Chapter 16: Brother and Sister
Night.
The treetops on the moon, strangely enough, the big tree facing the entrance of the shrine is slightly shorter than the other trees, as if it was cut off directly by a sharp weapon. Many villagers have already proposed to plant another one so as not to affect the majesty of the shrine.
Inside the shrine, in the side room where the Yae clan lived, Yae Rin, who had always slept at the earliest, turned over and over, looking at it with big eyes from time to time.
Yae Sakura's shop is adjacent to her, and Yaeki, who is her brother, sleeps on the other side of the house.
"Sister~"
Yae Rin called out in a low voice, his movements gentle, as if he was afraid of disturbing anyone.
Yae Sakura opened her eyes and looked at her sister together, for half a month, Sakura, who had been practicing [Falling Sakura Chop], had an extra sense of coldness in her originally soft eyes.
Yae Rin seemed to be frightened, leaned back slightly, and was grabbed by Yae Sakura's outstretched little hand.
Yae Rin patted her chest, lay down and squeezed onto Yae Sakura's bed.
"Sister~"
"Still not sleeping so late?"
"It's not like my sister hasn't slept~"
Yae Rin suddenly pulled the thin quilt and put it on top of the two of them.
"Sister, what do you think about Hiyoshimaru's sister?"
Yae Sakura's eyes changed slightly, and she still couldn't hide all her thoughts at a young age.
"It's up to my father to decide."
"Huh?" Yae Rin tugged at Sakura's cuffs, "Didn't my sister say that she would marry her brother after becoming a shrine maiden and serving the gods for a while?" ”
"Like Katori, Aso, and Kasuga in the village, aren't they all ...... Aren't they all brother and sister together? At the end of the sentence, Yae Rin's face flushed slightly.
"Katori? Spring? Yae Sakura recalled carefully, she couldn't remember so many people, how could Rin, who had barely been out of the shrine gate, know so much?
Sensing her sister's questioning eyes, Rin whispered, "I heard from the adults in the village who came to worship the gods. Some of the newcomers also come to the shrine to worship the gods, and they talk to me. ”
"What did you say?"
"Hmm......" Rin's eyes dodged, and the temperature of her pretty face rose slightly.
"He, they say, if there is a man and a woman in the Yae clan at the same time, it is generally the two of them who combine and become husband and wife, so as to ensure the purity of the bloodline of the next generation, so that the gods will not feel uncomfortable."
Yae Sakura's little face was also slightly red, obviously, she had heard this rumor a long time ago.
"So," Rin poked her sister, "what the hell do you think?" ”
"Me? I don't have any ideas, it's all up to my father. Sakura spoke so quickly that she finished speaking almost in the blink of an eye, and then she pulled off the quilt and turned over again, ignoring Yae Rin.
"Sister, I'm not in good health, and it's still unknown whether I can give birth to a healthy child, and my father will definitely not allow it. On the contrary, my sister, if she is so good, she will definitely become a shrine maiden who serves the gods, and you must know that my father and mother ......."
Yaeji, who was sleeping on the other side of the house, suddenly turned over, and Yae Rin was too frightened to speak anymore, and honestly nested in his bunk, not knowing what he was thinking.
The other side.
Two words popped up in Yaeji's mind again:
"German Orthopaedics", "British Tribunal"
'Brother and sister are not allowed to be combined in another world?' It's really strange, obviously those big lord families would do the same. ’
"Inexplicable."
Yae Ji muttered quietly, he cared more about how to get water resources than love, and whether the well he drilled could save the village.
Yaeki, who is obsessed with water resources, falls asleep again.
In this dream, he dreamed of a kind of artillery shell capable of artificial rain - rain-enhancing rockets!
The next morning, Yaeji, who had two bags under her eyes, was in poor spirits, and after hastily cleaning up, she was ready to continue to explore where to dig a well.
The kind of rain rockets from another world are not realistic for him. Yae Ji was puzzled, the other worlds have mastered the skill of turning their hands into clouds and turning their hands into rain, so didn't they control the power of the gods? No wonder they are so casual with the gods.
"It would be nice if Yae Village could be like them when it comes." In the small brain melon seeds of the eightfold ji, the rain bomb and the digging of the well alternate back and forth.
As a pragmatist, he still chose the relatively ancient way of digging wells in another world.
That night, Yae Ji, who had finally visited Yae Village, determined the location for digging the well, and he chose a place with the most abundant grass as the site.
At dinner, he told his father what he thought.
"Father, a plant like Yubaicao will definitely not be able to live without water resources, so there must be groundwater under Yubaicao."
"Groundwater?" It was the first time for the Yae God Lord to hear such a novel word, and he nodded, which was regarded as agreeing with Yae Ji's statement.
Yae Ji was overjoyed, and then said, "I plan to dig a well in the most lush area of Yubaicao to solve the problem of water shortage for the villagers. It's just that...... I don't know if the gods will allow us to do this. ”
Yae Shinjo narrowed his eyes and said, "There are no shrine maidens in the shrine who can communicate with the gods for the time being, so tomorrow you take Sakura with you, and we will pray to the gods for seven days, and if there are no accidents, we will start your plan again." ”
Yae Ji opened her mouth, but she still couldn't say anything.
"Yes."
"It's getting late, go back and rest, Sakura's training tomorrow morning will be suspended for seven days."
After Yae Ji left, the Yae God Lord was still sitting quietly.
He became more and more unable to understand the child.
The last time there was a monster in the back mountain, he also sent someone to check, except for a dried blood stain that could prove it, he didn't find any evidence of the monster released by the evil long box that his son said.
The Yae Shrine Lord stood up and walked to the deep room.
On the innermost wall is a shrine maiden costume composed of white, red, and black. There were traces of tearing on one side of the garment, and a lot of brown blood stains remained on it.
The eyes of the eightfold god lord, who had always been indifferent, revealed a touch of affection, and his palm gently stroked the corner of the costume.
"If only you were still here."
......
Seven days later, Yaeji, who had been prepared for a long time, began to gather his men and make tools that could dig wells with the help of the blacksmiths and carpenters in the village, using the young people in the patrol as the standard.
Working early in the morning and evening every day, the progress of the project is getting faster and faster.
What is Master Ji going to do?
No one knew that even the "respectable" old people in the village went to inquire, but they could not get any useful information.
"This eightfold Ji Bacheng has been guided by the gods, and only the shrine maidens of the past generations in the village can communicate with the fox god from time to time. Yae Ji practiced the cherry blossom slash and became a shrine shrine maiden of this generation? The old lady of the Hiyoshimaru family was puzzled, and several others were also puzzled, so they could only take it as a guide from the gods, and pay close attention to the "progress of the project" in the mouth of Lord Ji every day.
One night, Yae Ji tried to light up the "Heart of Prajna" on the panel in a dream, and this time, his skill points were finally enough.
