It took half a night for Genichiro and Butterfly Ninja to successfully liberate five evil spirits with the "enthusiastic help" of the skinny little devil.

Among these five ghosts, only one had the blood ghost technique, which made it a little more difficult to deal with. However, under the attack of the two men, he was caught before even five minutes.

However, the butterfly ninja's poison has minimal effect on a ghost of this level.

After several experiments, Butterfly Ninja summarized some rules.

There are three ways to use wisteria flower poison on ghosts.

The first is to pour it on the ghost's skin. In just two seconds, the ghost's skin contaminated with toxins will rot and the local muscles will soften to the level of a normal person.

But unless you are an extremely skilled swordsman, it will be difficult to accurately strike the location contaminated by the poison before it evaporates.

The second method is to pour it directly into the ghost's wound.

The blood circulation speed of ghosts is more than ten times that of humans. Once excessive venom is injected into the blood, it will quickly flow through the entire body, causing it to collapse from the inside.

However, it is extremely difficult to inject venom into the ghost's blood vessels without catching it.

If you just apply poison on the knife, the amount of poison will not be enough.

Therefore, at present, this method has little practical significance.

The third method is to directly let the ghost take it orally.

If the circulatory system of ghosts is more than ten times that of humans, then their digestive system is more than a hundred times that of humans.

Let the ghost swallow the wisteria flower poison directly, and within a few seconds you will see obvious decay in the ghost's muscles and skin.

Weak ghosts will die immediately within ten seconds, while the ghosts who can do blood ghost magic will fall into a weak state that cannot cope with it.

However, ghosts only eat people.

How to make ghosts take the initiative to take poison in actual combat is the difficult part.

The above is what Butterfly Ninja gained tonight.

The three poisoning methods all have different shortcomings, and the mixed poison of wisteria and Amanita muscaria can only deal with some simple ghosts.

Therefore, the research on Butterfly Ninja can only be said to have just begun.

With Genichiro by his side, the Butterfly Ninja unknowingly accomplished what he had wanted to do for half a year but had no chance to do.

After all, when she usually goes on a mission alone, she has to kill the ghost quickly, and there is no room to capture the ghost and test the poison.

If you go on a mission with your team members, you will be discovered again if you do this, and your sister will definitely know about it later.

But Genichiro's hook rope can restrain the evil ghost, and he doesn't mind the various tortures she inflicts on the ghost. There is no risk of leaking the secret. It is simply a perfect partner.

In this way, the butterfly ninja kept talking to Genichiro about her various ideas about poisons all the way down the mountain. When passing by the path, she didn't even ask to see the situation of the three knife testers, which saved Genichiro a lot of trouble.

.

After all, Yamada is no longer there.

On the way, Genichiro excused himself to go to the toilet and summoned a famous samurai from the magic reed, asking him to take Yamada's secret back to the confectionery shop and hand it over to Sase Shinichi's care.

As for what to do specifically, the Enchanting Warrior cannot execute such complicated orders, so we can only wait for Genichiro to return.

When the two arrived at Daisuke Hirayama's cabin, it was already past four in the morning.

But the old man didn't break his promise. Not only was there dim light coming from the windows, but there was also smoke rising from the chimney on the roof.

Apparently the old man did not rest, but was cooking broth while waiting for the return of the two of them.

"Let's rest here tonight. We'll take the carriage back in the morning."

Butterfly Ninja suggested.

"Okay." Genichiro nodded, "I happen to be a little hungry too."

After the butterfly ninja knocked on the door, Daisuke Hirayama opened the door immediately without any delay. Looking at the two people who were tired of life, his eyes were filled with tears.

"You are finally back!"

The old man's expression was full of surprise and he was extremely excited.

He started watching the two people leave at eight o'clock last night, and now eight full hours have passed. Anything could happen. Therefore, he was very anxious and panicked.

Seeing that the two of them were safe and sound, I was immediately relieved.

"Come on, come in first! Come in first!"

As he spoke, he grabbed a person with one hand and pulled the two people into the house. He did not ask about anything related to ghosts, but just kept saying: "Just come back! Just come back!"

