Chapter 178: Priest Izumo

"My name is Izumo, and my family has been a priest for generations!"

Finding an open space to sit down, the priest-like human asked Inuyasha for a bottle of water, and after a few sips to quench their thirst, they first introduced themselves.

"Priest? Mankind? ”

The phrase "generations in the family are priests" caught the attention of Inuyasha.

"Well, as you can see, I'm of course a pure human, and you look like a half-demon!"

The priest who called Izumo didn't know if he really didn't know his identity or deliberately concealed it, and calmly admitted that he was a human, and at the same time pointed out the identity of Inuyasha's half-demon.

"So what!"

From Izumo's words, Inuyasha heard something slightly untrue, and Inuyasha, who originally thought that the other party was the same kind, immediately expressed himself like an insulted half-demon when he saw that the other party had actually shifted the topic to himself, but he already had doubts about this guy in his heart. Of course, Kagome and the others, who saw Inuyasha's appearance Xiàn completely devoid of their previous calmness and wisdom, naturally sensed Inuyasha's wariness of Izumo, so they didn't immediately open their mouths and let Inuyasha test this strange priest.

"No, I don't have any malice, it's just that a powerful half-demon like you, it's the first time I've seen it, I guess your bloodline must be very noble! And it doesn't seem like you're using demonic power! ”

"It's over, since you're a priest, then why don't you stay at your shrine and run to this kind of deep mountains and old forests, where monsters haunt you!"

Although Inuyasha was asking Izumo, he actually divided half of his attention to the dense forest behind, where he sensed a top-level youkai secretly watching them.

Is it really a trap!

The corners of Inuyasha's mouth skimmed an arc, and in the battle with Naraku, he had encountered traps ten times more vicious and insidious than this. The current trap is like a pediatric trap for them, especially if they are already alert.

The current Inuyasha and his party, their comprehensive strength and intelligence are not comparable to the team that relies on blood and luck in the original book. Izumo, who doesn't know the inside story, also uses the same means as in the original book to approach Inuyasha and them, and is destined to hit his head and bleed.

"I learned a lot about it in order to become a clergyman, but it didn't take long for me to get bored with it and travel around looking for new things to learn!"

"That's why you left the shrine! So what's the fake of the Four Souls Jade you just mentioned, and what else is that...... Is there a monster that can make the Jade of the Four Souls? ”

The priest who took the initiative to leave the shrine again, Inuyasha was the first time he had seen it. And the most important thing is that although this guy is indeed wearing a priest's costume, and his reasons are very good, he doesn't have any spiritual power, except for the faint demonic aura, he is simply an ordinary human with no power to restrain the chicken. If what he said was true, then he was so lucky that he was still alive and well, dressed in a priest's costume and still traveling around. Don't forget, 50 years ago, Inuyasha accompanied Kikyo on his travels around the world.

Robbers, bandits, rebels, monsters, all kinds of dangers are everywhere, and he doesn't believe that this guy is so lucky every time, and every time he encounters danger, someone like them happens to run into him. Kagome: It's okay if they don't have this experience, Inuyasha's 200 years of wandering is no joke.

"Hmmm! My main research is the Jade of the Four Souls."

"That's why I know about the Jade of the Four Souls!"

Hearing Izumo's explanation, Coral suddenly said that except for Inuyasha and Maitreya, who already knew the plot in advance, everyone else accepted this explanation, but when they saw that Inuyasha still did not regain his usual demeanor after hearing Izumo's explanation, they also felt a little wrong.

"Pretending that nothing happened, there is a top monster hiding in the dark and peeping at us, it is estimated that it should be related to this guy, keep a normal attitude, and see what conspiracy this guy has!"

Kagome could feel the change in Inuyasha, and Inuyasha could naturally clearly sense Kagome's movements, and immediately sent a voice to everyone to secretly command. Before the matter is investigated, you can't act rashly, although with Inuyasha's strength is very light, you can take out Izumo and the youkai hiding in the shadows. However, when he heard that he could make the Jade of the Four Souls, he had already developed a strong interest in it, and if he guessed correctly, the one who made the Jade of the Four Souls should be Izumo who studied the Jade of the Four Souls!

Youkai can make the Jade of the Four Souls, don't laugh!

The fake just now couldn't even compare to the real Four Souls Jade Fragment, and it was even a one-time consumable, once the power inside was consumed, it would disappear cleanly.

"Not bad!"

Izumo didn't seem to see the flaws in Inuyasha, and looked at the plastic bottle in his hand for a while, and only slowly came back to his senses after a while, and explained lightly.

"According to Shinto, all creatures in this world have four souls!"

