Platycodon platycodon covered the basket again and said calmly.
"Let's come together. There seems to be no monsters on the top of the mountain here." Gu Mo looked at the sky, then stood up and patted the grass clippings and dust on his body.
The witch glanced at him calmly and said nothing. She just turned around and walked slowly towards the village. As he was already familiar with Kikyo's behavior, Gu Mo didn't take it seriously and followed him naturally.
After a distance of three or two bodies, they walked in tandem towards the village.
Unknowingly, the sun began to tilt slightly to the west from its highest point. Although it was not obvious yet, it also meant that it had passed the noon time and began to transition to the afternoon. It seemed that half a day passed like this, and he seemed to
Nothing was done.
While feeling relaxed, he also felt an inevitable sense of anxiety.
It’s not that I feel like I’m wasting my time, but that I feel that I’ve accomplished nothing and that I haven’t made any substantial progress... Of course, I’m not talking about grinding monsters and gaining experience. Gu Mo is not so careless in this matter.
Don't worry, what he is really struggling with is actually Platycodon.
After quickly glancing at the miko in front of him, he withdrew his gaze and sighed inwardly.
Unlike Hidechiyo who was so easy to hug in the past, it is now difficult for Kikyo to join the team. Hidechiyo didn't want to join the world at first, purely because he was used to a solitary life. It was just because of habit. Otherwise, it would not have been possible.
Will be easily persuaded and embark on the road of sweeping the Warring States Period.
But Kikyo is different. Her current mentality is obvious...escape.
Just like an ostrich, there is a sense of deception, thinking that this village can accommodate her, and intends to live here forever as peacefully as before, no longer caring about things outside... no matter what she can't let go of
The Jade of Four Souls is still an extremely resentful person.
If it is possible, such a peaceful life may be regarded as a kind of compensation for her fate...
But this is impossible. After all, the tree wants to be still but the wind is not stopping. The Four Souls Jade is a huge whirlpool that no one can stay out of, let alone someone like her who is directly involved in the causal relationship. The fate of Heyu is destined to never end.
As long as you are still in this world, you cannot escape this fate even if you die...
emmmmm...as long as you are still in this world.
Gu Mo seemed to have thought of something, and raised his eyes to look at the back of the witch in front of him, a strange light flashed in his eyes.
"What's the matter?"
Because the inspiration is too sharp, even normal sensory perception is only at the level of ordinary people. However, Kikyo still stood in front of her for the first time, turned around and looked at someone behind her, she frowned lightly
Eyebrow: "Is there something you want to tell me?"
"I have something I want to tell you..."
Gu Mo's expression remained unchanged, and various thoughts were spinning rapidly in his mind. On the surface, he looked like he was thinking seriously and considering it carefully.
"Tell me about it..." Kikyo said calmly, and then saw his hesitant look. After thinking for a moment, he seemed to have thought of something, "Do you want to leave?"
Gu Mo blinked and nodded: "We have such a plan. Recently, the number of monsters coming to the village has gradually decreased. There are not as many as the past few days. The aura of jade can be detected nearby.
The monsters from all over the world have probably come to give them away..."
He planned to test Kikyo's thoughts first.
Is this really what happened? The miko still frowned slightly. She didn't want to leave the village, but it was hard to just watch this person leave with the fragments of the Four Souls Jade while she did nothing... But she could do it
What? She couldn't ask the other party to hand over the fragments, let alone claim to take them herself.
Firstly, she was subconsciously escaping. She always wanted to stop caring about the Four Souls Jade. She always felt that once she took the initiative to intervene, it would be equivalent to denying her original idea and exposing her own evasive mentality;
It's because of her personality that she is too reasonable and principled, and her demands on herself are too high.
Just as Gu Mo thought before, his current relationship positioning towards the witch is very subtle——
They are not enemies, so they cannot take action; but they are not yet friends, so they cannot make demands.
"..."
"..."
The witch was obviously deep in thought, and Gu Mo didn't say anything, just waiting patiently. He originally wanted to see the other party's current considerations and plans, and see if there was a chance to abduct the person... He did not deny that he
There are selfish motives, and how can people not be selfish?
"...Are you going to look for other Four Soul Jade?" After thinking seriously for a while, Kikyo asked slowly.
"It depends on the situation. If we meet it by chance..." Gu Mo shook his head. He didn't have a particularly strong idea about the Jade of Four Souls. Moreover, this thing was broken into countless pieces. It only appeared in the plot.
There are twenty-two fragments, and those fragments that fell into Naraku's hands without appearing are even more unknown.
It seems like there are quite a lot, but when scattered across the land of various countries, the density is particularly terrible. Searching for them is like looking for a needle in a haystack... He doesn't have the time of the protagonist group, and if he really wants to search for treasures specifically,
, there are many things better than the Shikon Jade fragments.
