Chapter 777: On How to Test (Blind) Evidence ()
Snow is serious. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
When Mori Xia saw Yukino's serious expression, Mori Xia had already realized this.
The shrine has been dedicated to the two-dimensional fox girl...... What kind of fuss is this!
But there is no doubt that Yukino sees Tsuma Kotama as an alternative to Toba Shrine.
“...... Wait a minute, why are you giving Xiaoyu ...... No, give Tamamo a new image?"
"In front of Tamamo where we had before, you have also seen it, brother, that ukiyo-e style of characters may have been popular in the Edo period, but the god lord grandfather said that young people don't like this style now, so they want to keep up with the times. Xue Nai said seriously, "Moreover, the god lord grandfather also said that in order to expand our influence, we are going to make a sculpture now." ”
Yukino said it greatly.
But what appeared in Mori Xia's mind at this moment was that at some point in the future, tens of thousands of moon chefs would come to Toba Shrine to make a pilgrimage to Kodama Damingjin.
...... It was too beautiful for me to look at.
"Oh, that's so interesting!" After hearing Yukino's words, Chika became interested.
This kind of thing is absolutely indispensable to join in the fun.
"Hey, is it okay to do this?!" Sen Xia couldn't calm down, "It's really no problem to just mess around like this, although the ukiyo-e style is very old, but this is also a tradition left by the immortals!"
"Big husband, cute big milk!" "Yukino waved his hand, "Those things were originally added by someone during the Taisho period, and before that, there was no enshrinement in Tamamo in Toba Shrine...... Well, it's not that there isn't, it's just that it's not so formal. ”
"Kukuku, isn't there some ulterior history in this? The story of being sealed between gods and demons is really interesting!"
- Lily, if you have something to say, if you want to hear the story, just ask, don't disagree with the second grade......
Senxia complained silently in his heart.
"That's right, although we have always enshrined the Tamamae Stone before, but the previous Lord Priest felt that it was too pitiful to enshrine Tamamo as a stone even though this was a shrine named after Emperor Toba? "What Yukino said,It doesn't seem like much to the average person.,But from the shrine itself,It's really a great suggestion.。
"That'...... Seems like it's really possible......"
Senxia suddenly felt that there really was no problem with this.
At this time, Senxia almost gave up treatment.
After hearing Yukino talk about the history of Toba Shrine, Mori Xia realized that this place was really so undisciplined.
From the point of view of the previous gods and goddesses who were so casual, it is also certain that the future gods will also be undisciplined.
Phew, my snow won't be so undisciplined!
Senxia shook his head.
"Brother doesn't agree?" Yukino tilted her head.
"Agreed, of course I agreed, and enshrined a life-sized figure or something, isn't that a very interesting thing!"
Suddenly Mori Xia was on fire.
If all the shrines in Japan were enshrined in such wonderful two-dimensional cute things, Mori Xia felt that the Japanese would probably be saved.
Healing can't save the Japanese, but Moe can.
"It's not a figure!" Yukino glared at Mori Xia, "It's the golden body in front of the great Tamamo!"
“...... If I'm not mistaken, Tamamo probably seduced Emperor Toba, and was killed by Lord Abe-Harumi, and the wreckage turned into a killing stone, right?"
Reina whispered Erika next to her.
The story of Tamama Qian can be said to be very familiar to the Japanese, and this kind of story is like a person from a large eastern country watching Houyi shoot the sun, or Chang'e running to the moon.
Reina's doubts, Mori Xia also heard it.
"Kukukuku, you're wrong, Reina-chan~" Mori Xia said with a smile.
"Huh?" Reina looked at Mori Xia in surprise, and she didn't know if she was surprised by Mori Xia's words, or because Sen Xia suddenly let out a middle two sick smile.
"Actually, you're all wrong. In front of the tamamo we worship, it is not actually a nine-tailed fox, but the god Amaterasu...... No, it's Amaterasu. "Senxia's expression and language are very similar to Lily.
But I don't know why, Senxia spoke in such a tone...... Why do people want to squash him so much?
Well, even after Lily saw Senxia's expression and then heard him speak, she wanted to beat Senxia flattened.
"Mori Natsu-kun, the nine-tailed fox and Amaterasu don't seem to be the same thing, right?" Nini and Mite are both foreigners, but even so, they do know something.
