The people around him kept asking questions, and Kikyo rolled her eyes and glanced back lightly, not following.

"Kikyo, Kikyo, are you listening?"

Kagome called several times, squinting her eyes and puffing her cheeks. In fact, she was not annoyed because her questions were not answered, but... she was ignored. She fully realized this fact.

But, I am really curious, and Kagome is itching.

What would Kikyo look like when he was a child? Would he look like his Shikigami?

By the way, why would his Shikigami be so similar to Kikyo? It can't be that he used a small paper figure with Kikyo's picture... right?

So it can be like this... Kagome thought, her eyes turned around Kikyo.

His gaze was too unscrupulous. Although there was no unpleasant emotion, but... Kikyo stopped and looked at Kagome, "What are you thinking about?" It was impossible to ignore.

Kagome blurted out, "Doll."

Kikyo:?

Yeah, I said it. Kagome blinked twice, noticing Kikyo's puzzled look, and explained, "It's a toy for children."

A doll version of Kikyo appeared in her mind, and Kagome's heart was covered with a small man. No one can refuse cute and adorable things! At least he can't!

"Toy?" Kikyo's eyes revealed a hint of complexity, and she hesitated to say, "The shikigami just looks small, but the actual age is older than the monster."

"Eh?" Kagome didn't react for a while, and she went through it in her mind before she suddenly realized it.

I couldn't help laughing, "No, no, I didn't say it was for the shikigami to play with, but I thought of how you looked when you were a child, Kikyo..."

Kagome paused, remembering that Kikyo didn't want to discuss her past demeanor, and he pressed down the corners of his upturned mouth.

After hesitating for a moment, he still broke the jar, saying that he had already said it, so what's the point of saying half of it?

"When I was a child, my family gave me dolls during festivals. They were small, about this size, and meant that the dolls could take away diseases and sorrows for people." Kagome gestured with her hands, with a flash of nostalgia in her eyes.

The festival they celebrated was the Girls' Day. As a traditional family in the shrine, Kagome received a palace doll with exquisite workmanship and gorgeous shape from her mother.

"But my friend received a different doll, which was imported from foreign countries. It felt fluffy, like a miniature version of them, different from my wooden doll. I envied it for a long time and cried and asked my mother for it."

When you are a child, you will always desire what you can't get. Kagome is no exception. When you think of Kikyo's childhood, you immediately think of the doll that you have been thinking about for a long time.

Kikyo's eyes lit up with a faint smile, and she was pleased by the scene Kagome described, "Really, it's a big change... I thought little boys liked to play with sticks and stones, but you are different."

Having seen boys of this era playing with guns and sticks, Kikyo couldn't help but soften her eyes. Children's festival, five hundred years later... It's really fascinating.

As for the dolls, she had seen them in the hands of the princesses of noble families when she was exorcising demons, but she didn't expect it to have this meaning.

Take away diseases and sadness.

The children of the future are very happy.

Kagome froze when she heard "You are different", and laughed, "Hahaha yes, yes, I liked to play with girls when I was a child, haha."

Although it was an unintentional remark, Kikyo really knew how to grasp the key points, which scared him.

Fortunately, there was no Girls' Day in ancient times. Kagome exhaled and patted her chest guiltily, because Girls' Day is a festival for little girls, and the corresponding festival for boys is Boys' Day.

On the roof, balcony or flagpole in the yard, paper carp strips and seven-color candies are hung dozens of feet long. Dolls are also given, but they are not dolls, but "samurai dolls" wearing ancient armor.

The two were immersed in their own thoughts. Kagome was afraid that if she said too much, Kikyo would find out something... He was a woman in his heart, and a rival who had a relationship with Inuyasha.

Kagome was helpless. This was too... too embarrassing.

After knowing this, how should he face Inuyasha, and how should he get along with Kikyo?

No, no, absolutely, absolutely, Kikyo must not know.

After swearing in her heart, Kagome finally took a breath and didn't mention the baby again. In the night, it was dark in the distance, and there was a chill. He rubbed his arms, "Where are you going, Kikyo?"

"To find that half-demon, Di Nian'er."

"Di Nian'er?" Kagome looked puzzled, "Go now? Don't wait for Inuyasha to find the real monster that killed the villagers?"

Kikyo shook his head, "Ali, don't underestimate the people of this era."

"...What do you mean?" Kagome's heart trembled violently.

"It means--" Kikyo narrowed her eyes, grabbed Kagome's wrist and hid in the bushes next to her, hiding their bodies behind the big tree.Just as Kagome and Kikyo had just hidden, the torches dotted from the other side of the path were particularly conspicuous in the darkness.

It was the villagers holding torches.

Kagome slowly opened her eyes, her breathing disordered, how could it be? !

Obviously, Inuyasha was not allowed to fight with Di Nian'er, and he also promised to "solve" Di Nian'er after raising money, so why did they still go to kill Di Nian'er?

Kagome clenched her hands and stared at the group of villagers. He suddenly realized that something was wrong. Are there not as many of these people as before?

Just as he was thinking, three or two villagers passed by the bushes in front of him. Kagome subconsciously shrank inside, and her back was pressed against Kikyo's arm. He frowned, this place was a bit small.

The footsteps of the villagers became clearer and clearer. Without time to think, Kagome broke free of Kikyo's hand with her backhand, pressed her shoulders with both hands and pulled her in front of her, shortening the distance between the two and hiding behind the tree trunk.

Kikyo's mind was not on Kagome. After being pulled like this, when she looked up again, she could clearly see... lips in front of her. Her pupils shrank, and she almost reflexively tried to break free.

Feeling the resistance of the people under her hands, Kagome was tilting her head to pay attention to the traces of the villagers. Without thinking, she lowered her head and approached her and whispered, "Shh, don't move, someone is coming."

Fortunately, Kikyo also sensed the approaching people and immediately quieted down.

Kagome's eyes were still fixed on the shadows cast by the villagers, very close...

"Swish, swish."

The footsteps stopped, just behind the big tree where they were.

Kagome's heart was beating fast, and she couldn't help but shrink her arms. Kikyo wanted to lean back uncomfortably, but she caught a glimpse of her white top in the corner of her eye, which was very conspicuous in the night, so she had to stop halfway.

If she retreated too much, she would be discovered.

Fortunately, there were not many villagers approaching, only two people.

Kagome and Kikyo both breathed a sigh of relief. If there were more people, they might find out. With so many people, a fight would be inevitable.

They both thought at the same time that they couldn't alert the enemy.

"How long will it take? What if there's a monster in the middle of the night..." The voice trembled slightly.

"What are you afraid of? We're all here, and we all have weapons."

"That's what you said, but there's a demon hunter, why do you want us to kill Di Nian'er..."

"Ha, if you want to pay, you pay. I don't have money. Those cowards didn't even discuss with us when they asked for the demon hunter. We agreed to work together, but now they want to occupy the herb field after both sides are injured."
