"Master Xi? She is so gentle..."
However, almost all monsters gave similar answers, and their impressions of Miko Xi were very unified.
Beautiful, gentle, considerate, understanding...all the monsters praised Xi, and even now many monsters are unwilling to believe that it is Xikeng.
"There must be some misunderstanding! What kind of bad intentions can a beautiful girl have? How could Master Xi be so kind...I don't believe it, I don't believe it, I don't believe it!"
A certain blood girl was almost scared to pee by the majestic holy light and the power of the sun on He Dan, but she still trembled and protested loudly for Miko Xi.
Of course He Dan would not blame Renee for such a trivial matter, she was just a little funny:
"Since you are so sure that Miko Xi has no bad intentions, then show me the evidence... You should understand the truth that empty words are useless, right?"
"Evidence... I have it!"
He Dan was just asking casually, but Renee rolled her eyes twice and actually thought of a new clue:
"Master Xi not only cares about us monsters, but also loves his subordinates, and is even willing to spend a lot of energy for a little thing.
Xiao Yuan and Xiao Ai are twin sisters, you also know your Highness Princess, right?What I'm talking about is about them!
When they first came to work in the reserve, there was no network signal in the Great Barrier, so even if the sisters had a mobile phone and a computer, they could only play alone.
Later, after getting acquainted with Master Xi, the two of them followed my suggestion to ask Master Xi to find a way to connect to the Internet in the Great Barrier.
Master Xi agreed without even thinking about it, and we didn't pay attention at first, thinking that this kind of thing would be easy for Master Xi.
Unexpectedly, the entire protected area was shaken that day, and Mrs. Xi was weak for several days before recovering. Sister Suzuki blamed herself for this.
Everyone knows about this, especially those of us monsters who are in charge of the Suzuki sisters. If you don't believe me, Your Highness, you can just ask! "
"Indeed, I have heard about this, Old Wolf."
As a result, before He Dan could speak, the giant snow-white wolf nodded, and the rest of the monsters quickly expressed their agreement.
"Just connecting to the net will cause a lot of movement?"
He Dan's heart skipped a beat, as if he had grasped some important clue, but failed to fully grasp it.
That feeling, as if the siege cone had already hit the city gate, but because of the lack of strength, no matter how you adjust the posture and angle, you can't break through, which is very uncomfortable.
She tried hard for a long time but failed to catch the aura in her hands, so she decided to change her mind temporarily and listen to the investigation results of the witches first.
In this era of advanced communication, it is very easy to investigate the past of a well-known person, and an hour should be enough for those witches.
The fact is also true. When He Dan summoned those witches again, they had already sorted out Xi's experience in Fusang County.
Just like the impression of the monsters in the reserve, Xi's life trajectory in Fusang from childhood to adulthood can't be faulted at all.
Xi was born in an ordinary family. His parents were both farmers. When he was less than three years old, he was spotted by a senior priestess passing by the village and brought back to the shrine to cultivate him carefully.
Xi's parents gained a lot of wealth because of this, and Xi was very competitive. It took less than ten years to become the youngest maiden in the history of Fusang County.
In the next few decades, Li Xi rarely left the shrine. It was not until 300 years ago that she passed on the position of great witch to her disciples and came to the southwestern part of Kyushu alone, becoming the manager of the supernatural reserve.
He Dan originally thought that Xihui's sudden decision to come to Kyushu was a little suspicious, but he asked Li Siz to know that this was an active recruitment by the empire.
Because Fuso Miko is known to be good at using barriers and manipulating earth veins, the empire actively recruited Miko to help manage the reserve, and Xi was only selected as the best Miko.
...It seems that there is no gain.
Helplessly, He Dan put the information in his hands aside, and was about to think of other ways, but suddenly met a certain little witch with twinkling eyes.
Chapter 691 Story
"You...yes, it's you, come here."
Seeing that little witch's eyes flicker a few times and she wanted to shrink back, He Dan hurriedly ordered her to come forward.
"your Highness."
