Hidechiyo looked at someone strangely, and took several different photos from different angles of the Kotengu who had a miserable end in high spirits.

Although she didn't understand what she was doing, she vaguely felt that this person had developed some bad tastes. After all, it had been so long, so she naturally knew the bottom line.

certainly--

This is just a small episode.

After this Crow Tengu attack, it seems that the demons have quieted down, no longer lively, and I don't know if they have been killed. The three continued to walk along the mountain road. The road ahead was more rugged and complicated, and no one had left for a long time. The mountain path became desolate and silent.

Plants begin to regain lost ground.

Everywhere became full of life and greenery.

——It is no exaggeration to say that the traces of the road are almost unrecognizable, and the group is completely trudging through the dense jungle.

And not far ahead, a vague outline of a village finally appeared.

It seems that it has been abandoned for a long time, the wood has been completely decayed, and the plants have covered the house, and only the former appearance and layout can be roughly seen.

However, it can be seen that before it was abandoned, the village itself had already suffered a baptism of catastrophe.

Because many houses and buildings are obviously in ruins, they gradually become like this in the accumulation of abandonment. Even with deep greening, the growth of trees covers the houses, and the vines of the creeping tigers cover the ruins. After all, it is impossible to completely cover up the treatment that has been suffered in the past.

"...Is this also a village destroyed by war?"

Kikyo raised her eyebrows, and she carefully sensed her surroundings, but she could not read any useful information from the environment.

The disaster that happened to this village happened too long ago, not something that happened recently, nor a time span of one or two years. Under such circumstances, even if there is any residual information, it has long been worn away by the years.

"Forget it, but it can also be said that there is no good or bad, only people call themselves."

Gu Mo glanced around casually, his eyes penetrated the obstacles, and he settled on a dilapidated shrine on the other side of the village. Hearing the soft voice of the witch, he answered like this.

"Huh? What do you say?!"

The witch immediately raised her eyebrows slightly, looked in his direction, and cast an inquiring look.

"Actually, this is the case. This village should end up like this. It should be the result of begging for a hammer. After all, they think that good people should be pointed at by guns..." Gu Mo explained with great interest. Knowing the foresight advantage is also able to go back to the past and confirm what happened.

So it is natural to understand what has happened on this land.

Basically, there is nothing different from the plot he learned at the beginning, at most it is more detailed in terms of details.

Specifically -

This village used to be the settlement of Otake Maru. Because this man was tall, powerful, and had double horns on his forehead, he was called "rare man" by the villagers at that time in awe. Respect and fear are intertwined, and respect and distance may be the most ideal state of getting along at that time.

It's just because Dayuemaru is very enthusiastic, so he always does his part to help the villagers deal with many difficulties and troubles, which is a job that cannot be done by manpower.

——Over time, he won the kindness and respect of the villagers, making people no longer fear...

——Or to put it another way, the villagers began to take it for granted.

It can only be said that habit is really a terrible thing. The stories of Sheng Mien and Dou Miqiu have not been rare since ancient times. After all, human nature is evil, and it is actually quite common for people to remember bad things and not remember good things. It is easy for people to feel that they should be helped by helping others all the time.

As a result, even if he helped him a hundred times, he wouldn't have any gratitude, but as long as he didn't help him once, he would probably hold grudges.

Because he felt that others should help him, and he already took it for granted.

Once others don't help him or don't do a good job, it means that he feels that his original interests have been damaged, and naturally he will not have a good face towards the object whose interests are damaged.

It can be said that the rift between the villagers and Dayue Maru has gradually accumulated because of this. After all, under the accumulation of time, even Dayue Maru cannot unconditionally fulfill all the requirements of the villagers. If the requirements are not met, the villagers' dissatisfaction and even resentment towards this man gradually fermented and became a common phenomenon.

When a thief came to loot the village and was directly killed by Dayue Maru, the villagers did not feel any gratitude at all. Instead, they finally tore their faces, and the killing of the thief became the fuse that really detonated the conflict.

——Although the thieves came to the village to kidnap and kill, threatening their lives...

——And Dayuemaru is protecting the village and protecting their lives...

However, the villagers who had long been dissatisfied with Dayue Maru still seized this opportunity to take advantage of the topic to promote the remarks of "not my race, their hearts must be different"... After all, such rubbish that can't be grasped will be caught in future generations A lot of people really can't expect the ignorant villagers of this period to have a high level of ideological awareness.

It may be simply the idea that honest people are easy to bully, and that they are good people, so they can point a gun at them.

