"Eh?"

This was really beyond Kikyo's expectation, so that he was a little speechless, Kou Ziqing said seriously:

"Because I was repelled by both humans and monsters since I was a child, my character in the demonized state is a bit extreme. After being sealed by you this time and turned into a human, I thought a lot, and suddenly felt that I came to capture the jade of the four souls. The big monster has gained status, but if this road is blocked, I might as well become a human and reintegrate into it."

"The Jade of the Four Souls is very dangerous. It is not a universal wish. Your wish may be maliciously distorted by it."

Kikyo heard Kou Ziqing's sincerity, and understood why he wanted the jade of the four souls after several battles, because the situation of the half-demon was really bad, and even though he grew up in such an environment, he was not contaminated with any blood. That is to say, the fact that people are inherently kind has been verified, which is also the reason why Kikyo tolerated his several attacks and let him go, and this time he treated him specially.

"You misunderstood. Maybe I had that obsession when I was in the half-demon form. Now, as a human being, I don't have much interest in the jade of the four souls. Miss Kikyo, please believe me. I just felt the holiness and harmony in your spiritual power." Hao Dang has warmed my body and mind, I may not be able to do what you are willing to dedicate to others, but I also want to be a good person, so that at least others can respect and love you from the bottom of their hearts."

Kou Ziqing didn't care about such nasty words, but Kikyo blushed a little when she heard it. She turned her head away and said:

"Learning spiritual power is not a way to be respected."

"Yes, but this era is in troubled times, and only those with power can protect and save other people, and I think that if I cultivate spiritual power, I can suppress my demon blood, so that I can always maintain my current human form. If I have always been half In the form of a demon, there is no room for shelter among humans."

"..."

Kikyo pondered. She is born with extremely powerful spiritual power, but she is not born with the ability to use spiritual power. Various skills have also been systematically trained. This is not something that cannot be leaked, but she has spiritual power. There are not many people with qualifications, except for Maple who is somewhat a little bit, others in Fengzhi Village are ordinary people, so Kikyo never thought that anyone would want to obtain the method of spiritual power cultivation.Sensing his determination to become a human, although Kikyo does not discriminate against being a half-demon, it is better than him wanting to seize the jade of the four souls and become a big monster.

"Yes, but spiritual power also requires aptitude, which is different from the natural use of demon power obtained from blood."

"I understand, don't look down on me, anyway, I am also a human noble, and I have read books."

Kikyo couldn't help laughing, knowledge books are the power of nobles, and most of the villagers are illiterate, even if they have spiritual aptitude, it would be troublesome to learn, and said immediately:

"In the evening, I will check your aptitude first and discuss with you the method of spiritual power cultivation."

Kikyo has to patrol around to prevent monsters from invading, and also has to help the villagers do some things, so they don't have much free time. Kou Ziqing understands:

"Then can I go around? Don't worry, I won't go to the shrine where the Jade of the Four Souls is stored. Is there still fishing here? Doesn't the fish belong to some noble property?"

"The Maple Village belongs to the mountain village, and there is no lord, so whether it is herbs or game, no one will determine their ownership."

Kou Ziqing just asked casually, but Kikyo answered seriously. Kou Ziqing said:

"Is it so free?"

Kikyo showed a wry smile on his quiet face and said:

"For the lord daimyo, those who can't pay taxes to them are wild people, but there is no such thing as freedom. If any city lord finds out and is unhappy, it is legal to send troops to destroy the place and arrest the villagers as slaves for mining. Yes, if any village wants to survive, it has never only been invaded by bandits and monsters."

Fortunately, Maple Village gave birth to a powerful maiden like Kikyo. In this world with demons and ghosts, the power to subdue demons and eliminate demons is respected even by daimyo, but there is a difference here. People from the coral family in the original On the contrary, it is similar to the witcher in The Witcher 3. Although it is useful, it is not respected. Maidens such as Kikyo, priests, and mages are orthodox. After all, Japanese temples are powerful. It is not a joke that monks and nobles rule the world together.

The existence of Maple Village is probably known, because of the existence of Kikyo, some lords and nobles have tacitly agreed that this village belongs to her. After all, Kikyo's name is not only feared by demons, but the daimyo has also heard of her existence.

