Tsukamoto said: "Master told us... he counted his own doom, and the biggest regret in his life is that he failed to destroy 'it'... …
"Although Master sealed 'it' on the spot back then, this seal is far from the original seal in Mao Shrine...
"The original seal was made by a great onmyoji in ancient times. It is very stable, and every year the villagers will hold the Sanshe Festival to consolidate the magic power above with the power of the three Bodhisattvas.
"However, Master's seal is far from reaching that effect. He knows... this seal will be broken by 'it' one day, and people will surely die.
"So, before he passed away, the master entrusted us disciples with the task of getting rid of 'it'. I hope that we will practice diligently and one day be able to completely wipe out 'it'."
When he said this, he shook his head and sighed: "Oh... the day after I finished explaining this, the master passed away. I never expected... as soon as the old man died, the brothers began to compete for the status and relics he left behind. I didn't take Master's instructions to heart..."
"But aren't you different?" Feng Bujue followed the trend.
Tsukamoto nodded: "After that, I prepared for two months and picked a sunny day... I came to Chongjiu Elementary School." He paused, "That... it happened to be the summer six years ago ;Because the school had been abandoned for a long time, I got in easily.
"I remember very clearly... At that midsummer noon, the hairs all over my body stood on end as soon as I walked into this school. Obviously, even in the sealed state, 'it' can still exert influence on the surrounding space. "
"Wait a minute..." Ruoyu interrupted at this moment, "Since 'it' has become so powerful that 'even Nara mages in its heyday could not destroy it', then you at that time...didn't you come to strike a stone with an egg?"
"I didn't say that I came to destroy it six years ago." Tsukamoto replied, "I just wanted to confirm how strong 'it' is... so that I can know how far I can practice to fulfill my master's entrustment .”
"Oh~" Feng Bujue smiled easily when he heard this, "So you chose a 'relatively safe' time to come to Chongjiu Elementary School, and took it for granted that the 'it' in the sealed state could not take you away. How about it. Heh... As a result, that reconnaissance mission..." He said, tilting his head at Tsukamoto, "...it made you fall into the current situation."
"Ah..." Tsukamoto sighed again when he heard the words, "I don't care what kind of ending I will have..." He said solemnly, "It's been six years, my body is undoubtedly It has rotted, and my soul... has been trapped in this illusion of 'Yang', and it is difficult to enter reincarnation."
"Why does 'it' just trap you and not do anything else to you?" Feng Bujue asked this question in a subtle tone, as if to say, "Why haven't you been abused yet?"
"Before today, I didn't know why, but..." Tsukamoto's expression changed slightly, and he replied, "Just now, I understood." He looked at Brother Jue and Ruoyu respectively, "At this moment, you Those four companions in the illusion of 'Yin', under the guidance of a 'Shota Tsukamoto' pretended by 'it', gradually unlocked the seal..."
"Oh... that's it." Hearing this very urgent information, Brother Jue seemed calm as before. He didn't rush to ask how to return to the "Yin" illusion, but chose to find out all the information that could be ascertained first. , "So, 'it' kept your soul in order to pretend to be you?"
"Yes." Tsukamoto replied, "The soul of an onmyoji is different from that of ordinary people. If the soul of an ordinary person cannot enter the cycle of reincarnation, it will be lost, decayed, withered, and even demonized... But no matter how long the onmyoji dies, he will also die." It will not be "lost", our soul body can not only retain memory, but its appearance will not change much from when we were alive; I, on the 'yin' side, create a mirror image of the soul, and possess it... to deceive your companions."
"Hmm... so that's the case." Feng Bujue thought for a few seconds, straightened out his thoughts, and then said, "By the way, there is one thing I haven't figured out... There were seven people who survived that year; Six people, so... where did the squad leader Watanabe go?"
...
At the same time, in "Illusion of Yin".
Xiaotan and the four of them returned to the second floor under the leadership of "Tsukamoto" and entered the principal's office.
"Brother Jue! Are you alright?" Upon entering the door, Xiao Tan quickly walked to the entrance of the wine cellar and shouted towards the floor.
Yet... no one responded to him.
"What's going on?" An Yueqin also came over, and said nervously, "Did something happen to them?"
"Your companion... is no longer there." At this moment, Tsukamoto said suddenly.
"You mean..." Gui Xiao looked at Tsukamoto and said, "They already..." He didn't say the rest, but waited for Tsukamoto to continue.
Here, Gui Xiao is obviously careful. His "half sentence" is a good test. From a player's point of view, he can completely confirm the survival of two teammates through the team column. status, but the npc/monster doesn't know that; so if the guy in front of him who calls himself an onmyoji says categorically that the two have been killed by "it", he is obviously lying on purpose.
At this moment, Xiao Tan, Xiao Ling and An Yueqin also realized the intention of Gui Xiao's words, so they all kept silent and watched the changes...
"I only know that they haven't lost their souls for the time being, and they are no longer in that wine cellar." Tsukamoto's answer did not have any loopholes.
"Then where did they go?" Xiao Ling asked immediately.
"You ask me, who should I ask?" Tsukamoto replied, "I can only feel that their souls are still in this space, but where they are taken... Only 'it' knows."
"Then how should we save them?" Xiao Tan asked.
"It's not necessary." Tsukamoto replied coldly, "The six of you are already dead, there is nothing you can do to save it... As long as 'it' still exists, you, and all the ghosts here, don't even think about leaving this place. Space." He paused, "The only way to get rid of this fate is to eliminate 'it'."
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Tan suddenly said, "Eh? When did this drawer..."
