After seeing clearly what was going on and making sure that she had seen something, Higurashi Kagome felt that her whole body was not well, and she stood frozen in place.

what happened?

She had only been away for two weeks, how could the real world become like this... No matter what, she couldn't understand how the situation had evolved in just two weeks, even if the war had broken out. To such a bad extent.

She felt a chill all over her body and looked around blankly. Then she finally came to her senses and stumbled back to the house behind the shrine's main hall.

"Mom, grandpa, Souta..."

Hope nothing happens!

etc! This terrifying demonic energy... She suddenly felt something. She suddenly raised her head and looked in the direction of the sky. In her keen spiritual sense, she could feel the rapid approach of a powerful and déjà vu demonic aura. He came towards his own shrine with a clear goal.

"This is!"

Her pupils shrank suddenly, and then she looked in the direction of the mountain behind her shrine. The evil spirit seemed to fall straight from the sky, and instantly swooped into the forest behind the mountain!

…………

In a dense forest.

Although it cannot be observed normally due to the shielding of the powerful demonic energy, the huge nine-tailed demon fox has landed in a relatively flat and open space at the foot of the mountain, surrounded by tall trees. The buildings and tall sacred trees of Higurashi Shrine can be vaguely seen in the distance.

The huge demon fox knelt down gently in the open space and lowered its huge head, allowing the miko to get off its back calmly.

Kikyo landed on the ground, turned around and looked up at the giant creature in front of her, raising her eyebrows slightly, but there was no expression on her face.

"..."

"..."

The air seemed to quieten, like the silent melody of the forest.

At this time, there were rapid footsteps in the forest outside. After a second or two passed, a girl in a sailor suit carrying a large backpack ran over panting.

When Higurashi Kagome noticed the situation, her body had already reacted faster than her brain, and she subconsciously ran towards the back mountain. She even completely forgot that she was carrying a heavy backpack. It was too late to put down my backpack.

Regardless of whether the visitor was malicious or not, he had already reached the back of her home. She had to figure out what was going on. If something really went wrong, she could at least delay it for her family.

This was purely a subconscious reaction. After all, after practicing for so long in the Warring States Period, both her abilities and her character had been greatly improved... So she went straight to the back mountain without any hesitation or consideration. .

After passing through the outer cover forest, the scene in front of him was broad and bright. Kagome Higurashi could clearly see the scene in the open space in front of him.

The miko, wearing white clothes and scarlet hakama, calmly raised her head and looked at the giant demon fox in front of her.

The latter also lowered his head, with golden-red eyes that seemed to be burning with fire, and quietly looked down at the witch.

The background is the forest at the foot of the mountain with dense foliage and green trees. Even the wind seems to be as quiet as the air. The sun is falling through the gaps between the leaves. The little spots of light are like stars twinkling in the sky. The whole picture is transparent. There is an elusive sense of tranquility.

This scene was so impactful that Higurashi Kagome was stunned.

Moreover, the unexpected harmony of this picture does not give people any sense of oppression or suffocation. It is obvious that the monster fox is extremely huge, but... at least the girl in the sailor suit does not feel any pressure, unlike the huge monsters she has faced in the past. In that way, you will always feel a heavy feeling that is hard to breathe.

certainly--

Limited to the atmosphere at this moment, if she were to face this behemoth here alone, she would definitely still feel out of breath.

At this time, the miko over there also noticed the appearance of Higurashi Kagome. She gently turned her eyes and glanced in this direction.

The girl in the sailor suit finally came to her senses and remembered why she came here, with an expression of shock and disbelief on her face:

"Jikyo? It's you! You, you...why are you here?"

Before the miko could answer, she couldn't help but look back. Because of the cover of the trees, she couldn't even see her own shrine clearly, and naturally she couldn't see the city outside. But she knew what was happening, so she gritted her teeth and said in a trembling voice: "What happened outside...couldn't it be because of you?!"

Why did Platycodon appear in his own era?

What are you here for?

