Chapter 359: The Ancestral Hall Trip (Part II)
In this world, there is no shortage of lucky people.
Just like Liu Xing's teammate White River City in the first mod, even in the Cthulhu area mod, you can get items related to Cthulhu and even trigger world quests... Although that parchment was found by Liu Xing...
Therefore, if Matsui Ichiro is lucky enough, it makes sense to pick up so many Ecstasy incense by chance, and this can also explain why Matsui Ichiro is so extravagant to use the precious Ecstasy incense in the eyes of knowledgeable people against the villagers of Fisherman's Village.
Thinking of this, Liu Xing had a lot of guesses.
However, for Alice, this explanation from Ichiro Matsui did not satisfy her, so Alice continued: "Oh, these are crafts from the Ryukyus? The style of these crafts is so strange that even the ukiyo-e style of the island country is not so exaggerated, but I probably wouldn't be surprised if they were featured in horror movies or games. ”
Even Liu Xing, a bystander, had already heard that Alice was secretly belittling these gods, so Liu Xing focused on Matsui Ichiro, looking forward to how Matsui Ichiro would react, after all, now from Matsui Ichiro's reaction, you can basically determine whether the idea in your heart is correct.
But at this moment, Liu Xing heard the sound of dice falling to the ground again.
"Oh, is that so, although I have been in the fisherman's village for many years, or I have never seen any horror movies or played horror games in my life, but these crafts do look a little scary, usually if the weather is bad, the ancestral hall will look very gloomy, I sometimes walk in and be startled by these crafts, although I have long been mentally prepared." Matsui Ichiro said with a smile.
Interesting.
Looking at Ichiro Matsui, who had a natural expression and a relaxed tone, Liu Xing is now more and more sure that Ichiro Matsui is a lucky liar, because Alice's mockery of those statues did not have any effect on Ichiro Matsui, so unless Ichiro Matsui is extremely deep in the city and has excellent acting skills, Ichiro Matsui cannot really be a missionary of the True God Sect of the Sea.
However, even now, Liu Xing is only sixty percent sure that he can confirm the speculation about Matsui Ichiro's identity, because there are still three doubts that Liu Xing can't explain clearly.
The first is the compound magic array, if Matsui Ichiro is really a charlatan with good luck, then who sketched this composite magic array, and the final effect of this compound magic array still needs to cooperate with a magician to finish it up, so Liu Xing can be sure that in this fisherman's village, there should be a magician, and in this fisherman's village, the only candidate for a magician is Matsui Ichiro.
Then why did Matsui Ichiro arrange for Yui Matsui to leave the Fisherman's Village for the "Immortal Jump" and bring back some people to act as villagers in the Fisherman's Village? It can't be that Matsui Ichiro is idle and has nothing to do, and wants to develop a fisherman's village, and if there is no backhand, it is very likely to attract the attention of the island police.
In the end, Liu Xing had just heard a strange sound in the room next to the ancestral hall, which had been nominally "abandoned" for many years, and had been sealed with cement doors and windows, although Liu Xing was still not sure what the sound was, but Liu Xing could be sure that this should be the sound of some kind of biological action, and the reason why these houses were closed by cement doors and windows should be to shut down these creatures, and Matsui Ichiro should be the insider and initiator of all this.
Therefore, Liu Xing felt that until these three doubts could not be explained clearly, he still couldn't be sure whether Matsui Ichiro was a lucky charlatan... Perhaps, Ichiro Matsui may be a charlatan with good luck and strength?
