Sometimes, the weather is always unpredictable.
For example, the first day the weather was fine, the second day it was changed to a snowy day by the author, a civil engineer.
These past few days, Ye Xiao brought Mitsuri Kanroji to Butterfly Mansion and introduced her to his dependents.
Everyone welcomed this new companion.
And they got along well.
However, Mitsuri Kanroji and Lily Flower River Hua unexpectedly got along very well; they had many topics in common and both loved to eat.
Just like that, the two became good friends.
As for Ye Xiao, he had just transformed into wind and arrived in a forest.
The Kamado family lived in this mountain.
Ye Xiao arrived not far from the Kamado family and revealed his true form: "Phew~ This damn weather changes so suddenly."
Ye Xiao looked at the swirling snow in the sky and complained.
But complaints aside, we still have important business to attend to.
The primary task is to scare Kibutsuji Muzan while setting an anchor point, and incidentally, protect the Kamado family.
Ye Xiao remembered that the Infinite Castle seemed to be underground.
So, he needed to make the scumbag boss personally act as a guide.
Ye Xiao found a cave and walked in.
"Roar!!!"
"Slap~"
As soon as he entered, a large bear roared at Ye Xiao, but in the next second, it was put to sleep by Ye Xiao with a single slap.
Ignoring the peacefully sleeping bear.
Ye Xiao took out a Mr. Yoriichi outfit from Kamui Space and instantly changed into it.
He used his magic to slightly alter his appearance, then contained his aura, and hung a Nichirin Blade at his waist.
"Hmm, not bad."
Ye Xiao took out a mirror and was very satisfied.
He cosplayed as Kokushibo, walked out of the cave, and looked at the sky.
At this time, the snow was falling heavier and heavier, and the world was a silvery white.
He sensed the direction, then walked towards the Kamado family's home.
Rows of footprints appeared in the snow.
Not long after, Ye Xiao saw a small wooden house.
This was Kamado Tanjiro's home.
Ye Xiao slowly approached the wooden house and gently knocked on the door.
After a while, the door was opened by a woman wearing a purple ichimatsu pattern kimono over a white square-collared long dress, with a white headscarf tied on her head.
She was Kamado Aoi, Kamado Tanjiro's mother.
"Hello, I apologize for the disturbance, but the snow is too heavy, may I take shelter from the wind and snow here?"
Kamado Aoi showed a gentle smile, "Of course, please come in. The snow is so heavy outside, come in quickly and warm up."
"Thank you."
"You're welcome."
Ye Xiao followed her into the house; the warm air inside enveloped him, and besides Kamado Aoi, there were five children.
Ye Xiao smiled and nodded at them.
Then he sat down near the door.
Looking at the man in front of her, who had the same hair color as her brother and a scar on his forehead, Kamado Nezuko was slightly curious.
Then Kamado Nezuko took a kettle and poured Ye Xiao a bowl of hot water.
"There's not much at home, so have some hot water to warm your stomach."
"Thank you, a bowl of hot water is enough."
Ye Xiao took the hot water, took a small sip, and felt the warmth the hot water brought.
The other children of the Kamado family gathered around, curiously observing him.
"Uncle, are you a samurai?"
"Yes."
"Then Uncle must have been to many places, right? Can you tell us about them?"
Ye Xiao looked at the children's expectant eyes and nodded with a smile, "Of course."
The children immediately became excited, their eyes sparkling as they stared at him.
Ye Xiao also began to tell stories to the children.
Kamado Nezuko also sat quietly by the side, listening.
Kamado Aoi looked at Ye Xiao and also felt that Mr. Yoriichi was a good person, so she calmly went to prepare dinner.
After some time.
"Dinner's ready."
"Okay, Mom."
"Coming."
......
The children ran over one by one.
Ye Xiao looked at Nezuko next to him and said, "Let's go."
"Okay, Uncle Yoriichi."
Then, at the invitation of the Kamado family, Ye Xiao respectfully complied and had dinner with them.
"Thank you, Mr. Yoriichi, for your trouble."
"It's nothing, the children are all very cute."
Kamado Aoi was very happy to hear Ye Xiao praise her children.
Ye Xiao also started chatting with Mrs. Aoi.
After a while.
Ye Xiao sensed Kibutsuji Muzan.
He looked at Kamado Aoi.
"Please, madam, take the children to hide in the back room."
"Mr. Yoriichi..... I understand."
Kamado Aoi was a bit confused, but seeing Ye Xiao's serious gaze, she still took the children into the back room.
As the Kamado Aoi family entered the back room.
Ye Xiao also took his Nichirin Blade and sat on the left side of the main door, quietly waiting for Kibutsuji Muzan's arrival.
... ... ... ...
Down the mountain, a man in a suit began to walk into the mountain.
Even with heavy snow, it could not stop the man's steps.
He strolled through the snowy forest.
He was the Demon King, Kibutsuji Muzan.
The accumulated snow on the road was a bit troublesome for ordinary people, but for Kibutsuji Muzan, who was the Demon King, it was nothing.
He strolled through the mountains and forests, as if searching for something.
"Where exactly is the Blue Spider Lily!"
Kibutsuji Muzan's veins bulged on his forehead, "Useless! Useless! All of them are useless! They haven't even found a single flower in a hundred years!"
Kibutsuji Muzan roared in anger.
After a while, he calmed down.
A hundred years had passed, was he still afraid of this amount of time?
Moreover, that man had been dead for hundreds of years, so he didn't need to be too anxious.
"Naru......"
Kibutsuji Muzan wanted to ask Nakime to transfer him back to the Infinite Castle, but before he finished speaking, he seemed to sense something.
"There are actually humans living on the mountaintop?"
"Five children, two adults, I'm a bit excited now."
Kibutsuji Muzan smiled.
"Should I turn the children into demons and have them kill their parents? Or turn the parents into demons and have them kill their own children? It's a bit hard to choose."
"Decided, one adult will become a demon, one child will become a demon, let me see if the so-called family bond will retain sanity."
With that, Kibutsuji Muzan showed a perverted smile.
The thought of returning to his mind was temporarily dispelled.
He wanted to complete his so-called "experiment."
The so-called family "experiment."
Kibutsuji Muzan walked towards the mountaintop without hesitation.
Humans were just food.
And Kibutsuji Muzan was no longer interested in food, so humans, in his eyes, were upgraded from food to experimental materials.
As for the Demon Slayer Corps teammates, they were slightly higher-grade materials.
As for the Pillars, they were even higher-grade rare materials, after all, there were only a few each year.
Soon, Kibutsuji Muzan arrived outside the small wooden house.
As a "gentleman" in a suit, Kibutsuji Muzan was still very polite.
He also knocked on the door.
But the door was blown open by the wind and slowly opened.
The wind and snow blew into the house.
Kibutsuji Muzan had a playful smile on his face as he pushed the door open and entered.
