragi who was squatting on the side watching, "But what kind of god is enshrined here?"
Satoshi: "..."
Kisaragi: "..."
It's your brother.
Because they belong to a different world from humans, after the gods and ghosts eat the tributes offered by humans, there is no change in the appearance of the food. You can only know by tasting the food that has been eaten-the food that is delicious in appearance is gone. The taste at the beginning has completely become the smell of incense ash.
In other words, what God eats is the taste of the "soul" as food.
After taking a bite of Tanjirou's onigiri, Satuchi paused while chewing, and looked down at the onigiri in his hand.
Kisaragi: "! How is it?"
Sato: "It's delicious." After saying "oooh," he took another bite.
Kisaragi: "..."
"Actually, it feels like the power has become stronger." Said Usagi.
"Wow." Kisaragi was relieved, and applauded "Ba Ba", "This way I don't have to worry about you disappearing."
"Ah."
"what happened?"
"Thank you." For giving him the chance to make his dream a reality.
***
"Change, is that box yours?"
Tanjiro pointed to the cardboard box in the corner, which was as square as if there was a nine-inch pizza inside.
"Yes." Ruyue Bian, who had just succeeded in worshiping the gods and Dafa, heard this question as soon as he entered the door, "It was given by my brother as a congratulatory gift for passing the selection."
"Brother who has changed? It seems that I seldom hear you mention it."
"This, because my brother works far away, he asked someone to bring it to me."
"I see, can I ask what's inside?"
"This..." Kisaragi couldn't help but get a black hair when he thought about the contents inside, "We'll know when we accept the mission and go out to kill ghosts."
"Eh……"
Just as he was talking, the sound of wind chimes came from outside the door, and there seemed to be more than one string, "jingling" along with someone's footsteps.
Then the two people in the room heard a strange man's voice: "My name is Iron Tsukasa, and I am the person in charge of making Kamado Tanjiro and Kisaragi Saber..."
"Go ahead and talk." Lin Taki said, who was also outside the door, "They are also inside."
It was a man wearing a three-degree hat with a wind chime hanging on the edge, a jacket with a sun pattern, and a rectangular cloth bag on his back. His face could not be seen clearly.
As soon as he entered the door, the man who called himself the Iron Tomb came straight to them, put the package on his back in front of them, and couldn't wait to introduce: "These two sun wheel knives were forged by myself,... "Then introduced the steel needed for forging knives, and the place where the steel was collected, all related to the sun.
In other words, this sun wheel knife that can kill ghosts indirectly absorbed the power of the sun... solar energy?It would be nice if you could bring modern tools, but unfortunately the times are limited, I don’t know if there are similar things here...
Kisaragi listened while diverging his thoughts, and accidentally heard Iron Tomb suddenly say: "Aren't you the Son of Hui Yao? "
He raised his head and saw the face of Iron Tomb under the hat of the third degree. To be precise, it was a mask. It was a face with short and thick eyebrows, staring eyes and puffed mouth. In order to reflect the force of blowing, the whole face The face was painted red.
Is it called... Fire Man Mask?Because forging needs fire?
"Did you recognize the wrong person? I am the son of Tanjuro and Aoizhi."
Faced with Tanjiro's question, Steelzuka explained that the so-called "son of huiyao" is a child with reddish hair and pupils. If the family is engaged in a fire-related occupation, it will be regarded as a good omen. , His voice became very expectant: "Looking at it this way, the Sun Wheel Knife might turn red, don't you think so, Rinaki?"
They entered the door together, and Lin Taki, who was sitting beside him, let out a "hmm".
Sitting next to him were Satu and Mako who sneaked in at some point. It was just like a moonlight change that he persuaded Lin Taki to put incense on Satu from time to time. The reason was "their customs can guarantee the death of The soul can ascend to heaven with peace of mind", when Lin Taki was about to worship solemnly, he was held back by Kisaragi who was in a cold sweat.
Just kidding, if Mr. Ryotaki is made to kneel down to Satu, he will definitely be slaughtered by the latter. It is hard to say that Mr. Ryotaki believes that Kisaragi is already exhausted if he only uses Namaste to worship.
