Three trucks stopped, and several people got out of the truck.
Among them, only Abe Degawa was relatively familiar to me. otbnkotgt "Hello, Mr.
Ba."
He was very polite when he saw me.
He nodded slightly at me and said.
"Oh, you are leading the team this time."
I said with a smile while smoking a cigarette.
"Well, you guys get in the car.
The schedule is quite tight.
You may have to spend tonight in the car.
Please don't mind."
I waved my hand and got into the truck with my luggage.
There were quite a few people sitting behind the truck.
I took a quick look and saw that there were about twenty people, plus the driver and co-driver of the three trucks.
There were nearly thirty people in total participating in this trip to Takamagahara.
Former Riyuro and I found a place to sit down.
The onmyojis in front of us all looked tired, so they nodded politely when they saw us.
"Is this your first time to go to Takamagahara?"
I asked Mae Ryuuro.
"Yes.
I have benefited from you.
However, I also knew in the past that the Abe family was qualified to enter Takamagahara for the annual worship ceremony, but I was not qualified to participate in the past.
This time it will open my eyes."
Former Riyuro He said with a smile.
Entering Takamagahara is equivalent to entering the Japanese divine world.
This is a very high honor for Japanese Onmyoji, and even the glory of the main family.
"Oh, can you tell me about the worship ceremony of the Abe family?"
I asked Riyuro.
"Oh, there are three stages in the Abe family's worship ceremony.
They mainly worship the main god in Japanese mythology, but there are often spirits of small gods floating around in Takamagahara.
If the small gods eat the worship of the big god, then the ritual will be considered failed.
So in the first stage, they will set up a barrier to prevent the dynasty.
The second stage is to ask the witches who have been raised in the family to dance to attract the attention of the main god.
After the main god appears, the presiding onmyoji will present the prepared tribute to the main god and take it away.
These tributes will bring blessings and the worship ceremony will be over.
These three stages basically take a day, the most important of which is whether the witch dances and the main god is willing to accept the tribute.
The witch must keep a pure and clean body and start practicing from a young age.
The higher the talent, the stronger the magic power. .
You will be eligible to become a shrine maiden when you are eighteen years old.
For a miko to live a simple life, she must not get married and have children, and she must also remain a virgin.
This life must last for ten years, during which time the miko will assume important responsibilities in a large family like the Abe family. .
Such as ritual practices and dance work.”
Hearing this, I nodded and looked both ways, but I didn't see the miko.
"Why isn't the miko here?"
I asked.

"Oh, the status of a witch in the family is very high.
It is not easy to cultivate a witch with talent and magic, so she is always hidden like a treasure.
Why would she be placed in such a place?
I guess it is a special arrangement A car took her to Gaotianyuan."
"Oh, did you have a miko in your Tori family before?"
I asked with a smile.
The former Toshiro thought for a while and then said: "There were some in the past.
Although our family has never been as big as Abe or Ashiya, there were still hundreds of people at the peak of the former Toshiro family, and they also trained mikos.
I have done many rituals in many places.
Miko Ren was my sister, but it was a pity that she was killed by the evil god during a ceremony.
After my sister's death, the family's reputation fell into decline.
Feeling sad about the past, she patted him on the shoulder.
"That's right.
You just said that besides shrine maidens, there is another very important part in the worship ceremony.
What is it?"
I quickly changed the subject.
"Oh.
The second link is tribute.
Worshiping the main god is not just playing house.
If you take some substandard tributes, you will be punished by the main god.
So every year, the Abe family prepares very good and large quantities of tributes.
The next two cars There must be a lot of tributes on the truck.”
"Haha, I'm also very curious about Japan's main gods, don't be like Menzu again."
I grinned, the car was swaying, and I saw that it was still early to stop, so I slowly leaned against the car.
Fell asleep.
I slept in a daze for about three or four hours before I was woken up.
"Brother Shan, the car has stopped."
Qian Liyulang said to me.
I rubbed my eyes and stood up.
I jumped out of the car and took a look.
The car had stopped, but it seemed that the place had not been reached yet.
The road ahead was blocked by someone.
Blocked.
"What's going on?"
I walked over and asked strangely.
After hearing my voice, Abe Degawa came over and said, "There are fallen rocks and trees on the road ahead.
I'm having people clean it up."
I thought something serious had happened, so I nodded and turned around, ready to walk over and go back to sleep, but as soon as I took a step, I saw someone carrying something that looked like a lunch box and walking towards the truck behind me.
I'm curious too.
So he asked casually: "Who wants to eat at this late hour?"
Abe Degawa was obviously nervous, but it was not very obvious.
He just said smoothly: "Some people are hungry.
If you want to eat, I will have someone prepare it."
I waved my hand and ignored it, climbed into the truck and continued to sleep in a daze.
After more than half an hour, the truck started to drive slowly, and I fell asleep again in the shaking car.

I didn’t sleep very well this time, maybe because I woke up once before, or maybe because the car shook too much.
I kept waking up from sleep, and I vaguely seemed to see someone looking at me.
But I quickly dismissed it as a dream.
The truck traveled hundreds of kilometers and finally stopped.
The mountain roads in some places were very old and in bad condition.
The truck can't move at any speed.
Sometimes after driving a few kilometers, it has to come down and clean up the garbage on the road before moving on.
So a place that could have been reached in half a day on China's expressways was now a full day's drive away.
"Ahead of us is a village founded by the Abe family near the Takamagahara border.
It will serve as the final destination."
Mae Ryuuro said to me when we got off the car.
I looked up and saw that the village ahead was not big, but it looked like there were quite a few guards.
There were four people standing at the gate alone, and the village was surrounded by a stone wall.
From a distance, it looked more like a fortress built by the Abe family than a village.
The Abe family's logo is printed on the wall.
The truck arrived at the door, and Abe Degawa ordered the door to open before slowly driving in.
I stood outside smoking.
After the door opened, I planned to go in after finishing my cigarette, but I saw a black car driving behind me.
The car stopped not far from me, and then two people hurriedly got out of the car.
Holding the white cloth roll in his arms, he spread it on the ground after getting off the car, and spread it all the way from the car door to the village.
I was stunned when I saw this scene.
Who is so precious?
Can't he get out of the car and take a step?
But that's not all.
Several guards from the Abe family have already walked over to the other side of the gate.
They are waiting with something similar to a sedan.
It seems that when the distinguished guests in the car arrive at the village gate, they will directly get on the sedan and carry it in.
Go inside the house.
I originally planned to walk into the village, but now I became interested and wanted to see who this person was who could not even touch the mud with his feet.
"Dang rang, ding rang" At this time, one of the people who had finished paving the ground walked to the door and opened the car door.
Some crisp noises came from the car door.
At first glance, it sounded like the sound of wind chimes, crisp and sweet.
A girl wearing a red and white witch costume walked out of the car.
She had long black hair.
She lowered her head and wore a white veil on her face.
There was a red dot between her eyebrows.
Her eyes were very clear, maybe they were the eyes I had seen over the years.
The cleanest person.
She stepped on the white cloth, stood up straight, and slowly walked along the white cloth towards the village.
I stood aside and looked at her.
This girl was about twenty years old, but she had very strong spiritual power.
It is not difficult to tell from her dress that she must be the shrine maiden of the Abe family as Riyuro mentioned before.
I heard a sound like wind chimes coming from the hair accessory on her head, which was a silver bell.
She walked in front of me and coughed maybe because of the smell of my cigarette
