Then, we arrived at the foot of an unnamed mountain with a shrine.

Although this shrine is the only one in the small town of Omugi, the shrine has never been a rare place in Neon. Compared with a few well-known shrines, other ordinary shrines really don't have many tourists. In such a deserted place, let alone this mountain, most people don't even know what **** is enshrined in the shrine.

The stairs made of white stones extend from the foot of the mountain to the shrine. The stairs are not fair, and there are obvious artificial traces. In some places, there are even shallow cracks due to the rain and wind, but it seems that someone cleans them often. , looks very clean, so the traces of the years do not give people the impression of dilapidation, but there will be a sense of solemnity brewing.

Ride Yuuki stepped up the stairs of the shrine step by step and looked carefully.

This is not a reverence for the gods. As a powerhouse at the collapse level, Yuuki Lidou has already stood above the vast majority of gods. There is no such detached life as gods in this world without mystery. Yuuki Lidou is just a I want to see how many steps this ladder has, and how much effort it takes for the goddess Muying to clean up.

The old abbot who once adopted Tiannv Muying has long since passed away, and now Tiannv Muying is the manager of the shrine. Although it sounds very powerful, in fact, it is just a role mainly responsible for taking care of the shrine and cleaning, except for the annual shrine. Except for major festivals, the presence of the shrine is very low in the small town of Ouki-no, and now that the older generation has passed away one by one, the shrine has been in a state of no worshippers for a long time.

At the speed of a normal person, it took nearly ten minutes to walk from the foot of the mountain to the shrine Yuuki Rido sighed, looking at the red and white witch costume, who was cleaning with a large broom taller than her height The celestial girl, Muying, opened her mouth and said.

"It's still summer, and there are very few leaves. You have to be so busy. It's hard for me to imagine how tired you will be in autumn."

When the goddess Muying heard the voice, she turned her head, and when she saw Yuuki Lidou, her eyes glowed with a splendid look.

"Lidou, you're here."

The girl put the broom on the wall of the house that looked like the main hall of the shrine guarding the shrine, but actually only existed as a residence, clapped her hands, and came to Yuuki Rido.

"It's just a simple cleaning, it's nothing. Do you want to go to the shrine? Or do you want to sit for a while? Or play in the woods?"

Yuuki Rito's eyes wandered around, as the main hall that houses the body of the gods, as well as the worship hall in front of the main hall, the Temizuya, the social office, and all kinds of buildings that a shrine should have here.

However, it can be clearly seen that the gate of the main hall is closed all the year round, and the same is true of the so-called worship hall. It wasn't tap water, but lake water that came from a lake deeper in the mountains behind the shrine.

Although many parts of the shrine no longer conform to the old-fashioned regulations due to the lack of worshippers and the pressures of life on weekdays, the goddess Muying is still doing her best to make up for it. She deliberately changed into a very formal shrine costume.

However, Yuuki Lito didn't plan to pay homage, and the gods here were not qualified to let him pay homage.

One of the three gods of the neon, Susanoo, in the godslayer world, corresponds to the royal husband, but he was taken as prey by Yuuki Rido and was almost killed. Now he is paying homage to a man in Mikiko. The little gods below are just pretending.

"If you go to worship, it's free. Just walking all the way, I think if there is a god, you should be able to feel my sincerity."

"oh oh."

The goddess Muying is obviously not an old-fashioned witch. At this moment, when she hears Yuuki Rido's words, she does not show any strangeness, but maintains a full of vitality, and takes the initiative to hold Yuuki Rido's hand.

"It's been a long time since I held hands with Lidou like this, hehe, please come and sit here."

The familiar soft touch from his fingertips made Yuuki Rito smile.

"It didn't matter when a boy and a girl held hands, but now, does Ying know what it means?"

"..."

The goddess Muying didn't speak, but looked at Yuuki Lidou with those eyes that seemed to be full of vitality and pure innocence, but seemed to be extremely deep, hiding all kinds of thoughts, her hand did not let go, and Yuuki Lidou also did not loosen.

As before, the two have a very high degree of tacit understanding.

Chapter 0734 Return to the original owner?

"Can Ride tell me what happened after leaving Oukiran?"

The air and temperature in the mountains are much better than other places in Okuran. It is more common to greet Yuki Rido to sit down in the room, knowing clearly that the other party's favorite celestial maiden is not ready to entertain guests. Maicha instead poured a drink and began to curiously ask about things in Yuuki Lidou City.

