Time is like an arrow, the sun and the moon are like a shuttle.

A few minutes later.

Under the "torture" of the butterfly shinobi, or the venting torture, Yamada, who considers himself a descendant of the samurai, said everything that should be said.

The saber given by the Emperor was owned by King Hatohiko of Asakanomiya. This person is a descendant of the Fushimi Palace family who has the right to inherit the throne, and he is in the same vein as the imperial family.

Two years ago, Hatohiko graduated from the Army Non-commissioned Officer Academy and will marry the daughter of Emperor Meiji next year.

Therefore, the emperor gave him a sword to enhance his fame and status among the imperial family.

As Butterfly Shinobu said before, the vast majority of the privileges of the imperial family in Japan are concentrated in the emperor.

Even if you are a prince, in the era when there is no war, King Hatohiko has no chance to kill with a knife.

So, under the introduction of his classmates, he asked the descendant of the executioner's family, the descendant of Yamada Asaemon, to test the sword for him, and use human blood to strengthen his martial arts.

Moreover, King Hatohiko also asked for a lot, and said that the first person killed by the saber should be a woman.

It can be seen that he has a strong resentment against this marriage.

Therefore, the trio waited on this road for several days, and waited until the butterfly endured a woman, and many brave male workers escaped because of this.

That's all Yamada knows about this knife.

But with just a few words, Butterfly Ren's favor for this prince he hadn't met dropped again and again.

Even Genichiro couldn't help but sigh, and he didn't know what kind of cattle and horses were in the royal family now.

However, when it comes to the disposal of corpses, Yamada's statement is no different from that of his attendants, and he seems to be ignorant of the existence of ghosts, and only thinks that the police have removed the corpses.

"You're lying!" Butterfly Shinobu said with a hideous face, and the strength in his hand was even greater.

"I'm really ...... You don't know! I've never seen anything like this! ”

Yamada's face kept coming into contact with the cold ground, his teeth were almost smashed by butterflies, and his speech and pronunciation were a little blurred.

His tears, snot, and blood were mixed together, congealed in the cold wind, and looked very miserable.

It's like being crushed in the face by a car.

Seeing that Butterfly Shinobu was about to make a move, Ichiro hurriedly stopped her: "If you fight again, you will die." ”

Genichiro never imagined that this sentence would actually come out of his mouth, or if it was said to the sister of the female bodhisattva Butterfly Chanae.

Although this man is innocent of death, he has a lot of information about the Tokyo elite in his head, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he has a handle.

Just talking about King Hatohiko, after all, the appearance of such a scum in the imperial family is simply a slap in the face of Emperor Meiji.

There must be many high-ranking members of the cabinet who are willing to pay a lot of money to conceal this matter in order to prevent it from being exposed by foreign newspapers.

Coupled with the scandal that broke out in the previous naval hero, it can be said that Genichiro has two big killing weapons in his hands, which is enough to make the high-level leaders from the two clans of Changsa break their bones.

And this is exactly how the reed celebrity entered the upper echelons of the country.

Therefore, this Yamada is very useful to Koichiro, and he can't just let him die, and he needs to be completely drained of his surplus value.

"He even confessed to the prince, there is no reason to hide it for a ghost."

Genichiro said to the angry Butterfly Shinobi, "So he shouldn't be lying about this part." Those corpses were most likely used as rations by the ghosts living nearby. ”

“……”

Butterfly Shinobu frowned, "If you only dare to pick up corpses to eat, then this ghost shouldn't be very powerful." However, there are mountains and forests everywhere, and if you want to search the mountains, you have to search for them when you want. ”

Ichiro shook his head: "There's no need to go to the trouble of searching the mountain. ”

"What do you mean?" Butterfly ninja asked.

"For a month, they only tried a knife every few days, and the time was not fixed. But every time someone went missing, the next day the police and workers came looking for them, the bodies were gone. ”

Genichiro pointed to his feet, "It can be seen that the ghost will be near this path every night to check on the situation." ”

As he spoke, he kicked his follower, who was frightened by the butterfly and trembled violently, "Let me ask you, when was the last time you killed someone?" ”

"Four, four days ago."

These two people are talking about what the hell, cannibalism, obviously bluffed him.

The guy replied intermittently, "It's a lone drunk, drunk." ”

"And how long has it been since you killed people on this path?"

Ichiro continued to ask.

The guy thought for a moment, "Yes, it should be seven, seven or eight days...... Anyway, it's just a little more. ”

It doesn't look like this guy remembers very well.

Ichiro pulled the butterfly Shinobu a little farther away and said, "Since there was an interval of more than a week before, the ghost didn't give up coming here to feed. Now it's only been four days since he last eats, and there's no reason why he shouldn't try his luck here. So, we just need to use these guys as bait and wait for the rabbit. If that's right, this ghost will be here again tonight. ”

"Take," Butterfly Shinobi's eyes widened suddenly, "take humans as bait?" ”

Obviously, Ichiro's idea had a bit of a big impact on her.

