People in hell, boss four seasons

"However, it's hard not to care about that weird situation."

He has experienced as wide as the four seasons, but in the past two years, he has seen many things beyond his understanding, such as undead people who cannot detect life forms, blasphemous beasts made of pure malice, or strange gods that can coexist good and evil. Even the closest god of death is quite incomprehensible.

Should I say it or not, since I came into contact with Wen Yao, there are more and more strange people around me.

Four Seasons shook his head and ruled out these irrelevant things, now it is more important to find a reliable god.

The aura of the gods is particularly obvious in the world dominated by mortals. After a little perception of the four seasons, he decided to walk in the direction of a more dense divinity.

Hope to get the answer you want.

Chapter 3: Shrines and Gods

"So it's just a place like a shrine?"

In the world at the turn of spring and summer, the plum blossoms on the mountain have withered, and the dry branches are missing a touch of pink, which looks a bit monotonous.

The tall torii is dignified and dignified, with red satin hanging from the eaves, and eye-catching red lanterns. Because it is daytime, these lanterns are now just useless decorations, and they will probably only be lit at night or during festivals. when.

There are not many people who come to worship the gods in this season. From the bottom of the mountain through the sparse crowd, along the repaired steps to the mountainside where the shrine is located, the elderly or mothers with children account for the vast majority of the crowd.

For ordinary people who believe in science, worshiping at the shrine is more for psychological comfort. In the shrine surrounded by fireworks, the maidens walking around are responsible for receiving the pilgrims who enter. This is the shrine of the god of learning, and most of the prayers are related to exams or promotions.

"However, can we really meet gods here?"

Four Seasons continued to go deeper into the shrine. In the magnificent room was a stone statue of the God of Learning. The name of the god, Sugawara Michizane, was quite neatly engraved below. The red and white priestess costume was quite familiar, but compared with the Hakurei priestess costume, the white part of the priestess costume here took up more space, only the corners were matched with bright red.

Elderly people will choose to kneel down in front of the stone statue for three rounds, expressing their pious vision, while children are more free to come here. In the words of the witch here, the god of learning does not want children to be filled with knowledge and play appropriately. necessary.

The prayers will converge into eye-catching light spots in the air, and finally submerge into the statue, but ordinary people cannot see such a scene.

Walking out of the hall, the shrine on the mountainside had thick fog at some point. Turning around, the statue that was close at hand just now was out of reach at this moment, and there were no longer crowds of people around. It seemed that everything just now was just an illusion.

The prayers chanted by the old people still echoed in my ears, but my body seemed to be in a dream.

"Who's visiting—"

The ethereal female voice echoed in the empty shrine. On the eaves, under the torii gate, and inside the shrine, several blurred figures flashed. With the sound of metal knocking, the fog cleared, and the dry branches were submerged in plum blossoms in an instant. The witches gathered on both sides of the statue, and a figure loomed out of it.

Wearing an ancient hat on top of the head, black and red robes with wide cuffs, holding a golden pipe in hand, every gesture is like a god.

The god of learning usually appears as an old man, which is a symbol of profound knowledge.

It's just that there is such a ostentation in the coming of the gods, Siji raised his eyebrows, and regretted not wearing his Yan Mo uniform, which would make him appear a little contemptuous.

"Unknown god, why did you come to the old shrine?"

The old man's kind face, with a gray mustache on his chin fluttering in the breeze, is a god he has never seen in the records, but the divinity revealed by Siji is not fake.

"I'm not a god, I'm Yan Mo Siji Yingji."

Four Seasons doesn't want to reveal too much information about her own origin to the other party. About the attitude of the gods in this world towards outsiders, Four Seasons will not know for a while, but only about Yan Mo's identity, which must not be confused by the concept of gods, which is why she has repeatedly emphasized.

"Yan Mo?"

The God of Knowledge smiled.

"You don't need to be too cautious. I think I already know your origin. Only things that have appeared in this world, there is no possibility that I don't know them. The so-called Yama, that is, the manager and judge of hell. I still remember the time when I had a drink with the goddess Hecatia. The knowledge I had never heard of was enough to open my eyes."

This is true.

Yan Mo quietly used his power, and the other party did have a very close connection with Hecateia.

"Goddess Hecatia did mention to me that someone will return to this world in the future, it may be her, or it may be someone else, and now it seems that it is you, Miss Four Seasons."

"In fact, there are three other people who came to this world with me, but some accidents happened on the way. We were attacked in the void passage, and my partner and I are still separated."

It's just one of those things.

