Sauichiro: rebuilding Ashina from the obliteration of the pillar

Chapter 173
Zenitsu is a native of Tokyo.

Shan Yi, who had no parents since childhood, was adopted by distant relatives, and has been working in his own hotel in the small town of Taoshan.

Although the adoptive parents do not treat him as their own like their own sons, they never deduct his wages, and instead reward him. Therefore, his situation is better than that of ordinary shop assistants, and he is more like a pet.

Coupled with the annual Nianyu (lucky money) and gifts from customers, Shanyi is only 13 years old and already has a considerable savings.

But money can only give Shanyi a negligible sense of security. What he wants is not cold coins, but real family affection.

However, it didn't take long before he, who had always longed for a real family, fell in love with the daughter of a family in the town secretly, and boldly confessed his love to her.

Helplessly, the girl who was two years older than him had already made a marriage contract at home, and she was going to get married in a few months.

However, just when Shanyi was disheartened and was about to offer her good wishes with lonely tears, the girl suddenly found him.

She complained to Shanyi, saying that she hated her marriage partner very much, but her parents had already accepted gifts from the other party's house.

Therefore, she hopes to use a sum of money to compensate the other party, completely resolve the marriage contract with her fiancé's family, and then go away with Shan Yi to live freely in a city without elder parents.

Shanyi clearly heard that she was lying from the voice - but the "expectation" and "love" in that voice were genuine and could not be faked.

He wishfully thought that the girl at least liked him, so he lent his "life assets" to the other party.

Not to mention that, in order for the girl to have enough support to settle the marriage contract, Shanyi also borrowed a loan shark from the gangsters in the local casino.

Dazed Shanyi thought about it, anyway, they would "elope" together soon, and it was impossible for those gamblers to find him.

However, the next morning, Shanyi realized that he had been cheated.

The girl's "love" and "expectation" were not aimed at him, but at a student who was temporarily staying in the town.

For that student, the girl not only defrauded Shan Yi of his money, but also stole her mother's jewelry and the engagement gift from her fiancé's house, and then disappeared with the college student in the dark.

Since then, my wife, Shanyi, has lost both money and wealth.

Without a girl, he naturally has no motivation to leave the town. Working hard to pay back the money has become my wife Shanyi's only goal, and he can bear being beaten and laughed at by debt collectors occasionally.

Until not long ago, he had wishful thinking that the girl must have been cheated...

It won't be long before she comes back crying.

When she came back, she found that neither her parents nor her fiancé could accept her, and only the infatuated Shan Yi still had her heart as before, so she was moved to tears in pain, and fell in love with him with all her heart, and then the two would live happily together go down.

This is the only motivation for Shanyi to continue living in Taoshan.

until that day.

The flames all over the mountains and plains reflected the whole town into a green smoky hell, and everyone fell into an unprecedented panic. People started screaming and screaming to escape from their homes. Shan Yi wanted to leave with his adoptive parents, but A girl was seen among the crowd stumbling while fleeing and separated from her family.

Ever since, Shan Yi, who was born with 1000% sympathy for women, protected her, and then took the injured girl to his hotel to treat the wound. Choking on the smoke.

That's when...

The group of gamblers in the town took advantage of the fire and broke in, and began to snatch everything of value in the store.

Shanyi watched all this through the gap in the guardrail at the wellhead, and felt deeply guilty for not being able or daring to stop the other party's behavior, but he was only a child after all, and they were tall, fat and strong...

So he continued to hide.

Until a boy with two samurai swords broke in.

Hearing this, Genichiro was already sure that this young man must be Yan Yue.

When eating beef hot pot together before, Genichiro heard from Katsuno Kusakami that when the fire ended, Mingzhu sacrificed, and the swordsmith village sent people to recover the blades belonging to Zhuji as usual.

However, the Yinbu people searched repeatedly in the still intact Momoyama hut, but found that the two Naruto sabers had disappeared.

What disappeared together was the old man's life savings.

Considering the fact that the old man Sangdao had a knife wound on his body when the Fenghu duo arrived, it can almost be concluded that the two Rilun knives belonging to Naruto were both stolen by Huang Yue.

"Go and get him a cup of hot tea."

Seeing Shanyi's body still trembling, Genichiro thought that it would be better for Rakuhime to go out for a while.

He didn't know what happened last night, when he read Luo Ji's heart, he found that this childish ghost really wanted to kill Shan Yi.

