Chapter 152
Author: Captain of the Youth First Crazy Squad
Kasuga Mountain, the sacred mountain of Kasuga Taisha Shrine, has been banned from logging for thousands of years, and the interior is a bit like a virgin forest.
And because Kasuga Taisha shrine regards deer as the messenger of the gods, deer are also everywhere here, and even Nara is famous for deer.
When he arrived for the first time, he was surprised by the situation inside. Flocks of deer took shelter in it, and at the same time, there were a large number of people who cultivated wasteland and planted crops in the sacred mountain forest covered by the enchantment.
But it all seems to be due to Yuuna...
Therefore, when Yuna was taken away and the stardust had not yet appeared, the guardian was lost, and the order here immediately showed signs of collapse.
When they were put back on, a group of people were still arguing with each other on the edge of the cultivated potato field in the forest, looking like they were about to fight.
Weak people such as children can only watch from the side and dare not intervene at all. It seems that they have been reprimanded before they dare not speak again.
What the adults were arguing about was the distribution of food and whether Yuna would come back, but everyone was very excited, and without exception, they were all affected by anxiety and fear.
"—Everyone, don't be arguing! The children are all scared, aren't they!" Seeing the dispute, Yuna hurriedly rushed out.
"Ah...Yuna!"
"The hero is back!"
"I said it! Yuna is a hero! How could he leave us!"
"Say, it's also..."
.......
All disputes were immediately subsided when Takashima Yuna returned.
Everyone was either ashamed or happy, but without exception, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
As the culprit who caused the problem, Luo Mo was not ashamed at all, facing the anger of the crowd calmly, and followed Youna into the crowd.
"It's all this guy..."
"This bastard wants to take Yuna away..."
"Also knocked out Yuna!"
......
Contrary to Yuna's warm welcome, Luo Mo, who was also talked about, was completely hostile and angry.
But....he seemed to enjoy it, and couldn't help but smile and nod:
"It's really good, it really is the right choice to follow."
"Mr. Mo?" Yuna, who wanted to speak for him, was stunned for a moment when he heard his own words, and then immediately thought of something, she couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief and smiled brightly: "You are so gentle. "
"Huh, what?"
"Everyone is angry and didn't give you a good face, but you are not angry at all, and you are happy that everyone is there to restore order, so... Mr. Mo is really gentle!"
"...Yes!" Luo Mo was stunned for a moment, and then he understood that she seemed to have misunderstood something, but she had no plans to explain, and said earnestly: "Actually, I am also for all Hello, I didn't expect you to understand me."
"Well, I know! You're also doing it for everyone's sake. You knew it from the beginning."
Yuna, who never doubts anything or speculates maliciously on others, smiled and nodded vigorously.
...And even if he was suspicious of people, Yuna would never have imagined that Luo Mo would be happy now because he was excited by being surrounded by malice after a long absence.
To be honest, he hadn't felt malicious for a long time, and he was not used to it, and even felt that something was missing in his life.
.................
Although Takashima Yuna hopes that everyone is equal, since she is the most important existence in the entire Kamiyama and the basis for everyone's survival, she naturally gets the highest treatment here.
As soon as I came back, I was consulted by the doctor first, and then someone sent nutritional supplements.
For Luo Mo, the "villain" who tried to take away hope and didn't intend to pay attention to them, they were helpless. Even if they hated him as a cruel guy, they still needed him to send precious rations obediently.
"Oops~ It's funny to see that I'm upset and can't beat me. It's funny that I have to be obedient, and I'm still eating angels at the shrine. It's really refreshing~~"
With a hearty smile on his face, Luo Mo walked out of the main hall of the shrine, biting the leg of the deer, and glanced at the people around who were happy and wanted to sing.
However, the others around him could only forcefully smile and nod in the face of him and... quickly moved away from him.
He was in a good mood, but the sky was still gloomy, and it even started to rain gradually at night, and the rain was getting heavier and heavier.
"In such a great situation, it still rains my favorite. God loves me too much here, right?"
The rain poured down without any money, and people hid in the building of the shrine. Instead, he looked down on the second floor of the main hall of the shrine, admiring the shattered city in the distance and the solemn shrine below.
The contrast brought by the combination of the two, coupled with the wonderful charm formed by the cold evening wind, really made him a little bit addicted.
While he was admiring the unique style of this world, which was almost one step away from the complete doomsday, the sliding door behind him was slowly opened.
No longer relying on the power of the divine tree, the girl with the same appearance and only shoulder-length hair stuck her head out and looked at him curiously:
"Does Mr. Mo also like shrines?"
"it's OK."
"Come again~ Don't hate it, why do you keep standing here in a daze?"
"What do you mean, do you like shrines very much?"
"Yeah! I used to play in the forest when I was young, and I often went to the shrine near my house to help, or play in the shrine. For example, the Kasuga Taisha Shrine is quite big! It's not suitable for playing hide-and-seek?" Yuna said with a smile, her face The haze of talking to him in an abandoned building is completely absent.
This made Luo Mo a little surprised: "You are quite powerful. Why are you still so calm? After a while, you will definitely face a hard fight, right?"
"Of course I'm afraid, and I'm very afraid? Didn't you say it during the day? Mr. Mo is really forgetful." The smile on the girl's face gradually disappeared, and a bitter expression emerged, and she clenched her unconsciously trembling fingertips.
"It's too late to regret it now."
"...Although I'm afraid, I don't want everyone to be different, and now I'm not alone...Even if you don't know how to fight, but with you, I know that I'm not alone. struggling."
Not to be polite, Yuuna thanked him from the bottom of her heart for coming back with her.
Even if Luo Mo declared in advance that she would not join the battle, Yuna felt that there was no problem at all. After all, she never thought of forcing her ideas on anyone, and what she really needed was not only the assistance of combat power... . is a spiritual support.
