Infinite Journey Starting from the Fox

"Who's here? Report your name!"

But at this time Lin Ling was stopped by someone who appeared suddenly.

It was a girl in her teens, with a short height, with silver-white hair combed into three parts, and wearing a black ribbon hair accessory.She is wearing a white shirt, a green jacket with a black bow tie, a pocket and a white ghost-like pattern on the left chest of the jacket, and a turquoise skirt with the same white pattern on the edge of the skirt , wearing white bubble socks and black shoes.

Although the appearance looks like an ordinary human being, Lin Ling knows that it is definitely not so simple to appear in the underworld. What's more, at this moment, the girl is holding the handle of the saber at her waist, giving people a kind of It feels like drawing a knife to face each other if they don't agree, but the most strange thing is that there is a huge mochi-shaped white unknown object floating around her, which looks like some ghosts in urban legends.

"Hi~ hello, I'm an ordinary person, not right, an ordinary fox demon." Lin Ling awkwardly greeted the girl in front of her, "By the way, you can call me Lin Ling."

It is better not to insist that you are a human being at a time like this.

Unexpectedly, when the girl saw this, she put down her hand holding the hilt of the sword, and bowed slightly to Lin Ling: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry for you, the master of Baiyu Tower, Youyou of Xixing Temple, the master of the underworld. Master Zi's servant."

"Lord of the underworld?" Hearing this, Lin Ling was a little surprised, and an image of a mighty and domineering emperor suddenly appeared in his mind.

"Well, can I visit that Lord Youyouzi? A friend of mine has disappeared here. I want to ask him if he has any clues." After explaining her reason for coming, Lin Ling was still very nervous. , after all, he is the overlord of one party, will he receive such a small person as himself?But the critical situation of Orange Meow, who has been missing for a long time, still makes her have to say so.

"Okay." Unexpectedly, Hunyouyoumu agreed very simply, "But I can only inform you, as for whether to agree or not, it depends on what Yuyuko-sama thinks, although her personality is average. Just don’t refuse, after all, you are looking for friends.”

"Really!" Lin Ling said happily, "You are really good people."

I didn't expect the 'people' in the underworld to be so talkative. Not only did they not wonder why I, a living person, appeared in the underworld, but they also seemed willing to help me.Lin Ling breathed a sigh of relief, thankful that he met a nice person.

At the same time, Youmu is also secretly happy: since that rude red-white and black-white guy came over and beat me up, this is the first time a more polite person came to visit, and it was also a cute fox demon Miss.

"Then please come with me." Soul Yaomeng made a gesture of invitation, and brought Lin Ling back to Baiyulou.

"You wait in the courtyard for a while, I'll report to Yuyuko-sama." After bringing Lin Ling to the courtyard full of cherry trees, Youmu turned around and went to a room, but before she finally entered the door, she Turning around, he said, "By the way, don't say things like 'her old man' you just said in front of Mrs. Yuyuko, she hates being called old or something."

"Yeah, thank you for reminding me." Lin Ling hurriedly nodded gratefully at Yaomeng.

"Wow, there are so many cherry blossom trees. It's a pity that it's not the season to bloom, otherwise it must be very beautiful." Lin Ling, who had nothing to do, began to watch the courtyard. The first thing that caught his eye was the countless cherry blossom trees.

"Hey~ Youmu brought a fox? Do you want to eat fox meat today?" A female voice different from Youmu suddenly came from inside the room.

"Ah? Want to eat me?" Hearing this, Lin Ling suddenly became vigilant, and squatted down slightly, planning to run away as soon as something went wrong.

But immediately she heard Youmu's voice again.

Youmu: "Master Yuyuko, don't be so full of food! He came to visit you on business."

"Huh? So Master Youyouzi is a woman?" Lin Ling felt relieved at this time, "Generally speaking, women are usually a little easier to talk to, and I also have skills specifically for women, so don't worry too much. Speaking of being the master but being scolded by the servants, is this the master of the underworld?"

Not long after, the door of the room opened again, and a tall girl came out first, and Youmu respectfully waited on her side.

The girl had short hair with a pink shawl, pink pupils, and pale skin. She wore a nightcap-like hat and a blue and white kimono with a lot of ruffles and lace. collar, and a bow ribbon on the chest, and the clogs on the feet are not the clogs that match the kimono, but the Mary Jane shoes that are often seen in Gothic Lolita outfits. The laces are also decorated with bows, and they are accompanied by exaggerated With a host of ghosts.