Kou Ziqing has played a little bit of Taiko, and watched a lot of Japanese comics. He also knows a little bit about the history of this country. Of course, although Inuyasha is from the background of the Warring States Period, it is similar to overhead, and there are not many celebrities from the Warring States Period, such as Oda. Nobunaga and the like, but in a certain chapter, the princess of the Takeda family appeared, who married the castellan, but the castellan was possessed by a monster.

"Jikyo, do you intend to manage this village?"

Kikyo shakes her head and she is not a nobleman. You can tell from the name that only nobles have surnames in Japan. Although Kikyo is a nice name, it is just a first name without a surname. Her words worked, but as a woman and a shrine maiden, she really never thought about managing anything.

"Then I suggest adding the village to a certain lord, because subduing demons and demons is very dangerous. Even you may die one day. Without your protection, demons and so on will be fine. Those lords will not let it go At least this village can increase some taxes and population."

"There was no lord who wanted Maple Village before."

"I didn't know or didn't like it before, but now I know it and your existence makes it so stable and populous here. I saw that there are at least three hundred stones, which is enough to reward a high-ranking warrior as a territory to win people's hearts."

"This……"

The stone Kou Ziqing mentioned refers to the high stone system of the Warring States Period in Japan. Stone is a unit of volume, and high means height and degree. Here it refers to quantity.For daimyo and samurai, "Shi Gao" is the benchmark for granting and receiving fiefdoms (or Lumi) and undertaking military service, that is, the Shi Gao Zhixing System.

"People have short-term worries without long-term worries. The villagers put all their hopes on you. Didn't they think that after you die, the demons will vent their anger and slaughter the village? So if you really have no sense of rights, use the people who are still alive Find a suitable lord with reputation and strength. Although monsters are scary, this world belongs to humans. Not to mention witches, mages, and priests, the army alone can slaughter some small and medium-sized monsters, which is enough to protect Maple Village. "

Kikyo's quiet face showed a very moving expression, looked at Kou Ziqing for a while, then bit his teeth and said:

"Inuyasha, you are completely different after becoming a human. Even if you become a big demon in your demon blood state, I am not afraid, but your current human form regards knowledge as power, which is something I don't have. .”

Kou Ziqing grinned and said:

"The most powerful thing in human beings has never been force. In fact, just as I was about to say, you, a world-renowned witch, are nothing."

"..."

Kikyo was a little angry when someone said it for the first time, Kou Ziqing said sternly:

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not belittling your identity and strength, I'm saying that your power doesn't have much effect on the current world where demons are flying all over the sky. If you really want to eradicate demons, it's better to end this Warring States period and unify the world, then There is no place for any demons and ghosts to gain a foothold."

Kikyo looked at Kou Ziqing with beautiful eyes, and said for a long time:

"Yes, if the world is peaceful, no new monsters will be born. This truth is very simple, but I have never thought about it before. I remembered that the Lord God said that three people must have my teacher. Inuyasha, you are indeed a master." People are better."

"Don't call me Inuyasha in my human form, um... just call me Izayoyo."

Shiliuya is the surname of Inuyasha's mother, and Qing is taken from Kou Ziqing's real name, but the physical body in this world is not the original one, and Kou Ziqing is also planning to go to the village to do as the Romans do, Kikyo was stunned for a moment, and smiled cleverly:

"He has a name and a surname, he is really the young master of a nobleman."

Chapter 3 The power of ghosts and gods

After some conversations, Kikyo's impression of Kou Ziqing has changed. He was an impatient young man when he was a half-demon. Although Xincun had kind thoughts, but his words and deeds tried his best to follow the set of monsters and the weak, but now he is a man with a sense of purpose. A young man with knowledge and insight may become a generation of sages if he practices in a monastery.

Many cultural people in this era came from temples. Although Japan’s Middle Ages were not as controlled by religion as in Europe, they were still very influential. Unlike China’s Buddhist sects, which were hit by several Buddhist extermination operations, they were much more peaceful. In fact Oda Nobunaga is known as the sixth demon king. What he did was far worse than destroying Buddha, but he made this demon known for hundreds of years.

Kou Ziqing left after chatting with Kikyo for a while. Although he wanted to see more of Kikyo and talk to her, he couldn’t be too abrupt. , he has plenty of time to get along with Kikyo and change each other's fate.

"I don't know if Kikyo has saved the soil spider at this time."
