Yoji Shimokawa and Tsunayoshi Hidaka were staying together for the high school boys' weekend.
The two of them were good friends. They lived close to each other and often played together.
Playing games, reading comics, chatting about a cute girl in school, or having fun together, in short, this is the daily life of male high school students.
Recently, Shimokawa and Hidaka also became fans of Miss Mary, a new virtual anchor on YouTube who just launched.
So when the two of them played games and read comics together, Mari-chan's live broadcast would occasionally play in the background.
Tonight, Marie-chan did not suffer through playing "Lord of the Rings", but played "Two Together" with her friends.
Compared with when she first went online, the popularity of the live broadcast room has increased a lot.
In the past two days, the number of online viewers has stabilized in the thousands.
Although she is still a small anchor of this size, it is enough to show that Mary-chan is quickly accumulating fixed fans. If she continues to develop at this rate, it will definitely be no problem to become a middle-level anchor, not to mention a big anchor.
Mari-chan talked more tonight than usual, but most of the time she was not interacting with the barrage, but talking to her friends who were playing games with her.
The atmosphere in the live broadcast room is also more lively than before.
Except for those who discuss the content of live broadcast games, the barrage in the live broadcast room can be roughly divided into two factions, one is the crazy type——
"I'm new here. When did the host start cursing?"
"I really want to be Miss Mary's dog."
"..."
Mari-chan would sneer at this kind of barrage even if she saw it.
When he is really impatient, he frowns and curses: "Baga! Hentai! No road race, no road race!"
But usually when Marie-chan speaks like this, the fans with epilepsy will burst into cheers...
The barrages of the other faction are relatively normal compared to people who are having fun.
Shimokawa Yoji called them the Prayer Sect.
This kind of barrage started to appear a few days ago, and now it is gradually increasing in number. Judging from the IDs, they are all posted by different people.
"Marie-chan's live broadcast with ten consecutive gold withdrawals, I still wish to fulfill my wish!"
"It's brilliant, it's brilliant! Miss Mary is indeed my goddess of luck!"
…
Hidaka Tsunryo: "Yoji, Yoji, are you ready? I'm going to draw a card!"
This guy Rigao, seeing the number of "Prayer Faction" barrages in the live broadcast room increasing tonight, suddenly got excited and started clamoring to draw cards in Miss Mary's live broadcast room too.
And I asked my friend Shimokawa Yoji to help take pictures and record them.
"OK OK."
Shimokawa asked Rigao to put his phone in front of the computer screen and record the video together with the live broadcast room.
When the two of them did this, they didn't really believe that Miss Mary's live broadcast room would bring "good luck in drawing cards" as the barrage said.
Uh... maybe, maybe I believe it subconsciously.
After all, no one can be sure about things like metaphysics.
However, the main purpose of shooting records is for fun.
If you really want to get lucky, you can post the video online. If it doesn't ship, then you won't post it, and there's no point in posting it.
Hidaka Tsunryo first posted a barrage in Mary's live broadcast room, and then he clapped his hands and made an incomprehensible and unexplained worship gesture: "I only have the rough stone of ten companies this time, Mary-chan must bless me to draw the walnut jam"
come!"
"Hurry up." Yoji Shimokawa urged his friend, holding up his cell phone.
Mari-chan, who was currently broadcasting, happened to take the time to glance at the barrage at this time. Maybe she saw the barrage posted by Hidaka. She sighed helplessly and muttered in a low voice: "You guys, you treat me like a wishing fountain."
Turtle?"
Rigao clicked the draw card button.
In the picture on the mobile phone screen, a white light flashed across the sky and exploded into several arcs of light.
One of the most dazzling ones is gold!
This cutscene shows that Rigao has made ten consecutive rounds and has a five-star character!
"Hey! Look, it's really out!"
"Is Marie-chan really so amazing?"
The two male high school students giggled excitedly, and the room was suddenly filled with a happy atmosphere.
Ding!
The screen flashed, first a blue weapon, then a gold one, this time the five-star character was drawn——
A cute loli with a ghostly appearance and a zombie shape.
"Ah - it's not walnut jam."
"This is also very cute."
Click on the screen, and the light displayed subsequently will still be golden.
"Eh?"
"Double gold?"
The role here is correct, it is what Hidaka wants.
The more excited you are, the more golden you will be.
"Eh eh eh?"
With trembling fingers, I continued to click, and the light of the subsequent characters was still golden.
Tsunayoshi Hidaka's mood changed from happiness, to surprise, and now to disbelief.
Even Yoji Shimokawa, who was helping him take the records, doubted his life: "...Is there a bug? Is this reasonable? Isn't it too wrong? Take a screenshot, Tsuna, take a screenshot quickly!"