Just when Liu Xing was thinking nonsense, Alice hadn't given up trying to test Matsui Ichiro, "I see, then Mr. Matsui Ichiro, haven't you thought about disposing of these handicrafts, after all, these handicrafts are really a little out of harmony with the overall style and atmosphere of the Fisherman's Village Ancestral Hall." ”
Matsui Ichiro nodded without hesitation, and said with a smile: "Alice, you are right, these crafts are indeed not suitable for placing in the ancestral hall, but at that time, I also heard from others that these crafts can ward off evil spirits, so I simply put them in this ancestral hall, and they have been placed for many years, so it is not easy to deal with now, in case the villagers who bought these crafts know, I will inevitably be complained by them." ”
Matsui Ichiro's words were naturally an excuse in Alice's eyes, so Alice continued to press step by step: "Oh, is that so, although I heard that you island people believe in the so-called eight million gods, that is, everything is a god, but the painting style of these handicrafts should not be in line with your island people's view of gods, so although I am a foreigner, I still want to suggest Mr. Matsui Ichiro that you dispose of these crafts, I'll give you a batch of crafts from the outside that are suitable for the ancestral hall, and you see how it goes, Mr. Matsui Ichiro. ”
Liu Xing raised his eyebrows, and Alice's last sentence used the tone of an affirmative sentence, not a question sentence.
Therefore, Alice, who has always been aggressive, made the atmosphere of the scene tense.
And Matsui Ichiro looked at Alice with a solemn face and didn't say a word for a long time.
Liu Xing glanced at Zhang Jingxu and Ishikawa Ling beside him, while Zhang Jingxu and Ishikawa Ling shook their heads in tacit understanding, indicating that they would wait and see what happened.
Liu Xing turned his head and continued to look at Matsui Ichiro and Alice in the confrontation, and could only sigh in his heart that this NPC was quarrelling, and the player was really not able to interfere.
But things have come to this point, Liu Xing can be sure that Matsui Ichiro and Alice are not all the way, because Matsui Ichiro and Alice can't always be idle and act in such a play.
Unless Ichiro Matsui and Alice find out that their group is strange, but if this is the case, there is no need for Ichiro Matsui and Alice to act in such a play, just do it.
Therefore, Liu Xing silently took a step back and moved a little away from Matsui Ichiro and Alice in the confrontation, so as not to wait for the city gate to catch fire and affect the pond fish.
But at this moment, Miyako Wutong suddenly stood up and said: "Well, Mr. Matsui Ichiro, Miss Alice, I think you can sit down and discuss it later, after all, these handicrafts are indeed not suitable for a serious place like the ancestral hall, and these handicrafts really look a little fierce and evil, I now look from the perspective of outsiders, these strange-shaped handicrafts look like our Fisherman's Village Ancestral Hall is like a Longtan tiger's den." ”
Miyako Ichiro's sudden interjection made Alice and Matsui Ichiro have some surprises, but Liu Xing thinks that Miyako Sycamore at this time can be regarded as giving Alice and Matsui Ichiro a chance to borrow the slope to get off the donkey.
After all, Liu Xing felt that Alice at this time should have realized that she was a little too aggressive, and she was still in Matsui Ichiro's territory, isolated, so Alice felt that it was time for her to make a move.
Matsui Ichiro, on the other hand, didn't want to worry about this issue with Alice anymore, so he nodded first and said, "No problem, then time is tight now, let's hold the ceremony first, and then Miss Alice, we will slowly discuss this related matter." ”
"Okay, then we'll talk later." Alice spoke.
This matter is over for the time being.
Liu Xing shook his head with some regret, thinking that if Alice and Matsui Ichiro continued like this, a conflict would definitely break out, and then start dog-eat-dog, so that his group could reap the benefits of the fisherman.
However, if Alice really angers Matsui Ichiro, I'm afraid that Liu Xing and his party will also be implicated.
"Okay, without further ado, let's start the ceremony now, and now I hope that all friends can remain silent, because although the main purpose of the next ceremony is the blessing of relatives and friends, this is always a more serious ceremony, so I hope you can cooperate." Matsui Ichiro said seriously.
Liu Xing nodded and said with a smile: "Understood, Mr. Matsui Ichiro, but in addition to remaining silent, what regulations do we need to follow, or what do we need to do?" ”
Matsui Ichiro smiled and said: "This is not a big deal, as long as you bless the newcomer wholeheartedly, even if you close your eyes and recuperate, it is no problem, just listen to me, an old man, just listen to a few casual nagging words." ”
Liu Xing raised his eyebrows, and began to be alert in his heart, after all, according to Matsui Ichiro, his party only needs to empty their spirits, and when people empty their spirits, it is time for their will to start to weaken.
