Chapter 6: In the World
Lost in the bamboo forest, Yuelin followed Fujiwara Meihong's side, and along the way, the atmosphere was a little subtle and awkward. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
Compared with the otherworldly calm of Yonglin and others, the aura emanating from Fujiwara Meihong's body is more like the indifference of the living.
For the former, Yuelin instinctively has awe, but the latter is obviously a lot better, perhaps because after being isolated from the world for too long, he has created a character that is not good at getting along with others.
"Did she ever tell you about eternal life?" Fujiwara Meihong suddenly said coldly.
"Mention it a little, though not very detailed."
"Sure enough..." Fujiwara Mei blushed with a look of reminiscence, as if responding to Yuelin, and seemed to sigh: "Although I don't know what she wants to do, I am sure that she has a plan." Your eyes tell me that you seem to have some interest in eternal life, could it be that the woman is planning to use eternal life to lure you into staying in the Eternal Pavilion? ”
"This..." After Fujiwara Meihong mentioned this, Yuelin felt more and more that there was this possibility.
"That woman is not a kind person with a benevolent heart, on the contrary, ordinary people are just a scenery for all living beings for them, in other words, will you care about the death and life of the bamboo trees in this bamboo forest and water them?" As she spoke, Fujiwara Meihong carefully looked at Yuelin up and down.
"I can't see anything strange about you at all, that woman can't be blind."
"I am indeed just an ordinary person, and I can swear that I can vouch for this with the experience of the past 20 years. Anyway, if it weren't for Mei Hong's help, I wouldn't know how to go to the world. ”
"It's just a gesture, besides, it's not all for you, but also some of my own factors, the fetters of being a human being, and with the passage of time, one by one died in the long river of history. It is just a self-deception to reach out to humanity and retain the consciousness of being a human being. Fujiwara Meihong's voice was a little low, and the atmosphere of this bamboo forest path was unconsciously filled with sadness.
"It's really... It's ridiculous, can an existence like me still be called a human? ”
“···” Silence, this is the only response Yuelin can give, in front of Mei Hong, any words of comfort are pale and powerless, I have not experienced this helplessness of being abandoned by the world, how can I be qualified to say such ridiculous words as "I can understand you", it will only make people feel sarcastic.
···
After walking in the lost bamboo forest for a morning, I don't know how Fujiwara Meihong recognized the direction, in Yuelin's eyes, almost thought that it was a confusion that went around in circles, but finally walked out.
In the world, this township that exudes the familiar atmosphere of Yuelin's memory is called the gathering place of human beings, and when he stepped on this land, Yuelin's hanging heart finally relaxed.
This township is located in a strange place infested with monsters, and its civilization seems to be only at the level of the sixties and seventies of the last century, and only simple electrical appliances can be seen on the side of the street, and there are many people on the street... There should be no problem with youkai setting up a stall.
In any case, there is an unexpected sense of prosperity in the township here, not like the depression and ruin that Yuelin imagined to be oppressed by the monsters.
"Speaking of which, what are you good at, you should know the rules of human beings, money has to be exchanged for labor." Fujiwara Mei blushed and said.
The ability to be good at, Yuelin almost blurted out when he heard this: "I am a preparatory master's student at S University in A City, Huaguo." ”
This is Yuelin's proudest pride before he came to Gensokyo, and whenever someone asks him this, he can answer without hesitation.
As an orphan, since he was a child, he only relied on a few subsidies from the government, won scholarships with excellent grades along the way, and was finally admitted to a major university, and was about to obtain a master's degree.
Yuelin has always believed that if life is a play, then the script in his hand must be a scum script that is extremely rotten, Yuelin used it for 20 years, and finally rewrote this scum script, and when he was about to start the plot of the winner in life, the director suddenly told him, sorry, your script is wrong, repeat it, just like that, a fluttering sentence, straightforwardly negating Yuelin's efforts in the past 20 years.
Yuelin really wanted to roar into the sky [********* master's student? What's that? Fujiwara Meihong's eyes widened, and she couldn't understand the inexplicable words in Yuelin's mouth.
"All in all, it's a great read." Only then did Yuelin react, this is no longer the original world.
"Reading is amazing... If that's the case, there might be a job for you, and it just so happens that Huiyin is having a headache because the temple house is too busy. Fujiwara Meihong's face unconsciously showed a hint of softness, and at this moment, she had a subtle girl's breath on her body.
"What kind of place is Terakoya?"
"Where he teaches, Huiyin is the teacher of the temple house, and speaking of which, Huiyin can't be regarded as a complete human being, and his half body is Bai Ze, who devours and records history. But don't worry, Huiyin likes humans very much, and I can vouch for this with my life. Well... If you can kill me. Fujiwara Meihong's mood seems to be very good, and she rarely makes jokes.
The temple house is a more obvious place in the world... Next to it, well, Yuelin looked at the rather gorgeous mansion in front of him, and then silently followed Mei Hong to the side, compared with the former, this room is not worth mentioning, but compared to the general shop, it is obviously much better, and above the door hangs a square handwriting written by the three words "Temple House".
"Huiyin, I'm here... Oops~" Sister Hong said as she pushed the door generously, but as soon as she stepped in, Yuelin saw a virtuous woman slamming down towards her sister's head.
"Meihong, how many times have I told you to knock on the door before coming in." The girl named Kamihakuzawa Huiyin, the first time she saw her, she felt a knowledgeable and intelligent aura.
"Hey... It's..." Shang Bai Ze Huiyin saw an unfamiliar face outside the door, and couldn't help but be stunned, known as Bai Ze, who is half a record of history, because of his ability, she has seen the people in the entire Gensokyo before.
"It's an outsider.,It's said to be a master's student.,Although I don't know what it is.,But it seems that he only has the ability to read.,I'm wondering if he's qualified for the job of a teacher at the temple.,It just so happens that the temple.,It's just a teacher for you.,One more person.,You'll be able to have free time.。 Mei Hong explained.
"Master's students? What is the field? Huiyin asked.
"Studying in the field of mathematics and physics, although I am ready, but I am already sure that I am nine out of ten." Yuelin was a little respectful and replied seriously.
"There's no need to be so nervous, in fact, the teachers at Terakoya are not very demanding, they just teach some basic knowledge, and in the field of mathematics and science, it is really not what I am good at. However, new courses are added... Then I won't have fewer classes. "Shang Bai Ze Huiyin is a little entangled.
"Well, anyway, your course is said to be too boring by the villagers' children, and if the class is reduced, it will be too late for them to be happy... Pain~" Before Fujiwara Meihong's words could be finished, Kamishirasawa Huiyin had already hit her head-on head, forcibly stopping what Meihong was going to say next.
All in all, after some thought, Shangbai Zehuiyin finally decided to apply for Yuelin.
"Mr. Yue, I'll trouble you in the next few days, although the salary is not much, but the work of teaching children can't be sloppy, this is the obligation of being a teacher!" Kamibai Ze Huiyin said earnestly.
