Chapter 26 Forging Knife Village (seeking monthly pass)
"It's amazing, Qing... Brother Kakadong, how did you do it? Even the smell has changed."
On the way to Forge Sword Village, Tanjiro talked eloquently.
【Superman’s Disguised Glasses】It’s really powerful. Even Tanjiro, who has a bug-like sense of smell, failed to discover Aomori’s disguised identity, which gave Aomori a lot of confidence in the next operation to lure ghosts.
Led by Butterfly Kanae, Aomori and Tanjiro came to Forging Sword Village in a carriage.
Those who live in the village of forging swords, no matter men, women, old or young, are good at forging sun-knife swords. They wear different masks of fire men, day and night forging sun-knife swords for the swordsmen of the ghost killing team. important stronghold.
Seeing the village chief of Forging Knife Village, Butterfly Kanae immediately expressed her intention to come.
"This is the new Lei Zhu Kakadong, I implore you to forge two sun wheel knives for him."
The village chief is short in stature, with gray hair, and an old voice came from behind the mask: "Oh, the new Lei Zhu, I haven't seen him for a long time, he looks like a great guy."
After a pause, the village chief continued: "My lord has already ordered this matter. According to the usual practice, you have to choose the right ore yourself."
The ore used to forge the sun wheel sword is called "Jade Steel", which is a kind of ore with sunlight characteristics, so the forged sun wheel knife can kill evil spirits.
Yugang sometimes has associated ore, and selecting ore is actually selecting the type of associated ore.
Aomori nodded and said, "Okay."
The village head took out all the high-quality ores in the village and asked Aomori to choose them.
Aomori has been thinking for the past few days, the most likely reason for the shattering of [Mura Hao Sword] is that he hastily forcibly combined the two powers of Thunder and Holy Light, and the repulsion between different powers made [Mura Hao Sword] Broken.
It's really too much.
Having learned his lesson, Aomori decided to separate the two powers of Thunder and Holy Light, which is why he wanted two solar knives.
One carries the power of thunder, and the other carries the power of holy light.
Then, the selected ore should best match the corresponding power.
Aomori condensed the power of thunder with one hand and the power of holy light with the other, and carefully selected among the ore piles.
It was almost dark when he picked out the ore he wanted. Butterfly Kanae had already taken Tanjiro to visit other places.
"Village Chief, just these two, please."
"No trouble, this is the first time someone has spent such a long time picking ore. It can be seen that you attach great importance to these two knives. Don't worry, we will do our best to make you satisfied." The village chief obviously liked Satisfied, Aomori kept nodding.
"Village Chief, I actually have one more request." Aomori adjusted his glasses and said.
"Just say it, Forge Knife Village will solve all your problems." The village chief slapped his chest.
"I heard that there is a very powerful 'whetstone' passed down in Forge Village, which can make swordsmen stronger."
"Huh? Did you mean 'that'?"
Aomori found Butterfly Kanae and Tanjiro in a hot spring, they were soaking in the same hot spring pool.
Although the conservative Butterfly Kanae wore a bath towel, it could not completely cover up the turbulent waves. With Aomori's eyesight, he could easily see through the fog and see the essence.
"Tanjiro, come with me, I'll show you something more interesting."
Aomori's cold voice woke up the dizzy Tanjiro, he stood up quickly with a blushing face, and said hoarsely: "Okay, Brother Aomori, I'll be right there."
Fleeing from the hot spring with a little panic and regret.
"Ah, Tanjirou is so cute." Butterfly Kanae covered her mouth and smiled coquettishly, and also walked out of the hot spring, "I want to go too."
"what ever."
Leading Butterfly Kanae and Tanjiro who were dressed, Aomori walked into the deep mountains without stopping. In the quiet night, Tanjiro couldn't figure out the direction.
"Ao...uh, Brother Kakato, why are you so proficient? Aren't we all here for the first time?" Tanjiro asked.
Butterfly Kanae obviously had the same doubts, and looked at Aomori with wide eyes.
Butterfly Kanae wanted to ask again, but was interrupted by Aomori: "Here we are, here it is."
There are two rows of wooden houses here, and Aomori went straight to one of the wooden houses and knocked on the door.
