Golden Fishery

Five hundred and sixteenth. Wave elimination shrine (1/5)

Next to this group photo is a photo of Kota Tezuka and a bluefin tuna. The fish is obviously longer and weighs 260 kilograms, but the price is much lower, only 1.25 million US dollars.

Kota Tezuka came up to take a look, and sighed: "This is the former king of fish. At that time, we thought that this was the biggest tuna now, but when we saw the king of tuna, we realized that they are nothing! "

"Why are the prices of these two fish so different?" Qin Shiou asked with a frown. He wanted to estimate the price of his fish through the fish king's quotation here, but the price gap was too large, and he didn't take the usual path. He didn't know what to do.

Butler explained to him: "There is a gap in meat quality. The meat quality of the fish in 2013 was S-grade, which is rarely seen in history, so the price is so high. This also led to the government's intervention in the price. It is believed that seafood merchants are trying to lure fishermen. They catch tuna and bid too much."

Qin Shiou nodded. His tuna has not yet been tested for meat quality, which needs to be tested at the auction site, and all interested seafood merchants will test it themselves.

Because there is actually no standard for the meat quality of tuna. Every seafood merchant has its own ideas about the quality of the fish and what grade of sashimi it is suitable for.

Under the guidance of Tezuka Kota, the three of them walked around the market, and then left through the bridge gate of the market.

This gate is the eastmost one of the gates facing the direction of the new bridge, and it is only used for the departure direction.

In addition, another reason to walk from here is that as soon as you go out here, you will see the Nami Shrine. It is also a good scenic spot, Tezuka Takata asked Qin Shiou to take a look.

Literally, the buildings around the market are both 'tsukiji' and 'nami'. Qin Shiou guessed that the surrounding area was formed by land reclamation.

Sure enough, after entering the shrine, Kota Tezuka began to explain, saying: "Actually, as early as Tokugawa Ieyasu's time, our ancestors began to reclaim land from the vicinity of Honganji Temple, but at that time the production capacity was too poor, and they were repeatedly destroyed by big waves. making it difficult to progress the project."

"Later, after someone enshrined the statue of the god of grains found in the sea as a god, the wind and waves began to calm down. In this way, the project was finally completed smoothly. This is the source of 'Naomi God', and fishermen in Kyoto used to believe that belief in Nami God can ward off disasters. and bless the safety of navigation."

The area of ​​the shrine is small, with only less than ten rooms, large and small.

Tezuka Kota led Qin Shiou to enter through the main entrance, facing a yard with cherry blossoms planted in it. Now is the season of cherry blossoms, or pink or snow-white cherry blossoms are in full bloom, decorating the yard brilliantly.

Across the courtyard is the main hall of the temple,

There is a hideous statue inside, about three or four meters high.

There are two shrines, one large and one small, in front of the statue. The big square is one meter long, wide, and high. The texture should be cast iron, and it is filled with burning incense. The small one is in the shape of a bucket, and it is almost as big as a bucket. There are some grains in it, which are probably the five grains of Japan. After all, Nami was first called the god of five grains.

Miao Zhu met Tezuka Kota. After seeing him, he proclaimed a Buddha's name, and said respectfully: "Prince Tezuka, I haven't seen you for a long time, are you okay?"

Kota Tezuka bowed to him with his palms folded, and said, "Thank you, master, for your concern, and God bless you. All are well. Today I specially brought two overseas friends to pay homage to God God, to thank God."

Qin Shiou had no interest in visiting the shrine. But worshiping Buddha in a temple is also human nature, not to mention Tezuka Kota is so enthusiastic, he can't refuse.

But as soon as he entered the main hall, he shivered all of a sudden, staring straight at the small Buddhist altar in front of the statue, and gulped down his saliva.

That sense of longing reappeared, the small Buddhist altar filled with five grains definitely contained rich Seagod energy! Seagod's heart became more and more restless, so that he couldn't suppress this feeling anymore, he just wanted to rush over to absorb the energy!

But he knew that the situation was wrong, and he had to restrain the swallowing desire, so he lowered his head and tried not to look at the small Buddhist altar.

Kota Tezuka entered the temple to offer incense, and Miaozhu prepared three thick and long golden incense sticks for him.

Walking up to the Buddha statue with a solemn expression, Kota Tezuka held the incense rod between the middle finger and index finger of both hands, put the incense stick on his chest with his thumb against the tail of the incense, and then prayed to the statue in a low voice.

After praying, he raised his eyebrows and prayed three times in a row.

Miao Zhu went up to help him catch the incense. First, he inserted one stick in the middle of the big Buddhist altar, the second stick on the right side of the big Buddhist altar, and the third stick on the left side.

Takata Tezuka heaved a sigh of relief when everything worked out like this, walked back with a smile and said to Qin Shiou: "I kept you waiting for Qin Sang, my family has been fisherman for generations, and I always respect Bo Chushen. A fragrant one."

Qin Shiou hurriedly said that you are polite, and then said: "Mr. Tezuka, although it is the first time for me to pay homage to the god of waves, but like you, I am most in awe of this kind of god who protects ordinary people, so I also want to burn incense for him. Don't know if it's possible."

His plan was to pretend to be unsteady and stumble when he was inserting incense later, so that he could take advantage of the situation to help the small altar and take the opportunity to absorb the energy inside.

Miao Zhu smiled and said: "The layman has a heart. Bo Chushen has a big heart. He accepts believers from all directions and visitors from the nine days. Naturally, he welcomes them."

The joy on Tezuka Kota's face was even heavier. There is nothing more pleasant than being respected by others for one's beliefs.

Qin Shiou imitated Tezuka Kota's posture, bowed and prayed in front of the statue, and said silently in his heart: "Hi, my brother, I'm sorry, I have to get rid of your eating guy today. I hope you don't care, I guess you guard this place." The rice bowl has been around for a long time, if you don’t go to the old one, you won’t get the new one, brother, you can get a new one for you. If you don’t agree, just say it, and if you don’t, I’ll take it as if you agree.”

I was very relieved, after he prayed, Bochu Dashen didn't make any sound, it seemed that he acquiesced to his request.

Qin Shiou bowed and wanted to insert the incense by himself, but the Miaozhu stopped him suddenly, and said with a smile: "Layman, please stay, I have already felt the wave of your mind, and I will insert the incense."

The corner of Qin Shiou's mouth twitched, and he hurriedly said, "No need, master, it's better for me to do this kind of thing myself? It's the so-called sending Buddha to the west and burning incense to the end..."

Tezuka Kota explained to him: "Qin Sang, don't be polite, this is the rule of Namitsu Shrine, you just give the incense to the master."

Now that everyone said so, Qin Shiou could only smile awkwardly, handed the incense to Miao Zhu, and looked helplessly at the small Buddhist altar that was still so far away from him.

After burning the incense, the three of them left the shrine. Qin Shiou didn't give up and asked Butler to burn one too, so that as long as he stayed at the shrine for one more minute, he would have another chance.

As a result, Comrade Butler took out a pure gold cross crucifix from his collar, and said solemnly: "No, Qin, I am a devout Christian, and I only worship my father and my Lord, hallelujah .”
