I, Hikigu, are contained by the evil god

It wasn't until he saw Masuzu that he realized,

I also want to pick up that past friendship again...I always wanted to.

So, with a little smile in his eyes, Biqigu and Zhenliang looked at each other,

The corners of the mouth curled up,

"Okay."

He says,

"That's exactly what I'm asking for."

……

Chapter 9 Yukino under the fireworks, smiling like a flower (6k)

The encounter between Xia Chuan Zhenliang and Biqigu was a small episode tonight. For Biqigu, it added a lot of joy and bright brilliance to his trip today.

When Zhenliang's back gradually faded away in sight, Bi Qigu and the others looked away.

...In fact, Bi Qigu knew very well that this fellow Zhenliang came here to watch a large-scale parade.

After all, it is the Gion Festival. As one of the three major festivals in Japan, local Kyoto residents will not get tired of participating every year, and it has even become a habit.

But now that the large-scale parade was still underway, and the excitement of the night was only a prelude, she left on her own... In the end, it wasn't because she saw him.

Because I don't want to disturb the nature of Hikigu's group, I know that if I am in the same company, it will make Hikigu's companions feel awkward; if I am not in the same industry, I will always meet by chance.

So Zhenliang chooses to go home.

She is always so considerate, obviously she is self-willed and awkward, she is a complete troublemaker, but she likes to sacrifice herself silently when she meets important people...

In the end, after three years, that fellow Masuzu still hasn't changed at all, it's exactly the same as before.

Sighing, Hikigu felt both touched and guilty.

"Bikigu?"

Xue Nai's voice brought his thoughts back to reality, and Hikigu turned his head to see Xue Nao's concerned eyes.

"Let's go?"

On the other hand, Kasumigaoka also said the same.

"it is good."

Hikigu nodded, suppressing the complicated emotions in his heart, and showing a gentle smile.

Turning around, Hikigu pointed to the surging crowd of people, "Let's go!"

As soon as the voice fell, Shana couldn't wait to take her steps forward. Shana, who was walking in front, had eyes full of anticipation, and rushed towards Yasaka Shrine with Hikigu and others.

Before leaving, Xue Nai turned her head and looked behind her,

Zhenliang's back has disappeared into the sea of ​​people, but her eyes are still looking at the direction where Zhenliang disappeared.

She seems to be able to see some familiar things on Masuzu's body... I don't know if it's an illusion, but she always feels that she and Masuzu seem to be the same kind of people who have gone in different directions.

Although their personalities are quite different no matter how they look at them, they somehow resonate strangely.

And Zhenliang's chic back when he left left a deep impression on her.

——This move is both a sacrifice and an aboveboard one. It is necessary to show the attitude of chariots and horses fighting for each other.

Most importantly, through this move, she unexpectedly won Xue Nao's favor.

This good impression will not make Xue Nao treat Zhenliang well, and it is completely impossible for her to complete it without even thinking about it.

However, from now on, Yukino admits Xia Chuan Masuzu as his opponent.

——She will regard Xia Chuan Zhenliang as her opponent, and then go all out to defeat her, and convince her of her defeat!

This is Yukino's royal way!

……

Before reaching the torii, the large floats came out

——Hikigu couldn't tell what it was called, but saw a group of people wearing special clothing similar to monks approaching in the crowd, and there were people playing flutes or small drums on both sides , or hitting a small gong to make a crisp sound like a bell, and there are many people carrying a car-like thing in the middle.

...It's a car, but Bi Qigu thinks it's more like a small cart style of Oden

There is a top cover on the top of the car, and there are two oil-paper umbrellas on top of the top cover. There are many small round white lanterns with characters hanging on the bottom of the top cover, which is really beautiful.

Although Hikigu didn't know what the name of this car was, he thought it was quite gorgeous.

If Xia Zhiqiu knew, he would probably roll his eyes and laugh and curse, "How do you know how to eat?"

Behind this little car, there are many floats of completely different styles, which are moving forward in an orderly manner accompanied by the playing of various musical instruments.

Passers-by on the street raised their mobile phones high, and the flash light kept clicking.

"That must be a float!"

Kasumigaoka's explanation came very timely. When Hikigu looked over, he found Kasumigaoka's eyes flickering, which was amazingly bright.

"Floats are actually something similar to sedan chairs. They are divided into two types: floats and spears. Every year during the Gion Festival, each of Kyoto's 29 districts will design a gorgeously decorated float to participate in the parade."

"Both the floats and the spear cars are elaborately decorated with intricate artifacts such as fabrics, dyed cloth and statues. Because of their splendor, these floats are sometimes referred to as 'moving art galleries.'"

"It sounds shocking." Hikigu tilted his head and looked at the convoy in front of him, "But it seems that there are not so many floats here."

"Well... because you missed the best time." Xia Zhiqiu rolled his eyes, raised his chin, nunuzui gestured to the team in front of him,

"Actually, the really grand parade is indeed today, but it is in the morning..."

"The information I found told me that there will be two parades throughout the festival, and the floats will parade in the center of Kyoto from 9 am to 11:30 am."

"Of the two biggest parades, the first is today, July 7, when 17 floats will participate together, and the scene is truly spectacular."

