Chapter 479 The dark shadow outside Zamen’s house

text

The starting point of the original work of "Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba" is the seemingly inconspicuous "cat breaks the vase" incident.

The original author's original intention was to naturally bring out "Kamado Tanjiro"'s greatest sense of cheating, but little did he know that this also became the best reference point for Luo Jie to judge the progress of the plot.

Of course, this incident itself has no connection with the subsequent "Kamamon family extermination" incident.

In the original plot, "Tanjiro Kamado" had a hard time selling charcoal that day. He didn't finish selling the charcoal he brought down the mountain until it was almost dark. Since there were rumors circulating in the town that walking at night would be attacked by ghosts, he didn't I traveled all night and stayed at the home of a kind uncle.

Because of this little episode, "Kamado Tanjiro" escaped by coincidence.

When another shadow crow brought back the image of "Kamado Tanjiro" staying in the town's house, Luo Jie did not release the crow again. He raised his head and glanced at the setting sun with only its afterglow in the west. He walked out of the gate of the house and walked straight towards the distant house. Walk into the forest.

In fact, there was no need for him to go so early.

In the original work, "Tanjiro Kamado" returns home early in the morning and finds that his family has been attacked by ghosts. Among the six members of the family, only his younger sister "Nezuko Kamado" is still alive.

This shows that the ghost appeared very late, and it was not until dawn that it found and attacked Kamado's family.

But Luo Jie had his own plans.

Call him hypocritical or call him troublesome. Ever since he came to this world and got to know the Kamado family, he has always wanted to do something to change the cruel fate of this kind and honest family.

Especially after "Kamado Tanjiro" taught him the "God of Fire Kagura" without any doubt, this idea became stronger and stronger in Luo Jie's heart.

He never thought about going against the will of the world and forcibly changing the main plot.

"Kamado Nezuko" must become a ghost, and "Kamado Tanjiro" must also join the Demon Slayer Squad.

But at least, he hoped that under this premise, he could save even one more member of the Kamado family who died in vain.

When Luo Jie arrived near Zaomen's house, it was completely dark.

A dim light from an oil lamp shines through the cracks in the wooden walls of the Kamado family's cabin. The sounds of "Hanako" and "Shigeru" playing, the cry of "Rokuta" and the sound of "Nezuko" coaxing the children to sing all add up to the cold weather. The windy winter night in the mountains and forests adds a touch of warm color.

Luo Jie roughly estimated the distance and dug a snow nest under a tree about ten meters outside the Zaomen family's wooden house.

He was not afraid of the cold in the mountains, but creatures like ghosts were very sensitive to the smell of living people, so he had to minimize the smell on his body as much as possible.

Otherwise, if the ghost senses an ambush and doesn't show up, or simply comes to him first, it will be self-defeating.

At some point, light snow began to drift in the sky.

The falling snowflakes gradually smoothed away all traces on the ground, and even covered the snow nest where Luo Jie was hiding with a layer of natural camouflage. At first glance, it seemed that it was just an ordinary snow hill in the mountains and forests.

Luo Jie closed his eyes and reduced some body movements as much as possible.

After closing the vision, the human body's second largest sense, hearing, also becomes more acute.

He could even clearly hear the sound of burning coals in the wooden house more than ten meters away, as well as the chatter of Kamado's family sitting around the fire pit.

"Sister, haven't you confessed your love to Mr. Nightmare yet?"

Suddenly hearing his name, Luo Jie's ears couldn't help but twitch, and he subconsciously focused his attention away from monitoring the surroundings and focused a little more inside the wooden house.

"Hanako, don't talk nonsense, I...I just...have nothing to do with Mr. Nightmare..."

"Sister, you are so dishonest. We have all seen the safety guard you made for Mr. Nightmare."

"Ah? How come even Takeo, you...Mom, you don't care about them! Look what Takeo and Hanako have become!"

"Okay, okay, Nezuko is blushing. You two should stop teasing your sister."

"Haha, sister is shy!"

