Chapter 109 Departure

  The night was quiet.

   All are silent.

   The door of the house was gently pushed open, and in the darkness where the fingers could not be seen, the shrine maiden in white clothes and a scarlet hakama stepped out gently.

   She looked around the village, then turned around and closed the door, without making any movement. In this way, near midnight, the witch left her house and walked towards the outside of the village. Although her movements were very slight, she did not notice that when she passed a room, the little girl inside was not at all. Did not fall asleep.

  Xiaoye has been thinking about the daytime things, and he has not fallen asleep after tossing and turning.

  Although I got an answer from Kikyo-san, but the preoccupied look of my sister is something she has never seen before... It's all bad for the monk in the afternoon!

   And at this moment, she happened to see the shadow of the priestess passing by the window.

Xiao Ye was stunned for a moment, her little heart jumped up and down, and an unstoppable thought came into her mind, and then firmly occupied all her thoughts—it's so late, elder sister Kikyo is going where? Could it be... could it be that you are going to leave here?

   The little girl couldn't lie down any longer, and immediately got up, without awakening her parents and younger brother who were sleeping soundly on the mat, she walked to the door and glanced outside through the crack of the door.

She found that it was not that she was wrong, but that the witch sister was indeed walking towards the outside of the village, and that slender figure was slowly walking across the fields, walking further and further away, gradually disappearing into the dark night. .

   gritted her teeth, she quietly opened the door, and crept into the night.

  …

  The night was silent, pitch black as ink.

  Under this night, Kikyo quietly walked on the path in the field with a calm look.

   It's just that she didn't notice the little tail that was following far behind her. From this incident, she could see that her heart was not as calm as she appeared on the surface, and she didn't know what she was thinking. Otherwise, it's hard to imagine that her perception would be so dull that she wouldn't even notice a little girl's stalking.

   Leaving the village like this, walking into the woods in the dark night, and not long after she came to an empty river bank. The shrine maiden who stopped walking casually looked around and felt that there were trees covering the place, so even if there was any change, the village should not be affected.

   She listened to the murmur of the river beside her, her expression was calm and comfortable, and she raised a hand gently towards the sky.

   The white robe of the shrine maiden had wide and long sleeves, and she slid down along with her movements, revealing her white jade-like forearms. At this very moment, some faint mottled light spots appeared in the night sky, echoing her movements.

   They are like fireflies flying in the summer night, appearing in the sky, and they come straight to the river bank with a clear goal.

After approaching quickly, you can see that there are five or six objects with slender and graceful bodies, like smart snakes, with delicate and small flying wings growing on their heads, each of which firmly grasps one and emits a soft light. It seems that the outline of the illusory light group is flying towards this side.

   On the bank of the river, the moon is bright.

   These agile "flying snakes" came to the Miko's side, circled around her several times, and cast the light ball they caught, which was caught by the Miko.

Kikyo's soul has long been reincarnated, and now it has become another person. At the time of resurrection, it was the hag Li Tao who burned her body with her spiritual bones and tomb soil, and used magic to extract the reincarnated soul to bring it back to life. , but in the ensuing battle, the soul was taken back by Kagome.

  The shrine maiden who fell short can only leave with the resentment of her life, but the incompleteness of her soul cannot last forever. She needs to collect the dead soul of the girl to fill her body before she can act.

   However, the dead souls will eventually ascend to heaven, and it is impossible for her to keep them bound in her hands, so after a short period of time, she will collect new dead souls...

"The poor souls of young girls, come to me." Muttering to herself, the priestess carefully caught the light **** with a very gentle movement. Since they are the dead souls of young girls, it means that they are all still alive. A girl who died very young is indeed a pitiful fate.

   Of course, I don't have the right to pity them either... Kikyo didn't know what he was thinking of, and a self-deprecating smile appeared on his calm face.

   shook her head gently, she looked at the gradually scattered dead soul worms, frowned slightly, one of the dead soul worms did not come back, what happened?