At this moment, Makoto was looking curiously at the sun wheel knife that Iron Mound took out, relying on the fact that no one else could see him except Kisaragi Bian, so he simply walked over and took a closer look.
"It feels like there is a force on it that can hurt me." She said after observing.
"Because it's the sun." Saito replied.
"Maybe."
Tanjiro picked up the Japanese sword prepared for him - because the Japanese sword has the characteristic of changing color according to its owner, it is also called "the color-changing sword". It should be the boy with fierce eyes after the selection that day The so-called knife——after he pulled the knife out of its sheath, within a few seconds, from the handle he held, the black color spread from bottom to top, and the silvery-white metallic knife suddenly turned into Deep black.
Iron Tsukasa, who was expecting to see the red knife, was disappointed: "Why is it black..."
Tanjiro was at a loss with the Japanese sword: "Is it unlucky?"
"That's not true, it's just that black solar knives are relatively rare..." Lin Taki's voice sounded hesitant.
"...Okay, let's see you then!" Probably remembering that there was another person whose sword hadn't been delivered, Steelzuka suddenly changed into the serious attitude he had at the beginning, but his attitude was not the same as that of Tanjirou. I was so excited when I saw the knife, "What color will your (knife) become?"
As he spoke, he took out another knife.
"Hey..." Tanjiro's voice sounded a little surprised.
Compared with the one in his hand, Kisaragi's knife is much bigger. In fact, "big" is not very strict to describe it. If you judge by the type of knife, the one in Tanjiro's hand is a standard sword - about three feet long , the blade is on the top, it is convenient to draw the knife with the backhand, and this one that has changed like a moon...
"Is this knife about the same height as Bian?"
Kisaragi Bian: "..." My knee hurts so much, why is I still so short!
Putting aside the distracting thoughts in his heart, Ru Yuebian took the knife with both hands, and looked at it carefully.
It is nearly five feet long and half a finger thick. The handle is much longer than ordinary knives. The treated red fish skin is wrapped with black rope in an orderly manner. The black metal knife that separates the handle from the blade is round in shape. , with some dark golden patterns painted on it, and the scabbard painted black below, with a red line on it like blood dripping from the blade, reaching to its tip, and drawing a small circle at the end.
It stands to reason that such a heavy knife is generally not used by anyone, but Kisaragi chose this shape of knife considering his own strength and various abilities. If you use modern game terms, it has a high attack range and a wide range. The load is high, which is very suitable for a person like him who only has strength but is average in other aspects.
He held the scabbard with one hand and drew the knife with the other.
Ten seconds later, nothing happened.
Iron Mound bluntly expressed his feelings: "You are too weak, you can't even change the color of the Sun Wheel Knife."
"How could it be so strong! There must be something wrong somewhere." Tanjiro immediately denied it.
"You doubt my forging technology?!"
"I didn't! But..."
Kisaragi put the saber back into its sheath, and turned to ask Ryotaki beside him: "Mr. Ryotaki, if the Hikari sword doesn't change color, will it affect the combat power?"
Lin Taki was taken aback by his calm attitude: "Generally speaking, it doesn't have any effect. The discoloration of the sun blade is just a manifestation of its owner's ability..."
"Then it doesn't matter." Kisaragi didn't think there was anything wrong with the fact that the Rilun Saber didn't show face. His current body can't be regarded as a real human being, and it's normal that the knife can't recognize it.
Sato, who had been silent at the side, suddenly raised his head: "Two crows are flying over."
Sure enough, with the sound of flapping wings, Kisaragi and Tanjiro's ravens flew in through the window and landed beside them, explaining their first mission content one by one.
Tanjiro's task is to go to the town in the northwest to investigate the incident of the missing girl, but Kisaragi is doing the opposite, going to the seaside fishing village in the southeast to investigate the missing child.
When the mission was finished, Kisaragi tensed up, subconsciously looked at Tanjiro, and the latter was also looking over, with some worry on his face.As a pre-modern person, Kisaragi does not have Tanjiro's strong survivability, coupled with his improved but still very withdrawn personality, it is no problem to kill ghosts alone, but it is really difficult to leave alone to perform tasks.
