Chapter 308 Early Pomelo is going now
"These are not the water of life at all. Of course, there is one pool, but the rest are actually wine."
Zaoyou, however, did not believe what Xu Ning said.
"The shrine maiden said so too, but the Water of Life isn't sake. Hayato secretly went and bought sake to drink, but it tasted wrong and was awful, unlike the Water of Life, which is very soothing."
Xu Ning led Zaoyou to the wine spring in the cave. Zaoyou pointed to the "Thousand Winds Wine Spring" and said that this was the "water of life" that the two sisters had given her to drink last time.
"Where did these two older sisters come from?"
Xu Ning was taken aback for a moment, but still repeatedly emphasized the side effects of these things.
"This is really alcohol, and the consequences of drinking it are terrible."
"If you drink these things, you might fall off a tree while you're sleeping and end up in the river, where you won't wake up and will drown."
"It's also possible that while on a secret infiltration mission, someone would swagger out from the shadows and shout for another bowl, only to be hacked to death."
"Or you might suddenly feel that you can easily beat the shrine maiden, and bravely rush over, only to be hung from a tree and flicked on the forehead to death."
These consequences, which she didn't want to face at all, did make Zaoyou flinch, but the little girl still mustered her courage and said, "As long as I can grow taller..."
Such a deep obsession!
Seeing that he couldn't persuade her, Xu Ning walked to the side of "Qianyan Wine Spring," picked up Qingyi, and asked in front of Zaoyou, "Qingyi, tell the truth, will drinking alcohol make you taller?"
The woman in green immediately shook her head.
Xu Ning laughed and said, "Look, she's already denied it..."
"Just drinking isn't enough; you also need to have faith in the omnipotent goddess of wine, who will grant you any wish..."
Xu Ning threw her out before she could finish speaking.
How could you do something like snatching a believer right in front of the wind god?
However, judging from the wind god over there, he has probably already become this loyal follower.
"Well then, I asked the chief priest a long time ago to ask the Last Squad to take action and find evidence of Kujo Takayuki's collusion with the Fools at the Tenryo Magistrate's house. The shrine maiden told me that you were the most suitable candidate, but we just could never catch you..."
Xu Ning pointed to "Thousand Winds Wine Spring" and said, "If you can get the evidence I want from there unscathed, I can give you some Thousand Winds Wine, but you can only drink it under the supervision of the witch sister."
Even though work would interfere with her sleep and growth, the thought of drinking the "life-giving water" that would help her grow taller made Zaoyou nod firmly.
"I need to go now, and I must drink it before going to bed."
After Xu Ning sent Zaoyou out of the cave, a flash of lightning appeared in the air next to Jiuquan's "Thousand Birds," and a barrier that looked like a transparent screen broke open, revealing the Eightfold Divine Child leaning against the blue stone.
"Oh dear, it seems everyone is getting busy, I can't keep slacking off like this."
Outside the cave, Xu Ning watched as Zao You disappeared into the dense forest in a single somersault. He stroked his chin, thinking, "Ninjutsu is pretty cool, isn't it? Should I pester the little raccoon to teach me a few tricks, like invisibility or transformation techniques..."
Now that Zaoyou had already set off, Xu Ning returned to Narukami Shrine.
Inashiro Hotaru called out Kano Nana, who was planning to ambush Hayato in his room, and Xu Ning frankly revealed his agreement with Hayato.
"You actually used this gimmick of making her grow taller to trick Zaoyou into drinking alcohol, and then made her do things for you?"
Xu Ning looked at Kano Nana, who was indeed angry, and said with a wry smile, "Don't say that. Why do I sound like a goldfish?"
"Think about it, Zaoyou has already secretly gone to buy wine to drink in order to find the so-called Water of Life. My wine will soon be available for sale in the Faraway Wind. Instead of waiting for her to buy it and drink it secretly, why don't you get your hands on it in advance? Then you won't have to work so hard. You can supervise Zaoyou's training and accept missions just like I do."
After listening to Xu Ning's words, Kano Nana suddenly felt that they made some sense.
After all, this little guy Zaoyou usually disappears without a trace, so if possible...
"Ahem, I admit there's some truth to what you said. Let's wait for her to come back, but let's make it clear beforehand that the wine must be kept here with me."
Xu Ning immediately agreed.
All that's left is to wait.
Just as Xu Ning was considering whether to take out two porcelain bowls and invite the two people in front of him to have a drink with him, a flash of purple lightning appeared beside him, and the Eightfold Divine Child appeared next to Xu Ning with a bowl of wine.
"Lord of the Palace." Two priestesses hurriedly came over to pay their respects.
Xu Ning casually raised the wine gourd in his hand, "Lord Miyaji, you've finally come out. By the way, won't your absence from Narukami Shrine have any negative effects?"
Yae no Miko took a small sip of her wine and laughed, "Oh dear, we've only been together for a few days, and you're already so annoyed with me that you want to kick me out? I was hoping to take you somewhere just the two of us to try something we'd never done before."
Xu Ning sighed and pointed to Inashiro Hotaru and Kano Nana beside him, "Lord Miyaji, do you know you scared them?"
Yae no Miko covered her mouth and chuckled, "Alright, it was just a joke. But I really do need to take you somewhere, so you two can wait for Hayazu here!"
Yae no Miko guided Xu Ning towards the foot of the mountain. The two passed through the Guardian Forest and arrived at a dilapidated shrine at the foot of the mountain.
here it is……?
Xu Ning unconsciously pressed the comb that was placed on his chest.
Yae no Miko stood quietly in the distance, hands tucked into her sleeves, gazing at the dilapidated shrine for a while. Her eyes seemed to sparkle with starlight. After a long while, she smiled and said, "I didn't bring you here for nostalgia. That little thing, I think it's around here!"
Yae no Miko walked to a deserted lawn, gently waved her hand while forming a lightning spell, and a sound like the barrier breaking rang out. Suddenly, a stone pillar engraved with runes appeared in the center of the lawn.
"This is it. Back then, to deal with that guy, we designed a special training device. Well, given the current situation, let's call it the 'Anti-Lightning General Special Training Device'."
Xu Ning hadn't expected that the Eightfold Divine Child was actually planning to give him special training.
"This... Lord Chief, I actually have no intention of being an enemy of the General. After all, I represent Liyue, and it would be wrong to harm the relationship between our two countries by fighting with the General..."
Yae no Miko laughed and said, "It's just a fitting name. It's not like I'm really asking you to kill my friend. Besides, don't you really want to give it a try?"
"Here, you can even see the prototype of Wuxiang's slash!"