Moreover, the city outside happened to be in chaos, and it was really difficult for Higurashi Kagome not to make associations with the other party... because everything was fine before, but after the other party came over, such a major change happened directly , to be fair, everyone can only think of it this way.

At this time, a mirror suddenly appeared in front of the huge demon fox behind the witch, and then quickly disappeared. The next moment, the body of the giant monster began to shine, and the huge outline quickly shrank in the light, finally revealing a normal figure. The human form comes.

Just as the dependence combination needs to consume the power of the host to maintain, the monster transformation is just a dependence combination with a higher synchronization rate. Naturally, it is impossible to say that the void is created, can be activated and maintained without any cost... Think about it. Knowing is impossible.

Examples in the Nioh world often rely on the power of a large number of spiritual stones to transform ordinary humans into great monsters, while Gu Mo relies on the power of himself and the Shikon Jade fragments... So of course, the monster-shaped form is not It cannot be lifted. As long as the huge consumption cannot be continued, all continuously activated abilities can only be forced to terminate.

It's just that in most cases, once they enter the state of monsters, they have either lost their minds due to some conspiracy, or they have gone completely crazy. They did not make clear thinking and rational decisions based on their true will, so Basically this process seems irreversible.

Until it was forcibly interrupted by an external force——

When life comes to an end and the union with the guardian spirit cannot be maintained, the monster transformation will be naturally lifted.

However, Gu Mo himself has not reached that point, and the nine tails will not pull him into the abyss, but simply choose, assist, and protect his spiritual existence - otherwise it will not be a guardian spirit, but a demon. Well, most of the time it is the host that drags the guardian spirit along with it to become possessed, rather than the guardian spirit influencing the host to become evil.

Under such circumstances, the only thing that can bewitch him is the fragments of the Four Souls Jade. Fortunately, he has only two fragments in his hand, which can be used to completely transform into a monster with a huge amount of spiritual stones, but it does not As for the side effects of not being able to block Jade's evil side, after all, his highest attribute is spirit.

So he can consciously de-yokai... Even if he is locked, it doesn't matter, because he has had a similar experience before. He can remove the Shikon Jade from the "equipped" state directly through the system panel, and then he can forcibly pinch it. Cut off the transmission channel of demon power and forcefully exit this state.

However, complete monster transformation does not mean that it is the ultimate form. Simply put, it is the difference between Sesshomaru and his father. Sesshomaru is indeed a complete monster, but even if he reveals his true form and changes into the appearance of a giant monster dog, his body size is far inferior to that of his father, who is larger than a thousand-meter mountain.

After all, the nine-tailed form that Gu Mo showed for the first time was just the power of the guardian spirit combined with the combined power of himself and the two fragments. If he had more fragments, or even a complete Shikon Jade... Shen Jiuye might not be able to figure out what happened, and the person would be dead.

After returning to his original state, Gu Mo looked down at his palms and answered Kagome Higurashi's question in a very calm tone:

"It's not our fault, it's just that a demon that was sealed five hundred years ago came out today, in this era... We originally wanted to stop her."

"It's really you..."

Higurashi Kagome's tone was incomprehensible, even though she had already made a guess before, because the evil spirit was somewhat familiar, and when she saw Kikyo, she naturally immediately thought of a bad guy.

Taking a deep breath, she tried to calm down: "What kind of monster is it?"

"Shen Jiuye... Well, it's hard to explain to you. Just go back and ask that lustful mage. He is a powerful demon sealed by his grandfather. He has been sealed until this era before he recovered." Gu Mo answered calmly. He said, "When we came over, we happened to encounter her resuscitation, so naturally we had to take action to stop her."

"But...but why is it like this outside? And why did you happen to meet me? What is your reason for coming to this era?"

Kagome Higurashi still held a strong suspicion. What the other party said seemed very legitimate, but in her opinion, there were many doubts. The simplest question was why these two people came to her for no reason. In this era, it happened to happen to such a thing?

Such a "coincidence"...don't you think it's too deliberate?

