Chapter 47: A Rainstorm That Extinguishes Hope

Thunder drums and rain waterfalls, clouds fall and tide roar. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

---——————————————————

The puppets are stretched to the limit, dancing like thunder and standing still like ice sculptures.

Their hands and elbows crossed in front of their chests, strange gestures on either side of their heads, and the legs of their lower bodies stretched out like spiders.

It's a stretch that twists to the extreme.

All who watched couldn't help but stand up, their souls vibrated and they felt some kind of enthusiasm, they couldn't help but tremble, and then, they could no longer control their expressions.

People hunched their backs like young shrimps, leaned their backs like willow branches, and then, in unison, trembled in the joyful wind, which was uncontrollable, laughing like an addiction.

"Haha......" "I'm grass...... Hahahaha...... "Hey, hey, hey, hey......" "You...... You...... Giggle ......"

But that's not all! The next moment is the high * tide! Even Zhibei himself laughed until his stomach hurt again!

"Knock knock!" The rhythmic taiko drum sound is getting faster and faster.

Moe crossed her hands over her chest, then leaned back sharply, and at the same time, the three puppets spread their hands to both sides, leaning back violently as if embracing the world, until the upper body was parallel to the ground, and then began to shake their waists and legs non-stop.

"WRYYYYYYYYYYYYYY......" An extremely high-pitched and shrill laugh rang out from nowhere.

This is exactly the ninety-degree tilt of DIO's profession.

Zhibei raised his hand in surrender, holding his stomach, he felt that he couldn't do it.

…… It's so ghostly! Thinking like this, Zhibei wanted to see Kaguya's reaction.

But when he turned around, he felt a basin of cold water hit his headβ€”because Kaguya still didn't smile. No...... It can't be said that she didn't smile, the fair skin at the corners of her eyes wrinkled slightly, and her eyes were bent into crescents, full of smiles, which showed that this performance was effective. However, Kaguya wanted to laugh wildly, but Kaguya's mouth still turned into a cold straight line as if it wasn't his own.

This certainly can't be considered a laugh, at least not a complete laugh, because the mission does not admit it.

Even if it's an ultimate, it still doesn't work! Zhibei sighed heavily in his heart, it seemed that he had to solve the eternal puzzle.

"WRYYYYYYYY......" Zhibei's ears suddenly sounded a chaotic, roaring strange laugh, he looked around in astonishment, and suddenly felt that he had released a devil.

I saw that the villagers were laughing wildly, learning the puppets on the stage to lean back ninety degrees, this posture was 10,000 times more terrible than the most terrible zombie virus, and it instantly infected everyone, it blew into the hearts of everyone present like a violent wind, setting off a wanton madness.

Not to mention, it's spectacular!

Although he tried his best to be optimistic, listening to the incessant strange laughter, Zhibei couldn't help but cover his face with his hands.

This is called stealing chickens and rice......

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€” dividing line where the highlight of the festival arrivesβ€”β€”β€”β€”

After being brainwashed by that strange posture, the villagers became much happier, and it seemed that the sadness hidden in their hearts seemed to be expressed.

Well...... It's a good result, isn't it!! Zhibei knows that the cave demon incident has hurt this village too deeply, so it is also a good result to be able to vent the depression in everyone's hearts!

After a few more shows, Shirasui stood on the stage again, holding an arm-thick stick in his left hand, with a red cloth tied to the top. Hehe laughed a few times, and Izo said loudly: "Everyone, the singing and dancing are over, but we still have one last performance, which will always be the favorite of the gods, the last sacrifice, and the last competition, are you ready?" The men of Shirakawa Village! ”

"Oooh!! Oh!!! "Ready!!

Hearing the villagers' response, Izo waved his hand and shouted, "Bring it up!" ”

Nine men carried a rudimentary tower made of bamboo to the stage, and they straightened the top of the tower with ropes, erected the entire tower, and tied the ropes to the chisels that had been made long ago, and held the bamboo tower in place.

Zhibei only then found that this bamboo tower is quite high, about more than ten meters, at the top of the bamboo tower, there is a big firewood pile, and the branches cross into a complex and rough shape.

What kind of athletic is this? Zhibei was puzzled in his heart, he also got a little wind from Izuza yesterday, but no matter how he asked for the details, all he got was a mysterious smile, but the mystery will be revealed today.

