It seems that a new family has come to the mountain recently.

When Kamado Tanjiro returned home with the bamboo basket on his back, he heard his younger brother Kamado Takeo and Kamado discussing this matter in a low voice.He unloaded the things on his back, smiled and walked in the direction of his brothers.

"Takeo, Shigeru, what are you talking about?"

It was snowing heavily outside, and the wind was blowing straight into the collar and sleeves.Snowflakes fall on the skin and leave a small watermark after being melted by body heat.Kamado Tanjiro led Takeo and Shigeru back to the house holding each other.Mao was the first to speak, and he happily told his elder brother what he had encountered before.

"We are talking about the new sister and brother who came to the mountain recently! Brother Zhuxiong and I just ran into them when we went there to play! That sister also gave me and brother Zhuxiong special delicious snacks. There were other kids who asked us to bring some back."

"Did Takeo and Mao thank you properly?"

"Of course!"

"Brother, do we have neighbors?"

Shigeru asked, looking at Tanjirou with anticipation in his eyes.

Kamado Tanjiro and his family have always been the only ones on this mountain.After his father passed away, Kamado Tanjiro took over the task of supporting the family and continued to sell charcoal for a living.Although the place is a bit remote and it is inconvenient to go up and down the mountain, they never thought of moving away.

If the other party really decided to live here, it would be the first time they had neighbors.Although it is not a neighbor at all in terms of distance.

Tanjiro Kamado had met a young man in the woods not far away before, and he thought it was a samurai who passed by here unintentionally.Thinking about it now, I understand why the other party was holding a large bundle of wood at that time.

But this kind of thing is not up to Tanjirou Kamado, so he just rubbed the heads of his brothers.

"Do Shigeru and Takeo want to have a neighbor?"

"Uh-huh!"

The two little boys nodded in unison, like chickens pecking at rice.

"That sister, super-super-good-looking! So-so good-looking!"

Mao stretched out his arms and drew a big circle, and said excitedly.

"Brother Zhuxiong was dumbfounded when he saw him for the first time."

"Hey! Mao!"

Zhu Xiong, who was pointed out about his embarrassing things before, immediately called his brother, and stretched out his hand to tickle him.Mao giggled and hid around, and the two children ran into the main house fighting.Tanjiro Kamado followed behind them, smiling softly at the people in the house.

"Mom, Nezuko, I'm back."

"Welcome home, Tanjirou."

Mother Kui Zhi stood up and took the things in his hand.The younger sister Nezuko also raised her head, shifting her gaze from the clothes she was mending to her brother.

The little girl in a light pink kimono immediately smiled in surprise.

"elder brother!"

The other younger brothers and sisters also called out to him, and the older Hanako rushed to Tanjirou's side and hugged his waist.After the fight, Shigeru ran to the low table and beckoned Tanjiro to come over.

"Brother, come here quickly! This is the snack that the older sister gave us!"

"Does mom know about the newcomers on the mountain?"

Aoie nodded, and wiped the snowflakes from Tanjirou's hair with the overalls before speaking.

"I only found out after Takeo and Shigeru came back today. They seem to be a very easy-going family."

Tanjiro decided: "Then let's go visit the other party when you have time later."

"Brother— hurry up and have some snacks!" Hanako urged him, the snacks on the low table hadn't been opened yet, and it looked like they were waiting for him to come back before opening.

"Hey, my brother is here."

The smile on Tanjiro's face has not disappeared since he entered the house, the young boy looked at the lively family in the house with soft eyes.

Hope this winter will be fine too.

Igarashi Yaoyue didn't intend to stay here, but she underestimated the snowfall after winter.It's okay in town, everyone will spontaneously come out to clear the snow.However, in the remote wilderness, the snow is so thick that one foot can cover the knees.

Although Ibaraki Doji said that he could let the little onmyoji sit on his shoulders, he carried the other party on his way.But this proposal was rejected by Igarashi without hesitation.

As a person who will be an adult in less than a few months, even if she doesn't care much about other people's opinions, she still can't accept this kind of scene.Moreover, Ibaraki Doji himself is nearly 1.9 meters tall. If you sit on his shoulders, you can fully feel what it means to be slapped on the face by the cold wind.

