Chapter 25 The Truth Comes Out
"How about you, how about you?"
"Ah!!" When Yi Xiao Naihe reacted, he was slumped by the window. Chang'an and Xila looked at themselves with concern, their expressions looked a little confused. Just now, Yi Xiao Naihe suddenly stood by the window in a daze, and then his legs became weak and sat by the wall. No matter how they called, the other party's expression was like a devilish man, and he didn't come back to his senses until now.
"I saw it, I saw it!" He stood up excitedly and said to the others: "I know where the way to live is... It's here, there is a secret passage below!!" He pointed at his feet excitedly, and then told the discovery just now.
After Yi Xiao Naihe finished speaking, they searched carefully. Sure enough, under an inconspicuous shrine, Jiang Li found a hidden mechanism.
But he did not rush to open the secret passage. Now, except for Chang'an, there is no prop that can resist the attacks of vengeful spirits in his hands. If he continues rashly, he may die directly below.
"We must find some more spiritual elimination props so that we can be sure." Sila suggested: "This is a shrine, and there should be no shortage of props. Let's go to other places to take a look."
Chang'an and Yixiao Naihe agreed, and Jiang Li nodded and followed them. He didn't say much along the way, as if he was thinking about something. The shrine is large in area and is built along the mountain, surrounded by large bamboo forests and pine trees. The road in the backyard turns left and right. If it weren't for being very familiar with this place, ordinary people would easily get lost.
But for some reason, there seemed to be a kind of force guiding them, especially Yi Xiao Naihe who was walking in the front. When everyone saw a small bamboo house that appeared in the forest, they finally stopped.
"This place should be the residence of the witches." Yixiao Naihe murmured.
At this time, Chang'an could no longer help but speak: "Don't you think something is wrong? Why do you know that the road here is so clear? How do you know that the witch lives here?" He and Jiang Li walked at the end of the team along the way. Everyone walked through several long and twisty paths and walked through the small bamboo forest for nearly twenty minutes. This place was leaning against the back mountain. The complex terrain made Chang'an almost unable to remember the road, let alone other people who came to the shrine for the first time.
"I don't know... I really don't know... it feels like that familiar feeling." Yixiao Naihe showed a confused expression on his face. He murmured with his head holding his head, as if he realized something was wrong with him.
At the same time, regardless of the danger, Sila went up and pushed open the wooden door and walked into the room. Seeing this, the others did not care about communication and immediately followed. They saw Sila skillfully entering the room, walked into the bedroom, opened the dressing table, and took out a red wooden comb from the drawer. The comb emitted a white halo, and this turned out to be a spiritual elimination prop!
"Sila...you?" Before Chang'an finished speaking, he spoke to the convenience: "You want to know why I am so familiar with this place, right?"
He walked up to the three of them, looked at them calmly, and said something that shocked everyone: "Because I am the reincarnation of Guanyue Maki."
"What..." Ichiko Naihe asked stammered: "Can I...I am Miyaji Takasaka?"
"Not bad." Xila nodded and said to them: "Let's go back to the early stage of the mission. From the beginning to the present, the scenes we see in our dreams are different. Not only that, the illusions we come into contact with later are also different. In addition to the mission intentionally trying to unite all players and share messages with each other, this is also a very important reminder."
The reason for this situation now seems very obvious: the six players entering the game correspond to the six plot characters who died in the Luoquan Village tragedy a hundred years ago. And this is the final setting of the game!
Only when Shira has the memory of Guanyue Maki, she is extremely familiar with her residence during her lifetime; Yixiao Nai is the reincarnation of Miyaji Takasaka, so she knows the clues about him hiding at home, and just triggers the plot about Takasaka. In Chang'an, his identity should be Jun Furukawa, the patriarch of Luoquan Village.
"So I am Masaki Hanyu." Jiang Li suddenly realized: "No wonder I always see the witch."
"I know Mo Yu's identity. She should be the youngest daughter of the Tokugawa family as the priest Sato mentioned. Later, she was chosen as a new victim." Ichiko Naihe recalled the illusion just now and was extremely confident: "That's right, this is exactly in line with the dream Mo Yu said at the beginning!"
According to his speculation, such a big scandal of the witch's body, it must not be known to other villagers. Once the truth is revealed, the priest and the palace officials will also be punished as sinners for their poor supervision and blasphemy.
In order to suppress the matter, the priest Sato secretly detained Masaki Hanyu and the witch, and instructed Takasaka to take people to the Tokugawa family, quietly executed the couple, and captured their daughter back to the shrine.
"What about the wind..." As soon as Chang'an finished speaking, Xira said calmly: "He should be a person in the shrine. The other party's dream and the scene of death are enough to prove this."
"No, he is the priest Sato!" Ichiko Naihe said excitedly: "Didn't Feng say that he had seen a man in the shrine? And that happened to be where Hanyu met a witch privately. In my memories just now, the priest Sato also said similar things in person. So obviously, Feng's dream is Sato's memory during his lifetime."
A hundred years ago, Sato broke through the secret meeting between Masaki Hanyu and the witch, and realized the intention of the two to elope, so he ordered people to detain the two and execute them cruelly. Although he didn't know what caused the failure of the ceremony and Luoquan Village fell into the end of the world, it is not difficult to see that this priest Sato should be the culprit of the tragedy a hundred years ago.
"It's a pity that Feng died too early, otherwise he might be able to provide more valuable information." Yi Xiao Naihe sighed. Although the other party's identity is a villain, this is just a random setting in the game after all, and it has nothing to do with the player himself.
Under Xila's guidance, everyone soon found a piece of talisman paper and a copper bell in the room - these are props used to dispel the vengeful spirits. After Jiang Li pulled out the wardrobe and searched, he accidentally fell while turning around. Fortunately, Xila reacted quickly and held the other party: "Is it okay?"
"Sorry, I was tripped a little." Jiang Li looked at the other party's hand holding on his waist, and in desperation, he pulled his collar and blushed.
And Sila seemed to have some favors for this beautiful and confused female player, but just smiled and reminded the other party to be careful. If she was afraid, she would hide behind her.
"Are you two acting in an idol drama? If the genders are changed, it will be even more perfect." Ichiko Nai thought of the reincarnation of the two of them, the witch Guanyue and Masaki Hanyu, and couldn't help but complain: "Then I should be considered the second male lead."
"At this time, I still have the intention to joke." Chang'an said helplessly.
