With the death of the leading monster, the remaining monsters were no longer a threat. The villagers were refreshed after seeing the monsters being eliminated.

"Dead, the monster is dead!"

"Hurry up and save the others!"

"There is a centipede monster here, come and kill it!"

"Don't be afraid, we have the witch and the demon hunter, let's use our weapons to eliminate the remaining monsters."

With the backbone, everyone seemed to see hope. Except for the injured villagers who fell to the ground, everyone else picked up their weapons and chopped at the centipede monsters with thick arms on the ground.

Without the support of the big monster mother, these newly born centipede monsters could not resist the concerted efforts of humans, and the blood soon stained the ground.

Kagome breathed a sigh of relief and said to Di Nian'er with gratitude, "Thank you so much, luckily I came in time, otherwise I would have been hit by the monster."

Di Nian'er, who rarely accepts human kindness, couldn't help but blush and scratched his head, "No, you're welcome."

Kagome noticed the monster mouthparts in Di Nian'er's hand, and patted her chest with lingering fear, "Just now, I almost thought I was going to die..."

Oh, Kagome was stunned.

When he was attacked, it seemed... I saw Kikyo rushing towards him.

He turned his head and looked about fifty meters away from him, only to see Kikyo looking at him calmly.

Sure enough, what he saw before closing his eyes was not an illusion. Kagome probably guessed that the scene of being attacked by the monster just now made Kikyo worried. He raised his hand high and tried to raise a big smile, "I'm fine Kikyo... Kikyo?"

Kikyo hummed lightly, and turned away without even waiting for him to finish his words.

Kagome's raised hand retracted stiffly, the smile on her face froze on her face, and she twitched awkwardly, "Hey?"

He seemed to hear a hint of anger in that "hmm".

Angry?

She must be angry.

She felt that she couldn't just stand there, so her legs moved subconsciously.

"I have something to do with Di Nian'er, we'll talk later."

After saying hello to Di Nian'er, she caught up with Kikyo in a few steps. Kagome put her hands behind her back and carefully poked her head out to observe Kikyo's expression, but Kikyo still looked indifferent, and she couldn't see any emotion at all.

His fingers stirred restlessly, and he opened his mouth, "Kikyo, are you... angry?"

As expected, there was no response. Kagome swallowed her saliva, and her hands behind her back were tightly intertwined, almost twisted into a knot.

"... Sorry." I really didn't know what to say.

After reflecting for a long time, Kagome knew that it was inappropriate to put her body in danger just now, but some attempts are inevitable, even if it hurts.

So, you can apologize, but you don't have to not do it next time.

Kikyo heard it, she paused slightly, raised the corners of her mouth and smiled.

The smile was the largest Kagome had ever seen, but it made his heart tremble.

A sneer was not enough, Kikyo put her hand on her lips, and the half-hidden smile looked even more mocking.

"How should I say-'What are you doing? That monster has attacked you, can't you kill this monster first and then deal with the other little monsters?'"

This sentence...

Kagome blinked, it looked familiar, isn't it... the sentence that Kikyo yelled at Kikyo when she shot an arrow at the centipede monster to protect the villagers and was almost attacked by the monster's mouthparts.

Imitate his words? ?

To be honest, it's a bit embarrassing.

Kagome shrank her neck, drooped her shoulders and lowered her head to listen to Kikyo's scolding, looking like she was guilty of doing something wrong.

Seeing this, Kikyo's originally cold eyes softened a little. She wanted to teach him a lesson, but changed her words, "You said it yourself, don't you remember it?"

"What are you doing? That monster has attacked you, can't you kill it first and then deal with the other little monsters?"

——Can't you care more about yourself?

How come he forgot what he said when it came to himself? Kikyo had a headache and wanted to hold his forehead and sigh.

Kagome understood the meaning of Kikyo's words, but the most effective way was to fight head-on, as long as he was fast enough... This time it was just that his body was not used to the monster's killing intent and did not react.

