"Ha?! Grabbing honey? What kind of honey? From the back mountain?"

"No, although Little Amber is in the early stages of foundation building, she has the command of the entire bee colony, and the royal jelly is well protected."

Ping Yaren frowned.

"Xiaohu, you mean they tried to sneak into the back mountain?"

"Well, they seemed to want to capture Little Amber directly, but because King Kong and I arrived in time, they gave up this plan and asked everyone to pay tribute to them with the honey in their hands."

"Um???

Are they really Shinto personnel? Which god do they belong to?"

Don't blame him for suspecting that this is a bunch of swindlers. He really finds it unbelievable that since the spiritual seed honey in Laiyu Town is not brewed from a single pollen, it cannot be sold at a high price. The ordinary grade is just a light luxury product.

In addition, it is produced locally in Japan and is protected by policies. Both transportation costs and taxes are not high, so the price has always been very close to the people.

Even for an ordinary student, distributing flyers for a month is almost enough to buy a bottle of ordinary spiritual seed honey with spiritual energy.

If these guys were really priests and witches, they wouldn't even be willing to pay this little money and would go to Laiyu Town to squeeze them, right?

You know, the traffic in Laiyu Town has not been fully completed. A larger asphalt road was only completed some time ago, and the street lights have not yet been powered on.

From this road, you can understand how poor Laiyu Town really is. Even though the establishment of Spirit Seed Honey and Flower Garden Hotel has created a wave of tax revenue in recent years, the mayor of the town has only built a qualified road.

Don't be surprised, the profit is so small, not all the pure profits of the entire honey industry are in the hands of the townspeople.

Glass bottles that can store spiritual energy, sales channels, and brand establishment all cost money.

Although the money is not coming in as fast as expected, it is undeniable that Lingzhong Honey is indeed the hope of Laiyu Town. Without Lingzhong Honey, everyone's income will be deprived of a large part.

Under such circumstances, these Shinto people still want to cut leeks. Is it possible that the god behind them is the God of Poverty?

"Their identities as mikos and priests are true. They are priests of Ise Shrine and believe in Amaterasu."

"ha?!"

Ise Jingu Shrine? How could they... ugh.

He remembered...

During this year's Snake Sea Incident in Tottori Prefecture, in the command center of the Snake Sea Front, in order for the Emperor to come forward to sort out the big forces and fully support him in entering the Ushiki Valley, he said, "I can consider serving as the god of Ise Jingu Shrine."

The phrase "the priestess's position as the main priest of the festival".

The Kamijo Matsuri is the most important ritual among all the regular festivals at Ise Shrine. Even the New Year Festival in February, which is before the New Year, is not as important as it to pray to the gods for a good harvest.

Because the Kannada Festival is a festival held to commemorate the migration of Amaterasu and the gods from Heiankyo to Ise, it is a symbol of divine power not to interfere with the royal power. It is also the only opportunity in a year for the emperor to face Amaterasu directly.

As mentioned before, the Genji was just a relative. After the emperor's descendants were massacred and exterminated by foreign enemies, the Heira clan fought for six years before occupying the throne of the emperor.

The hardships involved cannot be explained to outsiders, but to put it bluntly, it is ultimately because of the wrong position.

Therefore, after Genji came to power and unified the world, the emperor would find a way to meet with Amaterasu every year, and beg the god to give Genji his approval, so that all Genji's demon-repelling power could evolve into the demon-repelling light.

Kamijosai is the most reliable method among many, because one of the procedures in the sacrificial ceremony is for the emperor to send an emissary to the shrine to present to Amaterasu the rice cultivated by the emperor himself and five-color silk and cloth called kinbo.

.

This process happened about three hundred years ago. At that time, the emperor changed the sending of envoys to deliver the gift himself. This was the first time Genji saw the figure of Amaterasu.

But over the past three hundred years, I have only seen it. Each generation of emperors has tried their best to ask for Amaterasu's approval, but no one has successfully received a response.

Now that Genji has given birth to a son who has attracted the attention of Amaterasu, if he can perform Kagura dance at the Kamijo Festival, will Amaterasu be happy and give his approval?

The emperor had to pay attention.

"Oh, it's still my fault. How is the situation in the town? How much honey have they taken from everyone?"

"Hey, I didn't let them succeed. Before they were going to hold a ceremony to forcibly change Laiyu Town's beliefs and make everyone have to hand over their finances, Yugui used wind magic to record all their plans, and I made them public.

Come to the chat group in Yuzhen.

