Mystery Comes to the Dragon Race

Chapter 313 Izanami's Festival

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

"Miss, she has been staying in her own room." The crow scratched her head and replied inexplicably, "Reading quietly in her own room..."

Hearing Erika's state, Yuan Zhisheng not only did not breathe a sigh of relief, but frowned even more.

Yes, since Hui Huiliyi suddenly disappeared in her room last time, she suddenly reappeared in her room again, but from time to time, she seemed to be a completely different person...

On weekdays...

Originally playing games secretly, doing some small tricks at meetings, and loving those little toys, Erika sometimes reads quietly with a profound classic, and has not continued to try to run away from home .

... If it wasn't for the fact that the DNA was compared during the physical examination, and Erika's pedigree was there, Yuan Zhisheng even wondered if Erika had been transferred.

The current Erika...sometimes it is very strange to him.

Although the original Erika couldn't speak, and had an innocent personality, like a little girl, very simple, but when facing him, she would still express her potential dependence from time to time.

but now……

The situation is very different.Sometimes when the current Erika sees him, she will express the emotions of a younger sister towards her elder brother in a very standard way. Every move is very standard, and she perfectly plays the role she should have.

Then from time to time, it will suddenly return to the previous state, to the previous innocence.He would even ask him for a game console in oblique ways...

Makes me wonder if it's a mental breakdown...

What happened to Eri Yi?
Yuan Zhisheng was full of doubts in his heart, but he couldn't know what caused Erika's situation.

All the changes in Eriyi have been since that disappearance... When she came back again, great changes took place.During the period when she suddenly disappeared... What exactly did Erika experience?
From the standpoint of his brother, Yuan Zhisheng wanted to find out what happened to his sister.Is this change good or bad?

But for the Sheqi Bajia, it is a good thing to have a more calm and stable head of the Uesugi family—instead of the little girl who didn’t understand anything.

Moreover, Erika's own lineage is still there, and she is still an important guarantee for the Snake Ba Family.No matter how many changes in personality have taken place, as long as Erika is still in the Sheqi Bajia, within the scope of their control, it doesn't matter much.

maybe……

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

Yuan Zhisheng suddenly had such a thought in his mind.

But then this idea was rejected by him.

Because Erika has been staying in the headquarters, her every move is actually under the eyes of many people. Even if she tried to run away from home, she couldn't go far.Erika had no chance of getting in touch with Miracle Magician at all.

Although Miracle Magician's whereabouts have always been secretive and elusive, Yuan Zhisheng still believes in Kaguya Ji's ability. If Miracle Magician appears inside Genji Heavy Industries, it is impossible not to be discovered.

But his intuition kept reminding him that this matter had a lot to do with that magician.

This is from my brother's intuition!

Because the time when the magician reappeared before the eyes of the world and the time when Erika disappeared was an amazing coincidence... Tell him directly that there must be some connection between the two.

Not to mention... According to the rumors, a girl with dark red hair was following the Miracle Magician who had recently come back.

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

But... Eriyi has been in the headquarters since she disappeared, and has never gone out again.

Thinking of Erika, Yuan Zhisheng was full 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 the magician?
I am afraid that this puzzle can only be solved by him personally looking for the mysterious magician.

…………

At this moment, Kanagawa is in the dark.

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

Kamakura, known as an ancient capital along with Nara and Kyoto, has many places of interest.

In ancient times, the Shonan coast and the Sagami River plain basin were quite prosperous centered on Sagami country.In the Musashi country area, which occupies most of the present Kawasaki City and Yokohama City, small-scale agricultural and fishing villages have formed around the ancient Tokaido and the Tokyo Bay coast.At the end of the Edo period, Yokohama Port was opened, and after entering the Meiji era, it began to develop vigorously centering on the coast of Tokyo Bay.

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

Yokohama City, the administrative and economic center of Kanagawa Prefecture, is also a very famous port city.The coast of Xiangmo Bay is full of bathing beaches and seaside parks, and is a famous tourist attraction.The Hakone area, which constitutes an important part of Fuji-Hakone Izu Park, is a famous hot spring hometown in Japan. It has unique scenery, beautiful scenery and overflowing hot springs.

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

It was in a square in a port city near the ocean. There was a lot of traffic on the square, and almost all of them were crowded.

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

From time to time, a brilliant firework 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 who sang gracefully and danced gracefully.

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

Although he said it was his first time traveling in Japan.However, as an out-and-out otaku, he certainly has a good understanding of Japan, the birthplace of otaku culture.

For an old otaku who watches anime, he is certainly no stranger to the festivals that often appear in anime.If there is any scene that is the most common in campus animation, the summer festival definitely has a place.Yukata, temple fairs and fireworks are 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. "Matsuri" is one of the most important traditional activities in Japan and an important part of Japanese traditional culture. "Matsuri" reflects many cultural elements of Japan in a concentrated manner and displays Japanese culture in a concentrated manner.

