["Say! What have you done! To go to that kind of place where only depraved adults go! Can they have me and my sister? ”

"Do you want to hear the truth or lie?"

"What do you say?"

"To be honest, although they are not as good as Sister Chana, they are much gentler than you, and their bodies are better than yours."

"Damn it! Die! Dirty bastard! ”

Inside the carriage, there was a lot of commotion.

"Light! Tap! Wrong! I actually just glanced twice when I was on a mission! ”

"Don't! Don't draw your sword! I admit that I accidentally touched it, but I just have the heart and the guts, and I don't have the strength! ”

"Do you still dare to have that heart and that guts? Aren't you afraid that I will tell Aunt Shi Tou! Do you dare to touch those old women who are more than ten years older than you? I'm telling you, don't go to that kind of place again, or no girl will want you in the future! ”

"I'm only in my twenties, and I'm in my prime," you couldn't help muttering, this time even Butterfly Chanae got her hands on it, and you grinned in pain. 】

[After years of getting along, you already have your own experience on how to dissipate some of these two girls' emotions.

Half-truths and half-truths are a far-flung joke, and enough is enough. 】

[It's not far away from the chestnut blossoms falling Chanel, you don't know how to solve it. 】

[Chestnut Blossom fell Chanel stupidly, kept looking at the back of the carriage, and the godless eyes became even stiffer.

Also, for the three of you, at best, Dafa's kindness was accidentally shattered.

You've seen too many lives die, and you've put an end to many that were once life.

There may still be varying degrees of regret and heartache, but there will be no despair.

But for this girl, it's different!

She lost her brother!

It's like waking up every morning and accidentally learning that Butterfly Shinobu or Butterfly Chanae suddenly didn't leave any news and disappeared completely.

It's like a pillar that didn't have much in my heart that was pulled out again.

So the fragile heart supported on the balance beam fell hard into the bottom of the cold well, which may not have been completely broken, but it must have fallen out of dazzling blood.

If you still feel it, it must be very painful and painful! 】

["Don't worry, your brother will be fine. Eventually, you decided to give it a try, and limped to the back of the carriage with the tooth marks on your shoulders and the pain in your waist.

"As the old saying goes, fools are blessed with fools."

You gently touched Chanel's little head, which was a little dry, probably due to perennial malnutrition.

In the midst of pity, your voice is softer,

"Chanel, I don't know how you feel right now, maybe you're numb to the point where you don't feel anything, or maybe it's cold, it's painful and you want to cry."

"But you have to live well, only then will you have a chance to see your brother again, won't you?"

"Before you do it again, just wait in the Ghost Slayer Team."

"Sooner or later, you'll see him again."

Chanel didn't move, and just as you were laughing and trying to withdraw your hand, she pulled out a hand and held it down. 】

[The girl's flicked coin, rolling back in the twilight sunset, symbolizing the front that can speak, is reflected in her eyes.]

"You"

"You can do mine. Brother? "Intermittent murmuring, I don't know if it has the meaning of a request.

You are a little stunned and can't help asking, "Why?" ”

The coin flashed again, accompanied by a whisper that I don't know if it was choked up,

"Hands"

Chanel murmured softly.

The man who gave birth to her would not touch her head like this, but would only vent his unsatisfactory life on her with his fists.

The woman who gave birth to her will not stop it, but will just watch quietly from the side.

Only my brother would touch her head like this, not disgusted that she was dirty, not disgusted with her stinky, just laughing so stupidly, and kept saying, "It's okay, my brother is here, my brother is here"

That's the only warmth left of Chanel, and I don't want to lose it anymore.

"Your hand is as warm as my brother's."

The breeze blows your stunned eyes, and the dusk renders a little confused and slightly open mouth.

Still, you rubbed that little head hard,

"Good!"

"From today onwards, I am your brother!" 】

[Chestnut Blossom fell asleep, shrunk into a small ball, and clutched your hand. 】

"Hmm"

Lu Mingfei in the dark bedroom rubbed his chin,

"I have a younger sister to take care of, and I hope I can be worthy of the title of brother."

At the very least, let her slowly become a normal girl and have her own happiness.

Although he didn't have any successful experience as an elder brother, after all, he and Lu Mingze weren't very close before.

But it doesn't matter, he's not alone!

Chanahui, Shinobi, and Mom and Dad are all his strong supporters!

If you can't do it alone, the whole family will melt the ice in this doll girl's heart sooner or later!

"But what the hell is that little madman?"

Lu Ming shook his head in confusion and returned his gaze to the simulator.

[13 years old: In the rest of the year, there is nothing special to pay attention to, it is still your daily routine with the dead child to catch ghosts and kill ghosts.

