Chapter Eighty-Three: Shinto!
Soon, under the threat of guns from the Japanese people.
Li Muxuan's master and apprentice walked out of the private room and were forced to walk to the last carriage of the train.
Not only them, but also some monks and Taoist priests in the car, or people in strange costumes and suspicious appearances, were all forced together by the Japanese people.
There were a few people in the middle who were not convinced and wanted to resist.
But he was either frightened by the muskets, or he was beaten by the Japanese and his nose and face were swollen.
In this regard, junior brother Lu Jin wanted to step forward to stop it.
was stopped by Master Zuo Ruotong.
And Li Muxuan was not in a hurry to make a move, he looked at these 'strange people' along the way.
It was found that most of them were ordinary people, and a few of them may have been pretending to be Japanese people, who deliberately provoked the Japanese with guns, and then were escorted away with them.
I think it's to spy on their gang of 'strange people', and I'm afraid that I and the others are assassins.
Besides.
At the junction of each carriage, there stood two or three men with guns and a priest's dress.
This made Li Muxuan a little surprised.
What the hell is going on.
Can this group of Japanese people engage in such a big battle?
You know, Inhumans usually don't take it lightly, especially when they openly appear in the field of vision of ordinary people.
Although the world is not very good now, it is barely stable, and there are no more big battles between the warlords, and because of this, suddenly so many people from the Japanese country have come here, and there must be some scheme.
In the middle of my mind.
The three of them came to the last carriage.
After choosing a middle seat and sitting down.
Lu Jin, who was held to his head with a gun all the way, asked in a low voice after scanning the surroundings.
"Master, what's the situation?"
"Shh
Zuo Ruotong made a gesture of silence, and then said by means of transmitting the sound into the secret.
"These people are from the Shinto religion of Wakoku, which is their state religion, and worships the emperor as a human god, with Amaterasu as the main god, and Ise Jingu as their main sect."
"The purpose of the Tao is to honor the kindness of the gods, to seek the prosperity of the shrine, to promote Shinto, and to promote morality."
"Although they claim to worship eight million gods, to put it bluntly, they are just some ghosts, and they can't get on the stage at all, and they are not even as good as the ghosts controlled by the witchcraft faction."
"It's said to be Shinto, but it's actually similar to the way of ghosts."
"It was only to cater to the needs of the rulers that they were put on the table and used to suppress the other factions."
"But don't underestimate them two, although it's just some witchcraft and ghost tricks, but with the help of ghosts and ghosts, they can increase their strength in a short period of time and gain special abilities."
Zuo Ruotong obviously dealt with this group of people, and said like a few treasures at the moment.
After listening, Li Muxuan already knew it in his heart.
Although he was not very familiar with the Shinto religion of the Wa Kingdom, he had been hanging out in the library for many years.
I still know a little bit about witchcraft.
The soul of a person dies and turns into a spirit, and this spirit is actually a ghost, and the ghost does not always exist between heaven and earth, and someone needs to be worshiped with incense to keep its spirit alive.
Of course, there are also some demonic methods.
For example, using the blood of boys and girls to sacrifice ghosts, or finding a place where yin qi gathers to raise ghosts.
But these are generally rare.
Only a few of the wild grass mountains, or the whole of the sex, would do this kind of thing.
Like the Shangqing faction in the Zhengyi Sect or the Heavenly Master's Mansion, the orthodox Taoist sects all use incense to worship the gods, and at the same time, they will not use the means of inviting the gods to come up.
There is a way that the righteous god does not possess the body, and the possession is not the righteous god.
Daomen disciples usually open the altar and use the power of ghosts and gods with talismans.
so as not to pollute one's own spirituality.
It's just a Japanese country.
Although many spells were learned from the flower planter, they were obviously not learned properly.
Whether it was their onmyoji, monks, or Shinto, they had only learned the level of magic, and the core part of the Tao was selectively ignored.
Take Shintoism, for example.
The door is dedicated to the gods.
It's just that when the patriarch comes to respect, he won't say anything about being proud of serving ghosts and gods, let alone a god servant.
Shintoism, on the other hand, is the complete opposite, not seeking its own nature, but kneeling at the feet of demons and gods, which is simply a kind of sacrificing the basics, and the eyelids are too narrow.
Of course, this may also be due to the unity of church and state.
The Emperor is their living god.
It's not God that this group of people licks.
It is their supreme ruler who licks and uses this to obtain the corresponding social status.
And although there are Taoist priests who sell themselves to the ruler in the flower planters, most of the Taoist priests still only cultivate their own Taoism, and do not talk to ghosts, gods and rulers.
Just thinking about it.
Master's voice rang out again.
"Looking at their clothing, this group of priests should all be from the main sect of Shintoism, Ise Jingu."
"This is the biggest sect in their homeland."
"The status in the Shinto Sect is similar to that of the Heavenly Master's Mansion in the Shoyi Sect."
"From this point of view, the people who came from the Wa Kingdom this time are not ordinary, either their military high-level officials, or at least the gods of the Ming rank, or even the pure rank."
"I just don't know what they're doing here."
Zuo Ruotong spoke.
The priests of the Wakoku Shinto religion are divided into five ranks.
The pure order, the bright order, the positive order, the correct order, and the straight order, among which the net level has the highest status.
And the net rank priest of Ise Jingu.
The status is comparable to that of the Heavenly Master.
"Master, what are we going to do now?" Li Muxuan asked by means of sound transmission.
He didn't have a good impression of the Japanese themselves, after all, as a traverser, he knew that in a few years, the Japanese would do something to this land.
The kindness to them now will turn into cruelty to the people of this land in the future.
Not to mention.
Shinto itself is the emperor's most loyal dog.
There is no psychological burden to kill them.
