People in hell, boss four seasons

Wen Yao frowned and took a step back.

"Is there something wrong?"

A gentle female voice came from behind Wen Yao.

Surprised by the person coming from behind, Wen Yao quickly turned around.

Another blond girl.

His azure blue eyes revealed extraordinary wisdom, short golden hair draped over his shoulders, a red headband on his head, a sleeveless blue dress with a white shawl, a thick magic book under his arm, and two dolls floating beside him.

Her body floated slightly above the ground, so she made no sound when she walked.

"My name is Alice Margotroyd. I'm the owner of the house here. I'm a magician and humanoid envoy. If you don't mind, you can come in and talk about it."

The girl smiled slightly on her cheeks that could be broken, revealing two dimples. She walked up to Wen Yao, pushed open the door, and very ladylikely invited Wen Yao into the room as a guest.

In fact, casually entering other girls' residences is not something a gentleman should do, but in view of the special situation that he was lost, Wen Yao still walked into Alice's residence calmly.

The two dolls finally closed the door, and Wen Yao could see the decorations in Alice's home at a glance.

The interior of the hut is also in a simple western home style. Opposite the main entrance is a huge fireplace. The sofa, coffee table and other furniture are neatly placed in the room, and the side door is sealed. However, judging from the magic elements overflowing from the cracks in the door, it should be a place similar to the alchemy room used to test magic.

Some watercolor oil paintings are hung at intervals on the wall, and various dolls are placed in special glass counters in the corner, which seem to be precious collections.

The sanitation in the room is cleaned by the puppet, so you don't have to work hard yourself.

"Shanghai, Penglai, pour tea for the guests."

The two sat down on both sides of the coffee table, and the two dolls floating beside Alice brewed the prepared tea, served it on the table, and placed it on the coffee table in front of them.

The tea is still steaming, and it is indeed freshly brewed tea.

"Guest, I haven't asked for your name yet."

It had been a long time since there were any new faces near Alice's residence, and Alice showed a lot of curiosity about Wen Yao, a newcomer. .

"My name is Wen Yao, and I am a subordinate of Master Four Seasons of the Hell Right and Wrong Hall."

"Actually, I just passed the Forest of Magic and couldn't find the way. If Miss Alice doesn't mind, can you tell me how to get to the World?"

Speaking of getting lost in the forest of magic, Wen Yao scratched his head in embarrassment, and drank the tea in front of him in one gulp.

It seems that drinking water can relieve my embarrassment.

"In the world..."

Alice supported her head and thought about it carefully.

"Is it the village where Teacher Huiyin lives?"

In fact, at the beginning, Alice also thought about settling near Renzhizato, so that her daily life would be much more convenient, but in the end, under the persuasion of Kamishirasawa Huiyin, Alice placed the mansion in the forest of magic.

Even if you were a pure human being before becoming a magician or a doll, as long as the transformation ceremony is performed, then, from the moment you are, Alice has already left the category of ordinary human beings. Her existence will only make people in the village who do not know the truth fall into unknown panic.

"So that's the case. No wonder Miss Alice chose to settle in such a place."

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the environment of the Forest of Magic is really good. The miasma lingering in the woods always rises at night, and we must guard against monsters lurking in the dark night, ready to kill people at any time. Solving the daily purchase problem once a week, no matter how you look at it, living in the magical forest is really not a good thing.

Alice moved to Gensokyo recently, because she really couldn't bear the over-doting mother in the Demon World, so she chose to use this method to fight for the hard-won freedom.

A few days ago, under the recommendation of Teacher Huiyin, I took over the job of performing a puppet show every week from Baitian's house, but today is not working time, and Alice will not be kind enough to send Wen Yao to the forest of magic export.

"Just keep going east."

The doll envoy hesitated for a while before he was sure, and pointed to the east direction seriously.

Wen Yao stood up, followed by Alice.

"Thank you for the hospitality. Next time I will treat Miss Alice to a drink."

Wen Yao was referring to the teahouse in Renli, which was near the barnyard's house, and he was very impressed.

Alice pursed her lips, nodded slightly, and accompanied Wen Yao to the edge of the forest.

