Chapter 55: The Village

"That's the most excesses he's ever done!" Hongxiu was a little hysterical, it was clear that she had been patient with the fox for a long time. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"The mountain spirit was originally your fault, he just wants his master to have a long memory, if your life is really in danger, I believe he will not be able to die without help. Jiulan Xun said leisurely, but although he said so, he still had reservations about this kind of practice.

After all, in the mountain spirit incident, Hongxiu needs to bear the main responsibility, even if she is seriously injured, she is self-inflicted, but as Shikami, when the master is hit hard, she can be indifferent, which cannot be forgiven in any way, after all, Shikjin's most basic mission is to protect the safety of the master, which is undoubtedly not done by the Lixi.

"I just want to have a stronger Shikigami to protect me, because then I can break the contract with the Fox without hesitation! He doesn't want to see me, and I don't want to see him!" Hongxiu said with an unusually determined expression.

"Could it be that all along, it's for this reason that you want to subdue those monsters who are much stronger than yourself as Shikigami?" Jiulan Kaoru looked at Hongxiu with some surprise, because in his opinion, Hongxiu's insistence on subduing those monsters was entirely because of her indiscretion and arrogance, but he didn't expect it to be because of such a reason.

"Well, if you want to subdue that youkai, I can help as long as it's within my power. Jiulan Xun sighed and said slowly.

"Really?!Are you willing to help me?!" Hongxiu immediately wiped her tears when she heard that Jiulan Kaoru was willing to help, and looked at him with amazement.

"However, if that youkai is really bad, I don't recommend that you adopt it as a Shikigami either. Jiulan Kaoru added, and Hongxiu agreed without hesitation, because she also knew that even if a monster that was too bad reluctantly became her own god, she was afraid that it would be difficult for her to guarantee that such a monster would cause any trouble.

After Hongxiu's mood completely returned to normal, Jiulan Kaoru took her and continued to walk towards the place on the power of attorney, the suburbs of Kyoto are much quieter than the city of Kyoto, and compared to the bustling and lively Kyoto City, Jiulan Kaoru prefers the tranquility of the suburbs of Kyoto.

The two walked along the trail, the road was lined with green rice fields, the farther away from Kyoto City, the fewer people on the trail, after walking for half an hour, Hongxiu took out the commission and looked at it with a frown for a long time.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Hongxiu looking at the map on the power of attorney intently, Jiulan Kaoru also walked to her side and looked at it.

"It's very close on the map!Why have we all been walking for so long, and we haven't arrived yet?" Hongxiu pouted and looked at Jiu Lan Xun, and at this time, she realized that Jiu Lan Xun was so close to herself! her heart beat suddenly, and her face flushed.

"Do you really know the map, it's completely two directions!" After looking at the map, Jiulan Kaoru felt bad, because the place marked on the map was exactly the opposite direction to the place where they were now, that is, from the beginning, they had gone wrong!

"Ahh

“…… Why would I let you look at the map......" Jiulan Kaoru held his forehead with one hand and muttered to himself very depressedly.

"That, it's okay, let's go by car, and we'll be there soon!" Hongxiu said embarrassedly, and then summoned his own Shikami, Jiulan Kaoru sighed heavily and got into the car, and then Hongxiu also got into the car with a red face, and the reincarnation road rushed in the direction that Jiulan Xun pointed to.

It didn't take much time for the Reincarnation Dao to take the two to their destination, and after recalling the Reincarnation Dao, Hongxiu's face still had a touch of blush, "Why is your face so red, isn't it just going in the wrong direction, it's okay." Seeing Hongxiu's flushed face, Jiulan Xun smiled and comforted, Hongxiu's blush was simply because of the close contact with him on the ox cart! Of course, Hongxiu would definitely not fail to admit himself at this point.

"Is this the place?" Hongxiu asked, looking at her surroundings.

"Well, yes, look over there. Jiulan Kaoru pointed to the village not far away, which was the one mentioned on the power of attorney.

"But it doesn't seem like there's any demonic spirit here. Hongxiu looked around again and said with some confusion.

In this regard, Jiulan Xun also slowly frowned, as Hongxiu said, there is no demonic energy here, and it even looks full of vitality, it is not at all the description in the power of attorney "The people were mutilated by monsters." ”

The farmland on both sides is rising happily, and people can be seen plowing in the farmland from time to time, and when they approach the entrance of the village, a few noisy children run past Jiulan Kaoru and Hongxiu, and everything that catches their eyes is just an ordinary village, and it is impossible to associate it with youkai in any way.

"We're really not in the wrong place, right?" Hongxiu stood at the entrance of the village, looking at Jiulan Kaoru beside him, who also looked puzzled.

"You can't go wrong here, unless there's something wrong with the map, but that's not likely, let's go in and see. Jiulan Xun put away the power of attorney in his hand and walked into the village with Hongxiu.

It's not a big village, or rather, it's not a village, but there are more than a dozen mud houses with straw roofs and farm tools scattered around them.

"Kaoru, look there. Hongxiu pointed to a wooden house not far away, yes, this is the only room here that is different from the others, so it is especially conspicuous in this area of mud houses.

"Let's go and ask. Jiulan Xun frowned slightly, and then the two of them walked towards the wooden house.

"Are you here to find Sister Xiaocao?" Before she reached the door of the wooden house, a little girl about seven or eight years old grabbed Hongxiu's sleeve and asked with curiosity on her face.

"Sister Xiaocao?" Hongxiu asked with some curiosity, and then looked at Jiulan Xun beside her.

"Little sister, does the little grass sister you call live here?" asked Jiulan Xun as she bowed down with a smile.

"Well, Sister Xiaocao is amazing, there is no disease that she can't cure! Which of you is sick?" the little girl blinked and looked at the two of them innocently.

"The monster mentioned in the commission can't be that little grass sister, right?" Hongxiu turned her head and looked at Jiulan Kaoru with a slight frown.

"Who are you?!" a somewhat weak but wary voice asked, and before Kaoru could answer, the little girl was dragged by someone. (To be continued.) )
