Koizumi's cheek couldn't help but twitch slightly, and he slowly pulled his hand back from the gap.

There was a row of neat teeth marks on Koizumi's right hand, covered in blood, and Koizumi looked as if he wanted to cry but couldn't.

"I opened the gap in the wrong place... and got bitten by a dog..."

Chapter 329 Intelligence (Part 1)

Having finally received the money, Koizumi and the others quietly walked into the store and ordered dishes. While eating the food, Reimu couldn't help showing a complicated look. She had only had a plate of pickles all day long at Hakurei Shrine, and her material life was completely poor. This was also very helpless. Although there was money in the cash box of Hakurei Shrine, it would fall through the cracks as soon as there was money.

Therefore, the cash box always has a minimum guarantee level, and I can only... buy pickles to eat.

Now that she was eating these, Reimu had a more or less complicated feeling in her heart.

Does this mean that eating after death is actually better... hehe...

Reimu could not help but shake her head helplessly and continued to eat the food on the table. She might as well eat more now...

Marisa was also eating here silently without saying anything. At this time, it was better to eat first.

Kiyohime smiled as she served food to Koizumi, and Koizumi could only bear it with a wry smile, saying nothing more. He decided to deal with this girl first. However, while enduring Kiyohime's love, Koizumi also tried to integrate some of the things he heard from passersby along the way... For example, this era, Japan at the end of the 12th century, was still the Kamakura period.

During the Kamakura period, exchanges between Chinese and Japanese monks were very frequent, and it was during this time that a large number of magical monks appeared in Japan. At the same time, due to the rampant power of monsters, many talented Onmyojis also appeared.

As for the leader of the most powerful monster force at this time, it must be the monster sage Yakumo Yukari.

Just as Yakumo Yukari said before, she is really capable in this era... and she caused such a big fuss.

I heard that the Onmyoji and the Magic Monk teamed up to capture the Monster Sage, but the Monster Sage killed them all. All the Onmyoji and the Magic Monk fled wildly, while the Monster Sage himself was not hurt at all... It's really scary.

By the way, Koizumi also learned that there was a fox monster following Yakumo Yukari, which seemed to be a nine-tailed demon fox.

According to the standards of fox demons, the more tails a person has, the stronger he is, and the Nine-Tailed Fox is undoubtedly a great demon.

Tamamonomae, Shuten-doji, and Daitengu are known as the three great youkai of Japan. Tamamonomae is the nine-tailed demon fox, the great youkai that wreaked havoc in Kyoto. Its power was undoubtedly terrifying... Koizumi was certain of this.

However... I didn't expect that Zi actually had a nine-tailed fox shikigami. Being able to make the nine-tailed fox exist as her own shikigami was enough to prove how terrifying the strength of this great monster Zi was. I'm afraid that among the great monsters, Zi's strength is at the top of the list. I have to admit that realm monsters are really blessed...

That's right, it's not that Zi's race is a realm monster, Zi's race is a gap monster, Koizumi just combined her ability into it, Zi has this ability because she is connected to the root, not because this ability is a natural skill.

"So, it's because of the rise of Yakumo Yukari that the youkai are rampant in this era... Is this what they call the fox borrowing the power of the tiger... But I have no idea what this era was like originally..."

Koizumi sighed softly, thinking to himself, "According to Yukari, this was merely a change in the course of events caused by a certain possibility in Gensokyo's history." In that case, the information he'd received merely altered the information of the subsequent era. Without knowing what had happened in this era that had a significant impact on Gensokyo, it was hard for Jeanne Koizumi to say anything...

What surprised Koizumi a little was that even Reimu and Marisa didn't know what was going on at this time.

You two are the city management officers of Gensokyo after all, so can you be of any use...

Koizumi sighed slightly, but didn't say anything. Never mind, the two of them weren't studying history, so why did they ask so many questions? It was just that those who really studied history hadn't come to Chaldea yet. From the "Origin of Gensokyo" that Aqiu gave him, Koizumi also learned about some of the characters in Gensokyo, but he always started by learning about the people he knew.

After finishing the biographies of Remlia and the others, he began to read the biographies of others, among whom was a half-beast named Bai Ze, Kamishiro Huiyin, known as the half-beast of knowledge and history, who possessed the ability to create and erase history.