There is a little longing in Xia Zhiqiu's eyes,

"At that time, you could even see a spear cart! A spear cart with a height of 25 meters and a weight of 12 tons~"

Shana scratched her head and couldn't help but take over the topic:

"Wow? How come it's so big!"

"...It's incredible, isn't it?"

Kasumigaoka pursed her lips and nodded:

"That's it. It's really powerful, but if it's not powerful, it can't be one of Japan's three major festivals, can it?"

"Not only that, but according to the tradition, every year in Kyoto, a local youth is selected as the messenger of the gods."

"From July 7 until the end of the first parade on July 13, he will sit on one of these delicate floats with his feet never touching the ground."

"That exquisite float is the most interesting float."

Hikigu blinked: "Then what we are looking at now is..."

Kasumi Hill spread out his hands and nodded to confirm:

"It's aftertaste."

"I understand." Hikigu sighed,

"It's scraps."

Xia Zhiqiu waved his hand, "It's not that... Although it's not as gorgeous as it was during the day, it still has a lot of bright spots."

"The evening program is also indispensable. In addition to the gorgeous and luxurious Yamaboko parade during the day, the Shinko Festival of the three mikoshi gathered in front of the west building gate around the evening of the 17th is also one of the highlights of the festival."

"Besides, besides the Gion Festival, tonight's Yasaka Shrine is the busiest and busiest, and it's also the most worthwhile time to come!"

Xia Zhiqiu gave a thumbs up, "Anyway, we chose this place tonight, we came to the right place!"

...Although, if you can listen to me, it would be even better if Hikiya and I went to Kibune Shrine (Marriage Shrine).

"Also, if you really want to watch it, you can watch it."

Xia Zhiqiu sold a pass.

Bi Qigu's eyes lit up, and he turned his head suddenly: "How do you say?"

"After the large-scale parade of the floats during the day, they will stop on the side of the road for viewing, and they will be sent away after a few days."

Bi Qigu raised his eyebrows, "That is to say..."

"If you don't mind the trouble, and you really have the passion, you can be a boy chasing floats."

The corner of Kasumigaoka's mouth curled up, turned his head, and hooked his fingers towards Hiki Valley, full of provocation, "There are floats everywhere on the street, if you go wherever there are floats, you can still see those floats... …although no one."

"Crack!" Hikigu snapped his fingers and raised his head, "Go, why don't you go?"

"Are you going?" Hikigu turned to look at Yukino and the others again.

To this, everyone's answer is:

"It's all coming."

——It’s all here, this sentence is too magical.

Wouldn't it be a pity if I couldn't enjoy myself after I finally came to Kyoto?Wouldn't it be better not to come?

That being the case, don't be afraid of trouble.

Wherever you want to go, leave when the thought arises.Don't care even if it's going around, even if it seems time-consuming and energy-consuming...that's youthful romance.

Even the rotten Biqigu in the old city has a young heart under the chest.

But go to the street to be a "child chasing floats" or wait until later, anyway, those floats are motionless on the street, they can't run... Hikigu and the others went to Yasaka Shrine first.

……

On the way, after passing many white lanterns offered by believers, passing through the streets in the forest, and squeezing through the turbulent crowd, Hikigu and his party finally stepped through the torii gate.

Torii is an accessory building of a Japanese shrine similar to a torii, which represents the entrance to the realm of the gods, and is used to distinguish the realm of the gods where the gods live and the secular world where humans live.

"Entering the torii gate means entering the realm of the gods!"

Kaguya's little face is very serious, and her little face is flushed by the orange light, "Afterwards, you should pay special attention to all behaviors and behaviors."

"Actually, I wanted to ask just now, Kaguya, do you know a lot about Shinto culture?"

Kaguya nodded, "Yeah, it's because of my interest. I've been interested in this kind of knowledge since I was a child."

"But then again."

Kaguya turned his head and asked Hikigu strangely,

"Not to mention how deep the understanding is, but a preliminary understanding of Shinto culture, shouldn't it be the basic quality of an agent?"

Hikigu: "..."

How can there be a strong sense of sight when Kasumigaoka points to his nose and says, "This is common sense, Mr. Hikigaya"?

How can Xiu, Kaguya and Kasumi Hills come together to bully me, my immediate boss!

——Speaking of, "This is the basic quality of an agent", it seems that I have heard Kaguya say this many times, and I haven't made up my mind before. Is this Kaguya's catchphrase or something?

……

Strange to say, after stepping through the torii gate, it seems that I really walked into the realm of the kingdom of God as Kaguya said, Hikigu felt that it was so quiet inside,

It's like a torii isolating the bustling and quiet, the bustling outside and the quiet and peaceful inside are in stark contrast.

"It's amazing," Shana said.

"There are so many couples." Hui Ye couldn't help but sigh with emotion when she found that many girls in kimonos were walking intimately with the boy.

"It's just a couple."

Hikigu shook his head and comforted everyone,

"Our comrade-in-arms is much stronger than love."

"It's better to be free and easy."

Behind Hikigu, Yukino and Xia Zhiqiu rolled their eyes together.

……

After that, they entered Yasaka Shrine from the main entrance of Yasaka Shrine, which is the Nanlou Gate.