"Change……"
Even though the other voice in his heart was very resistant, Kisaragi still shook his head and stopped Tanjiro from continuing. He knew what Tanjiro wanted to say, but since he chose to go down the road of becoming a ghost swordsman, he couldn't always rely on him. Others, just like him refusing Qing Ze to take over this task at the beginning, it's one thing not to want to face it, but another thing to evade responsibility and let others take it on, he doesn't want to be this kind of person.
"Tanjirou has things to do, don't worry about me."
***
Because Nezuko has woken up, Tanjiro still intends to take her with him as before. For this reason, Rinaki prepared a lighter and stronger box for him, so that the smaller Nezuko can be kept in the daytime. Stayed in and rested.
According to Ryodaki's guess, Nezuko, who doesn't eat people, should replenish her physical strength through sleep, so she sleeps for two years.
At the same time, he also gave another piece of information. There is actually only one ghost who can turn a person into a ghost through blood. It may be the murderer who killed the Zaomen family.
"I think it's very likely that he knows how to turn an oni back into a human." Lin Taki ended with this sentence.
***
Under Crow's urging, the two who hadn't fully digested the news had to immediately change into the uniforms of the Ghost Killing Squad, put on their sabers and go out.
"Hey, this one that changed you...isn't it a haori? I don't think you've seen it before?" Tanjiro put his previous Ichimatsumon haori on the outside of the Demon Slayer uniform, and turned his head to see Kisaragi. There is also a red robe on the team uniform.
It is said to be haori, but the sleeves only reach the elbows, and the hem reaches the knees. There are three more slits on the sides and behind the waist, and the sleeves and hem are black in addition to a circle. Several round and square hollows surrounded by different strips.The outside is red, the inner lining is gray, and black patterns are added. Although the style is a bit strange, it matches the team uniform inexplicably, and there is an indescribable feeling.
Aside from this haori-like suit, Kisaragi's uniform is also narrower at the trouser legs than Tanjiro's, similar to the jailer's trousers he wore earlier.
As for the shoes, which were kindly provided by Qingze, the material was no different from the jailer's boots, except that the color was changed to beige, and there were three more fixed black straps on each of the legs.
Anyway,
"It's pretty good-looking." Tanjiro praised him.
"Thank you." With Tanjirou's help, Kisaragi put his sword behind his back, turned his head and replied seriously, "Tanjirou is also very good-looking."
"Is this a gift from Bian's brother?" Tanjiro recalled the box.
"Yeah." Speaking of this change like a moon, I don't know what to say.
Tanjiro's guess is correct. Although this dress looks like a haori, it is indeed not a haori, because it is a Taoist robe - it is said that it was prepared by a certain celestial master for the children of the clan. A Taoist robe that protects the body from ghosts... But this ghost is not that ghost, so it probably won't work.
No wonder Mr. Qing had such a weird expression at the time, probably because my brother found out from Mr. Qing that his mission was related to ghosts or something, so he got such a dress.
This oolong mess...
But in any case, this is all from the other party's concern, and it's not a very embarrassing thing, so I just wear it. Anyway, no one except him knows that it is a Taoist robe _(:зゝ∠)_.
"Then, off we go."
"Goodbye, Mr. Lintaki." There are also brothers and sisters.
In the hut at the foot of Sawu Mountain, unseen boys and girls surrounded the old man, waving goodbye to the boys who had gone away.

child (overhaul)
Although he intends to be like Tanjiro, who is kind, polite and reliable at the same time, but it is still too difficult to actually implement it.Not to mention the control of facial expressions or body language when communicating with people, just how to judge the closeness and distance and make an appropriate coping attitude is enough to be exhausted. In addition to considering the relationship between the two, there must also be timely Behavior shows this, and be prepared to avoid being caught off guard.
"...Your thinking is too complicated." Tanjiro gave his own opinion on the above point of view with a complicated face and helplessness.In order to make Kisaragi less nervous before leaving, the two held a brief discussion meeting in the room with the theme of "how to communicate with others". Judging from the current speeches of Kisaragi, Tanjiro thinks that this symposium Still very necessary.
"But..." Kisaragi raised his hand and gestured twice, trying to explain his reasons with body language, "If you don't show an appropriate attitude, it is easy to cause misunderstandings. It creates a bad impression."
