However, this moment of light lasted less than a breath, and only a small number of ghosts on the mountain were burned. The worst hit were the ghosts at the center of the explosion.
A wisp of blue smoke rose from the charred earth. Deep pits as big as several basketball courts were filled with glass-like hot liquid. Outside the pits were carbonized ghosts everywhere. When the mountain wind blew, they immediately turned into flying ashes.
"Hui Li Zai! How much explosives did this guy bring up the mountain? Why didn't anyone come to report to us!" Bi Fang was so scared that his face turned pale. Only after witnessing the scene of the scorching sun did he know where the name of the ghost came from.
"Okay, Kanata, don't fool yourself. He went up the mountain with nothing in his hands, so where did he get so many high explosives? The only investigation result so far shows that this person suddenly appeared on Junyun Mountain. There was no trace of this person before."
Ubuyashiki Teriyaki sighed and then told something even more bizarre.
"Even his father couldn't predict the future of that man. How could we not try our best to win him over when facing such a powerful person? Would we push him to the Ghost King's side?"
After hearing what Teriyachi said, Ubuyashiki Kanata suddenly realized that his brother was right. In order to eradicate the Demon King, they must seize every favorable condition.
The explosion occurred only a short time after the top of the mountain, and the residual heat in the deep pit had not yet dissipated. Because these ghosts happened to be on the edge of the explosion, and there were huge ghosts who blocked the first wave of light radiation for them, the subsequent shock wave allowed them to survive.
They are the tall Hundred-Eyed Demon with eyes all over his body, the thin and pale Thousand-Handed Demon, and the Long-Tongue Demon with leprosy on his face.
Before the three ghosts could gather together, Chen Tianqiao took the lead in attacking, kicking the long-tongued ghost's head and causing it to turn into ashes and fly away.
He now had no patience left. Dealing with these ghosts that could neither be eaten nor improve his strength, he only wanted to end the battle quickly. When he was about to blow the Hundred-Eyed Ghost's head apart, this ghost, who should have been heartless and selfish to the extreme, actually risked his life to rescue the other party.
"elder brother!"
"Blood Demon Art: The Rising White Coffin"
After a few breaths, the Thousand-Armed Ghost's weak body became like a bottomless pit. Countless pale, scaly hands swarmed out like a tide, creating huge waves that instantly wrapped around the opponent's body, completely sealing off the space while gradually squeezing the inside.
"boom!"
The burning fist wind pierced through hundreds of palms like a dead tree or rotten wood, making the Thousand-Handed Ghost, like the Green-Haired Ghost, quickly dried up and weathered by the hot wind.
"Ahhh! You deserve to die!"
"Blood Demon Art: Hundred Reincarnations!"
As soon as he climbed out of the white coffin and raised his eyes, he saw the Hundred-Eyed Ghost with tears and blood all over his body, staring at him. In a trance, he seemed to have returned to his previous life, when he was a security guard at the gate of the community.
Open the door for vehicles coming and going, greet the leaders in the office when you see them, everything is so natural, but have you forgotten something?
"Forget it. Things will work out when the time comes. I'll figure it out one day."
Chapter 106: Reincarnation
Three years passed, and he lived peacefully day by day. He even made plans for his future life. He saved some money to build a house in his hometown and grow some vegetables.
At night, while lying in the staff dormitory playing with his mobile phone, he was suddenly overcome by a strange feeling, just like he had three years ago. The uneasy feeling made him sleepless all night.
Because he went to work with dark circles under his eyes and felt sleepy all the time, he was frequently scolded. Finally, under the threat of his leader, "You can do it or not. If not, you will be fired," he forced himself to cheer up again.
I was standing under the sentry box and for some reason, the weather was getting hotter and hotter. It was already November, but the sun was getting bigger and bigger. Some expert media on TV were also trying to take advantage of the popularity, saying that sunspot activity was causing intense radiation and so on.