"Please go to Lord Bodhi and receive a torch!" Jing Zao said passionately, "As for the people of Zhibei, please watch it on stage as a guest!" You can immediately understand what a bloody performance this final sacrifice was, and this is not my wishful thinking, but the cruelty, truthfulness, and unyielding confidence that it brings us. ”

Torch? Could it be the Olympics? No, no...... Of course, this is just a brain-opener, what Zhibei is puzzled about is actually the appearance of the Holy Bodhi, this is a Shinto festival, no matter how you think about it, the monks should not appear here! Aren't Buddhism and Shintoism mutually reinforcing?

It's a pity that Zhibei was not given a chance to complain loudly, and the men around him had already stood up one by one.

"Haha! That's right, this time, I must take the first place! Sitting next to Zhibei was an old man with white hair but still a strong body, his name was Kentaro Watanabe. At this moment, he stood up abruptly and shouted with pride, "You soft eggs, come and see my backbone of the old guy!" I'm going to decide this first place! ”

"you, you're thinking too much! Kentaro, you lost to me thirty years ago, and now you're so embarrassed! This blatant mockery of course ushered in a counterattack, and an old man playing with a paper fan laughed loudly, provoking a good-natured laugh.

"Look at it!" Kentaro Watanabe rolled up his sleeves and walked to the front of the holy Bodhi, he first bowed, then took the wooden stick from the hand of the holy Bodhi, soaked the end tied with the cloth in the wine vat on the side, and then handed it to the holy Bodhi.

The holy Bodhi smiled and flicked the void, his pure mana gushed out, and then, in the drizzle, an orange flame rose, and it swayed in the air, like a shy girl, gently tearing open the rain curtain, showing its youthful vitality.

Zhibei was a little speechless, is such a high monk as Holy Bodhi here to be a lighter for everyone now?

"Mr. Izukuri, I don't really want to watch the fight! Can I participate in this contest? Seeing that the people around him walked towards the holy Bodhi, Zhibei asked loudly to the well on the platform. In any case, this multi-step opening attracted Zhibei's interest, and he also wanted to experience the unique style of this Shirakawa Village, maybe it would be an epiphany to solve the puzzle?

"This ...... The adult ...... "Izo had some hesitation, he knew that Zhibei was an onmyoji, and let such a person with great power participate in the competition of ordinary people...... It's hard to imagine that.

"Don't worry, Mr. Izzo, I won't use more power than ordinary people, and certainly won't let Shikigami help...... Just let me participate! How can I say that I am also a member of the village now......" Zhibei quickly understood the difficulty of Izo and pleaded.

"Alright! My lord, since you want to participate, let me explain the rules of the contest to you! "From here, you need to run around the village, and then come back here, climb to the top of the bamboo building, and light the sacrificial fire." Well, you don't need to worry about not being able to light it, the firewood is soaked in wine, and the Holy Bodhi Lord will also use the Holy Power as an aid. Naturally, whoever lights the flame first in the end will be the winner of this competition, and that's basically it, my lord. ”

"I see!" Zhibei nodded knowingly, "I know!" He motioned for Moe to take care of Kaguya, and then walked towards Santa Bodhina, halfway through, he turned back to Kaguya and Moe who were staring at him with a confident smile, and said, "Moe, Kaguya, wait for me to return victorious!" ”

Soon, the people in front of them all raised the torches one by one, and it was Zhibei's turn next.

"Come on! Walker! Saint Bodhi smiled and encouraged Zhibei.

"Ahh I will! Zhibei pulled out the wooden stick from the wine and handed it to the holy Bodhi.

The sleeves of the holy Bodhi slammed over, and a little flame rose.

However, before the freshly formed flame could begin to dance, it disappeared at the top of the stick with a "poof" sound.

All that remained was a few wisps of green smoke.

After being stunned for a long time, Zhibei realized the coolness that penetrated his heart.

When I looked up, thick dark clouds gathered in the sky.

Accompanied by a deep blue flash, there was an incessant roar.

No longer a soft light dot,

On this day, it was a sudden rainstorm.

"Haha! It's so exciting! ”

In the rain curtain that blurs everything,

I don't know who yelled.
