Hero Tomie

Chapter 74

The Taisho era was a romantic and short era. Emperor Taisho reigned for only 14 years. Although it was an unprecedented prosperity after the Meiji Restoration, it was easily overlooked because it was too short and stable.

Compared with Heian-kyo, where demons are rampant, Warring States, where vassals are turmoil, old and new conflicts, samurai at the end of the Meiji period, the short-lived Taisho era does not have too many eye-catching gorgeous backgrounds.

But it is indeed a prosperous era after the Meiji Restoration. The war abroad has come to an end, the environment is peaceful, and the country is stable. There is no shadow of war. The country looks beautiful and prosperous, and the frequent people at the train station reflect it well. at this point.

The train Fu Jiang will take is named 'Infinite Dream', implying that this country has infinite possibilities.

This is the first time Fujiang has seen this kind of ancient train. The whole body is almost made of wood except for the front and the base. After seeing many modern high-speed trains, such a slow wooden train has a small and fresh taste. .

Tomie intends to take this train to Yoshihara.

According to the instructions of the time-space teleportation spell, he should have landed near Fu Jiang in this world, but when he first came to this world, he sensed a powerful force of will, which made him uncontrollably attracted to him.

At this time, only the exclusive will can do it.

For example, people generally do not pray to Ebisu, who is in charge of business wealth, for academic progress. When praying for academic progress, they usually pray to the god of learning, Sugawara Michizane. This is the exclusive power of vows.

Another example is the establishment of a shrine, the deity that no one believes in will weaken and dissipate, and the shrine dedicated to this god will be established, and the power of the people who visit the shrine will fall on this god.

Fu Jiang doesn't know why there is an exclusive wish power that falls on him in this world, he is not a god.

Although he once achieved the position of the Great Priest, it was because he kept killing evil monsters and eliminated a lot of troubles for the Emperor and the nobles.

And the special product of this world, the man-eating creature called 'ghost', Fu Jiang also has no impression.

Maybe because he is a human being, many things have been blurred in tens of thousands of years of memory, but he remembers the creatures that eat people very clearly.For example, chimeric ants who eat humans will gain human power, and vampires who suck human blood.It was the first time he had heard of the "ghost" in the Taisho era.

Tomie thought for a long time, and felt that it should be traced back to Heian-kyo in the Taisho era where he is now, the Heian-kyo where he lived.And at a certain point in time after Heian-kyo, there was a bifurcation, which extended to the modern Japan where I was born, and extended to the Taisho era when "ghosts" appeared.

Just like a tree trunk, countless branches will appear as it grows.

He hadn't bothered with these things for long, and they weren't important things in the first place.

He was going to take the infinite dream train to Yoshihara, where Tomie of this world was waiting for him.

His main purpose was to gain enough time to study the black fire, and the system kept flashing red warnings after the accident happened.There is no limit to the time he can stay in this world, but he can't be too far away from another Fu Jiang.

"Don't you want it?" The man in front of Fu Jiang held his girlfriend's hand tightly, "I heard that many people have disappeared on this train recently, let's change it."

The woman was thin and had dark circles under her eyes. She looked very tired and insisted on taking this train.

The two argued endlessly, and the line waiting to buy tickets made dissatisfaction, and the marshals came to ask them not to hinder the ticket purchase.

"It's strange, more than 40 people are missing, how come there are still so many people buying tickets for the Infinity Dream train?" After driving away the men and women who hindered the ticket purchase, the policeman looked at Fu Jiang who bought the Infinity Dream train ticket and muttered, "Be careful on the train. "

Taking the ticket from the conductor who was staring at him the whole time, Tomie thanked him lightly. Before the policeman could say anything, there was a commotion at the other end of the platform. It seemed that someone had brought a pig into the station and hit him. The train, the policeman blew his whistle and rushed past.

Fu Jiang got into the car and found a corner seat by the window. There were more than a dozen people sitting sporadically in the car, which looked very empty.

