With his face as deep as water, Nakiri Senzaemon nodded, put on his clogs and walked through the torii gate, which was usually bustling with guests and pedestrians.
Unlike ordinary people, when they cross the red barrier, they just embark on the road to the shrine.
For a big shot like Nakiri Senzaemon, it is like entering another existence, a territory that belongs entirely to him.
Even the king of gourmet food has to face some restrictions here.
It's just that human nature is more terrifying now. Even the restrictions are nothing more than casual. They have more purposes to show the master's status. If they really want to fight, the effect is not that obvious.
Therefore, Nakiri Senzaemon can safely enter this shrine. Now in modern society, it is second only to the residence of the three gods.
Inari Shrine!
...
Different from ordinary gods, they are either born from concepts, or born from the natural combination of the bloodline of the Great God and heaven and earth.
Inari God should be regarded as an example of the disaster god turning into a good person.
He was cultivated by a fox, and eventually became a god in charge of food, marriage and other related human affairs.
Although it was not powerful in the past era, in this era of vigorous development of humanity and delicious food, such conceptual matters have made Inari God an outlier among the gods of Takamagahara.
Possessing power that is almost comparable to the strongest among the Tianjin Gods.
It can be said that Inari God has now become a thorn in the eyes of many gods in Takamagahara. After all, there are many incense beliefs.
In terms of the spread of various beliefs, many gods cannot match the concept of affairs governed by this Inari god.
Of course, this god also understood this very well. Not long after leaving the seal, he immediately switched to the human camp and is now among the first batch of gods confirmed to be recognized by the country.
Became a true human-god system.
It also allowed Inari God to have a closer relationship with the top management of Toying.
This time Nakiri Senzaemon came here because of his granddaughter's affairs, to see if he could have more opportunities.
After all, Zhao Fuyu's plan is certainly sound, but with the help of an additional god, or an extremely powerful human-god god, the success rate will surely be improved a lot.
Not long after Nakiri Senzaemon sat down, Inari God in golden clothes also quickly appeared, and the two parties greeted each other.
The Food Demon King directly stated his purpose.
"I didn't expect that the eldest lady of the Nakiri clan would experience something like this."
Inari God looks like a girl, but has fox ears and a tail. His gentle and restrained divine power makes him seem to be not good at fighting, but once he underestimates such a being, the only one who suffers will be those who underestimate him. guy.
At least Nakiri Senzaemon could feel the terrifying power contained in Inari's body up close.
Once that breaks out, even he may not be able to withstand the threat.
"Well..."
"According to the design mentioned by Senzaemon-kun, there is indeed about a 60% chance that it can solve that trouble."
"Plus that guy Seimei's Taishanfu Jun Festival..."
"This arrangement is perfect, even I can't think of a better way."
The God of Inari spoke in surprise. Because of this arrangement, he seemed particularly sophisticated and calm, but also had some whimsical radicalness.
It's almost a perfect match.
It's even more reassuring than that guy Abe Seimei doing it himself.
"But in this case, I can't join in."
"Being able to have Inari Shrine provide everything you need is the limit..."
Just about taking action directly, Inari shook his head, and his fluffy ears swung in the air, drawing arcs.
"I can't get involved in this matter..."
"According to Senzaemon-kun, this is a disaster that your grandson must go through."
"It doesn't matter if you have a deep relationship with her, especially people. Our gods control great power, but we can't involve too many causes and effects in the mortal world."
"Otherwise, you will suffer the five calamities of decline."
"At that time, the Clay Bodhisattva will cross the river and he will not be able to protect himself!"
I thought that although this matter could not be easily solved, it was just an exchange of interests. I didn't expect that it was actually related to the final calamity of the five gods. Nakiri Senzaemon suddenly showed a look of surprise.
"If I intervene, it will definitely cause my own body to suffer five kinds of disaster."
"But since that genius is confident, he should have other methods."
Inari naturally knew what Senzaemon was worried about, although he didn't know what method Zhao Fuyu could use to help the participating gods avoid the disaster of five declines. He just followed the calculated method.
This thing is indeed very likely to succeed.
On the other hand, Nakiri Senzaemon's expression was uncertain. Zhao Fuyu had already helped a lot. If it could alleviate his pressure a little, naturally he wouldn't mind paying more.
"Isn't there any way to reduce the calamity of the five declines?"
"If necessary, the Nakiri family can also find anything you need..."
But Inari God just shook his head helplessly.
"Unlike other calamities, the five calamities of decline arise from the entanglement of cause and effect, which is internal rather than external, and cannot be solved by anything."
"Under the influence of heavenly beings, there is almost no solution!"
"My clothes are filthy, my hair is wilted, my armpits are sweaty, my body is filthy, and I am not happy here."
"How much of this can outside forces interfere with?"
After listening to Inari God's words, Nakiri Senzaemon was speechless for a moment. Even the King of Food was a little helpless about many things.
If his cooking skills can be further improved to the point where he can offer tribute to the immortals of heaven and earth, it is not impossible to solve the problem for Inari God.
However, he did not have the recipes for immortal dishes that were offered to heaven and earth, nor did his cooking skills reach the level where he could sublimate ordinary mystical dishes to the level of heavenly tribute.
For a moment, he was unable to refute Inari God's words.
It was at this moment that Nakiri Senzaemon truly realized his limitations, and the heart that had not been shaken for many years actually started to tremble.
That throb of dissatisfaction with the status quo!
"It seems that I am disturbing you."
Inari God is willing to say so much, and his words are sincere, this favor Nakiri Senzaemon must also suffer.
But for this Inari god, it's just a trivial matter.
It actually made him a little more curious about Zhao Fuyu.
He hesitated and spoke to the Food Demon King.
"I wonder if you can invite Chef Zhao Fuyu to come to Inari Shrine for a while after this matter is resolved. I am a little curious about some things."
"I would like to ask Chef Buyeo to answer a question..."
It was just a word, and Nakiri Senzaemon did not refuse.
However, he was a little curious. There was something that the Inari God wanted to know.
But this concerns everyone's privacy, and it's hard to ask.
But seeing the food demon king leaving, Inari God, who had always been gentle, couldn't help but frown.
"It seems..."
"The Nakiri clan has another gourmet king!"
The words came from the shrine, and a figure appeared silently, waving a folding fan, looking luxurious and timeless.
It's... Mr. Seimei, Abe Seimei!
