Part 3 Episode 1 Endgame
This great change has made Gensokyo go through an unprecedented test.
It had already become scarred under the destruction of Yakumo Purple, and the appearance of the dragon god added a deep knife to this wound. It can be said that if he hadn't left in time, Gensokyo would have really collapsed.
Thankfully, it managed to survive.
It took two days for the flood waters to subside, but it left a lot of problems.
First of all, the lake of the wind god, the collapse of the Nine Heavens Waterfall almost drained the water in the lake, which made the gods and monsters in the mountains very worried. They have already begun to discuss whether to rebuild the dam, and if not to rebuild it, they should close the gap.
When floods occur, there are many areas affected along the way, especially in the world. Houses collapsed in large numbers, and the whole village was turned into a quagmire. What makes the villagers even more anxious is that the crops planted near the village are basically gone.
This year's crops, affected by the floods, almost did not have a grain harvest, and many people were so sad that they fell to their knees.
However, it is not these problems that bother everyone the most, but the mountains of corpses.
There are too many of these creatures from another world, and after they are destroyed, they do not disappear like youkai, and the corpses are piled up on the ground. Whether it is buried or burned, the sheer number of them makes everyone feel that they are more than enough to do it.
Youkai are also not interested in these corpses, saying that they taste too bad and are not easy to digest.
At that time, I criticized them, are they so hungry? Even eat that kind of thing.
However, if you don't dispose of the corpses of these monsters, it is easy to have problems. In the late summer, when the weather is still very hot, these corpses are very easy to decompose, and at that time, it is not as simple as the whole Gensokyo becoming stinky.
This problem that made everyone helpless was finally solved by the monsters from the underground, Flame Cat Li, who moved the corpses of these monsters to the underground world in a small car, saying that it was used as fuel for the scorching hell.
Flame Cat, who used to be called the "corpse thief", was warmly welcomed by people for the first time, which also made her very excited and worked harder. Coupled with the help of other underground monsters and ghosts, it took a day and a half to finally move all the corpses on the ground.
At this time, the underground slowly stabilized, and the inhabitants from the underground world returned to the old hell under the leadership of Gu Ming Dijue.
Being watched every day is not a very pleasant thing for them.
Although they did help everyone a lot, they were still not accepted by the youkai on the ground.
I can only deeply regret this deep-rooted concept, which I cannot change alone.
At least not in the short term.
Gu Ming felt that they were very open-minded, although the surface was beautiful, but the underground world was their true home.
But it didn't take long for the flame cat to slip to the ground again, and according to her report, the corpses of those otherworldly creatures were simply treasures!
The best proof of this is that Gensokyo has recently had a large number of geysers spewing out.
After learning the news, the injured Yasaka Kanako immediately rushed to the deepest part of the old hell with the other two pillars of the gods of the Moriya Shrine. The fact did not disappoint her, but due to excessive excitement, the wound of the guide was cracked again, and finally she was carried back again.
What a stupid god.
Bayi Yonglin's injuries were more difficult to deal with, and it took me a day and a night before I finally removed the strange power in her body. However, if you want to recover completely, you don't have to count on it without ten days and half a month.
I was extremely dissatisfied with her self-mutilating act of stabbing herself in the liver with an arrow, saying that she did not care for her body. In the face of my falls, Bayi Yonglin just looked at me with a smile from beginning to end, so that I couldn't go on.
Lingxian and Emperor Inaba were sent back to the Lost Bamboo Forest to build the Eternal Pavilion, and before it was repaired, the other two could only live in the Xingli Palace, which was also for the sake of the injury of the Eight Meanings Yonglin, after all, in the Xingli Palace, the conditions for care and treatment were much better.
It was Penglai Mountain Huiye, although he couldn't help with anything, but he insisted on staying by Bayi Yonglin's side. This gave me a new understanding of her, this arrogant and proud princess Her Royal Highness is still quite humane!
A qiē in Gensokyo seems to be slowly returning to its original track.
It's just that once something changes, it can never be restored to its original appearance......
As a punishment for taking the second lady out without permission (in fact, she was taken out), Red Misuzu was ordered to be in charge of cleaning up the floor above the Red Devil Pavilion. Although the water was gone, the house was dirty.
The garden in the courtyard was completely destroyed, and many of the flowers were washed into the Western-style pavilion along with the roots.
It can be seen that it is not an easy task to clean up.
Later, I walked around the Red Devil Pavilion and made another suggestion. The water in the Lake of Mist receded, leaving a thick layer of silt in the soaked woods, which contained everything, including the remains of small animals. If you don't get rid of them, it won't take a few days for the Red Devil Pavilion to turn into a foul-smelling hell.
When Remilia heard me say this, she immediately felt that it made sense, and this difficult task naturally fell on the poor man's head. Remilia asked her to remove all the mud within 500 meters of the Red Devil Pavilion, no matter what method was used.
I didn't actively help as I used to, but I taught Hongmisuzu how to use her own strength to evaporate the water from the soil, turning it into dry mud, which was much easier to move.
Hong Meiling is naturally very grateful for this, but she doesn't know that it is because of my advice that her workload will increase greatly.
"It stinks. ”
Remilia's small hand flicked in front of her nose, and she didn't know what was starting to rot nearby, leaving the air in the air with a disgusting smell.
"What the hell is Menfan doing, he hasn't dealt with things for so long?"
"Don't be too her. ”
I shook my head and said to her.
When the lake rises, it covers too much area, not to mention relying on Red Misuzu alone, even if all the people in the Red Devil Pavilion are dispatched, it will be difficult to remove the mud.
