I was a swordsman in ancient Japan

Seeing that Ogata started to use sleep skills, A-Machi also started to use sleep skills as if he was going to fight against Ogata.

The two used sleeping techniques alternately to counter each other.

Either Ogata was thrown to the ground by Ogata, or Ogata was thrown to the ground by Ogata.

The tatami mats were constantly knocked out with a "bang bang bang" sound.

After exchanging offense and defense for several rounds in a row, at Ogata's suggestion, A-Machi changed into her ninja uniform.

Both of them drank a lot of wine just now, and because of the several rounds of intense sparring just now, their bodies are sweating now.

So even wearing a cool ninja uniform, A-Machi will not feel cold.

Ninja uniforms are very convenient for activities.

And because A-Machi is used to wearing ninja clothes, his combat power can be easily improved after wearing ninja clothes.

Ogata wants to take on Machi, who is firing on all cylinders.

So at Ogata's request, A-Machi changed into her ninja costume.

After changing his costume, Ah-cho's movements became more agile and sharper.

And Ogata also showed some real skills.

After all, this is just a discussion for fun.

Ogata didn't take it too seriously, and poured water everywhere.

Sometimes he even deliberately let Ah-ding break free from his control.

Gradually, Ogata couldn't remember how long their sparring had been going on.

All he knew was that under the influence of alcohol, he got better and better.

And Machi is similar.

Emotions are getting agitated.

Before they knew it, the two suddenly realized that it was dawn.

Chapter 465 The Man Who Holds a Gun in His Left Hand and a Knife in His Right [8200 words]

Yesterday, Ogata and Ah-Ming had a great time outside, and they were in a good mood.

The good mood and alcohol made Ogata more excited and energetic than usual last night.

When Ogata felt that his physical strength was almost exhausted, he just noticed that the surrounding light had brightened and the originally dark sky outside the window began to shine.

"A-Machi, A-Machi." Ogata grabbed A-Machi's shoulders and shook A-Machi vigorously, "It's dawn, didn't you say you want to watch the New Year's sunrise? Wake up."

A night without sleep coupled with intense exhaustion made A-Ming in a state of half-asleep and half-awake.

Ogata shook her vigorously a few times, and she finally managed to regain some energy, and opened her eyes slightly wider.

"Is it dawn?"

"That's right." Ogata pulled the quilt aside and wrapped it around A-Machi, who had only his upper body in the ninja uniform, and then supported A-Machi to sit by the window.

By the way, the female ninja uniform on the lower body was casually thrown to a corner of the room.

As for when it was thrown over, because he drank a lot of wine last night, Ogata is not too clear about the details.

"Look, my method is very effective, right?" Ogata said to A-Machi in a half-joking tone, "In this way, you can see the New Year's sunrise on time, and you don't have to worry about oversleeping."

"This way of watching the New Year's sunrise, I don't want to try it a second time. I'm so tired and sleepy." A-Ming yawned a lot, then raised his fingers to rub it thanks to someone last night, and now he still feels a little uncomfortable. Comfortable throat.

The two sitting side by side by the window focused on the changes in the sky outside the window.

The luck is quite good, not only yesterday's New Year's Eve was a sunny day, but today's New Year's Day is also the kind of good weather that will make people feel better involuntarily.

The dark sky first slowly turns blue, with a bit of dark purple, then light red, then peach, and then pink.

It's not just the sky that changes color.

Looking down the sky, the buildings within the field of vision gradually emerged from the darkness.

Everything as far as the eye could see was shrouded in a faint pink light.

With the anticipation of thousands of people sitting and watching the New Year’s sunrise, the sun finally came out.

A bright twilight slowly emerged from Tiandong.

Then, the birds that had been silent all night also began to chirp, fluttering up and down.

Although there is still a thin shadow floating on the sky, but deep in the dawn, a bright red morning glow suddenly blooms.

The clouds in the sky were dyed a faint golden color.

Rows of golden clouds lined up around the sun, like courtiers waiting for a king.

The pale pink sky slowly turns into the clear blue of winter.

"It's been three years since I was in Kansei," A-cho murmured, looking at the sun.

To be more precise, at 0:[-] a.m. a few hours ago, the time has already jumped to three years of Kanjeong

However, in the time view of people in this era, there is no such concept that the next day is after 0 o'clock in the morning.

So in Ah-Ming's cognition, it is a new day when the sun rises.

Words cannot describe the stunning change from darkness to dawn.

Looking at the gorgeous morning glow outside the window, Ogata only felt that it was worthwhile to spend the whole night waiting for the New Year's sunrise.

Ating, who was half asleep and half awake, was also full of joy when he saw the dawn, his eyes were no longer sleepy, and he watched the changes in the sky with great interest.

Ogata guessed that A-Machi must be the same as him, and felt that staying up late yesterday was worthwhile.

After watching the New Year's sunrise, the next activity of Ogata and A-machi is naturally to sleep.

After watching the sunrise, the drowsiness and tiredness that had just been suppressed for a while flooded out like a tide, instantly destroying A-cho's consciousness.

A-Machi was so sleepy that he could quickly fall asleep by closing his eyes.

She just wants to sleep now.I just want to get into the bed and have a good sleep, and I don't want to do any other things.

In terms of sleepiness and fatigue, Ogata did not lose to A-Machi.

Because Ogata was basically moving last night, A-Machi spent most of the time lying down or being hugged by Ogata.

So on the first morning of Kansasa's third year, Ogata and A-Machi spent it in their sleep.

Under the effect of "life force", Ogata's physical strength recovered rapidly.

After sleeping in one breath until noon, Xu woke up naturally.

