After reading this passage, Liu Xing was sure that the person who wrote this letter was most likely making his own decisions. In other words, he could not represent the entire Kamakura family, because although his letter was written eloquently,
It contains many words, but the main content is only one - reconciliation.
Of course, the more important thing is that the person who wrote the letter is still unwilling to give up the group that annexed the Sakai Masa family, so Liu Xing believes that the person who wrote the letter is either Sakai Umeko, or someone from the Kamakura family behind Sakai Umeko, and they are very
It's possible that this matter hasn't been reported yet.
"Are you making your own decisions? It's kind of interesting."
Liu Xing thought for a while, then took the letter to find Sakai Masachi.
Masachi Sakai is also a smart man, so after reading this letter, he came to the same conclusion as Liu Xing, and believed that this letter was not written by Sakai Umeko.
"Although I don't care much about the group's affairs, I still saw Sakai Umeko's handwriting, so this letter should be written by the person behind Sakai Umeko, and the handwriting should be that of a man."
Sakai Masachi returned the letter to Liu Xing and said seriously: "Mr. Ryusei, what are you going to do now?"
"Make the matter a big deal." Liu Xing said without hesitation: "Judging from the content of this letter, the other party obviously does not want to make this matter a big deal and wants to reach a settlement with us from the beginning.
So how can we make them get what they want? But the reason why they did this also shows that what they did was probably not reported to the Kamakura family, so as long as we make the matter bigger, maybe Kamakura
The Cang family will help us solve this matter themselves."
"That's unlikely. After all, Sakai Umeko and the others are all members of the Kamakura family, so the Kamakura family should choose to keep Sakai Umeko and the others for the sake of face. After all, for these big families, face is not very important.
It goes without saying." Masachi Sakai said seriously: "Even our Sakai Masaru family would rather suffer a lot of financial losses than have problems with our reputation. After all, if the money is gone, we can make it again.
But once a reputation falls, it’s hard to regain it.”
"You are right, but the Kamakura family will either lose their reputation or lose their manpower this time. I think the Kamakura family will not be so stubborn when it comes to their own lives, right? Unless those people are all possible
Dispensable existence.”
As soon as Liu Xing finished speaking, Master Zixuan came over and said, "I have a piece of information about the Kamakura family. Are you interested in hearing it?"
"Hmm? Then why didn't you say anything yesterday?"
Faced with Liu Xing's rhetorical question, Shi Zixuan shook his head and said with a smile: "Because this is paid content, how could I say it casually?"
"Then how much do I have to give you before you are willing to tell me?" Liu Xing said helplessly.
"Free, because I haven't confirmed the authenticity of this news. After all, the Kamakura family is also a relatively mysterious family, because they fell into autistic state after the collapse of the Kamakura shogunate, although some news is usually leaked.
came out, but what about the content of these messages? It can be described as non-nutritious, so the outside world only knows that the Kamakura family is still there, and its strength is not bad, but if you want to have a deeper understanding of the specific situation of the Kamakura family, then
It can be said that it is even more difficult. For example, I don’t think even Shimazu Nakano knows the name of the head of the Kamakura family this year.”
After hearing what Shi Zixuan said, Liu Xing realized that he really didn't know who the head of the Kamakura family was.
"That's how the Kamakura family is. Except for some people who stand up to do things, other members of the Kamakura family are hidden in the dark, so we don't know how many people there are in the Kamakura family, and who is in the Kamakura family.
faction, so some people suspect that the Kamakura family is pretending to be gods and devils, setting up an empty city to scare potential opponents. After all, the Kamakura shogunate has offended many families; of course, some people suspect that the Kamakura family is hiding clumsiness, and may secretly be stronger than
They appear to be much stronger, but the possibility of the latter is not high, because the starting point of the Kamakura family is there."
Speaking of this, Shi Zixuan seemed a little hesitant, "The next news I heard a long time ago, but I was helping an old client deal with some minor problems, and it turned out that the owner of these problems happened to be connected with the Kamakura family.
