"That's right, although there are one or two words that I didn't quite understand, but overall that's what it means. So our previous guess may be wrong. It's not that the mysterious organization has blocked Tanegashima, but that there are still people on Tanegashima.
There are other mysterious powers." Li Hanxing said very seriously.
At this time, Liu Xing also came over and carefully looked at the content on the stone tablet. He found that it was similar to what Li Hanxing said, but some details were intentionally omitted by Li Hanxing.
For example, the person who carved this stone tablet has a very special identity, that is, he is the illegitimate son of a large family on Kyushu Island, and his name is Saburo Otomo.
This is very interesting.
The Otomo family can be regarded as an ancient family that has been passed down for nearly a thousand years, because the history of the Otomo family can be traced back to the Minamoto Yoritomo period, and the ancestors of the Otomo family may have been the bastards of Minamoto Yoritomo, so they were directly enfeoffed by Minamoto Yoritomo.
The Kyushu region is the guardian; of course, the Daimyo during the Warring States Period liked to identify their ancestors randomly in order to improve their bloodline, so some people think that the Otomo family recognized Minamoto Yoritomo as their ancestor in order to have the blood of the Genji family, and the real ancestor of the Otomo family should be
It was Kondo Nonao, the adopted son of a powerful official during the Kamakura shogunate period. Although he held a high position, his bloodline was not noble.
But no matter what, the Otomo family can be regarded as a family that has existed in Kyushu since the Kamakura shogunate. It can be said to be a dominating family. In the Kyushu region, there is no other rival except the Shimazu family... But then again,
The main reason why the Shimazu family and the Otomo family are able to maintain superficial harmony is that the ancestors of the two families claim to be descendants of Minamoto Yoritomo, because their mothers are both concubines of Minamoto Yoritomo, so from a certain
From this perspective, the Shimazu family and the Otomo family were originally one family.
Back to the topic, Otomo Saburo was an illegitimate child and was sent to the countryside to be raised as an ordinary child since he was a child. Although his parents had never seen him, they still arranged for him to go to the local temple to study.
Because various official positions in ancient island countries were basically monopolized by big families, and many books at that time were written in Chinese, this eliminated the possibility of ordinary people becoming self-taught. After all, they wanted to understand these things.
To read books, you have to learn Chinese language first, and those who know Chinese language are basically nobles. How could they come to a language tutoring class without any trouble?
This is the scary thing about monopolizing knowledge, because if you want to improve your status, you have to learn knowledge, but if you want to learn knowledge, you must first reach a certain status, which leads to an endless cycle with no solution.
.Faced with such a predicament, we can only choose to give it a try and use force to defeat luck.
However, everything has exceptions. Regardless of whether it is ancient or modern, at home or abroad, there will be a gap among the people that even the emperor cannot stop, and that is Taoist temples/shrines/temples/churches, because these organizations need to study various scriptures to inherit themselves.
Therefore, Taoist priests/monks/priests/priests with some status need to conduct various studies, so these places have become the only places for ordinary people to learn knowledge.
Especially in island countries, because the monks in the temples not only have to chant sutras and meditate, but sometimes also go down the mountain to fight with the daimyo, or perform the duties of doctors, so the temples in the island countries will teach a variety of knowledge at that time, so you can
It is said that it is a real school in the island country. Sometimes, because some martial arts families cannot find an excellent teacher to teach their children, they will reach strategic cooperation with famous temples around them and send their children to the temples to become "resident students."
”.
However, because Otomo Saburo is an illegitimate child, if he studies and lives under his real name in the temple, it is very likely that other children in the Otomo family will find out about it. Otomo Saburo may be in trouble by then, so Otomo Saburo changed his name to Sato Sho.
He entered the temple, and then something happened when he was sixteen years old, and he had to follow the refugees to Tanegashima.
Of course, the most important thing is that Otomo Saburo seems to have realized why Tanegashima became what it is now, so he made this stone monument at the last moment of his life and buried it deep underground, because he
I feel that only in this way can I leave the truth to future generations.
