Chapter 169 Nezuko
Chapter 169 Nezuko
Feng Xiaodao’s courtyard.
The moonlight shrouds the earth like a veil.
In the quiet courtyard, Feng Xiaodao hugged Chanae for a rare moment and watched the moon quietly.
There is also a cheerful figure playing with the cat in the courtyard.
It's rare that both of them are night owls, and running under the moonlight is the happiest thing.
"Aaaaaah..." The cheerful figure took small steps to chase the cat and made happy sounds like a baby.
"Xiaodao-kun, isn't it a bad idea to leave her here? If people knew about this, it would affect you!!"
Although Kanae felt happy looking at the cheerful figures, she couldn't help but worry about her beloved.
"Where else can you put it if not with me? Should you put it with the action team? Wouldn't that make it easier to be discovered? Don't worry, I have already informed the leader. As long as it is not discovered by outsiders, it will be fine."
Feng Xiaodao touched Kanae's soft hair and said nonchalantly.
"Nezuko is so pitiful. Such an innocent and lovely girl turned into a ghost who can only play in the dark because of an accident." Kanae sighed with sympathy as she looked at the figure in the yard.
"But it's good this way." Feng Xiaodao said softly, "At least she's still alive, Tanjiro is still fighting for her, and you're also working hard with Miss Tamayo to research medicine to turn back into a human. With so many people fighting, there's still hope, isn't there?"
Kanae nodded, leaned her head on Feng Xiaodao's shoulder, looked at the demon girl in a braided kimono with a bamboo tube in her mouth and said silently:
"We will definitely be able to research a human transformation potion, and we will definitely make Nezuko a happy girl again!!"
"I have always believed in this!" Feng Xiaodao said with a smile, "Nezuko is also working hard! Just like Miss Tamayo, as long as she is not a demon in her heart, she is a human being!"
"Speaking of which, we have studied Nezuko's blood and Miss Tamayo's blood. It's fine when they don't come into contact with human blood, but once they absorb too much human blood, it will instantly boil and produce huge vitality. You should pay attention to Nezuko in the future!"
Kanae suddenly thought of her research and reminded herself.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. I'm Lord Daozhu. Are you afraid that a little girl will hurt me?" Feng Xiaodao said confidently.
"Hmph, I'm not worried about you. I'm afraid that Nezuko will do something that will make her regret and sad in the future!" Kanae said after giving Feng Xiaodao a blank look.
"Nezuko is not as weak as you think. This little girl's willpower is comparable to that of her brother."
"Speaking of Tanjiro, I suddenly remembered that tonight is the day the action team has a rest. Tanjiro will come over to see Nezuko in the evening!" Kanae suddenly sat up and said.
"Yeah, so what?" Feng Xiaodao didn't know why Kanae brought this up.
"Hmph, I don't want to be seen like this!" After saying that, he stood up and left Feng Xiaodao's arms.
Feng Xiaodao smiled and said, "Why did you bring this up? It turns out you were shy and afraid of being seen, so you could only feel the remaining warmth in your hands reluctantly.
At this time, Nezuko seemed tired of playing, so she ran to Feng Xiaodao and sat down next to him.
"Aiyaya...!" Nezuko raised her head with an innocent smile on her face and shouted to Feng Xiaodao.
"What is she talking about?" Although Kanae didn't understand, she could still feel that Nezuko was very happy.
"She said she was having a lot of fun and asked when her brother would come!" Feng Xiaodao translated Nezuko's language in seconds.
"You know this language?"
"I guessed it!!"
……
On the small path outside the action team, two figures were walking quickly in the moonlight.
"Tanjiro, where are we going? It's so dark... I'm a little scared!" Zenitsu followed behind Tanjiro, holding the corner of Tanjiro's clothes and said tremblingly.
"Afraid? If you're afraid, why are you still following me... It's a rare holiday, why don't you stay in the dormitory and have a good rest?"
Tanjiro said speechlessly that today was the day he would see his sister, but he didn't know why Zenitsu insisted on following him, and he was not good at refusing. Although he was very reluctant, he thought that Zenitsu was Mr. Xiaodao's junior apprentice, so it didn't matter if he knew!
"I thought you were planning to secretly go on a date with Kanao, so I followed you and asked Kanao to introduce other girls to me!" Zenitsu explained guiltily.
"Ah? Zenitsu-kun, I'm going to see my sister, not Kanao!" Tanjiro explained, "Why don't you go back now? It's not far from the dormitory now!"
Zenitsu looked at the dark environment around him and heard the occasional crows. It seemed as if there was something terrifying hidden in the darkness. He shuddered involuntarily and said timidly:
"Forget it. I'll just go with you. I also want to see what your sister looks like. She won't have a huge scar on her face like you, right?"
Tanjiro would never allow his sister Nezuko to be slandered like this, and said proudly: "No, Nezuko is the cutest and a well-known beauty in town!"
Tanjiro regretted it right after he finished speaking, forgetting that there was a crazy fan next to him. As expected, Zenitsu said with a crazy look on his face:
"So Tanjiro, your sister's name is Nezuko. Nezuko... sounds like a cute name. I'm... looking forward to meeting her!"
Tanjiro could only continue forward with a gloomy face, silently praying in his heart that Mr. Xiaodao would look after Zenitsu-kun.
"We're almost there, just ahead!" Tanjiro quickened his pace, his heart filled with excitement and longing.
Finally, the two arrived outside Feng Xiaodao's house.
"Wow, the Demon Slayer Corps has such a luxurious courtyard. Is Tanjiro the illegitimate son of some big shot?" Zenitsu asked in surprise, looking at the gate in front of him.
"You'll know soon. Remember what we agreed before, you're not to tell anyone about coming here!!" Tanjiro reminded again.
"I know, I know... I will definitely keep this secret. I'm counting on Tanjiro-kun to help me pass the test!" Zenitsu nodded quickly in confirmation, his heart full of anticipation.
A girl from a rich family must be so charming and outstanding! I, Shan Yi, want to be a live-in son-in-law!
"Knock knock knock..." Tanjiro knocked on the door gently.
The door slowly opened, and a gentle and beautiful woman appeared before the two men.
"Tanjiro you're here to see Nezuko!"
"Sorry to trouble you, Lord Hanashiba, but I'm very sorry. There is a new friend tonight, my roommate Agatsuma Zenitsu, who is also Mr. Xiaodao's junior." Tanjiro bowed and said apologetically.
"Greetings, Lord Hana-Hiyasu, I... I am my wife Zenitsu!!" Zenitsu didn't expect that the person here was so important, actually a pillar-level lord. Although she was super beautiful, the aura of that big shot made him very nervous.
"Zenitsu, I know you. Okay, don't stand here. Come in quickly." Kanae's voice dispelled Zenitsu's tension like a spring breeze.
The two of them followed Kanae into the yard obediently.
Soon two figures appeared before his eyes.
"Nezuko!" Tanjiro only had eyes for his lovely sister.
"Master... Senior Brother!" Zenitsu looked at the familiar figure with horror, his legs starting to go weak again, and he had only one thought in his mind. "Is it too late to go back now? I'm not afraid of the dark!!"