"Who is it?" A childish voice sounded, and a seven or eight-year-old child opened the door. He also wore a fire mask on his face, "Who are you?"
"We are the swordsmen of the Demon Slayer Squad, Leizhu Kakaton," Aomori pointed to Kanae Butterfly behind him, "and Kanae Butterfly Butterfly."
Butterfly Kanae nodded, she already understood Aomori's goal, the amazing thing is, how did he know the secret of Forging Sword Village? Even she, if Bei Mingyu Xingming hadn't mentioned it by accident, would not have known about it.
While speaking, Aomori clearly felt the child's body tremble.
"I haven't heard of it, I don't understand, please leave!" The child wanted to close the door, but Aomori resisted it.
"You are Xiaotie. I think you already know the purpose of my coming to you. Take out the key of the mechanism doll. I have already asked the village chief."
"I don't!" Xiao Tie said stubbornly.
Aomori stared at him for two seconds, then suddenly grabbed Tanjiro, who was confused, and pushed him in front of the child: "It's up to you, Tanjiro!"
Tanjiro: "???"
"I'll leave it to you. Coaxing children is your specialty. Nezuko and the others trust you as a big brother. Don't let them down." Aomori clenched his fist and said encouragingly.
"I...I understand." Tanjiro looked at Xiaotie full of fighting spirit.
"You... don't come here!" Xiao Tie shivered and fled back to the room in a panic.
"Hey, don't run, brother is not a bad person." Tanjiro also ran over.
Kanae Butterfly covered her mouth and looked at this scene amusedly, glanced at Aomori, stepped forward, followed Tanjiro, and joined in the persuasion.
Aomori turned around and entered another wooden house, where there are mechanism dolls that have been passed down for more than 300 years.
Aomori, who has a deputy mechanic, started research with great interest.
Half an hour later, Tanjiro and Butterfly Kanae successfully persuaded Tetsu to take out the switch key of the mechanism doll.
"Tanjiro, you promised me not to break it."
"Don't worry, Xiaotie."
"It really can't be broken. The method of making it has been lost. Once it is broken, it can't be repaired." Xiao Tie couldn't help nagging.
"Don't worry, Tetsu!" Tanjiro planted a bright flag on his back again.
Together, we went to the wooden house where the mechanism doll was hiding, but saw fragments of parts all over the place, and the three of them opened their mouths wide and turned into petrification.
"Ah, you pay me for the mechanism doll!" Xiaotie's tears gushed out like a waterfall, and after breaking out of the petrified state, he rushed over, hitting Aomori's back crazily with his small fists.
Tanjiro grabbed Xiaotie by the corner of his clothes, and said in relief: "Xiaotie, don't be impulsive, Brother Kakadong definitely didn't mean it."
"Even if it wasn't intentional, it would be too much." Butterfly Chanahui knew Xiaotie's feelings for this mechanism doll, and she was really angry.
Aomori, who was buried in the pile of parts, seemed to have just woken up from a dream. Looking at the mechanism doll that had been dismantled to pieces and only a skeleton remained, he felt a little embarrassed after a long absence. He scratched his hair and said, "Ah, I'm sorry, I've committed an occupational disease."
"What's the use of apologizing now, my mechanism doll can never be restored!" Xiao Tie wanted to pull Aomori's hair, but he put a finger on his forehead.
With a flick of his fingers, Xiaotie let out an "Ouch" and fell into Tanjiro's arms.
"Who said it can't be recovered?"
"The craftsmanship of the ancestors has been lost. My father, my grandfather, and my great-grandfather have all tried it, and there is no way to make such a mechanism doll. Do you know these things! No one in our forging knife village can do it , do you rely on you little boy?" Xiao Tie fired all his firepower.
"Ah, ah, Xiaotetsu calm down!" Tanjiro was sweating profusely.
"You swordsmen know how to destroy, how can you know how to fix it! If you can fix it, I'll eat it right in front of you..." Xiao Tie was speechless because he saw Aomori's hands dancing fast. The mechanism doll with only the frame left has flesh and blood slowly.
"Huh? I must be dreaming..."
As a mechanic, of course he knows how to repair mechanism dolls, which makes sense.