Unexpectedly, there was a mature-looking miko standing in front of her right away, bowing deeply respectfully and resolutely:
"Please let Xiao Wu go, she is still a child, not even old enough to go to high school."
"what?"
He Dan was a little dazed for a moment, until he saw the little witch blushing, shy and scared again, and realized that his rumor of lewdness and immorality must have been misunderstood.
"Where do you want to go?"
She waved her hand angrily:
"I just asked her to come and ask questions, nothing else."
"Question?"
The witch who stepped forward was stunned for a moment, but her eyes lit up:
"That's right, Xiaowu is the maiden of the Chuyun Shrine, she is from the same line as Master Xi, maybe she really knows something that we haven't found out... Come on, Xiaowu, I have to answer Your Highness the Princess truthfully, do you understand? "
"Yes, sister Orihime~~."
The little witch nodded obediently, and walked up to He Dan, first glanced at He Dan, then immediately lowered her head shyly:
"That... I just heard a story in the village under the mountain of the shrine, and I feel that one of the protagonists in the story looks like Master Xi, but I don't know if it's not true."
"story?"
He Dan pondered for two seconds:
"The story doesn't matter, you tell me first."
"Ok."
The little witch recalled a little and organized the language:
"It's a story passed down from mouth to mouth in a local village. There are quite a few versions, but basically there are some differences in details, and the content is probably the same.
To put it simply, in our shrine, there used to be two talented maidens who studied together. One was from an ordinary farming family, and the other was the eldest daughter of a wealthy businessman.
They are all very talented, they were brought back by the Grand Priestess when she traveled abroad, and they were carefully cultivated as the successors of the next Grand Priestess.
Both of them knew that the other was their competitor, but they didn't hate each other. Instead, they were very close.
On the day when the great witch was about to formally decide on the heir, they even gave in to each other, wanting to give each other this opportunity.
Due to the similar strength, similar talent, and good relationship between the two, the Grand Priestess considered family factors when making the final decision, and chose the rich lady as the heir.
It's a pity that the good times didn't last long. Not long after the eldest lady took over the position of the great witch, her family was plotted to ruin her family.
Despite the earnest persuasion of the former great witch, the eldest lady still went her own way and secretly went to revenge without telling everyone.
When other people in the shrine got the news, the young lady had already lost her hand, and she was still in the dust.
The daughter of the farmer's family was devastated when she found out about it, but she was confined to the shrine by the great witch and was not allowed to go out. Later, it seemed that the relevant memories were sealed.
After that, the ending is controversial...
Some people say that the daughter of the farmer's family forgot her close friends and spent her whole life in the shrine.
Some people also said that the daughter of the farmer's family was just pretending to have amnesia, but in fact she had been planning to avenge her close friend.
Some people even said that the eldest lady was actually rescued by the farmer's daughter long ago, and the two of them even emptied the former great witch from secretly manipulating the Chuyun Shrine..."
"Well...it really is just a story."
Dan He didn't take this story lightly as a clue, but he didn't give up entirely either:
"So? Do you suspect that the peasant girl in the story is Xi?"
"Is such that."
The little witch nodded, then shrugged again:
"Actually, I've been curious about the prototype of this story for a long time, so I sneaked into the shrine's warehouse to peek at the file records, but I didn't find a character that could be matched.
That is to say, Senior Xi's origin in a farming family is somewhat similar to being brought back by the great witch. There is no record about the eldest lady, and there has never been any great witch who has trained two heirs at the same time. "
"Is there no record... OK, I see."
He Dan thought for a while, and didn't continue the topic of this story:
"Continue to pay attention to the pulse direction of the earth, and report to me immediately if there are any new abnormalities."
"Yes, Your Royal Highness!"
More than a dozen witches bowed respectfully again, and then withdrew one by one.
It wasn't until he and Li Si were left alone in Lingquan Palace that He Dan frowned slightly:
"What do you think, Sister Prime Minister? Is that story possible?"
"Emmm... It's hard to say, but there is a saying [No wind, no waves]."
Li Si gave a judgment after a little thought:
"This kind of word-of-mouth story is definitely far from the truth, but there is a high probability that it has a prototype."
