My cubs are all blackened

At night, the moon and stars are sparse.

A figure wearing a straw hat wandered around the village.

The moonlight sprinkled on his body like water, adding a bit of ambiguity to his figure, and he lowered the brim of his hat so that his face could hardly be seen.

He didn't bring anything by his side, he just walked slowly and aimlessly on the street.

On this terrifying night where life may be threatened at any time, almost no one wants to go out and wander around. Therefore, the figure of this person is very obvious, and the steady and high-frequency footsteps are also clearly heard in the silence. resounded through the night.

Ye Lian walked calmly, as if merging with nothingness.

I don't know how long he wandered in such a daze, Ye Lian's figure suddenly stopped in place, listening to the sound in the distance.

He actually heard a series of hurried footsteps coming towards his position.

Ye Lian's eyes lighted up slightly, he had already stayed in this village for two days, if there was no result today, he planned to wait in another place tomorrow, but he did not expect that he would actually be made to wait on the last day.

If he would go out at such a night, and at an extremely fast speed, he must be a ghost.

However, Ye Lian did not recklessly plan to preemptively strike the target he was thinking of. He wanted to pretend to be an ordinary human being who knew nothing, and was attacked by ghosts on purpose.

The moment the ghost bit his neck carelessly was the time for that ghost to die.

Ye Lian quietly took a step forward, walking calmly as if he didn't hear the approaching footsteps.

There seemed to be a hazy shadow not far away. Before Ye Lian could see it clearly, he tapped his toes and jumped towards him with great force, causing Ye Lian to narrow his eyes slightly.

coming!

Ye Lian's fingers curled up slightly, subconsciously took a step back on his toes, put his five fingers together, aimed at the ghost's chest and pierced it.

He wanted to stab the opponent's chest with a punch, but a bright white light flashed his eyes, which made his movements slow down by half a beat, and his posture stagnated in the air, reminding him of danger , had no choice but to dodge to one side reflexively.

Then, he clearly heard the piercing sound of sharp steel hitting the ground.

Ye Lian stabilized his figure, raised the brim of his hat slightly, and took advantage of the monster's good sight, he suddenly realized that the ghost who attacked him just now was holding a Japanese sword in his hand!

... Now even ghosts have mastered cold weapon technology!

Ye Lian couldn't help being a little surprised.

In his memory, the ghost who attacked him didn't have any weapons and only relied on sharp claws to attack, but today, a year later, the ghost in front of him has mastered the way of the sword, and his progress has been tremendous.

But it doesn't matter, Ye Lian has also learned how to use Japanese swords, it's better to say that he is quite proficient, but the way of swords swallowing jujubes can't help him at all.

He quickly covered the palm of his hand with a layer of blue electric current, and fiercely attacked the ghost's position.

In order to have the strength to fight against ghosts, Ye Lian deliberately chose to become a semi-demon to maintain his strength. Now, his palm nails are sharp and hard, almost piercing the skin of ghosts.

The two fought back and forth more than a dozen times, and it was almost a draw.

The ghost figure in front of him is dexterous and has a high fighting quality, and the Japanese sword made of unknown material can withstand his attack, Ye Lian will not be able to conquer it for a while.

And looking at the ghost who blocked his palm with the blade and tried his best to prevent him from attacking, for some reason, Ye Lian felt a strange feeling in his heart.

I always feel that from the perspective of the fighting style of the two, Ye Lian is more like a ghost's attack method, and this ghost in front of him is also more like a human's attack method.

When Ye Lian saw the ghost attacking him with a sword technique called water breath, the sense of weirdness and disobedience almost reached its peak.

I heard from the villagers that ghosts are pure lovers of human blood, and they like to see human struggling expressions, but this ghost in front of him seems to want to chop off his head, and moves to attack his neck.

The clouds and mist in the sky almost covered the entire moon, and Ye Lian's hat brim was too low, so he could only see the afterimage of this ghost.

Originally, Ye Lian planned to kill the ghost first and then see if it was the ghost that attacked him. After all, he didn't like all ghosts and didn't care about ghosts' life or death at all, but now, Ye Lian wanted to make sure of one thing.

"Wait a minute." Taking advantage of the pause in the attack, Ye Lian talked to the ghost in front of him, but the ghost was surprisingly silent, and without saying a word, he slashed at him with a knife, making Ye Lian only back away.

"I want to ask you a few questions, just pause for a moment."

Afterwards, Ye Lian said it several times, but every time he answered, it was the blades that struck him from all directions.

There was no other way, Ye Lian could only choose an opportunity to quickly jump to the side of the tree trunk.

The monster's body is naturally more active than normal people. When Ye Lian jumped to the top branch, the shadow under the tree had just reached the root of the tree, and it seemed that he would catch up to fight him in the next second.

