The process of the ceremony was very routine for Lu Jian.
After a routine, Kohaku, who was wearing gorgeous clothes, left under the leadership of the old shrine maidens and entered the main temple courtyard where the Shenzi Pavilion is located.
Lu Jian saw that the long ladder was set up, and the witches brought Amber into the Shenzi Pavilion. After a while, the witches left, leaving only the Shenzi Pavilion hanging alone in the air.
In the long silence, Lu Tan felt that something was entangled in that attic, Shenying and Shenzi Pavilion, and there was a vague connection between the two.
The next moment, the pure fire ignited.
Lu Tan had previously thought that the Son of God's pure fire was dazzling enough, but Amber's pure fire was far more powerful than before.
For a moment, the whole world turned into black and white, and even the noon sun could not compete with the light of amber.
In the dazzling pure fire, colorful black began to flow and enveloped the Shenzi Pavilion.
Lu Tan seemed to hear Amber's voice, his heart palpitated slightly, and he remembered some scenes.
For example, in the dojo under the moonlight, a girl holding a long bow shoots an arrow from the string.
For example, there is a scene of a girl looking forward to the sailors fighting through the window on the ship.
For example, the sleeping face of a girl sleeping peacefully with her body in her arms while floating on the lonely sea.
For example, the smile of a girl wearing plain clothes expresses her longing and longing for future life.
For example, in front of your house, you see the back of a girl who looks up and says that the moonlight is so beautiful.
The surrounding light gradually dimmed, and everyone regained their sight.
After a moment of silence, people began to cheer.
They celebrated the arrival of the new Son of God, the arrival of the next era, and were happy that the island could continue to exist.
Lu Jian saw the host of the ceremony holding up a sign with the name of the era after Kohaku became the Son of God.
Chunhe.
The spring is beautiful and the sun is shining, it is indeed a beautiful day.
The flames in Shenzi Pavilion gradually extinguished and everything returned to normal.
In Lu Jian's field of vision, the falling cherry blossoms formed the cold and indifferent text of the system.
[Task requirement: Escort the shrine maiden to Wajima Taisha Shrine 1/1]
[Task requirement: Witness the birth of the new officiating witch 1/1]
[Task requirement: Find and kill the invading enemy Chosen One 2/2]
[The task has been completed]
【Do you choose to return?】
【whether】
At the bottom, there is a countdown timer.
Lu Jian can only stay in this world for one day at most.
He did not choose to return immediately, but returned to his courtyard.
"I'm still a little worried."
Lu Tan glanced at Zi Ge.
I wonder if Amber would feel scared if she was alone in there.
According to the cold miko lady, Kohaku needs to stay at Shenzi Pavilion for at least one day and one night to allow Jinghuo to fully accept her.
It must have been a very painful process.
In the evening, while eating, Lu Tan told the cold miko lady about his plans to leave.
"You want to leave?"
The witch felt a little weird.
Lu Jian should now be the most valued person of the new Son of God. He is very powerful, so he must be a powerful figure.
Would such a person give up all his power and continue to be a ronin?
"Yes, just like she belongs here, I still don't belong here."
Lu Tan pointed to the Shenzi Pavilion in the distance.
"Oh well."
The miko lady looks a little melancholy.
"Tomorrow should be the naming ceremony of the child. She will officially become the shrine maiden. I applied to the seniors and I will guide her. I also want to invite you to participate."
The miko lady said again.
"That's great."
Lu Tan clapped his hands.
Although this cold little miko looks unkind, she is still quite good at heart and is serious and responsible. If the little girl follows her, she will definitely grow into an outstanding miko.
"By the way, what did you name her?"
Lu Tan asked casually. Although he probably wouldn't tell him this kind of thing if he knew it, he was still a little curious.
"She is from Chang Maple Island, so the meaning of maple leaves gave her name."
The miko lady did not shy away, but answered directly.
"It's called Hongye."
Clang——
The chopsticks in Lu Tan's hand fell to the table, making the miko lady a little confused.
"What's wrong?"
she asked.
"No, it's nothing."
Lu Tan picked up the chopsticks.
He hesitated to speak.
Indeed, Hongye mentioned that when she was a child, her family was attacked by filth, and it was Shenzi's pure fire that saved her, but Lu Tiao did not expect that she would be this little girl.
If she had not completed this task, then she might not have brought filth to Chang Maple Island where Hong Ye is located. Naturally, she would not have lost her parents. She might have grown up there as a fisherman's daughter and lived an ordinary life.
However, now Lu Kan has completely changed the trajectory of her life.
If there are no accidents, Hongye will grow up in Wajima Grand Shrine and become a candidate shrine maiden for the Son of God. Later, he will go to Utashima to investigate the pollution incident, and finally experience the cruel things Lu Kan saw in the hairpin and become a disaster shrine maiden.
.
Hong Ye’s future is Lu Kanzao’s past.
Although I don’t know how the time paradox in the Quiet Place is calculated, what Lu Jian is doing now has formed a closed loop on Hong Ye’s fate.
The state of the red leaves he observed has been fixed, which is the inevitable end of fate.
No matter what Lu Jian does, it will not change Hongye's ending.
Just like the crystallization of her legacy has been buried in the soil of the sacred cherry blossoms, the little red leaf will eventually become the woman Lu Tian met.
"Let her not have to practice so hard, not be obsessed with saving the world, and live her life peacefully."
Lu Jian said.
The cold miko lady was a little confused and didn't know why Lu Jian said this.
After dinner, as Amber said, the moonlight was very good.
The clear moonlight shone through the falling cherry blossoms and fell to the ground, like a line of white frost. Lu Jian sat in the room. The red leaves made him feel that this journey was not that simple.
Walking into the courtyard, Lu Tan stared at the bright moon and suddenly felt like there was someone behind him.
He turned his head and saw the black-haired miko with cherry eyes standing in the yard.
"Who are you anyway?"
Lu Tan asked.
The other party didn't say anything, but turned around and walked out of the yard. When he was at the door, he stopped and looked back at Lu Jian, as if asking him to follow.
Lu Tan followed.
The two of them walked one behind the other, shuttling between the quiet torii gates.
Lu Jian found that the road looked familiar.
Soon, he arrived at his destination.
The main shrine of Washima Taisha Shrine.
In the courtyard stands the Shenzi Pavilion.
The amber is right there.
The miko disappeared, leaving only the garrisoned miko standing at the entrance of the courtyard.
Lu Tan looked at the attic again.
He took out the [Twisted Mask of Pain] and put it on his face.
Transforming into smoke, Lu Tiao dived into the moonlight and soared towards the Shenzi Pavilion.