Although the two guys on the ground couldn't hear what they were saying, they only felt a little creepy.

"What else do you want to do with these guys?"

Ichiro looked around and made sure that the crows were not nearby, so he whispered like a seductive demon, "If we send them to the police, we have no evidence of their murder." Besides, think about the knife, maybe these three guys will be saved by that prince. After that, these guys changed places and tried knives or something, and it was difficult to find them. ”

Although he most likely thought that these three guys would be killed before the prince could find the police.

But this statement is enough to fool a child like Butterfly Ninja who has no political sense.

Butterfly couldn't help but nod when she heard this.

These guys are no less dangerous than ghosts, and if they are handed over to the police, what difference will it make from letting the tiger go back to the mountains.

"But if you tell the people of the ghost killing team to take them away, you have this and that rule, such as not killing humans or anything."

Ichiro continued, "Think about the dead workers, even if the whereabouts of the bodies are unknown to these three guys, just by virtue of what they have already done...... Do you think these guys really should survive? ”

Butterfly Shinobu already had a monstrous hatred for these guys, so he gritted his teeth and said, "It shouldn't be." ”

To be honest, she couldn't wait to finish off these people with her own hands and cut them with a thousand knives.

But killing people and killing ghosts, after all, are two completely different things.

"That's it, since you're a member of the Ghost Slayer Team, you can't kill ......."

Ichiro squinted his eyes at the trio, and his tone was a little eerie.

"But it seems a little too easy for me to give them a knife. In that case, why not let the demons punish these guys so that they can die as they deserve? Since they like to dismantle people and let the ghosts eat them in one bite, it seems to be a very suitable way for them to die. ”

After saying that, he stared at Butterfly Shinobi's eyes, as if trying to force her to make a decision.

In fact, no matter what Butterfly Shinobu decides, Yamada, the culprit, he will take the bail first.

He just wanted to see how different the two sisters Butterfly Shinobi and Butterfly Chanae had in their attitudes towards people and ghosts.

Hearing his words, Butterfly couldn't help but shudder.

Ichiro may have killed someone, and her sister mentioned it to her.

Such a cold way of dealing with it, although it sounds relieving, but people are people.

The ghost that disgusted her even more, to deal with these disgusting people, Butterfly Shinobu thought to herself, she couldn't accept that kind of scene.

The duty of the swordsmen of the Demon Slayer Team is not to be chivalrous, but to protect humans from the mouth of the demons. Don't let ghosts hurt people, this is the meaning of their existence, and it is also the bottom line.

However, she couldn't say anything about letting Genichiro solve them, and she couldn't accept letting these guys live.

After a long time, Butterfly Shinobu breathed a sigh of relief and made a decision: "It's okay to let them be bait, but you can't let the ghost eat them." Before the ghost can take his mouth, we need to get rid of the ghost. ”

Genichiro looked at her for a moment, "What should these three guys do with them after that?" ”

Butterfly pouted, and a cold light rose in her eyes: "Just let them freeze to death in the snow to comfort the souls of those workers who died here." ”

Ichiro smiled stiffly: "Then do as you say." ”

I sighed silently in my heart.

[In essence, this child is also the same as Immortal River and Huazhu, he is an unwavering good person. 】

However, Butterfly Shinobu decided to give up on these three guys, and Yamada, he was able to laugh unconsciously.

Now that he had made a plan to wait for the rabbit to wait for the rabbit next, Genichiro immediately climbed the boulder and kicked the guy who was nailed to the tree with a bow and arrow, stacking the three of them together.

Then, after a while, the two of them found a low pit on the hillside next to the trail with boulders on three sides, and dragged all three of them into it.

With this kind of terrain, once the ghost enters, there is only one direction to get out, and as long as the two of them block the exit, it has no way to escape.

In order to prevent the trio from making a sound after a while, Butterfly Shinobu didn't even bother to explain, and knocked them all out very intimately.

Since he didn't know how long it would take for the ghost to appear, in order to prevent Yamada from freezing to death, Koichiro quietly stuffed a few grains of rice into the guy's mouth to ensure that he could survive for several hours in the cold wind.

As for those two people, since they are useless, let's die early.

After all of this, Genichiro pointed to the trees on either side.

"You hide in this tree, I'll go to the other side. Be careful, don't kill the ghosts when you jump down, and try your poison with them. ”

As he spoke, the hook lock of Shinobi's hand was launched, and Koichiro immediately came to the middle of the branch that was six or seven meters above the ground.

The butterfly pouted and easily came to another tree, nimble like a small leopard.

Both of them were very small, and there was no moonlight in their hiding places, so as long as it wasn't for a ghost with night vision looking into the trees, it would have been impossible to spot them.

Next, both of them breathed lightly and waited for the ghost to arrive.

As for heating, Butterfly Shinobu can use breathing to speed up blood circulation in his limbs. And Genichiro is not afraid of the cold at all.

Fortunately, the demons hovering around the neighborhood didn't tell them to wait.

After a while, among the white snow, a thin black shadow crawled in this direction.

