"No, it's okay. It's okay to skip a meal." Anshan Kazuo said.
"You'd better go to the restaurant quickly and ask the female general to pack a breakfast for you." Yushan Heren couldn't help but look at Anshan Kazuo and said.
If it was still the same hotel as yesterday, Anshan Kazuo could go directly to the restaurant to get some steamed buns, corn, etc.
However, the hotel today provided set meals, so Anshan Kazuo could only ask the female general to pack a portion for him.
Anshan Yifu originally wanted to say that there was no need to go through so much trouble, but his stomach started to growl.
"Then... I'll go to the restaurant." After thinking for a while, Anshan Kazuo blinked and said.
"Well, after packing, just go directly to the parking lot. It's already 8:23." Yushan Heren took out his mobile phone and checked the time.
Hearing this, Anshan Yifu quickly turned around and ran towards the restaurant room without saying a word.
They had to gather on the bus at 8:30, and Kazuo Anshan needed to complete a series of tasks from the dormitory to the restaurant, packing, and gathering in the parking lot within seven minutes.
Just thinking about it made Anshan Yifu feel that time was inexplicably tight, and he could not help but speed up his pace.
step.
Yushan Kazuto sat up from the bed and stretched.
Originally, he thought that Anshan Kazuo went to the restaurant, or that he was not used to the Japanese breakfast in the restaurant, so it was normal for him to find a convenience store and buy some bread.
However, what Yushan Kazuto did not expect was that the few photos he sent to Anshan Kazuo actually attracted the other party to search for the traces of Nara deer next to the water tank where Yushan Kazuto saw the Nara deer, and he actually found it.
To be honest, Yushan and others thought that the deer would leave after drinking the water.
Even if he went back to the water tank again, he might not be able to find the Nara deer, but Kazuo Anshan found it.
Of course, Yushan Kazuto could not be sure whether what Anshan Kazuo found was the Nara deer he met.
If the water trough was a fixed drinking point for the nearby deer, it was actually normal for Kazuo Anshan to meet other deer.
But in fact, Kazuo Anshan was very sure that what he found was the Nara deer that Kazuto Yushan saw in the morning.
Each Nara deer has different patterns, and Kazuo Anshan has compared the photos taken by Kazuto Yuyama with the Nara deer he saw.
Chapter 2488 Kasuga Taisha Shrine
"Anshan, you haven't had breakfast yet?" Kirisu Madoka couldn't help but ask as she watched Anshan Kazuo running to the bus, breathlessly carrying a packed breakfast.
"I got up a little late this morning and just went to the cafeteria to pack up a portion." Anshan Kazuo said after looking at Kirisu Madoka.
He didn't want to drag Hayama Kazuto into the water. If Kirisu Madoka knew that he ran out to look for the deer because he saw the photo that Hayama Kazuto sent him, she might blame Hayama Kazuto.
So I chose to tell a harmless little lie.
Hearing this, Kirisu Madoka blinked and turned to look at Yushan Kazuto: "Yushan-san, Anshan-san should be in the same room with you, why don't you wake him up?"
Listening to Kirisu Mafuyu's words, Yushan Kazuto couldn't help but blink slightly. Could this be related to him?
Anshan Kazuo couldn't help but blink slightly. He originally thought about not implicating Yushan Kazuto, but he didn't expect that Kirisu Madoka still connected them together.
"I think that Anshan looked a little tired yesterday, so it would be better to let him sleep a little longer." After thinking about it, Yushan Heren said.
"Yes, Mr. Kirisu, actually, it was Hayama-san who woke me up this morning, around 8:15."
After hearing what Yushan Kazuto said, Anshan Kazuo immediately realized that Yushan Kazuto was covering for him, and hurriedly continued to speak along with Yushan Kazuto's words.
"Okay." After looking at Anshan Kazuo, Kirisu Madoka could only sigh.
"Try to finish your breakfast in the car and don't drop it on the ground."
"I understand, Mr. Kirisu." Anshan Kazuo nodded and walked into the bus.
When passing by Yushanheren's seat, the two of them couldn't help but look at each other, which was considered a secret signal.
……
"The first stop today is indeed Kasuga Taisha Shrine." As she watched the shrine gradually appear before her eyes, Tsuchima Mai couldn't help but speak.
In the morning, she was still discussing the route of today's school trip with Narita Yuki and Yuuki Asuna! All three of them agreed that the main attraction today should still be the shrine, and when it comes to shrines in Nara, Kasuga Taisha Shrine is definitely unavoidable.
As expected, the first stop of the school trip to Nara was Kasuga Taisha Shrine.
"It's normal. When you come to Nara for a school trip, Kasuga Taisha Shrine is a must-visit place. The hotel we're staying in is so close to Kasuga Taisha Shrine, so we will definitely visit it first." Narita Yuki said with a smile.