"Don't worry, let's find out the widows hidden in the carriage first." Zuo Ruotong said: "Wait and look at the Tang Sect, if you really want to do something with the Shinto Sect, just leave no one behind, and kill them all!" ”
"Good!"
Li Muxuan agreed without thinking.
Let's be honest.
He had never seen Master kill so much.
But think about it too.
I just heard about those humiliating histories in later generations, and I hated the invaders of the great powers very much.
Master is a first-hand witness of these dark years, and in the face of this group of foreigners who invaded the land under their feet and killed their own compatriots, of course, the hatred is only shallow.
At this time, it was as if the master and the senior brother had reached some kind of agreement in secret.
Lu Jin suddenly felt a sense of loss that he had been kicked out of the game.
Of course, he himself understands.
With his current strength, it is estimated that it will be very reluctant to deal with one of the priests, let alone help.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but make up his mind that after returning to the mountain gate this time, he must cultivate harder, and definitely not hold back the master and senior brother!
And right now.
A clear voice suddenly sounded.
"Cigarettes. Eight treasure porridge with melon seeds."
Li Muxuan followed the sound and looked.
I saw a young man of his own age, with a wooden box full of groceries hanging from his chest.
And his appearance.
Immediately attracted the attention of the widows guarding the door.
"Get out!"
The Japanese raised their hands to stop him.
Seeing this, the young man smiled flatteringly: "This master, please be accommodating, I have no one to buy anything all the way, and I will definitely be scolded if I go back like this." ”
As he spoke, he took out a pack of cigarettes and handed it to the other party.
But it was thrown away.
"Get out of here."
The widow shook the gun in his hand with a displeased face, obviously extremely impatient in his heart.
The priest standing next to him had his heart hanging in his head, staring at the young man vigilantly, for fear that the other party was an assassin in disguise, ready to fight at any time.
After all, the other party's behavior is too suspicious.
I know there's a danger here.
He even dared to step forward.
Although there is no problem with the current performance, he does not dare to bet on whether the other party will suddenly make a move.
It was at this point that the train gradually slowed down.
Apparently almost arriving at the site.
"Yes, yes, yes."
The boy seemed to be frightened by the gun, nodded in a panic, and hurriedly turned around without caring about the cigarette on the ground.
Seeing this scene, the priest subconsciously lowered his head and wanted the other party to pick up the cigarette, but the next moment, the cigarette exploded instantly, and a puff of cyan smoke spread rapidly!
"Not good!"
The priest hurriedly held his breath.
And those who were armed with guns suddenly felt dizzy, and they couldn't even hold the guns in their hands.
This sudden change.
Apparently it also alarmed other hidden widows in the carriage.
They were suddenly like they were facing a great enemy
It was at this time.
The train stops.
Li Muxuan was about to kill these widows, but was stopped by his master Zuo Ruotong.
"Wait." Zuo Ruotong spoke, he had been in contact with the disciples of the Tang Sect, and the other party should pay attention to killing with one blow, just the poisonous smoke may just be a feint.
And what's the use of killing a little priest?
Putting it in the light is just a distraction.
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sound of footsteps outside.
A group of soldiers armed with muskets appeared on the platform, pointing their guns at them through the windows.
Obviously, the other party has been prepared.
"All of you come down!"
Said a man in an officer's uniform.
But it shouldn't be a Japanese person, because the other party doesn't have that very recognizable accent.
Seeing this scene, Zuo Ruotong's master and apprentice looked at each other, and did not choose to resist, but followed the general flow, lined up one by one to get out of the carriage and come to the platform.
At this moment, the innocent people who were involved in this matter with them.
Trembling, he was pointed at gunpoint.
None of them dared to speak, for fear that the slightest change would be killed by this group of soldiers.
And Li Muxuan's eyes looked left and right, but he didn't see the young man who released the poisonous smoke just now, thinking that he had escaped, but he was at the front of the whole train.
A middle-aged man in a blue priest's robe was standing with the Japanese who had been assassinated by the Tang Sect before.
There are also several priests next to him to protect him.
It can be seen from this that the identity of this middle-aged man in the blue god robe should be extremely good.
"I see."
Zuo Ruotong also noticed the middle-aged man at this time.
I suddenly understood in my heart.
No wonder the people of the Tang Sect said that this mission was very important, but they didn't expect it to be a Ming-level priest of the Shinto Sect, and depending on the age of the other party, maybe he would still be cultivated as the future Great Palace.
It can be understood this way.
The status of this person in the Ise Shrine is equivalent to Zhang Zhiwei in the Heavenly Master's Mansion and Li Muxuan in the Trinity Gate.
Come to think of this.
Zuo Ruotong's eyes suddenly turned cold.
Since I have touched it.
If the people of the Tang Sect fail, they will try to keep this person no matter what they say.
Just thinking about it, I saw several black shadows suddenly pop out of the bottom of the carriage, without any bells and whistles, like a poisonous snake that had been waiting for a long time, directly pounced on the Ming-rank priest.
See this scene.
Zuo Ruotong no longer hesitated.
"Do it!"
I'm sorry readers, but to be honest the card is a bit serious.
This chapter sat in front of the computer for a day
Deleted, deleted, modified, and written only after bumping into it.
Because there are too many things to avoid in the history of the Anti-Japanese War, many things can't be moved, and I really haven't thought about a lot of things about the plot of Tangmen, which leads to a feeling of not knowing where to start, but I don't dare to write casually.
First, I am afraid that it will affect the follow-up trend, and second, I am afraid that it will affect the reading experience of readers, so the update is delayed so late.
I'm really sorry about that.
In addition, I would like to thank you all for your continued support.
It's just that I'm personally more introverted, and it's not that I don't want to say some things, but I really have social phobia, and my mouth is stupid, so I will only reply to everyone about the plot and characters.
Please forgive me
