Chapter Thirteen Izanamis Festival

"...By the way, Miss, how is she doing recently?" Yuan Zhisheng suddenly asked.

"Miss, she has been staying in her room." Crow scratched his head and replied inexplicably, "She is reading quietly in her room..."

Hearing the condition of Eriki, Minamoto Zhisheng not only did not breathe a sigh of relief, but instead frowned even more.

Yes, ever since Hui-Eri suddenly disappeared from her room last time, she suddenly reappeared in her room, but every now and then she seemed to be a completely different person...

On weekdays...

Eri, who used to play games secretly, make some small moves in meetings, and like those small toys, would sometimes read quietly with a profound classic, and did not continue to try to leave home.

Run away.

...If the DNA hadn't been compared during the physical examination, and Eri Yi's bloodline was there, Minamoto would have even doubted whether Eri Yi had been tricked.

The current Eriyi...sometimes is simply very strange to him.

Although the original Eri was unable to speak and had an innocent personality, like a little girl, very simple, she would still express her potential dependence from time to time when facing him.

but now……

The situation is very different. Sometimes when Eri meets him now, she will express the emotions of a younger sister towards her brother in a very standard way. Every move is very standard, and she plays the role perfectly.

Role.

Then from time to time, he would suddenly return to his previous state, his innocence. He would also ask him for the game console in a roundabout way...

It makes people wonder if they are schizophrenic...

What happened to Eriki?

Minamoto's heart was filled with doubts, but he had no way of knowing what exactly caused Eriki's condition.

All the changes in Eriki happened since that time when she disappeared... When she came back again, great changes took place. During the period of sudden disappearance... what exactly happened to Eriki?

From the perspective of his brother, Yuan Zhisheng wanted to find out what happened to his sister? Is this change good or bad?

But for the Sheki Hachi family, having a more calm and steady head of the Uesugi family - instead of the little girl who didn't understand anything - is actually a good thing.

Moreover, Eri's own bloodline is still there, and she is still an important guarantee for the Sheki Hachi family. No matter how much her personality has changed, as long as Eri is still in the Sheki hachi family, it is within the scope of their control.

, it doesn’t matter much.

maybe……

This incident is related to the miraculous magician who suddenly appeared.

An idea suddenly came to Yuan Zhisheng's mind.

But then this idea was rejected by him.

Because Eri has been staying at the headquarters, her every move is actually under the eyes of many people. Even if she tried to run away from home, she wouldn't be able to go far. Eri has no chance to come into contact with the Miracle Magician.

Although the whereabouts of the Miracle Magician have always been mysterious and difficult to figure out, Minamoto still believed in Kaguya's ability. If the Miracle Magician appeared inside Genji Heavy Industries, it would be impossible not to be discovered.

But his intuition kept reminding him that this matter definitely had something to do with the magician.

This is the intuition from my brother!

Because the time when the magician reappeared in front of the world and the time when Eri disappeared were an amazing coincidence... Tell him directly that there must be some connection between the two.

Not to mention...according to rumors, the one who recently followed the comeback Miracle Magician was a girl with dark red hair.

Listening to the description...she looks very much like his sister.

But...Eri Yi has been in the headquarters since she disappeared and has never been out again.

Thinking of Eriyi, Yuan Zhisheng had a lot of thoughts for a moment.

No matter what, no matter what she went through, she was still his favorite sister. No matter why, he would never allow his sister to be hurt.

He has already lost it once, and he doesn't want to lose it a second time...

So, no matter what, he had to figure out the whole story. He had to know how and why his sister disappeared suddenly.

Does it have anything to do with that magician?

This puzzle can only be solved by him personally going to the mysterious magician.

…………

At this moment, Kanagawa is in darkness.

Kanagawa is a place with a long history in Japan. It is one of the first-level administrative regions in Japan. It is part of the Tokyo Metropolitan Area, one of Japan's three major metropolitan areas, and belongs to the Kanto region in Japan.

Kamakura, known as the historical ancient capital like Nara and Kyoto, has many places of interest.

