Chapter 1: The Sorrow of the Gods
Kyoto, Japan
Su Shang flew lightly to the roof of the shrine and looked up at the clear blue sky, the refreshing breeze blowing his hair, and yawning on his lazy face.
It is the beginning of April, which is a good time for spring, the sun's rays are very warm, and the people who shine are warm, which is very suitable for taking a nap.
Su Shang is the main deity of this shrine, but until a few days ago he was a real human.
Because his mother is Japanese, Su Shang came to Japan a few years ago, but some time ago because he was going to high school, he had to live at his grandmother's house in Kyoto.
Then, he discovers that his grandmother is actually the main god of the Fushimi Inari Shrine in Kyoto, the god of the soul of Uga. That is, the god Inari, who is in charge of harvest, agriculture and commerce.
At that time, Su Sheng was very surprised, surprised that it was so fresh and refined.
But this was only the beginning of his surprise, after that, his grandmother said, 'Grandma, I am retiring, and you will be the new generation of Uga's Imperial Soul God'
Because of such a sentence.
Su Shang, an ordinary quasi-high school student, became a god-sama in this way.
Strange cities, strange houses, strange people, strange and even more inexplicable identities... And, that divine power that doesn't know where it came from.
Su Shang, who has a lazy and casual personality, also has a very willful dream. You can live a leisurely life every day, and you don't worry about the troubles of life.
Although he himself admits that this is a very willful dream, when the dream comes true too quickly, it becomes very speechless.
Happy?
Of course happy.
Therefore, he happily accepted the reality that he had become a god that could not be changed.
But even if he is a god, there is still a troublesome thing pestering Su Ming.
That's going to school.
"It's so troublesome, it's already a god, why do you have to go to school." Lying on the roof of the shrine, looking at the sky lazily, his tone was very helpless.
After all, sometimes, the mentality of getting by without ambition is also very rare.
…
Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine is the main shrine of more than 30,000 Inari Shrines throughout Japan. It is also one of the oldest shrines in Kyoto City.
In addition, the torii gate of Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine is also known as 'Senbon torii'.
To put it bluntly, the torii gate is a building in front of the shrine that looks like a door.
Because the Japanese believe that birds are the embodiment of human souls, there are good souls and dirty souls, and birds cannot be allowed to approach the shrines, so about 200 meters in front of the main entrance of each shrine, a "kai" shaped torii was built.
There are generally two pillars with two beams on them, and some of the torii gates also have plaques with inscriptions. It is generally made of wood and painted with red lacquer.
Its existence is to distinguish the divine realm from the secular realm inhabited by humans, and it is a kind of enchantment, representing the entrance to the divine realm, and it can be regarded as a kind of 'door'-like existence.
The crimson torii gate of Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine stretches from the foot of Mt. Inari to the shrine at the top of the mountain, and there are tens of thousands of mountain roads for several kilometers, which is extremely spectacular.
The entire hillside is covered with countless red torii gates, one after the other forming an endless corridor. Walking in it, the peculiar red shimmer is imprinted on the bluestone slabs, adding a lot of mystery to the entire shrine.
And among them, the worship is the main god of the main position, the spirit of rice, and the soul god of Uga.
Uga has the meaning of grain and food, but in the Middle Ages, industry and commerce gradually developed in Japan, and the god of Uga, who was in charge of abundant production, began to be worshipped by industry and commerce.
However, because in Japan Uga's Imperial Soul God is also known as the fox god, all the demon foxes, fox fairies, etc. belong to his subordinates. Because of this, Fushimi Inari Shrine is flanked not by the usual shrine with a sculpture of a fox.
Su Shang, who was sleepy, wanted to take a nap in this comfortable atmosphere, but when she saw a little fox flying to the roof, she smiled helplessly and looked at the little fox.
The little fox is very small, but the size of two palms, and the small and delicate body and plush fur are like cute little dolls, especially the small bell on the neck adds a bit of cuteness.
