A short ghost who looked like an old man and had a big bag on his head spoke. His name was Hantengu, and he was Upper Rank Four.
"Really? Haha, I am obsessed with my art, maybe I have neglected it a few times." Living in the pot is the "Upper Five", the jade pot.
Douma's attention shifted to the other side. He leaned over and said, "Ah, Daki, it's been a long time since we last met. You are still as dazzling as before. How is your life in the flower street? Is it interesting? If you find it boring, do you want to come to my religion?"
"Lord Douma, my life in the flower street is very interesting." Daki smiled gently.
The man in front of her was the one who brought it and her brother to hell, so even the hot-tempered Daki knew to smile.
"Oh, really? That's such a pity!" Douma pouted and said disappointedly. "Then, Daki, have you and Jifu Taro eaten any oiran in recent years? Come to think of it, I haven't eaten an oiran-level woman for a long time."
"If you want, Douma-sama, you can come to the Flower Street. I have stored a lot of good food."
Douma said, "Storing food is a good idea. Oh, it reminds me of a kind woman a few years ago... I wanted to let that woman live well, but unfortunately she found out the truth. I spread my hands, feeling helpless."
It narrates this matter with a sad expression, but if you look closely into Douma's eyes, you will find that there is no sadness at all.
At this time, Kokushibo, who had been silent for a long time, spoke: "Lord Muzan... has arrived."
moment.
In this Infinite Castle, the Upper Moons saw Muzan Kibutsuji standing upside down. He was wearing a vest and doing his potion experiments with his bare hands.
The upper rank and Muzan Kibutsuji are upside down. In this infinite city, this situation is normal.
The reactions of the upper ranks were different. Kokushibo was sitting as usual, Douma was half-kneeling with a smile on his face, Hantengu was prostrating himself, with the jade pot floating on his pot, and Dakimaki and Kifutaro were both kneeling on the ground.
"The waxing moon is vacant. Akaza is dead."
When Muzan Kibutsuji said this, his face was calm, as if the dead people were not his subordinates.
"Is it true? Is Akaza really dead?" Douma said with his eyes wide open.
"Dou Ma, did I allow you to speak?"
"Yes, I will dig out my own eyeballs to atone for my sin."
"What's the use of your eyeballs? Akaza's death was not what I expected. I originally thought that the first person to die in this upper limit month was Jifutaro, and I always thought that it was the stupid kid Daki who would hold Jifutaro back. But I didn't expect that Akaza would be the first to die.
Forget it, I am already very disappointed with you, so let it be. "
Muzan Kibutsuji held the test tube in his hand and said in a cold tone, looking extremely disappointed.
"Hey? Why are you saying such sad things again? Have I ever let you down?" Douma said curiously.
"The Ubuyashiki clan still survives in this world. Let alone the Blue Blossom. Even the successor of the Sun's Breathing is still surviving in this world. It's been hundreds of years, and nothing has been done?
Even so, you are so fragile. It has only been 106 years since the last waxing moon. A new waxing moon is needed.
I really am beginning to wonder why you exist." Muzan Kibutsuji kept his back to them.
"Hey, hey, hey! Sir, please calm down, sir, please calm down!" Bantiangou lay on the ground and said cautiously.
Kokushibo spoke up: "Lord Muzan, are you talking about the successor of "Breathing of the Sun"? "
"Yes, the successor of "Breathing of the Sun", Kokushibo, your brother still left a legacy in this world. However, Akaza did a good thing when he died. He killed the successor.
Really, I like "unchanging", why do we always have to "change"? Since the Ubuyashiki clan has become a hiding insect, then we should just live in the gutter.
That's all. I'll give you a mission. Use all your strength to find the hiding place of the Ubuyashiki family. Bugs should look like bugs. If you don't want to live in this world, then just die."
Muzan Kibutsuji spoke coldly.
"only."
Almost all the "Upper Strings" lowered their heads at this moment.
Muzan Kibutsuji left.
In other words, he was sent away by the Pipa Girl.
Douma approached Kokushibo and asked, "Lord Kokushibo, the creator of "Breathing of the Sun" is your brother? Is he strong? Why do I feel my body trembling when I talk about this!"
Kokushibo's six eyes looked at Douma: "He can kill you with one sword."
"Ah, is it so terrifying? What a pity, I've never seen it. Akaza is so lucky to be able to fight against the successor of "Breathing of the Sun". Ugh, what a pity."
Kokushibo ignored Douma. It knew this man's personality.
"Breathing of the Sun"?
What a nostalgic name! I guess there is only one heir left in this world... I killed most of them hundreds of years ago.
Kokushibo touched his waist, where there was a flute. I don't know what he was missing...
Chapter 71: Secret Sword: Swallow Returns
The night in the metropolis is lively. At least Li Mo changed his clothes and walked out of the house, and saw that the streets were full of people.
