Chapter 24: The Mountain God Sacrifice (2)
At first, when Yuuki wanted to lead the way, Aino refused.
After all, how serious this kid's road idiocy is, even the dogs near Winter Village know it.
But they were soon relieved, for there were stone steps and iron cables all the way from here to the top of the mountain.
The people of Kamino Village also know that there is nothing to see here, and no matter how good the scenery is, it will be boring to watch it for a long time, so the only place that can develop a little tourism - the shrine on the top of the mountain - naturally has to do a good job in order to make a good impression on this group of children, so that they can come every year.
There is no fork in the stone steps, and Yuuki Yuichi will take people to stop and go along the way, and when they encounter beautiful scenery, they will also sit down and enjoy it for a while, and take pictures or something.
Ohno Zyko is a social influencer with her own Twitter account with more than 100,000 followers! Pretty awesome!
Yuuki Yuichi is the first time I've seen a living blogger, and while I'm impressed by her, I'm also curious about her updates on it.
Ohno didn't hide it from him, and swiped down the updates on it one by one.
Yuki Yu immediately understood after taking a look...... It's all good food, and it's all his cooking.
In addition to this, there is also a profile photo of his face when cooking: a white chef's suit, his eyes are focused and charming.
I have to say that this girl still has a hand in taking pictures.
He couldn't help but nod his head and asked with some curiosity, "How many photos of me have you taken?" ”
"How much?" Ohno Zygoko thought for a while, and said uncertainly: "Everyone likes to watch it...... When I'm in the store, about three or five a day? ”
He calculated slightly, if there were three or five sheets a day, it would be a lot by now......
"Send one to my mailbox when you get back."
Ohno asked him when he took a photo, and he allowed it.
In her words, everyone likes food and cooks who make food, and food + chef is the strongest combination.
When she gets back, she picks some good ones and sends them to Mikan, and when she can't see herself, she can look at those photos instead.
"Send a copy to the group." Hana next to her answered, and after finishing speaking, she added: "I want to check if there are any photos that reveal too much privacy." ”
"I see!" Ohno raised his hand in response.
Kaoru Miki, who was sitting next to her, held her cheeks with her small hands, and her clear eyes were smiling.
She has been paying attention to the zygote for a long time, and she has kept each of the photos on it well.
After a short break, they continued their climb.
The trees on the top of the mountain are thinning, and the field of vision is gradually broadening, and the mountains in the distance are hidden in the clouds and mist, which is very beautiful.
"Yo, Yuuki Brother, it's finally here!"
There was a cold sound on the top of the mountain, and Yuuki Yuichi, who hadn't climbed up yet, looked up.
I saw the village chief of Kamino Village, Nakamura Kiyoichi, bending over with his hands behind his back, looking at them with a smile.
"Good morning, Mr. Village Chief!" He stood there and shouted with his voice open.
This old man is in good health, when did he come up? The amount of speech is enough, and the eyes are good, this is at least thirty meters away, right?
If he were in his previous life, he would already be male and female ten meters away.
"Let's go, let's climb up in one go!" Ai Nai gasped slightly, this mountain climb turned out to be quite tiring.
The others didn't have an opinion, and continued to climb up in one go.
Ten minutes later, the group finally reached the top of the mountain.
At the top of the mountain is a large open flat field, as if the top of the entire mountain has been shaved off. Dotted Library
Directly in front of the stone steps is a vermilion torii gate, then a straight Shinto, and further on, there is a large shrine with several towering trees that can only be hugged by several people.
At this time, there are many people who are busy shuttling back and forth around the shrine.
And the old man who shouted just now was in front of the stone pier not far away, smiling and making tea, quite Yaxing.
Yuuki Yuichi's group was stunned for a moment.
I really didn't expect this shrine on Mt. Kamino to be so magnificent.
At the same time, I didn't expect that there would be so many people on the top of the mountain now.
"Brother Yuuki, this way, this way!" Kiyoichi Nakamura waved his hand.
Yuuki Yuichi walked over with someone, and Eko Sensei was tired and didn't want to talk, so she walked slowly behind the crowd.
Everyone wears the same sports uniform, and if you don't know her, you won't recognize her as a teacher at all.
Although this dress is a little ugly, it is sturdy and dirt-resistant, making it the best choice for hiking and mountaineering.
"Come on, please use it!" Nakamura Seiichi pointed to the poured tea bowl.
Yuuki Yuuki and Hana Aino thanked them together.
Nakamura Seiichi is still smiling, he is very impressed by this guy, yesterday's ramen tasted so wonderful that he will never forget it now.
Yuki Yuichi put down the bowl, thinking about what he had just said, and wondered, "Do you know that we are coming?" ”
"Yes, a teacher has notified you in advance to prevent any accidents on the road." Nakamura said with a smile on his face, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were particularly obvious.
"No wonder!" Yuuki Yu nodded, then looked inside the shrine, and said suspiciously, "Excuse me, what are you doing?" ”
Nakamura Kiyoichi looked back: "Yes, tonight happens to be the mountain god festival, and everyone is preparing for the festival." ”
Ai Nai was a little incredulous: "Festivals? Carried out at such a high place? Or at night? Too dangerous, isn't it? ”
Seiichi Nakamura sighed with a smile on his face: "Many years ago, it was true that there were often incidents of falling to death, but after these years, we have installed a cable car and it has become safe to descend the mountain, and now there have been no accidents for many years." ”
"Cable car?" A group of people looked in the direction of his finger.
At the back of the side of the mountain temple, there are two large pavilion-like buildings......
Love is no longer speaking.
Yuki Yuichi scratched his head, the construction of this mountaintop shrine is definitely very difficult, and it is estimated that Kanno Village's income has been spent on it for several years.
This is probably faith!
The hearts of devout and faithful people are fearless and indomitable.
There was more respect in his tone: "We are here to pray for blessings." ”
"Pray for a blessing? What kind of blessing is praying? Old man Nakamura Kiyoichi asked with concern.
Yuuki Yuichi said softly, "I have a younger sister who is sick, so I want to come and pray for the blessing of the gods, so that she can get better as soon as possible." ”
"Exorcise the disease?" Nakamura Kiyoshi nodded, squinted again, and said, "If this is the case, but you have to use some special prayer methods." ”
"Special?" Everyone was stunned, with an inquiring look in their eyes.
Nakamura Seiichi pointed to the shrine and said with a smile: "Let's go and bow down first, and say hello to the gods...... As for the special method of praying, if he hadn't deceived the old man, it would not be difficult for him. ”
"Really?" Yuuki Yu looked thoughtful.
He and the old man had only talked about two things, one was cooking and the other was musical instruments...... It seems that this special method of blessing has something to do with musical instruments!
At this thought, he nodded, went to the pool next to him to clean his hands, and then walked with Hana Miki Kaoru and the others, through the torii gate, to the front of the worship shop, each put in the race money, clapped their hands together, put their hands together, and prayed silently.
