Chapter 173
"No, I want to go with you too!!!"
"No, Takeo, you need to stay and take care of your younger siblings."
"Shigeru isn't a child anymore, he can step up and take care of his younger brothers and sisters... and if the elder sister stays, the two of them should be able to take good care of Hanako and Rokuta."
"No! You! Can't!" Tanjiro Kamado, who was trying hard to pull his brother away from him, said with all his strength, "Mao will only be eight years old after the New Year. He's still too young, so you have to stay home... Besides, Aki also said that ghosts are very dangerous. Countless ghost hunters die every year. I want to train with a trainer just to do something with my ability."
"Brother can do it, so can I." Kamado Takeo held his brother's waist tightly, and his voice became "heart-wrenching" because of the pulling of the two brothers, and it was full of gunpowder.
"Besides, he killed my mother, I want to avenge her." The boy's tone was filled with discomfort, sadness and hatred towards Muzan Kibutsuji.
"I'm the older brother, leave this matter to me." Tanjiro Kamado tried to talk calmly with his younger brother, but it was obvious that his younger brother didn't want to cooperate at all.
…
"Ah, it's started again in the next room."
Qingxi, who was ordered to stay in the room and whose period had not yet ended, looked down at the amulet that had been scrapped. She raised her hand to cover her forehead and murmured in despair.
"Do you want to rest for a while?" The silver-haired boy with expressionless face took the amulet from her hand and asked calmly.
He put the discarded amulets into a large box, which was already filled with half a box of discarded amulets like the one he had just put in.
These are the amulets that Qingxi has failed to make in the past few years, and this is the second box.
She felt the spiritual power in her body and found it was quite abundant. She shook her head and said, "No, I should be able to make a few more."
After a pause, she stared at the door with a resentful look, "I just hope those two brothers will stop quarreling."
However, it is impossible not to quarrel.
They had been arguing for two days straight in order to be able to go to the trainer to practice with their brother, and even their younger brothers and sisters came up to persuade them but it was of no use.
After destroying another amulet, Qingxi finally realized that she might not really have the ability to enter a state of meditation like an old monk, so she chose to give up.
"Cattail Otoshiro, we're coming in."
Outside the shoji door, the young man's quick voice was heard, followed by the sound of the shoji door being opened.
She wrapped herself tightly in the quilt, and as the last person in was about to close the shoji door again, Qingxi said, "Um, Mr. Jiang Xue, could you please not close the door completely for a moment? It seems to be snowing outside again... Just a little, I also want to get some fresh air."
Being locked up in the room for four days, even if there was someone to talk to, it would still be boring.
Jiang Xue Sawamonji, who walked in last, paused. Thinking of the instructions given by Yagen Toushirou before he came here, he silently sighed in his heart at the other party's attentiveness.
Even the patience of the Shinsengumi is estimated so accurately.
Thinking this in his mind, Jiang Xue Sawamonji silently opened the shoji door to a suitable size so that the cold wind outside would not be blown into the house, and Qingxi could see the snow scene outside the house.
"Hasebe made udon noodles, master, would you like to try it?" Catfish Otoshiro put the tray in his hand on the small round table and pushed it towards where the girl was sitting.
Qingxi looked down at the bowl of udon noodles with a rich variety of side dishes. She looked up and asked, "Where is he?"
She might not be familiar with the sword-wielding men who came out this time, but Yasakiri Hasebe was not among them.
Whether it was from Tsurumaru or Yaken, the only understanding she got of him was chef, chef, chef.
Although after seeing the real person now, she felt that the word "awkward" should be added after the label of "chef", but one thing has not changed, that is, he always does it himself for the things she asks him to do. For example, if he made udon noodles for her, he would generally deliver it personally...unless he was intercepted by someone halfway.
And things turned out just as Qingxi had imagined.
I only heard Cattail Tail Toushirou say, "We need help with the reconstruction. There's a patient riot at the Butterfly House. The two Miss Butterflies are busy and aren't here right now. We don't have enough manpower." Then he was pulled away by Tsurumaru, along with Okutari, Kokarasuma, and Suzumaru.
Yaken and Horikawa went to Chouya."
Qingxi understood everything. She pointed at the udon noodles and asked, "Does anyone want some? This bowl is a bit too much. I don't think I can finish it."
Catfish Tail Toushirou shook his head. "The Butterfly House happened to be making red bean rice cake soup today. I ate two bowls and I'm very full now."
Qingxi looked at Jiang Xue Smonji and Kotobuki Toushirou. Seeing Jiang Xue Smonji shaking his head, she decisively took out an empty bowl from her food backpack and split the full bowl of udon in front of her into two.
