The Book of Maiden Contract

After three days, Lin Luo finally understood that the person who gave him bad luck during this trip to the underworld was not Yuyuko, but Yakumo Zi. For the past three days, he has been practiced to death almost every day, even if it is a hundred times harder than playing barrage games with the second lady, and because of the excessive use of black inflammation, he caused serious self-injury. Although he will not die, but after each "education" is over, he has to lie on the ground for half an hour before he can get up, and this half-hour of powerlessness is another kind of hell for him... "Woo meow, I can play meow again." The little girl jumped out of the wooden house happily. It only takes a quick glance to tell that this little girl is no ordinary human being, as she has cat ears and a cat tail.

She is Yakumo Blue's shikigami black cat, Orange, a two-tailed cat demon. Although she looks smart, she actually only has the wisdom of a human child. Because she can't stand alone, she was not given the Yakumo surname by Yakumo Zi.

"Go, go, don't come here!" Seeing Cheng, Lin Luo's heart skipped a beat, and he pretended to be ferocious, trying to drive her away, but Cheng obviously knew that he was in a powerless state, so he wasn't afraid at all, and instead showed a more excited expression on his face.

Bounced and ran to Lin Luo, as if to check whether he was still able to move, Cheng carefully stretched out his fingers and tapped Lin Luo's face a few times, and when he found that Lin Luo was motionless, he let out a joyful cry, and then took out a comb, a writing brush, and some weird gadgets from behind.

"..." Lin Luo couldn't help twitching the corner of his mouth, he knew that he would become Cheng's toy next.

"Woo meow." The girl cat demon first let out a happy cry, then stretched out her small hands to mess up Lin Luo's hair, then combed it with a comb bit by bit, then took out a few hair ties, and tied Lin Luo's hair into a bow shape.

"Woo...it doesn't look good. My sister will give you a better comb." After looking around for a while, she seemed to be dissatisfied. She took off the bow tie again, and then flicked her little hands, making Lin Luo's hair messy again. It was not until three times that she finally combed out a satisfactory hairstyle.

As for what kind of hairstyle it is, it may be called an explosive bow... Fortunately, Lin Luo couldn't see it, otherwise he would definitely go crazy.

After combing his hair, Cheng took out a brush and dipped some ink in it, and then happily drew various lines on Lin Luo's face... Lin Luo said that he was bullied by a cat.

Forget it, if you don't see it, it's the last time anyway... Lin Luo comforted himself secretly, then closed his eyes and let Cheng torment, while he himself immersed himself in the experience after the battle.

There were several battles with Yakumo Zi every day for these three days. Although he was abused without accident every time, it was not without gain. On the contrary, the battle with Yakumo Zi not only increased his strength a lot, but also gained a better understanding of the realm. The most important point...he can now use 1% of the rules of creation.

It has been less than five days since he came to Gensokyo. Although the mystery of this world is very high, it is absolutely unthinkable for him to unlock the power of rules in five days. Even with the help of the book of roots in the plane of the magic teacher, it took nearly a month... And such rapid progress can only be attributed to Yakumo Zi.

Lin Luo was a little unbelievable at first, but after thinking about it carefully, she took it for granted. After all, Gensokyo was originally created by Yakumo Zi. Her status in Gensokyo is almost equal to the status of the creator in the magical world. Moreover, Yakumo Zi possesses the power of realm, which is similar to his double rules. Now that he knows that he has the ability to create, of course there is a way to use his ability in the shortest possible time.

Of course, in addition to Yakumo Zi's external assistance, Lin Luo's own efforts are also factors that cannot be ignored.

After unraveling the power of the rules, Lin Luo naturally wants to hit the ground level. Now that his strength has been reached and the realm has been touched, the only thing that is lacking is his heart... But this thing is very abstract, and Lin Luo's concept of it is also vague.

Mountains are mountains, waters are waters, mountains are not mountains, waters are not waters, mountains are still mountains, waters are still waters... What am I seeing now?

Thinking of this, Lin Luo couldn't help opening his eyes, and looked at everything in front of him... There was a dark and endless gap, a vast land, and a cat demon playing with him. This is the scene in his eyes, so what is the scene in his heart?

"Woo meow, it's so fun, first draw a big painted face for you, and then draw a circle for you... Meow."

Orange, have fun.

Although Lin Luo wasn't very angry about Cheng's tossing around, he was still very depressed, but at this moment he seemed to have caught a clue...Cheng was just playing, yes, because it would make her happy, so she played, and she didn't care whether the person being played by her was happy or depressed, she just acted according to her own preferences.

