The dense forest blocks out the sky and the sun is almost invisible, and the rugged path is overgrown with weeds, almost covering the only road.

“So…” Sakata Gintoki grabbed his natural roll, and said with some laziness, “Why did we get lost? We obviously went according to the map.”

“It’s Aru.” Kagura pursed his lips with vinegar in his mouth, “I’ve been walking around here for several hours, and I still can’t find the way out.”

Shimura Shinpachi looked at the map in his hand and was full of resentment: “Let’s go on like this, not to mention finding the hot spring village, even whether we can go out is a problem. We won’t be trapped here for the rest of our lives.”

Jiu Tsujisan looked at the three powerless people silently, and glanced around: “I always feel that this place is a bit strange, and I haven’t seen any living things since before.”

“Well, this is really strange, I didn’t even see a single bug.” Sakata Gintoki also frowned.

As soon as the words fell, Kagura began to dig ferociously on the ground beside him, and the soil splashed everywhere, comparable to a new generation of humanoid excavators.

Everyone: “…”

Shimura Shinpachi twitched the corners of his mouth as he watched the rapidly appearing deep pit: “Kagura, what are you doing?”

“Digging for bugs.” Kagura said confidently, “Let me see if there is really no bug here, Aru.”

“Idiot, you!” Sakata Gintoki slapped Kagura’s head directly, and was knocked to the ground by Kagura.

“You’re the idiot, I…” Before Kagura finished speaking, Jiu Tsuji-san abruptly interrupted.

“Leave quickly!” Jiu Tsuji-san shrank his pupils when he saw the sudden appearance of the swamp, trying to pull them away from this place, but instead he also sank into it.

“Ah, why did a swamp suddenly appear below us!?” Shimura Shinpachi flopped about in the swamp like a fish about to drown.

“It’s definitely Kagura’s fault. You must have angered the mountain god and sent down punishment! That’s absolutely true! Ah Yin is innocent!” Sakata Yintoki also struggled hard but got deeper and deeper.

“No, I just dug a hole, and the swamp is Aru who suddenly appeared by itself.” Kagura retorted with only one head left outside.

“That’s enough for you guys…” Jiu Tsuji-san couldn’t take it anymore with a black face, at this moment the swamp was churning, and several people fell into it in the blink of an eye, and the swamp was calm again, looking like an ordinary swamp.

When several people woke up, they found that they were lying beside a lake. The surrounding scenery was the same as before, except that the swamp was replaced by a lake.

“… Ah Yin’s memory should be right and messed up. Why do we wake up after being sucked into a swamp and see it turned into a clear lake? Do we have a cleaning function? A cleaning function that turns a swamp into clear water? No, it’s impossible…” Sakata Gintoki squatted by the lake with his head in his arms, looking at the reflection and thinking.

“Shut up.” Jiu Tsuji-san unceremoniously pulled Sakata Gintoki away, then frowned and looked at the lake, tentatively stretching his hand in.

It is no different from an ordinary lake, and there is nothing strange about it.

Shimura Shinpachi looked around and looked at the lake and muttered, “What’s going on here?”

“Let’s leave first, Aru who always thinks this place is weird.” Kagura said hesitantly.

“Me too, for now…” Before finishing speaking, Jiu Tsuji-san’s words stopped abruptly.

Sakata Gintoki and the others looked over strangely, only to see Jiu Tsuji-san staring at the sky expressionlessly.

Looking up along the line of sight, I can only see two red full moons hanging above the sky that was originally obscured by the dense trees.

Shimura Shinpachi gasped: “That… what?”

“Probably… crossed to the MU continent?” Sakata Gintoki said dryly.

“Ayin, I always feel that ghosts will appear around me at any moment, Aru.” Kagura came to Jiu Tsuji-san’s side, one hand still tugging at her sleeve.

As soon as he finished speaking, Shimura Shinpachi didn’t say anything, only saw Sakata Gintoki hid behind Jiu Tsuji-san with a “whoosh”, holding her other hand cautiously and firmly.

“Ayin, are you embarrassed?” Shimura Shinpachi had a few black lines hanging from his forehead, “Hiding behind Tsuji-san.”

“I, I’m just afraid that Tsuji-san will be scared.” Sakata Gintoki also seemed to think that this was too much, then he straightened his face and changed to standing beside Tsuji-san, holding her hand tightly with one hand.

Jiu Tsujisan was silent for a moment, then tried to pull out his hand but failed, glanced at the nervous Sakata Gintoki and said indifferently: “I’m sweating a lot.”