"Brave Desolate Soul! Kiss and soul! Soul of Wisdom! Love's Soul! It's these four, and when these four come together, they become hearts! We all know these things, and it's more useful to say something, those monsters just now said that the Jade of the Four Souls was obtained from a certain monster? Also, why is he chasing you! ”

Listening to Izumo's nagging, Inuyasha became a little impatient. They had already heard Cuizi directly say these things. Inuyasha is now concerned about the Jade Forge of the Four Souls. If it is really possible to create a method for the Jade of the Four Souls, then with the strength of Inuyasha, Tsuiko and Kikyo, it may not be impossible to create the real Jade of the Four Souls.

Tsuiko is not Izumo, and Inuyasha and Kikyo are not the kind of miscellaneous youkai that can be compared.

"Now that you all know! Then I won't be ugly! The Jade of the Four Souls possessed by that youkai was indeed created by the youkai, and the reason why I was hunted down was probably because I accidentally discovered what they were doing! ”

Izumo finally got to the point.

"I was looking for the village that produced the story of the Jade of the Four Souls, and while walking along the mountain path, I accidentally got lost!"

"That's when I saw it! A monster distributed the same jade of the four souls to the other monsters just now, and said that although it was not completed yet, the power of these jade of the four souls was already comparable to the real jade of the four souls! ”

Izumo slowly told his experience one by one, and in the process of telling, the expression on his face was always calm, as if the person who was hunted down just now was not himself.

"Can you take us there! If there are really monsters, or monsters with the jade fakes of the Four Souls, then it's best to get rid of them all, otherwise I'm afraid that they will be in danger to the nearby villages! Calamus, is there any human habitation in this area? ”

Regardless of whether Izumo's words are true or not, one thing is certain, that is, there is indeed a fake of the jade of the four souls, although the strength is not as good as the real jade fragment of the four souls, but for those low-level monsters, the improved demon power is also considerable, and ordinary humans may not have much power to resist against these monsters with the jade of the four souls.

"Well, go north along the post where we rested last night, through a valley in Guò, there is a village, I also stayed there for a while three days ago, so I remember it very well!"

Calamus came back immediately, she wasn't stupid either, from Inuyasha and Kagome's reactions, plus she had just cleaned up the area three days ago, she was already convinced that this human named Izumo was probably not just a traveling priest as he said, and like Inuyasha, at such a close distance, she could also smell the faint demonic aura emanating from Izumo's body. It's not acquired, but a faint smell that it has had for a long time.

"It turns out that there is a village around here, so let me take you to the place where I found the monster!"

After hearing Calamus's words, a subtle look of surprise flashed on Izumo's face, and then he quickly reined in and took the lead in getting up and walking towards the place where he said he had found the youkai.

"Oh no, I just came out in a hurry, and something was forgotten at the station! Kagome, you guys go over first, I'll go back to the station! ”

Seeing Izumo get up and lead the way, Inuyasha suddenly shouted in annoyance, and at the same time transmitted a voice to everyone.

(I'm going to get rid of the youkai hiding in the shadows, and Izumo's identity must know that.) Calamus, if Izumo has a problem, just capture him alive, and with your strength, you should be able to do it very easily! )

"Oh...... Well! Got it, Inuyasha you're so careless that you always forget jì things! ”

Kagome immediately cooperated and complained about Inuyasha, and the others nodded knowingly, understanding Inuyasha's meaning, and then immediately followed Izumo.

"Then next!"

Inuyasha turned around and ran directly in the direction of the station, and sure enough, the top youkai that sensed it immediately chased after Kagome and them after seeing that he had really left.

"Humph!"

Inuyasha, who sensed the position of Kagome and the top youkai at any time, disappeared in place the moment the youkai left, intercepting the top youkai in the middle of the way, without using iron broken teeth or divine power, just with the power of the flesh, Inuyasha easily knocked out the youkai who was also wearing a priest's costume, and captured it alive in one fell swoop.

When the power reaches a certain level, all conspiracies will become a joke.

"Huh! What about Inuyasha-sama! ”

On the other side, seeing that there was no Inuyasha among the people who came up, Izumo immediately asked suspiciously.

"Ahh Inuyasha, he left something in the inn where we rested last night! Really, he's usually so careless, and most of the things have to be taken by a few of us girls, which is very hard! ”

Kagome immediately returned with a wry smile and pointed to the bulging schoolbag on her and Fence's bike rack. The others nodded approvingly.

"After all, Inuyasha's strength is the strongest among us, and it's not a big problem to forget anything occasionally, Kagome, just bear with it!"

"That guy is a canine monster, it's a strange thing to be so careful!"

After both Coral and Maitreya spoke, the doubts on Izumo's face finally receded. Relieved, he immediately pointed to a clearing in the valley ahead and shouted, where he said he had found the Youkai trading the Jade of the Four Souls.

"yes, that's really hard! Well, it's ahead! ”A