"Well, I hope I can go to fewer shrines today." Doma Yui couldn't help but sigh.
Hearing this, the people around him couldn't help but nod their heads. The school trips to various shrines felt like a cheap group tour.
Fortunately, there were no shopping malls during this tour, which was a consolation.
"Mr. Doma, it's not right for you to say that." Hearing what Doma Yui said, Narita Akio couldn't help but walk over and spoke with a smile.
"Shrines are an important part of Japanese culture. Kasuga Taisha is listed as a World Cultural Heritage Site. It can be said to be a rare and precious treasure left to us by our ancestors. But you don't want to visit it. This idea is obviously wrong."
"I have no objection to visiting Kasuga Taisha Shrine." Upon hearing this, Doma Mai couldn't help but blink slightly and said.
"But Mr. Narita, can we go to fewer of the other shrines?"
If you are only visiting the Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine and Kasuga Taisha Shrine, there is nothing wrong with Doma Yui.
The main reason is that there are too many shrines on this trip. Except for some shrine lovers, the rest of the students may be a little aesthetically fatigued.
"This...I'm also a little helpless." After a pause, Akio Narita spoke.
After all, the itinerary of this school trip was set by the school, and Akio Narita had little autonomy in it.
"Okay, we're almost at the parking lot, everyone get ready, it's time to get off the bus."
Although he could see the resentment in his classmates' eyes, Narita Akio still spoke calmly.
"By the way, after visiting Kasuga Taisha Shrine, you can go back to the bus to get two deer senbei and go to Nara Park to feed the deer!"
After hearing what Akio Narita said, the students who were originally a little depressed suddenly became excited.
In fact, Deer Senbei is not expensive. It costs 200 yen per portion, which has 10 pieces. Two portions only cost 400 yen for 20 pieces.
What makes everyone excited is the feeling of being able to feed the deer freely.
Kasuga Taisha Shrine is actually located in Nara Park. In the shrine, you can see many deer walking around freely.
Moreover, compared to the "Nara Park" in a narrow sense, which is a place for tourists to feed deer, the deer at Kasuga Taisha Shrine are obviously more gentle and more tender.
The bus stopped at the parking lot, and everyone got off and walked towards Kasuga Taisha Shrine.
Deer may be rare animals in other places, but here they can be seen everywhere.
If the teacher had not restrained them, many students would have lost their patience and run to buy "Deer Crackers" to feed the deer.
However, under the supervision of the teachers and the school, the students were relatively obedient and walked all the way to Kasuga Taisha Shrine, although they felt a little bit like they were in Cao's camp but their hearts were with Han.
……
"Kasuga Taisha Shrine was first built in 1589 by Fujiwara no Fuhito, the patron saint of the aristocratic Fujiwara family. Today, the wisteria flowers in the shrine are also very famous."
As they walked towards Kasuga Taisha Shrine, Kirisu Mafuyu introduced it.
"But the wisteria flowers bloom from April to May, and we can't see them now." In the crowd, Yushan Kazuto was trying to discredit Kirisu Mafuyu in a very low voice.
Listening to what Kazuto Yuyama said, several classmates walking next to Kazuto Yuyama couldn't help but chuckle. Even Kato Megumi had a faint smile on her face. She felt that Kazuto Yuyama looked very cute now.
However, Kirisu Madoka, who was walking in front, naturally could not hear what Yushan Kazuto said, and continued with the introduction.
"The gods enshrined in Kasuga Taisha include Takeumutsuchi-no-Mikoto, Munetsu-no-Mikoto, Ame-no-Mikoto, and Himei-no-Mikoto. There are also sixty-one shrines, both large and small. After visiting the main shrine, you can visit the remaining shrines on your own."
Sekmosha is actually a special system of Japanese shrines, also known as branch shrines or branch shrines.
Generally, in addition to the main shrine, large shrines will also have varying numbers of sub-shrines and branch shrines. For example, there is a saying that there are 125 shrines in Ise Grand Shrine.
However, among these 125 shas, there are also annex shrines, sho-gō shas, etc., so they cannot be completely counted as sekmo-shas. But we can still get a glimpse of the universality of the sekmo-sha system in Japan.
Chapter 2489: Couple National Society
After visiting the main shrine of Kasuga Taisha, Hayama Kazuto, Kato Megumi and Fujinomiya Ningzi did not immediately go to find Kirisu Mafuyu to receive the deer clams. Instead, they visited the Satsuma-sha of Kasuga Taisha.
Some Sekmosha are very simple, with just a single small shrine with the deity enshrined in the center, much like the shrines in some Japanese homes.
