Chapter 362: Searching for the Idol

Chapter 362: Searching for the Idol of the Gods...... Other words! You went to the fields in the village to make trouble in search of the lost ape god! ”

After listening to the explanation of the three monkeys, Inuyasha picked his ears in boredom.

The general situation, he already understands!

These three little monkeys are not the kind of vexatious mischievous monsters, but the "spirit" spirits who "serve" the so-called ape god. The legendary ape god does exist zĂ i, and the shrine also has it. However, not long ago, due to an abrupt lightning strike, the shrine caught fire, and the statue of the god of the ape seemed to be missing.

And these three little monkeys suspected that the villagers had taken away the idol where the ape god was staying.

"That's right, as the guardian of the shrine, we have always been cultivating and protecting the shrine, so the ape god is lost, and we must be responsible for finding it back!"

The little monkey at the head crossed his waist and replied loudly. It's just that this kind of mature action is made by him, a little bean ding, and it looks extremely funny.

"But why do you think the villagers took the idol?"

Kagome, who had finally calmed down, asked.

"Because we know that the idol was buried in the field of the village by them, the ape god told us in a dream!"

"Me too!"

"I dreamed it too!"

"The ape-sama sued us that he was in a wet and dark place!"

"In a narrow, almost breathless place!"

"The smell of vegetables all around him is so bad that he can't stand it!"

The three little monkeys scrambled to explain that it seemed that they really wanted to find the idol of the ape god from the bottom of their hearts, not the inuyasha's deterrence. It's just that even the idol will be lost, is that ape god really the legendary god alongside the dog god?

Inuyasha knows that sometimes, some "spirit" monsters, under the belief of humans, will also become a strange existence similar to a god. But their ability is at most to make the local wind and rain go well, or make dreams and wishes.

It's not as good as a slightly more advanced youkai.

"Well! Don't be in such a hurry, with Inuyasha's help, you'll definitely be able to find the idol in no time! By the way, I heard that there used to be a shrine of the dog god here, isn't it true? ”

Kagome glanced at Inuyasha, who looked disappointed, and knew that the other party had lost interest because the so-called ape god had even taken away his own god statue, and it was obviously not a god with strong mana, probably something like an earthbound spirit, so he asked instead.

"Inujin! Well! I think I've heard from Ape God that it is said that it has been buried in the ground due to a flash flood, and I don't know if it's true! ”

"It's been too long, we're young, and we don't know much about the things about the dog god!"

"But the dog god does seem to have existed, otherwise those villagers wouldn't have come to you to deal with us, just want to know about the dog god, only the ape god knows best, although the ape god has weakened a lot due to the passage of time, but the previous memories are still retained!"

"Then after all, we're going to go to that ape-sama!"

Inuyasha finally came to the conclusion that the three little monkeys were "messy" and went from helping the villagers drive away the monkeys to helping the monkeys find the idols.

"What a nuisance!"

"The ......"

Just when Inuyasha had some headaches about how to find the idol of the ape god, Nanako suddenly spoke. It's just that her expression is a little hesitant.

"What's wrong? Nanako! ”

Kikyo looked at the little princess and asked, she had already sensed that Nanako's expression was a little strange from the time she had just heard the three monkeys speak.

"This, maybe, I know where the ape god is?"

Nanako closed her eyes, as if she was remembering something, and then slowly opened her eyes and said.

"Where?"

"I'm not sure, I need the village to confirm!"

Nanako shook her head and replied.

Inuyasha glanced at Kikyo and Tsuiko, then nodded.

"Then we'll go back first!"

The expressions of the three little monkeys don't look like they're lying, and although Nanako is usually a little out of tune, her strength is there, and she is not the kind of person who talks about it without any basis.

She must have found something!

Inuyasha was in front, and the group followed the road they had come from, and returned to the village again, only this time there were three more monkeys in the group.

When I came to the village chief's house, I was surprised to see the village chief behind Inuyasha and his party. Inuyasha gestured to Nanako, who nodded and stepped forward to ask.

"Village Chief, are those pickles of yours still there?"

"Well, it's still here, what's wrong?"

The village chief glanced at the three monkeys behind the group, then walked into the house and took out the pickles that had been served to Inuyasha not long ago.

"Ahh It's the divine glow of the ape-sama! Sure enough, Saru-sama is in the field in the village (*3)! ”

The three little monkeys exclaimed in unison when they saw the pickles taken out by the village chief.

"Impossible!"

"Why?"

Seeing the pickles, even Inuyasha thought that the ape god was in the fields in the village, but Kagome directly said that it was impossible, which made Inuyasha and them a little strange.

"Isn't that obvious! The pickles had been in the jar for a while, but the statue of the ape god might not have been lost at that time, and it was impossible for the pickles to be stained with the radiance of the ape god in the ground! ”

Kagome lives in modern times, and it is generally far away from the fields and the like, so the pickles pickled at home are usually bought from the market. They are more sensitive to pickled pickles than bellflowers.

No, Kikyo and the others probably don't know anything about pickles.

"Indeed, if the pickles were plucked from the ground before they were touched, then the idol of the ape god should be ......."

All eyes were on the village chief.

