Just when Takagi Wataru and Sato Miwako were both a little embarrassed, a voice suddenly sounded.
"Judging from the documentary records, the ancient Onmyoji probably did not possess this kind of power, even the Abe Seimei you just mentioned."
Sato Miwako and Takagi Wataru looked at the speaker and recognized at a glance that the person in front of them was Inspector Matsumoto's superior, Inspector Odagiri, and they both saluted quickly.
Odagiri Toshiro waved his hand to stop him and continued: "Take the Heian period's legal system as an example and compare Onmyodo and Shintoism, and you will find..."
"From a status perspective, the Onmyoji at that time worked in the central government system and were affiliated with the Yin-Yang Liao, which in turn was under the Ministry of Central Affairs. In order of rank, they were Zuobianguan and Taizhenguan."
"However, the Shinto religious institution that is at the same time as Onmyodo, the Divine Official, is parallel to the Taizhenguan. Obviously, in terms of official status, Shinto priests are higher than Onmyoji."
"Looking at their origins, Onmyojis are basically from ordinary nobles, while those who can work as divine officials are mostly relatives of the emperor. The difference is not small."
"Functionally speaking, the responsibilities of Onmyoji at that time were more similar to those of today's scientists. They were in charge of astronomical calendars, etc. They were also good at divination of good and bad luck, and elimination of disasters and prayers. The existence of Shintoism was more to counter the expansion of Buddhism.
At that time, it was basically an obligation for all citizens to believe in Shintoism.”
"From the perspective of religious worship, Shintoism calls any extraordinary existence that is different from ordinary people a god, regardless of good or evil, good or evil. Yin and Yang Taoism inherits more from Taoism, ranging from the three officials of heaven, earth, water, the emperor, Taishang Laojun, and
Up to the Lord of the Earth, they are all within the scope of worship, and the main god is the Lord of Mount Tai, that is, Emperor Dongyue."
"Onmyodo and Shinto have had a lot of exchanges in history. Nowadays, the lottery in the shrine, the twelve zodiac amulets, and the dolls for Girls' Festival are all learned from Onmyodo. The current registered name of Onmyodo is Tianshe
Tsuchimikamon Shinto, both the architecture and the clergy are completely consistent with the shrine."
Odagiri Toshiro paused after saying this, then frowned at the scene of "devils dancing" at the funeral, and continued:
"Onmyodo has declined now, and we know very little about it, but Shintoism has always been prosperous. There are shrines everywhere in Japan. Judging from the records I just mentioned, if the Onmyoji of Onmyodo are all
With such powerful power as Master Hanyu..."
"Then there is no reason why Shinto, which is more powerful than Onmyodo in ancient and modern times, has never had a presence like Master Hanyu."
"Of course, I only had a brief understanding of it before coming here, so it may not be very accurate."
Sato Miwako and Takagi Wataru looked at each other, a little embarrassed. Their bosses had done their homework carefully in advance, but their subordinates didn't know anything about it.
As the chief inspector of the Metropolitan Police Department, Odagiri Toshiro is actually more concerned about the hidden dangers brought about by Hanyu Kiyoyasu's power.
How many people are there who have this kind of power? Will they have a huge impact on the existing society, or even... destroy it?
There are so many bizarre deaths every year but the truth cannot be found. Are they related to mysterious forces?
All these issues must be considered and faced by him in this position. Therefore, after learning about these things, he immediately obtained the information to confirm the credibility, and then began to study the special Onmyoji.
exist.
But after delving into old papers for several days and privately consulting experts and scholars, I found out that those legends and records were full of holes and looked more like lies.
For example... Abe Seimei is afraid that his wife will be frightened by the shikigami, so he usually seals the shikigami under the Su Bridge, and ordinary people cannot see the shikigami...
Odagiri Toshiro looked at the monsters on the scene with different shapes, but each had some indescribable charm, and frowned deeply. Is the legend of Abe Seimei true? Isn't it a lie? Or maybe only Master Hanyu is the one.
The real and only Onmyodo genius?
Odagiri Toshiro is unknown, but with his position he has been able to have some access to some secrets that ordinary people cannot touch. There are indeed many things in this world that are beyond human imagination and cognition.
For example, the Federation's research on extraterrestrials has never ceased, and just taking out a copy of relevant top-secret documents can subvert ordinary people's inherent understanding of the world.
The ability displayed by Master Hanyu cannot be explained by currently proven scientific principles. It is no problem to say that it is supernatural power and mysterious side. Of course, if it must be said, it may be alien technology...
Odagiri Toshiro's mood at this time is similar to that of Kuroda Hei. There is always a feeling that a storm is coming. He hopes that the current calm can be maintained for a longer time.
Seeing the change in Minister Odagiri's expression, Sato Miwako and Takagi Wataru stood aside, so overwhelmed by his aura that they did not dare to express themselves, and they frequently communicated with their eyes.
At this moment, Hanyu Qing'an on the stage made another move. After he arranged for the one-eyed monk to chant sutras, he sat on the side of the wooden stage.
Suzuki Sonoko came dressed in a white miko costume, opened the wooden box she brought with her, took out teapot, teacup, charcoal, small stove and other things, and began to perform the tea ceremony.
Suzuki Sonoko hasn't learned for a long time, so her movements are obviously a little stiff, which makes her a little more nervous. Hanyu Qing'an's lips moved slightly and he comforted softly:
"Relax, it doesn't matter if you make a mistake. People won't pay too much attention to you. Just treat everyone below you as a big carrot."
Suzuki Sonoko almost laughed out loud because of him, and gave him an annoyed look. How could she be nervous because of such a small scene? It was obviously because of him that she was nervous...
A rare opportunity to show off one's feminine power, the good atmosphere was ruined.
Hanyu Qing'an didn't know much about Suzuki Sonoko. He just remembered that she was Mao Lilan's best friend and her family seemed to be in a good position. Last time he sent her home, he did find that she lived in a wealthy area, but he didn't have a clear idea.
.
If you really want to do the math, Mouri Kogoro is also a very rich man. His ancestral three-story detached house in the Mihua District is worth hundreds of millions of yen.
After all, if the Rice Flower District corresponds to it, it is equivalent to the Minato District of Tokyo in the original world. Ambassadors from various countries live here, and the ceiling of land prices in Japan is high.
Thinking about it, he has been busy for more than half a month and has earned more than 100 million. This still has unique advantages. Hanyu Qing'an, who was originally a little satisfied, felt that there was still a long way to go. He also wanted to build his own shrine.
If you want to buy a piece of land in Mihua District and build a shrine of your own, you will probably have to work for a long time, and if you want to buy a large area of land in Mihua District, you may not have enough money. Fortunately, you now have "connections"
Already.
Out of the corner of his eye, Hanyu Kiyosu glanced at a high-ranking police officer in the audience, and the carrots in his eyes turned into fine leeks.
