18. By Selection
The seven days passed quickly, and when the morning light on the seventh morning broke through the silence of the mountain stream, cheers rang out from all parts of the forest.
Although there is still half a day before the official selection is over, there is nothing to do with it, because ghosts will not appear during the day. As long as you survive last night, it means that the selection has ended.
This is the rule that everyone has defaulted to for hundreds of years.
The boys and girls dragged their tired bodies out of the mountains and forests and slowly gathered to the place where they had gathered for the first time.
Almost every one of them was in a mess. The clothes on their bodies were covered with mud and even blood. Many of them were still scarred and tears in their eyes. Almost everyone showed the joy of surviving the disaster.
Although... some of their companions stayed in this vast forest forever.
The reason why it is almost said is because there is another person who looks not much different from seven days ago. Not only is he tall and stands out from the crowd, but his temperament is also the best. The golden light in the morning sprinkles on him, and his whole body is as dazzling as a prince walking out of the painting.
It seemed that because he had finished taking a shower, the dark hair on his head was not completely dry. Occasionally, a drop of water slid from the ends of his hair on his cheeks, giving the natural magical and crafty face a vivid breath.
Such a picture makes everyone feel a little ashamed, except...
"Wuwuwu...Mo Fei, I finally saw you. You don't know. I thought I was going to die in this selection. Those ghosts were so terrible."
The little yellow-haired ghost howled and pounced on the young man, allowing him to break his skills in an instant, and stepped on the young man who was rushing to the ground.
"Speak well! I will tie you up and throw you to the ghosts in the woods."
My wife Shanyi stopped the sound instantly. He got up from the ground, looked at Mo Fei with grievance, and then at the red-haired fox-masked boy behind him, looking like a innocent girl looking at the unfaithful man who abandoned him.
Tanjiro's scalp was numb when the little yellow-haired looked at him, and he couldn't help but raise his hand and say hello to him: "Hello, I am Tanjiro Kaoru, please give me some advice."
"I am my wife Shan Yi, and I am the same teacher as Mo Fei." Xiao Huangmao said.
There was no intrigue between the young people, and after escaping from death, everyone's relationship was much closer than before. Except for one or two people who gathered together in groups to talk about their experiences in the past 7 days, apart from grief, everyone had a faint sense of excitement.
Because from now on, they will be part of the Demon Slayer Team.
In the final selection, the number of people who survived set a record high. In the past, five or six people were lucky to have the final selection in each session. This time there were thirteen people, which was a great harvest.
The twin sisters who appeared that day appeared again. Their dresses did not change at all, and even their expressions were exactly the same as they did that day. They didn't look like living people, but like cut paper people.
"Welcome to everyone back. First of all, congratulations to everyone. From now on, everyone will be part of the Demon Slayer Team."
With their words, the surviving boys and girls couldn't help but cheer. It was naturally an exciting thing to be able to pass the selection.
"Then what, what are we going to do next? It's not that everyone will get a Sun Wheel Knife after passing the selection. What about the knife?" A boy with a cockscomb head and a scar on the corner of his mouth spoke.
He and a girl with butterfly accessories are the two most independent people in this team. One is like a hedgehog, with a strong sense of distrust of everyone around him, and the other is like autism, silently living alone in his own world without any communication with anyone.
"Don't worry, the organization will prepare team uniforms for you first. After measuring the size, the level will be embroidered on the team uniforms. Everyone should know the level in the team. Those who have just passed the selection are the lowest-level ‘Gui’."
"Where is that knife?" It was the thorny boy just now.
"The organization will ask you to choose your favorite steel today. In about fifteen days, your sword will be completed." He said, pausing for a moment before continuing: "In addition, we will arrange your exclusive crow immediately. If you have any tasks, the organization will publish it to you through crows."
With her words, more than a dozen crows flew from the air and fell towards everyone.
but……
"Do you call this a crow? Hello, don't think I can lie if I am young. This is obviously a sparrow!" The little yellow-haired next to Mo Fei was full of incredible faces. Everyone was a crow, and when he came to him, he turned into a sparrow!
No, not everyone, above Mo Fei's head, the crow was hovering and did not dare to fall on him at all.
There was also the boy who was like a hedgehog and waved the crow that flew towards him.
"I don't care about the Breaking Crow! I want a knife, the Demon Killing Team will change color!"
This irritable boy not only has a bad temper, but also has a violent tendency. He actually grabbed the hair of one of the twins' girls.
Mo Fei frowned and kicked it out.
Bang!
He used clever force to use this kick, and the boy's hand involuntarily released, and the man was kicked to the ground, and he was not injured except for some pain.
"Hey, you little face, dare to attack me. You are really looking for death. Don't think I'm afraid of you!"
The cockscomb-headed boy immediately exploded and pulled his knife out from his waist. He watched Mo Fei grit his teeth and chopped it down regardless of the matter.
"I don't know what's wrong!"
Mo Fei snorted coldly, [Scarlet] exploded in the air, and red lightning flashed across the sky, and even the light of the morning glow was covered.
When everyone's vision recovered again, the scene in front of them completely subverted their cognition.
The knife in the cocks-comb-headed boy's hand had been broken into two pieces, and behind him, a deep ditch that was slashed out by the long sword appeared. It was ten meters long, and I don't know how many deep it was.
There is silence.
Someone swallowed unconsciously. In the situation in front of him, all of them might not be enough to slash them with one knife.
Mo Fei looked at the boy with cockscomb: "I don't care what you have experienced in the past, but no one here owe you. The knife in the hand should slash at the ghost, not your companion. If you are still so impulsive next time, it will not be the end of this now."
Others can't see it, he knew very well that these two girls who seemed to be very mature are only eleven or twelve years old now, and their bodies are not very healthy.
Two little girls, no, their names are Nayashiki Hinaki and Nayashiki Hika.
Qingyi looked at Mo Fei, her eyes no longer had the lifeless look she had before, and there seemed to be a little starlight inside: "Come here first, let's choose the steel to build your own sword. As for Mr. Mo Fei, can you stay later? My father wants to see you."
"Of course, I want to meet the owner of the Demon Slayer."
