My Opinion in Gensokyo

Chapter 10 Deviations from the Plan

() Some bad rumors have been circulating in the Fujiwara Palace since I don't know when.These rumors are not all the same, and some are very different, but the source of these rumors is the same.

That is, there are monsters haunting the palace.

"I saw it when the night was deepest! Really! I was walking around the west garden of the palace with a lantern in the middle of the night. Suddenly, a cry like a wolf and a fox sounded on the roof of the palace, which scared me. At that time, I almost sat on the ground! I looked up tremblingly, and guess what I saw?!"

A court lady was describing the scary scene she saw to other court ladies vividly.

"I saw a big fox standing on the roof! That fox was as big as a dozen people! Its dark green eyes stared at me, and I almost lost my mind! The fox stared at me for a while, then turned and left Now, tell me, isn’t it scary?!”

The maids around heard the words and immediately nodded frequently.

"Brother, let me tell you! That day, man, I was on duty in the Great Pole Hall at night. I was really sleepy, so I dozed off against the doorpost. Suddenly, a gust of cold wind blew, and I woke up instantly. Nope. I didn’t know that as soon as I opened my eyes, I was so scared that I almost peed my pants!”

A soldier was spitting and telling other soldiers about his experience.

"It's such a big black cat! It's the size of a horse, and it's standing less than ten steps away from me. Its eyes are still blood red! It was staring at me, and I was trembling with fright. Kneeling on the ground, the demon cat seemed not interested in me, stared at me for a while, then turned around and jumped onto the roof of the Great Pole Hall, and disappeared."

The soldiers around him suddenly gasped.

"You don't know, our third brother guarded Dongyuan all night. The moon last night was weird, as if there was hair growing around it! It made people feel scared, and the three of us hurriedly quickened our pace, probably because He was so nervous, he said he would go to the corner to relieve himself."

In another, three soldiers are surrounded by a group of soldiers, and the soldier in the story points to the soldier next to him.

"He went to the corner to relieve himself, and he (the third pawn) and I waited for him with a lantern. Suddenly, we both heard him yell, thinking that he saw the thief, and we both drew out our knives in a hurry. I rushed over. It turned out that he didn’t even pull up his pants, so he ran this way in fear. After we saw something behind him, our calves were soft, and we couldn’t see what it was in the dark, but it The eyes were as big as copper bells, and they glowed red. The two of us also yelled and ran away. I don’t know why it didn’t come after us.”

Similar rumors quickly spread among the palace people and soldiers. In just one night last night, a large number of palace people and soldiers saw ghost shadows and heard strange voices in addition to terrifying monsters. Everyone in the palace was panicked and terrified.

The old empress pressed her temples, her face a little embarrassed.

Not only because of his grandson, but also because of his heir who saw Yaoyi yesterday and was scared and worried.

There is another more important reason, the current 11th District has fully accepted the cultural system of the Central Plains, and some political ideas are also very popular in the 11th District, for example.

When the country will perish, there will be evil spirits!

If you are not upright, there will be monsters and evildoers that will bring disaster to the country!

The empress's position is not very stable, and what she is most worried about now is that if someone uses this as an excuse to say that she has offended the heavens and asks her to abdicate, what should she do.

I just punished that demon girl yesterday, and this happened today, hmph.

The old empress thought angrily.

Suddenly, the old empress seemed to have thought of something, and her serious face became a little gloomy.

If it really doesn't work...

Beiyuan of the Imperial Palace. The palace where love lives

Early in the morning, Ai opened her eyes in a daze. She just wanted to reach out and rub her eyes, but she struggled for a while before remembering that she was still tied up.

Ai couldn't help but feel a little strange. Recently, Shangyang came to her every day in the middle of the night to sleep with her. Why didn't he come yesterday?

And didn't he always come to see me every morning and bring me those delicious delicacies?Could it be that he was looking at me as a joke, deliberately not letting go, and wanted me to beg him to feed me?

Combined with Shang Yang's bad taste, Ai thought with a little shame and anger.

If that's the case, I won't beg him to die!See if he can bear to let me starve? !