He secretly raised his eyelids to glance at Kikyo, and quickly lowered his head. This idea must not be known to Kikyo. After finally looking a little calmer, he pouted and nodded quite sincerely.

"Yeah, I won't do it next time."

Sincerely admitting his mistakes and with a positive attitude, Kikyo will definitely not be angry.

Kagome gave a thumbs up in her heart, and secretly said that she must learn how to cast a barrier instantly next time, so that she would have a reason.

This guy definitely didn't realize his mistakes... A hint of astonishment flashed across Kikyo's eyes.The imperceptible annoyance came so fast that she didn't even notice the sudden emotion.

She just felt more helpless. She stared at the longbow in Kagome's hand with narrowed eyes. Was this the reason why the other party was brave?

Or was it given by her.

(Smile)

She got even angrier.

She snatched it and turned away, her hair flying, and a faint sentence floated in the air.

"Idiot."

Just as Kagome said to Kikyo.

Idiot, both of them.

"Haha..."

Kagome's hands were empty, and she groped in the air. Remembering that this bow was Kikyo's, she laughed dryly and pretended to scratch her hair awkwardly.

The slippery touch made his hair stand on end, and he quickly shook his hands. Before he could show a disgusted expression, Kagome found that his whole body was dirty, so there was no choice for him to dislike it.

His face fell immediately, absolutely! Take a shower!

-

The remaining monsters were quickly cleaned up with the help of Di Nian'er.

"Finally, it's over."

Weapons fell to the ground with clangs.

The villagers were exhausted and panting. They stretched out their bodies and collapsed on the ground. They worked hard all night, not only killed the wrong monster, but also almost got killed by the real culprit. They looked at each other in bewilderment.

Dinian'er was busy with stains all over his body. His mother-in-law wiped him and cursed, "I told you it wasn't Dinian'er who did it, but you didn't believe it and ran to my place to make a mess. If I were to say, you deserved to be eaten by the monster--"

"Mother." Dinian'er interrupted his mother's words. For the first time, he was strong and immediately stuttered again, "No, don't blame them. Don't blame them."

Everyone is a victim.

In this world, trust is too rare, especially between people and monsters.

Dinian'er is kind and clear in his heart. Because of this, he is driven to tolerate.

The villagers fell into silence. They had always been afraid of Dinian'er's monster identity, but for the first time they understood and realized it.

Di Nian'er is a good monster.

Seeing this, the grandmother sighed, "Silly children... Hey, why don't you hurry up and leave?! Do you want me, an old woman, to send you off at my age? You are shameless."

She raised her wooden stick fiercely and drove the villagers away fiercely. Her eyes stayed on Kikyo who was squatting to treat the injured villagers for a moment, "... Forget it, the injured ones stay to be treated, and the rest should go back to where they came from. Don't bother us every day, get out of here."

However, the remaining villagers had no intention of leaving. Instead, they gathered together and slowly moved in front of Di Nian'er.

This attracted the grandmother's vigilant gaze. She protected Di Nian'er behind her and gritted her teeth, "What are you doing? Do you still want to bully this child?"

Kikyo frowned, glanced at the villagers who were stopped thoughtfully, and silently lowered her head to continue the treatment.

"No... we..."

"Stop talking nonsense, get out of here!"

"That..."

"Get out, get out."

"..."As soon as the villagers opened their mouths, they were blocked by the mother-in-law's scolding, and they hung their heads helplessly.

When Kagome wiped her face and hands with leaves and rushed over, she saw Di Nian'er hiding behind her mother-in-law, thinking that the villagers wanted to kill Di Nian'er again.

"What are you doing--eh?"

As soon as they opened their mouths and turned their eyes in another direction, they saw the villagers shrinking their bodies, letting the mother-in-law's saliva spray all over them without fighting back, and they looked like they were letting the mother-in-law spit on them.

No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like they are bullying Di Nian'er and her son.

Kagome's eyes are two big question marks, what's going on?
