The size of the Jackdaw is relatively large, although it is nothing compared to the entire mountain of monsters.

However, it is impossible for the Tengu to be so careless as to allow this ship-shaped magic weapon with amazing energy and magic response, which can be said to be an aerial fortress, to directly enter their airspace in the mountains. Moreover, compared to the ghost clan, the society of the Tengu Still quite exclusive.

The result was that even with Murasaki Yakumo as a guarantor, he entered the area near the Yokai Mountain relatively smoothly, but he still could not enter the mountain directly.

Gu Mo naturally had no objection to this. He was already prepared for this as he drove such a big ship over. After all, if you think about it from his perspective, you probably don't want to sit at home and watch a magic starship crash into the sky above your house.

Even if the other party is really not hostile, it is inevitable that he will feel unhappy. This is always inevitable...

So he simply followed Yakumo Murasaki's suggestion and sailed the magic ship to a deep stream near the Monster Mountain, where it anchored and temporarily parked on the river as a ship-shaped base.

This deep gorge has no name. It is a large canyon located at the foot of Monster Mountain. Its terrain is quite complex, and it appears to be long, narrow, and winding. However, it can only accommodate a ketch less than a hundred meters long. Still more than enough.

The deep stream was obviously formed during the early volcanic activity of Yokai Mountain. The stone walls on both sides are landforms formed by the solidification of volcanic magma. They are like tortoise shells and are cracked into hexagonal rocks. In later generations, these hexagonal rocks will probably be called For "basalt stone".

The environment in the canyon is relatively good——

The surrounding area is lined with green trees and lush vegetation, and in the distance is the undulating scenery of Monster Mountain. You can clearly see thick smoke rising quietly into the sky from the top of the mountain.

This is volcanic smoke. It was once a spiritual peak higher than Mount Fuji, so it is also a volcano like Mount Fuji... but it will no longer erupt, so even though the volcanic smoke is emerging, it is slowly rising. , the monsters in the mountains did not show any panic or nervousness.

It seems that they have already become accustomed to this.

"The smoke on the mountain is indeed volcanic smoke, and it is also the smoke of immortality. It is the smoke emitted by Shi Changji, the god who lives on the mountain. It is not a sign that the volcano is about to erupt, so they naturally have nothing to worry about..."

Yakumo Murasaki sat at the edge of the table, gently biting the straw of the drink in her hand. She raised her eyes and looked at the undulating mountains of monsters in the distance. She explained like this: "Ishicho-hime is the sister of Konohana Sakuya-hime. The princess who rules eternal life...that is, the immortal."

"You mean, this Shi Changji is the immortal god?"

Gu Mo nodded thoughtfully and stared at the smoke slowly rising from the crater.

"Of course, but that's what it is said. No one has been able to meet this Shi Changji for so long. Even ghosts and tengu have been living in the mountains for a long time... That's what the legend is. It was Sakuya-hime who competed between the two mountains and crushed Mount Yatsugatake——"

The monster girl turned her eyes, looked at the young man opposite, and said with a smile.

"Because this god couldn't stand the character of his younger sister Sakuya Hime, he voluntarily left Mount Fuji and moved to the shattered Yatsugatake Mountain... Only rumors say so, and I don't know much about the truth or falsehood. Even the ghosts don’t seem to have seen this god on the mountain.”

"It should be true. I can feel the divinity on the mountain, but she probably has no intention of coming out to see anyone. She seems to be trying to repair and restore this spiritual mountain bit by bit." Shenqi sat at the table On the other hand, holding a glass of drink, he pouted and interjected.

This is the deck at the bow of the ship. Gu Mo has set up a big parasol and a table under the umbrella.

The three of them were sitting around the table. Under the scorching sun, they felt as if they were sitting outside some scenic spot or a dessert shop.

Of course, only Gu Mo had such a sense of déjà vu. The other two people had no idea about it, but they just thought it was very leisurely and comfortable.

"It seems like no one is coming..."

Knocking on the table gently, Gu Mo frowned and looked around.

The environment of this canyon is good and the scenery is beautiful. The only problem is that I can't see half a person. I and others have been here for a long time, but no one has come to consult... As promised, I fired the first shot beautifully. What about opening up this market in one fell swoop?

Having said that, isn’t this development not quite right?

"Although there are frequent exchanges of many non-human things here, it has not formed itself... well, it is just like a stable market place as you imagine. Many people simply walk around or come in and out here, such as the ground The monsters want to enter the underground from here, and the monsters from the underground want to come to the surface from here..."

Facing Gu Mo's slightly confused look, the blond monster girl explained.

"Either they went up the mountain to participate in the ghost tribe's banquet, drinking and mingling day and night, or they went directly to the underground world from here, and they didn't know what they were going for... They were not planning to barter in the first place. It comes from the idea of ​​​​things, so naturally no one pays attention to this aspect."

Speaking of this, she smiled slightly:

"Or you can change this situation. Maybe since you came here, a market will slowly appear here... Well, how do you say, come on?"

The monster girl thought about it very seriously and seemed to recall something. Then she blinked one eye at Gu Mo and gently clenched her fist to make a cheering gesture.

--come on.

She didn't know when she learned the buzzwords, but she always seemed to be able to easily understand all kinds of strange new words Gu Mo said, and tried to use them actively.

This sense of dissonance is really subtle...

Gu Mo twitched the corner of his mouth, and at the same time noticed that the silver-haired girl opposite him narrowed his eyes, seeming to look a little unkind.

