Somewhere in Maple Village.
A group of villagers, old and young, dressed in simple, ancient clothes, surrounded the three of them.
"I'll talk! Why are you surrounding us like this! That kind of gaze, as if he was looking at a precious animal, was really annoying!”
Gwen looked at the villagers unhappily.
Unfortunately, these people didn't care about Gagome's words and continued to discuss their identities.
"It's three men and women in strange clothes!”
"Are you from another country?"
"Are we going to war again?"
"It just had to be at the time of transplanting and sowing. We were already short of manpower.”
"It seems to have come from the forest where the half-demon was sealed!”
"Could that girl be a vixen?”
"No matter what it is, it's better than fighting a war!”
Gossip didn't change his expression in the face of their discussion. He calmly said to Gomi and Black Cat,"Don't mind their words, they're just some passersby.”
"Besides, compared to them, our clothes are indeed out of place in this era. It's not strange for us to attract attention.”
"Strange hairstyle, ancient hairpins, and ancient clothes. He also speaks ancient Japanese that is obviously different from modern Japanese. The Divine Imperial Wood and the Bone Eating Well were also here. There was an 80% chance that this was the Warring States Period!”The black cat girl calmly analyzed.
Although she looked so calm now, she was not calm in her heart! After all, they had really traveled through time and space and arrived in ancient times. How surreal was this?
Even now, her mind was still a little dizzy.
"Everyone, make way. The witch, Lady Maple, is here!”
At this moment, a voice sounded. The three gossipers turned their gazes to the source of the voice.
A very old granny wearing a witch's dress, holding a bow and arrow in her right hand and a strange bag in her left hand walked over with a group of people.
"This is a witch? Shouldn't witches be young girls?”
Gove and the black cat thought to themselves.
"Such a strange old woman, could she be a vicious witch?”Gomez cursed in her heart.
"She doesn't look like a witch, but more like a vicious witch from a fairy tale!”This was what the black cat girl thought.
As for gossiping, he was not surprised at all because he already knew the plot.
"Lord Feng, please take a look at them. Are they humans? Or a monster?" A villager asked.
"Let me take a look!"
The old woman in the witch costume handed the bow and arrow to the person next to her, then walked toward the Bagua 3 with a strange bag in her hand.
After walking to the three of them, she took out a handful of strange powder from the bag and sprinkled it on the three of them.
Bagua did not resist and allowed the strange powder to be sprinkled on his body. He discovered that the powder had a weak energy that could react to demonic qi. If he encountered an ordinary weak demon, this powder would most likely have exposed the demon's true form by now!
Unfortunately, Bagua was not an ordinary demon. With his deliberate restraint, even the most brilliant Onmyoji exorcist would not be able to sense a trace of demonic aura from him, let alone these little demon-repelling powder. They would definitely treat him as a real human!
As for why the Onmyoji had recognized Water Lotus Moon as a monster when she was shopping, it was because she hadn't put in the effort to conceal her demonic aura.
If she wanted to hide her identity as a monster, no one would be able to see through her disguise!
However, although the demon-repelling powder had no effect on the gossip, it had a little effect on the two girls. They choked and coughed a few times.
Gomez coughed violently and asked angrily,""Cough cough! Hey! What are you doing!"
"Cough, cough, cough, really, really rude person!”The black cat girl couldn't help but ask.
"Isn't it a monster?"
Magus heaved a sigh of relief. After all, with her current physical strength, she would not be able to deal with any monsters.
"Alright! Disperse! They were not monsters! They're just humans!" Old Witch, or Granny Feng, said to the surrounding villagers.
"As expected of a spy from the neighboring country!"
"There's going to be another war!"
After hearing Granny Feng confirm that the Bagua trio were not demons, the villagers nearby had different reactions. However, they were more worried than relieved.
Not only did the villagers hate demons who acted recklessly, but they also hated war.
In this era of war, these villagers at the bottom of society were very pitiful. Not only did they have to guard against demons that could attack at any time, but if the daimyo wanted to start a war, it would be even more difficult.
Not only would the young and middle-aged men be recruited into the army, but even the food would be confiscated. Without food and labor, the lives of the old, weak, sick, women, and children in this era could be imagined.
Moreover, it was the harvest season. If there were no men, it would be difficult for the elderly and women to harvest all the crops.
"What good is it to invade a remote and poor village like ours? Our village doesn't have enough food…"
Hearing the villagers 'discussion, Granny Feng immediately swept her gaze over them and refuted their worries loudly.
" Eh!!!"
Before she could finish her sentence, when Granny Feng saw Twilight Gomi's face again, a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes. Her eyes lit up as she walked in front of Twilight Gomi and carefully examined her face.
"Show me a smarter look!”
Granny Feng reached out and pinched Gwen's chin, twisting it left and right, slowly matching her face with the face in her memory.