"What? No more? Before the train started, you told me that the bento was gone?" The fat-headed man angrily yelled at the flight attendant, showing a golden tooth.

"I'm really sorry." The flight attendant was sweating profusely, "A customer in the front compartment bought all the prepared lunch boxes, and we are preparing new ones. Please wait a moment, and we will deliver them to you as soon as they are ready. Come."

The man rudely pushed the flight attendant away, "Buy them all? He is good to eat? He is rich? I want to see what kind of person he is!" Angrily walking to the front compartment, the flight attendant followed behind in fear.

The train whistled and started slowly.

"Can't sleep...why I still can't sleep..." A man hugged his head and moaned in pain.

"Soon, I'll fall asleep soon." The woman next to him comforted softly. Both of them looked very bad, with thick dark circles under their eyes as if they hadn't closed their eyes for several days.

The man who had gone forward came back with a box of bento in his hand. "I'm not afraid of him, so what if I hold a sword? If I do it, I can hit five like him! The guy with strange eyebrows, let him go this time!"

The flight attendant agreed perfunctorily with a suppressed smile. It seems that this gentleman's trip is not going well.

The door at the back opened, and three teenagers walked in. The one with the wild boar hood and the bare upper body made Fu Jiang take a second look. They looked around as if they were looking for something, and went all the way forward.

"The ticket check will start now, please show your tickets."

The man in overalls said dumbly, holding special scissors, and started to check tickets one by one.

……

The compartment was a bit stuffy, Fu Jiang pushed open the window, and the cold wind came in, which woke him up a lot when he was drowsy.

It was too quiet in the carriage, the sound of talking and children's play suddenly disappeared, replaced by long breaths.The man who complained painfully why he didn't fall asleep just now leaned against his wife and fell asleep with a happy smile on his face.

Not quite right.

Although falling asleep in the car is an important experience during the journey, the speed of falling asleep is too fast, right?

But really tired...

Fu Jiang leaned against the car window and slowly closed his eyes.

He had a good dream.

Fu Jiang opened his eyes, the train was still moving smoothly, and the people around him were still sleeping. He looked at his watch, only 10 minutes had passed, and the time in the dream was not equal to the time in reality.

I can't remember exactly what I dreamed about. It seems that I dreamed that a long time ago, I was ostentatiously walking through the market with a dazzling purple Shamat hairstyle, and Mr. Nakahara Nakaya, who had short hair, swung a punch in the face and missed it a little bit.

He lived the life of an ordinary person in his dream.

It's a nice dream.

Fu Jiang sat up straight, the air in the car was very hot, he pushed open the window, and a sticky pink piece of meat rushed towards him with lightning speed.

Fu Jiang slammed the window shut expressionlessly, the flesh with one eye was swollen blood red, tears rolled down from the eye, and it was snapped off with a snap.

The piece of meat that fell by the window stood up, and after the eyeballs, a mouth full of sharp teeth grew out, and it rushed over with a grinning grin, apparently trying to slap Fu Jiang in the face.

Before Fu Jiang could move, a sword light approached with a fiery temperature, and he cut dozens of swords on the meat in the blink of an eye. The blade was full of hot flames, and the meat quickly turned into a pile of coke.

Afterwards, Jian Guang quickly killed the piece of meat protruding in from the skylight. The speed was extremely fast, and the foreign objects that got into the carriage were removed in an instant, and then rushed to the next carriage, leaving only Fu Jiang behind.

But he came back soon, and when the piece of meat outside the car window tried to break the glass and come in, the man came back with a sword in his hand.

The guy with strange eyebrows, as soon as Fu Jiang saw his face, he remembered the description of the big man who rushed to the front car to find trouble when he came back because the bento was sold out before the departure.

That's right, this feature is in place, I can see the forked eyebrows at a glance, very angry, and I don't know if the yellow hair is dyed or natural, mixed with a few strands of red hair, which looks like a flame when combined.