"It's different. The myths you know are actually evolved and artistically processed according to the earliest rumors and cultural compositions, but the earliest prototypes of the story are actually not like this. ”
Although everyone is familiar with myths, there are still many things that can be examined.
For example, Hou Yi and Chang'e's husband Hou Yi are actually the same as the two of them, and there are many changes in the story before Yuzao.
"There are folk rumors about Tamamo Mae, most of them say that Tamamo is a 'nine-tailed fox', but among those who study Japanese culture, some people know that in fact, the 'algae girl' incarnated by Tamamo was not the so-called nine-tailed fox at the earliest, but a jackal...... No, to be more precise, it is actually what the Buddhist scriptures call 'wild dry'. Senxia began to use his rich knowledge to crush the bewildered onlookers.
The so-called wild gan comes from the "Hundred Parables", that is, ancient India, or the ancient Tianzhu Sanghasna, which was later translated in the era of the Northern and Southern Dynasties of a certain eastern power. The 'wild gan' known in Japan is actually from the "All Sutras and Meanings" written by Shi Xuanying during the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, and this knowledge began to be popularized after Master Jianzhen traveled to Japan. The wild one, Sanskrit 'Sigara'. The shape is green and yellow, like a group of dogs, and the night crows, and the sound is like a wolf. The word "shoot dry" refers to a creature that resembles a fox, but is smaller than a fox, which can be said to be Dharma. ”
"So, what does the nine-tailed fox have to do with Yegan? Tamamo and Amaterasu have nothing to do with each other, right?" Qianjia tilted her head, she was very interested in what Mori Xia said, but Sen Xia didn't seem to get to the point at all, at least everyone couldn't understand it.
Even if the wild stem is related to the tamamo before, what is this for?
"Don't worry, listen to me. Sen Xia rubbed his itchy nose, and then continued, "You probably don't know that the so-called wild gan, in the Central Plains, used to refer to the existence of 'fox fairy', and after the meaning of the word and historical evolution, wild gan can also be used to refer to jackal. Legend has it that the mount of the White Morning Fox King Zhipu Sadujini Tian is a jackal, and there is no jackal in Japan, so the 'fox' is used instead. And Tu Ji Nitian himself is the White Morning Fox King, that is, the fox fairy. Therefore, the actual prototype of Tamamo is actually Tujini Heaven. ”
"Tugini Days...... Tugini Days...... Wait a minute, brother, isn't Tujini Tian Inari?!" Yukino was shocked.
Tujini day in Japan, it refers to the god of Inari, Mori Xia is so pulled, Tamamo has a relationship with Inari before?
"That's right, the 'fox' that the Japanese believe, or Nogan, is the messenger of the Tujini Heaven, and the Tujini Heaven has also incarnated as a 'fox', so Inari Myojin generally refers to the Tujini Heaven. In terms of evidence, the Buddha is a transliteration of Sanskrit, and the paraphrase is 'Empty Mother', which is the Heavenly Mother who was born in the Pure Land. And our words of Inari, retrospectively, should be the evolution of the 'Born Empty Walking Great Buddha Mother', and there is a saying of 'Three-Body Empty Walking'. Mori Xia explained, "And the god Inari itself is the 'Spirit of Rice', that is, the 'Soul of Uga'. ”
When it came to the knowledge of the Buddhist scriptures, everyone else was confused, but fortunately, Mori Xia turned his head and returned to Japanese mythology, and everyone finally followed Mori Xia's footsteps again.
But how could Senxia give up this nonsense...... At this time, he said: "The other part of the history of Tamamo is the 'nine-tailed fox', and the origin of the nine-tailed fox is divided into two parts, one is the legend of the nine-tailed fox in India, and the other is from the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", the nine-tailed fox itself is one of the ten sacred beasts, and earlier, it existed as a belief totem of primitive religion, and it itself belonged to the totem and guardian god of ancient times...... Hawkers, of course, the nine-tailed fox, we don't pursue it, and it's no problem to continue to talk about it, but it's off topic. ”
Sensha paused, then returned to the topic.
At this time, everyone looked at Sen Xia and wanted to hear Sen Xia continue.
