149 Figures in the Dark
The incident of the Infinity Train was eventually officially defined as an accidental derailment event.
This is destined to make the Infinity Train headlines again in the newspapers, and the maintenance personnel related to the Infinity Train will face a series of accountability.
After all, the infinite train was returned to the factory for overhaul before, and it was a train that was allowed to be re-put into operation after people kept saying "there is no abnormality", and now it has just set sail and there is such a big thing, and it is impossible for those relevant personnel who have satirized the rumors of "cannibalism" of the infinite train in the newspaper not to take some responsibility.
The only thing to be thankful for is that all 200 passengers on the train are safe and sound, which may be regarded as a miracle by many people, right?
As for the existence of the Ghost Slayer Team, it is not mentioned from beginning to end.
Because the Ghost Slayer is an unofficial organization, strictly speaking, it is not allowed to even go to the streets with a knife to swagger into the market, how can it be regarded as a hero who saved 200 passengers?
There are very few people in the world who know about the existence of ghosts, and ghosts are nothing more than fiction in the eyes of many people, and even if someone tells them that the incident of the infinite train is all caused by ghosts, most people will scoff at it.
Therefore, whether it is a ghost or a ghost killing team, it is destined not to be reported in this incident.
In a sense, the Demon Slayer Team, like the ghosts, is an existence that can only move in the dark.
Although they have a long history of existence, they are a non-governmental organization formed spontaneously by those who are persecuted by demons.
Fame and fortune and the like, it doesn't matter to them at all.
Rieger doesn't think that's necessarily a bad thing.
"The enemy of the ghost killing team is a ghost, a monster that eats human flesh and blood, if you act outside, it is not impossible for ghosts to take the initiative to attack them, and even attack the people around them, this is a very dangerous thing, and it must be eliminated.
Purgatory Kyojuro gave such a statement, and told Li Ge that the ghost killing team in history had been nearly destroyed by the ghost several times, so the ghost killing team was basically hidden in the shadows, and it was an underground organization that would not announce its existence.
In particular, the location of the lord who is the leader of the Demon Slayer is the top secret of top secrets, not only is the location absolutely hidden, but the route to get there changes every once in a while, and few people can know how to get there except for the pillar.
And this time ....
"I'll take you to my lord! Jiguo Boy!"
Purgatory Kyojurou actually made such a declaration, and called him by the name that Li Ge had reported in front of the Yakuza Seat. ”
"Is that good?"
Rieg didn't refuse, just asked.
"No problem!" Purgatory Xingjulang said: "It's better to say that this is the lord's initiative to ask, he wants to meet you!"
"What did he ask for?" Li Ge was surprised, and said, "Does the leader of your ghost killing team already know about me?"
"Hmm!" Purgatory Xingjuro generously admitted: "Because we have a crow, my crow has sent back the information of the young man of the stepcountry!"
The Raven is a type of crow that has been professionally trained by the Demon Slayer to not only speak, but also has a clear sense of self.
The Ghost Slayer has specially trained this crow to use it as a means of communicating with each other, transmitting information, and issuing tasks, thus creating a fairly spiritual and convenient intelligence network.
Basically, every member of the Ghost Slayer Team will get a crow when they join the Slayer Team, and the headquarters of the Slayer Team relies on the crow to assign tasks to the members of the Slayer Team located in various places to hunt ghosts.
At the same time, the crow will also sort out all kinds of information and send it to the headquarters of the Ghost Slayer Team, that is, the lord of the Ghost Slayer Team, so that he can know the latest events and situations even if he does not leave home.
Rige's existence and his performance on the Infinity Train were sent back to the headquarters of the Demon Slayer by the riddle of Kyojuro in Purgatory, and sent to the lord.
Then, the crow brought instructions from the lord to Purgatory Kyojuro, saying that he wanted to see Rige in person.
"How? Stepcountry boy? Come with me to my lord!
Purgatory Kyojuro strongly demanded, and before he could even wait for Li Ge to respond, he grabbed his shoulders and looked like he wouldn't let him escape.
"Got it, just see it, don't get so close to me.
Li Ge pushed away the face of Kyojuro in Purgatory who had come to him and agreed to the matter.
He actually wanted to meet the leader of the Demon Slayer team.
There was no other reason than just to ask him for a favor.
After knowing that the destination of this dimensional shuttle was the Demon Slayer World, Li Ge had an idea in his mind,
So his purpose in the first place was to collect the breathing methods of this world.
And since it is to collect the breathing method, it is necessary to contact the ghost killing team.
Rige would come directly to this place after learning about the Infinity Train, because he knew that the flame pillar of Purgatory Kyojuro would appear here, and that the Demon Slayer would appear here.
