It's dawn. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

To be honest, I didn't get a good night's sleep on the first night.

Seeing a real youkai for the first time in my life, and seeing so many things that subvert cognition in one day, it is impossible for a sane person to take it lightly.

Pushing open the door of the firewood room, Mo Ming took a deep breath of cold air and stretched.

Either way, there's really nothing to say about the air quality here.

The Hakurei Shrine next to it was silent, and it seemed that the little witch hadn't gotten up yet.

"Remember the kitchen...... I think it's here......"

……

Mo Ming's original plan was to get up and make breakfast for the little witch, although she is a teacher and not a nanny, but for children, the first impression is very important.

However, now Mo Ming could only sigh at the empty kitchen.

It's hard for a good woman to cook without rice......

It's not that there is no rice, there are five bags of rice in the kitchen, and there is no shortage of oil, salt, sauce and vinegar.

But...... Mo Ming rummaged through the kitchen and didn't find any ingredients other than rice.

"What the hell are you kidding me?"

If there is a gap in the ability, Mo Ming must definitely catch Yayun Zi out and ask for clarification.

Before leaving, Yakumo Zi explained that she had a lot of things to do, and she might not show up for half a month to a month, and there were enough ingredients left in the kitchen of Hakurei Shrine.

Although it is true that he said something like "the ingredients are not very rich, let's make do with it...... But isn't that abundant? It's just rice!

Maybe the other party is a youkai who has lived for a long time, and he doesn't eat food at all on weekdays, and his consideration of human food is limited to "enough to eat" and "not starving to death".

"Youkai are youkai after all. ”

But now there is no point in sighing at all. In any case, eating only rice for a month is unacceptable to Mo Ming.

……

"Bang Bang!" In the small room next to the shrine, there was a constant sound in the utility room.

Mo Ming was working hard, and when she turned around, she saw a silent little loli standing at the door.

"Ahhh

There was no answer, and the little girl looked at the work in Mo Ming's hands and did not speak.

"Oh, this...... I'm going to make a flat ......."

An incomprehensible expression.

"The flat shoulder is ...... Alas, anyway, it's for picking things, I took a look, there is only rice in the kitchen, I plan to make some rice balls and pots, take them to the village and try to sell them, or change some other ingredients, you see you are still so young, eating rice all day long must be malnourished......"

Still with an incomprehensible expression.

Mo Ming was thinking about what to say next, which could liven up the atmosphere and bring the relationship closer.

"Pot ...... What is it?"

"Pot, rice, millet, soybeans can be made into pots, baked or fried, the made pots are crispy and delicious, my craftsmanship is absolutely a must! I just looked at it, we only have rice in this kitchen, but fortunately there is no shortage of oil and salt, and there are tools, so I can make some and sell them for money, or directly change some other ingredients to come back to improve my life. Ha ha. ”

The little girl swallowed silently.

……

For lunch, we had rice balls, and the next meal was soy sauce and spicy nabeka.

Mo Ming ate 4 rice balls, in order not to leave the impression of a foodie on the little witch, Mo Ming decided to eat half full, and save some appetite for lunch......

No way, from yesterday to now, I'm really hungry and prostration.

The little witch only ate one rice ball, but she ate a lot of pots.

After the meal, two people, one big and one small, sat on the porch with a teacup in the sun.

Mo Ming thought, in fact, this kind of leisurely life is quite good...... Of course, it would be nice if the food was a little richer.

……

The weather was good in the afternoon, so Mo Ming put the rice balls and pots to be sold into a basket and picked them up with a flat pole.

"Do you want to go together?" It seemed that the little witch had no intention of moving together, so Mo Ming had no choice but to ask.

Shake one’s head.

"Okay," Mo Ming put down his shoulder and rubbed his shoulders awkwardly, "Actually, I don't know the way, you see, it's the first time I'm here, it's inevitable, I mean...... Can you take me for a walk?"

……

The little witch walked in front, and Mo Ming followed behind with a flat pole.

Taking the little witch to a human village is out of Mo Ming's many considerations.

Coming to this strange place, everything is completely unknown. The information we have so far is only the words of the guy who calls himself the monster sage Yakumo Murasaki.

I don't even know if she's a monster.

Although it has been preliminarily ruled out that all this is an illusion deliberately created by someone in order to extract some useful information from himself, Mo Ming still has many mysteries to be solved.

