I loaded the dream game

But now, she has begun to regret the decision she made.

"Who knew... that we would have to climb a mountain..."

Physical strength was the area in which she was least confident. If possible, she would rather go back to the foot of the mountain and stay there instead of running around the mountain like she was now.

"What's more, there isn't actually that much garbage on this mountain..." Xia Zhi muttered softly, breathing slightly.

"Hold on a little longer, this uphill section will soon be over." Beside her, Kong Yinzi was also a little out of breath, her face slightly flushed, but she still cheered herself up and comforted the girl.

In terms of physical fitness, she is actually weaker than Xia Zhi, but because playing chess is a very physically demanding sport, she has good endurance after years of training, which is why she performs slightly better than Xia Zhi.

Even so, after walking this stretch of mountain road, she was a little exhausted. If she hadn't been in front of Xia Zhi, she would have collapsed and sat down to rest.

"Yin Zi, you don't have to come and accompany me..."

Looking at the girl who was dragged into this by him, Xia Zhi felt a little guilty.

"I was originally assigned to this task, I just moved to a different area."

Sora Ginko shook her head, looked at Xia Zhi and asked, "Why did you come here, Xia Zhi? It would be easier for you to stay in your original group, right?"

It's more than relaxing, it's not an exaggeration to say it's like a vacation.

Xia Zhi complained in her heart.

Although she usually likes to slack off and be lazy, but...

"The two are completely different in nature. I don't like the feeling of being unable to help..."

"There's nothing I can do. It's because you, Xia Zhi, are so popular." Kong Yinzi said, shaking her head slightly.

0 ...... ...

Beautiful looks, excellent grades, easy-going and lovely personality... Compared to the "school belle", Xia Zhi's position in school and class is more like a "group pet", and it is normal for her to be taken care of in various things.

"That's why I feel troubled..." Xia Zhi complained softly.

It feels good to be cared for and to be noticed, but if it's too much, it will make her feel very uncomfortable.

When will I be able to learn my brother's ability to easily become a social insulator? Xia Zhi thought with some envy in her heart.

"Natsuori-san..."

Just as she was thinking this, she suddenly heard Kong Yinzi's voice calling her.

"What's wrong?" Xia Zhi looked up at her in confusion.

"There seems to be a shrine ahead." Kong Yinzi retracted his gaze, turned back and suggested to her, "There is still time, do you want to go over and take a rest?"

Hearing this, Xia Zhi was immediately attracted and agreed without hesitation.

She had been wanting to find a place to sit down for a long time.

"But speaking of which, is there such a shrine in the suburbs of Wakaba City? I had no idea about it before."

Arriving in front of the shrine, Xia Zhi couldn't help but sigh at the magnificent-looking shrine in front of him.

Then, her eyes fell on the plaque on the shrine's sign gate. She tilted her head and slowly and softly read the words on it:

"...Moriya Shrine?" Exit.

Chapter 237: Offline meeting with family members?

Xia Zhi thought about it, took out his mobile phone, opened the map and checked it, then entered the name of the shrine on the Internet and searched for it. After confirming that this was a formal shrine with a name, he felt relieved.

"But it looks so deserted..."

It seems that not many people come to worship.

Looking at the deserted shrine where he couldn't see a single person after standing there for a long time, Xia Zhi complained in his heart.

It looks so grand from the outside... Could it be that not many people come here because the gods enshrined inside are not very capable and wishes are not very effective?

"that……"

A strange girl's voice came from behind. Xia Zhi was slightly stunned. She turned around and saw a green-haired girl wearing a sailor's "063" uniform standing behind her. Her clear blue eyes looked at her with a little doubt:

"Excuse me...are you here to pay homage?"

The light and pleasant sound like a clear spring seems to wash away the fatigue and troubles in the heart. Just listening to it makes people feel relaxed physically and mentally...

With such a beautiful voice, it would be a shame if she didn’t debut as an idol.

Xia Zhi couldn't help but think in her heart.

"No... We just came here to find a place to rest."

After all, it wasn't nice to leave someone hanging there. Xia Zhi quickly came to his senses and replied to the girl.

"Really..." The green-haired girl tilted her head and thought for a moment, then shook her head slightly and said, "Forget it, it doesn't matter if it's not... Come with me."

Xia Zhi and Kong Yinzi looked at each other, but followed.

"Um...are you here to pay homage as well?"

Xia Zhi, who was following the green-haired girl half a body length away, asked her curiously.

"No." The girl smiled and replied, "I am the wind priest of Moriya Shrine."

"Eh?"

Xia Zhi was slightly stunned, and her eyes subconsciously fell on the sailor uniform on the other person.

The so-called "Zhu", although also a shrine maiden, has a higher status than ordinary shrine maidens. It is equivalent to the spokesperson of God in the world... This is the knowledge that Xia Zhi learned from other shrines.

Since she's a shrine maiden, she should also wear shrine maiden clothes, right?

Or... is the sailor uniform actually the characteristic of this shrine?

"Ah, you mean this..." Sanae Kofutani glanced at her clothes, smiled sheepishly and said, "I can't help it... It would feel a bit weird to go to the supermarket wearing a miko costume, so I had to change into my school uniform."

