Chapter 48
From the corner of his eye, Roach glanced at the two samurai in the corner who were starting to feast, and took out a few big pancakes from his arms. This was dry food for the journey, and he threw a piece to the black-haired boy and Tanjiro.

"My name is Roach, and he is Tanjiro, what about you?"

The black-haired boy sniffed the flatbread with his nose. On top of the aroma of wheat, there was a faint smell of green onions.

"I... Inosuke."

Roach was more curious about Inosuke, especially the two sheathless katanas on his waist, the edges of which were irregularly jagged, which looked man-made.

Tanjiro was on the side, looking left and right, as if he felt something, he couldn't help poking Roach with his hand and said, "Do you think this hotel is a bit abnormal?"

"En." Roach glanced at him and said, but if you want to talk about the abnormality of the hotel, I am afraid that anyone with a discerning eye can see it.

Especially in this place where there is no village in front and no shops in the back, how could a hotel suddenly appear, and it happened to be heavy rain and mountain fog.

"It's nothing, but maybe it's not a ghost, I don't feel any weird smell from them." Tanjiro said in a low voice.

Roach also felt curious, so he simply stood up and walked in the direction of the two warriors.

The two didn't react until he walked in front of him. One of the older warriors looked up at Roach and said, "Is there something wrong?"

The voice was unusually hoarse and sharp, like fingernails scratching on a wooden board.

Then he might have turned his neck too hard, and Roach could clearly hear the crackling sound of bones, and his whole head fell crookedly onto his shoulders.

The middle-aged samurai belatedly returned his neck to its original position, but accidentally his eyeballs fell out again.

Another young samurai kept eating the food in the bowl, Roach looked closely and almost vomited it out.

I saw that fingers and eyeballs were mixed with the delicious food, and there were some maggots crawling around in it.

"Uh, you guys are busy with your work, I'm fine." Roach shook his head, patted him on the shoulder, turned and returned to his position.

After a while, the two samurai moved, and they fell on the table, looking as if they were incapable of drinking.

And the proprietress opened the curtain, walked over from behind, came to their side, lowered her head and said something in their ears.

The two obediently followed her and walked towards the second floor, but their steps were extremely stiff, as if their joints had been filled with lead.

Their walking postures are also very weird, and as they go upstairs, the sound of bones colliding is constantly being heard from all over the body.

At the corner of the second floor, the proprietress suddenly remembered something, looked down at Luo Qi and the others in the hall, and said with a charming smile.

"The three of you have been waiting for a while, the shop is really dilapidated and needs to be mended."

Roach didn't intend to do anything, but just waited and watched. For some reason, he felt like watching a puppet show when he saw this scene.

Tanjiro lowered his voice and said: "I think something is wrong here, there may be a ghost, Roach, let's take action."

Roach smiled and didn't speak, but Inosuke suddenly stopped eating, raised his head excitedly, grabbed Tanjiro's collar and said.

"What kind of breath do you mean? Is there a ghost? It's just for me to practice my sword."

As soon as this sentence came out, there was a dull footstep behind the curtain, Tanjiro hugged Inosuke, covered his mouth with his hand, and did not let go no matter how hard he struggled.

"Be quiet."

Inosuke tried several times in a row but couldn't break free from his restraint, so he gradually stopped.

Seeing that he had calmed down, Tanjiro let go of his hand immediately, and Inosuke suddenly jumped one after another, grabbing the double knives at his waist with both hands, but the grab was empty.

Roach looked at Inosuke with a half-smile, and two katanas appeared in his hands, and he stole them at some point.

Throwing the Taidao back to him, Roach smiled and pulled Inosuke back to his seat.

"You should be able to feel it too. There are a few ghosts in this inn. It seems that we have encountered some difficulties."

"Ah, you mean ghost?"

After deciding that it was a trace of a ghost, the tension on Tanjirou's face dissipated. He pulled out the sword from his waist and said hastily.

"What about the two samurai in the previous position? We have to save them."

Roach shook his head and grabbed Tanjiro's arm. They were too far away at that time and they didn't see the abnormalities on the two of them.

"Are you sure those two warriors are human?"

As soon as the words were spoken, the two of them appeared on the stairs on the second floor again. Compared with before, their bodies looked much more normal, especially the limbs, which did not have the original stiffness, but there were more abnormalities on the face and body. Less mending traces.

The two warriors walked to their seats one after the other and sat down, continuing to eat the food and drinks on the table.

Roach was not in a hurry to make a move, and Tanjiro also became more vigilant because of his previous words, but Inosuke was not so patient.

Holding the two knives in his hands, he jumped towards the table and slashed down, causing the table to fall apart.

The samurai still maintained the movement of eating, but the food had been scattered all over the place, and a rotten smell immediately rushed into his nostrils.

Inosuke turned his blade and slashed at the old samurai, only to see his face split open like a blooming flower, and a long and narrow tongue blocked the blade.

"What the hell!" Inosuke was startled, took the sword back, and kicked the old samurai away violently.

And the other warrior also changed, his arm peeled off layer by layer, turning into a blood-red long whip, surrounding him together.

Roach glanced at Inosuke who was fighting, grabbed the handle of the knife with his right hand, turned his head and said to Tanjirou: "You stay here, I'll go upstairs and wait for your side to solve it, come to me .”

Tanjiro nodded. He watched Roach walk towards the stairs, pulled out the sword from his waist, and stepped forward two steps, just about to help Inosuke.

But he shouted out of breath: "Don't come to meddle in my battle, these are just two insignificant stepping stones."

"Pigs go ahead, pigs go ahead!!!"

While squatting down to avoid the attack, Inosuke turned his side towards the enemy while muttering to himself.

"I am the beast, the breath of the beast, the tooth of the one!!"

"Piercing and stabbing!!!"

Like a hungry beast, Inosuke, who grew up in the mountains, relied entirely on instinct for his sword skills. When he sprinted away, his body kept tossing and turning, avoiding several attacks.