In ancient times, the Shonan coast and the Sagami River plain basin were very prosperous with Sagami Province as the center. In the Musashi Province area, which occupies most of the current Kawasaki City and Yokohama City, centered along the ancient Tokaido and Tokyo Bay coast, a small-scale agricultural industry was formed.

Fishing village. Yokohama Port was opened at the end of the Tokugawa period, and it began to develop vigorously around the coast of Tokyo Bay after entering the Meiji era.

It is also a famous tourist check-in city. Kanagawa Prefecture is located in the southwest of the Tokyo metropolitan area, leading the continuous development of Japan's economy. It is a vibrant place with rich natural environment and tourism resources.

Yokohama City, the administrative and economic center of Kanagawa Prefecture, is also a very famous port city. The coast of Somo Bay is covered with bathing beaches and seaside parks, making it a famous tourist attraction. The Hakone area forms an important part of Fuji Hakone Izu Park.

, is Japan's famous hot spring hometown, with unique scenery, beautiful scenery and overflowing hot springs. It is a world-recognized international tourist destination.

The tour group from Kassel College has also arrived here at this moment. They are all traveling, so of course they must choose a famous tourist destination to check in.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! There is a square in a port city near the ocean. There is a lot of people in the square. Almost all of them are crowded. It is crowded and lively.

Right in front of the square, there is a circular stage, and a huge red lantern hangs above the stage. Under the illumination of the lantern, it emits a pale yellow light, making the square more gorgeous and beautiful.

From time to time, brilliant fireworks exploded over the square.

A group of boys and girls in kimonos, holding guitars or drumsticks, danced in the center of the square. Behind them were women in kimonos. They sang and danced gracefully.

"Is there some kind of festival being held here?" Lu Mingfei looked at the lively scene in front of him with some curiosity.

Although it was his first time traveling to Japan, as an out-and-out otaku, he certainly knew a lot about Japan, the birthplace of otaku culture.

For an old otaku who watches anime, of course he is no stranger to festivals that often appear in anime. If there is any scene that is the most common in campus animations, summer festivals definitely have a place. Yukata, temple fairs and fireworks

It is an important part of the festival.

This was the first time he saw a Japanese festival with his own eyes.

Japan is a country that loves festivals very much. "Festival" is one of the most important traditional activities in Japan and an important part of Japanese traditional culture. "Festival" reflects many cultural elements of Japan and displays Japanese culture.

The original festival originated from the worship of gods and had religious overtones. For example, the Gion Festival in Kyoto is the largest and most famous festival in Japan. It has a strong cultural atmosphere and is very representative.

The Gion Festival originated during the Zhenguan period of Emperor Seiwa in the Heian period. At that time, Japan's population increased rapidly and a plague broke out, killing many people. Due to insufficient medical knowledge, people at that time attributed the disease to resentment. In order to appease the resentful spirits, people held

The Yasaka Shrine holds a spirit gathering to pray for blessings and eliminate disasters. In the early days, the Gion spirit gathering was only held when there was an epidemic. It was not until 970 AD that it became an annual event and became popular among the public. The Gion Festival was once known as the "Onin Festival"

"Rebellion" was suspended for more than 20 years and was not resumed until the fifth year of Meiying (1496 AD). After that, the Gion Festival began to break away from the official color and became more and more folk and commercial.

With the stability of Japanese society and the surplus of productivity, people are no longer simply busy in production activities but looking for more entertainment methods, and the public gradually participates in festivals.

Festivals have gradually become popular among the people, and various small festivals have appeared. Some are to worship traditional gods, and some are to pray for blessings and ward off disasters like the Gion Festival.

At this time, the festival in front of Lu Mingfei was equally lively. The cries of vendors and the laughter of children were mixed together. At this moment, everyone relaxed and immersed themselves in the joyful atmosphere of the festival, enjoying this moment.

At this moment, more brilliant lights bloomed on the stage, grabbing everyone's attention.