However, Ye Lian threw a stone quickly, which just hit the ghost's toes, forcing the ghost to stay away from it.

He stood on a high branch, looking down at each other. The wind blew the hair on his cheeks, causing him to raise the brim of his hat slightly: "Keep this distance, I have something to ask you."

He used a cold tone, and his blue eyes seemed to contain no emotion, all the tenderness disappeared at this moment, leaving only the eagerness for revenge.

"Are you a ghost?"

Ye Lian asked bluntly.

In fact, when the 'ghost' under the tree did not catch up with the super high mobility immediately, a possibility formed in Ye Lian's mind.

This is most likely not a ghost, but a human being.

If it is a ghost, the body should be more flexible than this.

And the shadow under the tree stared at him motionlessly holding the knife, a light seemed to flash in the dark eyes, at such a long distance, Ye Lian raised the brim of his hat, exposing his appearance to that person's vision, At the same time, he also fully saw the person's appearance.

Unexpectedly, he looked just grown up, handsome, unsmiling, and from the outside, he was just a somewhat indifferent human being.

He stared straight at Ye Lian's direction with his cold eyes, and finally spoke the first sentence.

"You are a ghost."

It turned out to be repeating Ye Lian's lines.

Ye Lian was slightly taken aback, and raised his eyebrows a little: "I'm asking you a question, are you a ghost?"

"You are a ghost."

He didn't answer, and in Ye Lian's feeling, he simply repeated his lines like a child.

"...so you are a ghost?"

"You are a ghost."

"..."

Such never-ending conversations never seem to end.

Ye Lian was a little suspicious of life.

He was trying hard to distinguish something from the young man's expression, and relying on his previous experience in contact with cold and silent people, suddenly a flash of light flashed through his mind.

"You mean... am I a ghost?" Ye Lian finally understood a little bit.

The young man stopped parroting his tongue, but nodded slowly.

Ye Lian's expression relaxed, and he explained: "I'm not a ghost."

The young man looked at him indifferently, and suddenly shifted his gaze to his palm: "Claw, attack method, you are a ghost."

"..."

Ye Lian suddenly had no way to defend himself.

He looked down at his paws which were clearly different from humans, and sighed with some headache.

Yes, his appearance is indeed misleading.

"I'm not a ghost." No way, Ye Lian could only barely explain: "My power is a little special, and I can only attack like this, so..."

Just as he was speaking with difficulty, a strange cry suddenly came from a distance, and his hoarse voice looked very much like a damaged throat.

Ye Lian's words stopped abruptly, and he listened intently to the voice he had never heard before, but the young man raised his head very calmly and looked at the distant sky.

"Tanjiro, Tanjiro, here, here!"

The voice was urging and speaking, and the sound of hurried footsteps gradually sounded in the distance.

Just as Ye Lian was observing this scene suspiciously, guessing whether it was a human or a ghost coming here, what appeared in his vision was a...a crow? ?

That's right, it was an ordinary crow covered in pitch black. The crow was uttering human language, hovering above the young man, calling again and again: "Tanjirou, Tanjirou."

"..."

Ye Lian was stunned that the crow could speak so fluently these days.

And the weirder thing is still to come, I saw that following the crow was a boy who was only fourteen or fifteen years old. The boy also had a knife on his body and a box on his back. He looked full of vigor and vitality. .

He spoke to the crow in a very ordinary way: "Wait! Be careful, the atmosphere around here is very strong, I can't tell where the ghost is... Ah!"

When he met the young man under the tree, the expression on his face suddenly turned into joy, and he even trotted to the young man's side: "Mr. Tomioka, I didn't expect you to be here too, are you hunting ghosts?"

"Hmm." Facing the familiar person, Yoshiyuki Tomioka still didn't speak, and he didn't even feel the joy of encountering him by chance.

He just nodded to accept the fact, and then looked at the boy curiously, as if guessing the reason why he came here.

Ye Lian watched their conversation quietly, and finally figured out the relationship between them alone.

In short, both men are human and both are on the way to hunt ghosts.

Even a child who is only a teenager has to participate in hunting ghosts, which shows the desolation of the situation.

But now it is also clear that his target is not these two people, this time it is just an oolong incident.

Ye Lian sighed, always felt that the recent plan to find ghosts was not going well, which made him worried.

"The ghost is there."

Just as he was thinking, a cold voice exploded not far away, Ye Lian was taken aback, and after lowering his head, he saw Tomioka Giyuu who was pointing at him with a righteous face.

The young man next to him was also shocked, and quickly pulled out the knife from his waist, aiming at him vigilantly, but there was a strange look on his face.

Ye Lian felt that he was exhausted from explaining.

"...So I'm not a ghost, I've explained it many times since just now."

