My wife's name is Platycodon

Kikyo smiled brightly, having delivered two little lives with her own hands. Witnessing the birth process made her feel very happy. "Although they were wrinkled when they were born, they will definitely be two kind and lovely children in the future."

Her answer was irrelevant to the question, but Grandma Feng quickly accepted the fact that Kikyo was the person she trusted the most. When she was a child, she regarded her as her spiritual pillar. As long as Kikyo was there, she didn't have to worry about anything.

My sister can do anything.

She had thought so when she was a child, and now the idea came to her mind again. Looking up, she found that the umbrella named Platycodon had been protecting her from the wind and rain above her head.

Granny Feng felt inexplicably bitter, yet extremely relieved: "Those two children were delivered by you, sister. They must be very lucky and have the potential to become successful."

Kikyo smiled and shook her head: "As long as we are safe and sound, that's enough."

She didn't ask for much, but this simple request was the most difficult thing in this era.

Granny Feng never doubted Kikyo's words: "I definitely will."

"By the way, we are leaving." Kikyo said suddenly.

The incident happened suddenly, and Granny Feng was stunned for a moment, "Sister, don't you plan to stay here forever?"

Kikyo smiled and said, "It's Jialuo. He feels too bored. It's time for me to go out with him."

"Don't bring this up with me." Jialuo turned his head to the left indifferently. Damn it, Kikyo ignored him after she had just given him a perfunctory response, and only remembered him now.

"Isn't that so?" Kikyo took two steps forward and came closer to him. She was a head lower than Jialuo, so she had to look up to look at him. The breath she exhaled made Jialuo inexplicably think of the phrase "breath like orchid".

He took a half step back and turned his head to the right, then felt something was wrong and turned his head back again with a cold expression that showed I had no feelings for him.

"Did I say something wrong? If so, why couldn't you just look at me? Can't you just accept my sincere apology?"

Kikyo leaned forward, whispering aggressively. Gala tactically leaned back and did not come into contact with Kikyo until the angle was about 75 degrees. Kikyo then returned to the correct position and returned to normal without exerting extreme pressure.

Because as long as Jialuo put her legs on the ground, she could keep her balance even if her body above the knees was parallel to the ground and would not fall, but she could not do that without using her spiritual power, so it was easy for her to fall into his arms.

Granny Feng was simply stunned.

Cheer up, Galo.

She was confused, asking herself why she had never seen such a scene in her life. She couldn't figure out the situation, and she had misjudged Jialuo and Kikyo. It was indeed a crushing victory, indeed a one-sided suppression, but were the roles of the two people swapped?

Granny Feng was shocked. It was the first time she saw Kikyo being so capable.

"Sister, are we leaving now?" Grandma Feng asked at this time.

The two of them looked normal, as if nothing had happened. Kikyo nodded, took out a paper crane from her sleeve and handed it to Grandma Feng.

"If Kagome wants to come find me, the paper crane will guide her!"

Granny Feng carefully collected it. Now that Kagome had left, she planned to give it to Kagome later. "Sister, where are you going?"

Kikyo said: "I plan to go to the south to have a look."

It's warmer there, there are fewer bandits, and the scenery is more beautiful.

Granny Feng asked again: "Is there no purpose?"

Kikyo nodded. She had almost never moved forward aimlessly like this before, but her innate rationality kept her from getting lost. She glanced at Jialuo and smiled, "Being with Jialuo, this itself is the most important thing."

Jia Luo's expression softened immediately.

Seeing her frank and calm look, Granny Feng sighed slightly and said, "Then I wish you a smooth journey."

She was not worried, because she would have to think carefully before dealing with a big monster.

Granny Feng left quickly. Jia Luo glanced at the birds and butterflies and asked, "Are they going to follow too?"

"It won't bother us."

Jia Luo frowned slightly, "I didn't say that."

Butterfly didn't want to be a burden. If she was abandoned because of such a small matter, it would be too miserable, so she said: "Lord Jialuo, we can also turn into pieces of paper and be carried by Lord Kikyo."

The birds rarely attacked the butterflies, and it seemed they thought the same.

Jia Luo was not so stingy as to say, "You guys can follow me, it's nothing."

The two kids breathed a sigh of relief.

"Is there anything interesting in the south?"

Kikyo heard the question and closed her eyes slightly, with a nostalgic smile on her lips: "My training as a shrine maiden started in a mansion in the south. Although I stayed there for a short time, I benefited a lot. Can we go and take a look together?"

Jia Luo held the back of his head and said, "What if I find it boring?"

"Then you can do anything to me."

Chapter 24: Miko's House

Her voice was soft and her face looked innocent, yet she concealed a kind of charm, much like the voice of a devil, tempting him to fall.

Itchy! Very itchy!

The temptation went straight into the heart, like a slender feather gently stirring Gala's heart. The elusive power made people feel itchy, unable to experience it in detail, but it was real. Even scratching the itch was impossible, making it unbearable.

