Chapter IV

There was a very ominous demonic aura that permeated from the well behind the shrine, and Sojo Jona tensed her nerves and slowly approached the well.

No matter what would come out of the well in the next second, she was ready.

Sure enough, when she approached the mouth of the well, a joint monster with a body like a snake suddenly rushed out of it, although she had already been mentally prepared Jona was still slightly startled, but her stand-in had already reacted and beat the bone snake that pounced on her.

"Oooo

Unlike those who also had stand-ins that were so difficult, such a monster only needed to attack directly head-on, but the frightened Kujo Jona kept fighting for nearly a minute, and when it stopped, the bone snake had already turned into pieces and scattered all over the ground.

What the hell is this! Are there other than ghosts?!

Jona looked at the corpses of youkai scattered all over the ground in amazement, unable to understand why such a thing appeared in the shrine. The creepy demonic aura gradually faded, and Kujo Jona did not let her guard down, and cautiously looked into the well, and found that it was a dry well that was not very deep.

And there was a faint glowing piece in the well.

"Something seems to be in there." The Daughter of Mori Green said out loud that Jona's stand-in was usually a bit reticent, but occasionally chatted with her. I don't know why, when talking to her stand-in, Jona always feels a little schizophrenic.

"Go down and see what's going on." Jona nodded at the Mori Green Daughter, and then led her into the well.

However, after the Mori Green Daughter sneaks into the well, Jona Kujo suddenly can't sense the stand-in, and the Mori Green Daughter seems to have disappeared out of thin air, and she can't call her out again.

Qiao Na frowned slightly, there is a rope ladder in this well, which means that someone usually goes down, is there any secret passage inside?

I didn't want to go down, but the stand-in was gone, and I couldn't leave. Jona hesitated, but climbed down the rope ladder.

She was a little disappointed when she reached the bottom of the well, which was a solid field, surrounded by dead stone walls, and it was impossible for the Mori Green Daughter to run anywhere else.

And the splinters of glitter that I saw earlier are gone. The bottom of this well was swishing, and Jona didn't want to stay longer, so she could only go out first. However, when she climbed back out of the well along the rope ladder, she was stunned by what she saw.

The previous shrine is gone, and there is a barren meadow around it, and there is not a single figure in sight!

But luckily, her stand-in Mori Green Daughter was on the edge of the well, and when she found out that Jona was coming, the Mori Green Daughter turned around and handed her a shiny shard.

"I picked this up and came out of the well and appeared in this place."

"What is this?"

Jona frowned and stared at the glowing fragment in her hand, not knowing if it was an illusion, but from the fragment she seemed to be able to feel a special power.

The Mori Green Daughter shook her head, unable to figure out what the debris was for a moment, so Jona slipped it back into her pocket and looked around in amazement.

It felt like coming out of the well again was like being in another world. Jona marked the plants with the Daughter of the Forest Green as she walked down the hill, and after walking for nearly ten minutes, she found a village with a particularly strong period style at the bottom of the mountain.

That's right...... It's the kind of village that has only been seen in Dahe dramas, and the villagers are all dressed as peasants of that era.

Jona Kujo pinched herself to make sure she wasn't hallucinating.

Could it be time travel?!

For a while, she could only think of this possibility, what should she do? Would you like to ask? But if you are still wearing the school uniform, will you be regarded as a monster by these locals?

However, the villagers were stunned when they noticed her, and suddenly greeted her in a friendly manner, "Phew! Are you from Kagome's time? ”

"Huh?" Jona was stunned by the other party's attitude, they didn't seem to be surprised by her being out of place here, and seemed to be used to it.

As if aware of her doubts, the villagers kindly explained to her, "Did you accidentally come from that well?" Don't worry, just let her take you back when Kagome returns! ”

"Huh? Oh......" Jona Kujo scratched her head, then put away her stand-in and walked over to the villagers.

I learned from an old shrine maiden named Granny Kaede that this was supposed to be Japan during the Warring States period.

The reason why Jona came back here is mostly due to the bone-eating well in the back mountain, and there is a girl named Kagome who often travels back and forth between modern and ancient times through the well, and in this era there are countless yokai in the world, and Kagome has become a witch who has exorcised demons, and together with a half-demon named Inuyasha, she is helping people destroy youkai.

These things made Jona listen to it in amazement, even more surprised than when she found the stand-in, as if she had been opened to a new world.

"And when will Kagome be back?" Jona Kujo asked curiously, she wanted to meet Kagome, that was a talent, Kagome must be able to find a way to make her stop seeing those demons and monsters.

"There is no accurate number for this, she went to find the Jade of the Four Souls with Inuyasha." Granny Kaede pondered, "If you want to find Kagome, you can stay here and wait for her." ”

"Thank you for your generosity." Jona Kujo thanked Granny Kaede, she could have come to find people through guò plants, trees and grass were conscious, and her stand-in could communicate with plants, but Jona didn't know what Kagome looked like, so she had to give up.

"Nothing...... But don't run around, out of this village, there will be a lot of man-eating monsters outside. ”

"Thanks for the reminder." Jona nodded, but she thought maybe she could visit the era. I've watched a modern doctor travel back to the past before, but she didn't expect it to happen to her in reality, she was too curious about how people lived in ancient times.

Jona didn't accept Granny Kaede's advice, she marked the plants here, she could find her way back wherever she went, and her stand-in was able to control the growth of the plants and didn't worry about food shortages. So after asking about the situation, she decided to go to the larger castle and remember the interesting legends of ancient Japan, and the yokai seemed to be less terrifying.

However, Jona still underestimated the distance without transportation, and after she left the village, there was a mountain forest road, and after a short walk, the night gradually darkened. I knew that I would have set off by carriage during the day.

Although the moon has risen, it is a bit dangerous to continue walking on the mountain trail at night.

Jona considered whether to wait until dawn before setting off, and at this moment, she felt a very powerful demonic aura appear in the distance in front of her, and slowly approached this way.

Is it a youkai again?

Jona immediately took precautions and called out a stand-in, and if the thing came close to her, she would definitely launch a preemptive attack at the first opportunity.

However, what Kujo Jona herself didn't expect was that when the youkai that gave her a strong sense of oppression appeared in her sight, she was surprised and forgot to attack.

It was an almost beautiful man, dressed in fine armor and with a cloud of plush on his shoulders. His long silver hair glowed white in the moonlight, a crescent-shaped mark on his forehead, and a grim expression on his delicate face, unlike any youkai he had seen before, he walked unhurriedly, except for the pointed ears that showed that he was not human.

Jona just stared at the monster, but the monster didn't even bother to look at her, so he walked straight past Jona.

"......" Something flickered slightly in Jona's eyes, and she kept staring at the back of the monster and walked away, completely disappearing from view, and finally came back to her senses.

…… What was it just now?

…………

The next night, Yoshiyoshi Asakura was sitting on the sofa at Kujo's house watching TV, when Jona Kujo, who had been missing all day, returned.

He didn't care about the girl's appearance or disappearance, but he smiled and greeted her, "Yo, I'm back." ”

"Hmm......" Jona replied in a trance, noticing that the other party was a little absent-minded, and Asakura asked with a casual smile, "Did something happen?" ”

"Nothing." Joanna shook her head and said with emotion, "Youkai are really good......"
