The Self-cultivation of the Passerby Male Protagonist

Wu Ye pushed aside the broom, his head felt a little numb, it seemed that Lingmeng's hand was a little ignorant, if he tried harder, he might be lying here.

"Do you still know it hurts?!" Seeing Wu Ye's old-fashioned look of admitting his mistakes and refusing to correct them, Reimu's anger didn't go anywhere. Although this guy is usually so virtuous, but I don't know why, today The desire to teach him a lesson is particularly strong.

Thinking about it, the broom couldn't satisfy Reimu. She clenched her fists, with a malicious smile on her face, and forced the smiling Takeya back to the corner of the shrine until she was called to stop.

"Reimu, don't bully Takeya."

An old but very kind voice came from behind the shrine, Reimu's fist couldn't land, she couldn't help but flatten her mouth, turned around and complained to the visitor: "Grandmother! It's all Takeya, he's too much! I just asked him for such a small matter, and he just pushed back!"

"...Mother-in-law?"

Hearing the incomprehensible address from Reimu's mouth, Wu Ye looked behind her in surprise, and there was a strange old woman standing there.

Her pale hair hangs down, and she has a kind and amiable appearance just like the voice makes people feel. Although she is called "mother-in-law", she actually looks less than 20 years old.

It's just that those deep eyes were much more mature than Reimu's. She was also wearing a red and white maiden costume, and she was holding a bamboo basket with some ingredients in it.

Wu Ye stared blankly at the white-haired witch in front of him, and asked involuntarily, "Who are you?"

"Huh?" Lingmeng turned her head, with the expression of seeing a ghost.

The white-haired witch was also stunned for a while, and then came up and touched Wu Ye's forehead in a funny way: "What's wrong with you, Wu Ye?"

Just like the elders caring for the younger generation, Wu has not felt that tenderness for a long time. The white-haired priestess made such a move towards him very naturally, and he didn't even have time to avoid it.

The white-haired witch caught a glimpse of the dodge in Takeya's eyes, and an indescribable sense of disobedience welled up in her heart, but she concealed it well: "What's the matter, are you feeling unwell?"

"...that's so weird."

Wu also murmured in disbelief, then his eyes narrowed slightly, almost asking: "Who are you?"

Snapped.

At this moment, Reimu punched Takeya on the back of the head unceremoniously, and scolded: "You are too rude to my mother-in-law, you idiot!"

Wu Ye was photographed staggering, touching the back of his head, with a dazed look that didn't react.

"Ha ha."

The white-haired priestess shook her head helplessly, and after confirming that Takeya didn't have a fever, she pointed at Reimu reproachfully, and then went to the back room of the shrine with the ingredients.

Only Takeya was left muttering to himself, "The red and white priestess costume...wouldn't be a Moriya. That means she's also Hakurei's priestess?"

"Mother-in-law is of course Hakurei's maiden, what's wrong with you, Takeya." Reimu frowned and looked at Takeya.

"Hakurei's priestess... is it an ancestor? Although I have considered the existence of differences..."

Wu Ye pondered for a moment, then looked at Lingmeng: "How old is she today? From the looks of it, she shouldn't be 30 years old, right?"

"I've said it all, call me mother-in-law! What's going on with you today, rebellious period?"

Slapping her finger on Wu Ye's forehead, Lingmeng said dissatisfiedly: "My mother-in-law has been retired for so many years, isn't it too much for you to talk about the old man's age? Sure enough, you and Zi should not be separated. It's so close, I was taken away by that guy!"

"Retirement?" Wu Ye opened his mouth slightly, as if hearing this word for the first time.

"Nonsense, can you still be a witch for a lifetime?" Lingmeng said angrily: "Grandma must have been deceived by that guy Zi, and she insisted on staying until she was 60 years old before retiring. I don't want to. After I find the next witch, You must run away immediately! Whoever likes this poor witch should go!"

Although the second half of the sentence was entirely her self-complaint, it stopped in Wu Ye's ears like a thunderbolt.

He wasn't surprised that the "mother-in-law" who didn't look 20 years old was actually an old man in her 60s. He was surprised that this Hakurei Miko of Gensokyo had no life limit.

That also means that the Hakurei barrier here is not maintained by the dedication of the witches like in his world.

"Maybe it wasn't me who chose this world, but this perfect world chose me."

Luo Tianshu's words echoed in his mind again, and Wu Ye seemed to understand what he meant.

Some couldn't hold back the throbbing in their hearts. If the so-called fate had something to do with it, then perhaps that devil-like guy led him to this place to let him see all of this.

This is a beautiful scene that I have never expected even in the most absurd dream, and it is also the answer that I have hoped for a miracle.

Deep in my heart, the seeds of the devil have taken root and germinated. Once the thoughts sprouted, they can't be erased no matter what. Like tarsal maggots, they entwine Wu Ye's thought center tightly, as if even every word and deed is controlled by it.

not enough.

Just keep watching.

Wu Ye's trembling hands slowly calmed down.

"Reimu."

Wu Ye's face gradually returned to normal, and he even smiled: "It's still early, let's go and buy tea together."

Lingmeng waved her hand, avoided it and said, "...that's disgusting, why did you suddenly laugh? Alright, alright, I'll just go with you."

Chapter 37 The Journey's End

"Sincerity, one hundred words."

Amid the shopkeeper's bright smile, which was far beyond professional, Reimu walked out of the tea shop cursing, and when he turned around, he saw Takeya's stinky smile.

"Bastard, you are still smiling so happily when my old lady was tricked!"

"No, I think it's thanks to Hakurei Miko's care that his business is booming." Wu Ye was not mocking, Reimu seemed to have a sign of being taken advantage of on her forehead, and every shopkeeper would arrest her Pit to death.

The key is that even though Reimu's intuition looks down on Wu Ye during the war, it is always a bit late at this time. After the money and goods are cleared, she has no choice but to jump at Wu Ye like this.
