The queue for applicants was very long, and Zhang Cheng waited in line for nearly half an hour before he got to the front.

The priest raised his eyelids and looked Zhang Cheng up and down, and asked in a cold tone in Japanese, "Name, age, where are the people?" Why apply? ”

Zhang Cheng hurriedly squeezed out a smile and replied in fluent Japanese: "My name is Kaneda Hayato, 21 years old, a native of Kashima, my home is on the outskirts of the eastern city, I have always believed in the god of thunder, I heard that the shrine was recruiting, so I rushed here." ”

"Oh?" Hearing Zhang Cheng's local accent, the priest's attitude suddenly improved a lot, nodded and said, "Since you are a believer in the Divine Venerable, it will be much easier, you go to the side and wait first, and when I am done, I will take you in with me." ”

"Yes, yes......" Zhang Cheng nodded hurriedly and stood aside.

After another half an hour, all the applicants were registered, during which Zhang Cheng paid attention to it and found that 90 percent of the people had passed the preliminary examination and stood with him.

Only a small number of people were brushed off and left with a look of disappointment.

Zhang Cheng roughly counted that there were at least nearly 100 people next to him.

If it is a factory that recruits workers, it is reasonable to recruit so many people, but Kashima Shrine is a place of cultivation, how much work is there? There is definitely a problem with recruiting so many ordinary people!

The registered priest stood up, patted the hunting clothes that were sitting a little wrinkled, walked in front of Zhang Cheng's group, and said arrogantly: "Come with me......

A group of people immediately followed him, passed through the Red Gate Tower, and walked along a blue brick road to the inside of the shrine.

The area of the shrine is very large, there are gardens and wooden buildings on both sides of the road, although exquisite, but the pattern is a bit stingy, there is no majestic and majestic feeling of Huaxia Mountain Gate, but more like a garden.

This may be related to the narrowness of Japan's territory, every inch of land is valuable, unlike in China, where a mountain gate occupies a mountain, and you can wave as much as you want.

After walking inside for a long time, the road ahead became winding after passing a sign that read "Tourist Stands".

Everyone walked all the way, they were a little dizzy, and it felt like they were walking into a labyrinth, and they soon couldn't find the way they came.

Zhang Cheng frowned slightly, ordinary people couldn't see it, but he could see that the layout here was very much like some kind of phantom array, although there was no mana, but it could make people feel disoriented.

However, he was not surprised, a second-rate mountain gate in Huaxia knew how to arrange a mountain protection array, and Kashima Shrine was one of the three societies on the East Island, so it was not surprising that some precautions were taken.

Walking here, there are no tourists, from time to time you can see one or two people in overalls walking by, but they all seem to be preoccupied, burying their heads all the way, and not looking at this side at all.

After walking a little further inside, turning a corner, a three-story wooden building appeared in front of him, and a middle-aged man in a hunting suit was already standing outside.

"All stand!" The priest who led the way shouted, "This is the head of Kashima Shrine, Ohno-kun, and he will be in charge of you in the future!" ”

Zhang Cheng's heart moved slightly, before he came, he had a general understanding of the position of Dongying Divine Palace, which was divided into the priest, the big palace division, the young palace division, the palace master, the palace master.

The person in front of him is called Daye, which is equivalent to the steward in the Huaxia Daomen, responsible for some chores and miscellaneous labor in the gate, which is the lowest position.

Ohnonomiya looked like he was about forty or so, he was white and fat, and he looked quite kind, but there was a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes from time to time, showing that this person didn't want to be as simple as it seemed on the surface.

"Welcome to Kashima Shrine, I would like to express my gratitude on behalf of the priests......" Ohnogu glanced around at everyone and said slowly: "You must also know that this is the residence of the Thunder God, and it is also one of the three shrines on the East Island, where thousands of Shinto Onmyoji practice. So I hope you don't walk around in the future, so as not to accidentally collide with the gods and disturb the Onmyoji's cultivation! ”

Everyone nodded at the same time, "Hey! "Yes.

Zhang Cheng also pretended to lower his head, looking at the respectful and obedient faces around him, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed in his heart.

Although Dongying and Bangzi have developed economies far beyond Huaxia, the domestic class system is really a bit strict, and ordinary people have a natural fear and obedience to the superiors.

But if you want to come back, it's because of this that the teamwork between these two countries is so efficient.

There used to be a saying that one person in Huaxia became a dragon, and three people became worms.

If one thing is handed over to one Chinese person to do, it may be done in one day, but if it is handed over to three people to do it at the same time, it is estimated that it will not be able to do it in a week.

Prevarication and procrastination are a common problem in China, and this point is particularly well demonstrated by government agencies.

Although Zhang Cheng doesn't like Dongying in his heart, he has to admit deep down that this ethnic group with an extreme personality does have a lot of merit.

Ohnonomiya talked a lot about it, but most of them were rules, that is, you can't walk around, you can't look around, and you can't talk nonsense.

As for what exactly is the purpose of recruiting so many people in, it is not clear in the end.

After Ono Miyasho finished speaking, he waved his hand and asked people to line up and enter the wooden house behind him in turn for a physical examination.

As soon as he heard this, Zhang Cheng's scalp exploded instantly.

He had thought of many possibilities before he came, but he had forgotten about it.

Dongying is densely populated, so it pays more attention to health, and no matter what you do, you must have a physical examination in advance.

It doesn't matter if you're a person, but how do you check it yourself?

If you want a heartbeat without a heartbeat, if you want blood without blood, when the time comes, you will pull out a tube of corpse gas, then you can't be exposed on the spot!

Watching the applicants enter the wooden building in turn, Zhang Cheng had to slowly retreat to the back, thinking of countermeasures in his heart, but there was nothing good to do for a while.

There were fewer and fewer people outside the wooden house, and just when Zhang Cheng was secretly anxious, several priests suddenly came from the side and whispered a few words in the ear of the master of Ono Palace.

"Obey the Priest!" Ono Palace's face instantly turned pale, and he turned his head to the rest of the people and said, "You guys leave first, and the physical examination will be paused in advance!" ”

Although he didn't understand what was going on, Zhang Cheng was still secretly relieved in his heart, and followed the priest who brought them in and left quickly.

Kashima Shrine has a rule that whoever comes in to work must stay in the shrine, and they are not allowed to go out casually in normal times, which is almost like militarized management.

In the end, Zhang Cheng and his gang were taken to a row of wooden houses east of the shrine, where the houses were all made of wooden planks, arranged horizontally in rows, looking like factories.

Zhang Cheng found his room, opened the sliding door, and found that there was no bed inside, and there was a tatami mat made of hay on the floor, which was very simple, except for a low table, and there was no other furniture.

Seeing that there was not even a TV on the bare wall, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but feel a little resistant in his heart, but he couldn't help it.
