Similar to the plot of the original book, Tanjiro chases Takaki's back all the way.

By the time Taki returned to his residence in the Gapy Mountains, Tanjiro, who was chasing after him the whole time, was exhausted.

Taki invited Horitake into his house, and after Horitake had placed your beans, Taki took Tanjiro up the Mt. Kirito to begin the second test.

The second test is that Tanjiro is required to descend the mountain before dawn, passing through layers of traps in between.

After throwing Tanjiro alone on the mountain, Taki returns alone.

In the house of Takigi, You Douko played alone on the side, leaving only Horitake and Taki in the center of the house, lighting a fire and sitting opposite each other.

The two looked at each other, their eyes widened and small, and no one spoke for a while, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.

Taki didn't speak because he had just been defeated and lost his hand in front of the junior, which was really a bit of a loss of face.

Horitake didn't speak because he really didn't know what to say.

Fortunately, the two have a common topic, that is, Tanjiro.

Taki asked Horitake,

"I have laid countless traps on the Mt. Sorgi, do you think Tanjiro can complete my test?"

Horitake is full of confidence:

"This kid has extraordinary talent, I believe he will be able to do it!"

Staring at Horitake carefully, Taki looked and looked at it, and wondered:

"I don't know why your kid has so much confidence in him."

"Of course I have confidence in Tanjiro," Horitake said, looking at Youbean who was starting to get sleepy next to him, "Tanjiro has a reason to complete the test, his sister is still waiting for him here, he will definitely not fail or fall."

Infected by Horidake's tone, Taki seemed to recall the past:

"Yes, human will can create miracles....

And you, boy, young but amazingly powerful, that guy in Kuwashima is really a blessing to have a disciple like you.

"Haha, having such a master is also my blessing, if it weren't for the smelly old man, I'm afraid I would have died a long time ago, where would I be today?"

"It seems that you are also a person full of stories."

"Yes, this year, it is not easy for anyone."

Around Horitake himself, as well as the recent situation of Kuwajima Cigoro, one old and one young chatted for a long time.

Unconsciously, time passed, and Your beans fell into sleep.

Looking at the gradually extinguished charcoal fire, Taki estimated the time:

"It's almost dawn, the time is almost there..."

Horitake also became serious.

In the original book, Tanjiro rushed back at the last moment and completed the test of Takaki, but now Tanjiro has injuries on his body, and the process of going down the mountain is bound to not be as smooth as in the original.

However, Horitake still has a lot of confidence in Tanjiro, he is the protagonist!

While the two were pondering, the door of the house was violently pulled open, and Tanjiro's embarrassed figure appeared at the door.

Horitake and Taki looked and saw Tanjiro panting against the door frame, his clothes were dirty and torn, his hair was either grass clippings or leaves, and blood was flowing from his shoulders, neck, and face, you can imagine how difficult it was for him.

The sun rose, the sun shone on Tanjiro, and the exhausted Tanjiro could no longer hold on and knelt in the doorway.

Taki smiled for a long time:

"Good job, Tanjiro."

Recognized by Master Taki Taki , Tanjiro was relieved with joy.

As soon as this breath was loosened, Tanjiro couldn't support it, leaned shakily against the door frame, and just passed out.

From the time he met the Buddha Hall ghost the night before yesterday to the completion of the test this morning, Tanjiro has not closed his eyes, his spirit is always tense, and his body is exhausted to the extreme.

He could finally rest for a while.

Together with Taki Taki, Hori dragged Tanjiro into the house and found a room to house him so that he could rest.

At the same time, the electronic voice of the system sounded in Horidaku's mind:

"Ding! It is confirmed that Taki Zuo is willing to take Tanjiro as an apprentice, and the host successfully solves the negative butterfly effect, completes the task, and receives the mission reward.

Bite! Congratulations to the host for gaining a special ability: Psionics!

Bite! Warm reminder, after the host obtains spiritual vision, it can see many things that ordinary people cannot see. "

Psionics?

Horitake didn't feel any difference, but he felt clearer.

Spiritual vision or something, I will experiment slowly in the future, since the task is completed, Tanjiro has also been placed, and Horitake should also go.

Horitake stood up and bowed to Taki Taki:

"Master Taki Taki will ask you in the future for Tanjiro and You Bean."

"Don't worry, leave it to me."

Nodding, Horitake pushed open the door and walked out, ready to leave the Misty Mountain.

Who knows, as soon as he stepped on the road down the mountain, he found something, the spiritual vision was activated, and he turned his head to look....

In the mist, Horitake clearly saw two figures.

It was a teenager and a teenage girl.

The boy has orange hair and wears a fox mask with scars engraved; The girl is petite and wears a fox mask with small blue flowers printed diagonally.

Horitake recognized the two people almost instantly, it was Rabbit and Maka.

These are the two characters in Ghost Slayer Blade, which are the most difficult to settle.

Horitake stopped, faced Rabbit and Shinka, and saluted:

"Tanjiro and Youdouko, I'll trouble the two of you to take care of it."

Rabbit and Maho were a little surprised, and Maho hesitantly asked,

"You... See us? "I

can see you," Horitake pointed to his eyes a little proudly, "Just like Tanjiro's sense of smell, my eyes also have a special ability to see things that others can't."

Rabbit nodded:

"I see, Tanjiro is my junior brother, I will take good care of him."

After saying goodbye to Rabbit and Maka, Horitake descended the mountain, officially left the Gorge Fog Mountain, and began to rush to Momoyama.

It took another day or so for Hori to finally return to the town at the foot of Momoyama.

Once here, it's almost at the doorstep, and the rest of the journey is just the journey up the mountain.

While wandering around the town, Horitake muttered in his heart:

This time he came out, ran outside for almost a week, and after going back, the smelly old man will definitely have to ask endlessly again.

The things of the system must not be said, how can I prevaricate the smelly old man when I turn back?

What a headache.

No way, buy two bottles of good wine in the town, you should make amends to the smelly old man, hoping that this wine can gag his mouth and let the smelly old man not dig into the roots.

Just as Horitake was finishing buying alcohol in the shop, he heard a noise outside.

The first to bear the brunt was the fierce and evil voice of several men:

"Bastard little ghost! How many days have passed? Don't pay it back yet! "

How much money is owed, you know!?"

"If you don't pay back this time, I'll break your leg!"

In addition to these few angry cries, there were crackling beatings, muffled by beatings, and miserable cries for mercy and cries:

"Woooo Don't fight anymore! If you fight again, you will die! Will definitely die! A few big brothers, if I die, the money I owe you will never be repaid, right? "

This voice... It's kind of déjà vu.

Horitake thought of something, and a black line appeared on his head, could it be...

Walking out of the shop with sake, Horitake checked the situation outside.

On the streets of the town, several big men were punching and kicking a teenager who cowardly hugged his head and shrunk on the ground, beaten and begging for mercy.

This kind of bustle is rare, and many people watch and point from afar.
