1086 I'm used to seeing unscrupulous witches, so let's meet the disciplined witches
Yakumo Murasaki, the great sage of monsters, is also the strongest monster in the current era. There are only a handful of people who can compare with her in this world. Even in the hearts of most monsters, there is only the aloof king and the flower of the four seasons.
Only when the master of the wind sees the fragrance can he keep pace with it.**(..)
However, few people know that in this dilapidated shrine, there is a young miko, whose strength is not inferior to Yakumo Murasaki.
"Why do you do such boring things every time I come here?" Yakumo Purple stepped forward through the thick snow on the ground and looked at the miko on the roof.
"It's not boring." The witch said while repairing the roof that had a transparent hole dug out by the snow. "Look, this hole is almost repaired."
"What's the point of repairing such a dilapidated shrine?" Yakumo Murasaki said lightly. This shrine is not only ancient in style, but also very old. It is in tatters everywhere. It looks like a mountain temple that has been abandoned for many years.
It feels like, in her opinion, it has nothing good except for the slightly pleasant location.
The witch didn't take it seriously and said with a smile: "Although this shrine is a little dilapidated, it is the place where I have always lived. It is the most meaningful thing to be able to let it continue to exist on this land with my own hands.
"
"With your strength, you can obviously get better..." Yakumo Zi sighed.
The witch smiled softly, "Yes, I just want to make it better now, because this is my home."
"..." Yakumo Murasaki was stunned for a moment, but she didn't say anything else. She was thinking about home... There are indeed many things in human thinking that we don't understand. Why are we so obsessed with the word home?
What kind of feeling... I seem to have never had it before,
"It seems a bit cold outside. Would you like to go inside and have a cup of tea? Zi."
Yakumo Zi was lost in thought when she suddenly heard the miko's voice. She suddenly came back to her senses, raised her head and said, "No, I don't want to drink the dust too."
The witch was startled. She suddenly understood what it meant and couldn't help but smile: "That's true. Although I am very confident in my craftsmanship, I can't control the dust falling."
After saying this, both of them stopped talking. The miko was still concentrating on repairing the roof, while Yakumo Murasaki stood on the snow and watched quietly. Of course her purpose here was not to watch the miko repair the house, but just for a while.
After spending time together, I got to know the character of the miko to some extent, so I didn't bother her.
Not long after, the witch finally jumped down from the roof, clapped her hands and said, "Okay, now you don't have to worry about heavy snow drifting into the house, after working for most of the day.{http:

Updates uploaded by friends} I’m a little hungry too...Zi, do you want to come with me?"
"I didn't come to your house just for free." Although Yakumo Purple said this, she still followed the miko into the shrine... It was obvious that she was the type who said she didn't want to, but was very honest with her body.
The miko's lunch was very simple, consisting of two steamed buns, a bowl of vegetables and a bowl of clear soup. Although Yakumo Purple wasn't very picky about food, she couldn't help but frown when she saw such things in front of her, "You can eat it all day long.
this?"
"Yes, can't it?" the witch asked.
Yakumo Murasaki sighed again, "The shrine you live in is so shabby. I can understand it, but it's a bit too much when it comes to eating... I don't remember that there is a rule that miko must be vegetarian, so why do you have to wrong yourself so much?"
"Because I have no money." The witch gave a very sighing answer.
Yakumo Murasaki did sigh, and she was speechless. The explanation of having no money might be normal to ordinary people, but it really didn't make sense to the miko in front of her... With her extremely strong strength, she could just go out and search for something.
That's a lot of income. Of course, Yakumo Murasaki also knows that although this miko is powerful, she will never bully the weak. Asking her to do things like stealing, robbing and abducting is simply worse than killing her.
Still difficult.
However, even without such extreme measures, this witch who can help people pray for blessings, cure diseases, and eliminate disasters does not have a penny in her hands. Why?
Of course Yakumo Murasaki knows the reason, because this miko never charges money for helping others. Whether it's treating a disease or praying for blessings, she does her best and the problem is solved, but she doesn't charge any money from the person being helped, or even the other person.
I offered to give her gifts, but she firmly refused.
Yakumo Zi couldn't understand, is she a fool or a bad person?
"Do you think I'm stupid for doing this?" Looking at Yakumo Murasaki's expression, the miko probably guessed what she was thinking and asked with a smile.
"Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?" Yakumo Zi asked.
"It seems that the truth must not sound good." The witch put down her chopsticks, her face still had that gentle smile, but there was a little more yearning in her eyes, "Actually, I understand what you are thinking, but for me, the reward has already been
I have received it... Looking at those people who are troubled by disasters and diseases, I can use my power to help them and let them live healthy, that is the best reward."
