[Lord Demon Slayer: Hiiragi of Kuhara]

==============================

In the deep mountains, the melodious sound of the ocarina sounded.

Jiuyuan Hiiragi, who lives in the village of swordsmiths, sat on a branch with his back against the trunk, and tapped the hole of the ocarina with his fingertips. He looked at the mottled beam of light cast by the gap between the trees, and was a little absent-minded.

That day in the courtyard, after hearing Yoya Yashiki's plan, he couldn't help but refute.

"My lord," he looked at the young man who was still as gentle and gentle as the spring breeze in front of him. He obviously didn't change much from his memory, but he felt like he was seeing this person for the first time, and he hesitated to speak, "Excuse me Frankly speaking, such a plan is really, this is simply beyond my comprehension."

He was going to say 'this is crazy. 'But because it was too impolite, the reason still in his mind made him swallow the words back.

"Really?" Yuya Ubuyashiki said, "Then do you think it will be successful?"

Will it be successful...

Kuhara Hiiragi thought about it, and after calming down a little, he was surprised to realize that the plan was not as absurd as he thought.

Instead, it's perfectly implementable.

"As long as you are well prepared, there will be no mistakes." The lord said, "I have told you all the details, you just need to stick to this plan until the last moment. Now there is one problem left. Power, how long do you think it will last?"

Jiuyuan Hiiragi thought for a while: "I can't be sure, but judging from the past invasion speed, even if he gets the Xiangshu, it will take at least a year to fully grasp it."

One year is enough time for preparations, does the lord even count this?While feeling relieved, Kuhara Hiiragi couldn't help being surprised again.

"So this is not an absurd statement. In the final analysis, the plan itself is just a small node in the long battle against Onimai Tsujimu for thousands of years," Seeing his unbelievable expression, Miyaya Shiki said, "But as long as Success, this node may become the key to counterattack."

"Hiragi, the decision is in your hands."

With a bang, the sound of the flute was out of tune.

Ahh, wrong again.

Kuhara Hiiragi put down the round ocarina with the pattern of wisteria flowers in his hand, which he just bought not long ago, because it reminded him of his friend.

"You have to have some hobbies in life. Why don't you try playing the ocarina? You play the flute and I play the piano. This is called Qinse and Ming... Keke is not the right word." My friend laughed awkwardly, "In short Would you like to try it?"

"No, waste of time."

Of course, he refused without thinking, but he didn't expect to pick it up in this life.Kuhara Hiiragi was a little disappointed, and brought the ocarina to his mouth again, and was about to play it when he heard a voice suddenly coming from under the tree.

"You are here."

The voice was deep and low, as if from hell.

The ocarina made a broken and piercing protest sound, resounding through the mountains and forests, startling many birds.

With trembling hands, Kuhara Hiiragi silently put away the flute, looked down with vigilant eyes, and met a fire man mask.

"Hello." He thought for a while, and tried his best to be polite and sincere, "Master Tiedi Heyuan Zhentie, the village chief, asked me to wait for you here. I have some ideas about weapons..."

"I said, have you received my letter?" Iron Tomb interrupted him.

"..."

Sure enough, I still can't escape.

Kuhara Hiiragi remembered the threatening letter full of curse words that he received from Xinya before coming to the village of swordsmiths, and nodded resignedly.

"Got it, it's easy to handle." Steel Zhong pulled out a kitchen knife from behind, and the flickering cold light made one wonder whether this thing could be used for cooking—it was so sharp that it might cut through the chopping board directly, "It seems You came here because you made up your mind."

"I'm very sorry." Kuhara Hiiragi still sat motionless on the tree, "But my Japanese sword has been thrown on the mountain, and there is really no way to eat it."

"It's okay, I can get you a few more." Steel Tomb said, putting his foot on the tree, "Get down for me!"

Why is the number still rising?

"I need to create a weapon that contains Orangutan Crimson Sand Iron. It is said that a swordsman has recently used a sun wheel knife that is as soft as a long whip. I would like to ask whether the same material can be added to the palm cover or other weapons."

"Come down!"

"Then, my lord has already greeted the village head, I have some things that need to be made of ordinary steel, and I need the assistance of you and other swordsmiths."

"Are you looking for trouble, you brat? Come down quickly!"

Hearing the overwhelmed sound of the trees, Kuhara Hiiragi thought for a while, and took out a few blueprints from under Haori.

"Please take a look, this is what I need to build."

His subordinates used some internal strength, and originally wanted to throw it directly into the man's hand, but when the wind blew, the blueprint slapped on the mouth of the Iron Tomb Fire Man's mask.

For a moment the air fell into a deathly silence.

"...Sorry." Kuhara Hiiragi felt that he was done.

"It doesn't matter," Iron Tomb said, with veins on his hands, he took the drawing off the mask tremblingly, "After all, there is nothing I can do to kill you."

He raised the kitchen knife as if he was about to throw it directly at Jiuyuan Hiiragi, but suddenly caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of his eye, paused, and brought the blueprint in the other hand to his eyes.

"This is?"

Different from the rudeness just now, he unfolded the blueprint carefully with his hands. Looking at the delicate and ingenious design on it, fortunately, the hole he poked just now was not big, and it happened to avoid the important point on the blueprint.

"Where did you get this thing?" The brows under the Iron Tomb's mask frowned, "This forging technology is not something that a young man like you can come up with."

"...Sorry, I can't say." Kuhara Hiiragi said, "Just like the swordsmith's village needs to be hidden, I can't disclose the location and news there."

