Chapter 47 : The Third Form : Prajna Strings Following the guidance of the crow , thin ...
Following the guidance of the crow , Bo Yezhu and his companions successfully arrived near the repair shop . The lights were brightly on there , and it was obviously not time to get off work yet - no , they were probably working all night , just in shifts .
This is the case in all factories in Tokyo .
There are not many buildings near the repair shop . The closest one is another small station with some bento shops or ramen restaurants , as well as a ticket office .
The air in the wild is originally fresh , but because it is close to the repair shop and the station , and trains are coming in and out , the air is mixed with the pungent smell of gasoline and rusty metal .
The moon was hanging overhead , and there were many dark clouds tonight . The lantern in the real person 's hand illuminated a section of the road ahead . They were walking on a small road , the ground was relatively flat , and there should be many workers passing by here on weekdays .
However, the two people did not go into the repair shop .
Standing not far from the repair shop , out of sight of the workers inside , Uroba Nagisa surveyed the shop and said to Masato , " It seems the train incident did n't affect them . "
The real person nodded . " Because this is just an isolated incident , the Infinite Train will probably be back in service soon , if no problems are uncovered during tonight 's investigation . "
" Want to go over ? "
" Let's take a look around , I seem to smell the breath of a ghost . " The real person frowned and looked back at the path they came from . The moon just happened to hide in the clouds , and there was a quiet darkness behind him .
As soon as he finished speaking , there seemed to be a faint rustling sound . Bo Yezhu frowned , looked at the real person , and quickly ran towards the place where the rustling sound came from .
The bony palm fell on the hilt , and Bo Yezhu grasped the hilt . With a " swish " , a cold light flashed , and the Sun Wheel Sword was unsheathed cleanly and neatly .
An evil ghost appeared in front of them .
The noise just now was obviously made on purpose . Seeing the two humans being attracted over , the evil ghost was overjoyed - he had really walked into a trap .
But soon , he realized something was wrong . How could these two humans be so fast ?
The knife in the short- haired young man's hand actually made him feel a little fear . He looked carefully and found that the fear came from the blade , which had the breath of his kind , the smell of death !
run !
The evil ghost was still conscious and realized that the visitor had ill intentions , so he immediately gave up the idea of having a big meal and turned around to use blood ghost magic to escape .
His blood magic is related to concealment , which gives him a huge advantage over humans . After it is activated , humans will subconsciously ignore his existence and die in his hands without anyone knowing .
However, unlike his imagined escape by casting blood magic , the next second , a large hand firmly grasped his shoulder , pinning him to the spot . The evil ghost 's face changed drastically . How could it be possible ! His blood magic should be almost invincible !
He turned around in horror and saw the blue - haired young man 's emotionless , heterochromatic pupils reflecting his facial expression , even the pupils that he thought were shrunk due to fear were clearly illuminated . The young man was holding a lamp in his hand , and the human face showed strange stitches .
It slowly emerged under his gaze !
The evil ghost opened his eyes wide in shock . He hadn't realized what this was , but it was impossible for a human to experience such a strange phenomenon .
He hadn't even had time to think for half a breath when the short- haired young man 's blade was already in front of him . The pitch - black blade did n't even refract a single ray of light , as if it were covered in ink .
The weight on his shoulders suddenly lifted , and a look of joy appeared on his face , but it was followed by a sharp pain in his neck .
The pitch-black blade pierced his neck , his head rolled on the ground , he opened his mouth , a sharp and hoarse cry came out of his throat , and his body began to turn into filth .
The pain, which had not yet dissipated, caused his body to twist on the ground .
Bo Ye Zhu sheathed his sword , his silver hair reflecting a faint light . He turned and looked at Zhenren : " Luckily you dodged quickly , I was afraid I would have hurt you . "
The real person straightened his slightly crooked collar and said calmly , " Don't worry about me , just keep swinging your sword . "
" I ca n't swing a knife at Zhenzhen . " Bo Yezhu laughed and looked around . This place was remote, with only some weeds and bushes around , but he could see the faint lights from the station .
This greatly pleased the curse spirit . He took his lover 's hand and whispered , " Let 's go around the station and see if there are any more ghosts . There are plenty of humans over there . "
Bo Ye Zhu responded . The death toll on the Infinite Train was very small , and the information they had was also limited .
It is still unknown whether those dead humans were targeted by evil spirits before boarding the train or while on the train .
Yin is still investigating the identities of the dead humans and speculating on the possibility of murder . It will probably take another day or two to get the results .
Let ’s first rule out the possibility that there are ghosts hiding in the station .
Walking all the way to the station , you can still see pedestrians catching the night train . It seems that the passenger flow at this station is not as bad as they imagined .
The Immortal took Bo Yezhu 's hand , his brow furrowed slightly as he said , " There's a ghostly presence ... but it 's not strong . It seems like it just checked out the area and left . "
" Scouting ? The station is being targeted . Let 's go and ask if there have been any missing persons at the station recently . " They stood in front of the station , and Bo Ye Zhu looked at a small bento shop nearby , which was run by an old lady .
Urobe Nagisa 's face was very deceptive . He let go of Masato 's hand , hid the Nichirin sword at his waist , walked towards the bento shop , and then stood in front of the old lady .
The young man smiled gently , ordered a bento , and paid for it . While the old woman was looking for change , he lowered his voice and asked , " I 'd like to ask , has anything strange happened at the station lately ? "
The old lady who was giving out change paused , raised her head , and her gaze fell on the neat uniform of the Demon Slayer Corps member under the haori of Nagisa Ueba .
She was stunned for a moment , not knowing what she was thinking . During the break , the real person came over . The expression on Zhu Ling's face was still indifferent , and he turned his head to look at Bo Ye Zhu .