What a joke, his goal is just a ghost, the same as the goal of these two people, he doesn't want to make a lot of enemies out of it.

But his good intentions did not seem to be accepted by Yoshiyuki Tomioka.

Seeing this, Tomioka Yoshiyuki turned his head to look at Kamado Tanjirou, and Kamado Tanjirou who received his gaze directly understood his thoughts for some reason, and nodded vigorously.

Afterwards, he closed his eyes and sniffed the nearby air vigorously with his nose, the doubts on his face getting deeper and deeper.

"This guy is absolutely not human, I can assure you." He looked at Ye Lian and said firmly, "There is no human breath in him."

Ye Lian, whose identity was exposed, was surprised. He never expected that someone could determine his true identity just by smelling the air.

What a formidable talent.

"But..." Zamon Tanjiro hesitated for a moment, and continued to add: "This aura doesn't look like a ghost...it's strange, I've never smelled such an aura before."

Ye Lian's eyes suddenly lit up, yes, he is not a ghost, so he is not the target of human beings, how about letting them let each other go? !

On his side, he thought very well, but unfortunately none of the human beings under the tree felt his longing.

"..." Yoshiyuki Tomioka stared at Tanjiro Kamado silently, and three seconds later, he suddenly tilted his head with a puzzled expression.

After that, he glanced at Ye Lian for a while, and Tanjirou for a while, completely in a state of vacillation.

"Ah, I'm sorry, Tomioka-san is already confused!" Kamado Tanjiro hurriedly apologized.

After thinking about it, he showed a bright smile, "Well, although I don't understand the truth, but he is not human anyway, so we can't let him go!"

"Anyway, how about arresting him first?... As for the next thing, I suggest that it is better to send it to the lord and let the lord judge it."

Ye Lian: "..."

Tomioka Yoshiyuki nodded, and also put on an attacking posture, and responded happily: "Okay."

Ye Lian: "..."

Ye Lian could only sigh with difficulty.

These days, just because they are not human beings will suffer so much malice.

Monsters are simply too difficult.

"Since you won't listen to my explanation...then there's nothing you can do about it."

Ye Lian shrugged his shoulders. If he was careful enough at this moment, he could notice that his voice was much softer than before. Even when he was speaking cruel words, his aura seemed gentle.

"I can only beat you up first, and explain it to you slowly."

Suddenly, his tone was extremely low, and for some reason, his originally blue eyes shone with golden light under the moonlight.

"If it hurts, don't blame me."

As he said that, his figure jumped down from the tree, his palm was also covered with a layer of strange electric light, and he slashed straight towards Tomioka Yoshiyuki's chest.

But Tomioka Yoshiyuki raised the knife with a very quick reflex to resist the sharp claw. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Kamado Tanjiro jumped up at the right time, and slashed at Ye Lian's neck with the sharp blade.

With the right time, place and people, Ye Lian's neck was under his knife, and there was no possibility of escape.

But Zamon Tanjiro turned the knife in an instant and pointed the back of the knife at Ye Lian. He did not forget the order to capture him alive.

However, at the moment when he thought he had succeeded, Kamado Tanjirou didn't have the real feeling that he had hit the object.

He widened his eyes in surprise, the movements around him gradually slowed down under his sight, and he could clearly see the blade passing through Ye Lian's knife and slashing straight to the ground.

"what happened?!"

The next second, he felt a pain in his abdomen. Ye Lian's attack had already been overwhelming. He groaned in pain with such force that he slammed into the tree trunk behind him.

Kamado Tanjiro's ability is obviously not as strong as Tomioka Yoshiyuki, Ye Lian simply took advantage of his shock when his movements were half a beat slow to fight back, and easily solved him.

Afterwards, Ye Lian got entangled with Tomioka Yoshiyong again, and it had to be said that Ye Lian, who was unarmed, could not give full play to his strengths against this kind of cold weapon.

Ye Lian narrowed his eyes slightly, if he could also get this kind of knife...

While he was thinking, Tomioka Yoshiyuki's blade was slanted towards his body, and Ye Lian quickly prepared to melt into sand to meet him.

But at this moment, the two people stopped their movements at the same time, and looked towards the shadow on one side in tacit understanding.

There, there was a vague shadow, only the snow-white fangs could be seen when he opened his mouth happily.

"I didn't expect to see three humans here. I'm so lucky."

"ghost!"

Tomioka Yoshiyuki frowned and revealed the identity of the shadow.

Ye Lian's eyes suddenly turned cold.

"Oh..." The ghost didn't answer Tomioka Yoshiyuki's words, but suddenly stared at Ye Lian suspiciously, and slowly took a step forward: "You... are not human, don't have the fragrance of human beings, but are not our kind ,What exactly is going on?"