While other colleagues were sweating profusely and wanted to stand guard with their shirts off, he alone was not sweating at all and looked normal. No one could understand what was going on. Even after going to the hospital for a check-up, no one could figure out the reason.
"Lao Chen, I really envy you! Now you can even save the air conditioning fee. Please stand for me later and I will give you the money when I get paid."
Zhang Liwen's drinking buddy when he was a security guard. He was also a brave and aggressive person when he was in school. After a few years in society, his temper has improved a lot.
"Okay, go and have a rest."
Just as he finished speaking, there was a loud noise on the street. It turned out to be a heavy truck whose tires had worn out prematurely due to the high temperatures in recent days. It smashed the seven or eight cars in front of it into pieces like meat patties. The horrible scene stunned all passers-by.
Just as some kindhearted people went to rescue, one of the cars exploded with a loud bang, and black and red flames spread to all the vehicles in an instant. The truck driver was so scared that he quickly jumped out of the cab before he could catch his breath.
"Huh... I've been driving for so many years, and this time I'm really lucky. I'll retire after this trip. Anyway, the money I earned..."
Suddenly, another sports car lost control and knocked the driver who had just got off the car over 360 degrees in the air. He fell to the ground with a "bang" and his neck hit the ground. He was silent in the blink of an eye.
Everything before my eyes was like the beginning of every disaster movie. The car accidents on this road alone were enough to equal the city’s traffic accidents in a year, and they all resulted in mass casualties.
Just as he was lamenting the difficult current situation, a fire suddenly broke out in the residential complex behind him. At this moment, the parking garage was like a burning purgatory, and the red flames were like greedy demons, frantically licking everything they could touch.
The sounds of sirens, horns, curses, and cries truly portrayed a doomsday disaster scene, and in the distance on the city skyline, countless thick smoke was slowly rising, as if the entire city was burning.
"Look! Is the sun getting bigger?" Zhang Wenwei was hiding in the sentry box, shivering. The whole city was now without power. Even though it was as hot as a steamer inside, he was unwilling to come out.
"Huh?? What!"
Hearing what the other party said, although he was a little bit unconvinced, he still couldn't help but stick his head out of the sentry box, and saw that the sun, which was originally as big as a dumpling, was now almost as big as a basketball. No wonder it was so outrageously hot now!
"Ah! It's so hot! It hurts so much!" Some people's faces were peeling and their whole bodies were burning hot as if they were on fire.
"Mom, it hurts so much!" Some children were dying from the sun and lay under the shadow provided by their mothers.
"Save me! Someone come save me!" Someone jumped into the fountain and was scalded to death.
The shadows where people could survive have now become a bloody battlefield, with people using teeth, fists, keys, and knives to fight for the right to survive.
However, as time passed, the sun got closer to the ground, and countless objects with low ignition points began to spontaneously combust, and violent explosions occurred one after another.
".....Old..Chen, do you..think we can survive?........Well..maybe only you can survive." Old Zhang's hopeful eyes turned into self-mockery. He dragged his weak and severely dehydrated body, silently walked to the corner and lay down waiting to die.
"I...."
Chen Tianqiao was speechless for a moment. He certainly couldn't tell Zhang Wenwei that the sun in the sky was there to welcome his return, because it was too absurd. After all, he had been living under the education of materialism for decades.
Countless people on the street were lit like candles. They ran and cried, and finally curled up on the muddy asphalt. At this time, Chen Tianqiao, who had been hiding in the guard post, watched all this silently.
The raging solar wind brought down endless flames, igniting every inch of the world, and soon the sun fell with joy.
On the Wisteria Mountain in the Demon Slayer world, he suddenly opened his eyes, his golden pupils exuded a terrifying pressure, and the surrounding vegetation was shrouded in green smoke, with a tendency to be ignited.
"How is this possible! You actually escaped from the reincarnation that I created with all my strength!"
At this moment, the Hundred-Eyed Ghost's eyes were nine times closed, and tears and blood kept flowing out. Even if it could open them again, most of them would be disabled after this incident. Of course, it would have no future.