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

The Gion Festival originated in the Heian period during the reign of Emperor Qinghe, when the population of Japan increased rapidly and a plague broke out, killing many people.Due to the lack of medical knowledge, people at that time attributed the cause of the disease to resentment.In order to appease the spirits of resentment, people hold a ghost meeting at Yasaka Shrine to pray for blessings and disaster relief.In the early days, the Gion Yulinghui was only held when there was an epidemic, and it became an annual event after 970 AD, and it was promoted among the people.The Gion Festival was suspended for more than 20 years due to the "Onin Rebellion", and it was not resumed until the 5th year of Mingying (1496 A.D.).Since then, the Gion Festival has begun to break away from the official color and become more and more folk and commercial.

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

Ceremonies are gradually becoming popular among the people, and various large and small ceremonies have appeared.Some worship traditional gods, and some pray for blessings and disasters like the Gion Festival.

At this time, the festival in front of Lu Mingfei was equally lively.The cries of hawkers and the laughter of children mixed together. At this moment, everyone relaxed and immersed 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, looking at the stage not far away.

"Shall we go and have a look?"

Lu Mingfei stared speechlessly at the guy in front of him whose eyes were full of spectators.This is still a dragon king, which is really surprising.

"Speaking of which... what is this show?" Old Tang asked enthusiastically.

Lu Mingfei looked at the pale-painted actors on the stage, all of whom were male, and those exquisite stage props.The audience faces the direction of the stage. A walkway extends from the left side of the stage through the auditorium to a special backstage exit behind the auditorium. The middle part of the stage looks like it can be rotated.

The main actors walk "flower path" on and off the stage, the narrator sits in the corner on the right side of the stage, and the band hides in the attic on the side of the stage, playing shamisen, small drums and flutes.

It was quickly recognized what kind of show it was.

It's Kabuki.Kabuki is the most famous and largest traditional theater form in Japan.Kabuki does not have the large sections of singing in Western operas and Chinese operas. It is neither a singing drama nor a pure drama, but a drama that speaks in a special pronunciation with musical interludes and narration.The actor's way of speaking is similar to that of Beijing opera, and they use accents and tunes when they pronounce words.

Modern Kabuki is characterized by exquisite sets, complex stage mechanisms, gorgeous costumes and make-up, and the actors are all male.

"It seems to be some traditional repertoire. I don't know much about these." 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 eight creation gods were born in Japan. Izanagi and Izanami were responsible for fixing the earth and creating Japan.After the combination of the two, eight children were born, namely Yashima, so Japan was also called the big Yashima country in ancient times. 】

[After giving birth to the country, the two gods gave birth to gods, respectively in charge of rivers, oceans, mountains, fields, wind, and trees. When the god of fire was born, God Izanami was burned and bedridden, and soon died of illness. 】

[After the death of God Izanami, God of Destiny Izanah was very sad. After killing the god of fire with his sword, he chased all the way to Huangquan Kingdom, and wanted to take his wife back. 】

[In front of the main hall of Huangquan Kingdom, God Izanaki prayed to his wife: "My dear wife, the land created by me and you has not been completed yet, I am here to pick you up, please come back with me!" Izanami replied He: "It's a pity, my dear husband, you came a step late, I have already eaten the meal of Huangquan. However, since you came to find me on purpose, seeing your face that I miss day and night, and hearing your gentle voice, I also Willing to go back! Let me intercede with the God of Huangquan, but you have to promise me that you must not look at me during this period."]

[Izanagi God waited for a long time but his wife did not come out. Regardless of the agreement with his wife, he took off the wooden comb worn on the left bun, broke off a side tooth, lit a fire and looked into the temple.However, Izanami was covered in maggots wriggling all over her body, her throat was stuffed with breath, and the eight gods of thunder were crouching all over her body, her face was extremely terrifying. 】

【Izanagi God was taken aback, left his wife and turned around and fled.Izanami was ashamed and angry, and immediately sent Huangquan Ghost Girl, Thunder God and Huangquan Army to chase after him.In the end, Izanami came after him personally, but Izanaki blocked Huangquan Hirazaka with a thousand stones.They stood face to face across the thousand lead stones, and made a vow of resolute 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 fifteen hundred delivery rooms every day."】

Lu Mingfei reluctantly listened to a few lines, held back his desire to complain, and then said:
"It seems that it is about Izanami, the mother goddess in Japanese myths and legends."

Old Tang's face suddenly distorted quite a bit, as if he saw others eating flies. Although he didn't taste it himself, it was still disgusting to watch.