"Then, Miss Alice, let's say goodbye for the time being."

This must be a harmonious and friendly dialogue.

……

"What an interesting human being, you say yes, Shanghai, Penglai."

------Dividing line------

Because he went in the wrong direction at the beginning, now Wen Yao needs to spend more time to go in the right direction.

"Bring fried shrimp to Shiki-sama, hagfish and sake for Miss Komachi, by the way..."

Wen Yao carefully planned his itinerary.

rustling... rustling...

A familiar young figure emerged from the grass not far away, it was the little witch from the shrine.

How is she here?

Wen Yao felt a little puzzled.

"Hey! It's Brother Wen who put coins into Sai's cash box that day!"

Chapter 20 The Lost Little Witch

The little girl in front of her was indeed the little witch Reimu of Hakurei Shrine. Wen Yao had a deep impression on her when she was at the shrine, she was a very cute girl.

Beautiful long hair tied with a big bow, eye-catching red and white underarm maiden costume, with wide long sleeves that are completely separated from the clothes, this kind of dress is the only one in Gensokyo.

"How did little Lingmeng come here?"

Wen Yao frowned, trying to keep his tone gentle enough.

This primeval forest is full of human-eating "traps" and monsters. For a little witch who has not yet practiced spiritual power, if she makes a wrong step, she will fall into a dragon's den.

This is too dangerous!

Is Hakurei's current priestess actually comfortable letting a little girl stay alone in this kind of place?

"It's such a dangerous place, if you are attacked by monsters nearby, you might not even be able to go back to the shrine."

Wen Yao walked quickly to the little witch in the middle of the forest.

"I asked sister Lumia to bring me to pick mushrooms. Grandma is not feeling well. I will make mushroom soup for grandma."

With that said, Xiao Lingmeng handed the small basket in front of Wen Yao, which contained a lot of mushrooms that she had just picked before.

The environment of the Forest of Magic is very suitable for the growth of mushrooms, which not only include ordinary edible mushrooms, but also produce hallucinogenic mushrooms that can enhance the effectiveness of magic power or spiritual mushrooms that can improve the purity of spiritual power due to environmental changes. Where there is miasma, you can occasionally see traces of ghost mushrooms.

By the way, there is also a rare mushroom called "Destroyer". Although its toxicity is not as deadly as that of poisonous mushrooms, its aphrodisiac effect is long-lasting and long-lasting, and it is very easy to be confused with ordinary edible mushrooms. It is recommended to eat it with caution.

Lumia, Wen Yao heard the name from Lingmeng again, it seems that the relationship between them is indeed very close.

Otherwise, the priestess of the shrine would not be so relieved to hand over Reimu to her.

Humans and monsters are in natural opposition, and the responsibility of the priestess is to get rid of the evil spirits, and monsters who can live under the same roof as the priestess must have a place that the priestess can recognize.

"What about Little Lingmeng's sister Rumia?"

Wen Yao looked at the surrounding woods. In the quiet atmosphere, no other people or monsters could be heard walking around. Obviously, Rumia was not nearby.

However, if you pay close attention to Reimu's body, you can find a layer of bleak protection. It should be Rumia's method of protecting Reimu, but the other party seems to have overestimated the power of the protection. If a monster finds Reimu at this time Dreams, the debilitating effect of shelter, are almost better than nothing.

"Sister Rumia seemed a little uncomfortable just now, and then disappeared. Reimu doesn't know what happened, but Sister Rumia asked me to go home first."

It seems that something important happened and forced to leave Reimu.

Xiao Lingmeng shook her head, and the bow behind her trembled even more. Her soft little hands grabbed the corner of Wen Yao's clothes, and made a request to Wen Yao full of hope.

"Reimu won't go back to the shrine. Lingmeng will go back to the shrine with sister Rumia. Will brother Wen Yao and Lingmeng find Rumia together?"

Wen Yao was disgracefully petrified.

Originally planning to send the little witch back to the shrine, the idea turned into finding Rumia with the little witch.

"Ouch!"

Wen Yao picked up the little witch and let her sit on his shoulders.

"Okay, big brother and little Reimu are looking for your sister Rumia together, does Reimu still remember that Rumia went in that direction?"