"Oh? Someone woke up? Very good, can you take care of yourself so that these things don't touch you? I'm too busy to take care of five cars." The man laughed and said to Fu Jiang, with a sharp sword in his hand Fa kept strangling the meat for a moment.

Fu Jiang yawned slightly along his mouth with the back of his hand, blinked, and opened the window.

"Hey! Don't open the window, it's dangerous!" Purgatory Xingjurou shouted loudly, doubled the speed of swinging the sword, and cut off the piece of flesh that had climbed up to the passenger's shoulder, "Breath of Flame·One Type·Shiranui! "The speed increased like a burst of flames, rushing towards the piece of meat that had come in from the opened window.

"It's blocking my view of the scenery." Just as the blade was approaching the meat, he heard the awakened passenger say faintly.

The white fingers tapped lightly on the squirming pink flesh.

boom!

The blue flames erupted fiercely, engulfing the main carriage. Purgatory Xingshourou's first reaction in the sea of ​​flames was to rescue other passengers who were sleeping in the car.

After rushing out of two carriages, I suddenly realized that the flames were burning fiercely, but there was no temperature.

Unlike the flames he emitted when he used the breath of flame, the blue flames licked the wooden window sills, but did not burn the window sills.On the contrary, the 'ghost' who was clinging to the periphery of the carriage and trying to squeeze in and eat people all the time has slowly turned into fly ash and scattered.

The wind in the wilderness poured in through the broken windows of the car, blowing away the dull air. Some passengers who fell into sleep woke up with their eyes blindfolded. When they opened their eyes, they found that the entire carriage was burning, and they stood up and screamed. Shouting, jumping and shouting, they beat the flames, waking up the sleeping people around them.

Soon, the entire train was buzzing, beating the flames frantically, and some were even preparing to jump out of the windows to survive.

Fortunately, the flame disappeared in an instant, leaving a car of panicked people looking at each other.

The couple, who were suffering from not being able to fall asleep not long ago, also looked at each other at this moment. The man was holding the woman's hand and was about to jump out of the window to escape. One foot had already stepped on the window sill, which looked very funny.

The two stared blankly at each other for a while, smiles slowly gushed out of their eyes, they laughed and cried again, and there was a new brilliance in their dry and sad eyes.

"Although I really want to see Xiaomao again..." His wife wiped away the tears on her cheeks, "Sure enough, I still want to live with you in reality."

The man put his foot down from the car window, hugged his wife tenderly and cried bitterly.

Many people who are addicted to dreams also have the same feelings as them, it is better to live in reality.

Purgatory Xingshourou poked his head out of the broken glass window curiously, and the ghost tightly entangled with the train had disappeared.

Boom boom boom! !There was the sound of running fast overhead.

"Mr. Purgatory! Are you okay?"

Purgatory Xingshoulang happily agreed: "It's okay, it's very good, you guys! Is the carriage in front all right?"

Soon, the three teenagers rushed into the carriage all the way and joined Purgatory Xing Shoulang.

"Mr. Purgatory! Did you kill an oni?" Zamon Tanjiro asked excitedly, "It's amazing! We just found the backbone of the oni in the front compartment, and it caught fire before we even started, and the oni was burned Turned to ashes!"

"Haha! That's great, everyone survived." Purgatory Xingshourou said with a big laugh. "But I didn't kill the ghost, it should be the guest who woke up in the last carriage."

"Are you also a member of the Demon Slayer Team?" Kamado Tanjiro picked up his younger sister Kamado Nezuko, who had shrunk and slowly climbed into the box and closed her eyes, and asked in surprise, "Is it Zhu!? Too powerful Yes! That ghost said that he has merged with the train, and the passengers on the train are all his spare bodies, and we dare not attack him at will. Is it all solved in one fell swoop?"