So in the end she decided to stay here for a while, just as it was almost New Year's Eve.

Igarashi Yaoyue stood on tiptoe and hung the tied small door pine on the door.She took two steps back, looked at it carefully, and finally decided to call her shikigami to take a look.

She called out to the big monster who was stacking firewood next to her, "Ibaraki—come and help me see if this Kadomatsu is hanging crookedly."

Ibaraki Doji lazily raised his eyes to look this way, and threw the last bundle of firewood sticks into the built hut.This is the room dedicated to these things.

"No, it's fine."

Igarashi Yaoyue was wearing an azure furisode kimono, the sleeves were tied with a drawstring for the convenience of movement.The kimono was wrapped with a pure white cloak sewn with animal fur inside.His long, crow-blue hair fell behind him like a waterfall, and was tied with a red hair rope at the end.Become the most eye-catching color of the girl's whole body.

Igarashi Yaoyue is actually not very afraid of the cold, her own personality is very useful in this regard.It's just that the big monster who has become a habit of raising babies still subconsciously wraps his own onmyoji thickly.

"Okay, let's go in then."

A pot of red bean soup was always simmering on the stove in the house.The honey-soaked red beans are boiled until they are crushed, and the sweet smell fills the whole house.After Igarashi Yaoyue and Ibaraki Doji ate something, they took out the talisman paper and began to practice their own talisman.

The big monster propped his head, closed his eyes and rested his mind, not knowing what he was thinking.

The snow outside was still falling, as if there would never be a pause.

Yaoyue practiced for a while, put down the pen and paper, and rubbed her eyes.Due to the conditions, the light in the room is not very good. Writing and drawing in such light can easily cause eyestrain.

She thought for a while and said, "Ibaraki, I'll go for a walk."

Ibaraki Doji didn't open his eyes, but he responded.When he came here, he wandered around. The beasts threatened by the big monster's power had long since fled, so he wasn't too worried about whether the Onmyoji would be in danger if he went out alone.

Seeing that Ibaraki Doji agreed, Igarashi Yueyue got up and put the cloak hanging near the door back on his body.After tying up the tether, the fur collar of the cloak rubbed against his cheeks, it was soft, and it was the fur of an unknown animal.

She hasn't looked much around here yet.Since I came here, I have been busy repairing the house and preparing things for winter, and I just recently packed everything up.

The small animals on the mountain didn't seem to come out very often in winter. Igarashi invited Yueyue to walk all the way, and basically didn't meet any small living animals.Only the snow on the branches is getting thicker and thicker, and then shakes off when the branches finally bear the weight.

The girl's footsteps suddenly stopped, she looked at the snow under her feet, which was obviously thinner, and blinked.

Has anyone been here?

Igarashi Yaoyue squatted down and waved away the snow on the surface.It wasn't long before this layer of snow fell, so it didn't completely cover the previous traces.She stretched out her hand and pressed on the snow.

But this looks more like something has been dragged, or slipped.

She thought of the two children she met here before.The terrain here is not very flat, it is a steep slope, and it is easy to slide down after falling.

Igarashi invited Yue to decide to take a look.

Tanjiro Kamado looked up at the steep slope he slid down, and sighed.

Nezuko and mother must be getting worried.

But this steep slope is difficult to climb, and I don't know if there are other roads nearby.When he slid down, he tried his best to grab things like stones and branches beside him, but it was useless except to cut his palm.

"I have to go back quickly..."

Kamado Tanjirou half-kneeled on the ground, picking up things scattered on the ground.Next to it was a bamboo basket, which contained some ingredients he had bought when he went down the mountain.The weather has been getting colder and colder recently, and he originally planned to buy more things to go home so that he would not go out much for the next period of time.

However, on the way back, because he was too focused on the thoughts in his head, he accidentally stepped on the empty space, and just rolled all the way down.

"It's bad that the snow is too thick in winter. It's hard to tell if there's solid ground underneath."

If only someone had...

At first, it was just out of worry, until I walked all the way and saw the red blood on the dead branches, Igarashi Yaoyue became more and more sure of his guess - someone must have accidentally fallen from here.

