"You can disappear like this?! Then this may really be a Shenyin incident." Yin En said in surprise.
Uncle Eight sighed and said somewhat depressedly: "Yes, we all think this is a mysterious incident, because we really can't find any clues about Meizi's disappearance."
plum?
Liu Xing raised a brow, but she didn't expect Taichi Hiramoto's sister to be named Meizi.
However, the name Meizi is very common in island countries, so it is normal for duplicate names to appear... No!
If someone with the same name appeared in normal times, Liu Xing would just think it was a coincidence, but now, there have actually been three people with the same name - Sakai Umeko, Yamashita Umeko and Ping Moto Umeko.
Of course, more importantly, Sakai Umeko and Yamashita Umeko can be said to look exactly the same, and although this Hiramoto Umeko has not yet revealed her true face, Liu Xing estimates that she may be somewhat similar to Sakai Umeko... Wait!
Thinking of this, a bold idea suddenly appeared in Liu Xing's mind, that is, could Umeko Hiramoto be Umeko Yamashita?
Probably not?
Liu Xing thought for a while, but still rejected the idea, because the ages of Yamashita Umeko and Hiramoto Umeko did not match, and although Kujing Village had very little communication with the outside world, judging from what Taichi Hiramoto said before, since Yamashita Umeko
Being called the most beautiful woman in this area means that the appearance of Yamashita Meizi is still known to many people. Therefore, if Yamashita Meizi is really Hiramoto Umeko, the people from Goldfish Village would have gone to Kujing Village long ago.
.
Besides, why would Tatsumi Yamashita choose someone else's daughter as his own if he had nothing to do? This would not do him any good.
But then again, what is so special about that fish pond that makes it worthy for the secret church to hold a ceremony at the original site of the future fish pond, and also send a group of them to this world?
Regarding the answer to this question, Liu Xing felt that he definitely couldn't figure it out, so he asked directly: "By the way, Uncle Eight, your fish pond seems to be a bit far away from the village, so you didn't have anything to do with it at that time."
Near the village?"
"Aren't you afraid of something happening?"
Uncle Ba said with a wry smile: "Although our fish pond is less than one meter deep, it is still very easy for something to happen if someone accidentally falls in, because being able to fall into the fish pond means that the person's condition at that time was abnormal.
Yes, he is either drinking or not concentrating, and people are easily panicked when drowning. At this time, the person is likely to lose the ability to perceive the surrounding situation, and then he will most likely walk away.
Afraid that he could just stand up and save himself."
"Is there another reason for those fish? These fish were swimming well in the water, but suddenly a person fell down and scared them all. At that time, these fish would also swim around, and the drowning person discovered these
When a fish hits you, you will definitely be shocked; but as far as I know, some adults even drown in water half a meter deep, so Uncle Eight, don’t set up fish ponds in the village
The neighborhood is correct, not to mention those children will definitely choose to come to the fish pond to catch fish when they have no other place to play." Yin En continued.
Uncle Eight nodded and said with a wry smile: "In the end, despite all the calculations, we really didn't expect that this Shenyin incident would actually happen. Fortunately, the Taira family are also reasonable people, and they didn't do it because of this. It’s difficult for us... Although I don’t think there is anything wrong with our fish pond; the reason why we built the fish pond next to that intersection is mainly because there was a senior monk who chanted sutras at that intersection.”
Eminent monks chanting sutras?
What is this operation?
Liu Xing and Yin En both looked at Uncle Eight with puzzled faces, while Uncle Eight continued with a smile: "This story can be traced back hundreds of years to the Warring States Period. At that time, our area of Nagoya was the territory of the Oda family. , and Oda Nobunaga, as you all know, has never been able to deal with the local temple. Later, Mount Hiei even burned down, which made Oda Nobunaga a big man in the eyes of Buddhism. Demon King."
"As a result, some monks in Nagoya began to leave one after another to avoid being burned by Oda Nobunaga that day, so monks often passed by us to go to the seaside, and then took boats to other places. After all, the island country at that time was also in chaos, and the daimyo from all over the country were fighting fiercely, so it was easy to suffer disasters by swordsmanship when traveling by land, so the waterway was still safer, and of course encountering black ships was a different matter."
"So one day, a monk passed by our Goldfish Village and stayed for a meal, because this monk was an old friend of the then mayor of Goldfish Village, and this monk was also from a famous temple near Nagoya. The host was also a staunch opponent of Oda Nobunaga, so Oda Nobunaga directly expelled him; after eating, the village chief at the time was worried that there would be pursuers from the Oda family, so he took a few young people with him The villagers escorted the monk away."
"At that time, there was a tree at the intersection next to the fish pond. That tree may have been hundreds of years old, but this tree was struck by a bolt of lightning in a thunderstorm one month before the eminent monk passed by. It was split in half, but because this big tree was quite old, the villagers did not dare to turn it upside down to put firewood. After seeing the big tree, the eminent monk stopped and recited a paragraph. The scripture then said that this big tree can be cut down, but it must be burned on the spot, and then the charcoal and ashes should be buried directly."
"So the village chief at the time cut down the tree as suggested by the eminent monk, then burned it and buried it directly. In the next few years, our food harvest in Jinyu Village was almost half as much as before, so the villagers felt This was due to the monks chanting sutras. Although the harvest in our Goldfish Village returned to normal, our Goldfish Village and nearby villages have never lacked water, even in the driest years... But speaking of this The drought reminded me of another story."
Drought? Story?
Drought?
When Liu Xing thought of drought, Yin En had already said: "Drought? That shouldn't be the case. Nagoya is not far from the sea, so from a scientific point of view, it is impossible for Nagoya to be short of water, because there is water in the ocean. The water will evaporate to form water vapor, and then the water vapor will be blown to Nagoya with the sea breeze. Then it will start to rain as long as the conditions are met; not to mention that the groundwater resources on the seaside are also very rich, so you only need to drill a few wells. Water source.”
