Galvins of the Tiga world

Chapter 201 The Hermit of the White Fox Forest

An hour later, in the only tavern in the town.

When Onoda rushed to the tavern from the hotel where he was staying, Dagu and Lina, who had changed into casual clothes, had been waiting here for a long time.

"Onoda?"

Reaching out his hand to greet Onoda, Dagu signaled that he was here.

"You finally came!"

Three steps and two steps walked to the opposite of Dagu and Lina.

While sitting down, Onoda couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

This weird performance, combined with the other party's previous call for help, gave Dagu an ominous premonition.

I have experienced so many things with Lu Xuan.

I can't be sure about other things in Dagu, but my intuition for dangerous things has reached an almost instinctive level.

"What happened here? Can it make you so scared?"

At any rate, Onoda can be regarded as a well-informed ace reporter.

Da Gu couldn't imagine what happened to make the other party fearful like this.

"Is it just the two of you?"

Without directly answering Dagu's question, Onoda didn't notice Lina's existence until he sat down.

Even though he had expected it, Onoda still couldn't hide his disappointment when he didn't see the director of foreign affairs from Galvin Company coming with him.

After the "Red Giant" incident back then, Onoda had more or less his own guesses about Lu Xuan's identity.

The reason why he asked the Victory Team for help this time, and asked Dagu to come over by name.

They just wanted to use Lu Xuan's power to settle the crisis that was happening here.

"It's just the two of us coming here for now."

"For specific follow-up support, you must first determine what happened here."

He saw through Onoda's little thought at a glance, but Dagu didn't expose him.

"So, first of all, you have to tell us what's going on here."

Hearing this, Onoda finally suppressed his inner anxiety and fear, and began to slowly explain his experience during this period.

The origin of everything has to be talked about when Xue Na left Amami Oshima.

After witnessing the existence of immortals, giant monsters, and red giants, Xue Na began to have a strong interest in myths and legends that happened around the world.

You know, Xue Na was originally very curious about stories like "urban legends".

When she began to delve into myths and legends from all over the world, she quickly discovered many real mythological prototypes through her own research and research.

The "White Fox Forest" at the foot of Mount Fuji is one of them.

According to the folk legends and myths collected by Xue Na, the name "White Fox Forest" can even be traced back to the Warring States Period in Japan.

At that time, the "White Fox Forest" was the territory of the demon fox.

Villagers living nearby even enshrine the shrine of the white fox, praying for a good harvest and peace in the name of "Inari God".

However, I don't know from which day, the white fox living in this forest suddenly disappeared, and was replaced by a ferocious and tyrannical evil ghost.

This evil spirit feeds on human flesh and drinks human blood, becoming stronger and stronger day by day.

As the master of this forest, the white fox never showed up until a powerful warrior came here.

This samurai possesses the philosophy of hating evil as much as hatred, and at the same time has the ability to slay demons and demons.

Under the entreaties of the nearby villagers, the samurai went deep into the forest alone, and started a big battle with the man-eating evil spirit.

The final outcome of that battle is unknown.

The only thing that has been recorded and handed down in writing is that after that warrior, this forest turned into an ogre forest.

The evil spirits that once lodged here disappeared.

But some plants in this forest have been demonized, possessing the instinct of hurting people and drinking blood like evil spirits.

All outsiders who break into the depths of the forest will be bewitched by those demonized plants, get close to them, and eventually become the blood food of monsters.

In order to be wary of outsiders, the villagers living in the surrounding area listed the "White Fox Forest" as a forbidden area.

With the passage of time, the stories and myths that have happened have gradually faded away, and the legends and taboos of "White Fox Forest" have gradually become a kind of local customs.

Every tourist who comes here, the first thing they know is these local customs.

Invisibly, there seems to be some unknown force that is constantly spreading and passing on these ancient taboos.

At first, Xue Na didn't realize the special nature of "White Fox Forest".

Because of similar legends, there are not one thousand but eight hundred in Japan.

It is simply unrealistic to use such a few clues to restore what happened that year.

However, due to the professionalism of the reporter, and his own curiosity about such rumors...

Xue Na came to the town of "White Fox Forest" without expecting much, and planned to use this as an opportunity to write a report on the Warring States Period.

It's just that before Xue Na started writing the article, she seemed to be targeted by some mysterious force.

First of all, on the first night of coming to this small town, Xue Na suddenly seemed to have changed her personality, and made a sleepless phone call with Onoda.

That kind of speech is full of emotional tone, not at all like the usual Xue Na.

It's a pity that Onoda didn't take the direct call to heart at the time.

As long as the other party had drunk some wine, and seriously told the other party not to go out at night, he didn't say anything else.

Then on the second night, when Xue Na called Onoda again, she said nervously that she saw something unclean.

After a series of questioning by Onoda, Xue Na finally revealed her discovery.

It turned out to investigate the rumors of the "White Fox Forest".

Based on the old newspapers more than ten years ago, Xue Na found the latest urban legend that happened in the "White Fox Forest" - the hermit.

The name of the hermit was "Keba Jiro", and he was less than eight years old when he disappeared.

In order to find their son, his parents not only made a fuss in the whole town, but even carried out a large-scale newspaper search.

Following this clue, Xue Na easily found Jiro Geba's parents.

But the problem also appeared here. When looking for Ge Ye's house, Xue Na once asked a little boy nearby for directions.

So, when Xue Na saw the family photo of Ge Ye's family, she was shocked to find that the little boy in it was the little boy who showed her the way when she came.

More than ten years have passed, not only has the little boy's appearance not changed at all, even the clothes on his body are exactly the same as before.
