Chapter 4
The two wrestle.
Tanjiro also knew that he didn't have much time, and he couldn't match the strength of the cannibal in front of him. He just saw it roaring
"I'm going to save Midouzi, get out of my way!"
As he spoke, he raised his head.
The evil ghost grinned and laughed in his heart.
It's just a human being.
It's ridiculous that you want to use a headbutt on me. The moment you have a headache and are distracted, I can easily do it. I will kill you!
But the reality is completely different from what the cannibal thought.
Tanjiro hit the cannibal on the head with a dull sound without hesitation.
The human ghost's eyes suddenly bulged and its mouth opened wide, its face was full of pain and disbelief, and its whole body was knocked unconscious.
Even its hair fell down weakly, but it still couldn't stop it from asking angrily.
How could you be so hard-headed? Lin
Fan was a little nervous when he saw this, but he couldn't let go of this opportunity and immediately reminded him.
"Tanjiro, cut off its head now!"
After hearing this, Tanjiro hesitated for a moment but then resolutely swung his sword. When the blade cut across the neck of the ogre, the ogre's head and body were separated before he could come to his senses. His head fell directly to the ground and rolled several times. His headless body also fell straight to the ground.
When the ogre's consciousness disappeared, he looked at Tanjiro with a look full of resentment!
【Ding! Detect the negative emotions of the cannibal before his death and gain 100 emotional points!
The first hunt of a man-eating ghost has been detected. In order to better integrate into the world, the system has loaded the host with the corresponding function of the Nichirin Knife! 】
Lin Fan was stunned for a moment when he heard the system prompt,"How much more? One hundred emotion points! And you also gave me the ability to load the Sun Blade?"
This benefit gave Lin Fan a new understanding of his system. In my opinion, this system can handle it, and it really gives you something!
And through the emotional value obtained this time, Lin Fan also understood one thing, that is, the evil ghost's negative emotions will reach its maximum at the moment of death.
But this is a one-time harvest. Although it does not have as much emotional value as continuous squeezing, it is more efficient!
…… outside world.
After experiencing this battle, Tanjiro panted violently, and the hand holding the sword was shaking slightly.
The body of the cannibal ghost seemed to have been affected by the properties of the Sun Blade that Lin Fan had loaded into it, and it began to quickly turn into embers in the wind.
"Don’t ghosts even leave their bodies behind after they die?"
Tanjiro glanced at him in surprise, and then immediately rushed towards the Buddhist hall, trying to stop Midouzi from eating people.
But as soon as he took a step, he found that he was standing at the door of the Buddhist hall, looking at the corpse, drooling.
Tanjiro breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.
He was really afraid of Midouzi eating people. Recalling what Adumaru said, if One day, Midouzi eats people.
Perhaps the only thing he can do is kill it with his own hands and then commit seppuku to atone for his sin...
Tanjiro relaxed his mind and wanted to put the sword back into its sheath, but as soon as he raised his arm, he suddenly stretched out his arms. He put a big hand on his shoulder and heard a dull old voice.
"Can you show me your knife?"
Hearing this, Tanjiro shed a drop of cold sweat on his forehead and turned around quickly, only to see an old man wearing a hooded Tengu mask appearing behind him.
This man walked without making a sound!
But when faced with the old man's request, Tanjiro immediately wanted to Asked Lin Fan.
But the old man easily took the knife away with one hand, felt it carefully in his hand, and then immediately handed the knife back to Tanjiro and asked. road
"Where did you get this knife?"
Tanjiro said without thinking,"This knife is passed down in my family."
The old man didn't say anything more after hearing this, but turned and walked towards the direction of the Buddhist temple.
Seeing this, Tanjiro put the knife back into the sheath.
It was almost dawn at this moment, and Nezuko on the side instinctively felt fear and disgust. She shrank her body and went back into the bamboo basket to avoid the rising sun.
When Tanjiro came to his senses, the sunset had risen, and the old man had carried the broken body from the Buddhist temple to the outside to bury it.
Seeing this, Tanjiro hurried to help
"let me help you."
The two of them buried these people in the courtyard of the Buddhist hall.
With their backs to the rising sun, the old man finally asked again.
"I’m Sakonji Nintaki, and you’re the one introduced by Giyu Tomioka, right?"
It was only then that Tanjiro realized that this old man was the person Tomioka Giyuu asked him to visit that day!
"Yes, I am Kamado Tanjiro!"
As he spoke, he pointed to the bamboo basket he was carrying and introduced.
"This is my sister Midouzi."
But Nintaki Sakonji acted as if he hadn't heard anything, and directly asked a sharp question,"Tanjiro, what will you do when your sister eats people?"
Perhaps it was mentioned by Lin Fan.
Tanjiro had already been mentally prepared and answered resolutely without any confusion.
"I would kill her and then commit seppuku, but I would never let that happen!"
After receiving this answer,
Lin Takiza couldn't help but nodded slightly and expressed satisfaction.
"It's good that you have this awareness. Next, I will test whether you are suitable to become a ghost-slaying swordsman. Take your sister on your back and follow me."
The two of them ran towards Saagiri Mountain one after another until the sun set.
They stopped in front of a wooden house. At this time, Tanjiro was already panting from exhaustion and collapsed on the ground..
He suppressed his violently heaving chest and asked with difficulty.
"So I pass the test, right?"
"The test is just about to start now. After settling your sister, follow me up the mountain."
Lin Longzuo opened the door for the last time, took off the hood on his head and entered the wooden house first.
At this time, Tanjiro was completely stunned.
As for Lin Fan, he was just watching the show and harvesting the emotional value.
It was just a short time. In such a day, Tanjiro himself has provided no less than 100 emotional points, and together with Yadouzi and Ningtaki Sakonji, the harvest of this day has reached nearly 150 emotional points! If this rate continues, unlocking the ability is not a dream!!
After settling in Midouzi, the two went up the mountain together. The fog was everywhere in Saagiri Mountain, and it was already night and it was difficult to see.
However, when the two reached the halfway point of the mountain, Lintaki was leading the way. Zuojiro stopped, turned around and said
"Now I'm going back to my home at the foot of the mountain alone.……"After saying that, the figure merged into the heavy fog and disappeared completely.
Hearing this, Tanjiro also looked around and planned to use his sensitive nose to follow the scent of Nedaki Sakonji back.
Just a few sniffs of my nose confirmed the direction.
"Here!"
As soon as he took two steps, Lin Fan's reminder sounded in his mind.
"Be careful, there's a trap here!"
Just after reminding him, Tanjiro stepped on the rope.
The next moment, several stones came quickly and hit him directly in the face. Unprepared, he took a few steps back and fell into the deep hole that had been dug in advance.
The fall made him dizzy.