"What a coincidence, that's what I thought too."
He Dan chuckled lightly:
"Anyway, there are still no good clues, so I'd rather check the mistakes and let them go... There is no relevant record in the Izumo Shrine. It is likely that the record was erased out of face, and I plan to start from other places.
Shio came to Kyushu to serve about 300 years ago, and she had been active as the chief miko of Izumo Shrine for decades.
It is not difficult to judge the approximate time of her practice and learning by deducing it backwards.
We can inquire with the aristocratic families in Fusang County to see if there are any stories about the family of a rich lady who was ruined and ruined during that period of time...
This kind of thing is easy to be noticed no matter what age, if it really happened, it is impossible that there will be no trace left. "
"Understood, I'll do it now."
Li Si quickly contacted the rich families in Fusang County, and He Dan also called several of her friends there one by one, and then waited for news.
A few more hours passed quickly, and Little Sword Fairy had a lot of battles, and several powerful monsters were cut by her sword.
The search for the entrance to the Great Barrier still had no clue, and the empire continued to deploy personnel from other places.
This time, it's not just the maidens from Fusang County. No matter where they come from, as long as they can find a way to find the entrance to the Great Barrier or provide key clues, they will be rewarded.
However, even the priestess who is also good at using the power of enchantment and earth veins can't do anything, and the laymen who came after them are even more helpless.
Fortunately, the investigation of Xi Hei's history finally paid off... The prototype of the eldest lady in the story of the little witch actually really exists!It's just that the truth is very different from the story.
About 370 years ago, there was indeed a rich lady whose family was ruined and degraded, and she became the number one flower house because of her singing, dancing, and beautiful appearance, leaving a lot of fame.
More importantly, that young lady would often go to the shrine to pray after she became the top card in Hualou, and she also became friends with many witches.
And the shrine that the young lady visits most often is the Izumo Shrine where Xi Xiu grew up!
Chapter 692 finally came in
There are two biggest discrepancies between the facts and the story. One is that the young lady has never practiced at the Chuyun Shrine, and she is only a frequent visitor to the Izumo Shrine.
The second is that the reason why the eldest lady's family was ruined was not due to villainous schemes, but because her home was ransacked because she sponsored a cult to harm the village.
Most of the family members violently resisted the law during the ransacking process and were shot dead on the spot. Only the young lady who was underage at the time escaped, was paid for bail by Hualou, and finally became famous far and wide.
Not only that, after knowing the true identity of the eldest lady, He Dan even got a portrait of the eldest lady when she was an oiran from a friend.
The person who provided the portrait was Natsuka Uesugi, a female samurai with huge breasts. Her Uesugi family had not yet declined at that time, and the head of the family was also a young son who loved to spend a lot of money in flower houses.
Coincidentally, the head of the Uesugi family not only patronized Miss Fengchen's business, but also asked an artist to paint a portrait of her, which is still kept in the warehouse of the Uesugi family's old house.
When He Dan heard the word [Fengchen], He Dan already had a bold association, until she saw the portrait photo sent by Uesugi Natsuka, she was even more convinced of her guess.
Although there is a big difference between the undisfigured beauty in the portrait and the scarred face seen in Vivienne's inner world, He Dan can tell at a glance that they are the same person.
The young lady who has fallen into dust is the last high-ranking member of the Twilight Sect—the Witch of Mind.
That is to say, Miko Xi is also a Twilight believer in all likelihood, and the purpose of her troubles must still be for the legendary crisis of annihilation.
Could it be that they still plan to summon Mites to sacrifice to the world?
He Dan frowned tightly, thinking that he should not be so optimistic.
Having been able to do things all over the world for so many years, Twilight believers are definitely not fools.
Mites came down twice and returned without success. With the IQ of the Witch of the Mind, no matter how you think about it, you won't try for the third time, right?
Moreover, in the ruins of advanced civilization in Central America, the Twilight Great Guardian also said that summoning Mites to descend was a plan he had insisted on for many years.