, and he seems to be the spokesperson for the Kamakura family to support, so I found something from him that may be related to the Kamakura family - Nomian, a Nomian with the word Kamakura written on it in the beta, although I
I don’t know if the Kamakura here refers to the Kamakura family or the Kamakura shogunate.”
"What's so special about Noh noodles? Although it can't be said that they are everywhere, getting Noh noodles is very simple in every sense of the word, and if you don't pay too much attention to it, making this Noh noodles shouldn't be too easy."
Tanaka Qingya on the side said: "I have made several Noh noodles before, and I also participated in Noh dramas, but because the Noh noodles looked too ugly and permeable, I gave up this hobby."
"Then have you ever seen Nōmian alive?"
Shi Zixuan said with a smile: "Although the Nengmian I found looks nothing special, it is just an ordinary wooden mask, but when someone puts on this Nengmask, the Nengmian will come to life directly, just like some
Like the facehuggers in science fiction movies, it directly snatches away the face of the masked person, and the originally normal Nohmen will also look like that person... So when I found the Nohmen, I found that it already had
There are dozens of faces, and as for those whose faces were taken away, of course they will never die again."
Hearing what Shi Zixuan said, Tanaka Qingya and other NPCs were speechless, while Liu Xing was thinking divergently and thought of the stone ghost noodles in South America next door. However, this nengmian is not as good as the stone ghost noodles in all aspects, but
It can also be regarded as a good functional prop because it can be used to change faces.
"After I saw the function of this nengmian, I wanted to take it away, because good things like this are quite valuable, and I don't have to worry about sales. As a result, just when I was about to do it, this nengmian
But he noticed my little move and started to warn its owner, so I could only cut it in half with one knife."
At this point, Shi Zixuan's expression began to look a little regretful, "I went back and checked the origin of this noodle, and then I discovered that this noodle is actually made of a very rare wood - Ibaraki.
"
"Ibaraki? What does this have to do with Ibaraki Doji?" Sakai Masachi asked.
Shi Zixuan nodded and said with a smile: "Of course they are related, and the relationship is very close. To put it simply, Ibaraki is part of the great monster Ibaraki Doji. Under the right conditions, he can even become another person."
An Ibaraki-dōji, but the most important condition here is that the original Ibaraki-dōji body disappears after death, so Ibaraki can be understood as the backup body of Ibaraki-dōji; but there are not many Ibarakis, because most of them appear on the first
It was already destined in one second that he would not be able to become an Ibaraki-dōji, because Ibaraki-dōji gave them souls when he made them."
"Soul? Where did the soul come from?"
Although Liu Xing felt that he was asking questions knowingly, it was still necessary to ask.
"Of course it goes without saying that Ibaraki-douji stole the souls from various creatures. After all, Ibaraki-douji is a great monster alongside Shuten-douji, and Ibaraki-douji is currently on Hyakki Island..."
Looking at Master Zixuan who was hesitant to speak, Liu Xing frowned and said: "I was attacked by Hyakki Island when I was in Tokyo, and I remember that there is a secret church who also likes to wear Noh masks, so there is a relationship between them.
Does it matter?"
"Yes, as far as I know, Hyakki Island is actually an alliance formed by many secret churches. Simply put, it is the mythical creatures on Hyakki Island. They are actually the existences believed in by each secret church. However, these mythical creatures
They were exiled to Hyakki Island for various reasons, so the secret churches that believe in them usually don't know each other's existence. Everyone has to fight when they should, but after receiving the order, these secret churches can still form a group in a short time.
Alliance, so Hyakki Island’s strength is not weak.”
"But the biggest problem with Hyakki Island is that there are too many mythical creatures, and the dogma they believe in is that the weak eat the strong, so the conflict on Hyakki Island has never ended. But a very interesting point is that the monsters on Hyakki Island
The number has not declined significantly, which means that new monsters are constantly appearing on Hyakki Island, but if we think about it carefully, we can realize that something is wrong, because the monsters on the island are obviously polarized, that is,
The weak are in groups, but the strong are unique.”
