In the dark forest, Horitake walked slowly.

As he walked, he stopped in front of a big tree, looked at the tree, and smiled triumphantly.

Horitake used the hilt of his sword to knock on the trunk of the tree, rhythmically knocking and muttering:

"Be good, little rabbit, open the door, open it quickly, Mommy...Daddy wants to come in."

Just after knocking, the tree trunk in front of Horitake burst open with a click, and a female ghost with a green face, fangs and a long tongue rushed out of the tree trunk, and rushed towards Horitake with her teeth and claws! Horitake had a blank expression on his face, and he used the Heavenly Thunder Breathing, and swung a scabbard over. The unsheathed aura carried rolling thunder and lightning, and swung it directly and fiercely on the face of the female ghost!

With a muffled bang and accompanied by screams, the female ghost was swung to the left side of Horitake, broke a small tree, and fell to the ground.

Because of the restraint and destructiveness of the Heavenly Thunder on Horitake's body to ghosts, the female ghost was seriously injured by the scabbard, and her injuries could not be recovered, so she could only sit on the ground.

Horitake walked towards the female ghost step by step.

With the sound of footsteps getting closer and closer, the female ghost became more and more desperate and crazy.

She raised her head, stared at Horitake with bloody eyes, and said viciously:

"Why? Why won’t you let me go!?"

Hori Gaku had no expression on his face and said indifferently:

"Look at what you said. Why didn’t you let go of those people you ate?"

"I am a ghost! Ghosts eat people! It is only natural!"The ghost girl roared

"Then it is only natural for us, the Demon Slayer Corps, to kill demons." Horitake's tone was cold, and it was unclear whether it was a joke or a mockery, and he added:"If you have the ability, don't eat people."

The female demon was so angry that she laughed:

"How could there be a ghost that doesn't eat people?"

Don't tell me, there really is a ghost that doesn't eat people. I know a ghost, and she's a female ghost!

Hori Gaku complained in his heart, and the sword in his hand remained unsheathed. With a flash of lightning, he stabbed the female ghost with a knife!

There is no doubt that the female ghost was beheaded by Hori Gaku's sword, and died.

Looking at the gradually dissipating ghost corpse, Hori Gaku thought in his heart.

It has been two or three months since I joined the Demon Slayer Corps. How many ghosts have I killed?

I can't count them all, at least thirty or forty.

Because Hori Gaku Hori Gaku has been killing demons like crazy recently, and the Demon Slayer Corps has given him the nickname of a workaholic.

By the way, Hori Gaku has long been a top-level A-class swordsman in the Demon Slayer Corps, and he is only one step away from becoming a pillar.

As long as he continues to kill demons, or kills a lower moon of the Twelve Demon Moons, Hori Gaku will be promoted to a pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps, which is why Hori Gaku has been killing demons like crazy recently.

Hori Gaku was thinking like this, and the aura in his hand faintly conveyed his emotions to Hori Gaku.

"Hmm? What? You want to unsheathe and kill ghosts?

Sorry, the ghosts I've killed recently are just small ghosts, so there's no need for you to unsheathe.

When you killed Jing Lu before, you thought that ghosts like that weren't worth killing, let alone these small ghosts!"

"What? You've been stuck in the sheath for two or three months? You want to get some fresh air?

Are you kidding? I pull you out every now and then to clean and maintain you. How can you not get some fresh air?"

"Haha, you want to see blood? Can't help it? Don't be picky? Don't have a bad temper?

It's too late! Keep it in the sheath! When I'm in a good mood, I'll take you out to drink blood.

It's no use begging me, who made you lose your temper with me before? I can cure your temper!

Little guy! Can't I cure you?"

Although Wei Guang is a very powerful and spiritual sword, Hori Gaku didn't spoil it at all. He had to teach it a lesson!

At the beginning, when Wei Guang was just acquired and named, he dared to provoke Tianlei, and Hori Gaku almost died with it. This temper should be cured!

