"Ugh!"

As a wisp of yang energy entered her stomach, Mi Douzi felt an unprecedented sense of satisfaction filling her entire being.

She didn't know why, but ever since she became a ghost, she had lost all desire for ordinary food.

On the contrary, they have an almost pathological craving for human flesh.

Tanjiro and Rinho are family.

Family members should not be harmed; they need to protect each other.

Therefore, her ties with her family forced her to suppress this desire.

This has resulted in her being hungry since yesterday.

But as time went by, the feeling of hunger grew stronger and stronger.

She found it increasingly difficult to endure.

And this hunger made her feel like she was gradually weakening.

Until she got sunburnt.

She couldn't understand why the warm, bright sunlight of the past now made her so afraid and in so much pain.

She caught it with her hand, and it felt like she was being burned by flames.

For a moment, she even felt like she was going to die.

Out of fear, she hid in the corner.

She could only tremble in pain.

Then Brother Lin Bei arrived.

Brother Lin Bei covered her with a blanket to block out the sunlight and make her feel less afraid.

Brother Lin Bei took her sunburned hand in his hand, and a warm energy flowed from his hand, healing her burns and relieving her pain.

Most importantly, after that warm energy flowed into her body, she actually felt like she was eating, which made her no longer feel so hungry.

However, after healing her burns, the remaining energy was far too little to completely eliminate her hunger and make her feel satisfied.

It's like a hungry person who could have held on, but when someone brings out a plate of delicacies, feeds them a mouthful, and then takes the plate away, that person who could have held on can no longer hold on.

So this is what the glutinous rice is like at this moment.

She could have endured the hunger.

But that's until she came into contact with yang energy.

This is a magical energy that not only heals her burns but also makes her feel full.

As more yang energy was absorbed into the bean, her hunger was rapidly fading.

At the same time, that morbid craving for human flesh and blood also faded away.

Lin Bei, who was infusing Yang energy into the mouth of the glutton, looked tense.

Although there are no immediate signs of problems after the gluttons swallowed the yang energy.

But he didn't dare gamble on whether problems would arise later.

Therefore, he controlled the speed at which he transmitted yang energy to be extremely slow.

In case of any problems, he can stop immediately.

Until only a wisp of yang energy remains.

"belch--"

Ni Douzi let out a satisfied burp.

She clasped her hands to her stomach and fell asleep with a blissful expression.

Seeing the happy and content look on Mi Douzi's face, Lin Bei still carefully checked her over and made sure that there were no other problems before he put Mi Douzi back under the blanket.

He is now able to confirm that the glutinous beans are special.

I don't know if it's because of the blue spider lily in the original work.

In the original story, the blue spider lily is a magical plant that allows ghosts to overcome sunlight.

It is something that the Demon King Muzan could never obtain in his entire life.

However, Tanjiro's family ate this magical plant as wild vegetables.

So after becoming a demon, Mizuko not only overcame her desire to eat people, but also overcame sunlight, becoming the first demon to be able to overcome sunlight.

Lin Bei speculated that the reason why the Bean could be healed by Yang energy and could consume Yang energy as food was probably because of the Blue Spider Lily.

The discovery of this matter finally resolved a major worry for Lin Bei.

This relieved him of the worry that Nidouzi would kill someone because he couldn't bear the hunger.

The only problem is that it will make their already strained food situation even worse.

Seeing that a third of the food had been consumed in just one night, Lin Bei sighed.

"well--"

"It seems we need to find a way to go out and find food today, otherwise we'll be starving in a couple of days at most."

After saying that, Lin Bei looked at Tanjiro beside him.

"Tanjiro, you've been running up and down the mountain the whole time."

"Do you know any places down the mountain where I can find work?"

Tanjiro did not answer Lin Bei's question immediately.

He was still marveling at the incredible feat Lin Bei had just accomplished.

He excitedly grabbed Lin Bei's hand.

"Brother Lin Bei, how did you manage to do that just now?"

"Could you teach me?"

"That way, Midouzi won't get hurt or go hungry anymore."

Faced with Tanjiro's expectant look, Lin Bei was powerless to help.

He was able to do all this because of the yang energy furnace.

He was able to refine the magical energy of Yang Qi by relying on this cheat.

But he couldn't bear to disappoint Tanjiro.

So they decided to tell a white lie.

He stroked Tanjiro's head and said loudly.

There is only one way to do this.

"That is to become stronger."

"Eat well, exercise well, and rest well."

"As long as you keep going, you will become stronger and stronger."

"When you're strong enough, nothing can hurt Nezuko anymore."

Upon hearing this, Tanjiro's eyes lit up.

"Brother Lin, is this alright?"

Seeing Tanjiro's unwavering gaze, Lin Bei silently apologized to Tanjiro in his heart.

"I'm sorry, Tanjiro!"

"No matter how hard you try, it's impossible to cultivate yang energy."

"But I'm not exactly lying to you, as long as you're strong enough."

"So strong that he can punch an Upper Moon demon and kick Muzan."

"Naturally, no one can hurt Mizuko anymore."

"And I, as your and Mizuko's older brother."

"I will be your companion and supervisor on your path to becoming stronger."

Then Lin Bei's expression turned wicked, and he flashed a bright smile with ten teeth at Tanjiro, who was full of anticipation.

"You look so energetic."

"The plan to become stronger starts today."

"Let's set a small goal first."

"Eat a pound of rice at each meal, then do 100 push-ups, 100 sit-ups, and 100 squats..."

Listen to Lin Bei recount his plan to become stronger, word by word.

Tanjiro's expectant expression gradually faded, then turned into a blank stare.

When Lin Bei uttered the last sentence, "I'll run ten kilometers every day from now on,"

Tanjiro seemed to see his future gradually turning dark.

Lin Bei's incredibly bright smile, in Tanjiro's eyes at this moment, was no different from that of a demon.

Looking at his thin arms and legs, he felt that if he really followed Lin Bei's little plan to train, he was afraid he would die suddenly before he became stronger.

Tanjiro then revealed a smile that looked more like a grimace.

"Brother Lin Bei, I'm still just a child!"
