Chapter 217 Final preparations(1/2)
Mansions in the suburbs, at sunrise.
The orange sunlight shines through the blue glass windows, sprinkling the subtle remains on the sitting Muzan Muzan's face.
Although the latter would frown unnaturally from time to time, there was no obvious discomfort.
“How long has it been?”
He opened his eyes and looked at the sun in the temple standing by the window, his tone a little impatient.
"Thirty seconds left."
The sun in the temple first glanced at the vertical clock in the corner of the room, and then said helplessly: "I really don't know what you are afraid of? In addition to the first sunshine every day, you should be able to deal with the sun at sunrise. And the intensity of the sun through the tinted windows is not much different from that of the cloudy day. Such training is too unchallenging."
"I'm not afraid!"
Muzan Kimuzan raised his eyebrows, his tone unconsciously raised, and his expression also had a sense of intimidation.
"I have the final say whether it means something! Do you think you are smarter than me?"
Although he knew that speaking like this had no effect on some ghosts... but ghosts were driven by various obsessions and could not change their habits.
Before realizing that he was acting a little stupid, Muzan Kimuzan had completed a complete set of routine operations to treat other subordinates.
"Yes, yes, you said yes."
The sun in the temple shrugged as if it were, "It's time to change a window."
As he said that, he and Muzan Kimuzan moved behind another curtain on the same wall at the same time. After the sun in the temple opened the curtain, a piece of red glass appeared, dyeing Muzan Kimuzan's beautiful face turned red.
Muzan Kimuzan didn't know what he thought of, so he snorted coldly and closed his eyes.
This long and large room is facing the east, with five windows in total and five colors.
Every day at sunrise and sunset, sit quietly in front of each window for ten minutes. This is the desensitization training performed by Muzan Kimuzan to completely overcome the sunshine.
However, although occasionally he would cut off a finger and throw it into the sun to try the progress and effect of the exercise, he never dared to face the sunshine.
This also made the temple sun, who is a psychologist + personal servant + training, always complain about it.
After all, even he can now avoid fire in the midsummer noon sunlight for three minutes...
But Muzan Kimuzan didn't even dare to try it.
This ghost ancestor who kept saying that he wanted to overcome the sun was his limit just by basking in the sun through the colored glass.
"Or what if we change the windows back to colorless glass, it makes it look like a church here, which is somewhat inappropriate."
The sun in the temple suddenly suggested.
"You mean, am I worse than the God worshipped in the church?"
He deliberately skipped the topic of changing glass, but Muzan Kimuzan only grabbed the back and said nothing.
"They will be resurrected after three days of death. In essence, they cannot die. You just don't die easily. I think the gap is quite big."
“…”
A tic toe appeared on Muzan Kimuzan's forehead and said gritting his teeth: "Soon, there will be nothing in this world that can kill me."
Over the past few months, as Wusan's adaptability to the sun gradually improved, the old wounds left by Guoyuanyi on him had been completely healed.
There is no longer a vague anxiety to remind him of the greatest humiliation and anxiety in his life, which makes him feel very good about Muzan Kimuzan. It is only a matter of time before he becomes a real life without natural enemies.
As for whether you really need to bask in the sun to verify—
It is enough for him to be sure that he is making progress, although the process may be very long.
However, just when Muzan Kimuzan was planning to continue to fantasize about sunbathing on the beach in a hundred years, the long-lost tingling sensation flashed deep in his brain, making him unable to help but hold his forehead. This was a sign that a large amount of information was being conveyed.
The sun in the temple asked directly: "Who is dead again?"
"It's a nightmare dream..."
While frowning, Muzan Kimuzan gently held his temple and quickly browsed the other party's memories.
Yanmeng is just a subordinate with relatively poor abilities. If it weren't for that guy's pathological worship, Wusan would not have any interest in that guy at all.
However, after carefully browsing the information that Yan Meng sent before his death, he immediately changed this idea.
The sun in the temple looked at Wusan's expression carefully and found that he gradually transitioned from boredom and boredom at the beginning to strong curiosity. Later, he felt as if the general had won a battle.
——But in the end, a hint of suspicion surged on his face, and his emotions gradually fell back to a normal state...
"Is it a good thing?"
The sun in the temple asked tentatively.
"That's right." Kimuzan Muzan looked a little strange, "The blue red shore flower appeared."
"I thought you would be happier."
The sun in the temple was a little confused, "Isn't this something you have been looking for for a thousand years? Why is this look?"
