Chapter 79
The situation on Qingxi's side was clearly seen by the people standing on both sides of the bluestone road, so when Harada Shinnosuke left, the two of them walked towards where she was.
"General?" Yagen Toushirou said in a low voice.
"Let's eat first." She let out a long breath, as if to expel all the depressed and bad mood she had been feeling recently.
In the evening, she planned to lie down in the tent early to continue her spiritual power practice.
After the two of them confirmed that Qingxi was fine, they sat back on the small stool.
After the three of them finished their meal and Yagen Toushirou took the initiative to wash the dishes, the souls that had originally dispersed from the cemetery came back one after another. They did not go to disturb the three people on Qingxi's side. On the contrary, some of them kept watch for them.
Although the cemetery has never been damaged by ghosts because it happens to be included in the range of Zhu's night patrol, people still feel uneasy here at night, and it is a good thing to have someone to help keep watch.
Nothing happened overnight.
The temperature in the summer forest in the early morning is still a little cool. After taking care of herself in the tent, Qingxi put on the haori that she had taken out yesterday to use as a sunshade at the request of Yagen Toushirou and was then let out.
After leaving the tent, she was arranged by Yagen Toushirou to sit on a small stool with a cup of warm water in her hand, which was no longer hot. As for him and Tsurumaru Kuninaga, they began to dismantle the tent.
It can be said that her arrangements were made very clearly.
After the two of them packed up the tent, Qingxi folded up the tent, ate the breakfast provided in her gourmet backpack, packed up the last few remaining things, cleaned up the fire, and then they left.
Qingxi is not someone who likes to stop doing things halfway unless she has to. So even though she has an eye accident now, she didn't really abandon them all and deal with her own affairs first as Yagen Toushirou said yesterday. In the end, she still needs to go back to the clinic.
Ueno Arata looked at the girl whose eyes were wrapped in gauze again. He was speechless for a moment. After a while, he found his voice again. He did not ask her personally, but pulled Yagen Toushirou to ask: "What happened to this girl's eyes?"
"There was a small accident. The Admiral's dialysis eye can't be closed." Yagen Toushirou didn't say anything else, but simply stated the result of the incident to Ueno Arata. "There are too many people in the clinic. Until the Admiral can solve this problem, this place is no longer suitable for the Admiral to live here."
Ueno Arata looked at the little girl on Tsurumaru Kuninaga's back, then at Yagen Toushirou, and he couldn't help rubbing his teeth in pain.
"So what are you going to do with her? Yaken, will you and Tsurumaru go with her? Does the lord know about this?"
Ueno Arata asked questions one after another, his eyes fixed on Yagen Toushirou, as if he would shamelessly fall to the ground and hug his thighs and cry if what the other party said next did not satisfy him.
Just as Qingxi thought yesterday, the departure of one person who could perform surgery on the wounded in the clinic would already make him, the person in charge of the clinic, feel very stressed. If two people left at once, Ueno Shin felt that he could resign to the lord.
"Tsurumaru will accompany the admiral to live with Mr. Beiming Island." said Yagen Toushirou.
As for the deadline, it may be that the eye condition has been resolved, or the general has decided not to come back. It is hard to say.
"As for me, I'll stay in the clinic," he continued. "But, Dr. Ueno, have you considered bringing a few students out?"
Ueno Shin nodded, "I have the same idea now."
For example, if there were one or two more doctors in the clinic who could perform surgery, he would not feel so stressed when facing today's emergency.
"Also, I will take some of the ravens that may have mutated from the crow house over there to continue feeding them. I will ask the breeders here to feed the rest for the time being.
"Also, Dr. Ueno, could you please contact Ubuyashiki-sama for me? I have something here that might be useful to ghost hunters, and I hope he can take a look."
Ueno Arata was stunned. "Of course I can, but what do you mean by that, Aki, you're just going to leave here as soon as you finish the work at hand? Do you... really have that idea?"
The news came a little suddenly, making him a little confused.
"No, I'm just still considering it and haven't decided yet." Qingxi corrected.
However, from the tone of your voice, I can already tell you apart from the Demon Slayer Corps.
Ueno Shin thought silently in his heart.
However, he didn't say anything and helped her find the headquarters of Xuan Ya.
When the Anbu personnel came to pick up Qingxi, Tsurumaru Kuninaga also went with them.
When he arrived at the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters, he picked up Kiyoki and headed towards Hiroma, where Ubuyashiki Yoya often met with the pillars.
Tsurumaru Kuninaga paused slightly as he looked at the person standing outside the eaves, then gently patted the girl's back and said, "Master, Mr. Rengoku is here too."
Rengoku Makijuro was speechless when he heard Tsurumaru Kuninaga's reminder which was obviously meant to be funny.
What's going on? Are you worried that I will jump up and stab the girl who commented on me in front of my son?
