"You don't know what I've been through." Zaoyou recalled the training during this period, her expression turned lifeless, "The terrain of Yingxiang Mountain is complicated. When I use Wuhu Style: Wind Hidden Rapids, I always bump into things all over my head. Aunt Kitsaigong even thought I wasn't running fast enough, so she used magic to bless the carriage to hit me."
After she said this, Fang Yun could already imagine the scene of Hu Zhaigong driving a carriage to chase Zaoyou in his mind.
Well, no wonder Zaoyou’s physical skills improved so quickly.
"Fortunately, she thought you were not running fast enough, so she didn't stop you from running and even tried to crash into the carriage." Fang Yun complained.
Zaoyou's butt trembled when she heard this: "Don't tell Aunt Kitsaigong, I doubt she can really do it... Wait, who invented this wicked training method? They are trying to train aliens!"
The training during this period has become a nightmare for her.
"Don't worry, Hu Zhaigong won't do this to you. She knows what she's doing." Fang Yun comforted, "If she really dares to do this, just come to me. I will severely punish her."
My whip is not bad at all!
According to the process of Naruto subduing the Nine-Tails, Fang Yun has already used the Rasengan at her and absorbed her chakra. If he goes one step further, he will truly activate the Nine-Tails connection mode.
With Fang Yun's promise, Zaoyou's tense body gradually relaxed. She still trusted Fang Yun very much.
To put it another way, Fang Yun is now the Emperor Mingshen and the boss of Hu Zhaigong. How could a female secretary like Hu Zhaigong contradict her boss?
"When you whip Aunt Hu Zhaigong, remember to bring me with you! I'll be there to cheer you on." Zao You raised her little fist. After Fang Yun said that, she wanted to pick up Fang Yun's whip and whip Hu Zhaigong.
The fox she was going to whip made the fox cry!
Fang Yun was stunned. Do you know what whip I'm talking about?
"By the way, how come you've grown taller?" He remembered that Shen Zi had specifically checked with Zao You and found that she had stopped growing.
Zaoyou explained: "This is all thanks to Master Wubai Zang. Auntie Kitsai Gong asked me to become his disciple, and I learned from Master Wubai Zang how to use the immortal power."
"Immortal power?" Fang Yun touched his chin. He was not surprised that Fox Palace unsealed the Five Hundred Treasures, but the immortal power... no, judging from the performance of the immortals and monsters in the plot, the monster power and the immortal power should be similar. Yae Shinto and Fox Palace can be called fox demons or fox immortals.
Zaoyou continued, "My practice of the raccoon cat style of immortal arts seems to be particularly suitable. I can accumulate immortal power through meditation and enhance myself comprehensively. Even my elemental combat skills will undergo qualitative changes. If there is a raccoon cat by my side to assist me, I can enter the state faster."
I'm testing, Sage Mode, right?
But he also understood the reason why Zaoyou grew taller. She improved her life level by practicing immortal arts, which gave her the opportunity for secondary development.
"Although the speed of practicing immortal arts is very slow, I will be satisfied if I can grow taller." Zaoyou was full of emotion.
She once read the novel written by Fang Yun, and at that time she particularly resonated with Frieza...If there really is a dragon that can make wishes, even if it only makes one 5cm taller, that would be great.
In addition, she practiced magic to help Fang Yun.
She didn't know what level Fang Yun's combat power had reached, but if she was an ordinary holder of the Eye of God, she would only be further and further away from Fang Yun and would only become a burden to him.
Although she would definitely not be able to catch up with Fang Yun even if she practiced immortal arts, it would still be of some use... Both Kitsuneyasu and Gobazo said that she could practice the perfect Tanuki-ryu immortal mode.
I have shed my raccoon skin and transformed into a raccoon dog!
And if she could grow taller, she could...
Fang Yun could feel the tenderness in her eyes, he shook his head and smiled gently.
Afterwards, Zaoyou felt a warm current flowing from Fang Yun into her body, and finally flowing to her limbs and bones.
The tiredness she had felt during the previous mission was instantly swept away. She couldn't help but squint her eyes comfortably, and even curled up her toes.
"what is this?"
"You'll know next time you practice fairy arts. This will help you grow taller faster."
Zaoyou blinked in confusion. She felt that there was indeed a special power lurking in her body, full of vitality, making her feel that even if she was injured, she could heal quickly.
This is the grass elemental power that Fang Yun injected into her, which can greatly enhance Zaoyou's practice of immortal arts. It can be said that "Fang Yun cells" are used to help her forge an "immortal body".
Of course, Zaoyou, Ying and Hu Zhaigong have different physiques and can withstand very little divine power, so Fang Yun’s portrait will not appear on their chests, and no grass element patterns will be produced.
and--
Who can do such a thing as equipping Zaoyou with grass element patterns?
He shook his head slightly, took Zaoyou out of the room and came to the courtyard of the inner house.
In fact, the two of them could chat in the room, but he had been away from Narukami Taisha for a long time, and saw that Zaoyu had changed a lot. He couldn't help but miss his life in Narukami Taisha, and wanted to walk around here. It was a rare time for him to have some free time now.
