Chapter 099
"I didn't expect that you, Sister Kanae, would become a pillar."
A series of events were connected together, and Qingxi couldn't help but follow when Beiming Island Xingming was summoned by Juejia to go to the headquarters.
However, she did not go to the headquarters, but went to the clinic. The distance between the clinic and the headquarters was not far. She asked Beiming Island Xingming to tell Butterfly Kanae after the meeting that if she was free, she could go to the clinic for lunch. She would prepare a big meal for her in the crow house behind.
Looking at the group of people sitting casually under the eaves... she had never expected that what was obviously just a simple small gathering would become a big gathering.
She reached out, took the bottle and wanted to pour a glass of plum wine into her glass.
When it's cold, there's nothing wrong with drinking a little wine to warm up your body.
However, before her fingertips touched the bottle, another hand took it away faster than hers.
Rengoku Kyojuro took the opportunity to pour a glass for Tsurumaru Kuninaga, Uzui Tengen and his father, and finally he stuffed the remaining liquid in the bottle into Tsurumaru Kuninaga's hand along with the bottle.
After doing all this, he showed a big sunny smile to the girl who was looking at him. Senjuro took the bowl in front of her and filled it with a bowl of pufferfish whale head soup.
That was almost like telling her to stop thinking about drinking and drink some soup to nourish her stomach.
Qingxi: ...

After watching the interaction between the three children, the others turned their attention and silently fell on the Flame Pillar, the most senior among them.
Rengoku Makijuro was a little embarrassed to be stared at.
Since Tengen Uzui and Kanae Kocho have become pillars, they also know about Kiyokuni's situation.
That's why the two of them looked at him with strange expressions.
Rengoku Makijuro didn't look at the others, but looked up at the sky alone, "Hmm, that's the brat's own business..."
The literal translation is: The brat just plunged into it, what can I do?
What's more, both Ruka and Chijuro have a very good impression of Aki, and with a two to one ratio, he has even less say.
Girls are more delicate than men, after all. After discovering that Kiyomi still hadn't noticed Rengoku Kyojuro's feelings for her, Kocho Kanae pretended to be clueless and replied with a smile, "Well, actually, I didn't expect to become a Pillar either. I was quite surprised when the lord personally came to invite me."
At this point, she remembered something and said, "By the way, Ah Xi, your eyes are better now. Do you want to go back to the Butterfly House?"
Qingxi paused while drinking soup from the bowl, a blank expression on his face. "Die, Diewu?"
"Dr. Ueno will be assigned to a clinic elsewhere of the Demon Slayer Corps to provide assistance. He will be accompanied by two doctors here who have experience in limb reattachment surgery," she said.
"The Demon Slayer Corps has several other clinics besides this one," explained Kocho Kanae. "However, all the experts who can perform amputation surgery are in this clinic. However, many demon hunters are injured far away. If they are sent here for treatment, they will miss the best opportunity, or even lose the chance of treatment altogether. At this meeting, Dr. Ueno volunteered to take three doctors to other clinics to provide training."
Considering that there are many branch clinics and the doctors have different qualifications, it is difficult to determine the return date, so I will take over here.
Of course, if Xiaonin passes the Fujishi Mountain selection, she will probably be assigned here as well."
Remembering that the Butterfly Sisters came from a medical family, Qingxi no longer had any doubts about Ubuyashiki Kōya's arrangements and asked, "Will Shinobu-sister participate in today's Demon Slayer Corps auditions?"
"Yeah." When mentioning his sister, Kanae Kocho, his mood became better and better, but that good mood was immediately tinged with a hint of melancholy.
"Sister Kanae?" Qingxi was confused.
"Ah, as for Shinobu, he is undergoing special training now." said Kanae Kocho.
Seeing Qingxi curiously waiting for her to continue, she had no choice but to continue: "Shinobu is only 12 years old this year. Because she is petite, her wrist strength with two hands holding a knife is not enough to chop off the demon's head.
Although we had different trainers, we both learned Water Breathing and its techniques. I just developed Flower Breathing from it, and Shinobu...
Water Breathing doesn't suit her, so she's currently learning Flower Breathing from me. However... if Shinobu still hasn't found a demon-killing method that suits her before the selection, neither I nor her trainer will approve of her participating in this selection."
After glancing at the sister-con, Qingxi retracted her gaze and said, "As for Shinobu-sister, given her irritable and stubborn temper, her special training must be very difficult."
"Yeah, she's super serious. It's hard to say no to her," said Kocho Kanae. "But I believe Shinobu will be able to overcome this difficult problem for her."
"Yeah," Qingxi also responded, and then she changed the subject: "But, I'm very curious about your Flower Breathing, Sister Kanae. Just hearing the name makes me feel that the moves will be very gorgeous... I want to see it."
"If it's gorgeous, shouldn't I be the god of sacrifice?" Someone interrupted immediately after hearing the word gorgeous.
