Heian Kyoto in Toei has a very familiar nickname - Luoyang. Many of the place names here have the words "Luozhong" and "Luowai" in them. Li Shaoyang saw a famous painting depicting Heian Kyoto in the Edo period in a booklet, and the name was "Luoyang Screen Map". In the Toei language, going to Tokyo is called "Kamikyo", but going to Heian Kyoto is called "Joraku".

This made Li Shaoyang very curious, wasn't the peaceful capital built 1,400 years ago modeled after the Chang'an City of the Tang Dynasty, and how could it be related to the eastern capital Luoyang. This is not a difficult question to solve, but Okita has a unique understanding of the cultures of both countries.

Tian Xingli said that in ancient China, the multi-capital system was usually practiced, and it was common to have several capitals at the same time. In such a prosperous era of the Han and Tang dynasties, the two-capital system was implemented, which was Chang'an in Xijing and Luoyang in Tokyo. Luoyang, also known as the eastern capital of the Tang Dynasty, is the hub of the intersection of the north-south Grand Canal, and its prosperity and importance are second only to Chang'an City.

Therefore, the Heianjing built by Emperor Kanmu of Japan in 794 is to imitate the two-capital system of the Chinese Kingdom, this city is separated by a north-south Suzaku Street in half, the west side is called Youjing Chang'an, and the east side is Zuojing Luoyang. Originally, one city and two capitals were also regarded as imitations of home, but unfortunately, after the Heian period, due to the water system of Heian Kyoto Ukyo, the Katsura River often flooded, resulting in difficulties in living, so Ukyo was gradually abandoned, and the development of the whole city was inclined to Zuojing Luoyang, and gradually, the habit of Heian's Kyoto called Luoyang appeared.

Li Shaoyang listened to Tian Xingli's explanation, took his beloved daughter to watch the quaint scenery of Ping'an Kyoto, and came to Chang'an, the Tang Dynasty thousands of years ago, in a trance, and couldn't help but feel good. They soon came to the northwest of a bridge in Joraku District, Heian Kyoto, surrounded by fertile fields, and according to the location of the heavenly place, the stone shoe where the south lord Suzaku deity resides is the Rokudo Shrine. One of the five major Shinto shrines in Heiankyo.

Li Shaoyang got out of the car at the gate on the periphery of the shrine and walked forward with empty photos. This piece of land belongs to the Liudao family. Shrine families such as the Rokudo family, which have been passed down from generation to generation, can be called large landowners, and this area has not been developed and will not be developed, but a lot of the land has been transformed in a farm-like manner, and many people in the vicinity have cultivated the land, all of which are descendants of the servants of the Rokudo family and descendants of the believers of the shrine.

These people do not need to pay money to the Rokudo family to cultivate the land, but they consciously give food to the Rokudo family every year to worship the shrine, which has a relationship of faith and inheritance. Li Shaoyang had studied the shrine families of Dongying and found that the income of these families had nothing to do with land and commerce, but with believers and servants. For example, behind the Rokudo Shrine, there are billions of yen in donation income every year...... These donations come from Tokyo's top political tycoons, the super-rich, and even some community donations. These donations are not tax-free. Those political bigwigs and super-rich people are either believers in the Rokudo Shrine or after the servants of the ancient Rokudo family.

In addition to this, two temples are managed under the Rokudo Shrine. In this way, the annual revenue reached 1.5 billion yen. Definitely a rich family. Li Shaoyang came to the outside of the Zhaimen with the empty photo, and saw two white stone pillars erected, with smooth white jade arch stones on them, forming a simple rectangle, which was extremely simple and beautiful.

Next to this square door, there is a stone tablet, one meter high and three whole, neatly written "Liudao Shrine" in pure Chinese characters, the original meaning of Chinese characters in the Dongying language system or has undergone changes, but these four characters are no different from the Chinese language of China, which is enough to see the deep influence of Chinese culture on Dongying.

Li Shaoyang was immediately attracted by the words on the stone tablet at the entrance, these words were left over from the Heian period, when katakana had not yet been invented, and Dongying only had language but no writing, and all the words were in Chinese, so Li Shaoyang could easily understand and read these inscriptions.

The inscription says the origin of the Six Dao Shrine and the story of the ancestors, which says that the ancestor of the Six Dao family, Qing Ming Gong, went to the Tang Dynasty three times to practice Yin and Yang, and finally returned with a divine sword to establish the Six Dao Shrine to enshrine this divine sword from the Tang Dynasty!

Li Shaoyang suddenly realized in his heart that the so-called demon knife was brought back from the Tang Dynasty by Liudao Qingming, and that Liudao Qingming also built a shrine for this purpose to worship the divine sword, which has been passed down to this generation of descendants, and it is already one of the five major shrines in Heian Kyoto.

At this time, there was a commotion in the stone gate, and Li Shaoyang stepped in with the empty photo, and saw a group of black-clothed people blocking the passage inside the stone gate, and they were confronting several guards in the shrine.

It seems that the guards guarding the shrine are blocking these black-clad people from passing through the "torii"! The torii gate is a red vermilion gate, and in Toei Shrine, this kind of gate represents the dividing line between the human world and the gods, so this gate is important to the shrine, more important than the stone gate outside.

Li Shaoyang could see at a glance that those black-clothed people were the people of the "Nanxing Yuji Shrine", and at this time, they were arrogant, and they had already squeezed several guards of the Six Shrines in front of the torii gate.

