I don't know how long it took to build the stone steps up the mountain.
The mottled moss on the stone steps looks like a special pattern, but both the boss and the maid know that these stone steps are not precious stones.
After passing through the vermilion torii gate, and climbing up about a hundred steps, this extremely long staircase is considered complete.
The sun has not yet emerged from the mountains, but the sky is already light. After finally reaching the halfway up the mountain where the shrine is located, Luo Qiu glanced back... The village below has become very small.
The appearance of the shrine was not much different from Luo Qiu's imagination. There is a box in front, which is probably used to store tribute money from worshipers. As for the left side, there is a wooden railing covered with many wooden signs.
New Year's wishes.
The villagers of Wasao Village will come to visit every new year, and then write down their prayers for the next year and hang them here. Luo Qiu seemed very interested, so he walked directly to the wooden fence and watched it carefully.
Gradually dawn.
In the early morning, it is officially the quietest time. However, some birds that live in groups in the mountains rushed to the sky from the distant mountains at this time.
"So many crows." You Ye seemed a little displeased as he watched them form and move away.
Because the crow's cry is not as good as the oriole's after all, and in people's inherent concept, it seems to represent an unknown thing, but for the owner and maid of the club, there is no such thing as an unknown thing. So... it can only be described as not beautiful.
Luo Qiu just smiled, and after reading the words of prayer on the signs hung on the wooden railings, he walked directly to the front of the shrine, and suddenly said amusedly: "People pay homage to the gods in order to obtain blessings, if we also If we visit the shrine, I don’t know if there is anyone who can bless us.”
Bless what? I am afraid that even being brave enough to show up is also a question.
You Ye shook his head slightly, and Luo Qiu stopped this topic, and then looked at the rattle hanging in front of him. After people put down the tribute money, they will shake the bell here sincerely, and there is even a requirement for the number of times. Everything has a rigorous and pious process.
"who are you?"
The one who made the inquiry was the priestess who was in charge of guarding the shrine, and she came from the other side of the wooden fence where the prayer cards were placed. There is also a stone-paved path opposite this, which seems to lead to the rear of the shrine.
The maiden was young, she was wearing a plain kimono, and she was carrying a small wooden barrel in her hand. Her hair seemed very long, almost falling to her heels, but it was wet at this time.
Boss Luo's eyesight is very good, and the maid's eyesight is naturally not bad, so it is easy to see the trace of moisture on the witch.
Maybe it just finished washing.
Luo Qiu looked at the witch and nodded, then smiled and said, "Hello."
A hint of doubt flashed across the witch's face, but she also nodded at the same time, and walked slowly with a wooden bucket. She was a little surprised, because the costumes of this couple were unusually weird.
But weirder, even weirder things have happened to Miko. So curious, but not too surprised, "Are you from another village?"
As they got closer, with the help of the brighter light in the sky, the witch could already see clearly the appearance of the man and woman. She grew up on this land since she was a child, and she has a deep memory of the people in the same land, and she can recognize strangers at a glance.
"Well, let's pass by." Luo Qiu nodded.
This witch is very young, even a little younger than when she was five years ago, so her body is also very petite, as petite as a girl who can't grow up.
But her hair is really long... black hair, it looks straight because of washing, and the tip of the hair is still dripping with water. She was even more puzzled, but she still asked politely: "Are you going to pay homage?"
"No." Luo Qiu shook his head, "I want to be blessed, but the gods may not be able to give it to me."
Surprised, the miko opened her mouth slightly. In front of the shrine and the guardian priestess, saying such words seems to be a kind of disrespect without gods.
She should be mad... but she isn't.
She looked at the sky and knew that it was very early, so she was puzzled by the couple who came up at this time. It took a long time to walk up the mountain. So they may have come up before daybreak...or even earlier.
"Since you don't want to pay homage, then please go ahead." In the end, the witch did not intend to blame the two for their disrespect to the gods, but her attitude was a little colder.
