Chapter 55 The Hiding Place of the Ghost on the Strings
Moreover, this was something Ubuyashiki Takayuki personally agreed to. As the nine pillars who respected the leader the most in the Demon Slayer Corps, they did not raise too many objections to this.
"Please tell me everything you know." In the ward, Uesugi Yue and Su Yu sat face to face, "I have been a Shangzhu for two years. During this period, I have never encountered the ghost of Shangxian, and I don't know them.
What is the strength of it?"
"It wasn't until recently that the appearance of Shangxian One made me truly realize how powerful Shangxian is. You can survive the battle with him. For this reason alone, your strength is worthy of recognition."
"However, I don't believe that you know where the Ghost of Winding is hiding. It's just that the lord personally ordered me to come, so I can't refuse."
Uesugoshi spoke a lot at once, and unlike his cold appearance, he couldn't stop once he started speaking. However, sometimes he spoke too fast, and it was easy for people to overlook the details.
How should I put it... This icicle feels somewhat similar to the water pillar Tomioka Giyu of the Taisho era, but he is not disliked, but has some similarities in personality.
"So, where is the hiding place of the ghost that you mentioned?" Yue Uesugi looked at Su Yu with an extremely serious expression. Zhu was like this. Whenever anything related to ghosts was mentioned, they would change.
Have to be very serious.
"Yoshihara Flower Street." Su Yu slowly spit out four words.
Yoshihara Flower Street is the hiding place of the brother and sister Riku Shouhime and the prostitute Taro. They were born there and have always regarded it as their base after becoming ghosts.
In the more than a hundred years after becoming ghosts until the Taisho era, the two of them killed seven pillars and eleven pillars respectively. Such achievements are enough to make the ghosts of the lower class admire them, and they will not even be able to achieve them in their lifetimes.
corresponding achievements.
The most important reason why Su Yu chose the two of them as his targets was because they were the only Shangxian with a fixed base point.
Although the Second Tongmo of Shangxian established the Eternal Bliss Sect and has always appeared in front of the world as the leader of the Eternal Bliss Sect, the Eternal Bliss Sect often travels to various places, and it is not an easy task to lock its position.
.
What's more, when the two siblings, Fallen Princess and Prostitute Taro, were promoted to the top rank, Tong Mo was already the second top rank, and was second only to the strongest top rank one, Black Death Mou, in the ranking of top rank ghosts.
Su Yu is still just an inferior horse now. Even if he tries his best, he can only defeat the weakest Fallen Princess. Even her brother, the prostitute Taro, may not be able to defeat her.
With such strength, are you going to challenge Tongmo, the Second Shangxian? I guess ten of them together wouldn't be enough to kill Tongmo.
"Yoshiwara Flower Street? Why do you think the ghost of the wind is hiding there?" Uesugi Yue couldn't help but ask questions. Although Su Yu's expression was very serious when he answered, there is still no evidence to prove that the ghost of the wind is hiding in the Yoshiwara Flower Street.
.
So he needs an explanation, a reasonable explanation, an explanation that can convince him.
"You should know that Flower Street is a place where wandering girls gather. Women there basically have no human rights. Even if they disappear suddenly, they will only be considered as running away. Such an environment is really suitable for ghosts to hide, especially those with an appetite.
The huge twelve ghost moon.”
Su Yu gave his own explanation. When he said this, there was actually something he couldn't understand.
The fallen princess killed seven pillars, the prostitute Taro killed eleven pillars, and the two brothers and sisters killed seventeen pillars together, and they were always in the same place. A hundred years have passed like this, and the Demon Slayer Squad has no suspicion.
Will there be any hiding places in Yoshiwara Flower Street?
Only Uzuki Tengen, the sound pillar of the Taisho era, noticed this and led the four protagonists to destroy the land of wind. This setting can actually be regarded as a BUG.
"Your judgment is still a bit untrustworthy." After listening to Su Yu's explanation, Uesugi couldn't help but fall into deep thought, "However, your guess is well-founded. Yoshihara Flower Street is a place with a bad reputation, but it is very popular.
The place."
"I haven't been there, and I don't know why you know so much about it, but Yoshiwara Flower Street is indeed a place worth investigating. If possible, I hope to leave as soon as possible."
"Before that, I have another question. My lord allows you to act with her. Are you going to take her with you to Yoshiwara Flower Street this time?"
Uesugoshi pointed at Jingu Ruri, who was sleeping soundly, and said that this kind of place was like hell for an outstanding-looking woman like her.
The wandering girls in Flower Street cannot choose to do business or sell themselves. Once they have a pretty face and an unscrupulous boss, they will basically become the toys of the customers.
Unless they are oirans, low-level prostitutes will have a very miserable life.
Su Yu bringing Shen Gong Liuli with him was basically the same as sending a sheep into a wolf's mouth.
However, he had already thought of this, so he naturally had the best response strategy.
Ordinary members of the Demon Slayer Corps can distinguish the aura of ghosts at a glance. Whether they are weak ghosts or powerful Twelve Ghosts, they can understand and detect them.
But the ghosts are different. They can only distinguish the aura of Zhu. If a team member below the level of Zhu sneaks around, they won't be able to detect it for a while.
Therefore, Su Yu would not let Jingu Liuli sneak directly into the store to find the land of winding strings. Instead, like Sound Pillar Yuzhu Tianyuan, he would look for traces of ghosts outside.
Once Su Yu finds out which store Shang Xian Zhi Lu is in, he will immediately bring the news to Shen Gong Liuli, so that he can catch them all.
There is no need to worry about my younger sister, Fallen Princess. Her strength has not yet reached the level of true upper string, so she is just a little stronger than the lower string ghost.
The most critical thing is his brother, Taro the prostitute. In the original work, Yuzhu Tianyuan, the sound pillar, can instantly kill the Fallen Princess with one strike, but when facing Taro the prostitute, he can only parry. The gap between the two is just a glance.
You can see it.
Therefore, if you want to defeat the prostitute Taro, you may need two pillars to join forces, so Su Yu specifically asked Ubuyashiki Takayuki to send a pillar to help him investigate.
Jingu Ruri and Uesugi Koshi will deal with the prostitute Taro, while they themselves will deal with the Fallen Princess. As long as they cut off the heads of both of them at the same time, they can defeat the Uangogen Land and reduce the number of Uangogen who has not changed their lineup for decades.
