Gamers Are Fierce - Chapter 1070

[Chapter 69 Fetters]

  ”…”

  Ogasawara was silent for a moment, then nodded very slowly, and said: “Indeed.

  In the middle of July of Showa 54, the Enke Village held the Enke Festival according to the usual customs.

  Everything was according to the plan of the Hiratsuka family. It was executed,

  but there was a discrepancy in the selection of the candidates for the karma sacrifice.

  My elder brother, Fujimura Ryosuke, took my place.”

  Li Ang nodded, “I know this,

  we investigated the Fujimura family’s house and

  found that Fujimura Ryosuke’s original surname is Matsuoka, which is your mother’s surname.

  He is your uncle’s son.”

  ”…That’s right.”

  Ogasawara took a deep breath and said, “We were about the same height and weight when we were kids, and we didn’t look like that. Very similar.

  That day, all the villagers and foreign tourists had to wear Noh noodles.

  I didn’t remember anything before. It was the first time I participated in the Fate Festival.

  Because I was naughty and playful, I exchanged kimonos with Ryosuke and wanted to see if others could find us. As a

  result, other people, including my mother, did not notice anything abnormal and watched the shrine performance as usual.

  Out of some disappointment, I quietly left the shrine in the middle of the performance, before the effect of Guiquan liquor took effect.

  Just staggered At the time when the Hiratsuka family’s hidden people entered the shrine,

  my mother, and Ryosuke, who she thought was me, were brought to the well for karma. In the

  end, the ritual failed, and Huang Quanguo’s grievances could not be quelled. , but spewed wantonly, slaughtering everyone in Yuanke Village,

  Yuanke Village itself was also involved in the inexplicable area at the junction of Changshi and Huangquan.

  It’s all my responsibility, and now, it’s time to correct. ”

  He lifted one of the twine ropes and said slowly, “I need it, and I’m doomed to die here.”

  Only when I sink into the abyss, will it be possible for the karma sacrifice to get back on track. He took a deep look at the

  two of them and said complicatedly: “I went to investigate the Yuanke Village when you were eight years old, but I fell into it and missed your growth.”

  I am a selfish, unqualified father.

  Take this key, and you can go, before it’s too late. ”

  Ogasawara took it out from the black hair on the body and took out a key with a strange shape.” This key can open the trapdoor in the backyard of Fujimura’s house, and through the trapdoor, it can be directly connected to the outside world.

  Previously, the other side of the trapdoor was sealed by the strange power lingering above Yuanke Village.

  After I complete the karma sacrifice, I should be able to re-seal Huangquan so that the other side of the trapdoor can be opened. ”

  Accompanied by Ogasawara’s words, the entire underground space began to shake again, a large amount of yellow sand and dust fell, and the whole space seemed to collapse

  in the next second. Under such circumstances, Li Ang did not panic at all. , waved his hand, and said, “No hurry.

  What I want to know is, didn’t you escape from Yuanke Village in a state of amnesia? Are these things you recalled yourself? ”

  ”Hmm. ”

  Ogasawara said, “I really lost all my childhood memories. I only remember that I was covered in dirt, walking in the mountains and forests of Gangsen County,

  and was adopted by the Ogasawara family.

  Because of some kind of hidden feeling and the memory fragments that often trouble me, I eventually became a folklore scholar when I was an adult, and came into contact with the news of Yuanke Village.

  Like you, I walked into the mountains and forests of Gangsen County, and entered the ruins of Yuanke Village,

  where I came into contact with things I used to be familiar with, and slowly recovered my previous memories. The truth of all the incidents,

  but also tightly bound by the Yuanke Village, unable to escape, became the current state, sometimes awake and sometimes confused and irrational.

  After I found out that you entered the Yuanke Village, I was afraid that I would hurt you, so I went down to the Guiquan Well and prepared to take the final step to end all this. ”

  ”Is that so. Li Ang nodded and said calmly: ”

  I want to know the role of Fujimura Shuhei in this incident.

  The vast majority of villagers and tourists have to attend the Fate Moment Celebration, so why didn’t he stay with your mother and son? ”

  …because he’s a face masker.” ”

  Ogasawara explained: “The Fujimura family has always been the Noh-making family in the village.

  We are in charge of carving Noh noodles using special wood, that is, trees that are watered with water from the Goquan Well.

  Such a mask itself will be contaminated with the abnormality of the water of Guiquan.

  When it is worn on the face of a Noh opera performer, it can match the dance and singing of the performer, further amplify the hallucinogenic ability of Guiquanjiu, and immerse everyone in it. .

  On that day, an actor’s energy face was slightly damaged, so he went to the backstage for temporary maintenance. ”

  ”On this point, I believe you,”

  Li Ang nodded and said, “But I don’t think this is the whole truth. ”

  ”Huh?” ”

  Ogasawara was stunned when he heard the words, “What did you say…”

  ”As you said just now, only two people with strong and inseparable emotional bonds can correctly trigger the karma sacrifice and complete the fight against Huang Quan. The seal of the country.”

  Li Ang said: “Why can you guarantee that after you sink into the abyss, you can complete the seal?”

  ”…Because she is still alive.”

  Ogasawara was silent for a moment, and pointed to the cliff hanging The metal box on the edge, “Due to the deviation of the ritual, my mother has been in a state of neither life nor death, without any perception of the outside world.

  In the past few years, I have wanted to end all this, but I can’t bear her and the father next to Guiquanjing.

  It has been delayed until now.

  If you use me as a sacrifice, then you can reactivate the karma sacrifice…”

  ”Wait.”

  Wang Congshan raised her hand and said, “The karma sacrifice requires two existences. People with strong, inseparable emotional bonds, right?

  This kind of cruel and evil ritual, which kills two people every four years,

  is too labor-intensive for a remote and closed village. And it’s hard to guarantee that every four years will be enough.

  That’s why the Hiratsuka family has a big fanfare to hold karma celebrations, publicize it, invite tourists, and even invite your teacher, the equally well-known folklore scholar, to the mansion.

  Those foreign tourists are also candidates for the karma festival, right?

  Because of the peculiar myths of Yuanshan, there are many people who have no interest in life and want to die every year. They go to Yuanshan and disappear from then on,

  even occasionally Missing, it won’t raise too much suspicion.”

  Seeing Ogasawara nodding and admitting, Wang Congshan continued: “Then the karma festival between Masumi Fujimura and Ryosuke Fujimura shouldn’t fail.

  According to what you said, the karma festival does not require the existence of blood relations, brothers and sisters, lovers, and even Friendships can be effective,

  Masumi Fujimura and Ryosuke Fujimura are mother and son, and Masumi Fujimura also regards Ryosuke as you.

  How could it fail?”

  ”…”

  Ogasawara’s words suddenly got stuck and stood silently in place.

  ”If I’m not mistaken, most of what you told us was correct, but on key issues, you lied.

  And this lie, not to defend yourself, but to defend another person.”

  Wang Congshan said lightly: “The real reason for the failure of the karma sacrifice lies in Fujimura Masumi, right?

  She clearly knew that it was the adopted Ryosuke who was taken away, not you

  . I didn’t feel too much pain and remorse. It’s

  even possible to speculate in a darker and narrower direction that all this came from her plan.”
