Chapter 102 [The Book of Friends, the Slippery Ghost, the Onmyoji and the Exorcist]

Since Higurashi Kagome knew before that Miyamoto Musashi and Master Xuanzang were not mortals and came to this world with a mission, so when Miyamoto Musashi knew something was wrong with her family, Higurashi Kagome did not make a fuss, but immediately believed it.

.

"It's time for me to go home and take a look." Higurashi Kagome said, and then looked at Nanye, "Miyamoto-sama, do you want to come with us? But I don't know if you can go through that well..."

Qiye said helplessly: "Try it, I have to go there anyway, otherwise why would I remind you about this?"

No one knew how unhappy he felt when he turned in the task and thought the world was settled, but found out that the system had released a new task.

Isn't this just like the world of tutors!? Bugs will appear in any world related to time travel. He is convinced, what else can he do, he can only smile and forgive the system, and he should pay more attention to it in the future.

Fortunately, he didn't use up all three quotas. Anyway, let's check the situation with Miyamoto Musashi's card first.

Although InuYasha wanted to collect all the fragments of the Shikon Tama as soon as possible, Kagome Higurashi's home was also very important. Many things had happened in modern times, and InuYasha was very worried and decided to go back with Kagome Higurashi.

After being sent all the way back to the village where the Bone-Eating Well is located by Kirara, Nanaya followed Kagome Higurashi and Inuyasha and jumped into the dry well that connected modern times and the Warring States Period, and then successfully crossed over as expected.

The strange thing is that when Nanaya opened her eyes, she did not appear in the modern well, but stood alone in the middle of a road. Inuyasha and Higurashi Kagome, who jumped into the well together, were nowhere to be seen.

The surrounding walls are mottled and weeds grow on the walls. No matter you look forward or backward, there is a fork in the road.

"Ah...is it so exciting? Entering the maze directly?" Qiye couldn't help but hold his forehead.

There is no doubt that the heroic spirit that turned what was supposed to be a shrine into a strange labyrinth is Asterios - but this name is not commonly used, and most of the time, everyone calls him the Minotaur.

In Greek mythology, a man-eating monster with a body and a minotaur was locked in a maze, and was finally defeated by the hero Theseus after he used a magical ball of wool to determine the exit.

If you hadn't met Asterios, there wouldn't be much danger in this labyrinth. You would just get lost. Hunger and thirst would be more of a threat than anything else.

As long as the exit can be found, the maze will be cracked. Of course, killing Asterios can also crack the maze. After all, Qiye is on a mission, so he must choose the latter method.

Qiye sensed Asterios' spiritual reaction, found a direction, and started trying to break through the wall and take a shortcut.

Otherwise, this maze... How would he know how to get around Asterios?!

As a result, "rumbling" sounds began to echo in the maze from time to time. It was the first time for other people in the maze to hear this sound, and they couldn't help but be extremely vigilant.

"What happened again?"

"...Is someone smashing the wall?"

"Is this wall so easy to smash? Go and smash one and see? It's not like you haven't smashed it before, and you know that even after a long time of hard work, the crumbs were not removed."

"Who else is there besides us in this maze?"

Outsiders would definitely not be able to figure this out. Everyone's attention fell on the location of this maze, the master of Higurashi Shrine, Mr. Higurashi.

Grandpa Higurashi coughed: "Ah... I'm not sure, but with this fighting ability, if it's not that monster, he might be my granddaughter's boyfriend."

"Oh?" The man in a kimono with one eye covered while exploring the labyrinth of Equation God said with interest, "Is that the person you said can travel to the other side of the well 500 years ago?"

?”

"Exactly." Grandpa Higurashi thumped his waist, "Although none of you can pass, I didn't lie."

"No one doubts that with such a strong demonic energy, it is normal for any problems to arise." The man in kimono said.

While they were talking, the strange noises were getting closer and closer. Everyone who was already running away became nervous, either summoning shikigami or taking out talismans, ready to start a battle at any time.

Only the Higurashi family are really ordinary people. They can't do anything but run away as fast as possible. It's good if they don't hold them back.

Finally, the wall closest to them was broken, and a young man walked out of the smoke.

He was wearing a kimono that looked like a Taiga drama, holding a sword in his hand. He kicked over the ruins blocking the road with a careless kick, and turned to look in the direction of the crowd.

"...Huh? Who are you?" The young man put away his sword to show his kindness, and then walked towards them, "Isn't this Miss Kagome's home?"

This person spoke very modern Japanese when he spoke, but fortunately everyone understood him without any problems.

Hearing the young man say the name of the granddaughter of the priest of Higurashi Shrine, who was also very handsome, and looked like a visitor from the Warring States Period, a demon slayer who was standing closer had a guess in his mind: "You are Inuyasha

?”

"...Huh?" The young man was speechless for a moment, "You got the wrong person. But I came back with Inuyasha and Miss Kagome... What are you guys doing here?"