"Village chief, where are these pickles taken from!"

Inuyasha asked.

"Ahh These pickles were taken out of my family's jar of pickles, what's the problem? ”

The village chief 'touched' his head, not understanding what Inuyasha was talking about.

"Take us there!"

"Ah...... Be! ”

Under the guidance of the village chief, Inuyasha and his party came to the back of the house. The sharp-eyed three little monkeys saw the stones on the pickle jar at a glance.

"Ahh It is the idol of the ape god and looks! Sure enough, you stole the statue of the ape-sama! ”

"Ahh Ape God-sama! ”

The three little monkeys immediately rushed to the stone pressed against the jar of pickles and shouted loudly, while looking at the village chief angrily.

"Ahh We didn't steal this stone, we picked it up outside the village, and it looked like it was perfect for pressing pickles, so I moved it back! ”

The village chief explained innocently.

"Pour water on your body and you'll know!"

Kikyo scooped up a scoop of water from the side, soaked in a trace of spiritual power, and then poured it on the deep alley, washing away the dust and stains on it, "revealing" the true face of the idol. Sure enough, just as the dust was washed away, the idol emitted a faint fluorescence, and at the same time, a white "colored" phantom emerged from the idol.

"Ahh Ape God-sama! We've finally found you! ”

Seeing a phantom with a white beard on his face, the three little monkeys immediately pounced.

"This old man is the god of apes!"

Inuyasha looked at the old man on crutches with a look of disbelief, the other party did have divine power, but ...... It's too little, if you follow the ratio of youkai, it's even less than the demonic power of three little monkeys. Such a guy can even appear in the world, from a certain point of view, he can indeed be called a god, but unfortunately the most inconspicuous kind.

"Thank you, not only did you not blame them for their pranks, but you also helped me find out who I really am!"

The old man ape god came to Inuyasha and them, bowed slightly, and said with emotion.

"Where! Where! So, we have a question for you, which is about ......"

"I've heard from the children that you're looking for the Inugami and the Inugami Shrine! However, this red-clothed young man does have the unique smell of the dog god clan, I can't imagine that so many years have passed, and in this era when the gods have disappeared, there are still dog monsters who have awakened the blood of the dog god clan! ”

The old man shrugged his nose at Inuyasha, then raised his head and said with nostalgia.

"It's just that the blood of the dog god in your body seems to have fallen into a deep sleep again after awakening for some reason!"

"Looks like you're still a little bit capable! When I lifted the seal of this little guy, I encountered the divine fire of the seal, and finally relied on the awakening bloodline to "survive", but after that, that power disappeared again! ”

Inuyasha's fingers lightly scraped the head of the little "Tamamo" who was squatting on his shoulder, and explained.

"This ...... This is...... White-faced golden "hair" nine-tailed demon fox! How is it possible, how can this kind of monster appear in such an era! Yes...... No, it seems to be just a clone, could it be that you broke the seal of the nine-tailed demon fox in the first place, do you know what you are doing! How can you put this kind of thing out, as a dog god clan, you actually ......"

"Old man, you're saying 'jade' algae in that tone, don't blame me for being rude to you!"

Hearing the ape god's name for the little "jade" algae, Inuyasha flashed his claws and said angrily.

"Calm down, Inuyasha, the ape god has no ill will!"

Kagome soothed Inuyasha, turned to the ape god and said:

"Little 'jade' algae, she won't do evil, don't worry! Since the dog god is real, then the shrine of the legendary dog god in this village is also real, where is the dog god who came with you! ”

"Hmph, this little girl can talk! Of course the dog god is real.,That shrine is in the valley opposite the shrine where I live.,It used to be a hillside there.,It's a pity that it was washed away by a flash flood.,Well! Anyway, even if it doesn't collapse, the dog god won't be there anymore! ”

As if recalling something bad, the voice of the old man of the ape god was a little sad.

"Can you show us around?"

"Of course!"

The old man of the ape god turned to the village chief and continued:

"If you can worship me from now on, I can bless this village!"

"Of course, Ape God-sama!"

Knowing that the ape god not only really existed, but also promised to protect the village, the village chief happily agreed.

After the old man of the ape god had finished the matter with the village chief, he took Inuyasha and the others to the valley opposite his burned shrine in the mountains again. The shrine of the ape god is occasionally worshipped, but the shrine of the disappeared dog god is completely forgotten and remains in the legend.

On the way, Inuyasha and the others also learned the truth about the disappearance of the dog god from the old man of the ape god.

The era of the end of the law is also divided into three stages.

The first stage is the lack of aura, in the case of more monks and less porridge, the divine power is not fully replenished, and the gods and most of the demons have left this world, but there are also a small number of people who are unwilling to leave, such as the ape god and dog god who came to this place, that is, they choose to stay and be one of them.

It's a pity that just after the gods and demons disappeared, the era of the end of the law immediately ushered in the second stage.

The passage of the plane was closed, and the already scarce spiritual power could not even be replenished. The stubborn dog god of "sex" disappeared directly with the consumption of divine power. The ape god, on the other hand, parasitized his divine body on a stone full of spirituality, and survived in the form of a spirit body. Q
