385,Sakaki tree(2/2)
Her words are frank and sincere,
Su Wu thought for a moment after hearing this, then nodded.
Turning around and walking towards the torii gate of Soseki Shrine: "That's fine."
Soseki Shrine is a small shrine in the country of Hoki, not large in scale.
In addition to the worship hall in the center, the shrine has two attendant halls on the left and right.
but,
There is no accompanying god to worship in the current escort palace.
It has become the residence of the shrine priests.
Occasionally, onmyojis from Heian Kyo's "Onmyo Ryo" pass by Boqi Country. If they have no place to stay for the time being, they will choose to stay at the shrine for one night.
On the large flat land surrounded by these three halls, fine sand is spread. People who come and go to worship in the shrine will step on that layer of fine sand. Over the years, the fine sand has been compacted and formed a thin layer of sand.
soil layer.
Some trees with tall crowns, low hanging strips, and small white flowers on their branches and leaves are rooted on the left and right sides of the fine sand.
Go straight through them and you will enter the main hall of the shrine.
The trees with small white flowers are wrapped with strips of red cloth, as well as various bells and charms. When the breeze blows, the branches of the trees tremble, and the crisp and ethereal sound of the bells lingers here.
Jingle Bell……
Jingle Bell……
Su Wu glanced sideways past the trees,
He saw limbs wrapped around the branches of the trees.
Between those knotted hands and feet, there are clumps of pitch-black hair dancing freely.

But he has experienced too much, and he absolutely believes in his conscious judgment and what he sees with his eyes - that scene just now was definitely not an illusion!
"These trees are called sakaki trees.
It is a good sacrifice to the gods."
Qingzi noticed Su Wu's gaze and explained to him softly.
Su Wu blinked his eyes,
The terrifying scene that had just disappeared suddenly appeared again.
His expression remained unchanged and he said: "It seems that the Lord God is very considerate of the people. He only eats leaves and does not even need animal sacrifices."
Qingzi felt that Su Wu's tone was a bit strange,
But I can’t figure out what’s so strange about it.
She nodded: "It is precisely because of the protection of the gods that our country of Boqi rarely has earthquakes and flash floods. I must be grateful for the protection of the gods..."
Miss Haruko lowered her voice,
He tugged on the hem of Su Wu's shirt and said, "You can't tease the gods in the shrine."
When Su Wu heard this, he didn't comment.
Under the guidance of Haruko, he and Omu walked into the main hall of the shrine.
After entering the spacious but slightly dim main hall,
They saw an acquaintance.