   And at this time—

   "Mikoto girl, are you... dying?"

   A sudden hoarse voice appeared in the woods behind, Kikyo sighed lightly, she could tell that it was the wandering mage who came to preach to her this afternoon.

   The other party didn't give up. In the afternoon, he was obviously kicked out of the village. I don't know how many angry villagers threatened to kill him. But now, they are still looking for him, and this determination can be said to be quite firm... Maybe I have never left the village at all, and I have been waiting for the opportunity.

   But his heart is not calm, he didn't even notice it...

  Thinking like this, Kikyo looked straight ahead, and saw the wide and peaceful river surface glistening in the bright moonlight.

   She didn't look back, but said softly, "Master, can you please let me go?"

"Are you dead? Forgive me, I can't pretend that I didn't see it!" The voice of the old monk Qinghai became very serious. He had already speculated during the day. Now that he saw the scene of the dead soul worm collecting dead souls, it was even more serious. Convinced of this, the momentum exuding from his body became obvious, and it seemed that he was about to start.

   frowned, Kikyo felt an unspeakable annoyance in her heart, she turned around and was about to continue to say something, but after seeing the old monk's appearance, she couldn't help but be stunned.

The old monk on the opposite side stood there solemnly, and behind him were the young monks, but compared to the daytime, they were too embarrassed now, their monk clothes were torn to tatters, not to mention that even if they tried their best to tidy them up, they still remained. There are many places broken and turned into pieces of rags.

   The young monk had several bruises on his face, the old monk also had one eye rim that turned black and black, and there was a piece of cloth stuck in his nose, which seemed to be used to stop the bleeding…

Even at this moment, he looks righteous and solemn, holding the magic weapon in his hand, standing there, the aura of mana fluctuates strongly, showing uprightness, hatred and hatred, it can't change this. The embarrassing shape...even formed an extremely sharp contrast.

   Although the shrine maiden did not laugh, she was obviously stunned for a moment, and the expression on her face suddenly became very strange.

   There are flaws!

   This is the moment!

   The light in his eyes burst, and the old monk shouted loudly, and suddenly raised his hand and clenched the magic weapon in his hand. It was a spherical object engraved with a dragon-shaped pattern, like a dragon wrapped around a jewel. Accompanied by the infusion of mana, the instrument burst into dazzling light.

   From the overflowing rays of light, a dragon-shaped figure roared and threw out, and it quickly grew when it saw the wind, turning into a silhouette several feet long!

Although it was summoned in the appearance of a dragon, the summoned object used the same method as a giant python strangling its prey. The huge dragon-shaped shadow suddenly wrapped around the shrine maiden who was caught off guard on the opposite side. A slender and graceful slender neck!

   "Rest now! Miko!"

   The old monk shouted loudly. He felt the severe consumption of his own mana, and he jumped up in fear. The terrifying level of the witch on the opposite side was far beyond his imagination! However, he did not intend to retreat, but instead increased the infusion of mana with a ruthless heart.

   "You can't escape the soul-binding technique! Just ascend to heaven! Don't miss the world anymore, I'm saving your soul!"

   He shouted so loudly, hoping that his words would have some effect, even if it was just a little bit, as long as the witch listened a little bit, his mind would be shaken, and he would no longer resist so much.

However…

The effect of    is indeed there, but it is a reaction.

  Reacted, Kikyo's eyes suddenly became cold, and even the tone was a rare trace of obvious anger: "Save me? - It's just you?!"

   "Master, look here!"

   Two voices sounded at the same time, overlapping at this moment.

   At this moment, the old monk heard the sound of wind resounding in his ears, and his eyes widened in amazement. Just as he turned his head, he saw a fist enlarge sharply in his field of vision!

   On the other side, the shrine maiden waved her sleeves vigorously, and the huge dragon that was tightly wrapped around her body was instantly propped up by the terrifying huge spiritual power! And that's not all, even under the impact of the huge spiritual power, the entire body of the dragon was split inch by inch on the spot, as if it had been dismembered!

