Son of the Chip King

The purple haori boy still walked forward alone, and only stopped for a while when passing by the wagashi shop, bought a pack of wagashi, and then continued to walk to the edge of the village.

Nara Zen followed from a distance, he carefully restrained his breath, the whole person seemed to be invisible, the crowd came and went, no one noticed the child.

The direction of walking became more and more remote, and the number of people around gradually decreased. Without the cover of the crowd, Nara Zen's figure was completely exposed, but the purple haori boy did not look back once from the beginning to the end.Until he reached the edge of the town, raised his hand, and a pitch-black crow landed on his hand.

The purple haori boy opened the oiled paper bag, and fed the noodle fruit in his hand to the crow without changing his face.

After the crow finished eating, he opened his mouth and shouted in a hoarse voice, "Dongdongnan, Dongdongnan, there is a villager named Wisteria Village who disappeared overnight, go and check, Izumi Saburo!"

Saburo Izumi raised his hand, and the crow flew into the sky, merging with the darkness.The boy didn't move, but turned to look forward, there was no one else around, except the child in front of him, the child who knocked him down and answered his question.

It's amazing, obviously he can't feel that there is someone in front of him, and he can't detect a trace of existence, but his eyes clearly tell him that there is someone, but the other person is nothing like a phantom.

"Are you human?" Izumi Saburo asked.

"Yes." Nara Yoshino nodded.

Izumi Saburo stared at the opponent's eyes, and he frowned slightly. The child didn't feel like a human being to him, but the opponent didn't show any malice. He was worried that he would admit his mistake, so Izumi Saburo didn't take the initiative to attack.

He doubted the child's words.

"Why are you following me?" Izumi Saburo asked.

Yoshino Nara "I'm very interested in your knives."

"This is not a child's toy."

"I don't think I'm a kid."

Saburo Izumi frowned, "You said you are human."

Yoshino Nara "I am a human being, does it have anything to do with me not feeling like a child?"

Saburo Izumi...

Maybe not?

"This is a knife for killing ghosts. Besides being afraid of the sun, ghosts will die if they are cut by this kind of knife." Saburo Izumi answered honestly. He didn't think there was any problem with talking about such a topic with children of a certain age.

Yoshino Nara "How many ghosts have you killed?"

"I don't remember." Izumi Saburo said.

Yoshino Nara "How did you get this kind of knife?"

Saburo Izumi "Join the Demon Slayer Squad."

"What is Ghost Killing Squad?"

"An organization that kills ghosts."

Nara Yoshito was stunned, "Killing ghosts...there is still an organization."

"Ghosts exist, so ghost hunters naturally exist." Izumi Saburo said with lowered eyes, "Because too many people have been killed by ghosts."

Narayoshi "...that's right."

The more people killed, the more people will be left grieving, and these people who are full of resentment, whether for revenge, or so that the world will not add more people like them, will choose to take up the knife , fighting ghosts.

Even if no one knows their existence, their sacrifices.

"How to join the ghost killing team?"

"Participate in the selection." Saburo Izumi looked at Yoshino Nara, "You can't do it, you're too young."

In the ghost killing team, there are indeed many teenagers who kill ghosts with knives, but a little Douding who is less than one meter old, is a reserve soldier who learns swords, and participates in the selection to kill ghosts?No kidding.

Even the cultivator of Ghost Slayer Swordsman would not casually nod and agree to let such a young child participate in the selection, it would kill him.

"Oh." After getting what he wanted to know, Narayoshi turned around and prepared to leave. He can kill ghosts, but he is not good at using swords. Since he is still young, the Demon Slayer Squad will not allow him to join, so he should hone his mind first. Become strong, let's talk about other things.

The ghost-killing organization must have great news.He is very interested in a ghost named Onimai Tsuji.

"Wait, it's time for me to ask." Izumi Saburo called Nara Yoshino, "Why are you interested in the ghost killing team? Why do you know about ghosts? Have you seen them?"

Yoshihiro Nara stopped in his tracks and said, "The only surviving person in Wisteria Village is me. There are three ghosts who killed the villagers of Wisteria, one blew itself up, and the other two were delayed by me until dawn, before being wiped out."