So far, you have completed the task of catching 200 ghosts, and even the number of ghosts has reached half of 100, and the title of pillar is very close to you.

Just wait for time, or luck!

Either way, you're bound to get the title of pillar in the near future. 】

[There is no special change at the age of 13, and it is still a large group of ghost slayer team together.

Slightly different, fill in a few new figures.

The chestnut blossoms that were regarded as their own by the Butterfly couple and the Shitou couple were Chanel, and the maternity house that had just been able to climb was Terushiki and the sound pillar. 】

[New Year, winter snow, fireworks, birthdays, the best gift is for everyone! ]

Your grandfather looked at the New Year, and looked at the half-carved wood outside the courtyard,

"Well, I've got to add two more." 】

[After the New Year, the after-hours battle has become your annual habit.]

The collision of five-colored sword lights is vast, far more than last year!

The progress of the Rabbit and the others can be said to have advanced by leaps and bounds, and in the battle of blood and death, their potential has been fully stimulated.

You have never felt the threat of death, and the progress of your strength can only be said to be steady, but you can still resist the combined attack of several of them, worthy of the name of genius. 】

[The adults were amazed, and said that most of you already have the strength to kill the lower string level ghosts.

In other words, as long as the conditions for promotion are met, you will all have the supreme name of the Demon Slayer.

And you, who often have more than one enemy, naturally don't need to say much.

They really see from you the hope that in four or five years they will be able to single-handedly kill the wind! 】

[But what makes you depressed is that you have to catch enough of the 200 ghosts for assessment.] The number of ghosts you slay is far less than that of a few rabbits.

In other words, if you don't meet the lower string, the point in time you get the title of column is likely to be later than those bastards who are gloating with a smile!

So you often sigh and secretly say, is it possible that in this battle to become a pillar, you are going to become the existence at the bottom? 】

[Everything is developing in a good direction, but you don't know that the crisis of blessing and misfortune has come! 】

[If you have to choose a beginning for that crisis, it may be the light cough of Aunt Xihuo and the slightly ugly faces of the butterfly couple under the New Year's fireworks.

Perhaps add to the whispers of the butterfly sisters, who have not paid attention to a good birthday gift for several years in a row. 】

Lu Mingfei's expression froze, and he looked down uneasily.

The moonlight mixed with the night shone on the color of his eyes.

Something is going to happen!

Something is definitely going to happen!

[14 years old, 1 month:

Brother Yaoya asked you to meet, and as soon as you arrived at his mansion, you heard the conversation inside the screen - it was the highest meeting that was called the Council of Pillars, and people who were not at the level of the Pillars could not attend, but Brother Yaoya always let you eavesdrop on it in this way.

Yanzhu Sorrowful Mingyu, Otojo Yu Marrow Tianyuan, Yanzhu Purgatory Maki Juro, and Hanazhu Butterfly Kanae are talking to him about the Ghost Slayer.

Recently, the haunting of ghosts in various places has suddenly become rampant, and there are even faint signs of string-level ghost haunting, killing many members of the ghost killing team who went to exterminate!

The only four-pillar level swordsmen were exhausted, and it was difficult for them to provide effective support.

Often they have just arrived, and the evil spirits have fled

The disadvantage of the lack of high-end combat power of the ghost killing team is vividly reflected at this moment.

To this, their opinion is "Wait! "And let the swordsmen who already have the ability of a pillar but have no name of a pillar participate in it! 】

[The meeting is gone, and you bump into Uncle Purgatory, who is doing well.

Recently, he is the happiest person, his own son is marching towards the position of the Yanzhu, symbolizing that he is not far from retirement.

In addition, his long-standing dream of having two sons and a daughter is likely to come true.

Yes, one of the good news for this year's Ghost Slayer Team is: a new little life has appeared in Aunt Xihuo's womb! 】

[After you greet the remaining pillars, you step through the door and wait for what Brother Yaoya has to say.

First, the construction of the Ghost Slayer Medical Facility has been completely completed, and according to the intention of Mr. and Mrs. Shi Tou and Mr. and Mrs. Butterfly, they suggested that their children should be named.

You and the butterfly Chanae look at each other, and your mind invariably thinks of the colorful butterflies flying from time to time near the medical hut, clearly named "Butterfly"!

The word butterfly house was mentioned by chance when you were chatting with the butterfly sisters.

As for what else is going on in your heart, that's up to you. 】

[The second thing, Brother Yaoya only asked you alone,

That's "Ming Fei, have you thought about answering?" ”

Yes, the position of the bar is getting closer, the answer that was delayed a few years ago, waiting for you to give.

Have you figured out the answer?

Do you want to be the benchmark for all the members of the Demon Slayer Team?

Do you want to be the leader of all?

