At the same time, but the crazy

Chapter 35 Tanjuro

"This guy is right. Sometimes you have to learn to accept other people's kindness.
Here~ Take it, and eat well, Tanjiro!"

Seeing this, the aunt smiled and stuffed the cloth bag containing the rice balls directly into Tanjiro's arms, then walked into the house without saying anything.

"Eh?! Um...thank you so much!!"

Tanjiro was affected by this sudden action and it took him a moment to react. Then he solemnly thanked Big Mom in the direction she disappeared.

"Ha~"

Zhang Qi couldn't help but smile knowingly when he saw this scene.

This was the third day after he left Sagiri Mountain, and he finally found the trace of the charcoal-selling boy in this town.

As a charcoal-selling family, the Kamado family was more well-known in the area than he had imagined, so it didn't take him much effort to find them.

As a result, I saw the scene just now. This simple image is consistent with the comics.

"Is there anything else you need my help with?
Um...if it's possible, could you wait until I sell all the charcoal?"

After thanking him, Tanjiro turned around and asked again. The other party did not leave immediately, which meant that he had something else to ask him.

Because his sense of smell is very sensitive, this is not the first time he has encountered such a thing.

But this would have to be done after he sold all the charcoal, because he still had to use the money to buy medicine for his father.

"It's okay. I just heard that Mr. Tanjuro is an excellent swordsman and wanted to come and visit him."

Zhang Qi waved his hand and then told his purpose truthfully.

"Visiting... my father? With his sword skills?!"

Tanjiro looked at Zhang Qi in surprise. In his impression, his father had never played with a sword, so how could he be described as having superb swordsmanship?

"You may be mistaken. My family has always been charcoal burners and have never practiced swordsmanship.

Besides, my father is frail and is still bedridden..."

Tanjiro came back to his senses and continued to explain truthfully.

His father wasn't such a great man...

"Yes, it's this Mr. Tanjuro.

If possible, could you take me to meet your father?"

Zhang Qi nodded. These features matched perfectly, which meant he had found the right place.

"Um...sure...but can it wait until I sell all the charcoal?"

Tanjiro thought about it and finally nodded, even though it wasn't nice to bring a stranger home.

But his father shouldn't mind. After all, he didn't smell anything bad from the man in front of him.

"no problem."

Zhang Qi nodded. Since the place had been found, there was nothing wrong with waiting a little longer.

In this way, Zhang Qi followed Tanjiro and watched him hawking on the street.

It was not until the afternoon that Tanjiro sold all the charcoal in his basket. He then took the money to the clinic and exchanged it for medicine.

Zhang Qi also took this opportunity to go to the nearby store to buy some snacks. After all, it would be better to bring some gifts when visiting someone so suddenly.

After that, Tanjiro took Zhang Qi up the mountain. It was almost dark when they saw a simple hut deep in the mountain.

There was also a woman with a child on her back packing clothes in the yard.

After seeing this woman, Tanjiro quickened his pace and soon came to her side.

"Mom, I'm back.

This is my father’s medicine…”

Tanjiro said happily that this was the result of his hard work for half a month.

With this medicine, my father's illness should be cured.

"Welcome back, thank you for your hard work, Tanjiro." The woman reached out and touched Tanjiro's head, a gentle smile with a bit of heartache on her face.

She is such a sensible child. Even though she is still a child, she takes on all the housework.

"It's okay, father's illness will be cured after taking this medicine.

After this, I can sell charcoal with my father, so that we can have more money during the New Year..."

Tanjiro shook his head and then spoke with some longing.

If he worked with his father, their family would have more income.

With this money, their family will be able to eat well during the New Year, and they can also buy some nice new clothes for Nezuko and Hanako...

"Aiya! Brother..."

At this moment, the child on the woman's back seemed to have heard something and woke up from his sleep.

She rubbed her eyes in a daze, and when she saw it was Tanjiro, she babbled and stretched out her hands to Tanjiro.

"Okay, Mao, let me rest for a while before I play with you~"

Seeing this, the woman touched the child's head behind her lovingly, and then spoke softly.

"Oh~"

Hearing his mother's words, the child behind him shrank back in disappointment, and then whispered.

"By the way, who's the kid following you?"

After the woman calmed the child, she looked at Zhang Qi who was following behind Tanjiro and asked.

Could this be the friend Tanjiro met in town?
“I’m Zhang Qi, and I’ve made the bold move to come here to meet Mr. Tanjuro.

A small gift is not enough to show respect..."

Zhang Qi said this, and then handed over the package of snacks in his hand.

"Um……"

The woman was stunned when she heard this. Judging from the child's clothes and the sword at his waist, his identity must be extraordinary.

Her husband was just an ordinary charcoal seller, and his activities were limited to the mountains and the town. How could he know such a person?

"Mom, it's okay. Brother Zhang Qi doesn't mean any harm."

Seeing this, Tanjiro quickly said that he had talked a lot with this person along the way.

The other party is from an organization that specializes in hunting down evil spirits, and I have seen records of them in an ancient book.

In the past, a powerful swordsman of the Demon Slayer Corps once communicated with their ancestors and left behind his own swordsmanship which has been passed down to this day.

The other party came here this time just to confirm this matter...

The moment he heard this, the image that came to his mind was of his father dancing the Fire God Kagura in the snow...

"Well, come on in then."

The woman nodded when she heard this, then took the gift from Zhang Qi and invited Zhang Qi into the house.

Zhang Qi followed the woman through the corridor and into the living room.

Then I saw a thin man sitting on the bed, looking at two children playing outside the window.

As if he had noticed Zhang Qi's arrival, the man turned his head instantly, and a gentle smile appeared on his calm face.

"Kuizhi, are there any guests visiting today?"

The man said this, then looked at Zhang Qi with a look of surprise on his face.

He could see that although the man in front of him was still a child, his muscles and bones were on another level entirely.

In terms of physical strength alone, even a grizzly bear in the mountains would be easily defeated...

But how could such a powerful person appear here?
