The Fruit of Surgery

"He is really not good at words. If you didn't know his character, you would probably think that he is a very difficult person to get along with."

Inside the Vine House, Shen Fei saw an expressionless man wearing clothes with green on one side and red on the other, connected together in the middle.

From the moment he met Shen Fei to the time he read the letter Shen Fei handed him, Tomioka Giyuu's expression never changed. His response to Shen Fei's words gave people the feeling that every word is worth a thousand dollars. .

Shen Fei didn't pay much attention to this. He knew Tomioka Giyu's character. He was a cold-hearted person, otherwise he wouldn't have let Nezuko go. He even instructed Tanjiro to become Rin Taki Sakonji's disciple. .

If Tanjiro had met other pillars, Nezuko would definitely be dead or alive. The subsequent pillar meeting showed this. Almost all pillars, including the two female pillars, agreed to kill Nezuko. Only Tomioka Giyuu alone has always insisted on standing on Tanjiro's side, and he and his teacher Lintaki Sakonji made a vow to commit suicide if Nezuko kills anyone.

The Nine Pillars of the Demon Slayer Squad basically all have family members who have been persecuted by ghosts. Tomioka Giyu seems to have had his sister killed by a ghost. In this case, he could still hold back and let Tanjiro take his sister with him. Going to be a disciple and also writing a letter asking the master to come and take care of him is enough to know what kind of person he is.

As for whether Fugang Yiyong, the water column, died in the end, Shen Fei didn't know. There was no ending before who asked him to travel through time. Although he is a cloud reader, there are many up owners who can't stand a certain site, so he does many things. knew.

However, although Giyu Tomioka looked very cold, he was a very ninja when he introduced the work of the Demon Slayer Squad and the information about ghosts to Shen Fei, although Shen Fei had already heard some things from Nataaki Saru recently. , but after all, Nintaki Saji has been retired for many years recently, and he doesn't know much about the current situation of the Demon Slayer Corps.

"We have a mission, let's go." The next day, Fugang Yiyong walked up to Shen Fei after he finished his breakfast. After saying this softly, he turned and left.

"Wish you good luck in martial arts." When leaving the Fuji House, the person in charge of the Fuji House saluted the two of them respectfully. All the members of the Demon Slayer Team who are fighting ghosts on the front line are worthy of their respect. Respected, even if its strength is very weak and it even has some small thoughts, it doesn't matter.

"Sanyuan Village." On the way, Fugang Yiyong handed the mission note to Shen Fei. There was a big difference between Fugang Yiyong's eagle crow and Touzhu's eagle crow that Shen Fei knew, that is, he hardly spoke. , just fly quietly in front to lead the way, and when tired, they will stand on the shoulders of Fugang Yiyong to rest.

Pets follow their owners, this saying really makes sense.

"If you say that, Touzhu is a talkative person." Shen Fei thought of Touzhu's crow, which seemed to have been talking all the time.

"That extremely timid man seems to have a sparrow next to him, but his sparrow seems to be quite courageous."

"With him here, we really have to kill ghosts. Wouldn't it be such a waste?" Following the silent Fugang Yiyong, Shen Fei felt helpless.

But other than using the Demon Slayer Intelligence Network to obtain information about ghosts, there really is no other good way.

"The ghost this time may have blood ghost skills, so you need to be particularly careful." When he arrived at the target location and was about to go in, Fugang Yiyong reminded Shen Fei.

There is a huge difference in the strength of ghosts with and without blood ghost skills. The average member of the ghost killing team can only deal with ghosts who do not know blood ghost skills at most. Once they encounter a ghost with blood ghost skills, unless they are overwhelming in numbers, Absolute advantage, otherwise it would be difficult to win, most of the latter would be taken over by Zhu.

"I understand, thank you." Shen Fei smiled and nodded.

If you are an ordinary member of the Demon Slayer Team, the mission given above is not 100% certain that there is a ghost. Some things may be man-made or an attack by a wild beast, causing people to disappear.

But when you reach the level of Pillar, you won't encounter such missions. Basically, Operation Pillar will only occur in places where members of the Demon Slayer Team have troubles. Before Operation Pillar, there will be at least two to three groups of Demon Slayers. Team members sacrificed.

"By the way, the people Touzhu encountered seemed to be ghosts who knew the magic of vampirism. If they were ordinary team members, a few lives wouldn't be enough."

Tanjiro has basically never encountered ordinary ghosts, even the ghosts like the one Shen Fei saved at the beginning. Even during the assessment, he encountered hand ghosts who had eaten many people and greatly increased their strength. One mission is to learn vampirism.