   It was not the glowing pieces of flesh and blood that were lasing away in all directions, and it seemed like a rain of pieces had fallen by the river!

"what!"

The old monk screamed in pain, his whole body flew out, fell heavily on the ground, and the magic weapon in his hand flew out. A few pieces... Naturally, it's not that the quality is bad, but the magic dragon is directly shattered by the spiritual power of the witch, causing the backlash.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah…"

   Seeing that the old monk was defeated neatly and neatly, the young monk at the back was frightened, screamed, turned and rushed into the woods, but no one stopped him.

"you you…"

  The old monk felt extremely distressed, and immediately looked at the magic weapon he had taken away, but he did not know that he had escaped. With both eyes turning black and blue, he raised his head on the ground and looked at the half-demon young man who appeared out of nowhere in anger.

   This is the result of Gu Mo's failure to do his best, otherwise—

   An old monk with an ordinary physique is still so old, his 15 points of strength is really enough to punch someone to death, and his head will blossom directly.

   "Master why bother, I thought you had learned enough lessons during the day..."

Gu Mopi said without a smile, he didn't look back at the witch behind him, but he could still feel the icy low pressure emanating from Kikyo at the moment: "I wasn't stabbed to death by the villagers with a dung fork in the afternoon, so I was able to run out. It's already very good, why do you want to think about it so much?"

"You...you..." The old monk was angry and anxious, but he couldn't breathe because of the old punch just now. He lay on the ground on all fours, panting for a long time, and then he looked up unwillingly. To that shrine maiden who looked coldly and stared at him indifferently.

   "I don't know...but, but, you can't pretend that you haven't seen it, and what exactly do you want to do when you stay in this world?"

   "The living are qualified to continue to create the future, but the time of the dead has stopped, there is no future..."

The old monk does not seem to be afraid of the fate that he may encounter next. Even at this time, he is still saying this with a heartache. He is not afraid of his failure and the fate of being killed. This dead man is pitiful.

  “…”

  “…”

   There was a brief silence in the air.

   Kikyo looked at this embarrassed old monk coldly. Under the white moonlight, his temperament seemed to have become cooler. But in the end, she didn't do anything, and she couldn't hear any emotion in her tone, just as calm and flat as usual—

   "You go, don't appear in front of my eyes again."

She was indeed extremely angry just now, but even in the original trajectory of fate, the death of the old monk was just an accidental injury, the mana was bounced back, and the sharp claws of the broken mana dragon penetrated her throat, and she died when she was bounced back. And back under the spell.

   So now that he has calmed down, it is naturally even more impossible to do it.

   "You..." The old monk raised his head in amazement. After realizing what he heard, he opened his mouth again as if he wanted to say something.

   "Give it up, Master."

Gu Mo leaned on a tree over there, lowered his head and picked up his nails, and said calmly and casually: "If a few simple words can resolve obsessions, then obsessions will not It's obsession, you obviously can't do anything...why don't you understand?"

   Principles cannot resolve obsessions, and force is far from an opponent. What else can the old monk do?

   is indeed a good man and a virtuous monk, but there's really no need to smash yourself to death on this steel plate...

   "This world is so chaotic, Master, why don't you save your usefulness and save others?" He stared at Master Qinghai and said this very bluntly.

   His face suddenly turned gray and slumped. The old monk's lips moved a few times. In the end, he didn't say anything, but heaved a long sigh.

This old monk got up from the ground in a very embarrassed manner, patted the dust on his body, wiped the blood on his face, and then silently picked up the dragon bead-shaped magic weapon that was broken into several pieces on the ground, and looked at the opposite side again. The two of them seemed to have lost all their heart and energy at once, their hunched bodies turned around and slowly left.

  “…”

  “…”

   The air became quiet and silent again.

