My weird life

call!

Putting the clothes on, Su Wu followed Damugang and ran out.

A gust of cold wind blows in the face,

He couldn't help but shudder.

When he and Damu arrived at the sword-making workshop in the morning, it had just rained, so the temperature must have been lower at that time.

But at that time, Su Wu didn't feel the slightest chill.

At the moment, he was shivering due to the cold wind.

——He entered the simulation with his consciousness, and his real body stayed outside, so he could feel the unusualness of this cold wind even more.

Su Wu and Damu ran out of the sword making place.

The road mixed with stones and mud stretches forward,

There are wooden houses and shops lined up on the street.

Under the eaves of some houses, various pieces of cloth are spread, and various goods are placed on the cloth pieces - these should be stalls set up by traveling merchants. Today, the stalls are still there, but the merchants and vendors have disappeared!

They didn't have time to pack their things,

Go and avoid this coming night by yourself first!

It can be seen that Tianhei is indeed a very scary environment in the perception of Dongliu Island people!

Su Wu raised his head and looked at the sky.

The setting sun on the horizon was trembling, and was about to fall below the tallest wooden building at the end of the sight.

It has no power to shine,

I am immersed in a dim yellow color,

The dim yellow color spread from the sunset around the sky to all parts of the sky. Su Wu and Da Mu only walked a dozen steps, and the entire sky turned dim yellow.

The dim yellow renders the houses and the earth into this color.

Even the white face of the big tree in front turned sallow.

"Dang!" "Dang!" "Dang!"

At this time, rapid and continuous bells came from a temple outside the market.

It's like urging those who haven't gone home yet to get home as soon as possible.

When Su Wu saw Da Mu, his face turned pale with fear.

So he called out: "Damu!

Haruko——Miss, you should have gone home by this time!

Let’s go home first too!

If it's too late, it'll be too late! "

Damu hesitated for a moment when he heard this, and then shook his head vigorously and refused: "No, no! Don't you know the lady's personality? She asked us to pick her up, and she will definitely wait for us to pick her up at the same place!

If we can't pick her up,

She will die in this dark sky! "

Is this 'Miss Haruko' so stubborn?

Don't you know how to escape when disaster strikes?

Su Wu changed his mind and did not give any more advice to Da Mu. He and Da Mu walked through the muddy road and ran towards a corner of the market.

He is currently simulating with his consciousness and does not care about his own life or death.

In fact, he has no feelings for these people at the moment - whether it is Damu, his companion, or the craftsman who inked him, so he doesn't care so much about the life and death of others.

Putting life and death of yourself and others aside,

He really wanted to get in touch with the current night on Dongliu Island,

See what horrors there are in this night.

Therefore, Da Mu's choice was exactly what he wanted.

Tap tap tap!

The footsteps of the two people echoed in the empty street.

When turning a corner,

Su Wu saw a mud house at the corner.

The two doors of the mud house opened,

A woman wearing a Wu uniform, with a few hairpins in her hair, her face so white that she didn't know how many layers of powder she had applied, her lips as red as a strawberry, and her eyebrows painted very thick and short, stood between the two doors, looking towards Su Wu and Damu waved their hands.

Su Wu felt a cold and mysterious charm from the woman.

Da Mu looked nervous and reminded Su Wu in a low voice: "Don't go there!

Otherwise, we will have to go to the 'Clay Girl Temple' to see you tomorrow! "

He saw Su Wu observing the woman in Wu clothes for a long time.

He thought that the other party was bewitched and wanted to respond to the Wufu woman's beckoning, so he approached the mud house behind the door where he was standing.

Su Wu felt that the charm exuded by this 'Wufu woman' was not strong.

According to the seven levels of weirdness classified by the Weird Countermeasures Department,

The ‘Wufu woman’ should be the lowest level of ‘evil spirit’.

Damu seemed to know something about Li Wei.

It can be seen that most ordinary people in this place know that the 'Wu Fu Woman' is a very strange person. If this is the case, why don't you think of ways to drive it away or imprison it?

Even if the evil spirit level is less dangerous,

But once an accident occurs, it must be at the cost of one or even several lives!

"Abu, the craftsmen at the sword-making workshop and the priests at Soseki Shrine have said that many monsters are the spirits of mountains, rivers, vegetation, and even things. As long as we don't come into contact with them, they will not take the initiative to harm us.

Have you forgotten what the master craftsman and the priest said?

Why did you just..." Walking past the mud house where the woman in Wu clothes stood, Da Mu couldn't help but complain to Su Wu in a low voice.

It seems that Su Wu's previous behavior was a bit out of line.

He actually wanted to take the initiative to contact Li Jui.

"The craftsmen and priests have said this - are they right?

Has no one here died from Li Jui’s attack anymore? "When Su Wu heard what Damu said, he immediately thought that Dongliu Island had mastered some special method. As long as people did not take the initiative to contact Li Wei, they could avoid being attacked by Li Wei and die as a result.

So he asked Damu seriously.

Damu looked at him,

Opened his mouth.

After a while, he lowered his head and said calmly: "How is this possible? People still die every day. Yesterday, Xiao Quan's parents, grandfather, and his sister were all killed by Li Gui."

