Chapter 18: There are butterflies bathing in the moonlight
Under the cover of night, the river rushes down in the forest.
He learned from Black Wolf's Tooth memories that the town ahead was called Shiqiao Town, which was much more prosperous than the town at the foot of the mountain before the river.
He wants to find Tanjiro, but he doesn't know where it is, so he needs to go to Ishibashi Town to make some inquiries to confirm his location, and then go to the old town to find Tanjiro.
At a bright stream with moonlight reflections, the river stopped.
He lowered his head and slowly cast his gaze on the mirror-clear surface of the stream.
When the river flows, he is very reluctant to see a hideous and vicious demon face.
"Whew, it's okay."
After seeing his appearance at the moment, Chuan Liushi breathed a sigh of relief.
The face reflected on the surface of the stream looked roughly the same as before, except that his face was sickly pale, and it looked a little weak and weird.
However, when you open your mouth, you can see a mouth full of sharp fangs.
"These fangs should be able to be controlled."
His fingernails can become as sharp as a knife blade with the slightest movement of his mind, but they can also be restored to their original shape at will.
Fangs, I guess it's okay.
Focus your mind on the fangs, and try to put them away as you go.
After a while, the full mouth of fangs slowly changed shape, into flat and smooth teeth, but there are two fangs that are difficult to change completely, only smaller and shorter, and then the mouth is very firm when it flows, and it is unwilling to change again.
"Okay, it looks a bit like a little tiger tooth, it's pretty good-looking, so I'll leave you alone."
Originally, I wanted to break it up and see if I could control it when I recovered, but after seeing its shape, I thought it was acceptable, so I left it behind.
A little disgusted, he looked at his clothes and body covered with dust and brown bloodstains, and jumped into the stream when the river was flowing, and the clear stream immediately became muddy and dim.
There were vaguely a few small fry floating up on their bellies, and they touched their heads a little awkwardly when the river flowed, and then sank their heads directly into the stream, feeling the cool stream flowing around them.
"There seems to be a large pool of water below the creek."
"Go there, this stream is too shallow to be interesting."
The water here can only reach the chest of the river, and the sides are a little narrow, only less than two meters, although it is enough to take a bath, but it is not enough to release the vitality of the body in the water when the river is flowing.
Now he always feels that he has inexhaustible strength and has nowhere to vent his energy.
The black wolf fang gave him a lot of strength, but it would take some time to digest it into his own.
Diving directly into the water without showing his head, he quickly swam towards the waterhole in the memory of the black wolf fang, he liked the feeling of being in the water all over, which allowed him to forget all his troubles for a while.
Occasionally came out of the water to breathe a few breaths of air, and after ten minutes, the river swam through the pool.
"Black Wolf Fang, do you have any misunderstanding about the waterhole?"
"This is obviously a lake!"
As far as the eye can see, the surface of the lake is sparkling, and occasionally a few large fish jump up, as if looking for a dragon gate that does not exist.
There was a moment of silence as the river flowed, and it entered the lake from its tributaries.
He dived into the lake and did not stop until he was about ten meters deep.
A large carp of more than one meter slowly swam past the river, and when the river was playfully tugging at the tail of the big carp, the frightened big carp shook its tail violently, and then swam forward with a sullen face.
The dumbfounded appearance made Chuan Liushi chuckle.
The heavy pressure and responsibility on his body seem to have been unloaded now, and he is a little lighter.
When the river was flowing, it suddenly accelerated in the water, and the ghost's physique was really strong, and he rushed towards the big carp like an arrow from the string.
Sensing the danger, the big carp panicked and lost its way, and then swam quickly towards the surface of the lake.
The river is chasing behind, and the distance between the two is getting closer and closer.
When the river was flowing, he stretched out his hand and was only one knuckle away from catching the fish's tail, but the big carp flicked its tail again and rushed directly out of the lake.
However, although the big carp jumped, it was faster when it was in the river, and after jumping out of the lake, it caught the big carp in mid-air during the river.
After catching it, he jumped out of the river and jumped to the other side of the lake with a wet body.
He patted the big carp and threw it into the water, watching it dive into the deep water in panic.
But at this moment, Chuanliu suddenly felt a gust of wind, which gently circled around his neck, and then suddenly went upward, cutting off a strand of his sideburns.
"Huh? What's going on with this wind. ”
When he looked up at the river, there was a butterfly-like figure, bathed in the moonlight, looking at him condescendingly.
In a trance, when the river flowed, it was like seeing a large area of purple butterflies dancing in the moonlight.
At this time, a pair of very peculiar eyes met the water time.
The people of this world have strange eye and hair colors, but Chuan Liushi swears that these eyes are the most strange and beautiful he has ever seen.
On the delicate face, the eyes are a gradient of purple from bottom to top, and at the most intense place of purple, there is an invisible dividing line, and above the dividing line, it is grayish-white.
These two colors of eyes are incomparably beautiful and charming in the feeling of the river.
"Who are you? What are you doing here? ”
The crisp, beautiful and gentle voice comes to the ears when the river flows.
He was stunned for a moment, and then said calmly: "I was just passing by here, and I was just interested in taking a bath." ”
Butterfly Shinobu held the Hinchakra knife with his hand behind his back, trembling slightly.
I almost cut this man down as a ghost.
She had just been leaping over the trees, looking for the demons of Lanli Mountain, when the river suddenly burst out of the water and scared her.
If he hadn't put away the knife at the last moment, it was very likely that he would have been beheaded directly.
