#134 - Section 134
Just as he was thinking, he suddenly felt a wave of temporal distortion. The next moment, a voice came from the old well not far away: "Grandpa, Souta, hurry up and save me!"
Lu Li's eyes narrowed slightly: "Could it be Kagome?"
He went to the well and with a casual wave, a soft ladder made of wisteria vines was lowered.
"Eh, Grandpa, when did we get this kind of ladder?" A surprised voice came from the well. Immediately afterward, the soft ladder swayed, and a petite figure in a sailor uniform climbed up the ladder.
However, the scene before her was clearly different from what she had imagined, leaving the girl dumbfounded.
Where's the shrine?
Where did such a big shrine go?
Before her was a forest, with lush trees and humid air. She could even hear the roars of beasts.
She had only fallen into the well, how did she suddenly end up in a forest?
"Um... where is this place?" Kagome Higurashi looked at Lu Li, asking nervously.
Lu Li smiled: "Welcome to five hundred years ago, Miss Kagome Higurashi."
"Five hundred years ago? You're kidding me?!" Kagome Higurashi exclaimed, disbelieving. "Besides, if it's really five hundred years ago, how could you possibly know me? Is this some kind of prank? Did you drug me and then move me to the forest? Where are the cameras?"
Kagome Higurashi looked around, but couldn't find any trace of modern times.
Could it be that this is really five hundred years ago?
But how is that possible!
Modern science is so advanced, but there's no such technology, right?
Looking at Lu Li, she saw him playing with a crystal ball, and couldn't help but exclaim: "The Shikon Jewel?"
"That's right, it is indeed the Shikon Jewel," Lu Li nodded.
The Shikon Jewel, that's a product of her shrine.
But the Shikon Jewel in Lu Li's hand was clearly not produced by modern industry, but taken from her body.
Upon obtaining this Shikon Jewel, Lu Li also learned of Kagome Higurashi's origins.
Speaking of which, this Shikon Jewel had quite a connection with him, because it was he who sent this Shikon Jewel to the space-time of five hundred years later.
Along with it was a copy of Kikyo's soul.
This is called the Donburi Plan.
Kagome and Kikyo, of course he wanted them both.
"...Am I that bored?" Lu Li thought to himself, "But, it's really something I might do."
"Who are you?" Kagome Higurashi asked.
Lu Li smiled: "Didn't you just call me Grandpa? You can continue to call me Grandpa now."
Kagome Higurashi's cheeks flushed red: "Who would call you Grandpa? Where exactly is this place? Is it really five hundred years ago?"
"Still don't believe it?" Lu Li laughed. "Let's go, take a look around and you'll believe it."
He took Kagome Higurashi's hand and headed towards Kaede Village.
"Hey, don't be so familiar," Kagome Higurashi complained, but didn't resist, as if she had a strange sense of trust in this person.
How strange!
Why does she have this feeling about a stranger?
After walking for a while, they suddenly saw an ancient village.
In the fields, there was no trace of modern times. The farmers were wearing cloth clothes and wielding the kind of hoes that could only be seen in history books.
"This is Kaede Village, about near your home five hundred years later."
Having seen the Sacred Tree of this era, Kagome Higurashi was already quite convinced by Lu Li's words.
"Five hundred years ago, this is too incredible!" Kagome Higurashi only felt her head buzzing. "Can I still go back to five hundred years later?"
"Who is this?"
Suddenly, a pleasant voice rang out. Kagome Higurashi looked up and saw a miko wearing red and white robes, tall and elegant, walking towards them.
"Could it be that the deity abducted her from somewhere?"
Deity?
The miko said deity?!
Kagome Higurashi was shocked. Could it be that the person she had been walking with was actually a deity?!
194. Kikyo and Kagome Speechless (4/5, Seeking Subscriptions)
"Lu Li, are you actually a deity?"
Kagome Higurashi asked.
"That's right," Lu Li nodded. "This is my miko, and one of my wives, Kikyo."
One of?
Kikyo tilted her head: "One of? Lord Deity, what's going on!"
How come she didn't know she was one of?
Lu Li rubbed his chin: "Didn't I say so?!"
"Of course not," Kikyo said unhappily.
Lu Li: "Okay, let's go to the Divine Kingdom and talk about it."
Returning home, he brought Kikyo and Kagome to the Divine Kingdom.
In the blink of an eye, the world changed. Kagome no longer doubted that Lu Li was a deity.
"I met a deity?" Kagome murmured, then looked at Lu Li. "Since you're a deity, Lu Li, can you send me home?"
Lu Li was explaining to Kikyo about the Familia members and the affairs of various worlds.
Hearing this, he said: "Of course. However, you can play here for a while longer. Anyway, going back will just be you leaving that point in time, so just treat it as a vacation."
Kagome Higurashi heard this and cheered: "Really? That's great."
"By the way, I seem to have heard you mention Familia and things about other worlds. Can I become a Familia member too?" With the matter in her heart settled, Kagome Higurashi's curiosity suddenly rose, and she looked at Lu Li expectantly.
