Chapter 2019 Journey to Gensokyo
***
The Kohaku Princess is a person of action. After she put down the work of cleaning the shrine, she immediately went back to her room to get ready. I thought she wanted to change her clothes. After all, wearing an armpit-baring miko outfit and walking around in her hometown was still a little bit... Shameful, as the saying goes, it's embarrassing to the point of being embarrassed... Uh, is that what it means?
However, I obviously underestimated the shame of the red and white princess. Within a few seconds, her door opened, and I was still surprised at how quickly she changed her clothes. Could it be that she yelled and transformed and then wow? With a sound, he changed his clothes in the white light.
It's a pity that this guy didn't change any clothes and was still wearing the same armpit-baring witch costume. Apparently her hometown couldn't stop her from selling her moral integrity.
If there was any change compared to before, it was that she had an extra basket on her back, similar to the baskets that traveling merchants always carry on their backs.
I:"……"
Red and White Princess: "..."
"Go pick up moral integrity?" I tried to ask. After all, as long as she has another hook in her hand, wouldn't she look like those homeless people picking up garbage? Maybe the sales for Jie Zheng are almost gone, so I plan to go down the mountain to pick up some.
I think my reasoning is well-founded and convincing, because the other party is the Princess of One Hundred Thousand Integrity. What is the Princess of One Hundred Thousand Integrity? It does not mean that she has one hundred thousand integrity, but that each time she sells her integrity, it is in units of one hundred thousand. .
"Oh, that's so rude."
Maybe my thoughts were expressed on my face, but the red and white princess saw it clearly, and she showed a slightly dissatisfied expression.
"The food reserves of the shrine have been almost exhausted. We have to go down the mountain to buy some. Yesterday, an enemy foolishly offered a large sum of money. Huh heh heh."
"Yes! That stupid scapegoat is standing right in front of you! And I'm swearing in my heart that I will never worship him again!" I burst into tears and angrily shook my mind.
"Hmph, you are so naive. Creatures like women have known how to empty a man's wallet since they were born. Give up resistance."
"Apologise to all the good women in the world, now!"
all in all. It seems that I can't stop the red and white princess from coming down the mountain in such a weird dress.
"Aren't you going to be cold?" There was another gust of cold wind on the top of the mountain, which made me shudder involuntarily. I asked as I looked at the cool and bare armpit-revealing witch costume of the Red and White Princess.
"Because it's made of talisman paper, it has a heating function." The red and white princess tugged on her collar and said nonchalantly.
This is the business opportunity. What a huge business opportunity!
I roared in my heart, but I wouldn't tell the Red and White Princess why she was teasing me just now.
"At least the exposed parts will be cold." He looked up and down at the princess of 100,000 integrity, especially looking at her armpits, you know.
"Women are very cold-resistant creatures."
"I always feel like you are about to say something very rude to a woman again."
"As long as the [Beep] and [Beep] parts are warm enough, it's actually fine, so I said. I put heating talisman paper on both the [Beep] and [Beep] parts, and the effect is outstanding." Hong Princess Bai gave me a hearty thumbs up.
I:"……"
I won’t complain, and I won’t complain even to death this time.
"Because it's too hot, these two places are a little sweaty. No... maybe it's not sweat."
I:"……"
Hold it back, I am the savior, you must hold it back!
"A strange feeling came over me. Is this the Huaichun girl mentioned in the book?"
I:"……"
No... not anymore. It’s okay for everyone, just beat me unconscious, otherwise I will lose! Oooo! ! !
Fortunately, after three moral attacks, the red and white princess finally restrained herself, closed her eyes and looked at my suppressed blushing face carefully.
"Wu. It's quite hard."
Whose fault is it that I have to work so hard?
After glaring at her, I stepped forward without saying a word, took the lead through the torii gate, and climbed the long and winding stone steps down the mountain.
Round and round. Going around and around, when I looked back, I found that the top of the mountain had been shrouded in a layer of white mist. Then I looked back at the bottom of the mountain and found that I had only completed half the journey.
Damn it, this is even higher than the Demon Fortress.
"This shrine is too high." I couldn't help but say.
"Hmph, this will show the superior status of the miko clan like us."
"But then ordinary people won't be able to step up and worship."
After saying that, the red and white princess suddenly stopped in her steps, her face turned pale, and heavy sweat continued to appear on her face.
"Could it be that...we only discovered this problem now?"
Nodding, nodding, the red and white princess, who was struck by lightning in her soul, was speechless.
I:"……"
This guy is so cute in an unexpected place.
"Why don't we just move the shrine to the foot of the mountain?" I suggested.
"No, that place is special, and the shrine can only be built in that location." The Red and White Princess categorically objected, and her expression was serious, leaving me unable to find any other reason to continue persuading.
"But it's so high that ordinary people can't get up and can't get offerings. It's also a fact that non-human beings who can get up won't obediently make offerings, right?"
The red and white princess squatted on the ground with her head in her hands, whining, what a pitiful guy.