"The red shore flower that Yan Meng witnessed withered before it even reached his hands." Muzan Kimuzan recounted the memories he saw: "But he followed the clues and encountered people from the Demon Slayer Team..."
"You mean that the blue red spider flower is in the hands of the Demon Slayer?"
The sun in the temple asked.
"Maybe it. Maybe some traitor let the people from the Demon Slayer know that I'm looking for it..."
Muzan Kimuzan was calmer than the sun in the temple as imagined, but his face gradually became a little gloomy, "But what really made me feel strange is that the little ghost named Ashina Yanichiro was actually alive!"
Click! Wusan's power was out of control due to anger, and the legs of the chair under him poked directly into the floor tiles, making a crisp sound of cracking.
"What is this guy Heihei Mu... doing?"
The seeds of doubt brewed in Kimuzan's heart, causing the air around him to start running around.
"He kept saying that he had overdone the blood into the little ghost's body.
"But now, Ashina Yanichiro is neither dead nor turned into a ghost, and is still a living human! Even the color of the knife is similar to that guy back then-"
Wusen's eyes gradually became fierce and gloomy, and murderous intent gradually began to spread around him.
He hasn't seen the kind of thing that was called "He Dao" by the Demon Slayer four hundred years ago.
But when Yan Meng was "being possessed" by Butterfly Ninja, she saw the scene of Xian Yiro using the Hidden Knife. The blade body was red and bright, and it was not much different from the Hidden Kyuichi's own Hidden Kyuichi, which was enough to pose a fatal threat to him.
The Hedao, who had been punished by Wusan, appeared at the same time as the blue red spider flower that he had long been missed, and instantly extinguished the joy he had just ignited.
People who live in fear can see threats in anything.
This is the best description of Kimuzan's condition at this time.
"This matter smells suspicious everywhere... Either it was Kurokiji who also had a second thought and deceived me with some method... Or it was Ashina Shinichiro who used some method to resolve the curse in my blood, otherwise he would not be like this."
"Mr. Heijimu, it shouldn't betray you." The sun in the temple paused slightly, "Do you need me to come to him tonight?"
“…”
After pondering for a while, Wusan suddenly waved his hand.
“No need.”
Although Xianichiro was alive, Kuroshima was suspicious, but after thinking about it carefully, he still felt that the second possibility was greater.
First of all, Hei Shi Mou is different from other ghosts. He has never made any harsh actions against him, but he is quite reliant on it. And even if he betrayed, he has the only choice Zhu Shi.
But that guy pursues pure power and dreams of creating swordsmanship that surpasses Ji Guoyuanyi. How could he cooperate with the female ghost who Ji Guoyuanyi let go?
"No matter how you think about it, the second possibility is relatively large. Even the Zhushi can make ghosts escape from my control, and Ashimi can even manipulate ghosts, and it is not impossible to solve the curse in my blood."
Muzan Kimuzan expressed his thoughts.
"At least, the Blue Ribbon is very capable of doing this. But the most likely place where the Blue Ribbon is Ashina is Ashina that ghosts have never set foot... And the deep mountain where the family members are looking for are located is likely to be the entrance to Ashina."
The clues in Wusan's mind were quickly linked together to form a theory that could make him feel self-consistent.
"If this is true, then the actual effect of the Blue Ridge Flower is really hard to say..."
The thing he found for more than a thousand years was because the medicine in the doctor's prescription that turned him into a ghost.
In order to solve the bell, Muzan Kimuzan believed that if he wanted to solve the problem of not being able to bask in the sun, he would probably need to start with this kind of flower.
But this does not mean that - he naively believed that the Blue Ribbons would definitely cure him.
If he takes the Blue Ridge Flower, he loses the power of the ghost and turns back to aging and dies of humans?
What if he was killed directly?
What if he evolved one more step toward the level of a ghost?
These are all possible outcomes.
Therefore, even if Wusan really found this flower, he would repeatedly do experiments on different ghosts until the results satisfies him.
In other words, the Blue Ridge Flower is just a possible answer to Muzan Kimuzan's need to solve the problem of not being able to bask in the sun.
But now - using the blood ghost technique of the temple's sun to gradually adapt to the sun is a practical answer. The only disadvantage is that it takes a long time, but the advantage lies in stability and reliability.
It was precisely because of this consideration that Wusan did not have much obvious reaction when he heard that Yan Meng found this flower.
If Yeniichiro's "survival" is linked to the blue red flower, then this flower may be harmful to him.
To be continued...
