I don't want to be an elf!

It was already late at night, without the influence of the sun, Nezuko, who was usually hidden in the box, could move freely outside.

But Wuhe Qinli's attention was not on her.

"You failed in your persuasion?"

Seeing that there was no one else around Kamado Tanjiro, Itsuka Kotori frowned: "Aren't the two potential members you mentioned willing to join Ratatosk?"

"Don't worry, they are not unwilling to join. After I told them about you, they all showed great interest." Kamado Tanjiro replied, "It's just that they usually act carefully. Be wary, not sure if you can really be trusted."

Wuhe Kotori naturally knew who the two potential members Tanjiro Kamado was talking about were.

Zhushi and Yushiro.

As ghosts, they are one of the few special cases that can survive without eating people.

It's just that unlike Nezuko, who only needs to sleep to restore energy, they have not completely reversed their instincts as ghosts, but only suppressed them, so they still need to suck a small amount of human blood to maintain their sanity.

The most important thing is that the two of them may also be the two ghosts who are on the opposite side of Oni Wu Tsuji.

Moreover, they are also the two experts who have the most say in the study of transforming ghosts into humans and how to change ghosts' eating habits.

These two ghosts were drawn into Wuhe Qinli's camp no matter what.

"Reasonable doubt, if I were them, I wouldn't trust a stranger in the first place."

Facing the cautiousness of the other party, Wuhe Qinli expressed his understanding: "Then what do I need to do before they are willing to believe me?"

Kamado Tanjiro did not speak.

Just standing with Nezuko, standing in the same place without a word.

Just when Wuhe Qinli was wondering why this guy didn't say a word, as if he remembered something, his eyes showed some enlightenment.

Soon, as she expected, two figures appeared in the grass not far away, as if by magic.

"Nice meeting, Miss Wuhe."

Wearing a kimono embroidered with flowers, a woman exuding traditional femininity walked slowly and came to the two.

Behind the woman, followed a man who seemed to have a bad temper, looking at Wuhe Qinli with vague vigilance and hostility.

"Please forgive my impoliteness. In order to confirm that you are not sent by that man, I have to observe first."

Zhu Shi's voice was soft and gentle, which sounded very soothing, and he would have a good impression unconsciously: "I didn't notice the same blood on your body as other ghosts, nor did I feel the imprint of that man, look The appearance is exactly as Tanjirou said, and you are also a special ghost."

Ghosts, according to common sense, are monsters that eat people.

Anyone who is sensitive to breath can detect the strong smell of blood on the ghost at a glance.

As for Zhu Shi, she can not only distinguish the ghost's identity from the bloody smell, but also from a deeper level.

That is the cell of Onimiya Tsuji.

Every oni was once human, and after being endowed with the blood of Kimai Tsuji, he became a monster like him.

However, Guiwu Tsuji is not kind to his own kind, but even more cruel.

It can be said that the life of any ghost that possesses his cells is in his hands. With just one thought from Muzan, his life will be easily taken away.

Because the Wuyou cells bring ghosts not only power, but also curses.

The former Zhu Shi was also one of the monsters.

It's just that, with her continuous research on Wumi cells, she found a way to eliminate the curse in Wumi cells and got freedom.

In the research of Wuyan cells, maybe even Guiwu Tsuji Wuyan himself doesn't have Zhushi's understanding.

As for the reason why they appeared out of thin air just now, it was because Yushirou's blood ghost technique was capable of manipulating vision and creating illusions.

Before Wuhe Kotori arrived, he must have prepared talismans drawn with his own blood in advance to cover up the traces and breath of the two of them.

"Now that my identity has been confirmed, the small talk is unnecessary, let's get to the point."

Regarding the appearance of the two of them, Wuhe Qinli did not show any surprise, and said straight to the point: "I know you must have a lot of questions that you want to ask me, just ask, and I will answer everything that can be answered."

"Tanjiro said that Miss Itsuka is a vigorous person, and it seems that she is indeed so."