Purgatory Xingshoulang scratched his head, "I don't know either. He didn't wear a team uniform, nor did he wear a sword. Why don't we go and ask together. I also want to know how he killed the ghost without using the sun wheel knife." .”

A group of people walked back to the last carriage, and immediately noticed the most eye-catching person.

Sitting quietly in the corner, with one hand resting on his chin, blowing the wind leisurely, his eyes turned to the darkness outside the train.

"Did you kill that ghost? Thank you very much!" Kamado Tanjiro bowed in gratitude. If it weren't for this weird fire, it would be difficult for them to escape unscathed.

Too beautiful!My wife Shanyi silently licked the other side's flawless face with her gaze, and regretfully landed on the flat chest, unfortunately it was a man.No no no! !He shook his head violently, I am wholeheartedly for Nezuko!

"You misunderstood." The man glanced at them coldly, and said lightly, "It's just because he blocked me from seeing the scenery."

"But it's so dark outside that you can't see anything?" the boy wearing a wild boar hood said in a low voice.

Tomie: ...

"In short, it's good that the matter is resolved hahaha!" Purgatory Xingshoulang rubbed his belly, "I'm a little hungry, let's find something to eat!" After finishing speaking, it passed like the wind.

The three teenagers obediently sat down in front of Fu Jiang.

"How did sir kill the ghost just now?" Kamado Tanjiro asked curiously, "It is said that only sunlight and the Japanese sword can kill ghosts." Looking at the handsome gentleman with burning eyes, he waited for the answer with full anticipation.

He wants to know more about ghosts, and wants to help his sister turn back into a human as soon as possible.

"Only the sun and the sun wheel knife can kill ghosts?" The voice like a clear spring sounded slowly, and the good-looking gentleman smiled, "There must be more than these two methods, but they haven't been discovered," paused for a moment, and squinted slightly The raised eyes burst into a bright brilliance: "Maybe no one can do it yet."

The three teenagers were shocked, and looked at the man who said such words in astonishment.

What arrogance and self-confidence is this.

Not to mention Mr. Purgatory who is a pillar, even the lord may not be able to say such words with such certainty.

Kamado Tanjirou stared at the handsome gentleman with sparkling eyes, "What kind of method?!"

"What kind of method?" Mr. Good-looking said casually, "You just have to be strong enough."

Not because the enemy is too strong, but because you are not strong enough.

This sentence is like a lamp that illuminates the darkness, and ignites the strength in the hearts of the young people.

"But you are already very good," Mr. Good-looking's cold voice softened a little bit, "It's very good to be able to hold a sword and face the enemy directly at a young age. When I was 13 years old", I don't know what I thought, Mr. Good-looking smiled, "I can't even dodge a punch."

"Hahaha, that's right, you guys are already doing pretty well!" Purgatory Xingshoulang came back with a tall stack of bento boxes, put them on the table and signaled the tired teenagers to take them by themselves, and enthusiastically stuffed them for Mr. One box, and the half-opened window was pulled shut.

"You're so thin that you can't wield a knife. Eat more, and you'll get sick if you blow too much wind." Lian Ji Xing Shou Lang has a bold nature and likes to take care of others. It's really worrying. "The staff on the train are busy trying to figure out a way to stop the train hahaha, so let me carry the bento by myself."

"Ahhh!! The train can't stop?!! What should I do?!! Are we going to die?!" My wife Shanyi screamed in horror, holding her head.

"It's okay, there are professionals here, you have to have confidence in them!" Purgatory Xingjulang patted my wife Shanyi on the shoulder, "It's useless to worry now, eat first."

The food on the train doesn’t taste very good, but Purgatory Kyojuro eats it with gusto, and Inosuke Hirai, who has taken off the wild boar hood, is actually a delicate-looking boy with a very big personality.

"Ah, by the way, I haven't asked your name yet?" Purgatory Xingshoulang raised his head and asked halfway through eating, "Why don't you eat?"

