Superpowers of Sky City

Chapter 159 The Wishing Sacrifice (2)

The festival held in Xinzhou City is obviously a big event of Qiyao Shinto.There are not only the gods with a prosperous incense, such as the god of imperial food, sitting here, but also the Inari Shrine that Rina calls.Gongsun Ce only took a quick glance, and saw several priests wearing high-end white hunting clothes and an old woman similar to Izumo Feiyi beside the stage.

"Inari Shrine is the same big shrine as our family's Huangquan Shrine. That Fushimi mother-in-law is the shrine master of Inari Shrine." Rina introduced in a low voice, "She seems to be in a bad mood today."

It could be seen that the old lady's stinky face made the temperature around the stage drop a few degrees.

"The old man doesn't like the wish collection?"

"It seems that Shiyu smashed the statue of the God of Food and Beverage yesterday morning when he was looking for faults." Rina murmured, "I heard that my mother-in-law was so angry that she beat him up with a cane, and she still hasn't calmed down. "

... The old lady seemed to be at least 80 years old and still able to fight people in person, not to mention that she was very tough.

Shi Yuling pretended to be deaf and dumb, pretending that he didn't hear anything, and was looking around excitedly. All kinds of weird and strange spirits beside them were also chatting endlessly like the audience waiting for the performance to start.

"Have you heard, the lord of Jongo Island hasn't come back this month!"

"The rough guys over there can also breathe a sigh of relief... Oh, I dare not say more."

"When I first came here, I saw Father Tatao, why did he come here from Yamato?"

"It must be that the ninjas are too scary... Many old guys have been unable to live in the past few years..."

The gray-haired young man was listening with great interest, when suddenly he felt a chill around him, and there was a salty smell in the air, as if a gust of sea breeze was blowing.He looked sideways and found a big hidden spirit squeezed in from the crowd of gods and stood beside him.

"Boy, are you the God of Misfortune? It's really rare."

This guy's attire can also be called weird at the festival scene. He is a skeleton with blindfolds, a royal style gold embroidered blue coat, a pirate hat on his head, and a steel fishing rod on his back. How do you look at it? How does it look like... a ghost pirate who went to the wrong set...

Look at the sailor knife on your waist!A wine bottle in your pocket!There is also a handwritten lingua franca label on the clothes!Although they are both island countries, Morton and Zero Island are completely different! Brother, you have gone to the wrong place!
Gongsun Ce said tactfully: "Sir, you don't look like a local, you are dressed in a western style."

The skeleton pirate took a sip of rum, his eyes flickered, as if he was staring at him: "What are you talking about! Our family knows the Tao at a glance, and it is also a traditional school here on Chikushi Island. Why does it look like a foreign long-haired man?" Devil!"

That is, you have become a skeleton and it is really hard to find a hair.

Gongsun Ce nodded again and again and said yes. This person looked familiar, and talked to him again: "You, the connection is golden. What good things happened today?"

Gongsun Ceqian said with a smile: "In fen... in the stinky quagmire, I fought to the death with the soul cut ninja."

Looking at his "fire" light suddenly changed, his skeletal jaw trembled: "Boy, then your good luck must be tonight! If you want to get something good, please tell our family, Our family will exchange the baby with you."

Well, co-authors are waiting for me here.

Gongsun Ce scratched his head, deeply amused.It seems that this gang of hidden gods really came here for barter. The so-called wish collection festival turned out to be a trading market.

"Mr. One Eye, you have to tell me what you want first, right?"

Unexpectedly, after hearing this, the skeleton pirate suddenly became irritable: "Could it be that you deliberately teased our family! How can our family know what we want?!"

Gongsun Ce was dumbfounded, finding fault is not as arrogant as you!He hurriedly clasped his hands together and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, you can also tell that I'm a foreigner, and I made a joke because I don't understand the local customs. I hope you will forgive me."

Yimu Dao let out a huff angrily, turned around and walked into the pile of gods and disappeared. Hidden God, who was so familiar just now, left without even wanting to say a word.What's even more strange is that none of the twittering monsters complained after he left, and many of them looked at him unfriendly.

Gongsun Ce thought about the reaction of these inhumans, and suddenly remembered the faceless woman in the mirror, and suddenly had a guess in his mind.He just wanted to turn his head to ask, but found that the two companions were looking at him with mentally ill eyes.

"... In your eyes, I am talking to the air?"

"To be precise, it's air with sound."

Gongsun Ce rested his forehead and sighed, and asked again: "Miss Shi Yu, how many people in this street look like ordinary people?"