Do you want to take on the task of ending everything?

You are silent and unable to answer.

As for whether you can take over the leadership position, you can pat your chest and say yes!

But whether it can really bear the burden behind it may only be revealed at the moment when it really becomes a pillar. 】

[Brother Yaoya, who is getting weaker and weaker, has not persecuted you, but he is just speaking lightly, not in a hurry.

But you have to be anxious, because that day is getting closer and closer! 】

[February:

Your heart is entangled, you are thinking about eating, you are thinking about walking, and even between waking up and dreaming, you are still thinking!

You even wander in the task of slaying ghosts, until the moment when the claws are on the verge of your throat and the butterflies are not far away crying in fear, you suddenly come back to your senses and draw your sword to slash the blood.

Afterwards, Butterfly Shinobu turned pale and pointed at your nose and scolded!

Scratch! Wring! Bite! Kick! She left all the ruthlessness she could think of in you, except for drawing a knife!

The girl finally crashes into your arms, trembling and whimpering, "Stupid! Bastard! What were you doing? ”

"Almost, almost, I'll never see you again!"

And all you can do is hold her tightly and keep apologizing. 】

[This incident also makes you feel afraid!

No matter how sharp the blade in your hand is, if the devil's claw cuts through your throat, it will kill you!

You can die on the battlefield, but the reason why you die must not be because of that heart! 】

[Suddenly realizing that you were stuck in a bottleneck in your heart, you stopped the task and decided to retake the path from childhood to adulthood.

Because you have read that sentence in an ancient book,

"When you feel confused or have a big choice, you may be able to try to go through your life from childhood to adulthood." 】

[Life is very long, as long as more than ten years, life is very short, so short that when you think about it, there are only a few places. 】

[The old and dusty temple, which is said to be the place where you were saved by Uncle Purgatory when you were a child, maybe at that moment, you took over the indissoluble bond with the ghost killing team. 】

[The town surrounded by mountains, although things are not people, but it is still full of medicinal fragrance and is still peaceful. You have lived here with your parents who love you very much, and you have met your grandfather, and you are familiar with every inch of land here, because it is full of footprints of your running and hard work and a different childhood. 】

[Passing through the mountains, I pushed away the two adjacent families that had been away for a long time - the bright spring cherry blossom trees, and the wind of the deciduous courtyard promenade.

You quietly sweep the courtyard, spend a silent day cleaning the perennial hometown clean, the floor corridor, the vase and the purple katana, after many years, once again unstained dust.

At sunset, you make a cup of tea with the tea set in your memory, hold the teacup that looks a little small when you pick it up now, and look at the hanging illustrations, you seem to see the picture in your memory - the grass grows and the warbler flies, and the two girls who live close to your heart like laughter and unreasonableness do not know when. 】

[In an ethereal spring rain, you return to the town of the bloody wedding, on the bluestone on the shore, there is no burning blade, only a little crack remains, filled with crystal flowing rootless water.

You observe a new wedding, and the momentum is not so great, but the bride and groom and their families are laughing in tears. 】

[Re-entering the Narrow Foggy Mountain, you didn't disturb the Scales Teacher and the resting Rabbit, Yiyong and Rabbit, between the waterfall and the pool, you recalled the wooden bowl that was always one less, unlimited meals, and the fox noodles buried on the top of the mountain. 】

[Returning to the purgatory house, the summer fireworks are still vivid, you didn't knock on the door, listening to the ballad of Aunt Burning inside, presumably the child of Chijuro is no longer the child who sticks to his mother, after all, he is about to become a brother. 】

[Coming to the Autumn Wind Valley again, the Immortal River and Kuang are not there, only the hut that stands in the wind and sand. Listening to the wind, you suddenly realize that unpleasant first sight, and now you think about it is not so unpleasant. 】

[Roaming in the peach mountains, you saw in the trees that you ran away from my chase Teacher Kuwajima and my wife Shanyi, the junior brother who always cries and chirps has grown stronger, and he won't cry anymore, but I don't know if he will be bullied by Miaoyue. 】

[Sitting by the Red Pavilion again, there is no snow and no ice, you gently stroke the chessboard, without saying a word. 】

[On this journey, you didn't bring anyone with you, only yourself.

In this memory, you did not bother anyone but yourself. 】

[The last stop, you return to your new home.

People come and go, the swordsmen who have grown up through the wind and frost greet you cordially, chat a few words about the memories of slaughtering mountains with you, their hearts are still surging, they chuckle, and say that they are looking forward to the day when you become a pillar and call you a pillar to slaughter the pillar.

Mom and Dad, Mr. and Mrs. Butterfly, and Miss Tsutako are busy.

