I'm a Hokage in Tokyo
Chapter 368 Chapter 369 The stars hold the moon
"It's a helicopter from the Supernatural Police Department. Is Minister Uchiha here?!"
The rich and famous people from Shizuoka Prefecture flocked out of the yard, like chickens and ducks waiting to be fed, stretching their necks and looking up to the sky.
Under their eager eyes, the black helicopter circled in the sky.
Because there were many luxury cars parked around the yard, the helicopter could only fly to the outside and land. Three or five people got off.
Wearing a black suit, Minister Uchiha had his black hair slicked back and his face was as grave as water. He walked steadily towards the gate of the courtyard, followed closely by several stern police officers in black uniforms.
Seeing so many strangers who were out of tune with the village gathered at the door, Uchiha Senmen frowned and glanced around.
The Uchiha Celestial Sect looked very majestic, especially a pair of black eyes, which were particularly peculiar, as if pointing directly at the human heart, making people dare not look into them.
Although these dignitaries were eager to cling to the Uchiha minister who was crowned the most extraordinary, they were embarrassed in front of the rightful master. You looked at me and I looked at you, and you didn't dare to say anything.
"Oh, Minister Uchiha, please have your condolences."
Still among the crowd, the governor of Shizuoka Prefecture, who had the highest status, accompanied by the chief of police of Shizuoka Prefecture, took the lead to take a few steps forward and cried out.
"I hope Minister Uchiha won't blame everyone for coming uninvited. After all, we are all fellow villagers."
"Mr. Governor, if anything, everyone is interested."
Uchiha Senmon and the governor of Shizuoka Prefecture had met several times in the Diet Hall.
The Uchiha Senmen recognized him at first sight and politely shook hands with the governor of Shizuoka Prefecture.
"You must be the police chief of Shizuoka Prefecture. You are really busy."
The Uchiha Senmon stretched out his hand to the police minister, who quickly bent down and took the Uchiha minister's hand with both hands.
"I didn't expect that Minister Uchiha would still remember me. What an honor!"
Although he was still criticizing Minister Uchiha's son for his lack of etiquette, the police minister was now smiling and looking flattered.
In terms of position, the head of the police headquarters in a prefecture is only half a rank lower than Minister Uchiha. However, how many police ministers are there in the 47 prefectures across the country? How can Minister Uchiha have such a high position?
Not to mention the Supernatural Police Department, which may be upgraded to the Supernatural Agency, and then the Uchiha Minister will be even more expensive.
The Supernatural Police Department has departments in all prefectures in Japan, and its manpower is mainly drawn from the police headquarters in the corresponding area. When supernatural events occur, local police forces are often called in to support, so the Supernatural Police Department and the local police headquarters The collaboration is quite close.
Naturally, Uchiha Senmon also met with the Shizuoka Prefecture Police Chief.
As for other celebrities and gentry in Shizuoka Prefecture, they are not so honored to be remembered by the Uchiha Sect.
With their status, how could they meet such a big shot as Minister Uchiha? They could only chat with him when Minister Uchiha returned to his hometown to attend the funeral.
Starting with the Governor of Shizuoka Prefecture and the Minister of Police, other wealthy and dignitaries from Shizuoka Prefecture rushed to introduce themselves.
"Ahem, thank you for coming all the way, but it's getting late, don't keep the family waiting." Uchiha Senmen said lukewarmly.
Uchiha Xianmen knew the purpose of this group of people.
After rising to prominence three years ago, he had seen too many such flattering smiling faces.
The Uchiha Senmon had just been chatting and laughing with heads of state in New York the day before, so how could he treat a bunch of rich people from Shizuoka Prefecture in a different light?
Seeing that they were here to attend their uncle's all-night ceremony, the Uchiha Sect had already given them a good look.
"Yes Yes Yes!"
"What Mr. Uchiha said is absolutely true."
Many wealthy dignitaries did not pay attention to the indifference of the Uchiha Clan. Instead, they nodded and bowed, and stepped aside to avoid it.
"Village Chief, I haven't seen you for a year. How are you?"
Uchiha Senmon took the Yureimae from Assistant Ichimaru, handed it over with both hands, and greeted the old village chief cordially as a junior.
The etiquette was even more thoughtful than the previous treatment to the governor of Shizuoka Prefecture.
"Okay, okay!"
The old village chief's face was flushed, and the wrinkles on his face were relaxed, and he was very relieved.
In the envious eyes of other celebrities and dignitaries in Shizuoka Prefecture, the old village chief looked like he had stepped on cotton, or was so drunk that he was walking unsteadily, and was being supported by Uchiha Senmon towards the mourning hall.
It made other people's eyes grow hot.