"However, Lord Hecateia told me that the Yellow Spring here may be suffering from an unknown will, which is one of the reasons why we came here."

Sakura's matter should have nothing to do with the god in front of her, and Shiki doesn't intend to trouble her with such trivial matters. After all, the god of knowledge should be very busy just because of his name.

"Has Huang Quan's problem become so serious?"

The old man seemed to be distressed too.

"Since Izanami-sama escaped into it, there has been no news. We once thought that the lord had solved the problem of Huangquan."

He couldn't blame the god in front of him for being slow. Huang Quan had indeed had a normal period for quite a long time in the past few hundred years, which was also the reason why the gods were slack.

"The problem of demons has only resurfaced in the past few years, but the attitude of the heavens towards this is really confusing."

Regarding the practices of those gods, the God of Knowledge has always had doubts.

"We haven't discussed a reliable proposal yet. At present, we can only maintain the status quo with our subordinates and artifacts, so as to ensure that the problem of demons will not be seen by most people in this world."

However, as long as the problem of the underworld is not resolved for a day, the problem of demons will become so serious that it will be discovered sooner or later by the world. The "time change" in some areas has reached the point where it threatens passers-by. More terrifying monsters will be born.

"Miss Four Seasons, the way you want to enter the underworld, even as a god, I don't have the authority to open the channel. This is a job that needs professionals to complete."

The fog gradually dissipated, and in the next second, when the girl's consciousness returned to her body, the flow of people coming and going from the shrine came into view again.

This nostalgic smell of fireworks.

"Miss, you have been standing here for nearly half an hour. Is there anything we can do for you?"

The young miko asked gently about Shiji's request. After all, it was a bit weird to stay in front of the statue all the time. If this continued, there might be some urban legend that would be detrimental to the shrine. Miss Miko didn't want to lose this precious job.

"Well, it's all right, I think I've got the answer I wanted to know."

After saying a word without beginning or end, Shiki smiled at the priestess, then turned and left the shrine.

This world is really interesting.

Chapter 361 The Unknowable Underworld

The clear sky is not as calm as it appears on the surface.

The phenomenon of "temporalization" is spreading, and there are many monsters floating in the air that ordinary people cannot observe. They live on human beings, wandering in the gaps between the crowd, waiting for an opportunity to confuse those disturbed by negative thoughts to make more radical actions. Behavior.

They grow under the influence of negative emotions, grow under the influence of obsession, and finally reach the point where they need gods or warlocks to solve them.

"Yeah, yay, many of the customers in the bookstore are troubled by monsters, but the old lady is a very good person, she is willing to listen to those not good stories, and propose solutions for them, those monsters will be vicious staring at the old woman, and finally can only disappear in the air."

The negative emotions that demons rely on to survive dissipate, and those unformed demons parasitic on their hosts can only usher in the fate of dissipating. This is also the reason why demons in this world need to confuse people to create negative emotions.

At the dining table, Sakura was fiddling with her chopsticks and chirping about her trivial matters in the bookstore. The girl's voice was very gentle, so no one would find it noisy.

"Sakura can see the world that I can't see, it's great."

Ah Qiu brought the last pot of vegetables to the dining table, untied the apron on his body, and sat down opposite Sakura.

"To be honest, it's better for Ah Qiu not to see those monsters. They are ugly and disgusting, and they will cause a lot of trouble. I will protect you."

Sakura casually wiped her mouth with her hand, and then wiped the stain on the napkin that was within reach under the stern gaze of the four seasons, so it is actually a very troublesome thing to bring a child.

Theoretically, an artifact without an owner is quite fragile, and may even be at risk of becoming a demon at any time, but Sakura's current situation is different from ordinary artifacts. After being washed by the breath of hell, the energy she can use has reached a level of complete self-sufficiency. This should be the only one among the artifacts.

"Sister Yingji, did you gain anything today?"

It is very easy to guess that the four seasons have been out of the house. As long as you see the shoes at the door that are no longer in the same order as when you left, it can probably be used as evidence for the judgment.

Yan Mo's self-discipline does not seem to have been brought to the new world. Siji Yingji will also give up some unnecessary rules in the substantial material world. There are rules of life in this world. This is not Gensokyo, nor is it right and wrong.

"I met a very interesting god, who gave me some good advice, and seems to be an old friend of Goddess Hecatia."

Four Seasons counts each other's identities in detail.

"The god of knowledge in this world is probably our reliable ally, but even so, I will personally ask questions about Huang Quan."

The sight of the gods can no longer be projected to Huangquan, and the outside world has no way of knowing what happened in it.