Although I still feel a little dizzy in my head, my body has recovered about 7% of its physical strength.

A-Machi was still in a deep sleep.

Ogata didn't bother A-Ming, and let A-Ming continue to sleep.

I went outside to buy some snacks that don't matter even if they are cold, so that A-Ming can have something to eat directly after waking up.

Ah-Ming slept until after 2 o'clock in the afternoon before finally waking up.

After doing a simple wash and eating some food that Ogata bought her for breakfast or lunch, A-Machi took out the Tusu wine that she and Ogata had bought a few days ago.

Drinking Tusu wine in the first month is also one of the Japanese New Year customs.

Tusu wine has the effects of preventing colds, regulating digestive function, and expelling wind and cold.

Therefore, drinking Tusu wine together in the first month of the lunar year has the meaning of praying for disease-free and disaster relief in the new year.

Generally speaking, the Tusu wine to drink during the New Year is self-brewed, but because Ogata and the others do not have the conditions to make their own Tusu wine, they can only buy Tusu wine on the shelves to make up for it.

Although Ogata is the kind of person who doesn't hate drinking, he is not an "alcohol lover" like Genichi who can never leave his hand every day.

Already drank a lot of wine last night.

Ogata has already felt a little physical discomfort with alcohol, and he doesn't want to drink any alcoholic liquids all day today.

But under A-Ming's strong request, Ogata finally reluctantly drank a few glasses of Tusu wine.

After Ogata put down his clean wine glass, A-Machi excitedly said to Ogata:

"Okay! Let's go to New Year's visit!"

"Are you going to visit the New Year's worship today?" Ogata looked at the sky outside the window, "If you go to Jinrong Shrine for the New Year's visit now, there should be a lot of people. It shouldn't matter if you go to the New Year's visit tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Bar."

New Year's worship is also called the first end.It is one of the most Japanese New Year customs.It refers to visiting a shrine or temple for the first time in a year to pray for safety.

There is no temple in Nishino Town, only one Jinrong Shrine, so if you want to visit the New Year, you can only go to the Jinrong Shrine unless you are too busy to go to other temples or shrines.

There is no specific deadline for New Year's visits. It doesn't have to be on January 1st, and it doesn't matter if you visit other times in January.

"We're free now anyway, aren't we?" A-Ming said, "Anyway, we have nothing to do, so why don't we go to visit New Year's shrines."

Seeing that Ah-cho seemed to want to visit the New Year's shrine very much, Ogata also followed Ah-cho's wishes, changed clothes together with Ah-cho, wore a big Shitian and Dazizai on his waist, left the hotel, and went straight to the hotel. Ben Nishei Shrine in the center of Nishinocho.

After arriving at Jinrong Shrine, the scene that appeared in front of Ogata did not meet Ogata's expectations: there were people everywhere.

The flow of people flows from inside Jinrong Shrine to outside Jinrong Shrine.

However, for Ogata, who had seen Spring Festival travel and National Day outings in his previous life, this scene can only be regarded as a small scene.

Nishei Shrine is built on a high place in the town center of Nishino Town.

If you want to enter the Jinrong Shrine, you have to step up another twenty steps of stone bricks with a little green moss.

I have to say that the green moss with moss on the [-] or so steps outside the gate of the shrine makes this Jinrong Shrine look a little more sacred and mysterious, adding a lot of force.

The flow of people moves fairly fast.

Gradually, Ogata and A-Ming finally completed the twenty-odd steps of stone brick stairs.

After stepping on the last step, a vermilion torii with a height of more than 3 meters appeared in front of Ogata.

Torii is a gate shaped like the word "open", which is used to distinguish the divine domain where gods live and the secular world where humans live.

Passing through the torii and entering the shrine means entering the realm of the gods, and you need to pay attention to your next behavior.

The torii gates enshrining different gods in different places have different styles.

The deity enshrined in Jinrong Shrine is Inari God.

All the shrines enshrining Inari God use the same style of torii gate: Daiwa torii gate.

Because all the torii gates enshrining Inari God are Tailun Torii, so Tailun Torii is also called "Inari Torii".

There are also many rules for New Year's visits.

Before and after coming to the torii gate, A-machi led Ogata to stand sideways.After tidying up the clothes on his lower body, he respectfully bowed in the direction of the shrine.

This is one of the rules of New Year's visits. Before passing through the torii and entering the shrine, you must first bow in the direction of the shrine to show respect to the gods.

Ogata doesn't believe in any gods and Buddhas.

But because A-Machi is a half-Shinto believer, she respects Shintoism very much. In order to respect A-Machi's belief, Ogata also followed A-Machi to arrange the clothes on her body, and then stood respectfully outside the torii gate, following A-Machi The town bowed in the direction of the shrine.

After paying homage to the gods, Ogata and A-machi walked through the torii gates and formally entered the shrine.

After entering the shrine, Ogata suddenly realized that this seemed to be the first time he entered the shrine since he traveled here.

There has been no opportunity to enter the shrine until now.

Entering the shrine for the first time, Ogata observed everything around him with the mentality of visiting.

After all, Jinrong Shrine is just a small shrine located in a small town, so there is nothing to see, only one main hall.

In the courtyard from the torii gate to the main hall, you can see several vendors set up by the shrine maidens of Kinei Shrine.

The street vendors mainly sell some evil items with Shinto characteristics, such as magic-breaking arrows.

Looking at the shrine maidens in white scarlet hakama costumes busying around the stalls, Ogata involuntarily tugged on the sleeve of A-Machi, and asked A-Machi in a low voice:

"Can't you really try on a miko costume?"

As soon as Ogata finished speaking, A-Machi, who believed in Shintoism, answered without thinking:

"No."
