Strike 8 No money time
"I can't stand it anymore. The girl stared at the bamboo shoots in the bowl.
"......," Isara nodded cautiously.
"I don't want to eat this anymore, do I?" the girl poked at the bamboo shoots in the bowl.
"......" Ishara nodded again, expecting the girl's next words.
"The vegetables in the yard won't mature until two or three months, so before that, can we still eat this? The girl took out the money bag given by Mei Hong from her arms.
There was only one copper coin left inside, lying lonely in the dark.
"It's too unplanned to use the money...... the girl sighed.
… It's a memory...
On the first day, she took Isara to the street to eat a bowl of noodles, and although it was just a bowl of soba noodles in clear soup, the two of them still felt like heaven.
The next day, she took Isara to eat rice balls, although it was just ordinary kelp + rice, but I don't know why, but I have an indescribable feeling and I am very happy.
On the third day, udon ...... It was a different kind of happiness, but there was no money left to order two bowls, so they could only eat one bowl for two people, and Isara always sucked a whole noodle into her mouth quickly with a blank face, her cheeks puffed up and she chewed slowly like a hamster.
I don't know why, the girl can't eat it. So most of it was left to Isara to solve.
On the fourth day, the money was almost at the bottom, and I could only afford to buy condiments. Bought two green onions and that's the food for today. The green onions are so spicy, Isara choked and cried, it feels so novel haha.
On the fifth day, I bought a bag of salt, and only the last copper plate remained, and the rest of the days may only be spent on this.
Day 6...... Day 7...... On the eighth day, the salt bottomed out (how fast you eat!), Ishara was also hungry, and the girl relied on her strong physical fitness to hold on.
But, I still don't want to eat bamboo shoots......
On the ninth day, the girl stared at Isara, who was not moving much, and suddenly had an idea.
(I didn't notice it because Isara had been carrying it, but it had always been two people who acted, and the expenses were also two people, so if it wasn't for Isara, wouldn't I... )
Isara tilted her head when she looked up and saw the girl staring at her.
Approaching the girl, because she was already hungry and had no strength, she could only crawl, and stuck to the girl's side, Isara felt a little relieved.
"It's so cold...... clings to the girl, and she hasn't eaten food for a long time, and it seems that she has begun to run out of calories.
The "......" girl takes Isara into her arms and warms Isara's body with her body heat.
Soon Isara fell asleep in this comfortable embrace.
(What the hell was I thinking...... )
The girl covered her face and looked at Ishara in her arms speechless.
Day 10
(I must have been mentally disturbed yesterday.) )
The girl shook her head, got up, and made a decision.
Then she thought about the bamboo forest and walked away, and when she came back, she held a lot of bamboo shoots in her hands.
In order to live a well-off life, fight for your life!
The girl who walked out of the kitchen carried a large pot of bamboo shoot soup in her hand.
… But anyway, you have to eat first...
"Isara, go hunting. ”
Isara, who had recovered slightly, looked at the girl who came inexplicably and tilted her head.
"I want to eat meat. The girl said with a serious face, "You want to eat it too, don't you?" ”
Isara nodded sharply.
"The money is gone. The girl pointed to the empty bag in her hand, "Anything you want to buy costs money." ”
"......," Isara looked at the girl expectantly.
"Then you can only live a hunting life like you did three years ago. The girl pondered for a moment, and said, "I don't know why the animals here have avoided me when they see me, and they can't improve their food now." (All scared)
"Then let's go hunting for that Mt. Fuji. The girl pointed to the high mountain that was not far away, and it was Mt. Fuji.
Isara clenched her little fists, as if she was very scrappy.
"Let's go!"
… If you don't have any money, why don't you look for a job?...
At the same time, because there are youkai in the mountains behind the town, after receiving an order from Emperor Tenchi, a crusade team sent by the family to fight against youkai found traces of huge creatures on Mt. Fuji.
"Hey, Wuzuo, did you guys lead the wrong way? "A young girl dressed in a shrine maiden costume slapped the leading boy with a long wooden stick in her hand, which was connected with ornaments like white paper.
"I'm the most familiar with this area, so I can't take it wrong. Also, put down the banner (imperial coin?) in your hand for me. The boy who was called Wuzuo looked at the girl helplessly.
"Ahaha, you guys have a good relationship. "It was the leader of this team who spoke, Abe Oriya.
Although the Abe family in this era is not the onmyoji family that was hot because of Abe's sunny in the Heian era. But in the mud bombardment country, the current Abe family is also one of the top human forces. The other two forces are respectively the flower opening courtyard family, the westward temple family,
And Abe Oriya is the senior onmyoji sent by Abe's family to take the lead.