"Uga-sama, you're ready for tomorrow's school." The little fox said very respectfully.
Regarding the title of Lord Yuga, although Su Sheng mentioned that he didn't want them to call him that, his divine envoys all refused, and they had no choice but to accept it.
"Tuyu, I really don't want to go to school." Su Shang sat up, looking at the people who came down to the shrine to ask for blessings and the busy witches, his eyes were lazy and helpless.
As a god, Su Sheng naturally has divine envoy servants, and there are quite a few of them, but among these divine envoys, there are only five powerful gods, and Tuyu is one of them. Although Tuyu looks like nothing more than a cute plush little fox who can only sell cuteness. But Su Shang had seen Tuyu's terrible appearance when he was angry.
The little fox who was called Tuyu blinked: "But this is what the first lord ordered." ”
"What a hassle," he said, lying down again.
I couldn't help but think of the three rules that my grandmother set for him before he left, and he had a headache.
You have to go to high school, and you have to graduate successfully.
It is the things of God that cannot be known to any human being, let alone use divine power in human posture.
Be God.
Among the three rules, the second rule Su Sheng doesn't care at all, he doesn't think that a normal human will think that he is a god, as for the use of divine power, it is even more ridiculous, he is too lazy to use divine power even in the posture of a god, let alone a human posture.
As for the third article, Su Sheng thought about it for a long time, and finally defined it as being added by her grandmother who really couldn't think of it.
And the first one, and the most difficult one, is the one for him.
Although he said that he had come to Kyoto to go to school, after becoming a god, he didn't have this mind, and wanted to live like this leisurely and not go to school.
However, this first article ruined his thoughts.
"Uga-sama, is school a scary place?" Tuyu asked innocently with a big wink.
"It's not so much scary as it's a troublesome place." As he spoke, he turned his head sideways to look at the innocent little Tuyu.
"Trouble? But I see that the children who go to school are very happy. ”
"Behind the happy smiling faces of the students are a series of troublesome things such as exams and homework. Speaking of which,Tuyu hasn't been out of the shrine much.。 ”
Tuyu nodded, and his expression became very serious in an instant, and he said, "Because I have been studying with my predecessors to become an excellent divine envoy worthy of Lord Uga, I have never gone out." ”
"It's really not easy to be a divine envoy, I'll take you to school tomorrow, ordinary people can't see you anyway." Su Sheng said very casually.
Although Su Shang has been a god for a few days, he has also noticed that these divine envoys of his own stay in the shrine on weekdays and rarely go out. Even Su Shang, who is very lazy and lazy to move, thinks these guys are a little pitiful.
Tuyu was stunned, and in the next moment, two blush gradually appeared on the little face and cracked the small mouth, which was very happy, and the amber eyes were filled with surprise.
"Really, really?"
"Of course you can, what's not to do with that." As he spoke, Su Sheng yawned again.
"Won't it disturb Uga-sama's study? I heard that studying in school is very important. Xiao Tuyu was worried, but looked at Su Sheng expectantly.
"It's just the first day, it should just be a school opening ceremony, nothing else." Su Sheng looked at Xiao Tuyu's cute appearance, reached out and touched her head, and said with a smile.
Tuyu blinked his eyes and said with a painful expression: "Fruit, sure enough, I still won't go, if you disturb Lord Uga, you won't be good." ”
But whether it is the pair of amber eyes or the expression on the face, it is clear that I really want to go to these four words.
"What a little fox who isn't honest at all. Follow me tomorrow, it's my command. With that, he turned sideways, apparently about to sleep: "But now I'm going to sleep." ”
"Yes." Tsuchigo immediately replied respectfully, and then jumped off the roof of the shrine with an excited face, and rushed towards the shrine.
"Huh?" Just as Tuyu was rushing away excitedly, Su Sheng suddenly opened his eyes: "By the way, can I let her go to school in my appearance..."
