Zongman: Dream with me

Chapter 122 Fishing by the Lake

Mu You had no way of knowing about the argument between Yukinoshita and her sister, and even if he knew, he probably wouldn't care.

He went to Yahara and Kyoto these days, but unfortunately he still didn't get the news he wanted.

In desperation, Mu You had to return to Aomuran, in the area known as the original land, where he only gained memories of his previous life.

But this time he tried several times but still got no results. In desperation, Mu You had to start fishing.

Just break off a mangosteen, roll out a hook and fishing line by hand, and find a few earthworms from the pile of soil next to it, and a simple set of equipment is complete.

Although the efficiency was a little low, Mu You was lucky.

Facing the gentle breeze blowing from the lake, Mu You sat there for an entire afternoon, paying no attention to anything else but staring blankly at the fish floating, repeatedly raising the rod, putting the fish in, hanging the bait, and then releasing the rod.

In the small pond he had divided out nearby, there were several crucian carp and grass carp swimming around, all of them quite large.

Mu You wanted to use this to kill time and adjust his frustrated mood after having gained nothing in the past few days.

"Ah, it's Yuu, ah-ho!"

Suddenly, a girl in a white school uniform emerged from the bushes nearby. She was wearing a brown mesh top on the lower body and holding a schoolbag in her hand. It seemed that she had just returned from school.

"Good afternoon, Ying."

"You, it's you!" The girl ran towards Mu You with a smile, breaking Mu You's Qi-cultivation skills and scaring away a group of fish surrounding the bait.

"Aha, sorry." Tiannv Muying scratched her head with a silly smile.

"It's okay. I've almost finished fishing anyway. But you seem to know I'm here?"

"Ah, it was Grandma Nakayama who told me. She said she saw You going up the mountain, but I didn't find You at the shrine."

"Then why don't you put down your schoolbag before coming to see me."

Mu You pointed at Tiannv Muying's handbag and asked, but she just chuckled and said she was too excited to remember.

"You-kun, are you fishing?"

"Yeah, doesn't this lake allow it?"

"Well," the goddess tapped her lips, looking at the sunset in the distance, thinking.

"It's not an explicit ban, but for the villagers, this lake is where the power of Xayiji lies. The villagers admire Xayiji, so they won't come here to disturb her..."

"Is that so? But it's okay. If you have any objections, you can talk to me in person."

"How could Lady Xayiki care about such trivial matters?"

"That's true, but I'm really curious."

The existence of this village is very strange, and so is this lake. If there really were gods, they should know their own life experiences and why they came to this world.

How should I go back?

"Then you can wait until the festival, Yu-kun. We have a lot of activities then: fireworks start in the morning, and portable shrines of all sizes parade through the town. The grandparents and I will make ornaments and hang them on the torii to add to the festive atmosphere. Since it coincides with a holiday, people from outside the town will also come by car to participate in the festival, making it quite lively."

"Really? Then I can't miss it." Mu You recalled the goddess's music and dance in the animation, and couldn't help but feel a little excited.

"...Wow, so many fish!" The goddess Mu Ying became excited when she saw the small fish pond that Mu You had divided out with magic power next to her. She jumped into it and wanted to catch the fish in it.

But due to excessive excitement, he accidentally broke through the barrier set by Mu You, causing the fish to quickly escape. Tiannvmu immediately tried to catch them, but after flapping in the water for a long time, he only caught two larger crucian carp.

"Aha, sorry." It seemed that the other party also realized that these were all caught by Mu You.

Mu You silently looked away.

"what happened?"

Tiannvmu walked out of the water, soaking wet, and approached Mu You.

"your clothes……"

Mu You was stunned. Are all the girls in the countryside so unrestrained these days? She wasn't even wearing a bra. Under her soaked school uniform, Mu You accidentally saw that charming look.

"Aha, sorry..."

"..."

What a thick-skinned girl.

"Time is running out, let's go back. Is it still convenient for you to go?"

"Ok?"

In the end, it was Mu You who carried someone on his back. Tiannv Muying's shoes were soaked, and it was still a little inconvenient for her to go down the mountain.

So after she stuffed the two fish she caught into her schoolbag, she happily jumped onto Mu You's back.

"Thank you, Yu-kun. Let's go!"

"Thank you, please don't say thank you. Could you please stop moving?"

Mu You muttered, he felt that he seemed to have made a wrong decision. It was not because his back was wet, nor because he felt tired. Tiannv Muying was about 150 cm tall and very light. She was even easier to carry than Qiong, just like a child.

But what really concerned Mu You was that when he was holding the other person, he could clearly feel that there was only a layer of cloth between him and the other person.

No, you really think of yourself as a child. You should also learn from Mashiro and like vacuum.

Moreover, the other party seemed to have too much energy all the time, and was not honest even on Mu You's back. The sudden increase in altitude brought a new experience to the other party, and he always looked around unconsciously.

Mu You felt helpless as he felt the vague touch on his back.

"It always feels very novel. Besides grandpa, this is the first time I've been carried on someone's back."

Mu You's heart paused, as if he was touched by someone's sudden words, and a trace of electricity flowed through his body.

"If you want to talk, please speak properly and stop blowing in my ears."

"Hehe," the goddess Mu Ying lay on Mu You's body, teasing the person under her vaguely. His ears turned red, as if he was shy.

"Yuu, do you like Okumi-san?"

"Why ask this question?"

"Tell me about it?"

“…I like it. It’s a very beautiful and peaceful place.”

There are no monsters and no strange intrusions. This place is like a paradise forgotten by the world. It makes people's hearts calm down involuntarily and will not be disturbed by worldly troubles.

"anything else?"

"...No one here knows me. I don't have to maintain those pitiful social connections anymore. I can also withdraw from those complicated relationships and relax."

Is that so? Tiannu Muying looked at the boy's profile. He had black hair and blue eyes. His very handsome face always gave people a gentle feeling. She didn't expect that he would have such troubles.

Is it because I am a Chinese?

"Yu-kun, can you tell me about your hometown?"

"..."

"Aha, sorry, it's okay if you don't want to say it, I didn't mean it."

"There's nothing to be embarrassed about," Mu You said with a smile, "It's just that I may not remember it clearly. I hope you don't mind."

"Oh, no, absolutely not!"

The goddess Mu Ying said this with a solemn oath.

"Well, then, where should we begin? Ah, let's start from the first time I met Senior Sister at the orphanage..."