"Hello, Miss Fox, I'm at Yuyuko, Xixing Temple."

Chapter 84: Powder Cut Black

"Ah? What? Oh, yes, hello, um, I'm an ordinary fox demon who came here by chance, just call me Lin Ling."

Ah, no!Just after answering Youyouzi's words, Lin Ling regretted it a little, because Youyouzi's "down" made Lin Ling unable to fix it.

Damn it, would it be too arrogant for me to call myself "I" when such a big man who is the overlord of the world calls himself "my subordinate" to me?Ah~ how should I apologize?

Thinking of this, Lin Ling immediately bowed 90 degrees and continued: "What, Master Youyouzi of Xixing Temple, I am here to disturb you in order to find a missing friend. Please forgive me if I offend you."

After speaking, Lin Ling still maintained a bowing posture.

But Yuyuko didn't say a word.

Lin Ling had no choice but to keep going.

Finally, Lin Ling, who hadn't seen anything for a long time, couldn't bear it anymore, and quietly raised her head to take a look.

But I saw that Yuyuko was fighting with Youmu with a suppressed smile.

"Oh~ Yuyuko-sama is bullying a girl again, it's too bad, she's been bowing for so long, please wake her up quickly." Youmu lightly patted Yuyuko's arm and approached her ear Bian whispered persuasion.

But unexpectedly, Yuyuko blew a breath almost close to Youmu's ear, and then whispered: "Hey~ Is Youmu jealous because I am teasing other people?"

"That's not it!" Being teased by Yuyuko, Youmu instantly blushed to the base of her neck!

The two were chattering in whispers, but unfortunately they were still heard clearly by Lin Ling's four-channel ears.

"Ah, this~" The corners of Lin Ling's mouth couldn't help twitching a few times, this Lord of the Underworld seems a bit childish?But that's okay, it should be easy to talk about.

Then Lin Ling stood up straight again.

Seeing Lin Ling standing up again, Youyouzi immediately put away the fighting and instantly returned to his more serious appearance before.

The expression management ability is so strong that Yomu who is still blushing next to him is stunned.

Youyouzi: "Then, can Ms. Lin Ling tell me where you two got separated?"

"I'm very sorry. I fell into a coma when a friend of mine came here with me. After waking up, I was on that very long staircase. I don't know exactly where I got separated. That's why I want to ask Master Yuyuko of Xixing Temple, the master of the underworld, to help you find it, if it's you, you should know everything about the underworld."

"That's it, but although I can barely be considered the master of the underworld, in fact, I am just an ordinary wage earner arranged by Master Yan Mo to manage the ghosts in the underworld, but I am not as powerful as you imagine. .”

"That's it." Hearing Youyouzi's words, Lin Ling was a little disappointed.

"However, I can still ask my ghosts to help you find it." After speaking, Youyouzi waved his hand, and the little ghosts around him ran to Lin Ling, "You can describe it to them in detail first. The appearance of your friend, as for you, the visitor is just a guest, so let’s go into the White Jade Tower to take a rest, and let the ghosts find them.”

After finishing speaking, Youyuko returned to the house, and Yaomeng also led Lin Ling in to sit down, and then went to the other side to prepare tea and cakes for the guests.

I'm really not used to this kind of Japanese-style room. Lin Ling, who just knelt on the tatami, quietly rubbed her aching and numb legs.

Youyouzi, who was sitting opposite, kept staring at him with a smile, making Lin Ling a little puzzled.

As one of the closest friends of the monster sage Yakumo Zi, Yuyuko Saigyouji naturally knew of Lin Ling's existence, but this was the first time she had seen him.

Yuyuko: Is this the person chosen by the oil curry? It seems quite interesting, but~ Smell~ She smells so good, she doesn't have the evil smell unique to monsters, nor does she have the mortal breath of ordinary humans, ah~ I really want to Eat it in one bite~

Lin Ling got a little hairy from being stared at by Youyouzi, but she couldn't say anything, so she simply stopped looking at her, turned around and told the little ghosts around her about the appearance of Orange Meow, but a pure black cat is no good Described, soon said to play, and the ghosts left immediately.

Then only Youyouzi and Lin Ling were left alone.

Lin Ling: I always feel that her eyes are malicious.

Thinking of this, Lin Ling moved back a little bit.

"Huh?" But her behavior aroused Youyouzi's dissatisfaction, "Oh? Miss Lin Ling, do you hate me?"