It's just that the villagers probably didn't think about it, or didn't think about it at all, that even honest people will always have time to endure to the limit.

"After being brutally treated by people, Dayuemaru finally couldn't bear it anymore. He directly slaughtered the entire village... Then the official army sent a large army to seek ghosts, but it was slightly different from the stories recorded in later generations, and there were quite a few details. Lots of access."

Gu Mo gave a brief introduction and summed up the ins and outs of this village's suffering.

Although it happened a long, long time ago, it can be regarded as a hammer, and their demise is not because of others, but because they have the way to die. As long as they do not die, they will do it in death. Then who will die if they do not die? Hard work pays off, they did succeed.

"I see……"

The witch couldn't help but sighed.

Such a tragedy really makes people feel embarrassed, but there is nothing to do, because she has seen a lot of similar things. Sometimes, not to mention monsters or ghosts, even if she is such a powerful, but very talkative alien, she may be secretly excluded by the villagers.

In Maple Village, such a thing naturally never happened.

But when she was wandering and cultivating, she had seen similar situations in other villages, seen some similar examples, and suffered similar treatment.

Because when a person is more capable, can do a lot of things, and is more talkative... then it is easy for other people to place too many unnecessary or even unworthy hopes on this person, hoping that the other party will be unconditional to satisfy all reasonable or unreasonable demands of oneself.

By the time they decide that their demands must be met, the nature of things has completely changed.

But this tragedy could have been avoided.

"..."

The black-haired girl over there didn't express any opinion, she just turned her eyes seriously and thought about what Gu Mo said. She is not too unfamiliar with the matter of Dayue Wan. The former Guoxin layman caused a lot of trouble. It is said that its essence is Dayue Wan's evil thoughts.

She lowered her head and looked at the sword of Chu Yeya in her hand, and then looked at the land in front of her.

so--

This ghost-hunting weapon was first cast in this place?

The reason why such a vision has appeared now, with bursts of sword cries and endless humming, is because the magic weapon has a spirit, and you want to travel thousands of miles back to your hometown to have a look? This... It's impossible to think about it, but this guy pretends to be mysterious and doesn't say anything.

Hidechiyo looked at the black-haired young man in white over there, and felt that the other party should have some deep meaning, perhaps even talking about Suzuka Gozen and Otake Maru.

It's very likely that it's implying something.

But what happened in the past, he usually told himself directly, why did he want to be the riddleman this time? Is it not good to tell yourself directly, or...you don't need to tell yourself clearly, because you will know right away?

The black-haired girl was thoughtful, she tried to swing the sword of Chu Yeya a few times, and then walked towards the village.

The source of the resonance is not far ahead.

The shrine maiden glanced at Gu Mo, then turned around and followed. The latter smiled slightly, but did not take any action. He calmly glanced at the land, the long history of the past reflected in his eyes, and his consciousness continued to trace back to the upstream time and space of a single timeline.

The historical span of hundreds or even thousands of years, coupled with the fact that the time gem is not in his hands, is purely relying on his own ability to control the time domain to backtrack, and he also feels a little bit labored.

From this era, back to the early Heian era, the length of time and the difficulty of this matter are already enough for him to deal with this distraction.

But the problem is not big, there is no time gem, he has other help. Between the thoughts, an illusory guardian spirit figure appeared, circling around him, like a planet revolving around a star. If you look closely, it is the figure of a saddle horse tengu with space-time attributes.

At the same time, on the other side of the earth, the moon is also slowly turning.

The god-like computing machine can fluctuate a little, and the calculation of an important process is directly completed. The support of the real machine god's avatar body is as powerful as ever.

He was located at the exact time in the blink of an eye. Gu Mo looked in the direction ahead. When he noticed the power of time and space blooming and released inexplicable strange fluctuations, he also directly launched his own time travel. As if wiped by an eraser, the outline faded and disappeared into the air.

…………

...

It's like walking through the long river of time, but it is upstream instead of downstream.

The feeling of history and times roaring towards him, as if the whole world was smashing towards him, made Gu Mo find a trace of the mortal era after a long absence, the feeling of going on a roller coaster.

The surrounding environment is changing rapidly, and only his eyesight can see these blurry pictures clearly, like thousands or tens of thousands of pictures flashing in one second, they overlap and appear to be one piece. A chaotic picture, flashing with colorful black and colorful white...

Time and space are changing alternately, and finally, like a galloping train entering the station, it slowly slows down and finally stops.

——The surrounding scenery became clear again.
