Zongman: A Traveling Journey Starting from the Supreme

Yakumo Zi sighed secretly, after knowing that there are mountains beyond the mountains, Yakumo Zi also guessed Xixiang's plan, which is not difficult to guess.

Yakumo Zi Subai turned the cup in her hand, and asked tentatively: "... Is there any other way?"

...for flowers...

Leaving this world and going to an unknown new world, even Zi Yakumo would be apprehensive and unable to make up his mind.

"This is the easiest way, Zi, you should know."

Xixiang shook his head, "...the battle between mythology and human history is about to begin, and it will affect the entire boundless universe."

"...Besides, even if I leave the Gensokyo you are worried about here, can you guarantee that Gensokyo will still be safe in the years to come?"

There are some meanings in Xixiang's words that Yakumozi doesn't quite understand, such as the so-called competition between the history of mythology and the history of mankind.

But there is one thing that Yakumozi knows, that is, Xixiang dialect does not give her the possibility to choose whether it is spoken inside or outside.

Yakumo Zi herself has no right to choose.

Regardless of whether this demon is really willing to fulfill his wish, it seems that there is no other way except to follow his advice and take Gensokyo out of this world.

O "Then, Your Excellency Zarath, what does the new world you speak of look like?"

Zi Yakumo clenched her jade hands hidden in her cuffs, an unprecedented sense of tension stimulated her.

"It's a world big enough to accommodate everything, full of endless possibilities, but also dangerous enough."

Xixiang did not hide anything.

Hakoniwa is such a world. Countless gifts allow the people in Hakoniwa to have insight and upper limit far beyond those of people in other worlds.

But at the same time, the dangers there are no less.

"Oh, Zi, why are you hesitating again at this time?"

"...It's like opening that invitation letter. You were prepared to fail a long time ago, because you were desperate, so you opened that invitation letter to take a gamble."

"It's the same now. What you can do is just to gamble again. Trust me once."

"...If you don't do anything, Gensokyo will die, but if you do, Gensokyo will have a chance."

Xixiang said with a leisurely smile.

Zi showed a bitter smile, and she said pitifully: "...If it's just our own safety, we won't care."

"... But when it comes to Gensokyo, we know that this is the most correct choice, but it is difficult to make up our minds, and we are ashamed to look forward to a better way."

Xixiang held the teacup in his hand, looked at the tea in it and said, "...you care too much about Gensokyo, which exposes all your weaknesses."

The monster sage was weak and pitiful, and said timidly: "...we don't mind exposing our weaknesses in front of Your Excellency Zaratul."

Xixiang smiled and said nothing, just said: "...In that case, why not show me this Fantasy Township, and see what you care about this life's hard work." Dao

Chapter 3 Purple old woman, is this your girlfriend?

The mountains and rivers are beautiful, and the birds and flowers are fragrant.

Gensokyo is peaceful and sunny.

Xixiang and Yakumo Zi walked on the path between the mountains.

The trees overhead are lush with leaves, and the sun shines from the tops of the trees, leaving a dappled shadow on the earth.

The warm sun at noon dragged Xixiang and Yakumo Zi out of a long shadow, and occasionally saw animals such as little squirrels looking at them curiously from the branches.

This is the easternmost part of Gensokyo. After Saigo said he wanted to see Gensokyo, Yakumo Zi opened the gap and brought him here.

Yokai Sage would not dare to put such a terrible demon in Gensokyo at will, but she couldn't refuse Saigo's proposal.

Therefore, Zi Yakumo had no choice but to take the initiative to accompany her and take Xixiang to enjoy the scenery and culture of Gensokyo together.

The cool air in Gensokyo exudes a natural fragrance, and there is no external pollution at all.

Yakumo Zi's jade hands in lace gloves held a parasol to block the sun.

She twirled the handle of the parasol with five fingers, and said with a smile on her eyebrows "[-]": "... Back then we met a witch with powerful spiritual power."

"...The witch is different from ordinary people. She doesn't have any hatred for monsters, but many monsters are cannibals."

"Even a priestess who doesn't hate monsters will seal or kill these ogre monsters when they face them."

"... At that time, when Western civilization invaded the East on a large scale, the mystery has begun to decline rapidly."

