FLAG.4 Outside the village
January 5th, at noon.
In the human world, a female monk with a medicine basket walks on the street.
Sometime about a year ago, the streets of the village would be peddling medicines.
There are no temples or other facilities in the village, and this sudden appearance and unknown stranger naturally arouses the alarm of the villagers - there is only one human settlement in the entire Gensokyo, and since no one knows her, she must be from outside...... That's something to stay away from.
The hood and monk's robe are tightly wrapped around the body, and the four big characters "curing all diseases" are neatly and majestically written on the banner in his hand, and the strong contrast is that the whole person seems to be always dejected and spiritless, neither looking around nor shouting for business, as if routinely shuttling through the streets and alleys of the village like a ghost.
Not only did they look very suspicious, but there were also people who really wanted to test it or had an unspeakable hidden illness and planned to inquire, but the shouting startled the other party and ran away. I didn't even do a good job of being accosted.γIt's really hard to give people a feeling of reliability.γ
There were also some turnarounds later. In the eastern part of the village, a group of old people occasionally gather to play a card game called mahjong, and one of them, an old man named Tai Gongwang, once bought a large pile of medicines from her, mainly for the treatment of osteoporosis and hemorrhoids, which are said to be effective, and began to become popular.
People can always have all kinds of words for the things they hate, and once they accept them, they will find many reasons for them to convince themselves with peace of mind - there are indeed many youkai outside the village, but it is said that there are also gods, and the monk lady does not look like a youkai in terms of dress or personality, so it is more likely that she came here as a servant of the god or the god himself-
Although not everyone accepts this statement, it is quite marketable among young children and old people - after all, the medicine bought from her has never been fake.
......
......
The female monk put the medicine basket on the ground and told them that the medicine had just been sold out.
Did any violent incidents occur in the village in the past two days? It felt like everyone had come to buy medicine for bone-setting, knife wounds, and hemostasis, and in a short time they had all the stock in the medicine basket...... The rabbit monster Reisen was thoughtful, and felt that the next time he came, he could appropriately increase the proportion of trauma medicine.
Why do you have to sell drugs here...... Reizen couldn't help but secretly feel that Master Craftsman could go in and out of Gensokyo freely, and he didn't need these small incomes to subsidize the expenses of the Eternal Pavilion - but every time he couldn't sell enough medicine, he would still be punished by Master Craftsman...... Whenever this happens, the rabbit monster Rezusen will think of Kaguya-sama, who is at ease and trusted.
By the way, the pretense in her hand that reads "cures all diseases" is from her own handwriting, and it seems that she expects that her character will not take the initiative to talk to others, and this thing is really helpful...... Otherwise, not to mention making money, being treated as a suspicious monster wandering in the village is the most likely thing to happen to be approached by the self-police team.
Finally dealt with the last one, Reisen counted the coins sold, and if this weight was reached, he shouldn't be punished by the master craftsman, right?
As I was thinking this, I suddenly felt a burst of sweat stand on end.
With the instinct of the youkai, she sensed danger - this vicious and surging demonic aura, the identity of the other party should be a big youkai and hostile to her...... At the moment when this analysis was completed, the breath disappeared as if it had never appeared.
But Reisen was not careless, and her awakened fighting instincts made her bend and lower her hood for a wider view, her legs and nerves tense, ready to flicker.
There were no suspicious figures around...... But the bunny monster still maintains its position.
Reisen, Yuzukain, Inaba, a servant of the Eternal Pavilion, only does some miscellaneous work on weekdays, but in fact, she served in the Moon Capital a long time ago - a sacred and indisputable world, and its advanced civilization is often coveted by some young people and ignited by war, although it will soon be extinguished, but it is also at the cost of a lot of sacrifice by soldiers like her.
Many of my colleagues at the time did not understand the value of this "premonition of danger" and always treated it as an illusion...... In the end, he ended up dead. Reisen, on the other hand, relied on her instincts to fight more than the calm and rational soldiersβand when she felt danger, she immediately stayed away, even if it didn't make sense of the danger of her current situation.
Even if there is no reason, Reisen chooses to trust his instincts, thanks to his gifts, and lives to this day.
But the current situation seems to be different, the sense of danger is gone, and she is facing a different dilemma - the villagers have found the long rabbit ears above her head, moving and moving...... It doesn't look like an ornament.
