Swish! Swish! Swish!

Under Xia Ruo's swordsmanship, several little monsters were quickly dealt with by Xia Ruo.

These are the only monsters that broke into the village, and after being hacked to death by Xia Ruo, the village became safe for the time being.

Outside the village, there are still demon-breaking powers and Kikyo's arrows shining, and it seems that there are still some youkai outside the village that have not been dealt with by Kikyo.

For Kikyo, Xia Ruo is not very worried, there is no monster that can resist the power of breaking demons, I believe that Kikyo will not be able to come back in a long time.

Seeing that the monsters were all hacked to death by Xia Ruo, Kikyo's sister Kaede ran in front of Xia Ruo with an excited face.

"Brother Xia Ruo, why are you here, where have you been during this time, I haven't seen you for a long time," Feng was indeed very excited, and asked Xia Ruo several questions in a row.

It seems that her impression of Xia Ruo is really good, and the original snack strategy seems to be effective.

Kaede was dressed in dark coarse cloth, and her young eyes seemed to be shining, but her face was a little pale and pale, probably due to malnutrition.

"It's been a long time, Xiao Feng, I was busy for a while, so I didn't have time to come and see you," Xia Ruo stretched out his hand and gently touched Feng's little head, "I came to see you this time and brought you a lot of snacks." ”

"Great!"

Kaede is also a child no matter what he says, and when he heard that there were snacks, he immediately jumped up excitedly.

Xia Ruo took out some candy from his carry-on space and handed it to Kaede, which is also a must-have for things to make children happy.

As Xia Ruo thought, within a few minutes, Kikyo hurried back from outside the village, and after seeing that his sister and the village were fine, it was obvious that Kikyo breathed a sigh of relief.

Kikyo is still the same as ever, with long black hair, the expression on his face is as cold as ever, and the red and white witch costume has not changed for thousands of years.

It's just that after not seeing her for a while, Xia Ruo found that the bellflower now looks a lot haggard.

She also has a strong smell of blood on her body, and it seems that fighting monsters often is also a hard job for her.

After Kikyo returned to the village, he saw Xia Ruo standing at the entrance of the village, and he was also a little surprised that Xia Ruo appeared here.

"Xia Ruo, you're here."

"Kikyo, long time no see," Xia Ruo greeted Kikyo.

The so-called eating other people's soft mouths, Feng on the side also hurriedly said good things to Xia Ruo, "Sister Kikyo, there was a monster about to attack me just now, but fortunately, it was Brother Xia Ruo who saved me." ”

Hearing that Xia Ruo saved Kaede, Kikyo took a deep look at Xia Ruo and sincerely thanked Xia Ruo.

"Thank you."

"It's just a matter of effort."

"Thank you very much, if it weren't for you, Kaede might have had an accident today, you came this time, is there something wrong?" Kikyo's intuition told her that Xia Ruo would definitely not come for no reason.

"I remember, last time you seemed to be in trouble and needed my help, did you come to me now?"

What Kikyo said was when Xia Ruo went to Spirited Away, and at that time, Kikyo promised to help Xia Ruo solve trouble, but in the end it was not used.

"That, I've already solved that matter, this time, I'm just as a friend, just to take a look at you," Xia Ruo said with a smile.

In the face of this kind of problem of bellflowers, Xia Ruo will not say it honestly even if he has another purpose.

"Oh."

Kikyo responded, her expression was as cold as ever, which can be regarded as her character.

Hearing that Xia Ruo came to see him specifically, Kikyo was a little surprised, but he still nodded.

She doesn't have many friends, and if Xia Ruo can come to see her, although Kikyo doesn't show it on his face, he is still a little happy in his heart.

It's just that the village has just been attacked by youkai, and Kikyo's mood quickly drops.

"Xia Ruo, this time...... The village is badly damaged, and I may not be able to entertain you for a while, sorry. ”

Kikyo glanced at the village that had been attacked by youkai and said in a somewhat low tone.

Although only a few small monsters broke into the village, it was still a disaster for the small village.

Several villagers' houses were knocked down by youkai in the village, and several villagers were injured, although no one died, but for a small village of more than 100 people, it was a heavy loss.

Kikyo goes to see the loss of the village, and Xia Ruo follows Kikyo.

"Kikyo-sama."

"Kikyo-sama."

……

Seeing the bellflower come back, those villagers greeted the bellflower respectfully, whether it was the elderly or children, they all had the same attitude towards the bellflower, and for ordinary people, the witches were all high.

"Hmm."

Kikyo nodded slightly, then asked, "How many people are injured." ”

"There are four of them, Kikyo-sama," a young man next to him replied respectfully to Kikyo.

"Take me there."

"Yes."

……

"This village doesn't look good," Xia Ruo thought to herself.

I didn't care about it before, but now Xia Ruo found out that the environment where the bellflower is located is really too bad.

Xia Ruo followed behind Kikyo all the way, observing this small village, although the environment of this small village is good, in modern times, it is definitely a paradise, but the shortcomings are also obvious, that is, it is too poor.

He had traveled with Tsubaki for a period of time during the Warring States Period, and the village where Kikyo was located was considered a relatively poor village even in the Warring States Period, when there were constant wars.

The villagers are also yellow and thin-skinned, all of them are malnourished, even if they are young people, their height is not very high, and the expressions on their faces are very heavy, and they seem to be living a very difficult life.

Moreover, this village is often attacked by youkai, and there is no source of income to increase, and it is natural that life will not be very good only by farming.

Kikyo quickly found the injured villagers.

The injured villagers were arranged together and waited for the treatment of Kikyo, and there was naturally no such talent as a doctor in such a poor village.

As a shrine maiden, Kikyo knows some healing skills, so she usually deals with injuries in the village.

"Kikyo-sama."

When several wounded people saw Kikyo coming, they all greeted Kikyo respectfully.

"Don't worry, I'll heal you," Kikyo tried to soothe the wounded.

"Thank you, Kikyo-sama."

"It's fine."

Facing the wounded, Kikyo's face softened, and he took the medicine box that had just been taken by Kaede, and began to use medicine to bandage the injured.

And Xia Ruo stood aside, quietly watching this scene.

His gaze had just swept over the wounded, two minor injuries, which seemed to hurt their arms, and two serious injuries, and he didn't know if they were injured by youkai or smashed by a collapsed house.

The four wounded, all young people.

Xia Ruo glanced at the surrounding villagers a little, the expressions on their faces were a little gloomy, and there were several peasant women crying silently, probably the family members of these injured people.

This monster attack was a big blow to them.

Now is about the season of spring ploughing, and the injury of a few young and strong laborers is definitely a heavy blow to a family.

Xia Ruo set his eyes on the bellflower, and at this time, the bellflower was still engrossed in bandaging the injured.

"Kikyo hasn't realized yet? Her presence is actually a drag on this small village. ”
