At this moment, the man suddenly turned around and looked over.

"Oh no! If we want to escape, we must escape quickly."

As soon as this thought came to his mind, Nifa Jie Luo heard the other person's voice talking behind him.

"Hey... Isn't this Nifa Jie Luo? Are you here to snatch the Four Souls Jade as well?"

"No, I'm just passing by, just passing by."

"Haha...you're captured, come with me, any objections?"

"No."

He stood up tremblingly, and saw that the other party had sheathed his sword. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.

He glanced at her secretly from the corner of his eye and asked hesitantly:

"Are you human or a youkai? Or... a half-demon?"

"I am a pure human being."

"How can a human be so strong? And there's such a strong demonic aura on him."

? ?

No, there really was no demonic aura on him, only the disgusting spiritual fluctuations of a human demon hunter.

And the evil spirit came from that direction.

Nifa Jie Luo silently slowed down his pace and walked towards the direction where the evil spirit came from, lagging half a body length behind.

After about a few minutes, the scene in front of me changed, as if I had come to another world.

Many tall monsters were carrying wood and stones under the command of humans. Some humans were cutting wood, some monsters were smashing stones, and some human women were bringing water to the monsters.

Such a scene made her completely unable to believe her eyes, and she subconsciously stood there in a daze.

"Your hair is very sharp. Why don't you go over there and help chop trees, or cut stones? Or do you want to mix cement?"

"What on earth is this place? What do you want to do?"

"I want to build a city here, a fortress that can defend against monster attacks, or at least delay them for a while."

"No, what I want to ask is, why can monsters live in harmony with humans? Monsters don't eat people, so humans won't be afraid?"

"Why can't monsters live in harmony with humans? If a human kills a monster, he dies; if a monster kills a human, he dies. As long as they are strictly managed, there won't be too much conflict between the two sides."

Nifa Jie Luo frowned slightly, and put himself in other people's shoes. If someone put a knife to his neck and asked him to get along well with humans, it would be okay for a short time, but for a long time, could he really keep himself quiet?

"Do you want to change this era?"

"You have too many questions. What kind of job do you want to do? If it's useless, I'll send you on your way."

Damn barbarian, no mercy at all.

snort!

"I'll cut the stone."

Seeing her quietly walk into the crowd and start working under the guidance of a monster, Ye Men used his spiritual power to sense the surrounding scene and pondered:

"It seems that there will be no monsters coming today."

'It's a pity that I can't find a monster that can use earth magic, otherwise building a city would be much easier.'

Chapter 9 I am willing to be a shikigami

"What exactly do you want to do?"

In Maple Village, Grandma Feng looked at Ye Men who was slowly approaching with an extremely serious expression.

"In the past three days, you have brought back many monster corpses, gold, silver, jewelry, silk and satin, and many living monsters, as well as countless food. What is your purpose?"

"Hmm... How should I put it? I cleared out many monsters and thieves' dens in Musashi Province, and also broke into several cities. I brought back a lot of food and weapons. If I leave them in the wild, they will slowly rot. If I give them to the villagers, I'm worried that they will be guilty of possessing treasures. It should be reasonable to build a warehouse to store them, right?"

Ye Men paused for a moment, then continued:

"Now that we have a warehouse, it would be reasonable to build a wall to protect it from robbers, right?"

"Also, in order to have a good sleep at night, the construction of fortifications is also necessary."

"Compared to humans, monsters are stronger and have strange magic. They can build the wall faster, bigger, and higher. Wouldn't it be stupid not to use it?"

"I paid for the villagers' help in building the city and promised to distribute the food to them after it was built. Everyone was very happy. This is undoubtedly a win-win situation. Are you dissatisfied?"

Grandma Feng remained silent. Was she worried about safety? The villagers themselves were very happy. In the past few days, many villagers said that there were good monsters among the monsters.

"You are neither a daimyo nor a lord here. If you build a city without permission, you will be attacked by the daimyo."

"already solved."

"Even if it can be solved this time..."

Before Grandma Feng finished her words, she thought of the scene she had just seen from afar outside the village and was speechless for a moment.

With such terrifying power, he really doesn't need to be afraid of ordinary armies. As for Onmyoji or monks, he is not a monster, so he has even less to fear.

"Do you want to occupy Musashi Province and establish yourself as the ruler?"

"That's not necessary. As long as this city belongs to me, it's enough. Other places don't matter."

"Can humans...really live in harmony with monsters?" Granny Feng paused for a moment, then murmured to herself, "Right now, you have to rely on your power to suppress all conflicts. This approach, no matter how I look at it, is not correct."

"So what is correct?"

"I don't know, but I can see the fear and worry lurking beneath the peaceful scene."

"Then just watch slowly."

Yemen chuckled, turned to Kagome who was practicing archery at a fixed target, and spoke slowly:

"Not bad, I'm already doing pretty well. In a few days, even if I participate in the Olympic Games, I'll be able to get a good ranking."

"Yemon-kun." Kagome couldn't help but smile, and then said, "I also want to fight. I always feel very bored practicing archery here."

