————"Please ask for a fortune and go east."
————"Be careful and don't run around randomly to avoid being trampled."
————"The main hall is full. Please come back in ten minutes."
————"Lucky charms, two thousand each, a fair price, no cheating."
Walking through the crowd with a loudspeaker in hand, Zhiyao could hardly remember how many times she had repeated the above content, but helplessly, the number of customers remained unchanged.
The busyness continued like this until almost noon, when the crowd gradually dispersed and Zhiyao finally had a long-awaited chance to catch her breath. She glanced at her two female colleagues, who were also extremely tired.
Xili was better off. She had a regular schedule and just sat on a stool, rubbing her calves and sides, and occasionally pressing her sore neck. As for Gudu, she was completely exhausted. With her chaotic schedule, she lay on the table, looking hollowed out.
Just then.
"Sikong——"
There were energetic shouts coming from not far away. Zhiyao looked over and saw that it was Hinasaki and his sister.
"You must be exhausted, Sikong. Happy New Year."
On the first day of the new year, the face is deep red with peach blossoms, and the mood is warm and full.
"Why don't you come to help me when you know I'm tired?" Zhiyao deliberately said to Shenhong in a bad mood.
Shen Hong didn't take it seriously and continued smiling. "If you come, how much of your salary will you give me?"
"Don't even think about it." Zhiyao rolled her eyes at her. "Go ask Hei Ze for the money yourself."
"Tsk, stingy! I wish you will be haunted by the God of Poverty this year."
"Get lost."
"Happy New Year, Sikong-kun." Zhendong joined in and greeted Zhiyao.
Zhiyao immediately turned to Mafuyu, "Happy New Year, Hinasaki-san...By the way, why did you two come just now?"
"There are so many people here in the morning. How can I talk to you if not at this time?"
at the same time.
"Zhiyao——"
Another energetic shout was heard from not far away. Zhiyao looked over and saw that this time it was Kurosawa Rei, and Aso Yuu who was following beside her.
Unlike Crimson Mando and the other two who were dressed in casual clothes, Lian and Youyu's outfits were perfectly in line with the festive atmosphere. In addition, Lian's appearance and figure were both high-quality human females. For a moment, Zhiyao was fascinated by her and couldn't move his eyes away.
"Don't just stare." Lian reminded him with a hint of dissatisfaction, "How about it, do I look good in a kimono?"
"It looks good, it looks good. Sister Lian is so beautiful." Zhiyao praised quickly, but what he was thinking in his heart was that Wuhui's score would only be higher if she wore this dress.
"Why aren't you wearing the appropriate clothing for the festival?" Lian asked Zhiyao, pointing at Youyu.
"I'm a foreigner. New Year's Day is just an ordinary holiday in my country. The real New Year is still the lunar calendar."
Shenhong looked from Lian to Zhiyao, her confusion evident in her eyes. "When did you and Sister Lian become so familiar with each other?"
"There's no need to report to you." Zhiyao sneered with a sly smile on his face.
"I don't want to know." Shen Hong poked Zhiyao's shoulder hard, then moved very close to her and lowered her voice to a very low voice, "I think you have bad intentions towards Sister Lian, so you kept it a secret."
Zhiyao hit her on the head without saying a word, and then, unwilling to be outdone, Shenhong immediately returned the favor.
Beside them, Mando watched quietly as her sister and Zhiyao played around, her brows and eyes softening.
"Happy New Year, Sister Lian, Brother Aso." Ignoring Shenhong, Zhiyao turned to greet Lian and Youyu.
After the two finished responding, Zhiyao looked to the side and saw that Gudu had come here at some point and was communicating with Shenhong. In contrast, Lian and Youyu were also communicating with Zhendong.
His eyes swept over these people one by one, and at that moment, Zhiyao thought of something.
————The main characters of the first three games are related to each other.
His eyes swept over these people again, and suddenly, Zhiyao began to feel that something was missing. After thinking about it carefully, he suddenly realized it.
————The ones with the surname Tiancang are still missing.
I wonder if they are also in this city. If so, is it possible for them to appear here immediately?
