Chapter 19
After getting closer.
It looks like an ordinary mansion, nothing out of the ordinary.
But when Tanjiro smelled the smell, he couldn't help but wonder,"There is the smell of blood in it, but this is the first time I smell it."
The feeling of blood is very special.
Tanjiro couldn't understand, so he simply asked,"Arjuramaru, do you think there is a ghost in this mansion?"
Lin Fan, who sensed the situation inside the mansion with his sword, did not hesitate to reply after hearing this.
"There is a ghost in this mansion, and it should be much stronger than the female ghost last night."
"Thanks, I'll be careful."
Tanjiro's expression also became serious.
Needless to say how difficult the female ghost was last night, there was actually a stronger one hidden here, and he couldn't help but be prepared for it.
Zenitsu next to him pricked up his ears He came and asked,"Tanjiro, did you hear anything?"
The two were talking.
Tanjiro turned around and saw two trembling children with frightened faces hidden in the grass not far away.
"Child? Zenitsu also looked over.
As for Tanjiro beside him, he walked up directly and asked friendly,"What are you two doing in a place like this?""
The two children looked over with frightened eyes, and their bodies could not stop shaking.
Seeing the state of the two children, Tanjiro could only step forward to comfort them.
In this way, the two children calmed down their fear.
The older one was slightly older. The little boy spoke and said
"We came here to save my brother. He was taken away by a monster. However, my brother was injured and left blood stains. The two of us followed the blood stains to get here...
This must be the monster's home.……"
Hearing this, Tanjiro continued to comfort him.
"Don't worry, I will definitely rescue your brother!"
"Really?"
The boy asked tentatively.
But before Tanjiro could respond, Zenitsu behind him suddenly said with an ugly expression
"Tanjiro, have you ever heard a very annoying sound, like...a drum?……"
The words just fell.
The sound of the drums became clearer and denser.
Several people turned to look.
Then I saw a figure pop up from the window on the second floor and fall straight to the ground, splattering blood all over the ground.
Tanjiro didn't have time to think too much, he hurriedly ran forward, picked up the young man, and checked
"Cheer up, it'll be okay!"
As he said that, he saw the wound on the young man's body, which was almost deep enough to see the bones, and the amount of bleeding was huge.
Seeing this, Tanjiro immediately asked in his heart
"Can ajuramaru cure him? Hearing this
, Lin Fan's calm and bewitching voice also sounded,"Yes, yes, I have no objection, but do you really want me to save him?"
You must know that my power is not endless. If I consume a lot of power to save him, you may not be able to defeat the ghost inside, and I will not be able to help you then.……"
Simply analyze the pros and cons.
And at this moment, the young man lying in his arms spit out a mouthful of blood, and his whole body became more and more depressed, as if he would die at any time.
He could only hear his eyes looking at the sky aimlessly, making a weak voice from his mouth, and murmuring intermittently.
"I finally managed to escape...but I never expected...I would still...die.……"
Hearing this, Tanjiro immediately responded without any hesitation,"I'm fine, Ajuramaru, please save this person first!"
"Who made you the sword master? As you wish."
After teasing, Lin Fan pretended to be helpless and replied, releasing the black mist of ghost power to form a thread and wrapping it around the young man's body.
With the influx of a large amount of ghost power, the young man's body began to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye. , the bleeding stopped and the wound healed.
In just a moment, the young man who was on the verge of death miraculously survived, as if he had never been injured. Only the blood-stained kimono on his body could prove how badly he had been injured!
The young man stood up quickly, looked at his intact body in disbelief, and couldn't help but kneel down, tears welling up in his eyes.
"Thank you...Thank you so much……"
Tanjiro saw this and hurried forward to help him up, smiling warmly,"Don't thank me, there is someone else who saved you, you should thank it."
This was a little confusing.
The man didn't think much about it.
On the side.
God knows how much shock this scene caused to Zenitsu, it simply broke his original worldview!
Eyes wide open, mouth wide open.
He had thousands of words to ask Tanjiro.
Tanjiro stood up and first asked the two children
"Is he your brother?"
After receiving a negative reply, he sincerely requested the young man in front of him.
"Could you please take care of these two children?"As he spoke, he pointed his finger at the two children on the side.
Upon seeing this, the young man quickly patted his chest and promised
"Don't worry, I will definitely take good care of these two children!"After saying that, he stood up and walked towards the two shivering children.
After doing all this,
Tanjiro also turned his head and said to Zenitsu behind him,"Okay, Zenitsu, let's go, there are still people waiting inside. Let's go rescue!"
This time, Zenitsu, who was always afraid, hurriedly followed Tanjiro, and the two walked towards the mansion together.
"Tanjiro, what happened just now?"
Faced with Zenitsu's doubts, Tanjiro had no intention of hiding it,"That's the sword in my hand, the power of Adjuramaru, it can heal injuries."
"Eh...what?! Is this knife a ghost in disguise? But this is under the sun……"
Zenitsu was paralyzed. This was even more difficult to accept than letting him believe that Tanjiro had special powers.
But then he thought about it and he became excited again
"Then if I'm with you from now on, I won't die!"
"If he dies, it seems that Ajuramaru can't be saved."Tanjiro corrected him.
"That's fine too!"
While the two were talking, they pushed open the door and walked into the mansion.
What came into view was a dim corridor.
Walking in it.
Tanjiro's sense of smell was also affected, and he could only ask in his heart,"Ajuramaru, can you sense the location of that ghost?"
"What do you think?"
Hearing this, Lin Fan first asked back and then continued,"Go straight now and then turn left."
"OK"
Tanjiro walked in front according to the instructions, while Zenitsu who followed behind couldn't help showing a look of fear.
"Tanjiro, this place is too scary. Will a ghost suddenly appear later? Then stick its tongue out through my ears and eat all my brains?……"
