Chapter 65: Saburo
In the evening, the sun had set and it was slightly dark.
When wearing a black feather weaving river, he walked step by step on the mountainside, and this feather weaving is made of fine black thorns, which is very peculiar.
With this black thorn that could weave clothes at any time, he no longer had to worry about his clothes being damaged by the battle.
But he was a little apprehensive when he was in the middle of the river, and if he wanted to, he could fly up quickly, but he didn't, but walked slowly on foot, feeling the touch of contact with the ground.
After helping Takahashi fix the hole in the roof, he left the town of Tisu and came here, at the foot of the mountain of his home.
The road that has been walked for several years is so familiar that I feel like I can walk home with my eyes closed.
He jumped suddenly, leaping more than three meters high and plucking a green leaf from the somewhat green treetops.
The current river is not ghosted, and completely maintaining the appearance of a human can retain 20% of the power of the heyday, which is already much stronger than the average person.
Every step he took left deep footprints on the soft ground, and he couldn't control himself a little, and his steps were vain.
After the battle with Matsushita, Kawarushi tried not to stop the fire god Kagura breathing method, because the severe pain was already bearable.
During this period, he also stopped breathing because his body reached its limit and almost fainted, but now, Chuan Liushi feels that his body has undergone some changes.
At first, he ran Kagura, the god of fire, and with every breath his body was in terrible pain, and all the cells were screaming and being torn apart and then recovered.
However, Chuanliu found that the more times he ran the breathing method, the stronger the body's immunity to severe pain and the longer it could endure.
No, it doesn't seem that his immunity has increased, but that his body has been changed by the breathing method, and it has become more and more in line with Kagura, the god of fire.
By now, he can concentrate on breathing at all times, but this still requires him to actively control it, and his body does not operate instinctively.
Now in the river, I am trying to turn it into my instinct.
And all of this is for the rapid transformation of power, he has accumulated a lot of ghost energy in his body, but relying on his body to absorb it slowly, he feels that it is enough for him not to eat or drink for a hundred years.
However, he was so hungry for power that he decided to use the breathing method to transform the energy stored in his body, even if the process would waste nine out of ten.
After running Kagura, the god of fire, every cell in the body seems to become a bottomless black hole, absorbing energy all the time.
Now that the river is flowing, the accumulated energy has almost been consumed, and I feel a faint feeling of hunger.
Relying on these energies, his physique, compared to when he fought with Panasonic, has improved by more than fifty percent, which is already a great improvement in such a short period of time.
He felt that he could fight hard with Miko at the beginning, and his steel physique had reached the level of her at that time, and it was even harder.
Blazing Feather's energy also became majestic and somewhat depressed, and there was a feeling that Blazing Feather was about to come out, and Blazing Feather seemed to be condensing something, but it was still a little short.
In this way, it is necessary to kill more demons in order to get enough food to satisfy the thirst of the body's cells.
"Winter is almost over, will spring be late?"
When the river flows, he crushed the green leaves in his hand and smiled faintly.
This body, which can devour and plunder ghosts and constantly strengthen, is his greatest reliance, and Onimai Tsuji is not miserable, waiting for me.
After moving forward for a few tens of meters, a turning place appeared in front of the river, and he walked over it, and a wooden house appeared in his field of vision.
This is not his home, it is still halfway up the mountain, and it is a wooden house for an old man who lives alone.
Everyone else calls him Grandpa Saburo, and he is a very old man.
When the river passed by, he didn't intend to disturb the old man Saburo, but the door of the wooden house creaked open, and the old man Saburo saw the river.
He paused, and then a smile appeared on his old face: "When the river flows...... I'm so happy to see you again, it's good that you're okay. ”
"I kept Tanjiro for one night with me that day, but the next day your house was attacked by wild beasts......"
"It's so unfortunate, please mourn."
I see...... Tanjiro was staying at his house, so he didn't come back that night.
Chuanliu bowed slightly to the old man Saburo, and said sincerely: "Thank you Grandpa Saburo, if you hadn't kept Tanjiro, he might have suffered an accident and been hurt by a ghost." ”
He didn't mean to hide it, an old man like Saburo who has lived for so long still understands the dark side of the world, and he told the story to Kawaru at the beginning, but Kawaru didn't take it seriously......
Hearing Chuanliu's words, the old man Saburo showed a wry smile: "So you know that it was done by a ghost......
"We humans are nothing more than prey in the presence of ghosts, alas."
Chuan Liushi didn't answer, but asked: "Grandpa Saburo, do you want to move out of here, this location is remote, you are alone, it is inconvenient if something happens, and there may be ghosts around here, and it is very dangerous to be alone." ”
Old man Saburo can be said to have saved Tanjiro indirectly, and if he wanted to, Kawatoki didn't mind spending time settling him into the town.
Although the town is not safe, it is much better than living alone in the mountains, and ghosts are generally not too rampant in human gathering places, otherwise they will attract swordsmen from the ghost killing team.
The old man San Lang waved his hand: "No need, no need, the old man can't stand the toss, I'm used to it here, just waiting for the day when I suddenly die, and then reunite with my family." ”
"Besides, the ghost is not interested in old bones like me, the meat is not delicious, and he may still have teeth, haha."
Chuan Liushi nodded, and then said, "Then I won't force it." ”
"Grandpa San Lang, I'm going to go home and have a look, so I won't tell you more."
The old man San Lang smiled: "Okay, then you can go quickly." “
Chuanliushi was about to leave, but the old man San Lang suddenly patted his head and called Chuanliushi: "Wait." ”
Chuanliu patiently asked, "What's wrong?" Is there anything else going on with Grandpa Saburo? ”
Old Man San Lang shook his head, and then sighed: "People are old and can't remember things." ”
"I forgot what I was thinking about just now, and I forgot it in a blink of an eye, and now my memory is really bad."
"Wait for me for a while, just for a while."
After saying that, the old man Saburo turned around and returned to the house, and his keen sense of hearing told him that the old man Saburo was looking for something.
After a while, the old man Saburo walked out of the house, holding two cloth bags in his hands, one large and one small.
As he slowly approached the river, the old man Saburo smiled kindly.
"I have some wisteria flowers for you here, so you can bring them over to pay tribute to your family."
"There is also a wisteria flower sachet I made myself, there is an extra one, so let's give it to you too."
"You shouldn't stay here for too long, this should be my blessing grandpa, you shouldn't know that ghosts hate wisteria flowers."
"You take this wisteria flower sachet and leave, I also hope that you can be safe in the future and don't encounter ghosts again."
Old man Saburo knows a lot about ghosts because his family was killed by ghosts, and he knows that ghosts hate the smell of wisteria flowers, so they usually take a detour away from wisteria flowers.
He has wisteria flowers in his house, but there are not many of them, and when he encountered the river this time, because he knew that his house was attacked by ghosts, the old man Saburo was ready to give him some wisteria flowers out of kindness.
As he spoke, Old Man Saburo loosened the rope that was tightly tied to the mouth of the bag, revealing the purple flowers inside.
And at the moment when the old man Saburo opened the bag, Chuan Liushi subconsciously took a step back.
Because he smelled an extremely pungent smell in the wisteria flower in the hands of the old man Saburo.
Due to his keen sense of smell during the river, the smell was super irritating to him, almost making him vomit and faint......