"The vision of the God of Knowledge is limited to the things he can touch, and Huang Quan today is indeed beyond the scope of his understanding."

Four Seasons has a very clear understanding of this.

"Speaking of which, today there is a very strange big sister who is clearly a human being, but can see through my identity."

Sakura looked puzzled.

"She seems to really want me to do it... yes! Yato, the artifact of the God of Yato, but after seeing Ahqiu, she somehow gave up."

It is quite strange for human beings to be able to see the essence of artifacts, and that Yato God, Sakura is even more unheard of.

"It feels like some unknown gods."

Ah Qiu guessed.

"But that big sister is actually quite nice. The shopkeeper's mother-in-law said that she is a customer who often visits the bookstore, and she is the kind who has both good character and learning."

"Well, I probably know who you are talking about."

The middle school girl is probably the only one involved with the god known as "Yato", and the purpose of searching for the artifact is self-evident.

"The gods here can only show their full strength when they hold the divine weapon. Some strange things happened to the big sister you are talking about, and the trouble that needs to be solved by the night fighting god holding the divine weapon."

It is not uncommon for the soul to be separated from the body, and the present world and the beyond to be blurred. Such cases are not uncommon. Excessive fright or fear can lead to such a situation. People with weak or negative physiques are also prone to accidents where the soul leaves the body.

"Eh? Sister Yingji also knows Sister Rihe?"

As if he didn't expect that Siji would meet the girl who entered the bookstore, Aqiu showed curiosity.

"Well, it was the unreliable god and girl I met that night. I still have a pretty good impression of that little girl."

Yan Mo will not have much ill feeling towards pure souls.

"Then why doesn't Sister Yingji help a group of Sister Rihe?"

Sakura remembers that the girls mentioned in the four seasons seem to have a problem with losing their souls, which should be the range that Yan Mo is good at.

"Sakura, there are many things that we, as outsiders, cannot change."

Although not as good as the vampire lord in Gensokyo, Yan Mo can still see a corner of fate. The fate of the girl is entangled with that weird god. If he forcibly intervenes and breaks the bond between the two, it is hard to say what changes will happen in the future.

There was gray mist floating in the sky outside the window, and the flashing red lights at the junction of the railway and the road in the distance were particularly eye-catching.

The ear-piercing whistle sounded, which was the precursor of "time change".

Chapter 362 Retirement is an Alternative

Yiqiri and recently are very distressed.

Since saving the sloppy god from an accident, her daily life has gradually become strange.

First, he became depressed from time to time, which led to drowsiness. His soul would often leave his body, and he saw some disgusting and weird monsters or dead spirits.

The only gratifying thing is that I met a very powerful green-haired girl who seemed to be a god.

The girl recalled the scene where Siji rescued herself that night, and felt that it was just a slap of the token, and the huge monster chasing her before was easily turned into nothing.

"It's a pity that I didn't ask the god's name and contact method, otherwise I might ask her for help. This useless god is really useless!"

The girl murmured distressedly, Yato was arguing with his former artifact "Accompaniment", oh no, now it should be called a "truth". Even though he has changed his master, the contradiction between the god and the artifact is still quite sharp, and probably can only be explained by compatibility.

"What is Hiyori talking about?"

The boy was wearing a fluffy hat presented by Hiyori, and his body was wrapped in thick clothes. The cold spring has not gone far. The cold weather of the past two days shows signs of counterattack. This is probably the same state as the "autumn tiger" as the folk saying goes.

"Nothing, just wondering when Yato will help me stabilize the link between my soul and my body."

The artifact is connected with the gods, so it's better not to say anything bad about the other party.

"Okay, this is the way."

Zhenyu brought several people to the intersection of the gateway.

"Time-changing phenomena often occur in this area during this period, especially the painted horses that were hung on the notice boards before. After our investigation, we found that two people have already been on this road in just one week."

The long sound of the train came from the distance on the track, and another train sped past.

"People who are obsessed with ghosts are easily tricked into making some unconscious decisions, and the frequent temporal changes are really worrying."

Human resentment and obsession can nourish the formed monsters, not to mention that in such an accident-prone area, once the monsters become a climate, it will take more effort to eradicate them.

"Then Miss Zhenyu, haven't you thought about getting rid of these monsters?"

Hiyori was a little puzzled, why did he need to find other gods to do this kind of thing.

"Adults are in charge of knowledge, and fighting is an absolute weakness for us."

The strength and bias of the artifact depend on the god itself, which is why "accompanying sound" is good at fighting but "true metaphor" needs help.