"What kind of festival are they doing? It looks very lively..." Old Tang rested his messy head on Lu Mingfei's shoulder and looked at the stage not far away.

"Should we go take a look?"

Lu Mingfei looked at the guy in front of him speechlessly, his eyes full of fun. This was still a dragon king, which was really surprising.

"Speaking of which... what are you performing?" Old Tang asked enthusiastically.

Lu Mingfei watched the white-painted actors on the stage take the stage one after another. They were all male, plus those exquisite stage props. The audience faced the direction of the stage, and a walkway extended from the left side of the stage through the auditorium to the audience.

There is a special backstage exit behind the seats. This walkway is called the "Flower Path", and the backstage connected to the "Flower Path" is called the "Bird House". The middle part of the stage looks like it can rotate.

The main actors walked the "flower path" on and off the stage, the narration chanter sat in the right corner of the stage, and the band was hidden in the attic on the side of the stage, playing shamisen, taiko drums and flutes.

I quickly figured out what kind of performance this was.

It's Kabuki. Kabuki is Japan's most famous traditional drama form with the largest stage. Kabuki does not have the long singing sections in Western operas and Chinese operas. It is neither a singing drama nor a pure drama, but a kind of belt.

A drama with musical interludes and narration that uses a special pronunciation method to speak. The actor's speaking method is similar to Peking Opera's recitation, and the words are pronounced with a certain accent.

Modern kabuki is characterized by exquisite scenery, complex stage mechanisms, gorgeous costumes and makeup, and the actors are all male.

"It seems to be some kind of traditional play, and I don't know much about it." Lu Mingfei explained to Old Tang.

He turned his head and looked towards the stage.

[At the beginning of the formation of the universe, heaven and earth appeared first, and the eight creation gods were born in Japan. God Izanagi and God Izanami were responsible for fixing the earth and creating Japan. After the union of the two, eight children were born, namely

There are eight islands, so Japan was also called the Great Eight Islands in ancient times.]

[After giving birth to the land, the two gods gave birth to gods, respectively in charge of rivers, oceans, mountains, wilderness, wind, and trees. When giving birth to the God of Fire, God Izanami was burned and became bedridden, and soon died of illness.]

[After the death of God Izanami, the God of Life Izanami was very sad. He drew his sword to kill the God of Fire and then chased him all the way to the Underworld, hoping to take his wife back. 】

[In front of the main hall of Huangquan Kingdom, God Izanagi prayed to his wife: "My dear wife, the land you and I created has not been completed yet. I have come to pick you up. Please come back with me!" Izanami replied.

He: "It's a pity, my dear husband, that you came a little late, and I have already eaten the food of the underworld. However, since you came to me specially, saw your face that I miss day and night, and heard your gentle voice, I also

I am willing to go back! Let me beg the God of Underworld for mercy, but you have to promise me not to look at me during this period."]

[God Izanagi waited for a long time but did not see his wife come out. He ignored the agreement with his wife, took off the wooden comb from his left bun, broke off one of the teeth, lit a fire and looked into the temple. But he saw Izanagi.

The goddess of beauty is covered with squirming maggots, her throat is choked with anger, and she has eight thunder gods lying all over her body, and her face is extremely terrifying.]

[God Izanagi was so shocked that he left his wife and ran away. God Izanami was so ashamed and angry that he immediately sent the underworld ghost girl, the God of Thunder and the underworld army to chase after him. Finally, God Izanami chased him in person, but God Izanagi

They used the Senki Stone to block the Hiraozaka. They stood face to face across the Senki Stone and vowed to be husband and wife.]

["My husband, since you treat me like this, I will kill thousands of people every day in your country."]

["My wife, if you do that, I will build 1,500 delivery rooms every day."]

Lu Mingfei reluctantly listened to a few lines, resisted his desire to complain, and then said:

"It seems to be about Izanami, the mother goddess in Japanese mythology and legend."

Old Tang's expression suddenly became distorted, as if he saw someone else eating a fly. Although he didn't taste it himself, it was still disgusting to look at.