Ye Lian looked at him indifferently, with thick hatred pouring out of his eyes.

found it!

This strange breath, this is a ghost! !

Suddenly, Ye Lian rushed out like a flash of light. The closer he got to the ghost, he noticed that there were no numbers in the ghost's eyes, and it was not the ghost that killed him.

But it doesn't matter, it doesn't prevent Ye Lian from wanting to kill him.

Immediately after, there seemed to be a series of hurried footsteps, and it seemed that Yoshiyuki Tomioka ran after him.

But Ye Lian couldn't care about him anymore, Ye Lian directly stretched out his sharp claws, and grabbed the heart of the ghost who was so close.

His speed was so fast that it was almost impossible to see clearly with the naked eye, and this ghost didn't seem to be very powerful. When he recovered, Ye Lian had already pierced the ghost's heart with one hand.

Pain caused the ghost to show an expression of disbelief, and his eyes widened in shock.

At this moment, Ye Lian seemed to think of himself and Kuroro in the past, wondering if the self who was attacked at that time also showed such unbelievable eyes.

It's just that Kurolo went from absolute trust to betrayal at that time, but this ghost has nothing to do with him at all.

Go back to nothingness, this place does not belong to you.

Ye Lian glanced at the ghost indifferently, then withdrew his palm without interest.

"Wait! Ghost's weakness is the neck! Not the heart!"

Suddenly, Tanjiro's voice belonged to Kamado Tanjirou echoed in his ears, Ye Lian was startled, and jumped to the side reflexively.

A sharp claw barely scratched the corner of his clothes, and almost pierced Ye Lian's chest.

"whispering sound."

Seeing that the plan was exposed, the ghost bit his tongue bitterly, and a fierce streak flashed across his eyes, and he wanted to attack Ye Lian again, but unfortunately, a flowing knife blade had already cut towards his neck.

Yoshioka Tomioka has been waiting for the opportunity, just like a mantis chasing a cicada and an oriole behind him, he can cut off the ghost's neck with one blow by taking advantage of the ghost's carelessness.

However, unexpectedly, this ghost was very familiar with the protection of the neck, and almost in the blink of an eye, it backed away strangely like a loach, dodging a blow.

Tomioka Giyuu chased after him and attacked fiercely, and Ye Lian also understood at this moment that attacking other parts of the ghost would be useless. He changed his original combat and instantly moved to Kamado Tanjiro's position, and forcefully snatched away the opponent's body. weapons.

"This one, let me use it first."

"Eh?! But it's mine!" At some point, the knife tightly held in his hand was taken away, Kamado Tanjiro stared blankly at his empty right hand, and hurriedly chased after Ye Lian in surprise.

Ye Lian maintained a ruthless attitude, completely ignoring his lines, and leaped towards the ghost again like lightning.

His eyes locked on the neck of the ghost who was entangled with Yoshiyuki Tomioka, he held the scabbard tightly with his right hand, lightly picked the handle with his thumb, and quickly pulled out the handle with his left hand, like a flash of light, the black blade reflected the coldness The light slashed towards the hard back of the neck.

"Uhhhh!"

The ghost only felt a chill in his neck, and his vision was turned upside down in an instant. He could even see his already stiff body. After a while, he realized the truth of what he had discovered.

He had his neck cut off!

He raised his head, and the blond non-human was looking down at him, and slowly put the blade back into the scabbard.

There was nothing but indifference and disgust towards him in those blue eyes.

He hated creatures called ghosts from the bottom of his heart.

"...Okay, that's amazing." Kamado Tanjirou watched all this in front of him, a flash of admiration flashed in his eyes.

An existence that is neither human nor ghost can use his knife so proficiently!And without training, he killed the ghost with one blow!

What kind of existence is this!

Tomioka Yoshiyuki also stopped at the same spot, and looked at Ye Lian with a thoughtful look. He didn't cut off the ghost's neck, but this person took a step ahead.

A strange and vigilant emotion rose in his heart, which made him feel a little anxious.

Ye Lian, who was watched by everyone, was studying the knife in his hand with his head down.

This knife is really unbelievable, the hardness design is very good, it feels extremely hard to attack ghosts with claws, but attacking ghosts with this knife is like cutting tofu, without any hindrance.

If he had this knife, the possibility of him being able to kill that ghost would be greatly increased.

well.

want to.

Ye Lian nodded slightly, holding the scabbard, and looked at Kamado Tanjiro seriously: "Let's make a price."

Kamado Tanjirou: "...Huh?"

Just after waking up from the emotion of admiration, he became confused: "What... does this mean?"

"Make a price." Ye Lian raised the knife that belonged to him in his hand, and said righteously: "I want to buy it, how much will you sell it to me?"

Kamado Tanjiro: "..."

ha? ? ? ?