Along the way, the ghosts who knew the vampire magic were all at the level of ordinary miscellaneous soldiers, directly transitioning to the lower string ghosts, and then directly to the upper string ghosts.

Take the Swamp Ghost that Tanjiro first encountered as an example. If Tanjiro hadn't had a super sense of smell, he wouldn't have been an opponent at all. If it had been any other member of the Demon Slayer Team, they would have definitely lost their lives.

And only after at least two heads have been sent, the Demon Slayer Team will be able to detect that the other party is a ghost of the vampire technique, and thus send out pillars to deal with it.

Although the tenth level standard of the Demon Slayer Squad has something to do with strength, in fact it does not have much to do with it. This level is more about the task completion rate. If you defeat more ghosts, you can upgrade. Once upgraded, the corresponding Welfare will also be greatly improved.

Only when you reach the first pillar level can you really look at your strength.

"With such a cold face, most people stay away from him. How can we get information?" The villagers of Sanyuan Village looked at the indifferent Fugang Yiyong from a distance and hurriedly got out of the way.

Then Shen Fei discovered how Tomioka Giyuu got the information. Like him, he mainly listened. Although he did not have the assistance of Shen Fei's observation Haki, as long as the pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps and the user of Water Breathing paid attention to controlling his breathing, he could still hear the other party's voice at a certain distance.

In fact, there was no need to listen to the sound at all. Just looking at the panic and fear on the faces of these villagers, it was probably that something must have gone wrong here.

And it would not be the kind of problem of wild beasts attacking people. Living in the mountains or on the edge of the mountains, it is impossible to avoid wild beasts attacking humans, especially in this era, there are many ferocious wild beasts in the mountains, including wolves, tigers, bears, and even lions and wild boars.

In the original work, Tanjiro's family, who lived in the deep mountains, had been attacked by a blind bear. It was thanks to Tanjiro's father that he killed the bear.

Although these wild beasts hurt people, they are also the food and wealth of these villagers. This is the so-called relying on the mountain to eat the mountain.

When encountering such a problem of wild beast attacks, the mountain people can only think that they are unlucky at most, but they will never panic.

"One on each side."

"No problem." Sanyuan Village is located in a small canyon with only two entrances on the left and right sides, and the other two directions are all mountain walls. Although the ghost will not die even if it falls from the cliff, it will still hurt. In this case, two people guarding one side will have a high probability of blocking the ghost.

The purpose of the Demon Slayer Corps is to solve the ghost quietly. This is the decision of the Ubuyashiki clan.

Not to publicize the existence of ghosts and not to cooperate with the authorities is the principle of the Demon Slayer Corps. Shen Fei quickly guessed the reason for this rule.

Although it would be faster to deal with ghosts if the Demon Slayer Corps cooperated with the authorities, ghosts have a greater advantage than the Demon Slayer Corps in this regard.

What is the problem that the upper power holders are most afraid of? Someone rebels, not, but life span. If someone finds those in power and says that they can give you a long life, the price is to eat people and not see the light.

Although the price is very high, Shen Fei is sure that someone will do this. Some people can pay any price for longevity. To be honest, Qin Shihuang's overseas search for immortal mountains is already good.

In the Marvel world, it was revealed that some wealthy people were unwilling to die of aging, so they learned to suck the blood of virgins like vampires. Some even looked for young and strong people with the same blood type as themselves, and replaced all their blood every once in a while.

Although it is clear that these things are useless, and many of the wealthy people are highly educated, even those highly educated people choose to ignore these issues when it comes to life span.

Why did the ancient emperors become extremely stupid in their later years in terms of longevity, taking all kinds of elixirs? It was clearly recorded in history books that such things were useless, and the emperors before him had never succeeded, but some people still enjoyed it, all for that one thing, what if I succeeded.

This is just like the king in the world of Fullmetal Alchemist, who sacrificed all his citizens for immortality. As long as he can live forever, the citizens will find him again.

So for more than a thousand years, the Demon Slayer Corps has always been a civilian organization. The Ubuyashiki clan has been hiding the whereabouts of the Demon Slayer Corps because they saw this problem.

Of course, for more than a thousand years, ghosts were unknown to the public. In addition to the Demon Slayer Corps who have been killing ghosts everywhere, the Demon King Muzan Kibutsuji has also made a great contribution.

As the most cowardly boss in history, Muzan doesn't even believe in the ghosts he created. Even if he can control the life and death of the ghosts he created, it is the same. There cannot be more than three ghosts gathering. This is the order of Muzan Kibutsuji for the ghosts he created.