Kikyo sighed: "Another ignorant girl!"
Kagome Higurashi was dissatisfied: "I'm not ignorant! How can you, a miko, be disrespectful to a deity!"
Kikyo: "...Lu Li, why do I feel like this person in front of me looks familiar?"
Kagome Higurashi widened her eyes: "I feel like that too. Lu Li, could she be my ancestor from hundreds of years ago?"
Lu Li coughed lightly and said: "Actually, you are the same person."
"Ah?"
Kikyo and Kagome spoke almost in unison, "How is that possible!"
Kikyo: "Could it be that Lord Deity is playing tricks again?"
Kagome: "???"
Seeing the two of them looking confused, Lu Li explained: "Soon after, someone sent the Shikon Jewel to Kikyo for safekeeping. Then, in order to do an experiment, I copied your soul, Kikyo, and sent it to five hundred years later along with the Shikon Jewel, and then there was Kagome."
Kagome Higurashi was shocked: "Lu Li, what are you saying? My existence is because of you?"
Kikyo rolled her eyes: "Why would Lord Deity do such a meaningless thing!"
Kagome Higurashi was dissatisfied: "It's not meaningless. If this thing is meaningless, then my existence wouldn't be meaningful either, right?"
The two women argued for a few sentences, then suddenly looked at Lu Li together.
"Lu Li, why did you do this?"
Lu Li reached out and pulled the two into his arms: "Isn't it because I wanted to harvest more Kikyo? Kikyo is so lovely."
Kagome Higurashi was dissatisfied: "I'm not someone else's copy, I'm Kagome."
Kikyo snorted lightly: "I don't want more Kikyo to exist either. Kikyo is unique."
Kagome Higurashi looked at Lu Li with a serious expression: "You can't do this kind of thing again in the future!"
Kikyo and Kagome were on the same side: "That's right!"
"Since you don't like it, then I won't do it anymore," Lu Li chuckled. "Little Kagome, come on, after five hundred years, shouldn't we have a kiss?"
Kagome Higurashi turned her head away: "No way, we just met! We should at least cultivate some feelings first."
Kikyo chuckled and kissed Lu Li very happily.
Seeing this, Kagome Higurashi was immediately dissatisfied.
How could the past self be so proactive!
Filled with jealousy, she gently tiptoed and kissed Lu Li on the cheek as well, looking at Kikyo provocatively.
Lu Li smiled: "Kikyo, don't you think Kagome is very interesting?"
Kikyo nodded: "Indeed very interesting. It seems that the environment five hundred years later is good, Kagome is very lively!"
Kagome Higurashi: "Don't treat me like your daughter."
After playing in the Divine Kingdom for a while, the three returned home.
"Sister, brother-in-law, and that strange woman, dinner is ready."
"I'm not strange!" Kagome was dissatisfied. Logically speaking, she was also an older sister, so how could she be a strange person?
Kikyo instructed: "Kaede, you have to call Kagome 'older sister'."
Kaede: "Okay."
Sitting at the dining table and seeing the table full of meat and fish, Kagome suddenly said: "Isn't there any food from this era? Having come to more than five hundred years ago, I definitely have to taste the food of this era."
This was just like traveling, looking at the scenery of various places and eating the delicacies of various places, that's what makes it perfect.
Kaede retorted: "She really is strange!"
She stood up and ran into the kitchen, bringing out a small dish and a bowl, and placing them in front of Kagome.
"What is this?"
Kagome looked at the bowl and dish in front of her, somewhat shocked.
In the dish were some pickled radishes and the like, cut into small pieces, and she could smell the pickled vegetables.
In the bowl was a thin porridge that could be used as a mirror. Kagome looked at her reflection in the bowl, speechless.
There weren't many grains of rice in this bowl of porridge.
If this kind of thing were placed in modern times and used to feed a dog, the dog would feel that it was being abused.
Kaede said calmly: "This is the food of this era. It's already very good to have pickled vegetables to eat."
Kagome didn't understand: "Isn't Kikyo a miko? Are the living conditions that bad?"
Kaede sighed: "There isn't much money to be made from exorcising demons for ordinary people, and most of the powerful people have exorcists and onmyoji, so my sister's income isn't very high. Whether it's money or food, there isn't much, so we can only save a little."
Kagome Higurashi immediately understood.
She originally thought that Kikyo was capable and could earn a lot of money.
But this era, like five hundred years later, wasn't one where you could succeed just by being capable.
If you were capable, you also needed a platform and someone to promote you.
Was Kikyo strong?
Of course she was strong.
If she went to become a guest of the powerful, she could naturally earn a lot, but as a guest, she wouldn't be free. With Kikyo's beauty, she would soon be taken advantage of.
Kagome Higurashi quickly figured this out and also knew why Kikyo had always been poor.
"Are we still eating this?" Kaede asked.
Kagome Higurashi retorted: "Of course not. Eating this kind of thing is like drinking a bowl of water, I'll be hungry in a while."
