The process of climbing will not be described one by one here.

Kitagawa Temple returned to the Shrine Shrine, and there was still a faint light of fire in the main hall of the shrine.

The entire shrine complex was unexpectedly simple, with the front being blocked by the shrine hall, and only the general building outlines behind could be seen.

This time he was full of energy, so he no longer hesitated, stepped onto the wooden path and walked straight to the main entrance of the main hall of the shrine.

Perhaps it was because it rained yesterday that the entire wooden road was submerged with sewage.

Kitakawa Temple stepped on the water and came to the wooden road, and the warmth gradually peeled off from its body.

The gate of the temple was closed, and Kitagawa Temple's fingers were tightly placed on the gap and could not be opened.

It seems to be connected to this space.

Kitakawa Temple took two steps back, and a cold light flashed in his hand.

With the death breath poured in, the blade face slammed hard on the Heshi wooden door.

A strange scene happened.

About one centimeter away from the wooden door, Kitakawaji's dagger could not continue to approach, just as if an invisible wall in the air blocked Kitakawaji.

In response to this, Kitakawaji only increased the strength and instilled dead energy in his hands with expressionless face.

Kakka

Click!

A crisp sound came out, and the invisible wall seemed to be completely shattered and disappeared by the powerful blow of Kitakawaji.

call.

Kitakawaji exhaled a breath and took back Junding. When he reached out and put on the wooden door, he could easily open it.

"Let's go." Kitagawaji said pitifully to Nishikojo who was lying on his shoulder, and at the same time threw his outdoor backpack and cold clothes in place. He only brought his waist bag and squeezed the flashlight and touched the inside of the dark shrine hall.

Although there are inexplicably swaying candles in the shrine, the overall situation is still relatively dark.

Kitagawa Temple can feel the malicious gaze hidden in the darkness.

But when he called the flashlight, he found nothing.

He shook his head and focused on scanning the surrounding environment.

The interior space of the building is very large, with the dome upwards. You can see horizontal trees and miserable white lanterns swaying slightly above your head.

Yes, there seems to be someone's name on the overwhelming paper lanterns.

With the lights, Kitakawaji could barely see the words written on it.

God's Residence

God's Residence

God's Residence

The paper lanterns are written with all the names of gods!

As a shrine hall, there is only one altar inside, and there is no place for worship.

Only the paper lantern on the head was shaking slightly.

It is not difficult to guess that the shrine hall worships these tribe members from the divine family.

Kitakawaji's eyes turned

"That's it?"

Something seemed to fall under the altar.

Kitakawa Temple walked over with a flashlight.

It was an old and thick notepad, and Kitakawaji took it out.

There are a few words written on the cover.

"The Godly Marriage"

Indeed, if God wants to maintain the inheritance, it is naturally impossible to leave the engagement.

But what is strange is why notepads that record these marriages are placed here.

Kitakawaji put it on the altar and looked at it with the light:

‘The gods stay in the shrine, the wedding matter.’

‘In order to maintain the inheritance of the shrine, some husbands need to be selected to go up the mountain every fifteen years, and a wedding ceremony will be held. If it is in harmony, the inheritance of the priest will be passed on with the title of the gods, and then the jinn girl instills the shrine concept for him, so that he can concentrate on the ceremony and settle down in the gods from then on.’

‘The son-in-law and the witches of the shrine were divided into gods and their families.’

‘The son-in-law should not contact the core affairs of the shrine, and the people who are in their own family should not have any relationship with the son-in-law. You should maintain your blood purity and control the entire shrine and ritual heritage.’

"Son-in-law? Could this be what Mamiya Eternale said?" Kitagawaji remembered the story of the witch and the man that Mamiya Eternale told.

As a witch who is a god-in-law, she fell in love with a man who is a son-in-law, and there is indeed a possibility of existence.

If one of the soul-suppressing Gemini falls in love with a certain man, but the strict rules of the God's family cannot meet his beloved, the ceremony fails

Is there such a possibility?

Moreover, this title page only states the situation of "combination". What if the man's wedding ceremony is "not communicating"?

What will happen to a man?

There is no record after this.

Kitakawaji opened this book.

This book begins with the Taisho period, but there are not many things recorded on it.

After all, this mountain only takes men up the mountain once every fifteen years, so there are naturally not many things that can be recorded.

Besides, sometimes there are many males in the shrine, so naturally there is no need to select men at the foot of the mountain. So there are several records of the gaps.

But Kitakawaji didn't care about these things. He was concerned about the records from 2008 or 2009.

According to the story told by the Eternal Image of Mamiya Eternal, there may be records about witches and men there.

"I have it." Kitagawa Temple looked excited.

As Kitagawaji thought, there was indeed a selection in Heisei 21, that is, in 2009.

There are not many men going up the mountain, and there are only a dozen people looking at it briefly.

There are still half of the names on it with red lines, which can be seen that this should be the one who failed the wedding ceremony.

"In other words, are the remaining people among these?"

Kitakawaji looked at the list below, one of which caught the attention of Kitakawaji.

His name was marked with a red circle, which seemed to be a special mark.

Kitakawa Temple is turned over again.

But strangely, the records of the wedding ceremony in 2009 disappeared out of thin air.

This does not match the previous format.

The rough format of the previous one is:

The candidate who passes the wedding ceremony (excluding men who fail the wedding ceremony) will marry a witch in the shrine.

But on this page, there is nothing left except for the wedding candidates and those who pass the wedding ceremony.

Logically speaking, there should be a marriage later.

"That is, for some reason, the marriage has been temporarily delayed."

Kitagawa Temple frowned.

So what happened is more important than a major event like family inheritance?

Kitakawaji soon came up with the answer.

What is more important than family inheritance should be the ritual of attracting the soul flowers.

In 2009, the Gods' Shrine was preparing for the next Soul-Inducing Flower Blossom ceremony, but in 2010, for some reason, the Soul-Inducing Flower Blossom ceremony failed and the shrine was completely destroyed. Naturally, there were no subsequent records of the wedding ceremony.

"This inference should be correct."

Kitakawaji stood up.

The lanterns above the head swayed under the dark candlelight
