Chapter 7: The Scourge of the Corpse Dance
Against the backdrop of that pale skin, a dull, ugly scarred face appeared.
"Boss!" The robbers all turned their heads in unison and looked at the man with an expression of awe.
"Huh!" The leader man didn't respond, just shook his head and slowly approached Kagome.
And the affectionate bandit men have already obediently helped him keep Sunset Kagome firmly in place, without giving him the slightest chance to struggle.
"I said, boss, why don't you just take it easy and cut her down with a knife? Ha ha! The robber on the side suggested with a smirk, apparently pleased with his idea.
"Poof!"
I don't know if it was because he listened to his subordinates, but the leader man who walked up to Sunset Kagome quickly pulled the katana out of its scabbard, and then slashed at her without hesitation.
I...... Are you going to die?
Just as Sunset Kagome closed her eyes in resignation and waited for death, a scream suddenly came from beside her, and then the air suddenly became dull and weird.
Sunset Kagome couldn't help but secretly open her eyes to look, only to see that the guy who had just suggested letting his boss cut people had fallen in a pool of blood at this moment.
The robbers around them all had stunned expressions, looking at the leader man, their eyes full of horror.
Sunset Kagome changed her mind and immediately understood the situation in front of her, and her face immediately became afraid.
"I cut it wrong!" The leader man scratched his bare head with the back of his knife indifferently, and then made an excuse for himself to hack his men to death.
As soon as he finished speaking, the leader man continued to swing his katana, and after the sharp blade slashed, it brought a violent air current, and the floor exploded in an instant, and sawdust flew everywhere.
Sunset Kagome and the bandit minions can only dodge everywhere, and the leader man, although he looks a little wooden, still cunningly occupies a position in the direction of the doorway, and if everyone wants to get out, they must escape from his blade.
"Boss, where are you chopping? She's here, it's right for you to cut this woman! The robbers had no choice, so they rushed up and pushed Sunset Kagome in front of the leader man.
"Your boss has gone crazy at all, and if you panic again, you will be cut in half, do you know?"
Sunset Kagome, who had just finished speaking, didn't have time to catch her breath when she saw the knife-wielding figure behind her from the timid eyes of the robbers, and hurriedly got down and narrowly escaped a death catastrophe.
Why? Why did I happen to such a thing?
The leader man looked completely insane at this time, he waved the katana in his hand indiscriminately, and the statues, beams, and pillars in the room were all cut down by him.
Scattered debris blocked the exit and extinguished the flame of hope for everyone's escape.
"The exit is blocked." The robbers looked at Sunset Kagome in a desperate tone.
"Jade ...... The Jade of the Four Souls, give it to me. The leader man lowered his head and stared at the glowing Jade of the Four Souls on Sunset Kagome's chest, and his temper gradually became more and more irritable.
"It's not just those youkai who want the Jade of the Four Souls, but also some people with evil hearts." Grandma Kaede's words at that time suddenly sounded in Kagome's ears at Sunset.
“......”
After struggling and tangling, Sunset Kagome directly pulled the Four Souls Jade from her neck, and then threw it outside.
"The Jade of the Four Souls!" The leader man turned his head mechanically and looked out of the room.
"Now, let's hurry up and knock the wall open." Sunset Kagome pointed to the cracked wall on one side and commanded in a hurried tone.
"Okay."
The robbers were completely obedient to Sunset Kagome's words, and immediately turned around and slammed into the wall.
"Boss, no!" One of the bandits, the minions, reluctantly responds to Sunset Kagome.
"Who's your boss! Forehead ......"
Before Kagome finished speaking, she suddenly looked up as if she felt something.
What caught her eye was a sharp katana, swinging down on her with a swift storm.
This time...... I guess I'm really going to die!
"Broken!"
A familiar muffled voice sounded in his ears, and then everything around him suddenly became quiet.
Sunset Kagome, who has experienced life and death many times in a day, slowly opened her eyes, and her long eyelashes were stained with crystal pearls.
It was not the fear of death, but the strong feelings of longing for the family and the guilt.