"Ah, no, no, how dare I?" Lin Ling quickly waved her hands in denial.

"Then why do you want to avoid me." Youyouzi said resentfully.

Lin Ling: "No, no, only a little bit towards Lord Youyouzi, what should I say? Be in awe?"

"Oh, I understand, you are afraid of me!" Yuyuko pouted, "It really hurts to be scared by such a cute child? So..."

"So?" Lin Ling was puzzled.

"So so that you are not afraid of me..." So Youyouzi stood up, then ran around the table to Lin Ling and sat down next to her, "Just let me get closer to you!"

After finishing speaking, Youyouzi tried to rub against Lin Ling.

"Master Yuyuko, please pay attention to some etiquette!" At this moment, Youmeng appeared with a tray containing teacups and some pastries, and inserted his hand between Lin Ling and Yuyuko, preventing Yuyuko from going any further. After that, he slowly pushed Yuyuko away, "Really, what are you doing, it's impolite for a host to touch a guest whom he meets for the first time."

Yuyuko grabbed Youmeng's hand and said coquettishly: "Hey~ No, Youmeng, she just wants to have a good relationship with Miss Lin Ling~"

It's a pity that Youmeng has already formed immunity to Yuyuko's cuteness, and he was unmoved, and immediately vetoed: "No, no matter what you say, you are still a guest. No matter what you think, the first thing to consider is Miss Lin Ling's feelings. Bar."

Youmu-sama, you are such a good person~ Hearing this, Lin Ling immediately looked at Youmu with grateful eyes.

Since time travel, I have finally met the first 'normal person'!

"So, let's continue talking about your friend, shall we? Is she important to you?" Yuyuko, who was finally driven to the opposite side by Youmu, finally became serious again, and after taking a sip of tea, she asked Lin Lingdao.

Lin Ling nodded: "Well, although Cheng is just a little black cat, he is a good brother who has been born and died with me, right, she is a good sister."

"The name is Orange, and the color is also black." Yaomeng, who was not there just now, heard Lin Ling's description and thought with her cheeks on her hands, "It sounds like the one in Master Lan's house, no, listen to you The description is exactly the same!"

"What? Lord Lan?? Did I hear you right!" Lin Ling stood up excitedly, startling Yaomeng sitting beside her a little.

Youmu: "Yes, yes Lord Lan, what's wrong?"

"Which Lord Lan is it?" Lin Ling grabbed Yaomeng's shoulder and asked eagerly.

Youmu: "Who else is it, Yakumo Lan from the Yakumo family, Lord Lan."

How can there be such a coincidence, I am back to Gensokyo?It turns out that what Cheng Meow said earlier had this meaning?Thinking of this, Lin Ling pointed to the ground and continued to ask Yaomeng: "Is there any relationship between this underworld here and Gensokyo?"

Youmu: "It doesn't matter, two different worlds."

Lin Ling was disappointed when she heard the words: "Sure enough, it's not that simple..."

But she hadn't had time to be completely lost, but she heard Yaomu continue: "It's just that the people on both sides often come to visit, and the pastries you are eating now are the ones I bought from the people's shop yesterday."

"Renli? So? I'm back?" Lin Ling's eyes rekindled hope.

But immediately she looked at Youyouzi with some resentment: "Really, Master Youyouzi, since you know, why didn't you say it just now?"

"Hey hey~" Youyuko tried to pass the test with cuteness.

Then Yuyuko turned to Yaomeng with some dissatisfaction and said: "Really, Yaomeng, why did you say everything so quickly, now Miss Lin Ling has to leave soon, originally people wanted her to accompany you more Let's play for a while."

Chapter 85

At this time, Lin Ling finally fully understood: So, is this what Orange meant when he said "Master Zi just let me follow you"?It seems that the hot woman has tampered with my system long ago, and must have replaced my main god space coordinates with Gensokyo and its surrounding areas or something.

In fact, the so-called main god space is not a specific area in the multiverse, but every time the main god system selects a host, it will create for it a "virtual space" created from nothing in the void and relatively independent from all other worlds. space'.

In this space, relative to the outside world, time will not pass, and it is generally used as a place for the system hosts to rest and practice when they have no tasks, that is, the hosts can barely call it a "home". It’s just a simple ordinary cubic space, but it can also be expanded to a very large, luxurious, and extravagant. Of course, you need to pay more~.

