Become Supreme Will from Hunter x Hunter

Chapter 281 There must be a surprise
The spring snow melts.

In a blink of an eye, winter is over.

One day, when Tan Yoshiro accompanied his father down the mountain again, they found that the house where Yuri lived was empty.

The door is locked.

The people left...without saying hello to them.

They remembered that Lu said that they came from Youguo, and now... they must have gone back.

This is in line with Hao's character... The other person came here just to see the breath of the sun, and as for getting to know their family, it was just by the way.

Tan Yoshiro felt that it was a pity that he could not say goodbye to Mr. Ogi in advance.

From Kamado Tanpei's point of view, Ouzhi knew that he was about to face death... A strong person like that did not need mercy.

He has his own pride.

"Two."

Looking at the closed courtyard door, Tanping patted his son on the shoulder and prepared to leave.

At this time, a boy ran over holding a square box.

"This is what the Lord asked me to give to you before he left... To be precise, it's for Tan Yirou." The man handed over the things left behind.

"Thank you."

Tanpei nodded and took it.

When he opened it, he found that the box contained a black feather fabric.

It is exactly the same as the one worn by Ou. This kind of clothing belongs to aristocratic clothing. The materials are precious and not something ordinary people can afford.

It is for Tan Yoshiro to wear when he becomes an adult.

"Father…"

Tan Yirou stopped talking.

"It's valuable, but...this is his intention."

……

For Hao, it is very easy to find ghosts.

Even if you don't contact the Demon Slayer Squad, you can still collect many "bizarre" incidents from the shogunate's channels alone.

Ubuyashiki Kuno is able to quickly mobilize members and go to various places to hunt ghosts, and this relationship is indispensable.

What's more, Hao himself is a senior executive of the shrine.

Equivalent to the highest police force.

His situation is already very bad.

"Sir...this is it."

On the evening of the next day, several samurai holding torches escorted Hagi to a rural village in the Edo region.

These samurai were ordered to come from Edo Castle...Kuntori Mountain was originally not too far from Edo Castle.

"Aobashi Town."

One of them introduced the situation of the village in front of him.

It was pitch dark at this time, and the village that was supposed to be bustling with activity turned out to be extremely quiet, unlike what several people had heard.

Qinglin Town is located on a key road. Whether it is day or night, there are many convoys of merchants on the way. Most of the refugees coming from this direction will pass by here as long as they are bound for the capital.

Therefore, even a small village with hundreds of households is actually a land of fireworks and willows. It becomes more and more lively at night, with pubs and down-and-out artists... There are many places like this, and everyone is trying to survive. Just make money.

But recently, there has been some unrest here. Letters have been reported that many people passing through this place have disappeared inexplicably and there is no news.

The people sent by the execution office came to investigate, but they had no clue.

"Cough cough cough..."

Hao was coughing laboriously, his cheek bones were thinning, and he looked a bit scary at this time.

The body is like a bamboo pole and requires the support of two maids to stand upright.

Several warriors looked at each other and did not dare to say a word.

They also didn't know why this big shot who originally belonged to the Northern Administrative Office suddenly inquired about Qinglin Town and asked someone to accompany him.

If it weren't for the identity behind Hao, they wouldn't have traveled all the way to such a ghost place.

The current situation in the shogunate is very uneven. There are rebels and rebels appearing in various places... If the cases in the capital cannot be solved, who will care about outside the city?
Countless people died in Edo City every day... There were drunken bastards who made trouble, and there were samurai who formed gangs and fought with each other.

The number of dead people and the degree of trouble are far more troublesome than Aobashi Town.

He looked at the village hidden in the night and the few scattered lights, and smiled.

Here...there is indeed a ghost, and it's a big fish.

He smelled the smell of blood in the air... coming from the village.

A lot of people died…

Generally speaking, a single ghost or a relatively weak one can cause havoc in an area and have far less influence. Most ghosts act alone and do not dare to stay alone in one place. It is very likely that they will commit crimes at a fixed location for a long time. Attract danger.

After all, there are still people from the Demon Slayer Corps watching.

They basically take one shot and change the location.

Furthermore, out of the control of Wu Ke's will, in order to prevent ghosts from gathering a force and threatening his position...he will not let multiple ghosts appear and move in a certain area, blocking communication in advance.

During this period of time, Hazuku stayed in Mount Kuntori. In addition to taking blue Higanbana, he spent more time searching files in the Edo area...finding clues of ghosts from a large sea of ​​information.In a case like this, even if a certain number of people disappear, it will still not be noticed by the shogunate. Compared with the war, these casualties are nothing.

Moreover, with the ability of ordinary people, it is impossible to do it... and they cannot detect the tricks in it. In the end, they can only ignore it and get over it.

Looking at the world of demon slayers, to measure a ghost's ability, in addition to looking at how many members of the demon slayer team it has eaten and how many pillar-level swordsmen it has killed, there is also a very important point, which is whether its activity area is fixed. How damaging it is to ordinary people.