"Although it is reasonable, the result of failure is too exaggerated-you don't need to care so much about the other party's opinion in short-term communication, and in long-term communication, your inner self will not be covered up because of temporary faults or disguises. "
"But there are critical moments where such failures can have very dire consequences."
"Is there really such a critical moment?" Tanjiro asked, "Besides, why are you afraid of all opportunities to communicate with people because of this critical moment?"
"Because I don't know when is the critical moment."
"Is it the kind that has neither signs nor signs?"
"Yes."
"In that case." Tanjiro laughed, "Then just keep being yourself, isn't it the same as 'I don't know when natural disasters will come', but people who cultivate will not give up because of possible natural disasters in the future cultivated."
Kisaragi became silent, Tanjirou's meaning was very clear, if expressed in a Chinese idiom, it would be "unfounded worries", and it is indeed the case.I got used to this kind of fear after infinitely expanding the consequences of communication failure, so that I lost this ability, but... Even if I can understand the reason, the instinctive fear is still unavoidable.
Seeing Kisaragi's calm expression, Tanjiro thought for a while, and decided to change his direction: "The day Bian came to my house, did you think these things in your mind when you talked to me?"
this……
Kisaragi recalled for a while: "No." But he immediately added, "But that's because Tanjirou is a very good person and is very good at communicating with people, so I don't have this kind of pressure."
"...Don't be so impeccable in this aspect, even if you praise me." Tanjiro couldn't help complaining, "Besides, how does Chang think of me, it doesn't sound like me at all."
"I'm telling the truth."
Tanjiro: "..." I always feel that this conversation has been held somewhere before.
For a while the conversation was deadlocked.
(I can't always trouble others with this kind of thing. I have to solve my own problems. Always relying on others will be hated.)
Thinking of this, Kisaragi stood up, and took the initiative to say to Tanjiro who was still sitting: "Come here, Tanjiro cares about me, I have already felt it, and I will try hard. Well, the crow is urging , let's go quickly."
"..." Tanjiro didn't look up, as if he didn't hear it.
"Let's go, Tanjirou." Kisaragi said again.
Only then did Tanjiro stand up, but instead of going out the door, he walked around the extinguished fire in front of the two of them and walked in front of Kisaragi Bian. He lowered his head, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, and his lips opened and closed several times subconsciously, like It's the same as being confused but unable to say it, but in the end he didn't say it, but raised a gentle smile that was the same as usual.
"...Then you have to work hard. If you have any difficulties, just come to me. We are friends, so we should help each other, right?"
(Does Tanjiro have something to say? Why is he showing such an expression?)
But the other party didn't say anything, Kisaragi wouldn't ask, therefore, he ignored the feeling of disappointment in his heart, and responded with a serious expression: "That's right, if Tanjiro needs me, just ask, um... When the time comes to contact with Raven?"
"it is good."
As if nothing had happened, they walked out of the house side by side.
***
Even though Kisaragi's speed is not too slow, and because of his special body, he basically does not need to rest, it was already evening when he arrived at the fishing village.
From a distance, you can see that the sea is dyed into a shimmering warm color by the sunset, and you can also see the fishing boats returning home. The people on the shore are packing up their tools and preparing to go home. The windows of some houses are full of oil lamps. The yellow lights, the voice of a woman calling her child home from time to time sounded out, and the smoke from the kitchen drifted out of the house in a hurry and dissipated in the air.
It looked peaceful, and it didn't look like there was a ghost harassing it at all.
Now that the place has been found, there is no need to worry too much, Kisaragi slowed down and walked towards the village slowly, observing the surrounding environment along the way.
Before approaching the village, a few short figures at the entrance of the village attracted Kisaragi Bian's attention, as if a few children were kicking and beating around something.
Getting closer, he saw something surrounded by them.
——He is a thin child, about seven or eight years old in appearance. The single clothes he casually wears on his body are dirty and torn, which can only barely serve as a cover. It can neither resist the spring cold nor stop the blows that hit him fist.
Strangely, facing the rejection and bullying of his peers, the child not only said nothing, but even had a flat expression. He symbolically protected his head with one hand, and made a beating motion with the other, but his strength was really amazing. Too small, not only could not fight back smoothly, but also angered those children because of their resistance.
