Crash.

Accompanied by the sound of water, the mountain spring water flows into the shrine along the bamboo pipes.

Platycodon platycodon held a wooden basin in her hand, facing the exit of the bamboo pipe, and filled it with cold mountain spring water.

Although what Luo Shu was talking about was bathing, what Kikyo wanted to do at this time was not what ordinary people would call bathing, but a witch's purification ceremony.

Generally speaking, after killing the monster, Kikyo will take time to perform a ritual.

Its purpose is, on the one hand, to remove the unclean air from the body; on the other hand, it also uses the cold stimulation of the body to temporarily enhance spiritual power and see through illusions.

Platycodon platycodon stretched out her hand to the white salt on the small plate beside her, grabbed a handful, and sprinkled it into the clear mountain spring water.

Then take a deep breath, pick up the wooden basin, and pour it down directly from the neck.

The rushing water poured down, and the coldness of the mountain spring water dispersed the body temperature of Platycodon grandiflorum, and turned the plain white kimono into a transparent color.

When the water drained away, Platycodon platycodon silently filled the empty tub with water, sprinkled it with salt, and poured it over her body again.

After repeating this, Platycodon stood up after washing himself. Wearing dripping clothes, Platycodon entered the back room on the side.

When Kikyo appeared in the shrine corridor again, she had already put on a neat miko uniform with white top and red bottom, her hair was tied up with a plain white cloth band, and she walked into the shrine hall.

I don't know when, Luo Shu was already sitting in the main hall of the shrine, looking at the statue of the god standing above him. Even when Kikyo arrived, he just turned his head and glanced at it before moving away.

"What are you looking at?"Jie Jie looked at Luo Shu with a cold face, with a little doubt in her eyes.

"Is the god enshrined in this shrine Inari God?"

Luo Shu sat on the wooden floor of the main hall of the shrine, looking up at the statue of a woman who could only be judged by her body curves.

There was a fox mask on the statue's face, and there were five or six foxes around its feet. In Shintoism, this should be a statue of the Inari god, symbolizing good harvests and other good meanings.

However, to Luo Shu's surprise, Platycodon took one look at the statue and calmly replied:

"I have no idea."

Hearing this, Luo Shu was stunned for a moment and said in surprise:

"Aren't you the shrine maiden of this shrine? Why don’t you even know who the main god you worship is?"

"There is no point in knowing."

Platycodon platycodon's jade feet covered with white foot bags stepped on the wooden board. She picked up the bow and arrow leaning on the pillar nearby, took off the crude arrow, bent the bow and nocked the arrow.

Then, a sound of wind sounded.

The crude arrow The arrow slid through a white curve in the air, bursting into the distance with a dazzling white light.

Luo Shu followed the direction of the arrow and saw a demon bird dodging in the sky outside the door. He was hit by an arrow and let out a shrill scream, and then was wiped out invisible in the air.

Killed the demon bird in the sky., Platycodon put down her bow and said calmly:

"The gods will not protect the villagers, but will continue to ask for sacrifices from the villagers."

"To learn about the gods, it is better to learn more about herbal medicine. At least the herbal medicine will be useful to the villagers."

"For a miko, this was truly a rebellious statement. Luo

Shu sighed upon seeing this, then looked at the sky outside the palace door and said:

"Are there many monsters here every day?"

Platycodon nodded when he heard the words, and then glanced at Luo Shu:

"The shrine has a barrier I set up, and you are very strong, many monsters are no match for you."

Jiejie is telling the truth.

She has just taken a bath, and a large part of the reason is that she hopes to enhance her spiritual power and see through Luo Shu's face under the shadow.

However, even so, Kikyo can only be sure that Luo Shu is a human being, except for In addition, her body and soul are extraordinarily powerful, even surpassing her, and the rest cannot be seen.

Therefore, apart from confirming that Luo Shu is a very powerful mage, nothing gained from this ceremony.

Hearing this, Luo Shu But he took the initiative to mention:"The fluctuation in the statue is the Jade of the Four Souls, right?"

Jiejie stared at Luo Shu's face.

At this time, Luo Shujing explained: (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"The Jade of the Four Souls, a jade formed by the souls of both parties condensing under special circumstances after Cuizi, the strongest shrine maiden in the Warring States Period, fought against ten thousand monsters. It has a powerful reinforcing effect on monsters."

"As far as I know, it was the villagers of the Demon Slayer Village who gave this gem to you, who is known as the strongest shrine maiden in Musashi Country. They hope that you, who has the power of purification, can purify it."

"It's just that I'm curious as to why you accepted such a thankless job."

"If you accept the Shikon Jade, you will be chased by monsters all the time, and it may even affect Maple Village."

"But you chose to accept this task, maintain it, and spend your spiritual energy to set up a barrier in Maple Village, and live in a shrine outside the village, constantly exterminating demons every day, and living this life with no end."

"Are you the kind of awkward character who has to sacrifice yourself to see the happiness of others before you feel comfortable?"

Jiejie looked at Luo Shu at this time, her eyes seemed to be a little dissatisfied.

Then, she turned her head and said lightly:

"The daimyo exempted the village from taxes, and the village became a tax-free village."

"I see, I can understand that."Luo Shu suddenly had a look on his face.

No wonder Platycodon would choose to protect the Jade of the Four Souls, even if he was hunted by monsters every year.

The village was exempted from taxes by the daimyo, and even the men were exempted from conscription. If this is the case Conditions, it’s no wonder that Kikyo, who was born in Maple Village, would agree.

After all, this is something that is beneficial to the village and everyone in his hometown. Although the risk is high, the danger of paying taxes in 853 and sending his family to military service is better than being attacked by monsters. Not much lower.

However, this is a bit too hard for Platycodon grandiflorum.

Thinking of this, Luo Shu sighed:"Don't you think it's too hard?"

"What is suffering?"Jikyo turned her head curiously.

"......"

Luo Shu was suddenly speechless. After a moment of silence, he said:

"Do you mind letting me try handling the Shikon Tama?"

"Although I am a bit boastful, I am quite experienced in dealing with this kind of weird props."

"mind."

Platycodon's cold words made Luo Shu couldn't help but laugh.

"That's right. I have to take away your most precious thing as soon as I come here. It would be weird if you don't mind."

"After all, you can't guarantee whether my goal will be to seize the Four Souls Jade from the beginning."

Seeing that the Jade of Four Souls was out of action for the time being, Luo Shu did not force it. He stood up, patted his pants, shook off the dust, and said to Platycodon grandiflorum:

"Since we can't talk about it, can we talk about other things?"

"whats the matter?"Jie Jie asked in a calm tone.

At this time, Luo Shu looked into the distance, looked at the approaching figure, and immediately smiled:

"About my companion temporarily staying at the shrine"