That's true. Even though she's a shrine maiden, she still has her own life.

Xia Zhi thought to herself.

"Please wait here for a moment. I'm going to change my clothes and will be back soon." After bringing the two to the lobby of the shrine, Kofutani Sanae turned around and greeted them warmly.

"If you are tired, just sit down and take a rest. You can sit anywhere except the cash box."

"Oh, by the way, the pool on the left is connected to mountain spring water. It's okay to drink it directly. It's very sweet."

It seemed that it had been a long time since she had seen people of her age coming to worship, and the Fengzhu girl seemed very enthusiastic today.

Seeing that the other party was so enthusiastic, Xia Zhi felt embarrassed to say that he was here to get something for free.

After the girl left, she thought for a moment, looked at Kong Yinzi and asked, "Since we're here anyway, why don't we just make a wish?"

Kong Yinzi had no objection to this and nodded in agreement.

Although he was going to pay a visit, it had been several years since he last visited the shrine, and Xia Zhi had almost forgotten the specific procedures.

She thought about it, took out her mobile phone from her pocket, searched the regular worship procedures of the shrine, and followed the tutorial step by step.

First, I went to the sink, picked up a ladle, and washed my hands in the order of left first and right later. Then I scooped some water and put it in the palm of my left hand, and wet my mouth with the water.

Then wash your left hand again, then hold the handle of the spoon upright and let the water flow down to wash the handle and both hands...

"It's so troublesome..."

Xia Zhi complained silently in her heart...

It is no wonder that fewer and fewer people visit the shrine over the years. Who among the young people nowadays would have so much patience to learn this set of movements?

If this process could be simplified to two steps or simply optimized and omitted, I believe more people would come to the shrine to worship, right?

While thinking about this, Xia Zhi came to the shrine's worship hall with a roof that tilted up on both sides.

Looking at the cash box with wooden bars in front of him, Xia Zhi took out a fifty-yen coin from his pocket.

"..."

After hesitating for a moment, she put the coin back into her pocket, changed it for a ten-yen coin, and gently put it into the tuck box.

Kong Yinzi, who witnessed the whole process, said: "..."

After ringing the bell vigorously and bowing deeply, Xia Zhi closed her eyes, clasped her hands together, and made a sincere wish in her heart:

“I hope coriander and salty tofu pudding will disappear from this world…”

Although I don't have high hopes for the effectiveness of this shrine, I'll still make a serious wish. What if it really comes true?

However, Xia Zhi forgot one thing——

The so-called "making a wish" is a process of confession. As the object of the wish, the gods naturally need to know what kind of wish the wisher has made.

In other words, during the process of making a wish, the gods can hear the wishes of the worshippers.

"On the one hand, you have no fear and trust in the gods, but on the other hand, you expect the gods to fulfill your wishes. Don't you think you are a little too greedy?"

A crisp voice came from behind. Xia Zhi was slightly stunned. She turned around and found that a blonde girl had appeared behind her.

"Um, may I ask who you are...?" Xia Zhi tilted his head and asked curiously.

"Suwako." The blonde girl introduced herself with a smile: "Suwako Kameya."

"This is one of the gods enshrined in this shrine."

Chapter 238: The Godly Girl is a Little Concerned

Suwako is in a good mood today.

When you are in a good mood, everything you see looks good to you.

So she decided to go out for a walk after a long absence. If she happened to meet him, she could fulfill someone's wish or bestow a blessing.

Then, she saw two girls who came to "pay homage".

After thinking about it with her head tilted, Suwako walked forward with curiosity, and then heard the wish coming from the black-haired girl's heart:

“I hope coriander and salty tofu pudding will disappear from this world…”

"..."

Really, why do these worshippers like to make wishes that make things difficult for God?

Suwako sighed slightly.

But, well... compared to making the sun explode, this wish is more realistic, right?

As if she was recalling some happy scene, Suwako couldn't help but smile slightly, and her mood became much happier.

After thinking for a while, she walked briskly to the back of the two girls, listened to the "complaints" coming from the black-haired girl's heart, and a faint smile appeared on her face. After coughing lightly, she greeted the two of them...

……

"I am one of the gods worshipped by this shrine."

Faced with the girl's answer, Xia Zhi nodded in understanding.

Ah, that's right.

As if she understood something, Xia Zhi greeted the blonde girl in front of her, "Well, good afternoon, God."

Suwako frowned slightly and looked at her suspiciously: "Don't you believe what I said?"

"No." Xia Zhi tilted his head and said, "Where there is a shrine, there must be a god. This is a matter of course, right?"

Natsuori-san, you don't believe it at all. Looking at the girl next to her who seemed to be coaxing a child, Sora Ginko thought silently in her heart.

"There's no point lying in front of the gods... Besides, the order is completely wrong. The gods came first, then the shrines." Suwako corrected in a calm but serious tone.

"Yes Yes Yes……"

Xia Zhi didn't pay attention to what the girl said. She just thought that the girl who corrected her seriously on such things was very cute.

You really didn't believe what I said, did you?
