My wife's name is Platycodon

After being aloof from desires for more than half a year, I finally managed to alleviate the psychological trauma, but I found that the big devil had come knocking on my door.

Not only did they demolish the Duobao Pagoda, they even tore the ghosts that were suppressed here to pieces.

The means were extremely bloody and the process was extremely brutal.

If they remembered correctly, the master once mentioned that the ghost clan in Duobao Pagoda was a ghost clan that could devour other ghosts. Because its potential was too strong, it was suppressed to prevent it from becoming a ghost king.

There are still ways to deal with the current Red Ghosts, but the Ghost King is really powerless. Even the human wave tactics cannot kill them. Only the resurrection of Cui Zi and the reincarnation of Ampere can deal with it.

But even so, it cannot be killed or defeated. Only by sacrificing the lives of many practitioners can it be sealed.

A shrine was also built to create a relatively pure environment in order to prevent evil spirits living in the forest from destroying the seal or becoming the source of power for the red ghost.

Jia Luo came over, snorted, and said, "This place is pretty good. I'm very satisfied."

Is he looking at us? What's good? What does he want to do? Occupy the witch's house? Force them to serve him? Turn a quiet place into a disgusting place...

The two witches were weak, pitiful and helpless, and they thought a lot at this time.

Kikyo, who arrived late, stood behind the two of them. She looked around and saw that the destruction was so complete that it was almost impossible to tell that there had been a tower there originally.

Kikyo frowned slightly: "It's too noisy, Jialuo."

Jia Luo curled her lips: "I am happy to see the prey."

The physical strength of the ghost tribe far exceeds that of other monsters. They are best at hand-to-hand combat. Only a few of them can awaken their magical powers. They are his favorite monsters.

There's no other reason. It's just easy and fun to beat them. Unlike other monsters, they have strange abilities and are difficult to kill. They also feel like paper.

Moreover, the blood of the ghost clan is different from the blood of demons, and it can indeed slightly enhance his physical fitness.

Jialuo pulled up the system interface and a message popped up.

[Kill the target and gain a small amount of reinforcement points]

Jialuo estimated that he only needed 0.1 enhancement points to complete the collection, and then he could truly upgrade.

At present, [Body] and [Spirit] have completed sublimation one after another, and the attributes have reached 100 points, which is considered to be the tenth level range.

But his [Qi] has been lagging behind, still at 99 points. It is obvious that the demonic energy in his body has already exceeded the tenth level of energy, but the system doesn't know what's wrong and has not made any judgment. He can only rely on strengthening points to push it up.

But as his two attributes improved, it became increasingly difficult to obtain enhancement points.

It wasn't the worst yet, at least one red ghost could provide relatively optimistic points. Jialuo expected that after he reached level 10, the system's evaluation would also increase to a terrifying level.

If we count them as humans, with a population of hundreds of thousands in Musashi Province, he might have to kill them all to get enough strengthening points.

Only hunting strong ones can support this consumption.

Kikyo came to Gala, her eyes fell on the dead body of the ghost, and she sighed.

"I didn't expect this ghost clan to die like this."

After Kikyo came over, Hongye Mudan suddenly felt safe. If Jialuo harmed them, this senior would definitely protect them.

"Senior, do you also know this ghost tribe?"

Kikyo sighed slightly: "Yes, I wanted to purify it at that time, but because I was not strong enough, I had to give up. Later, I had enough strength, but I also had my own mission, so I never came a second time."

At that time, she had just started practicing, and no matter how powerful she was, she was far from being able to compare with her peak abilities. Without complete certainty, she naturally could not move the Duobao Pagoda.

"The master at that time placed his hope of destroying the ghost tribe on your senior sister. Unfortunately, in the end, his expectations were dashed. His most outstanding disciple was blinded by jealousy and could not accept his own failure. He fell into depravity."

Mudan was shocked. A witch fell? This was a big deal, a typical negative example. There was no way her master wouldn't tell her.

"My master never mentioned this."

Kikyo glanced at her and said, "I'm talking about the previous generation of the master."

Mudan was even more confused. Their master was already old when he adopted them. According to him, he had stayed in the Wu Nu Zhai for thirty years, which meant that the previous generation's master was at least thirty years old.

This senior, who is...

Hongye patted her butt gently. Mudan looked over in confusion. Hongye moved her lips slightly, glanced at Kikyo, and said a few words silently without making a sound.

Mudan covered her mouth in surprise, and then looked at Kikyo with admiration and worship.

Kikyo was a little confused: "Don't you know what happened at that time?"

At that time, Chun was as famous as she, and they felt like Qiao Feng in the north and Murong in the south. Even if Chun borrowed her name, he shouldn't be unknown.

