Chapter 248: The Cherry Blossoms Bloom Thirteen

Mrs. Lanzi took a fancy to the princess of Dan Zhengyin's family. This princess named Saki is two years younger than Yuan Anquan, and she has just held a dress ceremony, and she is very beautiful, and her appearance is definitely better than Guan Ye Yuanzi. This is one of the reasons why Lady Lanzi has taken a fancy to Princess Saki, and she wants a more beautiful woman to divert her son's feelings for Kanye Sonoko.

In addition to being good-looking, Princess Saki is also very talented, and she plays the piano well and draws well. The main thing is that Princess Saki is not an ordinary and weak princess, she is very good at riding and archery, is in good health, and should have many common languages with Gen Anquan.

After Yuan Anquan learned about the choice of Mrs. Basket, he made contact with Princess Saki and was very satisfied with this fiancée candidate. The two families began to discuss marriage. Before the two families could start going through the process, the cherry blossom festival began. The two families put their marriage on hold for the time being and devoted themselves to the cherry blossom festival.

The cherry blossom festival is very important to the people of Fuso, and everyone takes it very seriously. There are many cherry blossom trees planted inside and outside the city, and in March, the cherry blossoms bloom with layers of red, red and white, which is beautiful. Whenever the wind blows, it seems to rain cherry blossoms and fall on the passers-by, like a dream.

The Imperial Family holds a ritual on the first day of the Seven Days of Cherry Blossoms to worship the gods. In ancient times, worships to the gods were made by choosing a boy who had just turned seven years old to offer to the gods in order to pray for more food. Today, the tribute is no longer human, but pigs, cattle and sheep.

On this day, Yuan Anran changed into hunting clothes under the service of the maids, Mrs. Lanzi and her two daughters also changed into luxurious dresses, and the family of six had breakfast and went to the mountains outside the city. By the time we reached the foot of the mountain, many people, mostly civilians, were all dressed in their best clothes, and were stopped and waited by the soldiers. Many of the nobles also arrived, and stood in men and women. The place where the woman stood was covered by a screen made of gauze.

Although Yuan Anran is still young, because he has already become a monk, he can't go to the woman's camp and follow Lord Yuan to a group of adults.

Yuan Anran's gaze fell on the five people on the altar. The man with the white beard is a priest, and he should be very old, and the remaining four girls are witches, they are wearing white clothes and red pants, and they are all rare beauties. It is said that when these shrine maidens reach a certain age, they will step down from their positions as shrine maidens and marry and enter the backyard of the emperor and his ministers. Because of their beauty and former positions, even if they are a little older for people today, they are still very sought-after.

As if she had spotted Yuan Anran's gaze, a witch turned her head to look. She thought that it was a noble girl who coveted the witch who was looking at them obscenely, and her heart was churning with anger, but after discovering that they were looking at them as a child, the witch was stunned, and then showed a friendly smile to Yuan Anran.

Yuan Anran smiled back, turned his gaze away from the shrine maidens, and turned his gaze to the largest cherry blossom tree behind the altar. This cherry blossom tree is at least a few hundred years old, but it is still very good and vibrant. The trees are full of red cherry blossoms, and clusters of them look like - blood?! After all, this is a cherry blossom tree irrigated with blood.

Without waiting long, the emperor arrived with the empress, Lady Masako, and the little princess of the crown prince. The sacrificial ceremony officially began. The priest sang a song with a quaint tune on stage, and the four shrine maidens danced to his song. All the people knelt on the ground and prayed to the gods very reverently.

Yuan Anran didn't believe in the existence of gods and ghosts, but at this moment, he seemed to feel a wave of energy floating above everyone's heads, that energy was thick and full of life, not any kind of energy she knew, even nanobots could not detect it.

Is there really a god or a ghost in the world? Or are you hallucinating?

Yuan Anran stared at the cherry blossom tree with big eyes, and the cherry blossoms on it seemed to bloom more gorgeously.

The entire sacrificial ceremony was completed, and Yuan Anran still did not return to his senses. The impact of this sacrifice on him was too great, and his firm three views were crumbling. He remembered all kinds of legends about fairies and ghosts on the earth, the setting of Xiuzhen, and the setting of God, demons, and vampires...... Could it be that these are not the fictions of earthlings, but that such an existence really existed? Not the product of the earthlings' brains?

Yuan Anran felt at the moment that her understanding of the earthlings was still too one-sided, and when he returned to modern times, he must collect more information in this area, take a look at it, and maybe he would be able to find some clues. What, if there is really a cultivation in this world, he is an alien, can he cultivate the truth? Yuan Anran decided to study the difference between his body and the body of an earthling after he went back, especially the difference between the meridians.

"What do you think?" Yuan Anquan patted his younger brother's head, this kid is in a daze, isn't he afraid of being knocked down? Yuan Anquan took his brother's hand and led him to his ox cart. A total of three ox carts came to the Yuan family, one for Lord Yuan and Mrs. Lanzi, one for the two princesses of the Yuan family, and one for Yuan Anquan and his younger brother.

Yuan Anran came back to his senses, sat down on the ox cart, and asked Yuan Anquan: "Big brother, do ghosts and gods really exist in this world?" ”

"Of course, I saw it with my own eyes when I was a kid." Yuan Anquan gave Yuan Anran an answer that surprised him.

Yuan Anran puffed out his eyes and asked, "Have you seen ghosts and gods with your own eyes?" What do they look like? ”

"Uh...... I do not know. ”

"Then you said you saw it with your own eyes?"

"What I saw was the ghost that was sealed on the yellow talisman after the Onmyoji was subdued, and I didn't see what the ghost actually looked like." Yuan Anquan replied.

Yuan Anran Dead Fish Eyes: The Ghost on the Yellow Rune Paper? Hehe. This kind of trick, he can come up with it casually? As for Gen Anquan's "ghost" - Heiankyo, when something happened in the family of the nobles, they called it "ghost".

Forget it, let's go back and study more yin-yang techniques, maybe we can find out something.

Cherry blossoms only have seven days from bloom to flowering, so there is a saying that cherry blossoms are seven days. The first day of the 7th day of the cherry blossoms is a sacrificial ceremony, and the remaining 6 days are spent viewing the cherry blossoms and holding a drinking party. People set up a sumptuous banquet under the cherry blossom trees, chant poems and paint, and drink heartily while getting drunk. Young lads and lads are able to socialize freely in these days, chasing and playing, and falling in love. Every year after the cherry blossom festival, many families hold a happy event, and the princesses and princesses happily join together.