The colors of neon lights illuminate the streets, and radios can be seen in convenience stores on the street. The smell of oily smoke from car emissions wafts into the nose, and many people coming and going wear headphones and hold mobile phones in their hands. Women are all wearing fashionable clothes, forming a beautiful landscape that makes people happy.
Standing next to the vending machine, Li Mo bought a can of coffee with coins, looking at everything that was familiar yet strange.
I'm really back...
I really wasn't dreaming.
Li Mo, where he is standing now, is a metropolis called "Tokyo", which can be seen from the tall buildings around him. This place belongs to the "21st century".
After being used to seeing Taisho-era style buildings, seeing the concrete jungle-like high-rise buildings again feels quite subtle...
Before I knew it, I finished the coffee in my hand, and only reacted when I couldn't pour anything out of it anymore.
After returning home, Li Mo changed his tattered clothes and took care of Butterfly Chanahui's hemostatic bandages. Then, he went out.
You couldn't see this kind of scenery in the Taisho period... At least, in Tokyo during the Taisho period, women liked to wear bathrobes and cover their bodies with fabric. But now, you can see a lot of white thighs.
In the first year of going to Demon Slayer, Li Mo was thinking about coming back all the time. Using electrical appliances is much better than using charcoal. But in the same year, after meeting Tanjuro's family, the thought of returning faded.
Maybe, I am used to it? Maybe, I don’t feel I belong to this world.
After all, to this world, I am also a time traveler.
But when I really came back and saw the familiar light of the electric lights, I suddenly felt a sense of security.
At least, a ghost won't jump out from a dark corner and attack you in the next second.
Peace, it’s great.
He casually threw the empty can into the trash can. Li Mo patted his cheek to wake up his consciousness.
"First of all, what should I do? As expected, I should go buy a cell phone first and then go eat."
The cell phone I brought with me during the Taisho era was still usable after being chased by a bear on the first night. But after two or three years, the battery has long been dead. Now it is gathering dust in the system's inventory.
——This is the function he discovered later. He can put his own things into the inventory.
Li Mo needs a new phone.
At this time, the magic of money is reflected. When Li Mo came out of the Sony store, he already had a new Sony mobile phone in his hand.
Turning on the computer was unfamiliar to him at first, but after the interface appeared, he became proficient in the movements.
How many years has it been since I last touched my phone? Two years, or three years? Thinking about it, it feels like a lifetime ago.
Li Mo ran to a ramen shop and ordered a bowl of pork bone ramen. In fact, he was starving. Upgrading could heal all the injuries on his body, but it could not heal his hunger.
After fighting with Akaza for most of the night, plus the one or two hours of traveling before that, I hadn't eaten for nearly a day.
I have such a hard time.
After not eating for a long time and the consumption from the battle, Li Mo felt like he could eat a whole cow. Later, he suddenly felt that he was really missing out by not going to the buffet. Now his appetite is much bigger than before, so he can definitely make back the money by going to the buffet.
What followed was that Li Mo ate nearly ten bowls of completely different ramen in a row before walking out of the ramen shop.
I ate ramen during the Taisho era, and I am still eating ramen in the 21st century... Why don't I eat Chinese food? I haven't eaten Chinese food for a long time!
Walking on the street, looking at a shop labeled "Maocai", Li Mo couldn't help but think about this question.
Is it because of rigid thinking?
"That's unacceptable."
……
……
Li Mo's accommodation in Tokyo welcomed the light again. The boy stood in the entrance and stretched, then lazily changed his shoes into indoor shoes. He staggered into the living room and sank into the sofa, not wanting to move at all.
——I’m so tired.
I don’t know why, but after relaxing, Li Mo suddenly felt too lazy to move.
When I think back carefully to the past two or three years, I wonder…how could I have worked so hard.
In the Demon Slayer world, being diligent is totally unlike myself.
So weird...
"By the way, the system still has something to figure out. Let's see what the so-called treasure chest key is."
Li Mo opened the system interface. It was square and pretty good-looking, much better than the dog-gnawed appearance at the beginning. The treasure chest key should be in the inventory. But the moment he opened the main interface, he was attracted by the bottom line.
——“Copy”.
Seeing these two familiar words, Li Mo immediately thought of a way to go back. The first Demon Slayer world he experienced was just a copy, right?
system?
Unfortunately, this rigid system is a piece of junk and cannot hear my own voice at all.
Li Mo clicked on "Copy".
A new interface appeared, with a lot of blank space. Li Mo's attention was attracted by the text.
——“Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba (Two Turns)”.
A strange time unit appears, why is it a turn? Is this a turn-based RPG game?
System repairs, new functions, being able to return to the world of Demon Slayer and pull Muzan out to bask in the sun, this should be something to be happy about.
But why, why? Why is the unit the turn?
"It's broken, isn't it? This system is broken. Oh, no, this system was broken in the first place... Could it be that something went wrong when it was being repaired? No, it should be... it should be, right?"
Considering that I know nothing about the system, it seems like it’s okay for something to go wrong?
