Nozawa is stuck.

"What do you say?!"

"Say ......"

Nozawa only felt a dry mouth, and a little sweat oozed from the tip of his nose. Since Yaeji drilled the well, although the livestock and fields are still in a state of water shortage and drought, people are at least guaranteed.

He had drunk a large bowl of water before he came, but now he felt like he had a soldering iron in his throat, and he was itching unbearably, but he couldn't do anything else.

Sitting across from him, there seemed to be ghosts hovering over the small figure, Nozawa's eyes were astringent, and the nerves that implicated his pupils were bloodshot one after another, and it looked like he had stayed up for several nights.

The goblin was smiling at him, and the laughter was shrill and piercing......

"Nozawa!"

"Huh?!" Nozawa was startled, a cold sweat broke out on his back, and his pupils contracted suddenly.

Looking at it, it was just a handsome boy with some might sitting opposite him, and all the ghost banshees that had been hovering above had disappeared.

"Lord Ji."

Nozawa bowed his head, his voice trembling slightly.

"Tell me everything they say." Yaeji is impatient.

"Gollum~"

Swallowing another mouthful of saliva from his parched mouth, Nozawa said, "They say that if you want to solve the problem of youkai and drought, you need to sacrifice. ”

"Go on." Yae Ji narrowed his eyes, Nozawa was like this, it didn't look like he was just going to make a sacrifice problem.

He ...... They also say that because Ryo, who was sacrificed to the great god last time, was not a pure daughter, the god must have been angry with the village. And then...... Lord Ji, you have stolen the authority of the gods, dug wells in the village without permission, and put the wealth of the gods in the hands of everyone, and the gods are bound to be even more angry. So he dispatched monsters to hunt down the villagers around the village, killing the lives of the village one by one, and plunging Yae Village into despair. ”

"And the sacrifice they want is not an ordinary sacrifice. It is rumored that a few decades ago, when there was a problem with a sacrifice, the gods were furious, and that time it was the blood of the shrine shrine maiden that the gods were able to appease their anger. ”

"So ......"

Yae Ji squinted, and Nozawa didn't dare to speak. He thought that Lord Ji would be furious and scold those fools fiercely, and he was ready to be used as a punching bag by Lord Ji.

But the quiet Yae Ji seemed to be brewing a storm, and Nozawa remembered the ghost banshee he had seen before, and his body trembled again.

"So they're going to sacrifice Sakura or Rin to the fox god? To ask the fox god for forgiveness? Forgive them for their sins? ”

"Stupid! It's stupid! It's hopeless! Want to blame the failure of the last sacrifice on a little girl who has nothing to do with you? Wouldn't this also be able to offset the 'sins' of the next Yae Divine Lord? ”

Nozawa didn't dare to answer.

It was as if there was a force that pushed the anger in Yaeji's heart to burn.

"They do want to be washed away from their sins." Nozawa replied cautiously, "As they said, those who were killed by the youkai were all people who had drunk well water. ”

"Heh~ You now find me someone in the village who hasn't drunk well water!"

Nozawa was silent.

Yae Ji's face is cloudy, go to his father for this matter? For the sake of the village's urine, his father will definitely obey the "will of the people" and sacrifice the weak constitution and useless "waste" Rin to the gods.

Yae Ji was quiet, trying not to get carried away by the anger.

He learned from the knowledge of another world that when emotions fluctuate violently, it is best not to make decisions easily.

"All these things are passed on by the handyman?"

"Everyone believes in the things that have been passed around and around, and it is certain that the kid is one of the sources."

"Didn't my mother-in-law's family stop it at all?"

Nozawa was stunned for a moment, and replied truthfully: "No, but this thing can't be stopped, right?" ”

"Can't stop it?" Yaju Ji sneered: "I'm afraid that the old ghost wants to find an excuse for what he committed and wants to divert his attention, right?" Dare to make small gestures under the sacrifice to deceive the gods, I think it's good for that old thing to serve the gods. ”

"Hurry up and dig wells, and when the water resources are sufficient, enough for livestock and fields, sweep the low-level monsters surrounding the village, and those people won't say anything."

Hearing Yaeji's words, Nozawa looked embarrassed, "Can ...... Now some villagers don't dare to come to the well to fetch water, and they only gather together all day long to make noise and want to hold sacrifices. ”

Yae Ji frowned: "Hire more people and try to speed it up." ”

Nozawa still had a wry smile on his face: "Lord Ji, these days, from time to time those low-level monsters harass the village, the patrol team is divided into several teams to run, digging wells in the early morning, patrolling in the morning and afternoon, and digging wells again in the evening, everyone can't bear it." And you know, since the news got out, no one has been willing to come and help us dig a well. ”

"What about the great ones who know about the sacrifice?"

"They don't want to take risks lightly, and you don't know about those old guys, they don't like to do risky things. If there is not enough interest, they prefer to hold another sacrifice and sacrifice the blood of the shrine maiden to the gods. After all...... The gods love the pure daughter of the shrine maiden blood the most. ”

Seeing Yaeji's face cloudy, Nozawa also figured out the stakes back and forth in his heart.

"My lord, there is only one way to make those villagers believe in you."

"Oh?" A glimmer of brilliance flashed in Yaeji's eyes, he didn't think of any good methods for him who often swam in the "other world", but Nozawa with a simple face, and he had a lot of ideas in his stomach.

"Tell me about it."

"My lord, it's actually very simple."

"Simple?"

"Yes!" Nozawa said seriously: "As long as you disclose your true identity, you can do it." ”

Yae Ji was slightly stunned, his true identity? Isn't it the next generation of Yae Divine Lords? This is a well-known thing in the village.

Seeing Yae Ji stunned, Nozawa thought that he had moved the other party, and hit the railroad while it was hot: "Appearing as this generation of shrine shrine maidens, the villagers naturally believe that Ji-sama can communicate with the gods, and the matter of the monsters outside the village is just an accident." ”

"Shrine shrine maiden ......" Yae Ji's expression changed on her face, and she thought a lot for a moment.

Nozawa's idea was very ranciful, but it was also very accurate, and he got straight to the point.

If he appeared as a shrine maiden, the villagers would have supported the well digging work, because the shrine maiden was said to be able to communicate with the gods.

Since you can communicate with the gods, then everything is not a problem, and any stealing the authority of the gods and squandering the wealth of the gods is all acquiesced by the gods.

Youkai can also be handled well as an accident, and he can even use the shrine shrine maiden identity to give the old woman a "crime of deceiving the gods!" ”

All of these problems seem to be solvable.

It's later...... It's impossible for Sakura to meet everyone as a shrine shrine maiden, could it be that Yae Shrine wants to announce that Sakura is actually not the second daughter of the Yae family, but the second son?

To be honest, Yae Ji was moved by this bad idea.
