The moment he heard the name, Imagawa Yoshimoto guessed what kind of performance this would be - it was nothing more than telling ancient myths and stories, those old legends of gods in "Kojiki": the beginning of heaven and earth, the first birth in Takamagahara
The main god of Heaven is the Royal God, followed by Gao Huang Chan Ling Shen and Shen Huang Chan Ling Zun, which respectively represent the foundation of the universe and the yin and yang. The three gods are the gods of creation and have lived in seclusion in Gao Tianyuan since the day they were born.
really,
It was pretty much what Imagawa Yoshimoto had imagined. An actor playing the role of the main god of the Ten no Go Chu appeared gracefully under the music, singing and dancing, followed by the high-ranking spirit god and the god-like spirit god. However, their costumes were similar to those of Noh drama.
They were different from those old-fashioned and monotonous clothes, but exposed clothes decorated with bright and bright colors - I don't know if this was considered disrespectful to the gods.
After that, the other Tianjin Gods and the Seventh Generation of the Gods appeared one after another, but most of the actors were just supporting actors. They sang songs from the left to the right of the venue and then left. The only ones left on the court were the famous Izanagi and
Izanami brother and sister.
And the actor who plays Izanami,
It was the girl A Guo who appeared wearing a mask. After seeing A Guo, the audience cheered again.
Sure enough, the actors of Izanagi and Izanami were dancing around a stick with an exaggerated length - probably referring to the Amanuma Spear that solidifies floating objects and shapes the world.
Then, the classic line appeared——
Izanagi said to Izanami: "How is your body developing? (Let me see if your development is normal!)"
Izanami replied: "It's mature, but one part is not closed. (Brother Jie, no!)"
Izanagi then said to Izanami: "My body has also matured, but it is only exposed in many places. (I think you don't understand it at all.) Let us combine with each other and give birth to the country! (Be obedient.
,let me see!)"
"This is too blatant. Are you using such a lame excuse to court love?" Ginkgo, who had never read books such as "Kojiki", heard this explanation for the first time and immediately realized that there was a strong tendency to drive here.
Then he complained to Imagawa Yoshimoto: "This Izanagi is exactly the same pervert as Mr. Izanagi. Are you the reincarnation of Izanagi?"
"You are blasphemous, Ginkgo." Imagawa Yoshimoto rubbed Ginkgo's hair dissatisfied, and then recited a few Buddhist scriptures to unify Ginkgo.
then,
Izanami and Izanaki started walking around the stage respectively. Izanami walked from right to left, and Izanaki walked from left to right. After walking around the stage for a week, the two met in front of the stage. Izanami took the lead.
He said: "What a handsome man!"
Izanagi immediately responded: "What a beautiful woman!"
So the two gods got married.
"So easy?" Ginkgo began to complain uneasily, sincerely feeling unworthy of Izanami, "You're just taking advantage of Izanami like this? It's simply easier than Mr. pursuing me."
"It's blasphemous again." Imagawa Yoshimoto sighed secretly, and once again asked the gods for forgiveness on behalf of Ginkgo.
Next, the two actresses began to perform the process of giving birth (yes, the actor who played Izanagi was also a woman). Although it seemed a bit inconsistent, the two deformed children were also clothed with props.
It's not expressive, but the audience watched it with gusto.
"Why are all the children we gave birth to unsound? Let's go ask the gods for instructions!" Izanaki and Izanami looked at the two cloth bags in their arms, stared at each other, and sang in unison.
asked.
As a result, another actor appeared on the sidelines and began to burn the deer shoulder bones for divination in the corner of the stage. This burning took at least a quarter of an hour. During this period, there was no other performance except the soundtrack. It is reasonable to suspect that it was performed under the water.
Duration. After the burning, the actor playing the god gave the result for the two gods: "It's because the woman spoke first when the two were united.
It is unlucky for a woman to speak first.
Must do it again.”
"What the hell is this? Women are not allowed to speak first? Why is it unlucky? I don't think your divination by the god is unlucky." Gingko was shocked by the plot again and couldn't help but started to complain wildly.
.
"Three goals scored." Imagawa Yoshimoto felt that he was too busy and had been praying to the gods for forgiveness for Ginkgo.
In any case, Izanagi and Izanami walked around the stage again according to the previous path. This time Izanagi first said "What a beautiful woman", and then Izanami said
Saying "What a handsome man", the two reunited. After a complicated pas de deux, fourteen islands were born - this is the origin of the Japanese archipelago.
However, the tragedy also began. Izanaki and Izanami later gave birth to many gods such as wind, river, sea, mountain and so on. However, when giving birth to the god of fire and adding earth life, Izanami
She was burned and died in childbirth.
Takeda Harunobu's expression on the side was a little gloomy. Imagawa Yoshimoto noticed it and didn't know how to comfort him, so he lowered his head and asked Ginkgo softly: "Did that incident hit Tora Chiyo so hard?"
What Imagawa Yoshimoto is referring to is Takeda Harunobu's first marriage. Before the marriage between Takeda Harunobu and Mrs. Sanjo, which was led by the Imagawa family, Takeda Nobutora had made a marriage agreement for Takeda Harunobu in order to unite with the Ogitani Uesugi family against the Hojo family.
In a political engagement, she married the daughter of Toaki Uesugi, the head of the Uesugi family in Ogidani, in the second year of Tenmon (1533). However, this miserable woman died due to dystocia a year later, and both her mother and son died.
"Although it is a political marriage, my brother has a very good relationship with the little girl from the Uesugi family. I love her so much. The little girl also loves my brother very much and clings to him every day. As the eldest lady of the Uesugi family in Ogidani, as long as you have free time,
Come down and mend his clothes." Ginkgo sighed, glanced at his younger brother, and then said to Imagawa Yoshimoto: "That little girl is younger than my brother, and she married alone to a place like Kai with terrible conditions.
