Hakurei Shrine on Mount Hakurei. 【Read full text】
The coldest period has passed, the season is heading toward spring, and the snow on the sunny side of Mount Boli has begun to melt. Reimu Hakurei was wearing a warm bearskin cloak, carrying a push board and clearing the remaining snow hiding in the shadows on the stone steps. If this snow is not cleaned up, it will slowly melt and freeze, and then turn into slippery ice... which will fall to pilgrims who come to the shrine to worship.
She hummed softly, cleaning up step by step from the bottom of the mountain up. As long as the remaining snow is pushed to a place where the sun can shine, it will all melt in a few days - these are what the rich man with a bad mouth said.
"It's really troublesome." Hakurei Reimu complained, but in fact, this was the richest and happiest winter she had ever lived - there were no changes to disturb her and she had no worries about food and clothing. As long as the rich man was not around, she could eat whatever she wanted. , sleep when you want, there is no better life than this. The only troublesome time may be when rich people come to pay homage. He always makes a lot of requests...such as repairing the damaged floor of the porch, replacing old royal coins, drying quilts, etc. It's so troublesome! Yes. Even the twelve-year-old Reimu is now starting to make plans.
Should we invite the rich man? Could he not like monsters? Every time he comes here, he always talks about "a miko should be like this...a miko should be like that...". At first glance, he seems to be a super old-fashioned guy.
And the rich man didn’t say that. Will Hakurei Shrine be renovated when spring comes? I'm really looking forward to it...
Hakurei Reimu couldn't help but stand at the top of the stone steps and looked in the direction of the human world. Unfortunately...he didn't see the figure of the rich man.
In fact, Lu Yuan has only been to Hakurei Shrine five times this winter... The second time he just wandered over during a walk, and then saw the scene of Hakurei Shrine on the verge of starving to death again, he really didn't know whether to laugh or cry - the little girl didn't have anything at all Butler experience. As soon as we had rice and food, we ate happily with our friends. In the end, we ate all the food for the winter in just one month... Not only did Lu Yuan bring food, he also taught Reimu Hakurei, who was still a little girl, what to do. Calculate the distribution of food and supplies, lead her to repair roofs and corridors, and lead her to clear snow from dead corners. Teach her to sing the Divine Comedy...ahem, just ignore this.
So now Reimu is no longer the scrawny little girl. She became watery and cute, and even grew several centimeters taller. Moreover, she finally learned how to not starve herself to death.
After cleaning the steps. Reimu Hakurei stretched out her aching body, hugged her bearskin cloak tightly, carried the push board and walked up the clean stone steps. In fact, Reimu Hakurei doesn't need to be like this at all - as the guardian of the Great Barrier of Hakurei in Gensokyo, the Hakurei Miko can use the power of Hakurei at will within the barrier. She can fly back to the shrine at will. Hakurei's power will not make her hungry, but it will definitely ensure that she will not die; it will not make her warm, but it will definitely ensure that she will not be cold...
But now she likes wearing a bearskin cloak, the feeling of being still warm in the wind and snow; she likes the feeling of stamping her feet and complaining after walking up the long stone steps; she likes sitting on the corridor and pretending to beat her body after repairing the damage to the shrine. The feeling on the arm... just like that of a rich man...
"This is a down-to-earth life..." She whispered and imitated the guy's words, feeling happy.
When Hakurei Reimu, who was amusing himself all the way, returned to the shrine through the torii gate, he saw someone lying on the edge of the shrine.
"Guest..." Hakurei Reimu was about to step forward to say hello when he saw the lying girl sitting up. The little girl has light brown straight hair, dark red pupils, and two disproportionately large horns on her head, which are also tied with bow ribbons...
"Also, it turns out to be Suixiang. I thought it was a wealthy guest." Hakurei Reimu complained, putting the push board that was taller than her on the side of the shrine... and putting it on the past, it was definitely thrown away. Thing--Ling Meng has a dark streak when he thinks about this. The rich man is nice and generous in everything, but he is too nagging... It makes people crazy! In order to shut him up... Reimu looked at the push board that he had set up in a daze. What a sacrifice I made!
That little girl, Ibuki Suika staggered up and walked to Reimu, holding out the big red wine gourd in her hand, "Would you like to drink?"
"Don't get me drunk so early!" Hakurei Reimu punched Ibuki Suika on the head and knocked her to the ground. A twelve-year-old girl and a girl who looks seven or eight years old look like the elder sister is lecturing the younger sister.
