Chapter 51: Encounter at the Shrine of the God of Misfortune
On the other side, Hina Kagiyama, who also lives in Shrine Mountain, is also in a state of just waking up. It is also very good for this god of misfortune to live here in Shrine Mountain.
With the help of Kazami Yumeng, she successfully settled down in this shrine mountain and even owned a fairly small shrine. Like the Qiu sisters, she also lived directly in the shrine.
Compared to the Aki sisters who have a huge influence on the Shrine Mountain side, Kagiyama Hina here can be said to have no influence at all on the Shrine Mountain side.
For Kagiyama Hina, life is very good now, and because of Kazami Yumu's bad taste, Kagiyama Hina received a very good miko uniform.
Compared to Reimu Hakurei's miko uniform, this miko uniform is obviously much more cumbersome, and it also has many more ribbons that make Kagiyama Hina feel confused.
But because the style of this miko costume is very similar to her own clothes, Kagiyama Hina easily accepted this miko costume, and then the miko Kagiyama Hina appeared here.
After just getting up and packing her clothes, Kagiyama Hinata walked to the front desk, which was between the torii gate of the shrine and the main building the day before yesterday. Because of the Aki sisters, there were a lot of leaves falling here.
So Kagiyama Hina is now used to sweeping the fallen leaves into a big pit with a broom every day, and then jumping up and stepping on it a few times.
"Miko, good morning."
Just when Kagiyama Hina entered the cleaning state, an old woman's voice came from the direction of the torii, and Kagiyama Hina turned around and looked over.
There were not many people coming here at this time, so after living here for a while, Kagiyama Hina was very used to the current life, and she also remembered these people who often came to the shrine.
"Hello, I still use mountain climbing to exercise as usual."
Kagiyama Hina turned her body slightly and said this with a smile. The old woman who appeared in front of Kagiyama Hina now climbed mountains for exercise.
Since the old woman discovered this shrine one time, she would come over to see Kagiyama Hina every time she went up the mountain, because people who came to the shrine felt that Kagiyama Hina was quite pitiful.
Because these people did not see anyone else when they came to the shrine, only the miko lady who called herself Kagiyama Hina was here, so these people unanimously concluded that Kagiyama Hina was the only one here.
Think about it, I saw a shrine in a deep mountain forest, but there was only a shrine maiden inside. There is something wrong with this situation, okay?
But how can I put it, Kagiyama Hina's shrine is very capable in the eyes of these people, because many of these people have encountered accidents, but before those accidents, Kagiyama Hina gave the amulet.
Because the people who can come here have passed through Kazami Yumu's magic circle, so these people believe in gods and can worship the existence of gods, so these people think that everything they have is all because of the amulet.
Because of the amulet given by this shrine maiden, they were able to survive those accidents safely, which gave these people the idea of ​​returning to this shrine.
And what are those amulets given by Kagiyama Hina? In fact, they are nothing. They are just ordinary amulets made from a small object given by Yumu Kazami. They have ordinary materials and ordinary structures.
At most, these amulets can present the [bad luck] in people according to a visible situation. If the [bad luck] in the body reaches a certain level, the amulet will be broken.
What will these humans think after the amulet is broken? Of course, they will return to the shrine to pay homage once, and then take the next amulet from Kagiyama Hina's hand.
Because the person who handed over the amulet was the God of Misfortune, Kashiyama Hina, and everyone came with [bad luck] on them, Kagiyama Hina's job was to extract [bad luck] from these people who came to the shrine.
In addition, these people who come to the shrine to worship basically come to the shrine once a day, so unless they encounter some big event, these amulets will not be broken easily.
However, Yumu Kazami's magic circle selected a bunch of people for Kagiyama Hina who seemed to be prone to getting into trouble to come to her shrine, so during this period at least four or five people had gotten into trouble.
When the visitor leaves here, Kagiyama Hina usually gives out an amulet. Anyway, this amulet can be made by just throwing some earth, rocks or wood into the small part that Yumu Kazami gave her.
Anyway, it seems that Kagiyama Hina is living quite well in this world where no one knows her. These people even give Kagiyama Hina some delicious food from time to time.
Anyway, after only staying here for less than ten days, Kagiyama Hina fell in love with this place. In addition, because of Kazami Yumu, her job of collecting [bad luck] was guaranteed, which made it even more...
alright.
There are still things that make Kagiyama Hina even more happy, because these old people are indeed providing her with faith. In the past, Kagiyama Hina didn't even dare to think about this kind of thing, okay?
Who would provide faith to the God of Misfortune? Kagiyama Hina would not believe in such a thing. If it were not for the special nature of this world, she felt that such a thing would be impossible.
"Yes, running here and back again is a good exercise for an old woman like me, and it won't cause overexertion."
The old woman can be said to be very talkative at this time. At least Kagiyama Hina feels that this is indeed a very spiritual being, much more energetic than the poor god over there.
Because they were responsible for similar places, Kagiyama Hina and Igami Shion were familiar with each other, but what should I say? Because of that guy's attitude, Igami Shion didn't really like going to that guy.
Although there was no such possibility, Kagiyama Hina felt that if it weren't for Igami Shion's presence, it was not just once that Igami Shion would starve to death.
"Then do you want to drink some water? The hot water has just been boiled, or do you want some tea? But for tea, you still need to wait for a while."
