First take half of the hot water to wash off the dirt and mud on his body, before Bai Shu dares to soak himself completely in the bathtub.The hot water is warm and comfortable, just to relieve his fatigue and sore muscles from the whole day, Bai Shu narrowed his eyes comfortably.

After leisurely soaking in hot water for a few minutes, Bai Shu began to carefully massage his joints.This body is thin and small, and the skeleton is a little thinner than that of children of the same age. It is estimated that the nutrition did not keep up when he was young.Thinking of this, Bai Shu couldn't help feeling sorry for the original owner.

He will live a good life in the future.

After washing, he came out of the tub, and Bai Shu picked up the suit of clothes that the old woman gave him, and his ears turned red.The clothes are Japanese style. According to what he looked around the village today, this place should be regarded as ancient Japan?But there is no problem with verbal communication, and it should not be counted as ancient Japan in his world.

The old lady was very careful, and even prepared clothes for him to wear next to him.But after all, I am still a child, and the underwear and trousers are simple styles, there are no clothes that need to set off the girl's figure...

With a cheeky face, Bai Shu slowly put on the apricot pink little girl's kimono.Looking up into the bronze mirror for dressing, a little girl with long wet hair looked at him innocently and in surprise.

Bai Shu covered his face!

I still feel quite ashamed to wear women's clothing!

Trying to be mentally prepared, Bai Shu carefully looked at the person in the mirror again.As far as the facial features are concerned, they still lean towards Bai Shu's original appearance. If you look carefully, you can still feel the shadow of yourself when you were a child.This surprised Bai Shu a little.

Could it be that he is still connected to this body?But since I can cross over, there should be some.

I don't know if it's because of the illusion of wearing women's clothing, but Bai Shu always feels that his facial features have become a little more delicate.It may also be that the children's facial features are not open, and people here are used to long hair?

"Does Bai Shu need help?" Seeing that Bai Shu hadn't come out of the bathroom for a long time, the old woman thought he was in trouble.

"You don't need to bother, I've already washed it." Bai Shu quickly replied, without leaving ink in the bathroom, he opened the door and went out.

Holding a clean and soft towel in her hand, the old lady looked at Bai Shu coming out of the bathroom with eyes filled with admiration, "What a beautiful and lovely child, it seems that Jie Zi's clothes are just right."

"Thank you...thank you." Bai Shu took the towel from the old woman and dried his wet hair.Children's hair is soft and textured, smooth as silk after washing.

Seeing that he had dried his hair, the old woman took out a small wooden box from the cabinet and handed it to Bai Shu. "These are what Jie Zi used when he was a child."

After he opened it, he froze in place. Inside the small wooden box were headbands and hairpin pearls used by little girls to tie their hair. Some of the iron ornaments had rusted, but their styles were still exquisite.

"When Jie Zi grows up, he doesn't like wearing these anymore. It's a pity to keep them in the box. I, an old woman, don't need them either. Would you like to try them, Bai Shu?"

"This... this..." Bai Shu was at a loss while holding the small wooden box, his voice was as soft as a mosquito, "I don't know how to use them, they are so beautiful, I'm afraid they will be damaged, so I don't need them."

"Don't be afraid, I'll teach you." The old woman sat beside Bai Shu gently, picked up the wooden comb in the small wooden box, and signaled Bai Shu to turn her head away.

"..." The blush spread from the base of the ear to the neck, Bai Shu felt like a cooked shrimp, exuding a burst of heat.He suddenly felt that his previous thoughts were too ignorant, but now he couldn't tell the kind-hearted old woman that he was not a girl, and what he said would be irreversible, so Bai Shu could only continue to endure the little shame in his heart and listen to the old woman teaching him to comb his hair.

The old woman's hands are very dexterous, she tied two braids for Bai Shu, and then coiled them into flowers.Fix it with a headband, and finally put two cherry pink beaded flowers on him, and a bell hangs on the lower end of the hanging tassel, which will make a crisp sound with the movement of Baishu.

