"Silly children also have the advantage of being stupid." Hu Tao nodded matter-of-factly.
Jiang Bai chuckled, "Fortunately, Yi Dou is not here, otherwise I would have jumped when I heard this."
"Even if he were here, I would say the same thing." Hu Tao inserted her waist, looking like she didn't bother to say bad things behind her back.
Hu Tao patted him on the shoulder: "Come on, even though it's just a simple repair, it's still a big project."
Not only was the roof of this shrine damaged, some of the beams and columns were moldy and rotten due to rainwater leakage, and there was a risk of collapse at any time.
Without materials, there was no way to make major repairs, so Jiang Bai could only use rocks to simply rest.
It’s evening after a busy day.
Compared with the dilapidated shrine I saw at the beginning, the current shrine looks much better, at least it won't leak anymore.
Yidou played with the cats for a day, and several of them were too tired to move, but he himself was full of energy and not tired at all.
In the evening Jiang Bai continued to grill fish.
It's just that this fish was not caught by A Chou, but by Feng Zi.
Hutao wiped Suzi's wet hair and asked while wiping:
"Bezi, do you know how to get to Tianyun Pass?"
"Tianyun Pass? It's so dangerous over there. What are you doing there?"
"I feel like it's very unusual there, and I want to go and have a look."
"Meow, let me think about it..."
Suzi thought hard for a while and finally came up with a solution.
If the thunderstorm stops, it should be over, right?
But how do you stop thunderstorms?
I thought about it, thought about it, and finally found the relevant content in my memory.
"I remember that there are four big rocks on the island. A Xiang said they were used to seal a very big bird..."
"What a big bird? It looks like it's a thunderbird."
If the seal is repaired, maybe the thunderstorm can be sealed again.
"Do you know where these big rocks are?"
"The slave family knows one."
Hutao wrote down the location that Fuzi mentioned and planned to go find it after repairing the shrine.
"If the thunderstorm can stop after the seal is repaired, I will ask people from Narukami Taisha Shrine to renovate the shrine for you."
Inazuma-owned shrines managed by Narukami Taisha Shrine are naturally responsible for the repair work.
A sudden thunderstorm occurred in Qinglai Island, and the only priest in the shrine disappeared. The Qianlai Shrine was already in a semi-abandoned state.
The thunderstorm destroyed Favor Island, and most of the surviving residents on the island were evacuated.
Naturally, this deserted shrine has no value in maintaining it.
But it's different now.
There are cats in the shrine.
It speaks verbally, has opened its spiritual wisdom, maintains the existence of the shrine, and proclaims itself the acting palace minister.
If Yae Shenzi knew about such a thing, he would not ignore it.
The next day, Jiang Bai and Hu Tao took out the books in the shrine to dry.
These books have been stored for a long time and have not been well protected. Some of them have been eaten by insects, so you need to be very careful when handling them.
Fenzi was illiterate and didn't know the value of these books.
These books, like most of the things in the shrine, have never been touched since Axiang left.
Jiang Bai tried to find some books about the seal on the island.
Everything Suzi knows is what he heard from the palace minister Axiang. His knowledge is very limited. If he wants more comprehensive information, he still has to find it himself.
The contents of the seal have not been found, but a diary has been found.
This is written by the Axiang whom I was talking about.
Her name is Asara Hibiki, and she grew up at Asara Shrine.
When she was a young girl, she went to Narukami Island to learn archery and met a man there.
As a girl, she was dull and stubborn, duplicitous but unable to speak frankly.
She had a mutual affection for the Tengu disciples, but she never revealed it.
But when he gets older, the person he once loved has already married.
They maintained an ambiguous relationship, and their hazy marriage was too vague to form a line.
Later, dark filth swept across the land.
Her beloved goes to the front lines to fight against the dark pollution.
They all know that this time there will be no life.
Before leaving, he set up a bet with her.
Use his beloved bow as a bet, betting that he will come back here alive.
He handed his bow to Asara Hibiki.
The dark pollution gradually ended, Huzhai Palace left, and her lover never came back.
However, if the story had ended here, it might have come to an end.
One day, they met in the forest.
The beloved is back again, but no longer in human form.
He has been eroded and twisted into a dark monster. However, he still became a trace of reason and obsession, and came here to complete the decision deep in his will.
With tears in her eyes, she drew her bow.
Glimmering arrows pierced his body.
She killed her lover with her own hands.
After that, she returned to Qinglai Island and became the palace minister of Qianlai Shrine.
The sadness has been buried in my heart, but the memories are like a rolling wave that never stops.
On the island, there was a boy.
She watched him grow up.
The young man is unruly and unruly, just like the one he once loved.
She thought that if he came back, their child would be this old.
Later, the boy became a famous pirate, triggering a campaign by the shogunate.
The shogunate's fleet surrounded and suppressed the pirates, chasing them all the way to Qinglai Island.
She boarded the pirate's ship, and the grown-up boy looked more and more like her former lover.
She didn't want the boy to die here.
She wanted him to win this bet.
So, she made a crazy decision that went against her duties as a miko.
What Qian Laixiang wanted to do specifically was not written in the diary, but Jiang Bai had already guessed it.
Nothing comes out of the blue like thunderstorms on this island.
The once-sealed thunderbird was its source, and once the seal was destroyed, the once-raging thunder naturally reappeared.
Jiang Bai didn't know how to evaluate Qian Laixiang's behavior.
He thought this miko had gone crazy.
He was already crazy when he killed his lover with his own hands.
In order to save the boy who looked like her lover, she unlocked the seal on the island, completely ignoring the consequences of the thunderstorm.
The originally peaceful and peaceful Qinglai Island became a desert because of her madness.
Purple thunder and lightning filled the earth, and everything it passed was bleak and desolate.
It is not known whether the boy survived, but too many shogunate soldiers and island residents died in the thunderstorm.
Jiang Bai's eyes fell on the last sentence in the diary.
This may be the only pure land in Qian Laixiang's heart.
[Bedoko, you must hide in the shrine. 】
However, Suzi escaped the thunderstorm, but entered into endless waiting.
She didn't think about what would happen to Fuzi after she left, nor did she think about whether Fuzi would be safe under the raging thunderstorm.
She only knew that she wanted to save the boy.
Jiang Bai felt that Qian Lai Xiang was not worthy of sleeping for hundreds of years.
Alas, Jiang Bai’s perspective is not easy to contain private goods, but I really want to say: I hate Qianlai Xiang so much!
Don't tell me that there is a reason for her behavior. Who the hell doesn't have a reason?
Thanks to her being a witch who was personally taught by Hu Zhai Palace, do the residents of the island owe her anything? Want to be buried with him?
She was especially sorry for Maomao!
Not worthy of the affection of a cat at all! !
