Chapter 460: Ise Jingu

Mu Chen thought about it again and again, but after all, he didn't exchange it for the Xuanyuan Pill for the time being.

It's not that he's reluctant, but because he doesn't have enough points in the mall right now.

The 30 billion wealth he owned was basically fixed assets such as company shares and real estate, which had to be sold before they could be exchanged for system points, so he could only call Su Zhenbei first and ask him to help dispose of those assets as soon as possible.

As for that Xuanyuan Dan, although it is ridiculously expensive, as long as it can help him improve his strength, it will be a little more expensive, and it will be a big deal to rob a little more in the future.

Ahem, it's not a robbery, it should be said that it's a fundraiser!

He is the best male god and the embodiment of justice, how could he be such a tasteless thing as a robber!

Absolutely not!

Nothing was said all night.

The next morning, Mu Chen had just gotten up, and at a glance, he saw a slim and pretty figure standing on the balcony.

When I looked closely, I realized that it was Sakurako, who was standing there silently, looking into the distance in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Why did you wake up so early today?"

Mu Chen walked over leisurely and asked with a smile.

"Good morning, Mussan. Sakurako smiled softly at him, "There's something to think about, so I got up early, didn't I, Musan wake up?"

"Nope. Mu Chen shook his head with a smile and asked with concern, "What kind of problem are you encountering?" Do you want me to help you think about it?"

"No, it's just a little thing, and I should be able to figure it out quickly. By the way, I've already bought breakfast for you and Haruka-chan, so you can wash it and eat it. Sakurako smiled gently.

"Okay, thanks. ”

Mu Chen nodded.

After breakfast, the three of them immediately set off for Ise Jingu Shrine to look for the so-called priest.

The people of the island country believe in Shintoism, and Shinto believes that all things have spirits, that is, everything in the world has a god who controls it, so the island country has always had a saying that there are eight million gods.

A shrine is a place where the gods are enshrined and sacrificed, that is, where the gods live.

It can be said that the shrine is the oldest type of religious architecture in the island country, and it occupies a very important position in the hearts of the people of the island country, and they go to the shrine almost every year to pay their respects, and hope that their wishes will be fulfilled by making wishes to the gods and asking for lots, as well as physical safety and family happiness.

It is this religious belief that makes shrines and priests usually have a very high status and status in the island country, and are revered by thousands of people.

However, Ise Jingu is a special shrine with a rather exception, and it is also arguably the most important and mysterious shrine in the island country.

It is impossible to determine the exact time of its creation, but it has a history of at least 690 years, and the deity it enshrines is the highest level of the island god - Amaterasu Daigojin, and the god body is one of the three sacred artifacts that symbolize the imperial power, the Yaga Mirror.

One of the big differences between this shrine and other shrines is that people cannot go there to pray for their own wishes.

"If you can't pray for your personal wishes, then for whose wishes should you pray, can it only be because of the rise and fall of the nation and national events?" Mu Chen said curiously.

"Not exactly, but pretty much the same. Sakurako shook her head and nodded.

"Then where does the incense come from?" Mu Chen wondered.

"This is also one of the places where it feels very mysterious, even though there are few pilgrims on weekdays, it is deserted, but there is never a shortage of incense money, but every 20 years, Ise Jingu will be demolished and rebuilt on the original site according to the original situation, and no matter what happens for 700 years, it has never stopped. Sakurako said softly.

"Well, it will be rebuilt once in twenty years, they won't be full of money and have a lot of money, right?" Mu Chen said in surprise.

"No, since they've been doing it for 700 years, it must have a reason why they had to do it. Sakurako shook her head.

"Well, it seems that there is a bit of evil here. Mu Chen frowned and said with a straight face.

"Another strange place is that although Ise Jingu is dedicated to Amaterasu, the supreme deity of the island country, and it stipulates that people cannot pray because of their private wishes, in fact, since the day Ise Jingu was built, nearly 700 years ago, only one Meiji Emperor has ever visited, and the rest have never visited. ”

Sakurako said.

"Oh?"

Mu Chen was slightly surprised, touched his chin with one hand, and lowered his eyebrows and groaned, "Hearing you say this, I'm really getting more and more interested in this Ise Shrine now." ”

"And the priest who has no head and no end in sight! I want to see what is so special about this shrine and the so-called priest!"

Mu Chen's eyes flickered, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Musan, it's better to be careful in everything, don't be impulsive, Ise Jingu may be more mysterious and complicated than we imagined, and more dangerous. ”

Sakura, who was familiar with Mu Chen's temperament, saw that he looked eager to try, and hurriedly admonished.

"Don't worry, I won't mess around, just put a hundred hearts. Mu Chen smiled.

Sakurako's sparkling eyes looked at him quietly.

The Ise Jingu is dedicated to the supreme god of the island country, Amaterasu, so how can I rest assured.

Forget it, let's talk about it then.

Sakurako thought quietly.。。

An hour and a half later.

After walking 3,888 steps, the three of them finally climbed Mt. Rock and found the Ise Jingu Shrine.

Magnificent, solemn!

This is Mu Chen's first impression of Ise Jingu!

However, as Sakurako said, there are very few pilgrims here, and most of them are tourists who come for sightseeing.

"This Ise Jingu is really a bit weird, and it is actually supported by the Great Array of Guardians and Enchantments. ”

Mu Chen raised his head, the essence in his eyes flickered, and he clearly saw that there were a total of eight directions in the southeast, northwest, and northwest of the Ise Shrine, all of which had a steady stream of formation energy, and there was a fairly strong enchantment on the periphery of the Shrine to support it.

After calculation, Mu Chen was already roughly certain that this large array and enchantment belonged to a passive defensive formation, and he would not actively isolate anyone or objects in normal times.

However, once someone destroys the Ise Jingu, or the formation determines that the surrounding energy fluctuations exceed its trigger point value, the large array will immediately activate itself and thus defend, and the specific power remains to be verified.

"Phew!"

Poop!

Poop!

……

At this moment, in the corner of the bell tower of Ise Jingu Shrine, seven crisp and melodious bells suddenly rang out, constantly echoing and wandering in the air.

Then, a group of seventy-two people wearing black and white priesthood clothes and wearing heavy national makeup on their faces slowly walked out of the corridor on the left side of the shrine and walked in the direction where Mu Chen and Sakura were.

"It seems that the other party should have known in advance that we were coming. Mu Chen's eyes narrowed slightly.

"And they should have been prepared. Sakurako bowed her head slightly.

"It seems that we are going to have a fierce battle today!" Mu Chen said lightly, the corners of his mouth still smiling calmly.

Sakurako pursed her lips and didn't speak.

The group of clergy had already walked to Sakurako's place at this time, lined up on the left and right, and then bowed down to her with the highest standard of etiquette, and shouted in unison:

"I, the servants of Ise Jingu, have come to greet the Venerable Sakurako on the orders of the priests!"

Mu Chen and Sakura looked slightly stunned.

The tourists who came for sightseeing were suddenly shocked by this incomparably formal and grand scene, and looked at Sakura and Mu Chen in amazement.