The goddess of luck fulfilled his wish. Just the next second after the idea came into his mind, two girls with short hair down to their necks appeared in the distance, and an adult male followed behind them.
Because these people appeared at such a perfect time, Zhiyao was a little bit unbelieving and rubbed her eyes repeatedly. After confirming that it was not an illusion, her eyes suddenly lit up and she was so excited that her body couldn't control the shaking.
"What's wrong?" Shenhong noticed Zhiyao's abnormality.
"Here I come." Zhiyao looked energetic.
Shenhong was completely confused until she saw her brother Manfuyu, Lian, and Youyu all approaching the young man, and then she gradually came to her senses.
"Sikong, could those two be..." Shenhong looked at the two short-haired girls carefully.
"That's right, it's Tiancang Mio and Tiancang Jian." Zhiyao lowered his voice, unable to suppress the excitement on his face.
After getting the answer, Shenhong grabbed Zhiyao without saying a word and pulled her in that direction. After arriving at the circle, he spoke to Zhendong to join the group chat.
"Brother, may I ask who this is..."
"My friend, Amagura Hotaru." Mafuyu answered, then pointed at Fukuro and introduced the three people with the Amagura surname, "This is my sister, Hinasaki Fukuro."
"Well, nice to meet you." Tiancang Hotaru nodded, "The two with me are my nieces."
"Happy New Year, my name is Amakura Mio." Mio is an outgoing and lively person, and she immediately introduced herself with full energy.
"My name... is Tian Cang Jian... Happy New Year..." Jian is rather reserved and speaks softly.
On the first day of the new year, everyone gathered in this square. Zhiyao looked at everyone present in turn, and for a moment she felt inexplicably dazed, as if everything around her was unreal.
He pinched his lower back hard, and after the pain subsided, these people were still there. Only then did he realize that he was not dreaming.
To be precise, since coming to this world, he saved Hinasaki Mafuyu and changed the fate of Hinasaki Shinku. In his opinion, it was because of him that these two people could stand here intact today.
He could confidently say that this joyful scene was his own achievement, but he did not intend to stop there, as there was still more to do.
He wants Tian Cang Jian to survive, Tian Cang Mio not to lose her important sister, Aso Yuu to avoid the car accident, Kurosawa Rei to stay away from the sleeping house, and Tian Cang Ying to not be killed by Kuze Reika.
There was still much more to do in the coming year, and he was determined to make sure it had a happy ending.
He swore.
Chapter 103: [Heading to Yangyan Mountain]
After the New Year, everyone returned to their own lives, some went to school, and some went to work.
Zhiyao also had some free time again.
Recently, thanks to Xili's assistance, his research progress had been much faster than before. However, the books were full of useless information. He really wanted to find out how to make talismans and how to avoid harm from miasma, but none of them mentioned these things. In this situation, Zhiyao decided to take a longer-term view.
"I'm going to Yangyan Mountain." Zhiyao closed the open book and announced to himself in the air.
As soon as he finished speaking, Wuhui appeared beside him.
"Yangyan Mountain?" Wuhui couldn't help but wonder, "Where is that?"
"It's after the New Year, and the shrine is relatively quiet. I've been working here for so long, so taking a week off shouldn't be a problem." Zhiyao didn't give a direct answer and continued talking to himself.
Wu Hui was speechless and urged, "Tell me where Yangyan Mountain is, dear."
"Can't you take a look yourself?" Zhiyao reminded.
So Wuhui stopped talking, returned to the host's body, and came out again after a while.
"I see. You're going to Mount Higashin."
"It's not Rishang Mountain." Zhiyao corrected, "It's Yangyan Mountain."
"It's Higashin Mountain." Wuhui pretended not to hear, "Because the two mountains are next to each other, puff puff puff."
It was obvious that Wu Hui was deliberately messing with him, so Zhi Yao went along with it. "If you hadn't said it, I really wouldn't have thought about it that way. Now that you've brought it up, I have to go for a stroll on that mountain."
"I think you're courting death." Kirie laughed, "You were so timid when you first entered Himuro's residence."
Zhiyao immediately expressed disdain.