She lifted the hem of her cloak carefully, so as not to follow the other's old path.

The girl helped the old dead tree beside her, and finally stopped in front of the steepest slope.If you go further down, then I can only let Ibaraki Doji come over to catch people.Igarashi invited Yue to look down, and as expected, he saw a boy squatting in the snow picking up things.The other party's half-length red hair was tied into a ponytail behind his head.He couldn't see his face clearly because his head was down.

It should be the child of the Zaomen family, the redhead mentioned, and this family is the only one nearby.

Igarashi Yaoyue thought about it, and said, "That kid, are you okay?"

! !There are people!Could it be that the gods heard his prayer!

Kamado Tanjirou raised his head in surprise.

The beautiful girl stood in the snow, her pure white cloak blending into the snowy sky.Black hair with a strange color fell from her side as she bent over.A few snowflakes landed on her eyelashes, reflecting on her light-colored pupils. At first glance, she immediately gave birth to an ethereal feeling that did not belong to humans.But Kamado Tanjiro soon smelled the human breath on the other party.

This lady should be the neighbor that Takeo and the others mentioned.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

ah!You have to answer quickly, or you'll be rude!

Zaomen Tanjiro wiped his face quickly, and said vigorously: "I'm fine, but can you please find the Zaomen's family on the mountainside? Just say that Zaomen Tanjiro needs help."

Igarashi Yaoyue took a brief glance, and had a preliminary understanding of Kamado Tanjiro's situation.

"Please wait."

Fortunately, he brought some talismans with him when he came out.

She took out a few pieces of talisman paper in the shape of a villain, and opened her hands.The moment the talisman paper fluttered to the ground, it stood firmly on the snow and became agile in an instant.

Igarashi Yaoyue squatted down, and lightly tapped the head of one of the paper figurines with his fingers.

"Can I ask you to help bring the child up there?"

The little paper man hugged her fingers and rubbed them, then nodded.The little paper figurines looked at each other, floated up into the air, and flew towards Zamon Tanjiro down the steep slope.

These little paper figurines are actually nearby mountain spirits and wandering spirits, most of them are children at heart.They have no entity, so they can only touch foreign objects with the help of the onmyoji's talisman paper.

Zamon Tanjiro didn't see Igarashi Yaoyue's movements clearly, he only saw a few little paper figurines flying towards him behind the lady squatting down.One of them circled around him twice, and then commanded the other little paper figurines arrogantly.

"This this?!"

His eyes widened in surprise.

A little paper figurine picked up his bamboo basket, which was a bit heavy for Tanjiro, but it lifted it lightly like this.The rest fell on him, grabbed the boy's clothes, and flew him up the steep slope.

Until he stepped on the ground, Kamado Tanjiro still didn't recover from the shock just now.

"Thank you, you can come to my house to play when you have nothing to do."

Igarashi invites Yue to take back the paper figurines and send these kind-hearted little spirits away.Seeing Tanjiro Kamado still looked surprised, she stretched out her hand and waved it in front of his eyes.

Only then did Kamado Tanjiro come back to his senses, and he quickly bowed: "Thank you so much for your help!"

"It's okay, it's just a little trick." Igarashi Yaoyue shook his head. "You are a child of the Zaomen family, is the injury on your hand alright?"

"Ah, this, it's just a small injury, it will be fine soon!"

Igarashi Yaoyue cast a disapproving look: "Even if this is the case, your family members will be worried after seeing it. How about this, you go to my house to treat the wound first, and then I will send you back."

She had known the Zaomen family before when she was shopping in the town at the foot of the mountain. This child should be the eldest son of their family, and she is said to be very responsible.But this can't hide the fact that the other party is just an 11-year-old child.

Paper figurines are essential helpers at home

Igarashi Yaoyue once made equipment in the studio and needed to leave halfway

Just let the little paper man do some simple work for yourself

As a result, a student from class A of the hero department slipped over in the middle of the night

I saw a pale little paper man that could move by itself

The little paper figurine smiled sinisterly at him (subjective perspective)

I was so scared that I rolled my eyes and passed out
