[Demon Slayer: The Gentle Man]

"Have you heard that a thing that is more terrifying than evil ghosts appeared near the village? It is extremely vicious and feeds on ghosts!" "Really? It even eats ghosts, and maybe it can also eat people." Be careful, it's really scary."

The women who were chatting sloppily did not notice the white-haired man walking past them. After hearing what they said, they paused and set off for the outside of the village.

Jin Mu quickly shuttled through the forest, looking for the evil spirits who avoided the sunlight and hid in dark corners.

However, whether they are avoided or not, the impact is not great.What Kaneki is best at is picking out ghosts with a smell that makes him sick from the darkness, and then chop off their heads and let them turn into ashes.

"It's in the mountains ahead." Jinmu's Raven gave a definite location, urging him to hurry up and find the seriously injured team members who couldn't move.Because of the evil spirits in the mountains, the hidden members can only wait in the village for the team members who have the ability to kill the evil spirits to come.

By the time Kaneki found the seriously injured Immortal Chuan Xuanya, his body was already red with burns, and the wounds on his body were also inflamed.

When Kaneki walked to his side, Genya Kawami suddenly opened his eyes, and raised the weapon in his hand reflexively. When he saw the uniform of the Demon Slayer Squad on the person who came, he let down his guard, but he was still vigilant. Staring at Jinmu.

"Immortal Chuan Xuanya, Aoi-class soldier. You have a fever, and your wound is difficult to treat. You need to go to the village for treatment. When your physical condition is a little bit stable, I will take you back to the Butterfly House for further treatment."

Knowing that he would not stay in the village for a long time, Immortal Chuan Xuanya did not show too much resistance.

Kaneki picked him up and followed the flight path of the raven, and it didn't take long for him to find Yin's member.

Immortal Chuan Xuanya's wound needs rest, and the stitching of the wound cannot be done in the wild.Yin's members said not to worry, there are rattan houses in the village, and there are more than one.

They chose the rattan house closest to the outskirts of the village.Kaneki did not intervene in the highly professional work of treating wounds.He patrolled around the village to make sure there were no ghosts around the village.His letter crow brought new mission instructions, "Go to the north of Natian Yamashita Town, North of Nata Yamashita Town, a large number of humans are missing."

Without further ado, Kaneki and Yin's members greeted each other, and took advantage of the night to head to Nata Yamashita Town.

Jinmu's journey was fast, and he didn't encounter any troublesome ghosts on the way to Natian, and he arrived at the destination very quickly.

It was completely different from what he expected.People living in Yamashita Town don't seem to be aware of the presence of evil spirits. All their attention is on the upcoming shrine festival.

Facing the foreigner dressed in black and pale, they did not show obvious rejection.There were even bold children who ran over and asked him, "Big Brother, where are you from? Are you also here to participate in the festival?" Kaneki nodded, and the child got a response, and happily directed at his Friends wave.The children rushed up, surrounded Kaneki, and asked him in one go, "Is the elder brother a warrior?" "Idiot! The elder brother is a traveler! Maybe he is a poet!" Don't come to my house to play? My mother's cooking is delicious!"

Kaneki had a headache, the kindness emanating from the children made him feel very comfortable, but a little too enthusiastic.

Moreover, he looked at the adults around him, they didn't seem to worry that he was a bad person who abducted children, and all of them had smiles on their faces.

The almost identical smile made Kaneki subconsciously alert.

No, there is one difference.

There was a little boy who was hiding behind a tree far away, with only half of his head sticking out, and there seemed to be scars on his face.

Jin Mu leaned down, agreed to the invitation of the child who said that his mother's cooking was delicious, and was going to visit his house.

He noticed that after he said yes to the kid's invitation, the other kids glared at the kid and seemed a little annoyed.

And the little boy behind the tree had already run away quickly.

After following the child back to his house, Kaneki smelled a lot of people.Even though there were only five members in the children's family, they offered good meals with great enthusiasm.Kaneki didn't make a sound, and quietly ate food that was even more unpalatable to him than rotten stinky fish.

That night, except for the two children, the couple and the half-grown boy took out the rope, tied up the golden wood, and threw it into the cellar.

Kaneki opened his eyes, and the pungent smell came over his face.There were several unidentified people lying on the ground, except for a few people in shabby clothes who looked like they had escaped from a disaster, and two low-level soldiers.They were all tied up with thick hemp rope.

The two team members did not seem to be in danger of life, but their bodies were relatively weak, and they probably hadn't eaten for a while.

The moment they saw Kaneki, the eyes of the two soldiers lit up.The strongest combat power below the pillar is not just talk.

After Kaneki untied the two soldiers, he took out two rice balls from his arms.While the family wasn't paying attention, he took out some food from the kitchen. "Thank you, Mr. Kaneki!" The two team members almost had tears in their eyes, holding the rice balls, chewing carefully for a long time before swallowing them slowly.

"The people in this village believe in the mountain god here. The mountain god gave them an oracle. Whoever enshrines the most people into the mountain will have endless prosperity and wealth. They also said that the current weather is good. It was brought to them by the mountain god, so they are very grateful and willing to cooperate with the oracle of the mountain god."

There is no doubt that the so-called mountain gods must be ghosts in rituals that require human sacrifices.Moreover, it is definitely the powerful twelve ghost moons, but the specific ranking is not known for the time being.

"Crack." Someone pushed the stone slab above the cellar away.Kaneki smelled something familiar.

A small head poked out, and saw that Jinmu was awake, he gave a soft "shh", and threw down a rope, signaling Jinmu to climb out quickly.

Kaneki thought for a while, and quickly retrieved the child's name from his memory.

"Kenjiro?" Kenjiro was a little shocked that Kaneki still remembered him.But he didn't speak. Instead, he looked around vigilantly and listened carefully to see if the snoring in the bedroom was still ringing.

Kenjiro breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the snoring sound of the master.Prepare to let Kaneki climb out quickly.

A cold hand rested on his shoulder, and Kenjiro slowly turned his head.Looking down the arm, the hostess looked down at him, with a smile on her mouth, "Hello."

A gust of wind swept out the stench in the cellar, choking the hostess to tears.A knife with a dark red glow lay across the neck of the hostess, and the owner of the knife held Kenjiro in his arms, with an evil smile on his lips, "Hello."
