Chapter 35 Technology Changes Life
Cheng Xiaoyu vaguely remembered that she just wanted to find Huihara Xiong.
No. 233: [Yes, I will testify for you.]
So, why...
Cheng Xiaoyu stared blankly at the colorful crowd in the green and environmentally friendly courtyard that was almost like a barren mountain forest. "...There are so many people."
It was expected to meet the Wind Pillar on the road, but why was there a Water Pillar secretly following the Wind Pillar with a small package? Behind the Water Pillar were Tanjiro with encouraging eyes, and Inosuke and Zenitsu were hiding farther away from Tanjiro...Except for the Sound, Love, Snake, and Insect Pillars, all the Nine Pillars were here.
Shinobu Kocho's "step-son" Kanao Kurika, who was leading the way, and Cheng Xiaoyu, who was being led, stood at the end of the long team, watching the team move slowly.
For some reason, the Wind Pillar didn't enter the Rock Pillar's mansion, instead slowly pacing the perimeter. The entire group followed the Wind Pillar's movements, and no one in line made a sound.
This team has such a high level of strength that it is impossible for them not to know that someone is following them from behind, but they don't expose it either, as if there is a strange tacit understanding within this team.
Cheng Xiaoyu didn't intervene in this strange chain of events, and quietly asked Kanao Kurihana, "...Is this some kind of internal social culture of the Demon Slayer Corps?"
Kanao Lihualuo shook her head slightly but decisively: "I don't know, I haven't heard of it, this is my first time seeing it. Should I join in?"
This strange cycle ended when the Wind Pillar finally decided on one of the dozen or so calculations on "how to apologize and reconcile with his brother." He stopped and was about to climb over the wall to find the Rock Pillar to find out Xuanya's attitude, when the Water Pillar Tomioka Giyu, who had been waiting for an opportunity to talk to him, suddenly called out to him.
Feng Zhu, who was suddenly approached by someone, punched him reflexively.
It wasn't just the Wind Pillar who had combat reflexes; the Water Pillar also dodged the punch with an expressionless face and a confused mind.
Water Pillar Tomioka Giyu was very confused: he just wanted to listen to the advice of his junior brother Tanjiro and try to get along well with his colleague. For this purpose, he specially brought Hagi mochi that his colleague Fuzukawa Minoru liked, and waited for a long time for the opportunity to talk to him.
But why did Nozomi attack him?
After finally preparing himself to talk to his brother, Fuzukawa Shima was shocked and started to curse: "Tomioka? What are you doing sneaking around behind me?"
Tomioka Giyuu held up the small package in his hand with an expressionless face. "Buzukawa, I brought your favorite Hagi mochi. Let's be friends."
Fuzukawa Miya: Huh?
Others: Huh?
What are you doing?
Tanjiro was deeply moved: "Mr. Giyuu has finally taken the first step in making friends..."
The Flame Pillar thought he was speaking softly, but in reality, he wasn't: "That's it, Tomioka! Keep going!"
Xiazhu seemed to understand: "So this is how making friends works. I've learned..."
Cheng Xiaoyu heard it all and my wife said kindly: No, don’t learn this!
Feng Zhu was so focused on how to apologize to his brother that he realized there was a long line of people following him. He was furious and said, "What the hell are you doing?!"
Water Pillar Tomioka Giyuu still held the snack bag with an expressionless face: "I'm here to make friends with you."
Tanjiro, the Flame Pillar: "I came to see Mr. Giyu (Tomioka) trying to build relationships with the people around him and to encourage him."
Kasumi: "Come and learn how to get along well with the people around you. Join Tanjiro and Rengoku in cheering for Tomioka."
Inosuke Hashibira: "Tanjiro mysteriously ran out early in the morning. I want to see what this guy is doing, hahaha!"
Agatsuma Zenitsu: "I couldn't hold Inosuke back, so I had to follow him because I was afraid he would get into trouble."
Lihua Luo Kanao clenched her sleeves, feeling a little nervous under the gaze of so many people: "I will... lead the way..."
Cheng Xiaoyu: "Kanao Kurika and I are just strangers. We came to find Haibara Yuu to talk to him about taking him back home. But on the way, we saw you guys forming a long line and following Uzui Uzui around the rock pillar's house. I was wondering if this is some kind of in-team culture of the Demon Slayer Corps.
Wind Pillar: "...There is no such thing! Aren't you looking for someone? The gate of the mansion is in that direction, hurry over there!"
Cheng Xiaoyu: "Thank you, you're quite nice. By the way, don't you want to come in with me? I just want to talk to Huiyuan Xiong for a few minutes, I won't keep you away."
Wind Pillar: "No, I'm just here for a walk."
