Chapter Seventy-Eight: Getting Off the Donkey (Asking for Tickets, Rewards, and Reading Lists)
Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine, Senbon torii.
The torii gate is an extremely common building in the Shinto of Yingzhou, and it is the intersection of the divine domain and the secular world, representing the entrance and enchantment of the divine domain.
The Senbon torii gate stretches for several kilometers and spans several mountains, at least 10,000 of them.
Some of these torii gates have decayed and faded after being exposed to the sun and some are still shiny, and they are intertwined with each other and crisscrossed each other, making them particularly spectacular and charming in the sunlight.
Hundreds of vermilion torii gates form a passage to the summit of Mt. Inari.
The white-haired Tsukamoto priest is hobbling down the passage with a cane.
Beside him, two little girls with fox faces and kimonos walked and babbled, not knowing what they were talking about.
"Got it, got it!" Grand Priest Tsukamoto said with a smile, "I know your senses are sensitive and can sense the breath of Kamikyo Ward......"
"Babble, whoa, babble!!" the two fox-faced dolls waved their hands in a hurry.
"Don't worry!
Grand Priest Tsukamoto stroked his white beard: "There is Tang Ze Qianjun from the Hook Xuan Pavilion in Shangjing District, and it will be fine......! It doesn't matter! What? Don't believe me? Then I'll take you up to the top of Mt. Inari and see ......."
"Ahh
"Ouch! Ouch! Slow down! I have an old bone, how can I withstand such a toss? Wait a minute, I will die on the way before I reach the top of the mountain!"
......
On the stupa of Hieizan Temple.
The "Butcher of the Ghost Gate" Ishida Ichiro and a middle-aged monk were looking in the direction of Kyoto, and his face became very solemn when he looked at the thick ghost mist.
As a great onmyoji who has been suppressing and sealing the ghost gates in various places for many years, he is extremely sensitive to the ghost fog, and he can almost tell at a glance that Kyoto must have opened the ghost gate!
Once the ghost gate is formed, thousands of ghosts will rush out, and there is no telling how many innocent people in the city of Kyoto will die.
The middle-aged monk sighed and recited the Buddha's name: "Amitabha! Kyoto is in danger, Mr. Ishida should set off as soon as possible and rush back, in case there is really a terrifying scene of a hundred ghosts walking at night and ten thousand ghosts devouring souls, I am afraid that it will be difficult to feel at ease in this life......"
Ishida Ichiro hesitated for a moment, shook his head decisively, and said, "I won't go back! Of course, there is a ghost gate in Kyoto, but there is also a ghost gate here in Mt. Hiei! Who can guarantee that the appearance of a ghost gate in Kyoto is not a trick by those monsters? What if they have the idea of diverting the tiger from the mountain and attacking the west, and after I leave Mt. Hiei, what if they come to break the seal here?"
The middle-aged monk muttered: "Of course, there is such a possibility! But there are poor monks leading the monks in the temple, and they can always resist those monsters for some time! Even if it really can't be stopped, after all, Mt. Hiei is located in the wilderness, sparsely populated, and the casualties will not be too heavy; but there are millions of innocent people in Kyoto, and the two sides are weighed, and Kyoto is more important, and Mr. Ishida should rush back to ...... as soon as possible."
Ichiro Ishida's pupils constricted, the cold glint in his eyes flickered incessantly, but his mouth refused categorically: "No need! Kyoto is indeed important, and millions of innocent people are also important, but Kyoto is Kyoto after all, and I am not the only one in Kyoto! There are at least four or five masters who are on par with me in Kyoto to protect the people! Besides, ...... As far as I know, the owner of the Kyoto Gogen Pavilion is a god who walks in the world, and with him, the ghost gate is broken, and the monsters are the most chaotic, and it doesn't hurt at all, and it can't become any climate!"
"The gods who walk in the world?" the middle-aged monk looked at him in surprise, if he didn't know Ichiro Ishida's personality, he would have thought that the old man was crazy: since the separation of gods and Buddhas during the Meiji period, most of the gods had been stripped of their positions, and only a few gods, such as the god of the soul of Uga, were still enjoying the shrine's sacrifices.
Is there any god in this world who walks on earth?
......
Gogenkan.
The ocelot made a big fuss in the backyard, causing the chickens and dogs to jump.
"Smoked" was so angry that he almost fought with it.
Fortunately, "Bai Ling" had experience in feeding pet cats, and contributed all the dried deep-sea fish that he had worked so hard to bake and gave to the ocelot.
After eating and drinking, the ocelot felt that it was respected enough in its territory, so it took a proud stride, pouted its four-edged fart, and found a place to lick its wounds.
While people were not paying attention, it quietly burrowed into the rockery and disappeared.
"Bai Ling" also ate very much.
- I don't know if it's because the fish I grilled by myself tastes so delicious!
"Smoked" but didn't eat a bite.
Although the grilled fish smells particularly good and seems to be tempting...... Ako of the devil, but ...... What are you kidding, when has she ever eaten something cooked in more than nine hundred years?
Doesn't "Life" taste delicious?
She looked at the "Bai Ling" who had already eaten but still grabbed a small dried fish in one hand, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "At this moment, is what you are revealing is your true temperament, or is it the temperament of other personalities you are pretending to be?"
"Bai Ling" eats bulging cheeks, and looks very cute. She swallowed some fish with some difficulty, and then said, "Obasan, why do you care so much, you like to meddle so much, and you can live for so long, Obasan, you are really lucky!"
- This little is really good at spitting fragrant mouths!
"Smoke" was almost so angry that he ran away again, and he almost couldn't help but summon the Qingxing Lantern Enchantment, and then shouted: There is a way in heaven that you don't go, but there is no way to cast it......
However, at this moment, two extremely amazing breaths suddenly came from outside, one of which was even more powerful than the great onmyoji Ishida Ichiro who captured her at the beginning, and he was definitely a master among the masters.
"Smoked" seemed to have been poured a scoop of cold water on his head, and he didn't dare to be presumptuous, and carefully restrained the breath on his body.
During the days in the Hook Xuan Pavilion, she had already figured out a question: Tang Zeqian, a strong man close to the gods, may have not killed her for some special reason or due to some special habit. However, this does not mean that other top masters in Kyoto will be like Tang Zeqian and will not kill her.
Therefore, once you encounter the kind of master you can't win, it's better to be cautious.
"Bai Ling" took this scene seriously, and his eyes showed a hint of mockery and ridicule: "Obasang is also very good at getting off the donkey, seeing the wind and making the rudder, and acting with the camera!!"
(PS: The new week has begun, I'm going to start asking for votes and comments~ Seriously, although I know that you are the most handsome group of readers at the beginning, but you don't vote for me, who can know that you are so handsome?)
Although I also know that you are the most talented veteran drivers, jokers, and writers at the starting point...... Pregnancy is not the same as pregnancy! Pregnancy will show pregnancy after a long time, but pregnancy will not!!
You don't write chapter reviews, you don't show your sand sculptures...... Phew, how can people see your talent if you don't show your talent?)