Zhu Shi nodded, without being too polite, and asked: "About your organization, Ratatosk, Tanjiro said that it is a neutral organization that does not belong to the Demon Slayer Team or Demon, and its goal is to end human beings. A war between ghosts, right?"

"Yes."

"So, how are you going to do this?" Zhu Shi asked earnestly, "The conflict between humans and ghosts has lasted for a long time, and it is definitely not a person or a ghost. Ability ends."

"That's why I established Ratatosk, recruiting capable people and ghosts."

"If you want to end the war, the most direct way is to eliminate Onimai Tsuji. Why do you think that with the organization you just founded, you can do things that the Demon Slayer Team has never done in years?"

"The answer is simple."

Wuhe Qinli outlined a mad smile on the corner of his mouth.

The aura she exuded, with the appearance of Shenwei Lingzhuang Fifth Fan, surged to the point that it made people's face change drastically.

The crimson flames swept across, causing the temperature of the surrounding air to soar instantly.

Like being in the magma, even the air was burned and distorted, and the heat waves burned all the weeds with a radius of ten meters, turning them into fly ash.

"Lord Zhu Shi!"

Yushiro, who had been silently looking at Wuhe Kotori, took a sudden step forward, protecting Zhu Shi behind him.

As the ghost's instinct was stimulated, Yushirou's human appearance suddenly became hideous, and the whites of his eyes were stained with a terrible scarlet color.

Even Tanjiro Kamado and Nezuko retreated again and again, as if they were afraid of being affected by the flames of this essence and getting burned.

"Because I have power that the Ghost Slayer Team never had."

In the rising flames, Wuhe Qinli looked like an immortal flame phoenix, and raised his chin haughtily: "The power is enough to kill Kiwu Tsuji."

I have to admit that the strength she has shown has exceeded Zhu Shi's expectations.

The most direct way for ghosts to improve their strength is to eat people.

The greater the number of cannibals, the stronger the ghost will be.

But if you don't gain strength by cannibalism, another more convenient way is to get more blood of Kibu Tsuji.

The more blood in Oni Wu Tsuji's body, the stronger the upper limit of strength.

This is why ghosts also fight each other.

Guiwu Tsuji was stingy with distributing his own blood, so they could only snatch it from their own kind.

However, for ghosts, the two fastest ways to improve their strength will not work for Wuhe Qinli.

There was no bloody smell on her body, which meant that she hadn't eaten humans or ghosts for a long time.

And for a ghost like her who is not controlled by the curse contained in Wuyou's cells, it is even more impossible for Guiwu Tsuji Wuyou to give her more blood.

Therefore, before meeting Wuhe Kotori, neither Zhushi nor Yushiro took her strength to heart.

This was one of the reasons why they dared to meet Wuhe Kotori directly.

But now they find that they were wrong.

Big mistakes.

"Your strength is indeed very strong. Ordinary pillars, and even the most powerful Twelve Ghosts Yueli Shangxian among the evil spirits, should not be your opponent."

Zhu Shi suppressed the shock in his heart, and said in a calm voice as much as possible: "However, Gui Wu Tsuji's strength is far higher than Zhu and Twelve Ghost Moon's. With your current strength alone, you still can't defeat he."

"Did I say that this is my full strength?"

Wuhe Qinli chuckled, restrained the surrounding flames, and made everyone feel better: "Even if you are safe from the scorching aftermath, this forest will be burnt to the ground because of my power... .I think you don't want to attract attention, right?"

"It's exactly as you said."

Zhu Shi nodded slowly.

Whether it is Zhu Shi, who has never eaten humans for hundreds of years, or Yushiro, who has not needed to eat humans since his birth, their powers are extremely limited.

Not only do you need to avoid the capture of Onimai Tsuji, but also the search of the Ghost Killing Squad.

They lived in seclusion in Asakusa, relying on their carefulness for a hundred years.

