After saying that, Kagome turned around and left without hesitation. If she didn't leave, this guy's voice would probably call Grandma Kaede over.

Sure enough, not long after she left, she heard Inuyasha's unique loud voice, "You're kidding me!!"

The sound stirred up the birds on the tree, and they flew away.

The fire came and went quickly. Kagome's heart slowly calmed down after she left. She didn't dare to stay for long, because Inuyasha's voice made Grandma Kaede go and come back.

Since the Four Souls Jade was taken out of her body, the surrounding area began to become dangerous. Looking back on the past, there was an unstable masked member in the house who killed many policemen.

The well was not 100% safe. The hair of the reverse hair knot passed through it. It seemed that as long as the Four Souls Jade existed, it would never be completely safe.

She needed to become stronger.

Kagome always had a heart that wanted to become stronger, but unfortunately, things did not go as she wished. There were too many bumps and bumps on her way to growth. She was forced to grow up, and often needed the protection of others.

Without Inuyasha, it would be easy for her to be swallowed up in this forest with her current condition.

What she has to do now is to find Bailing Mountain while Naraku is not targeting her.

"Life is death, death is life. Purity is filth, filth is purity. Good is evil, evil is good."

Kagome murmured.

Everyone is a combination of good and evil. Shuigu couldn't accept killing to separate the evil thoughts. After becoming a flesh-and-blood bodhisattva, Baixinshangren couldn't stand the loneliness and pain and finally regretted it.

Kikyo... She was resurrected in the clay of hatred and resentment, and her kindness defeated the evil thoughts and became a saint.

Kikyo, Baixinshangren, and Shuigu have all made corresponding choices for their own morality and life.

Kagome also wanted to make some preparations before everything happened.

When passing by Grandma Kaede's village, Kagome hesitated and paused at the torii on the steps.

She had heard Grandma Feng tell her that it was the resting place of Kikyo, where her ashes were buried, and would be dug out and resurrected by Rito in the near future.

With the red shadow of the Torii reflected in her eyes, Kagome watched quietly.

"Master Feng, Inuyasha is resurrected, what should we do?"

"Yes, yes, what should we do?"

"He won't come to the village to destroy it again..."

"He's a half-demon..."

The villagers were terrified. Even after fifty years, many old people still remembered the tragic ending after the big fuss.

To them, Inuyasha's resurrection was more like the resurrection of an enemy.

After all, it was Master Kikyo who sealed him in the first place, who protected the village.

It was not impossible for Inuyasha to attack them first after his resurrection.

"Don't worry, with my sister's sealing arrow, he can't do anything even if he wakes up."

Grandma Feng comforted the villagers in a deep voice.

"What's more, my sister..."

The villagers fell silent, and did not say anything more. They dispersed with sighs.

Grandma Feng hunched her back and looked at the villagers who dispersed. She did not miss the complaints in some people's eyes.

"Hey... Fifty years have passed. Has anyone forgotten the blessing they once had?"

She did not blame them. People living in this era were too miserable. They were afraid of starvation, war, and monsters.

For a small village, being able to live every day was the greatest happiness.

"But Inuyasha woke up and said something incomprehensible. What a kid who looks like Kikyo's sister, talking nonsense. Really, he has been hanging on the tree for so long and nothing has happened to him. It seems that he has injured his brain."

Thinking of this, Grandma Feng slowly walked to Torii Mountain. On the mountain is Kikyo's grave. She often comes to see it. With the death of several old people who respected Kikyo in the past, few people come to pay homage.

Stepping over the steps little by little, Grandma Feng also saw something clearly from afar.

"Huh? Flowers?"

"Is it offered by the villagers?"

Grandma Feng put down the offerings in her hand, squatted down and stroked the purple flowers on the ground, and chuckled.

"Sister Kikyo, I was wrong."

"Someone is still thinking about you."

...

The sky gradually darkened. Kagome looked at the red clouds, pressed down the hat on her head, and covered her figure with a cloak. Time was tight, and she didn't bring much.

She exchanged some things with gold. It must be said that gold is hard goods no matter where it is.

"Huh, it's getting dark, I have to find a shrine to stay in."

Kagome knew very well what the Four Souls Jade on her body represented. When it was dark, monsters would appear, and her situation would become more dangerous.

Fortunately, Kagome saw a standard building Torii of a shrine from a distance.

She took a deep breath and stepped onto the stairs. The obscure feeling of the barrier made her pause for a moment, and then she walked up step by step.

When she slowly reached the door, she was alreadyThere were two shrine maidens and an old man waiting.

The old man was about fifty or sixty years old, wearing a hunting robe, and looked at Kagome vigilantly, "Young man, today's visit is over. It's getting dark, please leave quickly."

Kagome lifted the wide brim of her hat, revealing her face, and smiled, "Hello, sir. I'm traveling and passed by here and wanted to visit you. Please don't mind if I bother you."

As she said that, she took out a name card from her sleeve pocket and handed it over with both hands, "I'm really sorry to disturb you all."

The old man's expression eased a little, took the name card, opened it and took a look, his expression became cheerful, "So you are my colleague, please come in."

The two shrine maidens looked at each other in surprise, bowed their heads, and put down the talismans in their hands.

"Onmyoji, please come in."

Kagome nodded and stepped forward.

The old man's eyes passed through her cloak and fell on the coarse cloth that occasionally appeared with her steps. He quickly met Kagome's dark eyes, "...My name is Arakawa Ren. I wonder what school you belong to."

Oops, I forgot to introduce myself.

"Excuse me," Kagome said embarrassedly, "I am Higurashi... Li, I don't have a school, I just learned some Taoist techniques and went around to study."

Arakawa Ren laughed and said nothing more, "I see, it's late today, how about Higurashi take a rest first?"

"That's great." Kagome said gratefully.

The two of them discussed politely for a while. After entering the door, Kagome took off her cloak, put away her weapons, and sat on the couch.

Arakawa Ren looked at the bow and arrow several times, and his eyelids twitched.

The aura was just barely good, but it was just this exquisite... Whose little boy ran out to experience life?

Arakawa Ren's tone softened immediately, and he introduced the shrine maidens sitting on both sides of him, "These two are my daughters, Noriko and Genmi."

The two shrine maidens knelt down and bowed slightly.

Kagome returned the greeting. It was not the first time she had met a shrine maiden, but except for Grandma Kaede, it was the first time she had met a Sengoku shrine maiden in such a friendly manner.

Thinking of this, Kagome couldn't help but shed a tear for herself.