Fallen Princess, Tong Mo, including Lai from Natian Spider Mountain, these beings in the Twelve Ghost Moons all have their own 'roosts'.

Have no fear.

Ordinary ghosts are not worth setting out to find. If you are looking for one... just look for a big one.

"With this kind of blood gas concentration, at least dozens of people died..."

Lu's heart moved.

"Go in," he said.

Immediately, several warriors led the way into the village.

"strangeness…"

As soon as they entered the main road of the village, the warriors felt a strange feeling.

The village is small, and there is only one main road. Even if there is no 'business' recently, it is impossible to see no one on the street... not even a dog.

In today's environment, not to mention going to places with fireworks, even on some official roads, you can occasionally run into drunkards or refugees.

wow.

Just when a person was about to knock on the door of a wooden house nearby, a red lantern hanging in a small shop suddenly lit up a few meters away.

Someone moved the old push-pull shoji door, stretched out his head and looked over, "Several adults...this way!"

"Ok?"

The leading samurai leaned over and frowned: "What's going on? Where have all the people in Qinglin Town gone? The last time I came here, it was very lively here."

"You don't know, sir. Every year in early spring, there will be an outbreak of diseases in our town, Qinglin. Most of them are caused by pollen in the mountains. Those who are infected will have red spots on their bodies and itchiness. They are afraid of infecting outsiders, so during this period, Most of the businesses in the village have closed down early... Everyone who can walk has left, and those who can't walk should just rest and wait for the storm to pass before serving the travelers." The old man welcomed the few people into the house flatteringly, his eyes When scanning to haze, it will flicker slightly.

"infectious disease?"

The warrior's face changed slightly.

"Don't worry, adults, I'm fine..."

The old man said hurriedly.

This is a simple tavern. Because it is a wooden house, the space inside is not large. There are only a few tables and chairs...it is not comparable to those in the city, but it is enough for passers-by.

After lighting the candlestick, the old man began to work.

Several plates of home-pickled cold dishes were served, as well as thick and grainy drinks.

Hao was first helped to sit down.

This scene was also seen by the old man.

Several samurai, including the two maids, surrounded the seriously ill young man, and the luxurious feather fabric he was wearing made his identity extraordinary.

"grown ups."

After several people sat down, they looked at Hao.

"Don't worry about me, you can do whatever you want."

Hao said something.

When the warriors heard this, they felt relieved.

They were just ordered to protect Omei when he came to Qinglin Town. As for what the latter was going to do or what he wanted to do, they had no idea.

But after a day's journey, although the village is a bit deserted at the moment, it is good to have a place to stay, drink and eat.

The few warriors drank deeply, and soon their faces became hot.

Hao and the two maids did not move their chopsticks.

"Store..."

He looked at the old man who was warming wine and cooking vegetables and called out.

"Sir, say it."

"I just saw... behind the village, there seems to be a large building in the southeast. It doesn't look like a house... but more like a shrine?"

"Yes...it is unavoidable for adults to be curious. The shrine was built not long ago, and it is also because of the contagious diseases that persist all year round. We and other villagers can only use this method of praying for peace." The old man's eyelids twitched. He pretended to smile calmly.

Seeing this, Hazy didn't ask any more questions.

The old man breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously.

The smell of blood wafts from that shrine...the corpses must be fresh.

Moreover, the entire village must be staying at that shrine right now.

And that ghost!
Sacrifice?

Or has it formed an organized faction like Tong Mo’s Eternal Bliss Sect?

It would be great if that were the case.

The greater the momentum, the more it shows that the ghost hidden behind it is extraordinary.

Pfft!
After a while, without warning, several warriors who were chatting and laughing a second ago suddenly fell drunk and smashed their heads on the wooden table.

The maid was startled. These warriors had only drank a small cup each. Why did they lose consciousness?
At this time, the expression of the old man, who had been facing away from them and seemed busy, changed, his eyes were cold, and he didn't know when he was holding a sharp knife in his hand, and he slowly turned around.

Xiang Long and the maid showed cruel smiles.

It's not difficult to deal with two female prostitutes and one sick person.

He is a veteran.

"Sure enough... they are in the same group."

Hazy sighed to himself.

He found it boring. He originally thought that the old man would play some tricks or come up with some more novel methods... but he didn't expect it to be so low-level.

Can it be leveled?
This clumsy trick is just to deceive these brainless samurai.

In the eyes of the samurai, there is an order of superiority and inferiority. They are the superiors of the class. Even if these untouchables are given a hundred courages, they will not dare to do anything extraordinary.

This is the prejudice and arrogance brought about by status.

"I'll give you whatever you want."

"I am from the shogunate..."

He raised his hand in mock fear.

Prepare to teach the old man and the ghost behind him a lesson.

Since you want to cause trouble, the means of doing it must not be too low-level.

You need to know how to create surprises for people…
