13.4 Curse of the Deity of Loei Event 4
Wakamatsu was a traditional fisherman's power representative, and since he was also a fisherman, he was easily supported by the majority of the island's fishing industry at that time, and succeeded in becoming a local councillor. Of course, as he promised during his election campaign, Wakamatsu supported and protected the interests of local fishermen selflessly, silently, and unchangeably. But now, in just a few years, the number of people willing to engage in traditional fishing is getting smaller and smaller, and Wakamatsu himself is hesitating.
Wakamatsu was silently thinking when the man, who had been in a state of anger, suddenly stood up, and at the same time easily broke a 4-centimeter-diameter branch in his hand into two pieces and threw it into the fire among the crowd.
Angry man, "A group of guys who forget their righteousness when they see money, one by one they see wired earnings, they forget their ancestral industry and traditions." All of them can't get rid of their hillbilly status!"
Everyone's eyes turned to Takeshi Wakamatsu, who was now sitting in the middle, looking forward to it.
A cold-faced man who had never spoken spoke at this time, "Brother Wu, what do you mean? The current situation is obviously that that guy Ogata is establishing himself as a gang with that little detective, and at the same time establishing the image that person is a benefactor of Li Island. If this person is really on the Ogata campaign, then just putting on a name will also be a huge help. Many people on the island now say that the man is the benefactor of Ledo. ”
The cold-faced man was worried, "Brother Wu, you can't go on like this." If this continues, the hearts of the people of Li Island will be scattered!"
Wakamatsu Takeshi, "I'll think again!"
The cold-faced person is ruthless, "Sooner or later, we have to take this step, it's better to hurry up than to hurry, the later the situation is unfavorable for us." ”
Ruomatsu Wu looked up at the cold-faced man, "Are you sure about this matter?"
The cold-faced man laughed cruelly, "This is a real god incident! I don't believe that he can solve it! I want everyone to know that the gods of Li Dao are angry, and I don't believe that anyone dares to build any industrial park on Li Dao! Li Dao is still the original Li Dao, and the people of Li Dao are still the original Li Dao people!"
…………………………
Li Dao Industrial Park has not been here for nearly four or five months, and it is very different from when Du Ping and Miyako first came. Of course, the buildings and roads in the park have not changed, but the appearance of the houses and roads have been modified and increased in color and pattern, and the plants on the roadside are no longer the same as the original neat plants, lawns, flowers, and each road will be different. The whole park no longer has the powerful shock and pressure of entering an army and a machine.
It was the second day of his arrival at Koh Raku, and after a brief meeting in the morning, the Kuroda Industrial Park arranged for the participants of the entire academic conference to begin a tour of the current Kuroda Industrial Park on Koh Le. He was accompanied by the Minister of Security, the 400,000 Takuro, and several female white-collar staff who introduced the park. They used professional amplification equipment to introduce the entire Kuroda Industrial Park to the visiting team of the entire academic conference.
Entering a two-story administrative unit overlooking a huge modern industrial building, the academic conference group is looking at the current state of the reformed and adjusted production line. The situation before the reform, there are photos in the hands of every member of the academic group, and it can be seen that at that time, the uniform was unified and the region was unified. The current situation is that the three huge production lines here have been divided into red, yellow, and blue areas by the colors of the ground, and the production line workers in the three areas are still exactly the same, but they wear a small scarf that is different for each production line. And now there is no longer such a big shock scene of unified rest, but someone will occasionally leave the production line for a shift break.
Although he suggested the relevant reforms, but when it comes to the real situation again, Du Pingping still feels very much. In particular, among this group of experts and scholars, he may be the only one who has truly seen and experienced the serious difference between the two before and after. So the feeling in my heart is even deeper. Inadvertently, Haruo Koishikawa appeared next to Du Pingping.
Haruo Koishikawa, "How do you see your plan and results, and how do you feel?"
To be honest, although I put forward my ideas, I think that the people who can actually implement them are the greatest!"
Haruo Koishikawa smiled, "You're praising me?"
"Yes, you are great, and to be honest, I should thank you for being me, but it was you and the Kuroda family who helped me succeed." ”
Haruo Koishikawa looked at Du Ping seriously for a while, and suddenly smiled, "You think too much! In this matter, I and the Kuroda Group have each reaped enough benefits." ”
Du Ping really thinks that Kuroda-sama has vigorously supported him because of his small contribution to Miss Matsuko. But now Haruo Koishikawa's words seem to reveal another untold story.
Du Fair, "Benefits?"
Haruo Koishikawa nodded, "Yes!"
Haruo Koishikawa looked at this huge factory building and the direction of the entire park with deep affection, "I will leave here in half a year at most." ”
Du Ping was really surprised this time, "You're leaving here?"
Haruo Koishikawa glanced at Du Ping's eyes and suddenly smiled, "It's not a demotion, it's not a flat move, it's a promotion! It's a big promotion! The Kuroda Group has already obtained the construction and development project of the largest industrial park in Dongzhou, Zhaoguo, and I will be the top person in charge there, carrying out the construction, development, operation, and management! The reason why the Kuroda Group was able to successfully defeat seven or eight world-class industrial giants this time is that your report has played a very, very big role!"
