Zongman, starting from picking up Yuyuko

"If it wasn't true, I wouldn't have come here. I know, Kikyo, you definitely don't believe what I said, but I don't believe it myself either. After all, I don't have any memories of this period, and this is my first time coming here fifty years ago."

"I thought I could find the answer by going back fifty years as you said, but that's not the case, because you didn't know me at all fifty years ago."

Hayami Yu sighed helplessly. He had thought that there should have been another self fifty years ago, otherwise this matter would not make sense, but the reality was that there was no such person. This was very strange.

"If I hadn't seen you talking nonsense earlier, then this matter is indeed quite incredible. But if it is true, I think there must be some reason for it."

"Everything has a beginning and an end. Since the starting point was fifty years ago, perhaps the time for you to get the answer has not come yet."

Kikyo answered after a moment's thought, then she continued walking forward, then turned around and said to Hayami Yu with a smile.

"Although I still don't believe you came back after fifty years, if you want to stay, I won't chase you away. You can use that room as you please."

"I see. I'll stay for a while, thank you."

Hayami Yu thanked him and the topic ended there, but as the two of them started talking, Hayami Yu also took the opportunity to have a good conversation with Kikyo.

During the communication, he also learned that Kikyo was not currently entrusted with the task of guarding the Four Souls Jade. At the same time, Kikyo also learned that Hayami Yu did not just come back after fifty years, but also after five hundred years.

"By the way, Hayami, will there still be monsters in the era five hundred years from now?"

Kikyo suddenly became curious about this matter, and Hayami Yu immediately answered her when she heard it.

"Yes, and there are not only monsters, but also evil spirits. However, compared to the Warring States period, there are fewer monsters, but more evil spirits."

"Evil spirits?... It seems these monsters will never completely disappear, no matter what era it is."

Evil spirits are essentially not much different from monsters, and can even be said to be a branch of monsters. Evil spirits formed by resentment were also called monsters in the Warring States Period. They are called evil spirits in modern times, but the reason is that the names are different in the two eras.

At this point, the two of them arrived at the commissioned location. After asking around a bit, they also learned about the farmer's house where the monster appeared.

"Lord Kikyo, please help us. This monster has appeared for several days, and yesterday it ate our livestock!"

Seeing the legendary shrine maiden coming, the farmers immediately began to beg. When Kikyo heard this, she nodded and said it was okay.

"Don't worry, just leave it to us. Also, please stand back to avoid being hurt by the monster."

"By the way, Hayami, could you please help me guard the back door?"

Kikyo immediately called out to Hayami Yu. She had asked on the way here and learned that Hayami Yu was also a very powerful Onmyoji.

Since he came here with her, Kikyo naturally hoped that he could help her.

"give it to me."

Hayami Yu headed the bow, then asked the three-tailed fox to go to the back door. She knew that the Onmyoji's method was to drive the Shikigami, so she was not surprised that Hayami Yu could summon the Shikigami.

"grateful."

The three-tailed fox went to the back door, and Kikyo thanked him. After that, Kikyo immediately took out the bow and arrow on her back and entered the yard, followed closely by Hayami Yu.

When she came here, she felt a strong demonic aura. It was obvious that this monster should be a strong one.

But it’s no problem. To her, the monster’s strength is not that strong.

boom!

As soon as the two entered the yard, the monster hiding under the house sensed the powerful spiritual power appearing in the yard and broke through the house and came out.

In an instant, a gigantic snake demon appeared before their eyes. Even when it was coiled on the ground, its upper body alone was three meters tall!

At this moment, it was spitting out its tongue, and its bright red eyes instantly glowed red after seeing Hayami Yu and Kikyo.

For monsters, eating humans with strong spiritual power can strengthen themselves. Therefore, many monsters will treat witches and wizards as food.

"This, this, this... is this the monster?"

At the same time, after seeing the monster in front of him, the farmer who had been outside the yard suddenly collapsed to the ground with his eyes wide open.

They felt it was a snake demon from the beginning, but they didn't know that the snake demon had grown so big that it was as thick as the water tank in their home!

