Chapter 20

Five days after leaving Butterfly House, Fujiki Mountain

"Just like in the anime, the trees on both sides are full of wisteria flowers."Ji Qingfeng admired the beautiful scenery in front of him and walked slowly on the mountain road.

""Are we there yet?" Looking at the steps ahead and the Torii-like building on top, Ji Qingfeng murmured to himself with some emotion."How long has it been since I came to this world? I can't remember clearly."

Ji Qingfeng suddenly felt as if he had always lived in this world and had completely gotten used to it. The Earth where he grew up seemed like a dream.

‘There are so many people. In the original work, when Tanjiro came to take the test, there seemed to be many people too.’

‘Are there so many people every year?’

‘I don't know how many people besides me can complete the assessment safely.

After coming to the platform, Ji Qingfeng looked around and found a corner to close his eyes and rest.

Ji Qingfeng didn't care about the life and death of these people. If they were not strong enough, they would die in the mission of the Demon Slayer Corps even if they didn't die here.

Besides, this was daytime, and he never forgot it.

After it was completely dark,

"Welcome everyone to participate in the final selection of the Demon Slayer Corps tonight"

"In this Fujiki Mountain, the demons captured by the Demon Slayers are imprisoned."

"From the foot of the mountain to the foot of the mountain, wisteria flowers bloom all year round, which ghosts hate, making it impossible for ghosts to leave this mountain."

"But from here on, there are no wisteria flowers in front, and all the ghosts are locked inside."

"The qualification for the final selection is to survive in there for seven days."

"Well, please be careful on your way."

Ubuyashiki Teriya, who was dressed in women's clothes and had black hair, and his twin sister Ubuyashiki Kanata spoke one sentence at a time and then made way.

Under the gaze of the two siblings, the people who came to take the test walked into the woods ahead one after another.

When Ji Qingfeng passed by the two, he smiled and nodded, as a greeting, and then walked into the forest.

When he was at the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters, Ji Qingfeng had met several of Ubuyashiki Yoshiya's children, and after learning Japanese, they occasionally spoke a few words.

As for the question of why Ubuyashiki Teriya was dressed in women's clothes, he also asked Ubuyashiki Yoshiya, who said that it was because of a curse that boys would be weak and sickly since childhood, so they would be raised as girls before the age of 13. Ji

Qingfeng could not understand this at all. He was a boy, but he could avoid the curse by dressing in women's clothes. This...Unless there is a god in this world, the curse was cast by the god.

The god's IQ must not be high, and his eyesight must not be good, so that he could be fooled by a boy dressed as a girl.

Ji Qingfeng really couldn't think of any other reason to explain such an outrageous thing.

After entering the woods, Ji Qingfeng suddenly remembered something.

What did he eat during these seven days?

It's no wonder that he didn't remember the plot of Demon Slayer. Before he traveled through time, he had already entered the society and worked for many years. He worked overtime every day, and watching anime only occupied a small part of his life, plus he had been in this world for so long.

Except for the general plot, he had forgotten other details.

"Tsk, it's not a pleasant feeling to be hungry."

"The wild animals in the mountains may have been eaten by ghosts long ago, but the fish in the river should not have been eaten up."

"Let's see if there are any springs or streams in this mountain."After making up his mind, Ji Qingfeng began to wander around in this dark forest.

"Well, are there any fruits on the tree? Ghosts shouldn't eat fruits."

Ji Qingfeng looked for food slowly, just like he was traveling. In fact, this test really didn't make him nervous. Even the so-called hand ghost didn't interest him at all.

"Hohoho." A hungry ghost with yellowish skin and four or five horns on his forehead quickly rushed out from the woods nearby.

"You look very hungry, your saliva is dripping down to the ground."

Ji Qingfeng continued to walk forward without stopping, not paying any attention to the ghost in front of him.

"Come to think of it, I'm a little hungry too, so I'm not in the mood to play with you."

Zizi, the moment the hungry ghost rushed in front of Ji Qingfeng, a purple light flashed across its neck.

Plop, bang, the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground sounded behind Ji Qingfeng.

The hungry ghost with khaki skin didn't know how thick the steel plate he kicked was until he died.

After killing the hungry ghost like a bug, Ji Qingfeng looked at the Sun Blade in his hand, and saw a faint dark purple light flowing on his body, and occasionally a dark purple arc would jump out from the blade.

Since a few days ago, he found that the color of the sword he used seemed to have changed. At first, it just gradually changed from gold to blue, and then gradually changed to purple.

"Has it turned black and purple? Well, it's better than purple, which always feels a bit sissy."

"This color looks dangerous just by looking at it now."

Ji Qingfeng doesn't really like purple. If it's lightning, he still prefers blue.

After sheathing the knife, Ji Qingfeng continued to look for something to eat.

"It's really annoying. How many ghosts did the Demon Slayer Corps catch this year?"

After killing another overconfident ghost, Ji Qingfeng frowned and looked at the sun rising in the sky.

Not only did he not find anything to eat that night, but he was also attacked by these ridiculously weak ghosts while walking. Ji Qingfeng must have killed more than ten ghosts that night.

A toad lying on your feet doesn't bite you, but it annoys you.

As the sun gradually rose, the ghosts gradually disappeared and hid. All the people who were still alive in the woods breathed a sigh of relief temporarily, and only Ji Qingfeng was a little annoyed.

"If I had known, I would not have come here. I would have just gone to Ubuyashiki Yoshiya to get in through the back door."

"There are still six and a half days left. If I still can't find food during the day, I'll just starve. I won't die of starvation anyway."

"Instead of looking for food, why not find a place to continue practicing?"

Ji Qingfeng yawned and continued to walk into the woods.

Time gradually came to noon.

"Ha~ um~ Let's find a place to take a nap in the afternoon. I'm a little sleepy."

Looking at the sun in the sky and the flocks of birds flying by from time to time, Ji Qingfeng yawned.

Wait!

Birds?

You can shoot a few birds and roast them for food. Just be careful not to shoot crows. Just find the kind of birds that fly in groups.

After Ji Qingfeng reacted, he was no longer sleepy. He picked up some stones on the ground and climbed to the top of the tree.

He picked up a stone and clamped it between his thumb and index finger like flicking a coin, aiming at a group of large gray birds flying in a V-shaped formation in the sky.

Whoosh, after Ji Qingfeng flicked the stone hard, a large bird fell down.

"Hit it!"

Ji Qingfeng's eyes lit up, and after seeing the approximate direction, he ran towards the direction where the big bird fell.
