Chapter 61: Cherry Blossom Season
In the world, the tea garden on the southwest side has now become a place for many people to visit the scenery.
Lu Yuan's tea garden is not only connected to the cherry blossom forest, but also separated by a meadow more than ten meters wide, which has a taste of wanting to talk about it. The tall tea trees have become lush forests and are neatly arranged. Against the backdrop of the blossoming cherry blossom forest, it has a quiet chic. The ground under the forest, after being treated by Lu Yuan's medicine, now only grows a blanket-like lawn, where visitors can sit and lie down conveniently.
For cherry blossoms, some people like to enjoy them under the trees, to see the beauty of the color gradient of the flowers, and to like the prosperity wrapped in flowers; Some people like to watch from afar to see the pile of bright clouds and thick as Shu brocade. Lu Yuan's tea garden is a suitable place to see the cherry blossom forest from afar.
The weather is fine today, wait until the morning fog clears, and Lu Yuan picks the spring tea and leaves. There were crowds of people coming from the other side of the world. They spread a base cloth under the tea tree, set up a table, and brought adults and children to play while enjoying the flowers. Although Lu Yuan didn't say anything, he also quietly placed a few magic circles around the tea garden to protect these people from those little monsters.
Although Lu Yuan didn't want to see the Japanese, he couldn't control it outside the tea garden, and if he came to his territory, he couldn't let the monsters be slaughtered at will.
On the east side of the tea plantation, there is a large pit and a small pit, and there is no grass growing, and we will not investigate the cause (if you don't want to be killed by Queen Yuxiang). Now it's full of building materials, and Lu Yuan plans to completely renovate Hakurei Shrine after the cherry blossoms bloom. After all, he only lived here for four years, and Lu Yuan didn't want to wait until after leaving. Hakurei Shrine began to dilapidated again within a few years.
Reimu is the only one at Hakurei Shrine, and it's impossible to maintain such a large area of the building.
Therefore, the things prepared by Lu Yuan are not just ordinary building materials. He was also buying and delivering various alchemical materials from the Dawn, preparing to solve the problem once and for all.
Lu Yuan prepares in his secret room every day...... As for the ordinary building materials that are procured from the earth. Just pile it up in this open space. Lu Yuan had already paid the payment, and the villagers only needed to pile up the trimmed wood, polished stones, lacquer, twine, etc. Don't look at the big pits and small pits on it, since it was oppressed by the demonic power that erupted in the fragrance of the fragrance, the ground there was harder than stone - it is estimated that it will take fifty years for the grass to grow...... It's perfectly fine to do a temporary accumulation field.
But at this time, those building materials were being "devoured" by a cracked, monster-like gap. In a few moments, all but the building materials used to repair the stone steps had been transferred to the Hakurei Shrine...... As for whether Zi Ma was so tired that she crawled on the ground and gasped for breath, we don't know...... Instead, it is Lu Yuan's Jiamu House. At this time, there are guests who have come to visit.
"Please agree to this request!" The petite ninth-generation daughter of Ali, Barnyard Aqiu knelt on the floor and begged for a big gift.
Lu Yuan was a little embarrassed, when this little girl first saw it, she was a girl who was easy to bully. But after a period of contact, you will find that she is a very stubborn and strong idealist at heart! The lack of strength does not affect her mobility at all.
Just look at a few things that happened after Lu Yuan and her correspondence.
When she found out that Lu Yuan provided tea leaves that could refresh her mind and help her books, she could come to Lu Yuan alone to learn how to make tea despite her identity as the head of her family; When the people of the barnyard family made a mistake. She also tried her best to accept the present and pleaded guilty to Lu Yuan without arguing.
Now that the cherry blossoms are blooming, she came to ask Lu Yuan for help, so that people in the world can also enjoy the cherry blossoms freely - isn't this the right to walk safely?
"You have a good relationship with both Hakurei Shrine and Sunflower Field. And I heard that you and the Red Devil Pavilion are also ......" Barnyard Aqiu's face was red, and he couldn't say it.