I have to admit that with this ability, one can understand the current history... This is very useful for correcting singularities. Moreover, Kamishizawa Keiin's combat power is not among the top in Gensokyo, but after becoming a Servant, her ability allows her to have an extremely terrifying effect in dealing with Servants.

After all, the existence of heroes is maintained by the so-called history, and the power of heroes is determined by the glory of history. She has the ability to create and erase history. Even if she cannot erase the existence of heroes, she can reduce the popularity of the other party and cause the opponent's strength to be greatly weakened, and then maximize her own combat effectiveness.

From this point on, it is really a BUG...

"Are you thinking about what you heard on the road?" Reimu cast her eyes towards Koizumi, a hint of curiosity appearing on her face. It wasn't like she knew nothing. Compared to the previous Reimu, this Reimu was responsible to the end.

Since we have decided to correct the singularity, we will definitely not be careless in the slightest.

"Hmm... What major events happened during the Kamakura period? Don't you know anything about it?"

Koizumi still asked Reimu beside him, although he thought it was still useless.

"I do know some major events in Gensokyo's past, like the first Lunar War initiated by Murasaki and Suika, but I vaguely remember it wasn't around this time... If I remember correctly, it should have been a hundred or two hundred years ago. At that time, Murasaki launched the Lunar War to eliminate the monsters who disagreed with her creation of Gensokyo. Although she was severely tricked by Yaguru Eirin and almost left on the moon, she also used this opportunity to wipe out all the monsters who disobeyed her..."

Reimu muttered to herself. She was quite clear about some things in Yukari's past. After all, she had also experienced the Second Lunar War, so she knew more or less about the first one. It was just that everyone knew it tacitly. Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures. Reimu had no opinion on this.

It's all in the past, there's no point in holding on to it.

Koizumi's eyes suddenly lit up. Oh my god! Yakumo Yukari once even reached the moon. You're incredible! But it seems this is Yukari's dark history. A dignified youkai sage was actually tricked by someone else!

Chapter 330 Intelligence (Part 2)

"Since you said it was the first time, then there should be a second time... Are the Moon People very strong in combat?"

A hint of curiosity crossed Koizumi's face. They were eating anyway, so a little chat would be fine.

As for intelligence, there's no need to rush. It's not like there are so few people here that it's hard to find...

In response to Koizumi's question, Reimu nodded silently. The Moon's combat power was not something to be underestimated.

Back then, the four of them, Marisa, Sakuya Izayoi, and Remlia, had fought their way to the moon, but were all defeated by one of Eirin's disciples... Her disciple, Watatsuki Yorihime, was truly formidable...

Moreover, Watatsuki Yoshihime's sister Watatsuki Toyohime has never fought with herself yet... It seems that Watatsuki Toyohime's ability is also very scary. Although it is only the ability of mobility, this ability is extremely troublesome.

And this does not mean that Watatsuki Toyohime does not have any offensive moves, after all, she has never fought.

"Back then, I went to the moon with that vampire, Marisa, and the vampire maid. We were defeated in a round-the-clock battle... Watatsuki Norihime, the disciple of Yagi Eirin, the Moon Messenger of the Moon, is undoubtedly as powerful as Yakumo Yukari in Gensokyo. Her ability of divine possession alone is enough to take down a group of people. Moreover, Watatsuki Norihime's divine possession can also possess Amaterasu Omikami. The level of this ability itself is not low."

Rolling her eyes at Koizumi, Reimu slowly spoke, "Of course, she hadn't had the slightest desire to fight back then."

After all, my position is that of the invader. From this perspective, I am basically the villain who is being defeated by the protagonist... So there is no doubt that in the face of such an invasion, there is no need for me to continue fighting...

However, as Reimu, who was also capable of divine possession, she saw how powerful the other party's abilities were.

According to the level of the gods possessed, the number of gods that can be possessed is also limited. Watatsuki Yorihime is connected to Amaterasu Omikami, one of the three pillars of heaven, the most core gods in Japanese mythology. Based on this point alone, her level is not low!

"Being possessed by a divine spirit is really an ability that people look forward to..." So logically speaking, if I summoned Mianyue Yiji, wouldn't I be able to use Mianyue Yiji's abilities?

Reimu glanced at Koizumi briefly, and could roughly guess what he was thinking, but...