"Isn't this normal? We have some scruples, but the other side is not afraid at all and cannot cooperate with us. Naturally, it will cause a big fuss..." Gu Mo spread his hands, "And Tokyo Bay is right there. Next to it, it didn’t take long for the fighter jets from the military base to arrive. They dropped their bombs directly, and there was nothing we could do about it.”

He was not that crazy. Even if he only took into account the opinion of the witch, he naturally had to restrain himself. Even after being completely transformed into a monster, he did not wreak havoc... However, the giant demon fox he transformed into walked around and fought in the city without causing much damage. On the contrary, the US military directly washed the ground with missiles as soon as they arrived, and they were like heroes among ghosts and beasts.

But think about it, even the lives of the people of the country should not be regarded as life. Directly using people to test viruses does not only happen in movies. How can they be expected to value the human rights of other countries.

"As for why we come to this era...it's for this. I just want to get this sword."

He explained slowly that this was his original purpose. As for why he happened to meet Shen Jiuye later, it was really a coincidence... Maybe it was because the restraining force was activated. I can't say for sure. It seems like in the original plot, five hundred years ago, Shen Jiuye launched the time-stop ultimate move to stop time on the entire earth.

It just so happens that the protagonist is destined to be born, either from a time period that does not belong to the current world, or with something that does not belong to the current world...

But now the trajectory of fate has shifted. Shen Jiuye only awakened today after five hundred years. He is still preparing to launch his ultimate move and stop the time of the entire earth. And then on this day... he and Kikyo came to this era again, Such a "coincidence" might really be the world's defense mechanism quietly affecting destiny.

Through various coincidences, at the right time and in the right place, the "hero" who has the ability to prevent the disaster appears?

"For this sword..."

Higurashi Kagome looked at the simple straight knife in Kikyo's hand, which had been silent all this time, and her pupils shrank slightly, because she happened to see the engraving on the wooden sheath - the words "Cong Yunya" were very obvious, and just before returning , she happened to hear what Grandpa Totozai said about this sword.

"Yes, it has been gathering dust in your house, so I came over to take it away." Gu Mo said confidently.

"What?"

This sword has been gathering dust in your own home? Higurashi Kagome was really shocked: "Wait, why did you take my things away?"

"What's your thing? It's mine..." Gu Mo chuckled mischievously, still so confident. He paid for it, and he paid for it, and he's innocent, no matter who he is. He couldn't even say no, it was already his thing.

"Your stuff...is it yours?"

The girl in sailor uniform murmured to herself, remembering what the old man said.

It is said that this sword is different from the Iron Fang and the Natural Fang. It is not made from the teeth of Inuyasha's father, but a demon sword that has existed from a long time ago. No one knows who made it or who it belonged to. The weapon... Inuyasha's father only got it in his time.

Did it turn out to be this person's knife...

Thinking of seeing the other person's "real body" just now, Higurashi Kagome bit her lower lip gently, and had a sudden feeling that this person was probably an old monster who had lived for who knows how long.

Huh? Is this reaction a little dull?

Gu Mo raised his eyebrows, why didn't Kagome Higurashi refute at all? He just waited for her to argue, and then told her that he bought it from her grandfather with his own money, okay Admire her mask of pain... But with this kind of reaction, his bad taste is really unsatisfied.

"This this……"

Higurashi Kagome gritted her teeth, feeling extremely confused. She tried hard to sort out her head that was like paste, and couldn't help but ask: "Is the situation serious now? How are the casualties?"

"I don't know, but at least nothing happened to your classmates... Even though they were not killed by missiles, Shen Jiuye got what she wanted." Gu Mo laughed heartily, thanks to the help of the US military ghosts. , in that chaotic situation, only Shen Jiuye was at ease, seizing the opportunity to grab something and run away.

"Wait, wait! My classmate?"

Higurashi Kagome's face was full of astonishment, why did she involve her classmates, and why did this person know about her classmates?