However, because the capacity of the stone tablet is limited, Otomo Saburo found that there was not much space left for him when he wrote to the end, so he had to mention a clue. It was in his home. If it was not destroyed, it should be able to be seen at a glance.
arrive.
Unfortunately, Saburo Otomo would not have thought that hundreds of years would have passed when this stone monument was rediscovered, so no one knows where Saburo Otomo's home is now.
However, considering the weight of this stone tablet and the physical condition of ordinary islanders at that time, Liu Xing estimated that Otomo Saburo would not be able to drag such a large stone tablet too far away to bury it in a crisis-ridden situation. Therefore, Otomo Saburo
My home should be near the factory area.
etc.
Thinking of this, Liu Xing suddenly realized why Li Hanxing didn't tell these things. The reason was that Li Hanxing had already guessed that Otomo Saburo's home was nearby, and it might be under the factory next to it, or that it had some meaning.
Unknown control room!
As Tanegashima Teruyuki said before, this factory area has been completely controlled by the Yamamoto faction, and building a control room is not a shameful thing, so there is no need for the Yamamoto faction to build a control room underground.
When something goes wrong, there must be a monster.
If nothing else, this control room is actually just a deception. The purpose is to make people who find this control room confused. However, because this control room can see everything at a glance, this confusion is just a doubt. The discoverer has a big chance.
It is unlikely that there is another "house" below this monitoring room.
But now there is another possibility, that is Shimazu Hiromichi lied!
Liu Xing looked at Shimazu Hiromichi and found that Shimazu Hiromichi's expression was a little solemn now. He didn't know if he suspected that Li Hanxing had told lies. However, this did not prevent Liu Xing from suspecting Shimazu Hiromichi because he had gone underground now.
The only person in the monitoring room was Shimazu Hiromichi, and after leaving the basement, he also said that there was nothing down there, which could be regarded as a conclusion for the basement. In this way, neither Liu Xing and others nor Gu Muming could
It's better to go down and find out, because doing so means not trusting Shimazu Hiromichi's performance.
So the situation in this basement may not be as simple as Shimadzu Hiromichi said.
In addition, Liu Xing set his sights on Otomo Seiraka. Although Otomo Seiraka said that he brought people to conduct an "investigation" because of the incident on Tanegashima, Liu Xing suspected that Otomo Seiraka might be doing it for Otomo.
Tomosaburo came, but the reason why Liu Xing was so suspicious was a bit far-fetched, that is, Liu Xing felt that the Cthulhu Run Game Hall would make such an arrangement, because only in this way can the dramatic conflict of this module be deepened.
Moreover, the reason why Tanegashima became what it is today may also be related to the "accident" mentioned by Saburo Otomo, and that "accident" forced Saburo Otomo to leave the temple, so Liu Xing suspected that this
It is possible that Otomo Saburo took something from the temple, and this thing was triggered for some reason after arriving at Tanegashima, so Tanegashima was blocked by some unknown force, so Otomo Saburo
At the last moment, you will realize that it is the things you brought that have made you cornered.
It seems that the plot of this module is getting more and more interesting.
"If the content on this stone tablet is true, it means that a similar situation has occurred in Tanegashima many years ago, but as I speculated, this situation will not last long, so you
The Tanegashima family was able to take root here, and there have been no problems for hundreds of years. However, due to some unknown reasons, Tanegashima has once again experienced the same situation as before."
Gu Muming frowned and said seriously: "So judging from the current situation, what made Tanegashima look like this should be a powerful treasure, and its triggering conditions are also very simple, otherwise it would be impossible.
It starts automatically like this... Now I am thinking of a legendary treasure, and this treasure seems to be related to the Otomo family."
After Gu Muming finished speaking, he looked at Otomo Xilong.
When Otomo Xilong saw that everyone around him was looking at him, he could only sigh and said: "Yes, our Otomo family once had such a treasure, called All Directions, Dragnet, uh, the name is indeed
It's quite secondary, but its effect is still consistent with the name. It can directly block an area after activation, and no one can leave this area regardless of life or death; however, this treasure has been stolen many years ago.
