Chapter 256: Gods, Dusk
The sliding door on the side was suddenly opened from the inside. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
A pale face appeared in front of Lin Fan.
When he saw it clearly, he found that it was not some so-called ghost, but a person wearing a milky white mask, but at first glance it looked like a ghost, and the person was wearing bright and luxurious clothes, all made of fine brocade, and there were as many as five layers of clothes on his body!
For some reason, the light in the room suddenly dimmed a lot, and the dancer wearing the mask came to the middle of the room, and suddenly someone beat the small drum, and the sound echoed in the room, as if it had struck the hearts of everyone present, and the drum beat was low, like a ghost in the depths of hell.
Lin Fan suddenly understood that Ichisawa Linchi wanted to watch a traditional Japanese Noh performance by himself.
The dancer's appearance is very graceful, dressed in colorful clothes, and her figure reveals charm, just like a peerless girl wrapped in tulle, which makes people's hearts flutter.
The sound of a narrator ringing in the room reveals that the dancers are playing the role of the mother goddess of Japan, Izanami.
The small drum beat continued, soothing and soft, and the door opened, and another man in a golden robe and a white mask on his face stepped out.
As the story unfolds, the gods of Japan set out to go down to the world to repair the land, and the two gods stood on the bridge of the heavens, probed the spear of heaven given by the gods into the sea, stirred it vigorously, and lifted the spear out of the water, and the sea water that dripped from the tip of the spear condensed into an island.
After the island was formed, Izanagi and Izanami erected the Heavenly Jade Pillar on the island and built the Yatsumi Temple, and Izanagi said to his sister, "Let's walk around this Heavenly Jade Pillar, and we will unite at the place where we meet and give birth to the land!"
Izanami nodded and said, "Good!"
"Then you go from the right, and I will meet from the left!" Izanagi said, and the two of them began to walk around the pillar, and it didn't take long for them to meet, and Izanami was surprised, "Oh, what a good man!"
Izanagi hurriedly said, "Oh, what a good woman!" Suddenly, as if he had discovered something, he said to his sister Izanami, "The woman spoke first, it's unlucky!"
The two dancers brought the story to life, slowly circling the room, holding each other's palms, as if they were surprised by each other's beauty.
The two people hugged each other tightly, put their palms on each other's backs, representing the union, but the child they gave birth to was a leech (a fetus with incomplete bones), and the two put the child into the reed boat, let him go down the river, and gave birth to Awashima, but the result was still defective.
Izanagi said, "The child we gave birth to this time is not good, let's go and ask the gods what the reason is!" So the two of them went back to Takamagahara, and the gods asked them to divinate the gods, and after the results of the divination came out, the gods said to the two, "Because the woman spoke first, it's not good, so you can say it again!"
After the two of them came back, they walked around the Heavenly Jade Pillar as before, but this time it was Izanagi who opened his mouth first, and the two gods were combined again, and the remaining children were really no problem, and the eight children were now the eight major islands of Japan!
After giving birth to the eight islands, Izanagi and Izanami began to give birth to the gods again, but when they gave birth to the god of fire, Izanagi's wife was burned to death by the god of fire, and he felt very angry and said, "Although you are my son, you killed my wife, but it is unforgivable!" After saying that, he used his sword and ten fist swords, that is, the heavenly feather feather, to kill the god of fire.
Izanagi missed his wife Izanami very much, so he chased him all the way to the Yellow Springs Kingdom, and in front of the gate of the Yellow Springs Kingdom, Izanami opened the gate to greet him, and Izanagi discussed, "My dear wife, the land I and you have created is not yet complete, please go back with me!"
Izanami replied, "It's a pity that you didn't come earlier, I've already eaten the rice of the Yellow Spring." However, since you came to me on purpose, I am willing to go back! Let me consult with the gods of Huangquan. But don't look at me in the meantime!"
After a long time, Izanagi got a little impatient, so he took off the multi-toothed wooden comb from his left bun, broke off one of the comb teeth on the wooden comb and lit it, and this flame illuminated the eternal darkness of the Yellow Springs Kingdom, and Izanagi finally saw his wife, a carrion corpse crawling with maggots that had not yet recovered, dressed in colorful corpse clothes.
