I was spotted by the big guy in Ping An Jing

On the first day, without seeing Hitomi Kuwashima, Tamamo told herself that she might have gone out to exorcise demons.

(Speaking of being so weak, why don’t you run away to get rid of some demons and stay in the shrine obediently?)

The next day, before returning, Yuzao told himself that maybe this demon head is stronger.

On the third day, Tamamo told himself that this little bastard might have gone somewhere to play.

Day four, probably on the way back.

……

A week later, Tamamomae could no longer find a reason.

"Hey, puppy."

"Slightly slightly slightly slightly~" The little tengu stuck out its tongue at him and flew away.

Yuzao was so angry that his teeth itched, "This stinky dog...!"

"Hello, woman."

Yu Zao called Qing Ya again: "What about the little girl?"

Because Hitomi Kuwashima told everything before leaving, Qingmei also knew what happened before Tamamo.Although she is fierce towards Hitomi Sang Dao on the surface, she actually loves this little sister very much in her heart.

"Oh, she's gone," Qing Ya said blankly, "She said she doesn't want to see you anymore, so she won't come back."

Before Tamamo: "..."

Qing Ya observed the other party's face for a moment, "I lied to you."

Before Tamamo: "..."

Why are there people like this around the little girl? !

"However, it will take some time for her to come back." Qing Ya tidied up the painted horses hanging on the shelf, then turned to ask him, "Why, do you miss her?"

"Wh-who said he missed that brat!"

Qing Ya thought for a while, "If you do things for me, I will praise you in front of her."

Yu Zaoqian smiled angrily: "... who cares."

"In this way, she might come to you on her own initiative when she comes back."

Before Tamamo: "..."

A little shaken.

"I'll have time to play with you. Otherwise..." Qing Ya gestured to the accumulated divine affairs, "I don't know when I will be back to deal with it."

"..."

In the end, Tamamomae gave in.

He was sitting upright in front of the table, writing on the scroll with a brush, with a displeased face, but the strokes he wrote were smooth and beautiful.

Why do I do this kind of thing...

The majestic son of Tianhu, he was willing to degenerate to the point of being a part-time envoy of a little-known shrine.

No, this is just to complete the love robbery mission!

By the way, when will the little girl come back... It's over, won't she come back in a year? !

Do you want to change yourself?

But who would it be? Those human women on the street were so unmotivated to think about it, they didn't even bother to move their fingers.

"..."

Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooty ! !

Flip the table!

Behind the door, Qingya looked at Yuzao's back and chuckled lightly.

He said no, but his body was very honest.

***

Taisho——

Hitomi Kuwashima slipped to the Zhuhe meeting place with ease.

She stands by the side of the house.A strange voice came from the front——

"Hey, you are not small, you, Ubuyashiki-sama. Treat the players as pawns that you throw away when you run out."

"You've never studied martial arts, right? You can tell just by looking at it. The leader of the ghost killing team is such a guy? It's disgusting."

"--Do not make jokes!"

Who the heck, who is the top brother, said this to the lord? !

Hitomi Kuwashima's blood surged up!

I'm going to kill that little ruffian! ! !

She raised the sword and wanted to rush out, but was held down by a few "Yin".

"Master Sang Dao, please calm down!!!"

"The meeting is still going on—"

"My lord will find a solution!"

Hitomi Kuwashima, who was pinned to the ground like a salted fish: "..."

"Got it, let me go."

This outrageous young man named Immortal Kawasami, recently killed one of the lower strings and became the new pillar of the Demon Slayer Squad.

This is his first time participating in a Zhuhe meeting.

His companion was killed, and seeing the leader of the Ghost Slayer Squad standing high above him and not having to go to the battlefield to die, it was inevitable that he felt dissatisfied and misunderstood.But in the end, he was still overwhelmed by the protagonist's personality charm.

Of course, at the end of the meeting, Immortal Chuan Shiya was also talked about by other Wei Zhu.

Hua Zhu: "Why do you say that, it's too hurtful."

