Chapter 107
Looking at the boy in front of him with his head down and looking listless, Qingxi began to have doubts in his heart.
Do I really have the talent to be a psychologist?
Moreover, the "patients" encountered during the treatment were a pair of brothers.
"Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses. Chijuro, you don't have talent in swordsmanship, so your talent lies in other areas. It's just that it may be well hidden now, and you haven't discovered it yet."
"But father and brother..." Rengoku Chijuro still didn't give up.
Qingxi tilted his head and thought for a moment, then said, "Chijuro, your idea is wrong. It's true, there's nothing wrong with a child inheriting their father's legacy, but have you considered one thing?"
Before he could resolve his own frustration, Rengoku Chijuro's thoughts were drawn to Qingxi's words. He asked, "What, what's the problem?"
"Before Muzan Kibutsuji is eliminated, as the family that inherits the Breath of Fire, you only need to make it your responsibility to eliminate him. But after he is eliminated, what do you think about the future of your Purgatory Family?"
"Consider, consider?" Rengoku Chijuro, who had never followed Qingxi's creative thinking, became dizzy.
"Yes, if Muzan Kibutsuji is eliminated in this generation of the Lord, then the entire Demon Slayer Corps will inevitably be disbanded. Of course, given the Lord's personality, he will definitely not ignore everyone in the Demon Slayer Corps, so he will arrange for everyone's whereabouts by then." Qingxi analyzed for him, "But with the rapid changes of the times, to be frank, if you want to continue to open a dojo as a means of livelihood in the future, the market may not be so good.
After all, as you can see, more and more shops on the street are doing Western business, which will have a huge impact on local business. I think the dojo will also be affected..."
Qing Xila analyzed the situation with him in a random and random manner, and finally concluded: "So, if Chishoulang doesn't have a talent for swordsmanship, then try something else.
Who knows, maybe the Rengoku family will have to rely on you, Chijuro, in the future."
"Military generals bring order to troubled times, while civil officials stabilize the country. I think it's a good idea for you and your brother, one civil and one military," Qingxi said. "No matter what happens in the future, the Purgatory family won't be affected by your and your brother's generation."
Rengoku Chijuro's face looked like he understood, but not completely. "Then, then I'll study hard?"
Qingxi clapped her hands, "That's right, not only should you study hard, but if you have the chance, you should also learn foreign languages."
Rengoku Chijuro whispered: "...Aki-sister, isn't that a little too difficult?"
"It's not difficult. If you don't understand, I'll give you some special lessons!!!" Qingxi said, patting his chest.
She's not bragging. If she was a loser who couldn't even pass the CET-4, then when she arrived in the food world where foreign languages were the unified language, and after Ah Xi gave her three languages for free, she became a master of foreign languages.
It’s definitely possible to teach a Chishouro.
Rengoku Chijuro didn't realize that because of Qingxi's suggestion, he would have to start fighting against the 26 English letters, but after a while his depressed mood improved a lot, and he even felt a sense of pressure because of the words she said that he couldn't quite understand.
It feels like if I don't work hard and only rely on my brother, the whole family will not be able to support itself.
However, he overlooked the fact that the scenario described in Kiyoki's words was based on the premise that Muzan Kibutsuji was eliminated and Ubuyashiki Kōya disbanded the entire Demon Slayer Corps.
To put it bluntly, before Muzan Kibutsuji was defeated, the entire Demon Slayer Corps relied on killing demons to earn a living. Once this goal was achieved, there was no need for the Demon Slayer Corps to exist.
If you think about it more deeply, the government knows about the existence of Muzan Kibutsuji, and therefore also knows about the existence of the Demon Slayer Corps, so it allows it to exist generation after generation.
Because they cannot get rid of Muzan Kibutsuji by themselves, nor do they have the financial resources like the Ubuyashiki family. To be frank, if she were in the government's position, there would be an organization that could help get rid of Muzan Kibutsuji, a scourge that has existed for thousands of years, without them having to pay out of their own pockets, but just giving a little convenience. Why wouldn't they do it?
As for what happens next, if the Ubuyashiki family is not more self-aware, we still have to guess whether they will be abandoned after their efforts have been served.
At least on the surface, if the time really comes when the head of the Ubuyashiki family will disband the entire Demon Slayer Corps, whether this will lead to the transformation of the Demon Slayer Corps behind the scenes is something he needs to consider.
Regardless of whether the Demon Slayer Corps disbands or transforms into a family that may also be on the government's list, whether they come back to continue running a dojo or do other business, they need to perform well.