Izanagi fled in terror after seeing the scene in front of him, and Izanami hated him for not keeping his promise, and sent the Huangquan Ghost Maiden to chase after him.
Izanagi took off the black hair ornament on his head and threw it on the ground, and soon wild grapes grew, and the ghost girl ate wild grapes, and finally, Izanami himself chased after him, and Izanagi fled to a place called Huangquan Hirazaka, and blocked Huangquan Hirazaka with a thousand stones, and the two of them broke off their marriage contract across the boulder!
Izanami said angrily, "My husband, if you treat me like this, I will kill a thousand people every day in your country!"
Izanagi said: "My wife, if you do that, I will build 1,500 maternity wards every day. ”
In this way, the population of Japan slowly began to increase, and Izanami was also known as the god of Huangsenzu.
After returning from the Yellow Springs Kingdom, Izanagi said that he went to a very filthy place, so he washed his body in the river, and many gods were born, and when he washed his left eye, Amaterasu was born, when he washed his right eye, Tsukiyomi was born, and when he washed his nose, Susanoo was born.
These are also the three most expensive children he has ever born, and he gave Amaterasu the Yagashi Mirror, which symbolizes the sun, Tsukiyoyu, the eight-foot Chogoyu, which symbolizes the moon, and Tenha Yu, the sharpest sword, to Susanoo, and the three were also sent to govern Takamagahara, the Land of Night, and the Ocean.
There is a dark curtain between the dancers, symbolizing the eternal severance of the Yellow Spring, and Izanami is crying quietly behind the scenes, while Izanagi is playing happily with his children.
What a stark contrast......
Such a deep resentment, but only because the original encounter was so beautiful.
After the dancers of the show withdrew, a young man dressed as a teenager came indoors and began another performance, and he took Tenha Ha to Izumo Province, where he met a beautiful girl named Ki Inada Hime, the last daughter of an old couple, whose seven older sisters were eaten by youkai who were as big as a mountain and had eight heads.
That monster is the Eight Miscellaneous Snake!
The Eight Miscellaneous Orochi has to devour a beautiful girl every year, and this year it is the turn of the Odd Rice Field, Susanoo likes the Odd Rice Field, how could he allow the woman he likes to be eaten by the youkai, and decided to kill the Ichiza Orochi!
He prepared eight jars of spirits, turned Qi Daotian Ji into a comb and put it on his head, and when the Eight Miscellaneous Snake was drunk, he took the opportunity to use the Heavenly Feather Feather Slash to cut the Eight Miscellaneous Snake into one by one, and when he cut the snake's tail, he found that the Heavenly Feather Feather Slash such a divine sword had been broken open a gap, which was incredible.
After putting aside the flesh and blood on the tail, I found that there was a sharper divine sword hidden inside, the Heavenly Cloud Sword!
Susanoo dedicated the Tencong Cloud Sword to his sister and married Ki Inada Hime.
(The relationship between traditional Japanese gods is very chaotic, and it is often a combination between brothers and sisters to give birth to other gods, and Susanoo even combined with his sister Amaterasu Daigojin to give birth to three goddesses such as Tian Xinhime...... Perhaps this is what Japan is now...... What's the reason for that?)
Many years ago, on the land of Japan, there were many Shikigami and spirits everywhere, and even the souls of some old people after death could become a kind of Shikigami because they missed their families!
The sky is falling, and a hundred ghosts are walking at night!
In ancient times, Japan was a country where people, ghosts, and gods lived together!
After the performance of the Noh drama, Lin Fan finally understood the origin of the night walk of the hundred ghosts, and solved the doubts in his heart, but suddenly remembered the words similar to the prophecy that Xue Chiyo said before, and respectfully asked Ichisawa for a solution.
Ichizawa Linchi sighed lightly, his eyes were full of heaviness, and he said: "This is just the content recorded in the "Ancient Chronicles", how can real ordinary people in history know about it!?"
The Eight Miscellaneous Snake is not dead!
Susanoo left after cutting the Yaqi Orochi into many pieces, thinking that he had killed the Yaqi Orochi, but the vitality of this monster was too strong, although the blood flowing from the huge body like a small mountain soaked the valley, but it was still not dead, and it was difficult to connect the body together and escape.
And at that time, Susanoo had already returned to Takamagahara, the kingdom of the gods, and he didn't know about it at all.