Shigure Zero frowned and replied, "At least more than half."

Gongsun Ce looked at the strange shapes all over the street, and thought that if he wanted to pick out the Nether Eye, it would save most of the trouble along the way.

In just a few minutes of talking, the arrangement on the stage has been completed.The priests in white hunting clothes stand on the left and right sides, each holding drum sticks, bamboo sticks, pipas, flutes, and gongs, and are waiting in full force; the fox-like imperial food god is sitting on the cloth ball behind, holding a wine cup, his eyes are shining Bright.The miko who is about to perform the dance sits kneeling in the middle of the stage, with a Kagura bell tied with a five-color belt in front of her. Instead of a golden crown, she wears a fox mask.

The priest picked up the stick and beat the taiko drum. "Boom!" The sound echoed in the venue, and the noisy environment became quiet for a while, and everyone fell silent tacitly.The ethereal chime sounded, and the rest of the musical instruments followed suit. The fox-faced priestess stood up to the accompaniment of Gagaku, unfolded a folding fan from her sleeve, and began the Kagura dance in time.

This dance is very slow, completely different from his usual fast-paced dance.The folding fan circled slowly, the five-color ribbons flowed through Su’s hands, and the fifteen bells on the Kagura bell rang in unison. See every detail clearly.With the monotonous accompaniment, it is really a dance dedicated to the gods.How can ordinary people nowadays have the interest to crowd around and watch such a boring dance?

And the audience here is indeed gods.They stood under the stage, flew high in the sky, watched intently, and didn't care about the time, energy, and ornamental qualities that mortals muttered, and only quietly appreciated the dance enshrined to them.

Gongsun Ce held his mobile phone and watched quietly.Being used to a fast-paced life, he couldn't appreciate the beauty of this dance, but he felt there was no harm in trying it once in a while.This may be the enlightening taste of traveling. The point is not whether it is good or not, but whether it has been seen.

The Kagura dance lasted for nearly half an hour, until the maiden raised her folding fan again, walked towards the fox-faced god with slow steps, bowed to him, and stepped off the stage. Reverted to boisterous.

"Oh, Miss Hua..." "This year's Kagura is still elegant." "This trip is worth it!"

The fox-faced Yujian Jinshen walked to the middle of the stage and toasted the demons and ghosts: "I wish everyone can realize their wishes."

"Thank you, Lord Yujiajin!" The hidden gods shouted in unison.The fox god drank the wine in the cup, and the demons and ghosts laughed and walked away from the stage, announcing the official opening of the ceremony.

Rina came up to him with a smile: "How is it? Our Kagura dance is not seen in other places."

Gongsun Ce said frankly: "To be honest, I don't really understand the point of gods and adults. I only think that Miss Miko's figure is very beautiful."

"I know, you layman." Rina spread her hands, "Then let's talk about some precautions, and I will take you to see the stalls of the gods? If you are really lucky today, maybe you will meet some good things. ……What's wrong?"

While speaking, the voice of "Master Rina—" came from not far away.The priest in white safari came running quickly, possessed him and said something in a low voice.

"Shall we go now? No, but we need to accompany the guests first..."

The old man Fushimi stood in the shadow on the side of the wooden stage, the expression on his face was still not very good.Rina glanced in that direction and shrank her neck: "You guys wait a moment! Let's explain the situation to my mother-in-law and come back soon!"

"It's okay, don't be in a hurry, go ahead, let's take a look at the stall!" Gongsun Ce smiled and waved.He watched Rina go away, took out his mobile phone, and asked, "Kirara, is Kagura Mai good-looking?"

The girl on the screen jumped up and down with starry eyes: "This is a super valuable reference!! The inspiration for the next concert is coming out all of a sudden!!"

...Almost forgot that your job is to be an idol.

"It's not in vain to have fun."

Gongsun Ce thought for a moment, and said, "Wait for me to type and explain the details. If you have time, please check the data for me? Just vibrate your phone when you get the result."

"Leave it to me~"

Gongsun Ce typed quickly, and pushed his glasses: "Let's go, Miss Shiyu, let's go to the festival of hidden gods and see what good things we can meet."

"Huh? You really believe in the so-called fortune."

"Don't say it, I feel like I understand the routine of Zero Island a little bit..."