Fang Yun missed the good memories of playing with cats and raccoon dogs at the Naruto-jin Shrine. Sometimes he wondered how high an official position could be.
If it weren't for General Yinghe's order, he might still be guarding the gate of Naruto-taisha Shrine.
Of course, there is nothing wrong with guarding the gate, but Emperor Mingshen will give him a wider world.
Zaoyou also liked the childhood sweetheart atmosphere she and Fang Yun had when they were at Naruto-Oh! Taisha Shrine, so she left with him.
Humph, did Qiliangliang do that?
The area of Narukami Taisha is much larger than in the game, but it is built on the top of Yingxiang Mountain after all. Due to the terrain, the buildings are still relatively close to each other. The two met the shrine maiden who was off today in the corridor not long after they walked.
"It's His Highness Fang Yun! And Zaoyou..." Daocheng Yingmei was suddenly stunned, her eyes wide open as she stared at Zaoyou who was riding on Fang Yun's neck, and she forced herself to hold back her smile.
Most of the shrine maidens stationed at the Naruto-taisha Shrine are members of the final series, and have been taught by Yae Miko. In fact, they are very familiar with Fang Yun and Zaoyou. Some of the older ones can be said to have watched Fang Yun and the others grow up, while the younger ones were their childhood playmates.
Therefore, a long time ago, the priestesses often discussed Fang Yun's future marriage, and it was even heard by the Eightfold God Son.
It’s just that when everyone first started discussing, they would still include Zaoyou, but now, everyone has quietly put it in the warehouse and only discusses “cats, fish, turtles, and dogs”.
As for the ranking between Lord Palace Chief and His Royal Highness the Grand Palace... don't say anything that is not conducive to unity!
But the withdrawal of Zaoyou is certain.
There was nothing that could be done about it. The pomelo had stopped growing a few years ago, and Fang Yun had reached the age where she needed to grow taller. Now that Fang Yun let her sit on his neck, it was hard to tell that they were childhood sweethearts.
"Ah... don't... hold back your laughter!" When Zaoyou saw Daocheng Yingmei's expression, she puffed up her face in anger and could hardly speak clearly.
Only then did she realize that she was still sitting on Fang Yun's neck.
Really, Fang Yun didn’t even bother to remind her!
Fang Yun chuckled and put her down.
He didn't mean it. In the past, when there was not much difference in height between them, he could still hold Zaoyou's little hand. Now, if they wanted to travel together, it seemed that this was the only way.
Zaoyou felt that she was looked down upon by Daocheng Yingmei, so she pouted and turned her head away.
"Hehe, is Xiaohan angry?" Daocheng Yingmei touched her head with a smile.
Zaoyou quickly broke free and glared at her angrily: "It's Zaoyou, not Hanchu! Besides... you won't grow taller if you touch your head!"
Damn it, she clearly turned off her expressions, so how could someone still touch her head?
And Daocheng Yingmei touches my head so quickly, it’s like she has a clicker on!
"Who said that? Xiao Zaoyou, aren't you taller now?" Daocheng Yingmei still had a smile on her face. "But why did you come back so early? I remember Shikano Nana also went on a mission with you, why didn't I see her?"
"Uh...haha, maybe it's because I run faster." Zaoyou suddenly scratched his head, then looked around.
Seeing her guilty look, Fang Yun and Daocheng Yingmei guessed that Zaoyou probably wanted to take a nap again.
"Don't look at me like that. I came back after completing the mission. I just came back early to sleep!" Zaoyou argued.
Daocheng Ying gave her a glaring look: "When did you say that? But you overslept and we had to look for you everywhere."
But she didn't make things difficult for Zaoyou. She pinched her smooth little face with some baby fat and prepared to leave.
"Okay, I won't disturb you and His Highness Fang Yun anymore." Daocheng Yingmei said with a smile. The joking tone made Zaoyou feel a little embarrassed.
Fang Yun shook his head. The shrine maidens of Naruto-Oh! Taisha Shrine were more or less influenced by Yae Kamikochi. They used to tease him often. Now with the addition of Kitsunayaguni, the shrine maidens of Inazuma were probably even more despicable.
In Inazuma, shrine maidens are actually a family inheritance... Shinobu Kuki was born into a shrine maiden family and once stayed in Narukami Taisha for a period of time, but she later chose to leave.
If she could stay, Fang Yun might have had another childhood sweetheart, but unfortunately he was learning swordsmanship with Ying at that time, and when he returned to Narukami Taisha, Kuki Shinobu had already run away.
"Wait, Yingmei, have you seen Yaemiyaji? Why did she take so long to Yingxiang Mountain?" Fang Yun asked before she left.
"Your Highness Fang Yun, you don't know that the monsters have gradually walked out of Yingxiang Mountain. They are all somewhat uncomfortable with their current life. The chief priest is explaining to them how to integrate into human society. In addition, he is also teaching the newly recruited priestesses at the new branch at the foot of the mountain." Daocheng Yingmei looked clearly respectful.
Fang Yun gave her a speechless look: "It's not working hours, so don't mention your position. I know your temper."