Such words came out of Kagiyama Hina's mouth, she walked aside, put down the broom, and then extended an invitation to the old woman.
She didn't quite understand how Yumu Kazami made so many weird appliances. Anyway, she felt that Yumu Kazami had tried to recreate all human utensils with magic.
Although it is said to be used for one hour, the time required to charge is likely to be three to four hours. For Kagiyama Hina, the only thing that can be used without interruption is the clock.
However, Kagiyama Hina can also understand why other things need to be charged but the clock does not, after all, the clock does not seem to consume much energy.
"Oh, thank you. It just so happens that I have to wait for my useless grandson."
The smiling old woman easily accepted the kindness. This time she didn't just come by herself, she also brought her grandson with her.
As for why? The main reason was that the amulet from before protected her from being hit by the two cars. That incident made her understand that the amulet given by the witch was indeed very useful.
At that time, she was standing on the roadside talking to her child, and then she was hit by a car with her child. At that time, she felt a little bad, right?
If it weren't for the later check-up in the hospital, when her child was fine, she relaxed a little, then turned around and checked the monitoring at that time.
Then she watched two cars collide on the road, then rushed in her direction, separated before hitting her, and then hit her child.
At that time, she would feel that she was very lucky, but when she returned to the hospital, she noticed that the amulet given to her by the miko lady had been broken.
After that, she communicated with other people she met at the shrine, and everyone agreed that it was because of the amulet that she survived the incident safely.
So at this time, she just brought her grandson over to express her gratitude. As for expressing her gratitude, she thought it would be better to provide some daily necessities.
After all, this shrine is halfway up the mountain, and there is only one girl here. It should be difficult to obtain these things, right?
So when people I met at this shrine gave me things like oil, salt, rice, various foods, kitchen knives, iron pots, etc.
"Grandma..."
It was also at this time that the grandson of the old woman came to the torii gate of the shrine. Although the old woman was walking in front, how could an old man walk so fast?
So her grandson is also following closely behind her, but this one's situation is not so good, because he is still carrying a lot of things.
"Ah, did you bring something here again? I told you that I still have friends to take care of me for the time being."
Looking at the boy and the girl next to him, Kagiyama Hina subconsciously said these words, and then looked at the old woman with a little worry.
At this time, she wanted to go over and help, but wouldn't it be good if she did this? After all, the influence of Sister Qiu's shrine has already reached this area.
So in terms of food, Kagiyama Hina can really be said to have everything, and her [misfortune] will not affect her like Igami Shion's [misfortune].
As long as she is willing to work hard to find it, she will definitely not be short of food. Moreover, Kagiyama Hina is not a lazy existence, so her food reserve is already sufficient.
However, at this time, the old woman asked her grandson to bring a lot of things, which was a bit unnecessary no matter how she thought about it.
"How can you say that? Let me tell you, before I..."
At this time, the old woman also talked to Kagiyama Hina about what she had encountered before, and Kagiyama Hina also appropriately showed that she was listening.
The young man over there felt a little depressed when he saw this scene. His grandma didn't care about him at all. Didn't he say that there was such a thing as intergenerational kiss? Could that be a certain sister of his family?
The girl who was following the boy looked at the boy's expression and smiled. Compared to the boy who didn't know anything, she knew why he came here.
But this is the shrine that is spread among that small circle... Hmm? The girl seems to have discovered something extraordinary.
"Sister Hina! I'm coming over here...and Jinggu? Why are you here?"
At this time, Yuba Zaki, carrying a large bag of things, appeared in front of everyone, but this person did not come in directly from the torii gate of the shrine like the others, but emerged from between the trees.
.
After looking at the current location of Yu Tingzhi and adding the location of the shrine, the three people who came up from the mountain realized after being stunned for a while that this girl ran straight up from the mountain.
The reason why Yuba Zaki appears here is because Kagiyama Hina asked her to purchase some things, so she appears here at this time, and she should not be the only one who should appear, right?
"Slow down, Zhai Xi...Eh? Hello, why are you here."
What appeared behind Yuba Zaki was Maya Katase and Haruno Hime, who didn't carry much. When these two came out, they saw the young girl standing there in a daze for the first time.
When Maya Katase was talking, Otonashi Io and Tsui, the two boys who had taken on most of the work, emerged from behind.
Neither of these two groups thought that they would see their classmates in this place, and their postures were so similar... This can only be described by the word fate, right?
"As I said, I have friends to help me, but it turns out you are classmates."
At this time, Kagiyama Hina walked over and took off the boy's things. Since she and Otonashi Io knew a few people and were in the same age group, they were only classmates, right?
Then when passing by the old woman, Kagiyama Hina said the first two sentences, and when she reached the young man, she said the last sentence, and then reached out and picked up the things the young man was carrying with one hand.
Although she is not good at fighting, Kagiyama Hina is a non-human being, and she is a kind of monster with no negative status, so Kagiyama Hina's physical fitness is still there.
Carrying these things, Kagiyama Hina roughly understood what the old woman had brought, but these things happened to be among the things brought by Otonashi Igo and others.
So Kagiyama Hina was a little hesitant at this time, but looking at the old woman's expression, she still carried these things and led everyone into the shrine.
The next thing is probably for this group of people to explain to each other why they met at this shrine. After all, the expressions of these people now are very confused.
These boys and girls really never thought that they would see each other at this point in Kagiyama Hina's shrine.