Later, after a long time, the gods were not visible, but the Yachi Snake reappeared, wreaking havoc on the land of Japan, at that time there were many families similar to Ichizawa Sanjia, and the legendary eight million gods were not just exaggerated!
In order to prevent the Eight Snakes from harming the civilians, the whole of Japan was involved in this war, and countless families, Shikigami and the Eight Snakes fought together!
However, the Eight Snakes are too powerful, although they are far from regaining their strength at their peak, but they are not something they can deal with, and the vicinity of Mount Fuji is the main battlefield, and the eight heads of the Eight Snakes spew out flames that burned the mountains and melted everything.
Thousands of Shikigami perished in the flames, and lost their lives in an instant!
This is also the reason why the bones of the Shikishen at the bottom of those pits appear in pieces!
All the Shikigami and human ninjas rushed towards the Eight Snakes without fear of death, and they all had the determination to die, like moths to fire, like little ants, wanting to bite the giant elephant of the Eight Snakes alive by numbers.
The battle was undoubtedly tragic, the sky collapsed, the red magma on the ground flowed into a river, the sky blew a bitter wind, countless Shikigami and ninjas died, the family disappeared from this world, and the power of Japan was devastated!
In the end, at the cost of losing nine adult horses, the Eight Miscellaneous Snake was successfully consumed into a state of serious injury, but it still failed to completely take its life, or let it escape into the earth!
It was undoubtedly the darkest era in the history of Japan!
Since then, the scene of Hyakki's nocturnal journey has never been seen again, and some of the families that have not completely disappeared have also been greatly damaged, and their vitality has been greatly damaged, and even gradually perished in the wheel of history, and now only the three families of Uesugi, Ichizawa, and Genji remain.
Lin Fan was in turmoil when he heard this, he didn't expect the real history to be like this, the record of the so-called Eight Miscellaneous Snake being wiped out by Susanoo was just to deceive ordinary people, only the people of their family knew that the most terrifying monster in history was not dead!
Even they suspect that the Eight Miscellaneous Snake can't be killed!
And that prophecy was made by a very famous prophet before his death, and the prophecy clearly stated that when the sky above his head changed, and the earth collapsed, revealing the bones of the gods, the race that destroyed Japan would appear, and the Great Snake would probably return again at that time!
Lin Fan knew in his heart that the so-called falling of the heavenly dome had already happened, and the desolate world was connecting with the abandoned small world where the earth was located, referring to this one thing, and several warning signs behind it had all appeared, if the prophecy was true, the crisis of destroying the entire Japan would appear!
It's no wonder that Chiyo Yuki's temperament changed his plan to soak in the hot springs, and he came to the family to report the incident to Ichisawa Linchi.
Ichizawa said solemnly: "I believe that the things in the prophecy will appear soon, but unfortunately, in this era, the gods have long been invisible, if the Eight Miscellaneous Snake reappears, who can stop it?"
"I believe that the people of the Uesugi family and Genji should also find out, and it is estimated that both of them are also thinking about this issue. ”
Ichizawa suddenly sighed, "It's a pity, no one in our family has ever been able to awaken Susanoo's life!"
"Susanoo's man's life?" Lin Fan was puzzled.
"Yes, the three of us represent the lineage of the three gods, Genji represents Amaterasu, Uesugi represents Tsukiyomi, and our Ichisawa family represents Susanoo. ”
"Every generation or generations, there will be people in the family who have Amaterasu, Tsukiyomi and Susanoo, they have been favored by the gods and can exert the power of the gods! Genji has been born a genius with Amaterasu, Uesugi Ayane of the Uesugi family seems to be Tsukiyomei, and now only our Ichisawa family has not moved, and Susanoo's life is not visible!"
"Once the war with the unknown race begins, without the protection of Susanoo's life, our Ichizawa family will probably be the one who suffers the most......" Ichizawa sighed.
When Lin Fan heard him say this, he also felt that there was something unusual about these people who had inherited the will of the three great gods, and suddenly remembered a question and said, "Where did the Eight Great Snakes flee in the end?"
Ichizawa just looked at him and didn't speak.
Lin Fan suddenly understood, and said in surprise: "Is it in this Mount Fuji?"