Therefore, standing in the "position" of Orange, what you see is interesting and not interesting.

Why do gaps exist? Because that is the ability of the realm monster. The realm monster allows it to exist, and it exists, including this vast space. This is a manifestation of ability, at least in Lin Luo's sight.

Then think about it differently, what is the gap in Yakumo Zi's eyes?

... nothing.

A gap is a gap.

Just like water is essential in people's daily life, in the eyes of ants, a glass of water can destroy their homeland, which is a disaster; in the eyes of fish, water is their living space, but in the eyes of human beings, water is water.

"Haha, so that's the case." Suddenly, Lin Luo laughed, and at this moment he finally understood what the so-called surname was. It's not the state of mind of a strong person, nor is it where you can see where you stand. Your heart is, to put it bluntly, your true self.

Some people lose their minds, become mad, or think of becoming a savior because they have gained enormous power. Some people are ecstatic and unable to control themselves because they have obtained countless wealth. Some people choose to commit suicide because they have lost everything. These are all mental states.

The so-called surname of the earth is that no matter when, no matter when the sky falls and the earth falls, my original heart will always remain the same.

The strong me is me, and the weak me is also me.

"The ground level is me."

Under Orange's dumbfounded gaze, Lin Luo stood up, without a trace of post-battle fatigue on his body, from the peak of the spiritual rank to the ground rank, this moment was his real transformation.

"Woo meow!" Cheng was terrified, and ran away. Before, he could play for half an hour each time, but this time it took less than ten minutes. It was really unexpected.

"I can't run away this time." Lin Luo smiled, stretched out his hand, and a cloud of white mist rose, directly rolled up the cat demon girl who was about to run into the house, brought it to him, rubbed her ears, and threatened with a ferocious expression, "Now it's time to punish you, why don't you sprinkle some water."

"Woo meow, don't! Let go of my meow!" Cheng showed a scared expression and struggled hard, but with her meager strength, it was futile.

As Yakumolan's shikigami, once she gets wet with water, the shikigami's possession will be separated and she will become a monster cat. After becoming a monster cat, her body will become dull if she is sprinkled with water. In short, she is afraid of water.

Of course, Lin Luo wouldn't really sprinkle water on her, not to mention that she is Yakumo Zi Shigami, just helping him to understand the surname of the earth will not be bad for her just now, but she has been bullied so many times.

Seeing that she couldn't escape, Cheng was also angry, with a fierce look in her eyes, she opened her mouth fiercely and bit Lin Luo's hand, but instead of bleeding from the bite on the flesh, her own mouth hurt a little, and she let go of her mouth reflexively, showing a pitiful expression, and her whole body shrank immediately.

"Don't bully Cheng!" Yakumo Lan came out of the room at this time, her tone was a bit harsh, but when she saw Lin Luo, an inexplicable smile flashed in her eyes.

Lin Luo didn't know what she was laughing at, but she still untied the shackles on Orange, who immediately ran back quickly, hid behind Yakumo Lan, wagging her two tails, sticking out a small head to make a grimace at Lin Luo and sticking out her tongue to express her dissatisfaction.

The surname will not be changed... Lin Luo complained secretly, and stared back at her. Cheng seemed to be frightened, and immediately retracted her head, but it didn't take long for her to stick out her head cautiously, which made Lin Luo very speechless.

"It seems that you have already made a breakthrough." Yakumo Zi appeared in Lin Luo's field of vision silently, with a smile in her eyes, "These three days are quite useful, right?"

"...well." Although it was thanks to Yakumo Zi that he was able to break through to the ground floor, Lin Luo always felt that the other party was just playing around, "I don't think it's important to you to thank you, so I won't say it. Three days are up, and it's time for me to leave. You should have no objection?"

"Of course, I never thought of interfering with you. You can come and go whenever you want." Yakumo Zi said leisurely, "However, I think you'd better rectify a little bit before you leave." Her eyes fell on Lin Luo's face, and her smile grew stronger, while Yakumo Lan couldn't help it anymore, and burst out laughing.

"..." Lin Luo felt strange, at this moment a mirror appeared in front of him, looking instinctively, he saw himself in the mirror, and then he was embarrassed.

"I..." Looking at the monster in the mirror, Lin Luo finally understood why those two people laughed so happily, and he thought he should sprinkle some water on Cheng.
