Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Blush
"This is ......"
Kikyo asked, looking at the delicate shell on Inuyasha's palm, suspiciously.
"It's useless for me to take it, I'll give it to you!"
Inuyasha smiled mysteriously and handed it over solemnly. After the bellflower took it, Fang nodded and said:
"Open it and take a look!"
Kikyo quietly stretched out his hand, and after taking Inuyasha's shell, he was also a little excited. If you don't count the handkerchief that you left to yourself, this is the first gift Inuyasha has given herself. And looking at Inuyasha's mysterious appearance, this gift is probably also of great significance!
Call!
Kikyo held the shell in front of his chest, took a deep breath first, calmed his restless heart, and then placed the shell in the palm of his left hand, and gently pushed it away with his right hand!
In an instant, a cherry-colored halo bloomed from the shell, and then, a burst of calming fragrance filled the entire heart and spleen, and at the same time, it quickly dispersed in all directions. Even the air seems to be dyed with a faint layer of pink.
"It's ...... Lipstick! ”
What catches your eye is a touch of cherry red intoxicating lipstick, and from the magnificent color of this faint red, and the strange appearance it reveals, you can imagine how precious this red clay that seems to be only two fingers thick. In particular, the bellflower even sensed a mysterious spiritual power full of infinite vitality from it. Kikyo had seen such cosmetics used by girls as lipsticks when the girls in the village gathered around the stalls, but it was the first time that Kikyo had seen such a peculiar lipstick in a beautiful shell.
But of course, it's also a token of love that Inuyasha's father gave to his mother for sixteen nights, not only the shell uses the shell of a rare goblin in the deep sea that can calm the mind, but also those lipsticks are a legendary piece of God-given stone zuò to come, the color is not only enduring, but also can absorb the aura of heaven and earth, self-generated, as long as it is not used up at once, it can be slowly recovered, it can be said to be inexhaustible, it is a real legendary treasure.
"Aside from my fire rat robe, this box of lipstick is the last relic my mother left in the world."
"Is your mom human!"
Kikyo then remembered that although she knew the identity of Inuyasha's half-demon, she didn't know his specific family situation at all. Because generally half-demons are inherited, it is still very rare to have a father who is a monster and whose mother is a human, after all, it is difficult for a human woman to like an ugly and evil monster, and youkai generally treat humans as food, even if they violate human women driven by desire, they will eat them immediately.
Moreover, the most important thing is that from the point of view of Inuyasha's strength as a half-demon but a big youkai, the bloodline he inherited is definitely not trivial, and it is very likely that he is the big clan that rules the demon world, just like the thunder eagle he met last time.
And the only one who meets the conditions of Inuyasha's father is the legendary Inuyama who once used the country of the west as his lair, and his power chased after the dragon clan and ruled almost the entire land!
Kikyo thought about it, and instantly guessed the origin of Inuyasha. In the past, she put all her thoughts on Inuyasha, and she didn't think about Inuyasha's family, but today, when she received a gift from Inuyasha and was the last relic of his mother, she finally contacted Inuyasha's life experience.
However, it doesn't matter if you know these things or not, Kikyo cares about Inuyasha, not Inuyasha's identity, or family background.
The three relics, except for the fire rat robe worn by Inuyasha, the other two already belong to Kikyo!
"Hmmm! My mom was said to be the princess of the largest country in the West more than a hundred years ago! It is said that this is still a token of love given to her by my father, who has never met before! Although I didn't feel any feelings for the old man, I really gave my mother a good thing! ”
Seeing the look of surprise on Kikyo's face, Inuyasha knew that this gift was the right one! Yesterday's temptation was escaped by Kikyo at the end! But Inuyasha is not such an easy person to give up, make persistent efforts, strike while the iron is hot, and directly capture the bellflower that has begun to waver.
"Such a precious thing, what a ...... Do you really want to give it to me? ”
Kikyo's voice trembled a little.
Inuyasha's gift was really too heavy, too heavy for her to bear.
