Chapter 143 Tanjiro's Healing Ability
Samagiri Mountain,
A normal day.
"If you want to join the Demon Slayer Corps, you must survive the [Final Selection]. Although you can give up the selection and survive, it is still up to me to decide whether you can participate in the final selection.
I will not let my disciple give up in such an occasion, especially a man, it is better not to go! Do you understand? Tanjiro! "
Urokodaki Sakonji, wearing a Tengu mask, spoke seriously to the strong child.
"I know! I will never give up, I can hold on!" Tanjiro said firmly while swinging his knife hard.
"Prove it with your actions. If it weren't for Yiyong's request, I would never have accepted you as my apprentice. You are too gentle, and a ghost hunter needs decisiveness and calmness. Compared with others, you need to be calmer and more decisive.
If you can’t do that, how are you going to protect your sister who has turned into a ghost?? ! ! "
Urokodaki Sakonji expressed without any mercy that he simply looked down on Tanjiro.
"I will definitely work hard!!" Tanjiro still shouted loudly, without any anger, as if he was expressing his determination to the teacher, and also as if he was cheering himself up.
"You don't need to prove anything to me. Your strength will give you the answer you want. If you regret it in the future, just blame it on your laziness now. After practicing sword swinging, continue with the next training!!"
After saying this, Urokodaki Sakonji disappeared in a flash.
Tanjiro still insisted on swinging the sword, and waited until the training was over before he silently said to himself: "Tanjiro, don't be discouraged, Urokodaki Sakonji is also a very good teacher, he just can't express it. You know he cares about you in his heart."
Then I started going down the mountain for training day after day, constantly avoiding various traps while running at high speed. I have been doing this boring and difficult training for a period of time.
But Tanjiro also deeply felt that his physical strength was constantly improving and the sensitivity of his nose was constantly getting stronger. All of this was getting closer and closer to his goal.
As long as he can join the Demon Slayer Corps, he will have the chance to kill Muzan, who caused Nezuko to turn into a demon, and he will have the chance to find a way to turn his sister back into a demon. Now Nezuko can only rely on her brother.
After Tanjiro reached the bottom of the mountain, sweating and panting, he rested for a while, then dragged his tired and unconscious body to draw out the sword and swung it again and again.
"Only when you swing the sword close to your physical limit can your body remember the feeling of swinging the sword!!" Tanjiro always remembers his teacher's advice.
Just as Tanjiro gritted his teeth and swung his sword, a hearty voice suddenly reached his ears.
"Hey, charcoal seller, you're swinging your knife the wrong way. You won't make any progress this way. Although the knife is hard, it's also easy to break. So don't just use brute force. Otherwise, when you encounter something harder, not only will the knife break, but you'll also become a one-armed hero! Haha!"
Tanjiro looked around vigilantly, trying to find the hiding place of the person who made the sound, but after looking around he didn't find anything wrong.
I just closed my eyes and used my natural sense of smell to find the person coming. Who would have thought that as soon as I found something, I heard:
"No need to look for me, I'm right in front of you!!"
Tanjiro opened his eyes immediately and suddenly found two figures in front of him, one big and one small, one cheerful and the other indifferent.
Although he marveled at the unfathomable skills of the visitor, he felt a surge of joy after seeing his appearance clearly.
"Mr. Feng Xiaodao, it's you. I'm so happy to see you. I haven't even thanked you for the money you left when you left last time!" The joy of suddenly meeting a familiar person who is also your benefactor is indescribable.
"You're welcome, it's just some small money. How have you been recently? Have you found your goal?" Feng Xiaodao asked with a smile.
Tanjiro answered with a firm look in his eyes: "Yes, I will join the Demon Slayer Corps, find a way to turn my sister back into a human, and I must kill Muzan for revenge!"
Feng Xiaodao nodded slightly, expressing his appreciation. "Not a bad ambition. But relying solely on brute force to wield the sword is not enough. Skills are equally important."
After hearing this, Tanjiro's eyes flashed with surprise, and he bowed eagerly and asked: "I hope Mr. Feng Xiaodao can give me some pointers. I know you must be an extremely powerful swordsman."
Feng Xiaodao's eyes turned, and suddenly he had another idea, so he pretended to be embarrassed and said: "I also hope to guide you, but you are the student of Senior Urokodaki Sakonji, I can't take your place!"
"If it's inconvenient, it's fine. Mr. Xiaodao has already helped our family a lot. I'd be sorry to cause you any more trouble!" Tanjiro was not unhappy at all. Instead, he cheerfully comforted Feng Xiaodao and felt sorry for himself.
Feng Xiaodao really witnessed the gentleness of this child. Although he felt a little sad, he still had to go through with the plan.
"How about this, charcoal seller, let me make a deal with you. If you do me a favor, I'll go explain everything to your teacher and then guide you later. How about that?" Feng Xiaodao suggested a solution.
"Mr. Xiaodao, there's no need to be so troublesome. Just tell me what you want. No conditions are needed!!" Tanjiro said with a silly grin, scratching his head.
Feng Xiaodao could feel that the child was sincere in what he said. It was a good thing, but it was a pity that it did not follow the routine!
So he said directly: "Okay, okay, I know you have good intentions, but the matter has been decided. And let me give you a tip, charcoal seller, being blindly kind and well-intentioned is not necessarily a good thing!!"
Tanjiro didn't understand what Feng Xiaodao meant. Is it wrong to be a kind person? But Mr. Feng Xiaodao must have his reasons for saying this, so he could only keep his words in mind for the time being.
"Mr. Xiaodao, if you have anything to say, just tell me directly!"
Feng Xiaodao pointed at Chanaihu beside him and said, "This is one of my disciples. How about you take her out to play for a few days and have a good exchange with her?"
"Ah? Is it that simple? Mr. Xiaodao." Tanjiro said in confusion. He thought it was something important. But that's right. Even if it was an important matter, he didn't have the ability to help.
Feng Xiaodao smiled and nodded, then said to Chanao: "In the next few days, you should get along well with the charcoal seller. This is also one of the attempts!"
Kanao nodded silently in agreement.
"Okay, I will definitely take good care of Miss Kanao!" Tanjiro agreed happily.
Feng Xiaodao's purpose is very simple. Since Kanao finally became Tanjiro's wife in the original work, he should take care of his wife himself, just like Iguro and Kanroji, and he can only play a supporting role at most.
If it really doesn't work, think of a solution yourself, otherwise it would be too much trouble to leave everything to yourself.
After letting the two get to know each other, he left a few words and disappeared in a flash.
"You guys chat first, I'm going to go discuss some business with Mr. Urokodaki Sakonji!!!"
The two young boys and girls were left standing there in a somewhat awkward position.
