"Mission: Accept the canonization of Fuso·Xingui God, kill the attacking Yamata no Orochi, and locate the way home (unfinished)" As Pei Ziyun agreed, a plum appeared quickly in front of him, and quickly enlarged, changing into a flower with a Lightly light information frame.
"Hey, the final mission."
"As my power grows, the tasks become fewer and fewer. Now, the final task is finally released." After experiencing several worlds, Pei Ziyun understood the rules of tasks assigned by the system and pondered in his mind.
"Upstart God? Is it a personality caused by the history of this world?"
Originally, only the emperor had the authority to consecrate ghosts and gods, but the Shinkawa shogunate was established, a shrine was built, and the "Twelve Articles of Shinkawa Laws" were promulgated, which not only stipulated the fundamental laws for cutting the world's stone high, but also declared that the first shogun was the incarnation of a great god. He and the Three Noble Gods exist as equals and rule the world together. They also have the right to canonize and manage the gods. Therefore, they are called the New Noble God, also known as the two Noble Gods before and after. Their historical names are longer than those of the Tianjin God.
"In other words, being canonized by the emperor and shogun will help you find your way home."
"As for killing Yamata no Orochi, it's just about gathering enough strength to go home."
Pei Ziyun was thoughtful for just a moment and did not arouse doubts. Yamada's answer made Togawa Jiuxing sigh in relief, and the smile on his face became more genuine.
Although he was a member of the Gao family who served under the shogunate, he knew some details and believed in the power of the shogunate. However, as an ordinary human being, he actually had a subconscious fear of the gods.
When he first saw Yamada Shinichi's true invulnerability, Togawa Jiuxing had a deep impression on "Yamada Shinichi" deep in his soul.
As the domestic situation became more severe and spiritual power continued to awaken, Togawa Jiuxing, who was still able to make some random jokes to Bando Enko at the beginning, had to lower his head slightly. He might not know it because of his lower status, but he was like this. How could the important officials of the shogunate not know that now is not the time to offend these people.
If Yamada Shinichi does not agree, or is unhappy because of it, Togawa Jiuxing may not be really afraid, but he will definitely feel uneasy in his heart.
Now everything is solved and the mission is going well, but it's time to go back and deliver the work.
This shogunate official, who looked serious and calm to outsiders, couldn't help but feel a little more relaxed - no matter what, these are troubled times, and it is naturally a good thing to win over the strong.
Togawa Jiuxing's mission was completed, and his companions still had other missions.
At this time, the priest who had rarely spoken along the way came forward: "Master Yamada, I am Tajima Nanase, the senior priest of the Shinto Agency. I came to visit you on the order of the Shinto Agency. Since the major matter has been decided, there are still details to discuss. Please wait a moment."
This request is not difficult to understand, and the Shinto Agency also has the confidence.
The Shinto Agency controls 80,000 shrines across the country. During the spiritual recovery season, its power expanded rapidly, which even the shogunate had to pay attention to.
Now that the shogunate's task has been completed, the details have to be discussed by the Shinto Agency. Togawa Jiuxing knew this very well. Although he did not like the domineering Shinto Agency, he could only get up regretfully: "In this case, I will go out first. ”
After saying that, he backed out, Yuanzi and Kana also got up and went out.
Until then, the priest who had kept his head bowed took out something from his arms and handed it to Pei Ziyun: "Sir Yamada, this is a document issued to you by several adults in the hall. Please take a look."
Pei Ziyun did not answer immediately, but looked at the person and asked, "I'm sorry, you look strange. Have you never met your Excellency before?"
There was no such person among the priests who had come into contact with Pei Ziyun in the past, but if there was a choice, the Shinto Office would be willing to appoint someone more familiar with him.
Tajima Nanase had a good temperament. She smiled apologetically and bowed her head in response, which was even more harmless: "Sir Yamada, I have just been promoted to this department and I used to work in the outer hall."
This surprised Pei Ziyun, but after thinking about it for a while, he could understand it.
Frequent occurrences of supernatural phenomena and unrest in the country have severely affected the shogunate and the chaebol, but the Shinto Agency has a great influence. It makes no sense that the first two were targeted, but the Shinto Agency was spared.
Thinking of the attacks by some priests, it must have been infiltrated into the Shinto Hall.
But compared to the shogunate and the zaibatsu, the Shinto Agency has its own uniqueness, that is, it is backed by 80,000 shrines, has more experience in soul identification and monster analysis, and also has some secret techniques.
