Chapter 376

Unlike Shinobu Kocho who looked troubled, Kanae Kocho whispered, "When Kanae meets the person destined for her, the lock in her heart will naturally be opened... Isn't it romantic to think like this?"

"Sister, romance is something that only happens in storybooks."

Shinobu Kocho frowned and retorted, "Reality is much more cruel than storybooks. At least there are no such abominable things as evil spirits in storybooks."

"But, were evil spirits also human before? Maybe eating people was not their original intention. They should have had the emotions that humans should have at the beginning, but because of the hunger rooted in the blood of demons, they had to choose to eat people... If you think about it this way, I always feel that those demons are also pitiful."

"..."

"If one day, demons don't need to eat people, will humans and demons become friends?"

Shinobu Kocho didn't speak up, because she couldn't understand her sister in this regard.

Yes, those evil spirits were also human before they became demons, but so what? No matter what their past is, it cannot change the fact that they ate people. Why can my sister still have sympathy for that monster? Why does my sister think that ghosts can be friends with humans?

Obviously, my sister is just like me... both witnessed their parents' lives being taken away by evil ghosts.

Obviously, my sister is just like me... both vowed to defeat the evil ghosts, so as not to let others have the same tragic experience as me.

Not only her, almost everyone in the Demon Slayer Corps cannot understand Kocho Kanae's philosophy. Beiming Yukimura also commented that Kocho Kanae was too gentle.

Of course, although Kocho Kanae has sympathy for evil ghosts, she will not hold back on evil ghosts in battle. She is just too gentle, not a saintly bitch, otherwise she would not be able to become a "pillar".

"Well, I'm leaving now."

With her eyes curved like crescents, Kocho Kanae opened her arms to Kocho Shinobu, "How about it? Cute Shinobu, do you want to give me a kiss before we part?"

"Sister! You're treating me like a child again!"

"Hahaha!"

Kocho Shinobu blushed and raised her fist as if to hit, but Kocho Kanae had dodged it nimbly long before that.

Glazing at Kocho Kanae with a smile on her face, Kocho Shinobu pondered for a while.

"Sister."

"Hmm?"

"Can I go with you on this mission?"

Kocho Shinobu's words surprised Kocho Kanae a little. She understood Kocho Shinobu's heart as they looked at each other, and then shook her head.

"No, Shinobu, the Demon Slayer Corps clearly stipulates that Pillar-level members cannot act with ordinary members... Moreover, this mission is too dangerous for you. It has been confirmed that several members of the Demon Slayer Corps have lost their lives due to encountering evil spirits. This time, the opponent is likely to be the Twelve Demon Moons, so I am a 'Pillar'-level swordsman to investigate."

The strongest swordsman in the Demon Slayer Corps is the "Pillar", and the strongest among the evil spirits is the "Twelve Demon Moons", which means that the Twelve Demon Moons are benchmarked against Pillar-level swordsmen.

To become a "Pillar", the ordinary promotion method is to kill fifty evil spirits. However, because the whereabouts of evil spirits are uncertain and the journey takes a lot of time, it is normal to spend several years or even more than ten years to become a "Pillar" in this way.

The extraordinary promotion method is to kill an evil spirit of the Twelve Demon Moons level.

The ultimate goal of the Demon Slayer Corps is to kill the ancestor of the demons, and ordinary demons are just a bunch of trash that can be easily created by the Demon King. Only killing the Twelve Demon Moons can be considered to be a serious injury to the Demon King.

Therefore, the Demon Slayer Corps will not let go of any news suspected to be related to the Twelve Demon Moons.

Waving goodbye to Shinobu Kocho who stayed in the Butterfly House, Kanae Kocho set off under the guidance of the Crow.

...

A small wooden house, this is the home of Afeng and Tiansuke.

However, after Nightingale came here, this wooden house is not just the home of Afeng and his family.

"The basic treatment has been completed. Next, you have to come here every day to change the bandage. Try not to let water touch the bandage. And, most importantly... You can't move this arm hard within this month."

"Thank you! Thank you, doctor, you are simply a goddess!"

In the hut, a young man with a bandage on his left arm sat in front of Nightingale, constantly expressing his gratitude to Nightingale.

"I'm neither a doctor nor a goddess, I'm just a nurse, please don't make the mistake."

Looking at the young man's happy look, Nightingale seemed not very satisfied, "Don't let your guard down, it doesn't mean that everything will be fine if you cut off the damaged part, health is not such a cheap thing, your problem is not serious but very troublesome, it is a series of small problems accumulated over the years, so you must spend more time to recuperate next."

"Yes! I will pay attention."

"That's necessary, because if you can't remember my instructions, I will use a way that is easier to impress you to let you remember that all the existence that hinders treatment is my enemy, even if it is the patient himself who hinders treatment!"

After saying all the necessary instructions, Nightingale frowned and shouted loudly: "Okay! Get out of the way after the treatment is completed, don't delay the treatment of the next patient! There are so many lives waiting for me to save! There are so many diseases waiting for me to eliminate! But there is an urgent situation that cannot be delayed even for a second! Next one!"