The time of being tied up was a bit long, and Ai was a little bit angry at Shang Yang's behavior of not coming to rescue her.

Love suffered enough yesterday, because she was tied up at noon, she lay down and took a nap in the afternoon, and woke up to find that it was still very early in the evening.Ai had no choice but to use her head to push the pillow aside first, and then opened "Journey to the West" with her small mouth... 2

I, the author, don't even want to describe that tragic appearance...

Just like this, Ai struggled to close the book when she saw the evening when the sun was dim while reading the book.Glancing at the food box on the table that was larger than usual, Ai felt that she was not very hungry, and it was troublesome to eat while being tied up like this, so she simply shrank back into the quilt, closed her eyes, and lay on the pillow I slept until early this morning in the fresh medicine scent in my body.

Just like yesterday, Ai used her bound elbows as a fulcrum to support her body, and her long black hair hung down like a waterfall as Ai sat up.

After being tied up for a day and a night, Ai felt a little numbness in her limbs and waist, but it didn't affect her activities.

Although I just saw that the food box has not been touched, it means that Shangyang really didn't come, and it wasn't because Shangyang saw her joke that he didn't untie it for her, but Ai still felt a little dissatisfied.

You usually say it so nicely, what will definitely protect me, now that I'm tied up, they won't come to rescue me, hum.

But this also shows that Ai is actually a little worried. Although she feels that Shangyang, who is a monster, cannot have any troubles in this human city, Ai still misses him a little.

Ah, by the way, this food box was put here before I was tied back, which means that Shangyang came to my room once when I went to the Daji Hall, um, let’s see if he left me a letter.

Thinking of this, Ai twisted her body hard, arched (allow me to use this word) to the side of the pillow, lowered her head, bit a corner of the pillow, raised her head, and turned the pillow over.I let a letter-putting pocket in the bottom turn up.

Immediately afterwards, Ai moved her chin closer to the pocket and pressed on it.

No.

No envelope feeling.

Ai couldn't help being a little disappointed, and she abandoned her dissatisfaction, and became a little worried instead. If Shangyang was going to be away for a day or two, he would always leave a letter for her.

Although a little worried, Ai still tried to convince herself with the reason that "Maybe Shangyang is in a hurry and has no time to write to me".

Believe in your husband.

This is the way of being a wife that love has learned in the past two days.

Thinking of this, Ai felt that she should not think too much first, and it was useless to think so much now that she was tied here, instead she should take care of herself first.

Thinking of this, love also felt a little hungry.So, Ai began to move her body first, approaching the bed, put down her legs, and slowly put on the cotton slippers.

And then, Ai looked at the table not far away, and felt a little troubled.

If your legs and ankles are tied, there is a way to jump over if you want to go there.

Then...jump over?

Ai thought with some distress, and in the end, she still made up her mind.

jump over!

Standing up, looking at the table not far away, love gritted his teeth.

Three, two, one!

The first jump was successful~!

it is good!

Love cheers yourself up in your heart.Now Ai must be extremely careful, if she loses her footing and falls to the ground, not only will it hurt, but she will also be unable to stand up.In that case, Ai can only roll back to the bed and lean against the bed to let herself sit back on the bed, then stand up and dance again. 3

And if you roll on the ground or something, you will be laughed to death by Shang Yang!

A 14-year-old girl is burning with fighting spirit.

Of course, when it comes to writing this, the author can't bear to toss about Ai Jiang anymore.

Ai jumped to the side of the table smoothly, turned her back, and grabbed the handle of the food box with one hand tied behind her back.With the food box, he jumped back onto the bed smoothly.

It's really hard for you, Ai-chan. (wiping tears

Kicking off the cotton slippers, Ai first lay on the bed gasping for breath, almost exhausted.

After resting for a while, Ai straightened up, bit the lid of the food box (similar to the one on the top of the pot lid) with her teeth, opened the food box, and a gust of hot air rushed towards her face. 4

While seeing the food, Ai became a little more at ease.

This time the food boxes are layered and stuffed full, enough to eat for three or four days, which shows that Shang Yang did not leave suddenly, although I don’t know why he didn’t leave a letter.