Tying Wei Guang around his waist, Hori Gaku looked at where he was, found the right direction, and walked forward:

"This place is quite close to Xiawu Mountain, so I can go and see my future brother-in-law and future wife."

"I don't know how they are doing now."

Mumbling to himself and humming a little tune, Horitake walked towards Gorge Kiri Mountain.

Inside Gorge Kiri Mountain, the sun rose and it was morning.

As the saying goes, a day's plan begins in the morning, morning is the best time and the most suitable time for training.

Tanjiro's biological clock had woken him up long ago.

He hurriedly prepared a table of breakfast.

After having breakfast with Urokodaki, he didn't need to be reminded.

He took his knife and took the initiative to run out of the house and run up the mountain to train.

Tanjiro's training program this morning is: run down the mountain from the top of Gorge Kiri Mountain, and in the middle, he needs to cross the traps set by Urokodaki last night, and get to the front of Urokodaki's hut as quickly as possible.

Just like that, Tanjiro went up the mountain, found a direction, held a self-defense knife in his hand, and ran down the mountain without hesitation to meet the cruel training.

Yes, it is very cruel training, which can be seen from the traps set by Urokodaki.

The trap ahead Tanjiro Already familiar with the situation, relying on his extraordinary sense of smell, Tanjiro dodged many traps and mechanisms by dodging left and right, jumping up and down.

The first half of the journey basically didn't take Tanjiro much time. Tanjiro was not happy with this small achievement at all. He knew that the traps would become more difficult as he went further, and from time to time there would be new traps designed by Master Urokodaki, which made it difficult to guard against.

A slight lapse in his brain caused Tanjiro to accidentally trigger a trap!

When Tanjiro was tripped by a rope and fell to the ground, he knew that it was bad!

Without saying a word, Tanjiro jumped away from the spot!

Sure enough, many sharpened bamboos shot from all directions, and Tanjiro quickly dodged by flipping and jumping. The bamboos were shot very densely, and Tanjiro could still dodge them at first, but he couldn't dodge the last few bamboos!

The samurai sword in his hand came into play at this time.

��Fortunately, Tanjiro has already learned swordsmanship. Facing several flying bamboos, he decisively chopped and blocked them, defeating the incoming bamboos!

No more bamboos came, Tanjiro panted and held up the knife, looking around vigilantly.

The surroundings were quiet and there was nothing unusual.

It seemed that the trap ended here, and Tanjiro decisively continued to run down!

Because he was concentrating on training, Tanjiro did not notice or smell the existence of Horitake.

At this time, Horitake was standing on a big tree, watching Tanjiro's back as he ran down, pinching his chin:

"I didn't expect that Master Urokodaki's training style is like this. It's completely different from my master's training style."

"Oh? What is the training style of that Kuwashima guy?"

At some point, Urokodaki stood on a branch next to Horitake and asked.

After thinking for a while, Horitake replied:

"Pure physical training and endurance training, occasionally there is actual combat training, but not much, and there has never been such flexible trap escape training."

"That's because of the different breathing methods."

"How to say?"

"Thunder Breathing requires sudden explosive power and a strong physique, so Kuwajima's training is mainly physical training. If the body is not well-trained, it cannot support the power of Thunder Breathing.

My Water Breathing requires flexibility and continuity, so these traps are needed to train Tanjiro's adaptability and endurance."

Looking at Tanjiro's back from a distance, Horitake found that Tanjiro had triggered another trap and was trying to dodge it.

"Master Urokodaki, isn't this a bit too much? Aren't you worried that Tanjiro will die in your trap?"

Urokodaki said expressionlessly: (Where does the expression on the mask come from?)

"I have carefully calculated that as long as Tanjiro fights hard enough, these traps will not kill him, but will instead further squeeze out Tanjiro's potential."

(There is a three-second interval)

"Tanjiro's perseverance is terrifying. I want to thank you for letting me accept such a disciple.

If I had missed Tanjiro, I would probably regret it."