"Thank you for your care! I was able to watch an R-rated movie in person! As a thank you, I won't let you die so quickly!"
Then, without any ability, he used his knife to chop off the opponent's limbs and head, and carried him behind his back.
"Why don't you kill me! What on earth do you want to do!" The Hundred-Eyed Demon, who was hidden at the waist, roared madly.
"You know what? The rule I set for myself is not to eat humanoid parts, but today you succeeded in making me break the rule."
After saying that, he inserted two fingers directly into the eye sockets of the Hundred-Eyed Ghost, and pulled out two eyeballs as big as plums in a flash, then threw them into his mouth and chewed them with a crunching sound.
At this time, the Hundred-Eyed Ghost just reacted and howled and cursed in pain as his eyes were gouged out, and his severed body was struggling frantically.
"Noisy!"
It was not until Chen Tianqiao, who thought the ghost was too noisy, directly removed its jaw and twisted the tendons of its hands and feet that it finally calmed down.
Because of the previous ghost, the crow that had fled away flew back to lead the way after the battle.
“This is surprisingly delicious!”
Perhaps someone who is used to eating raw food while walking suddenly realized that the eyes of the Hundred Eyes Demon tasted like grapes, and a bite filled the mouth with juice.
It’s a pity that this guy, like the previous ghost spider, can’t recover quickly, otherwise it would be nice to keep it as a fruit plate.
Seeing the crow perched on a tree not far away, he knew there were people in front and was reluctant to eat the Hundred-Eyed Demon completely. After scattering the ashes, he secretly hid in the tree to protect it. If there was no threat to Tanjiro's life, he would be too lazy to take action anyway.
Chapter 107: The Ubuyashiki Clan
"yawn.."
Chen Tianqiao stretched lazily facing the rising sun, and the energy in his body was released and retracted, instantly evaporating the morning dew on his cloak.
Apart from Tanjiro's narrowly escaped death battle, the seven days since that night were very peaceful, and no blind ghost came to cause trouble for him.
The only drawback was that we had to eat vegetarian food for six whole days. Except for the "grapes" we ate at the beginning, we could only pick some fruits every day to get by.
The survivors at the selection venue were scattered. There were about 40 contestants at the beginning, but now there are only 12 left. This was the result of a big fight by someone in the mountain.
Compared to the handful of people who made it through the level in previous years, the people on the scene really came at a good time.
"Congratulations everyone for returning safely." Ubuyashiki Teriyachi congratulated everyone with a smile.
At this time, a young man with a scar on his face interrupted the speech on the stage with an extremely impatient attitude.
"Hey! What do I need to do next? And? Where's the knife!"
Hearing this, the two were not angry. After all, they were people who had to keep their heads on the line all year round, so it was normal for there to be a few unruly people.
"We will hand over the uniforms to you first. First, we need to measure the size, then engrave the grade on the uniforms. As for the knives, it will take about ten days to complete the production."
Next, the two of them introduced the Demon Slayer Corps system, which is divided into ten levels: A, B, C, D, E, F, G, Xin, Ren, and Gui. The Demon Slayer Corps members who had just passed the selection were awarded the lowest level, "Gui".
"You must be kidding! What I want is a knife! The kind that changes color!"
Perhaps because he couldn't get what he wanted, the scarred boy rushed forward with a roar. When he was about to pull the other person's hair, he felt a weight on his back, as if he was carrying a mountain on his back, and was instantly pressed to the ground.
"That's why I really hate kids, especially losers like you who only know how to punch the weak!"
A tall and strong figure, a black cloak with silver edges, and a hot and powerful aura like a ghost. This was the impression everyone present had when they first met the mysterious man.
Chen Tianqiao stepped on the other person's head with one foot and crushed it hard. Of course, he didn't dare to use force, otherwise his head would be smashed, and that would not be a good scene for everyone.
"Asshole! Let me go! Let me go if you have the guts!"
