Instead, there was a cold murderous aura.

"Who hurt you two?"

After resting for such a long time, their injuries have almost healed.

Unexpectedly, it was still seen.

The two looked at each other, not knowing how to respond to Zhou Yi.

Even though I lost to an upper-rank rank, it's not shameful.

But the person in front of them was a Pillar who had slaughtered the upper ranks, so they really couldn't say anything.

Yiyong and Xuantu felt that the weather before them had suddenly changed from the springtime to the bitter cold of December!

The sudden change caught them off guard.

Big brother is so strong!

This murderous intent alone is so much stronger than theirs.

"Big Brother, calm down. We are not good enough in our skills. Let's go in and talk!"

Giyuu remained calm and answered calmly.

Zhou Yi also nodded in agreement.

After the three of them sat down, he began to tell the story.

"So you're a newly promoted upper-rank demon! You're lucky to be only seriously injured."

"That's right. With the two of you working together, ordinary lower-rank monsters are no longer a concern."

"Don't worry, leave this guy to me!"

"You actually bullied my junior brother. You must treat him well!"

Yiyong and Xuantu were frightened by Zhou Yi's sneer at this moment.

They all moved to the side involuntarily.

"Yiyong, I always feel that Senior Brother's smile is creepy!"

"Xiantu, I think so too!"

Boom!

The two people's whisper ended with Zhou Yi's surprise.

"Don't say these nonsense!"

"Tell me your mission here. The lord's letter was hasty and did not give details."

Zhou Yi's original intention of coming here was to find the Fuzugawa family and take two good talents back to the Demon Slayer Corps.

Unexpectedly, the lord sent a hurried letter halfway through the journey, saying that he was also there and needed reinforcements.

Yiyong and Santu stopped joking and continued to talk about their mission.

"Over the past year, the ghosts in various places have all quieted down."

"It just so happens that in this place, traces of ghosts keep appearing frequently!"

"It's especially obvious in recent times! A large number of children have mysteriously disappeared."

967 "Now that the children are being watched closely by their families, the ghosts have started to attack adult men again."

"We just found out that it was Muzan who ordered us to collect food for him to enjoy."

Oh no, it’s this guy again!

After listening to Xuantu's introduction, Zhou Yi's face became a little solemn.

"From what you've said, the ghost before Hayate worked very hard, but he was also killed by Muzan?"

"Muzan is making such a big fuss? It doesn't fit his character! What's the plan behind this?"

Zhou Yi was still thinking.

"We found some clues."

"Several big businessmen in the city are probably colluding with the ghosts behind the scenes!"

"The shops they opened recruited a large number of children."

"A few days later, those children mysteriously disappeared!"

Oh?

There are such shameless guys!

The last time I encountered such an outrageous thing was when I went to Hachijo Island to rescue Iguro Obanai.

The location is remote, so the Demon Slayer Corps has difficulty handling it for a while.

But it’s different here!

"Let's go, grab some weapons, and go check it out tonight!"

Actually committing adultery?

That must be made clear to you!

After that, Zhou Yi led his two fellow apprentices out of the Ziteng shop.

Chapter 117: Divine Soldiers Descend from the Sky

The basement of Tongyuan Shop.

A twenty-centimeter-thick iron door separates the inside and outside.

In this day and age, this door is not cheap!

I guess there must be some treasure inside.

Boom boom boom!

There was a dull knock on the door.

A trembling shop assistant knocked on the iron door.

His legs were trembling and he wanted to run away several times, as if there was some ferocious beast inside.

There were a few guys in the store, but they all suddenly disappeared after they finished their night watch.

Now he suspected that it was related to this door!

But the fat shopkeeper on the side was staring at him so intently that the guy had no chance of escaping.

There's no other way, I have to make a living.

He could only grit his teeth and wait there.

squeak!

The heavy iron door was slowly pushed open, and the protrusions at the bottom came into close contact with the stone slabs, making a series of harsh sounds.

The door is open!

Thus, the shop assistant could finally find out what was going on.

The first thing that hits you is the smell of blood!

"What's that smell? Have animals been slaughtered here?" The shop assistant covered his nose, feeling very uncomfortable.

The originally quiet basement outside suddenly became noisy. Without the sound insulation of the iron door, the deafening cry of children inside came out.

The basement was pitch black, and the shop assistant could only vaguely see that it was full of iron cages.

The iron cage was filled with black shadows of all sizes. If he guessed correctly, these were all children!

Although it is somewhat difficult to see in from the outside, it is crystal clear when looking out from the inside.

A child in a cage at the door saw the appearance of the shop assistant and immediately became excited!

"Help me! I'm Kenta!"

The shop assistant widened his eyes in disbelief.

Kenta, who was asking for help, was once an employee recruited by the store and had a good relationship with him.

Until one day, after receiving a small bag of food, Kenta never showed up again.

He once asked the shopkeeper, who only said:

"This traitor Kenta was dissatisfied with the low salary, so he quit and went to another company."

It is true. The shopkeeper is rather stingy. He would promise to give people a full bag of grain, but in the end he would only give out half a bag or even a small bag.

If the shop assistant hadn't treated him well, he would have left long ago.

Now, Kenta, who the shopkeeper said had changed jobs, actually appeared in the iron cage in the basement!

The shop assistant finally understood the reason. He stammered and said to the shopkeeper beside him:

"Shopkeeper, this! It turns out that the rumors are true!"

"It turns out that all the children who worked for you were captured by you!"

At this point, the fat shopkeeper no longer concealed anything and said to him with a sneer:

"Huh, you only know it now? It's too late!"

The cries for help kept ringing in his ears, and the shop assistant's conscience told him that he had to do something!

"Just wait! I'm going to report to the police!"

After saying that, he was about to leave.

"Want to leave? Not that easy!" The fat shopkeeper grabbed the clerk's clothes and tried to stop him.

But the shop assistants were young and strong, and the fat and frail shopkeeper could not stop them.

He simply swung his hand and knocked the fat shopkeeper to the ground.

Without further ado, the shop assistant prepared to run away.

"Here's your dinner! Help me get rid of him"

The fat shopkeeper fell to the ground, grimacing in pain and roaring at the dark basement.

Shop assistant: ? ?

Could it be that this fat shopkeeper has helpers?

What on earth does this dinner mean!

He looked carefully and found it was pitch black inside and there was no one there.

But the shopkeeper didn’t say that the helpers he called were human beings?

"Don't be bossy! Master Hayate only asked us to be in charge of guarding."

"But since you're so thoughtful, we'll help you this time!"

"Remember, next time you deliver food, don't make it so troublesome!"

Who is speaking?

The shop assistant's hair stood on end.

Such a gloomy tone, sounds creepy.

He looked back and saw four red dots suddenly appear in the dark basement.

Those are eyes, two pairs of blood-red eyes!

The shop assistant was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground, using his hands to support himself and backing away, while asking in panic:

"You! What kind of monsters are you!"