Du was puzzled, "My report?"
Haruo Koishikawa smiled, "Yes, your report, because we are the only ones in the Kuroda Group who have taken into account the theories of your report. And none of them have it! Only we, the Kuroda Group, have this kind of experience in turning theory into practice, and they don't have either! If the final result is that we defeat them completely and get this huge cake!"
Du Ping suddenly understood why at that time, the Kuroda Group was in a hurry to push himself and his report to the journal Nature, why he would spare no effort to support his report, and sure enough, Kuroda-sama was still cold to the point of being a rational existence. There are only such people who lead, and the people below are more willing to work hard, right?
A square cup with wine, I don't know where Haruo Koishikawa got it, and put it in the hands of Du Fair. Of course, Haruo Koishikawa naturally also has a square cup half full of wine like this in his hand.
Koishikawa Harukawa raised his glass and suggested, "For the Kuroda family!
Du raised his glass, "For the Kuroda family!
…………………………
Midnight, Koh Lai.
Due to the arrival of Kuroda Industrial Park, the foreign population of Ledo Island has been increasing in the past two years. The current situation is that the resident population of Loei Island has exceeded 100,000, and the foreign population has exceeded half, which has exceeded the number of local residents of Loei Island. In addition, the reform of the Kuroda Industrial Park since last year has caused many employees who previously only rested and consumed in the park to go to the town on their own days off to make various purchases. While this situation has brought great benefits to the local economy, it has also created many problems that did not exist in the first place. For example: quarrels, fights, robberies, and thefts. These things have never happened when the island was relatively closed, but such things happen all the time. The old people often lament the lack of old people and the decline of law and order, but the young people do not care about this. Although there are no major public security incidents, small disputes and disputes certainly occur from time to time. Therefore, it has put tremendous pressure on the local police force, which is already insufficient.
A police car parked on the side of the road, two patrol officers are patrolling. Now the intensification of patrols has become a powerful means for the Loshima police to maintain social stability. Daily patrols in some prone areas have also become a part of the daily routine of the local police. It was the same tonight, and it turned out that the night was a time of high occurrence for many events, especially at midnight, and some alcoholics who had to come out of the tavern were an important factor in the production of many things. However, the government of the town of Lo does not allow acts that undermine the local economic development, so the pressure on the local police is all on the local police.
It's time for the two patrolmen to go on their daily patrol here, the police car is moving slowly, and one of the patrolmen takes out his thermos cup and prepares to drink water. At this time, the patrolman who was driving the car suddenly screamed, startling his partner next to him.
Patrol A, "Ah!"
Patrol B, "What's wrong?"
Patrolman A, "I seem to see a ghost. ”
Patrol Officer B, "Are you still ghosted! Have you ever seen a ghost? Do you know what a ghost looks like? You're dazzled!"
Patrol A, "White, humanoid, flying through the air, what do you say?"
Patrol Officer B first clasped his hands together and chanted, "Nan no Amitabha", and then began to express his indignation at his partner.
Patrol Officer B, "Phew, Phew, Phew, It's midnight, you're talking about this, it looks like I'm going to kowtow to the temple tomorrow......"
Suddenly, a white figure flew through the air from a distance of more than ten meters in front of the two-person car. made Patrol Officer B's face turn pale, and his words stopped. Patrol Officer A grabbed Patrol Officer B.
Patrol Officer A, "Did you see that?"
Patrol Officer B, "No...... Not...... No, I didn't see anything!"
Patrolman A, "You must have seen that!"
Patrolman B, "You...... You're talking nonsense!"
Suddenly, there was a knock on the left window. The two of them looked at it, and a woman in white with long black hair covering her entire face seemed to slowly rise from the ground. Then he made a long, slow voice, like a ghost voice floating, "Have you seen our family's Ah Feng?"
Two patrol officers, "Hell!"
The two opened the car door on the right and fled.
…………………………
In the early hours of the morning, several police cars whizzing with police whistles lined up and arrived at a local shrine. It is one of the oldest temples in Koh Loei and is dedicated to a local deity called the Seven Teeth, which is said to protect the local people from other demons and monsters. According to the time at the time, it has been enshrined for more than 800 years.
It is said to be a temple, but in fact, it is more like an ancient wooden house in the forest, although there are bells and shrines in front of the door, but it is not as good as the ancient temples in the Eastern Capital and Tibetan Horse. However, as a well-known local deity, there are still many townspeople who worship this deity. It's just that after the young people in the town kept leaving the town in the previous two years, it began to decline. In the past two years, new immigrants have come over, and they will not believe in the unknown gods of this remote place. So in the past two years, in addition to the old people who will come to worship from time to time, it has actually declined.
The police car stopped in front of the shrine's torii, and more than a dozen uniformed officers stepped out of the car, followed by the police station chief with angry faces on his face. More than a dozen bright flashlights shone up, and the director of the police station organized his team and led the way into this seemingly uninhabited shrine.
