She Is Not a Witch
Vol 2 Chapter 64: Vicious mask
Walking along the forest path shrouded in darkness, the girl looked at the dim lights in the shrine in the distance, and could still hear some faint crying.
If Nuo is her own in the previous life, I am afraid she has escaped in fear, she thought in her heart, and then moved on.
Thanks to her special talent, allowing her to perceive certain truths without being deceived by strange appearances.
When she reached the side entrance of the shrine, she stopped for a while and took a look at the situation inside. It turned out that it was a woman kneeling in the temple and crying, and there was a body covered with black cloth beside her.
Seeing such a scene, the girl also had a bit of speculation in her heart, perhaps it was the death of the woman's relatives that made her feel so sad.
The witch woman who was in the shrine at the moment also came over and looked at the girl under the steps of the shrine.
"Are you awake? Is there something wrong?" Her voice was kind of kind.
"Well, I'm hungry." The girl replied slightly embarrassed.
"Hehe, what a simple child." Granny Groo asked the girl to wait for a while, then went to another yard at the back, and fetched a cloth bag with some rice in it, including two green peel fruits and one. Taro.
"Let's make do with it tonight. Tomorrow you can go to the Fangshi in the valley." Granny Gros handed the bag to the girl, and then turned back.
Soon there was a slight noise in the shrine, which seemed to be the sound of several pieces of copper colliding with each other, bringing a hint of agility and tranquility in the dark night, and soothing the sad cry.
After Lorrain Hill took the things, he also went back to make dinner. First, wash the rice, then put it in a pot and steam, and then put the chopped taro in it.
Then she walked out and sat in the yard for a while, after all, steaming rice would take some time.
The valley at night is very quiet. There are few crops in it. Only near the shrine, because the terrain is higher, you can get a little sunlight, and all there is a piece of woods and grass.
The girl looked at the sky above her head that was hit by the mountain wall from both sides, and the faint starlight flashed out.
Although it is very barren, the starry sky is much clearer than the place where I stayed before.
With the slightly fat Dai Ju pillowed behind him, Lorrain Hill sat on the cold stone mill in the yard, looking up at the stars, with a faint nostalgia, as if he had returned to a long time ago.
In this way, she closed her eyes and felt the breeze slowly blowing from her side, bringing the unique freshness of the night.
———
The next morning, after a simple meal, Lorrain Hill came to the shrine.
The woman from last night had already left, and the hall became quiet again, while the Granny Gro was holding a broom, sweeping the open space in front of the shrine, and letting the fallen leaves at night return to the bushes aside.
"Get up, Jia Lan." The old man said hello, speaking gently.
Lorrain Hill nodded, then picked up the broom and swept the remaining leaves aside.
After the two had done this little thing, they walked to the back of the shrine together, surrounded by the open woods, where there were simple stump tables and chairs.
"Sit for a while first, and then I will tell you some of the usual situations." The old man and the girl sat on the small wooden stakes beside the big tree stump.
"First of all, why did you invite your support? It's also because recently I feel that many things are a little too weak." The old man began to talk.
"You must have seen the local scene along the way. There are sparsely populated people and the land is barren."
Lorraine Hill nodded, the scene since the journey is indeed as the old man said.
"You may be wondering why the various villages and settlements are concentrated in mountains, valleys, and some remote and narrow places."
"That's because in the middle of the month, the dragon veins will be extremely active, and when the time comes, the power of the Nine Nether will be diffused on the earth and the wilderness, and all kinds of monsters and ghosts will come out to move. And the open place is very open. It is difficult to resist, the more the sky opens up, the easier it is to be attacked by those flying ghosts."
"The earth and rocks will be much better. Although there are some ghosts that can pass through, some ancient methods can still be carved with practical incantations to isolate those ghosts from easily passing through."
"Here, those days in the middle of the month will be difficult days. Everyone will gather together and resist the impact of the outside world. Only when the power of the Nine Nethers surging in the dragon veins gradually dissipates, can we go out again."
The witch briefly introduced the local people's work and rest arrangements, as well as the significance of doing so.
At this time Lorrain Hill also slowly understood why the wilderness outside was all barren, even if there were few roads. This is also because anything built will be destroyed by various wandering ghosts in the middle of the month, so it is better not to build it.