It would probably take some time to summon Watatsuki Yoshihime and Watatsuki Toyohime, and the Moon People's attitude towards the people on the earth is indeed not very good. Of course, Watatsuki Yoshihime and Watatsuki Toyohime's rejection of the people on the earth is not that exaggerated. Even Yagi Eirin's attitude towards the people on the earth is not the same as before because he has stayed on the earth for a long time.

Watatsuki Yorihime and Watatsuki Toyohime often come to Gensokyo from the Moon Capital without permission, and they're well aware of how they interact with the people on Earth, so they probably won't be too averse to Koizumi...

But then again, if it weren't for the fact that he didn't have this ability when he turned into a Servant, Koizumi would probably have this ability too.

But to be honest, even if I have this ability, it is useless. The level of my skill is not as high as Mian Yue Yiji's, so compared to getting my own, it is better to get Mian Yue Yiji's.

In the past, he practiced under Zi's guidance, but the method was different from the general spirit descent. After meeting Mian Yue Yiji, he realized that his appearance seemed more like her. Because of this incident, Mian Yue Yiji was almost misunderstood. After all, the spirit possession of an earthling is very similar to the other person's, which of course makes it easy for people to misunderstand that it was taught by the other person.

"Oh, by the way, let me tell you in advance that the Moon People hold an attitude of contempt and even disdain towards the people on Earth. There are only a few special ones. Although Mianyue Yiji is a little arrogant, she still holds an equal attitude towards the people on Earth. Mianyue Yiji's sister Mianyue Fengji is also more peaceful than Mianyue Yiji. These two are completely abnormal from the perspective of the Moon People... In the future, if you summon Moon People, if it's not these people, you'd better be careful when dealing with them, especially that guy with an extremely strong poisonous milk ability... I think her name is Rare Detective Girl..."

"That guy is even more of a Moon People than the Moon People..."

At this point, Reimu concluded that it was a complete waste of time to talk to Koizumi about so many things beyond the current topic.

Look, Reimu drank a cup of tea silently, and her mouth was no longer so thirsty...

"Okay, after all this talk, it's nothing to do with the real business. Let's put aside the Moon People for now. It shouldn't be them this time. Those undead spirits before were very abnormal. What are the people in Gensokyo who could be related to the undead?"

Koizumi felt that it would be better to start from this aspect.

Those undead spirits and that dead energy are indeed a bit too abnormal...

"Well... apart from Hell and the Underworld, there's nothing else, but..."

Having said that, Reimu paused for a moment, her brows slightly furrowed, as if she had thought of something.

"But?" Gu Quan was slightly startled. Is there something he can't say?

"Speaking of controlling the undead, there's indeed someone closely connected to the aura of death... a human who has an exceptionally close relationship with Yukari, considered a close friend by her and seemingly known to her in life... who, after death, became a foodie ghost... Her name is... Saigyouji... Yukari..."

Koizumi was slightly startled. Zi's best friend! This identity alone couldn't be ignored, okay?

Zi is a monster sage after all, and the existence that she recognizes as a close friend must be extremely dazzling.

For Yukari, as a monster, she is accustomed to the ugliness of the human soul. On the contrary, it is so rare to be recognized by Yukari, and this person is a human being... This alone is very rare, so this person named Saigyouji Yuyuko must have touched Yakumo Yukari in some way.

Otherwise, with Yukari's personality, once she dislikes a certain race, she would most likely kill a whole bunch of people with one stick. At least it would be very difficult for her to like someone from that race. But after entering Gensokyo, Yukari didn't dislike humans to that extent. After all, Marisa was also human, and Yakumo Yukari and Marisa could get along well...

Yakumo Yukari once said that she hated humans immensely in this era, so this time should be...

It seemed that Reimu had also thought of this, and her eyes immediately met Koizumi's.

"At this moment... doesn't Zi know that foodie ghost yet..."

Chapter 331 Charitable Acts

Having set their goals, Gu Quan and his companions continued to search for the town. Of course, the people in the village might be able to help them, but according to Gu Quan's guess, it would be difficult for these people in the village to get some useful information.

Furthermore, along the way, Koizumi and the others discovered some anomalies in this era...

Plagues broke out everywhere, and famine spread everywhere. Basically, many people died in most villages because of these things.

