Chapter 353 352.I'll help them

  In the spring of Wajima, you can see the falling pale pink petals everywhere.

   Ke Lu Yi has never seen such a dense and chaotic cherry blossom rain.

Those who dormant for a year, only in this kind of sunshine and temperature, the petals of the flowers that bloomed for several days are falling at a speed of five centimeters per second, reminding Lu Yi of the "April Story" that is enough to obscure the field of vision. Rain cherry blossoms.

   What is more noticeable is that all these petals fall from a tree.

  You can see the giant tree that can no longer be described as towering before getting close to the port.

  Taking the entire island as the foundation, the towering trees grew on a mountain. No, Lu Zin thought at this time that it might be the giant tree that came before, and these things later.

  The huge tree canopy that is enough to cover the entire island is full of cherry blossoms. These petals are falling like snow, and even the surface of the water near the sea is covered with petals. The closer you are to Hedao, the denser the petals.

Lu Yi saw that there were people standing on the pier holding umbrellas, covering the falling petals as if they were sheltering from the rain. These people were not surprised or surprised by the cherry blossom rain. It seemed like normal wind and rain. Has long been used to it.

  “The sacred cherry blossoms of Wajima will bloom all year round and will never fade. In spring, the flowers bloom stronger, which is why this cherry blossom rain looks like this.”

  Xiadao saw Lu Yi staring at the cherry blossoms, as he came to the city as a countryman, and explained.

Through the falling petals, Lu Yi could see that the mountain that occupies one-third of the area of ​​the island is full of various trees. A long road winds upward from the foot of the mountain. It is made up of forests of torii gates, and there are some shrines along the road, up to the top of the mountain, where the tree trunks broke out of the ground, and there stood a solemn shrine.

  This is the Wada Shrine, the center of world politics, economy, and extraordinary power.

  In front of the tree trunk, Lu Zie saw a loft with a slender structure outlined by the cornices. Unlike those heavy buildings, this loft is like an island hanging high in the sky, creating a strong sense of alienation from the surroundings.

   "That is the Shenzi Pavilion, the Lord Shenzi usually in that attic, lowering clean fire for those areas that have been infested by filth."

  Xiadao explained another sentence.

  Suddenly, Lu Yi heard a ringing tone.

   is like the singing of a nightingale, and like a wind chime in the evening, crisp and sweet, like the whispering of a young girl.

   Immediately afterwards, the Shenzi Pavilion suddenly lit up a pale flame.

Lu Yi never imagined that Jinghuo would appear in front of him in this form. The burning Shenzi Pavilion was like a beacon in the dark night. For a moment, what cherry blossoms falling like rain, what towering giant trees, Even the sun faded.

  It's dark all around.

  Everything loses its color because of the burning of the net fire. The next moment, when the bell was like the harmony of church hymns, reaching the peak, an arrow shot out.

The arrow shot from the Shenzi Pavilion and flew in the direction behind Luzhan. The arrow was like a daylight shooting star, more blazing than the sun in the sky, and as it went away, everyone felt a trace of sadness in their hearts. .

  Once the God Child’s Arrow of Purifying Fire is shot, it means that another place has been attacked by filth, and mankind will lose a piece of land forever.

  When the light disappeared above the sea level, everything finally returned to normal.

  The faint melancholy is just like a haze, passing through people's hearts and minds, and everyone is back to normal work and life.

  This is the island of Hedo, the center of the world. Even if other places are attacked by filthy objects, they are still thousands of miles away. Instead of worrying about the end of a century or a millennium, it is better to take care of tomorrow’s harvest and accounts.

  There are many fishing boats near the sea. Near the dock, the boats and ships are connected to form a shaky continent. They are connected end to end to form a continuous fishing boat family.

On these boats are some old people, children, women, and the men in their family who go out to fish until the sunset. These boats have floor bunks and tables. Every evening, in the golden sparkle of the setting sun, the smoke rises to form a composition A picture full of life.

"Boat people, these people did not have a house of their own on the island, so they can only live on the boat. When the wind and rain come, their boat will be filled with a damp smell. In fact, they will at most. The streets of the pier will not enter the areas where citizens live."

  Xiadao said again, his attitude towards these fishermen is very clear.

   "Of course, they can sometimes catch a bit of fresh seafood that is not bad. If you want to taste it, you can eat it in any restaurant on Port Street."

The ship continued to circle Hedao. It was naturally not the area where the fishing boats were everywhere, but the port on the other side of Hedao. There, huge and pure white stones constitute the main body of the port, and there are countless large and small merchant ships. Passenger ships are in an endless stream, and the bustling city is like a busy city.

  It may be a bit rude to say, but this is the first time Lu Zie has seen so many people in Hedao.

  Lu Zan heard that from the main mast of the ship he was riding in, there was the knocking of copper bells, reminding other ships before and after, while the sailor standing on the observation deck was waving the flag vigorously.

   "It looks like it's at sea, and it's not too loud enough."

   Lu Yi quipped.

The meaning of the semaphore is roughly to tell other ships to leave. This is the team escorting the witches. Seeing the semaphore, most of the ships wisely stepped aside the road. Only one ship still lay ahead. Nothing. The slightest idea of ​​moving.

  On the ship was a black triple-bar pattern family crest flag. A man stood on the side of the ship and looked at the ship where the landing trip was.

"This is the banner of the Sanada family. The eldest daughter of his family is the sister of the current patriarch, and the priest of this term is the priestess. Therefore, the Sanada family has risen to become the largest family in Wajima, and they are also the most afraid of witches. One of the grown-ups."

  Xia Dao covered her mouth with the folding fan in her hand, and whispered to Lu Zie.

   "There is a problem with the boat, please be patient."

  Lu Yi saw the man on the boat with the flag saying so in semaphore.

Although the tone of    is very respectful, it still means that-"Wait."

  Hedaoren is probably in such a state. On the surface, they are respectful and friendly, but in fact they may be arrogant and rude, and if they do it on the surface, it’s all done.

  "Are we waiting?"

   Lu Yi asked, he was an outsider after all, and he didn't understand the etiquette of Hedao.

   "Wait, you can also wait, but I think Lord Sanada wants to give the Miko-sama a prestige. If this is waiting, we may have to wait until dark. We might as well find another place to stop."

  Natsushima said, she was about to wave his hand to make the captain turn the rudder.

   "That's okay."

   Lu Yi said.

   "I will help them."
