The full moon hangs high in the sky, emitting a cool light. With the help of the moonlight, it is not difficult to see the five fingers.
Su Mu took Makoto, and Tanjiro also stepped onto the top of the mountain.
Although it is on the top of a mountain, there are dense trees around it. Under the moonlight, the leaves reflect a silvery white luster, as if they were covered by frost and snow.
The breeze blows, and the leaves sway gently, making a rustling sound, like a whisper.
The full moon hangs high in the night sky, with no dark clouds blocking it. It looks exceptionally bright. The moonlight is like water, shining quietly among the mountains and forests, casting a mysterious veil on the dark hillside. In the distance, the mountains are undulating. , the outline is also faintly visible in the moonlight.
Masaki and Tanjiro followed Su Mu. Although their steps were light, they were particularly clear in this quiet night.
The three of them were very vigilant. After all, no one knew if there were evil spirits suddenly attacking them in the dark.
You must know that the evil ghosts here are different from the evil ghosts elsewhere. The evil ghosts here were caught here and couldn't get out at all. They haven't eaten anyone for who knows how long.
Every year, only during the Tengxi Mountain assessment, will humans appear here?
""547" With evil ghosts' desire for human flesh and blood, ghosts that have been hungry for so long will no longer be able to control their desire to eat once they find humans. They will choose to attack humans without hesitation.
Even if these humans are not weak Human beings.
Therefore, for the swordsmen who participate in the assessment, the test is not how many evil ghosts they kill in these seven days, but whether they can survive these seven days.
This is also the most important part of this assessment..As long as you can survive these seven days, you can become a swordsman of the Demon Slayer Corps without resorting to any means.
The three of them walked silently and vigilantly.
But along the way, they did not encounter any attacks from evil spirits. , but there was no relaxed look on the faces of the three of them, because they always felt like something was spying on them.
Obviously, there should be ghosts who regarded them as prey and were ready to hunt them.
"rustle……"
The three people stepped on the leaves of the forest, making a rustling sound. This sound was particularly clear in the quiet night.
"ah!"
A shrill scream suddenly sounded from a distance.
Obviously, a person participating in the trial should have been attacked by an evil spirit, and, depending on the situation, the condition of the trial person who made the sound should be bad.
Then. Hearing this shrill scream, Su Mu and the other three instinctively raised their heads and looked in the direction of the sound.
"Whoosh……"
In the dark woods, a black shadow suddenly flickered and then disappeared silently.
When it reappeared, the evil ghost had appeared behind Su Mu. Apparently, the three of them were attracted by the movement in the distance and suddenly launched an attack.
Its figure is looming, as if it is condensed from the deepest darkness, and its skin shows a sickly pale color, which is in sharp contrast with the surrounding shadows, making it look weird and terrifying.
At this moment, there was no trace of anger on the evil ghost's face, but a pair of scarlet eyes, filled only with greed for food.
There is a cruel and strange smile on the corner of its mouth, with sticky saliva, showing its deep desire for food.
Its fingers were curved like an eagle, and as soon as it appeared, its claws grabbed at the swift Su Mu, seeming to tear off Su Mu's head in an instant.
Obviously, this evil spirit should feel that these three people should take this person as the leader, and want to kill him first, and then deal with the others.
"Breath of Water. Type One. Slash on the water surface."
At this moment, a beautiful figure behind Su Mu suddenly moved.
But it was Zhen Shi who took action in an instant. The hand that had been pressed on the handle of the knife at his waist also moved in an instant, aiming the sharp blade at the attacking ghost claw. He chopped it off.
The girl's long black hair was blowing in the wind as she moved. Her beautiful eyes under the fox mask were bright and energetic, and her slightly exposed skin was also particularly charming.
"choke!"
The blade and the ghost's claws intersected in an instant, and bursts of sparks burst out vaguely.
The evil ghost missed the blow and tried to retreat, but the figure of Zhen Shi had already flashed past.
When he reappeared, the figure of Zhen Shi had already reached the evil ghost. Behind her, her feet landed lightly
, sheathed the knife and sheathed it.
The whole process was completed in one go.
But as soon as the girl's blade was sheathed, the evil ghost's body suddenly stopped, and then a scratch appeared on its neck. expand
"Poof!"
