The field house is not far from Higurashi Shrine, less than an hour's drive.

Standing on the stone steps less than ten meters away from the entrance of the shrine, Suzuki Aoi stopped and looked up at the red-painted wooden pillars.On the pillars standing on both sides of the road, there is a slightly crude but very simple plaque, with the words 'Sunset Shrine' written on it.

A gust of wind blew, slightly lifting up the two's loose long hair.

Shiba Jingji walked forward at the same pace as usual, but when he realized that his companions were not following, he turned around and looked at Suzuki Aoi, condescending.

"What's the matter? Are you hesitating at the door?"

Aoi Suzuki shook her head lightly, she retracted her eyes and followed the pace of Jingji Ba.

The Higurashi Shrine no longer has a real manager, and it has only been preserved as a cultural protection area to this day.At the same time, since monsters often appear in this area, the monster extermination master has reached an agreement with the local management agency, and no one is allowed to enter the shrine unless a special application is made.

The last time the shooting was done, it was because the publishing house contacted the Ba Clan and some Ba Jingji's guarantee that they were allowed to temporarily use the shrine as a shooting location.

Stepping into this shrine again, Suzuki Aoi experienced the isolated atmosphere here more deeply than last time.

The two walked to the side of the bone eating well one after the other.

Chang Jingji looked down at the dark bottom of the well and asked, "Miss Suzuki, what do you want to do?"

"Come here specially, in the situation where many spiritual practitioners and demon masters have found nothing... What are you going to do?"

Suzuki Aoi didn't immediately answer Shizuka's question.She put her hands on the edge of the well, leaned forward slightly, closed her eyes, and felt the same...even stronger attraction from the bottom of the well.

The cold wind came out from the bottom of the well and hit her face.

After a long while, Suzuki Aoi opened his eyes again, staring at the black area at the bottom of the well with pale eyes, and said, "The Bone-eating Well is a device that can travel through time and space——Have Mr. Dechang heard of this saying?"

"Through time and space..." Chang Jingsi tilted his head slightly, and looked at Suzuki Aoi with his phoenix eyes that were not covered by the spell, "This kind of statement is interesting."

"However, traveling through time and space only exists in legends for today's human beings." Even spiritual practitioners can at best predict the future, but cannot do this.

Aoi Suzuki obviously had doubts about what she said.

Suzuki Aoi didn't care about Ma Jingji's attitude, and continued: "Mr. Deba, if I can't come back for a while, please tell my mother so that she doesn't have to worry."

This is the direction that fate has guided her, and it is something that must be resolved.Although she didn't know what was waiting for her in front of her, but... she would definitely come back—to return to this world where there was already a bond.

After the words fell, the blond girl stretched her hands and jumped lightly. Under the rare surprised gaze of Chang Jingsi, she jumped down the bone eating well without hesitation.

A glaring white light gushed out from the bottom of the well, and Chang Jingsi raised his hands in front of his eyes, narrowing his eyes that were not covered by the spell.When the white light dissipated, he looked towards the bottom of the well, but he didn't see Suzuki Aoi and her guardian spirit, nor did he hear the echo of heavy objects falling to the ground.

The man's slender eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he jumped down after hesitating for a moment.After touching the bottom, it was the same as usual, only seeing rotten dead branches and leaves, as if the dazzling light just now was just his illusion.

"Traveling through time and space..." Chang Jingsi raised his index finger and rubbed it on the chin - although he still couldn't find out the secret of this well, he had a good harvest.

"Master Patriarch!"

The anxious shouts of his subordinates came from above.They have been following Chang Jingsi to prevent the Patriarch from being in danger.

"I'm fine." Chang Jingsi looked up and saw that the rope that had been prepared had been lowered.

He is indeed fine, but... he cannot guarantee whether the girl named Suzuki Aoi and her guardian spirit are okay.

......

In the pure white space, the boy who had been sleeping all this time opened his eyes.He has long golden hair, looks very good, and has a kind of indistinguishable beauty.

He stood up, raised his head and looked directly above, as if sensing something, he stretched out his hands upwards, and firmly caught the blond girl who was slowly falling.

The girl's face was ninety percent similar to his.At this moment, she is closing her eyes tightly, her thin eyebrows are slightly furrowed, as if she is uncomfortable with the surrounding environment.A white egg floated above her chest, emitting an extremely warm light.

Putting the girl on the ground, he squatted down, put his hands on his knees to support his chin, and lowered his eyes to stare at the unconscious girl.

"Sure enough, it's still too early..."

After thinking for a moment, he stretched out his hand to hold the guardian egg that had lost its pattern floating above the girl's body, and then pushed the egg into her chest.