The gray-haired youth and the hunter squeezed into the crowd of monsters, and walked around the surrounding stalls amidst the howling ghosts and wolves.This episode of Wishing Festival really sells everything: straw monsters yelling and selling palm-sized straw figures, monsters covered in syrup making fresh apple candy in front of the cart, cooks with fish faces selling live fish and shrimp, and so on. More demons and goblins found a place to sit, put all kinds of rare objects, and chatted with customers to exchange goods, which reminded him of the bazaars he had seen when he was a child.

Shi Yuling walked to the apple candy stand with great interest and asked, "Boss, how do you sell the apple candy?"

The syrup monster squirmed a bit: "Hee hee, no money from humans! People with golden connections, take what you want!"

Shi Yuling had black lines on his face: "Hey, what kind of logic do you have, if I'm lucky, you can give me something for nothing?"

"Yes, yes!" The syrup monster chuckled, "Lucky, you can have candy when you're hungry, and you can find money on the way!"

Gongsun Ce was already very familiar with the behavior of the Hidden Gods. He opened the suitcase, took out a green mask, and said with a smile: "It's not easy to get things for nothing. What do you think of this?"

The syrup monster came over and shook, as if smelling it: "What is this?"

"Our special product over there can temporarily change a person's appearance when applied on the face. It is effective for one day. If you want to use me to help you adjust it, just do it."

The syrup monster trembled all over, and shouted: "It's too big, I can't find it! You wait!" After saying that, he hurriedly dragged the syrup and ran away, leaving a fragrant trace on the ground.Dozens of seconds later, the syrup monster came over with two freshly baked takoyaki, two boxes of takoyaki, a portion of fried noodles, and two large pieces of grilled squid. He also grabbed two sticks of candied apples and put them together in a bag. : "Here you are, here you are!"

"Thank you boss." The gray-haired young man took the food and passed a candy to his partner.The corners of Shi Yuling's eyes twitched: "Exchange a disguise mask for snacks, you've lost a lot of money on this deal..."

"From another perspective, I exchanged so many things with one item, isn't that making money?"

"Tut tsk tsk tsk." Shi Yu Ling worriedly let the slime test the poison, and then started to eat the candy.Gongsun Ce walked leisurely with his bag in hand, he believed that the snacks he bought would come in handy...

Because he understands that he is very lucky today.

Sure enough, after walking for less than half a minute, a group of little ghosts less than knee height entangled him.These little ghosts had bruised skin, scantily clad, all of them had big bellies, drooling from their mouths, and they looked irritating.

The little ghosts clapped their hands and shouted: "Haha, you, the one with the golden connection!" "Ji Ceremony, are you happy?" "Do you have anything to eat?"

"Some information, Miss Shigure."

Shi Yuling said inarticulately: "Hungry brat... blah blah... is everywhere, the combat power is very weak, and the lowest level of the hidden spirit."

Gongsun Ce squatted down and took out a pocket full of food: "How about exchanging information for snacks?"

The hungry kids immediately put their heads down and started eating, the leader said while eating, "Three, three questions!"

"Okay. First, do you know who's the best informed here?"

The hungry little ghost pointed to a long-haired bird-beaked fish-body monster not far away: "Haiyishen knows everything!"

"Second question, do you know anyone here who can be armed with mind?"

"Psyche, armed?" "Ninjas' magical equipment."

"Ah, weapons! Daddy Tara on the south side of the street is the most powerful blacksmith!"

Gongsun Ce nodded with satisfaction, and finally asked: "The last is a common-sense question. As a foreigner, I don't quite understand it. I hope you can help me understand..." He lowered his voice, "I feel that most of the gods here My lord, you don’t really know what you want?”

After hearing this, the hungry little ghosts stopped eating. "You, you! You are an outsider, this is a taboo! Everyone doesn't know, so they don't want to hear this! Do you know!"

"Understood, I understand." Gongsun Ce smiled and cupped his hands, "Thank you for answering your questions. I'm going to continue shopping at the festival."

The hungry ghosts ran away with their food in their hands, but Gongsun Ce stood there, thinking.

"What on earth do you want to do? If you want intelligence and mind-arming, why don't you just ask someone from Qiyao Shinto for help?" Shi Yuling threw the finished candy stick into the trash can.

Gongsun Ce shook his head and sighed, "I'm afraid that there are some things that hidden gods know better than priests! Come on, let's see what Father Ta Tara looks like, maybe we can upgrade your black arrow."

Shi Yuling didn't hold out hope at all: "Just this place? My Demon-Breaking Arrow is a first-class product produced by Superbia!"

"Just give more confidence to the craftsmen in your hometown." The superpower walked to the south with full expectation, "Good luck today, maybe I can also customize a useful weapon."