"Tomi Kawakami." Mr. Haoyan looked a little helpless, as if he couldn't do anything about Mr. Purgatory's character. After saying his name, he opened the warm bento box, chewed and ate slowly with chopsticks.

My wife Shanyi secretly looks at Mr. Kawakami from time to time, he looks even better than a girl, every movement is flowing and elegant, as if he came from those old noble families.

"Oh, Kawakami, are you also a member of the ghost killing team?" Purgatory Anjuro asked with a smile, "How did you kill ghosts?" His bright eyes were full of confusion, and he hesitated: "It was never In a way I've never seen before."

"Actually, I don't really know what a ghost is. Can you tell me about it?" Putting down the half-eaten bento, Fu Jiang apologized to the remaining half in his heart. His principle is not to waste food, but this The half-cold bento is really too hard to swallow.The history of trains in Japan is still very short, and many services are just getting started. The food provided on the trains is not as good as that of later generations.

The train was beeping rhythmically, and the panicked passengers didn't know that the train was out of control and could not be stopped. Although the panic was not too busy, Sother sat waiting for the train to arrive.

"...That's it. I must defeat Onimai Tsuji and find a way to turn Nezuko back into a human!" Kamado Tanjiro said firmly.

"Yes, the two of us can only get married if Nezuko turns back into a human, am I right, brother?" My wife Zenitsu said seriously, looking at Tanjiro Kamado with the same firm eyes.

"Impossible! I won't marry my sister to you!" My wife Zenyi's sincere confession was ruthlessly rejected by Kamado Tanjiro.Tanjiro held the box in his arms tightly and refused to let my wife get close, watching him vigilantly: "You don't want to get close to Nezuko!"

Fu Jiang blinked after hearing this, Gui Wu Tsuji Wu Mi, such a fresh and refined name, he seems to have heard of it somewhere.But I didn't take it too seriously. I met so many people that I couldn't remember them all.

"I'm a priest. I have practiced in the mountains since I was a child. I just left the mountains recently. I never thought there would be such a terrifying existence in the world." Mr. Good-looking said with a sigh.

"You don't have to be afraid, you just poked a ghost with one finger to death, there is no need to be afraid hahaha!" Purgatory Xingshoulang patted Mr. Good-looking on the shoulder very familiarly. "I've seen priests before, wearing nice clothes to preside over weddings for newcomers, and visiting shrines during Chinese New Year. I've never paid special attention to them. So priests are such powerful people?"

The pair of eyes that looked at him were clear and innocent, and the curiosity inside could be seen clearly. Purgatory Xingjurou's question seemed to be a perfectly normal curiosity, without any sense of temptation.

After listening to Mr. Haoyan, he thought for a while before answering: "I don't know either. I have been living in the mountains. I don't know what the priests in the outside world are like."

"It's really amazing, haha, I just came out of the mountains and got to know the outside world so quickly." Purgatory Xingshoulang praised.

Mr. Good-looking narrowed his dark eyes slightly, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Because I'm smart."

The three teenagers shivered, and even Inosuke Heihira, who had been bare-chested, felt as if he had entered the cold winter, and a blizzard was coming soon.

Why is it obviously a normal conversation, whether it is Mr. Purgatory or Mr. Good-looking, both of them have very peaceful attitudes. Mr. Purgatory is still the same as always, with a hearty smile at all times, but the three teenagers sitting opposite them always feel that A burst of cold wind hit my face, so strange haha.

"The ghost you are talking about, in my eyes, is just a black and filthy soul. To deal with this kind of thing, it needs to be purified. After getting rid of the filth, a peaceful soul can be reborn."

With a pure and holy face, Fu Jiang spoke nonsense solemnly.

How could it be possible to die?He thought of Master Patriarch of the Bliss Sect who was torn into pieces by the evil spirits a few days ago.

After doing so many evils, do you think that you can be forgiven if you repent and shed a few tears when you are dying?How can you embarrass the innocent people who were killed by you?

Impossible to be forgiven.