"The reason for asking you to come is that I hope to help the people here and resist all kinds of ghost attacks."
After explaining, the old man finally said what the young girl wanted to accomplish.
"Okay, I get it." Lorrain Hill nodded, it would not be difficult if only to clear those monsters.
Seeing the young girl nodding, the old man's expression seemed to relax a little, and it seemed that he was under a lot of pressure on weekdays.
"That's it for now. Later, I will take you to the market below the valley to buy some things for daily use. Although it is barren, some daily necessities can still be supplied."
———
In the sky above the head, the sun is hanging in the air, and a little sunlight shines into the ground in the valley, which makes people feel a burst of warmth.
Lorraine Hill followed behind Granny Grove and walked in this simple square city.
Its length is only two to three hundred meters, and most of them are local people setting up stalls to buy and sell things.
Compared to the outside world, the clothing here is very simple, basically black linen. The unchanging black linen is all over the field of vision, forming clothes, baggage, windshield and so on.
People often wrap their bodies in such black linen, and wear them more tightly.
The people of the family have pale skin and are not resistant to the sun. If they are exposed to the sun for a long time, they will cause damage to the skin. Therefore, they all like this kind of dress.
The only good news is that the face was exposed after all, not completely covered up, which added a bit of popularity to the city, rather than just like the place of the Hades.
"How do you sell this cloth?" The old man stopped in front of a stall and looked at the black linen cloth rolled on the wooden frame in front of him. It felt a little rough and dry.
"20 silver rings, Master Miko." The stall owner saw Granny Grove, stood up, and replied respectfully.
"Okay." Granny Grove didn't bargain, she took out a silver ring from her arms and put it on the shopkeeper's plate.
"Well, you gave 5 more silver rings." The shopkeeper looked at it and felt that it was too much.
"It's nothing, you accept it. Spinning is not easy. In addition, the children also need to eat something good." Granny Grove looked at the two thin children behind the stall owner, her eyes showing some kindness.
"Thank you Granny Gro. Thank you Miko." The woman bowed in gratitude and gave a small coil of thread.
Seeing that the witch wanted to pick up the roll of black cloth, the girl next to her hurried forward and picked it up in advance.
Although Granny Grove wasn't that weak, the girl was still a little uncomfortable with an old man in front of her, so she picked up the roll of cloth first.
"That's hard for you. When I go back, I'll help you make some more clothes." Granny Grotto said.
"No, I have several clothes, I don't need them for the time being." The girl shook her head.
"I know, but it's your own clothes. It's a remote place. If it's damaged, it won't be good if you don't have to change it on weekdays."
"Sometimes you can't take care of so much during the fight. There will always be times when it gets dirty or broken. It's better to wear some durable and cheap clothes, so that you won't feel distressed." Granny Gros explained.
After that, the two continued to walk to the other side of the square market and bought rabbit meat as a snack tonight.
In this barren land, only a few wild rabbits can survive, and other cattle and sheep are not enough for people to eat, let alone take them off.
After returning to the shrine, Granny Grotto took the girl to the backyard to make a few buckets of water, and then began to cook today's lunch. During the period, the girl asked for help, so she turned into a mother-in-law to choose vegetables, make preparations, and add seasonings, while the girl chopped vegetables and made a fire.
Finally, after everything was set up, the two sat around the small stove in the house, watching the boiling soup in the small pottery pot in the middle, among them the light red rabbit meat, the green vegetable leaves, and the light yellow potato chips. Constantly surging, exuding a nice fragrance and heat.
At this time, the two birds were also standing on a wooden stand by the side. A stone dish was placed in front of each other. There was a little food in it. people.
"It's been a long time since I ate like this."
Granny Gro seemed to sigh. Today she is wearing the same black cloth and linen as the residents here, instead of the witch costume that the girl saw yesterday.
"How do you usually eat?" The girl also had a hint of curiosity.
"Usually, it will be easier to eat one meal, but sometimes I don't dare to make too much, because I am afraid it will be broken if I can't finish it."
"Is it always alone?"
"It wasn't a long time ago. There were a few children helping out at the shrine, and it was quite lively at that time." The old man's eyes showed a bit of nostalgia.
"Unfortunately, some of them got married, and some were gone, so I was the only one." Even so, there was not much sadness in the old man's voice, and it seemed that he had already looked down on it.