Now they can be said to be beaten by everyone, and no one wants to help them. The uncle who originally provided them with accommodation kicked them out of the B&B on the pretext of going out to visit relatives.

And every time they were preparing to decorate the altar, Yugui and I would use the excuse of ‘this is Laiyu Town land, and outsiders are not allowed to build any buildings without permission’ and drive them away.”

"But Master, there has been no response to the letters of assistance we sent to Inari Shrine and the Extraordinary Countermeasures Bureau in your name. I'm worried..."

Ping Yaren smiled and reached out to touch the soft hair of the little tengu.

"Xiao Yugui still does things properly, unlike Xiao Hu who only uses force to destroy things.

It's normal to have no response. If they didn't have some means, the people at Ise Shrine wouldn't be so arrogant. I guess they are forcing Inari Shrine and Sengen Taisha Shrine to let Laiyu Shrine change the main deity.

I probably guessed what they were thinking, it was just that they were interested in this piece of land that I had been sorting out for several years, and 'my' ownership.

Whether it's asking me to go down the mountain to meet them or the need for royal jelly, it's just a test."

After a pause, he asked.

"By the way, Xiaohu, has anyone paid tribute to them?"

"Yes, but everyone didn't understand it at first, and because of their belief in Amaterasu, they paid tribute without precaution.

Now they know who are spreading the faith of Ise Shrine in the name of paying tribute, and want to expel the faith of Lord Inari and Lord Asama. They looked at the certificate of permission to pay tribute to Ise Shrine at home,

I was so angry that I wanted to tear it apart but didn’t dare to.”

"That's fine, you go to the mayor now and tell him that he must communicate with everyone.

This opening cannot continue, otherwise the entire Laiyu Town will become a free tool for Ise Shrine, and it will even be poorer than before in the future."

Goda Hu was very excited. Although he was young and forgetful, he still remembered that his sister once planned to marry a middle-aged boss in the city in order to provide subsidies for the family.

Poverty is the original sin. After living a good life, he naturally does not want to see his sister silently wiping tears in the middle of the night.

"I'll go right away."

"Well, we also ask the grandparents in the old people's home to close the doors and windows and not come out."

"receive!"

Then he took out his cell phone and posted an announcement in the Laiyu Town chat group, asking all working townspeople to return home within half an hour and close their doors and windows, especially the Flower Garden Hotel.

Then, he took out a three-piece giant cannon with a barrel as thick as a leg.

"Yuki, where do those priests and shrine maidens from Ise Shrine live now?"

The two little witches on the side almost stayed. For the ship girls, caliber is justice and range is truth. The beauty of the three cannons instantly captured their hearts. For Ping Yaren, who looks like

The favorability of the young master is gradually rising.

Originally, Kongou and Hiei looked down upon the young Pingya. He was just a foundation-builder, and he was not good enough for the two of them.

Now it seems that the strength of this little master is not as simple as it seems. From their perspective as ship girls, this giant cannon could be launched three seconds ago, but now it is still charging up. It is so strong!

"They are tired of being harassed by Ahu, and now they are camping over Xiaoyu Mountain."

Xiaoyu Mountain is the second highest mountain in this area after Luoyu Mountain. In winter, the wind blows towards the town from there.

"...Have you two noticed that more people are sick in the town?"

"Brother, are you saying they poisoned you?"

"Have to guard against it."

Yugui thought for a while.

"The small clinics in the town are as empty as ever, and I don't think they dare.

Not to mention that there are purification barriers and golden cicadas in the town, Brother Masato, and ordinary toxins are completely useless.

If they really dare to use such despicable tricks..."

Yugui pulled open his collar, revealing his small shoulders.

"My dad and uncles will be here soon!"

Pingya was shocked.

"You hid it deeply enough."

"Hehe~"

As time went by, Goda Tiger also returned to the shrine, and the energy fluctuations of the three cannons became more and more terrifying.

The little tengu looked at Ping Yaren who was drinking tea and looking in the mirror, but hesitated to speak.

"Brother Yaren..."

"Don't worry, my divination skills are pretty good. The chance will come in five minutes."

"But such a big movement..."

Pingya raised the corner of her mouth and patted her waist, where a gorgeous dragon-patterned gourd appeared, shiny and shiny.

"Don't worry, they can't see anything now."

…

The strange behavior of Laiyu Town was quickly discovered by the people of Ise Shrine. Although they were not sure what was going on, the invisible awe-inspiring feeling also shocked them, so they hurried to the central tent.

What looks like a tent is actually the personal protective weapon of the person in charge of this trip, Saio Shaoguji, who is blessed by divine power.