   Gu Mo turned his head and looked at the cold-looking witch, and found that perhaps because of the explosion of spiritual power just now, her long hair had fallen down, and Shui Yin didn't know where it went.

   In the bright moonlight, the black waist-length hair with great texture seemed to be radiating light.

   Seeing that Kikyo didn't move for a long time, he hesitated for a while, then he coughed slightly, turning the witch's attention slightly, and then pointed his finger to a certain direction on the other side of the woods.

   Kikyo with a calm face looked in the direction he instructed, and then the cold and calm look on her face disappeared, replaced by complete surprise—

   "Xiao, Xiaoye? How could you..."

Behind a big tree, the dazed little girl realized that she was exposed at this time, and her face immediately showed a look of fear. When the witch called out her name, she took a step back in subconscious horror. .

   After all, she was a child, and the scenes that just happened were beyond her imagination.

   And she had never seen such a terrible witch sister-

  's expression was so cold, and it felt so oppressive, which was completely different from the gentleness and kindness in the past, making her feel unusually unfamiliar.

  “…”

  “…”

   Seeing the little girl's instinctively scared expression and backing action, Kikyo's expression suddenly turned a little dim, and the steps she wanted to walk over subconsciously stopped.

   "I'm sorry, I scared you..." She said softly, her tone full of apology.

   After a pause, the Miko didn't seem to know what to say.

   She was silent for a while, and then looked at the ground not far away, there were a few very tiny pieces of magic weapon lying there quietly, and the old monk was not able to take them all away. What just happened, and what the old monk said, also seemed to resurface in front of her eyes.

   She lowered her eyes slightly and said calmly, "Let's go."

  …

  …

  The long nightclub has passed, and the sun will always rise.

Among the unknown barren mountains and ridges, also on a rocky beach near the river, a square picnic cloth with a printed pattern is spread out on a flat open space, and several people are sitting on it and eating. , In the center of the picnic cloth are all kinds of ready-to-eat snacks, such as French fries, and bottles of mineral water.

   looks out of place for the era, and there’s even a women’s bike parked next to it.

Wearing a sailor suit and a dark blue pleated skirt, the girl standing beside the bicycle looked at Inuyasha and Maitreya who were still sitting on the picnic cloth, and couldn't help shouting, "Hey! Don't sit still. Come on, let's go quickly after we've finished eating, we have to hurry up and save the dead souls of those girls!"

"Where can I help you..." Inuyasha hugged his tattered and rusted demon sword, and looked at Kagome Higoku in annoyance, "I chased after him all night last night, and those monsters disappeared all of a sudden. ...and this matter won't do us any good, and we won't get the fragments of the Four Soul Jade."

   "Hey! Are you afraid of trouble?"

  Sunset Kagome's eyes widened, this person is here again, and he wants fragments of the Four Soul Jade. If there are no fragments, he doesn't want to do things.

   "We've already chased them here. At least we know where the monsters are heading. It's better to keep looking for them, maybe it's around here..."

   The girl from five hundred years later was unwilling to give up. She stood there full of energy and looked around, looking for a direction that might be demonic. Last night, the group of them stayed overnight in a town. The big family in the town took them in and asked them to kill the demons.

  Because it was said that a monster appeared recently that would take away the soul of a dead girl, and the daughter of that family just died at a young age, so I wanted to ask them to take action.

   When they were waiting until late at night, they did see a monster who came to collect the souls of the dead. It seemed to be a very weak and weak monster, and was directly killed by Inuyasha.

  I thought this was the end of the matter, but I didn't think there was more than one, there were more outside, flying through the sky with the light of the dead... As a result, they chased all night and got here all the way.

   "Huh? There are people ahead, how about we ask them?"

   Higurashi Kagome, who was looking around, suddenly lit up and stretched out her finger to point forward.

   Everyone looked around and found that from the end of the winding road along the river bank there, two figures appeared, which seemed to be two wandering monks. The young monk supported the old monk, and was walking towards this side in a hurry.
