The person who came was a woman, but unlike the young and beautiful women who can trigger the plot in ordinary stories, the attacker this time was a middle-aged and elderly woman, and it was not an extremely deviant woman with an appearance and figure like Hojo Sakumo, who was obviously sixty years old, but only thirty years old, but a real middle-aged and elderly woman, and she was not good-looking.

At least it doesn't feel beautiful now, but it feels like a combination of a mountain village woman and a bandit and bandits, so even if you wear the most orthodox shrine maiden costume - white clothes and red crotch, it is difficult to make people feel intimate against the background of black and white hair and black skin eyepatch hanging on the right eye.

Not to mention that she still has a fierce face at this time, if anyone can be tempted by this kind of woman, it is either a hardcore lover or something else, anyway, Qin Heqing doesn't have any superfluous thoughts now.

Even if he had already recognized the other party's identity with the help of the other party's costume at this time, as well as the memory ripples caused by Inuyasha, the sister of the legendary shrine maiden Kikyo, Kaede!

A low-energy shrine maiden who has inherited Kikyo's ambition and vows to protect the village and the seal.

Abbreviation, the old woman of the miscellaneous soldiers.

Without waiting for Qin Heqing to speak, the old woman Feng took the lead in asking her, "Who are you and why are you here." ”

As for the fact that the arrow was stopped in mid-air, although she couldn't do it, she had seen her sister Kikyo do such a thing, so naturally she wouldn't be so surprised that she was so shocked that she forgot the reason for her attack.

"I'm a retainer of Izu Province who guards Hojo Sakumo, and I'm here to determine the situation of the villages and towns here, so as to facilitate Hojo-sama's future planning, but it's you, and you will directly attack us with arrows without making a sound, what are your intentions!" Qin Heqing took out the token that he got from Hojo Hakumo that could represent her identity and compared it to Feng, and then his face straightened, and Chao Feng, whose eyes were full of gloom, asked in a cold voice, "Do you want to rebel?!" ”

"Uh...... This adult, I'm sorry, I thought you were a spy of the nearby bandits, so I didn't think much about it, and launched a direct attack on you, this is my mistake, I apologize, and please see that the starting point of the old body is to protect the village, and please forgive me. Feng was taken aback by Qin Heqing's words, although he was still suspicious, he couldn't continue to point his bow and arrow at the other party, so he had to put down his weapon and explain apologetically.

"Guarding against bandits? Have you ever seen a bandit spy who is so well dressed and travels with his female dependents? Qin Heqing asked rhetorically with a sneer on his face.

"It's because I'm old and dizzy, I didn't pay attention, and I ask your forgiveness. After all, there are very few strangers in this vicinity, and the location where you appear is such a remote place, how can I, an old woman, protect myself and the village if I am not vigilant? If you still refuse to forgive, my old woman will have to apologize with death. After seeing that Qin Heqing seemed to have a posture of grasping the problem of attack, Feng immediately changed his strategy, began to rely on the old man and sell the old man, and also played a scoundrel, preparing to threaten his own life to counter Qin Heqing and make him give up continuing to pursue the attack.

"Okay, you die." Qin Heqing was unmoved, and put on a posture of emotionlessness and said calmly.

"......" Suddenly, Feng's tone was sluggish, and he couldn't speak anymore.

I guess I didn't expect that this young adult, who is obviously not an ordinary person, would be so difficult.

After a while, Kaede said helplessly, "Tell me, sir, what do you want to do." ”

"Not pretending?"

"Not anymore." Kaede replied.

"It wouldn't have been like this sooner." Qin He said indifferently. Then after a pause, he pointed to the Inuyasha hanging from the so-called god tree behind him and said, "Tell me what's going on with this guy." ”

"Inuyasha?" Feng frowned, and looked at Qin Heqing's gaze becoming vigilant again, "This is the reason why you are here, right?" Say, "Who are you, and what is the purpose of coming here?" ”

In the end, Feng raised the arrow again and pointed it at Qin Heqing and the others.

"You should know that your attack won't hurt us." Qin He said calmly.

"I know. But as long as I have a breath of air, I will never watch you break the seal and put Inuyasha down! Kaede replied without hesitation.

"Who told you we were going to release him?" Qin Heqing asked in surprise.

"Isn't it Inuyasha that you're here for?" Kaede wondered.

"When did I say I was here for him?"

"Then ...... you came here," Kaede hesitated.

"Didn't you say it before, on behalf of Lord Hojo Sakumo, I came here to check the population of the village to determine the future development strategy."

"Are you really Hojo-sama's retainers?" Kaede said in amazement.

"Or else? It's no good to lie to you. Qin He cleared his hands and said.

Although for now, he is indeed lying to Kaede. But if he didn't say that, how could Yi Feng attach importance to this side tolerate Qin Heqing and the others to continue to operate here? So the lesser of two evils, let's fool Zhu Feng first.

"Then this is not the place to talk, and I will ask a few adults to follow me to the bottom of the mountain to discuss." Feng looked at Qin Heqing and the others, and finally put away the bow and arrows and greeted.

"Lead the way."

The group then left the vicinity of Mikamiki, where Inuyasha was located, and returned to the bottom of the mountain under the leadership of Kaede, returning to the village.

"The conditions are simple, and there is something inadequate for hospitality, I hope a few adults don't mind." In the dilapidated hut where Feng lived, Feng used the broken pottery bowl at home to get some tea for Qin Heqing and Yue'er.

"You're very respectable in the village." Qin Heqing glanced at the tea in the bowl, didn't drink it, but looked at Feng Nuo and said.

"It's all my sister's blessing, and if I didn't have my sister's blessing, even if I could gain respect, I would never be able to speak more effectively than the village chief like I am now." Kaede said modestly.

"I don't know if the sister you are talking about is ......"

"Kikyo."

"Shrine maiden Kikyo?" Qin Heqing pretended to be surprised.

"Have you ever heard of my sister's prestige?" Maple and there is a way of honor.

"The prestige of the legendary shrine maiden Kikyo, Hojo-sama has heard of it." Qin Heqing said with a smile.

Then the two gossiped about it, and before they knew it, they talked about Inuyasha. And this time, Kaede finally didn't hide it, but he didn't tell it all, but he selectively told Inuyasha about it-

To sum up, the dog demon made trouble and was suppressed by his sister, but the origin of the dog demon is extraordinary, and it is cunning and abnormal, so he raided the bellflower at the last moment before being suppressed, causing the bellflower to end his life at a young age.

But the village can't do without the protection of the shrine maid, so in desperation, Kaede, who is a half-tone, has to take over the responsibility and take on the task of protecting the village.

And did a good job, barely holding on for almost forty years, except for the loss of an eye, there was no major danger, and the village was able to continue smoothly on this land.
