''It happened that a familiar guy came." Xiaobai said.
"Xiaobai, are you recruiting new customers? What's your plan this time?"
The man walked to the grocery store and asked the store manager a question in a lazy and mocking tone.
The man is a hunter.
"This guy is a very smart hunter."
"Despite her rough appearance, her skills are pretty good and she often wins prizes in competitions here."
"You guy, please don't introduce me to someone all of a sudden without knowing anything. What are you planning on doing with a guy who only thinks about business?" Ahu said.
"I am kind enough to introduce you to the guests. We both have business, so why not? This eldest sister is interested in things in the mountains." Xiaobai said.
"When it comes to things in the mountains, just ask me. I am Ahu. Please give me some advice, eldest sister." Ahu said.
"I am Shen Naizi. Although I don't know what the mountain you are talking about is, it seems to be something useful to me."
'I, leave it to me.'
"What two interesting people."
"I'm also curious, boss, are you really selling things here?" Kanako said.
Under the clear sky, the fluffy clouds move at an neither fast nor slow pace, and the emerald green branches and leaves sway with the gusts of wind, as if to reveal the vitality of nature.
The sunlight fell through the gaps in the leaves, shining softly on Frog's body.
With a joyful and peaceful expression, she let go of her mind and quietly stared at the scenery she saw on the big tree as usual.
I have thought about Gensokyo and this scenery for less than a day, but I still feel nostalgic.
What echoes it silently in my heart is the memory of the distant past, a time when the wind was still pure and the earth was still green.
In fact, ordinary gold can be seen everywhere in Japan.
That simplicity is also the most beautiful scenery in her eyes.
Unfortunately, nature is declining now, even areas that still retain some ancient customs are no exception.
It was already far away from the appearance that Frogzi remembered when he was chasing Xingming.
As the God of Earth, she rarely visits her hometown, but she still knows that all places face the same problems.
Nostalgia is a common behavior among human beings. Life that has received human thoughts for a long time will inevitably be infected with the same atmosphere.
When did you start having such an idea?
The beauty I saw every day in the past will probably only exist in my memory.
However, the wounds that I had been heartbroken and distressed about seemed to be healed at this moment.
It is indeed not an exaggeration to say that this is the last paradise.
It was the same as when the three of us looked at Gensokyo together in the morning.
Frogzi's chest was filled with the real feeling that coming here had its value.
But for a moment, the image of my hometown came to mind.
Then he wiped it quietly.
Frog understands that comparison is meaningless.
Frogzi is her irreplaceable hometown, the land she has ruled and retains all her memories and longings.
And starting from today, this will be the second land.
So it's nothing to compare with. She thinks she will like it here, she just needs to accept it step by step.
"Thank you." Frogzi's character is indeed stubborn.
But he also has a temperament that will not be restrained by any restrictions after seeing it through.
It is precisely because of this that he and Shen Naizi can manage a piece of land together.
At this moment, I'm afraid there's no one more open-minded than Frogzi.
"You too."
"At first, when I brought you here with me, I was worried that this place wouldn't be good enough. But it turns out I was too worried."
He waved his arms with a big movement, and several white lights flew out from Frogzi's sleeves.
The light flew across a certain distance and then disappeared, as if it had entered the Great Emperor.
Only Frogzi knows the true identity of the white light.
Then she jumped down from the tree and headed to the place she found with light steps.
Putting aside her identity for the time being, she just wants to enjoy everything here? Be a free and unrestrained person.
"That's right right here."
"Go west and north and keep going until you reach a sea of trees surrounded by black smoke at the top."
Turning around to look around? Kannaiko recalled the scenery he had just seen in the sky.
According to the local saying, this area is called Monster Mountain. The lush vegetation stretches from the bottom of the mountain to the foot of the mountain, forming a sea of trees.
Continuing to look up, you can see that the mountain is not too steep, but the height is not too low.
Black smoke is constantly rising from the top of the highest peak? Point out that this is an active volcano.
Searing Assault makes people feel that vitality.
“What a great place.”
"There should be high-quality spiritual veins underground? The quality of this mountain as a spiritual land is really good."
Shen Naiko took a step forward.
She was very satisfied with the environment of this mountain. It was solemn and beautiful, with a sense of inviolable sanctity.
It can be said that there is nothing picky about it. The only thing that makes her feel why? It is the fact that this place is called the Mountain of Monsters.
