While Gu Mo was thinking, the two people walking one behind the other had already seen the outline of the village from a distance.
In the crop fields in front of the village, many villagers were busy. Although they were exhausted and sweating profusely, they did not stop.
There are also a group of children running around in the fields, but they are not playing, but holding herbs in their arms. Most of them carry a bamboo basket on their back, which also contains these things... Platycodon grandiflorum
Her arrival changed a lot of things. She taught the children to identify herbal medicine and learn medical skills.
The adults in the village are also happy to see this happen, because these children are too young. Even if they go to the fields to help with farming, they cannot actually share too much work. It is better for them to learn from the witches and collect herbs.
Much easier, and it is also a material that the village urgently needs.
"Sister Platycodon..."
From afar, Xiaoye saw the two people coming back one after another at a glance. She ran over and ran over. The miko also showed a soft smile.
Xiao Ye happily raised a large handful of plants in her arms and asked the miko for credit. At the same time, she was also very happy to show off to the big brother behind her. Getting praise from the two people, even if it was just a few words, made her feel good.
He stood up and looked at the two people in front of him curiously.
As the village chief said, my sister and brother will always stay in the village, right? If that's the case, that would be great!
"Xiaoye, don't pick this herb yet. As I told you the day before yesterday, its flowers can be used, but this is not the time for it to bloom. It will take another two months..."
The witch whispered softly, and she stood on the spot and started teaching. She didn't feel the sense of alienation just now at all.
The little girl listened attentively, nodded in response, and the other friends also gathered around, listening attentively. Gu Mo couldn't help but curled his lips, this is
Treat them differently, this must be treated differently.
"Huh?"
Aware of the sight in the distance, he looked up and found two people dressed as wandering monks standing in the field at the entrance of the village. They were talking to the villagers working in the field. After receiving the answer, they also turned their heads.
Looking in this direction.
One is an older monk. He is looking here with a confused face, while the young monk next to him looks a little confused and doesn't know what is going on.
Here we go, today is the day...
Blinking his eyes, Gu Mo suddenly remembered who this old monk was. He was a master with good magic power. He could see the problem with Platycodon, but it was a pity that he overestimated his own magic power and underestimated the miko's.
When the magic power tried to forcibly transcend Platycodon grandiflorum, it was easily rebounded by the larger spiritual power...
It's just that the old monk refused to give up before he died, but perhaps it was his last words that made some changes in Platycodon's heart.
Later, the witch was alone again and embarked on a journey, which was not without the contribution of this old monk.
However, he is not actually a bad person. Gu Mo thought about it for a while and thought it would be better to drive the old monk away from the village by any means. Otherwise, he would not have enough magic power and want to meddle in his own business, and would eventually die on his own.
Under the spell.
Anyway, Kikyo doesn’t want to cause trouble, and she can use this to see if she can change the plot and gain some benefits at the same time.
"Xiaoye, let's go back to the village first and then talk."
At this time, Kikyo also noticed the two wandering monks in the village over there. She raised her delicate eyebrows imperceptibly, and then spoke calmly.
"Hmm..." The little girl and a group of half-grown children nodded repeatedly, and followed the witch toward the village.
Gu Mo followed without hesitation, but knew that this matter would not be avoided so easily. Kikyo did not want to have a meaningless conflict, but the master did not necessarily give up his idea. Although he did not look back, he could hear the sound behind him.
The sound of footsteps rushing to catch up.
"Please wait a moment, the two people in front..."
A slightly hoarse and aged voice came from behind.
Well, now I still have my own share...
Gu Mo stopped and looked at Platycodon in front of him. He also stopped and turned around. Both of them looked at the old monk who was catching up behind him. There were also a group of half-grown children around him, looking at this scene in confusion. p>
"What's the matter, Tu...ahem, Master?" Gu Mo asked first, his tone deliberately rude.
"Haha, the main reason is that I was traveling with my disciples and happened to pass by this place. I found that there is a gathering of evil spirits here, so I want to know something from you two... Has anything evil happened recently?"
The old monk said with a smile, looking sharply at the man and woman opposite him, and he had an idea in his mind.
The demonic energy in the young man's body is weak and unstable. He seems to be a half-demon, and the demonic energy feels familiar to him. He has been cured many times before, so he should be a fox demon or the like.
Spirits like foxes have little fighting power, and their demon power is often weak. Plus, they are still half-demon, so there is no need to worry too much... But the old monk was a little confused about the witch. The only thing that can be confirmed is that she does not belong to
This world.
Kikyo opposite her looked calm, but she couldn't help but sigh in her heart. This master was aggressive and seemed to be coming for the two of her. She touched the head of a child next to her and was about to answer the old man's question.