"I have nothing to do with the Red Devil Pavilion!" Lu Yuan retorted loudly! But...... Barnyard Aqiu nodded vigorously in cooperation, looking like "I will believe whatever you say". Lu Yuan was defeated and retreated...... "There really isn't ~"
"Well, I promised! But it's not good to have no reason," Lu Yuan pretended to think about ......it. Only then did he say, "Do you think this is good...... I just want to repair the Hakurei Shrine on the mountain. If that's the reason.,There's a shrine maiden of Hiroshi suppressing it.。 Presumably, the monsters did not dare to object. Then, on these days when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, I plan to hire a craftsman from the earth to repair the stone steps leading to Hakurei Shrine.
Every family who wants to go up the mountain only needs to transport a piece of stone from the outside site and hand it over to the stonemason who is responsible for the maintenance, and they are considered to be involved in the project...... Do you think that's good? As long as they don't get too far from the stone steps, whether it's me or the Hakurei shrine maiden, they will keep everyone safe. ”
"That's good, Lord Lu, thank you so much! I'm going to go back and inform everyone......" Aqiu stood up happily and prepared to go back to report the good news.
At this time, Lu Yuan seemed to ask casually, "Ah Qiu, I remember that you prefer to stay at home and write books, why have you been so ...... lately?" Active? "In Anne's booklet, Aqiu is an absolute otaku who is in-depth and simple, and only repairs books regardless of everything. Now that he has become a human rights activist, he has to pay attention......
"Ah, it's my editor!" Barnyard Aqiu said excitedly, "I adopted his method, it's really great!" Sure enough, if you don't get in touch with nature and don't understand people's livelihood, you can't write a good book! And I like cherry blossoms very much......" She rolled up her sleeves a little shyly, letting Lu Yuan notice that she was wearing a light-colored spring kimono today, and the pattern on it was colorful cherry blossoms.
"You still have an editor? Hehe~" Lu Yuan smiled indistinctly, "A talented person." You know, I hardly care about these things...... Unlike Kami-Shirasawa Keion and Fujiwara Meihong, or the H7N9 at Moriya Shrine, they all take care of ordinary humans...... How could Ah Qiu remember to come to me? ”
"Today, Huiyin-sensei is going to take the children to visit the mysterious Moriya Shrine, and Meihong and Daiki Qì have to help ......," replied Aqiu with a look of "I want to go too" on his face. I'm still a child.
"What a coincidence...... Lu Yuan touched his chin and went to three ...... at once Maybe two helpers. It's just too TMD's coincidence!
*******
The stone staircase that connects the world and Hakurei Shrine like a jade belt is now also full of tourists. But there are no monsters, only humans from the human world. They carried stones and walked towards the mountain. As a family, the parents take it for a while, and the children help for a while, and the goal is achieved, and the whole family can enjoy themselves.
Families with great strength will go higher, and those with less strength will not care about anything even if they are placed directly at the foot of the mountain.
These people clearly cherish the hard-won opportunity. After the stone is lowered, the family members disperse and sit on both sides of the stone steps, and offer tea, sake, and sweets, and enjoy the flowers. After a while, the sounds of flutes, shengpans, and Noh sounded one after another.
Lu Yuan stood at the window on the second floor and looked out...... Let these people carry stones up the mountain, in addition to saving costs, there is naturally a second meaning.
When the cherry blossoms bloom next year, there must still be people who mention "repairing stone steps". At that time, you might as well go down with the water...... As long as a habit is formed, this road is repaired every year, and the shelter during the cherry blossom viewing period is nothing. Besides, Boli Mountain was originally very safe, and there were shrine maidens. Youkai of all sizes did not dare to kill humans near Mt. Hakuri.
……
“Ahhhh~FreshMeat!” (Don't say DOTA, this was originally a line in Diablo 1) A big monster with an ugly appearance, hiding in the cherry blossom forest. Grinning with grinning. This guy who had appeared in chapter twenty-two, but didn't even have a name, was unwilling to crawl out of the corner again.