Moreover, they have been sleeping in there for the past few days. When I think of them, I feel a lingering fear, as if I had a close brush with death.

At the same time, Kikyo did not expect that the snake demon was so big. She quickly drew her arrow and prepared to shoot the magic-destroying arrow.

Seeing this, the snake demon in front of him immediately attacked Kikyo and Hayami Yu.

The huge snake head quickly opened, revealing its fangs, and with a roar, it rushed directly towards Kikyo!

Hayami Yu quickly raised his hand, and the spiritual power in his body burst out, forming a barrier to block Kikyo. Kikyo had also completed the preparation of the bow and arrow at this time, and immediately shot the magic-breaking arrow in his hand!

In an instant, powerful spiritual power spread from the arrow, forming a fierce attack that flew towards the snake demon at the speed of light.

The advantage of its huge size is that it is easier to hit. In addition, it was rushing towards the two of them. The next second, the Demon-Destroying Arrow accurately hit the snake demon's head, destroying it from head to tail.

The battle ended quickly, and Kikyo breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the snake demon die and disappear.

"Lord Kikyo, thank you!"

Seeing the snake demon dead, the farmer immediately came to the two of them with some gifts to express his gratitude.

But after all, they were just ordinary farmers, and all they could offer were some radishes and the like. However, Kikyo did not accept these things because in her opinion, exterminating monsters was the duty of a shrine maiden and should not be used to make money.

"No, see you soon, let's go."

"Ah."

Kikyo looked back at Hayami Yu and said, then immediately walked back the way she came, but no one knew that she was feeling a little happy at the moment.

Because Kikyo had never experienced the feeling of fighting monsters with someone else, this first time she felt it was much easier than usual.

Although this monster is not strong, she is still a human being after all. Facing such a huge monster, she will be injured if she is not careful.

But this time it was solved very easily. She knew that this was thanks to Hayami Yu. At the moment when the snake demon attacked, he used the barrier technique to resist the first wave of attacks from the snake demon.

Thinking of this, Kikyo immediately thanked Hayami Yuu who was standing next to her.

"Good morning, thank you."

"Nothing, after all, my job is to exterminate monsters."

Hayami Yu answered with a smile, and then the two of them quickly returned to the village. Feng had been waiting outside the door at this time. When she saw the two of them come back, she immediately stepped forward and asked.

"Sister, are you hurt?"

"Sister is fine, Feng, don't worry." Kikyo replied immediately.

"Really? I'm glad you're okay."

Feng felt relieved and looked at Hayami Yu. However, he didn't look injured, so he shouldn't be. But she still asked with concern.

"Where's Morning?"

"Injured? How is that possible? It's just a little monster, Grandma Feng, are you looking down on me?"

Hayami Yu teased her deliberately, and Feng was instantly furious when she heard the name again.

"I told you not to call me grandma. I'm only nine years old!"

Feng pouted and complained cutely. Hayami Yu squatted down and pinched her face, then immediately replied with a smile.

"But in fifty years you will indeed be an old woman."

"Everyone will be an old woman in fifty years. Even my sister will become an old woman!"

"Your sister never ages."

Hayami Yu blurted out subconsciously and smiled, but he regretted it right after he said it, because this sentence undoubtedly revealed something.

When Kikyo heard this, she was also surprised and immediately asked.

"See you soon. Won't I be old in fifty years?"

"..."

Hayami Yu didn't know what to say for a moment, because he couldn't possibly say that you won't live to see fifty years from now, right?

"No, how could that be? I said the wrong thing. Your sister will definitely be old in fifty years, and so will I. Okay, I'm going out for a while."

Hayami Yu gave a dry laugh and immediately changed the subject, taking the opportunity to leave.

Kikyo looked at Hayami Yu's back and felt something was wrong, although she did not believe that Hayami Yu had come back after fifty years.

But what if, what if he really came back from fifty years later, then wouldn’t his words explain a lot?

And it won't age, which means two possibilities.

One, or she turned into a monster and thus remained forever young.

Second, she wouldn't even live to see fifty years from now.