He sighed and continued the topic: "So I came here to open up the market, but in the end I really have to open up the market myself... Speaking of which, Zi, didn't you say that the Tengu like to spread gossip and spread all kinds of gossip? ? This is somewhat effective, right?"

So this is the entrance and exit of a subway station?

However, the surrounding land is not developed at all, so we have to build and develop the business district from scratch?

He felt a little dizzy.

"This is hard to say..."

Gently opening her fan to cover the lower half of her face, the monster girl curled her lips slightly: "Wenwen must be working very hard to spread your previous statement, but everyone knows what they are about, I guess Few people would be stupid enough to believe what she said..."

"Didn't you see that not only did no other monsters come, but even other Tengu didn't come? This means that even they themselves know what the situation of their own kind is like... Even what Wenwen said, as Even the members of their own race won’t believe it, so don’t count on the propaganda effect of the Tengu.”

"..."

"..."

This is a bit embarrassing.

Gu Mo didn't know what to say. He thought he could take advantage of the Tengu's characteristics. The other party used his information to spread rumors and exaggerate, and he took advantage of their gossip-loving racial characteristics to easily Reputation.

The result was still too idealistic. He didn't expect that the Tengu had already become famous in this area. They had no credibility at all, so much so that even their own clan didn't believe the news they spread... plus this monster Even if the amount of rumor-mongering information in one day is not as amazing as that of later generations, it is estimated that there are not ten but eight.

So no one wants to pay attention to Tengu's propaganda...

Even taking a step back, maybe someone had seen the magic ship coming and was somewhat curious. However, after being publicized by the Tengu, they immediately lost interest. This is not impossible.

"What a shame for media workers..."

He sighed deeply, and then thought: "This won't work, I have to give them a trick."

"What else can this do?" Miss Shenqi also cast her gaze curiously. At the same time, her eyes couldn't help but fixate on Gu Mo's blue star pupils. She suddenly doubted her previous guess. After all, I don't have such a pair of star pupils.

Are they really not of the same race...

Well, no, no, it must be some irresolvable individual differences, just like gender.

"I think the Tengu are still too young. As a journalist, how can we be attractive by just relying on empty words to spread information? Of course we need to improve it..." Gu Mo thought quickly and thought that maybe it could be done. Starting from the advanced tools and advanced ideas of later generations.

Those who work in the media just rely on one mouth to convey information. This is definitely not possible!

Yes, such paparazzi are really unqualified.

"Oh? Then what are you going to do?" Yakumo Zi also looked at him with interest and asked slightly curiously.

"Of course I'm going to sell the Tengu people..." Gu Mo stood up, "As long as everything goes well, I think we should be able to open up the situation. I happen to have what they need here..."

"Is this so? If you are sure, this is fine..."

The monster girl nodded thoughtfully, and looked at the magic ship she was on, her eyes flashing with interest: "But then again, what are you going to exchange with them? And specifically Bringing such a big ship over..."

"The things I want to exchange are actually very simple, such as materials, specialties, or magic knowledge. These are all fine..."

Gu Mo replied calmly.

"And what I plan to exchange are basically these things, but they should be relatively new and fresh to them. At least I think they will be interested... Well, it's like what you are wearing now I think they will also be very interested in these clothes.”

"..."

"..."

Cold scene halo! start up!

The air suddenly became quiet.

Gu Mo looked at the two girls opposite him with some confusion. He didn't know why they suddenly stopped talking, and the atmosphere became a little subtle.

The silver-haired girl bit the straw expressionlessly, as if she was grinding her little tiger teeth.

The blond monster girl also lowered her head and took a sip of the cold drink, feeling a little complicated for no reason. Although she knew that this was nothing and was actually a normal thing, she just felt inexplicably unhappy.

Things that only a few people had before are now the same as everyone else’s…

In short, the mood is slightly complicated.

…………



hateful……

No one believed what he said.

In the evening, the black-winged Crow Tengu girl flew out of the Youkai Mountain in a depressed mood. She looked a little unhappy. She felt that she had obtained a more interesting piece of information today, at least more interesting than the weird information from her fellow tribesmen. .

It seems that the Yamas intend to build a huge hell underground under the monster mountain...

Or perhaps Ibuki-sama was drunk last month and almost carried the Youkai Mountain on his shoulders, planning to move it to another place...

These things are enough to make people's ears go crazy. There is no fun in mediocre information. It is not as good as the flying ship and the mysterious businessman who came today. Come on, this It sounds super cool once you hear it!

Moreover, when he was still spreading the news, he "slightly" processed it based on his own guess, and connected the mysterious man and the famous realm monster together, and "reasonably" guessed whether the friendship between them was pure. Questions like that...

Why doesn’t anyone want to pay attention?

Are they all afraid of death, or do they simply not believe a word they say?

This is the characteristic of Tengu. They generally want to make big news, attract the attention of others, and gain recognition from others, so now they find that they have been working hard all day to spread rumors, and they can't even make a small splash. Shemeiwan Wen Naturally, I feel depressed.

In such a mood, she completed her patrol listlessly and flew around the Monster Mountain.

And in the process, it was inevitable to get close to the deep canyon at the foot of the mountain, and saw the flying ship from a distance.

There were also faint flashes and clicking sounds.

Although there was a long distance, she noticed it immediately, so she lowered her wings out of curiosity and flew over quietly.

On the cliffs on both sides of the canyon, the highest point of the hexagonal stone pillars is the mysterious man I saw earlier. He was wearing moon-white clothes, with black hair and clothes flying in the wind. Standing so high up in the canyon, looking down at the canyon——

He held up a square black box, which made a clicking sound accompanied by flashes of light from time to time.

I don't know what I'm doing.
