Next, Koichi Ota explained the origin of the Hyakmu Demon. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Hyakmu is a banshee with eyes all over her body, and it is said that the banshee specializes in seducing men and stealing people's eyes for her own use. If she takes a hundred eyes, the hundred-eyed demon will become a big demon who can't be subdued.

Legend has it that in ancient times, when a mage who slayed demons and eliminated demons went to recover the Hundred Eyes Demon, she had 98 eyes, and the evil light emitted by these 98 eyes made the mage unable to move.

In order not to be filled with 100 eyes by the monster, the mage self-destructed his eyes, and finally sealed the two main eyes on the head of the 100-eyed demon with the ash of Buddha incense, and finally subdued it.

The Hundred Eyes Demon is widely spread in this book and belongs to one of the famous monsters.

But the plot has changed a little in Beetsu Town, and the monsters are not necessarily all "evil".

Perhaps it is said that there is no Monkey King, and there are no "fiery eyes" - so the people of Betsutsu Town believe that because they have many eyes, they can see the past, the present, and even the future.

In a sense, at least the Hyakmu Demon is in Beetsu Town, and it is not a negative image.

The people here seem to worship the Hundred Eyes Demon very much, and they hope that there is such a "hundred eyes" fairy monster watching around them......

After Ota Hong finished talking about the ins and outs of the "Hundred Eyes Demon", Lin Lei frowned slightly and was silent.

Lu Yun and Qiao Yan looked at each other, and they both had a lot of questions in their hearts, but neither of them opened their mouths to ask.

The room that Ota Hongichi prepared for Lin Lei and the others was a large suite located on the west side.

This large suite has three small rooms as bedrooms and then shares a living room and also only one bathroom.

Since this is not a hotel, it is just a temporary reception of tourists by ordinary people, and more emphasis is placed on a "home" feeling.

Lin Lei chose the small bedroom near the door, while Lu Yun chose the middle one, and Qiao Yan chose the innermost one.

Everyone put their luggage away, and after a short rest, they all came to the living room.

The floor of the room was a standard Japanese-style wooden floor, hard, and Koichi Ota didn't even wear slippers, just walked on the floor with socks.

In some of the more traditional places, you don't even need to wear socks in the house, let alone slippers.

But the Chinese people don't have this habit, it is impossible for Lin Lei and others to play barefoot, everyone is wearing slippers.

Koichi Ota has prepared some of the best local teas in the living room, which are said to be rare and harvested from primeval forests.

is the so-called local customs, so Lin Lei used these tea leaves to make a cup of hot tea for himself, Lu Yun, and Qiao Yan.

In the living room, there is a fabric sofa that does not fit in with the Japanese style of the whole room.

In traditional Japanese architecture, people sit on the floor, and there are no sofas or anything like that. This sofa was apparently added by the owner, Koichi Ota, in order to take care of tourists from China or other countries.

At this moment, Lin Lei was sitting in the center of the sofa, and Lu Yun was sitting next to Lin Lei. The sofa could only accommodate two people, so Qiao Yan found a stool and sat opposite Lin Lei and Lu Yun across the coffee table.

Lin Lei picked up the fresh hot tea, took a shallow sip, and said with a smile: "This tea is really good, it has a unique fragrance feeling." ”

Lu Yun and Qiao Yan also took a sip and nodded again and again.

But-

The attention of the two of them was obviously not the tea in the cup......

Lu Yun frowned and asked in a low voice, "Lin Lei, why do I feel that something is wrong?"

"Boss, I'm ...... too"

Looking at Lu Yun and Qiao Yan's nervous expressions, Lin Lei restrained the smile on his face and said lightly: "As soon as I entered Beetsu Town, I felt that something was wrong......

"Ahh

Lin Lei put down the teacup in his hand, took out a piece of chewing gum from his pocket, and chewed it.

In the first few days of quitting smoking, Lin Lei, as an old smoker, was very uncomfortable. In fact, Lin Lei didn't smoke at all when he was studying before, but in order to perform undercover missions, he had to learn the habit of smoking.

Within a drug cartel, if suddenly someone doesn't smoke or drink, then it immediately attracts the attention of others.

The most basic survival condition for undercover agents is that they must not be conspicuous, otherwise they will not be far from death.

Lin Lei does not drink alcohol, to be precise, red wine and beer can be tasted superficially, while high liquor and spirits are never touched. The anesthesia of alcohol is easy to make people relax their vigilance, while smoking does not have this worry.

Now that Lin Lei has promised Lu Yun to quit smoking, it is mainly because he knows that he will never be able to be an undercover agent again, and there is no need to use smoking to disguise himself. Then quitting smoking is also a good choice.

Lin Lei chewed gum and said slowly: "After coming down from the top tunnel and entering the Beetsu Basin, especially in this section of Beetsu Town, I didn't see any surveillance cameras......

That's right, Beetsu is located in the Beetsu Basin, which is the largest protected area of primeval forest in Saimoto. It can be said that it is very primitive here, and the traces of modernization are not strong.

But-

Whether it's on the road or in the town, it's not difficult to install a few cameras, and it's also a good thing.

There is no monitoring in Beetsu Town, which seems too strange.

If you say that poor countries such as Myanmar or Cambodia, Afghanistan and Somalia have no money, it is reasonable to say that they have no money, but in a developed country like Ben, it is too ...... to have no surveillance

"It should be the faith of Beetsu Town. They believe in the Hundred Eyes Demon, and the biggest feature of the Hundred Eyes Demon is that it has a hundred eyes on its body, and if you set up a surveillance camera in an area that believes in the Hundred Eyes Demon, it seems to be disrespectful to the Hundred Eyes Demon. ”

Lin Lei gave the answer.

Lu Yun and Qiao Yan glanced at each other, and their faces showed a look of sudden realization.

I see!

Although Ota Koichi did not explicitly say that the Hyakmu Demon was the local patron saint, Lin Lei had already roughly deduced it.

Lu Yun nodded slightly, although what Lin Lei said was somewhat "subjective", it was the most likely situation.

After all, it's not a case to solve now, there is no need for any "evidence in court", and it is already very powerful to be able to reason out the answer through known conditions.

What's more, this kind of thing comes to Hirokazu Ota, and you will find out as soon as you ask......

"Well, what people believe in has nothing to do with us. We're here for a tour, so we'll have a good rest today, and I'll take you to Beeyue Hot Springs tomorrow—"

Lin Lei smiled slightly, stood up, and walked outside the house. As he walked, Lin Lei turned around and asked, "What do you want to eat at night?"

"Hmm-" Lu Yun nodded slightly, and looked at Qiao Yan: "Qiao Yan, what do you want to eat?"

Qiao Yan was thinking about what Lin Lei said just now, and was stunned for a moment, and blurted out: "Anything is fine......"