After Nightingale took over, Afeng's home became the only hospital in the village... The word "hospital" may not be accurate, after all, the environment of this place is too simple, and there are not even professional equipment.

But there is also good news. The conditions here are much better than those in Nightingale's tent when he was alive. After all, there is no need to worry about the sudden flying shells. The most important thing is that Nightingale, a servant of the archer class, can take out any kind of medicine directly from the package as long as she knows the approximate ingredients. It is super convenient, and even some small equipment such as syringes can be taken out directly.

"Every time I see Sister Nightingale in this state, I feel so amazing... Even the tallest Thai uncle in the village looks so well-behaved in front of Sister Nightingale."

In the corner, Afeng was carrying Tianzhu on his back, staring at Nightingale with eyes shining with admiration.

Focused by Nightingale's amazing spirit, Afeng lowered his voice consciously.

"How can he not be well-behaved?"

Seichiro stood behind Afeng with a strange look on his face, unable to hold back the desire to complain in his heart, "Three days ago, he was planted in the soil like a carrot, and his head was down..."

This village is not too poor. At least with mutual help, no one will starve to death, but it is far from being rich. As long as the disease does not seriously affect their daily life or even their lives, they will rely on their bodies to get through it instead of going to the nearby city to find a doctor.

Over time, the villagers here have basically accumulated some diseases that cannot be seen on the surface, and they are used to it. At least they are still alive and can work, right?

However, Nightingale could not accept this situation. In her eyes, everyone in the village was a "patient".

Seiichiro was just the first one. Nightingale's character did not know what restraint was. On the first day, she arrested five villagers for forced treatment, and directly "punished" those who resisted.

If it were not for Afeng's testimony, and if Nightingale's treatment did have a significant effect, the whole village might have joined forces to take up arms and drive Nightingale out as a madman... Although even if they really did it, they could not beat Nightingale alone.

As more and more people were treated by Nightingale, the villagers' attitude towards Nightingale gradually changed from suspicion and vigilance to gratitude. The simple villagers wanted to repay Nightingale, but Nightingale's attitude was...

"I don't do this for your gratitude and reward! Get out of the way! You delay my treatment of patients!"

Even those "difficult and complicated diseases" that the villagers knew would be easily solved by Nightingale's medical knowledge that transcended the times.

What moved the villagers the most was that Nightingale didn't charge for her medical treatment!

Some people wanted to force some money out of their conscience, but Nightingale drove them out with the money, for the same reason: it delayed her from treating people.

However, these people didn't seem to give up. They turned around and gave the money to Afeng, because Nightingale was brought to the village by Afeng, and Afeng was closest to her and most familiar with her.

Compared with what Nightingale had done for everyone in the village, her weird personality could be more or less ignored. Some people even regarded Nightingale as a goddess who saved people from suffering. Since she was a goddess, it was normal for her personality to be different from that of humans, right?

These villagers didn't believe in the existence of evil spirits, but regarded Nightingale as a goddess. The idea was quite interesting.

"Really? How can she treat me?"

Slapping his bandaged thigh, Seiichiro seemed to recall the situation at that time and smiled with mixed feelings, "I would believe it if she said it was murder. I didn't experience any treatment that a patient should have. Instead, I felt like a wild boar that was about to be cooked. The most painful part of the whole process was when she pressed me on the bed. I felt that all the bones in my body were about to be crushed by her..."

"But...Sister Nightingale was also doing it for Uncle Seiichiro's good at that time."

Afeng's position was obviously on Nightingale's side, "If you want to blame, blame Uncle for not cooperating with the treatment."

"I'm not blaming her. On the contrary, I'm so grateful to her. I didn't expect that my leg would recover one day. I thought this sick leg would accompany me until I died. Hahaha! I haven't felt so relaxed for many years. I'm a little uncomfortable."

While the two were talking, suddenly... a painful scream came from Nightingale.

"Gah!"

"Bear it! As a grown man, can't you even bear this little pain? The pain now is for your future health! You should be thankful that you came early and there is still treatment. If you delay it for a few more years, I can only suggest that you undergo amputation."

Listening to the intermittent screams, Afeng and Seiichiro looked at each other, and then laughed together.

Chapter 574 Leave knowledge for the people of this world.

The sky gradually darkened, the moonlight was bright, and the night was quiet.

There are no modern electric lights, and everyone in the village goes to bed very early. Coupled with the legends about evil spirits, it is likely that the sky will get dark and everyone will go back to their homes and not go out.

In the world of "The Slippery Son", the night belongs to the monsters, but here, the night seems to belong to the evil ghosts. But the difference is that the monsters at least abide by the rules, and there are also the sly ghosts who restrain them, but the evil ghosts do not understand What is convergence.

The green evil ghost had forced his way into Azuan's home before. It is conceivable that if the evil ghost defeated Yang Yang, they would definitely tear this apparent peace to pieces immediately.

"Sister Nightingale, you have worked hard today too."

Knocking on the door, Ah Xiu walked in with a cup of steaming tea.