During this journey, Koizumi felt a little depressed. It was difficult for him to help, after all, he was not a doctor.

As for the famine problem, Koizumi himself doesn't have much money, but...he'll help in any way he can.

After all, if he didn't help, Koizumi would be filled with guilt.

So, Reimu and Marisa bought a lot of food and delivered it to Koizumi and Kiyohime.

Then Gu Quan distributed all the food in his hand to the people in this village. Seeing them like this, they couldn't even take care of food, so how could they get any useful information? It's better to just treat it as charity today and not think too much about it.

After all, doing charity work can also help you accumulate some merits, right? It's a rare opportunity to do good deeds.

"Is it delicious?" Gu Quan approached a little girl who was drinking porridge with an unusually gentle smile on his face.

The little girl nodded quickly with a grateful smile on her face. She was really grateful to this benefactor.

He was clearly a stranger, yet he was so generous in giving his group so much food...

Not only her, but the entire village was very grateful, especially the village chief.

Gu Quan looked at the barren land and couldn't help but feel puzzled. Is there such an exaggerated famine at this time?

The land has been barren for years without any harvest, and the scale of the famine is really exaggerated.

There were even plagues in other villages. I heard this from people in this village.

They said it was a good thing the plague didn't spread here, otherwise they would have died by now.

"Survival is really hard..." Reimu couldn't help but sigh as she watched this scene.

I thought life at Hakurei Shrine was hard enough, but I didn't expect the people here live even harder.

To a certain extent, Reimu couldn't help but feel a little emotional. The contrast was really obvious.

But now is not the time to talk so much, let's go get some more food...

It is obvious that the people in this village have not eaten for a long time. Although everything will return to normal after the singularity is resolved, Reimu is clear about one thing. If she sees this happening and does not help, it is really not in line with her personality. Not only herself, but Marisa also has the same idea.

However, it was useless for them to have such thoughts. They still had to listen to Koizumi in everything. Fortunately, Koizumi also had such thoughts.

If I do nothing just because the singularity will automatically repair itself, then that goes against my nature.

So in the previous singularity, Koizumi did the same thing. Even though the singularity would be repaired, Koizumi still chose to save Celia and Kurome. This is in line with Koizumi's personality, so Koizumi did not stop Reimu and Marisa.

After all, there was no reason to stop him, right? Koizumi had originally planned to stay in this village for a while.

Let's solve the famine problem in this village first, and Koizumi can also take this opportunity to use his interstitial ability to get more money... I have to admit that Marisa's idea is really good, at least Koizumi is not short of money now.

Anyway, those rich people have too much money and it’s just sitting there, so why not use it for yourself?

By the way, up to now, Koizumi has only plundered the money of a wealthy family, and his target has not changed.

I have to admit that the family was unlucky to be targeted by me. Anyway, Koizumi thought they were quite wealthy.

So Koizumi kept his eye on the other party. Of course, Koizumi knew to leave a little room for maneuver and didn't take so much at once. He knew the meaning of "enough is enough" and therefore didn't go too far.

Furthermore, as he continued to use the gaps, Koizumi's control over them became better and better.

The inability to teleport people has always been Koizumi's weakness, and he's always felt it was a pity, but...

Well, actually, I still can't teleport people right now. This interstitial ability of Koizumi has not yet been improved to that level.

But I am already increasingly able to grasp the location of the gap on the other side.

For example, the first time he did it, he was bitten by a dog. While it was purely accidental, it actually proved that his control over the gap wasn't that strong yet. Now, Koizumi can stabilize the gap's opening point. As long as he can do this, teleporting people shouldn't be a problem in the future...

Koizumi was very confident in his abilities. As long as he could resolve his gap problem, it would be easier for him to do many things sooner or later, and he would also have an easier way to escape from the battlefield.

At least if something unexpected happens in future battles, I will at least have a way to retreat, right?

"Darling..." Qingji, who had distributed the food, hurried over with a big smile on her face.

Qingji expressed her happiness at being able to do something for her darling.

In response to this, Gu Quan could only say that since she was willing, then let her do it, since she had nothing to do anyway.

It's better than just standing by and watching... so Koizumi simply gave Kiyohime a task.

Then I just sat here and started chatting with these little girls. I was bored anyway...

"How's it going? Has the food been distributed?" Koizumi turned his eyes to Kiyohime.
