Tokyo Survival from Tamamomae

Time went back to an hour ago, Genji Shrine.

Before the worship ceremony started, Yuan Laichang was telling Haoren what details he needed to pay attention to.

"Hao Ren, your grandfather should have told you the story of the ancestors of my Genji clan, right?"

"Said."

"That's good. Listen carefully, Haoren. The ancestor is not very good-tempered. No matter what you hear or see later, don't make a sound. Leave everything to me. Also, the ancestor told you Whatever you do, you just do it..."

As a celestial traverser, Hao Ren is naturally no stranger to ancestor worship.

However, in the Chinese dynasty, worshiping ancestors is a tradition of prudently chasing after the end, drinking water and thinking about the source, worshiping ancestors because of filial piety, and praying for and repaying their protection and blessings by offering sacrifices to ancestors.

Because the ancestors have passed away, this is more of a spiritual sustenance.

However, the ancestor worship of the Genji clan does not seem to be the same thing.

"Isn't this an ordinary worship ceremony? Can I still see Genji's ancestors?" Haoren asked with some doubts.

"Naturally, the ancestor is not dead. We worship her, and she will respond. And this shrine is made of special materials. As long as the ancestor senses it, he can come here distractedly and communicate with us."

"understood."

"By the way, Haoren, because this time you are going to inherit the orthodoxy of my Genji clan, the matter is of great importance. Afterwards, the ancestors may conduct some special tests on you."

"Special test?"

"You'll find out then."

Yuan Laichang didn't elaborate, but just winked at Haoren mysteriously.

Subsequently, the worship ceremony officially began. Different from the ancestor worship in the Celestial Dynasty, the worship in the island country is not so much an ancestor worship as a sacrifice.

Although the island country is deeply influenced by the Chinese culture, its sacrifices still have a narrow sense and a broad sense.

The sacrificial offerings in chivalry are similar to those in the Celestial Dynasty, in that they pray for the blessings of ancestors and gods.

Sacrifice in a broad sense can be derived to mean festivals and cultural activities, such as "cultural festivals", "summer festivals", "academic festivals" and so on.

Genji's ancestor worship today is more like a festival in a sense.

According to Yuan Laichang, offering sacrifices to ancestors is a major annual day for Genji.

To this end, Yuan Laichang also specially invited the villagers to help. A group of people paraded along the countryside, played music, Datian music, reminded Taiko, danced lion dance, umbrella dance and so on.

It made it feel like a festival, but Haoren had a good experience of the village festival of the island country.

After finishing the work, Minamoto and Fujiwara Kirei took Haoren all the way to Genji Shrine, offering incense, reading chants, offering rice soup, serving tea, burning chants...

After completing such a set of procedures, finally, in the shrine's shrine, a huge unknown idea quietly descended here.

"The ancestors are here!"

This is coming?

Yuan Laichang let out a low cry, but before Haoren could react, there was an angry voice from inside the altar.

"Yuan Laichang, what are you doing? Didn't I tell you that I don't need you to introduce someone to me!"

"Ha~?"

In the shrine, hearing the anger suddenly coming from the shrine, but unexpectedly with a feminine voice, Haoren froze in place.

Although he knew for a long time that Genji's ancestor was a woman, actually hearing her voice was beyond his imagination.

In Haoren's view, Ushiwakamaru, Genji's ancestor, was born in an era of frequent wars, even though she was a woman.

As a woman, the other party has done things that ordinary men cannot do. The reputation of the military commander in the island country should be a King Kong Barbie... Cough, although it is a bit exaggerated, but at least she is a rough female man.

But I didn't expect her voice to be so beautiful.

However, it sounds good, the other party's tone seems to be very angry.

Hao Ren didn't understand the meaning of her words, so naturally he didn't understand why the other party was angry.

At this moment, apart from Hirohito, there are only Minamoto Yorichang and Fujiwara Kirei in the shrine.

Hearing that Uwakamaru was so angry as soon as he came up, the two were also slightly taken aback.

Fujiwara Kirei seemed to have remembered something, his complexion was weird for a while, he opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.

On the other hand, Yuan Laichang looked like an old god, and bowed towards the shrine neither humble nor overbearing:
"The ancestors are well."

As the instigator, he naturally knew why the ancestors were so furious.

It is nothing more than that in order to solve the crisis of the Genji clan's extinction, he made a constructive and bold proposal to the ancestors, but was rejected by the ancestors in the end.

It's just a small thing.

Although he persuaded him a few times later, even threatening him with his ancestor's precepts, he also forced the ancestor to successfully participate in a blind date meeting he introduced on the condition of saving an elder of the Tengu clan.

In the end, not only did it fail, but the ancestors gave the other party a hard lesson on the grounds of testing the blind date.

Because of his preconceived notions, the ancestor would definitely think that it was the same thing when he went to find her this time, and that's why he was so angry.

As everyone knows, although he, Yuan Laichang, does not stick to small details and thinks wildly, he also knows the truth that "things cannot be done and cannot be forced".

So, this time he took the second best option and thought of another way - to designate Haoren as Genji's heir, and to adopt one of his children to Genji.

Although the adopted child is not good in terms of blood, he still has some Genji blood.

In this way, the problem of Genji's extinction can be regarded as solved, and the ancestors must be very happy when they know about it.

Therefore, Yuan Laichang was not worried about the slight misunderstanding at this meeting, but asked slowly.

"What's the point of being safe? How can I be safe with such an uneasy and unfilial descendant like you? I'm really going to be pissed off by you!"

The voice in the shrine was still angry, but unexpectedly a little helpless.

She is the ancestor of the Genji clan, yes, but she is also the patriarch of the Tengu clan. The Tengu clan was entrusted to her by her master before his death, and she could not abandon it.

But now the human race is strong and the demon clan is weak. Although she is the demon emperor, Yuan Laichang is also a genuine human priest.

In front of the same level, even if she is an ancestor, she really doesn't have much face to speak of.

Even since 200 years ago, after the Yaozu fled to the demon rift, the Tengu clan who used to take care of Genji, in turn, had to be taken care of by the Genji clan, their positions were completely reversed.

So, don't look at how tough she is now, but she is actually not as confident as she imagined.

"Tell me, who did you introduce this time?"

After cursing a few words, a voice of compromise finally came from the shrine.

"Ancestor, this time actually..."

Yuan Laichang smiled slightly, and was about to explain something.

however……

"It's definitely not Fujiwara Kirei, they are already old, so it should be this kid who wants to go on a blind date with me?"

Haoren: "???"

"Well, she looks good, but unfortunately, if you want to catch my eyes, you still need to pass my test...

Boy, take two steps forward! "
