Chapter Forty-Seven: The shrine and temple that lies down the gun, with a confused face
Quiescence.
There was a dead silence in the audience.
Everyone was dumbfounded, shock written all over their faces.
With so much evidence, this is no longer a confirmation, but a real hammer.
"The above is an overview of the preliminary investigation of the Yunhu incident, and the specific and detailed investigation content is in the document just distributed to you."
Hear the words.
Those present hurriedly picked up the documents and materials that Minister Saito handed out to everyone when he spoke.
When I opened it, I saw that the document was more detailed than what Minister Saito had said, and there were inferences about the style of the old castle, conclusions that matched the architecture of the Heian period, and DNA reports.
For a while, the conference hall was constantly talking, talking to each other, and their faces were shocked, solemn, or worried.
Not much.
A cabinet member stood up, his eyes twinkling.
"Since monsters exist and are powerful, how did ancient humans deal with monsters, do they also exist as onmyojis, monks, and even gods?"
Japan is a country with a long history, not only with a yokai culture, but also with a strong culture of gods and religions, and there are many shrines and temples.
In Japan, almost everywhere you go, you will inevitably find shrines and temples nearby.
According to statistics, there are about 85,000 shrines in Japan, and this is not counting the temples, so you can imagine how deep the gods and religious culture of Japan are.
In Japan, whenever you mention youkai, you inevitably involve gods and onmyoji, which are the cultural content of shrines and temples.
"Ahem."
Nodding slightly, Director Takahashi coughed lightly, attracting everyone.
"That's what I'm going to talk about and discuss with you.
Since yokai are real, and it is possible that they have intersected with our world in ancient times, and now that Sakurada gumi has accidentally entered the yokai world, it cannot be ruled out that the yokai world will intersect with our world again.
Nowadays we know very little about yokai, and we can only learn about them through documents left over from ancient history.
Through the analysis of the picture in the cloud lake scene, the destructive power caused by monsters will not be worse than that of modern weapons, and even the destructive power of some monsters is still above that of modern weapons.
For the sake of the safety of the people and the future of Japan, I propose the establishment of a special department dedicated to the study of yokai and the study of ancient culture.
Shrines and temples are also the focus of investigation. ”
Slightly groaned.
Director Takahashi said in a deep voice.
"To be honest, a long time ago, like other countries, Japan has studied and investigated its own culture, and we are investigating shrines and temples to see if there can be any unexpected discoveries.
As a result, nothing was investigated, it was just a simple cultural transmission.
However, judging from the current yokai matter, I personally seriously suspect that the shrine and temple must be hiding a secret from us.
I suspect that shrines and temples have the kind of Onmyoji magic and monk Buddhism that can compete with youkai recorded in ancient books. ”
His judgment and remarks were supported by many high-ranking officials present.
"Yes, I feel that way, too."
That's right, there must be something hidden in the shrines and temples, and they are really too outside, they are all for the country, so why don't they contribute. ”
"That is to say, in vain, we also proposed to vigorously promote the culture of shrines and temples, but they did not say anything about it."
"No! This time, be sure to ask them about the shrines and temples, especially the big ones such as Sensoji Temple, Atsuta Jingu, and Meiji Jingu. ”
At this time.
The previous Cabinet member said:
"Speaking of shrines and temples, they have begun to decline over the years, and with the change of the times and the development of science and technology, more and more people don't believe in these anymore!!"
Seems to think of something.
With a thud, the cabinet member straightened up sharply, his eyes shocked.
"You say, the matter of Yunhu, that is, the opening of the monster passage, can't it be a ghost caused by a shrine or temple."
In less than a second, these top Japanese bigwigs present looked at each other.
Well?
What do you mean?
Don't......
"You think, in recent years, the shrines and temples have been decadent, especially this year, they are even more decadent, and then under this decadent trend, the cloud lake incident came out."
As the words of the cabinet members came out.
The next moment.
Everyone changes color.
"This ......"
"Oh my God, don't say it's possible!"
"Shhh It's not impossible. ”
Shrines and temples have begun to decline in recent years, especially this year, and as soon as they intensified, the cloud lake appeared, and the two were an unexpected coincidence.
The most important thing is that shrines and temples can best be related to monsters, and the monster world was suddenly disconnected from this world, and now there is an intersection, it can be judged that the monster passage must have been closed before, maybe it was the onmyoji and the monks.
For the sake of the world and the people, the ancient onmyoji and monks sealed the monster passage.
It's just that now that shrines and temples are in decline, in order for the people to continue their faith, it is really possible that the shrines and temples will open the monster passage in order to continue the incense.
Once a yokai is born, people will think of shrines and temples again, and they will visit again, seek refuge, and renew their beliefs, so that the shrines and temples will come to life again.
Conspiracy!
What a big conspiracy!
The high-ranking officials in the high-ranking positions in the field were sweating with fright, their backs were soaked, and they hit a spirit.
"No! Be sure to investigate and thoroughly investigate shrines and temples! The Cabinet Member was righteous, serious.
"Yes!"
"Yes, you must check!"
After this.
One by one, the plans were discussed, some of which were about shrines, temples, and monsters, and some of the research plans that had been set earlier were pushed forward, such as the Superhuman Serum Project, the Biological Mutation Project, the Seed Reserve Program, and the Human Body Modification Program.........
……
Japan, Nagoya, Aichi Prefecture, a deep mountain forest.
"Grandpa, we're going to stay in the mountains for a few days." Natsumi Tsuchimito sighed at these words from her grandfather, Kenji Dogomon.
Kenji Tsuchigomon, who was dressed as a priest of the Jingu Palace, looked up and looked at his granddaughter Natsumi Tsuchigomon, who was sitting on a rock and fanning the wind with her hands.
Alas.
Kenji Tsuchigomon sighed, not knowing whether to cry or laugh, and looked at the uninhabited mountain environment around him.
"How many days? Stay until you don't believe me anymore. ”
This scene is very magical, in this deep mountain and old forest, see an old and a young two gods and goddesses, the old sixty or seventy years old, the young in their early twenties, you will definitely think that these are two reclusive masters, full of mystery.
In fact, it does.
Whether it is this dress or identity, Kenji Tugomon can indeed be regarded as a master.
He is one of the three major shrines in Japan, the contemporary priest of Atsuta Jingu, that is, the highest priest of Atsuta Jingu.
