"Onee-san, hurry up! Ryuji-senpai is urging us!" Tanjiro then also urged Makio, who was running in front of him, in reality, with Tanjiro's speed, he could still keep up with Ryuji, after all, Ryuji was still holding a person.
But in order to prevent Makio from falling behind, Tanjiro had been following behind Makio all along.
Faced with Tanjiro's urging, Makio's heart then tightened, because this was already her fastest speed, wanting to be faster, it was clear that it was impossible.
After running for a while, seeing that Makio still did not seem to be speeding up, Tanjiro then already knew that Makio had reached her limit, and so he immediately picked her up, and then said very apologetically: "I'm sorry for the offense! Onee-san!"
Makio, seeing that she was being picked up by Tanjiro, felt helpless in her heart, and could only obediently let Tanjiro carry her, she also knew that now was not the time to be stubborn and hold on.
Makio, plus Nezuko in the [Mist Cloud Cedar] wooden box, although Tanjiro seemed to be carrying one more than Ryuji, in reality, Nezuko was not very heavy.
Because Nezuko was in the form of a child of a few years old when she was shrunk in the wooden box, so she weighed at most twenty or thirty pounds, this weight would naturally not cause any burden to Tanjiro, and also Tanjiro carried Nezuko on his back almost every day, so he was naturally used to it.
Tanjiro, who had picked up Makio, quickly accelerated and ran to Ryuji's side, and then asked: "Ryuji-senpai, what's wrong?"
"Tanjiro, we are now in an unknown location, perhaps we have to rely on your nose to find Zenitsu and them faster!" Ryuji then immediately said to Tanjiro.
Although Ryuji could search very accurately through perception, Ryuji's perception range was only within a range of two hundred meters, so he could not determine the general direction.
And also now he was under a four-hundred-meter cliff, so whether Zenitsu could hear his step frequency signal was also an unknown, he was just afraid that he would run in the wrong direction, causing the two teams of people to be unable to join up.
Ryuji naturally did not know at this time that Kokushibo had intercepted Zenitsu Agatsuma and his group, so he still thought that Zenitsu Agatsuma was leading the team and chasing behind him.
Even though at the critical moment, Shinobu Kocho and Kyōjurō Rengoku's support allowed Zenitsu Agatsuma, Inosuke, and Hattori Kujyo to escape and go to support Ryuji, but this delay undoubtedly caused Zenitsu Agatsuma to lose Ryuji's trail marks.
And also Zenitsu Agatsuma was still in a coma, whether Hattori Kujyo and Inosuke could join up with Ryuji in a situation where they had lost any clues was also an unknown.
Hearing these words, Tanjiro took a breath with his nose, and carefully analyzed it.
Because it was raining heavily, the humidity in the air was very high, and the smells were very faint, so Tanjiro did not smell anything.
"Ryuji-senpai, Zenitsu and them should be on the mountain, and we are at the bottom of the mountain, the smells are not on the same horizontal line, so it is not very possible to smell their scent." Tanjiro then replied.
The emission of smells was horizontal, if Zenitsu Agatsuma was on the mountain, then it was impossible for Zenitsu Agatsuma's smell to overcome such an exaggerated height difference, and emit to the bottom of the four-hundred-meter mountain, so Tanjiro could not smell Zenitsu Agatsuma's or other people's scents.
Only when Tanjiro and the owner of the scent were both in a relatively horizontal position could Tanjiro possibly smell the scent.
Tanjiro's words made Ryuji also realize this point, so in order to find Zenitsu Agatsuma and them, he could only find the road to the cliff first.
