Chapter 12 Three Months

"Since your ambition is to become a Demon Slayer Swordsman, you must know some commonsense knowledge!" Rinaki Zuo looked at Qin Xiao and Tanjirou solemnly.

"The first is the Ghost Killing Squad. The total number of members of the Ghost Killing Squad is around several hundred. It is an officially recognized organization that has not been recognized by the government."

"Hasn't the Demon Slayer Corps always been responsible for hunting ghosts and protecting ordinary people? Why is it not recognized by the government?"

After getting along with Yoshiyuki Tomioka for a while, Tanjiro also got a little understanding of the Demon Slayer Squad.

"If the government officially recognizes the ghost killing team, it means that ghosts are real. Perhaps it is for the sake of social stability, so the government has not officially recognized the ghost killing team."

"I see."

"But no matter what, the Ghost Slayer Squad has a very long history, and it may be right that it has not had any contact with the government until now."

"Then: ghost! You two have already killed a ghost, so you should have some understanding of ghosts."

"Even the most ordinary ghosts are extremely physically stronger than ordinary people, and they have super self-healing abilities."

"This self-healing ability can not only make the wound heal quickly, but also reattach the body parts that were cut off by a sharp weapon, and even grow new limbs!"

Hearing what Nintaki Sakonji said, Tanjiro subconsciously thought of the ghost who had half of his head cut off by him, but could still bite the knife tightly.

Sure enough, the horror of ghosts was far beyond his imagination!
"Not only that, a few ghosts also have special abilities that ordinary ghosts don't have. To kill ghosts, you can only kill them with direct sunlight or beheading them with special weapons!"

Speaking of this, Lin Taki Zuo looked at Qin Xiao for the first time.

He knew very well that the two knives in Qin Xiao's hand were the sun wheel knives, otherwise it would be impossible to kill the ghost with a single knife.

It's just that he was a little strange where Qin Xiao got the knives, and there were two of them.

Long before Qin Xiao and the others arrived, Tomioka Yiyong sent him a letter.

The situation of Tanjiro and Nezuko is no different from what Tomioka Yoshiyuki said in his letter.On the contrary, Qin Xiao's real situation is quite different from the contents of the letter...

Tomioka Yoshiyuki said that Qin Xiao could breathe water, but not swordsmanship...

no problem.

Tomioka Yoshiyuki said that Qin Xiao has a knife, and sometimes it will wrap around flames, making him feel a deadly threat...

He didn't notice this at all. He felt that Qin Xiao was not even as good at fighting as Tanjiro.

And doesn’t he have two knives?
Putting aside the doubts in his heart, Ningtaki Sakonji continued to speak: "And I am a trainer, and my duty is to train swordsmen."

"But if you want to join the Demon Slayer Corps, you must participate in the [Final Selection] held at [Fujirai Mountain] and survive for seven days!"

"As for whether you can participate in the semi-annual [final selection], it is up to me. If I am not satisfied with your performance, then I will not let you die."

"That's about all I have to say, let's start training now!"

"Yes!" Tanjiro responded.

"Master, I'm going to get some meat from the mountain!" Qin Xiao said hello and went out.

While walking towards the mountain, Qin Xiao was thinking about the final selection.

Just now Rinaki Zuo said recently that the final selection will be held every six months.If possible, he didn't want to stay in Sagiri Mountain with Tanjiro for two years.

His goal is to participate in the latest final selection, pass the selection to join the ghost killing team, and then start the ghost killing journey.

Qin Xiao, who went up the mountain after breakfast, didn't come back until noon, and came back empty-handed.

After lunch, Qin Xiao went up the mountain again, but still found nothing.

There are indeed many good things on the mountain, pheasants, hares, wild boars...even black bears, Qin Xiao has seen them from a distance.

However, Qin Xiao couldn't catch these things, or Qin Xiao couldn't defeat them. None of them were easy to mess with.

In desperation, Qin Xiao could only go to the nearby river to get under his shoddy ground cage, and catch fish or fish while waiting.

Hunting in the river is obviously more reliable and safer than hunting in the mountains.Even if no fish can be caught or no fish can be caught, the ground cage is more or less guaranteed.

As long as he cages Qin Xiao enough to cover a section of the river, there will be no fish he can't eat!

It didn't take long, and three meals a day included fried fish, grilled fish or fish soup...

When Tanjiro went down the mountain after training every day, he would occasionally carry one or two pheasants and hares, which greatly improved their diet.

When Qin Xiao asked how Tanjiro caught those flying and jumping pheasants and hares, Qin Xiao knew that Tanjiro would arrange some traps for hunting.

After asking Tanjiro how to set up traps for hunting, Qin Xiao launched a challenge to the prey in the mountains for the second time!
On this day, Qin Xiao arranged more than 50 hunting traps throughout the mountains from morning to night.

The next day, I carried a bunch of pheasants and hares down the mountain!

After that, the pheasants and hares in the mountains suffered!
Qin Xiao would set up dozens of traps every day when he went up the mountain, and then inspect the previous traps to see if there were any harvests.

From the second day after he learned how to lay traps, Qin Xiao never had time in his hands when he went down the mountain.Sometimes there are one or two, and sometimes there are four or five.

In short, eat extra meals every day, roast a rabbit today and roast a chicken tomorrow!Can't finish it, can't finish it at all!

However, Qin Xiao, who has the spirit of "environmental protection", understands what is meant by sustainable development.

So he raised all the pheasants and hares that he couldn't finish, so that he could eat eggs every day!
One month later, Qin Xiao not only looked stronger, but even grew a little taller.

Of course it's not just him, Tanjiro is the same.

In the past, although Tanjiro's family could barely eat and wear clothes, there were not many opportunities to eat meat throughout the year.

It’s not like now, when the meat and egg tubes are enough, the creation is over!

During the month when Qin Xiao went up mountains and rivers, Tanjiro ran up mountains every day, jumping repeatedly in various traps that had a certain chance of death to improve his physical fitness, reflexes and sense of smell.

From the second month onwards, Rinaki Sakin asked Tanjiro to start running around the mountain with a sword.

Due to the heavy weight of the sword and its hindrance to flexibility, Tanjiro began to be beaten by traps again.

Also starting from the second month, Qin Xiao followed Tanjiro to run in the mountains.

Although for the first month, he had been taking Ryūren Wakahui and Hyōrinmaru up mountains and down rivers.But in terms of physical strength and reaction ability, he is still far inferior to Tanjiro.

In order to prevent Qin Xiao from dying in the hands of the trap, and to allow Tanjiro to adapt to the existence of the sword, Rinaki Zuo recently reduced the danger of the trap.

After Tanjiro finished running the mountain and practiced his empty swing several hundred times, Qin Xiaocai returned to the foot of the mountain with his whole body injured, and began to practice his empty swing.

If it weren't for Qin Xiao's constant water breathing state to bless his physical strength, Tanjiro might be able to shake him so that he can't see the exhaust gas...

In this way, Qin Xiao and Tanjiro spent three months in Sagiri Mountain...
