Chapter 2326 Believe in Science
When the Lord heard the Master say that he wanted Nezuko to be the ghost ancestor to control the evil spirits, he showed his distrust of human beings. Because he could not shake the mage's decision, the master could only accept it silently. Mukai Kibutsuji must die anyway, even if he died together.
This determination will not change. As for whether the ghosts will change in the future, or whether the struggle between humans and ghosts will continue, this is not what the Lord has to worry about. Just do your own thing well.
"Master, are you here?" As soon as the master's son heard that Dulan was coming, he came over happily. In his heart, Dulan was his teacher: "I have many questions I want to ask you."
When the Lord looked at his son, he thought it was time to send him away. His plan was to use himself as bait, and by the way, treat his wife, eldest daughter and second daughter as the tools of the suspected ghost ancestor, and send them all to the sky with an explosion. . In order to fight ghosts, the master must also use ruthless methods like ghosts.
If you want to defeat ghosts, you must first become a ‘ghost’. When the Lord has such determination. However, the son cannot die, because if the plan fails, the son will need to continue to inherit the position of leader of the Demon Slayer Corps.
The son still knew nothing about the plan at this time.
"This time let's think about what ghost hunters would be like if there were no ghosts." Duran raised such a question.
When the son of the Lord frowned and thought: "If there are no ghosts, the ghost killing team will be disbanded, and the ghost hunters will naturally return to their previous lives."
"Innocent, people who become ghost hunters have severe psychological trauma and violent tendencies, and they also have mastered the power of breathing. It is said that heroes use force to break the law. After the ghosts are eliminated, it is the turn of the ghost hunters. You have been eliminated. The Taisho government will definitely issue a death warrant and let police detectives from all over the country hunt you down. Don’t forget what happened in the Edo period.”
"..." The young master became serious: "Please teach me the Master."
“During the Edo period, as the smallest landlord class, the interests of the samurai were not protected, so they could only gather together to launch armed resistance. The final result was obvious, because the samurai class only protected their own interests, and those who were not above or below were not protected. So it was easy to suppress. Even though there were still external enemies at that time, now external enemies are no longer the most important conflict. If there are no more ghosts, then ghost hunters will naturally become the key targets. Ghost hunters are the instability.”
For the first time, the young master understands the cruelty of the real world. For the whole world, the warrior who kills the dragon will eventually become a dragon. Unless the warrior puts down his arms and takes the initiative to remain anonymous, he will never be found again.
"I have never felt so heavy. Mr. Master, your question really made me realize for the first time that the problems between humans are far more complicated than those between humans and ghosts." The problem between humans and ghosts is very simple. , that means fighting until death is over. But the problems between people cannot be ended simply by fighting: "I think the Demon Slayer Squad should be disbanded, and then letting all the ghost hunters hide is probably the best solution."
"You are still too young. Your statement underestimates the maliciousness of people. Hiding will not solve the problem. The real solution is not to eliminate ghosts, so that ghost hunters will always have the value of existence."
"Isn't this a way of raising a bandit's self-respect?" Even a child knew that what Dulan did was evil, and could even be said to go against his original intention of being a human being. However, the young master was not angry, because he felt that what the mage said must be reasonable, and he was willing to listen.
"You have also studied Western learning. What shape does Western learning say is the most stable?"
"Triangles are the most stable."
"People, ghosts, ghost hunters, this is a triangle, this is the most stable shape. And you should also know that bad people become ghosts, but how do people become bad people?" "Bad people become ghosts, You must know that, because those ghosts who kill innocent people have already become tai when they were human, but what made them evil? "
"It's people, it's people who turn people into bad people." The young master has realized at this time that no matter whether it is a person or a ghost, the most fundamental problem is still a human problem. It's heavy, it's really too heavy. Even a hundred years or a thousand years can't change human nature.
"Yes, this is the root of the problem. If there are no ghosts, then the culprits who turn people into bad people will not be punished. And without ghost hunters, those ghosts will be unscrupulous, and without people, ghost hunters There is no basis. Humans, ghosts, and ghost hunters are closely related. You have me, and I have you, so the best way is to maintain the stability of the triangle.”
The big boss is already dead, so let’s talk to the little boss.
"But it's the curse of our family." The young master thought of his father. At this time, his father was blind, his skin was ulcerated, and he was almost out of shape. Sometimes the pain was so painful that he couldn't sleep day and night. Although his mother took good care of him, he couldn't. Reduce father's pain. His father could not live to be thirty, but he inherited everything. He would become ill after the age of twenty, and then suffer more and more until he died.
It is impossible not to be afraid. The curse of this family is like a nightmare, haunting all the descendants of the family.
"Don't believe in curses, believe in science. Look, Muzan Kibutsuji has become a ghost, but he still maintains a heart that believes in science. On the contrary, you have entered industrialization, but you still hold superstitious ideas, which is really unacceptable." "The genetic disease in your family has existed since the Heian period a thousand years ago. Didn't Muzan Kibutsuji become a ghost because of the torture of illness? What does this show? This shows that people in your family were already sick before there were ghosts."
"But what about Yoriichi Tsugikoku? What about Breath of the Sun? What about the Striped Warriors? Can these be explained by science? Because of the abuse of ghosts, God sent the power to fight against ghosts, which cannot be explained by science. So it is also because of ghosts that God cursed our family. Muzan Kibutsuji's illness is just a coincidence." The young master has seen too many unscientific things recently, so he believes in curses more.
Yoriichi Tsugikoku, Breath of the Sun, Striped Warriors, if Duran can explain these three with science, then the young master believes that the family is just an infectious disease, not a curse.
"Okay, your family is cursed." Duran said that he couldn't explain the existence of the cheater: "But even if it is a curse, it can be fought with the power of science. You have to believe in modern medicine."
"..." The rogue look of the wizard is really helpless: "Master, do you have a way to solve the curse? Your magic power is so strong."
Duran has completed many miracles, otherwise he wouldn't have so many believers. If he takes action, he will definitely be able to solve the curse.
"The curse is naturally not difficult to solve, but the curse is a constraint that makes your family work diligently, so it is not easy to eliminate the curse immediately. How about this, if you get sick in the future, you will become the head of the family. As long as you become the head of the family, you can reduce the pain. How about it? This way, you can reduce the curse and work properly at the same time." Duran said that this method is perfect.