Luo Jie smiled knowingly when he heard this and regained his distracted attention.

The wind and snow in the mountains and forests never stopped, and the lights at Zaomen's house had been extinguished at some point.

Luo Jie lay quietly in the snow nest, monitoring the movements of the outside world through sounds and vibrations on the ground.

His mental power attribute at this moment has reached 1500 points, which is more than 100 points higher than before entering the illusion. Not to mention a sleepless night, it is not a problem even if he stays up for several days in a row.

Time passes bit by bit, slowly but never stopping.

The heavy snow that had fallen all night gradually stopped, the mountains and forests covered with silver became increasingly quiet, and it was the darkest hour before dawn again.

Suddenly, the sound of heavy footsteps, which was obviously different from that of a beast, reached Luo Jie's ears through the ground without concealment.

Luo Jie opened his eyes suddenly.

Through the bright reflection of the snow, I could see a human-shaped black shadow appearing and disappearing in the woods not far away, and I could faintly smell the smell of blood that had not yet dissipated.

It's a ghost!

The "ghosts" of Country J and the "ghosts" of Dragon Country are two completely different concepts.

As we all know, there is no such thing as "ghost" in the Dragon Kingdom. Most of the so-called "ghosts" are people pretending to be ghosts or having mental problems.

The "ghost" in country J generally refers to some kind of humanoid monster similar to a mountain spirit, and most of them have a pair of sharp horns on their heads.

The "ghost" in "Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba" is different from any of the above. Its setting is closer to a mixture of Western vampires and J country ghosts.

Since it has the habit of cannibalism of J country ghosts, it also has the iconic feature of Western vampires who are afraid of sunlight and can use their own blood to create vampires.

The best among them will also have a special ability called "blood ghost technique", which is full of strange things and extremely difficult to deal with.

The original work never mentioned what the ghost who killed Kamado's family looked like. Anyway, "Kamado Tanjiro" saw the whole family in order as soon as he came home, except for his younger sister "Kamado Nezuko" There are still weak breaths.

Therefore, Luo Jie had no way of knowing the strength of this ghost that had never appeared in the original work.

If it's the "lower string" level in the Twelve Demon Moon, he can still fight, but if it's the "upper string" level, with his current level of strength, he may have no choice but to give up his plan to save Kamado's family and run as far as he can.

After a while, the ghost approached Kamado's cabin.

Through the reflection of the snow, Luo Jie could clearly see the appearance of this ghost.

This is just the most ordinary ghost, with tattered clothes and a thin body. If it weren't for the iconic sharp fangs and nails, it would look more like a down-and-out homeless man wandering the streets.

Seeing this scene, Luo Jie breathed a sigh of relief.

In the original work of "Demon Slayer", the ghosts are divided into four major classes.

The first level is the original ghost "Oni Wu Tsuji Muzan". All the ghosts in country J are his direct or indirect descendants.

The second level is "Twelve Ghost Moons".

These are the twelve strongest ghosts who have been given the blood of "Kibutsuji Muzan". The number is fixed but the personnel are not fixed. Once someone dies, new ghosts with potential will be found to fill the vacancy.

The third level is the ghost created by "Twelve Ghost Moon" intentionally or unintentionally with his own blood. UU Reading www. uukanshu.net

These third-level ghosts belong to the reserve army of the "Twelve Ghost Moons". Some of them possess blood ghost skills and are the backbone of the ghost clan.

The fourth level is made from the blood of level three ghosts.

This kind of ghost can also be called a "miscellaneous ghost". Apart from its strength and immortality, it has almost nothing to praise, and its intelligence is also very questionable. It is completely a bloodthirsty and man-eating beast.

Generally speaking, level four ghosts are the limit. After all, the concentration of "primordial blood" at this level is not enough to create new ghosts.

Because of this, the world of "Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba" has been dominated by humans for thousands of years and has not been occupied by "Demon Slayer" and his blood descendants.

And the one in front of him was obviously the lowest level four "miscellaneous ghost".