Mudan smiled awkwardly and said, "Our master only taught us what he knew."

There is a biography in the Miko-sai that records all the encounters and experiences over the past hundred years, but Chun's name was not recorded in it and was deliberately erased. From then on, no one knew that the black miko Chun came from the Miko-sai.

Kikyo didn't know the inside story, but she could roughly guess it.

The priest, the master of the temple, is a strict person who never shows his emotions, but he likes Chun very much and has always regarded her as a candidate to be cultivated into the next master of the temple.

But then something extremely complicated happened.

Perhaps out of selfish motives, or perhaps because he thought Tsubaki was not capable enough, the priest Saizu entrusted the mission of the Four Souls Jade to Kikyo.

However, Tsubaki believed it was the latter and was extremely dissatisfied with the decision of the master. In a rage, she rebelled against the Miko's House and tried to seize the Four Souls Jade. After being repelled by Kikyo, she disappeared from then on.

Such a long time has passed, and I wonder if that talented witch is still alive.

Kikyo looked at Jialuo and said with a smile: "Are you satisfied now?"

When Jialuo heard her words, he looked at Kikyo with suspicion.

"Why do I feel like you have arranged this for me?"

Could it be that this witch is using herself as a thug?

Kikyo burst out laughing. How could she have such ability? She could know what would happen 500 years later, but that didn’t mean she could also know what would happen 500 years ahead.

"I just accompany you out to relax."

Jialuo felt that this was the truth, but the look of doubt on his face remained unchanged. He still didn't understand how much Kikyo knew and what level she had reached.

When I think about it carefully, I feel that this is all coincidental.

Seeing that he didn't believe her, Kikyo said innocently, "You doubt me? I thought you had nothing to do in Maple Village, so I asked you to come out and play."

She questioned Jialuo with full confidence.

Jialuo suddenly felt a headache. When did Kikyo learn this trick? He was never Kikyo's opponent. His own rank had not been improved yet, but he saw the opponent go from a master to a king. This time he was even more unable to beat her.

So Jia Luo explained: "I didn't doubt you, and with you in Maple Village, I really didn't feel bored."

He showed his true feelings, which were hard to resist, and wanted Kikyo to let him go.

But Kikyo refused to give in and said aggressively: "Then why are you looking at me like that? I have been with you all this time. Do you think this is my arrangement?"

Jialuo had no evidence in the first place, Kikyo was right, and she had been resurrected not long ago, and had been troubled by various things during this period, so it was unreasonable for her to know everything about Miko-sai.

Besides, he was the one who took the initiative to find the red ghost, so how would Kikyo know that he couldn’t make it? So it should have nothing to do with Kikyo.

Jialuo was caught in a brainstorming session, frowning and thinking hard. After a while, he finally convinced himself.

Then he began to feel guilty, thinking that he shouldn't have thought that Kikyo was arranging him. Doesn't this mean that he never trusted Kikyo?

Kikyo's expression fell, and she said tiredly, "I'm tired, Jialuo, let's not talk about this anymore, okay?"

Jialuo nodded silently, then suddenly froze and realized what he had said.

Nothing to say okay.

But now that things have come to this, it is too late for him to say anything.

Kikyo looked at the two witches at this time: "We plan to stay here for one night, you guys make the arrangements."

After that, she seemed to remember something and said to Jia Luo: "Jia Luo?"

When Jialuo heard the word "arrangement", he got a headache and said "hmm" in a very bad temper. He scratched his head and still couldn't figure out what had just happened. He always felt that something was wrong.

Kikyo waved her wide sleeves, and two shikigami, a bird and a butterfly, appeared, standing on the ground in a playful manner.

Kikyo said: "Please clean up here."

The birds and butterflies knew what had happened and were not surprised, they just nodded.

"Wow, what a cute little Shikigami!" Hongye and Mudan's eyes lit up, and they rushed over at the same time, hugging one each.

Then, rub hard!

Although they could also summon Shikigami, they had never seen such an exquisite and lovely Shikigami before. They were so overjoyed that they wanted to take one home and raise it for the rest of their lives.

"Please don't be like this." Although Butterfly is very close to Jialuo, she is very repulsive to strangers. She has a gentle and polite personality and is not good at using tough measures.

Fei Niao was much more direct. She stretched out her hand indifferently, refusing Mudan to get close to her. However, she was too small and her arms were not long, so she kept this posture and was embraced by Mudan.

Feeling the deformation of his face from being rubbed, Fei Niao remained expressionless and said nothing.

"Is it a real person? It even has temperature and weight. How did they do that? It's incredible."

"Please let me go. I want to carry out Lord Kikyo's order." Butterfly was still resisting, but without any spiritual power, her strength was weak and she could not withstand the enemy's attack.

