[Demon Slayer: The Gentle Man]

Equivalent to Zhu's status, not inferior to other Zhu's strength at all, so Jin Mu's treatment in the Ghost Killing Team is basically the same as other Zhu's.

The mansions in the jurisdiction, as well as the residences near the Sanyashiki mansion, are specially cleaned.

Nezuko was sitting in a room covered by thick curtains, through the window, she could clearly see her brother and Kaneki.Although it was a bit boring, the hot sun outside stopped her from wanting to go out.

Tanjiro held the Hikari Saber tightly, closed his eyes tightly, and fully focused on the Changzhong breathing method, and the old monk stood in front of Kaneki as if he had entered samadhi.Kaneki stood there calmly with a wooden knife in his hand, and didn't seem to care much about the possible battle that would happen next.

"Huh—" Tanjiro moved, jumped up like lightning, and slashed vigorously at Kaneki's right arm, a blue light flowed from the blade, and the sharp dragon teeth bit at Kaneki's shoulder.

A sudden pain hit Tanjiro's abdomen, Tanjiro reacted quickly, twisted his waist, avoided the wooden knife, and changed the trajectory with the offensive, and cut directly at Kaneki's neck.

"It's too slow, and the attack power is not enough." Kaneki didn't dodge, his Kazuko firmly stuck Tanjiro's knife, and the seemingly powerful attack only cut through Kazuko's skin, not even a centimeter. Can cut in.

Tanjiro withdrew his Japanese sword, "Mr. Kaneki is really strong, it seems that I have to work hard!" After finishing speaking, he had a bright smile on his face, which was as dazzling as the sun hanging high in the sky. Comparing with each other, Kaneki squinted his eyes slightly, and looked up at the blue sky that seemed to have been washed by water.

After a long while, Kaneki lowered his head, "Tanjiro, if you really want to become stronger, just follow the method I told you." Tanjiro answered loudly without doubting him, "Yes!"

In the days that followed, Tanjiro lived a miserable life.

The light spruce wood box was replaced with the strongest and heaviest hemlock box. It was very difficult for Tanjiro to carry it when the box was empty, let alone Nezuko who needed to hide from the sun in the box.

In the beginning, there were only boxes.Later, under the guidance of Kaneki, Tanjiro tied weights to his ankles and wrists. Every day, he carried a hemlock box, tied a weight made of stones, ran and swung a knife.

I have never experienced so much physical energy being consumed when not fighting with ghosts. Tanjiro almost broke through his physical upper limit. When he ran to the last stage, his steps were drifting, and he still gritted his teeth and insisted on finishing the run.

At the end of the first day of training, Tanjiro collapsed on the ground as if he had been fished out of the water, his whole body was sore and weak.Jin Mu helped him up and led him around, "After strenuous exercise, you can't just lie down and rest, you have to walk around, otherwise tomorrow you will be so sore that you won't be able to get up."

The steps under his feet were floating, his mood was floating like a feather, and the faint fragrance of wisteria flowers wafted from Jin Mu who supported him.Tanjiro took a deep breath, stepped on his feet harder, and tried his best to recover his strength as soon as possible.

When night fell, they finished their dinner, Kaneki took Tanjiro out the door with toiletries in hand, and Nezuko obediently followed behind the two of them.

When Jin Mu first came here, he knew that there were hot springs in the village.The villagers had taken him there, and it was a good place for Tanjiro to take a bath now that his muscles were sore.

Not long after walking, Tanjiro smelled the smell of sulfur, his eyes lit up all of a sudden, then dimmed suddenly. "I haven't been in a hot spring for a long time. When I was a child, my parents took me and Nezuko to soak in a hot spring, but I never had the chance to go there." Nezuko seemed to feel Tanjiro's sadness, and held his hand tightly. Hold on, the big pink eyes are full of concern for his brother.

The night wind blows gently, gently stroking the hair of the Zaomen brothers and sisters, like a mother, hugging the two brothers and sisters in their arms, coaxing them softly.

Kaneki stepped forward and hugged the two of them, "You still have me, I promised Aoie Mama to take good care of you." Tanjiro nodded, and withdrew from his arms with red eyes, "Thank you , Jinmu."

There are two pools for bathing, next to each other, and Nezuko splashes happily in one of the smaller pools, looking very happy.Tanjiro and Kaneki were in the larger pool. In order to prevent Tanjiro from getting dizzy after soaking for too long, Kaneki sat next to Tanjiro.What he didn't know was what kind of spiritual earthquake Tanjiro had just experienced, who was motionless beside him.

When he first entered the water, Tanjiro felt that his whole body was wrapped in warm hot spring water and felt very comfortable, and he didn't want to move at all while sitting there.When Kaneki walked over, he was completely stunned. The young man who was a few years older than himself only had a bath towel around his waist, and his body that was usually covered by clothes was imprinted in his eyes so defenselessly.

Slender neck, delicate collarbone, solid and powerful arms, neat eight-pack abdominal muscles embedded in the abdomen, and as Kaneki walked, there were two sexy-looking lines under the abdominal muscles that extended to the bed of the towel. covered place.Under the bath towel, the smooth and beautiful legs touched his heart, disturbing the rhythm of his heartbeat.

Tanjiro thought of the beautiful scenery he had just seen, and the organ in his chest couldn't stand it and started beating wildly, "Boom boom boom boom", his heartbeat was deafening like a beating drum.Tanjiro's face became more and more red, his mind was dizzy, he looked at Kaneki through the lingering water mist, hey, is it an illusion?Why did you see Mr. Kaneki smiling?

A warm hand wrapped around his waist, and another wrapped around the crook of his leg, lifting him from the hot spring pool.

The cool wind blows away some of the sulfur smell, Tanjiro wakes up a bit, his face turns redder, and he blames himself secretly for forgetting to soak in the hot spring for too long.

Kaneki put him next to the hot spring pool and wrapped him in a bath towel, "Just after soaking in the hot spring, don't be blown by the wind, you'll catch a cold." Tanjiro nodded vigorously, wiped off the water on his body, and put on his yukata.

After returning home, the moon was already high above the treetops, and Nezuko and Tanjiro helped Kaneki lay out the futon.After the lights were turned off, Tanjiro lay under the blanket, feeling sore from his limbs and bones, he gritted his teeth patiently, and kept comforting himself, this is the price you need to pay for becoming stronger.

A pair of warm hands reached into Tanjiro's quilt, Tanjiro didn't panic, the fragrance of wisteria came from that figure, he knew it was Kaneki.

Those hands pressed Tanjirou's sore muscles to relieve his pain.The muscles pressed by Jinmu relaxed.A strong drowsiness hit Tanjirou's nerves, before he fell asleep, he heard a sentence vaguely.

"Thank you for your hard work, keep going."

That night, Tanjiro had a sweet dream.