Jialuo's pupils trembled slightly, and he was silent at this moment. A storm of thoughts rolled up in his mind, and thousands of distracting thoughts were growing wildly like weeds. Countless ideas emerged in an instant.

Want to stop the itch!

Kikyo burst out laughing at this time: "You are not really having bad thoughts about my body."

She immediately looked at Jia Luo with a very strange look, as if it was the first time she realized his outrageous hobby, that he actually had a desire for the dead...

When Jialuo saw Kikyo's disgusted expression, his face turned dark. He was very sure that Kikyo did it on purpose and he was tricked.

He had become stupid. At that moment, he was actually moved. He forgot everything and was left with only bitter thoughts.

Jialuo turned around and walked away, striding forward. The more he explained, the worse it got. The more he talked, the more confusing it became. His attempt to cover up the truth only made him look more embarrassed.

Kikyo stroked her cheek, stood there and watched his back getting farther and farther away, and laughed softly: "Asuka, tell me, am I attractive?"

Behind him, Asuka's face was cold, and he said without hesitation: "Lady Kikyo is a worthy beauty!"

"Really?" Kikyo was very satisfied with Asuka's words.

She is a shrine maiden who never wears perfume or makeup, nor does she know how to dress herself up. She only has a pretty face and a figure wrapped in a shrine maiden's costume. She can actually be called a beauty.

"But, there are so many beauties in the world. If Garo is willing to stay in human society, he will definitely meet more beauties. He is so strong and he can be surrounded by beauties, so why is he willing to stay with me?" Kikyo asked herself.

"Because Lady Kikyo is the most beautiful woman in the world, your beauty is unmatched, and your abilities are unparalleled. In this world, you are the only one who can stand with Lady Jialuo." Asuka said again.

She is a very down-to-earth person and never says anything she is not sure of.

Butterfly also nodded: "Flying Bird is right."

She didn't expect that this ice cube could speak at such a high level. She always thought that Fei Niao was too boring and couldn't produce a single word. Now she looks at her with new eyes.

Kikyo was also surprised and glanced at Asuka. She was just reciting the poem without any reason - she had never done this before, but recently she had become much more emotional and started to have many thoughts that she had never had before.

But she knew what this meant, so she had no intention of getting back on track.

She became more feminine, and her spiritual power did not diminish.

However, Asuka's answer was beyond Kikyo's expectations. The character evolution of these two Shikigami became faster. They developed their own personalities in a very short period of time and had a tendency to develop into complete personalities.

Maybe it was also influenced by myself.

"Is that so?" Kikyo smiled slightly and reached out to stroke Asuka's head.

The bird remained silent.

Butterfly immediately showed an envious expression: "That's great."

When the conversation was over, Kikyo lifted her feet off the ground and floated to chase Jialuo. In this short period of time, she could no longer see his shadow. It seemed that she had gone too far.

"Hey." Butterfly tugged at Fei Niao's sleeve, opened her eyes wide, and leaned in closer to ask, "How do you feel?"

Fei Niao was silent, and just when Butterfly was getting impatient, he said word by word: "Different from Lady Jia Luo...very good."

Butterfly was a little mad, but of course she knew it was different, what she wanted was a detailed experience, which would allow her to imagine it to some extent.

"Tell me the memory you just had," she said.

"No, this is my memory." Asuka refused.

Butterfly glared at the traitor who was trying to hide something. She said righteously, "We are sisters, and our spiritual connection all comes from Lady Kikyo. What's yours is mine."

She brought up Kikyo's name, and Asuka hesitated. Their compatibility had decreased, and they were no longer on the same channel, without the strong telepathy they had in the past. But Butterfly's words made sense, and Asuka finally passed on her memories.

Butterfly received the memory, shrank its neck, shook its head, and soon showed a comfortable expression and let out a silly giggle.

Asuka threw a straight punch at Butterfly, who was replaying that memory on a loop, and was suddenly hit. She was stunned for a moment and touched her right eye, but she was a shikigami, so of course there was no black eye. However, she was forced to interrupt and immediately said angrily: "Do you want to fight?"

Asuka coldly retracted his fist and scolded: "Don't use Lady Kikyo's face to act so stupidly, that would be almost the same as Kagome!"

Butterfly's nose was crooked with anger. She was obviously only three-tenths similar to Kikyo, but not Kagome. And don't think I don't know you are waiting for an opportunity to retaliate: "You are. Lady Kikyo is so gentle, how could she have such an icy face like you."

Without mentioning the dispute between the two, Jialuo and Kikyo were heading south. In half a day, they had passed through the southern hills and entered Sagami Province from Musashi Province. According to the Ritsuryo, Japan's territory was divided into five ki and seven dao as administrative regions, among which there were countless territories of various sizes, and dozens of countries were fighting.

