In Oda Town, Tansei County, there is a magnificent palace.【】
It is said to be magnificent, but compared to other buildings, their buildings are relatively low. In comparison, this palace appears much taller, and at the same time, it has a very solemn atmosphere.
This is Kenjingu Shrine. It is the second largest shrine in Echizen, second only to the first-ranked Kihijingu Shrine. The main enshrinement of Kehijingu is Igasabetsu, the god of life, and the deputy enshrinement is Nakaai.
The emperor, and the main enshrinement of the Kenjin Palace is the great god Suzhanming, accompanied by the great god Kebi, the Ninja King, and a divine sword forged by the prince of the eleventh emperor Suihito. It is said that the ancient god "
"Su Zhan Ming Zun" has his spirit attached to this divine sword.
This place was called Oda because most of the people here made a living by weaving, so the place name Oda gradually evolved. After that, some people named themselves after the place, and so the Oda clan came into being.
After the construction of Kenjingu Shrine, the Oda family became the priest of Kenjingu Shrine. This special status of the temple gradually allowed the Oda family to have a certain amount of power in the secular world. After that, the Oda family was appreciated by the Echizen guardian Shiba family.
, was promoted to retainer, and later followed the Shiba clan to Owari. After the Shiba clan supported Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, controlled a larger territory, and had more power, he named the Oda clan as the guardian of Owari.
The Oda guardian of this generation is Oda Tsunematsu. Oda Tsunematsu needed to serve his lord, General Shiba Yi, in Kyoto and could not stay in Owari all the time, so he handed Owari over to his younger brother Oda Tsunetake.
Oda Tsunetake became Owari's little guardian.
However, the Oda family did not give up their status as priests in the Sword God Palace because of this. They made their fortune by being the priests of the Sword God Palace. The Sword God Palace is of extremely important significance to the Oda family. Guarding the Sword God Palace allows Ori to
The Tian family has always had a place in the temple community, which will undoubtedly play an extremely important role in the development of their family.
Therefore, the Sword God Palace is still under the protection and worship of the Oda clan. They have always acted as the priests of the Sword God Palace and will never give up this power to the wealthy local clans in Echizen.
At night, there was silence, and the grass made chirping insects, which made it even quieter. Suddenly, there seemed to be some movement in the trees. A group of crows that had been roosting suddenly flew up, causing a moment of commotion. The chirping of insects seemed to stop for a while, and then
He chirped again.
The special New Year's prayers have long since ended. This prayer and sacrificial activity from New Year's Day to the beginning of spring has attracted a large number of believers. The Sword God Palace has been very lively until the prayers are over, and it gradually becomes deserted, but it will soon
It’s time for the Spring Festival on April 29th, and the place will be lively again.
There were several people in the bushes, all dressed in blue robes, with cloth scarves covering their faces, and Japanese swords tied behind their shoulders. They looked very much like ninjas, but when they opened their mouths, they spoke in Chinese.
"Situ Liang, are you familiar with the map?"
"Don't worry, sir! There will be no problem. This is their shrine, a place that is highly respected. Bandits never visit, so the defense is not strict. The priests and guards just patrol once a day as a routine, and after three
By the end of the day, everyone was asleep."
"Okay! Take this fake sword with you. It's not time for them to find out that the divine sword has been swapped. Not only do you have to steal the divine sword they enshrined, you also have to put the fake sword back and restore everything to its original state.
We can't make them do anything strange. Xiao Zhipeng, Cao Lei, you two are responsible for covering. Remember, unless it is absolutely necessary, you must not hurt anyone, let alone let anyone see you, otherwise we will have to change our plan."
"As ordered, don't worry, Mr. Dai!"
The three Metal Gear agents dressed as ninjas agreed, touched the hook ropes on their waists, struck bamboo, drugged them, and quietly escaped forward.
