[Comprehensive Comic] Shenzi Tomie is not doing his job properly

After dawn, Kyoto residents still go in and out of Rashomon as normal. Except for the altar that was suddenly built outside Rashomon, nothing seems to have changed. No one knows what happened last night.

As for what happened last night, after Tomie talked with Seimei, he was the only person involved who was awake and witnessed it until the end. After discussing it, the two of them gave all the credit to Kamo Goryu.

So the answer the Kyoto nobles received was that the curse spirit that appeared at Rashomon that night was too powerful, and the seven people who entered were all injured to varying degrees. Among them, Sakata Kintoki was the most seriously injured. Almost unharmed.

The magician specially recruited by the Son of God played a big role in this incident. If he had not brought two magicians with him, this fully grown magic spirit would probably bring disaster to Kyoto if it left Rashomon.

The nobles in Kyoto also had to accept the fact that conjurers had become an independent sect, but whether they would accept them as officials in the court like Onmyoji priests still needs to be discussed. After all, the last one in the court had the ability to be a conjurer. The mess caused by that person has not been completely cleaned up yet. It is still very cautious to work with such lunatics. This matter can be as slow as possible.

As for the altar outside Rashomon, it was also the intention of the nobles of Kyoto.

After all, such a disaster happened at such a close distance. Similar things always happened at Rashomon. Everyone began to worry about whether there was a curse or something there. It would be best if a powerful priest held a ceremony to pray to gods and exorcise evil spirits. , just think of it as peace of mind.

By coincidence, it's almost time to hold a ceremony to pray for a good harvest this year, so we can exorcise evil spirits and pray together.

This incident was the same as the cursed spirit incident three years ago. It was Shenzi who discovered it first. This already shows his strength. In this increasingly turbulent Heianjing, it is necessary to have a powerful person in charge.

Therefore, under such circumstances, with the letters of recommendation jointly submitted by all the great priests, and with the assistance of Fujiwara Tadahei, Tomie was awarded the position of junior deputy of the sixth rank of god. With his appearance of a fifteen-year-old boy, It is said that this is already a very impressive start. Many priests in the shrine may not reach his position even if they work hard all their lives.

Tomie was selected as the host of this festival, and the son of God who had been hidden in the shrine for more than ten years was about to officially appear in the world.

On the day of the festival, the area outside Rashomon was full of people. The four major shrines jointly invited a group of the best musicians in Kyoto to perform Kagura.

The residents of Kyoto crowded around the large altar.

But those sitting in the circle closest to the altar were Seimei, Minamoto Yorimitsu, Sakata Kintoki, Kashima Takaji, Kamo Garu and Minamoto Boya, all of whom had seen the cursed spirits that night and were struck by them.

The meaning of the shrine is that they also need to perform a purification ceremony to ward off disasters anyway, and the best effect is to complete it together during the prayer ceremony.

Su Nuo was not here, and there was no trace of him after he came out of the tent. He was not corrupted by the power of the curse spirit at that time, so it didn't matter if he didn't come.

As for the self-respecting aristocratic men in Kyoto, they were naturally curious about the Son of God, but they felt that it was beneath their status to be crowded with common people, so they arranged cushions and parasols on the Rashomon gate.

People with lower official positions were not qualified to go to the city gate, and they did not want to crowd with the common people, so they sat on the bullock carts that brought them and watched from a distance.

Tomie had already arrived before anyone gathered around to take a seat. He was sitting upright in the sedan cage prepared for him by the shrine. Because he would be the one to communicate with the gods today, he did not wait until the ceremony began. Not allowed to speak.

He was wearing formal priestly attire, holding a Kagura bell custom-made for him and sitting upright on his knees in the sedan cage.

"I heard that today the Son of God will take off the mask he has worn for more than ten years at the ceremony to pray to the gods?" A nobleman on the Rashomon gate couldn't help but ask the people around him.

After hearing what he said, Fujiwara Tadohei directly explained openly: "The shrine says that it is the will of the gods for the gods to wear masks, and it also symbolizes the meaning of watching the world on behalf of the gods. However, when praying to the gods during festivals, the gods cannot use such masks. His posture, he is a child of God, how can any child look up to his father."

