Episode 1: This is a problem that is not easy to solve
[[[cp|w:802|h:469|a:c|u:/chapters/20148/1/31633256354249304096]]]] I helplessly and sadly glanced left and right at the iron hoop that locked my wrist, the other side of the hoop was fixed in the hard rock wall, it was said that this was the hardest rock in the earth, and I couldn't break free unless I had the brute strength of the Oni Heavenly King. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Then there is no doubt that the texture of the hoop must be harder than the hardest rock, I thought.
"I'm sorry, Miss Alice," Ko Ming Jiju, who had been half-squinting at a pair of dead fish eyes since she appeared, said to me from the dungeon in her backyard, the drowsiness in her voice indicating that she was very tired, "Listen to Yakumo, you have what I need, please give it to me." ”
"So what the hell is it?"
"If you don't say, how do I know?" Miss Satoru said to me very strangely.
"If you don't say it, how do I know?" I replied with the same words.
"That's a nuisance, so please open your mind and let me check it out."
"Aren't you a natural mind-reading monster?" I was even more puzzled, "Before I came underground, I thought it was a worry-free thing to communicate with you, and I thought I didn't have to talk about it myself." ”
"But I find that I cannot read Miss Alice's heart, and I rarely encounter such a situation."
"Well, mind reading isn't everything."
"So please give up the idea of locking your heart, and let me find what I need, maybe it will be easy to find."
"But I don't know how to make you read my heart, just like I didn't know you couldn't read my heart in the first place."
"It's a nuisance."
"It's supposed to be me who is in trouble! If you look for something, you can find something, why lock me up? It's not that I disagree, but I'm ready to be read when I agree to your offer. ”
So let me go, promise not to run away, I didn't say anything after thinking about it.
"No, I'm just afraid that you won't agree," Miss Jue scratched her head, full of impatience, "Since I've done it, I'll do it to the end, and I'll apologize to you when I get what I want, sorry again." ”
Why do I have to face such prison conditions? It's a long story, so let's start this morning.
It was a sunny morning this morning, and the almost uninterrupted rain for a week washed Gensokyo away with fresh and vivid colors, and the leaves around the shrine seemed to be dark green, and the wildflowers in the forest seemed to be in full bloom, bringing me many pleasing visual treats.
This is the intuitive feeling I got after taking advantage of the rare good weather to go around the shrine a few times early in the morning.
Nearly a month and a half have passed since Remilia's second Red Mist mutation, and more than twenty days have passed since the resurrection mutation of the temporary Porly witch Alice Magtroyd, that is, me, posing as a god—the time difference between the time I spent thinking in the realm of the mind and the time I have practiced to the point where I have the ability to leave the realm—it is the beginning of July in the Jesus calendar, and July is in the middle of summer. From noon, the whole Gensokyo will enter the scorching heat stage of the long midsummer, and the cool weather that was given by the rainy days before yesterday will be gone forever.
But it just so happened that I was going to go to the underworld, a summer resort, today, and although I heard from Marisa that the underworld has a hot environment overflowing with magma, after some explanation from the flame cat, I finally concluded that Marisa is unreliable, and she has a long history of magnifying small problems to the extent that they affect the overall situation, and my impression of the underworld has also led me to believe Marisa's nonsense without much thought in the past.
The reality is that the lava-filled underground environment does exist, but it is far away from the old capital and the Earth Spirit Temple, and the general atmosphere of the entire underground should be as described by the Flame Cat, cool and dark.
But in fact, there are some other factors that lead to Marisa's unreliable description, the most direct reason is from another pet of Miss Satoru, the owner of the Earth Spirit Temple, Hell Raven Spirit Urukong, this bird was once given the function left by the disappearing god by Miss Kanako - to be precise, it should be an intuitive power - release nuclear energy, not many people are familiar with nuclear energy in Gensokyo, Pache and I can understand it as magicians, but in the eyes of Marisa, who is not learned and unskilled, there is almost no difference between the release of nuclear energy and the burning of flames- Both are exothermic and luminous.
Marisa, who often visits Koming Jiju, naturally often encounters the presence of Lingwu Lukong, and Miss Kong, who was originally just an ordinary bird, still can't freely control the power of nuclear energy release, and the radius of dozens of meters around her is a little hot, and the uncomfortable environment caused by pets makes Marisa combine the impression of visiting the old hell lava world, and form the reason why the underground world is described as extremely hot.
This time, I received a message from Miss Gu Ming Dijue, the owner of the Earth Spirit Temple, brought by the Flame Cat, and I originally felt that I was not ready, so I was going to resign, using the excuse that I was not suitable for the heat underground, but after the description of the little pet Flame Cat, I corrected my misconceptions about the underground, and then thought that going underground not only did not have to endure the heat, but it was a good way to escape the heat, so I changed my mind and agreed to go immediately.
Orange Meow went out with her to play after she conveyed her master's invitation to me, and then Suika also went out to Renli - not to go to the temple house to teach the students, at this time the temple was on summer vacation, there was no class schedule, and the reason why she went to the people was probably just to have fun, because I was leaving the shrine to go to the underworld, and the date of return was uncertain.
