Chapter Seventy-Five: A Discussion of Gods and Monsters

After hearing Gao Quan's words, the eyes of the engineer Dazuo immediately widened, "Your Excellency, are you not afraid of insulting your noble surname by saying this, river monster, I, the Imperial Army of Japan, have been ordered by the emperor to carry out this holy war, how can any ghost have the help of our army blessed by the gods!" ”

Gao Quan shook his head, with an unteachable hatred of iron and steel, "Since you don't believe in the theory that there are spirits in the river, then, tonight, I will station my troops around the engineer wing to see if there will be any more mysterious incidents, what do you think of this idea!" ”

What is the idea, of course it is not very good, the matter was originally done by Gao Quan's troops, they don't leave, how can this matter end.

Lieutenant General Nakajima gave the engineer wing only two days to build the bridge, and the next day as long as the engineer wing was at full speed, it could be completed before dark, but all the engineers were busy until dark, but they did not even finish one-third of the day's workload.

That night, after Gao Quan's troops had dinner, they withdrew from the barracks of the engineer wing, and the barracks of the two armies were originally together, but Gao Quan said that in order to be better vigilant, he went directly to another barracks fifty meters away from the camp of the engineer wing.

That night, as expected, there was another supernatural incident, although the devils of the engineer wing, with the lessons of yesterday, have increased their vigilance at night, not only on duty plus double posts, even the patrol team has been sent out, but there are still disappearances and deaths at night, and there are even two soldiers standing guard, who were frightened crazy in the middle of the night, no one knows what terrible things they have encountered, these two guys cry when they see people, trembling all over, and even have the stench of feces on their bodies.

Someone was frightened crazy, this time can make the original don't believe in ghosts and gods Jinzhong Wuyi Dazuo confused, isn't there no ghosts and gods in this world, is there really these things, the heart is shocked and uncertain Jinzhong Dazuo, in desperation, had to invite Gao Quan into his wing headquarters again, Dazuo is very clear, since the division commander gave him two days to build a pontoon bridge, then, at the latest tonight, the division headquarters will inevitably send someone to check the progress of his project, that is, tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, there will be a large army to cross the river from these pontoon bridges, If the pontoon bridge is not built well, he will be held responsible.

Seeing Gao Quan's compassionate and compassionate posture, Dazuo was disgusted and wanted to vomit, but there was no way, whether it was a rush to the doctor or what, anyway, he had to come up with a solution today, Dazuo had already thought about it, as soon as this haunted incident was resolved, he immediately divided the people into two shifts, one during the day and one at night, and today began to rotate, and it was necessary to ensure that the pontoon bridge was built before the anger of the division commander came.

"Shao Zuo, since you think that the strange things that happened in the army were done by the monsters in the river, I guess Xinyou Shao Zuo must have a countermeasure in his heart, I don't know how Shao Zuo is going to solve this matter." Although there are requests for people, Jinzhong Wuyi still can't let go of Dazuo's shelf in the end, and if he says it, he is also hard.

Fortunately, Gao Quan didn't care about this, and after listening, he still replied to Dazuo's words with a smile: "Your Excellency Dazuo, please don't call the gods in the river monsters, you know, the river gods, in ancient Chinese mythology, but the most powerful immortals, immortals, always omnipotent, maybe, these words you say, the gods in the river can hear, in that case, it will be greatly disadvantageous to your bridge construction work!" ”

Looking at Dazuo's increasingly ugly face, the strange color on Gao Quan's face became stronger and stronger: "There is a very famous book in China, called "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", I don't know if Your Excellency Dazuo has read it!" ”

Now Zhong Dazuo was annoyed by Gao Quan's praise of Chinese immortals, and suddenly heard Gao Quan's words turn around, and he actually discussed books with him, and his mind seemed to be a little unable to turn around, and he couldn't keep up with Gao Quan's train of thought.

"No, I haven't read the book." Dazuo is a student of construction engineering.,Most of the books I usually read are books on professional knowledge.,It can be said,Imachu Takeshi is a senior expert in architecture.,For novels.,Especially Chinese novels.,There's no interest in this at all.,He doesn't understand.,This Shinyuemon Shaozo has nothing to do with him to discuss a Chinese novel.。

"No wonder you can't help it now." When Gao Quan spoke, he showed a deep tone of regret, ""Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is a strange book, you should really read it, there is a paragraph in the book, which is about: There was a military artist named Zhuge Liang in ancient China, he led the army to the south to fight, the war was won, and on the way back, when crossing a river called Lushui, the waves in the river were monstrous, and there was a faint strange sound coming out, and the army could not pass, which was due to the fact that in this war, too many people died in this river, and the resentment of the ghosts was too heavy. Zhuge Liang ordered people to use white flour to make human head-shaped food, called steamed buns, made a lot, threw them into the river, and set up a ceremony to sacrifice the souls, so that the army could pass safely, I think, Your Excellency Dazuo might as well learn from the ancients, and also make some steamed buns and throw them into the river to pay tribute to the river god! ”

"Oh." Jinzhong Wuyi scratched his head, this kind of practice is too weird, there are actually sacrifices in the army, but to openly sacrifice to the gods of China like this, it seems to damage the reputation of His Excellency Dazuo, and Dazuo is embarrassed.

Gao Quan was like this, with a mysterious smile on his face, quietly looked at Imachu Dazuo, and didn't make a sound, just waiting for the other party's decision.

On the one hand, he is a construction engineer who has always believed in science and data, and it is a bit intolerable for him to make this kind of feudal superstitious activity to worship ghosts and gods; On the other hand, the object of this sacrifice is the Chinese gods, or the monsters in the river, whether they will be reprimanded by their superiors and ridiculed by their colleagues in the future.

However, when he thought of the imminent anger, Nakajima Imasago, and the mysterious death of the soldiers of the Engineer Wing for two consecutive nights, he couldn't help but not give in, alas, the future will be talked about later, and it is only right to hurry up and find a way to get through the difficulties in front of him.

"Can you guarantee that I did what you said, that the progress of the project would return to normal, and that the strange events in the middle of the night would not happen again?" In the end, Imanaka decided to give in, but he still wanted a guarantee from Gao Quan.

"I can't, I can't give you any guarantees." Gao Quan refused, if he agreed, this devil used his brain a little, it was hard to guarantee that he would not doubt himself, how could he make such a guarantee, "I am not an immortal in the river, and I am not Zhuge Liang, this kind of thing, I just give you a suggestion, as for the final decision, it is still in your hands." ”