"In that case, how about trying to contract a shikigami?"

"Eh...? Is that okay?"

Kagome's eyes lit up and her face showed anticipation.

In the past few days, she and Yu Luo have discussed this issue many times.

Because Ye Men brought back many monsters, some of them were very powerful. It was said that these monsters were in the probation period. As long as they passed the probation, he would collect one or two of them as Shikigami.

There are so many monsters and a wide range of choices.

Kagome herself had thought that if she were to collect a shikigami herself, she would definitely collect a cute one, just like raising a pet.

While hesitating, Kagome noticed Yuura walking in from outside the village, and she quickly waved and greeted him.

"Yuro, why did you return to the village? Don't you need to keep an eye on it here?"

"It doesn't matter. The team leaders appointed by Senior Ye Men are very dedicated and responsible. They supervise each other. The management method that anyone can submit a letter of complaint is also very good."

Yu Luo hesitated for a few seconds and spoke slowly:

"Senior Ye Men, do you want to stay in this era and become a daimyo?"

"No, I just want to build a city to protect the well. It's really unsafe to leave it in the wild."

"That's true."

Yu Luo nodded slightly. After all, it was a treasure that could travel through the world. Even though he had tried it the day before yesterday, he couldn't go back for the time being.

If the well was destroyed, they would never be able to go back.

"Besides, I'm also worried that someone might come and disturb me while I'm sleeping. If I have a city to settle down in, at least I can keep away some useless little monsters."

Ye Men chuckled and added:

"Also, being able to take a hot shower every day without having to go to a river far away to fetch water is also very important."

"Hmm... As expected of you, Senior Ye Men. You always think so carefully."

Yu Luo nodded continuously. It was true. If one wanted to live in this era for a long time, the housing problem had to be solved.

Actually, water pipes are easy to build, but they are inconvenient to maintain. Therefore, it is necessary to build a city.

"I asked them to give priority to building our homes, and it should be completed before sunset today. The tap water is from springs in the mountains, and the pipes are made of bamboo, which are laid all the way down. The durability may not be enough and needs frequent maintenance."

"Great!" Kagome couldn't help but cheer out loud.

During these days, I could only take a bath once every two days. I had to ask Ye Men to fetch water from the river, boil it, and pour it into a wooden barrel.

Also because of the inconvenience of using water, I feel embarrassed every time I take a shower.

"With Yemen-kun here, I feel like this trip to the Warring States period is just like a trip to a remote mountain village. It doesn't feel real at all. If I were alone, I would just follow the crowd and take a cold shower in the river like the other villagers."

"By the way, let's get back to the topic of shikigami. What kind of shikigami does Yemen-kun want?"

"I'm still observing. I have enough strength now. I just want to find a little monster that is about the same size as a kitten or puppy and has a cute appearance." Ye Men murmured.

"Oh... I also want a shikigami like this. It would be fun to have one like a pet."

Listening to the two people's casual conversation, Yuro couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Compared to modern times, the monsters in this era have no organization, so it is relatively easy to collect Shikigami.

As long as you can convince the other party and reach a consensus, it will be fine.

Even if the ritual fails, there is nothing more to do than try a few more times.

Moreover, the difference between physical Shikigami and spiritual Shikigami is that the physical one takes up very little spiritual energy, and it is easy to summon multiple ones to fight at the same time.

Only in this way can we truly deal with the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons.

For me, this era is also a rare blessed place.

However, this is clearly a rare opportunity, with many monsters in front of me for me to choose from, including some very powerful monsters. Why do I always feel unsatisfied?

Should we say that this worry is too extravagant?

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from behind:

"I'm done with this! You can kill me or chop me up as you please."

Turning back, Yu Luo's eyes lit up when she saw the black-haired female monster not far away who was scantily clad, had a plump figure and looked like a queen.

What a beautiful monster!

Since he can appear here, I guess he hasn't done too many evil things, otherwise he would have been chopped to pieces by Senior Ye Men long ago.

"Senior Ye Men, what kind of monster is she? I have no idea where she came from."

"The hair comb of the dead absorbs the resentment and is transformed into a comb. It is actually closer to a god than a monster."

"Senior, I want her!"

"Go and tell it yourself."

"Senior, don't you object?"

"I'm not interested in her, just do whatever you want."

"Thank you, senior."

Seeing Yu Luo looking at him with burning eyes, Nifa Jie Luo took a step back unconsciously.

"What's going on? What do you want to do?"

"Become my shikigami, Ms. Yuura!" Yuura bowed slightly.

"What is a shikigami? No, I know that shikigami is an ability of the Onmyoji. What I mean is, am I not a living monster?"

"The so-called shikigami are subordinates who have signed a permanent contract with the Onmyoji. They can come when they are summoned and go when they are dismissed. Whether it is a ghost, a demon, or even a god, they can be contracted to become a shikigami."

Ye Men paused for a moment, then looked at her expressionlessly again:

"Since Yuro wants to sign a contract with you, you should seriously consider it."
