This witch is a boy

Just thinking of her fills my body with strength.

As long as I think of her, I seem to be surrounded by love.

But now that she's gone, Ying Siguang can't feel any trace of her existence, and feels heavy and sad. If he can meet her, then there will be a lot of things he wants to say to her.

Where is this place?

hell?Heaven?

Ying Siguang walked in the forest and felt the brilliance of the flashlight, which made him realize that he might still be alive.

"I heard about the Maharaja Kanazhi, the Lord of the Moon Qing Dynasty, Kanazhi, and Aying Liwu Huishi."

Ying Siguang read the name on the tombstone, and suddenly found that he was in a cemetery, and special divine power flowed through the entire cemetery.

The divine power seems to be the same as the divine power of the Sun God of Ise Shrine, but the specific power attributes are completely different, because he himself is a priestess enshrined in Ise Shrine, as long as he is adopted by the Takashi family, and then adopted by the emperor, he will It can become the official fasting palace of Ise Shrine.

The power is wrong.

Ying Siguang fell to the ground, the power of the sun god in his body and the power of the sun god in the cemetery were colliding with each other.

boom.

Ying Siguang fell to the ground, lost the ability to move, and the strength in his body began to dissipate.

"Seniors, seniors, please don't harm me. I'm just an ordinary witch who wants to participate in the trial. I beg you to show mercy and let me pass smoothly."

The girl's frightened voice was heard in a trance, and the light of the flashlight shone everywhere. It seemed that only by holding the flashlight tightly could she feel safe. The ordinary flashlight had now become a magical weapon in the girl's mind.

"It's true that one generation is not as good as the previous generation. It has been passed down to this generation, and the witches of the Shang family are so unbearable, and their courage is smaller than that of a mouse."

There was a sound of sighing, and the girl who was holding the flashlight was so frightened that she threw the flashlight in her hand on the ground. A beautiful witch looked at the girl who was being tested and said, "Xia Miwei, hello, I am Baishi Tayang, you are the examiner who became the priestess trial this time."

"Hello, Miss Tayang, Wan An, I am Xia Miwei, a descendant of the Shang family. I have heard your legends and deeds since I was a child. You are the strongest witch in history. Your story has inspired our contemporary witches to this day. So please accept my admiration, and I feel an indescribable joy and honor to have you as my examiner."

Xia Mi saluted her slightly, although she was saying praises, her hands and thighs were trembling, which was obviously insincere, even though the other party was the strongest shrine maiden in history, she was a ghost who had been dead for 600 years.

The strongest shrine maiden in history, Baishi Tayang, has a name I have never heard of.

Although Ying Siguang couldn't move his body, his mind was thinking about what is the strongest shrine maiden in the world, and who is brazen enough to occupy this title.

"First of all, the first question, do you really want to be a priestess, and you want to be the king of Wende?" Baishi Tayang asked with a smile, and accepted Xia Miwei's praise.

"It's not so much that I thought about it, it's better to say that my grandma thought about it. I agreed because of helplessness." The girl sighed.

"You mean to say that you don't want to be the king of Wende, let alone a witch."

The voice of Baishi Tayang was transmitted in the cemetery, and the huge power was gathered because of her words. She said slowly, "Then, you can go back. There is no need to participate in the trial here. People who don't want to be witches He is not qualified to be the Maharaja of Wen De."

"I just don't want to, it doesn't mean I'm inappropriate, Miss Ta Yang, please don't deny my qualifications."

"But, didn't you say that you don't want to be the Maharaja of Wen De?"

"Grandma wants me to be one! That's enough."

"But what's the point of this? Just like the caged bird, if you don't really want to become a witch, you will only live in pain if you go against your heart, and you will not be able to fulfill your mission." own responsibilities and obligations."

"Is it enough to leave the caged bird and gain freedom? The bird that is served by humans has long lost the ability to fly high and look for food. It lives in a luxurious cage built for it by humans. , performing and singing for humans, pleasing humans with its own appearance, it has already lost the ability to live independently."

Xia Mi looked at the sky slightly, and said with some longing, "A bird that has left the cage does not mean freedom when it comes to the sky. It needs to fly non-stop, to find food for survival, to migrate, to run around according to the trajectory, It just seems free."

"But have you ever thought that a bird will give up its cage and its comfortable life, just because it yearns for freedom, maybe this freedom is not real freedom, but human beings already feel that they are free when they look at the birds flying in the sky After leaving the cage, the life of the little bird may become better, maybe happier, maybe the life of the little bird will be worse, more melancholy, maybe even die, but no matter what, the little bird will live a completely different life from before. A different life, this is freedom, because the little bird has the power to choose!"

When Baishi Tayang said this, he said in a low tone, "Food, spouse, survival, reproduction, and death are bestowed by human beings. This is not freedom."

