Chapter 139 - Ji Guoyuan Doesn’t Want to Trouble Others

evening.

As the sun sets, the black night gradually lifts from one side, trying to cover the sky that has lost the sun.

The entrance to Knife Forging Village.

As soon as Ji Guoyuan looked at the brightly lit knife-forging village, the lights reflected in his pupils, making him dazed for a moment.

Shang Quannai stood next to him, scanning the knife-forging village with squinted eyes.

"You must be Your Excellency Shang Quan." A man wearing a fire man's mask bowed to Shang Quan Nai, his tone was slightly respectful and excited.

The hand hidden behind his back held an old scroll.

"Yes." Shang Quannai nodded expressionlessly. He had already looked around the Knife Forging Village.

The man in the fire man mask was a little at a loss when he saw this. He subconsciously shouted behind him:

"Hey!! Tie Qiao, come here quickly!"

A strong man ran out of the village.

"I'll call the village chief...you can entertain these swordsmen first..."

"By the way, the guest rooms must be pillar-level rooms, the best kind."

"give it to you!"

After a brief conversation with his companion, "Tie Qiao" who was called over nodded to the man.

"Everyone, please come with me." "Tie Qiao", a strong man wearing a fire man's mask, said angrily to several people.

My wife, Shancun, curiously stood at the gate of the Knife Forging Village and poked her head inside.

Wooden piles two people high surrounded the Knife Forging Village airtightly, and there was a wide street leading directly to the door.

In the distance, the green forest swayed slightly under the dim sunset.

The streets are lined with closely connected houses, mostly two-story residences.

At this moment, through the windows of the house, warm and peaceful lights are slowly shining outward.

Along the way, passers-by walking along the street all wore masks. After seeing Shang Quannai and his party, they would nod slightly to a few people.

Occasionally, a few people saw Shang Quannai's appearance at a glance at night, and stood there in shock until they moved away.

"Everyone, it's already night now. You can rest first."

The sturdy man walked in front of several people and stopped in front of a house:

"This is your residence. Tomorrow morning, someone else will lead you to see the person who forges your swords. I'll take my leave first."

With that said, the man wearing the fire man mask was about to leave.

"Wait!" My wife Shancun looked around with anxiety on her face. He grabbed the man who was about to leave and said eagerly:

"Where's the hot spring?"

"Why didn't I see the hot spring?"

My wife Shancun stared at the two round eyes on the man's mask and asked seriously.

"Why is that big, warm and mixed bathing hot spring gone?"

The man was stunned for a moment, then scratched his face and explained helplessly:

"After we were attacked by ghosts last time, we changed the address of the village. This time there is no hot spring in the village."

"What?!" My wife Shancun's eyes widened and she froze in shock as if she had been struck by lightning. Her hand holding the man's sleeve unconsciously let go.

"If there's nothing else to do, I'll take my leave now." Tie Qiao nodded to Shang Quannai and the others, and then left slowly.

My wife Shancun watched the man gradually move away in a daze, with only a few words left echoing in her mind.

“No hot springs…”

"how come…"

"Okay! Come in soon!" Ciichiro frowned. He pulled my wife Shancun's collar and tried to pull her into the house.

My wife Shancun's eyes widened, tears gradually flashed in his eyes, and he shouted:

"Then why am I still unable to open my eyes after a rough day!!!"

“I’m not willing to give in!!”

Snapped!

"This is so embarrassing! Shut up!" Ciichiro was furious, slapped my wife Shancun on the head, and then forcefully pulled him into the house.

inside the room.

It's a very traditional Japanese-style room, with several tatami mats put together, and a calligraphy with the word "persistence" hanging on the wall next to it.

Ji Guoyuan knelt down and sat on the tatami, and several people sat together, with the food served in front of them.

He looked at the steaming meal in front of him and was a little dazed for a moment.

"What's wrong?" Shang Quannai casually picked up a piece of rice with chopsticks, put it in his mouth and sipped it, looking at Ji Guoyuan indifferently and asked.

Ji Guoyuan raised his head and looked at Shang Quannai. He opened his mouth and finally asked hesitantly:

"Why."

"The people here should treat us so well."

He lowered his head slightly and looked at the delicious food in front of him, somewhat indifferently.

"It's mutual!"

"We use the swords they forged to kill ghosts on the front lines and protect them."

"They are also happy to forge Nichirin swords, and they will also provide food and clothing for the team members who come to the village."

My wife Shancun was eating the food in small bites, and he was the first to explain to Jiguo Yuanyi.

Ji Guoyuan raised his head and looked at my wife Shancun blankly.

Then, he slowly picked up the chopsticks, but he still felt a little guilty.

Because he didn't pay anything, he just enjoyed the preferential treatment here.

Shang Quannai looked at Jiguo Yuanyi's expression and said nothing.

His original explanation to Enichi was that he wanted to find someone to build a Nichirin sword for him to use in battle.

Yuanyi rejected him righteously and said that he could just use an axe.

But later, under Udo's persuasion, Yuichi finally agreed to forge the sword.

He seems to be a person who doesn't like to trouble others very much.

At this time.

"Dong dong dong!"

The wooden door of the room was suddenly knocked.

"Excuse me, is Lord Kamizumi eating?"

An old and hoarse voice with a naughty tone sounded from behind the door.

"excuse me."

Squeak...

The door was slowly pushed open, and several people in the room looked out.

An old man who also wore a mask, was a little thin and wrapped in simple clothes sat on the futon.

After seeing Shang Quannai, he stayed in place in a daze. After a while, he said with excitement and trembling in his voice:

"Ah, ah, sorry, I lost my temper a little."

"I am the current village chief of Knife Forging Village."

…

While several people were dining.

A forest far away from the Knife Forging Village.

Above the dense forest.

The female swordsman wearing dark red clothes and long yellow hair stood on one foot on the treetop, her eyes staring at the direction where the smell of fireworks and the Nichirin Sword came from.

The moonlight slowly fell on her face, illuminating her expressionless face.

And in the eyes, written in black fonts, are the words [上线][一].

Sniff.

She shrugged her nose and carefully smelled the unique sun scent of the Nichirin Sword, and couldn't help but frown.

In her simple memory, the Nichirin Sword and the Demon Slayers were almost equated.

Therefore, in her current understanding, a place with a large number of Nichirin Swords equals many Demon Slayer members, which equals the Demon Slayer headquarters.