When the monk asked the question just now, he heard a voice next to him.
"How is it possible? Master, you must be old and dim, and you must have seen it wrong! Our village has beautiful scenery, outstanding people, simple folk customs, and warm hospitality. It is famous throughout the ten miles and eight towns!"
Gu Mo shook his head repeatedly, very disapproving of the old monk's words. At the same time, he stepped forward and started to point. He pointed out with certainty that it was the master's own problem, and he made nonsense without politeness——
"You see, the village is surrounded by mountains. On the left is a golden basin offering auspiciousness, on the right is water shooting into the middle hall. In front of it is a Chinese courtyard with cranes and jade, and at the back is jadeite from Jingshan Mountain. It is exactly the symbol of wind and water... How could there be any evil spirit?
You can't even see this. What kind of master are you? Are you a liar who is showing off?"
"..."
"..."
It took a long time for the old monk opposite to finally react. He immediately opened his eyes wide and argued subconsciously: "Donor, Donor, you are talking nonsense. I didn't understand what you said at all."
These things, and there are mountains on all sides..."
Wait, this plot is unfolding wrong! Shouldn't it usually be that he talks sharply and presses harder every step of the way, making the demon opposite him timid and unable to deal with it in the end?
Why is it that the other person is speaking loudly and loudly than he is?
"Then what else is there to say? It must be that you are not good at studying. Don't lie to others at such an old age. Go back quickly. I feel ashamed for you. You are still doing this at such an old age..." Gu Mo looked displeased.
Patiently interrupting the other party's words, while trying to drive the old monk away.
"You, you... I have been studying under a master for more than forty years. I work diligently every day. I have never made a mistake in these things. Donor, what you said is really..."
The old monk stammered and didn't know what to say, but he still argued subconsciously. After all, if the other party doubted this aspect, it was tantamount to doubting his own inheritance! If he didn't explain it clearly and make a clear distinction, wouldn't he be betraying his master?
Shame on you!
The situation seemed to suddenly become inexplicable.
Even the platycodon next to her couldn't help but shook her head helplessly, but the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and her mood seemed to have improved unconsciously.
"Donor...I am speaking out of turn, please forgive me..."
After all, because of his rich experience, the old monk endured the anger in his heart and quickly calmed down. He could not argue with this monster on this kind of thing, he would only be led astray by the other party. As long as he knew what he had to do,
What, just make an article around this point to expose the other side.
After calming down, the old monk took a few steps forward and bowed to apologize.
Just when he was bending down, a scroll fell from his sleeve intentionally or unintentionally, rolled on the ground a few times, and rolled to the opposite side.
The scroll was spread out on the ground, revealing the densely packed incantations written inside.
"I'm sorry...but can you pick it up for me?" The old monk said seriously, raising his eyes like a torch and staring at the two people opposite him, "This is a very important thing, it says Break the Demon.
According to the scripture, as long as the monster touches it, it will appear immediately!"
"...!!"
The witch's eyes narrowed for a moment, and she stepped forward decisively.
Gu Mo is not suitable to touch this volume of scriptures, because the demon-breaking scriptures are quite powerful against monsters, so she should do it herself.
Just two steps forward, Platycodon platycodon was stopped by Gu Mo who reached out and said casually: "Okay, okay, I have to put away my things! Xiaoye, return the scripture to the master... let's go back to the village.
Go inside."
"Oh...ok!"
The little girl next to him nodded like a chicken pecking rice, quickly bent down to pick up the scroll of scriptures, trotted back to the stunned old monk, held the thing out with both hands, and showed a bright smile.
with an innocent smile: "Grandpa, this is for you."
"..."
"..."
"...Thank you, thank you." The old monk's face didn't look good, but facing the little girl's innocent smile, he could only squeeze out words of thanks through his teeth.
Gu Mo gave a thumbs up to the witch, but the latter didn't say anything. She just looked at him strangely, then reached out to hold the little hand of Xiao Ye who ran back, turned around and continued walking towards the village: "Let's go.
,I have to go back now..."
"Yeah."
Seeing the group of people walking away like this, the old monk was really unwilling. He gritted his teeth and quickly chased after them again, shouting:
"Miko girl!"
Platycodon stopped and turned around with a slightly sideways glance.
"Although I don't know what makes you reluctant to leave, this is not your place to live. You should go back to where you belong!" The old monk shouted loudly, holding the rosary in his other hand tightly.
He opened his mouth and said, hoping that his words could be like Hong Zhong Da Lu, making the other party wake up!
It's hard to say about the half-demon for the time being. He also knows that the situation of the half-demon is very sad.
But this witch is indeed an ominous creature that does not belong to the human world, and we cannot let her stay here!
