Chapter 151 Nezuko, Do You Want This Talking Thing?

Chapter 151 Nezuko, do you want this talking ball?

Soon, Tanjiro arrived in front of the cave with a broken bamboo basket and a few pieces of bamboo.

"Why is there an extra cave here? Did I remember the location wrong?" Tanjiro put down the bamboo basket and scratched his head.

"Nezuko doesn't like sunlight, so I opened it specially for her."

Xia Shang's voice came from the depths of the cave.

"No...no." Tanjiro was shocked by Xia Shang's strength. He looked at the knife-like marks around the cave and couldn't help but reach out and touch it.

Then he sat cross-legged at the door of the cave, split the bamboo with the ax on his waist, and then skillfully repaired the broken bamboo basket with bamboo strips.

While Tanjiro was repairing the bamboo basket, Xia Shang closed his eyes tightly and constructed new eyeballs in his body. This task was no longer difficult for him. At the same time, he also discovered that since the fusion of super sensitivity After knowing this, his ability to control his body improved to a higher level.

"Brother Xia Shang, are you practicing?" At this time, Tanjiro walked into the cave carrying the mended bamboo basket.

Since Xia Shang had mentioned his name on the road, Tanjiro remembered it immediately.

"You can think so." Xia Shang said in a cold tone.

Tanjiro was used to the fact that Brother Xia Shang didn't want to talk to him, but he didn't care.

Tanjiro came to Nezuko and placed the bamboo basket on the ground. "Do you want to come here? This way we can travel during the day."

"Go in...here...into the bamboo basket." Tanjiro pointed at the bamboo basket and patiently taught Nezuko.

Nezuko understood. She slowly arched into the bamboo basket like a caterpillar. As a result, the bamboo basket could only hold half of her body.

"Can you make it smaller, otherwise the bamboo basket won't be able to fit you."

Tanjiro just finished speaking.

Nezuko kicked off her legs and fell into the bamboo basket. She fluttered her short legs and adjusted her position. Finally, her little head popped up and looked at Tanjiro and Xia Shang beside her.

"Awesome." Tanjiro touched Nezuko's head, and Nezuko closed her eyes in enjoyment.

"Let's go." Xia Shang opened his eyes and walked out of the cave.

Upon seeing this, Tanjiro quickly picked up the bamboo basket and followed Xia Shang.

Along the way, the three of them passed through many villages, and most of the people who stayed in the villages were kind old people. In response to Tanjiro's inquiries, they enthusiastically pointed out the way to Mount Samagiri for the three of them.

Dusk has arrived and night has fallen. When the three of them passed an ancestral hall, Tanjiro stopped.

"Brother Xia Shang, there is the smell of blood around."

"Yeah." Xia Shang also smelled the faint smell of blood in the air, but he didn't want to meddle in other people's business.

"Someone must be hurt."

Xia Shang just wanted Tanjiro to continue on his way, but unexpectedly, the boy ran directly towards the ancestral hall along the steps on the side of the road.

Forget it, Xia Shang also wanted to see a real ghost and what he was capable of.

However, when Tanjiro opened the door of the ancestral hall, he saw a room full of corpses. Seeing the tragic conditions of these corpses after death, Tanjiro trembled in his heart, and Nezuko, who jumped out of the bamboo basket, saw this scene, as if It evoked the shadow in her heart, and tears couldn't stop flowing from her eyes.

"You dare to disturb my eating, I will never spare you." The evil ghost, which was eating the corpse, turned to look at the two of them with a ferocious expression. It had dark green hair and green stripes on its body.

It stood up and wiped the blood from its mouth, smiling wantonly: "Human? This is the first time I have seen delicious food delivered to your door."

"Really? This is my first time seeing a ghost like you."

"who is it?"

The evil ghost immediately looked behind him and saw a naked man looking at it with curiosity.

"The look in your eyes is really unpleasant!" The evil ghost showed a ferocious smile, waved his hand and grabbed Xia Shang's neck, but unexpectedly, he missed it.

Before he could be surprised, a palm kept enlarging in front of its eyes.

Xia Shang carried its head and came outside the ancestral hall. The sticky floor made Xia Shang feel a little uncomfortable.

"Brother Xia Shang, be careful." When Tanjiro saw the demon's arms stabbing Xia Shang's waist, he couldn't help but warned in a shocked voice.

"I heard that you will die only by cutting off your heads with the Nichirin Sword?"

"Damn it, why can't you pierce this man's skin?" The evil ghost realized that he might be in trouble, but he still pretended to be calm and said: "Now that you know, don't let me go. I'm in a good mood today, let me go." You one horse.”

"But, I don't believe it."

The next second, Xia Shang's other hand decomposed into countless tentacles. In an instant, he chopped the part below the evil ghost's neck into pieces smaller than soybeans. The whole process was completed in the blink of an eye. Tanjiro only I felt a white light flash across the evil ghost's body, and then the evil ghost's body fell like gravel.

"What did you do to my body? Let me go."

Xia Shang held the head in his hand and roared in panic, saying that it could no longer sense the existence of his own body.

"Is it because the cell activity is too strong? If you guessed correctly, some kind of ore used to make the Nichirin Sword should be able to contain and kill the regenerative cells in the ghost's body. After the head is cut off by the Nichirin Sword, the regenerative cells in the ghost's body will disappear. Cells cannot continue to reproduce and lose their vitality. This should be the reason why the Nichirin Sword can kill ghosts."