"Let's talk about this later. Let me see your body." Hongye couldn't help but say the dangerous lines.

Chapter 27: The Hand Holding the Reins

Hongye couldn't let go. She fell in love with the little person in her arms at first sight. Her skin was as smooth as milk, her eyes were a little shy, and she struggled hard. Although the results were minimal, she could still clearly feel the power of resistance.

She couldn't help but wonder, is this really a shikigami?

Mikosai recorded the methods of obtaining Shikigami. She and Mudan also have their own Shikigami, and they know very well that there are many ways to obtain Shikigami.

Among them, the most common is to summon the spirits wandering between heaven and earth, but these wandering spirits are weak and cannot be relied upon. They can only be used for reconnaissance and act as spies, playing a certain auxiliary role.

Kikyo's dead soul worm is a wandering spirit, the lowest level of spirit. It can bless Kikyo with the power of levitation, allowing Kikyo to walk in the sky as if walking on flat ground. It can also collect the dead souls of young girls and bring some things Kikyo wants from hundreds of miles away.

There are also summons of living creatures, such as spiritual mice, foxes, cats, etc., which naturally possess magical powers. Yunmu is Tsuiko's shikigami, but after Tsuiko died, it survived and has been active in the demon-killing village ever since.

But there are more advanced shikigami, such as those who sign contracts directly with gods, and secondly reach agreements with some gods, ghosts and other monsters. However, these shikigami often have a certain degree of autonomy, which ordinary onmyoji cannot control.

But the birds and butterflies did not give them this feeling.

Hongye saw it clearly just now. These two little guys were shikigami made of paper. They were neither wandering spirits, nor living creatures, nor monsters. To be honest, they were more like shrine maidens.

It was like a manipulation technique that gave a paper figure a soul. But for the witch, it was just a basic spell.

She and Mudan also know this kind of magic, but not only can the paper figures not change shape, their power is also very weak. Not to mention practitioners, even ordinary people can be killed by one step, which is equivalent to an ant.

The saying that ants can kill elephants is also not true, because it takes half a day to successfully communicate with the spirit, and only one paper man can be made each time, and the shelf life is limited.

Their power can only last for half a year. Once that time is up, the tiny souls on the paper will dissipate.

Butterfly pouted, looking very aggrieved. She wanted to push Hongye away. She had never seen such an impolite guy before. He hugged her and refused to let go after a disagreement, and kept touching her with his hands - doesn't this guy know how to avoid private areas?

Butterfly felt ashamed and angry. In terms of strength, she and Asuka could crush these two rookie priestesses even without the power of Lady Kikyo, but their status were different.

Kikyo has trained in the Miko's House, and these two rookies can barely be considered Kikyo's juniors even though they are fifty years apart. She and Asuka are just Kikyo's servants, and no matter how strong they are, they cannot be disrespectful to these two rookies because of their status.

But why do these two guys act like they have never seen the world... Well, they are indeed ignorant of the world, but this cannot be used as an excuse. Even Lady Jialuo has never treated her like this - the strongest man of the human race respected her wishes very much, so why was she being bitten for no reason?

Although Butterfly didn't mind Gala holding her like this.

Hongye didn't know that any one of these two petite Shikigami had the strength to defeat her. The more she looked at them, the more surprised she was. She felt that the expression of disgust on Butterfly's face was exactly the same as that of a living person. If she hadn't seen their transformation process with her own eyes, she would almost have mistaken them for the boys beside Kikyo.

"Senior Kikyo, is this also your Shikigami?" She was itching to kidnap one and keep it here forever.

Mudan thought the same thing, completely unaware that Asuka was looking at her as if she were trash.

Kikyo treated them very well, showing some concern for them. She nodded slightly and said, "Yes, using a strand of hair and spiritual power, you can copy a shikigami that is similar to the original."

The two looked at each other and asked with difficulty: "Is it really that effective?"

They are not idiots in practicing, after all, they are real shrine maidens. Although their quality in all aspects is far inferior because their master died early, they still have a good understanding of this knowledge.

It's not like they haven't used this kind of magic before, but the effect was not ideal. Using a strand of hair as the medium, the copied Shikigami had no intelligence at all, their movements were clumsy, their strength was shallow, and they would fall down after taking a few steps.

If I were to create one based on myself... there are many spells. If you encounter difficulties, you can think of other ways. There is no need to torture yourself like this.

"But we have also used the spirit-endowing technique, but we couldn't achieve the same effect as you. Please give me some advice." Hongye asked sincerely. This was considered a difficult point in practice. Without the guidance of a famous teacher, he would probably be stuck for the rest of his life.

She envied Kikyo for having butterflies and birds, and she also hoped that she could create such a shikigami that was responsive and very human.