After combing his hair, Bai pivoted his head to look at the bronze mirror.Even if he sees the person in the bronze mirror, he still thinks that person's gender is a little girl. If he pouts and acts coquettishly... the bronze mirror will honestly reflect Baishu's appearance.

"Now Bai Shu has become even cuter." The old woman's voice was gentle.

"Yes... yes." His voice was lowered a little, and Bai Shu, who was wearing a woman's attire, consciously maintained a lady's reserve.

"Then, rest early today. Tomorrow, you can go to the selection of witches after preparing. I hope that Baishu can get the favor of the gods and be selected successfully." The old woman put her hands together devoutly when she said the last sentence, as if to bless Baishu .

"Thank you." Bai Shu also clasped his hands together, blessing her like an old woman.May she be free from illness and sorrow for the rest of her life, and that gentle people will be treated gently by life.

Underworld.

The flowers on the other side are in full bloom on the banks of the River of Forgetfulness, and the ghosts step across the Naihe Bridge one by one.This is the reincarnation place of the undead from the mortal world, and it is in charge of Lord Yan Mo, the king of hell.

A golden spiritual power opened the book of life and death in charge of the judge, and modified the fate of an ordinary mortal written on a certain page.If Bai Shu were here, he would be able to recognize the content of his blessing for the old lady just now, all of which were added to the book of life and death by that spiritual power.

"This power..." The judge was stunned holding his pen. He recognized that it was the power of blessing and psychic power, but it was powerful enough to affect the luck in the book of life and death.Who is it? "Let's tell Lord Yan Mo."

The next day's weather was fine, and the morning sun poured down, covering the village, and everywhere became extraordinarily bright.

The faces of the villagers were full of joy, and they hung out the knotted ropes and bells to celebrate the autumn festival. When the breeze blows, every household can hear the crisp sound.

"It's so festive everywhere." Bai Shu wore the apricot pink kimono he changed into yesterday, and followed the old lady on clogs.

"Today is the autumn festival. It is a day worth celebrating and praying for blessings." The old lady told Bai Shu about the atmosphere of the festival, because when she met Bai Shu, she was a homeless child, so she said as much as possible. Be more detailed.

"About noon, the adults from the shrine will rush to the village to pray. Now, do you want Bai Shu to play with those children?" the old woman asked him.

"No, I'd better go and look at the stalls for you. Today is the autumn festival, and the business will definitely be good."

"What a sensible boy."

"This is what I should do." Bai Shu smiled, if he hadn't met this kind mother-in-law, he wouldn't know where he would be starving.

One large and one small tidied up the snack stalls, and Bai Shu helped the old woman wash and chop vegetables, moving as nimbly as a spinning top.Because it is the autumn festival, business is very good in the morning.In addition, the craftsmanship of the old lady is well-known in the village, and many customers patronize this stall.

"It's six silver coins in total. Thank you for your patronage. You are welcome to come again next time!" Bai Shu sold snacks with the old lady with a smiling face. His polite and cute appearance was very popular among the group of adults.

"Wow, this kid is so cute."

"He's also very sensible and good-looking. Do you want to consider making a baby kiss with my boy?"

"Can count, all right. What a clever boy!"

"Let my sister pinch your face, okay? My sister gave you a pair of beautiful hair flowers."

"..."

Sure enough, creatures such as aunts and sisters have been very scary since ancient times, Bai Shu thought while rubbing his face.This morning, he was often pinched by those big sisters. Although the force was not heavy, there were still red marks on Bai Shu's thin-skinned face.

"The harvest is full this morning, which is a very good omen in the autumn festival." The old woman cooked a bowl of noodles for Bai Shu, accompanied by the aroma of two poached eggs and green onions, which is very tempting, "Bai Shu, you have worked hard. Let's have lunch."

Bai Shu sat on the small stool next to the old woman, started sucking noodles, and finally finished the soup in one gulp, belching contentedly.

