Chapter 299: The Snowy Night, the Full Moon, and the Quiet Bamboo Forest

At night, the full moon rises, like a bright lamp hanging above the canopy, and a tranquility sprinkles the earth with the silver mist of moonlight.

I don't know what the situation is in the outside world, but in Gensokyo, this year's Christmas can be said to be a coincidence: one is that the whole of Gensokyo has been in the weather until the blizzard in the past few days, and the other is that Christmas Day is a full moon night.

It stands to reason that since it is snowing so heavy that it rains, not to mention the moon, even the stars cannot be seen, because they will be covered by clouds, but what Feng Longde saw was that in the sky full of snowflakes, he found that there was a piece of sky that was not as dense as the surrounding thick clouds, but empty and clear, and the full moon like a silver disk was located in it, shining downward with the bright moonlight, making the earth white, as if wearing a hazy light veil.

"This is too contrary to common sense, don't be a mutation" After seeing the dense bamboo shadows on the horizon, Feng Longde slowed down his horse again, and his left hand was already holding the reins to control the actions of the undead war horse, and the right hand, which had nothing to do, stretched out to the left side of the waist and abdomen, and tightened the hilt of the knight's sword, "The climate is not abnormal, it just feels strange, I said, this kind of scene where you can see the moon on a snowy day is not often seen in many anime and comics!" I didn't expect that I could encounter this kind of scene in Gensokyo, and I was also drunk."

While he was complaining in the heart of his soul, Feng Longde suddenly pulled the knight's long sword out of its sheath, made a posture that could not only slash with the speed of the horse, but also raise the block in the shortest time, and stopped the undead war horse.

With the help of the soul scan, Feng Longde quickly found the reason why he instinctively made a defensive stance: in the mid-air near the horizon in front of him, a figure wearing a dark blue and white dress loomed, and not far behind him, there was a second figure that was much shorter and slender than this figure, but it was a sky blue and white dress. No matter which one it is, even if you use a soul scan to "see" the past, the figure is slightly blurry. There were snowflakes and ice crystals floating behind them, and the environment was a little colder than before—this Feng Longde found that every time these two figures flew over, the snowflakes along the way suddenly became a lot denser, and it seemed to bring a bitter cold wind, and it seemed that the frequency of snow in the vicinity was much faster.

"Ha, it scares me, it's Raidy the Winter Monster and Kiruno, the Ice Elf. I thought it was some kind of flying monster. Feng Longde used his soul scan and naked eye vision to carefully observe for a while, and then discovered the true identity of these two figures, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and withdrew the knight's long sword into the scabbard, "This kind of weather is really suitable for these two activities."

As for Raydy, the winter monster, Feng Longde had a few contacts after a fight with Qi Luno and Lumia when he first came to Gensokyo and camped, and soon there was no subsequent contact due to the arrival of spring, so naturally he didn't know much about the situation of this guy who said that he was a monster and was actually a kind of god incarnated in winter; 。 Friendship is somewhat similar to how a host and guest can talk to each other in person

"Damn, no wonder you can see tonight's full moon in this snowflake weather, it turns out that it is the credit of these two" Feng Longde wanted to continue riding forward, but after he saw clearly what these two girls were doing that were either related to winter or ice and snow, those blue eyes almost didn't stick out of the peephole of the demon's ring-winged barrel helmet, "You can actually work together to control the clouds within a certain range to spread out so that the full moon can shine on the earth?" It seems that the night of the full moon is really an important day for the youkai in Gensokyo, and it is probably not a mutation, otherwise it would be time for Reimu to be dispatched as a non-disciplined witch."

Although Feng Longde was a little curious, whether the two girls dispersed the clouds and revealed the full moon were their spontaneous actions, or if they were commissioned by other monsters. However, he also knew that he couldn't communicate with these two now—Reddy and Kirunor were both flying at a constant speed in mid-air now, and Feng Longde might not be able to catch up with even if he spurred the undead war horse under his crotch to the highest speed. Even with the help of the Ron's ability to glide from the sprint, he was not confident that he would be able to "fly" to them, and the most likely outcome would be for Reddy and Kirunor to see a large, indistinct black dot in the distance crashing into the snow with a sharp whistling sound, like a dumb aerial bomb

"It seems that if I have time in the future, I will need to talk to Qiluno and the others a little. Feng Longde shook the reins, prompting the undead warhorse to step out of its hooves again. Walking in the direction of the Lost Bamboo Forest, "It seems that as Remilia and Hatsune Miku said, I should communicate with other people more?"

After carefully recalling his experience of coming to Gensokyo, Feng Longde found that he really needed to have more contact and communication with other Gensokyo characters - this year, because he needed to be busy with the construction of the Teutonic camp, the development and the formation of the army, as well as a series of work and affairs, Feng Longde rarely had much communication with the characters of Gensokyo. The only few contacts and exchanges he had were basically not the banquets and salons that the Gensokyo girls invited him to, but he was in contact with them because of the things and work he needed to deal with.

It can be said that Feng Longde in Gensokyo this year, in addition to being the leader of the Teutonic camp, he needs to be busy with all kinds of affairs and temper his personal strength, in terms of dealing with people, he is still the same as an ordinary senior fat house uncle, he is not particularly good at and wants to contact and communicate with other people.

This can be said to be both Feng Longde's disadvantage and his advantage: the disadvantage is naturally that he lacks communication with others because of this, which makes him more withdrawn, but he also cultivates his tenacious and tenacious character, and attaches great importance to feelings in his bones- Von Rond had always been unexpectedly persistent in doing what he thought he had to do or was interested in doing until it was done, and he also valued his friends, which is why he had been obsessed with Weisk and the others until now and wondered how to bring them to Gensokyo.

