Chapter 66: Kagura, the God of Fire

Tanjuro wanted to stop him, but his chest began to hurt. His throat itched and he started to cough violently.

"Father!" Little Tanjiro stood aside in panic, wanting to help but not knowing where to start.

The oden boss heard Tanjuro's violent cough, hesitated for a moment and turned back, gently patting Tanjuro on the back, "You really need to rest well."

Boom! ! ! !

As soon as the voice fell, a huge noise suddenly came from the woodworking shop in front, and the whole shop shook violently, scaring everyone around.

The next second, a black shadow flew out from it and fell right at the feet of the oden boss.

It looked like a human, but it was covered with sharp teeth and claws, and its face was hideous.

The oden boss was frightened and kept retreating after just one look.

Although it was not noon, the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the ghost, and it still burst out with amazing power, instantly igniting its whole body.

"Ahhhhh!!!!"

The ghost's painful wailing attracted many vendors to watch.

Some people were so frightened by this scene that they trembled all over, with strong fear and confusion.

What is this?

Everyone watched the monster that looked like a human being burned to ashes.

And Tanjuro had already blindfolded little Tanjiro, and watched the whole process of the monster's death in a thrilling way.

Everything is true.

"Where is that young man?" Tanjuro, who came to his senses, looked at the woodworking shop. It was dark inside and nothing could be seen.

"Was this monster thrown out by the young man just now?" The owner of the oden was almost scared silly, his face pale.

While the two were still wondering, Chu Yang had already left the shop from the back door, arrived at the woods outside the city, and took out his saber.

The noise just now was too loud, and it was not convenient for Chu Yang to stay in the town, and it was not convenient for him to have too much communication with Tanjuro in public, which would not be good for his future life.

So Chu Yang simply took advantage of the commotion to sneak out.

He climbed up a tree, leaned against the trunk to take a nap, and waited for Tanjuro outside.

After a while, Tanjuro slowly appeared at the end of the mountain road with little Tanjiro.

"You're so slow."

Chu Yang jumped down from the tree and landed in front of the father and son.

"Thank you for what happened just now. If it weren't for you, I would have run into that ghost." Thinking back to what happened just now, Tanjuro was still frightened and extremely grateful.

"It's not about gratitude. I saved you for a reason." Chu Yang waved his hand, and then said seriously: "I want to make a deal with you."

Tanjuro was suddenly at a loss. In addition to selling charcoal, he had nothing worth trading.

Chu Yang said straight to the point: "I want you to teach me Kagura dance. As a deal, I will give you a lot of money so that you and your family can live better."

"So that's how it is." Tanjuro immediately realized that Chu Yang was attracted by his family's Kagura dance. He thought about it and felt that it was right. The only thing he had that was valuable was Kagura dance.

"But...how do you know about Kagura dance?" Tanjuro asked in confusion.

"Let's talk while we walk." Chu Yang bent down and picked up Tanjiro, who was still sleepy, and walked ahead on his own. Tanjiro was stunned for a moment and hurriedly chased after him.

Afterwards, Chu Yang told Tanjiro the origin of demons, the history of the Demon Slayer Corps, and the friendship between Tsugikoku Yoriichi and Tanjiro.

For this man whose life was about to end, Chu Yang didn't need to hide anything. With Tanjiro's character, he wouldn't spread these secrets everywhere.

As they talked, the two were almost at Tanjiro's home in the mountains.

After learning everything, Tanjuro felt an indescribable emotion in his heart. He didn't expect that in the end, the Breathing of the Sun would be passed down in this way.

"It seems that my short life is meaningful." Tanjuro smiled, his eyes flashing with a brilliance that he had never had before.

"Even if you don't mention the Breathing of the Sun, you are also an excellent father. The meaning of your life is not given by the Breathing of the Sun, but by your children." Chu Yang replied sincerely.

Mentioning his children, Tanjuro was relieved. In any case, he had to leave something behind to make his wife and children live a little easier in the future.

He had no reason to refuse Chu Yang's deal, and the other party didn't look like a bad person.

In the end, Tanjuro danced the Kagura dance for Chu Yang at the door of his house. His movements were very smooth and agile, and he didn't look like a sick person at all.

After dancing once, Tanjuro was ready to continue dancing for the second time, but was stopped by Chu Yang. With Chu Yang's talent, he could remember the key points just by watching it once.

If Tanjuro danced the Kagura dance twice in a row, his body would be seriously overdrawn.

According to the agreement, Chu Yang left a fortune to ensure that after Tanjuro's death, the orphans and widows he left behind could live a good life.

And this fortune happened to be obtained from the ghost in the woodworking shop.

The ghost has been in human society for many years, preying on humans, and likes to loot things from the dead as his trophies. Over time, the valuable things on his body have become more and more.

Chu Yang is not very interested in wealth, and no amount of wealth can be exchanged for the Breath of the Sun.

In addition to wealth, Chu Yang also deliberately used Wood Release Chakra to help Tanjuro restore some vitality. Although it cannot completely cure his illness, it can extend his life for a few years, so that he can have the opportunity to watch Tanjiro grow up.

Interestingly, Tanjiro seemed to feel something in his sleep.

Holding tightly onto Chu Yang's clothes to prevent him from leaving, Chu Yang spent some time to break free.

After saying goodbye to Tanjuro's family, Chu Yang's lonely figure disappeared into the darkness again.

Tanjuro stood by the door, looking at Chu Yang's back.

In the dark night, he looked up at the sky and prayed sincerely in his heart.

"May God bless you!"

...

After leaving Tanjuro's house, Chu Yang returned along the same route, and when he passed by the town again, it was particularly lively.

The carpentry shop was full of blood.

The bodies of the boss's family were eaten by ghosts. How could such a horrible crime scene not cause a sensation?

More importantly, many vendors witnessed the whole process of the ghost's death.

Just when Chu Yang was worried about what to do.

Around the town, he saw members of "Hidden".

Obviously, they were sent by the Demon Slayer Corps to deal with the subsequent impact.

The town is geographically remote.

It is not easy to spread news and rumors, and the impact is not great, so it is relatively easy to deal with.

The really tricky thing is the battle that broke out near Kyoto, which is difficult to conceal. The Ubuyashiki family even has to use official connections.

In a small place like this, as long as the money is in place, no matter how big the problem is, it can be suppressed, and the Ubuyashiki family is not short of money.

Professional matters should be left to professionals. Chu Yang has no intention of making things worse, but plans to return to the temple to practice the Breath of the Sun, and if the mission comes, he will go to kill demons.

As for the Butterfly House, Urokodaki Sakonji will naturally go to visit Makomo after he figured it out. This is not something Chu Yang can interfere with.

After joining the Demon Slayer Corps, Chu Yang began to live a life of killing demons and practicing, a straight line between two points.

The situation of Chu Yang in the One Piece world and the Naruto world is roughly the same.

On the other side, in the Harry Potter world, Chu Yang ushered in the first Halloween since his school career at Hogwarts.
