Ghost Slayer: Life Is Like a Song

Bullets poured towards the Buddhist hall.

The evil ghost in the Buddhist hall let out a mournful howl.

These bullets are bullets with wisteria poison,

The bullet entered the body, and the wisteria poison quickly destroyed the evil spirit's body.

Tanjiro suddenly wanted to rush over, but was pressed to the ground in time by Sato: "Tanjiro! What are you doing?!"

Tanjiro said with a livid face: "If the people in the Buddhist hall are still alive, don't they also die under the bullets? I'm going to save them!"

Mako comforted Tanjiro and said: "You can't save them, even if they were alive just now, they are dead now, you can't change anything if you go, and you may even be in danger yourself."

Tanjiro looked confused: "Aren't they also ghost hunters? Why do they attack indiscriminately without confirming that someone is alive? Shouldn't saving people be the first priority?"

Sato said calmly: "This is the style of the ghost-seeking army. They don't care about the lives of ordinary people. For them, as long as they can kill ghosts, it doesn't matter how many people die."

Sato let go of Tanjiro: "Okay, we can't control this matter, and we are also on the wanted list. If we are found, they will attack us."

Tanjiro couldn't accept this fact, and silently followed behind Saitu and Mako.

Makoto looked at Tanjiro, who was looking down with a depressed expression, and enlightened him: "Tanjiro, after becoming a ghost hunter, you may encounter even more incomprehensible and angry things than this. If you can't adjust your mentality, If you stay calm, you will only put yourself in a dangerous situation.

Not everyone will reason with you, or listen to your reasoning. What you have to do is to assess the situation and do things within your own ability, instead of rushing out as soon as you just had a hot head. If you hurt yourself, you will hurt your companions.

Think about Nezuko, if you rushed out and were shot to death, what would you do with Nezuko? "

Hearing Mako's words, Tanjiro turned pale and broke out in a cold sweat.

'Yeah, if you die, what should Nezuko do? '

Tanjiro nodded solemnly, "I understand."

...

We continued on for two days and two nights.

Finally arrived at Sagiri Mountain.

An old man wearing a tengu mask appeared in front of the four of them.

Sato and Mako respectfully called out, "Master Lintaki."

"You are back."

When he saw Tanjiro and Nezuko, Ryotaki Sakino frowned slightly under the mask.

Like Tanjiro, Rinaki Sakonji has a unique and keen sense of smell. He smells the ghost of Nezuko.

"What's going on with these two boys?"

Sato and Mako told Ryotaki Zuo Kinji the ins and outs of the matter.

Lin Takizuo was silent for a while and then said: "I understand, come with me."

Everyone came to a wooden house.

The furnishings in the wooden house are very simple, with only one burning candle on the table.

Tanjiro knelt in front of Ryodaki Sakinji, and begged, "Mr. Ryodaki, please accept me as a disciple. I want to be a ghost hunter!"

Rinaki Sakumo didn't answer Tanjiro immediately, but looked at Tanjiro quietly.

Ryotaki Sakonji relied on his sense of smell to smell Tanjirou's character.

'This kid is no good, too considerate of others, unable to make decisions...'

Saito and Mako just wanted to speak for Tanjiro, but was stopped by Rinaki Sakonji.

"Is that Tanjirou? Let me ask you a question, what do you do when your sister eats people?"

Tanjiro froze for a moment, and stared at Ryotaki Sakinji with dull eyes.

Ryotaki Sato slapped Tanjiro in the face the last time.

Tanjiro was in a daze, not understanding why Ryodaki Sakinji suddenly wanted to hit him.

"The judgment is too slow! Why can't you answer me immediately? That's because your determination is not firm enough!

When your sister eats people, there are only two things you have to do!Kill my sister, and then cut myself to death!

If you want to avoid this from happening!Just don't let this happen!Never let your sister take the life of an innocent man!

Do you understand what I said? "

Tanjiro's eyes gradually became firm: "Yes! I understand!"

Saito and Mako congratulated Tanjirou with a smile: "It seems that we have one more junior."

Tanjiro didn't realize it at first, but he realized it after being reminded by Sato and Mako.

Tanjiro put his head on the ground: "Thank you, Master Rinaki!"

Rinaki Zuojin got up from the tatami and said, "I'm not your master yet, so let's test whether you are suitable to be a ghost hunter."

Saito and Mako said to Tanjiro: "Tanjiro, don't worry, we will take care of Nezuko."

Ryotaki Sakon took Tanjiro to the top of Sagiri Mountain for the first time.

Just reaching the top of the mountain, Tanjirou was already out of breath and dizzy from exhaustion.

"The time to go back to the home at the foot of the mountain from here is before the sun rises. If we can't do it, it means that we don't have the fate of master and apprentice."

The dense fog drifted past, and Zuo Lingtaki disappeared in place for the first time.

And Tanjiro also started his way down the mountain.

Rinaki Zuo returned to the wooden house for the last time.

Sato asked, "Master Ryotaki, did you tell Tanjiro that there are traps on the mountain?"

Lingtaki Zuojin shook his head again and said: "No, if you can't even avoid a trap of that level, becoming a ghost hunter is just dying in vain."

Sakonji Ryotaki, Saito, and Mako stood beside Nezuko who was sleeping soundly, waiting for Tanjiro.

Finally, when dawn was approaching, Tanjiro returned to the wooden house with injuries all over his body, and passed Rinaki Sakon's second trial.

"Take a good rest, formal training will start tomorrow." Rinaki Sakumi had already approved Tanjiro, got up and left the wooden house.