"Then this is a choice. No one can get 100% freedom, but for the sake of one's own family, giving up part of one's own freedom is undoubtedly love. Love gives birth to responsibility, but responsibility is not love. Parenting Having a child of your own means giving up the freedom to play freely, and you can't live happily in the world of two people, and the union of husband and wife also gives up part of your own freedom."

Xia Mi looked at Baishi Tayang slightly, "I participated in the trial not for myself, but for the family I love. I gave up my freedom, but if I give up my freedom, it is not freedom."

The girl was silent, the cemetery became quiet, and the light of stars emerged. Ying Siguang even applauded involuntarily when he heard these words. What he said was really great. If it wasn't for his sister, for his family, How could he be a witch as a boy.

The sound of applause was particularly harsh in the quiet night. Baishi Tayang looked at Ying Siguang who fell on the ground not far away, with a shocked expression on his face. It stands to reason that only Shang, a descendant of the Sun God, could enter the trial. In the cemetery, Xia Miwei's face also changed. As the descendant and heir of the Shang Dynasty, the descendant of the Sun God, he is the only one, why is there one more person now.

"Who are you?" Baishi Tayang felt the faint breath of the sun god on his body, and said, "Then please answer me, do you want to become a priestess who worships the sun?"

"I'm already a priestess who worships the sun, why do I need to prove and approve?" Ying Siguang said weakly, but his tone was very firm.

"Without my approval, you are not qualified to say that you are a priestess who worships the sun." Baishi Tayang said angrily.

"The sun does not need the approval of others to become the sun, and the priestess who worships the sun naturally does not need the approval of others. As long as she has a heart to worship the sun, then she is a priestess who worships the sun." Ying Siguang said firmly, "I am Yi..."

"That's enough, Miss Tayang, these words are not unreasonable, please decide between me and her who is the priestess of the sacrifice, the future maharaja of Okinawa."

Xia Mi interrupted the girl slightly, looked at Baishi Tayang and said solemnly, "I accept your decision."

"Very well, Xia Miwei, since there is only one person who has succeeded the highest priestess of the Maharaja Wende, there is no precedent for two people appearing, so as long as you kill her, you will be the next generation of priestesses."

After Baishi Tayang finished speaking, cold sweat broke out on Ying Siguang's forehead. Why does being a witch end with murder? Don't you know that this behavior is illegal?

Xia Mi slightly saw the girl lying on the ground, who seemed to be injured, pointed the light of the flashlight at her. Just when Ying Siguang thought she was about to make a move, he saw her turn her head and said to Bai Shitatang, "Kill It is unkind for the weak to gain merit and achievement, it is unrighteous to see death and not to save it, it is unwise to put the status of a mere witch above human life, it is unwise to pursue the opponent knowingly that he is injured, it is unmartial, it is impolite for the noble to use whatever means, I thought it was unbelief to give up my previous promise.”

"If I kill her, complete the trial, become a witch, and do this kind of unrighteous, unwise, disrespectful, disrespectful behavior, I will still be eligible to become the supreme witch."

Xia Mi shook his head slightly and refused, "Even if the other party has the same Sun God bloodline as me, I am willing to compete fairly with her."

"Then it's a pity, Xia Miwei, your trial failed this time." Baishi Tayang sighed and disappeared after speaking.

Chapter 82 In Okinawa

Shuri Castle International Park

Ying Siguang looked at his broken cell phone and wanted to contact his partner in Ise Shrine, but seeing the shrine maidens coming and going, he was frightened for a while.

It's not the maiden costume of white clothes and scarlet pants, nor the maiden costume of Chihaya, but the white maiden costume. There are no priests, but only priestesses.

This is definitely not the local shrine, the place where Japanese Shintoism is located, but Okinawa Shintoism, or Ryukyu Shintoism.

The state religion of the ancient Ryukyu Kingdom, even though the Ryukyu Kingdom has now become part of the Japanese prefecture as Okinawa Prefecture, it does not mean that Okinawa Shintoism is a part of it.

It's over, it's over, why did I fall to Okinawa.

Takashiko took out a handkerchief and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead. You must know that your identity is the next generation of Ise Shrine. Although he has no prejudice against Okinawa Shintoism, whether it is Okinawa or Okinawa Shintoism may be very important to him He is quite hostile to the Ise Shrine behind him.

The official textual research from scholars has consistently argued that Okinawa and Japan have the same language and species, and the sun god of Okinawa Shintoism, Hi no Omi, is Amaterasu Omikomi.

Regardless of what the government thinks about Ise Jingu's position on this point, the attitude of both the imperial family and Ise Jingu is very clear. Ise Jingu must recognize the other party as a relative.

If it was in the mainland, Eagle Siguang would not be afraid of his identity being exposed at all, but in Okinawa this is completely different, basically he has become a street rat, in a sense he is in the range of an enemy country.

