Reborn as Platycodon, an infinite journey begins from Demon Slayer

"Also, prepare an ox cart." Kikyo said.

"Yes, I will make arrangements immediately!" Songbei Zhihao said respectfully.

Only then did the two girls, Platycodon and Xueli, leave and rush towards the river.

The sun is setting, dusk is approaching, and it’s time to encounter evil.

The demonic hour, that is, the dusk hour, is a supernatural period. Onmyodo in Sakura Province is called the time when demons and demons are most likely to appear. It is also the time when humans and demons and demons can appear at the same time.

To put it simply, the chaos caused by the alternation of yin and yang causes the two realms of yin and yang to overlap, allowing the demons and monsters in the yin realm to come out.

The time of coming out will last from the time of dusk when encountering demons to the time of encountering demons at dawn, because the night itself is cloudy, and there will be many monsters coming out to wreak havoc, but the time of encountering demons is only dusk and dawn.

That's why Sakura Province's Onmyodo says that from dusk to dawn, it's the time to encounter demons, and a hundred ghosts walk at night.

......

Dusk hour.

The river not far outside the city, under the setting sun, is dyed with a thin layer of golden-red light, which seems to be particularly beautiful. But it seemed a little strange at this time.

"Gela...Gela...Gela..."

An ox cart was driving slowly in the distance. The strong ox took steady steps and pulled the cart steadily.

At this time, there was no one by the river, only the sound of oxcarts driving by.

"What's in the river is..."

Xueli, who was standing in the distance, looked towards the river with a determined look. She saw a thin figure hiding under the water, staring closely at the bullock cart and getting ready to go.

"It is indeed a kappa, with godhood, but it is a pity that he has become a fallen angel. The evil aura we sensed when we passed by before should be him." Kikyo's eyes narrowed and she saw the kappa in the river clearly.

Kappa is a well-known monster in folklore in Sakura Province. It is also said that he originated from the upper reaches of the Yellow River Basin of Longteng Kingdom. In ancient times, he was called "Water Tiger", also known as "Hebo". "You Ming Lu" records that this creature is called "water insect", also known as "worm boy" or "water spirit".

It is said that the kappa has the beak of a bird, the limbs of a frog, the body of a monkey and the shell of a turtle, like a combination of many animals.

Its weak point is the saucer above its head. As long as the kappa is tricked into bending over and letting the water in the saucer above his head drain out, he will lose all his energy.

Originally, the kappa was a spirit in the water, and was worshiped as a river god by the people. There is a saying that the kappa is the messenger of the water god, and others say that he is the incarnation of the water god, transformed by the frost dropped by the water god.

suddenly!

The kappa's arms in the river grew longer, stretched out of the water, and grabbed the cow's feet. The kappa's strength was so great that even a strong cow couldn't compete with him. The entire ox cart was dragged into the river without any resistance.

Seeing that the time was right, Platycodon made a hand gesture with both hands. The two people on the bullock cart suddenly turned into chains to restrain the kappa. Platycodon stretched out her hand and grabbed the chain, and the chains immediately flew into her hand. With a strong pull, the kappa was pulled to the ground. ashore.

I saw a thin body of about 1 meter, like an ape, with disheveled hair and a strong foul smell all over its body. It glared at Kikyo and Xueli with sharp eyes.

At this moment, the power in Kappa's body exploded and was colliding with the chains that bound him. The two forces collided and were stalemate for a while. In the end, the chains were shattered by Kappa, but his breath was also much weaker.

"I see, using the power of the godhead to forcefully break away from the constraints..."

Kikyo frowned slightly. She didn't expect that the kappa would be so aggressive and use this method to escape from trouble. This would cause damage to the godhead.

"It seems that we can't use restraint and other spells, lest the other party loses everything." Platycodon just gave up the restraint and other spells after thinking about it for a moment.

"Master, please leave this battle to me!"

Just as Kikyo was about to take action, the bracelet transformed into Kiyohime, with a serious expression on her face. This was her first battle to become a shikigami, and she would never allow herself to fail.

"...Okay, I'll leave it to you, Qingji." Kikyo was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a smile.

"Yes, I will offer you the wine of victory!" Qing Ji said with a smile.