Qingxi looked at Uzui Tengen, who had a handsome face but insisted on using garish makeup, adorning his hair with sparkling diamonds, and painting his nails in all sorts of colors. She put down her bowl of soup, turned to Rengoku Kyojuro and Rengoku Chijuro, and said in a grave tone, "Kyojuro, Chijuro, you must remember that natural beauty is the real beauty."
After she finished speaking, her eyes fell on Tsurumaru Kuninaga, "If you really want to put on makeup, then find someone who specializes in it to help you."
People with clumsy hands should know themselves and understand the truth.
…Even though you’re rubbing your face, please be a little kinder to it. She could almost hear the sobbing.
Finally, you were obviously not like this before you became a pillar. You didn’t wear makeup and looked clean and refreshing. Why did you change your style after becoming a pillar?
Have you really developed some weird hobby?
The two owls from the Purgatory family, who only understood the superficial meaning of Qingxi's words, nodded blankly, while the others who understood the hidden meaning in Qingxi's words secretly glanced at Uzui Tengen's face and then looked away.
Don't laugh, as a Pillar/Swordsman, this level of pain is completely tolerable.
Uzui Tengen: ...
Cat cursing.jpg
He reached out and smashed his head against the girl who was happily being fed by Kanae Kocho, the two brothers of the Rengoku family, and Tsurumaru Kuninaga.
As for the strength, you can tell by listening to the deafening cry of pain and looking at the red spot on the forehead.
Qingxi covered her forehead and widened her eyes. What happened? Should she be beaten for telling the truth?
She watched as the food box containing pufferfish and whale sashimi was moved in front of Uzui Tengen at some point, and saw that he took away a lot of slices every time he took a chopstick. She picked up the chopsticks and started to pick up some, not just for herself, she also encouraged Kyojuro and Chijuro to pick up some as well.
If you can't beat him, then eat all his favorite foods.
Can three kids with poor fighting skills pass the pillar?
How is this possible!
How could the god of magnificent rituals allow this?
So, next, everyone around silently watched a three-on-one chase game between four pairs of chopsticks centered on the food box, and it ended with the trio losing.
Qingxi: Emmmmm, it’s too annoying and too difficult to deal with.
She put down her chopsticks, took Rengoku Kyojuro's hand, and said solemnly, "Kyojuro, you will become a pillar in the future too." Her blue eyes kept flicking to a certain gorgeous ninja, "And then, we'll get our revenge."
"Hmm, I get it." The boy, who was also aroused by the fighting spirit, opened his eyes wide and said in a loud voice.
The forgotten old father Rengoku Makijuro: ... Brat, have you forgotten that I, your father, am the Flame Pillar? What will I do now that you have become a Pillar? Go home and retire?
Qingxi, who had made a "promise" with her friends, felt that such a threat might not have much impact on Uzui Tengen. She turned to them and said, "Kyojuro, Chijuro, do you like puffer whale sashimi? If so, we can have a small gathering next time and I'll prepare a puffer whale feast." She glared at everyone as she spoke. "One won't be enough. Kyojuro won't even be full. We can get seven, eight, ten... This kind of food is only caught once every ten years, and it's a rare ingredient in the human world."
The girl's tone was full of Versailles, but everyone else knew who she was targeting, so they just watched the fun.
but--
Some people just don't fall for it.
Not only did he not fall for it, he even snorted with disdain.
Qingxi: “…”
Butterfly Kanae chuckled softly and whispered, "Aki is going to be mad."
Qingxi was really angry. She wanted to roll up her sleeves and beat him up herself, but she couldn't because she was just an ordinary person.
Emmmm, of course I am stupid, my brain is full of water.
Gourmet cells, gourmet cells, gourmet cells, she missed her gourmet cells, she missed punching a kid...
Tsurumaru Kuninaga was happily drinking plum wine when he suddenly noticed that the spiritual power of the person next to him suddenly surged. He was so scared that he dropped the wine glass in his hand, drew the sword at his waist and slashed at Uzui Tengen.
While chopping, he did not forget to comfort the furious girl: "Master, calm down. It's not good for your body to release your spiritual power without control. I will help you chop the sound column."
Tsurumaru Kuninaga and Uzui Tengen started fighting, and a dinner party organized by Kiyomi gradually developed in a strange direction.
Well, of course, there are also people who regard the battle between the two as a livelier show, and there are also people who watch it seriously like the two brothers from Purgatory. For them, a battle between masters is a rare sight. Even if the battle between these two is more of a competition, it is still rare. Can't you learn a lot of experience from it?
Even though he knew that Tsurumaru Kuninaga was the sword god Uzui Tengen, he didn't feel much fear when facing him because he didn't feel any murderous aura from the opponent. It was not until he clearly realized the rich experience of the famous swordsman in battlefield combat as they fought that he became serious.
Finally, even breathing techniques were used.
The loud noises, like thunderclaps, made Qingxi cover her ears. "Quick, stop those two who are getting more and more angry. There's a clinic in front of us, and they'll disturb the wounded over there."
