I'm Really a God

"Great, this banquet is waiting for Izayo-kun, please sit next to me."

Lord Uesugi immediately asked Kou Ziqing to sit not far from Ampere. Whether it was China or Japan, being able to sit next to the lord was a proof of grace.Kou Ziqing didn't care about such things, but those officials and warriors were envious, and of course no one dared to say anything.After all, Kou Ziqing is not when he first came to this world. Not to mention that everyone knows his bravery now, but people with some identities like them understand it.

There are a few monsters that are really powerful. For example, the snake monster at the beginning caused heavy losses to Longshan City. Even if there are elite centurion soldiers to attack, there will be no return. There are too many types of monsters in the world, and some of them can be defeated by the army. However, some of them must be sent by temples and shrines. This is not just a matter of strength, but many demons cannot be defeated by a large number of people.

Kou Ziqing asked Feng to sit beside him and waited for the banquet to begin. The Lord Uesugi asked everyone to introduce themselves. Many people came up to communicate with each other, and then met acquaintances again. The man said:

"I finally saw such a day that I can communicate with Izayo-kun as colleagues at the banquet of His Royal Highness the City Lord."

"Kurosawazaemon-kun, it's you."

It was Kurosawazaemon who said this. When he entered the city for the first time, he was amazed by Kurosawazaemon because he recited Bai Juyi’s Song of Everlasting Sorrow heroically in a tavern. At that time, he proposed to let Kou Ziqing become an official. Kou Ziqing refused.

Kou Ziqing is not considered an official now, he is just like a mercenary, just like the police and auxiliary police in the real world belong to the kind that has no rights and no organization.Of course, it is enough to have the title of guardian warrior in name. Kou Ziqing doesn't practice Qi now, and he doesn't think much of the luck of a small place like Musashi Kingdom.

"When I heard the Song of Everlasting Sorrow in the restaurant that day, I knew that you were not an ordinary person. At that time, I only thought you had a literary talent. Later, I realized that I am capable of both literature and martial arts. I really thank you for the people in these cities. You can say We have returned Musashi Kingdom to a bright future, so we don’t have to worry about evil spirits.”

After Kou Ziqing said a few words of modesty, the banquet began. Kou Ziqing actually had already faded away from the simple food, so he just took advantage of this opportunity to have a good meal, so he readily agreed, but soon he found that his hopes had come to nothing.

Pickled salted fish, candied fruit, pickled radish, rice, soybeans, etc., none of them are delicacies like chicken, duck, beef, and sheep that he wanted. Kou Ziqing glanced at the city owner suspiciously, but saw him turn his gaze into an airy way:

"Izayoi-kun, I heard that you live a poor life, so today I prepared a lot of super-standard dishes, please enjoy them."

Enjoy your sister, is this what honored guests eat?

Kou Ziqing was powerless to complain, but he saw that Feng was eating with relish. The white rice dipped in salted fish was very enjoyable. It seemed that he was reluctant to drop a single grain of rice. Could it be really delicious? Kou Ziqing took a few bites, it was just ordinary salted fish And rice.

Kou Ziqing soon remembered something. The nobles of the Warring States Period did not eat a lot of meat. They believed that eating four-legged animals in the monk culture would be reborn as animals in the next life. Only uneducated farmers, hunters and low-level warriors would eat meat. .If a high-ranking public minister actually eats meat, he will be generally despised and rejected in the aristocratic circle, which is almost like modern people taking drugs.

Therefore, on the daily menu of Japanese officials at that time, basically except for pickled vegetables, pickled radish and salted fish, there were only salted fish, pickled vegetables and pickled radish.Sometimes there is not even salted fish, only pickled vegetables and pickled radish.If you get a few fresh fish or some shellfish, catch up with the spring and summer season, you can eat fresh radishes and wild vegetables, and have a cup of tea and a few small snacks made of rice noodles after the meal, then it is considered a very luxurious big meal.

"I'm going to... I'm so sorry."

After Kou Ziqing figured this out, this time he understood why City Lord Uesugi said it was a big meal, and Kou Ziqing couldn't resist his kindness, so he bit the bullet and ate it. It was really delicious.After staying in the world of food halberd spirits, he thought that although Japanese food was not as good as French and Chinese food, he never expected to eat like this 500 years ago.

While this painful banquet was in progress, some dancers and musicians came. Some of them had good figures and good looks, but their faces were pink and heavy. The heavy makeup made Kou Ziqing even more disgusted.Those samurai officials looked at it with relish, and even Feng looked at it seriously.It turned out that it was a famous geisha in Japan.

Just like the fact that Chinese young people can’t enjoy Peking Opera but it doesn’t affect it as the quintessential art of China, these geisha can be regarded as a cultural art recognized by the upper class in Japan, just like the Ming Dynasty on the opposite side will have Qinhuai eight beauties in the future.