"Are you here to save me?" Sunset Kagome looked calmly at the minotaur youkai outside the shattered wall.
"Hmm." Fuhe nodded slightly, and then said no more.
"Thank you!" There was a hint of gratitude in the corners of Sunset's eyes, and although she hesitated, she finally spoke, "Burial River!" ”
It can be seen very clearly that Fu He held the hand of the Huangquan knife tightly and shook suddenly.
Without acknowledging or denying it, the crimson Hitomi just glanced at Kagome before turning to look behind her.
There, a fiery red figure stood on a branch, fangs slightly bared at the corners of his mouth, with pride.
"I said, you can't fool my nose."
"Please help me keep it a secret." After Burial River finished saying this, he didn't wait for Inuyasha and Sunset Kagome to agree, and left the place directly.
"Do you think he's so bad? Obviously, I knew in my heart that the old woman was suspicious of him, and she wanted us to keep it a secret. If you want me to say, being a monster is a lot more fun than being a human. Inuyasha jumped up from the tree to Sunset Kagome and sneered puzzled.
"You have to take care of it." Sunset Kagome tapped Inuyasha's head in a displeased tone.
"You like that kid?" Inuyasha couldn't help but sneer, and then said in a strange voice, "Hurry up and die this heart!" Humans and youkai don't end well together. ”
After saying that, as if remembering some bad past, Inuyasha's expression suddenly became very ugly.
At this time, the leader man, who was supposed to fall to the ground, slowly got up again.
"It smells so bad, this guy smells of rotting corpses all over his body." Inuyasha came back to his senses and couldn't help but cover his nose with the sleeves of his fire rat robe.
As a dog demon, a sensitive nose is convenient, because it can distinguish breath and so on, but it is also troublesome.
For example, if you are sensitive to smells, normal people and youkai may be able to continue talking when they turn their heads, but Inuyasha, a youkai with a strong sense of smell, may even faint directly if it is not specifically trained in this area.
"What!" Sunset Kagome was stunned for a moment, this guy was obviously killed by the Burial River just now!
However, the next scene gave Sunset Kagome the most intuitive explanation.
I saw that from the pale and tattered body of the leader man, the head of a crow with three blood-red eyes suddenly appeared.
"It seems that this leader probably ate his heart and built a nest last night!" Inuyasha looked at the knife mark drawn by the burial river and said to himself.
"He was manipulated by a demon? No wonder he looks weird. Sunset Kagome seemed to understand whether she understood or not, but after learning that it was not the person who was killed by the burial river, she felt a little more relieved.
"Although the corpse dance itself is not strong, it will use corpses to fight people, which makes it difficult to entangle."
With that, Inuyasha suddenly pulled out the chest of the leader man with a single claw with lightning speed.
"It ran away, Inuyasha, didn't you go after it?" Sunset Kagome exclaimed.
It turned out that the moment Inuyasha attacked, Corpse Dance U flew away from the body of the leader man.
And as the corpse dance black demon power dissipated, the leader man's body also turned into a puff of light smoke.
When the wind blows, it flies all over the sky, leaving no trace in the world.
"If I had to fight each of them, I wouldn't have enough bodies." Inuyasha ignored Sunset Kagome, instead clasped his hands to his chest and put on a very unhappy expression.
"But ......" Sunset Kagome looked very weak, her eyes wandering, and her red lips pursed lightly.
"But what?" Inuyasha's gaze couldn't help but slowly move along Sunset Kagome's delicate cheeks to her chest, and when he saw the delicate and smooth neck, he was immediately shocked and asked sharply, "What about the jade of the four souls?" ”
"Hey, hey!" Sunset Kagome smiled dryly and pointed to the outside of the house, which was blocked by debris.
"Whew!"
Inuyasha immediately lifted his legs and rushed outside, but by this time, it was already too late.
The image that Inuyasha saw in his eyes was that the corpse dance black tip had the jade of the four souls in his mouth, let out a sharp roar, and then rushed directly into the sky.