The forest of magic is huge, it is impossible for Wen Yao to search aimlessly, at least he must have a clear direction first.

"emmmmm...it seems to be over there!"

Lingmeng pointed to the place where Wen Yao came, which was the direction leading to the depths of the forest.

The mansion of the Doll Maker Alice Margatroid is over there.

"Sister Rumia is going in that direction!"

Reimu said solemnly.

------Dividing line------

Fallen leaves and weeds will cover the ground, and the dry ground did not leave any obvious traces of passing by. Wen Yao supported Lingmeng and continued walking towards the depths of the dense forest in the direction she pointed.

The direction is generally correct. Wen Yao can feel the dark element power gradually becoming stronger in the air, which has the same breath as the rapidly fading vitality of the other party he found in the shrine. This is why he agreed to help Lingmeng find Lumia.

If he wanted to find someone just relying on the direction pointed out by the little girl, Wen Yao would send Reimu back to Hakurei Shrine without hesitation. As for Rumia, if Hakurei's maiden really can't act well, he might agree to help find him.

However, Lingmeng, who has not yet practiced spiritual power, obviously cannot see these powers. She can only stare ahead with wide eyes, expecting the familiar figure to emerge from the bushes. .

"A youkai that feeds on darkness?"

This is Wen Yao's preliminary guess. Only in this way can it explain that the lost vitality of the other party is a dark element, but with the previous loss, Rumia may not be able to last long.

"Huh? What did brother Wen Yao say?"

Hearing Wen Yao's muttering to himself, the drowsy little witch managed to perk up again.

"Little Reimu, is Rumia a monster?"

Instead of guessing by yourself, it is better to ask the person concerned. Sooner or later, the priestess of Hakurei will be alone. The current priestess should not hide such an important thing as a monster living in the little girl's shrine.

"Sister Rumia, it seems that she used to be a very powerful monster, but as long as I can remember, sister Rumia was already at Hakurei Shrine, and I don't know what kind of monster Rumia is."

The little girl didn't have a long memory.

"It seems to be related to Sister Zi. Every time I ask my mother about sister Rumia's story, my mother will always say that next time, but next time she will use other stories to distract Reimu's attention."

Hearing Xiao Lingmeng's angry tone, Wen Yao couldn't help but smile, as expected he was still a child.

However, what Lingmeng said caught Wen Yao's attention.

"Sure enough, Yakumo Zi was involved, then there should be other secrets about Rumia."

With Yakumo Zi's ability, it is very easy to see through Rumia's physical condition. It is very possible that only Reimu in the entire shrine does not know about this matter. If she knows that her good friend's physical condition is deteriorating, and even will pass away soon, the little girl will definitely be very sad.

The process of searching in the forest of magic is destined to be boring, but the child's Reimu soon fell into a coma again.

I don't know whether it was intentional or not, the atmosphere returned to silence again, Wen Yao deliberately slowed down his pace until the little girl on his shoulder fell into a deep sleep, Wen Yao put Lingmeng off his shoulder and hugged her in his arms.

He said solemnly.

"Come out, I know you're here."

Chapter 21 The Nightmare Monster

"You shouldn't have brought her here."

In the shadow of the bushes, the figure of the blonde woman slowly emerged, and the reddish eyes tended to continue to deepen.

Her speaking breath was a little weak, her whole body was shrouded in faint darkness, and her evil aura was a little messy. If you looked carefully, you could see obvious torn marks on the overalls, and the faintly oozing blood exuded a strong dark aura.

This is not a good sign. There are only two situations where monsters cannot control the leakage of their own evil energy. One is that the monster itself is about to die. Conceptual monsters will dissipate into the air.

Although it could be felt that the aura in Rumia's body was passing away rapidly, the other party's state obviously did not meet the first requirement.

The second case is...

"Take Reimu away, I can't stand it anymore..."

Rumia's voice was obviously crying. She gritted her teeth and endured the temptation of blood. She pointed to Reimu's calf, and then pointed to the direction of the shrine. Her throat was hoarse, trying to make the two people in front of her leave quickly.

Once you lose your mind, the price will inevitably be heavy.