"Hehe...hehehe."
One shot and ten consecutive rounds ended.
A total of five golden characters were produced, and except for the first one, the remaining four were all wanted by Hidaka.
Shilian Hardware.
"This, this is a bit... Tsunaliang, you guy, you might end up in the hospital tomorrow, right?"
"Quickly, Yangji, pinch me. Am I really still alive now? Have you taken a good photo?"
"Take the photos, take them all, and post them online later!"
"I declare that from now on, I am a loyal believer of Miss Mary! I will go to Lady Mary's live broadcast room to fulfill my wish!"
The two male high men were looking at the checkout page of the card on their mobile phones, and they were crazy about it for a long time.
The happiness of mobile game players is so unpretentious, simple and pure.
And Shimokawa also began to think about whether he should also draw cards from Miss Mary's live broadcast room later?
…
Arakawa Ward, Kamiya Family.
Kamiyagawa and his party returned home with the hearse group, Mary and the Zashiki team, who went out to randomly select lucky spectators.
Kamiya went up to the second floor.
At this time, Xiaowu's live broadcast had just ended.
He knocked on the study door, opened it and walked in.
Satoru squatted on the artificial mechanics chair, and Cai Zhi stayed beside her.
Seeing Kamiya coming in, Xiaowu turned his chair pitifully, with a tired and autistic look on his face: "I'm so tired... Why does it feel like playing games on a live broadcast is so much harder than when I usually play by myself? You humans... it's really weird
ah!"
"Hmm. Hold on, keep it up."
Kamiya walked forward with a smile, first pulled Aori's little hand woven with red crayon lines, and then gently patted Satoru's white-haired head.
"Uh-huh! Don't touch me casually! You bastard!"
Satoru shook his ponytail to resist.
"You're doing a great job, aren't you? The popularity of the live broadcast continues to rise, and thanks to you, the power of faith in Mary Shrine is getting more and more. I guess it's almost time to consider offering the seat to the Kisha Shrine as a shrine, and charge a small fee
The power of incense. Moreover, maybe the money spent on configuring equipment for you in the future can be earned back through your live broadcast."
"You, you, you are a black-hearted capitalist, a bad onmyoji, and a philanderer! Stop thinking about yourself, think about me too!" Xiao Wu protested, swinging his legs that couldn't reach the ground.
"What’s wrong with you?"
"I worked so hard!"
"Then, buy you some more games you like? Or something else?"
"I want to choose it myself! I want to make you bleed! I want to drain your wallet!"
Xiao Wu shouted angrily.
But even though she kept complaining, Guitan Loli didn't say anything like she didn't want to live broadcast anymore.
In fact, no matter what Satoru said, he was always willing to help Mary gain faith.
The mouth is disgusting and the body is disgusting, but the heart is upright.
"Okay, okay, I'll let you choose."
Like a fussy child, Kamiyakawa rubbed Satoru's white-haired head again.
This time, Xiaowu didn't resist so fiercely. He just sat with his legs together, his hands on his knees, like a wild cat that was about to be tamed but still unconvinced, grinning dissatisfiedly at Kamiya.
…
This Sunday is New Year's Day.
According to the previous agreement with Onizuka, Kamiyagawa is going to Juqiong Shrine to do the first attainment today.
In the morning, the little miko sent him a line: [Kamiya, you can come over later in the afternoon.]
Kamiya:[Okay.]
Onizuka: [Would you like to have dinner at our shrine?]
Kamiya: [Is it very rich?]
Onitsuka: [Sorry, maybe only bento.]
Onizuka: [I will be very busy today. In the evening, as the Son of God, I will perform a ritual dance. Do you want to watch it?]
Kamiya: [Yes. Will it be lively at night?]
Onitsuka: [It will be more lively during the day, but the shrine is closed to outsiders tonight. But I have already said hello to my mother-in-law, you can stay.]
Kamiya: [Is the evening a sacrifice to Abe Seimei?]
Onitsuka: [No. Although our shrine has learned Seimei-sama’s platycodon technique, we also enshrine Tenyu Shouto-sama. The sacrifice at night is mainly to Tenyu Shouto-sama.]
Kamiya: [So tonight we are going to dance the dance of being betrayed by Tianyu?]
Onizuka: [Hmm, you know quite a lot. It seems that you have been studying mythology well recently.]
Kamiya: [Uh... the dance of Tianyu being sold out in the myth seems a bit inappropriate for children, right? Is it really something I can watch?]
Onizuka:[!!!]
Onizuka: [What are you thinking? Your knowledge has been distorted! How can it be possible to perform a ritual dance like that! I am well dressed!]
