I Created the Myth of the Old Ruler

Seven days passed quickly.

After the palace examination, the rest of the selection process is just a formality.

During this period of time, rumors about the new Son of God were spreading, both in Wajima Grand Shrine and in Wajima City.

On the second day of the palace examination, the Sanada family sent people to look for Lu Kan, hoping to make good friends with him. They also brought Sanada Makoto with them to perform a painful drama of Zhou Yu beating Huang Gai in front of Lu Kan.

It has to be said that in a family that has been in power for a long time, although there may be one or two people in the family who do not understand things, they can generally distinguish the pros and cons. As soon as they see that their miko may not be able to become the successor, they immediately Take advantage of the wind and come to get married.

It doesn't matter if Lu stumbles.

He is a person who will leave this world and disappear from people's eyes in a few days. It is useless to fawn over him.

In addition to the Sanada family, there were naturally other people coming to visit. Lu Tanzania's courtyard was originally quite quiet, but as a result, there were so many people coming and going that it made it difficult for him to even take a nap.

Feeling that it was troublesome, Lu Tanzania simply asked the cold-hearted miko to change his residence. Then he went to Hedao to wander around during the day, collecting intelligence, and obtained a lot of first-hand information about this world.

The government of Wajima is relatively loose, with some daimyo as the main power holders. They check and balance each other. Many years ago, there were several wars between daimyo, but each time it ended in a hurry with the massive invasion of filth. Now that the overall power of the island is weakening, the island leader of each island has become the actual controller of that island.

For example, Sakurajima, where Kohaku's family is located, has actually formed a relatively closed political structure because it is far away from Wajima.

Most of the ships on the island are used to guard against pirates. In the far sea, some pirates have formed a regime-like structure to confront the central government of the island.

In Hedao, the gap between the rich and the poor is not as obvious as the difference between the abandoned capital. The poor just fish and dry nets to ensure food and clothing, and dress simply. The rich wear luxurious clothes, but everyone can walk on the same street, or in other words Generally speaking, Hedao's productivity level is not that developed and it has not yet entered industrialization, so the accumulation of primitive capital is not that rampant.

As for Veranda Flower Street.

Lu Tiao went to check with Xia Dao with an investigative attitude. I don't know if it was because of the priest's presence. The girls were very calm, sitting upright, answering Lu Tiao's questions honestly, and even typing question marks from time to time.

In the end, Lu Tian expressed concerns about the safety and health issues of Flower Street and put forward suggestions for improvement. He had a cordial conversation and meeting with the people in charge of the Flower Street Parade and exchanged opinions. The visit ended successfully.

As for Laika, because the next thing was already very simple, he asked Laika to go back and stay in advance, so that he would not suddenly appear in some strange place and transform into a living person, scaring the flowers and plants.

"The fire passing ceremony is the most important ceremony of the shrine. During the ceremony, the new divine son will inherit the pure fire of the ancestors, complete the inheritance, and then enter the divine son pavilion to ignite her first flame."

The cold miko lady explained as she put Lu Tanzania into formal attire for the ceremony.

"With the completion of the fire-passing ceremony, the replacement of the Son of God has been officially completed. At the same time, the Wajima Grand Society has promulgated the era name of the new shrine maiden. By the way, let me tell you that the current era name is Kazami."

She told Lu Tan seriously and without incident.

"What year is Fenghe now?"

Lu Tan couldn't help but ask.

"Thirty-seven years of Fenghe."

The miko lady replied immediately.

"Does it take so long for a priestess to be a priest?"

Lu Tan was a little sad.

It's no wonder that those big names want to compete for the position of the officiating miko, because once successful, it means more than thirty years of power, and anyone will be tempted.

"Thirty-seven years is already a very short time. Because the last Lord Son of God only stayed for a short time, the selection process was hasty and failed to wait until a shrine maiden with sufficient spirituality appeared. Historically, the reign of the Son of God has only lasted from thirty-seven years. It ranges from 150 years to 150 years, and the longest is 168 years."

The miko lady said again.

"After the ancestors of the Son of God abdicated, they would go to the Pure Fire Palace to retire. They had been exposed to the Pure Fire for a long time, and even their breath was unbearable for ordinary people. Even in normal times, we cannot see the Son of God."

"So, how many gods are there in the Jinghuo Palace now?"

Lu Tan was curious.

"I don't know. Only the most respected witches can enter the Jinghuo Palace. Things related to the Son of God are taboo for ordinary witches like us."

The miko lady shook her head.

"All right."

Lu Tan didn't ask further. Obviously, that's all she knew.

When he thought that Kohaku might have to be the Son of God for decades, lonely and separated from everyone, guarding the world, he felt a deep loneliness.

It's like being at the end of the world.

After changing his clothes, Lu Tan looked at himself in the bronze mirror.

He was already very handsome, but when paired with formal clothes, he became even more calm and restrained.

"...It's okay."

The cold little miko came out of her trance.

At this time, Lu Kan saw over her shoulder that at the door, a girl wearing white clothes, scarlet hakama, pine and crane patterns, a golden crown and a hairpin was standing there.

"Lord Son of God."

The cold miko lady noticed the person behind her, she immediately took a few steps back and saluted Kohaku.

"Back off first."

Amber waved her hand and signaled the other party to retreat, leaving only Lu Tan and her in the room.

"How about it?"

Amber raised her sleeves and turned her body slightly.

"It's not suitable. Otherwise, take it off."

Lu Tan joked half-seriously.

"No, I've already made my decision."

Amber heard what Lu Tan meant and just pursed her lips and smiled.

She reached out and took out something from her arms, placing it in Lu Tan's palm.

"This is the guardian I asked for for you. I hope you can be safe."

The guardian was very ordinary, just like the other guardians at Wajima Taisha Shrine, but it was the guardian of the priestess, and it might have some lucky effects.

【Lucky Guardian】

[A guardian who has been blessed by a shrine maiden of Wajima Taisha Shrine]

[People are accustomed to praying to gods for blessings, and witches convey the gods’ will on their behalf]

[As for how to interpret it, it varies from person to person]

At the same time, Lu Jian's vision flashed with system text like this.

Seeing this, Lu Jian realized that this was a world in danger.

Evil may invade the island at any time, while the pure fire that never goes out slowly devours everything.

"Please protect this world."

Lu Tan put his hand on the hand that Amber gave to his guard.

"Yeah, I will."

Amber nodded and then said.

"You know, if you become the Son of God, you will have the power to truly see the world. No matter where you are in the future, I can see you."

"That would be great."

Lu Tiao smiled.

Outside the door, several shrine maidens were urging Kohaku, as if she had violated the rules and sneaked in to see Lu Tian.

"It's time for me to go to the ceremony."

Amber lowered her eyelashes.

"I'm leaving."

"Bon Voyage."

Lu Tiao waved his hand.

Amber came to the door, she raised her head slightly and looked at the clear sky.

"The moonlight should be beautiful tonight."

"yes."

Lu Tiao responded.

Outside the door, the slowly falling cherry blossoms formed a pale pink road, and Amber, dressed in gorgeous clothes, slowly left.

Lu Kanda remained motionless until the other party disappeared at the end of the crimson torii gate.