Something that can restrain cell regeneration, I wonder if it can restrain him.

However, Xia Shang estimated that the possibility was not high. His self-healing ability and the self-healing ability of the ghost were completely different things. The self-healing ability of the ghost came from Muzan's blood, while his came from himself, so he could restrain Muzan, but not necessarily him.

"Nezuko, do you want this talking ball?"

Xia Shang smashed the teeth of the ghost with a punch, then turned around and shook the head in his hand at Nezuko.

Nezuko seemed to think that the ghost was Muzan who killed her family, and rushed directly towards Xia Shang.

"Next." Xia Shang threw the ghost's head at Nezuko.

As a result, Nezuko kicked it back.

"Good shot."

Xia Shang jumped up and kicked the head out accurately again. Nezuko soon realized the fun of this activity.

Then, you and I went back and forth, and Tanjiro was stunned.

The appearance of Xia Shang directly destroyed the terrifying atmosphere just now.

If he lived in modern times, he would understand that all fears come from insufficient firepower.

"They can't kill the evil spirits like this." At this moment, a hand was placed on Tanjiro's shoulder. Tanjiro turned his head and saw a man wearing a Tengu mask behind him.

"How can we kill the demons?" Tanjiro asked.

"I want to hear your judgment." The old man wearing the Tengu mask was Urokodaki Sakonji, who was once the water pillar in the Demon Slayer Corps.

But now he has retired and become a trainer. As the name suggests, a trainer is a profession that specializes in training novices to become members of the Demon Slayer Corps. He defeated a hand demon that was doing evil in the Edo area 47 years ago during the Keio period of the Edo period, and captured it in Fujiki Mountain, imprisoning it in Fujika Prison at the final selection site.

"Cut off the demon's head with the Nichirin sword."

Hearing Tanjiro's answer, Urokodaki Sakonji was a little surprised and said, "Giyu actually told you this. It seems that he has made some progress over the years, but I still want to add a method, that is sunlight. In addition to killing demons with the Nichirin sword, warm sunlight can also kill them."

"Old man, are you sure?" Tanjiro stretched out his right hand and pointed in the direction of Xia Shang.

"Are you tired of playing?" Xia Shang saw Nezuko biting the bamboo tube and dozing off on the spot, just like himself in math class, he could fall asleep while standing.

"In that case, then you'd better die."

Xia Shang grabbed the demon's head and squeezed it hard. In an instant, invisible tentacles surged out of his palm and completely crushed the head in his palm.

"If you can also cut the head of a demon into powder, then you can also kill it, but this method is not something that ordinary people can do. Even the most superb swordsman cannot cut the head of an evil demon into smaller pieces than sand in an instant."

Urokodaki Sakonji looked at Xia Shang with a serious look.

Just as Yiyong said, this person does not have the breath of an evil demon, but can do things that only demons can do, and there is also a disordered airflow around him. This airflow is very strong, but there is no trace of breathing method. Could it be another special human?

Urokodaki Sakonji has seen several such special humans, such as the contemporary rock pillar Beimingyu Gyoumei, who is like a diamond and has infinite strength, and the love pillar Kanroji Mitsuri, whose muscle density exceeds that of ordinary people by eight times.

There is also the ghost-like Xuanya, whose physiques are very special.

"Is it a ghost-like person? But the other party did not show any signs of ghost transformation. Strange, is there a new physique in the world?"

The ghost-like person that Urokodaki Sakonji was thinking of had appeared three hundred years ago. His ability was to complete his own ghost transformation by absorbing and digesting ghost cells. Unfortunately, his strength was not strong. In the end, he often could not contain his own ghost transformation and completely became an evil ghost.

Seeing Xia Shang walking towards him.

Urokodaki Sakonji spoke again: "I am Urokodaki Sakonji. You were introduced by Tomioka Giyuu, right?"

"My name is Kamado Tanjiro, and that's my sister Nezuko."

"My name is Edogawa Xiashou."

"Edogawa? I haven't heard of this surname, but it doesn't matter. Tomioka Giyuu introduced you to me. You are a very interesting person."

Normally, Urokodaki Sakonji would not teach the breathing method to a person with a bad character, because they have turned over many times in this matter, and the lessons they have learned are extremely painful, and the number of pillars who died because of this is countless.

The reason is very simple, because people like this cannot resist Muzan's blood, they always want to become stronger, even if they become ghosts, they don't care.

But Xia Shang is different. From Tomioka Giyuu's mouth, Urokodaki Sakonji learned that Xia Shang was not only not afraid of Muzan, but was very disdainful of Muzan.

If the other party said those words without knowing Muzan, Urokodaki Sakonji would only think that this person was unreliable and arrogant.

But since the other party knew Muzan and was able to easily defeat Tomioka Giyuu, it means that he is very confident in his own strength. For people like this, once their confidence is shattered by Muzan, they will not hesitate to desire stronger power.

The only way to break the deadlock.

Is to let his strength continue to increase and give him a channel to rise.

In this way, even if he is defeated by Muzan, he will not choose to absorb Muzan's blood to become stronger at the first time, but will consider practicing the breathing method to the peak.