"Tsk tsk..., you scum who can't see the reality clearly, so what if I let you go? Do you dare to do it?!"
When the last word came out of his mouth, endless pressure was released on the spot, shocking everyone present and causing them to step back one after another. Some even felt their legs go weak and they fell to the ground on the spot, just because it was the bloody killing of countless lives and the will to crush everything.
The scarred boy, who was bearing most of the pressure at this time, had difficulty breathing, his face turned red, and he fainted before he could even catch his breath.
"Ahem....Sorry, I went a little too far."
Someone moved his feet embarrassedly. In fact, he had been prepared to be bullied. After being unexpectedly rescued by the person he hired before, he thought of what his brother said and thanked the other person politely.
"Thank you very much for your help, Lord Yan Yang."
"It's just a small favor. Just continue and ignore me."
Since the establishment of the employment contract, he has been dealing with the Demon Slayer Corps frequently. With the special permission of their leader, he has been able to enter and leave the headquarters freely. In addition to having a good relationship with the head of the family, Ubuyashiki Yoshiya, he also got to know his family.
Although we can't be said to be very close, we know each other after all, and can barely be considered acquaintances.
The next ore selection ceremony continued. According to Huiliya, everyone personally selected the steel that could protect their own sword.
"Lord Yan Yang, thank you very much for protecting the other side."
Seeing Hui Liya's serious face, the two were about to bow down to him. Chen Tianqiao was immediately confused. Was this a courtesy only for grandfathers? Was he that old?
Then he stretched out his hands, grabbed their collars, and lifted them up like a cat, tucked them under his arms and said, "It's not a big deal. Why do you kneel down for no reason? If your father knew about this, he would say that I was bullying you."
"But... Father... The adults said this is etiquette, and... besides... Ugh..."
Before Huiliya could finish his words, he was filled with a mouthful of wind. When he came to his senses, he was already on the carriage at the foot of the mountain. There were only the arranged guards around him, and there was no sign of Chen Tianqiao who had led them down the mountain.
"Brother, Lord Yan Yang has left, but before he left, he wanted me to tell you something special." Bifang's face was full of complexity, and even had a hint of admiration.
"What's the matter?" Huiliya was a little curious.
“In this world, one should only kneel to heaven and earth and to one’s parents. Of course, when necessary, one can even kneel not to heaven and earth.”
Of course, he added this last sentence on the spur of the moment. After all, in his time, there were naughty children everywhere, and sometimes he really wished that adults could educate the children together.
Nowadays, if you meet good-looking and well-behaved children, I believe no one would dislike them. It’s a pity that these children were born in the wrong era.
Regarding the curse of the Ubuyashiki family, after he communicated with the head, all he knew was that the curse of the Demon King was lifted.
Moreover, Ubuyashiki Yoya is one of his few friends besides Rei, so he is willing to do his best if it can prevent the other person from dying.
Dusk is the last afterglow that the setting sun leaves for the world. Tanjiro, covered in injuries, is walking back with a cane, staggering. At this moment, his heart is full of worry about Nezuko.
Because he hadn't had a good rest for seven days and seven nights, he felt his clothes becoming heavier and heavier. Suddenly, his eyes went dark and the moment he fell to the ground, someone lifted him up from the ground.
"Ha~ hahahaha, long time no see, boy! I didn't expect that you have grown a lot taller in these two years." With his hearty laughter and iconic attire, Tanjiro immediately recognized the mysterious man who appeared today.
"Hey! It was you who beat someone up at the selection site earlier, uncle!"
Tanjiro hadn't realized at first that the mysterious man in the selection field was the person who saved him and his sister. But who could have told him to have his back to all the swordsmen from beginning to end while educating the children?
"Little brat, why are you calling me uncle? Am I that old? Hurry up and call me Brother Chen!"
"Brother Chen, you are not from Japan."
Chen Tianqiao waved his hand. He neither took the initiative nor bothered to hide his origins. After all, those at the top of the food chain always walked under the sun.
