Chapter 223 Master Fan’s daughter, stained with blood and burning incense (page 12)
[You sneak up on those young women, and you see that they have fair faces and shabby clothes. Although they are obviously dressed up and are more beautiful than ordinary women, you can tell at a glance that their families are poor. 】
[The sound of whispers gradually comes...]
[The women are discussing the recruitment conditions on the notice. The two most basic conditions are as you know before. One is that they are of noble status, and the other is that they have not yet left the cabinet. 】
[There are other additional conditions such as good looks and literacy. 】
[Obviously, the women discussed here do not meet both requirements, but listening to their discussions, it seems that there is still room for maneuver...]
['Shishan Club' is not very popular, and the recruitment conditions were relatively harsh before. It has been a long time since it has recruited a suitable shrine maiden. 】
[The requirements for recruiting shrine maidens may be relaxed this time. After all, 'Fukang City' is located in a remote and backward place where the 'Yona' custom is prevalent. Many civilian women do not meet the two conditions. 】
[The discussion among the women gradually deviated from the topic, and gossips such as 'There is an unknown Onmyoji who claimed to be able to repair the perfect body of the shrine maiden to be chosen, and the women believed it, but ended up being defrauded of money and sex'...]
[You eavesdropped for a long time, but without hearing any valuable information, you passed through the torii gate and continued towards the mountain road...]
[As soon as I stepped through the torii gate, I felt a huge force sweep through your body. 】
[You feel a chill in your heart, knowing that this is a sign of entering the 'god's realm'. 】
[The power of the divine domain has the functions of defense, monitoring, breaking invisible, etc. to prevent evil spirits or Xiaoxiao from setting foot. If you are possessed by the body of the 'original hermit' at this time, most people will notice the abnormality. 】
Lin Xun frowned.
Wilderness shrines all have such methods, and the power of the new gods they belong to cannot be underestimated.
"First let's see how deep the water in this shrine is."
[You walked as fast as flying, and soon you followed the stone steps to the top of the mountain. 】
[The divine power here is still surrounding you for a long time, making you dare not relax even a little bit. 】
['Ishiyama Shrine' is a small shrine in the wilderness and is not qualified to worship the statue of 'Canggu Tianyan'. The statue set up in the shrine is a small deity belonging to the new god named 'Tensui Sakidao', who is in charge of the harvest. gods. 】
[The two lowest-ranking clergymen stood at the entrance of the 'Shishan Society' to greet and escort them away. 】
【You discovered the 'fire-worshipping Shishan Society'! 】
[When the official saw you, he knew that you were an extraordinary person. He came forward to greet you and asked respectfully if you came to offer incense? 】
[You hold the sword at your waist, your back straight like a spear, and you nod slowly. 】
[The official signaled you to wait for a moment, then hurriedly ran into the shrine...]
[Not long after, a man in gorgeous vegetarian clothes strode over. As soon as he saw you, he showed a respectful smile. 】
[It claims to be the 'Quan Niyi' of the shrine, responsible for daily social affairs, and has the honor to lead the way for Master Fan of the 'Wushin-ryu Kendo Hall'. 】
['Fire-Worshiping Ishiyama Shequan Mi Yi' came from a vague wave of divine power. Although it is not as powerful as the huge power you felt when you stepped into the 'Torii', it should not be underestimated. 】
[As a master, you are naturally well-informed and know that these clergy can borrow the power of the divine domain to bless themselves in the shrine and become extremely powerful. 】
[Outside the torii gate of a shrine, you are confident that you can kill the person in front of you with one sword, but inside the shrine, the outcome may have to be decided. 】
[You must know that 'Quan Niyi' is not the highest-status person in the shrine. 】
[You follow 'Quan Miyi' into the shrine...]
[The number of 'worship halls' within the shrine is far less numerous than those of the big shrines. The small wilderness shrine in front of you only has three 'worship halls' dedicated to the gods. 】
[The first two worship halls have staggered brackets and high eaves. Although the scale of the buildings is not large, they still give people a sense of solemnity. 】
[As for the worship hall deep in the third shrine, it looks a bit shabby compared to the previous two. Not only is the building standard one size smaller, but it also looks simple and plain, as if the incense has declined...]
[Introduced by 'Kwon Ni Yi', the first two worship halls respectively worship the two worldly incarnations of the harvest god 'Tensui Sakidao'. 】
[You follow Quan Miyi into the first worship hall...]
[Entering the worship hall, the divine power that has been surrounding you for a long time disappears, making you feel a little comfortable. 】
[In the worship hall, there are only a few believers who offer incense and one official who provides incense. 】
[There is a statue of a girl worshiped on the altar. The girl has a blurred face, wears a bamboo hat on her head, and holds a hoe in the shape of farming. 】
[Quan Youyi would like to introduce to you that this is one of the incarnations of 'Tensui Sakida'. The image of a young girl represents the return of spring to the earth and the growth of all things. People often come here to worship during spring plowing. 】
[You see several believers taking out their money and putting it carefully into the 'money box' on the side, and then they receive incense from the office to worship the gods and worship the power of their own incense. 】
[Quan Youyi knows that you have an extraordinary status and it is unseemly to worship the gods with ordinary believers, so I will take you to visit the next 'worship hall' first. 】
[The second worship hall is the same as before. As long as you step into the hall, the divine power surrounding you will disappear. 】
[There are more believers in this temple, and the statues on the altar are different from before. 】
[The image is of a plump and graceful mature woman, her hair wrapped in a sweat scarf, bowing and waving a small sickle in a harvesting shape. 】
[The image of a mature woman as a deity represents fruitfulness and prosperity. People often worship the deity during the autumn harvest in order to have a healthy family. 】
[Quan You should take you to visit the two worship halls, and then take you to the guest house for a while. After these pilgrims have finished their worship, I will clean the worship hall for Master Fan and let you worship alone...]
"Believers must donate money before offering incense... Could it be that they want to get a big sum of money from me because of my status (sha) and my status (ren)?"
Lin Xun narrowed his eyes. Not to mention that he had joined the 'Chaos Source Dragon' camp, it was absolutely impossible for him to donate money.
[You left the worship hall under the leadership of Quan Youyi...]
[You look towards the depths of the shrine, at the small, simple worship hall. 】
[Quan You should explain that the third 'worship hall' has not been cleaned for a long time, and it is full of dust. It is temporarily inconvenient to visit and worship. 】
[You were interested for a moment and expressed that you didn’t mind this and wanted to enter the worship hall to have a look. 】
[Quan Youyi shook his head and signaled again that the worship hall was not open to the public...]
[Do you want to insist on going to the third worship hall? 】
Lin Xun narrowed his eyes.
This worship hall, which is not open to the public, must have hidden secrets.
It would be a big loss if you missed the hidden event.
[You quietly took out 5,000 souls and quietly handed them to the 'Fire Worshiper Shishan Shequan Mi Yi', saying frankly that you had a firm belief and would definitely offer a lot of incense. 】
[It accepted the spirit without changing its expression, looked around, then firmly shook its head and explained that the worship hall at the deepest part of the shrine is indeed not open to the public and is protected by the power of incense. 】
[Even though it is 'Quan Niyi', it has been in the shrine for more than ten years, but has never been lucky enough to step into it. 】