The banquet was coming to an end under Kou Ziqing's double torture of taste and vision. After the geisha and dancers went down, some samurai got excited and even performed on stage. The same goes for the black thief Zaemon.

"it is good!"

City Lord Uesugi took the lead in applauding that he drank the least, but he seemed to know that Kou Ziqing didn't drink and didn't give Japanese sake to his place.Before the geisha dance, he just nodded to show that he was good, but now the "majestic" dance of the samurai made him look good, and Kou Ziqing wailed even more. He thought of another thing. Like a concubine.

Among the three heroes of the Warring States period, only Toyotomi Hideyoshi, a commoner, did not have this hobby, so that some samurai daimyo thought he was deviant. Later, when the Eastern and Western Kingdoms fought in Sekigahara, not many people responded. Ishida Mitsunari probably has a bad reputation. It's also because Toyotomi Hideyoshi doesn't have much brotherhood. '

"It's really a nightmarish high society in the Warring States Period."

Kou Ziqing muttered in his heart, in fact, this is nothing, the ancient Chinese idioms of broken sleeves and Longyang are brought up by the emperor and the princes, Kou Ziqing suddenly thought that if Kagome was a rotten girl, traveling through time and space to the Warring States would definitely feel like It's Paradise.

There is no permanent banquet in the world, and it finally ended after Kou Ziqing’s torment. Others left one after another. The city lord left Kou Ziqing to chat with him alone for a while. There were various hints in the city lord’s tone that he hoped that Kou Ziqing could really become an official, but Kou Ziqing was vague. The resignation made the city lord curse secretly in his heart.

"His Royal Highness, I'm going to take Feng back to the village. In fact, I have something to do when I come to see you."

Kou Ziqing talked about the reconstruction of the shrine. This kind of thing does not involve the interests of the city lord and the nobles. Naturally, the city lord has no opinion and expresses that he will communicate with the temple and the shrine soon so that they are qualified and can even be recorded in the account of the gods. .

Japan was a legal system country in the Heian period. In the middle of the Heian period, Emperor Daigo ordered Fujiwara Tokihiro to compile a set of laws and regulations, the "Enkishiki", which had detailed regulations on official systems and rituals.Two of the volumes are called "Myojin Book", and any shrine recorded on it is called Shikinaisha, and the opposite is called Shikiwaisha.

Obviously, Shikinaisha's status is higher.

Kou Ziqing was about to thank you, when suddenly a figure appeared beside the city lord and whispered something, and the city lord Uesugi blurted out in surprise:

"What, there is such a thing?"

Chapter 26 The Story of Throwing the Knife

As an ambitious big man, he would not be easily overjoyed, but at this moment, after the report from his subordinates, the city lord Uesugi blurted out in shock, which shows that something really happened that surprised him.

Kou Ziqing took a look at the person who reported that he was also wearing a ninja costume. Through this period of time, Kou Ziqing knew that among the ninjas in the Inuyasha world, there are those who spy on news like Suzuki and who often go out, and there are also those who protect daimyo like shadows and can even replace death Ninjas are generally called shadow warriors.

Lord Uesugi came to Kou Ziqing and said apologetically:

"Izayoi-kun, I'm really sorry."

"Eh? Why did the city lord suddenly apologize to me?"

"Actually...in fact, Suzuki defected suddenly!"

"Eh!?"

Kou Ziqing was stunned for a while. This was indeed something he could not have imagined. Although during the Warring States Period, it was common for samurai under the command of the daimyo to defect and even rebellion in the upper class, but ninjas seldom have such things, and Suzuki has always been valued. Why did he suddenly defect? What?

"Not only that, he took all your weapons away when he fled."

"what?!"

Kou Ziqing opened his mouth and really didn't know what to say. How could this happen?The city lord was also very confused and said:

"This incident was really beyond my expectations. Suzuki is my confidant, and I didn't treat him badly. I have known him for many years and understand why his character suddenly defected. Could it be because he took a fancy to Izayoi-kun's Peerless Man? Is it the magic knife Snow Drinking Knife?"

Kou Ziqing was speechless, the so-called Xueyin Dao was just an ordinary samurai sword, but as his reputation for slaying demons and demons spread, it slowly became the Five Swords Beyond the World. Many people have heard the rumors that he beheaded thieves and demons. When he cut down with the sword, there will be wind and snow, just like a god casting spells. If he is angry, there may even be lightning and thunder.

"That sword must have been given to Lord Izayoi by Raijin Jianyu."

"Yes, those who can split lightning are far more terrifying than Leiqie. Only gods have such power."

"Thunder God is the god of bow and arrow, and the god of sword is the god of war and war. With the protection of his divine sword, Izayoi-sama is invincible."