After he put down the bowl and chopsticks, the shrine staff who came to the village to pray for blessings finally arrived.

The village chief personally went to the entrance of the village to greet her, and the one who walked in the front was a girl in a red and white priestess costume.She has a gentle face, her long black hair is tied into a low ponytail with a red rope, and she holds a round fan and a string of special bells in her hand.

Immediately behind that girl, there were dozens of other girls wearing similar priestess costumes.But there is an obvious gap in the costumes of the two, both of which are white and red, and the girl in the front is much more grand.

"At the front is the big witch who prayed for blessings and sacrifices this time, and behind her is the little witch. Behind her is the maid attendant, who is responsible for maintaining order and protecting the witches." The old woman followed Bai Shu's gaze. He looked over, and then explained to Bai Shu the rank relationship in that line.

"It's amazing." Bai Shu sighed.Just coming to a small village to pray and sacrifice, the shrine is so big, there are at least dozens of people in this team.I remember the old lady said that this is a shrine in Chiba Town, if it is a shrine in the city, it might be even bigger.

The status of witches is very high.Wherever they walked, the villagers cast respectful gazes, as if they could see the gods they believed in through them.

"We are going to attend the blessing ceremony too. Bai Shu pack up your things and come with me." The old woman looked at the flow of people gathering in one direction, and hurriedly told Bai Shu to go with her. "Ceremonies such as the selection of witches must wait after the blessing ceremony."

"Okay." Bai Shu was also very curious about the blessing ceremony.

Following the flow of people from the whole village, Bai Shu and the old woman walked slowly behind.

The little beggar on weekdays also followed everyone in a well-regulated manner.They were timid or silent, and their eyes were filled with anticipation for the annual blessing ceremony.Only today, they will not be rejected by the people in the village, can accept the kindness brought by the shrine, be blessed by the gods, and tell themselves that they are not abandoned.

The place where the ceremony was held was chosen by the great witch according to the will of the gods, and this time it happened to be right in front of the old woman's house.People cast envious eyes on her one after another, even the old lady herself was very happy.

The meaning of the blessing ceremony is that the witches pray to the gods for the villagers and pray for the protection of the gods.The closer the house is to the place of blessing, the more blessings it will naturally receive.

"Sir, the gods we believe in, those who pray to you here are all people who believe in you." The big witch raised the bell in her hand to the top of her head, and her crisp voice had a strange rhythm. People stopped and looked, those people The witches began to play Kagura and dance ritual dances in the name of holiness and piety.

When the big witch's bell and Kagura drum stopped, Bai Shu saw a pale golden light falling from the sky and sinking into this land.

"Really..." Did divine power really descend?Bai Shu watched this scene in shock.He didn't come back to his senses until the old woman called him to bow down to God Bless together.

Bowing their heads to the bell in the hands of the great witch together with the villagers, the three views of Bai Shu, an atheist, were destroyed. In this world, there really are gods.

The blessing ceremony is officially over.The villagers got up from their knees.

After Bai Shu got up, he helped the old woman up from the ground.I still have lingering fears about the scene I saw just now, "Grandma, did you just see the pale golden light fall into the ground?"

"Light?" The old lady looked puzzled.

"Can you also see the divine light?" A voice as gentle as a spring breeze came suddenly, and the crowded crowd made way for the owner of the voice, and what fell into Bai Shu's eyes was a piece of crimson cloth.He looked up, just in time to meet the eyes of the big witch.

"It's...a light golden light..." Bai Shu grumbled.

"That is the divine light that only those with pure spiritual power can see." The great witch said this, her eyes flashed a little moved.She couldn't see the divine light, she could only feel the divine light descending.However, from the mouths of some talented priestesses, the divine light is pale golden, and it can cover the entire land after every blessing.

Under Bai Shu's astonished eyes, the big witch took out four pieces of broken jade from the waist pouch and put them in front of him, "Try to restore them into a whole piece of jade."