However, Lin Ling's main god space was blocked by unscrupulous sages in order to prevent Lin Ling from getting out of their control and to control her conveniently, so it was decided that she would automatically return to Gensokyo every time she completed a task.

"Well~ that's fine, two forces competing for me, it's better than one force monopolizing me~ probably." After thinking about it seriously, Lin Ling was relieved.

"Little fox, why are you in a daze~" Youyouzi asked Lin Ling when she saw Lin Ling froze suddenly.

Lin Ling: "Oh nothing, I just thought that after returning here, Orange Meow should be considered to have returned to her hometown, so I shouldn't have to worry about her too much. But it sounds like you, Yuyuko-sama and Youmu, are very close to Yakumo's family. Looks familiar."

"Yes, Zi-sama and Yuyuko-sama are each other's best friends, and they often visit each other to play. Thanks to them, I am also very familiar with Lan-sama and Chengmao." Yaomeng said.

Lin Ling: "That's it, then it seems that the reason why I can't find Orange may be that she is very familiar with this place, so she went back to Lord Lan before she found me, then, can I ask you to send me back to Gensokyo? "

"Hey, are you leaving now?" Not only Yuyuko, but Youmu also kept her. For some reason, she has a good impression of this snow-white two-tailed fox demon.

Lin Ling: "Not good, will I bother you?"

Yuyuko: "No, it's better to say it's because it's usually too deserted, so it's better to have one more person to make it lively."

"Since the master has said so, it would be too impolite for me to refuse, so I would like to thank Lord Yuyuko and Miss Yaomu first." Lin Lingsui no longer refused.

But Yuyuko seemed a little crazy, and said excitedly: "Yumu, Youmu, there are guests tonight, remember to prepare more than ten or twenty dishes."

These words surprised Lin Ling, who was really hungry at this time: "Ten or twenty? No need, how can I finish eating? It's too wasteful, don't bother me so much~"

"Hi~ hi~ good Yuyuko-sama." But what Lin Ling didn't expect was that Yaomeng didn't seem to be surprised at all, and instead said, "However, I think you, Yuyuko-sama, just want to eat for yourself! In addition, Miss Lin Ling, don't worry, it won't be a waste if you do it a few times, Master Youyouzi's stomach is a bottomless pit, no matter how you fill it up, it won't be enough."

"It's not that exaggerated. People can only eat a little bit. Youmu, what you said is a bit too much."

"Yes...is that so, Youmeng, you have really worked hard..." At this moment, Lin Ling once again refreshed her understanding of the pink girl who looked harmless to humans and animals.

……

Sure enough, when it was time for dinner, there was a large table full of dishes, and there were quite a few dishes in each dish.

"I'm starting!" Without saying anything, Youyouzi immediately began to eat big pieces.

When Lin Ling saw the rich food on this big table, she couldn't help but think of Miss Lingmeng, whom she hadn't seen for a long time: It seems that the gap between the rich and the poor in Gensokyo is not small. I wonder if that guy eats well? ~ I hope she was joking when she said that she was so hungry that she ate dirt, well~ But we can meet again soon.

"Miss Lin Ling, don't the dishes I cook suit your taste?" Youmu asked a little nervously when she saw Lin Ling raised her chopsticks but became dazed.

Lin Ling quickly waved her hand: "Ah, no, it's just that I suddenly thought of a friend."

"Really? Then ask Miss Lin Ling to try it quickly." Yaomeng looked at Lin Ling with expectant eyes.

"En." Lin Ling nodded, then picked up a piece of fish and put it in her mouth.

Lin Ling: "Hmm~ It's really good. It's extremely tender and has an endless aftertaste. This is probably the best fish dish I've eaten in the past few years."

"Really!" Yaomu heard that she was so happy that she wanted to fly, and it was the first time someone praised her cooking to such an extent.

"Of course it's true!" Lin Ling immediately affirmed.

But Lin Ling really didn't lie. Since living alone in high school, he has eaten fast hot food or takeaway every day. How can it compare to the real non-toxic, pollution-free and pure natural products here, and he hadn't had time to eat them in the last mission world? Fish and meat, not to mention Youmeng's cooking skills are really really good.

(Youmu: Huh~ How can the cooking skills of an ordinary chef compare to me who has been trained by cooking big pots of rice every day?)

"Yeah~ That's right, that's right, the food made by Yaomu is delicious, I can't get enough of it." Yuyuko, who was eating hazelnuts, immediately echoed.