Therefore, Liu Xing suspected that Matsui Ichiro was ready to do it.
So, Liu Xing took advantage of the fact that Matsui Ichiro and Alice were not paying attention, and turned around and handed Zhang Jingxu and the others a look, suggesting that they should pay attention to Matsui Ichiro's dynamics.
At this time, Liu Xing saw the panda pig standing on the outermost part secretly take out a pair of earplugs and stuff them into his ears.
Sure enough, this panda pig is really a chicken thief.
However, Liu Xing felt that this panda pig's approach was still quite desirable, after all, unless it was like Cthulhu who could talk in the depths of the soul of intelligent creatures, the kind of spell that Matsui Ichiro might cast now that could affect people's hearts needed to achieve an important prerequisite, that is, the caster must hear the spell of the spell, so as to ensure the success of the spell.
Therefore, the panda pig with earplugs now is considered to have a layer of insurance.
However, Liu Xing was still speechless about the selfishness of the "Panda Pig", because the "Panda Pig" had already thought of this but did not say it, as if he was afraid that his group would snatch his earplugs...
At this time, Matsui Ichiro took out a few futons and put them in front of the incense tablet, and Liu Xing and the others also knelt down very cooperatively.
But at this moment, Liu Xing saw Matsui Ichiro carefully take out a stick of incense from a small cabinet.
Ecstasy?!
This was Liu Xing's first and only thought.
After all, those villagers in Fisherman's Village are all lessons from the past, so Liu Xing naturally regarded the incense in Matsui Ichiro's hand now as ecstasy incense, and there is a good saying - it is better to kill by mistake than to let go.
Therefore, Liu Xing immediately opened his mouth and said, "Mr. Matsui Ichiro, what is this incense in your hand?" ”
Matsui Ichiro was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "You said this incense, this was given to me by an outsider a long time ago, and the outsider said that he was a travel writer, and he came to our Fisherman's Village to collect wind when he was idle, and stayed in our Fisherman's Village for a long time, and finally wrote a book that he thought he was very satisfied with, and then when he left our Fisherman's Village, in order to show his gratitude, he gave me a lot of things that he didn't have to take with him." ”
"Among them, including these incense, the travel writer said that these incense was brought by him from the Huaxia region, and it was made by a well-known incense master in his hometown who spent a lot of time and energy, as well as all kinds of precious materials, if it wasn't for the travel writer who once helped the incense master write a biography, otherwise he would not have been able to get these incense."
"And these incense sticks are really good, because when lit, they give off a very nice smell and can make people feel calm, which is why the travel writer lit an incense stick every time he wrote, and when I passed by the travel writer's room, I could smell it from several meters away, so I now light an incense stick to create an atmosphere every time I have various ceremonies in the ancestral hall."
Matsui Ichiro's words made Liu Xing a little surprised, because the "travel author" in Matsui Ichiro's mouth sounded very much like that Li Yongjie?
And Li Yongjie is obviously a reporter in the letter with Inoue Ken'er.
Could it be that in order to make up a reasonable excuse, Ichiro Matsui borrowed and adapted the setting of "Li Yongjie"?
However, Liu Xing looked at Matsui Ichiro's extremely natural expression and tone, and suddenly felt that Matsui Ichiro was not lying.
Don't?
Liu Xing frowned, and when he was about to open his mouth to continue asking, Alice on the side said seriously: "Well, Mr. Matsui Ichiro, if you can, please don't light this incense, because I am allergic to some spices, and you also said that these incense are made of a lot of precious materials, and I think they should contain spices." ”
Matsui Ichiro raised his eyebrows, and after thinking for a moment, he nodded and said, "Okay then, I won't light this incense." ”
What's going on?
Liu Xing was a little stunned now.
