Chapter 1121 The survivors
"Let's do some divination first." Robert said this and took out his small stone. If the other party was here, then they should be able to find him soon.
The small rocks did not swing much. It seemed that the other party was not far away from here. Following these cute little rocks, the wizards quickly found a camp in a place with lush foliage.
It was a house with walls. Although it looked a little dilapidated, there was no doubt that it was a habitable house.
"There are actually houses here?" Miss Yazi opened her eyes wide and looked in disbelief.
Since the decline of the Nanase family, no one has been here again. After all, it was a large-scale disaster that even Yuru Village could not withstand. Of course, the Nanase people who escaped felt that the house on the mountain was hopeless, and they I gave up the idea of repairing it.
Besides, even if they want to build a house, they don't have any extra funds. Wouldn't it be nice to just find a place to farm in Naruto City?
"Could it be those people who didn't escape the mudslide?" This made Ms. Yazi couldn't help but think about it. If there were indeed people who didn't escape at that time and were lucky to survive, even if the land deed of the house is still in the In the hands of the descendants of the Nanase family, don’t these remaining people have the surname Nanase?
For a time, Miss Yazi, who had inappropriate thoughts about Professor Lockhart, completely lost her previous attitude of being obsessed with sperm, and instead began to be wary of the people in the house.
Just when everyone was wondering whether they should knock on the door, the camp door was pushed open, and a pair of pale-skinned twin girls met everyone's eyes.
"...A new guest has arrived." A girl said expressionlessly.
"A guest from Xiliu Village?" The expression on the other girl's face was much richer, and she looked at everyone curiously.
This left many wizards wondering how to answer the call.
At this moment, the expressionless girl looked at Miss Yaozi and said, "You look familiar."
Another girl jumped up to Miss Yazi, circled around her, and then said in surprise, "Could it be that you are..."
Miss Yazi looked at the girl in surprise. Did she recognize her identity? But when he left, he seemed to be still a little baby, right? Can you see this?
"Are you looking for incense at the foot of the mountain?" the girl asked seriously, and it was impossible to tell whether she said that on purpose.
Ms. Yazi:......
She wants to hit someone!
"Are you asking for incense?" Yuko approached and asked curiously, "I heard that this is the ruins of Nanase Shrine. Are the sacrificial activities from decades ago still being carried out here?"
The expressionless girl nodded and explained, "Sacrificial activities were often held here to pray for the people at the foot of the mountain."
Another girl said with a smile, "It's just that this place is deserted now. If you want to visit, I recommend the shrine at the foot of the mountain."
"So...those who have not left the Nanase family are now in this house?" Robert looked at the somewhat damaged house and doubted its sturdiness.
"As for the Nanase family, there should be only two of us left now. No one has lived here in the past few years." The lively girl said with a smile, "If it weren't for Professor Ishii's request, we might not come back. here."
The expressionless girl nodded and agreed, "Life here is not very convenient."
Under the narration of two girls with very different personalities, the wizards finally understood what was going on with the twins.
After the mudslide, all the people in the Nanase family who were able to escape left, leaving only some people who didn't have time to leave.
They had no choice but to crawl into the cellar under the main house and barely escaped.
But this mudslide was not a natural disaster, but caused by magical creatures. Naturally, it would not stop easily. In the darkness, the Nanase family didn't know how long it had passed before they finally crawled out of the cellar.
Some people choose to leave the mountains and live down there, while others stay, renovate their houses, and barely make ends meet. However, life in the mountains is not a wonderful experience. Without electrical appliances, these people who stay are almost Return to the primitive tribe.
More importantly, they can grow their own vegetables and hunt to satisfy their food and clothing needs, but clothes are always consumables. No matter how precious the fabric is, it will fade and rot under the erosion of time.
As for animal skins, if they can really hunt wolves or bears, the Nanase family should be a hunting family instead of a miko family.
More importantly, even if they were from a family of witches and had the means to prepare wound medicine, they would not be able to make up for the shortage of medicines.
Decades have passed, and when the older generation of the Nanase family has passed away, these two little girls born after the disaster mustered up the courage, relied on luck and wilderness survival experience, and left the older generation's advice behind. I went down the mountain to try my luck.
They are really lucky.
Some people want to expand their family wealth when they have spare money. What's more, hasn't a certain pharmaceutical company already set an example?
Not long after the construction of Yuliu Village began, the two girls who came down from the mountain attracted attention.
It happened that the child of the leader of the engineering team was born at that time, and the leader who wanted to do some good for his children kindly sent the two of them to Naruto City and provided them with some help.
Find a part-time job for them.
The twins worked and studied hard at the same time, and somehow became Mr. Ishii's assistant. Their situation was actually better than that of some residents who escaped from Yuru Village.
This time, it was because the professor had a whim and wanted to do some research on Xiliu Village, a sacred place for confession decades ago, and add some mystery to the place. In short, it was to advertise.
And when he asked his two assistants to prepare items for going into the mountain, he unexpectedly learned that these two people were survivors of the Nanase Shrine.
"The grass is growing here again." The expressive girl is her younger sister, named Mei Xi. She seems to be recalling things from her childhood and said with some emotion, "When I lived here before, I had to weed every year and go out. When traveling, you should carry a sickle and a whetstone with you. Ah, the stones are really heavy..."
What the complaining little girl didn't see was that Miss Yazi's face became increasingly ugly.
These twins were undoubtedly members of the Nanase family. Miss Yako could only watch helplessly as most of her inheritance was divided. She couldn't do anything like letting her blood relatives have accidents just for money.
What really dissatisfied her was what the remaining bastards were thinking! Since life is so difficult, why not go down the mountain and start again!