In fact, there is no such statement at all. It was just the final condition negotiated between the shrine and Fujiwara Chupei. Fujiwara Chupei saw the recovered divine son more than ten years ago because he was still very immature but already far older than an adult. I was stunned by the beauty of the human being, and at that time I was obsessed with seeing the grown-up son of God perform a Kagura dance.

He promised that the shrine would never interfere and control the Son of God in the future, and that he would use his power to protect the Son of God in the officialdom as much as possible while he was alive. The only condition was to see the Son of God perform a Kagura dance without a mask.

After negotiating the terms and agreeing on the constraints between the two parties, Fujiang became the host of this ceremony.

On the stage, the shrine maidens from various major shrines stood together and danced a unified Kagura dance. They were the performers before the divine son was introduced. To be honest, they were like the small group responsible for the super hot stage before the real master appeared.

The common people were happy to see it. Usually when a single shrine maiden's Kagura dance is held at a shrine festival, if you don't watch the group Kagura dance with such a large lineup now, you may miss it and there will be no next time.

The nobles were a little bit itchy. The Kagura dance held by different shrines on such a large scale was certainly very nice, but they felt a little uncomfortable after knowing who the finale was.

No one in the entire Kyoto knew that saying. The gods in the sky were worried that people with malicious intentions would covet their beloved sons, so they deliberately lowered their gods to protect the gods and warn those with evil intentions.

The shrine also hid the Son of God so well. Now it is a rare opportunity to see the Son of God in an open and honest manner. If I miss it, I don’t know if there will be another time.

Finally, the witches on the stage suddenly completed an action together and knelt down to the cage placed directly behind the stage.

The door of the sedan cage opened slowly, and the boy who had not yet fully grown out slowly moved out.

The nobles on the Rashomon gate all sat up straight and stretched their necks to get a closer look. Even the gentlemen on the bullock carts opened the curtains to get a clear view.

Shenzi came out of the sedan cage still wearing the mask without any patterned expression. He pulled the special Kagura bell with his right hand and raised his left hand to touch his mask.

The mask was slowly taken off, and the noisy environment just now was now so quiet that one could hear the hair falling to the floor. Even the musician stopped, not sure whether it was deliberate preparation or he was also shocked by the appearance.

The young man placed the mask in his hand on the altar that had been prepared by the sedan cage.

The boy with snow-white skin, who could make everyone hold their breath just by showing his face, raised his feet and slowly walked to the center of the altar. He raised his right hand in front of him and hooked the long red rope under the Kagura bell with his left hand and shook it gently. For a moment.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on him. At that moment, no one finally questioned the authenticity of the legend, and only gods could give birth to such a child.

Fujiwara Tadahei on the Rashomon Gate was so excited that he almost stood up. Even if his reason finally controlled his behavior, his body was still shaking uncontrollably. He finally saw that even if he died now, he would have no regrets. .

"Ha." Su Nuo, who was standing on the roof of the civilian area in the distance, also looked at this scene and raised a smile at the corner of his mouth: "Is this the Son of God?"

Further away, Star Bear Boy sat on the top of a tree and watched this scene. He shook his feet in a good mood, with a warm smile on his face, but his tone was a little bit complaining: "Oh, we will have a hard time in the future. .”

An ox-cart was originally surrounding the area, and suddenly violent coughing broke out after watching it for a while, but the servants standing outside the carriage didn't even notice it because they were so stunned by Shenzi's Kagura dance.

It wasn't until something was thrown from the cart and hit the servant that he realized that his frail master was sick again. He hurriedly found the medicine he had brought with him and carefully climbed onto the cart to pour water and medicine for the master.

Seeing the owner who also had a beautiful face, he couldn't help but compare the Son of God with the owner in his mind.

Although the master is also very beautiful, it may be because of his personality. His personality is too gloomy, so he is not like the Son of God who makes people want to look away after just one look.

Seeing that the master gradually calmed down, he quietly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, not bad. If the eldest master calms down, he should be able to finish watching this festival. Even if he can't finish it, at least he can finish watching the Son of God. Let’s dance Kagura. .

