Chapter 24: Door-to-door

After a night of fighting, the sky gradually became brighter.

Fuji attack Yamanouchi.

Instinctively afraid of the sun, the demons hide in shadows where the sun does not shine.

And this also gave the exhausted pickers a chance to breathe.

Tanjiro Kamado rubbed his sore arm, his face tired.

Although the strength of the demons used for the selection of the team has been weakened to the extreme, it is still extremely threatening to the fledgling swordsmen.

Mental tension, physical exertion, and the culling of demons......

All of them were the cause of the deaths of the young swordsmen.

Tanjiro put away his long knife and found a sunny place to lie down.

Although the probability is low, he doesn't want to be attacked by evil spirits in his sleep.

After lying down for a while, he began to snore.

This scene is a microcosm of the selection of Fuji Yamauchi today.

After a night of fighting, the surviving swordsmen found a safe place to take a break and take a break.

You must know that this cruel selection can last for seven days, and if you don't pay attention to every trace of recovery, the end may end in death.

On the other side, after a night's emergency journey, the "Flame Pillar" Purgatory Kyojuro and the "Insect Pillar" Butterfly Shinobu also came to the platform at the foot of Fuji Attack Mountain.

In the face of the two "pillar" level swordsmen, Hui Liya and Hika Shikiya owe their respect.

Even if they are members of the Sanyashiki clan, the children of the contemporary "masters" should not be rude in front of the "pillars".

"Mr. Purgatory, Miss Butterfly, thank you for your assistance."

"It is the duty of the strong to protect the weak, and it is the mission of the pillar to kill the evil spirits!" Purgatory Kyojurou held the knife in one hand, and his red eyes shone like fire.

"Hika, Hui Liya, didn't I tell you last time~ Call me forbearance, or sister, don't call me Miss Butterfly~"

"Okay, Miss Butterfly." ×2

"What two unlovely children~"

Looking at the flat expressions of the two, Butterfly Ren showed a slightly confused look.

"Mr. Purgatory, Miss Butterfly, what are we going to do next? Will this selection continue, or will you take advantage of the fact that the ghost of the wind up will not appear during the day to gather everyone and leave? ”

The black-haired maternity yakoshiki Teru Riya was the first to open the topic.

Now there are only two roads in front of the people of Fuji Raid Mountain.

Fight, or flee.

There is no other way.

"Even if it's a winding ghost, as a pillar, I will never allow it to hurt the weak!"

Yanzhu Purgatory Xingjulang was the first to speak.

"Ahh Mr. Purgatory is really anxious~" Butterfly smiled with a sigh, and then turned to face Teruya and Hika Sanyashiki: "Before coming, we received an order from the lord that the selection for joining the team will continue, as for the ghost of the wind~"

"We're going to do it!" Purgatory Kyojuro said loudly.

“…… Now that my father has given the order, I will bother Mr. Purgatory and Miss Butterfly. The two bowed their heads slightly, indicating that they understood.

In the Ghost Slayer Team, the "Lord Lord" is the leader who is supported by everyone, and no one will disobey his orders.

In fact, why the lord did not order the suspension of the selection of the team, the reason for this, as the heir of the Sanyashiki family, has long been speculated.

The casualty rate of the ghost killing team is very terrifying.

Unlike the exaggerated physical hardness and recovery ability of the demons, the swordsmen of the Demon Slayer Team are still only mortal in the flesh even after a long period of training, and in the battle, as long as they are not careful, they will be left with disabilities and even death.

In order to fight the demons that continue to appear, the Demon Slayer must replenish fresh blood every year.

And last year, because of the escape of the ghosts in the vine attack mountain, the selection of joining the team has been suspended once.

If it continues to be suspended this year, the ghost slayer team will face an embarrassing situation, and the already difficult battle line will collapse in an instant.

Therefore, this year's selection must not stop!

Even if it costs a lot!

"Mr. Purgatory, Miss Butterfly, it's been very hard for the two of you to come here, here are some dry food, please rest as soon as possible after replenishing your strength."

"Everything, please."

As he spoke, Sanyashiki Teruriya and Sanyashiki Hika bowed deeply.

"Don't worry, leave it to me!" Purgatory Kyojuro laughed, "Just to see if the so-called Upper String Ghost can block the Red Flame Knife in my hand!" ”

"Don't worry~ Leave it to us." Butterfly smiled and nodded.

……

Time passed quietly, and soon the sun was shining.

When the last ray of sunlight was swallowed up, and the darkness completely enveloped the traces of the world, in front of the main gate of the vine attack mountain, a rickety figure came.

It walks slowly, as it is half-kneeling on the ground, crawling slowly.

Like an old man who is dying.

However, the moment it appeared and stepped foot on the vine-raiding mountain realm, Purgatory Kyojuro, who was on the foothill platform and closed his eyes to recuperate, immediately opened his eyes.

In the darkness, two points of crimson light up.

"It's coming!"

At this time, Butterfly Shinobi, who reacted a little slower, also stood up, and looked at the direction of the main gate mountain road with lilac eyes: "Ah, it's worthy of being a ghost of the wind, and I really don't hide my existence at all~"

Without hesitation, Purgatory Xingjurou directly pulled out the red red blade on his waist and rushed in the direction where the ghost qi came from.

"I'm impatient, Mr. Purgatory."

The butterfly touched the strangely shaped inverted sword of the Japanese wheel knife, and then tapped under her feet, like a flying butterfly, flashing in the dark night.

"I wish you good luck!"

On the platform at the foot of the mountain, Sanyashiki Teruriya and Sanyashiki Hika clasped their hands together and prayed silently.

……

When the ghost of the upper string stepped into the vine attack mountain without concealment and was noticed by the purgatory Kyojuro, Qianjulang, who was far away inside the vine attack mountain, also seemed to look in the direction of the main gate mountain road.

"This ghostly ......"

Chijuro raised his head and said word by word:

"Winding No. 4, Half Tengu!"

In the memory, the monstrous wind that swept in, the strange afterlife incarnation......

He smiled: "It just so happens that I didn't fight that day, and this time, I won't let you run away by saying anything!" ”

Under the moonlight, Senjuro's figure disappeared suddenly, and when he reappeared, he had already run dozens of meters in the direction of the main gate mountain road.

……

Vine attack mountain, stone steps mountain road.

"Upper Quarter No. 4" Half Tengu still crawled forward unhurriedly, unconcerned by the breath of the two rushing towards it.

As a winding ghost, it has not remembered how many people it has eaten for hundreds of years.

What kind of "ghost slayer swordsman" is just weak food.

Even if it's a "pillar", it's just a slightly stronger food.

The task given by the adults is to kill all the humans who appear here, and not a single one will be left!

Therefore, after confirming last night that the selection of the Ghost Slayer Team had officially begun, it was no longer hidden, and appeared directly and openly.

Why should it hide itself in the face of the dying?

"Hey, hey, hey...... Come on, come on, my lovely foodies, hehehehe......"