But even though she felt relieved, looking at the dishes and rice, and thinking about her hands tied behind her back, Ai took a deep breath, lowered her head, and "gnawed" on the rice.

When Shang Yang comes to untie the rope for me, I must first bite him hard!

This is the only thought that Ai, who is usually kind and considerate, "gnaws" on the meal.

Fujiwara Kyo. Shang's Restaurant

Shang Yang, who didn't know that Ai was working hard to "eat rice", had breakfast on the third floor with peace of mind.The plan to stimulate the maids and soldiers in the palace with evil energy was very successful, they all had hallucinations, and now people in the palace have become panicked.And in order not to make love suffer, Shang Yang deliberately chose to carry out plan 5 away from the palace where Ai lived.

"And the one I frightened with my demonic aura at the end seemed to be a prince, Lord God Sang."

Shang Yang chatted with Ms. Lord God while he was eating.

[Well, this time the old emperor is expected to react more strongly than we expected. ]

For the old emperor, Miss Lord God has always been honest.

"Then to stimulate some people tonight, just check the time and place when most of the palace soldiers were stimulated by the evil spirit and hallucinated, the empress and the ministers will see that I deliberately left the same route for two days, for some reason This is a political factor. On the third day, they will ambush me at multiple points. At that time, they only need to do a scene to end the game. And I only scare people but not hurt people or kill people, so that the empress and ministers have the confidence to encircle me. .”

[...Then Shang Yang, are you going to kill someone? ]

Miss Lord God was silent for a while, then asked suddenly.

"...Well, don't worry, I'm not a middle school student. I think blood on my hands won't wash off."

Shang Yang narrowed his eyes and turned to look at the blue sky.

"The human soul is no nobler than the souls of animals and plants."6

"But even if I am a monster now, I can't forget my experience as a human. There is nothing to deny. At the same time, this life as a human has left me with such power."

As he said that, Shang Yang's eyes turned into a rare indifference.

"I will not kill indiscriminately."

……

[Well, it's good that you think so. ]

After a while, Miss Lord God's rare gentle voice came into Shang Yang's ears.

[At the very least, if you think this way, you will be a monster instead of going on the road of killing for the sake of killing. ]

"...By the way, Lord God Sang, how long will it take me to go around the death realm? And is there a toll booth inside? If the money is not enough, it will be a real miracle."

After a moment of seriousness, Shang Yang began to tilt the building habitually again.

[...The realm of death is not Santuchuan...]

Unable to suppress her anger, Miss Lord God gritted her teeth.

Alright, speaking of which, Shang Yang's story is over, let's turn the time back to the time when Shang Yang left Ai Jiang's room with a letter.

Of course, this is God's perspective, only me and readers know it.

After Shang Yang left, Ai Jiang's room was empty, and it was at this time.

The "world correction power" follows the trajectory of "fate" and emerges from the surface of Ai-chan's room. Of course, because the "world correction power" is invisible and formless, it cannot be observed from a physical perspective.

But in order to let everyone know what happened, we can reproduce it like this.

The "world correction power" wrapped Shangyang's letter to Ai-chan, and the envelope quickly became transparent, and finally disappeared without a trace.

At the same time, Ai Jiang pressed the back of the last page of "Journey to the West" under the pillow, and a blank sheet of paper suddenly appeared.

It looked like a blank guard page from the book itself.

In this way, the only physical variation caused by the "world correction power" appeared.

The wheel of "fate" has begun to roll.

ps: 1 Commonly known as "moon hair", it is said that this kind of night is prone to accidents, I have seen it a few times, the moon makes people feel hairy.

2 Well, this action is very tiring, I tried it before.

3 This action has also been tested by someone.

4 This food box is specially modified by Shangyang, which has the functions of preventing food from breaking and keeping warm.

5 Undoubtedly, this is one of the reasons why Shang Yang did not find the situation of love

6 From this sentence, it can be seen that in Shang Yang’s personality cognition, he is closer to the idea of ​​“all things are equal” than everyone is equal. Buddhism vigorously promotes this spirit, but we can reverse it from rationality. Thinking at the same level, killing a person is equivalent to trampling a grass to death in a sense.