As for the two ghosts, Nest and Nightmare, Li Ge only became a little interested in them with the idea of knowing the strength of the Twelve Ghost Moons and the general level of the ghosts in this world, but he didn't come specifically for them.
Now, Purgatory Kyojuro has put this opportunity in front of Li Ge, and Li Ge naturally has no reason to refuse.
With the help of the leader of the Demon Slayer Team, collecting breathing is nothing more than an easy thing to do.
"Good!" Purgatory Xingjulang was immediately happy, patted Li Ge's shoulder and said, "Without further ado, let's go immediately!"
Purgatory Kyojuro's words made the protagonist trio hurriedly come up.
In other words, the person who wants to get together is Tanjiro.
"Mr. Purgatory, can I go back with you?"
Tanjiro made this request.
"Huh? Is there anything wrong with you? Stove Gate Boy!" Purgatory Xing Shoulang was stunned for a moment, and said: "If there is nothing important, don't go to the lord casually, the lord doesn't say that you can see it when you see it!"
This is also to hide the location of the leader of the Demon Slayer Team and protect the leader of the Demon Slayer Team and the security of the headquarters.
"I just have something I want to ask you two." Tanjiro said, "Even if you don't go to the lord's mansion, it doesn't matter."
As he spoke, Tanjiro glanced at Rige, apparently concerned about the relationship between Kagura, the god of fire, and Rige's previous use of the breath of the sun.
"Hmmm! If that's the case, that's fine!" Purgatory Xingjurou knew what was going on, and said very happily: "In that case, why don't you come to my house first, and let me entertain you!"
"Thank you!" Tanjiro laughed with relief.
Zenitsu and Inosuke don't seem to have any opinions.
"Hey! Big eyes! Do you have a locomotive there? Lend me a fist exercise!"
Inosuke makes an unreasonable request to Kyojuro in Purgatory.
"Exercise your fists? Very nice idea!" Purgatory Xingjurou nodded matter-of-factly: "But I didn't!"
Shanyi's motivation is even stronger.
"If you go to Yanzhu, you don't have to go out on a mission for the time being, if you don't go out on a mission, you don't need to hunt ghosts, you don't need to hunt ghosts, you won't be in danger, then I won't die!
After Shanyi finished saying the words without even adding a single punctuation mark with an angry momentum, he took a victory posture to himself.
"Well said! Teenager!" Purgatory Kyojuro gave Shanyi a thumbs up and said appreciatively: "But no!"
Want to hide from my house and evade missions?
I'm afraid you don't know how the column of Yanzhu is written!
Purgatory Kyojuro has already figured out what kind of task he wants to arrange for Shanyi.
In this way, Rige, Purgatory Kyojuro, Kamado Tanjiro, my wife Zenyi, and Izuhira Inosuke and a group of five people set out on their way home.
The Ghost Slayer remained on the scene and cleaned up the mess.
No one discovered that in the corner of this endgame, a corpse that had lost its head was not destroyed on the spot because it was beheaded by the Nichiren knife.
The headless corpse lying there silently, as if it had lost all its life, suddenly moved its fingers. By the time the Ghost Slayer came here, there was nothing left.
....
At the same time, inside a luxurious mansion, there was a figure that exuded a dark and dangerous aura here
"Jiguo Yuanyi?"
The owner of the figure stood in front of a bookshelf, seemingly holding a book reading, but the book was suddenly torn in half and crushed to pieces by an unknown force.
The man did not realize this, and the hand holding the fragment of the book was trembling.
He muttered first, and then the veins on his forehead burst out.
"Absolutely impossible!"
The name "Jiguo Yuan One---- awakens a certain unbearable past hidden in his heart,
It made him feel that this body, which had survived for thousands of years, was aching faintly, as if some wound was attacking.
At the same time, some fear in my heart was also awakened.
"There's no way he's still alive." The owner of the figure whispered, "He's dead, it's unmistakable."
Otherwise, he wouldn't be here.
If Ji Guoyuan Yi was still alive, he would not have been able to come out again no matter what.
It is precisely because it is confirmed that Jiguo Yuanyi is dead that he will appear again and appear in this world.
Now, hundreds of years have passed, and the guy who is a real monster compared to himself should have died of old age a long time ago.
"Someone impersonating him?"
The figure in the study muttered to himself.
"But the sword skill that can decapitate the Zodiac with one sword is indeed the breath of the sun.
With such sword skills and such strength, it is like a real successor to the country, terrifying and powerful.
"No, I have to confirm who that human is before I can rest assured."
The ghost, who had made such a decision, pressed his hand next to his temple and called two names.
"Bantengu, Jade Pot, you two come to my side quickly."
The shouting ended, and after a few seconds, two voices rang out in his heart.
"Yes, Lord Wumi."