If the drug research center in front was performing surgery at this time, and their hands shook because of the noise here... that would be a lot of fun.
As soon as she finished speaking, someone took action.
The gentle smile on the face of Butterfly Kanae, who was standing between the two of them, gradually changed. "You two, this is my area now. Please take care of our injured teammates."
Tsurumaru Kuninaga knew when to stop, sheathed his sword, and quickly sat back in his original seat. After making sure that Qingxi wasn't so angry that his spiritual power was surging, he said to the returning Kocho Kanae, "Sorry, I won't do that next time."
He was happy to make the promise, but Uzui Tengen, who had his battle interrupted, looked a little unhappy.
"I could sense you weren't using your full strength just now," Uzui Tengen said after eating a while while sitting on the floor. "Why are you only in logistics and not a demon hunter?"
"Of course that's because—" Tsurumaru Kuninaga was stunned, put an arm around Qingxi's shoulders and said in a long voice. "She is my master."
Seeing the other party frown, he added, "Also, the sword's eyesight at night is not very good."
"Of course, I can't say I'm blind." The important things still needed to be explained. "It's just much worse than during the day, and ghosts don't come out until dark. They have opposite natures, so compared to killing ghosts, I'd rather stay by my master's side and protect her safety."
Uzui Tengen could accept Tsurumaru Kuninaga's explanation, but, "What about Yagen Toushirou?"
"Yaken is fine." Tsurumaru Kuninaga stroked his chin, "But aren't Dr. Ueno and the others going to other clinics of the Demon Slayer Corps? If he runs out to kill demons, this clinic, well, now the disc house will be missing a chief surgeon."
Uzui Tengen turned his gaze and fell on the girl who, after being comforted, was talking to the two brothers of the Rengoku family about the delicious dish in the hot pot.
He had seen what that girl was capable of.
Some people have to stand on a stool or lie on the bed to treat the patient.
Especially when he learned of Harada Shinnosuke's death, he performed two operations in one go at a faster speed than the other two surgeons... Of course, he looked pretty miserable with the bleeding eyes afterwards.
In short, why not just leave Yagen Toushirou and bring back the girl whose eyes no longer have any problems to take his place?
What Uzui Tengen wanted to express couldn't be more obvious. Since you have the talent, just stay in the right position and don't think about being lazy.
Fortunately, he was smart enough to know that in the past six months, she had been relaxing except for treating her eyes.
At this moment, she didn't show any intention of coming back, so after staring at her for a while, he snorted and lowered his head to eat.
"Ashi, are you coming back?"
Although she doesn't have the same strong desire as Uzui Tengen to capture the person and take him to the clinic to exchange for him, Kanae Kocho also hopes that Kiyoki can come back to help her.
The fact that three experienced doctors were transferred away from Butterfly House at once was already stressful for her as a new manager, but if Yagen Toushirou were to transfer to the front line and become a ghost hunter at this time, Butterfly House would be seriously short of experienced doctors.
If the wounded cannot be treated quickly enough, a major accident may occur.
So, she needs help.
That's why Kanae Kocho asked Qingxi again.
Qingxi, who was eating, made a move.
At this time, Rengoku Makijuro interrupted, "Hmm, if it's a swordsman, he'd rather be in the battlefield than in the clinic."
Qingxi's words that he didn't want Yagen Toushirou to become a ghost hunter were instantly blocked after hearing his words.
Men of swords should be on the battlefield, not in the rear...
She pursed her lips and subconsciously turned to look at Tsurumaru Kuninaga. She wanted to see if he had the same idea.
However, at this time Bai He did not tell her any answer, but just smiled at her with his big white teeth.
Qingxi, who was almost blinded by the good teeth, turned his head back.
After a while, she said sullenly, "Give me some more time."
Uzui Tengen tutted his words. "From the looks of it, you seem to have made your decision. Why wait a little longer? Or will you regret it after a while?"
Qingxi glared at him unhappily and explained, "Yagen Toushirou is a short swordsman. Even if he has reached the ultimate state, he can still be easily injured if he goes into battle without a gold, silver, or green egg. Therefore, I will definitely not let him switch to the ghost hunters until I have a life-saving amulet made for him."
"Huh?" Tengen Uzui didn't understand most of what she said.
Well, not only did he not understand, but no one else understood either.
At this time, the man's gentle chuckle attracted everyone's attention.
He waved his hand. "Nothing. Those eggs... well, you can pack them up like knives, using them similarly to the armor you're wearing now."
"What about the amulet? Is it the amulet I was thinking of?" asked Rengoku Makijuro.
"Almost." Tsurumaru Kuninaga nodded. Seeing that they were all a little interested, but thinking of his master's impressive learning progress, he still poured cold water on them. "That's difficult to make. The master is still experimenting, so, um..."
He gave them a look that said, "You know what I mean."
Uzui Tengen's eyebrows twitched. You guys, just pamper her.
After complaining in his heart, he finally didn't continue talking about this topic.