"Hey! Let go of your hands! Li Shaoyang shouted slightly, this time using a faint spiritual power, like a morning bell and a dusk drum, beating in everyone's hearts. Several black-clothed people at Nanxing Shrine felt panicked, and they couldn't help but take a few steps back.

And the leader of the guards guarding the Six Dao Shrines, an old man who was sixty years old, was wide-eyed, and it took a long time before he exclaimed: "Yes, it's Young Master Aji who is back!" ”

The guardian of the shrine is a kind of position, and the shrine maiden, musician, technician, warden and other positions, are all inherited positions, this old man is called Mitsui Takayuki, is an old man who grew up watching Rokdo Temple, when he was a child, Rokdo Temple often called him Takayuki's father.

Li Shaoyang is now the appearance of the Liudao Temple, and he knows the memory of the Liudao Temple even better, so he lazily shouted to the old man: "It's me, Daddy Longzhi!" ”

Father Takayuki suddenly showed a strange look, a little happy and a little worried, standing there awkwardly, but did not immediately recognize each other. This complex emotion was clearly seen by Li Shaoyang, of course he understood the reason, no matter in which aspect, Liudao Temple could not be regarded as a good child, but a child who brought bad luck to the family. Now when the Six Paths Shrine is facing difficulties, this loser suddenly "came out of prison" and came back, wouldn't it be more chaotic!

But after all, he was a person who grew up watching the Liudao Temple, Takayuki Mitsui only hesitated for a moment, then ran over happily, hugged Li Shaoyang and wiped his tears: "Young Master Aji, you have suffered!" ”

Li Shaoyang patted him gently: "Father Longzhi, you are still the guardian of the shrine, why are you so sentimental...... Well, what's going on with these people in front of you, are you here to make trouble? ”

Father Takashi wiped his tears again, and said in a low voice: "Young Master Asi, you take the guests in first, there is still me here, the guys from the Nanxing Shrine, saying that there are monsters in our shrine, and they bring people to catch monsters every day, and this has been making trouble for several days." ”

Li Shaoyang is not a Liudao Temple, so he doesn't have any feelings for this Longzhi father, but seeing his eyes so concerned, he couldn't help but feel a little warm in his heart, he changed his attention and turned around and walked towards the group of people in black clothes wrapped around their waists.

Nanxing Shrine enshrines the god of Yuji, to put it bluntly, it is the god of foxes, but unlike the demon fox sealed by Li Shaoyang's demon knife, Yuji is a fox fairy in the legend of Dongying, a demon and a fairy, and the difference is big. Li Shaoyang saw that these strong men of the Nanxing Shrine were all with a sense of evil in their gestures, and then looked at the various tattoos on their arms, and couldn't help but suddenly realize that these were definitely not the priests of the shrine, but probably the members of the community employed by the Nanxing Shrine or the underworld thugs among the believers.

Li Shaoyang clasped his hands, this was the posture of the ancient warriors before the battle, but he said in a deep voice: "This is a shrine, don't be so presumptuous, please withdraw from the stone gate, otherwise you will be welcome." ”

Hearing this young man say this, the guards of the Nanxing Shrine all laughed, and the leader was a middle-aged bald man with a fan, but said: "Isn't this the eldest young master of the Liudao Temple, the guy who played with women in the shrine at the beginning, I heard that he was locked up in the prison of the military base for human experiments, but I didn't expect the little mouse to escape." ”

This middle-aged bald man knows more about the Liudao Shrine when he hears it, and even knows the reason for the accident in the Liudao Temple, Li Shaoyang whispered, the demon knife in his hand flashed suddenly, and then returned to the sheath. The middle-aged bald man was still stretching his arm and shaking the fan, but he heard a soft click, and the fan was split in two and was cut off.

The middle-aged bald man was stunned, and suddenly sneered, and his fat pants also fell off, revealing the crotch cloth inside. It turned out that Li Shaoyang's knife just now first cut off his fan, and then cut off his belt.

The middle-aged bald man suddenly screamed, and hurriedly reached out to grab his pants, but was kicked in the ass by Li Shaoyang, how powerful his strength was, and directly kicked this guy ten meters away, kicking from the Torii Gate to the outside of the stone gate.

The black-clothed people in the rear were in an uproar, but one of the strongest men had bright eyes and shouted: "Baga, give me a retreat." ”

As soon as the strong man spoke, everyone quieted down, and Li Shaoyang glanced at him: "It turns out that you are their leader!" ”

The strong man is at least 190 tall, and after standing up straight, he has a fierce momentum, which makes Li Shaoyang immediately think of the swordsman of the Soul Conjuring Society, Yasha Maru! This person's momentum is from the same vein as Yakshamaru, but it is far worse than Yakshamaru's cultivation. He was very interested in Li Shaoyang's knife just now: "Your knife technique is very fast!" ”

Li Shaoyang glanced at him again: "What, you also know knife techniques?" ”

The strong man's face was solemn, and he stretched out his hand slightly, and the black-clothed people standing behind him took out a katana sword that was at least one and a half meters long. The strong man grabbed the knife very seriously and put it on his forehead and bowed, and then said in a deep voice: "In the lower Qianye Maoxiong, Beichen has a knife to pass on, this knife is called "Wine Swallowing Boy One Size Fits All", please advise!" ”
