This witch is a boy

Afraid that the wrath of the gods would come down and hurt her sister and Li, she told Hino Rei that she wanted to go out to make soy sauce, but the soy sauce in the shrine seemed to be insufficient, so she just found a terrible excuse and ran out.

Hino Rei didn't mean to object either, she just told him to come back early.This reason appeared very appropriate, the soy sauce in the shrine was indeed running out.

The shrine naturally does not refer to the Huochuan Shrine, but that will did not clearly state the name of the shrine or where it is.

Matsudaira was a little distressed, and could only go to the shrine with his own deep feeling.

Theoretically, believers will be very happy to see the gods, and it is not surprising that they are so happy that they become saints immediately. This is a miracle.

But for Matsuhira, whose father is a university professor and has studied Marxism, it is a bit distressing.

One cannot live without faith, but that is not necessarily religious belief.

The gods are great, but what does it matter to me if the gods are great!

He can't bring me benefits, why should I believe in him.

However, the painting style of the gods enshrined in my home is like this. If you believe in me, although it can't bring you any benefits on weekdays, but if you don't believe in me, believe it or not, I will bring you disaster every minute.

Being a witch is a complete disaster for Hikaru Matsuhira, he is a good boy, who wants to dress up as a witch.However, if he doesn't become a witch, his family will be gone. If he persists, his sister might be gone.

This is really speechless!

Chapter 15 Higurashi Shrine

Running straight down from the Huochuan Shrine towards the distance, I just walked by feeling, and soon came to another shrine.

"The Higurashi Shrine."

Looking at the big signboard on the shrine, Hikaru Matsuhira stopped his steps.

The name Higurashi seems familiar.

Japanese shrines are spread all over the country, and it is not uncommon to hide them in cities and mountains.Compared with the Huochuan Shrine, which has a mountain, the Higurashi Shrine is not only much smaller, but also the number of believers is half dead. Looking at the surrounding buildings, the stone lions and stone lanterns all look shabby.

In fact, this is also a realistic portrayal of this country. Even the gods can be mixed with good and bad, and the same is true for shrines. It was quite depressing.

At least in the eyes of Matsudaira, the Higurashi Shrine in front of him is as miserable as it is, and it cannot be compared with the Hikawa Shrine of the Hino Reika.

The maiden in white clothes and scarlet trousers is sweeping the floor, which is also a beautiful view of the shrine. The significance of the maiden sweeping the floor is not only for cleaning, but also for purifying dirt and cultivating oneself.

"Student Guang, why are you here?"

The maiden sweeping the floor put down the broom in her hand, and couldn't help being surprised when she saw the boy standing at the gate of the shrine. It turned out to be her classmate Matsuhira Hikaru.

"Kagome, so you are a priestess in this shrine, Higurashi Shrine, Higurashi Kagome, your shrine is really shabby, just like you."

Matsuhira looked at the miko at the door, and suddenly realized that it was an acquaintance, Higurashi Kagome, a woman who ran to report to the teacher.

Matsuhira recalled his ugly mood when he was taught by Guanyue Gefan, and he didn't feel very angry with Kagome Higurashi.

Higurashi Kagome, Higurashi Shrine, as long as you hear the name, you can tell that Higurashi Kagome is a child of the Shinto family,

Matsuhira was angry when he saw her, so naturally he wouldn't give her a good look, but strictly speaking, there was nothing wrong with what he said, and the Higurashi Shrine was really shabby.

Of course, this is to be compared with Huochuan Shrine, which had the highest status before the war and accepted the worship of the emperor. Many shrines are actually on the same level as Higurashi Shrine. If it is a rural shrine, it may be even worse than Higurashi Shrine.

"Matsuhira Hikaru, is this your attitude towards people? Are the old Chinese great? You are a sissy."

Higurashi Kagome put down the broom in his hand, only felt an insult, saying this kind of fact was too much, and blurted out vicious words, but just as soon as he said the words, he felt that he had said too much.

"It's better than ordinary people who can only tell small stories. During the Meiji Restoration, the shrine was rebuilt, and Higurashi's surname was changed. It's really a ostentatious family."

Song Pingguang said coldly, Huo Da, it is super Huo Da, to say that about him, and even say his taboo nouns.