As soon as they entered the Sword God Palace, the three of them lurked forward, taking care of each other, carefully monitoring all the movements around them, gently bypassing the torii gate, and using the cover of buildings and flowers, they reached the Gengshen Palace. The temples supported by the Gengshen Palace
They are three corpse insects. Three corpse insects are a Taoist saying. It is said that there are three corpse insects in every human body. They can record the mistakes made by people and report them to the Emperor of Heaven on Gengshen Day while the person is sleeping.
Therefore, Taoists do not sleep at night on Gengshen day, which is called guarding Gengshen; or they take medicine to kill three insects. Of course, some people are confident that they have never done anything shameful in their lives.
.The people used gentle methods and simply built a temple for the three zombies, offered incense and bribed them, and subdued the insects without fighting. If Xia Xun were here, he would probably think of the three zombies in "The Swordsman"
The brain is magical.
After observing quietly for a while, Xiao Zhipeng made a gesture, and Cao Lei quickly sneaked out for more than ten meters. After observing for a while again, he made another gesture, and Situ Liang immediately took a few steps and crouched under a shrine. The three of them alternated.
, and kept touching the back hall.
Walking along the shrine of worship, a small forest appears on the left. This is a forest enclosed by a wall. There are several buildings such as Chuhun Shrine, Lotus Shrine and Treasure Hall. However, the treasures here are all for the emperor, shogun, and daimyo.
and guardians, as well as the precious objects donated and offered by local wealthy families, excluding the divine swords that were offered as incense, and the divine swords were in the main hall.
The three of them spent more than half an hour and gradually sneaked into the main hall. Xiao Zhipeng and Cao Lei flashed into the darkness of the hall and monitored the surroundings. Situ Liang sneaked into the main hall quietly. The hall was quiet, and the dim light of the evergreen lamp faintly illuminated the hall.
In this scene, on both sides of the palace pillars, curtains with the pattern of the Goddess of Weeda and melon were hung, swaying gently with the breeze.
In the room is enshrined the great god Suzhanming, and on the left and right are the great god Qibi and the Ninja Bear King. On the high place of the sacred table in front of the three gods, there is an ebony sword rest, and a long sword lies quietly across the sword rest.
The incense table is wide and long, and cannot be reached by anyone. It is filled with various offerings, as well as purses for prayers, etc. It is very messy. If you touch it, it is difficult to say that it will not be useful to you every day.
After cleaning and worshiping, the priest noticed that Situ Liang looked around, took out the hook rope, turned his wrist and threw it upwards, and hooked it to the roof of the temple with a "pop" sound. He didn't know whether it was the beam or the dust. He gave it a tentative tug.
, able to bear his weight, he ran forward and jumped up with the help of the hook rope.
Situ Liang hung his whole body above the sword holder, gently took off the divine sword, and placed the fake one he brought on top. He looked at it carefully and confirmed that there was nothing unusual before inserting the divine sword into it.
He got back on his back, swung a few times and left the divine case, turned over and jumped to the ground, retracted the hook rope with a flick of his wrist, and quietly exited the temple.
Half an hour later, there was another commotion of birds in the bushes on the west side of the Jian Shen Palace, and then it was silent. The evergreen lamp still illuminated the entire palace quietly. At the fourth watch, a god
The attendant came in, added some oil to the eternal lamp, walked out of the temple without noticing anything, yawned, and went back to sleep...

I couldn't leave Hangzhou, but half of my stay was in this lake.
West Lake is undoubtedly the biggest asset that makes Hangzhou a paradise on earth. In spring, summer, autumn and winter, West Lake has its own beauty. In frost, rain and snow, West Lake also has its own beauty. During the day and night, her style is also different, like a peerless world.
Beauty, a different set of clothes and a different hairstyle can give you different feelings, either charming, delicate, pretty, or graceful...