"Really. ”
Of course, Remilia doesn't really blame Red Misuzu, but the current situation makes her a little irritable.
Especially this guy in front of you.
"I said, can you stop getting so close?"
She squinted at the man, very resentful in her heart. What are these little ghosts doing, and they all lean on that guy.
The most annoying thing is that there is also her sister in it.
"I can't help it!"
I wanted to spread my hands to express my helplessness, but I found that my hands were hugged by Qiluno and Otomu Chiba left and right, and I couldn't move, and finally I only shrugged my shoulders in frustration.
After returning to Shengen Island that day, I used my fastest speed to stabilize the spatial passage, and then went out to pick up a few imps back to the island.
I don't know what happened to them at the time, everyone's eyes were red and swollen, and when they saw me, they cried loudly. After I comforted them for a long time, the guys finally stopped crying. But since then, the little girls have become super clingy to me, and they follow me wherever I go, and even when I go out of the toilet, I will find someone guarding the door, and I almost freak out the hell. What's especially bad is that they all come to my room at night, and they don't want to leave no matter how much they try to persuade them. I had no choice but to wait until they had enough to fall asleep before sending the little ghosts back to their bedrooms.
In short, the past few days have been enough, and I have been thinking about how to resolve this kind of relationship between them.
"Fran, come over to me. ”
Flandrew, who was sitting on my lap, stared at her sister for a long time, and then finally fell back to my chest.
"Don't. ”
The eldest lady was so angry that she almost overturned the table in front of her. But thinking that it was his own thing, he endured it and just stared at the culprit viciously.
I shuddered at her, really, it's not my fault, why blame me?
My neck was sore, and Lumia had been lying on my head for a long time, still reluctant to come down.
Misty and Liglaw were still well-behaved! they didn't do what they did, but sat quietly next to me.
"Okay, you all let me go, it's really inconvenient for me to do this!"
The girls just looked at me, and none of them left.
What a bunch of little fools.
With great difficulty, I pulled out my hand and put my arms around them, and several of them touched their heads together.
"Don't worry, I'll always be by your side. ”
"Wow......"
A few girls pursed their mouths, tears flowed down their eyes, and they suddenly burst into tears.
"What did you do to them?"
Remilia asked angrily, not hearing what the other man was saying.
"It's okay, just vent it. ”
Let go of the bitter crying, and the girls' feelings of gain and loss finally disappeared with the tears, and one by one they quickly became happy again as usual.
"It's really ......"
Seeing her sister, who had been depressed for the past few days, running around the house again in good spirits, Remilia couldn't help but let out a long breath.
"Master, we're going to go out and play. ”
"Well, don't play too long!"
"Yes. ”
A group of little girls answered and ran out giggling.
"Oh, what do you little devils want to do in such a hurry?"
"Patsy, let's hang out together!"
"I'm tired, so I don't want to. ”
After a while, I saw Patchouli arranging her hat and walking in with the little devil.
The guys burst out and knocked her down.
"I was all lifeless before, but as soon as I recovered, I became a group of naughty ghosts again. ”
When she heard the cry, she thought something was wrong, but seeing that they were so energetic, Pache was relieved.
The little devil pulled a chair away and sat her down.
"I really want to thank you this time!"
Pache moved her shoulders and said to the man.
As she feared, water did seep into the underground library. Fortunately, she had a drainage channel built inside, which was built by Dongfang Yao, and he said that the Red Devil Pavilion was too close to the Lake of Mists, and the library was built very deep underground, which was easy to insect. At first, Pache was a little scoffed at his words, and now she has to admire the other party's foresight.
There wasn't much water seeping in, and it was quickly drained away, and only a very small number of books were soaked, and she was dealing with these things with Sixteen Night Sakuya and the little devil just now.
"This time it's too special for this kind of problem. ”
If it weren't for the rising waters of the Lake of Mist, the library would have been able to sit back and relax.
"Yes, I've also heard that the human village is the worst hit, and the people who live in the village are homeless. ”
"How do you know?"
I was slightly surprised, where did this guy who squatted in the library all day get this news?
"It's all written in the newspapers!"
Patchouli has always believed that the newspaper is a particularly great invention, and that the ability to keep people aware of the events happening around them without leaving their homes is simply made for people like her who don't like to go out.
Although occasionally she would suspect that many of the news reported in these newspapers were fabricated.
"Oh. ”
I see, I see.
There was such a serious incident in Gensokyo, and as a journalist with a strong professional ethic, the Tengu of Yokai Mountain did not come out of the nest.
At this time, Sixteen Night Sakuya came in with a pot of tea.
It wasn't long before Flandrew and the others returned. Seeing the appearance of those guys, Remilia squirted out a mouthful of black tea.
"What are you guys doing here?"
The imps were drenched all over, and their clothes were covered in mud that smelled strange, and they were so filthy.
"I'm sorry Miss, it's all because I didn't take a good look at them. ”
Red Misuzu was scared and kept bowing to Remilia, she looked even worse than the others.
"Hey, hey, hey. ”
A few naughty guys didn't speak, just touched their heads and giggled.
"How can this be reasonable, Sakuya immediately took them to the bath. ”
"Yes, Miss. ”
Sixteen Saka called to Qiluno and asked to take them to the bathroom.
"People want to wash with Brother Haruka. ”
"Nonsense. ”
Remilia angrily grabbed Flandrore's ears and pulled her away.
"I really can't rest assured! ”
"That's right. ”
Regarding Dongfang Yao's words, Patchouli deeply agreed.
"So, if you leave quietly one day, they're going to be a mess. ”
"Hmm...... Am I a sedative?"