“You only help others for the sake of helping others?”
"Yes, I am very satisfied if everyone can accept my help."
"Sure enough, it's still stupid." Yakumo Murasaki seemed to be dismissive of the great sentiments of the miko, and sneered, "Since humans are so important in your heart, why do you go to help monsters? Don't you know that monsters can eat them?
Human?"
"I know." The witch's smile remained unchanged, "It's just that what I value is not just humans. To be precise, what I love is life. Whether it is humans, monsters, or other animals, they are all equal in my heart. I
I love them, so when they are in trouble, I will help them... As for monsters eating people, it is just for survival, just like humans slaughter livestock for survival, it is the same."
The miko's words were spoken easily, but Yakumo Murasaki was stunned when she heard this. She suddenly realized that this miko was actually very similar to her.
"I see, but since this is the case, you can no longer eat this plate of green vegetables, because it is also life." As she spoke, Yakumo Murasaki brought the only dish on the table to herself.
The witch shook her head after seeing it for a while, and said with a wry smile: "It seems to be true. It seems that I can only drink from the northwest wind in the future."
That's what the miko said, but her subordinates were not slow at all. When Yakumo Purple wasn't paying attention, her chopsticks moved like lightning, and then a small pile of green vegetables appeared on her steamed bun.
"What a miko who says one thing and does another."
"Human beings are inherently contradictory."
…
After lunch, the shrine maiden began to offer sacrifices to the gods. Even though the shrine was such a dilapidated shrine, the gods could still be attached to it. This made Murasaki Yakumo, who had been watching from the side, curious. When the sacrifice was over, she complained
"Speaking of which, who are the gods of Hakurei Shrine?"
"I don't know, maybe there is, maybe there isn't," the witch said.
"As a shrine maiden, you don't even know if there are gods in the shrine. You are really unprofessional." Yakumo Murasaki continued to complain.
The shrine maiden smiled. She was indifferent to Yakumo Murasaki's deliberate provocation. She looked at the falling snowflakes outside and said, "When the snow is over, it's time to build the shrine properly."
"You really put the shrine's affairs first," said Yakumo Murasaki.
"Yes." The miko nodded, "I was an abandoned baby, abandoned at Hakurei Shrine. There was no miko in this shrine at that time, but I survived. I always thought it was the gods who raised me.
At the same time, it also gave me power that others did not have, so when I became sensible, I became the only shrine maiden in this shrine... This shrine gave me a place to live, and now it is time for me to repay."
"...Did you also come up with the name Hakurei?" asked Yakumo Murasaki.
"Yes."
"What about you? I seem to remember that you haven't said your name yet."
"I don't have a name."
"No?" This answer surprised Yakumo Murasaki.
The miko was very calm and said: "Originally, I wanted to give myself a name, but later I found out that everyone was calling me that. It seemed that there was no point in giving me another name... Anyway, for me, the identity of miko is
It's enough."
"Really..." Yakumo Purple responded noncommittally, then looked up at the sky, not knowing what she was thinking.
"You have a lot of free time today. Didn't you come to fight with me?" the witch asked.
"That's what I originally thought, but suddenly I lost interest..." Yakumo Murasaki turned around mid-sentence, "I often come to fight with you and disturb your work as a miko. Don't you feel troubled?"
The miko shook her head and smiled. She also looked at Yakumo Purple, "No, because Purple is my friend. I am very happy to be able to come and accompany me often."
"Uh..." Yakumo Zi was stunned for a moment, friend? She and the miko in front of her just fought a few times and then said a few words. Can this really be considered a friend?
Yakumo Murasaki doubted this, but looking at the gentle smile on the miko's face, she felt that they were really friends.
An inexplicable emotion grew in Yakumo Purple's heart, and she suddenly said, "I have something I want to do. I hope to build a paradise where everyone, whether monsters or humans, weak or strong, can coexist peacefully... Can you
Help me?"
"Yes, I will help you." The witch nodded without hesitation, then stretched out her hand and said with a smile, "Zi, please let me work with you to build a paradise where everyone can live happily."
Yakumo Purple held the miko's hand and smiled, "Well, let's do it together."
"By the way, have you decided on the name of the paradise?"
"Don't think about it, you have no chance to name me anymore."
"Oh, what's that called?"
"Fantasy Township."
"Nice name."
"I think so too."
A monster and a human miko, as the two founders of Gensokyo, decided their future and... the future of Gensokyo in such a joking manner.
ps: This chapter was really hard. It took me six hours to write it. Sure enough, it is really difficult to write a virtuous miko in my style, but... in my mind, the first generation should be like this. (
