Chapter 13: The Blade of Column Extermination (8)
The three of them were tired and hoe, chopped and stomped all night until the sun was about to come out. Li Fan shouted loudly: "Tanjiro! Hurry! Let Nezuko hide first! The sun is about to come out!"
Tanjiro and Nezuko were both shocked.
Don't dare to neglect it either.
Nezuko also felt the sense of crisis coming. Under Tanjiro's anxious urging, she quickly hid.
Tanjiro rushed back to his headless body that had begun to repair and continued to chop it to pieces.
Very soon.
The sun rises slowly in the morning.
The sunlight slowly shone on them and the cannibals who were smashed to pieces.
The man-cannibal ghost didn't even have the chance to roar, so he was completely burned to ashes by the sun.
Li Fan and Tanjiro, who were already exhausted, immediately spread their clothes into a large font and kept breathing heavily on the ground.
At this moment, a voice suddenly came into their ears: "You seem to have a certain understanding of human-cannibal ghosts?"
The two of them were so scared that they quickly got up and stared at each other.
And the owner of this voice was exactly the target they needed to find on this trip, Raki Taki Zuoji wearing a Tengou mask!
Before this, Rakitaki Sukhinji had already received a letter from Tomooka Yoshioka.
The content of the letter is as follows:
[Hissergeant Lin Taki Zuo Kinji, I asked a young man who was motivated to become a ghost-killing swordsman to come to you. He has the courage to challenge me with his bare hands. His family members were all killed by ghosts, and only his sister survived as if she had turned into ghosts. But I don’t think she would harm humans.
I think those two people are different from others.
That boy seems to have a very good nose like you.
Maybe he will make a breakthrough in the future and inherit your career.
Please, you must train him well.]
In the original work, the content of the letter should end here.
But now there are a few more sentences:
[Also, I'm not sure if there will be one person following them when you see this boy and his sister. If not, please ignore my next paragraph.
If there is...
Then please be sure to separate them.
I don't think it would be a good thing for him to keep this person with the boy.
Please give me if you are unauthorized, please forgive me.
Please take care of yourself and be diligent.
Please.
Not all you want to say, Tomokaoka Yoshiyoshi.]
Lintaki Zuoji looked at Tanjiro: "I am Lintaki Zuoji. You are the one who Yiyong introduced me, right?"
Tanjiro gasped and said, "Yes...yes. My name is Tanjiro Zaomen, my sister Nezuko. And this one is Brother Li Fan."
Lintaki Zuoji glanced at Li Fan, but stopped looking at him. He continued to stare at Tanjiro and said, "Tanjiro, what should you do if your sister cannibalize people?"
Tanjiro was stunned for a moment.
Lin Takizuki slapped over with a slap in the face: "The judgment is too slow. No matter what, you judge too slowly. I think you already know the ability of the ghost and the way to destroy him. But you hesitated halfway.
You couldn't answer the question just now.
why is that?
It's because your determination is too shallow.
If a sister eats a person, there are only two things to do. Kill the sister, and then you commit suicide by septum. If you pass by with a sister who has become a ghost, you must have such awareness.
But you have to keep it in mind, this is something that absolutely cannot happen.
Let your sister take the lives of innocent people, this is absolutely not allowed!
Do you understand what I mean?"
Tanjiro dared not hesitate anymore this time: "Okay!!"
"So... can you tell me now, where did you know about ghosts?"
Tanjiro quickly introduced Li Fan to Lintaki Zuoji: "It's Brother Li Fan! All this knowledge was told by Brother Li Fan!"
The two looked at Li Fan at the same time.
However, Li Fan's face was not very good at this moment.
From the look of the eyes of Lukiki Suoki just now, he vaguely guessed that Tomooka Yoshioto had mentioned him in that letter.
His first impression of Tomooka Yoshiyuki was so bad, it would definitely not be a good thing.
As expected.
The following words of Ludaki Zuoji happened to confirm his thoughts.
"Although you don't know where you learned about the ghost... But for the next road, you are not suitable to continue with this young man..."
"No...no! Why?! Is it true that you are going to convict me of death just by Yoshiyuki Tomooka's one-sided statement?!"
It was finally easy to climb mountains and wade here.
He didn't even give him a chance to defend himself, so he was convicted of death.
No matter how good your temper is, you will definitely be unable to help getting angry.
Li Fan was in this state at this time.
Lin Takizuki frowned slightly. He didn't expect that just a few words could tell the person in front of him that the reason for his rejection was noticed.
Silence for a moment.
Lintaki Zuoji continued: "You are very smart and don't ruthless in dealing with the enemy. If you are not a bad mind, you are indeed more suitable to be a member of the Demon Slayer Team than this young man.
However, I advise you to give up.
No matter what your purpose is, I will not let you get close to this boy again.”
Tanjiro explained anxiously: "No, this is not the case! Senior Sukkiji Suoji..."
Lintaki Zuoji looked at Tanjiro coldly: "Young man, if you still want to learn the skills of killing ghosts from me, from now on, you must listen to me. Otherwise, you will take your sister, wherever you come from and where you go..."
"No! I don't accept it! Why do you say that I'm not right?!"
"Is it a crime to be afraid of death?"
"If everyone really wants to defend their lives like you, that's a gentleman?!"
"I just want to survive and protect myself!! Isn't this possible?!!"
Tanjiro continued to defend Li Fan anxiously: "Yes! Senior Lin Taki Zuo Kinji! Brother Li Fan is not a bad guy! If he hadn't given me the precious monster meat in advance and then stood up to help me solve the enemy at a critical moment, maybe I'm dead now! Brother Li Fan is definitely not a bad guy! Senior Lin Taki Zuo Kinji, please believe me!"
Now, Rakiki Zuoji's brows frowned even tighter.
He heard the keywords "monster meat".
Li Fan stared at Lin Takzuki fiercely.
Tanjiro looked at Rikiki Zuoji anxiously.
Lin Takizuki looked at Li Fan coldly.
Nezuko hid not far away and watched all this.
Sifang was silent for a long time.
I don’t know how long it took, Lin Taki Zuoji finally spoke, looked at Li Fan and said, “Since that’s the case, I will give you a chance. If you can follow my steps and return to Nagiri Mountain, then I will give you a chance to defend yourself. If not… it only means that your determination is not as firm as you said.”
Immediately afterwards, Rikiki Shikiji turned to Tanjiro again: "Young man, next I am testing whether you can become a ghost-killing swordsman. Come with your sister on your back. Remember, you can't help this gentleman in the middle, otherwise, I won't agree with him..."
After saying that, Lin Takizuki walked quickly in a certain direction without looking back.
Seeing this, Tanjiro did not dare to neglect it.
He quickly carried Nezuko on his back and chased after him.
Chapter completed!
