Crimson Blade

With the passage of time, summer has come. At this moment, the sun is burning like fire, and the cicadas are constantly singing in the forest.

The shadows of the trees were mottled, and the stronger Himura Ren was wearing a thin black kimono, with a tachi pinned to his right side, his body bowed slightly as if he was about to draw a sword, and his whole body was tense and motionless.

A high-temperature breeze blew through the forest. At that moment, Fei Cunren's breathing became long and light, and his left hand also moved suddenly at this moment.

The scarlet single ponytail raised a beautiful arc in the air, and the boy in black kimono stared sharply ahead, the knife in his hand was out of its sheath, and the sound of the knife's cry suddenly appeared in this quiet forest.

Heart, larynx, back of the head, cervical spine, underarms, abdomen, kidneys, coccyx, temples.

As if there was a real opponent in front of him, the knife in Fei Cunren's hand accurately slashed at nine vulnerable parts of the human body illusion, and nine silver lights flashed past.

Flying Sword Style · Nine-headed Dragon Flash

"Whoo~"

The leaves in the forest were rustling due to the strong wind brought by the knife, Himura Ren sighed and put the knife back into the sheath.

The scene just now was very shocking in the eyes of others, but only Fei Cunren knew that he still failed.

Because after he slashed the fourth knife, his breathing with a special rhythm became chaotic.

Under Fei Cunren's deliberate training these days, this situation should not have happened, but Nine-headed Dragon Flash still failed.

Sure enough, there are still restrictions? Is it because I have only studied a part of that kind of breathing? Himura Ken is playing with his own sword in his hand, with a thoughtful expression on his face.

Or... just breathing isn't enough?

It seems that I should also go down the mountain to travel. It is not a good idea to keep working behind closed doors.

It's just how to tell Tanjuro and Aoizhi about this matter, Himura Ren is a little undecided with the newly broken grass root in his mouth.

"So you want to look elsewhere?"

At the gate of Zaomen's house, Tanjuro, who was dressed in orange and black checked haori, was chopping firewood with an ax in his hand, and said in a calm tone:

"It's good to go out and see for yourself, Kuizhi and I don't have to worry too much about your words."

After learning the news that Himura Ren wanted to leave, Tanjuro's attitude was completely different from Himura Ren's. He was not reluctant but even supported him.

"But when do you plan to leave?" He asked after throwing the firewood into the basket.

Seeing Tanjuro's indifferent appearance, Himura Ren felt a little embarrassed, and he unconsciously blinked quickly and replied obediently: "The sooner the better..."

"I don't plan to go out for too long, maybe a month or two, and try to come back to help Aunt Kuizhi when she gives birth."

"Cough, is that so?" Tanjuro patted the dust off his body, paused and then replied, "Then ask Aoi Zhi to prepare some dry food for you~"

"Ahem, and don't walk around at night when you are outside."

"Eh?"

Tanjuro's sudden words made Himuraba very puzzled, and he suddenly remembered that the girl who took his wine last time also warned him in the same way.

Is there any mystery in this?

Casually sticking the ax into the firewood pile, and seeing the obvious confusion on Himura Ren's face, Tanjuro hesitated for a moment and said bluntly, "Because there will be evil spirits haunting the night, ahem...it's very dangerous."

"Evil ghost?"

There really is such a thing, Tanjuro's words made Himura Ren's heart shudder, and at the same time, even greater confusion arose in his heart.

"There are really evil spirits. What do those evil spirits look like? Why do they only appear at night?"

"Those ghosts usually look no different from people, ahem, but cannibals are afraid of the sun."

Tanjuro coughed and waved his hands to answer, then he hurriedly said as if he was afraid of Himura Ren asking some questions:

"I don't know much else, I only know that the sun and the special blade can make them disappear."

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Ashes gone...

Ah, how does Uncle Tanjuro even know how the evil spirit died?

Himura Baba, who remembered the ashes in the forest at that moment, looked at Tanjuro's sickly look suspiciously, but finally felt that it was impossible.

It shouldn't be Uncle Zaomen, besides, I haven't seen a knife in Zaomen's house?

"In short, it's best not to meet evil spirits. Even if you do, you can wait until the sun appears, or run faster."

Seeing Himurabane's increasingly wrong gaze, Tanjuro coughed a few times in shock, then turned sideways guiltily to add something.

"I see!"

Although he still had doubts in his heart, Fei Cunren didn't investigate it further. First, the possibility was not high, and second, if it was what he thought, then the Zaomen family would be safe.

However, both Tanjuro and Himuraba obviously did not realize that there was a huge loophole in their conversation.

After encountering a ghost, can ordinary people really run away by running on their legs? They also said that they dragged the ghost until dawn, but the two people who were talking at the moment didn't realize this.