When she first learned Nightingale's name, Ah Xiu couldn't pronounce Nightingale's name at all. Feeling ashamed, she practiced many times behind her back before she could say it as naturally as she did now.

"Sister Nightingale, what are you..."

Relying on a candle, Nightingale was writing at his desk. It was not until Ah Sui opened the door and walked in that Nightingale stopped writing and showed a gentle smile.

"Ah Xiu, thank you for making tea for me. I still like this kind of drink that can reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, is antibacterial and anti-inflammatory, and provides oral health care... I am writing a letter."

"write a letter?"

Ah Xiu's face showed some concern, "Are you writing to someone?"

Regarding Nightingale, Ah Xiu found that he knew almost nothing.

She only knew the other person's name and that he was a nurse and was good at treating diseases... However, she didn't know anything about Nightingale's past or her interpersonal relationships.

And...she didn't know why Nightingale appeared in that forest at that time.

"Since it is a letter, of course it is written to someone. I want to send the letter to my..."

Suddenly, Nightingale paused and blinked her blank crimson eyes, "My...who am I going to send something to?"

"elder sister?"

"Ah, sorry, I was a little distracted... please forget about it."

Facing Ah Sui's concerned eyes, Nightingale smiled gently, then folded the letter on the table in half and stuffed it into her pocket.

Nightingale probably understood what was going on... Unlike Nightingale who was in the Berserker class, Nightingale in the Archer class had a personality closer to that of her school days, that is, before she rushed to Crimea. Occasionally, Nightingale would She can speak some words that she used to say when she was a daughter of the gentleman class, and she even subconsciously wants to send letters home.

Maybe it's because he's too tired... Because treating diseases is a delicate job, Nightingale followed the instinct and memory of this body and spiritual base to act. As a result, in the dead of night, he subconsciously wrote The letter has arrived.

'Even if I write a letter, I don't know who to send it to. It's impossible for me to send the letter to the Nightingale's family in this world... and at this time, the Nightingale in this world should have just passed away. Bar? ’

It's a little embarrassing... The history of [Phoenix Phoenix Feather] is not good. I actually didn't know Nightingale's birth time and death time before. It was only after integrating Nightingale's spiritual base. know this information.

Nightingale also pretended to accidentally learn from the villagers that the current time was Meiji 43, which is equivalent to 1910.

Judging from the environment and temperature, it seems that it has just entered autumn.

According to the memory in the spiritual base, Nightingale died on August 13, 1910. Although the world is different, the background story like this should not change much.

In other words...if she had come earlier, she might have been able to come and see her by herself.

Well... think about it, forget it. Nightingale was almost ninety years old before her death. It would be troublesome if she went to meet someone and was scared by them.

"Sister Nightingale, aren't you tired?"

There was worry in his tone. After putting the tea on the table, Ah Xiu looked at Nightingale and said, "These days, you have been treating everyone in the village. Even when you sleep, you are dealing with those diseases." After tidying up the house with the tools... Speaking of which, I have almost never seen you sleeping, sister. Do you really sleep? "

"The disease will not rest, and it will not give me time to rest. Without steely perseverance, it is impossible to win the battle against disease on the battlefield. In order for humans to one day be able to defeat the disease, no matter what kind of difficulties and I can overcome any trial."

The words were resounding, and Nightingale showed a will that was tougher than steel, but the next moment she showed a gentle smile under Ah Sui's gaze.

"However, rest is necessary. Don't worry, I will never force myself because I know very well that my poor condition is irresponsible to all the injured patients who trust me. What's more, the patients also need enough rest. Being able to retain the physical strength to fight the disease and overcome the pain is not my job alone... Human beings will definitely defeat the disease, and my mission is to promote this process. "

The light of the candlelight shines on Nightingale's profile, making her already delicate face even more stunning, giving her a charm that makes people unable to look away.

Ah Sui was fascinated by it, her eyes were like the stars in the night sky, shining with the starlight called longing.

Striving for the future of all mankind... It feels so great!

Children don't understand so many twists and turns, especially children like Ah Feng who have never left the village. The world of children is simple, simple and lovely.

An adult wants to be a doctor, maybe because being a doctor can make a lot of money, maybe because the position of doctor is not easily eliminated by the times and has a good prospect.

However, if a child says he wants to be a doctor, the reason may be simply "wanting to cure diseases and save lives" or think being a doctor is very handsome.

At their age, they are easily influenced. A vision when they are young may bloom into bright flowers when they grow up.

Many major choices made in life are due to impulse. At this moment, Ah Feng's admiration and longing in her heart also turned into impulse, causing her to open her mouth involuntarily.

"Sister Nightingale, I..."

When he met Nightingale's crimson eyes, Afeng's whole body froze, and the words he was about to say became...

"I... Can I stay by your side and help you while you treat the villagers?"

It felt a bit abrupt to want to learn nursing knowledge directly, but if it was to help, it should be no problem...

When Afeng was thinking this, Nightingale spoke directly to dampen her enthusiasm.

"No! Treating and saving lives is not a joke. Any mistakes and omissions will be infinitely magnified. If you hold a fluke mentality and only have half-hearted determination, you can't go to this cruel battlefield!"