However, although Ibuki Suika looks like a little girl, she is actually one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Oni clan. She is a ghost that has lived for hundreds of years. She has the ability to gather and disperse things, and amazing strange powers. In terms of combat power, he is not as good as Kazami Yuxiang, but the gap is not big. Ibuki Suika likes to drink very much. She often carries a wine gourd and gets drunk.
"We're not drunk! I don't know who the bastard was, banging on our head for several days... so we didn't sleep at all!" Ibuki Suika complained. At this time in previous years, she could I slept most of the winter!
Ibuki Suika returned to the wooden floor next to the edge and lay down in a place where she could get sunlight... "Hey~. Reimu, call us when you're ready to cook. We also need to take a nap." Without waiting for Hakurei Reimu's reply, The little girl hugged the wine gourd and fell asleep again, with her plain top lifted up. Showing your tender belly...
Ibuki Suika is also one of Hakurei Reimu's friends. She had no choice but to take out the quilt. Cover the little girl and let her continue to sleep well in the sun... If the ghosts don't get enough sleep in winter, they will be grumpy for the entire next year.
It's almost evening. Ibuki Suika woke up to the aroma of food.
"It smells so good~ Reimu, have you prepared something delicious?!"
She sniffed the air and followed the scent into the shrine. When she saw the table that Reimu had set, her mouth watered. Pearly round, steaming rice, green, freshly pickled radish strips. A plate of bacon two fingers wide, and a big bowl of miso soup!
"Wow! Lingmeng, have you made a fortune?!" Seeing the sumptuous dinner, Cuixiang immediately ran into the kitchen and took out two sea bowls, filling the big bowls with wine from the gourd. "The dinner is so rich, let's have a drink! Reimu."
"Because there are devout wealthy people who come to the shrine to worship, these are all donations. They are the reward for my hard work! ...The gods must have seen my efforts!" Hakurei Reimu said with satisfaction.
"A god?" the little girl asked doubtfully, "Speaking of Reimu, who is the god enshrined in Hakurei Shrine?"...
"Besides, don't worry about such trivial matters." Hakurei Reimu waved his hand indifferently and picked up his own white rice.
…
"Ah. I'm satisfied. I actually ate rice, and it's no problem if I don't eat for a few days!" The little girl leaned against the pillar in the corridor and stroked her belly contentedly. "Hey, Reimu, I'll stay with you. Go back. Maybe I will be unable to sleep due to the clanging noise again." Ibuki Suika looked at Hakurei Reimu expectantly.
"Then just stay here..." Hakurei Reimu said noncommittally, "Is this Omi? The rich man is really generous. But he said that the donation is to enable the shrine to survive this winter. Maybe next year There is no more. The important thing is to raise enough money for incense and renovate the shrine in the spring. It is best to keep wealthy believers like that for a lifetime, so that you will never have to worry about having enough to eat..." Bo Reimu also sat on the porch next to Ibuki Suika, looking at the night sky with some longing and said.
"Then in order to still be able to eat rice next year, I will come to help when the shrine is renovated." Ibuki Suika, who was bribed by the dinner, said with her little fists clenched.
"Well, if everyone comes to help, we will definitely save a lot of money for the rich man, right? Go to bed, Cuixiang... Cuixiang?" When Hakurei Reimu turned around, he found that the little girl with brown hair was already hugging his Little belly, contented and fell asleep.
"It's really troublesome..." Reimu Hakurei complained, dragging Ibuki Suika into the room. During the whole process, the little girl fell asleep beautifully and never woke up.
…
When it was almost midnight, Ibuki Suika suddenly got up. She covered her ears and stumbled into Reimu Hakurei's bedroom. "Reimu! Reimu! Dangdangdang is here again!"
"What clang, clang, clang, why didn't I hear it?" Hakurei Reimu said unhappily, rubbing her eyes. Lack of sleep is a woman’s biggest enemy!
"It's all because we ghosts have such good hearing, please listen carefully again!" Ibuki Suika begged, dragging Hakurei Reimu outside.
Hakurei Miko walked to the corridor and listened carefully. In the quiet night, there was indeed a sound of "dang-dang-dang"... but the sound was so soft that it was almost impossible to identify if you didn't listen carefully. Even the night wind blowing in the forest was much louder than this sound.
"Isn't it loud?" Reimu Hakurei said perfunctorily, just wanting to go back to sleep.
"But for us ghost clan, this sound is very loud! And I don't know why, this kind of sound scares us especially! Help me, Reimu, maybe it's a mutation!" Ibuki Suika shook Reimu's the arm begged.
"Okay, let's fly over and try to find it."
