Chapter 302: How to maintain the statue of Takenami-jin no Shinto
In the afternoon, after solving the printing issues, Xiao Gong said goodbye and went back to the shop. After all these things that happened in the morning, her mood had improved a lot, at least she was no longer so sad.
Yae Shinko went back to Yae Hall, preparing to revise the drafts that the two travelers had written at noon and put them into printing. As for the reason, it was to use the name of the Palace Master to seek personal power and earn some friendship.
After sending away the cunning fox, the man in black looked at the back of the Thunder General who was sticking to him, revealing a "cruel" look in his eyes.
The yellow-haired girl took in the expressions of her uncle and niece, and was also looking forward to what would happen to the Eightfold Son of God next.
Paimon on the side patted his round belly, feeling very satisfied. While looking at the surrounding scene lazily, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a graceful figure in snow-white clothes passing by in front of him. The figure looked very familiar, and it seemed to be the shogun's general.
"Eh? That looks like Sara. Why is she running so fast?"
"It might be an emergency." Kong's nose twitched slightly, and he thought, "Why don't we go over and take a look? Maybe our special forces will be needed again."
"Cavalry?" Klee asked, "Has Honor Knight brother joined the cavalry like Kaia brother?"
"Ah, no, it's 'weird'... No, it's the 'qi' in strange, not the 'qi' in riding a horse, don't get it wrong, little Keri." Paimon explained.
Klee nodded slightly, as if she understood, probably still thinking about the difference.
Ying smiled playfully and said, "I didn't expect that Paimon could distinguish these words."
"Of course, otherwise how could I be a guide!" Paimon put his hands on his waist, looked proud for a while, and then said: "Let's go, if Sala really has something wrong, we can help!"
"Keli, what do you think?" Mo Ran broke free from his restraints, squatted down and asked.
"Well, that auntie is a good person, and Klee needs to help her. Brother, Brother Albedo, let's go quickly!" Klee thought for a while and made the decision.
Albedo nodded slightly. As long as it was Little Sun's request, he would basically not refuse, of course, the premise was that there was no harm.
……
In Tenryo Bugyo, Kujo Sara looked around and saw that there was no one around. He breathed a sigh of relief and wanted to put the package hidden behind him back to his workstation.
Just as he was about to take action, he heard a young female voice: "Sala, what are you doing?"
"I, I didn't do anything!" Kujo Sara quickly turned around and faced the few people, trying not to show any timidity, and said, "It's you, what's the matter?"
"Just now, I saw you running very fast, so I wanted to ask you if something happened again. Could it be the thing that happened last night?" Paimeng asked curiously.
They also met this shogun last night, and he was investigating a case, but they had no idea about the related events.
When Kujo Sara was reminded of this matter, her admiration for General Raiden and the pride of the Tengu clan were intertwined. Her heart trembled and her fair cheeks turned slightly red.
"I, I just almost was late, so I ran a little fast." Kujo Sara glanced away and made up an excuse.
However, due to the stubbornness of the Tengu clan and because it was the first time in his life that he told a lie, the blush on his face quickly spread, and even his snow-white neck turned red.
Mo Ran knew what was going on without having to guess. Kujo Sara never showed such a shy look except to her general. However, she didn't want to say it out loud, so forget it.
"Ahem." Mo Ran cleared his throat and came to the rescue of the little Tengu girl, "The affairs of the Tenling Fengxing are very busy. Since General Kujo is fine here, we should not disturb him."
Paimon listened to the advice and nodded, saying, "That's right, then, Sha Luo, we're leaving now. See you next time."
Kujo Sara breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he could finally be free, but he was suddenly shocked. Lord Taijo Gosho was here, which meant that the village girl hanging on his arm was Lord Raiden Shogun!
If the general saw her like this, she might be misunderstood as not doing her job properly. But she has never been late before, and she just said it casually. But what if... the general believed it?
Kujo Sara's mind flashed with the image of the General looking at her kneeling down with a look of disgust and a slight frown, telling her that she didn't have to stay as Tenryo Bugyo.
Moreover, the three generals and the Lord Taijo Gosho next to them were also very disappointed in her. Such scenes kept repeating in Kujo Sara's mind, causing her legs to go weak and she was about to fall to the ground.
"Oh no!" Kujo Sara quickly moved sideways to avoid breaking the fragile items in the package, because those were things he had asked someone to buy and he had solved the case with great difficulty. It would be a pity if they were broken like this.
The group of people had just taken a few steps when they heard the sound of a fall. They all turned around and saw the shogunate general with extraordinary martial arts skills falling on the stone road.
Paimon hurried over and shouted, "Sa Luo, how are you?"
The people behind her hurried over. Kong helped her up, and Ying helped her take the thing in her hand. The package, or rather a piece of untied cloth, had spread out, revealing the things inside.
It was a clay doll of the Thunder General that needed both hands to hold up. It was sitting cross-legged with a sword on its legs. After being painted with various dyes, it was indeed lifelike. Kujo Sara looked at the clay doll that he had secretly purchased and did not dare to raise his head for a moment.
"Sa Luo, are you okay? Did you fall anywhere?" Paimon asked worriedly.
Kujo Sara's voice was as soft as a mosquito's buzz: "No, it's okay."
If it were an ordinary day, how could one see this iron-blooded general who proved that "one man is an army of the shogunate" so charming and beautiful like a girl in the boudoir.
"I'm glad you're okay." Paimon examined it for a while before looking away at the clay doll. He said slowly, "The workmanship of this doll is quite good. It's worthy of Sara's vision!"
"Of course, and this is not a doll, it's the statue of Takenami-no-Miyazane." Kujo Sara thought that since he had been discovered, he might as well act normal and show his awe in front of the Shogun.