Presumably before leaving here to go to the ordinary world, the interior of the Shinto Hall was also cleaned, and you can smell a lot of blood inside.
"I see." After getting the information he wanted, Pei Ziyun didn't intend to ask any more questions and reached out to take the document.
The document is written in special silk, and the material, handwriting, and format are quite ancient. However, at the end, there are several seals. One of them is the official seal of the Shinto Agency, and there are also the official seals of the shogunate and the imperial palace. The only difference is the official emperor and The general's order.
It can be said that this matter has something to do with the shogunate, and Bendogawa Jiuxing's expression does not seem to indicate that he knows anything about it.
"The Shinto Agency is theoretically subordinate to the shogunate. After democracy, the government introduced the power of the emperor to balance the power. This overlapping framework seems to be independent of each other. Even Togawa Kuaki does not know. The power of the Shinto Agency is indeed not small."
"It's very interesting just to get the emperor to agree to the canonization."
Thinking of this, Pei Ziyun raised his eyes and looked at the priest who was kneeling in front of him: "What are your plans for the divine genealogy?"
This document says two things.
The first is the reconstruction of the shrine. Jinchuan Shrine is just a shrine that has not been inherited for a long time. The specifications are not high. Both the building area and the shape are very ordinary. Now to upgrade the level, according to Fuso's rules, the corresponding buildings must be raised. level.
Since the Shinto Agency manages shrines in various places, there is no reason for them to only ask for compensation without providing help.
The reconstruction of the shrine and the establishment of the main shrine for Yamada Shinichi are matters that the Shinto Agency needs to worry about. Even when the construction begins, priests need to be appointed to help and supervise.
However, the cost of reconstruction is not low. The total cost is as high as 1.5 billion yen, which cannot be paid by the Shinto Agency.
Another thing is the divine genealogy, which is also the focus of this visit.
The righteous god of Fuso needs to be canonized, otherwise he will be a wild god. This has both advantages and disadvantages for the gods. Generally speaking, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
What does the other side want to gain by throwing out this big bait
Seeing this, Tajima Nanase hesitated: "There is actually something that needs to be discussed about this matter."
Pei Ziyun raised his eyebrows: "Oh?"
Tajima Nanase lowered her head and said seriously: "I wonder, Lord Yamada, do you want to be canonized with your own name?"
Yamada Shinichi
Although Pei Ziyun used this name, it was not just this name. He was not obsessed with this name. He understood the other person's meaning in a blink of an eye and said, "That's not necessary."
As long as the canonization is recognized and recognized as his own, it doesn't matter to Pei Ziyun whether he canonizes "Yamada Shinichi" or not.
Tajima Nanase breathed a sigh of relief: "If this is the case, then the divine genealogy will be much easier."
In reality, no one wants to make a living person a god. This would be a huge impact on the entire Shinto and could easily shake the foundation.
Unexpectedly, although Yamada Shinichi was young, he was very talkative. The stone in Tajima Nanase's heart finally fell to the ground, and her smile became much more sincere.
If you are only willing to use your own name for canonization, there will be many things involved. Even if the top officials of the shogunate and the Shinto Agency reach a consensus, if you want to elevate "Yamada Shinichi" to the throne, you still need to be prepared for counterattacks.
The heretics and resistance forces are still there, and even if they are caught, nothing can be done, but if something can be done easily, no one will like it if there are more twists and turns.
It would be relatively simple if you don't stick to the name "Yamada Shinichi". Although the divine genealogy has been determined now, it is the Takamagahara Emperor God system. As for the gods of the imperial court and the people, experts may not understand them.
Now we only need to arrange a famous scholar who studies theogony, and "accidentally" discovers in the shogunate's archives hundreds of years ago that there was a samurai who was canonized by the general for his merits in slaying demons, and was worshiped at a certain shrine, but his reputation was not spread. Ordinary people don't know.
Nowadays, supernatural phenomena are frequent, and loyal warriors appear again to eliminate demons and serve the people. Today, the emperor was overjoyed when he heard about it and granted him a canonization by the imperial court. The falsehood has become true.
There have been many wars, fires, and insect infestations in the past, and it is impossible for the documents and records to be handed down 100%. Can anyone be sure that this canonization did not exist hundreds of years ago or even longer
No one dares to guarantee it like this, even if they know it is for Yamada Shinichi’s canonization, they can only endure it.
In this way, there will be no shortcomings of creating gods in this world, especially living gods.
