Chapter 475: Demon Slayer Blade, End!
The weather has cleared, but the snow in the mountains and forests will not melt as quickly as in a crowded town, Rao is Luo Jie let go of his feet and hurried at full speed, and it took nearly two hours to reach Zaomen's house.
Seeing Luo Jie's visit again, the "Stove Gate Aoi Branch", who was washing clothes, couldn't help but show surprise, and after being stunned for a moment, he hurriedly wiped his hands on his apron and stood up.
"Mister Dire, you ...... How did you get here? Tanjiro went up the mountain early in the morning to chop wood, and now he is not at home, and it is estimated that he will not come back until almost nightfall. ”
Luo Jie took off the back basket on his body and put it on the ground, wiped the fine sweat on his forehead, and said with a smile: "Yesterday, thanks to the care of Mrs. Kamato and Tanjiro, I brought some gifts today to express my gratitude. ”
"Stove Gate Aoi Branch" hurriedly waved his hand nervously and said, "I can't do it, I can't do it...... Mr. Dire, I'm ashamed to say that our family is in poor condition, and we have nothing to entertain you, so how can we receive your gifts? ”
Luo Jie knew that the "Stove Gate Kuizhi" would have this kind of reaction, and had already prepared to deal with it in advance, pointing in the direction of the town and smiling: "I bought a house in the town, and I will live here for a long time in the future, this is just a meeting gift between neighbors, and every household in the town has ...... I'm going to take care of you in the future. ”
Luo Jie's really wasn't making up a rhetoric to get the "Aoi Branch" to accept the gifts, when he bought these things, he had already commissioned the grocery store to give them to every household in the town in his name.
It's just that he didn't say that the gifts he gave to the townspeople were calculated by household, and those given to the stove house were counted by capitation.
Hearing Luo Jie say this, "Stove Gate Kwai Branch" accepted the gift with peace of mind, after all, this kind of new neighbor gift belongs to traditional etiquette, if you don't accept it, there will be a sense of not welcoming the other party, which is quite rude.
After all, Luo Jie is not a real nobleman, and he can't do that kind of stupid thing of "why not eat minced meat", and the gifts he prepared don't have any flashy valuables, basically some food and cloth necessities, although it seems a little unremarkable, but it is quite practical for a poor family like the Zaomen family.
Seeing these gifts, "Zaomen Aoizhi" was overjoyed, and said, "It's too expensive", and then beckoned a few children in the family to help carry things.
Luo Jie took out a bag of candy and divided it among the children, and asked curiously to "Stove Gate Kui Zhi": "Mrs. Stove Gate, why didn't you see your beans?" ”
The youngest child of the Zaomon family, "Sixth Wife", is still in infancy, and usually the eldest daughter "Zaomon You Bean" helps take care of it, but today it has been replaced by the second daughter "Kamato Hanako" with a doll hair.
Because of the BUFF of -20 favorability, this little girl was already unpleasant to Luo Jie, but when she heard Luo Jie ask about her sister, she immediately broke out.
"It's not because of you!"
"Hanako!"
"Kamado Aoi" was shocked and wanted to stop the second daughter from continuing, but "Kamado Hanako" had no intention of stopping.
"It's all about entertaining you, and Mom burned the only charcoal in the house! We couldn't afford to make a fire at night, and my sister secretly gave the quilt to me and "Shigeru" at night, and now I'm sick from the cold! ”
Only then did Luo Jie remember a detail that he hadn't noticed yesterday.
When he first arrived at the house, there was no open flame in the fire pit inside the house, and later the "Zaomen Bean" brought charcoal from outside to relight the fire.
Luo Jie didn't care too much about it before, after all, who would have thought that a charcoal seller would be short of charcoal at home? But now that I think about it, that's really how it happened.
Those who are all over Luo Qi are not silkworm breeders.
Smack——!
The slap of "Kamado Aoichi" hit "Kamado Hanako" in the face, and the little girl ran back to the room crying with the child on her back.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Dire, children don't know how to be polite, please bear with me." "Aoi Eda of the Stove" bowed his forehead and apologized to Luo Jie.
"No, I'm also responsible for this, it's because I know too little about civilian life."
Luo Jie shuttled through various fantasy worlds in his previous life, and had seen a worse situation than the Zaomen family, and his heart would no longer be too touched by this kind of thing, but there would still be more or less emotion.
"Are you very sick? I know a little bit about medicine, can you take me to see it? ”
"Then trouble Mr. Dire."
"Stove Gate Kwai Branch" thanked him again and hurriedly took Luo Jie to the house to receive it.
"Kamado Bean" was lying on the floor in the middle room, covered with several layers of thin quilts, and her little baby's fat face was sickly flushed with fever, and her rapid breathing was bubbling white in the cold room.
"Kamado Hanako" knelt next to her sister, her red eyes were still with tears, and when she saw her mother and Luo Jie coming in, she turned her face to the side angrily, but she didn't say anything more.
Luo Jie put his hand on the forehead of "Zaomen You Bean", it was very hot, even if he didn't know the exact temperature, he knew very well that this girl was in a bad condition.
This year is not as good as modern times, there is a headache and brain fever to find two pills to eat and sleep and you can get up and continue to be high, poor people can only rely on their own hard resistance, so even if it is a small illness such as a cold, the mortality rate is extremely high.
"She's in a dangerous temperature right now, and she has to get rid of her fever quickly."
"Stove Gate Aoi Branch" panicked when he heard this, got up and said, "Then I'll go to the town to get medicine now!" ”
"It's too late!"
Now that the snow is covering the mountain, from the town to the Zaomen house, even if it takes nearly two hours to walk with Luo Jie's footsteps, the "Zaomen Kwai Branch" is just an ordinary weak woman, and when she grabs the medicine from the town and rushes back, it is estimated that the "Zaomen You Beans" are already cold.
"Aoi Branch" sat on the ground with a dejected face, tears pouring out uncontrollably.
She has lost her husband, and now God is going to take her daughter from her?
Luo Jie also frowned.
In the original book, there is no part where "Zaomen You Beans" is sick, is it really because of the butterfly effect caused by his rash contact with the Zaomen family......
If he didn't offer to visit the house, the house wouldn't burn all the charcoal for him to heat at night; If the charcoal is not burned, the "Stove Gate Beans" will not get cold and fever.
Ma Dan, after doing it for a long time, this thing is still his pot!
What else can I do? Save people!
"Kamado Beans" is the first heroine in the original book, and it is also the spiritual pillar of "Kamado Tanjiro" who has exploded again and again, if she dies here, the butterfly effect caused by it will not be so little and a half.
It's probably the plot as follows:
"Kamado Tanjiro" sells charcoal and returns home, and when he finds that his family has been completely destroyed by demons, he kneels on the ground and cries bitterly.
The high-ranking member of the ghost killing team, "Tomioka Yoshiyong", passed by, glanced at it from a distance, shook his head and secretly said that it was too late, but quietly left.
"Demon Slayer", end!
Thinking of this, Luo Jie no longer hesitated, and directly put the "Zaomen Beans" on his back together with the quilt, and after tying them firmly with a rope that bundled firewood in the corner of the wall, he turned to the "Zaomen Aoi Branch" and said, "Mrs. Zaomen, if you believe me, give me your beans, and I will take her down the mountain now!" ”