But she was too young, and this trace of indifference did not look like an iceberg, but rather an angry smell.
"Can you walk around?" Boss Luo thought for a while, "I won't touch anything here... promise."
"As you please." The witch said indifferently, then glanced at Luo Qiu, and suddenly said: "However, you'd better leave this place as soon as possible."
"It really is because you didn't pay homage?" Luo Qiu asked apologetically.
The witch shook her head, "It's very dangerous for a man to stay in this village... especially if you're from another village."
"Danger?"
"That's all for now." The priestess lifted the bucket again, walked through the front door and entered the shrine.
Luo Qiu breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the finally closed door. If it was dangerous, the signboards for praying hung on the wooden railing next to it were probably more dangerous, right
"I don't know how Alex is preparing." Boss Luo said abruptly.
You Ye said softly: "Arix only needs us to contain one of them he thinks, in order to preserve more true souls in this false world. Since the requirements are not high, we naturally need more preparations. "
Boss Luo smiled and looked at the position of the stone steps leading up, "The first one came... so it was him."
…
A shadow quickly ran up the steep stone steps.
The bright red robe, silver-white hair... is the pursuit of a half-demon in this world. But Zhuifeng was obviously not alone, he was carrying an unconscious woman on his back at this moment.
When I go out, I can always pick up injured and unconscious guys. Zhuifeng also feels quite helpless. The last time it was Zixing, because he sensed the weak monster power of Zixing. As a monster, Zhuifeng naturally cannot be regarded as an ordinary person. Treat without asking.
As for this time... this comatose and injured woman doesn't seem to be an ordinary person.
"Is anyone here?"
Having just climbed to the end of the stone steps, Zhuifeng shouted hastily. The reason why he came to this place was because of some memories left in his body.
"Is anyone there?" Chasing Feng approached a few steps at this time, facing the door of the shrine, and shouted loudly again. At this moment, the ears on his head trembled slightly.
Because he heard the sound of footsteps, as expected, not long after, a young priestess in a white kimono with wet hair opened the door.
"Inuyasha..."
Her ears were so sensitive, Zhuifeng could easily hear the name that the priestess pronounced in a very soft voice. It's just that the priestess frowned at the same time, seeming a little displeased, "Inuyasha, why are you still here? I've already said... Who is the person behind you?"
Zhuifeng doesn't know what the relationship between Inuyasha and this witch is, and he only came here with the guidance of his body memory. Of course, he also has some ideas of finding clues to this bizarre incident.
"I don't know him either." Zhuifeng shook his head and said, "I picked it up on the road. I was seriously injured and unconscious. Can you help me take a look?"
The witch tilted her head and thought for a while, then nodded, "Bring her in."
Chasing the wind hastily walked around the box for enshrinement with the person on his back, and walked into the shrine. But he just put the person down, and before he had time to look inside the shrine, he heard the voice of the witch, "Just put the person down, you can go out."
The other party's attitude was a bit too tough, and Zhuifeng had the idea of retreating for some reason... a feeling of inconceivable fear that he himself felt.
strangeness.
Until the witch closed the door and Zhuifeng sat alone on the wooden ladder in front of the door, he still felt very confused... Maybe this Inuyasha was afraid of this woman in the first place
Zhuifeng was a little puzzled, looked around boredly, and saw many signs hanging on the wooden railing next to him. Because he was too bored, he stepped forward, rubbed his chin and tilted his head to look at it, "What is written...'The coming year...a good harvest', 'I hope to give birth to a...son'? This word means son, right? ?”
After a while, the voice of the priestess suddenly came from the shrine, "Inuyasha!"
Chasing Feng hurriedly approached, but the door still didn't open, he could only listen through the distance, and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Where did you meet this woman?"
"On the way." Zhuifeng thought for a while: "On the way to the village... By the way, is this woman hopeless?"
"I can't die for now, but I'm seriously injured. And she seems to be..."
"Like what?" The head of the Chasing Wind Youth League, Master Zhui Feng, was burning with gossip.