Onizuka: [I don’t want to talk to you anymore. Please don’t stay and watch at night!]
Kamiya: [Sorry, sorry.]
Onizuka:[Kamiya, H!]
Tianyu is a goddess in Japanese mythology and the ancestor of shrine maidens.
Legend has it that the dance of this goddess can open accounts in Tianmen. According to the myth of "Ama Iwato", because of Susanoo's misbehavior, Amaterasu became angry and hid in Ama Iwato, and the world suddenly fell into darkness. It was Tian Yu who was betrayed.
Dancing in a half-naked skirt attracted Amaterasu to come out.
But according to Onitsuka, the sacrificial dance she is going to dance tonight is of the solemn type.
The dance of being betrayed by heaven and earth in the human world is of course solemn.
In addition, Kamiyagawa is relatively familiar with the god Tianyu was sold to.
Because Tianyu’s life was betrayed by another name—Tiantian Nu Ming.
There is a statue of Tenden no Ming on Takamagahara, the one behind Suzuhiko-hime's sister.
Suzuhiko-hime always stays in front of the statue of Tenden-onna. It can be speculated that her role should be similar to that of a shrine maiden.
A shrine maiden who serves the master of ghosts and gods.
This is consistent with what Suzuhiko-hime has said and done all along.
"Onizuka said that Juqiong Shrine is not open to outsiders at night, but I can stay and watch her dance. So, am I not considered an outsider?"
This feeling of being treated specially is quite good.
Around 3pm.
Kamiyagawa arrived in Kanagawa in a ghost car, at the foot of the mountain of Juqiong Shrine.
Some fine snow fell in the morning, and the snow on the steps of the shrine has been cleared away, but the ancient trees on both sides of the forest are still covered in a shiny white color.
Kamiyakawa wrapped the scarf around his neck and exhaled a white breath.
The air in the mountain forest is crisp and refreshing, and it seems to cleanse the lungs.
Probably because today is the first day of the New Year, there are many tourists and believers coming to Juqiong Shrine to worship.
At the end of the shrine, there is a vermilion torii gate, with snow on the top outlined by black lines, with distinct red and white colors.
All tourists and believers who pass by the torii will stop in twos and threes and bow in front of the torii.
In front of the torii is the sailor's house.
Before visiting the shrine, it is customary to wash away the dirt on the body, that is, to purify the body. However, for ordinary worship, you only need to wash your hands with water at the sailor's house, and rinse your mouth with water.
No one really takes a bath here to purify themselves.
Because this is the Onizuka family's shrine, Kamiyagawa who came to visit followed the rules.
The Sailor House of Juqiong Shrine is fed by mountain spring water, flowing along the horizontally cut bamboo tube, sweet and cold.
"It's so cold."
Kamiya went through the process and put the ladle back.
Then he continued walking forward with the crowd.
Juqiong Shrine is also about making money. Inside, you can see a shrine maiden in white clothes and scarlet hakama, managing and selling royal guards and ema.
Generally speaking, when there are a lot of tourists like this, Juqiong Shrine will call in part-time shrine maidens to help.
These girls are different from Onizuka Kiriho. Strictly speaking, they are not real insiders of the shrine. Most of them are female high school students from nearby, or college students on vacation.
As for Onizuka, she is the only orthodox divine child of Juqiong Shrine.
I won't be here at this time, but I will be busy in the apse that is closed to worship the gods at night.
Kamiyakawa took out his mobile phone and looked at it: "It's still early, Onizuka looks very busy. I'd better go around by myself."
He did not go to buy the royal guards and ema, but went directly to the front of the main hall, put some incense money in the money box, and rang the bell to inform the gods.
The process of visiting a shrine is generally in the order of "two bows, two claps and one bow".
Correct your posture, bow slightly, stand upright at 90 degrees, and bow twice. Then high-five your chest twice and make a wish to the gods. After clapping your hands and making a wish, put down your hands and bow 90 degrees again.
Finally, he bowed slightly and saluted.
Snapped.
Kamiyakawa gave a high-five to his chest and paused for a moment.
"What would be a good wish to make?"
Juqiong Shrine enshrines Abe Seimei, and also enshrines Tenden no Ming, which Kamiya has just learned about.
Isn’t it a bit overwhelming to ask them to bless me to successfully ascend the throne of the co-lord of ghosts and gods in Gaotian Plain?
"Then, may Onizuka be safe and sound."
Snapped.
Kamiya closed his eyes and clapped again.
The shrine hall with its white walls and blue tiles and vermilion lines has a solemn atmosphere.
Note that the hanging bell under the rope rang, and the sound was simple and long.
After catching up on my sleep for a while in the afternoon, I may want to buy some melatonin.
