Chapter 605: Sunglow Shrine(1/2)
Chen Yi walked on the clean street, turning his bald head and looking at the scene around him.
Somewhat familiar.
This is already his second time coming to Dongjing.
Although it's not the same world...
But there's not much difference in appearance.
The coordinates are not the time point when the main story line takes place, the Warring States Period.
Chen Yi still has to find the place where the story begins - Higurashi Shrine.
The home of that silly and sweet high school girl.
To be able to develop a silly and sweet character, the family conditions are probably not bad.
Chen Yi didn't know much about it, but he thought that if he could run a shrine in the foot basin country, there should be people of all ages...
A monk in white clothes stood on the street, and he was a monk who looked a little angry.
The return rate is really high.
Especially the little girls wearing sailor uniforms.
Wow, what a beautiful scenery.
Chen Yi took a quick look and found the most beautiful one with the shortest skirt. He went up and... asked for directions!
In Atoba Country, shrines are places where various gods in Shintoism are worshiped.
Shintoism is the local religion here and is an animistic polytheistic belief.
The idea of 8 million gods or even 15 million gods comes from Shintoism.
It is said that this thing was developed to fight against the spread of Buddhism.
So, in this way, he should be naturally opposed to these shrines?
Tsk…
This thing is here, not to mention everywhere, but it is closely related to almost every foot basin person, integrated into their lives, and its quantity is indispensable.
Higurashi Shrine is not a famous big shrine.
As expected, the young lady with the prettiest skirt and the shortest skirt didn't know.
But no matter which world, which era or which country we are in, the fact that Yan is justice will never change.
The young lady has already bowed down to Chen Yi's face.
She was very enthusiastic and proactive in helping him and his companions inquire.
Fortunately, the heroine's family is not so unknown, and some people actually know about it.
After Chen Yi got the result, he turned his face and refused to recognize the person. He ignored the young lady's request to get to know him, said thank you and left directly.
Knowing the place, Chen Yi stepped out and arrived in front of a simple torii gate.
The so-called torii is a kind of building in the shrine, which is somewhat similar to the archway of Dahua.
It represents the entrance to the divine realm and is used to distinguish the land where gods live from the land of mortals.
Stepping into the torii gate means stepping into the divine realm.
You should be respectful and behave respectfully.
However, as a bald man, Chen Yi didn't treat this thing as a heresy and slapped it away, which would be considered a great mercy, let alone awe.
We walked directly onto the long stone steps behind the torii gate.
"The shrine is closed. If you want to pay homage, please come back tomorrow."
The stone steps go up the mountain, and after passing through, there is a square.
A simple palace was built in the middle.
An old man was sweeping the fallen leaves slowly in the square with a broom.
I saw someone on the shrine and said something casually.
But when he turned around and saw a young monk, he was slightly startled and a little surprised.
What is a monk doing at a shrine?
Quit or surrender?
He speaks footbath language.
However, Chen Yi is no longer the same person as before, and he still needs Fatty Lan’s translation to understand.
In his current state, mastering a language is no more difficult than breathing.
"donor."
Chen Yi smiled and titheed the old man.
"Oh, hello, what can I do for you, monk?"
The old man's attitude was still very kind.
What Shinto teaches Buddhism is a matter left over from history.
No one can tell the difference so clearly now.
Even temples and shrines are just a way of making a living now.
"I came here to inquire about something from the donor."
Chen Yi smiled.
The old man stroked his white beard and raised his head and said: "Tell me, our Higurashi Shrine has a long history and a long history. I am a famous priest in this area. I know everything. If you don't understand anything, just ask me."
"..."
What kind of expert are you pretending to be...
Chen Yiyi has a black line on his forehead.
Judging from the "data", this old man is an extremely unreliable guy.
I don’t know how powerful the family education of Higurashi Shrine is.
But judging from the various strange things hidden in it and the many powerful foreign objects sealed inside, it should be pretty good.
But this old man definitely didn't learn much.
In addition to liking to brag, he also has no skills...
Chen Yi endured the frustration in his heart and said: "I was nearby and saw a temple that seemed to be auctioned. I wonder if the old man understands it?"
This is not something he made up out of thin air, but he actually saw it when he came.
This temple is very close to the shrine, which is very interesting.
Colleagues are irritated.
But obviously, that temple has never done this shrine.
"Um?"
The old man's eyes flashed...
Well, it’s just that the eye droppings got wet and reflected the sunlight...
"Why is the monk asking about this?"
Chen Yi smiled honestly and said: "To tell you the truth, I am not from Dongjing. I have not been here for a long time and I don't have a place to live. If it is true, I want to buy it."
"oh?"
The old man's eyes flashed again...
This time it really flashed, but it was just a light in the shape of a copper coin, flashing past.
"The price of the temple is not cheap, isn't it?"
Chen Yi smiled reservedly and said: "Haha, I don't have much, but I still have some money, which should be enough."
"..."
This time it was the old man's turn to take the dark side.
What kind of thing is this?
No matter how good that temple is, it still costs tens of billions of yen!
"cough,"
The old man coughed dryly, holding the broom in one hand and holding it on his back with the other: "Well, I know a little bit about this, but where did you come from? Are you alone?"
"You know, running a temple is not easy."
Chen Yi shook his head and said calmly: "It doesn't matter. I just want to buy it and live in it. If I don't run it, it doesn't matter."
To be continued...