The fear of being alone has surrounded her for the past six months. Although there are always people around her, no one can understand her.
To be precise, she can't tell anyone about her weakness, she must be smiling and confident all the time, so that others will not panic.
Although some people could not believe a child like her at first, but now she is the backbone of everyone, so she has to hide everything.
Every time I get hurt, I almost cry in pain, but I can only endure it desperately, for fear that I will affect others.
"You are such a strange child.... I said clearly that I would not join the battle."
"People often say that, hehe~" Yuna twisted her body shyly.
Looking at Younai like this, Luo Mo unconsciously thought of it... Sakura Manji.
Both are people with special destiny, and they are both considered to be very gentle people, but compared with the so-called gentleness of Sakura Manji and Takashima Yuna, he thinks that Yuuna may be the real gentleness, right?
Both care about other people's thoughts, but one cares about other people's thoughts, and its root is just introversion, while the other really cares about other people's mood.
And Luo Mo looked at the girl in front of him, he really felt some sympathy, and after thinking about it, he reached out and stroked her a little messy short hair:
"If it's me, it doesn't matter if you don't pretend... You must have had a tough time in the past six months, right?"
"Hmm..." Yuna lowered her head meekly and nodded lightly.
"Whoever died in the attack, you must be blamed."
"Um....."
"Does your body still hurt?"
"pain."
"Want to cry?"
"...Want to cry."
"Then cry, for the time being, the shoulders will be lent to you, and everyone else hates me, so they all stay away from here, and now it's raining so much, it's definitely not going to be seen."
"....thanks."
I felt the warmth from my palm, and once again after half a year, I gained a sense of security to rely on.
Even though it was only the first meeting with the other party, the girl couldn't control the emotions she had accumulated over the past six months, and unconsciously hugged him and buried her face in his chest.
.... Listening to the girl in her arms still worrying about other people's repression and sobbing, Luo Mo was not incomprehensible, so she didn't say anything, just silently stroked her short hair and patted her back, looking gloomy Skyrim thought.
Is the mission given by the divine tree a little too heavy for the young girls.
.................
.................
He stayed in Kasuga Taisha for nine days in a blink of an eye, during which he also contacted Qianjing, and Qianjing was a little dissatisfied with him outside, but he had no choice but to tell him to be careful outside.
His departure caused the defense of Shikoku to be temporarily carried out by the other three heroes.
However, Shikoku was not attacked during the period, but Kasuga Taisha was attacked once. Obviously, even Stardust understands that persimmons need to be picked up softly. Compared with Shikoku, which has a strong barrier, other areas are more favored by them.
Since all aspects of physical abilities have been strengthened during hero transformation, Yuna transformed into as many heroes as possible, relying on a certain degree of enhanced resilience, and basically recovered seven or eight in this time.
And so, the expedition began.
"Everyone! You can only bring some food that you can eat directly when you go out! Don't bring anything else! We try to pack as lightly as possible!"
Once again, using the power of the hero, Yuuna, who turned herself into a long-haired, single-tailed ponytail, was in the center of the shrine, and warned the people around with big bags and small bags.
And the people hiding here don't need her to say, and basically no one brings much stuff... After all, no one will joke with their own lives.
After confirming that everyone didn't bring anything extra, she raised her hand and said with a smile on her face:
"Okay!—Let's go!"
"Finally get out of here!"
"Oh!!"
"Keep your voice down, what if you welcome those monsters?"
Some people in the crowd were excited, and some rationally told them not to shout loudly.
Yuuna, who was walking in the front, just smiled at them and said without looking back:
"Thank you, Mr. Mo."
"what?"
"The last stardust thing."
"Ah~ it's just a dozen star dust, something casual."
"Even so, you have to thank him properly, Mr. Mo is really gentle~" While joking, Yuna poked him with her elbow: "It's just a little too modest, is this a sign of shyness?"
"I didn't expect that the social fear I had hidden for so many years was discovered by you."
"Wow? Really?!"
"Cough, let's put this topic aside for now, let's go quickly." Luo Mo, who didn't expect her to believe it, coughed dryly and changed the subject: "No, I have to bring a deer back."
"Do you want to keep it?"
"No, I just found that the venison was unexpectedly delicious, so I brought it back to Qianjing to have a taste."
"Huh? Do you want to eat it? Obviously so cute?"
"Aren't you eating too?"
"That's... the old deer, and it's still brought back from here? Or forget it?"
"Hmm~ Okay."
Troubled again and again, he could only reluctantly look at the past six months, many compatriots have been killed and no longer relatives, and even subconsciously stayed away from their deer, regretfully gave up the plan to bring special products to Qianjing.
There is no way, unless it is knocked out, it is really not easy to take a deer that doesn't listen to people.
Following Yuuna with a feeling of loss, they walked out of the shrine and the long walk, and they came to the outside of the barrier in a short while.
Everyone was subconsciously tense when they crossed the barrier.
Originally, they were more or less talking and laughing about something, but as soon as they left the safe area, they became collectively silent.
Since only half a year has passed, the ground of the city has not changed much, just lack of maintenance more or less some cracks, and some weeds emerge from the cracks in the ground, but everyone is walking and it is not in the way .
It's just that when they arrived in the downtown area, looking at the car wreckage and bones everywhere, people's already dignified faces gradually turned pale.
But fortunately, they have been attacked many times in the past six months, so that they have seen the deceased, their psychological quality has been improved to some extent, and no one screamed.
The only problem is that the road conditions have deteriorated, and the road has been shattered by star dust, or blocked by collapsed buildings, or there are countless gnawed and squashed car wrecks left on the road, which seriously affects the efficiency of traffic