"This means that the more powerful monsters in the island country are all single individuals. Of course, there are also strong and large groups like Kamamaitachi, but such monsters are quite rare, so the ones on Hyakki Island
Youkai are basically big monsters with their own unique names like Ibaraki Doji and Shuten Doji; and the reason why such a situation occurs in the island country is because there were many ancient gods in the island country in ancient times, and these ancient gods
It is inevitable that you will fall behind when performing daily activities.”
"So when some ordinary mythical creatures and even small animals come into contact with the items left by the ancient gods, they will turn into powerful monsters due to the energy in them. This can be regarded as an island country compared to
In other areas of the world, the variety and density of mythical creatures are relatively large. However, there are also countless items left behind by the ancient gods, so there are still many big monsters appearing today. This is obviously unreasonable.
..Now, you should know what I want to say, right?"
"Kamakura family?"
Liu Xing and others said in unison.
"That's right, it's the Kamakura family!"
Shi Zixuan nodded very seriously, and then said: "After my investigation, the Kamakura family may be related to Hyakki Island, but this possibility is only 50-50, so I have never mentioned this matter.
Speaking of which, the reason why I suspect that the Kamakura family is related to Hyakki Island is that, in addition to the mask made by Ibaraki that will only appear on Hyakki Island, another reason is that the ancestor of the Kamakura family, the Kamakura shogunate
The founder of Minamoto Yoritomo is related to Minamoto Yorimitsu, who once claimed to have killed Shuten Doji."
"Now we know one thing clearly, that is, Shuten-douji is alive and well in Hyakki Island, so Minamoto Yorimitsu's statement that he killed Shuten-douji is a lie, and Shuten-douji was indeed living in Rasei at that time.
door, so a very subtle thing arises - why did Shuten-douji cooperate with Minamoto no Yorimitsu's lies and choose to leave his hometown? You must know that Shuten-douji is not fighting alone, there are many people behind him
There are many powerful youkai such as Ibaraki Doji.”
"So, a long time ago, some people suspected that Shuten-douji and Minamoto Yorimitsu had reached an ulterior py deal, so Shuten-douji cooperated with Minamoto Yorimitsu to save face, and the most noteworthy thing here is-Momo
Onigashima was established, so Shuten Doji and Ibaraki Doji can be said to be the chief and deputy leaders of Hyakki Island. When something goes wrong, there must be monsters. Why would a group of big monsters choose to live on an overseas island? Except that some monsters are indeed offended.
Because I had to choose to go to Hyakki Island to escape the limelight because of some people, I think there are many youkai who went there voluntarily."
"Of course, I still don't know why these monsters do this, but I know that the headquarters of the Kamakura family is likely to be on Hyakki Island, and the new big monster on Hyakki Island is also very likely to be Kamakura
People from the Kamakura family, because we have heard a rumor about the Kamakura family before, that is, the Kamakura family has accepted many big monsters as hangers-on or thugs, so the cost of hiring these big monsters is not a small amount.
, and how can the Kamakura family support such a large expenditure."
Hearing Shi Zixuan's analysis, Liu Xing's mouth opened wider and wider, because although Shi Zixuan's reasoning sounded a bit outrageous, it was very reliable if he thought about it carefully.
Seeing that Liu Xing and others had accepted his reasoning, Shi Zixuan continued with great satisfaction: "So this is what I think now. Perhaps the content of the cooperation reached by Minamoto Noraimitsu and Shuten Doji at that time was to allow some big
Youkai becomes a member of the Minamoto family, perhaps a retainer or servant of the Minamoto family, or even a member of the Minamoto family. Therefore, the Kamakura family that is separated from the Minamoto family may be dominated by youkai. This can explain why the Kamakura family has a relationship with the Minamoto family.
Other families are different. Of course, the members of the Kamakura family who are active outside now should all be human beings, but they are all marginalized members of the Kamakura family."
"Shi Zixuan, your idea is a bit bold, but as a lover of conspiracy theories, I quite support your idea. Perhaps the Kamakura family is indeed a hidden line of Hyakki Island among humans, but we
