Chapter 246: Kaede's Thanksgiving
And just when Shang Yang was depressed that he couldn't explore the power of the Bone-Eating Well and the Imperial Divine Wood now, Shang Yang didn't notice it, and also watched the bones of the hundred-legged demon woman fall into the Bone-Eating Well, Kikyo looked at him quietly, and there was a trace of relief in his clear watery eyes.
And at this moment, Shang Yang, who was still a little sleepy, moved his arms, half-opened his eyes, and said casually to the bellflower without much energy.
"Then, if it's okay, I'll go back to the shrine first, maybe I didn't sleep well last night, I'll go back and make up for a nap first."
"Hmm."
In the afternoon, Kaede no Village Shrine.
Lying in front of the statue to make up for a nap, Shang Yang, who was slowly waking up, stretched his waist and sat up while moving his arm that was a little numb.
In fact, if you really talk about it, Shang Yang is not really tired, but because since a long time ago, when he was in the hot spring village, because he often stayed up late playing video games with Hui Ye, Shang Yang and Jue developed the habit of taking a nap together, and after so many years, Shang Yang was too lazy to change.
Just as Shang Yang stood up, he was surprised to find that under the torii gate outside the shrine, Kikyo and Kaede were walking towards the shrine together.
"Lord Shang Yang......" Seeing Shang Yang sitting in front of the statue in the middle of the shrine, looking at himself and Sister Kikyo with some confusion, Kaede also greeted Shang Yang in a cheerful tone, "I'm here with Sister Kikyo." ”
While greeting, Kaede ran up the steps of the shrine in a few steps, trotted to the puzzled Shang Yang, took out a thing wrapped in sandalwood paper from his sleeve like a treasure, and held it to Shang Yang with both hands.
"Here, Lord Shangyang, this."
"Oh? What is it? Suspiciously taking the paper bag, Shang Yang couldn't help but ask strangely.
"Hmph~" Hearing Shang Yang's question, Feng showed a smug smile and replied briskly, "Thank you......"
"Thank you?" Hearing this, Shang Yang still repeated these two words with some doubts, and opened the paper bag casually, and what was wrapped in sandalwood paper was a white glutinous rice ball.
"Well, it was Kaede who made it herself," nodded, and Kaede still maintained a very smug smile and explained, "It's a thank you gift to Lord Shangyang, thank you for saving me." ”
"That's it......" Slightly bowed, Shang Yang waved his hand indifferently, "Don't care, don't care, I'm just a little faster than your sister, even if I don't rush to kill the hundred-footed demon woman, the demon breaking arrow will penetrate the heart of the hundred-footed demon woman before the hundred-footed demon woman catches you." ”
While speaking, Shang Yang also picked up the glutinous rice ball, tried to taste it, and then nodded, his tone relaxed.
"It tastes good, well, thank you Xiao Feng, I already know Kaede's gratitude from the rice ball."
"Well, you're welcome," hearing Shang Yang's relaxed evaluation, Feng, who was recognized, replied obviously more happily, "It's good that Lord Shang Yang is satisfied." ”
After saying this, Kaede turned her gaze to the bellflower beside her and spoke seriously.
"Then, sister, Kaede will go to the herb field first to pick the herbs that my sister said."
"Well, stay safe," Hearing Kaede's words, Kikyo leaned down, raised his hand and gently touched the top of Kaede's head, and whispered, "Kaede, remember not to run around." ”
"Well, I see," nodded seriously, Feng turned his gaze to Shang Yang who was nibbling on rice balls, and waved happily to Shang Yang, "Then, Lord Shang Yang, Feng will leave first, see you later." ”
"Ah, let's go," Hearing this, Shang Yang also leisurely raised his hand to Feng in the same way, and his tone was casual, "It's the same as what your sister said, pay attention to safety." ”
Hearing Shang Yang's words, Kaede nodded earnestly again, then turned around and trotted past the torii gate outside the shrine and ran towards the herb field in the village.
After watching Kaede run away, the witch with an indifferent expression also walked sideways to the altar's offering table, took out the jade of the four souls glowing with spiritual light from her sleeve, placed it, and then stepped back slightly, gently closed her eyes, raised her right hand, and lightly touched the surface of the jade of the four souls.
The invisible enchantment was formed, and the jade of the four souls that glowed with soft aura was firmly sealed, preventing it from coming into contact with a demonic spirit with evil qi and malice, and now it seems to be a treasure of the righteous path of the great light, as long as it comes into contact with the evil qi, it will instantly turn into a yin and evil thing, and the witch who guards the jade of the four souls understands this deeply.
Also turning to look at this scene, Shang Yang half-opened his eyes and persuaded leisurely.
"I'm still going to give up the jade of the four souls and send the jade of the four souls back to the demon slayer who dug it up, and whoever digs it out will be dealt with by ......"
“……”
As silent as ever, Kikyo still closed his eyes lightly, and his right index finger touched the surface of the Jade of the Four Souls, glowing with a soft aura.
In this way, it is not the first time that Shang Yang has said it, and it is not the first time that Kikyo has heard it. When saying such things, Shang Yang didn't care about Kikyo's answer, because Shang Yang already knew the answer, and Kikyo also understood that Shang Yang knew how he would respond, so she never answered such a question.
…… I know how Kikyo will answer, but I can't help but say something similar over and over again, well, I'm just another kind of meaningless chatter......
Sighing deeply in his heart, Shang Yang thought about it while picking up the white glutinous rice ball and taking another bite.
And it was at this moment that Kikyo turned around, and his clear eyes turned to Shang Yang, who was thinking about it while nibbling on the rice balls made by Kaede, and said something in a flat tone that seemed to be a little confusing.
"Don't push yourself so much."
"Uh, you know?! Wait! Hearing this, Shang Yang was stunned for a moment, and then while greeting, he immediately picked up the teacup on the table, raised his head and took a big sip of tea in his mouth, swallowed, let out a long breath, tasted it, and opened his eyes half-open, "I finally know what the rice ball with half rice and half salt tastes like when chewed......
"I'm sorry," Kikyo looked a little apologetic, "and when she wasn't paying attention, Kaede put a lot of salt in her." ”
"No, don't care," after tasting the salty and extremely bitter taste, Shang Yang still had his eyes half-open, and said weakly, "I can probably understand Feng's simple mind, eat more salt and have the strength and energy, right......?"