He is just a village chief in a remote mountainous area. In the eyes of these celebrities and rich people who claim to be big shots, he is not even a piece of dust, but he can be treated so politely by Minister Uchiha.
There are also people who are quick-thinking and start to make calculations.
It seems that Minister Uchiha is nostalgic for his old friendship. Can he please use this aspect to please Minister Uchiha?
"Brother-in-law!"
As soon as the Uchiha Senmon entered the courtyard, Miru Sakaki greeted him with a smile.
She barely suppressed the throbbing in her heart and remained reserved as a woman, with a hint of enthusiasm hidden deep in her eyes.
"Nami-ryu, A-ming. Well..."
The Uchiha Sect nodded slightly. After his eyes paused on Uchiha Naruto for a moment, they fell on Matsudaira Chiyo. He looked up and down with a scrutinizing look on his face. His face was calm and there was no sign of happiness or anger.
Matsudaira Chiyo, who had been able to move freely among the dignitaries before, although her face was still dignified and elegant like a lady, was already so nervous that her breathing was a little short.
"This is my girlfriend Chiyo that I told you about. I brought her here this time just to let you meet her." Uchiha Naruto introduced.
"It's our first time meeting you, Mr. Uchiha. I'm sorry for causing trouble to you by arrogantly speaking."
Chiyo Matsudaira bowed ninety degrees with a very humble attitude and said continuously.
"Since she is A Ming's girlfriend, just call me uncle."
Uchiha Senmen turned his head, took a deep look at Uchiha Ming, then nodded to Matsudaira Chiyo:
"Thank you for taking care of A Ming, and we will continue to get along well with him in the future."
After saying that, Uchiha Senmon walked towards the bereaved family members under the mourning hall.
Uchiha Naruto originally planned to follow, but found Matsudaira Chiyo frozen in place.
He walked over, and Matsudaira Chiyo's body leaned limply in Uchiha Naru's arms.
"I was really scared to the point where my legs were weak. As the most extraordinary aura, my uncle's aura was more oppressive than any other big shot I've ever seen."
Matsudaira Chiyo pursed her lips, a little concerned about gains and losses.
"Uncle doesn't seem very satisfied with me and doesn't say much..."
"Xianmen has always had this kind of personality, cold on the outside and hot on the inside. At first glance, it seems a bit difficult to approach, but his thoughts are very delicate and his feelings are passionate." Naruto Uchiha said disapprovingly.
Aren’t you the same yourself?
Outside, he looks like an iceberg-like male god, and he doesn't hesitate to treat girls who throw themselves into his arms. At night, as soon as the door is closed, he is no longer a human being.
Like father, like son!
"How can you call uncle by his first name? How bad it is for outsiders to hear."
Matsudaira Chiyo's face felt a little feverish, and then she changed the topic and said coquettishly.
"whispering sound."
Uchiha Ming's expression was subtle and he didn't want to expand on this topic.
In front of the mourning hall, after the Uchiha Senmen comforted the bereaved family members, they walked to the coffin to pay homage to their uncle's remains, with a somewhat complicated expression.
After Uchiha Itachi told him three years ago about the secret family history of the Uchiha clan and the location of Nanga Shrine, Uchiha Senmen took the White Arowana suit several times and returned to the village to investigate secretly, but unfortunately he found nothing.
There is not even a shrine in this small village, and there is a small shrine shared with other villages more than ten miles away.
Regarding my uncle, the only elder of the Uchiha clan who is still alive, the Uchiha Clan also made insidious inquiries about the history and origin of the Uchiha clan.
But when my uncle asked, he didn't know. He said that the Uchiha family was a farmer who made a living by farming and weaving fans. This had been the case for generations.
This stubborn old man is still full of yin and yang. Did the Uchiha Celestial Sect want to have a prominent ancestor for themselves after their rise to prominence?
Even the oldest and most senior uncle has forgotten the glory of the Uchiha clan.
It seems that the secrets of the Uchiha clan have been completely buried in the dust of history. The Uchiha Clan cannot be found everywhere, so it can only be ended temporarily.
But this time when I came back, the Uchiha Sect had opened the three Magatama Sharingan eyes. Maybe my eyes now could see through the fog that I couldn't see through before.
"It's getting late, let's start the all-night ritual now."
As soon as the Uchiha Sect spoke, naturally no one dared to have any objections, and the scene was completely silent.
The monk, who had been waiting for a long time, sat in front of the coffin and began to chant sutras.
"Om! Xiu Li Xiu Li, Maha Xiu Li, Xiu Xiu Li, Sa Po Ha..."
Accompanied by the sound of chanting, the dignitaries who came to participate in the all-night ceremony came forward in groups of six and collectively bowed to the bereaved family, then burned incense and bowed again.
