Chapter 2306 Prescription
Recently, Muzan Kibutsuji has been very angry because the new demons are not as good as the others. Even the performance of the lower strings cannot satisfy him. He is really angry.
Why are these demons so bad? People's hearts are not the same as before, and it is difficult to return to the past.
Muzan Kibutsuji thought that the older demons were more powerful and more competitive. The demons in the Taisho era were really broken demons. They were really the worst batch he had ever led. He wanted to kill all the new demons directly to save them from embarrassment.
Meeting!
All the lower strings are present. The performance of the lower strings is not good. Compared with the upper strings that have not moved for a hundred years, the lower strings are often replaced. Now even the spider upper string is exhausted. The most senior lower string is finished, and the remaining lower strings are in danger.
Muzan Kibutsuji has accumulated a lot of anger, and now he is just looking for his subordinates to vent his anger. To him, subordinates are just consumables, and garbage subordinates are useless. He doesn't feel bad about killing them.
Working under the demon ancestor adopts the performance system. The better the ghost performs, the more blood Muzan Kibutsuji will reward, making the ghost stronger.
But how does a ghost perform well? That is to complete the tasks of the Demon Ancestor, such as killing members of the Demon Slayer Corps, such as finding the flowers that the Demon Ancestor has been looking for, or the Demon Ancestor sometimes issues some tasks, and you can get rewards if you complete them.
However, the strength of the lower strings is indeed average. After all, the protagonist group started to brush experience from the eliminated lower strings, and continued to brush to the incumbent lower strings.
The remaining five lower strings were scared because the aura of the Demon Ancestor was too terrible. Besides, they were also guilty because they knew that they did not perform very well.
But they felt that the responsibility was not on the lower strings. As soon as this thought came up, the Demon Ancestor had seen through it: "Do you think you did a good job?"
"I don't know what happened recently. It seems that our prey has changed. We are not hunting smoothly."
"Destroy your own prestige and boost others' ambitions. You ghosts are really going backwards as you live." Anyway, no matter what, the Demon Ancestor has decided to give up these lower strings because they are too weak.
"Just give me more power." A lower-rank asked for it. He was looking for death because they had no say in whether to give power or not. It depended on the mood of the Ghost Ancestor.
"Are you teaching me how to do things?!" The Ghost Ancestor was murderous because he did not allow any ghost to rebel. Only he, the Ghost Ancestor, had absolute authority. Other ghosts were not allowed to question, betray, or disobey, otherwise they would die.
Boom!
The Ghost Ancestor waved his hand, and the ghost who asked for power was shattered to pieces. It was obvious that he would not survive.
The others were shocked and did not know what to say. The pressure was too great.
Some wanted to escape because the Ghost Ancestor was obviously going to take it out on them. But now they were in the Infinite City of the Ghost Ancestor. This was a space created by the Ghost Blood Art. It was free to change and they could not escape at all.
Another one, blood and flesh fell like rain, and life withered like a flower.
"I can give it to you, or I can take it back." "You disappoint me, and that's why you die."
Facing the demon ancestor who has come to kill them, the demons are scared to death. Only the lower string one is not afraid but excited, because he thinks it is a great honor to die in the hands of the demon ancestor. His worship of the demon ancestor is blind.
Even if he dies, as long as the demon ancestor does it himself, it is a worthy death, so he is obsessed and even laughs foolishly. Faced with this blind worship, the demon ancestor is willing to give him a chance, give him more blood, and let him play big.
"Why bother? They are obviously our own people, but they are in turmoil first. As expected, villains are villains, and they only think about themselves." Duran pulled all these demons back, not letting them cross the underworld, and let them listen to the scriptures. Now there are already quite a few of them, and the scriptures can be transmitted to the ears of other demons and affect their minds.
During this period, Tanjiro was training, and by the way, he learned about his flame-like breathing, but the flame breathing has always been controlled by the Fire Pillar family, and others don’t know it. If you want to learn it, you can only go to the Fire Pillar.
However, the Fire Pillar Family has also declined these days. The head of the family is useless. One of the two sons has no talent for martial arts, so the last son is the only one left to support the family.
"So it is better for big families to have daughters. Having sons is likely to fail due to environment and talent, so it is better to have daughters. You can choose the best son-in-law and recruit them. As long as they marry into the family, they can also introduce talents to the family." Duran made suggestions on the survival of big families now.
In fact, some big families have begun to change according to Duran's statement, but Duran was the first to publicly propose this, and he did it in front of the head, because the head has four daughters. If four excellent sons-in-law are chosen, then the strength of the Demon Slayer Corps may be improved.
The head knows that Duran will make new suggestions every time he comes. From the selection of the Demon Slayer Corps to his own affairs, he has to worry about it. It is really too troublesome.
Looking for a son-in-law? I really haven't thought about this kind of thing. The head of the family has always been succeeded by men, but each generation of the head does not live beyond the age of 30. If the son-in-law is allowed to take over, I don’t know if the son-in-law can stick to the original intention of the Demon Slayer Corps.
But using a son-in-law to help the family prosper is a good idea, because choosing a son-in-law is indeed safer than giving birth to a son. Giving birth to a son is like gambling on stones, most of the time you will lose miserably, while choosing a son-in-law is like playing an open hand. Anyway, what is important is the bloodline and the surname, as long as these two are preserved, it will be fine.
Although the master has four daughters, they are all still young. Because he knew he would not live past 30, he had children like crazy in the few years after marriage. He was lucky enough to have two pairs of twins, but unfortunately they were all girls. Finally, he had a son. After that, his body did not allow it, he was too weak.
"Master, you are not here just to talk about recruiting a son-in-law, right?" asked the master.
"Of course there is one more thing, it's about the blue flower of the other shore. This is what Ghost Ancestor has been looking for, and I have found it." Duran took out a vase and said, "This is a very rare and precious flower presented to me by believers when I was on tour. It is also the medicine that Ghost Ancestor believes can help him overcome the sun."
"We must not let him overcome the sun."
"In fact, I really want to know what prescription the doctor who treated Ghost Ancestor wrote. He could turn people into ghosts, and then let ghosts overcome the sun. It's a pity that such a doctor was hacked to death. If he were still alive, he might have left more incredible prescriptions."
"Although it is respectable that the doctor saved people, he turned people into ghosts. It's better not to spread this prescription, otherwise there might be more evil ghosts in the world." The master didn't feel sorry for him. Regret: "Since this flower is so important, please keep it well, or destroy it directly, just like the prescription."
"In fact, the prescription has not been lost, it is still in the hands of the ghost ancestor, because the doctor's notes have not disappeared." Duran said. The ghost ancestor killed the doctor and took away the notes. This note can be regarded as a national treasure-level antique: "But I believe that Muzan Kibutsuji is more afraid of the notes spreading than you and me, because if the notes and prescriptions can really turn people into powerful ghosts, then the ghost ancestor will lose its uniqueness and specialness. At that time, everyone will be the ghost ancestor, and Muzan Kibutsuji will no longer have a sense of superiority. So don't worry, the notes are very safe now."
However, Duran's smile made the master uneasy, especially the mage said that if everyone is the ghost ancestor, it can hit Muzan Kibutsuji's self-esteem, so does the mage want to make a big one?