Others: ...You went for a walk specifically right in front of the Rock Pillar's house, right? Even Inosuke didn't believe that.
"Well, I wish you a pleasant walk then." This group of people would probably continue to argue for a while. Cheng Xiaoyu was about to go in alone. At this time, Tanjiro Kamado, who had seen through everything, raised his hand excitedly, "Mr. Busikawa, are you here to see Xuanya? It just so happens that I also want to visit Xuanya. How about going in together?"
It would have been fine if Tanjiro hadn't said anything, but the moment he spoke, the Wind Pillar became even angrier: "Why are you involved here again? Don't get involved in everything, little brat! Wasn't the beating you got before enough?"
Cheng Xiaoyu felt overwhelmed when she heard the two people arguing: "...Sorry, I might be a little allergic to teenage family quarrels. You guys start arguing first and then I'll leave."
If it were any later, the situation here might become extremely chaotic.
Some time before Operation Flower Street, because Cheng Xiaoyu bullied all the cannibals alone (from Muzan's perspective), although the intelligence departments were busy with the magical girl affairs at this time, the members of the main ghost-killing force became idle.
The Nine Pillars simply took advantage of this opportunity to start special training for the team members, especially Tanjiro Kamado and his friends who needed to appear to attract attention because Muzan issued a wanted order. They were directly given special training in hell.
While training with the Rock Pillar, Tanjiro became familiar with Fuzukawa Genya. After hearing about the situation between the Fuzukawa brothers, he encouraged him to have a good talk with his brother.
Then for some reason the Wind Pillar exploded, saying he would poke out Xuanya's eyes to force him to quit the team. Tanjiro, who was hiding in the dark, rushed out to stop and confront the Wind Pillar. The other Demon Slayer Corps swordsmen, who didn't know what was going on, came up to stop them... The scene was very chaotic, and the other pillars all came to stop the fight...
Why did Cheng Xiaoyu know about this?
Because the person who was trying to stop the fight was Yin Zhu, who had just finished discussing the Flower Street Operation with Cheng Xiaoyu... Cheng Xiaoyu and Yin Zhu left the meeting room at the same time.
During that time, Sound Pillar was also very depressed because he was worried about the safety of his wives, so he took this opportunity to have a hearty, fist-to-fist fight with Wind Pillar.
Yes, a ninja and a swordsman fighting each other with their fists.
Cheng Xiaoyu didn't know why they did this, but she respected personal preferences. After all, seriously speaking, many mages also liked close combat.
Afterwards, Feng Zhu privately met with Cheng Xiaoyu and asked her if she had any magic that could make a person unable to fight but would not harm the body. It would be best if it had no side effects and could make people willingly leave the Demon Slayer Corps. Cheng Xiaoyu said, "Brother, do you want to listen to what you are saying?" and dispelled his idea.
The affair between the Wind Pillar and Genya Uzui was known to everyone in the Demon Slayer Corps. All the Demon Slayer Corps members present now had more or less contact with one of the two parties involved. In addition, there were two eldest men, Kamado and the Flame Pillar, who were extremely strong and enthusiastic. There were also two people, the Water Pillar and the Kasumi Pillar, who had life and death regrets with their brothers and sisters. Among these four people, three were Pillar-level. Of course, they could not sit still in this situation.
Can't let your brothers go astray!
I've heard about the situation between the Busei brothers a long time ago. Misunderstandings between brothers must be resolved immediately. Now that Muzan is gone, let's take this opportunity to resolve the misunderstandings in one go!
So the sunny, cheerful and enthusiastic Flame Pillar went straight for it. He patted the Wind Pillar's left shoulder heavily and said, "Kamado-kun is right. Misunderstandings between brothers and sisters cannot go unclarified. I've heard that you've been hanging around here these days and now you're saying you have a younger brother. Are you planning to talk things over with Xuanya but haven't made up your mind yet? Don't worry, leave it to me! I have a younger brother too, and I will definitely help you get along well with him!"
Feng Zhu, whose thoughts were exposed, said: "What are you talking about!"
Can you please say this in private? Don't say it in front of so many people!
The unarticulate Xiazhu: "So are you Xuanya's brother?"
Wind Pillar: "Yes!"
Xiazhu: "So you don't want this brother? After all, you have always treated him badly."
The Wind Pillar was anxious: "I wanted him to quit the Demon Slayer Corps at that time! How could I not want my own brother! How can he kill demons without breathing techniques? I just hope he can live well! "
“…” Silence.
Feng Zhu panted: "Why are you all silent? What I said is true!"
“…I knew it…”
A young man's voice with a tearful tone sounded from behind. With tears streaming down his face, Fuzugawa Xuanya hugged his stiff brother and cried heartbreakingly, "I knew such a gentle brother would not abandon me. I'm sorry!! I misunderstood that you killed mom. I shouldn't have said that about you..."
