Chapter 44: Divergence
"When the river flows...... Let's be friends. ”
Hearing this, Chuan Liushi subconsciously responded: "Aren't we already friends?" ”
Why did I take such a big risk to save you, who would do that if I didn't treat you as a friend?
Butterfly Shinobu raised her head and whistled loudly and highly, and when she was in the river, she looked inexplicably.
But Chuan Liushi was stunned, because he smelled the smell from the butterfly ninja again, he didn't understand it before, but with the smell he smelled when he killed the four ghosts as a reference, he understood.
What came from Butterfly Shinobi was an incomparable feeling of sadness and anger.
And after the butterfly shinobu whistled, her eyes were a little blurred, and her two-colored pupils were very beautiful and charming, but for some reason she felt a trace of danger from it, and he silently raised his vigilance.
Butterfly Shinobi, what do you want to do? Please, please don't let me down too much......
Blurred eyes, the butterfly couldn't help but lightly open her lips: "When the river flows, let me ask you, how many people have you killed and how many people have you eaten?" ”
Chuan Liushi clenched his fists: "No, I have never killed anyone, nor have I eaten anyone." ”
"I have only killed evil spirits and eaten evil spirits."
"Do you believe me?"
Chuanliu's pupils lit up, and he looked at Butterfly Shinobu with expectant eyes, hoping to hear the word "believe" without hesitation from her mouth.
However, Butterfly Shinobu sighed slightly: "When the river flows, please be honest, if you don't eat people, where does your physical energy come from......"
"Your strength can't be dealt with by ordinary ghost slayer swordsmen who are not proficient in breathing techniques, and how can a ghost who has never eaten a person achieve this kind of strength?"
"Tell me, how many people you have eaten, it will not prevent me from becoming good friends with you, just a little punishment, and confess the sins of those who died because of you."
"Let me ask you again, how many people have you eaten?"
Butterfly endures, when you don't believe in the river.
The light in the eyes of the river slowly dimmed, and the ghost killing team's impression of ghosts could not be easily changed.
He continued to explain: "I didn't lie to you, I can eat ghosts, so I can maintain my physical fitness without eating people, and the strength I have increased is also obtained by eating ghosts, please believe me." ”
"The four ghosts who attacked Shiqiao Town were all devoured by me, and I protected the town."
"And, I really, really haven't eaten anyone."
Hearing Chuanliu's words, Butterfly Shinobi's slender eyebrows furrowed slightly.
Protected the town?
Could it be that he can really eat ghosts?
Could it be that he really never ate people?
There is no need for man-eating ghosts, the ghost killing team has been unheard of for thousands of years, and there has never been a record of this.
Judging from Butterfly Shinobi's perception of the river, he is very rational and does not have the chaotic and violent feeling that ghosts give people.
But there are also many similar ghosts, such as Zodiac Seat, who gives people the feeling that he is also principled, has a self, and has a very clear logical thinking.
However, the Zodiac also eats people.
Because, man is the only food for ghosts, just as people must eat, and they can't live without eating, and the same is true for ghosts, they feed on people, and they have to watch cannibalism to survive, regardless of their real thoughts.
But Butterfly Shinobu has an inexplicable feeling about the river, and feels that what the river said is likely to be true.
When the river flows, I really want to believe you, but ah, I believe in you, it doesn't mean that others will believe you......
Shaking and staggering, the butterfly stood up with her body stubbornly.
"I really want to be friends with you."
"But this premise is that you have accepted the punishment and apologized to the person you killed."
Chuan Liushi's expression changed from hope to disappointment, and gradually calmed down again: "So, you still don't believe me?" ”
Butterfly Shinobu smiled and shook her head: "I believe in you, and I really want to be good friends with you." ”
And Chuan Liushi sighed: "Don't pretend anymore, I know, you are very painful, tired, and angry now." “
"Be good friends with me? You're not sincere, are you? ”
Butterfly Shinobi's body paused, and then chuckled again: "No, when the river flows, I sincerely hope so." ”
Her smile still looks so gentle, but now she sees a difference under the gentleness.
Underneath that gentleness was an extraordinary hollowness and loneliness, a disguise of stubbornness, and the same patience as her name.
Butterfly Shinobi, what kind of person are you? I can't see through it......
Chuan Liushi pointed to Butterfly Shinobi's forehead: "If what you said is true, then, why are you full of sadness and anger here?" ”
"I can clearly smell that sadness and anger that has overshadowed everything about you, and even become your code of conduct."
"Even though your smile has always been very gentle, beautiful and fascinating, but deep down in your heart, you have always hated me and ghosts."
"So, please don't say anything about being friends with me."
"If you can, stop laughing and let me see the real you."
That sadness may have stemmed from some past experience, but that anger definitely had a part of herself, and she hated me......
Even if she saved her regardless of life and death, she still retained full distrust and anger towards herself.
As the pillar of the ghost killing team, how could he really want to make friends with ghosts.
Although Butterfly Shinobu didn't say it, with the memories of Black Wolf Tooth and Miko, Kawayushi had already guessed the identity of Butterfly Shinobi, and at that time he thought of a way to save her.
After all, who else can hold on to the Ghost Slayer for so long in the hands of the Devil Slayer, who else can do it if he is not a pillar of the Ghost Slayer?
Hearing Kawarushi's words, a look of sad memory appeared in Butterfly Shinobi's eyes, but she quickly returned to her original state.
The smile was beautiful, and there was no trace of sadness and pain.
Butterfly couldn't help but caress her eyebrows, a little distressed: "After so long, this is already the real me......"
After speaking, she suddenly asked solemnly, "When the river flows, are you willing to go back to the ghost killing team with me?" ”
"It's not that I don't believe you, on the contrary, I'm willing to believe your words."
"It's just that what you said is too unbelievable, even if you say stealing things from the hospital's blood bank to eat and drink, I will not hesitate to believe it."
"But ah, what you said about eating ghosts really makes me unbelievable, even if what you say is true, it's beyond my comprehension."
"So come back to the Ghost Slayer with me, and if what you say is true, go back to the Ghost Slayer with me, and we'll study and test you."
"Whether your words are true or false, we will know when the time comes."
"I assure you with the dignity of being a pillar that as long as you tell the truth, then you are absolutely safe in the Ghost Slayer Team."
If he hadn't lied to himself, the lord would have been very interested in him, and if it could be confirmed that what he said was true, I would be able to be friends with him without any guilt......
Listening to the words of Butterfly Ninja, Chuanliu's heart became more and more calm and indifferent.
Back to the Demon Slayer?
Leave your life to the ghost hunters to decide?
Make yourself a fish on the chopping board?
If Chuan Liu Shi was willing to agree, then he had already promised to stop the nest.
Returning to the ghost killing team with the butterfly is playing with life.
It is estimated that eight or nine out of ten people in the Ghost Slayer Team have an extreme hatred for ghosts.
Butterfly Shinobi, you in front of me are the best example.
That hatred of ghosts has become so dense in my perception that it has condensed into substance.
Go to the ghost killing team, and there is a good chance that what awaits me is death......
And, Butterfly Shinobi, you've already lived up to my expectations of you, and you still want me to believe in you again?
(Ask for a ticket~)
