Chapter 29 The Fiery Pillar Swordsman
"The feeling that that person gave me is very similar to that of Uncle Owl before." Shen Gong Liuli suddenly said. Su Yu turned around and found that she was also observing the guest.
Uncle Owl... Although this title is very strange, Su Yu can still tell immediately that the person Jingu Liuli is talking about is Purgatory Xinbei, because that hairstyle is so easy to remember.
As for the guest, he was wearing fluffy clothes. Judging from his temperament, he should be a man, but because his back was turned to them, he couldn't see his face clearly.
No matter how you look at it, this is just an extremely ordinary passerby, with nothing noteworthy at all. However, Jingu Liuli said that he gives people a very similar feeling to Purgatory New Taipei.
This is definitely not a coincidence. Just like in a fantasy novel, the protagonist accidentally helped a beggar, but he did not expect that the beggar was actually the leader of a top sect. In order to find a suitable successor, such a trial was specially arranged.
.
Therefore, the more ordinary people appear during this time period, the more extraordinary they are.
"It's really incomprehensible."
Su Yu and Shen Gong Liuli were not ready to say hello, but the other party spoke before them.
"I really can't understand why your lord wants to leave this area to you to manage. I am obviously more suitable." He turned around slowly, revealing a handsome face, but there was no emotion on it.
Fluctuating, the whole person exudes an invisible sense of oppression.
Su Yu frowned slightly, obviously he had not noticed it at all just now, but it was not until the other person spoke that he realized that that person's aura had actually reached the level of a pillar.
It is not difficult to hear this from what he just said, but it is completely different from the passionate Purgatory New Taipei. This unknown pillar-level swordsman does not seem to be so friendly.
"My Lord, when he makes such a decision, he naturally has his own thoughts..."
Most of the pillar-level swordsmen are arrogant people. Although each generation of pillar-level swordsmen absolutely obeys the Ubuyashiki family, they are not so friendly to other people, especially unfamiliar lower-level members.
.
For example, right now, before Su Yu finished speaking, he was directly interrupted by the other party: "I'm not talking to you. If you're not a Zhu, just shut up. You're not qualified to let me take it seriously."
As soon as these words came out, the air in the shop suddenly solidified, a subtle atmosphere gradually spread, and an unhappy look appeared on Su Yu's face.
I have seen arrogant people, but I have never seen such arrogant people. If he couldn't defeat the opponent, he would probably take action directly.
Jingu Liuli took a step forward, and she stretched her hand towards the handle of the Nichirin sword at her waist, as if she might draw the sword at any time.
She could ignore anything, but Su Yu would never tolerate it if anyone dared to bully him or embarrass him.
"I can't understand why you protect him so much. For Zhu, if you keep a weak person by your side at all times, he will only become a burden that hinders you from slaying ghosts."
"Besides, I have no ill intentions towards you, I just like to eat the udon noodles here, so I'll give it a try when I have time." After a pause, he continued expressionlessly, "It took me so long to kill one.
Ghost, as a pillar, your efficiency is really low."
"Even if you successfully rescued the residents who were about to be killed by the ghost, how many innocent people died at the claws of the evil ghost during the period of your investigation?"
"As a pillar, it is a very stupid thing to waste time, so try to leave the person you rely on. That will only be good for you. If you keep him by your side, he will not be able to improve his strength."
After saying that, he casually threw a few coins on the front desk of the store. Just before walking out of the door, he didn't forget to turn around and give a reminder.
"My name is Kitahara Kagaya, I am the Kasumi Pillar among the Nine Pillars, and the area I am responsible for is Edo West. If you are unhappy with my attitude today, please find an opportunity to have a friendly sparring match with me. If
If you can successfully defeat me, I will apologize to him."
Then, under the gaze of Su Yu and the other two, a young man named Kitahara Kagu walked straight out of the shop, followed closely by the crow who had been staying on the roof tiles. As time went by, his back was gradually submerged in the darkness.
.
When the camera returned to the store, the boss accepted the coin thrown by Kitahara Kagu very calmly. He seemed not to be surprised at all by the scene just now, as if similar things happened often.
"What on earth is going on with that guy? It's so annoying!" Shen Gong Liuli sat down on the chair, folded her arms, and puffed out her mouth with a dissatisfied expression.
Su Yu acted relatively calmly, thinking that he had never experienced such a thing before. The Demon Slayer Team has a very high class concept. When a lower-level swordsman meets a higher-level swordsman, he can basically bow his head, especially the column with the highest rank in the team.
In every Nine Pillars session, there are more or less one or two guys who like to bully lower-level swordsmen. In the main plot, the Wind Pillar Immortal Kawa Saneya and the Snake Pillar Iguro Kobanai play such roles.
However, the two of them only look fierce on the surface. Saneya Fusugawa is because of his bad temper, and Iguro Kobanai is because of his arrogant personality. But when an accident happens, they are always the one in front.
Typical knife mouth and tofu heart.
I wonder if Kitahara Kagaya is like them. Most swordsmen who become pillars will be willing to give up their lives to protect others. Guys like Hiiragi Abuchi who are willing to become ghosts in order to change the status quo are rarely seen.
I don’t know who this generation of Demon Slayer Squad has offended, so that such an unlucky wimp could appear.
"I'm not in the mood to eat noodles anymore." Jingu Ruri put her chin on the table and looked unmoved by the steaming udon noodles brought by the boss.
Her words may seem to others to be really angry, but in Su Yu's opinion, Shen Gong Liuli's intention is to let him feed her noodles. This kind of thing happens all the time, and it has been like this since childhood.
.
Obviously what Kitahara Kagu said was so good, why didn't Jingu Ruri listen to a word of it?
Su Yu sighed helplessly, with a wry smile on his face. He could only pick up the steaming udon noodles, and then put them into Jingu Liuli's mouth bit by bit.
After eating the noodles, Su Yu and Shen Gong Liuli paid and left the shop. When they went out, the sky outside had gradually brightened, and the fiery red sun rose from the distant horizon.
The crow flew over their heads, bringing with them a new mission, which meant that their journey of killing ghosts still had a long way to go.
