"You come with me." The village chief said solemnly.

I didn't expect that she would join so easily. Kagome was delighted and clasped her hands in thanks, "Really? Thank you."

The other villagers changed their expressions and looked at each other, but did not dissuade him.

After boarding the boat, the villagers put some food into the boat. The village chief would go to pray for blessings for at least seven or eight days.

Looking at the boat going away, the villagers watched from afar.

"Is the village chief okay?"

"It's okay. The spiritual power on the island can wipe out all the demons. No matter what kind of demons and ghosts that person is disguised as, he can't escape the spiritual power of Bai Xinshangren."

The village chief's son squeezed his sister's hand, and said, "Father, you must return safely."

...

As the oars slid, the original shore was completely invisible, and clouds and mist began to appear around, covering the distant mountains like a veil.

The village chief glanced at Kagome sitting at the stern of the boat quietly, but there was no reaction. Could it be that she was really a human?

Of course, the head of a village could not easily believe a stranger's words. Even if Mr. Arakawa was mentioned, who knew whether he was a human or a monster.

However, there were too many villagers around him, and he was afraid that a few words would anger the man who was suspected of being a monster, so he simply took the initiative to invite him to go to the Holy Island together.

If it was a monster, it would be dead.

If it was a human... Thinking of what Kagome said on the shore, the village chief held the oar and frowned. Could it be that, as he said, Master Bai Xin had an accident?

Kagome observed the surroundings, completely unaware of the village chief's inner turmoil. Just like the previous visit, there were many reefs nearby, and if he was not careful, there was a danger of crashing the boat and falling into the lake, but the village chief was skilled in controlling the direction and did not touch it at all.

"We're here." The village chief stopped paddling and let the boat slide with the water.

Kagome regained her mind, the bow of the boat hit the shore, and the village chief and she got off the boat, fixed it, and walked towards the mountain.

There were no flowers all over the mountain, and the mist was everywhere, filled with loneliness.

Kagome squinted her eyes, and it was even harder to see inside than outside.

Suddenly, thump!

Her eyes went dark, and her heart seemed to sense danger and beat rapidly.

The same chill as at the Arakawa Shrine attacked Kagome's whole body, and the stabbing pain spread from her left eye to her limbs.

"Ugh--"

Kagome was caught off guard by the pain and fell to the ground, trembling all over, covering her left eye.

The village chief who was always watching Kagome was also shocked. He took a big step back, took out the dagger hidden in his waistband and pointed it at Kagome, looking at her nervously, "It's really a monster! Is it going to show its true form?"

"Huh! Ugh..."

It hurts so much, just like when she was cursed by the black witch Tsubaki with the fragments of the Four Souls Jade!

Kagome used her other hand to tightly pinch the hand covering her eyes, resisting the urge to dig her eyeballs out, and shouted to the village chief, "Run!"

The eyes that were about to burst with pain seemed to have living things swimming around, trying to rush out of the eye sockets, and the direction was -

The temple behind the village chief!

"Run!"

Kagome's anxious urging did not make the village chief leave, but instead blocked the temple more firmly, "You monster are coming for Bai Xinshang's temple! I won't let you succeed!"

The village chief's eyes were filled with joy. If he delayed for a while, the monster seemed to be unable to hold on.

Idiot!

Kagome couldn't help cursing in her heart. It wasn't her who was in danger.

It was the temple behind the village chief.

Her chest was burning, and Kagome was stunned at first, and then tensed. What did the Four Souls Jade want to do at this time?

The author has something to say: There are probably four or five more chapters before we get into the main storyline. It will take more than ten chapters for Kikyo to appear. The foreshadowing has been a bit long. I really want to write about the sweet and ambiguous period between the two of them. I feel like I'm about to imagine these two getting married [tears]