It's no secret that Okinawa is unfriendly to mainland Japan.

"May I ask who is the girl who saved me?"

Ying Siguang asked the witches who were busy in and out of the palace. The place here is called Shurijo Castle International Park. It is a palace rebuilt from Shurijo Castle, the capital of the Ryukyu Kingdom in the past. Licheng Wangcheng became Shurijo Castle International Park, just like the Forbidden City in Ming and Qing Dynasties became the Palace Museum.

"You mean His Highness Xia Miwei?" the witch asked back?

"You mean that the girl who saved me was Xia Miwei?" Ying Siguang asked back, he really didn't know the other party's name, but why the other party was called His Highness.

"Don't call His Highness Xia Miwei's name directly, and add His Highness's honorific title after the name. Are you from Okinawa?"

The witch complained, while taking out the brochure issued by Shuri Castle International Park, and handed it to Takashiko.

Takashiko was helpless, wanted to say that he was not from Okinawa, but couldn't say it out. Looking at the cover of the brochure, he was wearing a cool short-sleeved shirt, with a good appearance and a slim figure, with a string of white pearls on his chest. , with a European and American style princess crown on her forehead, holding a sun umbrella and standing in the empty Shuri Castle Royal Palace.

This kind of dress looks very much like the prince of the royal family, whether it is the contemporary Ise Sai Palace or Prince Keiko attended the event.

The princess of the Ryukyu Kingdom, and the next great lord Natsumi Wei.

Born in Fujian, China, primary school and junior high school are divided into Fuzhou Experimental Primary School and Fuzhou No. 16 Middle School, and high school is in Okinawa County No. [-] High School for Girls. She is [-] years old and is a child of the same age as herself.

Her father and mother are unknown, but the only thing that can be known is that she is the granddaughter of the current Wende Dajun Xia Chuan Qihai, and Xia Chuan Qihai's real name is Shang Zhen, and her father is the former head of the Marquis family of the Shang family. Okinawa, became a revivalist who revived Okinawa Shintoism.

Natsukawa Nanami was mentioned in the lectures at Ise Shrine. Of course, in the view of Ise Sai Palace Shirakawa House, Natsukawa Nanami, the maharaja who has heard so much, is not so much a religious title as a political one. Attributes.

As the leader of Ryukyu Shintoism, Natsukawa Qihai is a political figure who has the support of all Okinawa and is loyal to her. Even if she doesn't care about anything, she is also the spiritual leader of Ryukyu Shintoism and the people of Okinawa.

If Okinawa becomes independent in the future, Xia Chuan Qihai must be the future queen of Okinawa, and Xia Miwei, as the next generation of Wende Maharaja, must be the next queen.

In a sense, a woman who is nobler than her own status.

Ying Siguang laughed at himself, when he saw the witches looked at him strangely and said, "Master Yudian wants to see you, please come with us."

"Who is Lord Yudian?"

"The owner of this palace, His Royal Highness Maharaja Xia Chuan Qihai."

*

"——Seeing Zunyan, I am extremely terrified. Lord Yudian."

"You are very welcome, princess of noble birth, came to Naha from Ise all the way."

"Young lady, I would like to ask you to give me more advice, but I am extremely terrified. I am really sorry for how dare you pretend to be a princess in front of Lord Yudian."

"What are you afraid of? My mother, Naomi Tomoko, is from the Saga Marquis family. My elder sister Kujo Mami married the eldest son of the Kujo family, and my elder brother married the princess of the Nijo family. Her mother is Taka People from the Si family, we are considered relatives."

Xia Chuan Qihai looked at the "girl" with her head lowered in fear, with a smile on her lips, Ying Siguang raised his head in a daze, and couldn't help but use the elegant language of Kyoto just now.

The language used by the royal family is Heyin, while the nobles use the Kyoto dialect, which is completely different from the Kyoto dialect of the common people, and is an elegant language popular among the upper classes.

The Marquis of Saga is a close relative of the royal family. The more famous one is that Saga Hao married Pujie, the younger brother of the last emperor Puyi. Kujo Mami is the daughter-in-law of the Kujo family of the contemporary Sheguan family. The old man in front of Guanghe is a relative.

This is somewhat similar. Britain and France fought each other for a hundred years of war, but the nobles who fought were relatives of each other, even the king and the king.

"When did you find out?" Ying Siguang asked with a wry smile.

After the Kingdom of Ryukyu was annexed, Ryukyu became Okinawa, and the king of Ryukyu became part of the princely family of the Chinese system and became a marquis. The Korean royal family also received this kind of treatment. Because of the "merger of Japan and South Korea", the Korean royal family enjoyed Japan. Royal treatment, becoming King Lee of Changdeokgung Palace.