He did not shy away from exposing the shortcomings of Higurashi's family. He knew all the information about this shrine, and there was no other reason, because this shrine had been carefully recorded in his family's information.

The Yuzawa family is a daimyo, a vassal of the Tokugawa shogunate. Although it is based on connections, it is still a daimyo after all.

In the Edo period, there was also an annual income of [-] shi of grain, but the Edo shogunate had a system called Sanqin Kokoku, and daimyos had to spend half of their time in Edo every two years to help the general handle official duties.

If it is sealed in Hokkaido, there are only [-] to [-] koku of the small daimyo, and I am afraid that if they come to Edo to complete the account, the daimyo's treasury will go bankrupt.

Matsudaira is a famous family name, and with only [-] shi, the territory is naturally near Edo, which is used to defend the general's house and directly becomes the Dingfu.

Everyone knows that Edo in the past is now Tokyo. After the Meiji Restoration, the modern city developed, and the scope of Tokyo is very large. Therefore, it is a coincidence that the Higurashi Shrine of Higurashi Kagome’s family was before the abolition of the feudal clan and the establishment of the prefecture. This place of home happened to be the domain ruled by the Matsudaira family.

To be honest, this is actually a kind of fate. The name of ten thousand stones is not important at all. The Yuzawa family has only 200 villages in charge of three or four thousand people. By the end of the Tokugawa period, the Yuzawa family had 36 villages after more than [-] years of development. , You can barely say that you are a township head or a town head.

However, it is such a small territory of Yuzefan, and the territory happens to include Higurashi Shrine.

"I don't know what you said. I only know that our Higurashi family served the shrine a long time ago. The history of this shrine dates back to the Warring States Period, which is much longer than your family's history."

Higurashi Kagome said angrily, just now he felt a little guilty about being a sissy to the other party, but now it is completely gone. Matsuhira Hikaru is really a soulless guy.

"Haha, what a joke, what's the relationship with your family? It's a dilapidated household, but there are no children with no parents. My Yuzawa family has four official positions from generation to generation. Although the territory is small, it is a pro-vassal daimyo with the status of the lord of the country. I have participated in the shogunate In terms of bloodlines, he is the court official, the Fujiwara clan..."

Matsudaira hadn't finished speaking when she saw Kagome Higurashi's tears welling up, suddenly she didn't know what to say and couldn't continue.

"Hey, don't cry!"

Song Pingguang was a little at a loss, how could he become his own girl all of a sudden, he didn't intend to be like this.

"I'm sorry, okay? Look at my family. It was originally from the Fujiwara clan of our own family. Later, I changed my surname to Yingji. With the help of the Tokugawa shogunate, I changed my surname to Matsudaira. After the Meiji Restoration, after watching the shogunate fall, I changed my surname again. Yu Ze, you see my surname is Songping again now, have you read "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", my family changes surnames frequently, is it more slaves with three surnames than Lu Bu's slaves with three surnames?"

Hikaru Matsuhira looked at the people around and was attracted by the sight of Kagome Higurashi crying. After all, it was a shrine, and there were people visiting it, so it was inevitable to be pointed at by the people around.

"Also, my family's family lineage is very messy. For example, my family comes from the Fujiwara family, but later changed my surname to Matsudaira. It was nothing. My ancestors belonged to the Fujiwara family, but when the fifth generation headed it, it was the Kii Tokugawa family. The adopted son suddenly became a descendant of Tokugawa Ieyasu, but the 5th generation patriarch was the son of the 6th generation patriarch, and now he became a descendant of the Fujiwara family in blood, and then the two families took turns. Be the head of the house."

"So, I am the real wild child. Whether I am a descendant of Tokugawa Ieyasu or a descendant of Fujiwara Michizane, I am not sure whether I am a descendant of this generation."

Higurashi Matsudaira complained helplessly, Kagome Higurashi, who was already in tears, laughed through tears, looked at Matsudaira and said, "How can you say that about your own family?"

"It's fine if you don't cry. I'm sorry just now. I didn't mean it. I just saw that you often called me small reports, so..."

Hikaru Matsuhira spread his hands helplessly, after thinking it over, in fact, Kagome often reported to him was not worth mentioning at all.