The girl dressed as a shrine maiden is a wind blessing (has nothing to do with Dongfeng Valley), named Himenomiya Reiko.
The leader led the way was a wild road that grew up in this mountain village and somehow learned the secret method of the onmyoji, named Yamakawa Wusaku.
"Where's the feeling!" ×2
"Don't learn from me, you guy!" ×2
"You're still learning!" ×2
"Aha, isn't it really a good relationship. Abe also laughed out loud, and he was about to burst into tears.
"Tsk, these two little imps...... (whispering)"
The owner of the voice above is also one of the members of this team, named Daisuke Majima. Born from a famous Onmyoji, he has received a superior education since he was a child, and looks down on those wild Onmyoji and ordinary civilians, believing that only those who stand at the same height as him are qualified to talk to him. However, he hides these inner disdains very well.
"Amitabha Buddha ......" is constantly chanting, and the person standing next to Daisuke Majima is a monk from Todaiji Temple, and the Dharma name is needless to say.
In addition to these five, several people dressed as samurai followed behind.
Why is this team so mixed? This starts with the three major yin and yang families.
Although the three major families are counterbalanced with the monsters that can fight the mud bombardment in the country, the lifespan and number of monsters completely suppress the three major families. In order to prevent no successor, the three families secretly jointly formulated a plan.
Project Exorcision.
The people who cure the monsters are no longer limited to those with spiritual powers, such as onmyoji, monks, and shrine maidens.
As long as you have the strength and courage to fight against youkai, you can become a professional exorcist.
If you are born with divine powers, you are an ordinary person but you can fight off monsters, then you can become an exorcist.
If you are a samurai, skilled in swordsmanship, and able to fight off youkai in the flesh, you can also become an exorcist.
The three families have been planting secret posts in many towns, and if they find someone with different powers, they will immediately report it to a specialized organization. Then use items like money as a temptation to absorb them into the organization.
However, everything is good and bad, and the rank of the exorcist is also divided into five classes.
First-class exorcists, with the ability to directly fight against big monsters, this kind of human beings will be classified as first-class exorcists, and exorcists of this level are very rare, and the leaders of the three major families are at this level.
Second-class exorcists, who have multifaceted striking abilities and can harass big monsters or defeat monsters, will be classified as second-class exorcists, and the number is not very large, and there is a world of difference between them and first-class exorcists in terms of strength.
Third-class exorcists, who have a relatively single ability and can cure monsters, will be divided into third-class exorcists.
Fourth-class exorcists, people who can temporarily fight against youkai, will be assigned to fourth-class exorcists.
A fifth-class exorcist, who has no spiritual power, no skills, or even no specialty, and only has a heart that hopes to exorcise demons, will be assigned to a fifth-class exorcist, which is basically equivalent to a miscellaneous soldier.
You can only step on the bones of your companions and monsters and slowly ascend to the top, this is the cruel world of exorcism.
But it is precisely because of this exorcist plan that humans will no longer be afraid of youkai and begin to rebel against youkai.
In this way, he defeated the monsters and repelled all the demons into the Hakurei Great Barrier, thus starting a new era of civil war.
That's why the team is made up of several people from different professions.
"Wait. Yamakawa Wusaku stopped, turned around and signaled, and everyone stopped.
"This is a footprint...... "The young man was half-kneeling on the ground, his hand caressing the sunken ground.
"Did you find anything?" asked Abe, who stepped forward.
“…… Probably," I replied word by word, frowning, "earth spider." ”
Hearing the three words in my mouth, Abe's face became extremely solemn.
Ps: Wusaku and Himenomiya Lingzi are ranked as third-class exorcists, and Ori is also a second-class exorcist, and Mo Yan and Daisuke are also second-class exorcists, but they are also much weaker than Oriko, and the samurai are fourth-class and fifth-class exorcists.
Ps2: The exorcist or something is my mouth, and when I write it, I feel that the second middle school has a strong atmosphere, and I have stopped several times to cover my face and be shy!
Ps3: Popular Science: The soil spider is a very large spider that often haunts the mountains. It has a ferocious nature, and often binds people it sees with spider silk and takes them back to cave dwellings to eat. Its eight legs, fangs, bristles, etc. are all sharp weapons that hurt people. (Those who have played Rocky Heroes may have a little feeling for the appearance of this monster)
Ps4: Eating too much salt will raise blood pressure and raise plasma cholesterol, which will lead to stomach cancer and will be prone to colds, well, and osteoporosis. So don't eat a packet of salt in three days like the girl and Isara (who can eat it).