One is the subconscious contempt of ordinary evil ghosts by a peerless master who has cut down countless ghosts and lived in seclusion all day long, and the other is a purely bold and fearless guy who is fully confident in his abilities.

As long as the sun appears, then I should be able to handle it, someone thought calmly.

So, such an important loophole was so gorgeously ignored by the two.

"Hey, are you going on a trip?"

Unlike Tanjuro's calmness, Aoizhi's reaction upon hearing the news was more like an ordinary person.

"Why, really, what is there to travel outside!"

Aoizhi's complaints and thoughts echoed in the room, but Himura Ren went in from one ear to the other, and even secretly ravaged Tanjiro's hair by virtue of his height advantage.

The smaller Nezuko blinked her big pink eyes to see the play of the two elder brothers, and suddenly clapped her hands together and giggled, her soft white hands took advantage of Feicun Ren's carelessness and grabbed him That brightly colored single ponytail.

"Hiss~" Someone who was obsessed with stroking Kotanjirou's hair let out a cry of pain.

"Haha... cough cough cough!"

Tanjuro, who was standing aside and watching the children's interaction, smiled and let out an earth-shattering cough as if some mechanism was triggered by a breath of air.

The next morning, in order to make the brief parting less sad, Fei Cunren took his luggage and planned to sneak away while the sky was getting bright.

But what he didn't know was that as early as he got up and stepped out of the door, Tanjuro was standing at the blind corner of the window in an orange-black checked haori, watching him go away.

Change the dividing line of the map—————

Sakata City is an extremely prosperous city, the yelling of vendors on the street is intertwined with the smell of rouge, and there is also the roar of green leather trains next to it, and black smoke billows into the sky.

The timeline of this world seems to be a few years behind my last world.

Fei Cunren, who had just arrived in this city, looked around with great interest and compared the differences between the two worlds with his luggage on his back, but the next second he was attracted by a loud noise.

This is, the girl I met a few months ago?

"Tell me, how do you plan to pay for the damage you just knocked off all my things?" A group of mean-spirited teenagers gathered around the girl with long black hair wearing a butterfly feather weave and wanted to get compensation in a bad tone.

"Don't say you can't afford anything..."

This is obviously because they think that the little girl is easy to deceive, and they are specially colluding with good scams.

Walking slowly to the periphery and standing five meters behind Kanae, Himura Ren watched the gangsters' skillful extortion and mourned for them for a second in his heart.

Although the girl seemed to be in a weak position, Himura Ren was not really fooled by her appearance, he had spotted the slender cloth pouch on the girl's back early in the morning.

It can only be said that those bastards were really unlucky for eight lifetimes.

Just when Himura Ren was feeling emotional with a wait-and-see attitude, Butterfly Kanae, who was surrounded by gangsters, moved with a sweet smile.

She stretched out her hand and gently grabbed the gangster's wrist in front of her. She smiled and then yanked hard. At the same time, she took a step forward at a very fast speed, and then bent her knees and pressed heavily against the gangster's stomach.

"vomit!"

Before the victimized gangster had time to recover from Kanae's sweet smile, he knelt on the ground with his face twisted and his stomach covered, and it didn't take long for his remaining brothers to gain the same treatment.

Just when Fei Cunren thought this farce was over, unexpectedly, there was another extremely brave man who stood up tremblingly, took out a kitchen knife with a grim expression, and slammed a knife at Kanae rush.

It's just that in the face of such an attack full of loopholes, Kanae, who has a keen sense, dodged the attack by turning sideways, but this man did not take the usual path, and rushed too hard to stop the car and rushed towards the crowd with a knife.

But at this moment, Kanae was too late to stop because of her slow dodging...

Seeing the gangster waving a knife indiscriminately, and looking at the panicked crowd around him, Himuraba sighed, stepped forward resignedly, crossed his hands and set up a cross to hold the gangster's erratic waving hands .

Finding that he didn't hurt Kanae, and was held up by a child who looked younger, the little bastard was so angry that he pulled his hand and continued to attack.

However, Himura Ren would not give him this chance, and Kanae, who had reacted, would not give him this chance either.

"Crack!"

"Oh!"

So at the same time, the hand joints of this unlucky little bastard were hit hard by Himura Ren's backhand, and his leg joints were also kicked strangely by Kanae behind him.

The little gangster fell to the ground smoothly, while Himura Ren, who was blinking innocently, and Kanae, who was full of surprise, looked at each other behind the uncovered object.

Completely Misguided·Himura Blade·Full of Confidence: I understand, I understand~

Faced with self-healing max, strange blood ghosts, evil spirits whose strength and speed are not human...

Looking at the bladeless long knife in his hand, and then at the ineffective breathing method, Fei Cunren wanted to cry without tears: It's not terrible to say yes, but easy to say yes?
