[Inuyasha] Miko and Youkai

In the dead of night, moonlight crept in through the window.

Holly was sitting against the wall under the window, her back was pressed against the wall, the coolness spread through her whole body through the thin maiden uniform, and she couldn't help shivering slightly with her fingertips twice.The temperatureless moonlight shone on her side face, outlining the beautiful outline of a girl with a bit of tranquility.

Mao was sleeping next to her.It's not appropriate to say that she was sleeping. She opened her eyes, but there was no trace of sleepiness in her bright eyes.

The moonlight is cold and the night is quiet.

She stared at Holly for a long time, then gently tugged at her sleeve.Holly looked down at her.

"What's wrong?" There was such a question in her eyes.

"What are you thinking?" Mao didn't speak, but wrote in Dongqing's palm.

"I'm thinking about...a very strange thing." Dongqing paused for a while before writing, "The village chief, Akiko, and that shrine."

"Do you think there is a problem?"

"There are a lot of problems." Holly frowned, and the sliding speed of her fingertips slowed down, scratching Maou a little itchy, "And don't you think this village is too quiet?"

Yes, the village is too quiet.It stands to reason that a medium-sized village like this would have some human voices anyway, but nothing can be heard here.

"It's really too quiet." Mao nodded.

"I doubt here..." Dongqing was about to write something more, but heard a scream in the silent night. She and Mao looked at each other, and immediately jumped up from the ground and rushed towards the direction of the shrine.

Naturally, the shrine was still the same shrine during the day, but the barrier covering it disappeared for unknown reasons.Before they got close, a black shadow with a strong evil spirit suddenly rushed out from the shrine and rushed towards the two of them.Mao quickly picked up the bow and set the arrow, loosened his fingers at the black shadow, and shot out the magic-breaking arrow with spiritual power.The blue spiritual power burned the monster's body like a flame, and the black shadow gradually turned into a spirit in the air with an unwilling scream.

No, it's not over yet!

The moment this thought flashed through Dongqing's mind, four or five dark shadows rushed out of the shrine immediately.She recited the incantation silently in her heart, picked up the talisman paper and threw it in four directions, hoping to form a five-element formation to suppress the shadow temporarily.But the idea is good, but it is not so perfect in practice.Soi Ying's strength was higher than she wanted, and a five-element talisman was directly intercepted, deviating from its original position.

How to do?

Dongqing didn't know who to ask this question, she looked at the monster that was rushing towards her, closed her eyes and took out the last purification talisman.

"Don't be brave if you don't have the skills, get out of the way!"

A familiar voice suddenly sounded, and Dongqing felt that someone had pushed her hard, pushed herself out of the attack range, opened her eyes, and saw Mao's thin figure standing in front of her.

Pick up the bow, nock the arrow, let go.

In just a few seconds, these three actions were done in one go, so fast that Dongqing didn't have time to see clearly.

The demon-breaking arrow shot out like lightning.

The blue spiritual power is more dazzling than before, and it seems to burn all the filth in the world.

With a bang, the longbow touched the ground.

"Mao!" Holly immediately got up from the ground and rushed to Mao's side.

"I'm fine." Mao's face turned pale, she held Dongqing's hand to stand firm, and then said, "Go to the shrine and have a look."

……

The moment Mao entered the shrine, Mao felt regretful.

She proposed to enter the shrine just to find out the origin of these monsters, but if she had known in advance that it would be such a scene, she probably would not have made the same decision.

In the shrine, the maiden in white clothes and scarlet trousers was standing with a long knife in her hand. There was a coquettish blood flower blooming on her chest, but the tip of the knife pointed directly at the huge spider entrenched in the center of the room without a trace of wavering.

One person and one demon confronted each other, even though Dongqing and the others came in, they didn't distract them at all.

"It's...a spider." Mao murmured softly.

Only now did she see clearly the true face of the youkai hiding in the shrine, and she also saw clearly the transparent thread extending from the top of those shadows—that was spider silk.

This is troublesome, it seems that it is not so easy to go out again.

Mao turned his head to look at Holly, and found that she also had the same meaning in her eyes.

Perhaps it was because of the silence for too long, or it was not the style of a monster to stop silently, the huge spider let out a low growl, and suddenly separated several black shadows and rushed towards Dongqing and the others.

Sure enough, should the persimmon be soft?

As Dongqing thought about it, she never stopped making seals.During the response, she took the time to glance at the strange young witch.She seemed to be even more miserable, with more black shadows besieging her, and after killing a batch, another batch would automatically fill up, there was no chance to breathe.

If this continues, sooner or later you will die.Holly thought to herself, she should find some way to get rid of that big spider, it is the center of control.

She wasn't the only one who discovered this, the priestess also discovered it.

"Stand back, both of you!" Just after Mao tried to shoot an arrow at the spider, the young miko made a move. She asked Holly and the others to back up, but she went up to meet it.

Raise your hand and swing your knife.

The silver-white blade seemed to reflect the moonlight, making it dazzling.Holly pulled Mao to hide behind the door, closed her eyes, and opened them again until the scream of the spider disappeared.

"You two, were you sent by Miko Reiko?" Although the weak female voice was questioning, it carried a certain tone.

"Yes, are you Haruko Miko?" Mao came out from behind the door and asked a step forward. .

"Yes, I am." The young witch nodded, "I know you have a lot of questions, but what I want to tell you is that the purpose of those monsters is to destroy the seal of the evil dragon's bone."

"The skeleton of the evil dragon?"

"That was a very powerful monster hundreds of years ago. After his death, the ghostly spirit lingered and became something that many monsters competed for. If the monster got it, it could greatly increase the monster's power. In order to avoid this situation, there is a priestess Seal the bones of the evil dragon."

As Haruko said, she suddenly coughed lightly while clutching the wound on her chest, "Ahem..."

"Are you okay?" Mao asked with concern.

"Cough... I'm fine, the most important thing now is to prevent the monster from destroying the seal."

"Where is that place?"

"It's in a dry well behind the village!"