Being watched by this kind of eyes looking at food, it is no wonder that the child's speech is intermittent.

"No."

Luo Ji folded her arms and sternly refused, as if this incident insulted her identity, she would not listen to how the prostitute Taro tried to persuade her behind her back.

"This brat did something like that to me yesterday, and I'll just wait for you to finish your questioning, and then I'll torture him for a while!"

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry!"

Shanyi gave an exaggerated "嘿" sound, and his whole body rolled into a ball like a hedgehog, and his body quickly retreated to the edge of the experimental wooden bed, "I really didn't do it on purpose! How dare I!"

Although it is true that he likes beautiful girls...

But the matter of forcibly hugging a female ghost was really just a coincidence!

but.

When I was not so afraid, I missed the feeling at that time, that is the softness between life and death...

"Look at his expression, he must be thinking about it!" Luo Ji immediately stretched out her claws to grab Shanyi, but Genichiro grabbed her wrist and stopped ten centimeters in front of Shanyi.

"I still have use for this child, and I will not kill him."

Xianichiro's face became a little more serious, also implying that there is no need to discuss the matter of Fallen Princess.Even if she doesn't understand, the prostitute Taro will understand.

"Besides, it won't be long before you all will be able to appear in the world aboveboard. If you still talk about cannibalism and murder like this, what will Jiulang think of you? Even Kotaro won't talk to you."

To deal with a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl with intelligence like Luo Ji, it's useless to say those high-sounding things. As long as she mentions that someone she knows might not like her, she will immediately correct her behavior.

Sure enough, after hearing this, she snorted and left with her chest raised.

When her figure completely disappeared in the underground Buddhist hall, Shanyi was obviously much more relaxed, but looked at Genichiro's expression with some distrust.

"Aren't you really going to kill me? After all, I know this... secret."

The secret he was talking about was naturally the matter of humans raising ghosts.But he didn't know much about ghosts, so he didn't really understand how bizarre this matter was.

"You can even tell whether she is a human or a ghost. Can you tell if I'm lying?"

Genichiro paused, "Letting her bring you back was originally the task I gave her. But your strange hearing is a complete surprise."

"You...you don't want to...turn me into a ghost, do you?"

My wife Shanyi's face turned pale.

Xianichiro froze for a moment, thought for a while before saying: "If you want..."

"Of course not!"

My wife Shanyi suddenly cried and knelt down on the wooden bed, "Please let me go! I will never say a word. You can go to Taoshan and ask everyone, I am the least courageous! Not at all. Will do anything risky! I just want to live a peaceful life..."

"It's one thing not to kill you."

Genichiro was tormented by Zenyi's cries and had a headache, "It's another matter to let you go."

"Besides, your ability is very special. My younger brother will have to deal with the high-level and rulers of this country all day long. Those people are old foxes who don't match their appearance. If you are by his side, I will feel more at ease .”

In fact, at the beginning, Xianichiro took a fancy to this guy's courage to hand him a note in front of Fallen Girl, and thought about sending him to the Demon Slayer Squad for training, maybe he could find an heir for the old man with the broken leg.After all, this child's courage and kindness are the kind hidden in his heart, and should be the complete opposite of Yan Yue.

It wasn't until Yuji told Shanyi how to discover her identity that Genichiro discovered the child's true purpose.

Moreover, around Jiulang, there is indeed a lack of boys of the same age, and the entire Hirata Manor also lacks some vitality.

This loud, mushroom-headed kid might be just the thing.

On the other hand, Zenitsu was startled by Genichiro's words.

"The ruler of this country..." He blinked his narrowed eyes, "Who are you?"

His first reaction was naturally to think that Genichiro was talking big.However, his ears told him that this boy was not talking nonsense, and he was full of mistrust and guard against those he mentioned.

"By the way, I haven't told you my name yet, but my last name should be familiar to you."

Genichiro said slightly sternly.

"I'm Genichiro Ashina."

[Harvest 1000 reputation points from my wife Shanyi]

【Um? 】

It was the first time for Xianichiro to see a human being who could contribute so much reputation to him at one time.

Even for the pillars of Ubuyashiki and the Demon Slayer Team, the single prestige value is at most 500, which is already ten times that of the Emperor.

Immediately, he looked at my wife Shanyi with more interest.

[This kid I met by accident is actually an 'important person' recognized by the system? 】

[But the reputation value he contributed is higher than that of Hei Si Mou. What's going on? 】

Genichiro naturally doesn't know...