Since it is a performance, we cannot just fool around and return to the life of an ordinary person. We should also find ways to develop our life in a good direction. At this time, it is good to have a scholar who can speak foreign languages in the family.
The fooled Rengoku Chishou is now eager to try, "After this summer, I will go to school."
Qingxi was stunned and blurted out subconsciously, "So fast?"
Rengoku Chijuro scratched his hair embarrassedly and said, "My brother and I were originally taught to read by our mother, but later when she found out that I had no talent for swordsmanship, she and father discussed it and decided to send me to a school to learn systematically.
So, even if you didn’t tell me, I would still go to school this year.”
"Then you have to work harder, Chijuro,"
After the Meiji era came the Taisho era, a period of great literary explosion. Qingxi stared at Rengoku Chijuro with burning eyes.
Rengoku Chijuro felt uncomfortable being stared at. He couldn't help twisting his body, "What, what's wrong? Sister Axi?"
"Qianshoulang." Qingran spoke softly, but her eyes were getting brighter and brighter. "What do you think of literature?"
Rengoku Chijuro's beady eyes: "Huh?"
"My mother likes reading, and I occasionally find some books that interest me in the study to read." Rengoku Chijuro answered honestly.
"I have a certain reading foundation." Qingxi muttered, and then she smiled and said: "In that case, Chijuro, why don't you set the goal of becoming a writer?
Well, I will start by becoming a famous Japanese literary writer, and then a world-renowned writer."
The Taisho period was short but brilliant. Due to the comprehensive invasion of Western culture, all fields of this period were swept up, among which literature was flourishing. Even the works of writers who emerged in this period continue to influence people until modern times.
If Senjuro has ideas about writing, she thinks it would be a good idea to cultivate him well from now on. It is not impossible that the Rengoku family will produce a famous writer whose reputation will be passed down to future generations.
Rengoku Chijuro: "..."
Is the topic jumping a bit too much?
"Well, um, I can't do that." Rengoku Chijuro waved his hands at Qingxi.
"You haven't even tried, how do you know you can't do it?" Qingxi felt that this was not a good idea. She changed her cross-legged posture to a kneeling posture, crawled to his front, and then continued to sit cross-legged. "If you have no interest in writing, then it's fine, but if you are interested, then don't deny yourself without even trying like you are doing now.
If you have the talent to be a writer and you don't try, you are being irresponsible with your life."
"Take me for example," she pointed at herself, "before I went to the Gourmet World, I couldn't even cook, let alone kill a fish with a knife. But after I went there, my cooking skills improved, and the wine I brewed was so expensive that even the rich would have to spend a fortune to buy it.
I tried and worked hard, so I have the results I have today.
So what about you, Chijuro?"
Rengoku Chijuro was stunned by Qingxi's words.
Looking at the stunned boy, Qingxi reached out and randomly touched his head twice. The force was not strong, but not light either. "I'm just giving you a suggestion. What I said may be very one-sided, but achievements and talents are nothing. If you don't work hard, the last bit of talent will be wiped out over time.
This statement also holds true in reverse: even if you don't have talent, if you're extremely interested in something, with that one-tenth of interest and nine-tenths of effort, can't you carve out a path in it? "
"Of course, there are also people who are very interested in something and have worked hard to learn it, but lack the talent to get started. So this is something you have to consider for yourself."
Rengoku Chijuro was shaking all over after his head was stroked. He was originally listening to the girl's words seriously, but her sudden turn at the end made him laugh and cry.
"What? After talking for so long, Sister Axi, you are giving me, um, chicken soup, is that the word?" Rengoku Chijuro said here, citing what Qingxi had said to him and his brother.
"Yes, yes, then, Chijuro, are you feeling better now?" Qingxi not only admitted it openly, but also asked back.
Pulling down the hand that was stroking his head, Rengoku Chijuro looked at the few extra hairs in the girl's palm that had been pulled out, and his smile froze.
Qingxi, who also saw those strands of hair, put his hands behind his back and pretended nothing had happened.
Rengoku Chijuro's throat choked, and he coughed lightly, finishing what he had just said. "Although I still don't understand some of what Sister Axi said, I feel much better now. Thank you, Sister Axi."
When Rengoku Chijuro said thank you, his tone was very serious, and even the way he looked at Qingxi became different.
Qingxi couldn't help but shiver at the look in his eyes. "It doesn't matter if you don't understand. Chijuro will understand when he grows up."