Then put the incense ashes into the small vat in front of the mourning hall.
The adopted daughter and son-in-law of the great-uncle was just a small family member. He had never seen such a posture before. Therefore, the Uchiha Sect acted as the representative of the deceased's family and accepted the bows from these people.
"I sincerely invite the Lord of Taishan Mansion, Su Sheng Boya, the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss..."
After the monk finished reciting the scriptures of his sect, he began to chant the memorial scriptures for Lord Taishan.
After the arrival of the extraordinary era, society has undergone subtle changes.
During the Asakusa Incident, Taizanfu-kun showed unparalleled power and was regarded as the national high priest by the Japanese government. They even treasonously invited Master Guanyin out of Sensoji Temple and replaced him with Taizanfu-kun.
Temples and shrines dedicated to Taizanfu-kun sprouted all over Japan, and the belief in Taizanfu-kun became popular.
Japanese beliefs are not strictly exclusive, and many people can even be called unbelievers.
Japanese people can pray at a shrine and then immediately go to a temple to ask for fortune-telling. They can also go to a church to attend a friend's wedding. When they return home, they have to light a stick of incense in front of the Buddhist shrine of their deceased relative.
Strictly speaking, behaviors such as chanting sutras for salvation and setting up Buddhist niches are not considered religious rituals, but are habits that have been gradually traditionalized and secularized over a long period of historical evolution.
After all, even Japanese people with other religious beliefs must be given a Dharma name by a monk after death and buried in a temple cemetery.
Taishan Fujun's belief cannot completely eliminate other Buddhist and Shinto religious beliefs.
Other Buddhist and Shinto religions have also taken advantage of the situation. Although they cannot be as shameless as the Japanese government by removing their own gods and Buddhas and replacing them with the Lord of Taishan, it is still a piece of cake to gain connections.
Taishan Fujun is not only the protector god of Tiantai Sect, but also the ancestor god of Yin and Yang Tao. He has incense in both Buddhism and Shintoism.
As a result, now, in the mainstream Buddhist ritual funerals, it is necessary to sing the memorial poem of Taishan Fujun, praying to Taishan Fujun to bless the deceased and lead him to a blissful life as soon as possible.
After all the guests had paid their respects, it was already ten o'clock in the evening, and the all-night ceremony officially ended.
According to Japanese funeral customs, gifts are also prepared for visitors.
In rural areas, it is not so particular. The gift given to visitors is a small bag of salt. Sprinkling salt can ward off evil spirits. Visitors can sprinkle salt on themselves before going home.
However, the dignitaries from Shizuoka Prefecture who came uninvited had no intention of leaving, but lingered in the courtyard eagerly.
Next is the wake, but with so many strangers staying here, it’s not a wake but a wake.
Besides, they weren't close friends, so why would they be keeping vigil for Minister Uchiha's great-uncle?
It is flattery to sacrifice something other than its ghost.
These celebrities from Shizuoka Prefecture have already rushed to the village to wear stars and moon for Minister Uchiha's great-uncle, and now they have to wear mourning for his old man.
The Uchiha Immortal clan frowned, unable to directly issue an eviction order.
"A Ming, you can go back. You are not needed for the wake here."
After all, it was only Naruto Uchiha's great-uncle who died, not his great-grandfather. He was almost out of the fifth server. Naturally, he could participate in the wake or not.
Uchiha Naru left with Chiyo Matsudaira without saying a word.
Seeing that Minister Uchiha did not allow his son to attend the wake, the powerful people also understood what Minister Uchiha meant. If he stayed here shamelessly, he would be shameless.
I can only say goodbye politely and leave.
Watching these big shots with great power and wealth in Shizuoka Prefecture, they bowed down and bowed before the Uchiha Sect.
The old village chief and Yourong Yan.
"Big Brother Uchiha has left with great grace!"
The old village chief was quite old and his health had been deteriorating in recent years. He did not attend the wake. When he walked out of the yard, he saw that some people had not left.
Unexpectedly, he saw them walking towards him.
"Guibao Land is really a place with outstanding people and a superb natural environment. I want to invest here. I wonder if the village chief has this intention?"
The president of Marunachi Tea Co., Ltd., with a smile on his face, handed over a gilt business card.
Then there were several other presidents who, citing tourism development and food production as reasons, forced their business cards into the hands of the old village chief, and shamelessly wanted to stay in the village for a few days to conduct inspections.
Looking at the various business cards in his hand, the old village elder burst into tears:
"Xianmen, how good is your name!"
This person jumped over not only the dragon gate, but also a person among the gods and immortals who were extraordinary and holy!