The scenery of the three islands in the lake that we see in later generations was rebuilt in the Ming and Qing dynasties. The scenery before was very different. The largest Xiaoyingzhou, which is also known as Santan Mirroring the Moon, is because there are three bottle-shaped stone towers built in the nearby lake.
It is called Santan, but it was destroyed by war in the early Ming Dynasty and has not been rebuilt at this time. On the island at night, you can see the light of the lake, the moonlight, and the lights, but it is rare to see the scenery of Santan.
At night, the distant mountains overlap and the waves are as flat as mirrors. Lanterns hang high on the island, and pavilions sing and dance endlessly.
Tonight, Fei Fu hosted a banquet for Xia Xun, and all the officials from the Zhejiang Chief Envoy Department, the Imperial Envoy Department, and the Command Envoy Department also came. The style of today's banquet was completely Japanese-style, with everyone sitting cross-legged.
Behind the shorter ones, the dancers singing and dancing in front were also women. They were holding wandan fans and dancing very hard and successfully. They all looked very patient.
After Xia Xun arrived here, as soon as he heard that the food, singing and dancing were all Japanese-style, he immediately spoke out and told Fei Fu that he could enjoy the singing and dancing, but he should try to dress up to suit the original aesthetics, and don't put it all on his face.
White powder, otherwise it would be very late at night and I would panic when I see it under the lamp, fearing that it will affect my sleep when I go back.
Dancers like to paint their faces extremely white when dancing. White powder is sold in large quantities. The original white powder contained a large amount of lead, so that many girls who pursued beauty died miserably due to lead poisoning at a young age.
It was a big sacrifice, but that kind of beauty Xia Xun couldn't accept it, so she naturally had to explain it in advance. Feifu agreed wholeheartedly, so these dancers all wore original peach blossom makeup. Under the lamp, they were very beautiful, which was not unbearable.
See you.
The food and drinks are all Japanese-style, and even the wine is sake. The sake is brewed based on the brewing method of Chinese yellow rice wine. This is the south, and most officials are accustomed to drinking rice wine, so they are not against it. The banquet is quite harmonious.
Happy.
The fat man leaned back and said to Xia Xun attentively: "Your Excellency, are you satisfied with the food, singing and dancing?"
Xia Xun nodded slightly: "Yes, whether it is food or singing and dancing, the flavor is very unique."
Feifu laughed heartily: "Your Excellency, you have given me the reward. I brought these dancers and chefs here specially. In order to thank you for your efforts in promoting tomorrow's trade, I would like to give them to you as a gift to express my gratitude.
I hope you won’t dislike it.”
When Xia Xun heard this, he waved his hands quickly and said: "No, no, no, just taste it occasionally. The rich and powerful in Beijing are very interested in your country's food and beauties. If Mr. Fatty wants to like them, he can give them more as gifts."
Better. Don’t worry, I have always supported open trade. This time Mr. Feifu goes to the capital, I will go with you to try to finalize everything as soon as possible."
Feifu tried his best to flatter him. He had been waiting for these words. He was overjoyed and bowed hurriedly.
After a while, while Fei Fu got up to go to his convenience, Si Hanchao whispered to Xia Xun quietly: "Bu Tang is an envoy from a small foreign country and is a businessman. Sir Bu Tang has put aside the matter of suppressing the Japanese and personally accompanied him back to the capital."
, is that too much praise for him?"
Xia Xun said: "What I want to do is also to suppress the Japanese, and not just to suppress the Japanese. The first is to attack the enemy, the second is to attack the enemy, the second is to attack the army, and the third is to attack the city. It can be solved without bloodshed, and it is a big deal.
There are benefits to be gained, why not do it? How many great things can you do in a lifetime? How many big things can you do in a lifetime? What is the air? It is just a matter of seizing the day."
He picked up a piece of sashimi, dipped it in the mustard, and said with a smile to Si Hanchao: "We have to learn from others, they are very anxious when doing things! Look, this fish can't wait for it to be cooked, so it's served
Come up."
