Chapter 12 He's fierce, but he's gentle
Tanjiro's body trembled, and he fell to his knees violently, and even his head was pressed against the snow: "Please, please don't kill your beans." ”
"I have nothing to lose anymore, my family, my brother, my mother, my brother, my sister...... They all died at the hands of demons. ”
"Now I only have your beans left, please don't take her away from me, I have nothing more to lose, your beans, it's all my ......"
Seeing Tanjiro, who was kneeling on the ground, trembling all over his body and crying, Tomioka Yoshiyu's plain face gradually turned yin and became vicious.
"Why kneel, why ask for mercy."
"Don't wag your tail like a weakling."
"Why did you protect your sister in your arms before, what you did should have been to pick up your axe and slash at me, instead of gambling on the kindness and mercy of others."
"I just could, but I could kill you and your sister together!"
"Don't you want to turn your sister into a human? The ghost may have a way, you go to the ghost to ask for mercy, and the ghost will give you the way? ”
"No, the ghost won't be able to help you, and neither will I."
After saying that, Tomioka Yoshiyu ignored Tanjiro's confused and painful eyes, and stabbed the Hinawa knife into the heart of your bean, causing you to cry out in pain, but she couldn't struggle.
Sighing in his heart, Tomioka Yoshiyoshi saw his former weak self in Tanjiro.
At that time, he was like an eldest brother, always protecting himself behind his back.
However, due to their own weakness, incompetence, cowardice.
In order to protect himself and everyone, the rabbit died at the hands of the ghost......
Don't cry and don't despair, this is not what you should do now, if your family dies, your brother may become a ghost and escape, and your sister will also become a ghost, you must be in pain.
I understand all this.
If I had come a day earlier, your family might have been saved, and you wouldn't have to suffer so much.
But what has already happened, it can no longer be changed, time is irreversible.
What you need now is to be strong and make yourself strong, not to hope for the mercy of others as you are.
Get angry, get angry, let anger be your motivation, move, change your weak behavior, and attack me in your own way.
Let me see how far you can go.
Tomioka's face was gloomy, and the Nichiren knife in his hand was about to stab again.
His exterior is as cold as a thousand-year-old iceberg, but his heart is as gentle as water......
Tanjiro, who saw the painful struggle of Youdouzi and realized that his pleas had no effect, stood up violently, and he reached out and threw a stone at Tomioka.
Instead of stabbing the beans again, Tomioka swung the hilt of his sword and knocked the stone away.
At this time, Tanjiro had already picked up the axe on the side, ran into the shadow of the thick green shirt, and walked around the green shirt rooted in the mountain, and approached Tomioka Yoshitoi.
Then he picked up his axe and rushed straight towards Tomioka.
Seeing this scene, Tomioka Yoshiyuki was extremely disappointed in his heart, and he said sharply: "Stupid, can you defeat the enemy with emotion?" ”
"You can be angry, but you also have to think rationally."
He hates iron a little, how can he defeat ghosts with emotion?
Tanjiro threw a stone again, and when Tomioka was blocking, he rushed towards Tomioka.
Tomioka Yoshiyuki raised the Hinawa knife with a gloomy face, and when Tanjiro leaned forward to slash Tomioka Yoshiyu, he chiseled under the handle of the knife and hit Tanjiro in the back, knocking Tanjiro directly to the ground.
The huge force made Tanjiro fall face to the snow, his body was exhausted early, and his heart was always in a state of shock and torture, and now he fainted directly.
"Huh? What about axes? ”
At this time, Tomioka Yoshiyoshi sensed that something was wrong, and he did not find the axe in Tanjiro's hands.
At this time, Tomioka Yoshiyong's heart tightened, and then tilted his head slightly.
An axe slammed into the tree next to Tomioka's head from the air, shaking down some snow.
In an instant, Tomioka understood the cause and effect.
Tanjiro tosses his axe at Tomioka as he steps into the shadow of the green shirt, while throwing rocks to attract his attention.