"Hehe, Fang Yun, if you didn't say so, I wouldn't dare to call you directly." Daocheng Yingmei smiled, "But Lord Gongsi is indeed very busy, uh... This is also related to Lord Kitsaigong."
Fang Yun could probably guess the reason. Hu Zhaigong would come to his bedroom every day to wake him up, so how could he let the Son of God slack off?
“But why did they suddenly build a branch?”
"Master Kitsusai said that since the hereditary system is to be changed, then the Narujin Taisha must naturally take the lead. In addition, the workload of the talisman factory is very large, and we priestesses alone are simply not enough."
Fang Yun touched his chin. This was indeed a problem. Although Hu Zhai Palace had greatly reduced the difficulty of making talismans, making talismans still required certain qualifications.
However, he felt that there was no need to limit the work of talisman making to shrine maidens. After all, the population of Inazuma was not large, and there might not be enough women who met the requirements. Perhaps a special profession of "Onmyoji" should be created?
Anyway, Nashida is planning to establish the Far East branch, and Zaoyou has also started to learn the Sage Mode, so it's normal to have an Onmyoji.
"I understand. I will talk to Huzaigong later. Now I will take Zaoyou out first." Fang Yun nodded at her.
Daocheng Yingmei smiled softly and watched the two people leaving.
Walking out of the inner house and through the winding corridors, the two arrived at the "work area" of Narujin Taisha Shrine.
This is also the place where Inagi folks come to worship. The facilities are relatively complete, and you can find wishing pools, prayer ema, fortune telling and other projects. At the back is the sacred cherry tree that seems to stand tall and straight.
When Fang Yun and Zao You arrived, although it was already evening, there were still many people coming to pay their respects.
"Yeah, it feels like there are a lot more people than before." Fang Yun used to be guarding the gate, so he was quite sensitive to the number of people.
Zaoyou explained, "It's mainly because the public security has improved. In the past, it was fine for the villagers at the foot of Yingxiang Mountain to come and pay their respects, but if someone came from Inazuma Castle, they would have to worry about whether they would encounter the Nobushi on the way."
Fang Yun nodded slightly. Ensuring public security was the first thing he had done since taking office.
But Inazuma was indeed too outrageous before. Every time he went to brush the sword guards, he wanted to complain that the strongholds of those ambush people were set up at the gates of other people's villages. How arrogant was that?
After watching the Inazuma people paying homage from a distance for a while, the two did not follow them in. They had already seen these things too many times.
The breeze blew, and the cherry petals scattered everywhere.
The two of them walked down the stairs and unknowingly arrived at the back mountain where Fang Yun used to stay.
This is also Zaoyou's favorite place. With Fang Yun covering for her, she can sleep peacefully.
Coming to the clear pond, Fang Yun reached out to catch the petals falling from the air, and his thoughts seemed to have returned to the past.
For Fang Yun, Narukami Taisha is the place where he has spent the longest time in Teyvat and where he has placed the most emotions.
Although he used to long for the hustle and bustle of the world down the mountain, he also liked the purity and tranquility of his training at Narujin Taisha Shrine.
With a slight sigh of melancholy, Fang Yun quickly recovered.
He is not Ganyu, so he will not be obsessed with his identity, not to mention that he has the nationality of Qifeng.
Zaoyou stood beside him, looking at their reflections in the pond, with the same expression of emotion.
She remembered that they could stand side by side before, but as time passed, their reflections in the water gradually changed.
Although she also likes to lean on Fang Yun's arms, the gap is too big and it is not acceptable.
"Time flies so fast..." Zaoyou pulled Fang Yun to sit down on the stone slab beside the pond. She supported her hands on the edge of the pond and looked up at the petals of the sacred cherry blossoms floating from above onto their shoulders. She felt like she had regained her old happiness. At that time, she even liked to catch crystal butterflies for Fang Yun.
By the way, it seemed that it was also here that she witnessed Qi Liangliang giving Fang Yun artificial respiration.
idiot!
They were both childhood sweethearts, but Qiliangliang always managed to outdo her.
But now, Qiliangliang shouldn't be able to come over, right?
Just as she was thinking this, she suddenly heard a familiar voice coming from the mountain road she and Fang Yun were walking on.
"Zaoyou is missing again. Qiliangliang, please smell where she is." Nana Shikano instructed.
Qi Liangliang chuckled: "Leave it to me!"
Zaoyou's eyes couldn't help but become resentful.
Nana Kano, were you the one who brought Kirara here?
......
ps: I need to prepare for level 4.
Volume 3: Chapter 28 Qi Liangliang, You're Too Reliant on the Super Cat Toy Stick
Qi Liangliang's sense of smell was already very strong, and he could detect the scents of Zaoyou and Fang Yun with just a casual sniff.
When facing Zaoyou, her playmate with whom she had been fighting since childhood, she used all her strength to transform into a Nekomata. Her ability to sense scents was further enhanced, and the pheromones related to Zaoyou even formed a path in front of her eyes that could indicate her location.
The Father of the Gods grant me vision!
Qi Liangliang ran quickly along the road to the back mountain, and then jumped from mid-air into Fang Yun's arms.