"It's named so because there are monsters living there."
"Otherwise, it's okay to call this the Mountain of the Gods."
Stepping over dead branches on the ground, Shen Naizi silently pondered this little question that made her curious.
The mountain forest is originally the nest of monsters? It is also the resting place for various nature gods, and it is a mysterious gathering place separated by a thin line.
She really felt that there were many monsters in this mountain, and logically speaking, it should be filled with evil spirits and ominousness.
But that's not the case at all.
It seems that this mountain is unusual.
Forget it, wait till we get to the mountain god here? Just ask him for clarification.
The temperament of the mountain will change with the mountain god. It seems that the god here is not a simple guy.
"Then let's get down to business first, blow up Sister Qiu first."
"Otherwise, I will disappoint the store manager's map and the hunter's special advice."
Step by step, in order to get rid of the natural problems in Gensokyo, Kannako used an inefficient way of searching for people.
"If you look for a specific monster, even a god can't see Hao Zhao."
But it’s too easy for God to notice each other’s existence.
If you are a little wary, you will always react a little when you find that an unseen life has invaded your territory.
"Then I wonder who I will find in the sleeping county." Shen Naizi was in a happier mood, humming a ditty.
The road that stretches into the mountain is unobstructed. It is like a tangent line cut beautifully from the sea of trees. The gravel can be felt to be an artificial passage.
In the quiet air, Shen Naizi felt that there were many eyes looking at him.
She didn't take it seriously at all, and the generous player seemed to deliberately want those eyes to be seen clearly.
There is nothing more pleasant than a disciple who proudly declares himself.
A smile appeared on his face.
"We've only been gone for a short time, so now it's a tie."
The journey of searching for someone seemed to have ended just as it began.
A person with the same girlish appearance as Kannako appeared not far away.
Although they have human appearances, they cannot hide the aura of gods.
Everything went smoothly, both as a coincidence and as a necessity.
Soon the three of them were relieved.
Sister, look, it’s a god.
With a voice full of vitality, the girl eating her feet approached with brisk steps, and a sweet aroma came to her.
The aroma, which is neither strong nor light, is like the sweet smell of roasted sweet potatoes. Smelling it a few times will make you relax.
The girl's fair face also wore the same sweet smile, giving people a soft and friendly feeling in a very short period of time.
Looking behind the girl, I could see another girl with the same face.
But she showed a completely different temperament.
The maple leaf-shaped hair accessory is pinned to the side, and even the suit she is wearing is a sharp red leaf color. The girl has a quiet and quiet aura, as if autumn has reappeared on her body.
She nodded towards Kannaiko to say hello.
Judging from the hat girl's call just now, they should be sisters.
"Good afternoon, I'm very happy to meet you. I didn't expect that I met your handsome man just when I was planning to find him."
"Thank you for coming all the way to see us."
"This is really a rare visitor. He was probably a human being who came to the mountains to find us in an urgent matter. I didn't expect that he would meet a god in a few days."
'It's been a long time since this happened.'
"It's a bit surprising, because there aren't many gods in Gensokyo."
"Well, although there are many gods, that's not the case with gods." Qiu Jingye said.
"After all, monsters and fairies are the most common in Gensokyo. Due to the small number of humans, even the birth of gods will be affected."
'Then, may I ask where you are from?'
"Judging from the feeling, it doesn't look like an ordinary eight million lives."
"I'm sorry to be rude, I should give my name. My name is Kannako. I was a member of Izumo at first, and until yesterday, I was the wind god in charge of the area."
"Our shrine came to Gensokyo this morning, and I would like to ask for your advice."
‘It’s the God Clan, it scared me.’
"People from Izumo are rare."
"Speaking of which, there are more people in Takamagahara, so it's not like we chose to stay in Gensokyo."
"Okay, don't talk too much, it's our turn to introduce ourselves."
"We are the lives in charge of the autumn of Gensokyo. I am Qiu Shizuha and this is Qiu Langzi."
"Hello, I am the life in charge of the harvest. Please give me your advice."
"Please take good care of me in the future."
"Your Highness came from Frogzi, right? It seems to be in the past. Are you alone?" Qiu Jingye said.
"No, besides me, my miko and another friend also came over. There are three of us in total."
"This also includes my shrine and lake."
"What a generous move." Qiu Rongzi said.
"Your shrine must be very impressive. I wish you and your group can adapt to life here as soon as possible."
