Chapter 660: Fuzugawa Miya (11)
This time, Ubuyashiki Yoya and others stayed at home and had lunch.
It was not until the afternoon that he took Yun Ci and some of her luggage and set off for the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters.
A carriage, with Ubuyashiki Yoya and Ubuyashiki Amane sitting inside, and the carriage driver Inu and Fushigi Sane sitting in the front.
Yun Ci originally wanted to get some fresh air outside, but there was no place for her, so she could only get into the carriage and lean against the window to enjoy the scenery.
The Demon Slayer Corps headquarters is still far away from the Kamikaze family. It takes five or six days by carriage to enter the deep mountains where the Demon Slayer Corps is hiding.
During the night, if there is a town nearby, we will go to Fujiya to rest; if there is no town, we will stay overnight in the wild.
It was not the first time that Yun Ci stayed overnight in the wild, but it was the first time in her life that she stayed overnight in the wild with others.
"slower."
Yunci helped Ubuyashiki Tenon to help Ubuyashiki Yoya get off the carriage and sit down under the shade of a tree.
"Aunt, uncle, what are we having for dinner? Do we need to go hunting?" Yun Ci seemed very motivated and wanted to share with others, "My barbecue skills are very good!"
No one refused Yun Ci's enthusiasm to share, but when Yun Ci wanted to go hunting alone, she called on Fushigi Shima to accompany her.
"I can do it on my own." Yun Ci quickly refused, "Mr. Busikawa should stay and accompany your uncle."
Comparing the two, Yunci has stronger self-protection ability and does not need to be protected.
Yun Ci waved her hand, picked up her small bag and went into the woods.
For Yunci, it was easy to catch a hare.
She picked some wild vegetables and prepared to cook a wild vegetable soup. Although the wild vegetables at dusk were not very fresh and tender, if you only picked the tender leaves in the middle, the taste was still good.
Yun Ci was very fast. Before it got completely dark, she cleaned the rabbit, wild vegetables and fruits and returned to the main group.
A fire had been lit, with a pot of boiling water hanging above it, bubbling away.
After seeing Yun Ci, Fushigi Miya took his hand away from the Nichirin Sword.
Ubuyashiki Tenon stood up, picked up the heated cup from the carriage next to her, filled it with hot water and handed it to Yunci.
"Thank you, sister-in-law."
Yun Ci put the big leaves next to the pot, took the water and took a sip, then started grilling the meat.
Roasting a whole rabbit would take some time, so Yun Ci cut it into four halves, marinated it with the seasonings she carried with her, and then skewered it with branches and stuck it next to the fire.
"If you don't want to drink the hot water, I'll use it to make soup."
“Is this a wild vegetable?”
"It tastes delicious, and it's also delicious when eaten raw." Yun Ci picked the tenderest one and handed it to Ubuyashiki Tenon.
Ubuyashiki Amane took a sip and held her face with one hand in surprise: "Ah, it's actually sweet."
"Yeah, yeah, it tastes good!"
Ubuyashiki Tenon gave it to Ubuyashiki Yoya to taste, and Yunci also handed one to Fushigi Saneya. Yin sat quietly aside without saying a word.
Seeing this, Yun Ci stuffed another one into Busikawa Shiya's hand and asked him to let Yin have a taste, and then started to cook wild vegetable soup.
Although it is not a cold winter day, it is still very comfortable to drink a bowl of hot soup when staying outdoors at night.
The rabbit meat takes a little longer to cook, but because it is cut into small pieces, it is almost done after drinking the wild vegetable soup.
Ubuyashiki Yoya didn't have a big appetite, so he shared a piece of rice with Ubuyashiki Amane.
Fushigawa Sane and In each got one piece. Yunci couldn't finish the remaining piece with her current appetite, so she cut it in half, eating half for herself and the other half for Fushigawa Sane.
After dinner, Ubuyashiki Yoya and Ubuyashiki Amane returned to the carriage to rest.
Originally, Ubuyashiki Yoya wanted Yunci and Tianyin to rest together, but Yunci refused.
Ubuyashiki Yoshiya's body is already very weak, and he has been eroded by the curse for several years. Although Yun Ci is now helping to suppress the curse, there is no way to replenish the deficiency in his body until the curse is completely resolved.
If you let him sleep outside overnight like this, he will definitely get sick the next day.
"Then I'll give you this blanket. The nights in the woods are still a bit chilly."
Yun Ci did not refuse and sat back by the fire wrapped in a small blanket.
Yin was already leaning aside to rest, and Fushigi Miyabi was sitting beside him with a sword in his arms and his eyes closed, but his posture allowed him to draw the sword at the fastest speed at any time.
Yun Ci tightened the blanket, added some large pieces of firewood to the fire, leaned against the tree trunk, faced the direction of Busei Kagawa, and closed her eyes.
"Rustle, rustle—"
Something was running quickly in the forest, and from the rapid and frightened breathing, it could be heard that it was a human being being chased by something.
Busei Kagawa suddenly opened his eyes, only to find that Yun Ci, who was not far away, had disappeared at some point.
The whistling wind brought the sound of flying paper pages into the ears of Fushigi Miya.
That familiar voice made Fushigi Miyako instantly have a vision going back to the day a few years ago when his mother had the accident.
He subconsciously took a few steps into the forest and saw Yun Ci standing in front of a girl who was sitting on the ground in a mess with a smile on her face.
Her body was surrounded by swirling talisman papers, which, like her arms, fluttered as Yun Ci waved them, softly yet sharply surrounding the evil spirits.
The wind brought by the swirling talisman paper blew Yun Ci's skirt and long hair.
The golden light emitted by the activated Sunlight Talisman seemed to add a bit of divinity to her.
For a moment, Fushigawa Miya saw the back of an adult woman who looked very similar to Yun Ci.
Xiao Ai noticed this scene, pulled out the calendar on the system panel, flipped through a few pages, and finally circled an approximate date.
[It’s faster than expected…]
I think it won’t be long before the host can reunite with her mother goddess.
She will definitely be very happy.
And the purpose for which she was created will soon be fulfilled, and by then she...
Xiao Ai shook her head and stopped thinking about it.
"——Saniya."
Fushigawa Sane suddenly came back to his senses, turned around and saw Ubuyashiki Yoya and Ubuyashiki Amane having already walked out of the carriage.
The two of them were standing not far away and also saw the scene of Yun Ci fighting with the ghost.
"Xiaoci is really amazing."
Ubuyashiki Yoya watched Yun Ci gently help the girl up and was asking her something.
Suddenly, Yun Ci's expression changed, as if she felt guilty or something. Then she raised her hand and touched the girl's head, then took her towards the group of people.
"This child lived in the mountains. She was chased by a ghost on her way home and fled here." Yunci stopped in front of Ubuyashiki Tianyin and the others, "Can I send her back?"
"That's exactly the direction we're going to go next. Let's go together."
The previous noise had already woken Yin up. When he heard what Ubuyashiki Yoshiya said, he immediately started to clean up the scene. After cleaning and burying the fire, he set up the carriage and moved forward.
The girl didn't want to get into the car, so Yun Ci walked with her outside, followed by Fushigi Shima, and behind them was the carriage.
Fushigi Shimo glanced at Yun Ci. Although she was smiling, Fushigi Shimo always felt that something was wrong.
Can't say why.
It just feels weird.