"Little Shrine Maiden...... What's the matter with those winged girls hiding behind the trees?"

"It's a goblin. ”

"Cannibalism?"

"Some eat. ”

“…… Isn't that a dangerous situation?"

"They didn't dare to come. ”

"Why?"

"They can't beat me. ”

Mo Ming wanted to ask what she would do if she was going back and forth by herself, but considering her majesty in front of the students, she still kept silent.

……

……

It took about an hour to walk from Hakurei Shrine to the human village. On the way, you pass through a lot of farmland, and you can see a forest in the distance.

When passing by the farmland, Mo Ming observed in detail the crops grown here and their growth.

Mo Ming couldn't help nodding secretly, the original ecological crops, good things, are basically extinct outside.

"If you can, we'll exchange the money for some vegetables and fruits, and the apples and oranges in that field look good. ”

"Hmm. The little witch nodded in agreement.

However, the reality is often quite cruel.

None of the rice balls were sold.

Under the leadership of the little witch, Mo Ming found a place similar to a snack street, put down the flat pole at the corner of the street, and put out the rice balls and pots she had prepared.

Although he has eaten all the world's cuisines at a young age and has gorgeous cooking skills, Mo Ming is actually not very good at these more common foods.

Mo Ming himself knows very well that the rice balls he makes are actually just kneading the rice together, not only the shape is not very good, but the most important thing is that there is nothing that can match the rice balls in the shrine, there are no sour plums, no dates, no seaweed or seaweed.

It's a simple rice ball.

"I just looked around, and there is also a family that sells rice balls over there, but sure enough, it is still paired with seaweed and sour plum, and it looks better than our rice balls. ”

The little witch sat on the small bench next to her, tilting her head sideways, and I didn't know if she understood.

"It seems that we can take the rice balls back and eat them ourselves, so I decided to put the rice balls away because of the above considerations...... After all, if you put the pot and this kind of rice ball together, the person who comes to buy the pot will definitely think, 'Ah, the person who can make this kind of rice ball must make the pot rice ball very ordinary', and this situation should be avoided. ”

Mo Ming kept talking to herself, packing the rice balls into the basket.

The little witch still sat obediently next to her, and I don't know if she fell asleep.

……

There was a sudden silence on the street.

A woman of excellent temperament and appearance appeared at the corner of the street, and of course, no one would ignore the inverted triangle on her head, a headdress representing the undead.

"Yuyuko-sama, isn't it a bit ...... to buy so much" A little girl followed closely with two large baskets.

"Ah, Demon Dream, it's hard to come out, of course you have to buy enough reserves, Baiyulou can't eat fresh ingredients here every day. ”

"Well, yes...... But Yuyuko-sama ......"

"Go, pass, pass, pass, don't miss! Freshly baked rice pots! Spicy and spicy flavors are all available!" The sudden burst of shouts startled everyone, and could not help but make people look sideways, and also attracted the attention of the master and servant.

The little witch moved the bench silently, turned her head, and looked like "I don't know this guy".

"Ah, this guest, this is the rice pot that was just baked today, how about it, come and have a taste?"

The woman, who appeared to be named Yuyuko, nodded, picked up a piece of pot and threw it into her mouth.

"Click, click. ”

Take another slice.

"Click, click. ”

Take another slice ...... Pick up another slice of ...... Pick up another slice of ......

Mo Ming's face was about to darken.

"...... this guest?"

"Ahh......h That, I bought them all. The lady named Yuyuko also blushed a little and immediately said that she would buy them all.

Mo Ming exhaled. This pair of masters and servants who seem to have a lot of money will still pay.

"How much?" said a little girl named Youmeng who straddled two baskets.

“…… It's my first time selling here, and I don't know much about the currency here, so I'll give you some of it?"

"Yuyuko-sama?" the little girl looked back at her master. She's never seen that before.

"Click, click. ”

"Click, click. ”

"Huh?" Realizing that her eyes were focused on her, Yuyuko quickly stopped and prepared to pinch the pot again.

"Oh, that's it, you...... Is it an outsider?" Yuyuko glanced to the side.

Mo Ming was stunned for a moment and nodded.

"That's right......" Yuyuko nodded, took a gold ingot from Yume's money bag, put it on the stall, and then picked up the basket with the pot and left.