If he does not appear in this world, my wife Shanyi will become one of the protagonists in this world in a few years.

At the same time when Genichiro was puzzled, my wife Zenyi suddenly showed a look of enlightenment, and he stretched out his finger tremblingly to point at Genichiro.

"You, you, you, you...that's right, is that Wei's name mentioned in the newspaper? And that dim sum sold at sky-high prices..."

"Correct."

Genichiro nodded.

If even Zenitsu, who is in a remote area of ​​Tokyo or even in Kyoto, has heard of this name, it means that his actions during this period are indeed effective.

Wei Ming's reputation has really spread.

"Just stay here. Soon, ghosts who can live in harmony with people will appear in the world openly, and the secrets you know will no longer be secrets."

Genichiro paused, "Besides, there is a bright future waiting for you, so what is there to worry about? If one day, that woman who deceived you sees your photo or name in the newspaper, she will definitely have a funny face. "

"Besides...you grow up with Kuro, and the people you meet will be different from before."

"No matter which country you are in, most of the most beautiful women in the country are born in big families with rich clothes and good food, aren't they?"

This last sentence was like the key to unlock Shanyi's heart, it directly penetrated into the depths of his subconscious.

[Although I don't know why this kid contributed so much reputation, it's not wrong to keep him. 】

Xianichiro thought in his heart, 【If you stay without resistance and willingly, that would be even better. 】

He didn't wait for too long, Shanyi's sobbing voice stopped immediately, and then his eyeballs started to spin like mosquito coils, obviously he had fallen into fantasy.

Xianichiro knew that the child was probably tempted.

"But before I bring you to see Kuro, I still need to understand what I was talking about just now."

Genichiro pulled Zenyi's consciousness out of his fantasies, and returned to that smoky night that day, "Think about it carefully, what did the guy with the knife say and do when he entered the hotel?"

This Yanyue is also an "important person", and not only is the Ghost Slayer Team looking for that guy, but Ghost Dance Tsuji Wumi wants to tear him apart.

Therefore, Yue Yue is very suitable as a bait.

Sure enough, after knowing that his future might be bright, Shanyi's mind immediately became more active, and he began to recall the details of that time.

"He came to the backyard of the hotel panting, probably affected by the thick smoke..."

"Then, he walked to the door of the kitchen to drink water from the water tank, and those gamblers just came out after collecting their things, and then without saying a word, he drew out his knife and killed them all."

Shanyi shook his neck unconsciously, "There are corpses all over the floor, stumps and broken arms!"

"If he hadn't killed those people, I wouldn't have fled to Kyoto, but I was too afraid that the police would blame me..."

After all, he was in debt, and he was a debt collector when he died, so it was very suspicious.

"Don't get off topic." Genichiro stared into Shanyi's eyes, "If you see or hear anything important, say it."

So far, he only knew from Shanyi that Yan Yue went to Taoshan Town after he came down from the mountain, and killed a few people in order not to reveal his whereabouts.

"After he killed people, he took away the money from them, and then talked to himself in front of the corpse."

Shanyi said suddenly, "Because I have good ears, I can hear quite clearly."

"What did he say to himself?"

Genichiro frowned.

"He said so."

Shanyi repeated, "'Such a good knife, if sold to the place where Samo's warriors gather, it should be able to sell for a lot of money.'"

"'With so much money, neither the ghost nor the old man's companion will ever try to find me again.'"

After finishing speaking, Shanyi spread his hands, "That's all."

"Never try to find me again?"

Genichiro couldn't help but be surprised by the self-confidence of the Yue Yue.

Even if you hide in the Imperial Palace, the Demon Slayer Squad and Oni can enter.

unless--

【Wait, "With so much money", "Summer"...】

Genichiro's eyes widened slowly, and he finally knew where this guy was most likely to go, and also the most reasonable one.

Namely, leave the country.

After all, Satsuma is the old nest of the navy, so it is so strange to have a port that can go abroad.

Therefore, Genichiro immediately contacted Shinichi Sase, the leader of the Eagles, through blood.

"Xinyi, immediately go to Kagoshima and Yamaguchi prefectures (where the Satsuma domain used to be located) to investigate the local wealthy merchants and pawn shops selling famous knives, and then come to pick up the knives to confirm them one by one. Kill' words, immediately find out its source and find Yan Yue."

"Once you find the target, don't startle the snake..."

"I'm going to use this bait to cut off another arm of Ghost Mai Tsuji."