"We told the Miko about our idea of ​​building Gensokyo, and the Miko readily agreed."

"...The mystery disappears, the great source declines, even a talented witch will lose the use of spiritual power in that environment."

"The witch thinks our idea is very good, not only can those cannibal monsters be confined in Gensokyo, so that they will no longer harm people, but also leave the last land full of spiritual power.

"...In the end, we joined forces with the witches to establish a great barrier and shape Gensokyo."

Yakumo Zi walked beside Xixiang, her beautiful eyes looked at this beautiful land, like a mother looking at her child lovingly.

As she and Saigo walked slowly, they told about the short history of Gensokyo.

"When Gensokyo was first established, it was very chaotic, and it was even full of killings. That was our intention, just to eliminate those restless monsters."

"...In the end, the restless monsters are almost cleaned up, and the peace of Gensokyo is now."

"Youkai need the fear of humans to exist, and humans are naturally indispensable in Gensokyo."

"...But with the increase of monsters entering Gensokyo, the number of humans is sometimes not enough, so we have to hide some people to fill the number of humans in Gensokyo."

"The entrance and exit of the Great Enchantment is at the shrine not far ahead. When you come to Gensokyo, the first thing you want to go to is naturally the shrine."

Yakumo Zi is like a conscientious tour guide, eloquently introducing the geographical environment and historical composition of Gensokyo to Saigo.

Xixiang just listened quietly and did not speak.

Not long after walking out of the forest path, it was a straight road leading to the top of the mountain.

The mountain is not high, and there is a dilapidated shrine at the top of the mountain.

Go a few steps forward and you will see the torii gate of the shrine.

I don't know how long the torii has not been repaired, and the red pillars are also mottled, with a lot of paint missing.

If this shrine enshrines a god, it must be a poor god.

Walking into the shrine, what you see is the small square and main hall in the shrine, and there are some old-looking houses scattered around it.

The shrine is not big, and the dilapidated houses have been in disrepair for a long time. The only thing that can be seen is that the shrine is very clean. There is not even a single fallen leaf in the square in front of the temple where the ground is already uneven.

A delicate girl in a red and white priestess costume was sitting on the steps in front of the main hall, holding an old teacup, staring at the sky stupidly.

The witch is beautiful and pleasant, and she looks only fourteen or fifteen years old.

Unlike Yakumo Zi, who pretends to be tender, this is a real girl in her teens, with some childishness still on her face.

The girl's thin and delicate body was wrapped in the red and white priestess costume. Whether it was the white calf exposed under the priestess costume or the wrists in the cuffs, it could be seen that the girl was very thin and even a little malnourished.

However, witches are naturally beautiful, even if they are a little malnourished, their jet-black hair and tender skin are still as beautiful as a lotus.

"Little Lingmeng, we're here to see you again, why don't you welcome me?"

Yakumo Zi gave a pretentious laugh, and walked towards the main hall of the shrine step by step with her plump and slender legs.

The maiden sitting on the steps trembled when she heard Yakumo Zi's voice, and subconsciously raised her head to look at the sky.

Then the witch looked forward belatedly, and said in an inconceivable tone: "...Old woman Zi, why did you walk through the main entrance today?"

Usually, even if Yakumo Zi appeared at the shrine, it would appear in the air through gaps. This was the first time Hakurei Reimu saw Yakumo Zi walking through the main entrance like this.

"What kind of old woman are we at such a young age? You are obviously a 17-year-old young girl, but Xiao Lingmeng, you are still so ungrateful."

Yakumo Zimei narrowed her eyes, showing a malicious expression.

If other people see Yakumo Zi like this, they will probably feel frightened...

But Reimu Hakuli didn't care at all, she said lazily: "...Forget it, what are you doing here?"

"...Don't talk about eating, I didn't eat last night, and my stomach is growling from hunger."

Miko doesn't seem to be lazy, but more likely to use this method to save energy as much as possible.

Hakurei Reimu doesn't like Yakumo Zi.

In other words, except for those who are fascinated by Yakumo Zi's beauty, they will not like her mysterious and seemingly malicious character.