"You are obviously an idiot, but you are still so arrogant!"
"It's all you, Granny Wen was killed by you! You still have the nerve to live in her house!"
"You always come to other people's houses to steal things at night, you deserve to be beaten to death by a thief like you!"
"Do you think you can escape without speaking?"
Ruyue Bian deliberately stepped harder, those children turned around and saw him, hesitated for a moment, one of them—probably the leader, turned his head and said to the children on the ground, "I will let you go today, If you dare to approach us again, your legs will be broken!" Then he took the other children and ran into the village, and after a while, a woman's reprimand was vaguely heard in the village, mostly complaining about the child's late return.
The child who was beaten sat there for a while, looked left and right, seemed to find that no one beat him anymore, stood up slowly, limped towards Kisaragi who was standing not far away, and stretched out He struck Kisaragi's hand hanging by his side as if he had just fought back against those children.
"What's the matter? No one beat you anymore." Thinking that the child hadn't recovered from the perception of being beaten, Kisaragi subconsciously comforted her.
The child didn't answer, and his expression didn't change. After waiting for a while, he clenched his fist and knocked on Kisaragi's hand again.
Ruyue looked at her own hand in disbelief, and before he could see what was going on, the child had already turned around and limped away.
He hesitated between the two options of following up and asking the villagers first. Looking at the sky like a moon, he still chose the latter. It is never too late to find someone. If the time is missed, the villagers may not be willing to accept it at night. His stranger's inquiry.
After hesitating, the crippled child had already walked far away towards the edge of the village, Kisaragi noted the direction he left, and then walked towards a house in the village.
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
Went to rewatch the first half of Ghost Slayer, Tanjirou is so good qwq, I couldn't stop crying (is that why you are short?)
And here he will refuse Tanjiro to continue to help because he feels that he is causing too much trouble for Tanjiro, and he is worried that Tanjiro will feel annoyed if this continues. Tanjiro understands this, so he doesn't ask, but still Bit sad.

Ask (overhaul)
(Even if you have prepared yourself mentally and prepared a draft, you will still be nervous when you really want to talk to others.)
Walking towards that house step by step, Kisaragi became more and more nervous. To be honest, he would rather be practiced by Sato now, if he could avoid communicating with strangers.
(What are you thinking, of course not.)
I spurned myself in my heart, and did several times of mental construction, but when I knocked on the door and saw the unfamiliar faces of the villagers after the door was opened, Ruyue Bian's brain still fell into a short blank, and kept the current expression for several days. It took only a second to retrieve the manuscript he had typed, and stammered to explain his purpose.
"Is there a strange thing? Hmm... I haven't heard of it." The young man turned his head and asked, "Liangzi, is there anything strange in the village recently?"
"I didn't hear anything strange." A woman's voice came from inside the room.
"Is that so, then, excuse me." Kisaragi bowed and thanked.
Perhaps it was because Kisaragi's appearance was really not aggressive, the young man not only didn't mind his stiff movements, but also kindly reminded him not to walk around now that it was late.
"Yes, thank you for your concern. Please close the doors and windows at night and try not to go out."
After all, he was just a stranger, and the young man closed the door after saying that you should be careful.
Kisaragi exhaled exaggeratedly, and then was flapped by the raven flying down from the sky: "No prospect."
Being nervous like this is really worthless, Ruyue bowed her head and accepted criticism honestly.
But no matter what happens, after taking the first step, everything will follow. Soon he knocked on the door of the second family. This time, a teenage girl opened the door, holding a rice bowl I used a wooden spoon, and I could hear the sound of "don't do things so hurriedly, put down the rice spoon" from the room.
Kisaragi lost her voice for a moment.
Wuhe, this girl's dress reminded him of Nezuko's appearance before she became a ghost. If there were no ghost attacks, the Zaomen family would definitely want to live like this.
"What's the matter with you?" The girl's voice brought Kisaragi back to her senses.
"Ah, sorry! That's right. As you can see, I'm an apprentice swordsman. I'm chasing a murderer who likes to pretend to be a ghost. I heard that he has wandered around here. If anything strange happens here recently, please tell me. I."