But this big monster. It's not Gensokyo's native youkai. The main god world is so big, there is a strengthened humanoid bloodline. Naturally, there are also those who have been strengthened into youkai, which is not surprising. These people are living in Gensokyo, just treating it as a casual world, and they don't pay much attention to doing tasks in the first place. But just the day before yesterday, the Lord God suddenly issued an additional mission—this was almost never seen in the past history of the Lord God Space!
There is only one quest: within the time limit, all the reincarnators must work together to kill that terrible guy......
That's why he's here today.
"Go ahead! Attack those humans! I'll help you hold back Reimu Hiro! I have only one request......" He brutally cracked his mouth open to reveal his shark-like inverted teeth, "Kill as much as you want!" ”
"Yo~" The twenty or so little monsters who were summoned by him let out a burst of cheers in unison.
"Go ahead! I'm watching you from behind! The big monsters gestured their eyes, and the little monsters lowered their heads in awe, and then ducked into the grass one after another, diving towards the crowd near the stone steps...... In fact, these little monsters are not powerful, and their strength may not be much different from a vicious wolf or a tiger...... If human beings work together to contend with each other, it may not be impossible to clean up. It's a pity that the assumption of working together is a false proposition in the first place!
The big youkai looked at the approaching youkai and the crowd, and his big mouth cracked, revealing the shape of a smile...... Whether it's monsters killing people, or Lu Yuan killing monsters...... On this mountain, where monsters and humans gather at the same time, it will only cause more dissatisfaction...... A little more provocative......
A small monster with long arms scurried up the tree, and the surrounding humans did not notice its existence. It hid itself, then stretched out its arms strangely, and slowly leaned towards the child under the tree......
"Poof~" There was a very slight sound that even the humans under the tree did not hear it. A thumb-sized hole appeared on the little monster's forehead, and it lay limply on the tree, only the blood flowed slowly down the trunk.
"Boom ......" An ejected bullet casing flew two meters out and crashed into the environmental plane, making a crisp impact sound. This is one of the shortcomings of the PSG-1 sniper rifle, the shell is thrown far away, and it is easy to leak the position, but Lu Yuan does not care at all. He was now sitting on the edge of Kazami's bed, facing the window facing Mt. Hakurei. Lu Yuan sat on a bamboo chair, holding a black sniper rifle with his eyes next to the scope.
Although this gun has a built-in silencer and the sound of shooting is not loud, Lu Yuan still brought sound-isolating headphones for Youxiang very intimately. On the bed next to Yuxiang, there were also four or five full twenty-round magazines at random, each of which was filled with shiny 7.62×51mm hand-loaded ammunition...... These freshly made bullets were mounted with alloy heavy warheads, which were engraved with runes and temporarily strengthened with Lu Yuan's magic......
Lu Yuan's shoulders were against the telescopic butt, he turned the muzzle of the gun coldly, and pulled the trigger continuously almost without thinking - in his scope, one after another little monsters fell down with blood. At the same time as they died, the flame of life also died in Lu Yuan's eyes. The Alloy Demon Breaker Warhead can easily penetrate their defenses, and then the magic attached to it...... will crush their souls! - Completely erase the traces of zài, in this world, there are not many more cruel things than this.
Eventually, the bullet will stagnate in their body, and they won't even bleed much......
After changing the magazine again, Lu Yuan searched carefully, and there were no more monsters in his field of vision that tried to kill humans.
Lu Yuan put down the sniper rifle in his hand, picked up a round three-foot "iron rod", and jumped out of the window.
The next moment, he had already appeared in front of the big monster!

PS1: Gensokyo is about halfway complete, and I'm going to try to make this volume better, and I'll have a total of 400,000 words when I'm done. If it grows longer, it loses the flavor of Gensokyo.
PS2: Why do some readers always think that I am the same person as the author who wrote about that big world? For the record, absolutely not.
PS3: Book friends who voted for the change, if you vote for 9000, I can make three changes with my efforts. But 12,000 ...... I'm working on a detailed outline of Mass Effect, and although I've only had two shifts lately, I've not been idle.
PS4: Thank you! This book has officially exceeded 2000! Thanks again! (To be continued......)
