Chapter 46: Kagura Dance for the Gods

Many of the events of the early summer festival are handled by the Nohara Town Association, and some things can only be hosted by the gods.

Shiraishi needed to bring the deity out of the main hall on time at 7 a.m. and place it on top of the shrine.

A group of men dressed in Edo period clothes carry a portable shrine and begin to cruise through the city of Nohara.

The steps of inviting God are complicated, and the purpose is to make people not understand, and Shiraishi does not understand either, just follow the steps of inviting God that Jing taught before, and keep a straight face throughout the whole process, without a trace of lax expression.

Even if he understood that the so-called divine body was a fake, and the great power did not exist.

But in the perception of most people, the main destiny of the great power is a real god.

It's just that there are more houses in that one.,Small shrines like Nohara Shrine.,Usually the big lord wouldn't be interested in lodging.。

Today is different, there is a festival here, maybe that one will be interested.

That's what the average person thinks.

Shiraishi naturally couldn't slack off, and with the most serious expression, he put the empty divine body inside on the portable shrine, and turned to lead the way in front.

This is also his mission, walking around Nohara City, and is expected to return here at seven o'clock in the evening to put the god back in the main hall.

Then it's time for the Kagura Dance performance.

The reason why it took so long was not that Nohara City had such an exaggerated footprint, but that the portable shrine weighed about five tons, and only forty-six people carried it.

It's not enough to just carry it, you have to shout a loud slogan in your mouth, and then shake the portable shrine, and the speed will definitely not be fast.

……

The noise gradually moved away from the foot of the mountain, and the Nohara Shrine did not return to its tranquility, and there were people who left with the floats and portable shrines, and there were also those who wanted to visit the shrine while it was clean.

Each of the three shrine maidens has their own duties.

Jun Komori cruises between the worship hall and the main hall, receiving worshippers, answering questions from guests, and saying thank you to pilgrims who have invested money in sesame oil for coming to the shrine.

The Ghost Dragon Temple Miya is responsible for recycling the old omamori and selling the omamori, Buddhist beads, incense sticks, and painted horse cards.

These items were wholesaled by Shiraishi at a low price, and the price here was doubled and sold to customers.

Nohara Shrine is able to make a fortune every year when the festival is held, and he naturally will not show mercy.

The beauty of the Ghost Dragon Temple didn't know the cheapness of these goods, and thought that they were the treasures that the Lord God had really blessed with the technique of turning butterflies, and happily bought them for those pilgrims.

Kaminagi Rin was assigned to the post of unsigning for pilgrims and selling Nohara holy water.

The so-called wild water is a sugar water that is added to boiling water, and the ratio is very low, so low that people can't say that it is sugar water.

Placed overnight, the sugar water becomes cool and delicious, a small cup of 1,000 yen, and the sales are very hot.

Shen Nagi Rin gave full play to his vision and tongue, and boasted to the man with a decrepit face that Nohara Holy Water was sincere.

For couples, the target of her conversation is women, who advertise their own skin about how great Nohara holy water is for their skin.

In just one morning, the barrel of holy water was half empty, and Kami Nagirin took time to eat bread and water, which was considered to serve as lunch.

The pilgrims who came to worship were not interrupted, some people had finished worshipping, and some people had just come up to worship.

The early summer festival is attended not only by people from Nohara City, but also by people from surrounding cities and even Tokyo.

It was the first time that Kaminagi Rin saw this deserted shrine burst into such vitality, and she was glad that she wasn't so busy every day, which was really good.

If you're busy like this every day, you don't have time to get stronger.

Occasionally, the atmosphere of the festival will bring a smile on your face.

Kaminagi Rin clenched her fists to cheer herself up and continued to greet the pilgrims with a smile.

……

At dusk, the festival reaches its peak in early summer.

There are more people.

Chocolate bananas, skewers, takoyaki, sweet round apple lollipops, and many more, there are a variety of food stalls waiting for customers.

Adults with children, young couples, and some travelers who like to join in the fun, the noisy voices are constantly in their ears, and as the pace progresses, there is no sign of weakening, but the person who speaks has changed.

With a satisfied smile on his face, Kawamura strolls through the festival that doesn't require any master to depict the bukisheng-e, enjoying the excitement of the crowds.

He felt a little regretful in his heart, after all, it was not when he was young, and he couldn't shout there with the portable shrine and the float.

You can only rush to Nohara Shrine half an hour earlier when the portable shrine returns.

He slowly blended in with the crowd of pilgrims up the mountain, reached the top of the mountain, and stopped in front of the log-colored torii.

Jingle bell.

Kawamura saw someone shaking the bell, and his ears seemed to be able to remove the interference of other people's speech, and he heard the crisp ringing of the bell.

On behalf of the gods, the five-dollar sesame oil money is put into the race box.

If you are a large shrine, you will have a larger denomination of money, and if you are a small shrine, you will have to mean five yuan.

His eyes were a little nostalgic, but he still didn't come forward to pay homage, tiptoeing, and saw the busy Ghost Dragon Temple Miya from the crowd, and also saw Komori Jun who was entangled by a group of children.

The barrel in front of Kami Nagi Rin was empty, and the people were still talking, using half-understood knowledge to unsign for the guests.

Kawamura remembered that last year, Akira was wandering outside as a god, and the person who stayed at the shrine was Shiraishi.

"Last year, that kid was able to do three jobs by himself, and they were still far behind."

Kawamura muttered, not going inside, turning to look down the mountain, expecting the portable shrine to return soon.

"I'm sorry, let me go," shouted three men in Edo costumes, hurriedly interspersing among the pilgrims.

They ran to the top of the mountain, passed through the log-colored torii, and split up.

"Miss Ghost Ryuin, leave it to me here, you go change your clothes, the portable shrine will be back soon, it's time to dance Kagura."

"Oh, excuse me."

Miya of the Ghost Dragon Temple did not hesitate, and left the makeshift shed in a few steps and walked towards the mansion behind.

There were a lot of people, it was very lively, and the thought of dancing Kagura in front of them was not as good as Miss Jing's Kagura Dance, and there was a boo below?

Oops, there was a trace of pressure in the heart of the ghost dragon temple Miya, she had participated in karate competitions many times before, and she had seen more scenes than this person a few times.

But now it's not karate, it's kagura dancing.

She practiced against the air, practiced on the camera, and could do it again.

If you actually go on stage, if you make a mistake, it's over.

"Kami-Nagi, Komori, it's not good, I'm a little nervous."

Before returning to the mansion, the beauty of the Ghost Dragon Temple looked a little depressed.

Komori replied weakly, "Me too." ”

"You're really useless, give me a chest and a head up, we've been practicing outside these nights without the Lord God."

Kaminagi Rin patted them on the back with his hand and said loudly, "The gods are not enough to thank them, so let us give the best dance in return." ”

"Shoot the front wave to death on the beach!"

Kaminagi's eyes are full of fighting spirit, and she must strive to be the first in everything, this is her motto.