The delicate-looking young man's expression was dull, his eyes widened, and he said in disbelief, "You... solved the three ghosts?"

Nara Yoshino: "That's right."

Izumi Saburo lowered his face. He watched Nara Yoshitaka walking away step by step, and suddenly drew his two knives, and rushed towards Nara Yoshito.The knife was aimed straight at the top of Nara Zen's head. If Nara Zen didn't react, the hair on the top of his head would be cut off completely.

Izumi Saburo didn't intend to kill Nara Yoshino, he just wanted to try, the price of lying is baldness.

If Nara Zen was a ghost, being attacked by the Japanese swords would be enough to force him to reveal his true colors.

Narayoshi's reaction was very indifferent, he just turned slightly sideways, just dodged the two double knives, the blade was only less than one centimeter away from Narayoshi, but Narayoshi's expression remained unchanged, and he lifted his left foot and kicked across , Izumi Saburo only had time to block the sword in front of him, but was kicked several meters away because of the huge force.

The soles of the shoes were quickly rubbed against the ground, and the soles of the feet could feel the scorching temperature. Izumi Saburo looked up at Nara Zen, and he suddenly understood what kind of person the so-called genius that Purgatory Makijuro had been talking about was.

This is a genius, but at a young age, he can dodge his sword as a pillar and still have the strength to fight back.

There is no need to study at all, and it is already at the level of a samurai who has studied swords for several years.

If you learn it, what should you do?

"Do you want to kill ghosts?" Izumi Saburo said, "I can recommend a trainer to you."

Nara Yoshino: "No need, I can become stronger by myself."

Saburo Izumi "The breath of sweetness I use is a derivative of the breath of wind. In order to perfect my breathing method, I have met the trainer of the breath of wind. I can introduce you to him. He lives in Mount Ibuki." Although he is more familiar with Yanzhu Purgatory Makijuro, but the other party is as busy as himself and has no time to cultivate disciples.His son, Xing Shoulang, is probably a year or two younger than the child in front of him. He just started holding a wooden knife, but he didn't have time to teach him carefully.

Nara Yoshino didn't answer.

"To select, you also need the recommendation of the trainer."

"Thank you." Nara replied in seconds. Breathing doesn't matter, but he needs a knife.

Saburo Izumi...

Because there is an important job ahead, the crow should take it with him at all times just in case. Saburo Izumi wrote the letter of recommendation and handed it to Yoshiro Nara to let him go to Mt. Ibuki by himself. Narayoshi folded the letter and stuffed it into the package , turned around and left.I don't want to talk too much with the boy in the purple feather coat.

Looking at the back of the child going away, the crow landed on Izumi Saburo's shoulder and quacked a few times.

"Wisteria Village, Wisteria Village!"

"I won't go." Izumi Saburo said, "Let the hidden people go and see, I'll go to another place." He believed the child's words, and he had received news that there was a place far away where there seemed to be a high-ranking ghost Appeared, I don't know if it is the twelfth moon, he has to go and see.

After walking a few steps, Izumi Saburo paused, and suddenly remembered that he forgot to ask the child's name?

Forgot to introduce yourself too?

"Izumi Saburo, idiot! Idiot!!" the crow quacked.

A lavender wagashi was stuffed into the crow's mouth, blocking its cry.

Since they are all ghost killers, we can always meet again.Even if we don't see each other again, it doesn't matter.

There are two endings for people walking on this road, the evil spirits will be wiped out first, or their own lives will be burned first.

He has made up his mind a long time ago, even if the day of death is not far away.

The author has something to say that Izumi Saburo only appeared this time in this article, as an introduction for the future contact between Shan and the Ghost Slayer Team.

And don't ask me why Saburo Izumi saw Nara Yoshino, who was similar to Oni Wu Tsuji, but didn't have any reaction in the short story.

Because that short story was written earlier.

Of course, it can also be explained in this way, the night is dark and the wind is high, Izumi Saburo eats too much sweets, and lacks enough vitamin A.

A bit night blind.