Yanzhu: "Have you been possessed by an evil spirit? Let me help you exorcise the evil spirit."

Yinzhu: "There's no one like you. It's not gorgeous to say such things when we meet for the first time!"

Shui Zhu: ...What are you talking about?

"My lord—"

Hitomi Kuwashima ran over.

"...!"

Ubuyashiki Yoya showed a reassuring smile on his face, "Is Hitomi back?"

Running closer, Hitomi Kuwashima's heart twisted slightly.

The lord's eyes...has one of them completely lost sight?

Like the rest of the Demon Slayer Squad, Hitomi Kuwashima is also very worried about the health of the lord.But the lord's illness is said to be a disease, more like a family curse, which cannot be cured.

...Damn it, she wanted to beat that guy up again!

"Sister Tongtong!" The two children behind the lord called out.

Hitomi Kuwashima smiled and touched his head: "Hika and Teriya have grown so big."

By the way, Teriya, why do you wear women's clothing like your older sister Hika...

After a few pillars taught the immortal Kawasami, he also came over and surrounded her.

Huazhu: "Xiaotong is back...that's great."

Yinzhu: "It's really gorgeous to be able to come back alive."

Yan Zhu: "Namo Amitabha... have you been entangled by monsters..."

Hitomi Sang Dao automatically ignored the last words of Beiming Yu Xingming: "Sister Kanae! Brother Tianyuan! Brother Beiming Yu!"

There is a warm feeling in my heart.

From the moment I saw the familiar "family", the coldness, strangeness and sadness I felt alone in Heian-kyo disappeared.

Yoshiyuki Tomioka: "...?"

Did you forget someone?

"Master, how long has it been here?" Hitomi Kuwashima asked.

The speed of time flow is different on both sides.

"Half a year."

"so……"

Hitomi Kuwashima looked at Yashiki Yoya, and the other party understood: "Did you encounter any difficulties in Heian-kyo?"

"Well...it's not serious, but the situation is a bit strange."

"I see," said Miyayashiki Yoya, "Hitomi was tired just after coming back, so let's take a rest first. Then come to me again."

"Good~"

The lord is still so considerate.

"That's right, my lord, please stay here first, I brought you a gift—" Hitomi Kuwashima showed a farmer's bumper harvest expression, "Look!"

Yuhao Tianyuan watched in shock as "Yin" moved the pile high up on the hill: "Did you evacuate the entire Heian capital...?"

Hitomi Kuwashima brought kimonos for the five children of the lord, and jewelry for Mrs. Tian Yin, and as for the lord...

"This is an omamori from the most famous shrine in the capital. It is said that it is superspiritual! I hope... I hope it can bless you in good health."

Thinking of this makes me a little sad.

The demon world... for monsters, is there any way to do it?

Hitomi Kuwashima didn't think about it any more, "Miss Kanae, here are butterfly hair accessories for you and Shinobu, and cakes from the capital!"

Butterfly Kanae has a younger sister, Butterfly Shinobi, who is one year younger than Hitomi Kuwashima. She is 14 this year and has a good relationship with her.

Butterfly Chanae smiled softly: "Thank you sister."

"Brother Beimingyu, these are the rosary beads for you! The monks in the temple consecrated them, isn't it amazing!"

"Namo Amitabha...Thank you."

"Where's Brother Ihe?"

"I went away to do a mission, and I guess it will take some time before I can come back." Yuhao Tianyuan replied.

"Really..." Hitomi Sangshima looked regretful, "I also brought him snake gall wine."

"...Do you want to be killed by him?"

"Where is Brother Purgatory, is he at home now?"

Although Purgatory Xingshou Lang is not Zhu Zhu yet, he has a good relationship with everyone.Yan Zhu of the first generation, the father of Xing Shoulang in Purgatory, resigned from the position of Yan Zhu for some reason.Brother Purgatory worked harder after that, and he should be on the pillar soon.