"Sorry."

Kagome Higurashi lowered her head and said, "It's just that it's wrong to just fight, if you get hurt..."

"I don't care about such things..."

Matsuhira said indifferently, suddenly remembered an important thing.

The Ueno Hazawa family is a branch of the Gongqing Yingsi family, also known as the Yingsi Matsudaira family. Later, because the elder sister of his ancestor married a general of the Tokugawa shogunate, he became the Imperial Household. Became a samurai, became a shogun's retainer, and was promoted from a banner samurai to a daimyo.

The first patriarch married the daughter of Tokugawa Yoshinobu, the first vassal lord of the Tokugawa Gosan family. In other words, the Takashi family became the grandson-in-law of Tokugawa Ieyasu.

Being given the surname Matsudaira as a pro-vassal daimyo is not only due to the relationship with the shogun's family, but also the close relationship with the Tokugawa family is also an important factor.

Afterwards, in order to consolidate the relationship with Kii Tokugawa, one of the three royal families, the fourth-generation patriarch welcomed the son of the Kii feudal lord and became a real pro-vassal daimyo when he clearly had his own son to inherit.

If the Shogun’s family has no descendants, it will be inherited by people from the Gosan family. If the Gosan family has no descendants, they will welcome adopted sons from their own sub-vassals. branch.

If the Yusan family is the backup of the General's family, then Yu Lianzhi is the backup of the Yusan family. If you are lucky enough to inherit the Yusan family, you will have the opportunity to inherit the General's family. Possibly, only theoretically possible.

Of course, the fifth-generation patriarch adopted the son of the fourth-generation patriarch as his heir.So this is a more interesting scene.

The members of the Ueno Hazawa family (the Takashi Matsudaira family) first adopted the Tokugawa family as adopted sons and inherited the Hazawa domain. Adopted son, alternate inheritance.

This kind of situation is also quite famous in Japan. It is called two dynasties, and the two lines inherit each other. This is how Ashikaga Yoshimitsu peacefully resolved the issue of the Northern and Southern Dynasties.

Simply put, you are the emperor of this generation, but you have to adopt my son to be the emperor of the next generation, and after my son becomes the emperor, he will adopt your son's son (grandson) to become the emperor, and the two chakras will take turns to be the emperor. .

This situation of the Yuzawa family continued until the end of the Tokugawa period, but he saw that in his family tree, there was only the blood of the Takashi Matsudaira family, and there was no blood of the Tokugawa family.

Could it be that the two families happened to have no sons, only daughters, and a family with only sons, and then the two merged.

But there is no such record in modern times. Suddenly Matsuhira thought of his sister, maybe he and his sister are not biological.

In other words, my sister and him, one of them belonged to the Fujiwara family and the other belonged to the Tokugawa family.

No, Matsuhira Hikaru, you can't think about it like this, that's your own sister.

Song Pingguang shook his head, thinking that he probably thought too much.

Chapter 16 Jade of the Four Souls

"Yesterday, Mr. Guang didn't seem to come to class. According to the teacher, your house seems to be..."

Kagome Higurashi asked suspiciously, even though Teacher Guanyue Gefan said so, she didn't really believe the news.

In her eyes, Song Pingguang is a young master from the old Chinese family. His family is quite rich. He has a very gentle and beautiful sister, but he has a bad temper.

A very beautiful person, although she knows that "beautiful" is a taboo for Matsuhira, but she still thinks in her heart that even as a girl, she will be attracted by her beauty.

This beautiful girl's appearance even made her almost mistake him for a girl when she met him for the first time. She was even more popular in school, and was evaluated as "the flower of Gaoling in a boy's uniform".

"Flower of Gaoling", literally means flower on the high mountain.

Since it is a high mountain, it is naturally a beautiful thing that can only be seen from a distance and not played with.

However, the true meaning of Matsuhira Hikaru's high mountain flower is that because he is a boy, he must not make a move, he will bend!

Yes, that's right.

After Hikaru Matsuhira transferred to Kagome's school, there was an endless stream of boys who confessed to him in the school. Some of them met the girl for the first time and couldn't figure out the gender of the other party. I thought it was love at first sight.