"This was designed by the most outstanding painter in Yaedo and handcrafted by the most experienced lacquerware master in Inazuma Castle. Otherwise, how could it be possible to restore one thousandth of the majestic statue of the general?"
"If you want to keep it glorious and new for a long time, you need to buy a special shrine and worship it carefully. Make sure to wipe it clean from time to time to prevent it from getting dusty. It would be best to hire a craftsman to come and maintain it..."
As Kujo Sara spoke, she seemed to have entered a state of ecstasy, completely unaware that there was someone behind her, the person she had been thinking about day and night.
Paimon waved her hand gestures and glances for a long time, but they were all ignored by the general. She had no choice but to call out: "Sara, Sara!"
"Hmm? What's wrong? I have summarized five ways to maintain the statue of Takenami-jinn Ogosho, and I haven't even finished the first one." Kujo Sara's eyes never left the Shogun, as if she wanted to imprint her every move into her heart.
Behind her, a voice that sounded very mature but not very smart came: "This little puppet actually has so many details. I haven't heard Shen Zi mention it to me."
"General? How could you..." Kujo Sara turned her head and her heart trembled. It would be okay if there was only one general, but she couldn't handle the two of them.
General Raiden, always dressed in black, waved his hand and shouted, "Mom, Saro bought this doll especially for you. As the Lord of the Imperial Palace, shouldn't you express your gratitude?"
Lei Dianying smiled faintly, pretending to be very serious in front of his men, and said, "I have nothing to do, so I went to the castle tower to take a look. Did you buy this doll?"
"Yes... yes!" The first "yes" of Kujo Sara seemed to be echoed in his throat and no one could hear it at all. The second "yes" was a little better.
"Well, apart from work, you also have a good understanding of the concept of eternity. I hope you can keep up the good work." Lei Dianying closed his eyes and smiled, then reached out and patted her shoulder, which had a huge impact on the general.
"General... My Lord~" Kujo Sara's eyes were a little dazed, and he fell backwards again. He was caught steadily by General Lei Dian and held horizontally in his arms.
"Oh my, the little Tengu who is obsessed with his mother has fainted!" General Lei Dian carried the person in his arms and sent him to the lounge in the Tenryo Bugyo, and Ying followed to send the doll.
Lei Dianying looked at his palm and wondered if it really had such destructive power.
"Hey, there are two sisters who look exactly the same. Is Klee dazzled?" Klee rubbed her big eyes and recovered from the daze of seeing what looked like twin generals.
Albedo was also slightly surprised, but did not show it. What he saw and heard during this trip to Inazuma was much more shocking than what he had seen in Mondstadt before.
Mo Ran patted his sister's head and explained softly, "This is Lei Dianying, the mother of General Lei Dian. According to the order, she is Ke Li's sister, but according to age, you have to call her Sister Ke Li."
"The little sister is so cute. Her name is Klee, right?" Lei Dianying squatted down and held the little sun in his arms. She smelled sweet, even better than dessert.
"Yes, big sister, my name is Keli." Xiao Yangyang roughly understood that the sister in front of him was not the same sister as before, but she had the same relationship with Alice, they just looked very similar.
"Hehe, little Keri looks just like her mother, with the same hair, ears, and eyes..."
The two sisters hit it off right away and started chatting as if they had nothing to say. Mo Ran also squatted beside them, supporting her chin with both hands, listening quietly to what her two sisters said.
It was not until a long time later, when it was time to say goodbye, that General Lei Dian was forced to stay by his kind mother, who said that the child was grown up and should not always disturb his uncle.
"Brother, goodbye." Lei Dianying waved gently. In his other hand was his daughter, whom he had forced to stay. She looked aggrieved and about to cry.
"Okay, everyone has gone far away. It's no use pretending to cry, General."
"Humph, mom doesn't love me anymore. I am the daughter you created bit by bit with your own hands. You are just leaving me here like this. Aren't you afraid that something might happen to me?"
"You don't want to go to the lingering space, do you? Unfortunately, it has been sealed by your uncle, so the general can't enter."
"Tsk, you thought I had no other solution, didn't you?"
"Oh? Tell me?"
"Impossible, how can we call it a solution?"
"Well, okay, if you don't want to talk, then don't talk. Come with me to Kamisato's house. The Kujo family and the Hiiragi family are going to form an alliance, and they are not the only ones who are tired!"
"If I go with him, my identity will be exposed." General Lei Dian looked at Lei Dianying as if he were a fool.
Lei Dianying waved his hand and said, "The visual impairment has not been removed yet. It will be fine. Let's go!"
In today's Inazuma, in addition to the three magistrates, there is also the government of Kaijima, as well as the governments of the demon and ghost tribes, so the marriage can only consolidate the power at most, and will not make them the only one in power, or so powerful that they can cover the sky with one hand.
After all, in addition to the three great magistrates, there are also the family members who are the backbone of Inazuma, as well as the five sword-forging families of Raiden, and many sects that have been passed down. It is not something that can be overturned by a single magistrate.
……
At night, on the coast of the island.
A young man in black, with an elf in red clothes and a red hat sitting on his shoulder, and a young man in white standing next to him, holding a paper in his hand, slowly drawing the night scene illuminated by the lights.
Not long after, a loud bang was heard, and the first firework burst out in the night sky over the sea, followed by more and more, until the entire sky was filled with it, like a hundred flowers blooming, so gorgeous that it was beyond words.
The elf girl looked in that direction, her eyes sparkling, and she smiled in surprise, "Brother, look, there are fireworks over there!"
Mo Ran replied: "Brother is watching, Ke Li."
Albedo said: "I didn't leave my sight."
