In this episode, the group comes across a village where the villagers are being terrorized by a demon named Mukotsu. Mukotsu has been using poisonous gases to attack the villagers and has also kidnapped the village chief's daughter.

As the group investigates the situation, they encounter a wandering monk named Miroku who is traveling with a young girl named Koharu. Miroku is a charming and flirtatious character who is known for using his powerful spiritual abilities to exorcise demons. However, it quickly becomes clear that Miroku has a bit of a dark side when it comes to women, as he is constantly hitting on Koharu and making inappropriate comments.

When Mukotsu attacks again, Miroku steps in to help the village, but he is quickly overpowered by the demon's poisonous gas. Mukotsu then captures Miroku and takes him back to his lair, intending to use him as a sacrifice to summon a more powerful demon.

Meanwhile, Inuyasha and the rest of the group are trying to figure out how to defeat Mukotsu and save the village chief's daughter. They soon come up with a plan to use their own powers to counteract Mukotsu's poison, but they realize that they need Miroku's help to make the plan work.

Back in Mukotsu's lair, Miroku is struggling to find a way to escape his captivity. He uses his wits to try to trick Mukotsu and his minions into letting him go, but they see through his schemes and prepare to sacrifice him to the demon.

Just when all seems lost, Inuyasha and company arrive to rescue Miroku. In a dramatic battle, they combine their powers to defeat Mukotsu and save the village. Miroku, grateful for his rescue, decides to join forces with the group and help them in their quest for the sacred jewel shards.

As the episode comes to a close, Miroku's true motives are called into question when Koharu reveals that he has been conning her out of her money in order to finance his wandering. The group is left to wonder whether they can truly trust this charming but somewhat shady monk.