People around her were also very cruel to her. She cried quietly every night in the first few days, and my brother stayed with her to comfort her. This is the first time I have seen my brother look so gentle since I was a child."
"But it's probably because she was too young. It was too hard for the little girl to give birth, so it was difficult to give birth. At that time, my brother was waiting outside the delivery room like crazy. In the end, he only waited for two cold corpses. He saw
Without saying a word after the corpse, he personally covered the little girl with a cloth, and then locked himself up without eating or drinking for three days. In the next two years, every time he was not found in the Uzaki Hall, he would probably be there.
I went to the little girl's grave, and you can definitely find him if you go there."
"Is that so..." Imagawa Yoshimoto pursed his lips, and his eyes when looking at Takeda Harunobu became complicated - I didn't expect that Takeda Harunobu, who seemed cold-blooded and ruthless, put interests first in everything, and had no personal feelings, actually once had
Such an emotional side.
"But then one day, it seemed to be the middle of March in the fifth year of Tianwen (1536). It seemed to be the 15th or what day. I can't remember the specific day." Ginkgo recalled the past. For her who forgets things easily,
What happened 7 years ago was too long ago. "That was the last time he went to the little girl's grave. I went with him. He didn't know what he thought of. He cried loudly in front of the grave and then passed out.
In the past, I was the one who carried him back to Tsuzaki Hall."
"Since then, he seems to have changed. He will never see the little girl again, and his gentle side will never be seen again. His personality, eyes, and words are all different.
It's like he has changed into a different person. He is no longer like the brother I brought up, but looks like my bastard father - mercenary, ruthless, and ruthless. Alas..." Ginkgo said this with a regretful tone in her tone.
With a hint of distress:
"Maybe it was the death of the little girl from the Uesugi family that hurt him, and he became like this, and he has always been very cold towards my siblings. Sometimes I often think, if the little girl did not die, but gave birth to a child for him,
The family of three is enjoying themselves happily. Does this mean that my brother will not become the bastard he is now, but will become a kind and good person like my husband?"
"People are shaped by the different events they experience in life. This is also destined..." Imagawa Yoshimoto rubbed his eyebrows and sighed: "I am often afraid. If I hadn't met the teacher, I would have
What will my life be like..."
The subsequent plot still unfolds according to the myth in "Kojiki". After Izanami died, she went to the Underworld from the human world. Aguo, who played her, also changed into black and white clothes and walked to the right corner of the stage.
Izanagi was deeply saddened by the death of his wife. He missed his wife day and night, and finally decided to go to the Underworld to pick up his wife. The actor of Izanagi walked from the left side of the stage to the right side, and two stage attendants moved onto a small wooden bridge and placed it on the stage.
In the center of the stage, "Yomi-Hirazan" serves as a bridge between the yin and yang worlds. Izanagi then walked through the "Yomi-Hirazan" and came to the underworld on the right side of the stage. He invited Izanami: "The land we created together.
The mission has not been completed yet, please follow me back to the human world!"
"It's such a pity. Why didn't you come to pick me up earlier? I've already eaten the food of the underworld and can't return to the human world." Izanami also looked sad, but then she reluctantly agreed: "Please allow me
Please consult with the gods and please don’t peek during this period!”
After saying that, Aguo, the actor who plays Izanami, turned around and walked off the stage, walked around in a circle and went up to the left side of the stage. Izanaki was waiting on the right side of the stage, but it took about half a quarter of an hour (reasonable suspicion was that he was in the water again)
, Izanami still didn't move. Seeing this, Izanaki was a little anxious, and couldn't hold it back, so he walked off the stage, walked around to the left side of the stage to look for Izanami - but he saw his wife's face full of blood.
Maggots, ugly appearance - this is the girl from Aguo who took off Izanami's mask just now and put on a new ugly mask.
Izanagi was so frightened that he turned around and ran away. Izanami became angry because of her husband's dislike and rushed to chase Izanagi. Izanagi was so frightened that he fled around the stage.
Week after week, when I was running through Yomizumi-Hirazan, I finally dropped a thousand-point stone with the help of the field props team and placed it on the bridge of Yomizumi-Hirazan, blocking Izanami's path. It was officially
The two realms of Yin and Yang were blocked. From then on, there was no longer any communication between the Kingdom of Huangquan and the human world.
"Men are really rubbish." Ginkgo looked at the plot in front of her, and her resentment seemed to have turned into water vapor and steamed out of her head. "My wife died because of you in childbirth. You didn't go to see her for a long time, and you still feel disgusted when you finally went there.
Everyone is old and young. We Japanese are all descendants of this bastard male god. No wonder there are so many bastard men."
"Ginkgo, please stop saying a few words." Imagawa Yoshimoto's face was full of black lines, for fear that the gods in the sky would hear all Ginkgo's complaints today.
The following plot is also very familiar to Imagawa Yoshimoto. It is written in "Kojiki" that Izanami, who found that he could not chase the Senkishi to the human world, said angrily: "Every day I will kill a thousand people in the human world."
people!"
Not to be outdone, Izanagi shouted through the Thousand Stones: "Then I will give birth to 1,500 new babies every day!"
From this, there is birth, old age, illness and death.
However, the development of the stage play suddenly and significantly deviated from "Kojiki" and took a path that Imagawa Yoshimoto had never imagined.
Aguo, who played Izanami, suddenly knelt in front of the Qianyin Stone and cried bitterly:
"Why did it become like this? Why did it become like this? My home, my country, my lover, everything about me..."
"It would be great if I could do it all over again!"
"Let's start over and let time return to its original starting point!"
