Chapter 5 Ghosts

The bear's head is still hanging there. "

Bai Ye flicked his head towards the other side of the cart, where a huge bear head hung.

"It's incredible that he was killed."

Sweat dripped from the fat boss's forehead again, but this time it was because he was scared.

Able to kill a nearly three-meter-long bear, he had already imagined in his mind a scene of a two-meter-tall, muscular man wrestling with a bear.

However, he didn't know that the person who killed the bear was just a frail middle-aged man.

"Ahem, although the body and head of this piece of bear skin are separated, the value will be slightly lower than that of the intact bear skin, but it can still be sold for a lot of money."

"What do you think of this number?"

The fat businessman stretched out three fingers, waved them in front of Bai Ye and said.

Before leaving during the day, Kamado Kuie told him that this piece of bearskin should be sold for thirty yuan.

The fat boss immediately told Bai Ye his bottom price.

However, Bai Ye came from China and inherited the local bargaining skills, and even used them in reverse.

"No, at least this number is required."

On Bai Ye's side, he stretched out five fingers on his left hand and one on his right hand, a total of six fingers. He bargained for half of the price. This was the basis. The reverse was to double the price.

"Sir, if you lower the price like this, I won't be able to continue my business."

The fat boss was speechless and doubled the price. This was the first time in his life that he had seen this.

"I am running a small business. You only gave me raw materials, and I still need to process them. At the price you gave me, I really can't earn a penny."

After a quarrel, the two finally took a step back.

The final price was 45 yuan.

This amount of money can probably buy five full Lihua Luoxiang Nahu, which translates into current purchasing power of about 12,000 RMB.

In the Taisho era, if ordinary people wanted to earn this kind of money, they would have to work day and night for at least fifteen months.

"Then this piece of bearskin is mine. Brother Bai Ye, if you still have such high-quality furs in the future, don't forget me."

The fat boss looked at Xiongpi and rubbed his hands excitedly.

Business is not a one-and-done deal. If you want to grow bigger and stronger, a good collaborator is essential.

"Of course you can, but I can't guarantee whether you can find high-quality fur again in the future."

Bai Ye and the fat boss carried the bear skin into the store together, paying with one hand and delivering the goods with the other.

"The boss is very generous and I hope we will have a pleasant cooperation next time."

Bai Ye clicked the banknotes in his hand and said happily, he likes such rich buyers the most.

"Oh, I'm just greedy, but it doesn't matter if it's second to none."

The fat boss sighed and took the fur from Bai Ye with some pain.

Obviously, forty-five yuan is a lot of money for the fat boss.

Suddenly the fat boss remembered something and ran out of the store quickly. After looking around and finding no one there, he quietly approached Bai Ye.

"Hey, what are you going to do?!"

Bai Ye took a few steps back in a panic, looking at the fat boss with something obviously wrong in his eyes.

Once the fat boss plans to do something evil to him, he can show the fat boss what ghosts are.

The fat boss was stunned by his excessive reaction, then lowered his voice, his little eyes swept across the door from time to time, and said mysteriously:

"Remember what I just said about the regulars? Although I didn't see the body, my family members said that there was only one hand left. There was either a wild beast or something unclean in the town. Something.”

He stopped, took a deep breath, and said in a warning tone:

"In short, you live in the mountains, so you must be careful these days. I don't want your future cash cow to be eaten."

After saying that, he picked up the fur and walked into the store without looking back.

.......

As Bai Ye walked on the road, the "beast attack" mentioned by the fat boss echoed in his heart.

‘It can’t just be a simple wild beast attack. Most animals hibernate, and unless they are hungry, carnivores rarely run down the mountains. ’

He remembered that Mi Douzi had told him before that it was rare to see bears in action in the winter.

It's really bad luck for me to meet him.

Bai Ye lowered his head so that the expression on his face could not be seen clearly.

In this world, in addition to beasts, there is also a kind of man-eating creature - ghost.

Without the "Ghost Killing Team" whose primary goal is to eliminate ghosts, these ghosts would definitely be much more arrogant than they are now.

I won't think about how to eat people secretly.

At this time, there was probably less than a year left before Kibutsuji Muzan found the Kamado family.

Kibutsuji Mumei was absolutely proud and would never personally go to every corner of Fuso specifically to look for the Kamado family.

Divide your own blood and create a large number of ghosts with varying strengths. If you can't even handle such a small thing as finding someone, you might as well die quickly.

His blood is not reserved for useless ghosts.

That guy's idea is nothing more than this, and the ghosts under him cannot refute it. In this world, he is the representative of all "evil".

The "beast" that is becoming more and more famous in the town is most likely one of the ghosts that Kibutsuji Muzan sends everywhere to look for the Kamado family.

In other words, if Bai Ye's guess is correct, then this ghost is the instigator of the destruction of the Zamon family.

Thinking of this, Bai Ye's murderous intent gushed out, and a small amount of spiritual power also leaked out, making passers-by shudder.

He secretly glanced at him and quickened his pace to leave Bai Ye.

He is still in the development stage. Even if Kamado Tanjuro can protect himself, he doesn't want his current peaceful life to be disrupted.

"Huh?"

After his inspiration became higher, his five senses also improved a lot, and he keenly noticed that a gaze was staring at him.

Looking in the direction of the gaze, Bai Ye found that Tanjiro appeared behind him at some point.

He looked at himself with a complicated expression.

The basket behind him was empty, and it was obvious that he had sold all the charcoal and came to find Bai Ye.

Bai Ye immediately remembered Tanjiro's terrible sense of smell that could even smell emotions.

He immediately buried the ghost in his heart, the murderous intent and spiritual power disappeared, and Bai Ye seemed to have turned back into the sunny boy who could get along well with any child.

He knew that without any special training, this superficial disguise could not hide Tanjiro at all.

Fortunately, Tanjiro would not ask him about his secrets.

Tanjiro took the handle of the cart from Bai Ye and said in a deep voice:

"Aye, you are my family. If there is anything that must be done, I and our father and mother will help you find a way."

Seeing Tanjiro's worried eyes, Bai Ye shook his head.

It is difficult for people to believe in the existence of creatures such as ghosts if they have not seen them with their own eyes. It is better to let him bear it alone.

As long as all the ghosts are killed before they know about this, there will naturally be no ghosts in the world.

And now, there is an opportunity to strangle all tragedies in the cradle, right in front of him.

Even if he does not have the Nichirin Sword to kill ghosts, he is unwilling to miss it.

However, now is not the time to think about ghosts. He must go home quickly to heal Tanjuro Kamado.

In the original work, Tanjuro died of illness ten days after killing the giant bear in front of his son.

He was afraid that if he flapped his wings like a butterfly, Tanjiro would die early, and then all his plans would be ruined.

He took a deep breath and put Tanjiro on the cart despite his resistance.

With his superhuman physical strength, he returned much faster than when he came.

He left messy footprints on the snowy mountain road.

In less than two hours, he arrived at the wooden house of the Kamado family.

"Huh? Brother, you guys came back so early. Did you encounter any difficulties?"

Nezuko asked curiously, holding a basin of washed clothes in her hand and tilting her head to look at the two of them.