"Yes, you can investigate the specific situation yourself... There is no need to ask them. They don't even remember the details. Believe me, this is for their own good." Gu Mo said noncommittally. He could help. There's only so much I can do.

Fortunately, this was still the end of the 20th century, when information and communication technology was not yet so developed, and emerging media and online platforms such as live broadcasts had not yet appeared. Even on the streets of Tokyo, there was no surveillance. Before he led the miko around in a large circle and quietly returned to Higurashi Shrine, he also released a large-scale charm.

Of course, does it mean that he forcibly erases this matter and makes people treat everything as if it does not exist? It has already caused such a big fuss, and he cannot have the power to interfere with the world's souls.

So I just cut off the clues so that the real world can't pursue it. No matter how I investigate, I still don't know how this incident unfolded or who or what it was for, because the person involved himself has a vague impression. I feel like I didn’t see it clearly at the time.

Higurashi Kagome gritted her teeth tightly and her mind was in a mess. She finally sorted out her thoughts and then thought of a very crucial question.

She hurriedly asked: "Wait a minute! You just said that God...that God Jiuye got what she needed?"

"Yeah..." Gu Mo said slowly.

"What are the consequences of that?"

"Well, let's destroy the world..." Gu Mo pondered for a moment and gave a very old-fashioned plot development, but it may seem unusually old-fashioned to him, but for the girl in the sailor suit, it is no different than rumbling. Thunder exploded in her ears, causing her pupils to shrink to the limit.

"Are you kidding me?" His voice was trembling.

"No, Shen Jiuye can really do it, and he will do it soon... If you want to save your era, go back and shake people immediately." Gu Mo shook his head and kindly pointed out to the girl. A clear path has been found, bringing the protagonist group from five hundred years ago to the current era, and they can still be immune to Shen Jiuye's ultimate move based on the current time.

Anyway, the other side doesn't care about martial ethics anymore, so I have to have some righteous group fights on my side.

"Yes, yes! Go and call someone..."

As if waking up from a dream, Higurashi Kagome turned around and ran away. She felt that her body had become extremely heavy due to the huge pressure, and she was swaying so much that she could hardly breathe. Is this the feeling of suffocation that the world is about to be destroyed? ? Is this the immense pressure of shouldering the burden of saving the world?

Seeing the girl in sailor uniform staggering out while carrying a backpack that was twice as big as her body, Gu Mo opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything.

Breathing softly, he turned around and looked at the miko who had been unusually quiet since just now with a smile on his face:

"Kamikuya's real lair is Dream City. I remember it should be on the other side of the Fuji Five Lakes. We can go over there and have a look."

Kikyo nodded slightly, just staring at him without saying a word.

Feeling a little guilty after being looked at like this, Gu Mo laughed and tried to get away with it: "What's wrong, why are you looking at me like that?"

"...You are not a half-demon." Kikyo said calmly.

"Well... I never said I was a half-demon, so I'm not lying to you." Gu Mogan laughed a few times and explained like this. He had never taken the initiative to say such a thing.

The miko frowned slightly.

"Then let me put it another way..." She lowered her long eyelashes gently, "Why would a big monster like you do this?"

"..."

"..."

"For the Jade of Four Souls?" Gu Mo said cautiously.

Why this uncertain tone? Don’t you even know what you want? The miko still lowered her eyes, and her expression could not be clearly seen under her straight bangs, but she already understood that this person was definitely lying, and that he was not after the Four Souls Jade.

Although he told a lie, it indirectly proved something.

This was something she had always been wary of, something she had always been wary of, because she didn't know whether she should trust the other person, and she always wanted to find a chance to test... After all, she died for this, and she had already been on this gem during her lifetime. After paying a painful enough price, you will naturally not trust others easily again.

Now……

She finally confirmed thoroughly that this person was indeed not here for Yu...

However, the miko felt that her mood seemed to be getting heavier. She didn't know how to deal with this situation... The other party might as well have come for Jade.

…………

(ps: The cold is getting worse...sad)