The procession lined up in two rows and walked past the mountain gate torii gate and a small slope formed by dozens of steps. The stairs are flanked by dense, dark woods. Without hesitation and without hesitation, he walked up the steps to the open space in front of the temple.
The chief of the police station first unconsciously stopped his steps at the front, and the police officers who followed him habitually kept jumping, forming a huge fan on both sides of him. Then, like their director, they stopped their steps without sinking themselves, and they were shocked one by one.
A row of flashlights illuminates the square in front of the temple. But no one dared to move, and at this moment time seemed to stop.
I don't know who made the first sound of wanting to vomit, and then, as if the switch of something was activated, one by one the police officers covered their mouths, bent over, and kept fleeing from here, rushing down the stairs and running out of the torii. One by one in the open space outside the torii, they crawled on the ground and bent over and vomited.
Behind the countless police officers, behind the torii gate and the stone steps, in the middle of the small temple square of forty or fifty square meters, a person who had no skin all over his body, and a person with only the bright red and hideous subcutaneous musculature, was kneeling there, motionless and religiously prostrate in the direction of the temple gate, with his head facing the gods and goddesses in the temple. His abdominal cavity was connected to his internal organs, which resembled a blood-colored rope that formed a large pattern around him that resembled some kind of rune, a pattern of human internal organs. A hideous, terrifying, blood-colored, primitive, savage pattern, exuding a certain aura of blood, ferocity, mystery, and terrifying.
After that, the villagers came, and the villagers left. More after that.
After that, the reporter came, and the reporter retired, but more often.
After that, the mayor came, and the mayor left, still leaving his own people.
Afterwards......
…………………………
In the morning, before dawn, Du Pingping, who was still resting in the hotel room, was suddenly startled by an urgent knock on the door. When I opened the door, I found that Haruo Koishikawa, the general manager of Kuroda Industrial Park, was standing there with an ugly face. It was Kazuko who opened the door, Du Ping stood behind Kazuko, and Miyako stood beside Du Ping.
Du Ping was surprised, "Koishikawa?"
Haruo Koishikawa didn't care that the few people in front of him were still wearing pajamas, and rushed into the room with a man and closed the door.
Haruo Koishikawa, "Du, we're in trouble!"
…………………………
Every place will have its own mythological story, and the older the place, the more ancient the mythological story. The same is true of the place in Koh Lai.
The seven-toothed deity of Li Island is such a god that was created because of the curse, or the primordial curse. In that ancient era, there were no territories, landlords and the like on Li Island at that time. At that time, Koh Lo was just occupied by a group of pirates, and then something quite normal happened. The wife of a beautiful fisherman named Seven Teeth was taken by the leader of the pirates, and then the idea of illegal possession was born. But Nanachi and her husband are very affectionate, so they refuse, resist and run away. In the end, the two people who tried to escape were captured. The husband of the Seven Teeth and the old man of the husband were killed, the kind of killing that opened the stomach and ate people. Then the seven-toothed child was killed, the kind of killing that ate meat and drank soup. In the end, only Seven Teeth survived by the pirates due to their bestial desires.
So one night, the desperate, helpless, and hateful Seven Teeth cursed the pirates on the island. She peeled off the skin of her whole body and offered it to the devil in the darkness to seek its help, and she made a pact with the devil with her internal organs, and she exchanged her life and soul for the devil's help. Then the pirates who had killed her entire family all died of her curse, a painful death. It is the kind of terrible, cruel, and murderous way of death that tears the skin of one's whole body with his fingers and eats his own internal organs with his teeth.
The villagers of Seven Teeth then gathered her body and built a temple there to worship her. Since then, Seven Teeth has been the protector of the island, protecting the local people from pirates for hundreds of years. Legend has it that if someone is willing to sacrifice his skin, his own internal organs, his own soul to this deity, then he can also curse whoever he wants to curse.
This is the terrible legend of the seven-toothed deity in Koh Lai. It is a native deity that arose as a result of a curse. You might think it's just a story, a legend, something that doesn't correspond to reality. But the locals of Koh Lo believe in it! believe in its existence, and believe that it is precisely because of the protection of this god that Lo has never been seriously invaded by pirates for hundreds of years. It is unbelievable that someone is now resorting to such a trick in order to attack Yoshihiro Ogata and the Kuroda Enterprise.
Haruo Koishikawa, "I can't imagine it! These guys would resort to such obscene and shameless methods just for their own thoughts and interests. This is a great challenge to the Kuroda family! It is a great damage to the interests of the Kuroda family!"
After Haruo Koishikawa released his anger, he looked at Du Ping and said seriously, "I have already informed the adults of this matter. Your Excellency demands that this matter must be handled and resolved, and it will not only affect the huge interests of our Kuroda Group in the Ledo Industrial Park, but will also have a huge impact on the industrial park projects we are carrying out in Zhao Guo and other countries! This is not a small incident that is dispensable, it is a major event that is a matter of life and death!"
Haruo Koishikawa's eyes were blazing, like a bull attacking the enemy line. Haruo Koishikawa seems to be silently telling Du Fair: This is a war, a war that belongs to the Kuroda family. Members of the Kuroda family, retainers, and samurai must fight to the death for the good and honor of the family!