This qiē is like a dream for the bellflower. Not long ago, when she was inspecting the village, she saw the girls in the village happily gathering in front of the vendors' stalls, buying fat and powder, and talking about what kind of lipstick to wear to attract the attention of their lovers. Unexpectedly, within a few days, I received a shell that was far more precious than the most expensive lipstick on the stall.
It's still a boy, who took the initiative to give it to himself, a relic left to him by his mother.
This and lipstick, the meaning contained in it, is by no means as simple as an ordinary gift. Rather, Inuyasha pursued his own escape yesterday.
Kikyo only felt that her reason was slowly disappearing, and in a blur, she slowly took the initiative to walk in front of Inuyasha, looking up at Inuyasha's handsome baby face, and her eyes gradually moistened!
"Don't mind so much, the fire rat robe is enough! Besides, this thing is the same as that handkerchief, and it's useless for me to keep it, so I might as well give it to you! ”
Inuyasha really doesn't know how to say sweet words, and at such a critical moment, he is still like a child, very unfrank. However, the gentleness hidden in Inuyasha's unfrankness, and the delicate girlish heart of Kikyo are clearly felt.
"I'm sorry, Inuyasha!"
Kikyo, who had long been moved by Inuyasha's unromantic, but childish move, could no longer hide the guilt in his heart after hearing Inuyasha's words, and leaned up and picked up Inuyasha's sleeve.
"I didn't know it was like that, I even shot it last time! I'm sorry."
"Humph! You don't mind that! You didn't know at the time, by the way, what about the gift you were talking about for me? ”
Inuyasha shook his head generously, signaling that Kikyo didn't have to care, and Inuyasha cared more about Kikyo's answer than about it. These two actions yesterday and today have exhausted Inuyasha's just passing emotional intelligence, and if it doesn't work, Inuyasha really has to follow the steps step by step, deepening the relationship with Kikyo over time, until the barriers of both parties' identities are broken.
This is undoubtedly a terrible ordeal for Inuyasha, who has been waiting for more than a hundred years and has an impatient temperament.
Kikyo saw Inuyasha looking at himself with a little anxious expectation, and slowly reached into the wide sleeves of his shirt and picked up the rosary. However, after thinking of such a precious thing that Inuyasha had given him, and thinking that he was plotting against him and binding him to his side, he put down the rosary he had picked up. But it was too late, and the sound of Kikyo picking up the rosary had already reached Inuyasha's sensitive dog ears.
"Ahh Maple! ”
Inuyasha's ears twitched slightly, and he suddenly pointed behind Kikyo and shouted loudly. Then at the moment when Kikyo turned his head, at a lightning speed, his right hand reached into Kikyo's sleeve and took out the rosary that had just been put down by Kikyo.
"Ahh What a beautiful rosary necklace, and these magatama! Kikyo, is this what you wore for me with your own hands? ”
"Ah...... Well! ”
Just when Kikyo wanted to explain that he had taken the rosary back, Inuyasha couldn't wait to hang the rosary around his neck.
"Hmmm! Is it appropriate, Kikyo, I like this gift very much! ”
"No, Inuyasha, you can't bring this string of prayer beads...... Yes! ”
Kikyo lightly covered her cherry mouth, and she said the name of the rosary herself, and she knew what the function of the rosary was.
"Prayer Beads!"
Inuyasha repeated softly, trying to take off the rosary, and sure enough, a pure and huge spiritual power bound him, and he couldn't take it off at all. Inuyasha looked at Kikyo with a sad face, and from what she had just said, she probably knew why Kikyo didn't want to give him this gift.
"I'll come, only the caster can take down this rosary!"
Kikyo didn't seem to be angry when he saw Inuyasha, and immediately stepped forward to take the rosary off, but was immediately confused by Inuyasha's behavior, because Inuyasha dodged Kikyo's hand to take off the rosary.
"You're not going to hurt me, are you?"
"Hmmm! Of course! ”
"In that case, let me take it with me, I like this rosary very much, it's something you want to give me, how can I let you take it back!"