Besides, Hakurei Reimu knew that she was leading such a bleak life, Yakumo Zi was definitely the culprit.

When I was young, there were still people visiting the Mingming Shrine, and they earned some income.

But now no one comes to worship, because there are many little monsters on the road leading to the shrine, and those little monsters were placed there specially by Yakumo Zi.

Gensokyo does not allow random killing, and even a shrine maiden can only exterminate monsters at most.

Besides, those monsters on the mountain trails didn't attack humans, and Hakurei Reimu couldn't find a reason to do anything to them.

After coming and going, when the human beings in the world find that there are too many monsters here, everyone is unwilling to come.

In addition, there are other shrines in Gensokyo robbing tourists, and today's Hakurei Shrine is completely down.

She, the Hakurei Miko, can only rely on Yakumo Zi's support to survive.

Although Hakurei Reimu is not very old, she also guessed that this should be Yakumo Zi's method of controlling her, a shrine maiden.

However, Hakurei Reimu's personality is easy-going and easy-going, so she doesn't care about these things, and she also knows that Yakumo Zi did this for Gensokyo.

0.3 From Hakurei Reimu's perspective, Yakumo Zi is undoubtedly a villainous monster.

But from the perspective of the entire Gensokyo, Yakumo Zi is the guardian of this land.

"Zi old woman, did you bring rice or flour today? Well, I'm out of tea here. You can get me some tea too."

Hakurei Reimu said without strength.

Zi Yakumo moved away from her delicate body, allowing Reimu Hakurei to see Saigo standing behind her.

The monster sage smiled sweetly and said: "... This time we are bringing people to visit this shrine."

Hakurei Reimu said dissatisfiedly, "...Since when did the shrine become a tourist attraction?"

"...But it's okay to be a tourist attraction, but when you come to a shrine, you have to pay a visit, right?"

Hakurei Reimu touched her growling stomach, with a cute expression of greed for money on her face.

But after seeing Xixiang, Hakuryo Miko was startled and said in disbelief: "... Old lady Zi, could it be that this is your former friend who came to Gensokyo to look for you?"

Chapter 4 uncle, often come to the shrine to play!

Hakurei Reimu looked at Xixiang and Yakumo Zi with a suspicious expression, and the more he looked, the more he felt that his guess was right.

Gensokyo is completely covered by barriers, and the only entrance is this Hakurei Shrine.

In the past, it was not that no one accidentally entered Gensokyo, but no matter whether those outsiders left or finally settled, they had to pass through the Hakurei Shrine.

But the outsider in front of him entered Gensokyo without going through the shrine at all. Only Yakumo Zi, the ghost of Shenyin, can do this.

Hakurei Reimu is convinced that Saigo is an outsider, because he has no aura of Gensokyo's interior at all.

As long as people or monsters who have been in Gensokyo for a long time will be affected by the enchantment and their common sense will be reversed.

Such an outsider was actually accompanied by Zi Yakumo in person. In Hakurei Reimu's cognition, it could only be Zi Yakumo, the old woman's old friend in the past.

Yakumo Zi's head was full of black lines, she subconsciously raised her jade hand, and covered the lower half of her pretty face with a western-style fan, only revealing her beautiful and cold eyes.

"Little Lingmeng was joking, it's also the first time we've met this gentleman."

Yakumo Zi said with a smile, and at the same time glanced at Xixiang without any trace.

She actually regrets it now.

Gensokyo used to be located near Suwa Lake, and its geographical scope is still very large.

Although Yakumo Zi knows almost all the monsters in Gensokyo, knowing does not necessarily mean familiarity, especially some monsters have old grudges with her.

If taking Saigo to visit Gensokyo, and 27 encounters some unscrupulous person who provokes the demon to get angry, the consequences are not what Yakumozi can predict.

The good thing is that although Hakurei Reimu is also a person who doesn't choose what to say, she doesn't say too much.

Hakurei Reimu showed an 'I understand' expression.

The purple old woman also needs privacy and face, so it's normal not to admit it.

The red and white priestess just looked at Xixiang in surprise, then restrained her thoughts, and turned into that lazy look again.

Although the witch is young, she has such a personality, as if she doesn't care about anything.