Continuing back to the past, the prototype of Tamamo is explained in the "Tamamo no Kusako" in the Fukushima Prefectural Courtyard, and the Inari belief itself is also derived from the belief in the sun god, and the belief in the fox god and the belief in the sun god are actually the same, which means that the prototype of the Tamamo front is Inari, and this statement is well founded. And the original belief in the sun god is also related to the belief in the Great Day Nyorai, and after the fireworks of mythology in Japan, they changed their own myth according to the myth of the Great Day Nyorai. Amaterasu is the embodiment of the Great Day Nyorai, that is, the incarnation of foreign Buddhism that appeared in Japan to save the world, and the Kura Mother itself is also believed to be the god of the Buddha fruit that the Great Day Nyorai has reached through practice, that is, the reincarnation. If understood from this perspective, Inari can be seen as the royal spirit of Amaterasu, in other words, Tamamo himself is an incarnation of Amaterasu. Hawkers, but there are a lot of relevant information in Japan, so you can check it. ”
The saying that Oinchi Nyorai is Amaterasu has always existed in Japanese research.
"In addition, there is also a 'Daikoku Tennu' who is also regarded as a servant of the goddess of the Snow Mountains in Japan, and the 'Daikokuten' is also seen as the wrath of the Great Nippon Nyorai when he subdues demons. Senxia continued to add, "And Dongmi, on the Japanese side, also believes that the Vajra realm is related to the true language of the Great Ri Nyorai in the Tibetan realm, and the Vajra realm and the Tibetan realm are the two sides of the same coin...... Well, this in-depth explanation is too complicated, although I know a little bit about Buddhism, but it is mainly for information, and I can't remember much more information. ”
"To put it simply, Tamamo is the true ...... of the trinity of 'Great Sun Nyorai', 'Amaterasu' and 'Tujini Ten'?"
Qianjia understood.
"Yes, that's it. "Of course, in addition to the triune sun god in front of Tamamo, the other aspect is the study of Tamamo as a nine-tailed fox, and from this aspect, it is to trace the ancient times of ancestor worship, matriarchal society and the concept of 'animism' in a large eastern country." ”
This day road is actually more complicated, and it is not as shocking as the Trinity Sun God, so Senxia didn't say anything. Strictly speaking, if you study it from the side of the nine-tailed fox, you can actually have more interesting things.
"Staring ——!"
However, at this time, everyone was staring at Senxia, obviously wanting to hear Senxia finish the story.
"There are many of these, which can basically be divided into two aspects, one of which can be traced back to the 'Three Demons of Xuanyuan Tomb', and the second, as I just said, can be traced back to the totem worship of the Qingqiu tribe in ancient times, and the totem worship of the nine-tailed fox is related to the previous ancestor worship, matriarchal society and animism. If you trace back a little from the first point, you can also involve the tomb culture, because the fox is the god who guards the tombs of the hills, and a little deeper, its original form can be traced back to the dragon of the leyline, or the feng shui legend of the dragon vein, is the yin dragon corresponding to the yang dragon, and its own form is the doppelganger of the sun star located on the ground, although it makes sense to say Amaterasu in this regard, but Amaterasu did not guard the tomb of the Yellow Emperor, this aspect is actually not very related, although it is also the sun god, but this heavenly road, in fact, is more from the perspective of animism, although the personality is also very high, but if you continue to investigate, it is Pangu to open the world or something......”
Speaking of the three demons of Xuanyuan Tomb or something, people from a certain eastern country probably know a little bit about it, and then about feng shui and dragon veins or something, in fact, they can also be investigated, but more deeply, Sen Xia can't bear it, after all, this aspect is very troublesome, especially there are a lot of news and rumors about foxes in a certain eastern country, and there are different results from each aspect.
But Mori Xia doesn't plan to continue to pursue it, the legend of Tamamo that has been circulated in Japan itself is also a creation of a fusion of the legends of the three regions, and for him, as long as the evidence is so far, it is enough.
"I really don't know why, I suddenly think our shrine is really powerful......" Yukino suddenly let out a sigh of emotion.
Well, obviously, Senxia's cute sister has been said by Senxia to (suddenly) obey (you......
......
Suddenly found that Xiao Yuzhen was meowing to the Trinity Sun God, and the person on the other side could also catch up with Pangu......
After writing this chapter, I thought I could go and write fandom for the godslayer......
Because my knowledge is limited, the evidence to this step is my limit, the above information comes from my own research and reference materials, there is no copy and paste, there may be omissions, don't blame OVO.
It's really tiring to study the evidence......
