The Demon Slayer Corps headquarters is located between the mountains and is extremely hidden. It is said that Muzan Kibutsuji spent a thousand years but still failed to find the headquarters of the Demon Slayer Corps.

Think about it, for the entire Demon Slayer Corps, the headquarters is as important as the brain, how can it not be hidden and cautious?

Logically, Hori Gaku and his team should need certain confidentiality measures to go to such an important place, but they did not.

The carriage carrying several people drove into the mountains, turning around between the mountains and gullies. On the way, there were secret checkpoints of the Demon Slayer Corps that stopped the carriage and stopped for inspection.

Hori Gaku thought at the time, let's check it, as long as it's not too much, it doesn't matter if it's checked, anyway, I'm not afraid of the shadow.

Who knows, as long as the Ubuyashiki siblings in the carriage in front show up, this checkpoint inspection will be waived!

The two carriages drove almost unimpeded into the mountains.

Another point is that there is no cover around the carriage, and Hori Gaku and his team can see the road through the window.

What does this mean?

It means that as long as someone has a strong memory, he can remember the way to the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters.

It was the first time for Hori Gaku to go to the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters. Hori Gaku was still a new member of the Demon Slayer Corps. Why didn't he avoid him? Why did he trust him so much?

I don't know if it was the decision of the Ubuyashiki siblings or the order of Ubuyashiki Yoya, but no matter who it was, Hori Gaku felt great respect and trust.

To be honest, this feeling is very good, a feeling of dying for a friend!

No wonder the Ubuyashiki clan can lead the Demon Slayer Corps for thousands of years, no wonder such a weak person as Ubuyashiki Yoya can make a group of elite soldiers and generals obedient, this method and this spirit are not simple!

If Ubuyashiki Yoya was a Chinese, if Hori Gaku was an ordinary person without the arrogance of a time traveler, it is possible that Hori Gaku would be ready to bow down.

Even so, Hori Gaku had a great liking for Ubuyashiki Yoya, whom he had not met yet.

By the way, Mitsuri, who was beside Hori Gaku, was getting more and more excited because of this respect and trust.

The two carriages continued to drive along a mountain road and arrived at the legendary Demon Slayer Corps headquarters! The

Demon Slayer Corps headquarters is by no means a simple house, but a place similar to a mountain town composed of many buildings and many departments.

The two carriages went straight to the headquarters, the residence of Ubuyashiki Yoshiya.

There is the brain and heart of the entire Demon Slayer Corps.

After getting off the carriage, Mitsuri was surprised at the elegance and exquisiteness of the residence and the building in front of her. Hori Gaku was well-informed and was not so surprised.

Under the leadership of the Ubuyashiki siblings, Hori Gaku, Gyomei, and Mitsuri entered. They were placed in a place covered with white pebbles, which was also the place where the Pillar Meeting was held.

Afterwards, the Ubuyashiki siblings entered the house to invite Ubuyashiki Yoshiya.

Hori Gaku and the other two waited quietly here.

Soon, a frail man, supported by the Ubuyashiki siblings, walked out of the house and stood in the corridor.

This man had a handsome face and a gentle temperament, but unfortunately, his forehead was disfigured, which was a bit scary and regrettable.

Ubuyashiki Yoya stood in the corridor, looking at Horitake and the other two, and smiled kindly:

"Finally meet you, my new kid.……"

His voice and the rhythm of his movements make people feel happy. This is an ability that only people who can drive the masses have. Hori Gaku sighed in his heart, he is indeed a natural leader!

Xingming was the first to kneel on one knee in front of Yaoya, saluted, and called him Lord. Mitsuri was a little excited and a little flustered, but she also reacted and knelt on one knee to salute, also calling him Lord.

What about Hori Gaku? Is he going to do the same?

Of course not. Next, he did a move that no one expected.

Hori Gaku stood straight, clasped his hands forward, and bowed to Ubuyashiki Yaoya in an extremely grand manner!

""Hori Gaku, I meet the leader!"

That's right! The ancient Chinese etiquette is to bow!

It's not to clasp your fists, but to bow your hands.

Unlike kneeling, kneeling represents submission, while bowing represents solemnity and respect.

This ceremony also represents Hori Gaku's attitude towards Ubuyashiki Yoya.

I respect you because you are the leader of the Demon Slayer Corps, because you have outstanding personality charm, a broad mind, care for your subordinates, lead the entire Demon Slayer Corps, have great wisdom and courage, and are a perfect leader.

I am willing to be led by you, but I will not respect you as the master.

Everyone present was shocked by Hori Gaku's salute.

Although Xingming couldn't see, he was also very surprised to hear Hori Gaku's actions.

At this time, although Ubuyashiki Yoya's face was severely disfigured and the curse had deepened, he was not in critical condition yet. Now, one of his eyes was still intact.

Yoya was very surprised to see Horitake bowing to him.

It was the first time for Yoya to encounter such etiquette, and he could clearly feel the profound connotations contained in this bow.

Ubuyashiki Yoya was knowledgeable and recognized that this etiquette came from the suzerain country across the sea!

Horitake's salute made the usually peaceful Yoya a little flustered. With the support of his two children, he also bowed in return:

"Horitake, you're welcome."

After the two of them exchanged greetings, Mitsuri and Xingming also stood up.

Yaoya couldn't help but be curious about Horitake:

"Horitake, you……"

Next, it was time for Hori Gaku to talk nonsense.

This nonsense also needed to be well-founded and convincing.

Fortunately, Hori Gaku had already prepared a draft in his mind:

"To be honest, I am indeed an orphan, but I still remember what it was like when I was very young, and I still remember who my parents were.

My mother is from Japan, and my father is a Chinese who came to Japan to seek refuge.

So, I still remember the etiquette and knowledge my father taught me when I was young."

Yaoya chose to believe what Horitake said.

Japan is relatively closed, and ordinary people definitely don't know what Chinese etiquette looks like. Horitake's bow is solemn and grand, and it is obvious that it is not something he heard or imitated.

Yaoya treats people like a spring breeze:

"It turns out that Horitake is a person from the suzerain country. How disrespectful!"

""It's a great honor to be the master."

In this way, Horitake and Yoya officially met. Because of this little twist, both sides also confirmed their relationship, which is a subordinate relationship, not a master-servant relationship.

To put it bluntly, it is the relationship between boss and employee, not the relationship between lord and servant.

In fact, strictly speaking, the relationship between the pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps and Yoya is not a master-servant relationship.

Compared with other members of the Demon Slayer Corps, the relationship between Horitake and Yoya is more equal.

After the two sides got to know each other, they sat opposite each other in the corridor and officially started the conversation.

Yoya took the lead in expressing his gratitude to Horitake:

"I didn't expect that such a big change would happen in the final selection this time. If it weren't for your timely rescue, my two children would have been in trouble. I am really grateful."

Hori Gaku smiled heartily:

"The underground ghost wants to catch us all in one fell swoop, of course I will not sit and wait for death, and the two little guys are in danger, of course I will not stand idly by."

"I heard from my two children that this underground ghost that appeared this time is very unusual."

Speaking of business, Horitake also became serious:

"Yes, this ghost's strength was not weak to begin with. After eating enough people in Tengxi Mountain, it became even stronger.

Moreover, the most difficult and troublesome thing about it was his blood ghost technique.

He could sneak underground and between the soil layers, making it hard to guard against.

Because there is no sunlight underground, the underground ghost can also move during the day.

When the blood ghost technique is activated, it can control the ground and soil over a large area, causing small-scale landslide disasters.

It can even compress the soil to form rock giants and rock pythons."