In fact, I want to say, wouldn’t it be enough to establish a shrine branch at the foot of the mountain? Of course, I wouldn't say this to her who has no business mind. Don't you find it interesting to see the Red and White Princess worrying about money and selling her integrity? Hahaha.
After finally descending the mountain, walking on a deep path through a forest, the view ahead finally became flat and wide, the road became larger, and the marks of livestock and wheels could be faintly seen on it.
After walking for several more miles, other figures finally appeared sparsely on the road.
"Human?" I was a little surprised.
"If you want to count the numbers, the majority of people in Gensokyo must be humans. There is nothing surprising." The Kohaku Princess said calmly.
"Did these people come in from outside, or have they always been living in Gensokyo?"
"Who knows? Anyway, they have been living here since I was sensible, and no outside humans have come in, except for Wu."
"Could it be that I am the first outside guest in these years?"
"Unfortunately not." The red and white princess replied quickly, which surprised me a little.
"But. This is my first benefactor."
"Can you please don't use such misleading terms?" I looked at the passers-by on both sides and asked in a low voice.
"Is it because you think it's not subtle enough? There's really nothing you can do about it, so just go straight and use a prostitute."
"What a straight shot... No, what does it mean to be straight? It's so serious!" I was about to cry. I really can't keep my moral integrity with this guy.
"We have obviously had such a romantic dinner together, under my service. Then we slept in the same room, and now we are still talking like this." The red and white princess looked at me with a resentful look that started with confusion but gave up.
"It's the same shrine, the same [Shrine]!" I corrected, gritting my teeth and glaring at her.
"Hohoho, Your Highness Lingmeng, are you your partner?" At this time. Suddenly, an old woman carrying a vegetable basket came on the road. She looked over with a smile and greeted her kindly.
"I'm sorry, it's really inappropriate for you to see him making such a fuss." The Red and White Princess pressed my head and bowed slightly.
Wait, who am I making such a fuss about?
Looking at the red and white princess who suddenly became dignified and elegant. My eyes widened and I was speechless.
"We have a really good relationship. Your face looks strange. Is it a monster?"
"No, just an ordinary human being."
"Really? Then you have to work hard, hey, hey, it's better to be young." With that said, the old woman waved to us kindly and walked to another fork in the road.
"Monster?" I pointed at the old woman's back. asked.
"Yes, because there are many other weird races in Gensokyo, so for convenience, we use monsters to describe them all."
"Is Cirno also a monster?"
"Occasionally, they are regarded as monsters, but more often than not, they are regarded as fairies. There are still a lot of fairies in Gensokyo, enough to form a separate title."
"Oh. In other words, monsters are those weird and rare races."
"That's right."
"How many races are there in Gensokyo?"
"I haven't counted them carefully, but it's probably not less than a hundred."
"So many?" I was shocked. Suddenly, it seemed that the title of Prince of Hundred Clans was not so difficult to achieve.
Just kidding, hey.
"You are the only one in your clan of miko, are you also regarded as a monster?"
"No, miko is special. She is the guardian of this Gensokyo, so her status is closer to that of a god in people's minds."
"It's a pity that I can't receive the offerings, right?"
These words were like a sharp arrow, piercing straight into the heart of the red and white princess, causing her to groan and cover her chest in pain, unable to speak.
"Hmph, just wait and see. Sooner or later, I will definitely become a rich man with too much paper to use up."
Seeing the red and white princess staring at me with evil eyes, I turned my head and whistled.
Sorry, I really don’t want to compete with you about who has more paper, even though I am in a state of complete victory now.
Soon, we approached the village in front of us, and the number of pedestrians on the road began to increase. The Red and White Princess probably still has a certain reputation in Gensokyo. Everyone would smile and greet her respectfully along the way, and she seemed to be really serving as a protector. The author deserves praise for giving Gensokyo a bit of a realistic look.
However, I also gradually discovered that what the Red and White Princess just said about "more than a hundred races" is absolutely true.
Before entering the village, I saw many other races just on the road.
Needless to say about the elves, hundreds of thousands of years ago, they were the first race in the Dark Continent. Under the leadership of King Arthur, they became the strongest race in the continent. Human beings still accepted their favor and protection before slowly It grew and grew slowly.
Therefore, I am not surprised to see elves with pointy ears here.
However, the first thing that surprised me is that the elves and humans get along very harmoniously, as if they are the same race. There is no sense of gap at all. This kind of close relationship seems to have only happened before humans and elves broke up. . And that time was at least tens of thousands of years ago.
In other words, did these humans and elves enter Fantasyland at least tens of thousands of years ago and reproduce from generation to generation?
With this question, I looked at the red and white princess. But she found that this stingy Princess of Honesty was still angry with me for exposing her vagina just now. She snorted, turned her head, pointed the big red bow on the back of her head, and ignored me.
Whatever...
Another thing that surprised me was that I saw quite a few other races. For example, dwarves. Speaking of dwarves, they are also considered a major race in the Dark Continent, especially the dwarf blacksmiths, who are particularly famous.