"It stands to reason that this is indeed the case, but there was indeed a severe drought in more than a hundred years, which was also accompanied by several earthquakes. In short, there was not much rain that year, and the groundwater was also damaged due to the earthquakes.
After the diversion, the surrounding villages were in mourning because there was no water to use, but the fields and wells on our side were all normal; but it is precisely for this reason that our Goldfish Village became a monster in the eyes of other villages.
Fragrant pastry."
"If you want to come to Goldfish Village to get water, you have to have an explanation, so the surrounding villages came to marry our Goldfish Village. As a result, there was no single person in Goldfish Village at that time, and there would be a wedding banquet every three to five days.
This was originally a very happy thing, but soon a tragedy occurred. To put it simply, a pair of lovers separated because of their parents' words, so the woman who was married to Goldfish Village committed suicide by taking poison.
He died, and her lover died for it."
"No one wanted to see something like this happen, so we sent the bodies of the desperate couple back without saying anything. Who would have thought that these two bodies would disappear within a few days?
flew away, so everyone thought that the two men were faking death to facilitate their elopement; by the way, the unlucky man was the ancestor of the Hiramoto family. It is said that he was once a samurai, and he was a guard at the beginning.
Join our Goldfish Village."
"Huh? It's interesting. Although the samurai from more than a hundred years ago are somewhat worthless, many samurai still maintain the last pride of being a noble. Generally, they will not come to look after the homes and courtyards of others, especially in
It’s a small village, so the ancestors of the Tairamoto family are a bit informal.” Yin En couldn’t help but said.
Uncle Eighth smiled again and said, "That's true, but the ancestor of the Taira family seems to have offended someone in the city, so he can no longer stay in the city, so he can only aggrieve himself.
But when it comes to the Tairamoto family, I remember that the Tairamoto family seems to have a samurai sword. Back then, someone wanted to buy this samurai sword at a high price, but the Tairamoto family rejected it on the first floor. "
"How can you just sell the things belonging to your ancestors? But a samurai sword can be preserved for so many years, which means that the samurai sword has a good background, and the materials used for forging should be good." Liu Xing said while eating fish.
While saying: "I also like to collect this kind of samurai sword, because it looks very cool, so are the Hiramoto family interested in selling this samurai sword now?"
"Then I don't know, because I haven't seen the eldest son of the Tairamoto family for a long time, and I think even if he is willing to sell it, he will only sell it to the big bosses in the city. After all, the katana sword is pretty good.
Popular; but although I don’t have a samurai sword at home, I do have an old antique at home.”
Uncle Eight got up and went back to his room, and walked out of the room after a while, "This is it. It is also a good treasure passed down from my ancestors. Unless it is a last resort, my family will not sell it.
Out."
Liu Xing looked at the big pearl in front of him and couldn't help but nodded and said: "This pearl is indeed a good treasure. If you put it up for auction now, Uncle Eight, you can become a millionaire at any time."
The "millions" in Liu Xing's mouth naturally refer to the beautiful sword.
"Hey, I also know that this pearl can make me a rich man, but I don't dare to sell this pearl casually, because this pearl has its own curse."
Uncle Eight placed the pearl in front of Liu Xing and Yin En, and said with a smile: "As the saying goes, this wealth must not be revealed, otherwise it is very likely that the wealth will be ruined, but this pearl will not be revealed."
Same, because after my ancestor fished this pearl out of the sea, it caused a sensation around it, and also attracted a group of people with ulterior motives. As a result, the pearl was stolen and robbed more than ten times. In the end,
It is still back in our hands. As for those thieves, robbers, merchants and nobles who carried this pearl, their families were ruined, and their wives and children were separated."
"Let me go, is this pearl so mysterious?" Yin En said in surprise.
Uncle Eight shrugged his shoulders and said in a pretentious manner: "Well, little brother, you can come and give it a try? If you had held this pearl when you were going down the mountain, I'm afraid that the clamp would have directly broken your aorta.
And the rust on the clip can give you tetanus."
Yin En also shook his head very cooperatively, pretending to be scared.
"Haha, this pearl is actually not that mysterious, because the people who took this pearl away through abnormal means must not be good people, so they often walk on the roadside, and there is no one who doesn't get wet shoes, so
These guys will have an accident within a few days. Of course, accidents here are inevitable. For example, the thief is caught by the government or is gangstered. The robber either encounters an iron nail and fights back, or is wiped out by the government. So this
The story became more and more mysterious, and the pearl was called a curse."
Uncle Eight put away the pearl and said with a smile: "But this is a good thing for my family, because then no villains will come to trouble us. However, this pearl has also become a little difficult to sell, because buying
Everyone is also worried that the curse will attack indiscriminately, and it will be bad if they are also affected by it."
While Uncle Eight went back to put the pearls, Liu Xing looked at Yin En and said, "Do you think this pearl will be a prop?"
"I think this pearl may be a prop in this world, but when we leave this world it will become an ordinary pearl, because according to our previous speculation, this world is what a child sees.
world, so if he has heard the story of this pearl, then this pearl may really have its own curse, and the effect is very powerful, but this is all based on the imagination of that child."
Yin En said with certainty: "But I think there may be something wrong with that fish pond, so how about we go back to the fish pond to take a look? Maybe that tree back then is the reason why we are here."
As soon as Yin En finished speaking, his eighth uncle walked out, so Liu Xing and Liu Xing ate their dinner in a hurry.
After eating and drinking, Liu Xing and his wife returned to the empty room.