Because for Feng Longde, friendship is the only emotion he can get after he has no family affection.

"It depends. I hope I can have more free time in the new year, so that I can talk to the girls in Gensokyo, even if I can play more games and read books. Looking at the Lost Bamboo Forest that was getting closer and closer to him, Feng Longde silently thought about what he didn't have, "I've been at home for several years, can I not get used to meeting so many people from now on." There aren't many normal humans yet, all of them are a bunch of supernatural or abnormal human girls."

That is, Feng Longde, a guy with a real heart, would complain like this, if it were replaced by other people or the protagonists in those vulgar online novels, it is estimated that he would have been happy a long time ago, and he would think all the time about how to include all the girls he saw in his harem; 。 So it can only be said that he deserves to be single until now, and he is still a virgin

After entering the Lost Bamboo Forest, Feng Longde controlled the speed of the undead war horse to a slightly faster frequency than walking, and once again pulled out the knight's long sword from his waist with his right hand, ready to attack anytime and anywhere.

In addition to the fact that it is very easy to get lost here, the most dangerous thing in the Lost Bamboo Forest is that there are many kinds of animals and monsters living in the outer area: the former is good, there are not too many aggressive or carnivorous animals. But the latter is not easy to say, like evil ghosts and Andleig can be said to abound. There are still a lot of other strange and very dangerous monsters, and if people who don't have a certain strength want to enter, they have to be prepared to leave a suicide note.

As dangerous as the outlying areas are, somewhere in the area there lives a strange human who acts as a guard and guide for the human inhabitants who need to go to the Eternal Pavilion to see a doctor and buy medicine, ensuring their safety.

"Then again. Fujiwara Meihong, that Penglai immortal lives in the outer area of the Lost Bamboo Forest, right?" Using soul scanning and naked eye vision to be vigilant about the movements around him, Feng Longde walked slowly along the winding path between the bamboo bushes, "It seems that Huiyin still wanted to introduce me to that Penglai immortal girl before, and I don't know what the two of us are in common, so it can't be because we are both axes, right?"

The lost bamboo forest covered by heavy snow highlights the word "quiet", at this moment. Except for the sound of the huge hooves of the undead war horse under Feng Longde's crotch trampling on the snow, the surroundings were quiet, as if the entire bamboo forest had fallen into hibernation.

"I didn't expect it to be so cold today, this kind of low-temperature ghost weather coupled with heavy snowfall, insect monsters like Andregg should have entered hibernation, right?" Feng Longde felt that the cold condensed by the Teutonic Gothic plate armor on his body was gradually invading his body, which indicated that the weather was starting to become colder, "The winter in Gensokyo is really cold enough, it is even more northeast than the northeast, just because there is a winter monster and ice fairy here?"

Although the heart of the soul complained about these words, Feng Longde knew very well that he had come here tonight to find and hunt all kinds of monsters to hone and refine his combat skills, and he couldn't just go home because the weather was cold and he couldn't find a suitable target—Feng Longde's current personal strength could be developed to this point, although it was not as good as those famous big monsters, But the degree to which he is comfortable dealing with ordinary monsters and goblins and has an absolute advantage over ordinary humans is precisely because of his perseverance in the things he cares about, and if this is replaced by ordinary people, the biggest possibility is that he is lazy and does not do it.

After walking along the sheep intestine path that staggered between the bamboo bushes and the bamboo bushes for a while, the scene in front of Feng Longde suddenly opened up, and those dense bamboo bushes also began to extend to both sides, revealing a large clearing in the bamboo forest.

"I have to be careful in the clearing between the bamboo forests. Feng Longde reined in the immortal warhorse, and his right hand, which held the hilt of the knight's sword, became tighter and tighter.

Whether it is the outer area of the Lost Bamboo Forest, which is full of animals and monsters, or the central area where the Eternal Pavilion exists, there is basically no natural open space - the vegetation coverage rate of the Lost Bamboo Forest itself is very high, and all kinds of plants, especially bamboo, grow faster than the hormones, if it were not for the fact that the scale of the Lost Bamboo Forest is very large but will not expand indefinitely, then those woodcutters in the world should build a logging field near the Lost Bamboo Forest, not in the outer area of the Enchanted Forest.

It can be seen that the places where there can be open spaces in the Lost Bamboo Forest often have strange places: according to Feng Longde's experience of hunting here and in the Enchanted Forest several times, the open spaces that last for a period of time are basically the nests of monsters, for example, the nests of evil ghosts are established in the open space, but they do not build a shack or a house like humans, but dig holes underground, which causes them to build their nests in the open space and clean up the newly grown saplings and bamboo shoots at any time, otherwise there will not be half a month, and the empty place will return to the dense state of the bamboo forest.

Feng Longde quietly got down from the undead war horse, and with his left hand, he took out a one-handed battle axe from the bag on the back of the undead war horse, and quickly observed the surrounding environment with a pause.

"Judging by the surrounding vegetation, the last time it was cleaned up was about a week ago, which means that there are people here at all times. Through soul scanning and naked eye vision, Feng Longde constantly analyzed the situation here, "The clearing near the edge of the bamboo forest seems to have traces of being burned by fire, this is not a crypt where evil ghosts live in groups, not only is there no hole that they have dug out and simply camouflaged, not to mention, as far as I know, I have never heard of evil ghosts using fire, and they are used to throwing leftover food scraps everywhere to stink, but this place is as clean as a special cleaner." ”

After continuing to observe and analyze the situation of the environment here for a while, Feng Longde suddenly withdrew the weapons in his two hands into the scabbard and the armed belt, one left and one right, and strode in one direction of the clearing.

In that direction, a small bamboo hut sits alone in a corner of the clearing near the bamboo forest, looking like a hermit's hut. (To be continued.)