The blueprints he brought were all drawn by himself, and they were learned from the martial arts schools of the previous life, especially Zhujian Villa and Fulong Altar, and these two schools no longer exist in this world. It is better not to talk about it in the first place than to investigate in vain.

"Forget it," Iron Tomb shook his head and stopped pursuing, "So what exactly is this?"

It seems to be some kind of mechanism used to restrain large creatures, interlocking, and the design ideas in it can be described as exquisite.

"This is Taishan lock." Seeing that the anger of the steel mound seems to subside, Kuhara Hiiragi breathed a sigh of relief, "It consists of [-] parts, and I have given you all the drawings. Can it be made?"

After all, he is a knife forging master, and it is possible that he is not good at forging other things.

As soon as the words fell, a kitchen knife whizzed past his face in the next second, piercing the wood with a bang.

"Are you underestimating me?"

"……no."

It was great to be able to make it, and he was thinking about whether he would have to fight the iron himself.In his previous life, when he was practicing at Forging Sword Villa, he also learned a lot of forging techniques in order to prevent lack of weapons on the road.

Jiuyuan Hiiragi jumped off the tree, took out another stack of design drawings, and handed it to the steel mound: "There are also these, which can also be made of ordinary steel."

"There are hidden weapons and chains. What are you doing here?" Iron Tomb looked at the blueprint he handed over, and couldn't help feeling puzzled. Although the weapon of a ghost swordsman is not necessarily a sword, it needs so many things at the same time...

"When it's finished, the grass on your grave will be three meters high."

"No, except for the palm cover, other things just need to be made within one year." Kuhara Hiiragi said, "My lord should have already contacted the village chief, so don't worry about manpower."

Steel Zhong nodded, and stuffed the blueprint into his arms, "Okay, I've said enough, if you have anything else, you can tell others, and don't come to me."

"Please, thank you very much."

"Next time you break the weapon I made, you will die ten thousand times."

"……Yes."

Kuhara Hiiragi looked at the back of him leaving in a hurry, and for some reason suddenly had an idea. ——Mr. Steelzuka, are you really happy to see these blueprints?

I was in such a good mood that I actually had a normal conversation with myself.

Of course, he only dared to think about this in his mind, and it was impossible to say it.

Fortunately, Inosuke didn't follow. Although the child seemed not afraid of anything, he was actually quite timid. If he saw the steel mound just now, he might be scared out of his mind.

He only regrets that he failed to learn how to make other things. If those ingenious things can be made by these knife smiths, they will definitely exert a huge power beyond imagination.

Walking on the way to the residence, Kuhara Hiiragi was thinking about what to do in the few days waiting for the weapon to be forged.

idle.

He looked at the clouds in the sky and felt a sudden emptiness.

The wounds on his body were almost healed before, but he didn't have any weapons at hand, no need to practice knives, no need to kill ghosts, and no need to teach Inosuke, so he really didn't know what to do.

He took out the ocarina, remembering that some schools in the past could kill people with the sound of the zither, so he tried to inject internal energy into it while blowing the ocarina.

"—!"

The ocarina made a louder sound than before, but it didn't seem to be very effective, and it was such a musical instrument not much bigger than an egg, but both hands were needed to play it, so forget it.

"Be careful……"

Maybe he can try to smelt something later, but he doesn't know if those swordsmiths will allow him to approach the forging site. If possible, he wants to make something similar to Huanglongmuyuan.

"be careful!"

"?"

Hearing the cry of a child from the side, Jiuyuan Hiiragi turned his head, and then saw a human-shaped thing with six arms suddenly stepping out of the forest, with a knife in each arm, with an astonishing momentum .

"This is...!" He opened his eyes wide.

On the other side, the child wearing the fire man mask almost screamed.

Ruined.

Seeing Yuan Yi Zero style slashing at the unarmed Ghost Slayer Squadron, the five-year-old Xiao Tie almost couldn't bear to close his eyes. He felt that today he could be said to be extremely unlucky.

His father was seriously ill and was unable to repair the mechanism doll, so he ran out secretly to try to adjust the mechanism of the doll for his father. He had seen it many times and thought there would be nothing wrong, but he turned it on with a key , Before I figured out what to do, a ghost slayer who happened to pass by walked into its attack range, and I don't know why it was judged as an enemy.

The dolls used for training have no emotions, and if they feel vindictiveness and hostility, they will kill anyone they see.

I really don't have any talent for trimming dolls.

Xiao Tie regretted so much in his heart, but the scream that he expected in his heart did not resound.

"Hide, hide away?"

Wudang Sect - Swimming Body Baguazhang.

Coincidentally, Kuhara Hiiragi, who came within the attack range, did not have a weapon in his hands, so he could only use this kind of self-defense skills to avoid the enemy without stopping, keeping his palms on his body, and changing as he walked.

More importantly, for some reason he didn't want to destroy the doll.

"How to make it stop?" The puppet was a little too strong, and Jiuyuan Hiiragi, who was struggling to hide, quickly asked the frightened child beside him.

"what?"

"I said this Tianshu mystery, how should I stop it?"

"What is the mystery of Tianshu! This is the Yuanyi zero style!" The child who was still trembling just now clenched his fists in protest.

"..."

That's not the point.Kuhara Hiiragi thought to himself.

The author has something to say:

I don't know if this chapter will be released or when the last chapter will be released.

The last chapter has been placed in the lofter, just search for the tag Kuhara no Hiiragi.

It will also be updated there in the future.In addition, there will be no manuscript deposit box in the future, so the time will become a little irregular.

Next, I want to speed up the progress a little bit.
