Demon Slayer: The Swordsman Coming Out of Sagiri Mountain
Chapter 23 Infiltrate
After the practice in the dojo was over, Lin Yu returned to his room and began to organize his backpack, with some sweat oozing from his palms.
He knew that what he was going to do next might be beyond the scope of his ability and be dangerous.
So far, he has not encountered a ghost.
It will take at least one day to go from Butterfly House to Fuji Mountain. Tomorrow evening, Zhenmo will enter the mountain to participate in the assessment.
Spread out the package, there are a dozen cans of solutions filled with liquids of different colors, ropes, hook locks, darts, and crossbow bolts are all available. These are all purchased with the help of well-meaning people. Some towns have strict laws and regulations. You can't use violence blatantly. He prepared these things when he went to the country to do as the Romans did.
"Maybe it will be useful."
Lin Yu decided to bring these tools. Firstly, ghosts are also entities and cannot escape the laws of physics.
The Demon Killing Team has very strict control over the Japanese knives. Even the Japanese knives for the assessment in the hands of Makoto only received the goods a few days before going out.
"Needs attention."
"1. Unrelated people cannot enter Fujiji Mountain, and will be stopped by the Yinbu hidden nearby. It is necessary to find these people in advance as much as possible, and then avoid them to sneak in."
"2. Unknown information about the Ghost Killing Team: All the ghosts are produced by Oni Mai Tsuji. He can detect the movement of the Ghost Killing Team through the eyes of each ghost. Prematurely exposing one's own existence in front of Oni Wu Tsuji, even the members of the Demon Slayer Squad cannot be completely trusted. There is no evidence that other than those few others, there has been no other Demon Slayer Squad swords in the past thousand years. Therefore, this action must be kept secret, so that no one can know my appearance and origin."
After confirming these things, Lin Yu packed the package.
He didn't put on the aqua-blue bathrobe, but put on the disaster relief mask given to him by Zuo Jin before his departure, and then disappeared into the vast moonlight.
……
Rattan hits the mountain.
This is a pitch-black mountain range, from the foot of the mountain to the foot of the mountain, the wisteria flowers are in full bloom, very prosperous.
Under the huge arch stood two little girls in kimonos. Their faces were almost identical, and they could only be identified by their hair color, one white and one black.
They held lanterns in their hands, kept gentle smiles on their faces, and spoke strangely without emotional ups and downs.
"Welcome everyone to tonight's final selection for the Ghost Slayer Squad."
"In this vine attack mountain, the ghosts captured alive by the ghost swordsmen are imprisoned, but they cannot leave, because the wisteria flowers that are disgusting to ghosts are scattered all around, but after this road, the wisteria flowers will no longer Blooming, everyone's task is to survive here for seven days, and those who survive after seven days will pass the final selection."
Mako unconsciously clenched the Japanese sword around her waist, and beside her was the dignified Butterfly Shinobu.
Apart from the two, there were quite a few swordsmen who participated in the selection on the spot. They were all trained by various trainers and had various backgrounds in breathing techniques, but everyone's expressions were very gloomy.
Behind those two little girls there is a road leading to darkness, and no one knows what kind of monsters are hiding behind that.
……
Standing at the bottom of the mountain at this moment is a tall man, wearing a monk's robe with the words Namo Amitabha on his body, blind in both eyes, and a scar on his forehead.
And standing beside him is Butterfly Kanae with a nervous face.
"Ah, what a regrettable choice, after you, did your sister also embark on this tragic path?"
"Mr. Sorrow, may I trouble you to say something auspicious at this time?"
Butterfly Kanae, who has always been very good-tempered, was rarely in a hurry. She clasped her hands together and kept crying. The two-meter-tall burly man chattered endlessly, which seemed to be a bit angry.
Rock pillars, mournful Islet Xingming.
Style, Butterfly Chanae.
"Two column grades appear at the final selection site. It's rare to see such a thing."
Behind the two of them, a group of Hidden Ministry personnel hiding in the grass chattered and chatted, and all cast reverent glances.
"Are the two pillar-level adults arguing?"
"What arguing! Don't talk nonsense, Master Yanzhu and Master Huazhu have a very good relationship. This time Xiaoren took the exam, Master Yanzhu asked for leave on purpose to come back. You don't know the inside story. Master Huazhu and her sister Xiao Shinobu was rescued by Lord Yanzhu, and their relationship is like that of father and daughter..."
"Speaking of which, what about Shingo? Why did that kid go to take a pee and haven't come back for so long?"
"Who knows?"
After a long time.
"It's so strange, why hasn't that kid come back yet?"
"Would you like to send someone over to have a look?"
The movement here naturally attracted the attention of Beiming Yu Xingming. Like ordinary blind people, after losing his vision, his sense of hearing and smell became more sensitive than before. Coupled with the assistance of breathing techniques, he basically He can hear clearly what the people next to him are saying.
"what happened?"
The personnel of the hidden department all have their own responsibilities. During the assessment period, they are also responsible for the guarding work around Fujiji Mountain. However, if there is Zhuji present, there is no hand letter from the lord. In special circumstances, the command authority still has to be handed over to Column level hands.
The member of the hidden department hiding in the grass said: "Master Yan Zhu, one of our team members has not returned since the beginning, but this is not an important matter, we have sent someone to look for it just now."
Beimingyu Xingming frowned slightly.
The staff of the hidden department have always been dedicated to their duties, and this situation should not have happened.
A moment later, two members of the Hidden Clan rushed over from the other side of the hillside, and one of them was holding a man who had been stripped naked and only his briefs left.
"Really!"
The man who was stripped naked was the missing Shingo, who fell into a coma at the moment.
Beimingyu Xingming slapped him helplessly, but it had no effect at all.
"He should have taken some kind of drug for forced hypnosis."
Butterfly Kanae opened Shingo's eyelids. His breathing was very even, but his pupils were very loose, like a person who had just died. This was obviously drug poisoning.
The spread Shingo team members were stripped of all their clothes, uniforms, and the accompanying Japanese swords, none of which could be seen, only a pair of underpants.
"Master Yan Zhu, he became like this when we found Team Shingo."
Bei Mingyu Xingming frowned and asked, "Where's the crow?"
"it's here."
The team members spread out their palms, on which lay a black crow that had been stabbed in the abdomen by a dart, and had been dead for a long time.
Ravens are a communication tool for everyone after becoming a member of the Ghost Killing Squad. They generally do not participate in the battle at the beginning of the battle, but hide in the dark to record the situation.
He knew that what he was going to do next might be beyond the scope of his ability and be dangerous.