The old lady looked at the real person and saw the Demon Slayer Corps uniform that was exactly the same as Nagisa Usugano 's .
She seemed to have made up her mind and whispered : " A passenger is missing near the station , but the police came and found nothing ... Are you ... " Her unfinished words became quieter and quieter , as if she had died down .
Bo Ye Zhu still had a faint smile on his face and simply said , " We are here to investigate . Thank you for the information you provided . "
The old lady handed him the change , her expression a little anxious , and said : " I think it's a monster , a man - eating monster . Do n't disbelieve me , I 've seen it before . " Her hoarse voice became even more difficult to distinguish after she lowered it , as if she remembered something , and her tone was a little confused.
Bo Yezhu comforted her : " It 's okay , we will come here during this period , do n't worry . "
He adjusted his movements , and the Sun Blade at his waist appeared .
" Grandma ! — — " a tender girl's voice sounded , and a little girl holding a huge box came trotting over .
Bo Yezhu turned sideways and looked at the girl . It could be seen that she was the granddaughter of the old lady who sold bento boxes . The box in her arms was empty . She must be carrying the bento boxes to sell at the station .
His eyes flashed , and Bo Ye Zhu took a few steps back , signaling the real person to leave .
The blue- haired curse spirit nodded , still holding the lamp in his hand , and asked in a low voice if Bo Ye Zhu needed help carrying the lunch box .
Bo Ye Zhu shook his head : " Let's find a place to solve it . "
They walked into the station . There were not many people in the waiting hall , but it was quite crowded at this time .
" Last train ! Is there anyone who wants to buy a ticket ? " the conductor shouted from a distance .
After finding a place to sit down , Bo Ye Zhu opened the still - hot bento and exclaimed , " It looks delicious . "
The real person sat next to him , with the lantern at his feet , looking thoughtfully at the huge clock in front of the waiting room and the ticket price list next to it .
After a while , he suddenly said , " The last bus is leaving fifteen minutes early . "
Uroba Nagisa looked up : " Is it related to the Infinity Train ? "
" The Infinity Train is still in the repair shop , and the train will leave soon, " the real person turned his head to look at the platform , and saw a train still waiting . He didn't know if it was the last one , or it was possible that the last train had not yet arrived at the station .
" I 'll go take a look and be right back . " The real person stood up .
There were more people on the platform , and the lights at night were not very bright , and the moonlight was not good , so the figure of the curse spirit quickly disappeared in the crowd .
As Bo Ye Zhu chewed a piece of rice ball , he once again sighed that the bento sold by the old lady was quite delicious .
Suddenly , a noise came from the door . Bo Ye Zhu's face changed . He put his lunch box on the seat and ran towards the noise .
Then he heard the little girl scream .
It’s that old woman ’s granddaughter !
Is a ghost coming ? His brows darkened . This place was not far from the lunch box shop . Soon , he saw a tall evil ghost lying on the side of the lunch box shop .
The little girl 's terrified screams were also heard .
" Stop ! " Bo Ye Zhu shouted , and with a move of his arm , the Sun Blade was instantly unsheathed . He held the long sword in one hand , and his whole body seemed like a sharp blade that had just been unsheathed .
The evil ghost lying in the bento shop also turned his head . He knew the local area better than the previous ghost and recognized at a glance that Bo Ye Zhu was a member of the Demon Slayer Corps . However, he was only afraid for a moment , then licked his lips with a greedy expression on his face .
I heard that the members of the Demon Slayer Corps have even more powerful flesh and blood power !
He immediately left the old man and the young boy who were guarding the shop and headed towards Bo Ye Zhu .
Bo Yezhu finally got a clear look at the ghost . On that overly sturdy body were two strange heads — twin ghosts !
Under the fine silver hair , the orange-yellow eyes narrowed , the muscles on the young man's arms bulged , and a pure black pattern appeared under his ears . He stared at the two-headed ghost , and his eyes flashed , as if the ghost's entire body was exposed before his eyes .
His pupils shrank , but the scene just now was only temporary . The ghost in front of him returned to its previous appearance , and the heart and blood vessels he had just seen seemed to be a flash in the pan .
The two -headed ghost looked at Bo Ye Zhu almost droolingly and launched an attack without hesitation .
The old lady who was cowering behind the lunch shop cautiously poked her head out and saw the two-headed ghost running towards the kind young man . Her heart jumped into her throat .
Uzuba Nagisa held the Nichirin Sword in both hands and bent her body slightly .
In the past , priests would dance at the shrine at the end of winter and the beginning of the new year to pray for good weather , peace for the family , a safe land , and happiness for the people in the coming year .
Holding rattles in their hands , other priests were playing musical instruments under the altar .
The soft string music could be heard from far away in the snowy night .
The orange -yellow eyes almost turned into pure gold . As Bo Ye Zhu looked at the two-headed ghost approaching , the Nichirin Sword in his hand suddenly glowed with silver - white light , and his body moved .
At that moment , it seemed as if a string sound was played .
Silver light suddenly flashed , the blade flashed three times , and the curved blade was swung out continuously . In the silver - white blade light , there was an obvious black flame that came from nowhere .
The first knife cut through the two - headed ghost 's neck .
With the second blow , Qi Qi chopped off the two-headed ghost 's head in half , and its brains splattered all over the ground , without even touching the corner of Bo Yezhu 's clothes .
The third knife cut the two -headed ghost's sturdy body into two halves .
The silver -haired young man stood behind the two-headed ghost 's shattered body , his body still slightly bent , sticky and smelly blood dripping from the blade . He opened his mouth and exhaled a long breath between his crimson lips .
