From Demon Slayer, the sword is invincible
Chapter 50 The Missing Girl
After listening to the description of the Demon Slayer Corps, Feng Xiaodao finally realized that he had come to the right place. Although he had not found Kanae yet, he had some news about her, so at least he didn't have to run around anymore.
It turned out that there had been frequent cases of missing young girls in this town recently. Most of these missing girls were young, beautiful and came from wealthy families.
The members of the Demon Slayer Corps initially suspected that they were abducted by human traffickers and taken to fireworks places such as Yukuo, but after multiple contacts and visits, they found that this was not the case.
These girls came from wealthy families with perfect security measures at home, and there was no sign when they disappeared. Therefore, the members of the Demon Slayer Corps began to suspect that this was the work of a powerful evil demon.
Normally, when encountering such incidents, they will report to the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters and request that powerful personnel be dispatched for support.
However, since there are many women involved and not many people with the corresponding strength in the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters, the task finally fell to Hanabe Kanae. She rushed here day and night, and immediately threw herself into the case investigation without even taking a rest.
Sure enough, as soon as Kanae arrived, she found something suspicious: these missing girls had gone to a temple in the city to worship before they disappeared. So she led several team members to investigate the temple.
"Master Yidao, is there a big problem with that temple?" The person in charge of the stronghold raised his question.
Feng Xiaodao did not answer this question but asked: "I still don't know your name, team member?"
"Sir, just call me Yamaguchi! It is my duty to defeat the evil spirits. If necessary, please take me with you. We are not afraid of sacrifice!" Yamaguchi didn't know what Feng Xiaodao was thinking, so he expressed his determination first.
"Okay, Yamaguchi, I'll remember you." Feng Xiaodao said expressionlessly, "Now, take me to the temple you mentioned."
Feng Xiaodao already has a hunch that this temple might be one of the strongholds of the Eternal Paradise Cult, and that this mission must be related to Douma. He just doesn't know if it was premeditated, and whether the Demon King Muzan is also involved.
Logically speaking, in the original work, Muzan could observe from a distance through the perspective of other ghosts, and he had killed the Xuanyue ghost twice, which would definitely attract its attention. However, if it was Muzan's premeditated plan, there was no reason for him to find Kanae instead of himself, or to find Kanae first and then himself.
If it is really Muzan who notices me, I have to be careful. I cannot kill him with my current strength. I can only rely on the invincible sword to fight for a chance of survival. Facing Douma, I can only say that the chance is 50-50.
While thinking and hurrying on the road, Yamaguchi soon arrived in front of the temple with Feng Xiaodao. He saw that the temple had an exquisite appearance and the overall style was similar to the characteristics of the wooden frame stilt buildings during the Sui and Tang Dynasties. However, perhaps because of the scarcity of tall timber in the Sakura Country, the overall building was not very tall.
Although it is a temple, it should give people a feeling of peace and tranquility, but Feng Xiaodao always felt that this exquisite temple exuded a weird atmosphere at first glance.
"Yamaguchi, do you know anything about this temple?" Feng Xiaodao was unfamiliar with the place, so he first asked the local person in charge, Yamaguchi. This was also one of the reasons why he was willing to take him with him.
Shan Hou recalled: "As far as I know, this temple existed decades ago, but it is very strange!"
"What a strange method?"
Yamaguchi recounted the story with a nostalgic look: “For example, our general temples are more respectful of Buddhism and are places where ordinary people often go to worship and celebrate festivals, but this temple is not very common Buddhism, and their teachings are different from those of the general public.
They advocate a calm attitude to live a happy life. There is no need to force yourself to do things that make you uncomfortable or painful. The rich agree with this view, but it is still too far for ordinary people. "
Feng Xiaodao was certain that this was the Eternal Paradise that Douma was in, because the teachings were exactly the same as in the original novel, and he said disdainfully:
"Yamaguchi, you are still too modest. This is not too far away. It is difficult for ordinary people to survive in this world, so how can we talk about living a happy life?
Only the nobles and the rich think that this world is beautiful! If it weren’t for the fact that this time it was related to Kanae, it might be because of the evil spirits that I would rarely care about such things! "
Yamaguchi scratched his head and smiled, but did not deny it. He continued to ask, "Master Yidao, is there really something wrong with this temple? Are the missing girls caused by the temple's people?"
"It wasn't the people in the temple who did it, it was the things behind them!"
Feng Xiaodao did not directly tell Yamaguchi that Douma was the mastermind behind the incident because he was afraid that this group of people would impulsively make unnecessary sacrifices. Since he had already decided to act alone, it would be inappropriate to involve Yamaguchi and the others in some things.
"Master Yidao, should we go to the temple to ask first or wait until night and come here secretly to investigate?" Yamaguchi asked tentatively. He was not such a pedantic person.
Feng Xiaodao's eyes flashed with a barely perceptible ruthlessness, and then he said to Yamaguchi very seriously: "I can handle the next thing by myself, you don't have to follow me, too many people will be bad.
You wait patiently at the base. If I don't come back in time, then wait for the support from the headquarters and then act together."
"Or let me follow you alone, Lord Yidao, I'm not an inflexible person. I know many team members are young and impulsive and won't understand some behaviors, but I believe I can help you!" Yamaguchi said excitedly.
Only then did Feng Xiaodao seriously look at the boy who was one or two years younger than him. Yamaguchi also met Feng Xiaodao's gaze without fear, showing his determination.
"Okay, then arrange to follow me for a long time, and obey me no matter what I do. Can you do it?" Feng Xiaodao hesitated for a moment but still wanted to give it a try. He also wanted to start training some people of his own. They didn't have to be strong, but they had to be able to do things.
"Yes, sir, I will obey your orders even if it means death!" Yamaguchi shouted excitedly.
"Okay, let's go!"
After the other team members left, Feng Xiaodao led Shankou straight to the temple and carefully observed the surroundings. He found that the Buddha statues here all had strange eyes, as if they were watching everyone who entered the temple.
As soon as I walked into the main hall, a monk wearing a strange hat came over with two little novices and said:
"Two laymen, this is the main hall of my religion. Please take off your weapons before entering to worship!"
bass!
Yamaguchi was about to explain something when he saw Feng Xiaodao draw out the Sun Blade without hesitation. He wanted to say something but thinking of what Feng Xiaodao had just said, he closed his mouth and watched what happened.
"I don't have time to waste with you crazy believers. I ask questions and you answer them, otherwise you will be like this pillar!"
Feng Xiaodao said this domineeringly, and with a light wave of the Sun Wheel Sword in his hand, a stone pillar outside the hall split apart like tofu.
All of a sudden, the three monks in front of him broke out in cold sweat.