Hobane Toushirou, who was forced to eat half a bowl of noodles without even refusing, said: "..."
Just watching the two of them slurping noodles was quite awkward. Catfish Tail Toushirou took the wooden box that Bonebami Toushirou had put aside and opened it. "Are these... all the amulets that failed to be made?"
Qingxi glanced over there and said, "Well, there was something a little difficult to produce, so so much was scrapped."
As she spoke, she took out another box containing a discarded amulet and showed it to them.
Looking at the box filled to the brim with discarded amulets, Fujishiro smacked his lips. "Wow, that's a lot."
"There's nothing we can do about it," said Kiyoki, who insisted on not admitting that he'd been tricked by Tsurumaru Kuninaga. "Tsurumaru's explanations were vague, and there wasn't a tutorial or anything. My understanding of spiritual power is just a stream-of-consciousness, unconventional way of figuring it out. I had to figure everything out on my own, so it's only natural that I'd end up with a couple of boxes of scrapped amulets."
However, these are no longer useful, so I'll find time to dispose of them next time."
Catfish Tail Toushirou rubbed his chin with his right hand and stared at the amulets in the two boxes for a while. Suddenly, he clapped his hands as if he had thought of something. "Master, if you don't want these amulets, please give them to me."
Qingxi, startled by the boy's sudden surprise, blinked and said, "Of course I can, but what are you going to do with them?"
The amulets in the two boxes were just ordinary amulets in the eyes of people who could not perceive spiritual power. However, if they were replaced by sword men, they would be able to tell at a glance that they were poorly made and ordinary amulets that would not provide protection even if they were worn on their bodies. She was really curious about what use Catfish Otoshiro had for these failed products.
After confirming Qingxi's consent, Catfish Tail Toushirou held the two wooden boxes in his arms. He smiled and said, "Take them back to the brothers."
Qingxi: “???”
It's becoming increasingly incomprehensible.
"It's basically just that sometimes things become popular in Honmaru. Sometime ago, Master, you had the expeditioners bring back a lot of goodies, and Akita suggested putting the goodies you gave us inside the amulets as good luck charms. So, handmade amulets became popular in Honmaru," Cattail Fujishiro explained. "Putting other things inside the amulets, and these amulets from you, Master, are the most suitable. I think they'll be gone by the time I get them back."
Qingxi's mouth twitched, "Isn't that too exaggerated?"
Moreover, these are all obsolete amulets with no defensive function.
Don't act like she's some rare and precious treasure, or she'll be too embarrassed.
"I can't guarantee for others, but my brothers can really do it." Cattail Fujishiro promised.
However, Qingxi didn't want his guarantee at this moment.
At the Kamado family next door, after two days of "communication" between the brothers, Takeo Kamado still did not follow his brother.
On the day when he sent his brother away, he looked sour all over. Seeing him like that, Qingxi gave him a reminder.
She said, "I can't go to the trainer to learn the breathing method, but this is the Butterfly House. Let alone the five major breathing methods, aren't there many people who can learn the derived breathing methods?
Your brother doesn't let you go to study with him, so can't you stay in Butterfly House and learn from him?
A large group of men can only stay in the Butterfly House every day and can't go anywhere else. If you come forward and ask them to train you, will they be unwilling?
Your work at Butterfly House is also easy to arrange. You can just go to the dojo here and be a sparring partner. You can work and study at the same time."
Kamado Takeo's eyes widened: "Is it still possible to do this?"
"Why not?" Qingxi asked back. "As long as you complete the work you are responsible for, who would restrain you in your free time?"
Takeo Kamado's face was no longer dark, he was in high spirits and his eyes were shining.
Qingxi added fuel to the fire, "Come here secretly, and when you learn it, scare your brother."
Kamado Takeo's face was filled with eagerness to try. He clapped his hands and said, "Okay! Let's do it! I want to give my brother a scare."
Qingxi: "Rengoku House is not far from here. The former Flame Pillar is currently retired. I'll take you there later. That way, if you have any questions in the future, you can shamelessly go and take his class. Well, Mr. Rengoku is quite enthusiastic."
I heard from the people in the Butterfly House that ever since he retired from the position of Pillar, Mr. Purgatory, who has become much more idle, has often brought Mrs. Ruka to show off his love, which has made everyone in the Butterfly House feel uneasy. She thinks it is time to throw a burden to the other party to buy a little time.
After a pause, she added, "Let's all go together. Mrs. Ruhu likes girls very much. Nezuko and Hanako are so cute. Mrs. Ruhu will definitely like them."
Mr. Purgatory and his group of girls are about to arrive to "capture" Mrs. Ruka. Don't thank me too much.jpg