Like a stone thrown into a lake, the white guardian egg easily integrated into the girl's body—as a key to control power, it is more useful to exist in the owner's body.

The name Suzuki Aoi has been recognized by the girl, and she has been living in that world as a human being.But the human body is too fragile, without the help of this key, it is impossible to control the gradually awakening power.

The shape of the key is determined by the owner's consciousness, so as to better accompany the owner.The guardian egg is not a real guardian egg, the guardian spirit is just the existence form of the key given by the girl's consciousness in that world.

After the key entered her body, the girl's frowning brows relaxed again, as if she didn't feel so uncomfortable.Her eyelashes trembled slightly, as if she was about to wake up.

Seeing this, the corners of the boy's mouth curled up slightly, and he reached out to caress the golden hair on her forehead.

"Find your own power in this world." This is a world where demons are rampant, and the power in the body does not need to be suppressed.

Seeming to have thought of something again, the young man added, "If you want your guardian spirit to return to your side, then keep getting stronger."

"When you are so strong that you no longer need the key, she will return to you."

After finishing speaking, the white space shattered in an instant, with the cloudless blue sky and the luxuriant branches of cherry blossom trees overhead.The blond boy also disappeared as the pure white space shattered.

"Sister! There's someone there!" A little girl wearing a bamboo hat trotted over, stopped in front of Suzuki Aoi, and then turned her head to wave to the black-haired girl not far away from her.

The one that the little girl calls her older sister is a shrine maiden named Kikyo who is incomparably outstanding both in appearance and temperament.As a witch, Kikyo is not only accomplished in curing diseases, but also a very famous monster extermination expert with powerful spiritual power.

Fame and wealth are at her fingertips, but she prefers to guard a small village all the time, and the most frequent thing she does is go up the mountain to collect herbs and treat patients.If there is a commission to eliminate demons, he never refuses.

Everyone respected her very much, but they dared not approach her.The girl named Feng is her younger sister and her only relative.Also because of the existence of Feng, this witch who is more like a god has a little more popularity.

Hearing Feng's voice, Kikyo picked up the small bamboo basket containing herbs and walked to her side.

Lying in front of Maple was a blond girl wearing strange clothes.If such an outstanding appearance is ignored here, the end will be clear at a glance.

What's more, those robbers would not let go of even an ordinary-looking woman or even a child.

Without hesitation, Kikyo put down the bamboo basket and picked up Suzuki Aoi, "Feng, please take these herbs."

"Hmm!" The little girl didn't reject the matter of helping in the slightest, she hugged the bamboo basket in her arms, and followed Kikyo towards the village.

......

I couldn't move my whole body, and I couldn't even open my eyes.In a blur of consciousness, Suzuki Aoi heard someone tell her that she must become stronger in order for Mitsuha to return to her side.

Mitsuha... Mitsuha she...

Consciousness regained consciousness, Suzuki Aoi opened his eyes with difficulty, and vaguely saw a black-haired girl.She was holding a small bowl and was stirring it with a wooden spoon, and the room was filled with the smell of medicinal herbs.

"You're awake." Seeing that she had opened her eyes, Kikyo put the medicine bowl aside and put her hand on Suzuki Aoi's back to help her up.Afterwards, he picked up the medicine bowl again, scooped up the decoction inside with a small wooden spoon, put it in front of his mouth and blew gently, and handed it to the girl's lips.

Suzuki Aoi could feel that she couldn't even raise her hand, and it was very difficult for her to speak.She was very familiar with this feeling, it was like this when she often went to the hospital before meeting Sanye.

However, there are some differences from that time - now she is healthy and does not have any ailments.It's more like... the feeling of the soul being bound in an unsuitable body, which needs to be gradually adapted.

The spiritual power in the body is more abundant than before, and there is even a trend of increasing.Although she can't move, she can use these powers at will and protect herself.

And Mitsuba...

The warm current coming from the heart indicated that Sanye was sleeping in her body at the moment.She is very familiar with the power of Mitsuba.She wanted to raise her hand to hold her chest, but found that she couldn't control her limbs at all.

The voice told that Mitsuba would reappear only when she became stronger——stronger... how powerful is it?No one told her this standard.

But just like making the decision to jump into the bone well, she couldn't raise doubts about that voice.It's almost like... the call of fate.

But she is not such a reckless and trusting character.What's even more strange is that she didn't feel any negative emotions about Sanye's deep sleep.The only thought left is to become stronger, and then wake up Sanye again.

Lowering her eyes, Aoi Suzuki opened her mouth slightly, and swallowed the spoonful of soup that the girl handed over—but just this kind of action had used almost all of her strength.

Possess power, but cannot control the body.This feeling...is really subtle.
