Chapter Eighty-Five: Ritual as a Sacrifice, Food as a Sacrifice!
What a beautiful gift! ”
"I've heard for a long time that Higashizakura's fireworks display is spectacular, and it's really beautiful!"
Zhao Youqian came from Hunan Province in his previous life, which is also a famous venue for producing ceremonial flowers, and the fireworks display at the head of Orange Island is also a dazzling ceremonial show, compared to the skills and characteristics of these ceremonial flowers are still a little worse, but the spectacular scene of Qi Qi is stronger than what Zhao Youqian has seen in the past.
For a while, the night was full of the light of the ceremonial flowers, and the moonlight was sprinkled and the vision of illuminating the mountain behind Asama Shrine was also obscured.
It's no wonder that they chose to hold a fireworks display today to cover up the unusual situation of the New Year's Festival. ’
Stepping on the moonlight and the ceremonial flowers that continue to rise to the sky, Zhao Youqian soon went up to the left of the summit platform of the mountain behind Asama Shrine.
At this time, there have been a lot of people gathered here, some Zhao Youqian has seen them, and some of them look very unfamiliar, but the clothes on his body are very familiar.
It was the clothes of the principals who represented the shrines and transcendent forces in various parts of the Higashizakura.
It has already been introduced by the bull ghost general, which forces and what kind of inheritance each clothing represents.
'Kagura of the Gosan's family, the Doomon Gate are here, and the Inari Shrine, the Michiman family..."
Slightly swept the many crowds in front of him, Zhao Youqian had already seen a lot of famous forces, but he didn't show too much surprise, but the people from these family inheritance forces saw Zhao Youqian's arrival, and they all cast their eyes.
After all, such a young master chef is already extremely rare, and the fact that he is the new master of a hundred ghosts by the way makes it even more difficult to accept whether this is reality or fantasy.
"Is he the Yaozhou boy?"
"It's so young..."
The head of the Kagura family looked at Zhao Youqian and quickly withdrew his gaze, but Zhao Youqian's youth and quiet temperament still surprised him and even impressed.
It was the head of the Tuyumen family, and Tuyumen Chuntai just glanced at Zhao Youqian and turned his gaze, because he knew that no matter how amazing Zhao Youqian's performance was, he was just their opponent today.
'The man who wants the royal family to introduce... Let's win once...'
Otherwise, it would be a pity! ’
The paper fan moved slightly, as if it was fanning the wind, but it was actually covering up the thoughtful eyes of Tuyumen Chuntai.
...
"Grand Priest."
Zhao Youqian took a step ahead of the Yellow Spring of Ishan, and saw the great priest sitting there waiting for the start of the New Year's Festival, and hurriedly went over to say hello.
"It's Youqian..."
The Grand Priest seemed to be gathering his energy, but he just looked up and smiled in response, and did not continue to speak.
This time, the priest's sacrificial costume was also extraordinarily grand.
The edge of the gold and silver thread groove is inlaid with many white jade and jadeite, forming a scene like the beginning of the opening of heaven and earth with simple lines.
Countless stars, suns and moons dot it.
There are also scenes of sacrifice to the gods outlined on the clothes with gold and silver threads, as if an epic chapter is recreated on the sacrifice clothes of the great priest.
The weight of these gold and silver threads alone is not less than a dozen kilograms, plus those jades, as well as the headdress on the head of the great priest, and the staff held during the sacrifice, you can see how tiring it will be next.
Even if it is an existence like the Great Priest, it is not surprising that he has to save energy at this time.
Zhao Youqian naturally noticed this, and did not disturb the great priest to recuperate, so he went into the place where the kitchen was preparing in the back, and let the Iyama Huangquan who followed behind him look for the old man for a long time.
"Did you come here in a hurry just to see what was going on here?"
looks powerless to complain, but there are many more delicate girls than their usual expressionless looks.
Zhao Youqian was unmoved, just checked the items he was going to prepare for the kitchen again, and then spoke softly.
"I didn't think about letting Asama Shrine lose..."
This kind of remark surprised Isayama Huangquan even more.
"Do you still want to win a Lin-level chef? You should have fought against Kohei and his father, and you have also seen the head of Dojima, the ability of the Rin-level chef, you don't know it, right? ”
"That's a level that is completely above the Grand Grade, even if you are already at the level of a Special Chef, even if you are quite a powerful one among the Special Chefs, it doesn't mean that you have the ability to fight against Lin-level Chefs..."
"From special to lin, it has been a complete transformation."
For these, Isayama Huangquan seems to know more than Zhao Youqian, and he said a lot of things.
However, Zhao Youqian only showed a smile.
"Don't underestimate me!"
"Since I said this, I am naturally quite sure!"
But Isayama Huangquan just shook his head.
"Unless you really restore the Divine Wine Immortal Tea, you have no hope of victory..."
Realizing what he had just said, Isayama Huangquan looked at Zhao Youqian incredulously.
But he didn't get any response, only a smile, which made Isayama Huangquan's pupils widen more and more!
"You... You really..."
You must know that Asama Shrine has not known for decades since he got that recipe, and even many forces have a copy in their hands, but no one can restore any part of the taste of fairy tea.
Even if there is a lack of Hundred Ghost Yuehua, similar ingredients can be found to replace them after all, but there is still no one who has restored it, so you can know that this is difficult.
You know, even a part of the taste has not yet appeared, and many people see it as impossible!
Just when Isayama Huangquan was about to say something, suddenly the solemn sound of chimes outside sounded, making everyone's voices quiet.
Zhao Youqian didn't entangle with the Yellow Spring of Isayan anymore, but walked towards the platform on the top of the mountain, and saw the scene of the East Sakura sacrifice that he had seen for the first time!
Different from the Luo Tian Dajiao of Longhu Mountain that I have seen in the one-person world, the sacrifice of Dongying is completely in a different direction.
If Zhao Youqian wants to describe it, it is more like an ancient sacrifice than a grand sacrifice with specifications.
Accompanied by a row of priests and shrines with solemn expressions, each of them put the things in their hands on the altar, and the invisible power was frantically condensed here.
The wind was howling, the dark clouds were sudden, and the sky was so powerful that it was almost impossible for anyone to move.
At this time, the great priest walked up slowly, shaking the staff in his hand, and letting out a crisp bell, while dancing wantonly, in response to the fluctuations of heaven and earth, his body swinging out a completely unreasonable form.
It's like the old shamans, but it's more mysterious and unpredictable, and it doesn't have that primitive barbaric feeling.
The words of the gods are sung in his mouth, and the anger and madness contained in that invisible power are also dissolved.
It can be seen with the naked eye that beads of sweat the size of beans on the forehead of the great priest flow into the sacrificial clothes, and with the cultivation of the great priest is still like this, you can know how tiring this sacrificial dance is.
Maybe the ordinary priest and shrine maiden had just stepped onto the altar, and she was about to burst into blood and die of that invisible pressure...
With the sacrificial dance of the great priest, the altar without too much decoration faintly revealed a ray of brilliance, which also made this seemingly simple sacrificial scene sacred and full of unfathomable majesty.
At this moment, it means that this New Year festival has reached the next stage!
It's also time for the chefs from all sides to appear!
The Kitchen Ritual is about to begin...
