From Demon Slayer, the sword is invincible

Chapter 204: Medicine in the Butterfly House

Demon Slayer Corps Butterfly House, Sanatorium.

"Five times? Five times? In one day?"

"You have to take this medicine for three months straight!!! Nooooooooooooooo…"

"This medicine is so bitter. How can I eat after taking so much medicine? Are you sure that the medicine can detoxify me?... I can't stand it anymore. I want to be discharged from the hospital!!!"

Zenitsu cried and shouted, his heart shattered as he looked at the large basin of medicine in front of him.

"Please be quiet. You'll disturb other people!" Kanzaki Aoi said angrily.

"Can someone come and explain it to me? I can just drink less once, I really can't stand it!" Zenitsu begged.

Seeing this, Kanzaki Aoi strode out angrily.

"Zenitsu-kun, you're causing trouble for others. If you pinch your nose while taking the medicine, it won't taste bitter!" Tanjiro, who was in the next bed, comforted him. After coming out of the trial, he was brought here by the members of the Hidden Clan to recuperate from his injuries.

"Huff, huff, huff..." The person sleeping soundly in the bed next to Tanjiro was Inosuke.

"It's so noisy!" Xuan Mi couldn't stand the snoring of the wild boar boy next to him, so he picked up his pillow and covered Inosuke's head with it.

"It's finally quiet now. And, you yellow-haired boy, if you keep making trouble I will sew your mouth shut. It's not like I'm asking you to eat shit, is it that difficult?" Xuan Mi looked down on Zenitsu.

"You, you don't know, that medicine... is so bitter that it's hard to describe!" Zenitsu tried hard to argue for himself.

"This will suffocate Inosuke to death!" Tanjiro took away the pillow and handed it to Xuanya, saying, "It's rare for him to have such a good sleep, let him sleep!"

"I need to rest too! How can I rest well with him like this!" Xuan Mi was very dissatisfied, but he did not cover the pillow again. The battle on Spider Mountain made him recognize these people as his companions.

"Just bear with it and recover quickly. I can't wait to train. After seeing the fighting power of the pillar-level, my whole body wants to become stronger!"

"By the way, have you seen Murata-senpai who came with us!!" Zenitsu suddenly asked.

Before Tanjiro and Xuanya could answer, a voice came.

"I'm here!!" Murata said from the bed in the opposite corner.

"Ah, Murata-senpai is awake. I thought you were discharged from the hospital?" Zenitsu said.

"I've been poisoned just like you and I have to stay here for a while. How are your injuries?" Murata asked with concern.

"It's nothing serious, it's just that Zenitsu doesn't want to take bitter medicine." Tanjiro said with an embarrassed smile, probably feeling a little embarrassed that his teammate was afraid of taking medicine.

"The medicine here is indeed bitter. Fortunately, it is not the medicine made by Master Chongchi, otherwise..." Murata said seriously.

"You see, I knew it, it's not that I can't take the medicine, it's this medicine..." Zenitsu shouted excitedly because he found a partner.

"Ah? Is it really that bitter, Murata-senpai? Lord Moshichi again..." Tanjiro was surprised that even Murata felt it was bitter.

"That's not ordinary suffering. Anyone in the action team who has been to a sanatorium knows that ordinary medicine is not so bad, but the medicine for worm-eaten adults is even more terrible than hell. It's not only bitter but also disgusting..."

Murata talked endlessly about the medicine in the sanatorium, fearing that the few people did not understand the taste of it.

"I, I shouldn't need to take medicine!!" Murata's words made Xuan Mi feel a little scared.

"Oh, don't worry, everything will be available. I have never seen an injured person who came here without taking medicine. It's just a matter of sooner or later!!" Murata said confidently, making the others even more worried.

"Tanjiro, how about... how about we escape back to the team overnight!" Zenitsu suggested cautiously.

"That's not good. Although the medicine is bitter, it can quickly restore the body. Besides, aren't you afraid of dying from the poison if you run back like this?"

"But, but... I really don't want to take the medicine!" The more Zenitsu thought about it, the more terrifying it became.

"Zenitsu, Tanjiro is right. Finish the medicine as soon as possible so that you can recover and be discharged from the hospital. Although the medicine here is bitter, it is very useful!" Murata also spoke up to persuade.

"Murata-senpai, can you teach me how you managed to endure that number?" Zenitsu turned to Murata with a pleading look, hoping that there was some special way to help himself.

Murata spread his hands and said helplessly: "I have no choice, but I think positively. We are lucky not to die in the mission. It doesn't matter if the medicine is bitter. It's better than sacrificing ourselves. We are lucky to be here!"

When Zenitsu heard Murata's words, his face turned very ugly. He thought for a while with a bitter face, and suddenly his eyes lit up.

"Murata-senpai, you said that we should hold the medicine in our mouths and not swallow it, and then spit it out when the doctor examines us. Isn't that okay?" Zenitsu said proudly.

Tanjiro shook his head, "No, Zenitsu, the doctor will check if we drank the medicine."

"Then wait until everyone is asleep at night and pour it out secretly!" Zenitsu came up with another idea.

"Zenitsu, you are deceiving the doctor, and if you are found out, you will be punished more severely." Tanjiro said seriously, "Let's just be obedient and drink the medicine."

Zenitsu looked reluctant, but he knew there was no better way. He sighed, "Well, I can only accept my fate... Just let me die from this medicine!"

"What are you talking about?"

Just then, Feng Xiaodao came in with Terauchi Qing and the two little ones and asked.

"Master Daozhu! Mr. Xiaodao..."

When they saw that the person coming was Feng Xiaodao, they hurriedly stood up and saluted. Xuan Mi even kicked Inosuke who was sleeping soundly.

"No, no, you are all patients, just stay here honestly. I just come here to check on you as a routine. After all, you are all the heroes of my action team!!" Feng Xiaodao said.

Although Feng Xiaodao's words were just simple, the irresistible aura in them made the few people stop what they were doing, and they lay on the bed thanking Feng Xiaodao for his concern.

"Mr. Xiaodao, I haven't thanked you for helping me at the trial meeting yet. I really don't know how to express my gratitude..." Tanjiro said sincerely.

"No need. You are a member of my action team. Of course I have to stand up for you. And not just me, but also your teacher and senior brother..."

Feng Xiaodao also talked about the guarantee of Xin and Yiyong.

Tanjiro was extremely shocked after hearing this. He never thought that his teacher and senior would care about him so much and even be willing to risk their lives for him. Tears began to well up in his eyes.

"Ah? Tanjiro is actually undergoing energy trial? Tanjiro, why didn't you tell me such an important thing..." Zenitsu asked in surprise. He didn't expect that Tanjiro had experienced such a thing.

Xuan Mi was also surprised that Tanjiro was actually put on trial. If it weren't for the sword pillar Feng Xiaodao coming over, and if the trial hadn't passed, he wouldn't have known when Tanjiro would leave.

Tanjiro just smiled foolishly without any explanation, looking extremely relaxed, not caring about the trial at all.

"Don't think about how to thank them. The best way to thank them is to work hard to become stronger!" Feng Xiaodao encouraged Tanjiro.

"Yeah!" Tanjiro nodded firmly.

"Lord Wormwood, he just doesn't want to take medicine!"

The sound of footsteps accompanied by a clear female voice was heard, and Aoi Kanzaki and Shinobu Kocho appeared in the ward.