For Pei Ziyun, although the previous canonization was fake, with the current canonization of the emperor and general, it has become a regular one, and there is no difference in treatment.
After hearing the priest's explanation, Pei Ziyun smiled secretly: "Isn't this the same trick used by Guan Yu and Mazu to rise to power?"
In the Ming Dynasty, Guan Yu was always worshiped as the "Hanshou Tinghou" and was not granted the title of emperor. The so-called "Three Realms Demon-Suppressing Great Emperor's Divine Might Far Zhen Tian Zun Tianzun Guan Sheng Emperor" was only a private title among the people, and it was not of a high level. The Manchus believed it and always thought that the Wanli Emperor of the Ming Dynasty was appointed emperor and offered sacrifices to the emperor.
It was not until the 33rd year of Qianlong's reign that he discovered the mistake. The sacrifice he had made was a fake, so he corrected the mistake and specially consecrated the God of Loyalty and Righteousness to the God of Wulingyou Guan Sheng and made him an emperor.
The same goes for Mazu. Kangxi did not pay much attention to Mazu and was not even included in the sacrificial ceremony. However, the people dared to spread rumors that Kangxi canonized Mazu as the Queen of Heaven. As the rumors spread, officials, the Ministry of Rites, and Yongzheng all believed that Kangxi had conferred the title of Queen of Heaven on Mazu. They wanted to find out more about this matter. It was only after checking the internal records of Kangxi in the second year of Qianlong's reign that we found out about it, so in the fifty-third year of Qianlong's reign, we had to order the Queen to be included in the sacrificial ceremony, and ordered local officials to offer sacrifices in the spring and autumn.
Understand, everyone understands, it’s all a trick to cheat, but this time it’s the official operation.
"By the way, Mr. Yamada, regarding the reconstruction of the shrine, due to excessive funds, the Shinto Agency is willing to provide you with an interest-free loan. If you are willing, I will arrange it for you when you go back next time." How did Tajima Nanase know Yamada Shinichi's dirty thoughts? , and said respectfully.
Naturally, there is no reason to refuse such good intentions.
"Then please excuse me." Pei Ziyun said with a smile.
After these two matters were discussed, the priest of the Shinto Hall stood up to leave. Pei Ziyun was in a good mood. He stood up and said, "Thank you for your hard work coming from afar. I will take you down the mountain."
After leaving the room, in the courtyard not far away, Yuanzi was talking to Yazi. The two of them had a good atmosphere. Kana looked at the sky and didn't know what she was thinking. As for Togawa Jiuxing, she was very impressed by the flowers, plants and trees in the courtyard. interest.
Hearing the footsteps, several people looked over at the same time. Yaozi immediately abandoned Yuanzi and ran over.
"Let's go, take the guests down the mountain." Pei Ziyun touched Yaozi's head and said, Yaozi said "Hi" and followed obediently.
It was a bit troublesome to go up, but with Pei Ziyun seeing her off, it was much easier to go down the mountain. In a short time, she arrived at the foot of the mountain to see her off. Only Bando Yuanzi was not in a hurry to go back, but took a walk at the foot of the mountain holding a red umbrella.
Looking carefully, Bando Enzi was wearing a kimono instead of a miko uniform. Her eyes turned to Yazi a few more times, and she pursed her lips and smiled: "Yazi has made progress again."
Yuanzi could guess why the priest came to see Pei Ziyun. After all, she was also a god.
But she is a deity canonized by the shogunate, and there is an invisible barrier between her and the Shinto Hall, which is gradually influenced by traditional Shinto. Although it is not thick, it exists.
For this reason, Yuanzi congratulated Pei Ziyun: "After three days of separation, you should look at each other with admiration. Xinyijun, with the emperor's canonization, even Gao Tianyuan will recognize you. With your strength, you can become a great god with important priesthood."
Then he said: "Actually, the shogunate is also grateful for your achievements. What Togawa Jiuxing brought is just official gratitude. There are some things that the shogunate cannot be direct about. If Shinichi-kun still has requests, you can contact me I said." As she spoke, she chuckled, feeling very emotional.
Even though the shogunate tried its best to block the news, people still found out.
It was originally just a canonization of the general, but now it has become a canonization of the emperor and the general, which means that Yamada Shinichi is not just a member of the shogunate.
How will Yamada Shinichi choose his side in the future
Bandō Yuanzi suppressed her emotions and looked at Pei Ziyun with a smile, waiting for his answer.