"I don't know if this shrine can be passed on in the future, this is the only thing I still worry about."
The two of them used chopsticks to hold the dishes, mixed the rice, and ate slowly, and then talked about the situation in the shrine.
The dragon veins under this land are different from the outside world. Most of them are still contaminated. The shrine maidens cannot dominate the dragon veins of the entire state and county like other areas in the outside world.
"...So, the only thing I can do is to keep the few small branches in them, to protect them from pollution, to nourish those lands, so that people who depend on these lands can live. Come down." The old man said slowly.
"Did the dynasty ever consider solving the problem permanently? It is said that the former Chifeng still exists in the world." The girl asked curiously. According to past records, that Chifeng, the witch who created the dragon vein, should be able to interfere and repair That's right.
"Master Chifeng, one of the Five Virtues, did come here hundreds of years ago, and there were several celestial beings with him at that time."
"It's a pity that this is not just the problem of the dragon veins, but also the problem of the sky." The old man shook his head.
"The blessed land of the cave of the Yamagata Palace in the past was in this mountain, but in that battle, the cave collapsed and exploded, and various time and space gaps were distorted in it, and the shape was chaotic and intricate."
"Even if Master Chifeng came in person, he could only solve the pollution and distortion of part of the dragon veins, but couldn't do all the work."
"If the other one of the Five Virtues, Lord Yellow Bird is still there, it is said that the one who can change and influence the existence of Dongtianfudi."
"It's a pity that Master Chifeng returned to the west because of the death of the yellow bird."
"The phoenix of the five virtues, there is only one remaining, which is embarrassing."
Lorrain Hill listened to the old man's narration, and suddenly a scene of familiar and unfamiliar scenes appeared in his mind. It was a scene of five young girls playing under a tall sycamore tree. The girl in Tsing Yi is smart and light, the girl in white is quiet and soft, the girl in black is upright and can’t let go, the girl in red is cheerful and strong, and the girl in yellow is good at all kinds of whimsical ideas.
The scene appeared quickly in this picture, and when the girl thought about it, it disappeared like a mist and disappeared.
Are the phoenixes of five virtues all witches, or why would I suddenly see those scenes in memory? This thought came to the girl's heart.
It seems that I still have to hurry up to practice the Necromancer sequence, and retrieve the vague and missing memories in the soul. What the girl can think of at this moment is still at the beginning of the joint war between Crancia and Frost.
However, one of the important pieces of information also made her understand her true origin. That is the Twilight Era, one of the cornerstones of the Throne of God plan within the ‘Original Heart’ faction, the pure wind of change.
Inferring from this, Keti is likely to be the bright red and scorching flame, Keluoati.
I just don’t know where the other two are now. If you really want to talk about relatives, UU Read www. uukanshu.com is the four souls who are also the cornerstones of the throne the most kind.
After all, we have stayed together for hundreds of thousands of years, and that kind of soul blending and intimacy is unimaginable for outsiders.
After taking back the thoughts in her mind, the girl continued to eat, and the dishes in the pot were gradually wiped out.
"Eating for two people, sure enough, even the appetite will be better." Granny Gros put down the dishes, her words filled with satisfaction.
After that, it was simple to clean up, and then in the afternoon, Granny Grove helped the girl roughly cut out a black cloth coat.
"Wrap this outside so that you don't stain the clothes inside. I'll help you make a few middle wears later." The mother-in-law helped the girl take care of her clothes, and tied her waist and collar by the way.
"Tomorrow, I will trouble you to go to a village in the north. It is said that there was a ferocious monster recently, which caused a lot of casualties in the village. Besides, if you see some ghosts on the road, please clean up." Ge Granny confessed the most recent task.
"If you encounter a problem that can't be solved, don't do it arbitrarily. After all, your own life is the important thing."
"It is not shameful to run away. Only those who persist in living and achieving their goals are worthy of respect." Granny Gros gave her final warning, as if she had had special encounters when she was young.
"Finally, put this on."
Before leaving, a wooden mask was put into the girl's hand by Granny Grove. The mask has a hideous appearance, as fierce as a ghost.
"Sometimes, you have to be more vicious than evil spirits, and those ignorant people will respect and respect you."