"You can play as long as you want, you don't have to rush back." Suika dropped the sentence and flew away.
Although the magician didn't have to care too much about the ordinary way of life, but thanks to the care of Suika, I was able to recover in just twenty days, and basically played bullet hell games.
Originally, Patchy planned to stay at the Hakurei Shrine for a while, but after I persuaded her, she didn't seem to be able to pull the magic and returned to the Red Devil Pavilion, and then I spent some time persuading Miss Sakiya sent by Patchy to return to the Red Devil Pavilion, and as a result, there were still the ghost king Cuika and the little black cat Orange Meow who lived with me, and I had no reason to drive people away, because they were permanent residents of the Hakurei Shrine, so I accepted Cuixiang's care with guilt - Orange Meow is still a child, so I don't need to expect her to make contributions, not to mention that I don't really need to take care of it, Although the body of the magician is unusually weak after being reactivated, it will recover naturally over time, and is not as fragile as humans.
During this time, Patsy and Sakuya, Sanae, Miss Sakura, Huiyin-sensei, Miss Meihong, and even Mitsuki-sei and others visited the shrine to visit me, a temporary shrine maiden who volunteered to be hired, but I never saw the most likely Yakumo Murasaki coming, I couldn't guess what she was doing, and she asked Orange Meow to nothing, and she tearfully claimed that she hadn't seen Ran-sama for a long time - but I was asking Murasaki-sama.
I think Purple must have seen everything that happened, and the reason why she didn't show up at Hakurei Shrine might be because she was busy with other things - such as her own corresponding practice adjustments after the change in Gensokyo's atmosphere, but it can't be ruled out that she was embarrassed to show up, because the shrine maiden who was supposed to be protected by her was openly killed, which is very embarrassing.
It doesn't matter if she's embarrassed, I almost lost my life, no, I really lost my life, but after a series of accidents or fateful arrangements, I got my life back, but this can't offset the impact of her mistakes, and another major factor that contributed to the success of Remilia's operation was actually Kanako Yasaka, but no one knew what she did, and it was with her help that the temporary Hakurei witch returned to her original position.
I thought about it and overturned my own view that Yakumo didn't dare to show up because of shame, because my killing of Reimu in the first place could also be seen as a major mistake by Yakumo Murasaki - at least in the eyes of unreasonable people or demons, but she didn't show any shame to show regret for Reimu's death, although Reimu didn't die.
In fact, to die or not to die, as the princess of the moon Kaguya said, it is a matter of perspective, the whirlpool of rotation has kept life alive since ancient times, and as long as it is not specifically destroyed, there is no death in this world.
Let's talk about the people who visited, Patsy and Sakiya don't need to go into details, and the visits of Sanae, Shengbailian, Huiyin and Meihong are also expected, after all, they are all people who often have some contacts, which shows that I am not going to die of loneliness.
To my surprise, the three goblins of March Spirit's condolences were of course not bringing a large number of visitors and a lot of money, and their efforts to gather visitors were unsuccessful, and I guess they must have failed early and gave up so they turned around and refused to report to me, but even then I could think of condolences to the shrine maiden, and I was glad that I didn't care about their failures.
Then there's the fairy neighbor of Moriya Shrine, Miss Ibaraki Kaho, who takes her leave as soon as she cares about the Hakurei shrine maiden.
It is also necessary to say that Shotimaru Fumichi uncharacteristically did not come to the shrine for an interview, but instead came to Himetang Yutachi, and she did not ask me any inside information about the series of events, but only gave me a very ordinary greeting.
Last but not least, my surprise was Miss Reisen, a moon rabbit girl whom I had saved once, who had come to visit me again many years later, though no longer in my own bungalow. She brought some common or uncommon medicines, and conveyed the greetings of Dr. Yongrin and Princess Kaguya, and then seemed to want to say something but didn't say anything, so I had to respond casually to a few polite words, in fact, I still felt a little sorry in my heart.
I think I should get back to business.,The serious thing is,I got up early in the morning and walked around the shrine.,After returning to the shrine.,Welcome a two-tailed cat in a green dress.,Orange Meow's friend of the same kind Flame Cat.,Her serious business should be to play with Orange Meow.,Incidentally, it brought me an invitation message from Miss Komei Jiju.。
Flame Cat's original words were: "Satoru-sama seems to be in a hurry, please Miss Alice as quickly as possible, don't worry, Ah Sora has been sent to the Scorching Hell to do daily maintenance work, so our house is not very hot Meow." ”
The so-called Jue is very anxious, I guess it's the speculation of the pet cat, if it's really urgent, it won't casually let the pet cat send me the invitation message in the form of playing with friends. If it weren't for the fact that I've been bored lately, and I have the summer to escape, I really don't plan to go underground right away, a world I haven't set foot in yet.
I remembered that I hadn't set foot in the Underworld in the slightest, at least I had the remote control puppet follow Marisa through the Old Capital and the Spiritual Temple, and I had a good idea of what kind of people were in the Underworld, and I wasn't completely blind.
ps: Then, it's a week off, and by the way, I conceived the original story of the new pit with no shadow at all, and I can't continue to be decadent!