Sagami, Musashi and other countries are collectively called the Eight Kingdoms of Kanto, and Tokaido is one of the Seven Roads. In future terms, Musashi is Tokyo and Saitama Prefecture, and Sagami is Kanagawa.

The two countries are neighbors, so they have always been at war with each other, constantly conscripting soldiers to fight, and the two sides are evenly matched.

It was not until last year that all the generals on the Sagami side died suddenly and the war ended.

Garo, who had no impression of this, crossed the hills and mountains with Kikyo and headed towards the Miko's House that Kikyo mentioned.

According to Kikyo, Miko-sai is a place dedicated to training Miko, and it is of great significance to the Miko lineage. It is said that it was built by Tsuiko's followers, but in fact it is not the case. Instead, Miko-sai was built spontaneously by practitioners from all over the country in order to prevent the extinction of Miko.

Fifty years ago, Kikyo also came here to practice for a period of time.

"In my time, the head of the Miko's Temple was a solemn and serious man. He taught many Miko, and I also received his training."

He was a very respectable abbot, a priest by profession. He was very old-fashioned and strictly followed the teachings of his ancestors. Like many priests and magicians, he had no wife or children and dedicated his whole life to the mission he was responsible for.

Kikyo gained a lot of useful knowledge from the Miko's House, but unfortunately she only stayed there for a month before being respectfully sent away by the pale and haggard owner of the house.

And it wasn't just the Miko-sai, she had also been to the Onmyoji and Ise Shrine, but the treatment she received was not good. Many people avoided her, especially the elderly Onmyoji or priests. Every time they saw her, they would cover their faces with their sleeves, and seemed to be quite disgusted with her and didn't want to see her.

But she had a cold and aloof personality at that time, and was very proud. She felt that she just needed to stick to her job and didn't need to care about other people's opinions. She was very similar to Galao now, but without his thorny feeling.

Behind Tama Hill is a forest, which is lush and green, blocking out the sun and looks very prosperous.

Under the shade of the ancient trees, Kikyo led Jialuo onto the forest path. The light and shadows were mottled, and the place seemed deep and peaceful. Jialuo did not sense any evil spirits, and the forest was extremely clean.

As we approached, the first thing that caught our eye was a tower looming in the distance. It was more than 20 meters high and stood out among the surrounding trees, which were only 10 meters high on average. It was extremely conspicuous.

The path under my feet twisted and turned, and suddenly it opened up. A rather grand mansion appeared in front of me. The wall alone was a hundred meters long, with towering eaves and a classical style. It was obvious that it occupied a large area, but the exact area was unknown. The tall tower should be in the backyard of this mansion.

The mansion has no door, and the passage is wide open, so the interior can be seen at a glance. There is a plaque above the doorway, but there are no words on it. Instead, it is a combination of Tai Chi Bagua diagram and astrological symbols.

"That was left by the owner several generations ago. He was born as an Onmyoji, and his main job was to summon shikigami and talismans. He was obsessed with Taoism and studied a lot of related knowledge." Kikyo explained, knowing something about this.

She was the one who basically talked all the way, but rarely got a response. Jialuo had a stern face, but Kikyo was not surprised. She looked ahead with great interest.

I haven't seen it for more than 50 years, but this place is still the same as before. Each generation of the owner has a different identity. I wonder where this generation of owners came from.

She and Jialuo stopped in front of the mansion. Just as they were about to bow, they saw two figures rushing out from inside in two steps, holding bamboo swords and standing in front of the door.

They were two young girls, not very old with childish faces, probably about sixteen or seventeen years old, and looked extremely youthful and lively.

They were wearing shrine maiden costumes, but not the traditional red and white style like Kikyo's. The combination of the clothes was a bit mixed. The left side of the clothes was solid color, while the right side had a red lining, which did not look very formal.

But Kikyo was not surprised. Tsubaki also came from a shrine maiden's house. She wore a black shrine maiden's uniform and was unorthodox. The head of that generation of shrine had never blamed her.

Compared to the shrine maiden, Kikyo is the one who inherited the traditional costume, the classic red and white colors.

The two witches looked young, but they were very imposing. Before they could even stand still, they shouted, "Who are you?"

The white-clothed witch said: "No outsiders are allowed to enter this place!"

The witch in red was even more direct: "If you're a human, get out of here. If you're a monster, die!"

Kikyo saw that both of them had rosaries around their necks, and didn't mind their rude words, and asked, "You are the priestesses of this generation, right?"

The white-clothed witch immediately became alert and did not answer. She felt that there was something wrong with this seemingly kind witch in front of her, and asked loudly: "Who are you? What is your purpose in coming here? Why do you have a deathly aura around you!"

"You have a pretty good eyesight." Kikyo nodded slightly, and as a senior, she was initially recognizing the two priestesses.

And Jialuo was watching the scene bored, while the two girls focused their attention on Kikyo and paid no attention to the person behind her.

Even if she's just a rookie shrine maiden, she's too inexperienced.
