Inari wants to live in peace

You can make a compromise on your request to beg for rain, so go down the path to the entrance of the village at the foot to achieve it.

So I called out to the four men who had brought the offering.

"The village chief alone is enough to guide the village.Everyone else can go back to work. "

But still, the four of us don't seem to want to leave, and we would love to be with God Inari!And it looks exciting.

Well, if there's anything I can do, I'll be counting on you then.

I repeat myself with a slight feeling of discouragement.

So they finally gave up, and the four went to their respective workplaces in return.

(Speaking of what I did, I just hunted a big boar, slit its neck and took out its guts.)

It's just a knife and a hand grip, that's for sure surprising.

But thinking calmly, it was completely different from the image of Inari God that I imagined.

This is not farming, but a god of battle.

In other words, I didn't think he had done enough to be respected by the locals.

Or was Inari good at fighting?Hmm, I don't know anything about God or Buddha or history.)

I am not a former woman, but a very ordinary first-year high school student.

The stronger the characteristic, the wider and shallower the light geek.However, it was very doubtful whether it would make a winner in the Sengoku era.

So I almost didn't understand the people's beliefs or the characteristics of God.

However, I had information that the medieval era was witch hunting through entertainment works, so I knew that no matter how desperately I scratched my fox daughter, it would be difficult to get out of despair.

(Told the customer that he would never escape and be exterminated as a monster.Until the end of my life, I pretended to be Inari and lived in peace)

From its obscure knowledge of history, Sengoku was followed by Edo, and the era of peace lasted for about 300 years.

Therefore, if you survive until then, there is a feeling of escape, and if the position of Inari God is the tablet stone, it is still Yoshi.

As I was thinking deeply and quite shallowly, the village chief, who separated from the four at the entrance to the road, spoke to me with his face facing away.

"Lord Inari, where will you go to see the village?"

When asked by the village chief, I return to reality, analyze the current situation in a hurry, and come up with a simple answer.

"I will go to the water field most used by the villagers."

Well, I'll show you around.

As he walked out at the head, I immediately followed him.

The pace is small, but the fox's daughter's physical abilities are insignificant, and she seems to be able to keep up with them without being pulled away by chocolate walks.

The villagers greeted me on the way, so I smiled and said good morning.

After properly observing the village or walking while greeting the villagers, he eventually arrived in front of the river.

Apparently it is flowing from the mountain where I live, and it is clear and can be seen to the bottom, so I easily realized that it is at the deepest point to my knee.

The village chief starts explaining a little nervously as he stops and looks at the river.

"This is the water field used by many villagers.

Usually it's wider and deeper, but it's narrower because it hasn't rained recently. "

I had to observe the river and the riverbank to find out how much the original was, but even I, an amateur, somehow understood the decrease.

When I looked around, I saw some villagers pumping water from the river in one hand into a bucket.

"What are the river waters used for?"

"It's also needed to grow drinking water, food, and rice and cereals.

And then you drop shit in the downstream shop, and it's a lot of stuff. "

Then the village chief explained everything he could think of.

I was so convinced that the river water supported the villagers' lives that it had to be done.

By the way, a sidekick is a toilet.

I knew the meaning of words somehow, but I started to see and hear them.But isn't it usually fat accumulation?Only ask questions for the time being.

"Digging holes is hard work.

If so, it would be easier to flush it into a nearby river all year round. "

In other words, I nod as small as I can as if it were a natural washroom.

Podun toilets are usually dug in areas far away from the river, but in villages and towns along the river, as in our case, they often flow as-is.

When I asked him if he would scatter manure, he told me that he should not defile the fields for religious reasons.

(Can the river be filthy?I'm worried about the water pollution downstream.)

Even if I think about this here and now, I don't think I can come up with a good idea because of my bad head.

And the problem that needs to be solved is water shortage, not manure.

So I put it on the shelf for a while, and I sorted out my own thoughts.

Looking at the scene and listening to the village chief's explanation, the river's water level has been decreasing recently due to the continuous sunshine.

For the villagers, a stable water supply is a matter of life and death, and it is natural that anxiety will spread in the Sengoku era when we don't even know the weather tomorrow.

I put a small hand to my mouth and continued my thoughts while asking the village chief again.

"So, where is the water field other than the river?"

"No, there is no water field other than the river"

In other words, there is no water other than the river, so if it dies, it will be a huge blow.With that in mind, I observe the mayor's face magically.

"... a joke?"

"What? Um, actually?"

I gave an unexpectedly stupid reply, but I calmly analyze his answer.

The current situation depended on the river flowing from the mountain, and it certainly brought enough water to the village at the foot.So I thought I didn't need another water field.

Recently, however, the sun has continued to shine and the water has decreased.The same thing would have happened in the past because it was unnatural just this time.

Then why did you bring me here at this time, because I am the Inari God (False).

(Sure, it's God's favor in times of trouble.)

I can't help it because I call myself Inari God and have the villagers take care of me, but it is not enough for me to pretend to be indifferent.

But I can't say I can't keep playing God's role, so I have to show some kind of compromise.

In the village at the foot, to break the current situation of only river water, think twice about the missing head.

(Hmm, if you come to my house, spring water will come out, and it must be a village rich in water originally)

I wondered so much, I called him again to ask him a question.

"Don't you dig wells?"

"Our village is short of manpower and money to dig wells."

At the foot of the village, I paid my annual bonus and the residents told me it was the best way to survive the winter without eating.

(But it won't last forever.If the river water field dies, it will be over.

Then drink the raw water and it will be hard if you get hungry)

In the Sengoku era, where everything is missing, it seems that boiling and sterilizing water before drinking is quite expensive in poor rural areas.

It is certain that you are oppressing the lives of the residents by offering yourself a gift, and if you don't show me anything useful here, you will be frustrated by the torment of your conscience and become mentally ill.

(When it comes to filtration, I remember putting in charcoal.)

I think it's not like this with my hand around my mouth, but it's definitely important when it comes to filtration, but I feel that something is derailing.

I quickly switched my mind to solving the water shortage, leaving my missing head empty.

I am desperate because it depends on whether I can live in peace or not.

Still, after all, I didn't come up with a good idea.Therefore, the brain muscle rubbing at the end of the lost, without hesitation, dignifies the mouth.

"Okay, I'll dig a well."

What!?

I can see that not only the village chief, but also other residents who were listening nearby were surprised at the same time.

No, Inari God?

Me and the wolves, to be exact.

The wolves looked back at me as they turned their gaze toward Chilari and his family, Wanko.

I realize that my family is looking up with crushed eyes and wondering if it's serious, but you completely ignore it.

Anyway, I decided to trust them and entrust them with the well digging.