Butterfly Chana Hui: "He is doing a task outside and hasn't come back yet."

"That's it...then I'll go find him later!"

Hitomi Kuwashima pointed to the birdcage on the pile of gifts: "Look! I brought an owl to their house!"

Everyone: "???"

Yuhao Tianyuan was shocked: "Did you go on a trip?!"

"What?! I'm working hard to kill ghosts, okay? I'm the only one! And I've been killed by demons..."

There was a sudden stop.

"Being demon...?" Yu Mao Tianyuan noticed something was wrong, and stopped joking, "What's wrong?"

Hitomi Kuwashima shook his head: "Nothing."

"Brother Tianyuan, this is a gift for you."

"What?" Yuhao Tianyuan looked at the things in the box strangely, "Why did you bring me medicinal materials?"

There's nothing wrong with him.

"Amitabha..." Beiming Yu Xingming clasped his hands together and said beside him, "Deer antler, Cordyceps sinensis, tonifies kidney yang, nourishes essence and blood, strengthens muscles and bones..."

Yujun Tianyuan: "..."

"Haha, so what..." Hitomi Sang Dao rubbed the back of his head and laughed dryly, "Brother Tianyuan has three wives, I think you might... ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh it's super expensive!!!"

"Does my God of Rituals need such a non-flashy thing! I think you are out of order!"

"Don't run! Stop! Where did you learn these things?!"

Isn't Heian-kyo a very elegant and conservative era!

The lord tried to dissuade: "Tianyuan, Tongtong is still a child..."

Yuhao Tianyuan: "Master, you are the only one who thinks this way!!!"

Lord: "..."

finally--

"Yi Yong—"

Hitomi Kuwashima pushed the bag on her head and called weakly.

"...?"

Yoshiyuki Tomioka tilted his head slightly, looking at her with a paralyzed expression.

Hitomi Kuwashima opened the biggest box.

"Wang!"

A small white firewood was carried out by her.

"???"

This is for him... a dog?

Giyuu is confused.

Hitomi Kuwashima patted the dog's head.

I wanted to send a smarter fox, but unfortunately I didn't catch it.To be exact, it was Yuzao who prevented her from being caught.

What, making the scarf is just a joke for her!

"So cute, this dog."

"The fur is so white and soft."

Headed by Butterfly Kanae, several pillars gathered.Even Immortal Kawasami quietly glanced here.

"That's right, it's super cute!" Hitomi Sangshima was very proud, "And it has a very docile personality, even if a stranger touches it, it won't bite, it's very clingy."

Bai Chai opened his big black eyes, and would lick the hands of those who touched him, which made the Zhu Zhu feel very fond of him.

"Here you—" Hitomi Kuwashima handed it over.

Yoshiyuki Tomioka was about to take over.

Bai Chai let out a threatening growl from his throat, and immediately turned a little angel into a demon.

Tomioka Yoshiyuki:! ! !

The situation is not right!

run!

"Wow woof woof woof!!!" Bai Chai chased after him.

After running ten laps around the courtyard, one person and one dog, Bai Chai bit Tomioka Yoshiyuki's ass.

Hitomi Kuwashima: "..."

In the end, the white firewood was taken away by Immortal Kawasami.

After confirming that all the gifts had been delivered, Hitomi Kuwashima went to the lord's mansion.

The most important thing is to report what happened in Heian-kyo and decide what to do next according to the lord's order.

Just before entering the house, a small episode happened.

"—Sister Tianyin?"

Hitomi Kuwashima looked at Tianyin who was wet all over in disbelief: "What's going on, what happened?"

fell into the water?Was splashed?

But Mrs. Tianyin is gentle and noble, it is hard to imagine this kind of thing happening to her.

"...It's nothing," Ubuyashiki Amane said gently, "It's good that Hitomi can come back safely, Yaozai has been very worried about you."

"Someone did it on purpose, didn't they?"

Hitomi Sangshima realized something, and his face changed, "Sister Tianyin, tell me, what happened?"