When his master finally regained his breath, the red eyes stared straight at him, and after a long while he said: "Drive, go back."

The servant subconsciously said: "Are you going back now? Don't you want to look at it again?"

As his master's eyes became more sinister, he also realized that his behavior was wrong, and immediately lowered his head to make excuses for himself.

"Isn't it rare for the young master to come here and not leave without seeing the Lord Shenzi? Moreover, the blessing ceremony for the Lord Shenzi has begun, so the young master also stays to hope for good health in the coming year."

Normally, he would not dare to say so many words to his young master. The young master's character is so weird that there are almost no permanent servants in his yard. He cherishes this job very much, so he has been careful to please him.

But he really wanted to watch Shenzi's Kagura dance.

"Go back!" The master raised his voice slightly.

Although there are only two short syllables, you can really tell that he is angry.

The servant had no choice but to get out of the cart dejectedly, hold the reins of the cow, and head back home three times at a time.

Fujiang, who was dancing on the stage, spotted the ox cart leaving.

I was a little distracted and took another look, and confirmed that the car had the family crest of the Utsuyashiki family. If nothing else, it should be the eldest son with a weird personality, who came specifically to watch his Kagura dance.

I don't know if I got sick suddenly. Or maybe I made him angry again unintentionally, otherwise how could I have left so well?

Fu Jiang was distracted for just a moment, continuing to maintain the output of his own spiritual power and the mobilization of the surrounding spiritual energy.

The purpose of this festival is not to let him dance alone. He needs to mobilize all the spiritual energy in the area to wash away the spells on the people under the stage who need to be purified. At the same time, he needs to wash away the curses attached to them. The remaining curse on Rashomon.

As the Kagura dance continued to be completed, he suddenly had a wonderful feeling, as if he was connected to something unconsciously.

Gradually, his mind was completely immersed in this connection.

Large clouds suddenly drifted into the originally clear sky.

A holy yet somewhat oppressive momentum leaked from the sky.

There was a sudden movement in the nearby forest, and a large amount of aura began to escape away from Kyoto.

Humans will be curious about the debut of the Son of God, and so will the monsters. After the news of this festival spread, there were many monsters who quietly came over to see the Son of God. However, they did not expect to see the excitement, and they seemed to be about to get involved. .

Isn't it just a routine ritual to worship the gods? How come the gods really come? No matter how much you pamper this son of God, it won’t reach this point!

The other priests who were originally sitting around immediately started to move and knelt on the ground in a very respectful posture.

As the uppermost clouds dispersed, the world saw the gods high above.

There were two gods who came because of the Son of God's Kagura Dance. The one at the front was a very beautiful and gentle female-looking god wearing a white robe. There were two very tall white foxes standing on either side of her.

Judging from the appearance, he should be the rice god who blesses the land with abundant crops.

Most of the other god's body is still hidden in the clouds.

His long blue body can be seen faintly.

Occasionally, the head will leave the clouds and humans will see the huge dragon head.

This one is the God of Water, Takaryu, enshrined at Kifune Shrine.

Rain has the effect of purifying and washing away the evil in the world.

The two gods correspond to the two purposes of this festival. Inari God bless this year's harvest, and Gaolong God assists in the purification ceremony.

Human beings imitated the postures of the surrounding priests and knelt down and worshiped on the ground.

Inari God raised the golden Kagura bell in his hand and waved it slightly at the farmland near Kyoto, and little golden lights were scattered.

Gao Longshen walked around the Cloud City several times, and heavy drops of rain fell.

Human beings were cheering for joy, stretching out their hands, happily feeling the raindrops falling on their bodies, and opening their mouths wide to receive the pure water dropped by the gods.

The priests and witches recited prayers to thank the gods for their manifestations.

Tomie's kagura dance did not stop. According to the ritual, if the god did not appear, he would dance until dark. If the god appeared, he would dance until the god left.

After responding to the ceremony, the god slowly opened his mouth on the cloud.

Tomie stopped and looked at the two gods.

Humans can't hear it, but he can.

God is saying: "Mother's resentment will soon reappear in the world, and the future... is entrusted to you."
