...

After the Zhuzhong meeting ended, Su Yu and Shen Gong Liuli returned to Lingwu Xinyue's house. Because the injury had not fully recovered, Su Yu had to spend a month or two on rehabilitation training. Only in this way could he quickly recover.

Return to the team.

Along the way, Su Yu was worried about Shen Gong Liuli, because she also turned on her markings, which meant that she would not be able to live past the age of twenty-five.

Ubuyashiki Takayuki didn't tell Zhongzhu that he would not be able to live past the age of twenty-five. It was not because he didn't know, but because he didn't know how to say it.

When a person knows that he is about to die, even the Demon Slayer Squad will be shocked. Unless he is determined to die, no one can care about it.

The same goes for Jingu Ruri. She dreams of destroying Tsuji Mukai and living with Su Yu for the rest of her life, so she is not ready to face death and cannot accept this fact in a short period of time.

Seeing her innocent expression full of longing for the future, Su Yu had mixed feelings for a moment.

It was late at night, Shengong Liuli was resting in the ward, while Su Yu lit an oil lamp and wrote quickly on the paper with the help of the weak light.

This is a letter, a letter written to Zhu Shi. The content in it is probably an introduction to stripes. Su Yu wants Zhu Shi to help develop a drug that can allow striped people to live beyond the age of twenty-five.

Su Yu didn't know if Zhu Shi would agree. Even if she agreed, she might not be able to successfully develop that kind of medicine. After all, it was still the nineteenth century, and medical technology was not that developed. Many diseases could not be completely cured.

suffered the loss of falling behind.

Even so, Su Yu still wanted Zhu Shi to try it. When he sent the letter, he also specially included his own blood and Jingu Liuli's blood, because only the two of them had turned on the markings, so the blood would be useful for developing drugs.

Very helpful.

When she was in Nagoya, in order to prevent Su Yu from finding her in the future, Zhu Shi specifically told Su Yu the location of her next base, so that she could get the blood of Twelve Ghost Moons as soon as possible.

But now, Su Yu has other things to ask for. With Zhu Shi's character, in order to let the people who turn on the stripes survive, she will definitely do her best to develop the medicine that Su Yu needs.

As for whether it can be developed...that depends on fate.

...

"Rehabilitation training will start from today. In order to return to the team as soon as possible, I ask Kamado-san to treat me with a high spirit."

Early the next morning, Su Yu, who was woken up from his sleep, began rehabilitation training.

The person who performed the training was Ling Wu Xinyue, and the content of the training was similar to that of the Taisho era, which was to exercise the body's flexibility and durability in order to quickly recover from injuries.

These are nothing to Su Yu. With his physical fitness, completing these physical trainings is not a problem at all. The only thing that needs attention is combat training.

As the name suggests, fighting training is for Su Yu and Lingwu Xinyue to fight, in order to simulate the scene of fighting the enemy, and to prevent Su Yu from becoming rusty in his sword skills due to not fighting for too long.

Since the physical training is completed in only a few days, the combat training comes very quickly.

Lingwu Xinyue is one of the Nine Pillars. Her strength may be at the bottom among the Nine Pillars, but she is definitely not someone Su Yu can handle now.

After a week of fighting training, Su Yu was beaten basically every day, but he also mastered more fighting skills and improved his strength a bit.

However, if there was one thing that gave both Su Yu and Lingwu Xinyue a headache... it was probably the murderous look Shen Gong Liuli looked at the latter during fighting training.

Therefore, Lingwu Xinyue will not have too close contact with Su Yu when it is not necessary, because Shen Gong Liuli's jealous look is really scary, and even Su Yu was frightened when he saw it for the first time.

A big jump.

With her character, if she couldn't bear it that day, she might actually kill Lingwu Xinyue.

In order not to annoy this aunt, Su Yu would practice alone after the fighting training, and he also improved his breathing and sword skills day by day.

...

On this day, Su Yu was training in the yard as usual.

"Hello."

Suddenly, a cold voice came from his ears. Su Yu looked back in surprise, and saw a blue-haired young man coming behind him at some unknown time.

He was covered with a feathered fabric with the upper part white and the lower part shaped like snowflakes. His whole body revealed an unspeakable chill, like an ice sculpture standing in front of him.

"Pillar?" Su Yu was slightly startled. He had seen this blue-haired young man during the meeting of the pillars. He seemed to be the icicle among the nine pillars.

This was the first time Su Yu encountered Icicle, a ghost-killing swordsman who used the breath of ice. The breath derived from the breath of water, one of the five basic breathing methods.

"My name is Uesugi Goshi. My lord said before at the end of the meeting of the pillars that he would send a pillar to help you investigate the traces of the ghost of Uesugi, so I am here."

Is it the pillar sent by Ubuyashiki Takayuki to help him investigate the ghost of the wind? If he hadn't appeared, Su Yu would have almost forgotten about it, because he had been focusing on rehabilitation training during this period, and waiting for Zhu Shi.

reply.

The rehabilitation training is almost completed, but I haven't received a reply from Zhu Shi yet. I don't know if it's because the other party hasn't had time to reply, or if something unexpected happened.

"Please come this way." Su Yu brought Uesugi to the ward. Jingu Ruri hadn't woken up yet. She was lying on the hospital bed and fast asleep. She didn't look like a patient at all.

The injuries she suffered were much lighter than Su Yu's. Because she was a pillar, she recovered very quickly. When Su Yu just started fighting training, Jingu Liuli had actually fully recovered.

However, as Ubuyashiki Takayuki once said: "Only Jingu Ruri and Kamado Suu are the real Habashira. The bond between the two of them is different from ordinary people, so they can only work together if they act together."

Use all your strength.”

Because of this sentence, Jingu Liuli gained the privilege of not having to act alone, which made the other pillars very dissatisfied.

As a pillar, you should protect as many people as possible within the scope of your ability. Jingu Ruri's actions are just like child's play, and she completely fails to shoulder the responsibilities that a pillar should have.

However, some Zhu can understand the reason. After all, they have seen Jingu Liuli look like when she lost Su Yu. She is completely an autistic girl. Not to mention focusing on killing ghosts, even sleeping will be very restless.