If I really had that idea, I would have come to him with a knife in hand long ago. Why wait until now?
Qingxi, who had the same understanding, patted his head, signaling him to be quiet and not cause trouble.
Tsurumaru Kuninaga let Kiyoki take pictures of him. He grinned in the direction of Rengoku Makijuro. His smile was so bright that it made people feel like his skin might be a little itchy.
After putting the girl down and facing Ubuyashiki Kōya, Tsurumaru Kuninaga stood behind her and served as his tool.
Qingxi opened her mouth, but suddenly realized that it was very inconvenient to keep her eyes closed, so she untied the gauze wrapped around her eyes. But the next moment she saw Ubuyashiki Kakuya's face, she cast her eyes aside and said, "Sorry, everything I see now is... too penetrating.
I came here this time because of the leather armor."
Qingxi said as he pulled out some animal skins from his gourmet backpack. "I had a demon hunter from the Demon Slayer Corps wear some of my leather armor for testing. It can completely defend against sneak attacks and attacks from ordinary demons, or block most of the attacks. These are just samples. Take a look at them and see if the Demon Slayer Corps needs them."
She took out a lot of samples, the most of which were probably the skins and scales peeled off from large animals, soft and hard, made of steel, iron, stone, a mess. These were all things she had found in the world of gourmet food that she felt it was a pity to throw away, but could not sell for much money if she kept them, so she finally stockpiled them bit by bit.
Now, if the Demon Slayer Corps needs her, she has a place to deal with it.
Hearing the change in Qingxi's tone, Ubuyashiki Yoya considerately didn't ask questions right away. Rengoku Makijuro casually picked up a piece of iron shaped like a feather and said, "My lord, let me try it."
Ubuyashiki Kazuya, who also wanted to see with his own eyes the defensive power of the things that Qingxi took out, nodded.
Soon, a wooden doll with an iron plate on its chest was erected on the open space where they were.
Rengoku Makijuro stood in front of the wooden doll, his body slightly bent down, his hand on the hilt of the knife.
Concentrate on breathing. Breath of flame. Second form. Rising flames.
Click.
Looking at Rengoku Makijuro Qingxi, who had the iron sheet and the wooden man chopped in half, his eyes were dead.
Just as she was about to say something, she saw through the man's clothes... She quickly closed her eyes, then she reminded him, "If the demons encountered by the Demon Slayer Corps are all as powerful as Mr. Purgatory, then I think the members below Rank A and Rank B can all go to bed."
Wouldn't it be better to use all the resources of the Demon Slayer Corps to train more promising members?
Rengoku Makijuro, who also thought of this matter, showed an embarrassed look on his face.
Thinking of the feel of the Nichirin Blade when he chopped it down, he said earnestly, "My lord, the materials that Axi brought here can still provide some defense against attacks from average-strength demons. Why don't we take them to the tailor and have them make some leather armor first? Let's have a small number of Demon Slayer Corps members try out the light armor first?"
If all the demon hunters in the Demon Slayer Corps are really to be equipped with protective armor, it is certain that they will be tried on a small number of people first.
Moreover, these are not the most important issues.
Ubuyashiki Yoya spoke up, "Aki, may I know how much raw materials you have for making protective armor?"
He needs to confirm the approximate quantity of raw materials that Qingxi can provide before making the final decision.
If there aren't enough raw materials, it won't be possible to promote it to all members of the Demon Slayer Corps.
Qingxi pointed at the food backpack and looked it up and down, "The quantity is still quite good.
However, since it's a disposable item, if there aren't any quality issues and you're sure the original user can't use it anymore, it's best to recycle it... Anyway, you can make your own judgment on that matter."
What does it mean to make sure that the original user can no longer use it?
To put it more bluntly, the ghost hunter died.
"I understand." After getting the answer he wanted, Ubuyashiki Kakuya gave Qingxi a reassuring smile, but the girl lowered her head and closed her eyes and did not see it.
"Rest well for the next period of time. If there's anything, you can ask Jiro to pass on a message to Tianyin." He paused and added, "Later, if it's confirmed that the materials you have, Axi, are useful, someone might go to Xingming."
Qingxi nodded, "I understand."
She told Ubuyashiki Kōya about the leather armor, and also told him that she was going to transfer some of the crows in the crow house that showed signs of mutation to Gyomei's house on Beiming Island to continue feeding them. Once it was confirmed that they had successfully mutated, she would have them report to the headquarters. After that, it seemed that she had nothing else to do.
"Then please allow me to leave first."
Qingxi, who had nothing else to do, prepared to leave. She wanted to leave early and pack up early, and go to Xingming's place on Beiming Island early. She urgently needed an environment with few people, so that she could deal with the problem of her eyes.
Ubuyashiki Kazuya: "Go ahead."
