[Noragami] Picked up an Ebisu

×××The legend about the fragrance of well water×××

After finding a clue, Ye Dou happily went to have a big meal, but when he met the old man Kaoshen, he got a piece of news that almost hit him with a thunderbolt——

"The water in all shrines has this smell."

ha?The wind was so loud that I didn't hear anything!Yeto turned pale and fell to his knees with a plop.

"Don't be discouraged, it's an important clue after all." Uncle Kaoshen narrowed his eyes with a smile, Yeto swore he had never seen such a poor smoker in his life, only to hear Kaoshen paused slightly, " It is strange that only the well water of the shrine has this unique smell."

"Ugh?"

Yato stood up swiftly, as if he had heard some new clue, "Is it only from the shrine? Don't lie to me, old man."

"I don't have time to lie to you." Kao Shen pointed to the tens of thousands of lottery tickets in the shrine, "I can deal with these enough, I don't have the time to tease you."

So envious, Yato looked at the layers of prayers, and suddenly felt a little poor.But he didn't think Kaoshen was so tall, after all, he was just a little old man, an ordinary little old man who was particularly sensitive to words like "Zuoqian" and "Sangjiagou".

"Then what is the origin of this smell?" Yato stopped his admiration for the many believers, and continued to ask, "Since it tastes the same as this powdered ash, there must be something special about it."

"This..." The test took the bottle of ashes and sniffed it, "It really smells the same."

"Then it seems that you have nothing to do, old man, and you lied about being well-educated, huh." Ye Dou rolled his eyes.

"Hey, who told you that I don't know?" Kao Shen shrugged, "It's just that there are several versions of the story of this thing, let me tell you in detail."

"Quick!" Yedou moved a small chair impatiently and sat down, looking at Grandpa Kaoshen with his sincere eyes, showing his desire to seek knowledge.

"First, it is said that this fragrance is God's sympathy for the gods who can't get rid of the pain of An Wu's rebirth in the end, so they dripped their own blood into the well water in Yebisu Shrine, so that the well water is connected everywhere. Then they all have this wonderful fragrance and miraculous effect." Kaoshen said unhurriedly, but seeing the way he stroked his beard, Yato felt that he didn't believe this statement, so he urged: "Second Woolen cloth?"

"Don't worry, you have to come the same way." Kao Shen smiled slightly, "Secondly, it means that this fragrance comes from the lamentation of the gods and artifacts. The artifacts were ashamed to hurt the gods, so they sat down and prayed for water. The forgiveness of the well water has given this incredible ability. Third, it is said that the fragrance comes from the blood of the gods. The gods everywhere donate their own blood to pray for the antidote with their own renewal, and The large amount of blood that gathered the wishes of the gods flowed into the well water in the backyard of the Yebisu God's house, and soon the magical power was born."

"Ebisu again?"

"You also found out, the well water in the Ebisu Shrine appeared twice." Kao Shen covered his mouth with a fan, and said mysteriously: "Therefore, there are speculations from the outside world that the source of this water is Ebisu. Kotobuki Shrine."

"grown ups!"

Still caught in the mysterious atmosphere of Kao Shen, Yato was startled by the sudden female voice. He turned his head and saw a woman wearing a priestess costume with long hair and shawl.Yato had heard that Kaoshen had a habit of having artifacts dressed as witches, so it was not surprising that she was dressed like this. It was just the plum blossoms on the woman's forehead that caught his attention.

"Mei Yu." Smiling, Kao Shen stretched out his hand to embrace the woman with the plum blossom branding, but she turned around and avoided it.The woman named Meiyu stood still facing Yato, and then said coldly: "The smell in the water is the smell of plants."

"Ugh?"

——What's the situation?

Yato scratched his head for some unknown reason, only to hear Kaoshen over there grinning and said, "Meiyu can hear the language of plants, so she also knows a little about everything about plants."

Mei Yu ignored Kaoshen, but continued to say to Yato: "The only thing I can communicate with is the living beings, you ashes, I'm afraid there is no way." She stared at the ashes in the bottle, and continued: "I'm sure it's the smell of plants, but it's strange, but I can't tell which plant the smell belongs to."

××××××

After returning from Kaoshin Shrine, Yato fell into deep contemplation, is it a plant?According to Kao Shen, according to Mei Yu's understanding of plants, it shouldn't be impossible to recognize this smell, so what's going on?Is it a strange plant smell?

Just as he was thinking, his phone received an email from Tetsuya Yamamoto.

——With new progress, come see me soon.

The feeling of saying nothing and saying nothing is really annoying.Yato shrugged his shoulders, and in the next second, he appeared in front of a gentle man wearing black-rimmed glasses.

"What about Natsuki Yamamoto and Kei Suzuki?"

Asking such a stupid question as soon as he came, Yamamoto also felt that the etiquette he had learned since he was a child collapsed in front of this man at this moment.It's just not fun to play!Tetsu Yamamoto also pursed his lips, and continued: "This is exactly what I want to talk about."

"Please say."

"I told you about Natsuki Yamamoto and Qi Suzuki. I decided to let the two of them marry on behalf of a company or even a consortium, and let the Suzuki Group pull us in."

"No way." Yato gave Yamamoto Tetsuya a guilty look. As far as he was concerned, he didn't want Suzuki Qi to get married at all. "Tell me about the result of handing over the power of attorney to someone else last time."

"It has eased up for a while. I don't know what happened. Business has recovered to a large extent after that, but it hasn't been long, and now it's worrying again. By the way, Mr. Yato, what I want to say is , another treasure about the patron saint that I have told you about."

This made Ye Dou curious, "What is it?"

"A dry bookmark made from leaves." Tetsuya Yamamoto shrugged, "I found that thing, and it was given to Qi Suzuki by my family's Natsuki Yamamoto in another nonsense."

During this time, Nakajima Xiaoli was busy preparing for the exam, and Ebisu was busy preparing for the meeting.

Because of losing memory for so long, there are even rumors that something went wrong and turned into an idiot.In order to prove that their remarks were slander out of nothing, Ebisu was urged by Iwaya to deal with the affairs, and the time was much less.

Nakajima Xiaoli will still run her own small coffee shop after school, which is no longer her mother's dream. In other words, this coffee house is sacred and meaningful in Nakajima Xiaoli's eyes.
