Chapter 460: Nioh's Adventure! (5) Misui Yoshiemon Gate
"Treasure hunter?" Conan blinked his eyes and looked at Asa Yu with a strange expression, "This kind of person...... Isn't it really a profession in a novel? ”
"I thought so too." Asa Yu shrugged, "But there are indeed such strange professions in the world, and they can be seen in ruins and various places where there are legends and treasures all over the world. When I was in the United States, I saw treasure hunters digging holes in Yellowstone. ”
"I'm ......" Conan was speechless for a moment, "what about this guy...... Also a treasure hunter? ”
"Almost." Gray Yuan's cold voice came from the side, and the two turned around to find that Gray Yuan was holding a soaked cowhide notebook in his hand, which was only the size of a palm, and it looked like a notebook used to take notes, "This was found from this person's other pocket, and his identity is really so strange." ”
"It's full of information about treasures from all over Japan." Gray Plains gently twisted the glued pages, "There's even a detailed map. ”
"Is this true?" When the children heard this, their eyes widened, and the treasure hunt plot they had imagined in their minds had really become a reality, which made them feel excited.
"That's right." Gray Yuan glanced at Asa Yu and Conan, and saw that neither of them had any objections, so he continued, "Even this treasure hunt he remembers in great detail." ”
"Read it." Asa Feather narrowed her eyes slightly, and a hint of gold flashed in her amber eyes, "I think there is probably a clue to the murderer who killed him in this experience." ”
"'Found a partner who can help.'" Gray Plains read softly, "'Now, I will definitely be able to win over that nasty thief'......"
"Dirty thief??" Conan was stunned, then turned his head to look at Asa Yu, but he didn't think that Asa Yu also turned around, and was looking at himself with a strange face, the two looked at each other like this for two seconds, and each laughed.
Unexpectedly, going around and around, there are still acquaintances here!
"You, senior brother, really don't stop." Conan smiled and whispered to Asaba, "In this case, the situation is in our favor. ”
"Are you so sure he'll help you?" Asa Yu chuckled, "Don't forget, you just ruined one of his performances not long ago. ”
"Didn't I let him finish the most crucial part." Conan shrugged his shoulders absently, "Also, since he appeared here this time, it means that there must be something he can see, right?" ”
"Maybe that's it." Asa Yu turned around, no longer paying attention to the corpse, casually put the stone engraved with the word Yan into his pocket, and squatted down to look at the stone lantern, and although the children didn't understand why Asa Yu and Conan suddenly laughed just now, they saw that Asa Yu and Conan were focusing on something else, and hurriedly gathered around.
Asa Yu stared at the words carved on the inner wall of the stone lantern, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion for a while.
The text is in the style of a line, written entirely in ancient Chinese script, and the light feather caresses the carved text on the inner wall, reading it word by word.
"The Cave of Nioh is just a stone's throw away from the sun, and the Stones of Nioh are located in the place where all the elders gather to prosper and flourish." Asa Yu whispered in Chinese, "O man who is not afraid of the wrath of the king of benevolence, hold the stone that is larger than the palm of his fist in his palm, and recognize the eternal and unchanging principle." Misui Yoshiemon ......? As soon as Asa Yu finished reading, he turned his head and saw Conan with a wry smile and everyone with a confused face.
"That ......," Conan smiled wryly, "you just said Chinese......"
Conan doesn't know Chinese at all, but the little Chinese he understands even struggles to understand normal Chinese communication, not to mention that Asa Yu speaks ancient Chinese, and he is even more confused, not to mention those real children. As for Gray Yuan, it is a little better than Conan, she knows that Asa Yu has always liked Chinese, although she doesn't know why, but she has also learned a lot of things subtly, it doesn't sound so hard, but it is also half-understood.
"Uh......" Asa Yu reacted at this time, and had no choice but to repeat it in Japanese, and this time everyone understood what he said.
"Misui Yoshiemon?" Even if the previous ancient text was translated into Japanese, everyone was ignorant, but everyone understood the last name, and Mitsuhiko's eyes widened suddenly, "I remember it was at the end of the shogunate......"
"That's right." Conan smiled slightly, "It is said that he is a puppeteer of the ronin of the Sashoku faction who continues to provide financial aid. ”
"Puppeteer?" Asa Yu was slightly stunned, "Does this thing really exist?" ”
"Of course it is." Mitsuhiko couldn't wait to say, "There are also puppets now, just like some hotels use this kind of puppet to serve tea or wine to guests." ”
"It's an amazing craft." Conan chuckled, "Compared to today's robots, the puppets at that time did have a lot of craftsmanship in them that they still haven't figured out. ”
Qianyu tilted his head and was a little relieved, indeed, Zhuge Liang originally invented the wooden ox and flowing horse, and now people still don't know how to do it, what if there is a puppeteer in Japan?
"This Misui Yoshiemon puppet was very popular with the officials of the time because it was made to be lifelike." Conan smiled slightly, "That's why the generation became rich at that time, and people called him Organ Yoshiemon." ”
"So......" Mitsuhiko's eyes widened suddenly, "Could it be that there is a Nioh doll made by Misuzu Yoshiemon hidden here?" ”
"Nioh's puppet...... Motota shuddered at the thought of Nioh's terrifying appearance and when the puppet slashed at him with his sword.
"How is that possible?" Asa Yu sneered, "Even if there is this, it will be one hundred and forty years ago, and the puppet is stored in such a dilapidated house, and in one hundred and forty years, it is estimated that it will have become a pile of rotten wood, how can it have any power." ”
"Nioh's Stone ......" Ashbara stood beside Asaba, thought for a moment, and then said softly, "Is what is hidden in this house the Nioh Stone?" ”
"Clever." Asaba chuckled and pinched Gray Yuan's little face, making her blush for a while, "If it's hidden, what is hidden here is also the Stone of Nioh that has been immortalized for eternity." ”
"Immortal?" Conan was pondering the meaning of those words, and when he heard Asaba's words, he raised his head suddenly, "You mean, the Stone of Nioh hidden there is ......"
"That's right." Asa Yu smiled slightly, "In that case, it can also explain why he came here." ”
Qian Yu slowly raised his head and looked at the ancient mansion in front of him, as if the pure white figure was standing there quietly.
