Chapter 62 Sudden Changes

"What noodles do you want? Where's your sister?"

In the ramen shop, Lucia looked at Tanjirou and Nezuko, and asked them.

"I'll just have some udon noodles, Nezuko doesn't eat right now."

While answering, Tanjirou moved his nose slightly, he unexpectedly smelled a trace of joy from Lucia's body, which surprised him a bit.

He has always thought that Lucia is the kind of person who will never show any emotion no matter what happens, but after he answered his question just now, his originally mechanically lifeless state of mind seems to have occurred. some kind of change.

Although he didn't know the reason, Tanjiro knew that Lucia should be very satisfied with some aspect of the two brothers and sisters, that's why he showed joyful emotions.

"One serving of udon noodles, one serving of soba noodles, both hot."

Lucia ordered the order from the store, and sat down at a side table with Tanjirou and his sister.

"You said just now that your sister became a ghost because she was contaminated with ghost blood, right?"

Lucia sat on one side of the table, and asked the siblings sitting opposite: "Do you know the name of the ghost that turned your sister into a ghost?"

"I know, I heard it from Mr. Rinaki, the trainer who taught me breathing and sword skills."

Tanjiro's face became serious, "There is an ancestor of ghosts in this world, the blood on his body has the ability to turn people into ghosts, and he has lived from thousands of years ago to the present, it is he who turned Nezuko into a ghost , He also killed my family!"

"His name is—Ghost Dance Tsuji Mumi!"

The ancestor of ghosts, Ghost Dance Tsuji Wumi.

Although Liuxia knew a lot of information about the ancestor of ghosts from Xiaxia, the only thing he didn't know was the name of the ancestor of ghosts.

According to the next statement, it was because the ancestor of ghosts, Mumai Tsuji, added a curse to his blood, so that any existence that became a ghost through his blood would not be able to say his real name.

Once the name 'Ghost Dance Tsuji Wumi' is uttered from their mouths, the curse lurking in the blood will erupt and kill the ghost, so even Liu Xia is the first to hear the name of the ghost king.

That's right, besides the sun and the sun wheel knife, there is another way to kill ghosts, and that is the ghost king's absolute control over the lives of the ogre ghosts under his command.

All the ghosts in this world are created by Oniwu Tsuji. According to the next article, Oniwu Tsuji can create evil ghosts at will, and can also destroy them at will. When the distance is close enough, the ghost king can even Can read their inner thoughts and memories.

In other words, the king of ghosts has the power to kill the subordinate ghosts.

And Gui Wu Tsuji's important tool for turning humans into ghosts is his own blood.

Only a drop of the ghost king's blood is needed to completely change the life form of a human being, from a mammal to a cannibal evil ghost with powerful immortality.

It has been said before that the strength of ordinary ghosts is linked to the number of humans they eat. The more people they eat, the stronger their strength will be.

However, at the level of Twelve Ghost Moons, cannibalism doesn't actually have much effect. As long as you don't eat too many people at once, you basically can't improve your strength.

Therefore, ghosts of the Twelve Ghost Month level generally seldom appear in front of the ghost killing team, because they basically don't hunt and kill humans individually, and are rarely witnessed.

Under normal circumstances, they either live in seclusion in the mountains and are found by the ghost killing team by chance, or they hide in a crowded place and plan to prey on a large scale.

Twelve-month-level ghosts no longer rely on cannibalism to improve their strength.

In more cases, they will pray for the blood of Onimai Tsuji.

Onimai Tsuji's blood is very precious,

Just one drop can create a ghost, a few drops can create a ghost of a different shape, and once more blood is used, a ghost of the twelve-month level can be created.

In other words, the more blood you get from Oni Wu Tsuji, the stronger the Oni will be.

Therefore, all the ghosts in the Twelve Ghost Months would not wish to have the blood of Oni Wu Tsuji.

"The more blood you get, the stronger you will become after becoming a ghost."

Liu Xia thought silently in her heart, "But after becoming a ghost, it is bound to be under the control of Oni Wu Tsuji Mumi...it's a bit difficult."

In all fairness, creatures like ghosts have almost no weaknesses except that they cannot be exposed to sunlight. They are immortal, powerful, and blood ghost power... are all very powerful and convenient powers.

But it is very taboo to be controlled by Oni Wu Tsuji.

Although Liu Xia doesn't have any sense of dignity, if the other party is stronger than him, it's not unreasonable to accept control, but if they can not be controlled, how many people are willing to take the initiative to be a dog licking?

After a while, two bowls of steaming noodles were brought to the table.

"I'm gonna start now!"

Tanjiro held up the udon noodles in front of him, and under Nezuko's staring eyes, he lowered his head and drank the soup beautifully. For him who was born in the country, everything in the big city seemed too gorgeous and high-end, even if it was just a A bowl of ordinary pasta made him feel extraordinarily delicious.

However, before he raised his chopsticks, an extremely subtle but pungent smell penetrated into his extremely sharp nose.

"Clang--"

The udon noodles slipped from his hands unknowingly and fell to the ground, the soup spilled all over the floor, and the white and tender noodles and toppings were messy on the ground as if they had been discarded.

The sound of the porcelain bowl shattering awakened Lucia from her contemplation, and cast her eyes on Tanjirou.

At this moment, the expression on Tanjiro's face became extremely terrifying, his brows were furrowed, his teeth were gritted, the scar on his forehead twitched as if feeling angry, his whole body was filled with unprecedented hot hatred as if he had met his father-killing enemy with.

Immediately afterwards, he didn't even say hello, and he didn't even pay attention to Nezuko who was throwing him a puzzled look, and rushed out of the ramen shop directly under the attention of everyone in the shop.

Nezuko was a little at a loss, standing there blankly, her eyes seemed to have turned into beans due to a sudden change.

Lucia frowned slightly.

"Shopkeeper, we put our things here, come back and pick them up."

Lucia stood up and looked at Nezuko who was at a loss, "If you can understand what I say, come and catch up with me."

After finishing speaking, he didn't care whether Nezuko could understand or not, he carried the piano case on his back, and left the ramen shop following the route Tanjiro left.

Nezuko tilted her head, as if she didn't quite understand the meaning of what Lucia said, but she looked left and right, and there was no acquaintance in the store, all strangers were staring at her, so she immediately opened her arms and followed Lucia Behind him, he left here in a huff.