Inuyasha believes that Kikyo didn't mean to hurt himself by giving him this rosary, so he doesn't want Kikyo to take it back.
"Inuyasha!"
Kikyo looked at Inuyasha with emotion, just now when Inuyasha brought the rosary and heard the true effect of the rosary, Kikyo was still very worried that Inuyasha would misunderstand him, afraid that Inuyasha would hate himself because he might be bound, but after hearing Inuyasha's next words, Kikyo's nervous mood finally relaxed.
"Thank you, but this rosary must be taken back, because it has not yet been spoken, and it is very likely that it will be controlled by other people who may manipulate the rosary, so ......"
Kikyo walked up to Inuyasha and took the rosary off the neck of Inuyasha, who had reluctantly stopped there after hearing his words.
"Cut, make me happy in vain!"
"As compensation, I'll give you another gift tomorrow!"
Kikyo looked at Inuyasha, who was angry like a child, and laughed and coaxed.
"But is this really for me?"
"Of course, it's already yours, but don't hide him, I'll see it tomorrow!"
Inuyasha, who understands Kikyo's personality, doesn't want Kikyo to take the lipstick back and not use it, and with Kikyo's hot personality, that's almost certain. But Inuyasha really wants to see what Kikyo looks like after applying lipstick, and this lipstick was originally sent by Inuyasha to make sure that Kikyo has the heart, and he believes that Kikyo must understand what he means.
Tomorrow, answer his feelings!
"Hmmm! It's still here tomorrow and you'll see! ”
Kikyo happily put the lipstick in his arms, put it with the handkerchief, and returned with a smile. Of course, she understood Inuyasha's meaning, in fact, before that, she was ready to promise Inuyasha if Inuyasha still did the kind of thing she did yesterday to her. But sure enough, women always want to show their most beautiful side in front of their lovers, and Kikyo is no exception.
This lipstick is the best and most suitable gift.
"Inuyasha, I want to ask you one more question! Before I went back to the village, when I was slaying demons with a witch named Tsubaki, did you hide in the forest and observe me? ”
"Ah...... That ......"
Hearing Kikyo suddenly ask this question, Inuyasha was a little embarrassed and hesitated to know how to answer.
"Just after we destroyed the youkai, did you leave...... Have you ever been attacked by a curse! ”
Seeing Inuyasha's slurring appearance, Kikyo didn't tease him, but continued to ask the next question very seriously.
"Curse! Yes! It was that inexplicable curse from a month ago, hmph, I don't know which bastard suddenly got a curse on me, despite the fact that he looked down on me too much, not only did I dispel it immediately, but I also fought back with a curse, enough for him to spit out several mouthfuls of blood, if I found out who it was, I would definitely kill him. But it's weird, there's no such thing as my body, and I don't know my name, how did that guy curse me, I don't believe anyone can curse someone without a medium! ”
Hearing Kikyo talk about the word curse a month ago, Inuyasha immediately remembered the strange curse that had been scattered by himself.
(You're right, it's true that no one can curse people without a medium, because the medium of the curse is me, and I can't imagine that it's really you, Inuyasha, and you're the man I'm going to fall in love with.) )
"Huh! How do you know, don't you ......?"
"Nope! It's just that I saw that there was a witch who used a curse spell of odd seconds and was spit out a mouthful of blood by the backlash, so I just asked, I didn't expect it to be you, but you don't have to go to her, I believe the backlash has taught her enough lessons. “
After confirming that the other object of Tsubaki's original curse was indeed Inuyasha, Kikyo's face finally showed a relaxed expression.
That's great!
The man she will fall in love with in the future is Inuyasha, and it's really good!
That way, tomorrow, I can ......
Kikyo looked at the tall back of Inuyasha, who stood proudly, and a look of determination flashed in his eyes. Accepted Inuyasha's lipstick, promised Inuyasha's agreement, and added that so-called fate.
The so-called fate of the witch has been completely abandoned by her to the clouds. G
