Chapter 33: The Soul of Sorrow (2)
At a time when the development of many villages and towns is gradually moving closer to urbanization, Inarizuki Village is one of the few villages that can maintain its own characteristics.
In spring and summer, the gravel path is lined with soft grass and a variety of unknown wildflowers.
In autumn, it is covered in gold, and the silver moon hanging in the night sky will be stained with the color of wheat every autumn, and the golden moon seems to be closer to a remote village away from the hustle and bustle of the city than the bustling lights, and it is also a good experience to enjoy the moon in the field blowing the wheat breeze.
Many people from the city who come here will joke that Capida's village stole the moon belonging to Moon City, and Inagaki Village has earned the nickname "Moon Thief Village".
Of course, the locals are very dissatisfied with this, but offending the tourists will not only affect the income generation, but may also give people the impression that the Capitas are all petty.
While people with malicious intentions won't care too much about you when they splash dirty water, those who care about fame in the city will only say what happened to the people who lost Capida in these remote villages.
So most of the time, villages similar to Inagaki Village are always angry on both sides and don't dare to say more.

"It's nice to be surrounded by mountains and rivers, but be careful that when complimenting the locals, you should focus on the cultural scenery, and don't say how the moon is here, and the same is true for Charles."
Before entering the village, having done her homework, Louisa first looked around at the scenery, and then turned to the two of them and admonished.
"I didn't think you would make a strategy for the common people."
Ling Wan was taken aback when she heard this, in her cognition, with the identity of several of hers, the residents of the small village did not say that they came out to greet them collectively, at least the person in charge came out to wait, and then put on a reception banquet or something.
Although she was prejudiced against Lu Isa as a person, she still absolutely supported her identity, looking at her arrogant appearance in front of her, she thought that at least the two of them could agree on this kind of matter, so the words of respect for the common people could come out of her mouth, which Ling Wan really didn't expect.
"As I've said before, Louisa thinks about others."
"What's the difference between you and those Syracuse people, surrendering your identity."
"Ling Wan, even you can't say bad things about Syracuse."
"Got it, got itβyou've lived there for a few years, and now you're closer to that chilly place than to Capida."
"Alright, let's go inside."
Louisa stood on tiptoe and gently gave Ling Wan a hand knife, she snorted coldly and shut up, and the three of them entered the village together and went to Charles's house.
A guest knocked on the door, Charles's parents opened the door together to greet them as a courtesy, and saw three young girls standing outside the door, the husband's first reaction was that his children had caused some trouble outside, and the meticulous wife looked at it on the side, and found that although the three of them were wearing relatively light and low-key clothes, but from the temperament and conversation, they must have come from a large family, so they immediately greeted them into the house and arranged tea and snacks.
After hearing the three of them say that Charles had something at home, and came out of concern, his father's tense face also relaxed, and he smiled and said that his son wanted to help him with farm work, and now is the hottest time of the year, and the rain is frequent, so he should pay more attention, Louisa and Xue Eryue listened carefully, while Ling Wan sat on the side and fell asleep.
Seeing her like this, Charles's father didn't say much, and after adding tea to a few people, he found an excuse to go out.
"Big sister, are you explorers?"
A childish voice sounded, and a girl with pigtails appeared at the table, holding a bunch of broad-leaved irises in her hand, perhaps having just run through the ground, her cheeks flushed at the moment, and her forehead was sweating a little.
"No, we're travelers."
Xue Eryue reached out and rubbed the girl's hair.
"In this way, looking at the appearance of the big sister, I thought she was an explorer."
The girl said with some disappointment.
"Would you love to meet the explorer?"
"Hmmm! Explorers are brave, they ride the waves, and they will go to many dangerous and exciting places! The bottom of the sea, the mountains and forests, the depths of the snow-capped mountains! It should be more fun than the average trip..."
She was talking about her yearning, but as she spoke, she suddenly remembered that the few people sitting in front of her were travelers, and the girl's voice became weaker and weaker, until she was completely silent.
"I saw the fun and excitement of life, but I didn't see the rotten bread in their backpacks, the wild fruits that they desperately found to sustain their lives, and the dirty snow under their feet."
"Louisa, you should be encouraged to have a lot of good dreams for your children."
"Instead of waiting for her to grow up and cry with regret, it's better to tell her the cruel truth now."
The person being criticized clasped his arms in his hands, looking like "I'm not wrong".
"Haha, Miss Lancoste is right, Juri, if you want to be an explorer, these are indeed the problems you have to face."
Before Xue Eryue could speak, she heard the hearty laughter from the young man coming from outside the door.
Charles pushed the door open as he placed the heavy package on the wooden table by the door.
"Hmph, my brother always doesn't believe in Zhu Li, Zhu Li will do it!"
With that, my sister turned and ran away and went up to the second floor.
"I'm sorry to keep you waiting, you're going to be faster than I expected... Uh, is Miss Ling asleep? β
"Leave her alone, is it convenient now? We'd like to hear from you on the specifics. β
"Of course, please wait a minute."
Charles went upstairs and quickly changed into a clean outfit and walked down, still holding something in his hand.
"You should already know the relevant information, this is the map, I copied it by hand, and I have also surveyed it on the spot."
He laid the map flat on the table, and when Louisa saw this, she also opened the map in her hand, and after years of baptism and artificial transformation, only iconic buildings can prove that this is the same place.
"The original entrance is sealed? But if you look at it this way, it's buried in the mountains? β
"That's right, now this cave entrance has been blocked, and there are many houses built around it, because the original cave entrance is far away from the village, and there are no tourists, so it has been changed into a private house."
"It's hard to do..."
"What's so difficult, wouldn't it be nice to let this guy just blow it up."
Ling Wan was woken up by the sound of several people talking, rubbing her eyes, pointing at Louisa and saying.
"That's good, it's a suggestion that no one with a brain would make."
"Huh? How about carving a passage down from the top of the mountain? β
"It's no different from the previous suggestion, we're magicians, why do we have to use such a primitive method."
"Hmm, you're really too much... Why don't you just dig a tunnel? β
βοΌβ
"Don't look at me like that, do you think I'd be willing?"
"No, I think your suggestion is not bad."
"Yes, yes! Why don't you dig tonight? β
"That..."
Xue Eryue interrupted the two.
"Why don't we take a pigeon carriage?"