Except for a few ghosts who have obtained his special permission, other ghosts must obey this order. In the past, it seemed that Muzan was particularly cowardly, but if we look at what happened recently, he can't be said to be too cowardly.

Because there really is a ghost that breaks through his restrictions, that is the birth of Nezuko.

In a way, this is also Muzan's foresight. If Muzan goes to another world, he will probably be another cautious and brave.

In comparison, although Shen Fei is also cautious, he is far inferior to Muzan.

"If the ghost is too strong, don't fight." After saying this, Tomioka Giyuu walked to the right.

"I know, I chose the direction where the ghost is most likely to go. Are you worried about me?" Shen Fei thought as he looked at Tomioka Giyuu's back.

It is best for Shen Fei to act separately from Tomioka Giyuu. In this way, he is not afraid of discovering his secret.

Although with Shen Fei's current strength, it is a simpler and more convenient method to directly find the head of the Demon Slayer Corps, Ubuyashiki Yoya, and show his strength to cooperate with him to deal with the demons.

But for the sake of safety, Shen Fei still gave up such a method. With the wisdom of the Ubuyashiki clan, he would definitely be suspected if he went there. With his strength, although he is not afraid, it is troublesome.

Didn't you see that Muzan Kibutsuji was forced by the Demon Slayer Corps for more than a thousand years and dared not show up? Even before Tsugikoku Yoriichi came out, the Demon Slayer Corps dealt with demons regardless of casualties.

Although there are people in this world who will live forever at all costs, there are also people who will do anything for some ideals.

The education in the previous life made it impossible for Shen Fei to take the evil route. This is a problem of the heart. Just like Melinda was tortured in her heart after killing the little girl of the alien, Shen Fei would panic once he did something that was not in line with his heart.

For ordinary people, this is not a big problem, and they will forget it all over time, but as a person on the road to becoming a strong man, if he does not follow his heart, there is a great chance that he will have a demon in his heart.

Things like realms are not deceptive, just like the transparent world of the breathing method. The strength of the upper string is so strong, but because he has become a ghost, he has not reached this realm.

"It seems that my luck is better." Looking at the ghost swaggering in front, Shen Fei immediately went up to him. With Tomioka Giyuu, he had to fight quickly.

This is a ghost with yellow-green skin and a burly figure. Looking at his strong arms, you can know that his strength is amazing. No wonder the previous members of the Demon Slayer Corps fell here.

"The people of the Demon Slayer Corps, someone is here to die again. Although it's not the Pillar, after killing you, the next person to come should be the Pillar, so I will become the Twelve Demon Moons."

The ghost frowned when he saw Shen Fei coming over. The reason why this ghost didn't leave after killing members of the Demon Slayer Corps in succession was to wait for the Pillar.

The internal competition among the demons of Muzan, including the Twelve Demon Moons, is very fierce, especially for ordinary demons to be promoted to the Twelve Demon Moons, which is a big hurdle.

The strength of the Twelve Demon Moons is not only because they eat a lot of people and know blood demon arts, but more importantly, they have integrated more blood from the demon king Muzan. Compared with humans, Muzan's blood is the foundation for demons to become stronger.

There is no chance to get Muzan's blood if you are not the Twelve Demon Moons, and ordinary demons have two requirements to get the position of the Twelve Demon Moons. One is to challenge the current Twelve Demon Moons to replace their position. Once successful, they can replace their position and get the blood bestowed by Muzan, but if they fail, there is only one way, which is death.

The other way is to kill the pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps. Muzan has a bounty on the Demon Slayer Corps within the demons. After all, this is a thorn in his eye. He himself is too cowardly to take action, but his subordinates don't care. At most, he can create another one after he dies.

Muzan doesn't care about exchanging one life for another, not to mention that killing a demon is basically exchanging several lives for one life.

After all, demons have too much advantage over humans. They are immortal, strong, and have a hard body. Those upper-rank demons still say that there is no enemy they can fight, but they don't know that if both sides are at the same starting point, the Demon Slayer Corps can kill them in seconds.

And even the upper-rank one, with the advantage of being a demon, was almost killed by a sword when facing the old Tsugikoku Yoriichi.

"Sword demon?" Shen Fei couldn't help thinking in his heart as he looked at the kind sharp blade on the right arm of this demon.

The blood demon arts of demons are not all those difficult abilities. Most of them are ordinary abilities, such as turning a part of the body into a weapon, or turning into an animal with animal abilities. Only a very small number of demons have very unique abilities.
