And the one in front of him, how should I put it... doesn't have the lofty attitude of the immortal, but instead has a vague sense of distorted incongruity, like the smile on the face of a clown, with a dark taste too strong.
"Why do immortals come to my shrine?"
Reimu's expression is definitely not friendly, it's very rude for a person meeting for the first time, but she doesn't realize it, after all, she doesn't want to see who taught it...
"Shouldn't immortals stay in the heavens?"
Marisa's opening eased the atmosphere: "Could it be that something happened again?"
"It's a mutation...well."
Huo Qing'e said vaguely and authentically, and her smiling appearance only made people feel that the credibility was very low.
"Something happened in the heaven. It seems that an unknown young lady ran away from home."
"Ah?" Lingmeng said with a straight face, extremely indifferently: "What does that have to do with me? As you can see, there is no one here except us."
"It seems to be the same. This is really disturbing. She should be here..."
It was embarrassing in her words, but Huo Qing'e didn't show the slightest worry on her face, it might be better to say that the smile in her eyes increased a bit.
female fox...
Lingmeng cursed secretly in her heart, but her face remained calm: "Since you know that the young lady is no longer here, you should leave, right?"
"It's really impolite, is this how Hakurei Miko treats guests?"
"That depends on who the guest is, no, what kind of guest are you!"
"Hehe, it's really cold, but forget it."
Facing Lingmeng's bad attitude, Huo Qing'e showed the demeanor of a fairy, and didn't care about her, but said kindly: "I'm here this time because of the eldest lady of the heaven, and there are other things. .”
"Go quickly if you have something to do, don't bother me."
"But what if I say, this matter is related to you?"
"Huh?" Lingmeng's expression changed slightly, and she looked at Huo Qing'e with an increasingly hostile expression: "Do you want to be expelled too?"
"Hey, trust me a little bit."
Huo Qing'e touched the non-existing tears in the corners of her eyes, and pretended to be aggrieved that she was about to cry. Under that lovable posture, there was a bit of natural obsequiousness.
"He really came to talk to you about something serious." Huo Qing'e lowered her voice and said in a weak voice on purpose: "Don't you want to know the cause of the earthquake?"
"Sure enough, this is man-made!"
Huo Qing'e's words successfully attracted Lingmeng's attention, and she asked in a more rude tone than before: "Quickly tell me, who exactly attacked my old lady's shrine!"
Only when questioning others can the identity of the maintainer of order in Gensokyo be reflected. The sign of Hakurei Miko may not have been carried since modern times.
It's just that no one wants to do that...
"Please don't get me wrong, I didn't do this."
The hostility in Lingmeng's eyes was visible, and Huo Qing'e didn't want to touch her brow without saying a word, this is a gasoline barrel that explodes at a single point, and the scope of its impact is very wide.
"Then tell me, who is the culprit?"
"I'm very sorry, Miss Miko, I don't know who the prisoner is, but—"
When Lingmeng was about to get impatient, Huo Qing'e skillfully used the charm of words to suppress the other party's anger: "I know the cause of the earthquake."
"……reason?"
"Yes."
Inducing each other little by little, Huo Qing'e, who had gained a foundation of trust, passed the two of them step by step, and stopped about ten steps in front of the shrine.
"Here," Huo Qing'e tapped the ordinary stone brick under her feet with her toes, and said, "The 'reason' lies in it."
"Here? You didn't lie to me?"
Looking at that ordinary stone brick, Lingmeng really couldn't think of any "reason" in it, but Huo Qing'e had no reason to tease her with such a boring trick.
So despite being full of doubts, Reimu and Marisa removed the stone bricks together. The trouble is comparable to repairing a house. You ask her why she didn't smash it with a punch?nonsense!Don't even look at whose home it is!
The two removed the stone bricks, and under Huo Qing'e's guidance, they dug down a short distance.
Click!
The shovel in Reimu's hand let out a mournful sound, and the vibration fed back from above made Reimu grit his teeth.
"What is so hard..."
The two laboriously dug a part towards the side, and only then did the unknown object be completely exposed to the sun.
"Stone?"
It was a stone bound with shimenawa rope.
"This is not an ordinary stone, but a 'required stone'."
Huo Qing'e kindly explained to the two of them that that cute look of thinking about others was so deceptive that no one saw the corners of her mouth slightly raised.
"This is what caused the earthquake, and only by pulling it out can we completely eradicate the hidden danger."
"Can you take it out?"