But there was no sound inside the door, but the sound of footsteps was heard.
Zhuifeng put his ears on the door curiously, wanting to listen more carefully, but unexpectedly the door was opened all of a sudden, and Zhuifeng could only take two steps back in embarrassment, "I didn't eavesdrop!"
"Sure enough, you are still stubborn and not polite." There was a trace of sullenness in the witch's voice.
Zhuifeng was shocked, of course the sullen voice didn't scare him, but what the woman was holding made him feel dangerous!
This is a longbow that the woman brought from nowhere, and she even has a quiver on her back... A long arrow has already been placed on the longbow, and the sharp arrow is pointing straight!
"Wait, what do you want to do!"
"I said, if you dare to step into this place again, I will kill you!"
As soon as the words fell, the witch let go of her fingers, and the sharp arrow shot out through the air, flying past Zhuifeng's cheek, so fast that he couldn't react.
"Hey! I have no enmity with you, what do you mean!" Zhuifeng frowned!
I can hit humans, it doesn't matter if it's a man or a woman!
The witch snorted coldly, took out a long arrow and hit it again, and shot it again in an instant. This time, Zhuifeng came to his senses, reached out without thinking, and took the arrow in his hand. It's just that I didn't expect a burning sensation to come from the shaft of the arrow!
it hurts!
Zhuifeng threw the arrow away at once, and glanced at the palm of his hand... smoke was smoking, and the flesh on the palm of his hand had even been scorched, looking bloody and bloody.
"What a stupid guy... dare to take my soul-shattering arrow with his hands!" The witch said coldly at this time: "Inuyasha, you are really the stupidest monster ever!"
"Damn woman, don't think I'm afraid of you... look at me!" Zhui Feng was obviously enraged, and jumped out in an instant!
But at this moment, the witch shot another arrow... The dead woman's arrow seemed to be going up a lot sooner.
Zhuifeng's body twisted in mid-air, narrowly dodging the arrow... but he also let the sharp arrow cut through his clothes, and only heard a snap, and something came out of his body. Dropped in the clothes.
a book!
After Zhuifeng woke up, he had already put the book on his body.
But Zhuifeng still had control over this kind of thing, he just felt that the dead woman's arrow was too dangerous, so he quickly distanced himself and looked at her very vigilantly.
The witch frowned, walked out of the shrine, picked up the book on the ground, glanced at it, looked at Zhuifeng again, and asked abruptly, "What do you mean?"
"For you..." Zhui Feng just finished speaking, and he was stunned for a moment. The words came out of his mouth, not what he wanted to say.
"You...do you still remember?" The witch glanced again, but her expression seemed a little complicated.
"Uh... um!" Zhuifeng nodded, seeing that the other party seemed to be about to stop because of the book.
Zhuifeng is naturally not stupid, so he simply nodded generously, "Well, I have always carried it, it should be... no, it is for you!"
The witch didn't say anything, she put down the longbow while holding the book, and walked towards the shrine after reincarnating.
"Wait a minute, what do you mean?"
She turned her head to look back, and said indifferently: "You go, don't come again... If you come again, I will kill you!"
"Wait a minute, I have something I want to ask you!" Zhuifeng asked quickly, "Have you ever seen a person named Zixing? She is about the same height as you, by the way, she is also very beautiful!"
"roll!"
A sharp arrow was instantly nailed to Zhuifeng's feet, and the arrow even continued to exude a terrifying aura that made Zhuifeng shudder!
Zhuifeng subconsciously swallowed his saliva, but saw that the door of the shrine was closed at this time, so he quietly moved his feet... This dead woman is so scary!
Chasing the wind to disturb his head, he simply backed away, and then quickly left this place. Since he woke up, he has had a strange thought in his heart, but after the book was sent out, this strange thought disappeared.
He immediately felt much more comfortable, and he didn't mind being forced back by this dead woman... As for the life and death of the woman he picked up, he naturally didn't care even more.