It’s not that the Four Souls Jade is bad, but unless all the fragments are collected and turned into a complete version, it will indeed not be as good as those equally outrageous treasures... It’s just as troublesome to find the whereabouts, and most of them are just like the Four Souls.
Like jade fragments, it is difficult for him to find them.
Even if he has an impression of the plot, the plot is not equal to a specific map. He has no way to find the corresponding location in the real world based on the picture in his mind.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
For example, he knows the existence of Maple Village and knows many things that have happened in Maple Village, but...where is Maple Village specifically? He has never been there, so he really only knows the existence of such a place, but...
I don’t know where it exists.
This is a very tangled matter. Even if it is the Congyun Tooth, Gu Mo clearly knows that it is lying in the ancestral hall of Higurashi Kagome's house gathering dust, but he doesn't know where the Maple Village is, and he can't find the Bone-eating Village.
Well, so I can only think about it.
The miko lowered her eyes slightly. The other party did not explicitly refuse, which meant that she would still look for the fragments of the Shikon Jade.
"It's best not to do this. Each additional fragment of the Four Souls Jade will bring stronger power, and similarly... once their pollution intensifies, the backlash you will have to bear will be heavier." p>
She said this softly, then raised her eyes and looked directly at the young man opposite.
The person on the other side also nodded slightly: "I know this...but in fact, Kikyo, you should also understand that the fragments of the Four Souls Jade will attract each other. Even if I don't look for other fragments, they will definitely
Someone comes to the door with other fragments, even if I stay in this village and don't go out, it will be the same."
This time I finally didn’t reply with just “Oh”.
The miko casually released her slender hands from squeezing the bow, but she couldn't help but feel slightly annoyed because of the other person's sharp words.
This is indeed the truth. Even if this person doesn't collect the fragments, there will definitely be other careerists who will collect them, and one day they will break the peace of this village...
"If you really can't let it go, how about we set off together, Platycodon? It just so happens that you can also purify the Jade of the Four Souls, so we can be partners. And in this case, it means that you are looking after the Jade, no?
Let its power be abused..."
At this time, Gu Mo spoke in a joking tone, and extended the invitation in a somewhat half-truthful manner.
He had carefully discerned the subtle expressions and changes in the eyes of the witch since just now. Although she still had a calm and cold look, he could clearly detect that her mood had fluctuated. Perhaps her original thoughts had been shaken. This should be
It was a good time, so he decisively sent out the invitation and clicked on the invitation to team up under the miko's ID.
This option is actually of no use. He has tried it many times. The judgment of team status is that the target intends to join his camp and fight side by side with him, and within a certain range, then the system will judge that he has joined the team.
.
But it doesn’t matter if it’s useful or not, at least it has a psychological effect, just like some people like to recite spells, set up magic circles, or burn incense and bathe when drawing cards, thinking that this will increase their luck and can enter the soul with one shot.
, single-draw SSR... Gu Mo also has the same mentality, hoping that with one click, Platycodon can join the team.
It's a pity that just like a person who has done a lot of useless work and the ship will sink when it is time to sink, the same is true for him.
"There's nothing I can't let go of!"
Hearing Gu Mo's words, the witch's face changed slightly. She said coldly, turned around and walked forward without stopping.
"..."
"..."
"...Are you angry?" Gu Mo put his fist on his chin and watched as Kikyo's back faded away. He was a little unsure. Although his words were a test, they shouldn't be too much.
Line, with Platycodon’s temperament, how can it be possible to get angry so easily?
Or...is she angry at herself?
…………
The rest of the journey was somewhat silent.
Gu Mo didn't know what to say, and the witch didn't seem to be interested in talking anymore. She didn't talk about the things she just discussed, and she didn't pay attention to whether he was leaving the village next... Although it seemed to be the same as usual.
The performance is the same, but the sense of alienation from others thousands of miles away seems to be more obvious.
What a mess...
But does Platycodon have such a weak side? She also wants to escape, deceive herself and others, and refuses to face reality...
With such thoughts swirling in his mind, Gu Mo sighed softly in his heart and gave up his unrealistic thoughts. Probably because he was not very hopeful in the first place, so he doesn't feel so disappointed now.
There are always some things that you can't do without force, so if you can't help it, just forget it.
I will set off in two days to see the world first and then see what I can do...
Thinking in his mind, Gu Mo calculated what he could do. Because he had the fragment of the Four Souls Jade on him, he might run into the protagonist group or Naraku when he wandered around, but it shouldn't be a big problem. Inuyasha estimated that at this time
I can't even hit the most basic "Wind Damage".
As for Naraku, he still has to hide his head and tail at the moment, because he has not collected many Jade fragments of the Four Souls, and his transformation has not been completed yet. He is not as arrogant as he will be in the future, and each of his clones can defeat the protagonist group.
I've been nearly wiped out many times, so it's probably not a big problem.
If that doesn't work, you can wait until night falls and have another fair showdown...
