Xia Ruo used the bag to put away the two pieces of meat that had been divided into two by himself, although it seemed that he was no longer moving, but he was still ready to take it back and purify the bellflower well, and it was reassuring to be completely wiped out.

Flying with Tom's stick, it didn't take long for Xia Ruo to return to the scene of the battle just now with two pieces of meat.

Seeing that Xia Ruo was back, Tsubaki immediately stepped forward to check if Xia Ruo was injured, and Kikyo looked at Tom curiously, this cute cat with no demon power, but it can fly in the air.

Kaede was a little bolder, and dared to go up and touch Tom's little head.

"Sister, do you want to touch it? This kitten's name is Tom, and he is very well-behaved, "Kaede just thought that Xia Ruo was flying with a broom, and she still thinks that Tom is just an ordinary cat.

"I don't need to."

Kikyo has long given up the hobby of a human girl.,Determined to be a witch.,Naturally, she won't make movements like a little girl.。

However, when Kikyo turned his head to look at the other side, there was silence for a moment.

……

"Why don't you chase after you alone, aren't you afraid of accidents? What if something really happens," Tsubaki's tone was a little reproachful.

"Don't underestimate me, I saved you at the hands of a monster at the time, you should know my level," Xia Ruo handed the bag in his hand to Tsubaki.

"This youkai just wanted to stir up a relationship between us, I brought its last corpse over and disposed of it for you, that youkai is really bad, and I want to frame Miss Tsubaki."

"Hmph," Tsubaki didn't even look at the bag handed to Xia Ruo, and directly the spiritual power in his hand exploded, and even the bag and the monster body inside were burned to ashes.

"Next time, remember to hide behind me and don't be reckless."

"Okay, I'll definitely listen to you next time."

Kikyo: "......"

Speechless looking at the sky.

At this time, Kaede's curious voice sounded, "Sister, what are you staring at the sky?" There's nothing in the sky. ”

"It depends on the weather."

"Oh."

……

After the illusion of the demon city was lifted, a city that was almost in ruins was revealed, and the miasma that had erupted before had destroyed everything in the city.

The day passed quickly, and by the evening it was almost dark, and there was no point in setting off at this time, so I had to look for a place to sleep at night.

Xia Ruo searched for a long time, but only found a house in front of him that looked quite complete, which looked like a nobleman's mansion.

Tsubaki and Kikyo and the other four people all chose to rest here for the night first.

Xia Ruo didn't look for any food, and directly took the pot and ingredients from his own space, mutton, fish balls, vegetables, mushrooms, etc., and made a pot of hot pot.

Because everyone is together, Xia Ruo also invited Kikyo and Kaede to eat together, and Tsubaki also agreed.

"You're welcome, it's all a specialty of my hometown, eat it, it's delicious," Xia Ruo gestured to Feng and asked the child to eat first.

Kaede just gently pinched the chopsticks, and immediately felt the taste stimulation.

"It's delicious."

"If it's delicious, eat more."

"Thank you, big brother," Kaede thanked as she ate.

Tsubaki and Kikyo still don't have much to say, but I feel that the-for-tat feeling between the two has been reduced a lot, at least much stronger than before.

There was no big contradiction between the two of them, Xia Ruo thought that he had just finished cooperating, and this time he had a hot pot, maybe it was an opportunity to reconcile.

In the original work, Tsubaki and Kikyo became enemies, mainly because of Tsubaki's problem as a villain, Tsubaki's unilateral jealousy of Kikyo, and at the same time, he wanted to get the Jade of the Four Souls to maintain a permanent face.

Kikyo is usually quite indifferent.,It's very cold when talking to Tsubaki.,It looks a bit like looking down on Tsubaki.。

However, Xia Ruo really felt that Kikyo might have looked down on Tsubaki at that time, after all, when the blackened Tsubaki cursed Kagome, the reincarnation of Kikyo fifty years later, Kikyo was in such a tone that you will definitely fail, and grabbed Tsubaki's hair with his hand.

Alas, the relationship between these two people is still somewhat complicated.

After this cooperation, Xia Ruo feels that Tsubaki doesn't have the kind of mind to be jealous of Kikyo, which is a good thing, as long as Tsubaki is not jealous, he will naturally not embark on the blackening path of the original.

has been in this world for so long, Xia Ruo really doesn't care about the plot of the original book anymore, it has nothing to do with him anyway.

Bonfire, hot pot, and shrine maidens, with these, Xia Ruo is already satisfied.

Eating hot pot with a bonfire, it really has a unique feeling, and in the later stages of eating, everyone's body is a little hot, although Tsubaki and Kikyo still haven't spoken, but I feel that the relationship has been narrowed a lot.

However, Tsubaki was eating, and suddenly began to pick up vegetables for Xia Ruo, and Tsubaki reached out and sandwiched a piece of mushroom that was about to be clamped by bellflower into Xia Ruo's bowl.

Well?

Xia Ruo was a little puzzled, the hot pot was almost finished, and you started to pick up vegetables for me?

"What's the matter, don't you like this?" After Tsubaki saw that she was picking up vegetables for Xia Ruo, Xia Ruo paused, so she looked at Xia Ruo and asked.

"I like to eat."

"Well, then you eat a little more."

After hearing that Xia Ruo liked it, Tsubaki began to pick up vegetables for Xia Ruo again.

What's going on? Xia Ruo suddenly felt that Tsubaki was a little different today, although the tone still looked similar to usual, but it was different, which Xia Ruo could clearly feel.

It was impossible for her to make a move to pick up vegetables before.

With the background of the bonfire, Xia Ruo could clearly see that Tsubaki's face was red tonight, and he didn't know if it was the reason for eating hot pot and fever, or something else.

Tsubaki kept giving Xia Ruo vegetables, and Xia Ruo ate them with his head bored.

"Boom!"

What was that?

Although it was very small, Xia Ruo's hearing became much stronger, and he just happened to hear a strange sound, and then looked in the direction where the sound came from.

It seems to have come from Kikyo.

Well? The sound just now, Xia Ruo guessed, may be the sound of clenching chopsticks or gritting teeth.

……

In fact, this battle with the monster Hotaru, not only is the relationship between Tsubaki and Kikyo better, but Tsubaki's feelings for Xia Ruo have also changed.

Especially when Xia Ruo had no evidence to prove that he killed a monster at that time, when Xia Ruo immediately expressed his trust in Tsubaki, the impact of this trust on Tsubaki was great.

Tsubaki used to be a shrine maiden who traveled on the tip of a knife, and she was alone along the way, fighting countless monsters, and seeing a lot of deception, betrayal, and lies, which made it difficult for her to understand what trust is.

Trust is too dangerous and too distant for her, and it is easy to become a great flaw.

It is precisely because of Tsubaki's lack of trust that when Xia Ruo believed in her at a critical moment, the touch of Tsubaki at that time was not weaker than Xia Ruo's constant companionship.

When eating hot pot with Xia Ruo at night, after the body heats up, combined with the bonfire and the inexplicable atmosphere, Tsubaki's inner emotions can no longer be suppressed.

Just tonight.

Tsubaki has made up some kind of determination.