The creature was crawling on all fours, and had demon-like yellow eyes, which stood out in the dark.

"Hey, why didn't you cut it today......"

The ghost followed the smell of blood all the way to the shallow pit, looking at the three "corpses", and his expression seemed to be a little disgusted.

Judging from what he said, the corpses before should have been disposed of by this guy.

"And three men at a time, I can't eat it, it's a pity......"

Ichiro hid in the tree and raised an eyebrow.

There is not a single paper figure on this ghost.

It seems that as Butterfly Shinobu said, he is a coward who dares to pick up corpses and eat.

There is food and it is so picky.

No wonder it's so small.

At this time, on the tree opposite Genichiro, Butterfly Shinobu was about to draw a sword and fall from the sky to subdue the ghost, but found that Genichiro shook his head at her.

There was no such thing as a black man, because in the darkness of thirty meters, two paper figures suddenly flew out, followed by heavy gasps.

The two of them held their breath and looked at it, and found that it was a strong evil ghost with horns, and it should have followed the smell.

Butterfly Shinobu was a little lucky, fortunately Genichiro came here with her today, otherwise even if he wasn't plotted by the three humans, at least one of these two ghosts would escape.

After all, her physical fitness is there, and it is really difficult to deal with two ghosts at once.

The horned ghost walked to the edge of the shallow pit, and saw that the little ghost was doing something to the "food", and without saying a word, a hungry tiger rushed over.

"Who is it?!"

The imp only had time to shout such a sentence before the claws of the horned ghost tore open his face.

Then the two ghosts fought.

These are two ghosts who don't even have blood ghost arts, and they can't use any tricks other than hand-to-hand combat, so naturally whoever has a stronger body will be a little more powerful.

It took less than two minutes for the horned ghost to pull off the two forelimbs of the little ghost, and then said viciously to the latter, "Get out! In the future, this is Lao Tzu's territory! ”

With their current class, one ghost can't kill another ghost, at most it's just a lesson for the other party.

The little ghost was not afraid when his arm was torn off, and his eyes were full of greed when he looked at the "corpse".

"Hey, why don't you be reasonable! There are three people here, how about sharing one of me, and I will never come here again! ”

"Can't you understand the nonsense? If you don't leave, I'll find a trunk and nail you to the stump until dawn!" ”

The horned ghost roared loudly, looking like he was about to move, clearly not meaning to share the food.

"Well, I can't beat you, but I'm much faster than you."

The imp sneered, and the lost forelimbs gradually grew.

"I know a few other ghosts, and if you want to eat alone, I'll run over and call them now! It's a big deal today, let's go and no one will eat! ”

Butterfly Shinobi's eyes lit up.

At the very least, this little ghost must be captured alive and forced to tell him the whereabouts of the other ghosts.

She winked at the string ichiro, who nodded in understanding.

He pointed first at himself, and then at the cow drunkard.

Then he pointed at Butterfly Shinobi, and then at the little ghost.

The task assignment is complete.

"Despicable fellow!"

The horned ghost grabbed one of his followers and threw it over, "Get out, don't let Lao Tzu see you again!" ”

At the moment when the follower flew towards the imp, Butterfly Shinobu and Ichiro fell from the sky at the same time.

"Flower Breath, One Shape, Little Lotus Horn!"

Butterfly Shinobu was like a bullet shot from top to bottom, and the small knife in his hand went straight through the little ghost's heart, nailing it to the ground.

Then she expertly took out a bottle of poison and poured the wisteria flower liquid into the little ghost's wound along the blade of the little knife, and the latter immediately let out a terrible scream.

Next, the poison will start circulating along the ghost's blood system until the toxin fills every corner of its body.

And Genichiro's side is even more straightforward.

Because Tie Zhaolei was not a Japanese wheel sword, he directly used the kinetic energy advantage of the jump slash to split the head of the horned ghost in half, and then swept it off.

This ghost's body looks strong, but the hardness of its skin is much smaller than that of the fourth of the lower strings, not to mention that Jin Iron and Steel Zhaolei has also undergone a sharp qualitative transformation.

After the head of the bull ghost rolled to the ground, it was immediately nailed to the ground by the iron thunder through the ear and could not move.

Although its body was still moving, its agility was greatly reduced, and Genichiro even used his body for evasion training until Butterfly Shinobu threw a bottle with the word "90%" written on it.

This means that this bottle of poison is 90% of wisteria flower juice and 10% of poison fly umbrella extract, which is the highest concentration bottle.

After taking the bottle, Kuichiro unscrewed it and poured it on the cross-section of the neck of the horned ghost, whose flesh seemed to have been splashed with sulfuric acid, emitting a puff of smoke and an indescribable stench of burning.

Then, the body of the horned ghost fell to the ground and rolled desperately for a while, and then it remained motionless, but the muscles and skin turned into a thick black gelatinous liquid and dispersed, as if it had been dissolved from the inside of the body.

It wasn't until half a minute later that the guy slowly drifted away with the wind little by little.