Feng Zhu was rarely incoherent: "Why are you apologizing, idiot... I never blamed you, I am your brother..."
......
Yanzhu heard the strange footsteps of the person coming in: "Where is Xuanya? He didn't go to answer the door. Why did the guest let him in alone?"
Cheng Xiaoyu: "I told him that his brother was at the door and was about to fight with Tanjiro again. After hearing that, he rushed out."
Running with Chanel.
The burly Rock Pillar sighed, "Amitabha." He was devoted to chanting Buddha's name and was blind. He had been chanting sutras and reciting Buddha's name in his mansion almost all the time since Muzan's death, so he didn't know that the Wind Pillar had been wandering around his mansion all this time.
Although Rock Pillar has never acknowledged Xuan Mi as his disciple, nor has he directed Xuan Mi much, he is actually a very thoughtful person. He often hides quietly to "observe" Xuan Mi's training. It can be said that he has been "seeing" Xuan Mi's efforts in recent times.
Because they were worried that the relationship between the Busei brothers would deteriorate further - there was no way the Wind Pillar was acting too realistically, so they had even explicitly forbidden Xuanya from contacting the Wind Pillar.
Rock Pillar, who was worried about Xuan Mi, decided to go out and take a look. Only Cheng Xiaoyu and Huihara Xiong were left in the simple wooden house.
Cheng Xiaoyu took a sip of tea. "Didn't you say before that your return time was uncertain? Now the magical girls seem to have recovered well. If nothing unexpected happens, I'll be able to take you back to school after the observation period in a month. You can take this opportunity to say goodbye to your good friends. By the way, what have you been doing so mysteriously lately?"
Haibara Yu was very excited: "I was learning breathing techniques some time ago! Although I can't kill ghosts when I go back, I can use my long sword curse tool to kill cursed spirits!"
Cheng Xiaoyu: "You are really ambitious, young man. Which breathing method did you learn?"
Haibara Yu counted on his fingers: "Now the five basic breathing methods only have wind and thunder breathing left... I learned fire, water, beast, earth, and the sun breathing that was passed down from Tanjiro's family! I heard the previous Flame Pillar say that this was the initial breathing method! Unfortunately, the records say that this breathing method has a total of thirteen forms, and Tanjiro's family has only passed down twelve forms..."
Cheng Xiaoyu: "The thirteenth form is to jump from the first form again. The Sun Breathing can be used continuously in a cycle, so Tanjiro's family should have passed down the complete form."
Haibara Yu: Huh?
Haibara Yu: "It's actually possible! Have you ever encountered other users of Breathing of the Sun before?"
Cheng Xiaoyu took a sip from her teacup. "I met one person before, his name was Jiguo Yuanyi. I practiced with him, so I remember him very clearly."
Haibara Yu suddenly realized, thinking that the ancestor of the Kamado family was named Jikuni, and he must tell Tanjiro this news later.
No. 233: [You clearly asked him directly, "How do you manage to spin and jump non-stop, slashing at my head with your sword?" I really want to interview you about how you suddenly came up with the suicidal idea of "I'm going to remove all my talismans and magic powers to experience the intensity of Breath of the Sun"?]
Cheng Xiaoyu replied calmly, "I call this curiosity. A good mage must maintain a strong thirst for knowledge. It's not like colleagues who specialize in physical skills haven't asked us to spar before, saying they want to challenge magic with pure physical skills. In our line of work, we have to be prepared for any potential dangers. We have to learn every skill and every defense, otherwise, who knows what kind of enemies we might encounter during a quest."
And what mage doesn't dream of close combat? Look at Li Hua from the same department; he's already using his staff as a weapon. His pointed staff can hit the enemy's skull without a sound.
Cheng Xiaoyu: "But can you learn so many breathing techniques? Can you remember all the moves?"
Huiyuan Xiong rubbed his head shyly: "I can't say whether I learned it or not, but I did remember it all."
There are so many sets of moves that it would take a long time to remember even the radio gymnastics. Could it be that Haibara Yu is actually a genius?
"I'm not a genius, I'm just being clever." Huiyuan Xiong took out a cell phone with a black screen, "I recorded it."
ah?
Huiyuan Xiong explained: "I had my phone with me when I came here, but when I realized I couldn't go back, I turned it off immediately, thinking that I could save some battery for the memory. I first recorded a complete and standard breathing method, and then asked everyone to teach me a few times, and recorded the teaching process as well. However, after all, it took so long, and the phone's battery died while I was recording the Thunder Breathing..."
Cheng Xiaoyu: ...
Number 233 blew a cyber whistle: [They say technology changes our lives.]