Ubuyashiki Amane sighed.

Hitomi Kuwashima sometimes seems careless, but in fact he has a keen mind.

And he has a deep affection for the Ghost Slayer Squad, otherwise he would not agree to go to Heianjing.She guessed that if she didn't say anything, she would keep asking.

"Master Yaozai found the offspring of the swordsman who used the Breath of the Sun and the Breath of the Moon," said Ubuyashiki Amane, "The two children live on Jingxin Mountain, their parents are dead, and the two brothers depend on each other for life."

"There are a lot of ghosts nearby, so it's extremely unsafe. So, Lord Yaozai wants to recruit them into the ghost killing team."

Hitomi Kuwashima frowned: "They don't want to?"

Ubuyashiki Amane didn't speak, but Hitomi Kuwashima already knew the answer.

If you don't want to, you don't want to, why are you still pouring water on people.

"I'll go with you next time, Sister Tianyin!" Hitomi Sang Dao said, "Tell me about their situation later!"

Ubuyashiki Amane hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"By the way, Miss Tianyin, can you give me some 'evil spirit retreat' talisman papers?" Hitomi Sangshima said with a serious expression, "When I was in Heianjing, I was entangled by strange guys."

"..." Ubuyashiki Amane, "OK."

Inside the house, Hitomi Kuwashima saw Yoya Ubuyashiki.

"Following my lord's wishes, I have stayed in Ping An Jing for more than three months. During these three months, there have been many low-level ghosts in Ping An Jing and its surroundings. Their abilities are not strong, and they are basically below the lower third."

"But the number of ghosts is more difficult to manage. Usually, after killing a batch, new ghosts appear a few days later."

During the report, Hitomi Kuwashima lost the energy of laughing and scolding before, and his calm and serious appearance was similar to when he was using a knife.

After all, the matter of killing ghosts is related to the lives of many people, and there is no room for carelessness.

"Since there are already ghosts, it means that in the 20 years of Yanxi, Guiwu Tsuji has been transformed into a ghost and has been able to turn others into ghosts through blood. Unfortunately, in the past three months, no trace of Guiwu Tsuji has been found. "

Hitomi Kuwashima lowered his head guiltily.

Ordinarily, at the beginning, Wu Mi was not so stubborn, and his aura was stronger than ordinary ghosts, so it should be easier to find.

"You did a good job, little pupil," the lord said softly, "You saved the lives of many people in Heianjing."

"Yes..." Hitomi Kuwashima was slightly relieved.

Really good at comforting people, my lord.

Listening to the lord speak, there will be a feeling of lightness in the mind.

"Little Hitomi, you can't feel the breath of Oni Wu Tsuji at all?"

"Yes."

After a moment of silence, Yoya Ubuyashiki spoke slowly, but it was like a heavy fist in Hitomi Kuwashima's heart.

"—Little Tong, have you ever thought about this possibility: Gui Wu Tsuji Wu Mi, hasn't turned into a ghost at all."

"What—" Hitomi Sangshima wanted to retort subconsciously, "but someone else has already become a ghost..."

"Oni Mai Tsuji Mumi turned into a ghost through a certain opportunity in the Heian period. In other words, anyone in the Heian period had the opportunity to come into contact with this opportunity."

Anyone can become a ghost directly.

"—?!"

"Our Demon Killing Team didn't have any relevant information. And the 'opportunity' disappeared after that. Perhaps it was the innocent actions of Onimai Tsuji, in order to ensure his own control over the ghosts."

Hitomi Kuwashima was in shock, and had a feeling of "it's not impossible".

correct……

"The blue other shore flower!"

Yuya Mibuyashiki smiled: "...Huh?"

"In the place where the ghost appeared, I found the blue Higan flower!" Hitomi Kuwashima said excitedly, "Maybe it has something to do with it!"

"Is the blue flower from the other side..." Yoya Ubuyashiki pondered.

Never heard of it.