‘It seems that what the priest and craftsman said is not right either…’ This sentence lingered in Su Wu’s mind for a moment, but he did not say it out loud.

Based on his superficial understanding of Dongliu Island,

The people of Dongliu Island are quite arrogant, and they should have a deep-rooted trust in people with a profession like priests.

The sky is getting darker and darker,

Yellow to a bit black.

Da Mu became even more anxious and ran wildly, occasionally looking back at Su Wu who was following behind him.

——Su Wu has seen that Da Mu has a timid character. Every time he looks back, he mainly checks to see if his companions are following him. If no one is accompanying him, he would not have the guts to go out to find someone at this time.

At that moment, Su Wu didn’t know the road yet.

If he knows the way,

You might as well go ahead.

Soseki Shrine is located in this bustling market area where most wooden houses are built, with a few mud houses and stone houses.

A torii gate painted in vermilion stands in front of the shrine.

There are several tall soy sauce-colored wooden pavilions behind it, which are the main body of the shrine.

At this time, the architecture of these shrines was very different from that of the high Tang Dynasty.

There is no distinction between "holding a building" and "breaking the wind" like in later generations. Dongliu Island completely copied the various rituals, architectural styles, and culture of the Tang Dynasty, and evolved and eroded them in the following years.

Little by little, these things that belong to Taiya are turned into their own things.

In front of the stone tablet that introduces the history of the shrine and mainly worships the gods, a girl wearing a snow-white silk top and a long red skirt, wearing a beautiful witch costume, stands there holding an umbrella.

Her delicate and sweet face was full of resentment,

There was a feeling of gnashing of teeth.

Su Wu and Damu ran over from the street on the side. Damu stretched his head and saw 'Miss Haruko' with resentment on her face. She immediately shuddered and pushed Su Wu to let Su Wu go ahead.

Su Wu didn't care about this and walked directly to the shrine, his eyes falling on the beautifully dressed woman.

It seems to be the clothing worn by women,

He has seen it in many anime and games,

This kind of clothing is slightly different from the clothing in later Toryu Island animations and games, but it can still be recognized at a glance. This is the clothing that the Toriu Island shrine maidens will wear on formal occasions such as shrine sacrifices.

This lady from the ‘Inoue family’,

She's actually a witch?

It makes sense,

The highest-level shrine on Dongliu Island has always used royal princesses as shrine maidens to show the seriousness and legitimacy of worshiping gods.

As a shrine maiden, the royal princess is also known as the ‘Saio’.

In this way, it is normal for the women from the public, noble, and wealthy families to become shrine maidens.

After all, this kind of thing is always glorious.

"Why did you come just now?!"

Seeing Su Wu and Damu approaching, 'Miss Qingzi' became even more anxious. She clenched the oil-paper umbrella in her hand, her eyes wanting to spit fire, "Didn't we agree that we would go to Mingqing Village to catch hares together today? ?

It's getting dark now,

How else to go? ! "

Go to the village to catch hares?

Su Wu looked at Qingzi's childish and sweet face, and then looked at the equally childish Damu next to him, and realized that he was actually the same young man as them at the moment.

The life of young people is always full of curiosity and yearning.

He didn't speak,

Wait for Da Mu to take the initiative to say something.

Damu looked up at the sky with a sad face: "Miss, it's too late. Let's go catch rabbits tomorrow - if we delay any longer, we may not be able to get home!"

"Well!

There is a saying in the prosperous Tang Dynasty: a gentleman's words are hard to chase!

You have broken the promise between gentlemen,

Should be punished for this! "Qingzi raised her plain chin, her eyes flashing with cunning light, "Put your heads over here! "

"Hey..." Damu was dejected, and he bowed and lowered his head as expected.

Haruko looked at Abu who was standing still, feeling a little anxious inside.

But in order to establish prestige in front of his subordinates,

She said nothing to relax today!

"Abu!

Why don't you lower your head?

Don’t you want to be a gentleman? " Haruko urged.

Su Wu shook his head without changing his expression: "I don't want to."

"Since you..." Qingzi didn't even hear Su Wu's words, so she was about to express her own opinion. However, she didn't know that the other party didn't follow her thoughts and directly said two words, "I don't want to" to prepare her. All the words were blocked back.

She couldn't help being stunned: "Eh?"

Immediately his cheeks turned red: "Then you have also broken your promise, please put your head over here!"

"Miss,

The reason why I broke my promise to you is to fulfill a greater promise to the craftsman.

Fulfilling the craftsman's promise means working hard to fulfill Master Inoue's expectations for me.

There is a saying in the prosperous Tang Dynasty that goes: There is an order of superiority and inferiority, and there are differences between elders and younger ones. If you do not follow the order of superiority and inferiority between elders and younger ones, you will not be able to be called a gentleman, and your etiquette will be ruined, and your music will be ruined, and you cannot be called a 'gentleman'.

Miss Haruko, since you hope to be a gentleman,

Do you want me to go against the expectations of Mr. Inoue, your father?

To fulfill our commitment to you? "Su Wu looked at the girl seriously.

Qingzi stayed for a long time.

His expression became even more depressed, but he didn't say anything in the end.

The oil-paper umbrella she held in her hand did not hit Damu or Su Wu on the head. Instead, she said angrily: "Let's go, go home!"