"That was then, and now is now. Haven't you heard that when a man has been away for three days, he should be treated with new eyes?"
As for where the confidence comes from—it’s because I have a guardian spirit, so I can be willful.
Next door, Xili's room, at the door.
"Where is Yangyan Mountain? Tell me quickly." Zhiyao asked Xili.
Xili blinked in confusion.
"do not know."
"How could you not know? Rishang Mountain must know that Yangyan Mountain is next to Rishang Mountain."
After being reminded like this, Xili couldn't help but frown and subconsciously shifted her gaze elsewhere.
Apparently, she was worried about being called there, so Zhiyao hurriedly reminded her, "I'm going alone, I don't plan on asking you to come with me."
Hearing Zhiyao say this, Xili secretly breathed a sigh of relief and shifted her gaze back to Zhiyao's face.
"Why do you suddenly want to go there?"
"To find a way to seal the Yellow Springs Gate."
A significant number of the shrine maidens at Higashiyama were sent from other locations, including Yangyan Mountain, which also served as the location for the Cage-Entering Ceremony. For example, Shiragiku was ordained there before being sent to Higashiyama. Zhiyao thought that such a place might offer some useful information; it would be more reliable than the city library.
When Zhiyao told her the above information, Xili told her the detailed address of Rishang Mountain without saying a word.
"Then I'll be leaving tomorrow. I'll be away for the next week. Please help with the work, even though it's supposed to be my job."
After saying that, Zhiyao waved and said goodbye to Xili, and then when she turned around and was about to leave, Xili called her.
"Be careful on the road." Xili stepped out of the room, stopped in front of Zhiyao, and warned earnestly, "Try not to step into Rishang Mountain unless it is necessary."
"I'm fine." Zhiyao replied calmly with an indifferent look on her face.
"I know you know everything about that mountain, and you even have a guardian spirit living within you, but I still want to advise you to avoid going in unless necessary. Even if you do go in, don't go too deep. It's better to be safe than sorry."
It can be seen that Xili is really worried about herself.
Thinking that this was proof that their relationship had improved, Zhiyao suddenly felt very happy and patted Xili's head gently.
"Don't worry, I will definitely be back safely in a week, please don't worry."
……
The endless azure sky and the warm orange sun hung overhead. It was Zhiyao's first time to encounter such good weather when traveling far away. She felt that this trip was destined to be fruitful.
On his back was a heavy travel backpack.
Apart from daily necessities such as toothbrushes, toothpaste and towels, the rest of the bag is all food.
The reason why she bought so much was because she had to take a train for several hours. Before leaving, Zhiyao wanted to buy some snacks to eat on the train. As a result, when she was shopping, Wuhui said this one was good and that one looked good. It happened that Zhiyao was particularly fond of her, so every time she pointed to something, Zhiyao would pick it up and put it in the shopping cart. Gradually, small amounts accumulated into a lot, and finally the entire travel backpack was full.
"Bought a lot of food." Wuhui sighed in Zhiyao's mind.
"It's all your fault." Zhiyao complained angrily, "There's so much food, I'm afraid we can't finish it in a week."
"Eat slowly, haha, there's no rush."
"It would be nice if we could enjoy it together."
"It doesn't matter. I just want to watch you eat. Just watching you eat makes me happy."
The sweet words caught people off guard. Zhiyao, who was successfully seduced, felt her heart pounding and stopped talking.
At about three o'clock in the afternoon, the train stopped at the scheduled station. After getting off the train, Zhiyao first took out a notepad to look at the address written on it, then asked as he walked, and unknowingly arrived at the small town near the mountain where Rishang was located.
I looked at the time on my watch and it was exactly four o'clock in the afternoon.
Thinking of experiencing the local customs and culture before going to Yangyan Mountain, Zhiyao wandered aimlessly on the street, and began to look for Mihua's antique coffee shop.
But on second thought, I felt like a fool.
Because Mihua is a child now, it is impossible that the cafe was opened twenty years ago, unless she followed in her father's footsteps.
So he changed his goal to meet Mihua from his childhood.
Although he had no idea what Xiao Mihua looked like.
