The countryside of the Takeshu district (Musashi country).

Walking on the road covered by thick snow, looking at the white land in front of him, Shang Yang, who originally wanted to use the famous sentence "Northern scenery, thousands of miles of ice, thousands of miles of snow drifting...... to improve his literary and artistic level, quickly gave up this idea, poetry or something, it is estimated that the bellflower who was walking in front of him at this time was not interested.

sighed a little depressedly, held his forehead, but he didn't expect the action to be a little big, and the pain caused by the injury in his abdomen couldn't help but make Shang Yang "his......s" and take a cool breath.

"I'll ...... Looks like it's a little bit off......"

Ahead, hearing the sound of Shang Yang's inhalation, the bellflower, who was wearing a hat and a straw coat, and was carefully stepping on the snow to move forward, also stopped, turned around, and asked softly.

"What's wrong?"

Originally, the bellflower wanted Shang Yang to put on her grass clothes, but Shang Yang pushed it to her very decisively, he was pretending, although the fake play was really a bit of a play, but Shang Yang was a little guilty, and he couldn't get over his self-esteem.

"Ahem, it's okay," Shang Yang, who waved his hand and signaled that he was fine, explained a little reluctantly, "It may have been slightly pulled to the wound." ”

"......I see," Kikyo tilted his head thoughtfully, "It seems that the demon poison is more difficult than you expected." ”

"Ah...... I really underestimated it," Shang Yang shook his head depressedly, "I thought that with my recovery strength, the wound would always be healed overnight, but I didn't expect that because of the demon poison, the wound would just not bleed anymore, but it didn't heal at all." ”

Although it seemed that Shang Yang was depressed, Shang Yang's mind was thinking about other things at this time.

Mistake,The current body is a little too fragile.,Although it's considered.,But it really should be strengthened in the ability to restore fù.,Hawkers,But it's also my luck is not very good.,Find a monster.,What I met was a monster who was good at venom.。

Hearing Shang Yang's words, Kikyo showed a look of understanding and asked lightly.

"Do you want to take a break, if you continue to walk, the wound may still ooze blood."

"No, no need," a little distracted thought was pulled back by the voice of the bellflower, Shang Yang subconsciously refused, "It's not a big deal, besides, it's been delayed for a long time, if you delay it again, the people in the village will worry about you." ”

Hearing Shang Yang's words, the bellflower gently glanced at Shang Yang with his eyes like water, turned around, walked in front of Shang Yang, and took something out of his sleeve.

“…… Endure. ”

"Uh...... What ......" Looking at Kikyo's strange behavior, the puzzled Shang Yang was subconsciously asking a question, while Kikyo took out a white charm from her sleeve, and before Shang Yang could react, he quickly pasted it on the position of the clothes where Shang Yang's wound was opposed.

With the sound of sandpaper rubbing when the spiritual power and the demonic energy collided, Shang Yang's face turned white, and at the same time that the bellflower was pasted with this charm, Shang Yang felt like a piece of red-hot soldering iron was soldered, and it was already considered that Shang Yang's concentration was not shallow......

However, this feeling only lasted for a moment, and when the pain disappeared, the dull pain of the wound was no longer painful.

"Temporarily cut off the feeling of the wound," Kikyo explained lightly, retracting his white hand, "so that it won't hurt when I hurry, and when I get to the village, I'll take care of it carefully." ”

…… Is it really okay for you to treat the injured like this, Mikoma-sama......

About an hour later, in a village in the countryside of Wuzhou.

This is a rural village called Kaede no Village, because of the years of war, the management of such a village by the city lords has declined greatly, relying on the village's farmland, although it cannot be said that the villagers are fed, but they will not starve to death, although life is hard, but at least they can survive.

Although many villages are not as lucky as Kaede Village......

Kikyo and Shang Yang walked all the way along the snow-covered road to the entrance of the village, and at the same time, the climate was already "sunny", but at this time, snowflakes began to fall.

As soon as he walked to the entrance of the village, Kikyo frowned slightly.

"Footprints, too many. Moreover, there are horseshoe prints......"

He also saw a large number of messy footprints and horseshoe prints that appeared next to him, heading towards the village, and Shang Yang's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Is it a horse thief......

"I don't know," Kikyo shook his head slightly, his tone calm, "However, if it's a horse thief, it shouldn't matter, before I left, I had already laid an enchantment at the shrine that could be activated at any time." ”

"If there are horse thieves or monsters, the villagers will evacuate to the shrine as soon as possible, and my sister will also open the enchantment, which is an enchantment that can block both monsters and humans......"

As soon as Kikyo's words fell, Shang Yang and she saw that several villagers were trotting all the way from the direction of the shrine to the entrance of the village, and when he saw Kikyo standing at the entrance of the village, their slightly nervous expressions also seemed to relax.

"Kikyo-sama, you're finally back," one of the middle-aged villagers gasped and explained to Kikyo, "Early in the morning, a large number of demon slayers who claimed to be from the demon slayer village came to the village, and they said that there was something important that they wanted to entrust to Kikyo-sama. ”

"Important things ......" Repeating these words lightly, Kikyo asked lightly, "Where are they?" ”

"They're all gathered at the shrine, and Kaede-sama is negotiating with them!"

Nodding, Kikyo immediately walked briskly in the direction of the village shrine, and the merchant sheep, who looked like this, couldn't help but shrug his shoulders and followed with the villagers.

Shrine.

"It's all ~said~!" Standing outside the door of the shrine, a girl dressed in an earthy yellow kimono and tied with long black hair also in white sandalwood paper crossed her hands on her hips and explained loudly to the strangely dressed demon killer villagers standing at the foot of the steps, "Sister Kikyo received a commission two days ago and went to another village to get rid of demons!" You haven't come back yet, so come back another day! ”

"This is not going to work, Kaede-sama," the leading village chief of the Demon Slaying Village, a middle-aged man, said in embarrassment, "This thing can't be placed here with us, it must be handed over to Kikyo-sama for safekeeping today......

"You're so stubborn!" Kaede also looked embarrassed and explained loudly again, "This kind of thing can only be decided by Sister Kikyo......"

Before Kaede could finish speaking, a cold, but soft voice sounded from the torii gate in front of the shrine.

"Kaede, it's okay, let me handle it."

Hearing this voice, Kaede couldn't help but be stunned, and even showed joy.

"Sister-sama! You're back......"

"Ah, Kikyo-sama!" Also turned around, the head of the demon slayer village who saw the bellflower with a flat expression also showed joy on his face, and bowed respectfully to the bellflower, "We've been waiting for a long time." ”

"Please don't have to be like this, I already know the matter," Kikyo asked with a flat expression, "So, what is that important thing?" ”

"Ah, that's it," the village chief hurriedly took something out of his sleeve and handed it to Kikyo, "Please be sure to accept it." ”

Lying quietly in the palm of his hand was a jade bead glowing pink.

Seeing this jade bead, Shang Yang, who was standing beside the bellflower, narrowed his eyes slightly, and his deep black eyes were full of rare indifference.

The Jade of the Four Souls.