He left, because the head of the family at that time was a great believer in Buddhism, so he sent this treasure to the temple for consecration, hoping that it would become more powerful after receiving the blessing of Buddhism, but suddenly it disappeared one day."
as expected.
Liu Xing couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. Unexpectedly, he guessed the true purpose of Otomo Seraka's visit. However, this was actually revealed when Shimazu Hiromichi introduced Otomo Seraka. That is, even if Otomo Seraka acts as a firm opponent,
The Shimadzu faction should not wading into troubled waters at this time. After all, the Otomo family is a friendly partner of the Shimadzu family, so other families can go to the island to investigate at will, but the Otomo family cannot do this.
, because this will definitely destroy the relationship between both parties.
Unless the Otomo family has a reason to do this, for example, the artifact that the family owned back then suddenly became available on Tanegashima, so the Otomo family had to send someone to lead a team to the island; but because of this matter, someone must stand up and take the blame to reduce the number of incidents this time.
The incident had an impact on the relationship between the Shimazu family and the Otomo family, so the person leading the team became the opposition Otomo Hoshitaka, because it was more reasonable and reasonable for him to stand up at this time, and he did not need to tell the real reason why he came to Tanegashima.
Of course, now that Gu Muming has come close to telling the truth, Otomo Xilong has to admit his purpose of coming, because there is no point in denying it anymore, not to mention that the major families in the island country have continued for so many years, which has long caused
There are no secrets in each family, everyone knows each other too well.
"That's it. I asked you, brother Otomo, why did you suddenly become obsessed with lard and bring someone to investigate the Shimazu family's household affairs when you have nothing to do? It turns out that it's because your Otomo family feels that your treasure is on Tanegashima.
?" Shimazu Hiromichi frowned and said, "It seems that your Otomo family is worried that our Shimazu family will steal that treasure."
Otomo Shitaka immediately shook his head and said seriously: "Brother Hiromichi, you are thinking too much. Our Otomo family can be sure that the theft of that treasure has nothing to do with your Shimazu family. After all, the Shimazu family and us at that time
The Dayou family didn't have many interactions with each other, and we immediately identified the person who stole the treasure... Unfortunately for our family, it was actually a member of our Dayou family who stole the treasure, and then disappeared.
At that time, we thought that the man would flee to Honshu or Shikoku Island, but to our surprise, he did the opposite and went directly south to a dead end."
Hearing what Otomo Hosotaka said, Shimazu Hiromichi's expression became a little better, "That's true. It was not easy for ordinary people at that time to run to Tanegashima, so escaping southward was theoretically a dead end, and
If we escape to Kyushu or Shikoku Island, it can be said that the sky is as high as the birds can fly, and the sea is as wide as the fish can jump; then the question is, how long can this treasure be sealed off?"
Otomo Xilong looked at Gu Muming and said: "As Mr. Gu Mu said before, this treasure can only maintain the blockade for about a week at most, and if we attack this invisible blockade, we can speed up
Consume the energy stored in that treasure; however, this treasure can absorb all kinds of energy for its own use, so if it is in a high-energy area now, it can continuously replenish energy, so the duration may be extended.
Until one month later.”
"That's not possible. The food reserves on Tanegashima are not enough for us to stay for that long." Shimazu Hiromichi said to Furugi Mei: "Mr. Furuki, do you have a way to determine the whereabouts of that treasure now? Logically speaking, it would be like this
A treasure that continues to function should produce obvious energy fluctuations."
Gu Muming twitched the corner of his mouth, shook his head and said: "Don't pretend you don't understand here. Everyone knows that after a treasure like this exerts its effect, its energy fluctuations will stay on the outside, so we inside can't detect it.
To see its energy fluctuations, unless I am very close to this treasure, that is, I can see it with my naked eyes, but I can see it, so I still need to feel the energy fluctuations of this thing?! So don’t expect it