"Xia Miwei said that she rescued a witch who also has the blood of the sun god, so I asked her to give me your photo, and then I discovered your identity, the future Ise Shrine, from the Yingsi family Princess, I heard that you will be adopted by the emperor, marry the prince of the royal family, and become the mother of a country, is this true?"

"There is absolutely no such thing." Ying Siguang looked flustered, how did this rumor spread.

Wende Maharaja chuckled and said, "Okay, I'm not joking, you should be injured by the way you look, and you should cultivate yourself in Okinawa. Okinawa is not as terrible as you imagined, but in order to avoid trouble, your identity is still not Leak it casually, even Xiao Wei had better not let her know."

The Ryukyu royal family was forced to live in Tokyo. Historically, like the occupied Korean royal family, they not only intermarried with the Japanese royal family but also intermarried with the upper-class nobles. Therefore, the blood of the Ryukyu royal family is quite pure, almost half of Japan noble.

Natsukawa Nanami grew up in Tokyo. Not only is her blood biased towards Japanese nobles, but her education and etiquette are not so much Okinawa, but more like Japanese noble women.

"It's letting who I am now determine where I stand."

Chapter 81

There was a chill in the night, and the wind felt even colder on the body. The bright moon hung high in the sky, and the cold light shone on the ground like a silver glow.

Shinyouda Kuro walked on the path in the forest, carrying two fish in his hands and walking towards the road to the temple, which brought him back to the bloody days when he was a samurai in a trance.

The bright moonlight shines in the sky, and you can still see the surrounding scenery to some extent. There is no sound, and you can't even hear the barking of dogs. If you want to stray wild dogs, you may be brought directly by the hungry people as soon as you hear the barking. have eaten.

The temple is dilapidated, and it has been around for some years. It is estimated that the temple was built during the reign of Emperor Shirakawa. It has been more than half a month since Shinyouda Kuro came here, and he is very familiar with the surrounding environment. Under the faint moonlight, he groped forward , a huge tree stands there, it looks quite old, the leaves are blown by the wind, and there is a rustling sound, and the exuberant vitality makes Shin Uda Kuro envious.

Half a month ago, 24 soldiers from the 16 countries of the Eastern Army and 11 soldiers from the 22 countries of the Western Army screamed and killed in Kyoto, a population of only [-]. The originally prosperous Kyoto suddenly became a hell on earth.

Even the emperor's Kyoto Imperial Palace was not spared. Emperor Goto Mimon and Emperor Hou Garden took refuge in General Ashikaga's house in an emergency.

No matter how arrogant the samurai under General Yamana Sozen of the Western Army and General Katsumoto Hosokawa of the Eastern Army were, it would be fine to burn down the emperor's palace, but they couldn't burn down the general's mansion anyway.

However, neither the Eastern Army nor the Western Army dared to burn the general's official residence. The homes of ordinary people in Kyoto were homeless under the fire of the chaotic war. The displacement of the people was extremely tragic.

People die all the time, either because of war, or because of hunger, or because of sickness.

The yard was quiet, and Shinmata Kuro stepped into the yard cautiously, for fear of waking up some indescribable existence.

The temple was dilapidated, and the only place where people could live was the thatched hut that he and his companions temporarily built. There was nothing valuable here. The reason why he stayed in this dilapidated temple for so long was that he couldn't leave at all.

There are many babies wrapped in swaddling clothes on the grass in the temple, most of them are babies, because they probably know that this is a temple, and they can’t help but control their compassion, so they accept the first baby After that, there were more and more babies in the temple.

Picking up a kitchen knife and slapping the fish to death, Shinmata Kuro felt a little helpless. It was not his wish to kill fish for cooking, but his companions in the temple were all monks and monks, and they needed to abide by the rules and regulations. It would be a shame to let them kill The crime is so serious that I can only let myself, a samurai, do it myself.

There is not enough manpower in the temple, and he can only do things like killing animals by himself, and he is also in charge of things like changing these babies' diapers.

The reason why I have been staying for half a month now is because there is no way to abandon the babies in the temple. At least I have to help them find a good family to adopt. But now the army is in chaos and there are refugees everywhere, so let the good family adopt this A group of children have to think long term.

"My Buddha is merciful, I hope this chaos will end soon."

Shinmata Kuro sighed, prayed to the Buddha, remembered the lost host, and felt that he had no sense of security all of a sudden, as if he had no backbone.

"Sure enough, to be a samurai, do you have to have a lord who you can be loyal to?"

Shinmata Kuro cut open the fish and shaved off the bones. He planned to cook the fish and break it up for the babies to eat. If he wanted to find milk, he had to rely on his relationship. Going to the head of the next village to get some milk was not enough at all. These babies eat.

"Are you here again?"

Shinmata Kuro frowned, picked up his kitchen knife, and rushed straight into the yard.
