Chapter 217 Tanjiro's Trainer
Yi Ti almost thought she heard wrongly and asked, "What did you say?"
"No...it's nothing." Li Zhong quickly denied... He didn't know why, but when his mind got hot, he suddenly thought of a line from a certain TV series and said it smoothly.
But it was too late to deny it at this time. Yi Ti heard it completely, but because she was a little surprised, she thought she heard it wrong.
But you can tell by Li Zhong's reaction. Li Zhong obviously didn't say anything wrong just now.
Yi Ti frowned and asked: "You have to show your belly when you apologize? Is this the habit of the earth?"
"No...uh...yes, it's just a habit in my family. Just pretend you didn't hear it." Li Zhong was stunned for a moment, but suddenly realized that he could take advantage of regional differences.
After the explanation, she immediately lied without blushing or heartbeat. After saying this, Yiti didn't even think there was any problem.
She paused and said, "I've never heard of such a thing as showing your belly to apologize... I've never heard of it. It feels weird. Isn't it true that beasts usually only show their belly when they surrender?"
"It's okay, it's okay. Teacher, just pretend you didn't hear me. Cultural dregs..." Li Zhong laughed twice and waved his hands repeatedly.
Although Yi Ti felt strange, she didn't say much...
Seeing that Yi Ti did not continue to ask questions, Li Zhong breathed a sigh of relief. The breeder who Li Zhong had been observing also noticed Li Zhong and said, "That unknown friend, can you come out and talk to me?
"
Hearing the sound, Li Zhong walked out from behind the tree, his face returned to calmness, and said: "Tanjiro, are you here, right?"
"Who are you?" The old man suddenly frowned.
Li Zhong reached behind the tree, and then Yi Ti activated the storage magic, took out the sickle, and said: "If Tanjiro has mentioned me, you should know that a year ago, there was a man with a sickle.
Did this guy save Tanjiro?"
The old man suddenly glared: "Are you that Mr. Li Zhong?"
"That's right."
The old man touched the big red nose of his Tengu mask and said, "I see, are you here to see Tanjiro?"
"I went to his house, but there was no one there. Instead, I saw something extraordinary, so I came over to find him," Li Zhong said.
The old man was stunned for a moment: "You said you came here...how did you find this place? You..."
"These are not important. Even if you care, I don't know how to explain it." Li Zhong shrugged simply, "Of course, if you don't want to, there is nothing you can do. I have something to ask Tanjiro. If
If you are willing to live in harmony, that would be the best."
The old man crossed his arms in front of him and chuckled: "Tanjiro told me about you. It is said that you are a master of boxing and taught him a basic set of boxing. Since I am not practicing boxing, it is difficult for me to judge.
But there are two points that I have to doubt you. If you can answer them for me, then I will have no reason to stop you."
"First, the sickle you used is similar in size to the sickle of the murderer who killed the Yamadao family. There should be no one else who uses a sickle except you. Can I think that you killed the Yamadao family?
The murderer of the whole family?”
Li Zhong immediately shook his head: "No, because there is someone else who killed the Shandao family... No, it should be said that there is someone else."
"You mean, the Shandao family was killed by ghosts? Because you got rid of ghosts in the past, you were mistaken for the murderer?"
Li Zhong immediately made a scythe, and the ground trembled slightly, making the old man's pupils shrink. Li Zhong said: "Didn't Tanjiro tell you completely? I already told Tanjiro about this matter a year ago.
The members of the Yamashima family were killed by the fourth quarter of the Twelve Ghost Moon. At that time, in order to break the blood ghost technique in Xia Si, I ran to the next door mansion to grab a lantern, but was mistaken for the murderer. Because they
Because of the obstacles, I couldn’t kill the fourth string at that time..."
As he said that, the box behind Li Zhong shook... The culprit who killed Shandao's family felt a little guilty.
Hearing this, the old man couldn't help but nodded: "No, Tanjiro has told me about this, I just responded. So, the second question is also the question I want to ask the most..."
"I am a little different from normal people. My sense of smell is naturally much stronger than that of ordinary people. I can smell smells that ordinary people cannot smell... And creatures like ghosts will produce a special kind of smell after eating people.
The smell. I could smell it before you appeared, but after you appeared, the smell became extremely strong."
"Excuse me, is the thing in your box a ghost?"
Hearing this, Li Zhong paused. Ling Yuzi clenched his fists nervously, curled up in fear, and swallowed.
But Li Zhong nodded very naturally: "Yes, this is my trophy. Because it is very helpful to my research, I must take her with me."
"Research?" The old man's voice became a little confused, "What kind of research requires you to bring a ghost? Moreover, the strength of this ghost is not ordinary! It is probably a ghost that has eaten hundreds of people.
Evil ghost!"
"My research requires powerful ghosts. Because her blood contains more of Oniitsuji Muzan's blood, that's why I use her as research material!" Li Zhong's tone gradually became a little impatient, "
In my opinion, when people become ghosts, they are just infected with a disease. As long as it is a disease, there is a way to cure it. As long as the research is successful, turning ghosts back into humans is not just a fantasy."
"Do you actually have such an idea?"
Surprisingly, instead of finding Li Zhong's idea ridiculous, the old man felt a little surprised. He couldn't help but clapped his hands and said: "It's a great idea, but...if you promise that you can restrain this powerful ghost?
How do you know it won't sneak up on you while you sleep?"
"Of course I have my own method, because others can't master it, so it's nonsense to say it."
The old man couldn't help pinching his chin and nodded: "Okay, if this involves your personal privacy, then I won't ask more questions. But you shouldn't be a member of the Demon Slayer Squad, right? Why are you so concerned about ghosts?
"
"There is no need to mention this. If the next cooperation goes well, I will also join the Demon Slayer Corps." Li Zhong said, "However, I feel that this is not the place to talk. Can we talk somewhere else?"
The old man was stunned for a moment, then patted his head and smiled: "Yes, yes, I'm sorry...please move to the humble abode to talk about it. Because I live in seclusion, the room is relatively simple, so please forgive me."