"If you need anything, let us know and we will try our best to help."
'I think so too, thank you in advance.'
"How about talking about that place? It always feels weird to stand in the middle of the road and talk."
"That's right, Your Highness Shen Naizi, are you in a hurry? If not, let's find a place to sit down and talk."
"no problem.
"I also plan to take the opportunity to figure out the current environment." Shen Naiko said.
"We found the water source, but the fog here is so thick."
"It's obvious that it's broad daylight, but there's such a fog. Is it really a natural formation?" Frogzi said.
Standing alone by the lake, Frogzi tried his best to look at the misty scenery. He followed the water vapor along the way and finally arrived at the lake.
At first glance, I had a sense of the boundless vastness of the sea, but then I realized that it was just an illusion.
It feels like fire is an illusion.
Frogzi still doesn't know that this lake has no name. It's just called the Lake of Mist because it's always surrounded by thick fog.
With the wind blowing around the mist, civilization is obviously lower than other places, but it is not a good place to escape the heat in late summer.
She initially judged the size of the lake.
"On its own, the lake doesn't look like stagnant water."
After reaching out and touching the water, Frogzi found that only the surface of the lake was hazy.
Surprisingly, the lake water is very clear and tastes very Okada.
"I don't know where this is going.
When I was observing the lake, I found a school of fish.”
"Just grab a few and take them back, so Sanae can worry less. Regarding the ingredients, please thank me."
"Don't run away, fishes."
"Fortunately, skills have some legs."
"But I think you are not wary enough, so I just accept my fate."
"It doesn't use any abilities and relies solely on catching with both hands. Looking at the fish caught in the big bucket, Frogzi is quite proud.
Just leave it like this.
This way you can catch a little more.
"Okay, let's let some go and leave the rest to Sanae to worry about," Frogzi said.
Looking at the fish in the bucket, Frog began to challenge those who should be released.
Go home now.
In this way, Frogzi released some of the fish he caught.
What a nice place.
Although it is a closed environment, it does feel good to make people miss you here.
It's been a long, long time since I felt so relaxed physically and mentally.
"Guys who have been angry with us are really suitable for retirement, aren't they, Kannako?"
It's just that you will definitely dislike him too early.
"Today's is also a masterpiece. We are indeed the strongest and greatest."
I heard the sound of someone approaching.
It was a smaller girl.
She is floating in the air, and her hair and eyes are almost all blue.
The most dazzling thing is that her wings are also made of ice crystals.
Just by looking at the features, Frogzi knew who the other person was.
There is absolutely no mistake, there is an ice and snow fairy in front of me.
"What's inside, please take your time."
"You said this, of course it is this."
"This is the work of my malice."
"Haha, if you want it, I won't give it to you."
"Bring me the treasure if you want."
Looking at the masterpiece he was talking about, the ice fairy in front of him put on a proud attitude.
This kind of frog is called a frog as a symbol, which makes people angry and anxious.
"You arrogant brat." Frogzi said.
"What a kid, don't call me wrong, we can be the strongest Cirno."
"You dwarf should remember this carefully."
"There's something wrong with you, and you dare to call me short even if you don't follow the rules."
"Anyway, I don't care what you are, just restore the frog to its original state."
"Restore what?"
"Did you say thawing?" "No problem, that's what I came to the lake to do. Take a good look at my expression."
As soon as she finished speaking, Cirno threw the big ice cube in her hand. The transparent ice cube was thrown high into the sky and refracted into colorful lights under the sunlight.
Then the gravity fell and the impact with the water surface instantly disintegrated into pieces.
The frog inside did not know whether he was alive or dead and had sunk to the bottom of the water.
"Ah." Frogzi said; "What are you doing, you bastard?"
'What.'
"Isn't it just thawing?"
'It's a pity it's not pretty.'
'But there are a lot of frozen frogs.'
"Only I can make this masterpiece."
'But if you take off your hat and ask me, I can help you.'
'Give me an assistant.'
"Stinky goblin, you don't have the awareness to appreciate flowers and life."
"Aren't you also catching fish?"
'Stop immediately and reflect.'
‘I don’t understand what you are saying.’ “Anyway, don’t point at me.”
"Your brain has a problem."
Cirno also wanted to pick up the board.
But an iron block hit it on the head.
"You actually kicked me."
"Don't be afraid, little guy, wait until Owen kills it."
