Standing here, you can already see the silhouette of Narukami Taisha Shrine.
Further up, there are layers of steps.
The carriage couldn't go up; they had to walk.
Xiao Gong paid the fare, thanked the driver, picked up the fireworks box from the car, turned to look at the high steps, and slowly exhaled.
"I'll have to do my best this time! ... The last time I came here was last year when Ayaka invited me to deliver fireworks to Lord Kuji... I wonder if I should do it again for this year's summer festival..."
Although the box in Xiaogong's hand looked rather large, it only contained fireworks and some straw strips, and wasn't very heavy.
For someone with the eyes of a god, carrying a box up the mountain was not a difficult task.
As they climbed the steps, Xiaogong also discovered something strange.
That is, there seem to be many more people going to Narukami Taisha than before.
Although Inazuma's lockdown order has been lifted this year, many foreign tourists have come to visit.
But from what she saw, most of them seemed to be locals.
Moreover, many of them came in groups.
Yoomiya was a little curious, so she went over to ask them and found out that these people had come for the Narukami Taisha's cafeteria.
This……
I made a special trip to climb Mount Kagemaki just to have a meal at the shrine...
Xiao Gong's expression became somewhat strange.
--
After Xia Zhi finished testing the multi-purpose syringe, he had nothing to do in the morning.
Most of the girls in the family have gone out to play.
Xia Zhi stood beside the altar of the divine divination sticks, watching the lively scene of drawing and interpreting the sticks.
Ah Xing blushed slightly and came over to thank him quietly.
Kano Nana took the prescription and went to the city to buy the medicine for her. She had already taken it several times.
Although the taste wasn't great, the effect was excellent; the abdominal pain that had tormented her for so long had disappeared.
Xia Zhi smiled and nodded, saying, "It's good that you're better. No need to be so polite."
Ah Xing hesitated for a moment, then blushed and said, "Mr. Xia, there's something else I'd like to ask you."
Xia Zhi asked curiously, "What is it?"
Ah Xing whispered, "Ah Nai actually has the same problem as me... so I wanted to ask if she can use the prescription you gave me?"
Xia Zhi shook his head: "No, the prescription I gave you is only effective for you. If other people drink it, it will not only be useless, but may even cause poisoning."
Ah Xing was stunned: "Huh?"
"She didn't drink anything indiscriminately, did she?"
"not yet……"
"That's good. When you see when she's free, have her come to me. I'll take her pulse again and prescribe a special medicine."
"Thank you, Mr. Xia!"
Xia Zhi nodded.
Just as he had thought, quite a few of the shrine maidens shared Ayumi's problem.
Ayumi was probably afraid that Nana Kano would really drink her medicine indiscriminately, so she quickly left to tell her about it.
Xia Zhi remained standing in place, looking at the masses of people who came to worship at the temple through the vision of his glasses.
At one moment, a familiar fiery red figure appeared in his field of vision.
He was the manager of the Naganohara fireworks shop.
Xia Zhi had an impression of this energetic girl.
The main issue is the silver progress bar that he hasn't filled up yet, which is still attached to her.
A couple of days ago, we all went shopping at Inazuma City. Klee insisted on buying something, so we had to give in and she placed an order at the store.
He also learned a new skill from her at that time – [Fireworks Mastery].
Judging from the way she's carrying that box today, she must be here to deliver goods.
At the same time that Xia Zhi discovered Xiao Gong, Xiao Gong also saw him.
She also remembered Xia Zhi, because he was the one who paid the deposit at the store.
Xiaogong walked towards him with a happy expression.
"Guest! The fireworks you ordered are ready!"
"is it?"
"Special fireworks with a four-leaf clover design! We guarantee you'll be satisfied!"
"What if I'm not satisfied?"
"No way! I've never encountered anyone who was dissatisfied. Even the General and the Chief Justice are satisfied with the fireworks in our shop!"
"Oh? Your shop used to make fireworks for the General and the Chief Justice?"
Xia Zhi became somewhat interested.
"Amazing."
He took the fireworks box from Xiaogong and paid the final payment.
Xiaogong looked around and asked curiously, "Where is that little girl?"
Which little girl?
"It's that little girl in the red dress who came to our store that day and said she wanted to buy fireworks!"
"You mean Klee? ...She went out to play."
"Oh."
Xiaogong was slightly disappointed.
Perhaps it's because they both possess the Eye of God of Fire.
She quite liked the little girl named Claire.
And then there's that girl named Xiangling. Although the two of them have only exchanged a few words, she feels that their personalities seem to be very compatible!
Unfortunately, they don't seem to be at the shrine anymore.
Xiao Gong waved to Xia Zhi, then ran energetically to the divination table next to him.
When you come to Narukami Taisha, you definitely have to draw lots!
Xia Zhi glanced at her, smiled, and then ignored her. Instead, he walked to the side, opened the firework box in his hand, took out a specially made firework, and began to examine it.
Because he possesses the skill "Fireworks Mastery," he also has considerable knowledge about fireworks manufacturing.
His fingers moved nimbly, quickly disassembling a firework and revealing its various internal components.
"I see... This idea of using it to create the pattern is quite ingenious..."
Xia Zhi picked up some gunpowder with his fingers.
"This formula is quite interesting; it turns the fireworks green, making the blooming four-leaf clovers look incredibly lifelike..."
As expected of a fireworks shop that can satisfy both the general and the divine child.
Although it's a bit pricey, the quality is indeed very good.
"Oh dear? Why did you take the fireworks apart!"
A hurried voice came from behind, accompanied by the sound of running footsteps.
Xiaogong squatted down next to him and began to reassemble the disassembled parts.
Her movements were very skillful.
Soon, the firework returned to its original state.
Xiaogong breathed a sigh of relief, then turned and said seriously, "Guest, please do not disassemble the fireworks without permission. Look, there's a stove right next to us! It's very dangerous!"
The stove she was referring to was the one used to burn the skewers.
Disassembling fireworks or playing with gunpowder next to an open flame is indeed very dangerous for ordinary people.
Xia Zhi nodded and said, "Yes, I understand. I was just a little curious..."
Yonomiya continued his stern reprimand: "Being curious is no good! What if you get hurt! Besides, this is a shrine! Look how many people are here!"
Xia Zhi nodded again: "I'm sorry."
Yoomiya sighed, "Well, I'll just take the fireworks directly to the warehouse for you. I've been to the shrine before and know where the warehouse is. It's daytime now, so it's impossible to set off fireworks."
As she spoke, she put the firework back in the box, then picked up several boxes and walked in a certain direction.
Xia Zhi looked at the girl's back in his field of vision, shook his head and smiled.