There are only two situations in which you will not grow old, so which of the two possibilities is it?

Kikyo didn't know, but by the process of elimination, she didn't believe that she would become a monster, so there was only one possibility left.

She wouldn't live past fifty.

……

……

(ps, finished writing after checking the spot.)

110 She thought for a moment

"elder sister?"

Seeing Hayami Yu leave, Feng immediately asked Kikyo for help, because in her opinion, she didn't understand why Hayami Yu wanted to leave, but she thought it was because she said something wrong that caused Hayami Yu to leave.

"Feng, could you please help me steam a pot of rice? Don't worry, Zao Jian is not angry. Just wait for us at home."

"Well, I see."

Feng nodded and immediately went to the kitchen to steam rice.

Kikyo looked at Hayami Yu who was gradually disappearing in the distance, thought for a moment, then picked up her bow and arrow and followed him.

Although she had already guessed the answer, she still wanted to hear Hayami Yu admit it with her own ears. After all, this matter was no trivial matter. If she really couldn't live to see the end of fifty years for some reason, she didn't dare to imagine how her sister would live alone.

......

......

At the same time, after Hayami Yu left, he quickly went into the forest, both to avoid Kikyo's questions to him and to improve the food for the two sisters by hunting.

After all, Kikyo is very kind. She never asks for anything in return every time she exorcises a demon. Even if the other party offers something, she will not accept it. This results in their meals being very ordinary. Otherwise, Feng would not deliberately go to the forest to find mushrooms for Kikyo to make soup.

"Three-tailed Fox, Yao Dao Ji, Huang Quan, could you please search for the small animals nearby? I plan to improve the food for Kikyo and the others."

"We understand. See you soon, sir."

The three nodded, and then immediately set out to search. After the three left, Hayami Yu asked her other Shikigami to conduct a large-scale search. This large-scale use of Shikigami naturally also showed Kikyo the way.

Because after the monster signs a contract with the Onmyoji, it no longer uses its own demonic power, but the spiritual power of its master. Naturally, the more it uses, the more traces it leaves behind.

So, Kikyo followed the remaining spiritual power of Hayami Yu all the way and soon came to the depths of the dense forest. At the same time, she also saw Hayami Yu facing a wild boar that was half a meter tall.

He ordered many Shikigami to surround the wild boar, intending to capture it alive if possible, but a beast is a beast after all, it only needs to think about how to survive, and will not stop easily even if it is injured.

Therefore, it ran around in the encirclement of the Shikigami and finally broke through and got out.

But at this moment, Kikyo quickly drew her bow and shot an arrow, which directly hit the ankle of the fleeing wild boar.

"good chance!"

Hayami Yu shouted and immediately rushed forward to tie up the wild boar's limbs with ropes.

Seeing that the hunting was over, Kikyo quickly put away the second arrow from her bow and walked over. As she approached, the shikigami around her quickly followed Hayami Yu's wishes and disappeared, leaving only Kikyo and Hayami Yu.

"Kikyo, let me make it clear first, I won't answer any of your questions."

She followed, no doubt because of the previous question, and Hayami Yu answered her while tying the wild boar more securely with a wooden stick.

"I'm not asking. I just want to know, did you really come from fifty years later? How is Feng?"

What a good one not to ask, but are the two questions asked different from hers? Hayami Yu was a little helpless and could only reveal a little to her.

"Your sister is much more comfortable than you. After you left, she inherited everything you had and became the village's miko. Although she's not as strong as you, she's more than capable of handling daily needs. That's why I call her Grandma Kaede."

Hayami Yu answered, and Kikyo felt relieved after hearing this, because this meant that Kaede could live after her death.

But this man really has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. He clearly said he would not answer, but in the end he answered her. Thinking of this, Kikyo couldn't help but chuckle.

Seeing her laugh a few times, Hayami You didn't say much. He just asked two little monsters to come out to help him carry the wild boar, and then walked towards the village.

Kikyo followed behind all the way, and seeing that Hayami Yuma didn't tell her what she was thinking, she took the initiative to ask.
