Chapter 25: Inazuma Castle
The area between Konda Village and Inazuma Castle is very prosperous, with so many small villages and gathering spots along the way that it is overwhelming.
And the villagers here have also begun to celebrate the arrival of the Mingshen Festival in their own way.
Various shops began to offer large discounts, and it was said that this was a business practice learned from Liyue.
However, the effect was surprisingly good. The streets were crowded. The road from Naganohara Fireworks Shop in Hanamisata to Yayoi Lacquerware was basically filled with small merchants and villagers from the villages around Inazuma Castle who came to purchase.
At the moment, Yaedo hasn't opened yet, so there aren't any light novels or anything like that.
Light novels are understandable, as they are a specialty of our home country where we lived a pretty good life in our previous life. Later, my hometown also developed a bit. At that time, light novels in my hometown were not as well developed as online novels, but what was Yaedo's?
There was a hint of confusion in Ren Lian Lingyi's eyes. He always felt that this Yaedang was a relatively important thing.
As we walked, we arrived at the back street. Compared with the bustling main street, the back street was obviously much quieter. However, it was not much quieter because the place where the back street connects to the main street is a snack street.
A large number of food stall owners gather here.
Ren Lian Lingyi couldn't move when he smelled the fragrance.
When the moon was high in the sky and the scattered Mora on his body was almost used up, he reluctantly left the street.
Then we arrived at the Mulou Tea House.
The Mokulo Tea House is the property of the Shebushi, and the Shebushi is actually the boss of the God Lord Renlian Lingyi.
So Ren Lian Lingyi naturally handed his ID to the person in charge of Mulou Tea House, received sponsorship from Mulou Tea House, and got a free temporary residence, and some good tea.
However, Ren Lian Lingyi didn't drink much and fell into a deep sleep. He was woken up by the noisy sounds outside in the morning.
"Mr. Narukami!"
It turns out that the reason why there was so much noise this morning was because Lord Narukami's carriage appeared in Inazuma Castle.
The cheers of the people around were getting louder and louder. Ren Lian Lingyi also saw Ming Shen. Compared with the gentle Yamato Nadeshiko last time, Ming Shen this time was more majestic, and there was no gentle smile on his face, but endless majesty.
The accompanying guards were all Oji who possessed the Eye of the Thunder Elemental God. There were also several hatamoto generals wearing standard full body iron armor at the beginning and end of the team.
The personal bodyguard was a woman with two horns on her head, and she should be a demon general named Oni Chiyo.
There are many masters with bows around. Although they don’t have the Eye of God, the aura around them is very obscure, which is the symbol of a master. These guys should be the strong ones of the Tengu clan.
Ren Lian Lingyi was observing from the top floor of the Mulou Tea House, but he found that his scrutiny seemed to have caused dissatisfaction among some big shots. After a burst of oppressive atmosphere, Ren Lian Lingyi found that the atmosphere had subsided again.
When he turned around, Lei Dianying appeared behind him.
"Gudong." Ren Lian Lingyi swallowed his saliva.
"Lord Ying." Ren Lian Lingyi quickly saluted.
"Well." Lei Dianying didn't say anything more to him and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
emmmm Ren Lian Lingyi wiped the sweat from his forehead. After being frightened like this, Ren Lian Lingyi no longer had the desire to continue watching the fun and simply enjoyed the breakfast provided by Mulou Tea House.
Ren Lian Lingyi was about to report to the shrine magistrate and Naruto-shin Grand Shrine. Alas, life as a demon is difficult.
The distance from Inazuma Castle to Narukami Taisha Shrine is actually not far at all. Ren Lian Lingyi occasionally used Thunder Rush, walked occasionally, and took in the scenery along the way. In the evening, he arrived at the outskirts of Narukami Taisha Shrine.
After showing his ID as the chief priest of Renren Shrine to an unknown lower-level shrine maiden outside, and completing the registration with Kitsunasaigumi, the chief priest of Narujin Taisha Shrine, Renren Lingyi was arranged to stay in a guest room.
Hmm~ He also discovered some familiar auras at the Narukami Taisha Shrine, and found that Kano Anko had actually arrived.
A few lower-level priestesses also arrived.
"You are really diligent." Lord Renlian showed a satisfied smile, and then asked the priestess who was preparing for the Narukami Festival about the specific procedures of the Narukami Festival seven days later.
Naruto-no-Mikoto Shrine has held countless Naruto-no-Mikoto Festivals, but in fact, apart from the chief priest of Naruto-no-Mikoto Shrine, the monster maidens in the shrine, and some high-ranking human maidens, not many people know the details of the Naruto-no-Mikoto Festival. This is because the Naruto-no-Mikoto Festival is held every ten years, and even if a low-level maiden has participated in the Naruto-no-Mikoto Festival once, she may not be a maiden when she participates in the next one.
Even if she is still a shrine maiden, how much can she remember?
It is also said that in order to prevent sneak attacks from the Dark Sea Demon, the order and specifications of each Narukami Festival are different.
However, whenever nothing goes wrong, the Narukami Festival is generally very lively.
After Ren Lian Lingyi learned the specific process from an old lady, a senior shrine maiden, he prepared to wait for the opening of the Narukami Taisha Shrine.
…
Two days passed peacefully, and suddenly, Anzi Kanno came to find Ren Lian Lingyi. When he saw this girl, Ren Lian Lingyi suddenly felt that something big might happen.
It turned out to be just as Ren Lian Lingyi had expected.
"What! You want me to guard the Dark Sea defense line?" Ren Lian Lingyi's voice was distorted.
"Yes, that's right. This is an emergency call-up. Not only you are going, but many other people and monsters are going with you." Kano Kyoko consoled her. "And the danger of being stationed in the Dark Sea is actually not that great. Just be careful not to get affected by attacks from gods, because a battlefield of that level is basically a personal show for Master Ying."
"I am just a little monster, weak, pitiful and helpless. Can I not go?"
Anzi Kano's face was full of black lines. "No."
As she spoke, Anzi Kano disappeared in a flash, and then Ren Lian Lingyi felt a pain on the back of his head and lost consciousness.
By the time Ren Lian Lingyi came to his senses, he had already arrived at the front line of the Dark Sea.
My whole head is buzzing.
"Who are you? The Ojie people?"
The sturdy men around laughed and said, "This is the logistics unit of the Aojie people. We are mainly responsible for the logistics work of Master Ying and other masters."
"Lord Blade, Lord Shadow told us that if you wake up, you should go to the archer unit." said a squad leader.
Ren Lian Lingyi sighed and followed an old man from the logistics department to the archer unit.
The so-called archer troop actually did not have many people, a total of thirty or so low-level miko archers, fifty or so shogunate army archers, a dozen Tengu archers, and several God's Eye archers.
The archer unit was led by a Tengu general.
These archers are all good ones. Among them, at least the archery skills are at level 4, and there are quite a few archers with level 5 archery skills.
There are also two or three at LV6, all of them are Tengu. The archery skill of the Tengu general is about LV7, but this guy practices orthodox archery, so his bow heart is much stronger than Ren Lian Lingyi, about LV4.