"I understand," the lord's voice has a reassuring force, "I will send someone to investigate the news about the 'Blue Flower of the Other Side'. Before going back, Xiaotong should have a good rest."

Hitomi Kuwashima dragged his tone: "Yes~~~"

Before leaving, she suddenly remembered something, and turned her head to ask: "My lord, has the ghost killing team cooperated with monsters before, that is to say, did you encounter any monsters when killing ghosts in the past?"

Yuya Miyayashiki was slightly stunned: "...a monster?"

"Hmm..." Hitomi Kuwashima nodded, and decided to tell the truth, "In order to gain access to more information on abnormal events, I have a disguised identity as a witch in Heian-kyo."

Absolutely, absolutely not want to play witch cosplay or something.

Hitomi Kuwashima scratched his head: "There were quite a lot of monsters in that era, and some monsters seemed to be able to eliminate ghosts without using a Japanese sword... I was wondering if monsters participated in the battles in the past."

"Maybe we can also ask youkai to help. Because compared to humans, youkai's physique is more able to compete with ghosts... Ah, of course, this is just my simple idea, and more careful consideration is needed before this."

Miko... huh...

When hearing these two words, Ubuyashiki Yaoya's eyelashes trembled slightly.

He looked up and smiled at Hitomi Sangshima: "The monsters no longer exist. Even if they exist, they will not appear in the world, and we will not see them."

Hitomi Kuwashima thought for a while, "...that's true."

***

Afterwards, Hitomi Kuwashima went to Mt. Jingxin a few times with Umanyashiki Amane, and probably figured out the situation——

The two descendants are twins, the older brother is called Shitou Ichiro, and the younger brother is called Shitou Muichiro. After the death of their parents, the two brothers continue to make a living by cutting wood and relying on each other.

The younger brother is kind and helpful, and he is eager to become a ghost killer, but he is repeatedly stopped by his bad attitude.

My brother was very disgusted with going to kill ghosts.

In fact, I can also understand that in the eyes of my brother, they are just ordinary children with no talent, and they still go to kill ghosts?This is to die!

"Didn't I tell you not to come?! We won't kill ghosts! If you come again, it won't be water!"

"This is too much, brother!"

"Shut up, Muichiro, you don't understand anything! Go back!"

It was the third time that she helped Amane Shiki, the maternity house, to leave the house. Hitomi Kuwashima looked back at the pair of brothers who were quarreling behind and made a decision.

"Sister Tianyin, leave the work of persuasion to me alone," Hitomi Sangshima said, "just looking for something to do before returning to Heianjing. You can continue to deal with the internal affairs of the Demon Slayer Squad, and don't come here anymore. "

She didn't want to see sister Tianyin being wronged like this again.

Although with the agility of a swordsman, the water splashed by Tokito Ichiro can be easily blocked, but that attitude is still irritating.

Ubuyashiki Amane: "But..."

"Don't worry, I have a solution!" Hitomi Sangshima patted his chest and promised, "They will definitely join in willingly!"

Unable to resist her, Ubuyashiki Amane finally nodded in agreement.

So, one sunny day, Hitomi Sang Dao came to Jingxin Mountain.

"Why are you here again?!" Seeing her, Tokito Ichiro exploded, "Didn't I say—"

"Not joining the Demon Slayer Squad, yes yes yes, I know," Hitomi Kuwashima stopped him, "I won't persuade you any more, this time I'm here for something else."

"..." Shi Touichiro's face softened slightly, and he asked suspiciously, "What do you want to do???"

"Well..." Hitomi Kuwashima shifted his gaze to behind Tokichi Ichiro, and Muichiro with a disturbed face was walking over.

In a flash, she appeared in front of Tokito Muichiro, and took out the rose hidden behind her.

"—Actually, I've taken a fancy to your brother."

The author has something to say: Tong Tong is the favorite of the Ghost Killing Team.

Tamamo was about to cry.

future--

"Little ghost, did you have a good time?" A sneer approached.

Hitomi Kuwashima: "..."