Then, he immediately opened the lid of the pot. Because it had been stewing for too long, the aroma of meat suddenly filled the room.

He gave each of them a large bowl of meat.

It is estimated that the meat cost at least one or two yen (the monthly salary of a female worker at that time was 1.7 yen), and it should be prepared for the New Year.

Now it's all left to them.

"Eat first, eat first, and then talk after you finish."

The warm hospitality was hard to deny, and coupled with a hard night's work, even Butterfly Ren, who didn't like meat very much, ate it all.

"Thank you for the hospitality." She was a little embarrassed.

"Thank you for what?" Mr. Hirayama served them another large bowl of soup. "You are so young, but you are doing a job that is a hundred times more dangerous than those useless policemen. This is all I can do."

After saying that, he looked at the two of them seriously, "How's it going? Did you find the ghost?"

Butterfly was a little hesitant, obviously not knowing how to say this.

So Genichiro simply said: "Fortunately, I did not disgrace my life."

In just four words, no specific details were explained.

If the old man and those workers knew the truth, they would inevitably go to the police to complain, and the matter would easily be brought to the powerful.

So the less they know, the better.

Butterfly Ninja glanced at him in surprise, and then said: "We have eliminated all the ghosts nearby."

"Really? That's great."

As he said that, the old man suddenly knelt down to the two of them and said, "I would like to thank you on behalf of those children!"

"Those evil entrepreneurs make them work day and night every day! How lucky they are to be able to sleep for two more hours!"

"Without that road, their lives would be hopeless!"

What he said was true.

In this era, Japanese workers were just awakening. In order to save money, many factories hired teenagers to work for more than 14 hours a day.

Cutting out the time for commuting, sleeping and eating, I have almost no free time for myself, and accidents often occur due to fatigue at work.

Workers living in factory dormitories have to smell the stinky air every day, cannot take two steps outside, and encounter hordes of gangsters for extortion and extortion.

To say that their lives are dark is an understatement.

And this trail can save workers a lot of commuting time, allowing them to escape the harsh environment at least when they rest. It is simply their road to salvation.

But even such a secret trail that can provide some comfort has been remembered by the dregs of history like knife testers.

It is evident how miserable the lives of the people at the bottom of Japan are.

The Butterfly Ninja quickly helped him up, "Please don't be like this. Killing the evil spirits is what we should do."

“It’s so great to have people like you in the world, oh oh oh oh——”

In this way, after the two of them finished eating, they comforted the old man for a while, and then they had a chance to rest.

Genichiro finally had time to explore tonight's harvest.

It's strange to say that even though the Butterfly Ninja is only a third-level member, the reputation value contributed to Genichiro is the same as that of Hanashira and the Immortal River, starting at 500.

On the contrary, the reputation value received from the Demon Slayer Squad, especially that Mingzhu, was only 200.

This made Genichiro a little unsure as to what the basis of this reputation value was.

From the day before yesterday when we met at the train station to now, Butterfly Ninja alone has contributed no less than 7,000 reputation points to him.

For a moment, Genichiro thought about joining the Demon Slayer Corps.

In addition to the reputation value, the five ghosts added 1 skill point to him, as well as a very small amount of the blood of the ghost king*5.

But these are not his biggest gains this time.

The biggest surprise today is the new book "Breath Technique Upanishad".

After opening it in my mind, there are only three sword shapes of the Breath of Water and four sword shapes of the Breath of Flowers.

These were all used repeatedly by the Butterfly Ninja during the demon-slaying process tonight, and were recorded by Genichiro who turned on his spiritual vision.

In other words, as long as Genichiro lights them up with skill points, he can immediately obtain these sword shapes as skills, and the accompanying breathing methods will also appear directly in his mind.

Unlike the Upanishads provided by the system, each sword type in the "Breathing Skill Book" only requires one skill point to unlock.

Genichiro now has a total of four skill points.

However, he thought about it carefully and decided to reserve it first so that he and Immortal River could learn how to breathe the wind.