When he rushed over, he deliberately assumed the posture of picking an axe.
And the posture he had just now, his hands were covered by his body, deceiving Yoshiyuki Tomioka and holding an axe.
"Do you want to give this axe a chance to defeat me after I am defeated, and then create a chance for my sister to escape?"
"Good, really good."
What Tanjiro did just now is what Tomioka wants to see.
Courage is not recklessness, courage requires resourcefulness.
And Youdouzi, who was captured by Tomioka Yoshiyu, had a heart full of anger after seeing Tanjiro being knocked to the ground and fainting.
Her body suddenly became a little bigger, and her strength became stronger.
Unnoticed by Tomioka, he broke free from Tomioka's control and kicked Tomioka at the same time.
Tomioka parried with the blade of his sword, and was kicked back a few meters away with great force.
"Oh no, that kid is in danger."
After kicking Tomioka Yoshiyu, You Douzi stretched out her sharp claws straight towards Tanjiro on the ground, and Tomioka Yoshiyoshi opened his legs to stop him.
But he stopped suddenly.
Because Youdouko didn't make any further movements, she stood in front of Tanjiro, her sharp nails glistening coldly, and she let out a threatening roar at Tomioka.
"Ghosts, protecting humans?"
Tomioka has seen many examples of relatives turning into ghosts, and there were people who, like Tanjiro today, begged him not to hurt their loved ones.
Tomioka couldn't bear it, and then agreed to the plea, but the man was devoured by the demons of his relatives......
Hungry ghosts, they don't care if you're a relative or not, they just devour everything around them, anyone.
The girl in front of me was cured by my stabbing just now, and when she becomes a ghost, she also consumes physical strength, and she must be hungry and want to go crazy now.
But even so, the ghost girl resisted hunger and stood firmly in front of her brother, wanting to protect him from being hurt by herself.
This is the first time Tomioka has seen this kind of thing.
It turns out that ghosts can really keep their sanity in the face of hunger and blood food?
With a hideous face, you open her fangs and stretch out her claws to rush towards Tomioka, who did not use a Hinawa knife, but simply slashed at your bean's neck with a simple hand knife and knocked him unconscious.
When Youdouzi was unconscious, Tomioka tied a turquoise bamboo tube to her mouth to prevent her from outbursting and hurting people.
After waiting quietly for a while, Tanjiro woke up and saw Youdou still breathing beside him, and his heart that had been hanging finally relaxed.
At this time, Tomioka Yoshiyoshi was leaning against a tree, and he said to Tanjiro.
"Do you want me to spare your sister?"
Tanjiro paused for a moment, then struggled to sit up and said in surprise: "I think, your beans will never eat people, please let her go." ”
Tomioka Yoshiyoshi left the tree he was leaning on, he slowly approached Tanjiro, then looked down at him, and said seriously: "Then I need your assurance, when your sister can't control herself and becomes a cannibal ghost, you will kill her with your own hands, and then commit suicide to apologize." ”
Tanjiro was silent for a moment, and then solemnly promised, "If one day, your beans eat someone, I will kill her with my own hands and apologize to the one who was killed with my own life." ”
"Youdouzi has been so kind since she was a child, she definitely doesn't want to hurt others, and she definitely doesn't want to become a cannibal......"
Hearing the answer he wanted, Tomioka said softly.
"Your sister, she just protected you."
"Do you want to turn her into a human and gain the power to fight demons?"
"Go to the foothills of the Narrow Fog Mountain, find a person named Scales Left Jinji, and worship him as a teacher."
"Just say that I, Yoshitoshi Tomioka, let you go, and he will take you in and teach you how to kill ghosts."
"Oh, by the way, don't let your sister bask in the sun, the ghost will die when she touches the sun, take her away while the sun hasn't come out yet."
After talking for a while, Tanjiro carried your beans on his back and set out on the road to the Narrow Kiri Mountains, and also embarked on the road to become stronger and slay demons......
At this time, Tanjiro had already understood Tomioka's good intentions, and he couldn't help but be grateful.