A shrine like this one is basically not very popular. It is the type that people only occasionally pay attention to when they visit Kasuga Taisha.
Some Shemot shrines are more magnificent and even have separate temples built.
Such a Shemotsu shrine has more incense. After all, running a shrine is also a business. If there are not many people willing to worship at a shrine, it would feel like a waste of resources just to maintain it.
After walking around and looking around, Yushan and the other two stopped in front of a temple.
This is a branch society. Theoretically speaking, the connection between the branch society and the main society is not strong, and the gods worshipped here are also "outside members" and will not receive too much care from the main society.
However, this small sect built a separate temple, which is enough to show how popular it is.
"Fukuoku Shrine." Looking at the words on the plaque, Fujinomiya Ningzi couldn't help but read.
"This is probably one of the few shrines in Japan that worships both Okuninushi and Suserihime-no-Mikoto." Hayama Kazuto said with a smile.
Generally speaking, although Okuninushi and Suserihime-no-Mikoto were husband and wife, they basically visited the shrine separately.
This is mainly because Japanese shrines are in charge of different areas and the duties of the priests are very detailed.
To pray for various things such as academic success, health, career, and marriage, you need to visit different shrines to have your wishes fulfilled.
This is different from China. Although Chinese gods also have different duties, when people worship them, there is often confusion among the duties of the gods.
For example, "Master Guan Erye". Basically, you can worship "Master Guan Erye" for whatever you want, and the scope of his duties is constantly expanding according to different needs.
Originally, "Guan Erye" only appeared as an ancestor god and a god of war, but now the most important identity of "Guan Erye" has become the god of wealth.
Not to mention the rest of the Bodhisattvas like Guanyin and Sakyamuni, they have been omnipotent gods since their birth.
Of course, although the division of labor in Japanese shrines is very detailed, in order to attract different tourists, each shrine is actually gradually confusing the concept of priestly duties.
Nowadays, many young people no longer care much about these distinctions and basically do whatever is convenient.
I passed by a shrine on the way and on a whim, I went in to pay my respects.
However, many people still care about the detailed distinction. Therefore, when promoting, many shrines will focus on introducing the main business of the Time Shrine, but they will not cut off or reject some non-main businesses.
Or it can be said that confusing the abilities of priests is the purpose of the shrine, and specializing the abilities of priests is also the purpose of the shrine.
Anyway, the ultimate goal is to attract more people to visit the shrine and increase revenue.
"This shrine is a shrine for matchmaking, right?" After thinking for a while, Kato Megumi said.
"Almost, but it's mainly for those couples who are about to get married, or those who are already married, who come to pray for a happy marriage and a long life together." Yushanhe said
It has to be said that the choice of the priest for the Futuro-Okunoki Shrine is very ingenious, and it is quite normal that the incense is so prosperous.
"Then do I need to step aside for a while?" On the other side, Fujinomiya Ningzi glanced at the two of them and said.
"Let's go in together and just treat it as an ordinary prayer." Hearing this, Yushan Heren shrugged and said.
Kazuto Hayama is not really interested in the various priests in shrines. Basically, no matter which shrine he visits, he just prays for blessings.
"Then go in." Hearing this, Fujinomiya Ningzi smiled and said.
"Senior Kazuto, why are you here?" Just as the three were about to enter the Couple Okuni Shrine, the voice of Yui Doma suddenly came from behind them.
When I turned around, I saw that Domama and others were already approaching.
"Come and take a look at this couple's national shrine." Upon hearing this, Yushan Kazuto couldn't help but say.
"Meeting Okuni Shrine." Doma Yui repeated the name of the shrine.
"Is there anything special about this shrine? It seems to be just a branch shrine, right?"
“Although it’s only a branch shrine, this shrine is actually considered a local of Nara,” Hayama Kazuto said with a smile.
"Local? What do you mean death?" Toumori Sanae also came up and asked.
"It means exactly what it says. The history of this shrine may be even longer than that of Kasuga Taisha Shrine." Yushan Kazuto said.
The shrine in front of them was obviously not as old as Kasuga Taisha, so Hayama and others only talked about the history of the other side.
"Huh? Really? This shrine doesn't look very old!" Doma Mai couldn't help but say.
"No, Umaru-chan, the Evil King's true eyes have seen the ancient aura!" Rikka Takanashi suddenly covered her patched eyes and spoke as if in pain.
Looking at Rikka Takanashi's hard performing, Kazuto Yuyama couldn't help but blink slightly, with a slightly embarrassed expression.
"I'm talking about the history of this shrine's inheritance, not the history of this shrine." Yushan Kazuto said involuntarily.
After listening to Yushan Kazuto's somewhat confusing explanation, even Kato Megumi and Fujinomiya Ningzi became a little curious.