“No, that’s that…it’s definitely the lake water from before, it’s not sweat or anything.” Sakata Gintoki sighed guiltyly, with cold sweat breaking out slightly on his forehead.

“Gin, don’t make excuses, we all know Aru anyway.” Kagura poked his head out and looked at Sakata Gintoki with contempt.

“Let’s think about how to get out first.” Shimura Shinpachi felt haggard all over.

Didn’t you go to the hot spring to relax?It’s more like a jungle adventure now, asshole.

“Let’s go.” Jiu Tsujisan took the lead in walking in one direction, and then several people followed.

Not long after he left, Kagura suddenly called out: “Ah, rabbit.”

Jiu Tsujisan also noticed that she could gradually see various animals and insects along the way, but this made her a little surprised, after all, she couldn’t see anything except plants before.

“Hoo!” There was a sound of piercing through the air, and then they saw a wooden arrow appear on the rabbit’s body, and it was firmly nailed to the ground.

“Who are you?” followed by a clear and youthful voice.

Then they saw a handsome young man coming out of the shadows with a bow and arrow, but he didn’t approach him, his eyes were full of vigilance.

“We’re just lost, not someone suspicious.” Shimura Shinpachi immediately waved his hands and declared.

“Hey, boy, can you tell me where this place is? How do we get out?” Sakata Gintoki also extended his hand in greeting.

Then they saw the young man looking at them with strange and probing eyes, walked over after a few seconds of silence, picked up the dead rabbit and said, “Come with me.” Then Turn around and walk in the direction he appeared.

They looked at each other and followed.Jiu Tsuji-san hesitated for a moment, then took Sakata Gintoki’s hand with his backhand.

Sakata Gintoki at the side had not had time to feel happy when he realized that words had been written on the palm of his hand, narrowed his eyes slightly, and then held Jiu Tsuji-san’s hand as if nothing had happened.

“Do you know where there is a hot spring near here, Aru?” There was silence all the way, and finally Kagura asked uncontrollably.

“No.” The boy’s tone remained unchanged.

“Eh? No?” Shimura Shinpachi slightly opened his eyes, “We obviously went right.”

The boy glanced at Shimura Shinpachi, and frowned slightly: “Wrong?”

“Well, this is it.” Shimura Shinpachi said and showed the map to the boy, and then saw his deeply frowning brows.

“There’s a ‘wall’ over there, there’s no way there will be anyone, let alone hot springs.” The boy said a little coldly.

“Wall?” Jiu Tsuji-san said suddenly.

However, the boy didn’t answer any more, he just said, “Going out soon.”

After a while, they saw the forest thinning out, and then a boundless water-colored world appeared in front of them, and various wooden houses were sparsely scattered to form a village.

And when they looked up, the red moon that they had vaguely seen before was also clearly displayed in their line of sight. Two identical red moons hung opposite each other, giving people a sense of eerie.

“Two red moons?” Sakata Gintoki murmured with some difficulty.

“Isn’t what I saw before really an illusion!?” Shimura Shinpachi held his head and shouted bitterly, “This must be the wrong posture for us to wake up! It must be!”

At this moment, the boy glanced at them and said calmly, “You are indeed outsiders.”

Looking at the wooden houses on the water, Jiu Tsujisan asked calmly, “So can you tell us where this place is?”

“I’ll take you to meet the village head.” The boy said and walked towards the water.

Before they could say anything in the future, they saw the boy’s feet stepping directly on the water, making continuous ripples, but did not sink.

“What is this?” Sakata Gintoki twitched the corners of his mouth, “Ninja? Chakra? Walking on water?”

Hearing this, the young man gave him a strange look: “What are you talking about? Come quickly.”

Looking tangledly at the endless water surface in front of him, Kagura also walked up, and ended up stepping on the water like that boy, so they continued to follow under the boy’s slightly impatient eyes.

And after seeing the so-called village chief, several people were stunned.

It was an extremely young and beautiful girl. The red and white maiden costume made her look more noble and holy, and her gaze was as gentle as water.

“Shun Yi, you’re back.” The girl put down the herb in her hand and looked at the boy.

Shun Yi saluted respectfully and replied: “Yes, Lord Wuye, I found these outsiders in the Central Forest.”

The girl known as Wuye smiled slightly, as warm as a spring breeze: “I understand.” Then she looked at them and finally set her eyes on Jiu Tsuji-san, “Everyone, come in first, you can go back in a blink of an eye .”

And after following that witch into the house, the first thing she said to Jiu Tsuji-san was: “You are a demon slayer.”

There was a moment of silence in the room.
