Tanjiro screamed instinctively against the waterfall that was rushing down by the rapids. In the end, Tanjiro couldn't stand the impact of the waterfall and fainted.
On the other hand, Bai Yu was also standing under the waterfall, but Bai Yu had already merged with the water. The waterfall that was rushing down did not hit Bai Yu abruptly, but flowed silently from Bai Yu.
In the blink of an eye, a year has passed. During this period, Tanjiro continued to practice, and he gradually figured out the doorway of breathing.
Suddenly one day, Rintaki Sakonji called Shiroha and Tanjiro to his side.
"Tanjirou, I have nothing to teach you!"
Hearing this, Tanjirou was stunned for a moment. He never thought Rintaki Sakonji would say such a thing to him.Because Tanjirou felt that there was nothing he could learn from his master.
Chapter 24 The Final Test
"It's up to you in the future to see if you can elevate what I've taught."
"No need to say more about your senior brother Bai Yu. His talent is even higher than Yi Yong and you. If it wasn't for waiting for you, he would have already become a powerful presence in the Ghost Slayer team, just like Tomioka Yi Yong."
"As for whether you can participate in the final selection of the ghost killing team, you still need to pass the last test."
--"Come with me!"
Rintaki Sakura disappeared in a hurry after speaking.
"Let's go!" Shiroha said to Tanjirou, and immediately followed.
Tanjirou also followed with his hind feet, the three of them Rintaki Sakon was in front, Shiroha was the second, and Tanjiro was at the end.
In the end, Rintaki Sakonji took Shiraha and Tanjiro to a relatively open space in the Sagiri Mountain. After a year of reincarnation, the snow fell on the Sagiri Mountain again.
In the open space, there was a huge round stone standing there, and a thick hemp rope was tied to the stone, which should have been dragged here by Rintaki Sakonji.
"Tanjiro~ As long as you can cut off this boulder, I will allow you and Shiroha to participate in the final selection of the Ghost Slayer team." Rintaki Sakonji finally explained to Tanjiro.
After speaking, he quietly left again.
Tanjirou called a few times in the direction Rintaki Sakonji left, but he didn't stop Rintaki Sakonji who was leaving.
Looking at the huge stone in front of him, Tanjirou became suspicious.Can such a huge stone really be cut off with a knife in hand?
Thinking about it, Tanjirou looked at Hakuba and asked, "Senior Hakuba, can you cut off this giant rock?"
Hearing this, Bai Yu nodded and said lightly, "Yes!"
"Really? Senior Hakuba! Can you show me a demonstration?" Tanjiro couldn't wait to see how Hakuba cut off the boulder.
"No." Hakuba refused Tanjiro's request without thinking much.
"Why?" Tanjirou was puzzled.
"This is the final test the old man gave you, so I can't do any demonstration." Bai Yu replied.
In addition to this reason, the reason why Shiraha did not demonstrate is that there is only one such boulder, and if Shiraha cuts off the stone, it will be difficult to find an identical stone to give to Tanjiro.
Another point is that as the words said, this is the final test for Tanjiro, and Shiroha does not want to interfere too much.
"Use your own brain to think about what the old man said, but don't be unable to do it all your life!"
After Bai Yu finished speaking, he also walked away.
"Hakuba-senpai!" Tanjirou felt a little overwhelmed.
Soon, only Tanjiro was left on Mount Sagiri, and the cold wind and snow in winter danced leisurely in the mountains.
The silence around him made Tanjirou fall into his thoughts, and the words of Shiroha and Rintaki Sakonji kept echoing in Tanjirou's ears.
"Is it sublimation? Are the things that I learned just the skin and not the essence?" Tanjiro asked secretly in his heart.
Thinking about it, Tanjirou waved his knife and tried, and the blade slashed on the boulder, making the sound of metal hitting a hard object.
This time, Tanjirou's whole body went numb.
Another half year passed like this. During this half year, without the guidance of Rintaki Sakonji, Tanjiro repeated his previous practice every day and tried to cut off the boulder.
And Hakuba would also take the time to fight against Tanjiro, but Tanjiro lost every time.
"Senior Bai Yu, am I very useless~ It's been half a year, and I still haven't cut off the boulder."
Chapter 25 The Return of Rintaki Sakonji
Tanjirou, who had lost his strength lying on the ground, began to disbelieve himself.
"Tanjirou, your breathing is too stiff, so your body is forced to respond. What the old man taught you for half a year, you just simply remembered it in your mind. You didn't incorporate the breath of water into it. In the bones, if you don't overcome this, you can't cut off the boulder." Hakuba slowly pointed out Tanjiro's fatal flaw.
Although a year and a half of practice has indeed made Tanjirou grow a lot, but his body has not completely sublimated and absorbed what he has learned during the practice.
Tanjirou's breathing was so stiff that he couldn't realize the full potential of water breathing.An attack launched at this level would not be able to sever the boulder.
.....
After a flickering, half a year has passed, and the world repeats its cycle of this year. The snowflakes in winter fell into Bai Yu's hands. Bai Yu stood outside the wooden house, looking up at the snowy sky, and muttered: "Start again. It's snowing! Another year has passed!"
In this year, Rintaki never appeared again. Everything in the wooden house was taken care of by Hakuba, and Nezuko was also taken care of by Hakuba.
Because after that duel, Tanjiro has never come down on Sagiri Mountain.
So for the past six months, Nezuko has been taken care of by Shiroha.Regularly wiping the body is naturally indispensable. In Bai Yu's opinion, this is a beautiful errand.
In this way, Shiroha naturally had a close contact with Nezuko.