Anyway, I'm leaving, and now that there are not many witnesses, there seem to be a lot of rumors about myself in the village, but if the identity of the rabbit monster is confirmed, the drug business here may be affected in the future.
Reisen put his hood back on, and reached for the medicine basket that was on the groundβonly to find a framed envelope lying on it.
Ling Xian looked around, or those people were pointing at him just now, and no new suspicious faces appeared around......
When I picked it up, the cover read, "Honorable Yakushi-sama personally opened."
...... Is it for myself?
Open and take out the letter, and turn it to the signature ...... The letter was written by a name I hadn't seen before.,In other words, it shouldn't be a famous big youkai.γ
It's suspicious...... Anyway, let's leave the village and open it again.
Thinking so, Reisen, dressed as a female monk, quickly picked up the medicine basket and trotted briskly out of the world.
......
......
At the same time, Hakurei Shrine.
On both sides of the tea table in the hall were sitting Wuyu and Hui and Mo Ming.
I have to say that it is the actual person in power in the world, and the courtesy is also generous, but Reimu doesn't seem to be very kind to this person, and runs to the room to read a book.
Mo Ming glanced at the Yin-Yang Jade placed on the cabinet next to him, and politely rejected the marriage proposal made by the Misty Rain Patriarch.
"Whether it's Zai Xia or Reimu, there are no plans to get married for the time being, the Wuyu clan is full of talents, and they will definitely be able to find a suitable son-in-law," Mo Ming smiled, "This kind of in-law with some interest is not necessarily happy, besides, if you want to talk about the stakes, in fact, there is a girl who often comes here to play with Reimu - Marisa Misato, have you ever heard of this name?"
β...... Lord Mo Ming smiled, since the adult and Ling Yan ...... There is no plan to marry the Fog and Rain family, and naturally there will be no ...... here."
When he said the word "Lingyan", the yin-yang jade on the counter suddenly rolled down for some reason, and flew in the air at an incredible angle and with a sharp and rapid momentum towards the face of the misty rain and Hui.
Mo Ming's eyes were quick, and he grabbed the yin and yang jade and put it in his pocket.
"Ah, in the past two days, I have visited the village, and I heard that there have been several incidents of fighting," Mo Ming pressed the yin and yang jade in his pocket and changed the topic with a smile, "It's not a bad thing to be determined to make a decision on the spot, but if you can plan and then act, it is actually more secure...... The patriarch was in a hurry. β
"Mr. Mo Ming doesn't know how eager we are for change......" Wuyu and Hui took a sip of tea, still palpitating at the scene just now, "If it was just me who was anxious, it would not have been possible to convince them so quickly and reach an agreement with the family...... In fact, we and other generations have been expecting change, and it is time for us to wait for it. β
"I've heard that there is a conflict between the samurai who are complaining about your practice and those who are still loyal to their masters...... It's not a big deal, but you've caused a lot of trouble for the police. β
"All losses and disasters are inevitable pains of change, and as for the self-police force, there have been negotiations and compensation measures, and in the long run, there is actually no loss on that side. β
Mo Ming shrugged: "You don't need to explain to me, it's just a cooperative relationship between me and you." β
"When I mentioned this, I have to say what I mean...... About Yokai vs. Human ......"
"I understand that youkai must survive on the 'fear' of humans, and that all changes are based on the premise that they are completely eliminated...... I'm going to mention it to the monster sage.,It's actually a fait accompli.γI'm just using this information to exchange it with you.γ β
"So, is there a specific time ......?"
"When the water is ready, I will contact you, it shouldn't take long," Mo Ming smiled and helped Wuyu and Hui add tea to their cups, "However, let's remember the things you promised beforeβabout the god of misfortune, about the name of the private school, about the name of the Boli Shrine, etc., you can start planning." β
"Needless to say, it's not such a harsh condition, since I promised Mr., there is no reason to break my word, but it's also ...... There is still some preparation to be done. β
Mo Ming nodded in understanding.
Speaking of which, the patriarch didn't pick up the topic of Marisa Kiriyu. Do you still have an impression of this name?"
There was no joy or anger on the face of the foggy rain and Hui, but there was silence for a long time.
"It involves a past incident that I don't want to mention, please forgive me," Wuyu and Hui got up and greeted the waiter who was standing and waiting outside the door, "I took the liberty to visit today, and it was getting late, so I won't bother." β
Mo Ming got up and bowed down with a smile: "Another day, I should go to the house in person to return the gift." β