The head then fell to the ground, and a large amount of scarlet blood splashed out.
"Plop!"
But the evil ghost's body could no longer hold up and fell to the ground.
From the sudden attack of the evil ghost to the attack of Zhen Shi, in just a split second, the evil ghost was killed by Zhen Shi's sword.
"It's so dangerous, Mujun, are you okay?"
Zhen Yan turned around and flipped up his long black hair. The eyes under the fox mask with a blue flower pattern were a bit playful.
Su Mu's eyes first fell on Zhen Yan, looking at the girl's heroic appearance, and then His eyes fell on the evil ghost, looking at the already dead evil ghost that could no longer die, and he secretly thought it was a pity.
If he were to kill this evil ghost, he would be able to get a lot of attribute points.
It was really the one who took action. The speed was so fast that he didn't even have time to hit the last hit.
"I'm fine, thanks to Miss Masaki."
Although he felt regretful, Su Mu still spoke very gently.
"I said that I would protect Mujun! How could he break his promise?"
Zhen Sheng straightened out her well-developed small breasts, raised her head slightly, and spoke confidently.
Seeing the girl's somewhat arrogant look, Su Mu also smiled gently:
"If I encounter an evil ghost next time, if possible, let me chop off its head."
He requested with a smile. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
Zhen Shi blinked his eyes, a little surprised that Su Mu would make such a request. He even couldn't help but wonder if Mu Jun had ever been so happy. Only after the ghosts were destroyed can he have such a strong hatred for ghosts and be so fond of chopping off the heads of evil spirits.
Thinking of this, Zhenji felt a little soft in his heart. It turned out that the strong Mujun also had such a past0......
Suddenly, I wanted to know more about Mujun’s past.
"sure."
Mako said with a smile, his eyes becoming softer.
As the evil ghost died, the unpleasant stench also escaped, and at the same time, there was an inexplicable sad breath.
Tanjiro on the side closed his eyes slightly, As if he saw something, he walked slowly to the corpse of the evil ghost, came to the head that was lying on the side but with its eyes open, stretched out his hand, and gently touched the eyes that remained unblinking.
His fingers were gentle but strong. , as if to appease something, trying to give the deceased some peace.
The evil ghost's cold and stiff eyes seemed to have a trace of life again under the touch of Tanjiro's palm.
I don't know why, vaguely, the air was escaping. The feeling of sadness was lessened.
Seeing Tanjiro's movements, Masaki frowned slightly.
"Tanjiro……"
In the end, Masaki couldn't help but said:"Don't have any sympathy for ghosts, remember, they are ghosts."
Tanjiro raised his head, looked at Masaki and smiled:[]
"I know, Sister Zhenji, I just seem to see the sad past of these evil spirits"
"These evil spirits were once human beings, but became what they are now for various reasons."
When Mako heard this, his expression turned ugly:"Tanjiro, are you sympathizing with these evil ghosts? Or do you think it was wrong for me to kill the evil ghost?"
"Sister Zhenshen is certainly not wrong."
Tanjiro shook his head, and his voice became lower at this moment:
"Maybe, these evil ghosts had a sad past in the past, maybe, these evil ghosts had reasons why they had to become ghosts, maybe..., but these can never be the reasons for them to harm humans."
Mako's expression softened slightly when he heard this.
At this moment
, Tanjiro also stood up, and his eyes became firmer and sharper.
Next to him, Su Mu looked at all this thoughtfully.
He probably understood
Tanjiro Jiro should have seen the memory of this ghost's past as a human again.
Perhaps he saw the bitter life this evil ghost had when he was a human, and saw how the suffering of life turns people into ghosts.
Because Having witnessed with his own eyes how these people turned into ghosts, it would be difficult for this person to kill the ghosts without any psychological burden.
Tanjiro, undoubtedly, has an extremely gentle heart, and he has a deep understanding of the ghosts' past. Life is full of sympathy, so he has such gentle actions.
But similarly, although he is gentle, he is not pedantic.
When facing an evil ghost, he will not hesitate to draw his sword and chop off the evil ghost's head..And this is probably the most shining point of Tanjiro.