The girl couldn't help laughing when she heard Kisaragi say "apprentice swordsman"—it can't be helped, his current appearance is really sorry for his strange strength, anyone who looks at him will only think that he is a spoiled child .But when she heard that there was a murderer nearby, the girl's expression became more serious. She frowned and thought about it seriously, then shook her head: "No...you wait, I'll ask Mom and Dad."
Still got no answer from the girl's parents.
After closing the door, Kisaragi always felt that something was wrong.
He remembered the information given by Raven. It was different from the wording of Tanjiro's task "The Missing Girl". His task name was "The Disappearing Child". , not even proof of existence.
Humans can't do this kind of thing.
Moreover, judging from the background of the current era, it is rare for a family in this era to have only one daughter at such an age without giving birth to younger children. Reasons for convenient contraception.
In other words, the child may have "disappeared"?
But it's just that I can't be sure, maybe there are some special reasons for this family, so I'd better ask a few more and then judge.
So the family asked questions like this.
Before dark, Kisaragi asked a total of five families.
In addition to the young couple who may not have children in the first family, the second family only has a single teenage daughter.
The third family has three generations under one roof, with an old man, a middle-aged couple, a teenager, and a young daughter.Due to the guesswork from the second family, Kisaragi thought of a reason to enter the house and took a quick look at the furnishings of the family's house. He saw a few gadgets in the corner that boys would be more interested in, but it might also be this I played it when I was young, or maybe the girls in this family just like to play it.
And when he asked if there were any strange things, he got an answer from a disgusting strange child in the village. Kisaragi thought it should refer to the silent lame child he saw when he first came here.
The fourth family is an elderly couple, a middle-aged couple, and a young man with no children.Kisaragi went into the house for the same reason and took a look. This time he saw the new clothes worn by the new child, obviously not worn by anyone in the family, but prepared in advance for the unborn child Impossible, this dress is obviously only worn by children of several years old.
So Kisaragi asked about the dress, but unexpectedly, the family didn't seem to notice his question. Even if he directly asked "Is there a child in your family", the other party's answer was "Yes, recently It's getting dark so fast" This kind of wrong answer.After asking a few more questions, he was kicked out by the suddenly angry family.
The fifth family was the family of the first bullying child he saw when he came here. In addition to the boy, there was a younger child and their parents.Probably because I have heard my children mention Ruyue Bian's appearance, and the look in his eyes is not very friendly.
When Kisaragi asked about the crippled child, the whole family showed the same distaste except for the child who was only two or three years old, to the effect that the child not only behaved strangely but also liked to steal things, and often ran out at night to steal things, etc., of course , Their original words are not so civilized.
After asking the family, the last ray of sunlight disappeared into the sky.
Kisaragi rubbed his face stiff with a smile, and sorted out the information he got in his heart.
First of all, it can be confirmed that there is definitely a problem here.Both the children who disappeared and the villagers who turned a blind eye to the traces of these children are extremely suspicious. The person (or ghost) who did this thing either had confidence in his own strength and did not intend to cover it up at all, or he was incapable. The memories of people everywhere are changed.
Furthermore, the "strange boy" in the village's population, although there is no intersection, Ruyue has an intuition that these things should have something to do with him.
Finally, since this is the task of the ghost killing team, ghosts are likely to do this kind of thing. According to what Mr. Rinaki said before they set off, some ghosts can use a special move called "blood ghost technique", Then the control ability is probably the blood ghost technique. Although I don't know what the trigger condition is, it's better to be vigilant.
(So, should I ask a family to confirm those thoughts carefully before it is completely dark, or should I go to that "weird child" to find other clues.)
Just as he was thinking about it, suddenly Ruyue Bian felt a gaze, and when he looked back, he saw the second option in his mind - the lame child was standing a few meters away, with a flat expression, and looked too big and dark because of his thinness He looked at him without blinking.

Ruo Shi Ruyue didn't believe in ghosts and gods, and was taken aback by the child's silent behavior, and subconsciously focused her eyes on her eyes.
The soul water contained in the "glass container" is indeed human, but this appearance is scary enough, and why did it appear here? Was it waiting for him or... following him all the time?
While he was thinking about scaring himself, the crippled boy had turned around and left.
(Do you want to follow?)
Hesitating, Ru Yuebian stood still, who would have thought that child