Your grandfather sat in a rocking chair, his chaotic eyes twinkling, and his large wood carving, which had been in preparation for many years, had been a little slow lately.

He's getting older, and he's been having some trouble with his memory lately.

I still recognize you, but I have been thinking about it for a long time, and I have a habit of liking Mosuo's jade pendant and wood carving, and constantly muttering about the past.

Chestnut Blossom Chanel stood quietly under the treetops, looking gently at the butterflies in her hands.

She is by your grandpa's side and is the best wordless listener. 】

[After wandering for a month, you suddenly discover,

Life is very long, to spring, summer, autumn and winter, many, many times, many, many years.

But life is also very short, so short that if you think about it, there are actually only so many people. 】

[Finally you find out,

The time you've had so far, the family you've cared about the most, all your friends, the girl you've feared for the future, the adoring you, the dependence on you.

Everything you have in life is here in the end—a place called the Ghost Slayer!

There may still be no answer, but there are clearer reasons to keep going.

You must protect everyone, you have found the meaning of life, or when you wipe away the dust of the old house, you will meet your original intention again! 】

[Ding!

Coins fluttering in the sunset, disturbing the butterflies in the air, chestnut blossoms fell Chanel looked at the front, her eyes flickered slightly, and waved at you,

"Brother Mingfei, welcome home."

"Well, I'm back."

The doll-like girl has found her new home, and so have you.

Therefore, in a long life, there is always a way back. 】

[March:

The dead child feels like he can feel your heart, dancing with joy in the air.

After a month of not seeing each other, you have once again embarked on the road of slaying ghosts.

A clear heart, a clear cherished thing, make your pace more brisk.

Your sword-wielding hand is more stable!

The evil spirit dissipates, and you walk towards the next stop of your life, the pillar, without hurrying or slowing. 】

[April: When you return to the butterfly house, you unexpectedly heard the good news that followed.

Aunt Xihuo is pregnant for April, and her pulse is gradually stabilizing, and she is undoubtedly a lovely girl.

Presumably, when the expeditionary Uncle Purgatory heard the news, he would have trembled his hands, and then cut off the head of the evil ghost on the other side in an instant.

Not only that, but today is a day of double happiness.

Because your mother, too, has a faint vein of joy.

Yes, perhaps, you have an extra brother or sister!

You will grow up with him or her and witness the little things in his or her life, and it will definitely be a different experience. 】

[You are immersed in joy, but the violent coughing sound in the house and the panicked concern of the butterfly couple following behind shatter the joy and reveal worry! 】

[The sour squeak, you saw it when you pushed the door open in a panic, and saw bright red blood, which was quietly dripping from the corner of Aunt Xihuo's mouth. 】

["Ahhh

"Xiao Mingfei, I want to help my aunt keep it secret." 】

[You unfold the transparent world and observe up and down, only to find that there is something wrong with Aunt Xihuo's body! ]

Come to think of it, it seems to have been a sign of this since a few years ago!

The world is impermanent!

This strict and gentle mother, this smiling and squinting wife, this girl who can still jump under the fireworks, her body has long been full of holes, and she can not be cured by medicine.

She has relied on the recuperation and medical treatment of the butterfly couple to persist until now, and it is no wonder that in the past New Year, she was always kicked out of the kitchen by some adults who knew about it!

The girl hid it very well, and now she is finally about to lose it, and she is secretly preparing to fulfill the wish of the boy she liked since she was a child, "Two reliable sons, a lovely daughter." ”】

[Of course you have to hide it, like all those who know, for the last wish of the dying person, it seems that all you can do is respect.

It's just that every time I meet the radiant Uncle Purgatory and Purgatory Xingjulang after that, I can't help but tremble for a while! 】

[May:

Slay ghosts! Slay ghosts! Slay ghosts!

You rarely go back to the Ghost Slayer Team again, just like then you don't have to see Aunt Fire, you won't see the Purgatory family, and naturally you don't have to experience the powerlessness that no matter how strong you are, you can't do something! 】

[June:

You're going to have to go back a few times, and that's to reassure you, and many, many people who are worried about your parents and grandfather who have some dementia.

This time, you unexpectedly meet the butterfly sisters who will also come, accompany the sober grandfather, and pull Chanel to the side to laugh.

They didn't know about Aunt Xihuo, and they were immersed in their emotions.

You leaned over to hear what they were saying, but they pushed you away, looking mysterious.]

[July, August:

Aunt Flame's belly is getting bigger and bigger, but her face is getting paler and paler, but Uncle Purgatory is like a fool and doesn't notice anything at all.

In other words, Aunt Xihuo is really hiding it too well. 】

[September: All the truths finally broke out on that day!] Erupt in front of everyone! 】

13 days a day.

Three-in-one.