Afterwards, he bought a bouquet of flowers and confessed enthusiastically, but of course the end result was that he was beaten up by Matsuhira Hikaru.

Maybe it's because of this pretty face that Matsuhira felt a little helpless, so as long as he said he was pretty, like a girl, or wanted to confess, he would fight with the other party.

"For a man's self-esteem?"

Higurashi Kagome really can't understand, she looks so good-looking, so pleasing to the eye, such a beauty is very comfortable even for her to look at, and she is also very eye-catching!

In Japan, there is no distinction between men and women in the pursuit of beauty. The reason why the hero Hikaru in "The Tale of Genji" has attracted countless people since he was a child is because of his extraordinary beauty.

"My family's house disappeared inexplicably."

Matsuhira said helplessly that he didn't know what Kagome was thinking at this time, but he was still a little depressed about his house that suddenly collapsed.

"Is that little villa cursed by God in Tokyo your house?"

Higurashi Kagome thought of the news about the sudden popularity among classmates recently, combined with Matsuhira Hikaru's recent situation, it was really impossible not to think of it.

"Cursed by God..."

Hikaru Matsudaira felt a little helpless when he read this sentence. The mayor of his home area was fearing that the world would not be chaotic, and he was hyping up the news about his home, as if he wanted to create a supernatural tourist attraction.

Higurashi Kagome peeked at Matsuhira Hikari with a distressed expression, feeling a little surprised, this was completely different from the annoying Matsuhira Hikari shown in school.

The person in front of him is much gentler, and as an old Chinese, he doesn't look domineering. He is very easy to approach, and he can smoothly answer the topics of ordinary people.

Matsuhira Hikaru, who does not move and fights, and who troubles those around him, is really two completely different people.

"Tell me why classmate Guang likes to fight."

Through the chat with Hikari Matsuhira before, Higure Kagome seemed to have grown courageously, looked up at him and couldn't help asking, this is something she was very curious about, why she behaved completely differently in front of herself and in front of her classmates.

"Who told them to talk nonsense, knowing that I'm a boy, and confessing on purpose, and looking at me with disgusting eyes, it's really uncomfortable."

Song Pingguang said bluntly that he didn't hide it. Everyone knew that he was a boy, but he ran over to confess his life.

Especially when walking on the road, Matsuhira felt helpless from the bottom of his heart when he was looked at with some kind of disgusting eyes by his fellow males.

"I'm not afraid of your jokes, I was molested by the punks before, if sister Li wasn't by my side..."

Matsuhira stopped, and looked at Kagome Higurashi with some surprise, when did he have such a good relationship with her.

He even said these things to her, and the other party didn't seem to call himself Matsudaira-san like before, but called himself Hikari-san.

Higurashi Kagome was a little moved, but after hearing his explanation, he understood a lot of things in his heart. Matsuhira Hikari at school might not be him, but just his appearance, and no one understood him from the bottom of his heart.

People just build Matsuhira as they imagined, so who is the real Matsuhira?

"Young man, I think you have exquisite bones, and you are destined to my shrine. This is the most important treasure of my shrine, a treasure called 'Jade of the Four Souls'. Now that you are destined, you don't need 20 or 98, but only [-]." Thousand nine hundred and ninety-eight, bring home the jade of the four souls."

A sudden voice came out from Kagome's side, and an old man wearing a priest's robe rushed to the middle of Kagome and Matsuhira Hikaru and blocked the road.

"Grandpa, why are you here?"

Kagome Higurashi was a little surprised, how could her grandfather appear suddenly, and without anyone noticing it.

"Ah, is this your boyfriend? I didn't expect Kagome to grow up too, and it's the age for her boyfriend to go home."

The old man said sourly, which directly made Kagome blush and said in displeasure, "Grandpa, what are you talking about, Guangjun and I are just ordinary classmates."

"Student, Kagome, you haven't brought your classmates to the house yet, how about this, since you and Kagome are classmates, young man, then this thing will be sold to you cheaply."

Grandpa Kagome took out a crystal clear bead from his pocket, shining brightly in the setting sun.

Hanging on the jade beads is a small sign that reads "Amulet of Higurashi Shrine", which is connected to the metal piece with a thread.
