Chapter 280 Curse
"Yunjima Shrine?" Sakaguchi also joked, "Didn't the demon break through the seal and destroy the Yunjima Shrine?"
have to…
Kimura and Shu were speechless. It was obvious that the whole village knew about this. And they were all used as feudal superstitious jokes.
Seeing that Kimura Kazuki and Kamota were speechless, Otomi Sakagami thought he had said the wrong thing, so he couldn't help but stick out his tongue. He put the food on the table, wiped his apron with his hands, and said carefully, "Actually, there is another legend in Yundao Shrine. Do you want to hear it?"
"What legend?" Kimura Kazuki asked. Since Sakakuramura knew about this and used it as a joke, then perhaps Sakakuramura knew about other things. Now that Sakakuramura spoke, he couldn't help but be curious.
While eating, He Maosheng also looked over curiously. From noon to now, he has not eaten anything and is already very hungry.
"I heard that the thing that seals the demon god seems to be called the Four Souls Jade."
Hearing the Four Souls Jade, He Maosheng couldn't help but eat with the chopsticks, and then continued to eat. However, he was really a little uncomfortable with it if he didn't turn on the light to eat.
Kimura and Chu narrowed their eyes. He looked at Otomi Sakakura. Seeing the other party thinking, he thought about something. Otomi Sakakura continued to speak, "My grandfather told me about this, but my grandfather had passed away a few years ago. Grandma should know a little about this."
"There is indeed this legend of the Four Souls Jade." Grandma Sakakura pondered for a while, "In the legend, the so-called Four Souls Jade is the lucky soul, the soul, the wasteland soul and the strange soul, which represents love, relative, courage and wisdom. If the Four Souls Jade falls into the hands of a bad person, it will become an evil spirit and a resentful spirit. If it is in the hands of a good person, both the body and the spirit will be purified."
Lucky soul, harmonious soul, wasteland soul and strange soul?
When Kimura Kazuki heard these words, he thought about it for a moment and knew that this was another name for the three souls and seven spirits in ancient Japan. In other words, this was the name for the soul of the witch who turned into the four souls.
The three souls and seven spirits are the Taoist sayings in China and are deeply rooted in people's hearts. It is normal for Japan to not know about it in ancient times.
"The Four Souls Jade is a legendary thing, and we have never seen it. However, our ancestors got this thing and used the Four Souls Jade to suppress the demon god. I heard that if we got the Four Souls Jade, all ghosts and monsters would not be able to get close to them, and if they were worn for a long time, they could purify the soul and improve their physique." Grandma Sakakura said, and couldn't help but smile, "Of course, these are all legends and cannot be true."
"It's true." Omoto Sakagami laughed, "The reason why this legend has been circulated is that people in the village don't want to rebuild the shrine."
When he heard this, Kamao Sheng, Kimura and Kazuki suddenly realized.
No wonder Yundao Shrine was destroyed and not rebuilt for a year. It turned out that some people from Sakakuen Village didn’t want to pay for money, so they used this legend to warn the people from Sakakuen Village. If the shrine is rebuilt, disaster may come. In addition, many people do not want to rebuild Yundao Shrine at all, so they simply follow this legend.
It is impossible to pay for money, and you can only rely on terrifying legends to intimidate everyone to maintain the status quo. After waiting for a long time, those who want to repair Yundao Shrine probably will have no such thoughts.
After all, Yundao Shrine has not made any contribution to Sakakuen Village. Each generation has to select some people from the village to act as Onmyoji and witches, which makes many parents who expect their children to have a promising future resentment. It’s just that due to the ancestral teachings, they have never violated them.
"Is there any other legend?" Kimura Kazuki smiled, and when he saw Grandma Sakakuen and Otomi, he smiled, "I'm very interested in such stories."
Ogami Sakakura racked his brains to meditate, and finally said disappointedly, "No more. I only know that the Four Souls Jade is used to suppress the demon god. Yundao Shrine is in charge of the Four Souls Jade. However, many people in the village have visited Yundao Shrine before, but they have not found any Four Souls Jade. I guess this story was fabricated by someone."
No wonder there are signs of turning inside the Yundao Shrine.
"It must be a lie." Grandma Sakakuen gave her granddaughter a blank look, "How could there be a four-soul Jade in this world?"
Otomi Sakakura stuck out her tongue, she looked at Kimura and Chu and said, "Kimura, I'll make a bag for you, and you can give the food to Chunyang and the others."
"It's time to do it." Kimura Kazuki smiled slightly, "We will pay."
"What money do you want?" Grandma Sakakura waved her hand, "If I want to give money, I will drive people away."
"this…"
"Yes, it's just some ordinary dishes. If you give it money, you will look down on us." Otomi Sakakura also pretended to be angry.
Finally, Kimura Kazuki and Kamo Seung wanted to pay but failed. After saying goodbye to Grandma Sakakuen and Otomi, they rushed towards Yundao Shrine.
When Otomi Sakakura could not see the two of them, she turned to look at grandma, "Grandma, do you think they can find the Four Souls Jade?"
"I don't know..." Grandma Sakakura pondered, "but these two people came to investigate Yundao Shrine, and they must not be ordinary people. We have all revealed this. Will these people stop if they don't find the Four Souls Jade?"
"We should reveal more information. I remember that the Four Souls Jade is in the pool in the tunnel... If they don't investigate the pool, wouldn't they get nothing?"
Grandma Sakakura was speechless, "Do you think they are scattered? If we say something more, we might be suspected. After all, in their opinion, we are just ordinary people. The boy just now didn't seem to believe us much."
"Does ordinary people have night activities?" Sakaguchi Otomi muttered, "We are night activities again, and we have to suck blood again to make a living. Isn't this exactly the same as the vampires in novels and movies?"
"I hope we are vampires and can live longer." Grandma Sakakura said in a sigh, "Your grandpa is dead, I guess I haven't had a few years."
Speaking of this, Grandma Sakakura continued to speak, "Onomi, you continue to go to the village chief's house and ask if the village chief is ready."
"Okay." Sakaguchi Otomi responded. She was just about to go to the village chief's house, but she met Kimura and Shu on the way, so she took them home.
Grandma Sakakura looked at Otomi Sakakura who was going out with relief, but did not notice a red light flashing deep in the eyes of Otomi Sakakura's eyes.
After Otomi Sakakura left, Grandma Sakakura looked at the starry sky outside the door, silenced, and felt silent in her heart.
Although the starry sky is beautiful, the light is what ordinary people like. It is time to untie the curse of Sakakuen Village. Otherwise, Sakakuen Village will sooner or later be found strange, and then it will be the time to destroy the village.
I hope those two people can take away the Four Souls Jade.