"Tanjiro, get ready, the next training will be very hard."

When Saitu and Mako got up and were about to leave, Tanjiro asked aloud:

"Wait a minute, Mr. Sako, Ms. Mako, I have a question for you. I heard Ms. Mako say before, 'Will Nezuko become the same existence as Mr. Kanna'.

Who is this Mr. Kanna? Is he also a ghost? "

Chapter 161 Tanjiro's Training

Tanjiro asks Saitu and Manko about 'Mr. Kanna'.

Saito and Mako looked at each other, and Sato sighed slightly: "Since you are already our junior, it's okay to tell you something, the full name of the Mr. Kanna we are talking about is Kanna Kaede.

As for whether he is a ghost... Yes, and no, strictly speaking, Mr. Kanna is half human and half ghost. "

Tanjiro, who currently knows little about ghosts, asked suspiciously: "Half-human, half-ghost? Then the current situation of Nezuko is half-human, half-ghost?"

Zhenmo explained: "The situation of Nezuko and Mr. Kanna is completely different. Mr. Shenna has his own reason, but Nezuko does not. And your sense of smell is not very sensitive. The smell of Nezuko's body is already the smell of ghosts. And Mr. Kanna's smell is a mixture of human and ghost."

The thoughtful Tanjiro guessed, "It's Mr. Kanna who caused the Demon Slayer Squad to be in this situation, right?"

Sabito and Mako nodded with a heavy heart: "Yes..."

Saito and Mako tell Tanjiro what Kaede did before the battle of Ishikayama from the day they met Kaede.

Hearing Feng's deeds, Tanjiro was amazed and admired: "It is really respectable to save more than 60 ghosts with one's own power, let them regain their sanity and protect their lives, but such a kind and powerful Mr. Kanna , why did it happen later?"

Sato stared straight at the burning candles on the table: "Because our Demon Killing Team and Mr. Kanna were used as pawns by Kimai Tsuji, and the subsequent Battle of Shilushan was an opportunity for hostility."

Sato tells Tanjiro how Oni framed Maple and how he lured the Oni Slayer Squad to slaughter Ishikayama.

Even the gentle and kind Tanjiro couldn't help showing an angry look on his face: "This is too much!"

Mako sighed: "Our ghost killing team became the butcher's knife in the hands of Oni Wu Tsuji, and slaughtered the entire Shilu Mountain. Since that day, Mr. Kanna and our ghost killing team have been dying endlessly. The order to kill the team and so on are all Mr. Kanna's revenge on us, and part of the reason why Yiyong appeared in the station is also because of Mr. Kanna..."

Tanjiro guessed: "Is it Mr. Giyu looking for Mr. Kanna at the inn?"

Zhenmo shook his head and explained: "No, it's because Mr. Kanna almost killed a member of the Demon Slayer Squad not long ago, and now that person is seriously injured and dying, and needs medicine to maintain his life. drug."

Tanjiro had a complex expression on his face. After hearing Feng's complete deeds, his heart felt uncomfortable as if he had been picked up: "Is there no way to get rid of the hatred?"

Sato sighed: "We also want to dissolve the hatred between us and Mr. Kanna. Our lives can be said to be saved by Mr. Kanna, but... at this moment, there are very few people who can walk into Mr. Kanna's devastated heart." There is nothing we can do.”

After Sato and Mako left.

Tanjiro lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling in bewilderment.

I can't help but think about the Battle of Shilushan in my mind. The Shen Nafeng, who has never met, saw his family members die tragically one by one, how desperate it must be.

the next day.

Rinaki Sakuchi started training with Tanjiro in earnest this time.

Because the Ghost Killing Squad is in hibernation.

Sato and Mako don't have any tasks, and they are also helping Rinaki Sakon to train Tanjiro.

Under the training of the two current pillars and the former pillars.

Tanjiro is constantly getting stronger.

One year later.

Among the peaks of Sagiri Mountain.

Ryodaki Sakonji said to Tanjiro, "I have nothing more to teach you."

"Eh?"

Tanjiro was caught off guard by Ryodaki Sakinji's sudden words.

"After that, it's up to you to see if you can sublimate what I've taught you."

Rinaki Sakuchi brought Tanjiro to a huge boulder for the first time.

"If you can cut off this boulder, you can go to the 'final selection'."

Tanjiro looked at the rock in front of him, and the first reaction in his mind was that it was impossible to cut it off.

However, Ryodaki Sakumo left without saying a word.

Even Sabito, Mako, and Tomioka Yoshiyuki did not break the rock.

In Rinaki Sakonji's view, Tanjiro, who is too gentle, is not suitable to be a ghost hunter.

That's why Rinaki Sakonji doesn't want Tanjiro to participate in the final trial.

...

And starting today.

Tanjiro begins his practice of cutting rocks.

Ryodaki Saku recently warned Saitu and Mako not to help Tanjiro.

What others teach him will always belong to others, and what he understands belongs to himself.

Half a year passed by again.

Tanjiro still has no clue about cutting off the rock.

Sato and Mako, who couldn't stand it anymore, secretly gave Tanjiro a small treat.

Mako points out what Tanjiro is wrong, and Saito and Tanjiro practice against each other.

Ryodaki Zuo recently discovered that Sato and Mako were secretly helping Tanjiro train, but he just pretended not to see it.

After half a year.

Tanjiro stood in front of the rock, holding his breath and concentrating.

In the past year and a half, I recalled the teachings of Rinaki Sakuji, Sato and Mako in my mind.

Tanjiro let out a breath.

Holding the knife in both hands, he rushed to the rock and slashed at the rock.
