Eighth Crown

Ghost Slayer Headquarters.

Another ten days have passed since the Swordsmith Village incident, and nearly twenty days have passed since Lucia and Esdes came to this world.

These days, the ghosts from all over the island country seem to have disappeared completely. After ten days, almost no ghosts were found moving and eating people, as if they were restrained and transferred away by humans.

Thanks to this, the members of the Ghost Slayer team did not need to walk outside, and most of them returned to the headquarters, preparing for the upcoming decisive battle.

Even Esdes stopped going out to hunt evil ghosts, and stayed in the headquarters all the time. When he was bored, he would replace Liuxia with special training in stripes, abuse the pillars, and move his muscles and bones.

Liu Xia's number of kills also stopped at 25, and he was still 5 away from completing the Lingji update task, but as long as he killed the remaining Shang Xian and Ghost King Wumian, it was enough to complete this task.

"Gui Wu Tsuji Wu Mian is undoubtedly also restraining the ghosts under his command. I am afraid he also wants to gather all his subordinates and decide the winner and loser with us in one breath."

In Yozai's yard of the maternity house, the current leader of the Ghost Killing Squad has become more and more sluggish, and even reached the point where he would be out of breath after walking two steps. arrive.

According to him, the maternity family has been condemned by heaven, and every generation of children will be cursed, and will be frail and sick from birth, especially boys, who basically never live beyond the age of 30.

Even Liu Xia couldn't understand this principle. Although he also understood some curses and magic related to the undead, the curse that lasted for thousands of years was not something he could understand.

The maternity house Shiki Yoshiya is only 23 years old this year, and his body is already weak to the point of being seriously ill. The flesh-colored raised lines on his face have taken up most of his face. According to the doctor's diagnosis, he has at most half a year to live.

"Today, when Shimi was walking down the mountain, he accidentally found an eyeball, an eyeball that seemed to be alive, looking around at the foot of the mountain, and was pinched by Shimi."

The smile on Zaiyashiki Yoshiya's face did not diminish, and even deepened, "It seems that Oni Mai Tsuji Wumai has already discovered the location of our Ghost Killing Team headquarters."

Lucia nodded, noncommittal.

He knew about eyeballs.

During the time Dotya was ambushed beside Wumei, she had already found out the abilities of many ghosts under Wumei.

This ability to create countless eyeballs, and then manipulate them to go around and inquire about information is the ability of the Sixth Ringer.

Naruto has two kinds of blood ghost techniques, one is the ability to control the space inside and outside the infinite city, and the other is the ability to control the eyeball. She usually uses this eyeball to check the information outside the infinite city. When teleporting the location, the eyeball will also be sent out to confirm the spatial coordinates.

For example, when she teleported the jade pot and Bantian dog to the swordsmith village, she actually dispatched her eyeballs to the vicinity of the swordsmith village. After knowing the approximate direction and distance of the village, she could accurately teleport people to that location. .

He originally planned that if there was no way to find out where the Ghost Killing Squad's headquarters was in a short period of time, Dotya would have to give the location without hesitating to reveal his identity, so there was no need to do so.

"How's everyone's special training on stripes going?"

Sanyashiki Yoshiya looked at Liuxia with those godless eyes, and this was the main issue he wanted to discuss with Liuxia today.

"Rock pillars, wind pillars, snake pillars, and Xia pillars have all mastered the tricks and can turn on the pattern at any time. They have completed the special training."

Liu Xia said indifferently: "Lianzhu, water column and sound column are still almost, but it's too fast, Zongzhu didn't put his mind here at all, I haven't been here these days, I've been researching something, and Yanzhu, although the two He just recovered from a serious injury a few days ago and joined special training, but he is making rapid progress."

"When the decisive battle comes, you should be able to achieve all the markings except the insect column butterfly ninja."

Because of the upcoming decisive battle, Tanjirou specifically came to Ryuxia and asked him to use the healing rune on them with all his strength. After Ryuxia agreed, he used his B+ rank magic to help heal with all his strength, so he let the wound that would lie down for a few months in He recovered in less than ten days.

Ianzhu and the other four who had completed the special training had just left, but Purgatory Kyojuro, Tanjiro, Zenitsu, and Inosuke also joined in, so there were still quite a few people doing the special training.

"Really...that would be great."

Although he said so, his face was still a little gloomy.

After the breathing swordsman awakens the markings, he will definitely not live to the age of 25. If all the members turn on the markings, it means that all the members will not live to the age of 25. This in itself is an explosive means to sacrifice life. Whether it is a good thing or a bad thing It's hard to say.

"If you are a pillar, you must bear the consequences that other swordsmen can't bear, do things that other swordsmen can't do, and bear the brunt of any situation. As long as we can kill Wumis, others can live In a good life, you don’t have to be threatened by ghosts, what is it that you can’t live to 25 years old? If we can kill Wuxiao on the condition of our lives, then even if we die on the spot, there will be no regrets.”

This was the answer that Lucia gave to the pillars after she told the pillars about the side effects of the stripes.

There is no one exception.

To be honest, even Liu Xia was impressed by their will and consciousness.

Although what he advocates is pure passion, the great love mixed with hatred of the ghost killing team is somewhat unpleasant to him, but this does not prevent him from changing their senses, from being a tool person to being a tool person. Funny tool man.

Therefore, even for Liu Xia, it doesn't matter whether the pillars open the stripes or not. Anyway, with his current strength, he can probably kill him without misery, but he continued to help with the special training.

And, who said you'll die if you turn on the stripes?

…………

Half a month passed in a flash.

On this day when the storm was about to come, an acquaintance visited the house where Liu Xia was.

It was a beautiful woman in a dark purple kimono embroidered with red flowers, looking about thirty years old, pale, with black hair parted in the middle and tied into a large, low hair at the back of her head A bun, and her eyes are as moist as mist.

"Zhu Shi?"

Liu Xia recognized the identity of the other party at a glance, and behind her was the boy Yushirou who was turned into a ghost by her.

"How will you be here?"

"It was the owner of the Sanyashiki who invited me and planned to work together to deal with the ghost dance Tsuji no miserable."

Miss Zhu Shi answered Liu Xia's question with the same dignified demeanor as in the past, "I had contact with the maternity house family a long time ago... I didn't expect the current maternity house owner to remember me. When I was invited, I was also taken aback."

But she still came, in order to kill the ghost dance Tsuji no miserable.