The orcs can also be seen. In addition to the most common werewolves and foxes, there are also Tamoya's companions, the bears. In addition, I also saw one or two lion-men and tiger-men that I had never seen before. It was like a zoo, which made me grin from ear to ear in surprise.
However, when I entered the village, I realized that I was too naive just now.
Lions, tigers, and tigers are all ordinary things. I actually saw the giants in a blacksmith shop.
I said Lukogas, your giant clan seems to have no queen, right? You look at the guy, happily knocking on some daily utensils. On the table are iron pots, shovels, kitchen knives, etc. for sale. If the ancestors of the giants were here, they would see these. I'm afraid I'll be so angry that I'll beat this guy to death with a stick.
"Be careful of goblins." Seeing me looking around and unable to use my eyes, the red and white princess warned me.
Following her gaze, I looked down and saw two little fingers. The little fairies emitting a faint light were right between my feet, playing and playing with each other. If I wasn't careful, I might step on them.
I quickly stopped and saw these two goblins chasing each other, dragging a beautiful fluorescent light behind them, flying in front of me, saying thank you in a small voice, and then kissed both sides of my cheeks, and laughed again. He flew away laughing.
I originally thought that the kiss between Elijah and Little King was mini enough, but I didn't expect that there would be an even mini kiss. I touched both sides of my cheeks and looked at the two little goblins flying into the crowd to fight, and I looked a little confused. subtle.
"It's great to be popular. Let's just include the entire goblin clan in the harem." The Red and White Princess said sarcastically.
"Don't you think it's weird?" I pointed at the two goblins and asked in surprise as I looked at the people passing by them with normal expressions on their faces.
"Why should you be surprised? Would you be surprised if two puppies ran near your feet?" the red and white princess asked in return.
"In other words, there are as many fairies here in Gensokyo as there are cats and dogs in the Dark Continent, right?"
"That's pretty much it, except there are many types of goblins, small and big. Like the one just now, it's not the smallest one. The smallest one is only a little bit smaller than a firefly, and the big goblin is the idiot who mistook you for your mother. That’s it.”
"Stop talking." This time it was me holding my head and moaning, finally forgetting this cruel fact, why do humans hurt each other!
From this point of view, it's not that Gensokyo is weird, but that I am too different and fussy in Gensokyo.
I just want to say this.
"Sorry, give me a pan." I quickly returned to the Giant store just now, pointed at a pan and shouted loudly.
The giant blacksmith is ten times better than the dwarf blacksmith. I have never heard of a giant blacksmith who would lower his status and make such small gadgets. So after talking about this village, there is no such shop. .
Willas will probably like it. Such a strong pan is unique in the world, and it may not even be comparable to the one made by Mudiao Winter Melon.
By the way, am I looking for death?
When I paid for it, my cheeks became moist for some reason. When I took the pan from the giant blacksmith, I already imagined my own blood staining the pan.
This is like carving a bleeding groove for each tooth of the little ghost.
"The Wu looks so funny, I even cried when I bought something."
"You won't understand my sorrow." I looked at the red and white princess lightly, my face deep and vicissitudes of life.
All in all, the next time you see Rukogas, you should tell him about this. There is another one of his kind in Gensokyo, maybe more than one, so there is no need to rush to find other inheritors.
Speaking of this, I remember how Qiaxi is doing now? After checking with her father, Hasuk, I still didn’t receive any news from Chaxi when I set off for the Third World.
Perhaps, the inheritance of Rukogas was indeed too heavy for her.
With a sigh, I put the pan away silently and continued to hang out with the red and white princess.
The basket on the back of the Red and White Princess is not simply used as a decoration, or used to collect and sell virtues. For example, she just passed by a vegetable stall and bought dozens of vegetables that were shaped like cabbage. These The vegetables that were enough to fill the basket behind her, when they were all stuffed into the basket, turned out to be the size of a grain, occupying only one corner of the basket.
This... must be something like space magic. Is it really necessary to use such an advanced technique on a basket?
"I said, you should have something like an inventory."
"Yes." The red and white princess admitted honestly. I just said, the money box must be placed inside.
"Then let me use it. Why bother?" I pointed to the basket behind her.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, I thought Wu would understand." The red and white princess looked at me with a look of disappointment.
"Enjoying ordinary people's lives is also a kind of fun."
"Really?" I glanced around, and there were indeed many ordinary women carrying baskets similar to those of the red and white princesses on their backs. They came out to buy and put the purchased things inside. Of course, those were just ordinary baskets. Not as cruel as the Red and White Princess.
"Of course I know about this kind of thing, I just didn't expect you to have such an idea." I kept looking at the red and white princess and said.
"Maybe it would be more convincing if I changed into normal clothes."
A weird guy wearing an armpit-baring witch costume and carrying a basket on his back actually pointed at me and told me that enjoying ordinary people's lives is a kind of fun. Do you think I haven't read a book?
