People are dying on the pillar, and there is no misery at the beginning

Chapter 85 – It's Dark
……

the other side.

The sun gradually slanted to the west, the morning glow at dusk gradually dissipated in the sky, and a night fell slowly.

In the mountains and forests, the hot breath of the day gradually dissipated, and the damp and cool mist gradually began to permeate.

"It's already dark!"

Purgatory Renshoulang looked up at the faint moon hanging in the sky, and subconsciously grasped the handle of the knife at his waist.

The muscles of the forearm tensed up involuntarily.

"Your Excellency! Please follow me, the night is very dangerous."

"Even for me, it's hard to guarantee that I can safely spend a whole night in the wild alone!"

Purgatory Renshourou's expression was serious, and he told Shang Quannai in a serious tone:

"But! I will do my best to protect you!"

Shang Quannai watched Purgatory Renshourou turn around, he subconsciously narrowed his eyes, and looked around Renshourou's body.

The faint crimson arrogance enveloped Renshoulang, although it was very weak, only able to cover the body, but the brightness was extremely dazzling.

This is vindictiveness.

Through keen perception, one can most intuitively understand the standard of a person's combat power.

The fighting spirit around Renshourou in Purgatory now is not as strong as that of Yanzhu Xingshoulang in the original book.

It can even be said to be worlds apart.

But it far exceeds the vindictiveness of Tanjiro who crushed the infinite train period.

"When you are in danger, please run quickly and don't worry about me."

Purgatory Renshoulang turned sideways and continued to walk towards the other side of the mountain: "Ordinary ghosts, I can easily deal with them alone."

"Ah."

"...How many people are there in the Ghost Killing Squad now?"

Shang Quanna recalled Takehara, who was seriously injured during the day, and he asked Ren Jurou.

rustle--

A loud sound came from a distant mountain peak.

As a human being, Purgatory Renshourou couldn't hear such a small voice at all. He was still vigilant, holding the knife at his waist, and walked slowly on the road.

"The current Demon Slayer Team? The total number of members is about sixty."

Purgatory Renshourou raised his head and thought for a while, then answered Shang Quannai.

rustle--

"Ah."

Shang Quannai followed behind him without saying a word, turning his head slightly, his scarlet eyes staring straight at the direction of the noisy sound in the night.

- It's a ghost.

He squinted his eyes, and the cool summer wind at night gently brushed his hair, bringing him information about the surrounding environment.

The transparent world opened instantly, and the outline of the red figure in the distance was constantly moving.

A figure crawling on the ground, deformed, covered in sores and pustules, with thin limbs, was quickly climbing towards this side.

"Huchi! Huchi!"

Thick saliva hangs freely around his mouth, even if it spills on his limbs, he doesn't care.

—What an ugly ghost.

Shang Quannai looked at the ghost through the transparent world, couldn't help frowning, and looked away in disgust.

Ever since he found himself in the Warring States Period 600 years after the Heian Era, he felt restless when he thought that Murata Renzen and the others might have been turned into a handful of loess in the wheel of history.

After seeing the ghost, his mood became more depressed, and Shang Quannai's face gradually darkened.

In front of him, Purgatory Renshoulang was still vigilant about his surroundings. Looking at the dark surroundings, he said solemnly:

"Your Excellency! Let's speed up our pace and rush to the town below the mountain. Let's rest for a night first!"

He turned his head and looked at Shang Quannai seriously, his red-flame hair swaying in the dark night.

Shang Quannai looked at Purgatory Renshourou's eyes that seemed to be shining with fiery orange light in the dark night, with his back to the moon, he shook his head gently:

"No, Hitoshiro."

"That's too late."

Shang Quannai's tone paused for a moment, and he listened to the thin and sticky crackling sound coming from the side:

"Pull out your knife!"

Purgatory Renshoulang raised his head, looked at Shang Quannai standing under the moon, and was a little dazed for a moment.

creak...

Shang Quannai squinted his eyes slightly. He sensed the sound of Xixisuo who was approaching extremely fast, and said softly to Purgatory Renshoulang:

"coming!"

Whoosh-! !

Before the words were finished, the sound of piercing the air passed by, and a long strip of things dashed out of the dark woods!

Translucent moisture coiled around the speeding strip!There is a faint tendency to break through the sound barrier!
"So fast!!"

Purgatory Renshoulang suddenly reacted, his pupils shrank, and the knife at his waist was quickly unsheathed!
click!

Slash hard in the direction of the long strip rushing in!
Swish!
The white moonlight reflected the trajectory left by Purgatory Renshoulang's sword swing, and the pure white light of the sword slashed fiercely on the ground!
"... didn't cut it!"

Sensing the empty waving from his hands, Purgatory Renshourou quickly raised his head in amazement.

He looked to the side, a long strip of things that seemed to dodge consciously.

The viscous liquid hung on the thin tentacles, and the tentacles twisted and twitched randomly under the moonlight!

……

In the dark forest on the side.

The evil spirit was lying on the ground, the huge pustules on his back seemed to be breathing, and several identical tentacles were waving loosely.

"That reaction speed... is faster than the ghost hunters I met before..."

His tentacles extended far to the side of Purgatory Renshoulang, the evil ghost smiled strangely, and licked his face with his long tongue:

"But... it's human after all!"

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh! !

The three tentacles on the back quickly charged towards Purgatory Renshoulang!
The evil spirit seemed completely unaware of Shang Quannai who was standing on a stone beside him and looking at him.

……

Swish!Swish!
Two white blade lights flashed rapidly under the moonlight.

Purgatory Renshoulang held his breath, held the handle of the knife tightly with both hands, and exerted force on his waist. The peak human body played a role at this moment!

"Hey!!" Purgatory Renshoulang's eyes widened, the muscles of his arms were tense, and he grabbed the handle of the knife and violently picked the knife towards the two flying tentacles!

The light of the knife condensed on the tip of the knife!Swaying huge power instantly provoked!
Swish!
puff!

Under the extremely fast upward sway, the protruding tentacles failed to react, and were cut in half vertically from the middle!
The waist and abdomen are tense!The center of gravity sinks!Purgatory Renshoulang gritted his teeth hard, and the way he held the knife in his hand changed!Arms take advantage of the situation and forcefully slash the knife down the cassock!
Swish!
puff!

pat!

The two tentacles were cut off neatly in an instant, and rolled to the ground, twitching in pain.

The foul-smelling slime splattered.

Then, it slowly turned into ashes and dissipated.

However, there are still two tentacles left!

Purgatory Renshourou's red-orange pupils stared at the tentacles stabbing from behind him obliquely. He took a deep breath and quickly swung the blade towards his side!
"...No! It's too slow!!"

He looked at the tentacles rushing into his face in an instant, but his own blade just started to turn around!
"It's too late!!"

A sharp and sharp tingling sensation is aching between the eyebrows!
Purgatory Renshourou gritted his teeth, staring at the churning tentacles, the passage of time around him seemed to slow down!
This time!

slap!

A white hand suddenly appeared in Purgatory Renshoulang's field of vision, and firmly grabbed the two struggling and twitching tentacles!
"grumble!!"

The painful struggle of the tentacles being pinched by a powerful force froze in front of Purgatory Renshourou.

He was taken aback for a moment, and then gasped for breath, looking aside along his arms.

"Your Excellency Shangquan?!"