"Yuyuko-sama, let me take the basket......" The little girl chased after her.

Mo Ming looked at the gold ingot in his hand and hesitated a little.

Even on the outside, it is considered hard currency, but is it worthless in Gensokyo, where resources are scarce?

Picked it up and shook it at the little witch: "Is this thing valuable?"

Shook his head.

Do you not know or is it worthless? Mo Ming complained violently in his heart.

However, when Mo Ming took the ingot of gold to the pawn shop, he realized that he was really lucky.

Got rich......

……

……

"Mistress Yuyuko...... Shall I take the basket?"

"Click, click. ”

"Yuyuko-sama, the one in your hand...... Is it really that valuable?"

Yuyuko glanced at Yumeme strangely and stretched out the basket, "Taste a piece?"

Youmeng ate a piece, and it tasted really good.

"But...... Do you really need as much as a gold ingot? I bought a lot of ingredients before, and the total added up is not a tenth of a gold ingot. ”

"Youmeng, did you notice the little girl sitting next to the stall just now?"

After thinking about it carefully, Youmeng nodded.

"That's the shrine maiden of Hakurei. ”

"Ah!" the little girl was taken aback, "is that the one from Hakurei Shrine?"

"Well, that's the ...... The guardian of Gensokyo. ”

"But...... But...... Why is it so ......"

"So small, huh?"

"yes, it looks like he's younger than me......"

"I'm the same age as you. ”

"Really, it looks like it's ...... than me."

"I guess it's malnutrition......

Youmeng thought about it sideways, but decided not to complain.

"Click, click...... Demon Dream ......"

"What's wrong?"

"You might face that guy in the future~"

“…… Well. ”

"Have faith in yourself, Yumu. ”

"Well, I'll definitely practice my swordsmanship well and protect Yuyuko-sama!"

"Hmm. ”

"I like Yuyuko-sama the most!~"

“…… Click, click, click......"

Just after leaving the village, the basket of pots was gone.

……

……

The dinner was very rich. Four dishes and one soup.

Mo Ming is still very confident in her craft. Although he is only at the age of a weak crown and is almost constantly running around the world, Mo Ming, who adheres to hedonism, never treats his stomach badly.

I didn't eat enough at lunch, so I naturally ate a lot more for dinner.

Mo Ming devoured for a while, and found that most of the dishes had been eaten by herself, and she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, so she slowed down her eating speed and thought while eating.

It was quiet at the table, no one spoke.

Today, Mo Ming chatted with the little witch several times, but in fact, he didn't get any results.

The little girl is always very silent, and answers simple questions with a nod or shake of her head, and very simple sentences when she really needs to speak. Mo Ming was afraid that her words would cause disgust or resistance, and she didn't dare to be too noisy.

Maybe something happened to her heart and closed her heart, after all, she lived alone in this kind of place at a young age. Or maybe it's because the little girl rarely communicates with people, which leads to this personality. There are many possibilities.

After cleaning up the table and bowls, Mo Ming served a plate of cut oranges as after-dinner fruit. The little witch sat in the futon in a daze.

The kotatsu was newly bought, and I paid someone to move it back.

"I really didn't expect such a thing to happen," Mo Ming also sat in the kotatsu, spreading out a newly bought copy of "The Origin of Gensokyo Origin" on the table, "Today is my first day at the shrine, and it is also the first time I have been to the village, I didn't expect that little pot to be sold for so much money." ”

"I guess I ran into a local tyrant. ”

The little witch looked at Mo Ming and didn't speak. Maybe I didn't understand what the local tyrant meant.

"Reacquaint yourself, my name is Mo Ming, and in the coming days, I will be your teacher and the one who will teach you knowledge. Please advise. ”

The little girl also pulled her legs out of the kotatsu and sat up.

"Please advise. ”

finally got a response, but Mo Ming still wanted to cry.

In terms of etiquette, do you have to give your own name...... What's your name......

In fact, Yakumo Zi introduced it yesterday, but at that time, Mo Ming was in a great change, and his brain was running at high speed to analyze the current situation...... As a result, the katakana of the little witch's name was not remembered clearly......

Of course, Mo Ming, a Virgo who likes to dwell on some details, did not consider asking the name directly, because he thought that he did not remember the name of the little girl in the first place, which would give a bad impression to the little girl.

Do you still want to call her a little witch for the rest of the while?
