Chapter 14: The Well
"This is how the next generation of Yae God Lords should be." The old woman's hoarse voice came, and the little boy did not know how to answer.
"Hiyoshi Maru?"
"Yes, mother-in-law."
"When Xiao Ji was playing with you before, did he behave abnormally?"
"He? Xiao Ji likes to take Sakura to play together, and he has to take into account the feelings of girls in everything, but I think that sometimes his mother-in-law and mother are not manly at all. The little boy named Hiyoshimaru glanced up at the old woman and said, "But the uncles of the patrol team all praise the bravery of Lord Ji, and many of our friends are not convinced by him. ”
"Heh~"
The old woman smiled lightly, clapped her hands, and immediately walked in outside, a middle-aged woman holding a more complicated laundry in her hand.
"Put it on my dear Hiyoshimaru." The old woman ordered.
It didn't take long for a costume similar to a shrine shrine maiden costume to be put on Hiyoshimaru.
Hiyoshimaru had a confused expression on his face, and from time to time he pulled his skirt with his fingers, and the expression on his face gradually changed from bewilderment to shame.
The little face was red, and Hiyoshimaru gritted his teeth: "Mother...... Mother-in-law, you ......"
"You are not allowed to tell anyone about this matter, come to me every day in the future, and I will train you myself. And hair, don't cut it anymore, keep it long in the future. ”
Hiyoshimaru lowered his head, his little hands pinching the hem of his legs, at his age, he already knew what shame was. If he let his group of friends see this outfit, wouldn't he have to be laughed to death?
But in the family, the mother-in-law's words are supreme, and no one dares to disobey the mother-in-law's words. Even if it is a rather dignified father on weekdays, he doesn't dare to have a trace of style in front of his mother-in-law.
"Yes~"
"Take my dear Hiyoshimaru down, and I'll find a time to bring him here every day in the future."
The middle-aged woman and Hiyoshimaru saluted the old woman, and then walked out of the room.
The old woman sitting on the wooden chair was still tapping on the armrest, her cloudy eyes narrowed.
"Proficient in using [Falling Sakura Slash]? Heh, Yae's generation is actually a girl, right? The Lord of the Eight Gods usually does not show the dew...... Will he give me a hint again this time? is bright and let Yae Ji perform the sixth stage of the falling cherry slash, which can indirectly confirm the fact that Yae Ji is a girl. ”
"Do you want her to continue to sit in the position of the Yae Shinju? Then I will follow your wish and let Hiyoshimaru become a little girl and unite with the next generation of Yae Shinjo to become a husband and wife! ”
"Yae, I've watched you grow up since childhood, how can I not know your hint? It's just that the other old guys in the village are a little troublesome, and when the time comes, ......"
Yae Shrine.
"Ah...... Sneeze! ”
The Yae God Lord, who was sitting cross-legged on the wooden board, looked into the distance and touched his nose again, "It's weird, I can catch a cold this day?" ”
......
Yae Ji rolled over, his little hands around his neck, trying to scratch the itchy spot on his back shoulder.
In the big drought, let alone taking a bath, I couldn't even afford to drink water immediately. The villagers discussed the last sacrifice more than once, and also reasoned with the old woman, but in the end they had to give up.
Yaeji, who couldn't sleep, rolled over again, and a word suddenly popped into his mind.
"Tossing and turning."
As soon as the cerebellum turned, I naturally understood the meaning of the word.
Ever since the strange dream came, some words would pop up in his mind from time to time, such as bells and whistles, ignorance, tossing and turning......
"I want to drink water......"
Tossed until the second half of the night, Yae Ji fell asleep.
This...... From that bizarre world, he gained knowledge of how to obtain water.
Early in the morning, Yae Ji, who had two panda eyes, got up, and there was only Rin left in the room except for him.
At this time, Sakura had already gone out to exercise his physical fitness according to his method.
The sacrifice half a month ago brought a psychological shadow to Sakura, and Yae Ji was not surprised, when he attended that sacrifice when he was a child, he had nightmares for more than ten days and couldn't sleep well. Psychological pressure is enormous.
Are the pure daughters who were sacrificed to the fox god really incarnated as souls and enshrined beside the fox god?
If it's true, the place where the fox god stays is really big enough, otherwise how can he stuff so many souls?
Yae Ji secretly complained, so he hurriedly put on his clothes and hurried to the warehouse of the shrine without stopping.
In addition to the normal reserve of rice flour in the warehouse, there is also a large amount of stone concentrate and a small amount of silver pyroxene.
There are also some things that have been preserved with special treatment, such as gobakusa and prunella grass. The herbs that are usually used for decoction are Yubaicao, and occasionally some extremely precious rush herbs are used.
Yaeji sniffed here, sniffed there, and rummaged through the warehouse for a while.
"Map of the birthplace of Yaemura medicinal herbs."
Rare medicinal herbs such as Yubaicao are very strict about the land, and they often only take root in one place, and even after collection, they will not take root in other places, so they can only wait for Yubaicao to be born again.
Originally, there were many places in Yae Village where Mimokusa could be born, but after the great drought, many places have long since stopped growing.
Why did Yaeji look for Yubaigusao? In Yae Village, Gohyakusa is arguably the most tenacious herb and can be encountered occasionally, even during periods of severe drought.
Yesterday he learned in a dream one of the solutions to water resources in another world.
Drilling.
Before drilling a well, it is necessary to select a site first, and how to choose a site is also a delicate job. Otherwise, if you don't see a drop of water at the end of the digging, it will be fatal.
Before digging a well in another world, he would choose a dense bush of mugwort, but he didn't know what mugwort was.
Since it's all grass, it must have similarities with Yubaicao.
Find a place where you can give birth to Mimokusa, and there is a good chance that you will dig up groundwater underneath!
Yaeki was convinced of this.
Next, the villagers of Yae Village can see Yaeki everywhere, and the early morning and evening are the venues for his main activities.
"The growth of the imperial herb in this position is obviously better than that of the imperial herb in the previous position. Should groundwater be more abundant than over there? Or is it easier to dig? Yae Ji made a mark.
"Ji!"
Yaeji, who heard someone call him, turned his head, and the impression that caught his eye was indeed a little girl he had never seen before.
With a blank face, Yae Ji wondered, "You are also from Yae Village?" ”
"Wait. Your hair...... Are you Hiyoshimaru his sister? Yae Ji was even more puzzled, "I've never heard that Hiyoshimaru has a younger sister. ”
The "girl" standing opposite Yaeji gritted her teeth and said, "Mother-in-law already knows what the Lord God thinks, and now she has gone to find out with Lord God, and ...... in the future ...... later"
"Father's thoughts? Picky? Pick out what? Later? What's next? ”
Yaeji in the setting sun continues to be dazed.