If Wuhe Qinli really burned the entire forest to the ground and attracted the attention of the ghosts and the ghost killing team, it would be the worst news for them.

However, after seeing a corner of Wuhe Qinli's power, Zhu Shi's confidence also increased a lot.

Although based on her past experience, she still thinks that Oni Wu Tsuji is stronger, but it is undeniable that Wuhe Qinli is definitely not weak.

The aura exuded by the figure standing in the flames even gave her a vague feeling of facing... that person.

"Fire...breath of the sun..."

As if thinking of something, Zhu Shi's eyes flickered with a thoughtful look.

If there is anyone who can win against Ghost Dance Tsuji Mumi, then she will only give one answer.

500 years ago, the man who made Onimai Tsuji deeply fearful.

The strongest swordsman of the Demon Slayer Corps in history, the one who succeeded the country.

Zhu Shi couldn't help looking at Nezuko who was blinking aside.

If this girl became a ghost, the reason why she was able to maintain her sanity was that the family had inherited part of the essence of the Breath of the Sun...

Does Wuhe Qinli also have some kind of relationship with that man who was a man who blocked and killed gods and ghosts?

Looking at Wuhe Qinli's red hair and red eyes, a guess appeared in Zhu Shi's mind.

"Could he be...a descendant of Enichi Jikun?"

Zhu Shi's flat expression was mixed with some anticipation because of his guess.

If Itsuka Kotori really inherited the bloodline of Enichi Tsukuni, it would indeed explain that after she turned into a ghost, she not only gained super strength without doing anything, but also remained sane like Nezuko. the reason.

Jushi still clearly remembers how powerful that man was.

Even the ancestor of the ghost, in front of the man who uses the lost breath of the law of the sun, is as small as an ant, and cannot even bear the power of his sword.

As if her guess is really correct, then Wuhe Qinli may really be able to end the war between humans and ghosts.

But even if not, Zhu Shi would only be slightly disappointed.

After all, being able to get the protection of such a strong person can also give her a sense of security for a character like her who lives in the gap between humans and ghosts.

Taking a deep breath, suppressing the messy emotions in his heart, Zhu Shi spoke slowly.

"I'm willing to join your organization." Zhu Shi said, "Although I can't fight, I still have some experience in medicine. If you meet other ghosts who are willing to join the organization, I can treat them so that they don't lose weight. You need to eat people to stay sane."

"Since Lord Zhu Shi has said so..."

Although he was somewhat reluctant, Yushiro always agreed with Zhushi's decision and echoed: "Then, I can only join together."

However, after finishing speaking, he immediately added: "Although we have joined your organization, you have to make it clear that we are not your servants. If you want to instruct Lord Zhu Shi to do any dangerous things, I will not Will agree!"

"Don't worry, I won't let you do dangerous work." Wuhe Qinli said, "On the contrary, you just need to continue to do your own work well."

The three continued to discuss for a while.

After reaching a consensus, Ratatosk officially ushered in two new members.

Chapter 8 An Unexpected Encounter in the Grove

The negotiations went very smoothly.

Becoming a member of Ratatosk, the relationship between Tamashii and Itsuka Kotori is no longer just strangers.

After agreeing to Wuhe Qinli's recruitment, Zhu Shi lightly coughed twice and said, "Commander, can I draw some of your blood?"

"of course."

Wuhe Kotori nodded without any resistance.

Zhu Shi's main job is a doctor, or in other words, a drug researcher.

Through her own continuous research, she got the opportunity to get rid of the control of Onimai Tsuji at the right time.

Even after she was freed from control, she didn't stop researching.

Not only did she successfully adjust her physiological structure, allowing her to maintain her sanity without eating human flesh, but she even created a ghost like Yushiro who is not only uncontrollable by Wu Mi, but even needs to drink a little blood to be safe and sound.

And she wasn't satisfied with that.

He even wants to go a step further and develop a potion that turns ghosts into humans.