It turned out that while Tsukamoto was speaking, Xiaotan's eyes caught some changes. When the players went downstairs, the big drawer inside the principal's office desk was still closed, but right now... the drawer has moved out a little, It seems to be unlocked.
"Be careful... it might be a trap." Gui Xiao became very cautious at the moment, for some reason... after he separated from Brother Jue and the others, Gui Xiao had a very strange intuition... This intuition repeatedly told him to stay on guard .
"Let me do it." At this time, Tsukamoto took two steps forward and said in a natural tone, "You must protect yourselves, at least five people are needed to complete the final 'magic circle'. "
While speaking, he had already opened the drawer.
The situation in the big drawer is the same as the two classrooms that the players explored before, with a total of four items.
Let's talk about it one by one...
First of all, it is still a "plot item that can bring out the script".
[Name: Tassel Belt]
[Type: Drama Related]
[Quality: Normal]
[Function: Unknown]
[Whether the script can be brought out: Yes]
[Remarks: Linen products, the buckle is made of sterling silver, the purple coloring and the length of the tassels are two points in the design.]
Here's another wearable gadget, like the others, of unknown purpose...
Next, the second
[Name: "It" spleen]
[Type: Drama Related]
[Quality: Normal]
[Function: It can be embedded in the torso of "it".]
[Whether the script can be brought out: No]
[Remarks: The pocket organ made of green jade reveals faint aura.]
Hmm... no explanation.
Looking at the third item, a piece of paper, it looks like an unfinished letter; the handwriting of the letter shows that the person who wrote the letter was very nervous at the time, or that his hands were shaking due to other physiological reasons; however, The content on the paper can still be distinguished, "Satou-kun, I don't know whether your insanity is temporary or permanent. If it is permanent, then this letter should be regarded as my confession to myself. But if, what God, you can regain your senses and read this letter. I just want to say sorry to you. All of this is caused by me. I am not a competent principal, and I cannot even be said to be a decent man; After my wife died, I tried to numb myself with alcohol, but I ended up with a bad habit of drinking. It is this bad habit that brought me to where I am today. Suzuki, Noguchi, you... I don’t know how many more people will die because of it , but I can't hold it anymore, please forgive me, forgive me for escaping responsibility by dying in the end, because, 'it'"
The information on the paper just stays here, and there is nothing after the word "it" (the letter is also written in Japanese, so it is "word" instead of "word"), and there is no punctuation or punctuation. There are no other traces.
Finally, the fourth item... I think you can guess [Warehouse Key].
...
A few minutes later, the players and Tsukamoto came to the corridor outside the principal's office.
Tsukamoto didn't take those two quest items, he handed them over to the players for safekeeping, but he held the key, because... he took the initiative to take on the task of opening the door.
As mentioned above, the door of the warehouse is also of the swing type. Tsukamoto inserted the key in and turned it, and the door opened.
Surprisingly, this room... has lights.
There was a light bulb hanging from the ceiling of the "warehouse", and this light bulb... emitted a red light.
The light enveloped the less than 30 square meter space in front of everyone's eyes, just like... the light of fire.
Contrary to the name "Warehouse", the room is empty. Not only is there no furniture and sundries, there is not even a window. Except for the light bulb above, all there was was the wall, and there wasn't even a light switch to be found on the wall.
However, there are still some abnormalities, for example... the six walls of this warehouse are all made up of scorched wooden boards, and there is also a formation drawn on the floor.
This formation is not the "magic formation" in Western mythology, but something with oriental characteristics.
On the whole, the magic circle is drawn with a red liquid, but whether it is blood, paint, or some other substance... It is hard to tell, because the magic circle seems to have been drawn for a long time, and the liquid It has long since dried up.
But see, in the middle of the magic circle, in a circular area the size of a washbasin, there are a bunch of ghost-like Japanese characters written. These characters are written in a spiral shape from the inside out, and the system has not translated; Outside, a perfectly circular circle was drawn, and the vertical and horizontal lines of the four gates and gossips were extended outside the circle, and in the areas divided by the lines, many spells were written vertically... Do not understand the text.
"What's the matter... on the ground?" After seeing those things, Gui Xiao was the first to ask.
"I drew this six years ago." Tsukamoto continued, "Oh... yes, you don't remember it anymore."
These two lines of dialogue seemed to trigger some fg... Immediately afterwards, Tsukamoto stepped into the door and began a story narration.
And this "Tsukamoto" story is a different version from the one Jue Ge and the others met...
"Six years ago, at the invitation of monitor Watanabe, you all returned to 'Chongjiu Elementary School' to attend the so-called class reunion.
"At that time, you naturally had no memory of the '520 tragedy' at all...
"Because after that incident, people from the government forcibly isolated you seven survivors for so-called 'psychological treatment'; a year later, when you returned to your parents, you had lost that paragraph. Memories. And after that, your family also lived far away under the arrangement of the government. In your impression... There is nothing abnormal in your childhood memories, but because the school is going to be closed, so everyone is in the second grade It's time to change schools.
"Later, you grew up separately. By the age of 20**, all of you have left home to live alone. Those around you who know your connection with that incident also thought that the nightmare The experience has already been revealed.
"No one expected...in one summer, when all of you 'happened' to be free, Watanabe, the monitor in your memory... sent you an invitation letter for the class reunion.
"Perhaps it was some kind of destiny, or 'it''s arrangement... the six of you reunited in the ruined site of Chongjiu Primary School on a cloudy day.
"That day... your squad leader didn't show up, because he had already been controlled by 'it', and the letter he sent was to attract the six of you..."(.)