Without waiting for anyone to reply, Grandpa Higurashi, who knew the crisis was over, turned around and hurried back: "Kagome is back? I am her grandfather!"

"Oh, good day." The young man said hello casually and asked, "Who are these people?"

Because he guessed that the young man was his granddaughter's friend in the Warring States Period, Grandpa Higurashi explained directly without much resistance: "It's a long story..."

Today at noon, just after Higurashi's family had finished their meal, someone came to visit the shrine, claiming to be a demon slayer from the [Deba] sect.

[The field] is quite famous in the outside world. It comes from a family of demon slayers. The leader of this generation, Shizuki Chang, has a very ruthless style, and no one dares to provoke him easily - but even though Grandpa Higurashi is driving

The shrine, however, did not understand these things and treated them as ordinary guests.

After the other party showed the existence of the shikigami, the Higurashi family believed that they were not liars, but real demon slayers.

Ba Shizuji said that the recent Baji family received a monster extermination order. When the monster was begging for mercy, he mentioned the Shikon Jade and swore that the Shikon Jade was at Higurashi Shrine. This made him heard

Shikon no Tama Daimyo Shiba Shizuji was very interested, so he came to bother him.

To be honest, after seeing such a family that was so ignorant of the outside world, Shiba Shizuji had given up hope on the whereabouts of the Shikon Tama.

Although according to records, Higurashi Shrine was indeed the place where the shrine maiden who guarded the Shikon Jade once lived, and even the amulets sold by the shrine were sold with the Shikon Jade as a selling point, but those were all fake. He was in this shrine.

I didn't feel anything similar to the aura of the Four Souls Jade.

However, the evil spirit was quite strong. For the reason that he "suspected that there was a monster hiding", Grandpa Higurashi did not hide it for the sake of them being professionals and took them to see the Well of Bone Eaters.

Although the Bone-eating Well seemed a bit strange, it was not what Shiba Shizuji needed, so he felt that the monster was really willing to say anything just to beg for mercy, so he planned to leave.

But just as they were saying goodbye, a strange feeling enveloped Shiba Shizuji. The next second, the appearance in front of them changed. For some reason, they entered a maze.

"...Your Higurashi Shrine is really magical." When encountering this kind of thing, Shiba Shizuji couldn't help but sigh.

Grandpa Higurashi, who happened to be not far from Shiba Shiba, denied it decisively: "No, this is the first time this has happened."

"But after all, it happened at Higurashi Shrine. Do you have any ideas? Anything will do."

Shiba Shizuji asked casually, and learned the shocking fact that the Bone-Eating Well can travel through time and space.

After that, they released the shikigami and looked for people and an exit. The group gradually gathered and shared a wave of information.

"A monster with horns and a giant ax... a maze..."

Although Shiba Shizuji is a local demon slayer in Japan, he has also gone to school and has some understanding of foreign mythology. As soon as the keyword came out, he immediately thought of a legend.

"The Minotaur...the minotaur in the labyrinth in Greek mythology."

Although he quickly thought of this legend, Shiba Shizuji did not dare to confirm it just like that. After all-

"Why do monsters from Greek mythology appear in Japan?"

No one can answer this question.

Compared with the identity of the monster in the maze, getting out of this maze is more important.

"If it is really the maze in Greek mythology, it would actually be okay." Someone comforted himself, "At least in the myth, the maze does have an exit... This maze is so weirdly formed, if there is no exit...

"

Everyone was silent.

Just when everyone was trying to draw the map of the maze, there was a shock that seemed to collapse the maze, and then this young man appeared.

Grandpa Higurashi explained the matter clearly, and then looked at the young man expectantly: "If you can collapse these walls, can you also go out?"

"Huh? It's possible. If you keep punching through it in such a straight line, you will definitely be able to get out, right? However, the monsters in the maze may also follow it out, so it is better to kill it once and for all."

The young man responded with silence.

On the way to the gathering, they actually found the corpses of their companions. The tragic appearance made them extremely angry... but they did not dare to really go up to seek revenge on the monster before they found out the details.

No one understands the strength of the dead man better than them. Judging from the formations painted on the ground and the traces of the battle scene, it can be seen that the man was easily killed despite being fully prepared and using all his means.

But...but think about it carefully, the walls of the maze that even the monster cannot destroy can be destroyed by this young man. Is it really possible for him to kill him...

Wait a moment.

Speaking of which, is this young man... a little too strong? Is he really from the Warring States Period? Although I don't feel the demonic aura, what if it is a big monster from the Warring States Period who can hide his aura...

All the people who realized this looked at each other, and the atmosphere became even weirder.

"What's wrong?" The young man noticed something was wrong and frowned.

As the head of the house, Shiba Jingji came forward and asked: "I haven't had time to inform you of your name yet. I'm the next one, Shiba Jingji, who are you...?"