What she would like to hear more is probably the situation of Yuuki Lidou's adoptive parents, but this does not mean that other things are not important to Tiannv Muying. Now there is plenty of time, Yuuki Lidou can look at Tiannv's eyes. Ying tells almost everything.

The distance from Oukiran to Ashikaga City, the way of life in Ashikaga City, the restaurant owner and the proprietress who are famous for their warm hospitality, the meeting with Kasugano Dome, and the coincidence of Nogizaka Hatsuka.

Yuuki Lito slightly modified things involving supernatural means, and talked to the goddess Megumin.

The girl listened very carefully, her bright eyes seemed to be able to speak, and she felt relaxed and happy just by watching. Still didn't say much.

Yuuki Lito naturally understood the consideration of Tiannv Meei, the work of Nogizaka Hatsuka's maid is not worthy of publicity, and it is better for the parties themselves to talk about it.

Then, it finally came to the matter of Kasugano and his wife. They got into a car accident and became a vegetative state. They were temporarily taken care of by relatives for various reasons.

The originally bright eyes of the goddess Muying also dimmed, and Yuuki Rido's words confirmed her conjecture that something bad really happened to Yuuki Rido.

"Uncle and aunt will definitely recover in the future."

The young girl comforting Yuuki Rito is a rare one. She seems a little clumsy. The goddess Muying has no experience in comforting people, but if she is the one to be comforted, she has a lot of experience.

Looking at the cute appearance of the goddess Megumin, Yuuki Rido smiled.

"Well, I believe so too, but Qiong and I will stay in Omu Ran during this time. Please take care of me in the future."

Yuuki Rito glanced at the hand holding a small cloth bag hidden under the sleeve of the shrine maiden's clothes. She did not smell the aroma of the food, and at the same time heard the sound of coins colliding from the small cloth bag. , Yuuki Lidou, who probably guessed what was in the small cloth bag, said directly.

"We haven't encountered any difficulties with money, and Xiaoying doesn't have to take out her pocket money."

"Ah, it was discovered."

The goddess Muying didn't hide anymore, she took out the small cloth bag, and still handed it to Yuuki Lidou.

"It's not pocket money, it's the money Lidou gave me when I was a child, and now it should be returned to the original owner."

At the beginning, Yuki Rido would give Tiannv Mee a few thousand yen on average every week, which lasted for nearly a year. If you calculate it carefully, it would be hundreds of thousands of yen, which is not too much for an adult. , but if you are a child, you can buy all kinds of snacks at Oukiran to fully satisfy your appetite.

However, Yuuki Lidou did not expect that the goddess Muying would not spend at all.

Looking at the small cloth bag that weighed heavily in the girl's hand, Yuuki Rido sighed.

"I didn't want you to save it like this when I gave you money."

"I understand, Li Dou wanted to help me, but my life was not too difficult at that time, so I saved the money. Now, Li Dou encountered difficulties and handed the money back to Li Dou. , is it logical?"

Isn't life too hard? In those days, the life of the goddess Muying was only enough to eat enough food, and other entertainment expenses, or even just buying new clothes, were rare things.

"No, I spend money to buy flowers, cicadas, and butterflies from you. You put in your time and energy, and I pay for money. This is an equivalent transaction. You don't owe me anything, and I don't need you to worry about these things. "

The distressed Yuuki Rido's tone was slightly vicious. While speaking, he kneaded the face of the goddess Meguy, but the goddess Meguy didn't intend to give up.

"However, after Lidou bought butterflies and cicadas from me, didn't he deliberately release them? Actually, it was never equivalent, right?"

The words of Tiannv Muying made the movements in Yuuki Lidou's hand stop, and then looked at Tiannv Muying in surprise and asked.

"How did you find out?"

At that time, Tiannv Muying was just a primary school student. It was amazing enough to understand that Yuuki Lidou bought insects to find an excuse to help her. If you add her keen observation skills, Tiannvmu would Ying's heart is a little scary.

Seeing the surprise in Yuuki Rito's eyes, the goddess Muying bowed her head in embarrassment.

"I didn't try it out, but when I was catching a cicada, I found that a cicada's wing was missing a small piece. At the beginning, I was still struggling for a while, whether I should give you that cicada with only defects, and later time I haven't been able to catch other cicadas in the forest, so I had to take it out when you came. As a result, the next day I found that cicada in the woods again, hee hee, I was a little troubled at that time After a while, I wondered if you would just throw away the bamboo cage that I spent a lot of time weaving like the cicadas released."

Yuuki Lidou didn't speak, he knew that the goddess Muying still had something to say.
