Lu Tan always felt that she seemed to be particularly interested in him.
If it is really the spirit body of Shen Ying, is it because of its rejection of outsiders?
Lu Tiao looked at the mask again, and there seemed to be more scars on it.
"This mask allows me to disguise myself when facing the bandaged man, and I can also use the characteristics of the bandaged man to sneak into some places at certain times."
Lu Tan thought.
The [Alienation] level of this mask seems to mean that the person wearing the mask will become a bandaged person.
The side effects, obviously, are that you will hear all kinds of nonsense from the filth and the bandaged people, and if you are unlucky, it may explode on the spot.
But Lu Tiao doesn’t think the problem is that big.
If he wears it again now, it might not explode.
"nice one."
Putting the mask away, Lu Tiao walked around the yard again, but found no trace of the woman.
"Is it because I buried something next to her yesterday, so she came here to retaliate? She's too petty. This is your witch after all."
Lu Tan felt that this guy was really a coward.
He picked up the note Amber left for him.
There are words like "I have the imperial examination in the afternoon, I hope you can come and have a look" written on it in neat characters.
Lu Jian has been popularized before. The palace examination has a very high status among the tests of shrine maidens. If she almost gets the first place in the palace examination, it means that she can definitely become the officiating shrine maiden.
Therefore, Kohaku hopes that Lu Kan can see her surpass everyone and become a well-deserved officiating witch.
After packing up his things, Lu Tian went around to the little girl, but saw no sign of her. When he arrived at the shrine where the palace examination was held, he discovered that many witches had gathered here to watch the competition.
The competition hasn't started yet, but the venue has already let Lu Jian know about the project.
Archery.
This is an archery dojo.
Thinking of Amber's archery skills, Lu Tan felt there was nothing wrong with it.
However, he also thought about why the selection of the officiating witch requires a test of archery skills?
Shouldn't the control of pure fire be a spell or a word spirit? It feels like there's something wrong with selecting an officiating shrine maiden for an event that ordinary people can perform after practicing it.
"Kyudo is an offering to the sacred Sakura. The original Lord Kamiko used bows and arrows to exorcise demons. Therefore, archery is the behavior of the regional sacred Sakura."
At some point, the cold miko lady appeared next to Lu Tian. She seemed to see Lu Tian's doubts and explained.
"At the same time, archery in this situation can better reveal the realm of practice. If you can't get rid of foreign objects, you can't see the world. As a son of God, the most important thing is vision. Being able to see filth is the most important thing.
One ring.”
"I see, it's all about training your perception ability, right? I see that every time the Shenzi Pavilion shoots arrows, they are very fast. It seems that the priestess has foreseen the appearance of the filth in advance, so she can prepare in time."
Lu Tan was thoughtful and thought of something.
"Speaking of which, won't Lord Shenzi come to witness her successor?"
Lu Tan looked around, but didn't find anyone who looked like the officiating witch.
"Lord Shenzi will not appear here, there are more important things that need her."
The miko lady said in a cold tone.
"Oh, then there shouldn't be any imperial decree."
Lu Tiao thought it was pretty good.
He saw amidst the noise, a witch came to the shooting position. She was holding a long bow and arrows, with a serious look on her face, looking at the target in front of her.
In this environment, it is obvious that she seems to be slightly affected and her standing is a little shaken.
Maybe the oppressive power of amber is also part of it.
It's like when you're playing a game and you've just stepped out of the straw sandals and found that you're facing a big brother in a six-god suit. It's probably the last thing you can do if you can just pray that you won't be killed solo by jumping over the tower.
The witch prepared for a moment, calmed down, and started shooting arrows.
Thumb——
The first arrow hit the bullseye.
Even though she showed nervousness, the miko performed really well when her direct shot was sure to hit.
"This is the basic skill among the basic skills, and the next step is the real test."
The miko lady next to Lu Tiao explained.
He saw that the witch shot another arrow.
This arrow hit the bullseye again, right next to the previous one, and already occupied the entire bullseye position.
In this way, the third arrow will definitely not be able to hit the bullseye.
Thumb——
Sure enough, the third arrow missed the target because of the slight deviation from the previous two arrows.
The next seven arrows are lackluster.
Lu Jian saw that after the last arrow was shot, the miko felt a moment of disappointment, but more importantly, she felt relieved, as if a mission had finally come to an end.
The performance of the next few mikos was similar. Even the one with the Sanada family crest only hit seven arrows.
At this time, the whole place suddenly became quiet.
Lu Tan saw Amber appear.
Compared to other miko, she is a bit more petite, which makes the bow in her hand look a bit bigger.
She held the arrow, and her nervousness could be seen. She took two deep breaths, and Amber's eyes swept over the surrounding witches.
She saw Lu Jian.
They only looked at each other for a moment, but Lu Tan did see light in her eyes.
Amber seemed determined.
I got here by giving up the freedom I might have in life. If I lose here, it will be completely meaningless.
With this thought in her mind, she drew the bowstring.
Closing her eyes, all the noise around her left her.
Silence fell.
At this time, Amber saw a light spot emerging in front of him.
Along with this light spot, she could feel the existence of her body, just like a sketch with only white lines in a pure black picture, everything was decomposed into the most basic elements.
"It turns out this is seeing the world."
Amber could see the lights of thousands of houses outside the dojo, and could see the black mold on the vast ocean.
She felt that her heart was clear and integrated with the sky, earth and ocean.
In such a natural state, the arrow leaves the string.
Thumb——
The arrow landed firmly on the bull's-eye without any suspense.
Immediately afterwards, the second arrow followed.
However, the second arrow directly split the first arrow into four, penetrated the entire arrow from the tail, and was firmly nailed to the bullseye.
The third arrow, the fourth arrow, ten arrows in a row, each arrow landed at the position of the previous arrow, firmly, without any room for argument.
All the shrine maidens present fell silent as Kohaku's arrows were fired, holding their breath and concentrating until the last arrow. After hesitating for tens of seconds, they burst into applause and exclamations.
Lu Jian also applauded. He saw Amber, who was surrounded by a group of miko, looking towards him. She smiled, and in the background were cherry blossoms falling at a speed of five centimeters per second.
She would become the Son of God and protect the world. It was only at this moment that Lu Jian felt this clearly.
