Ming Dynasty and New Rome and Infinite Magic Machine

Chapter 1208 Suppression
With a huge amount of resentment, Taira Masakado's head descended on an empty body - occupying a person's body is the instinct of ghosts. In the past, such things were usually handled by mediums, and depending on the region, they were sometimes called "Chu Ma Xian".

The new automaton has completely surpassed the old-fashioned medium. It is judged to be a person, but without human consciousness, which is a perfect place for ghosts to reside.

As soon as the ghost landed, he found that he had been tricked.

The head burning with orchid flames opened its eyes. Only the eyes could move, and the part below the neck could not move at all.

“Ahhhhhhh!” He raged in classical Japanese, which did not require understanding of the 10th century. No one present could understand the despair in his voice.

Once you enter this hopeless cage, your future fate can be imagined.

[Ah Shangluo, you are amazing. This automaton is not wound up, right?]

"Tsk, tsk, the default is not to wind up."

[It's over. This old ghost probably doesn't even know what a clockwork is, let alone a clockwork.]

Shangluo smiled, took out a chair, and sat down on the immobile body.

The head on the shoulder struggled furiously, but he couldn't get away at all - this automaton was originally a cage for the soul, and it could only work by restraining the soul. It was a mobile prison. Once loaded, don't think about leaving easily.

Shangluo also took a chair and sat opposite him: "I know that you are a respectable man, let's make it short."

He took out his cell phone, typed in what he wanted to say, and then displayed it in front of Taira no Masakado - although neither of them could understand each other, they could communicate through writing.

This was Shangluo's first time dealing with a political creature - if dealing with a 10th-century ghost counts, then this was indeed politics.

After all, Shangluo encountered many enemies, but Xu Fu was the first enemy that he could not kill with a sword. This guy's whereabouts were unpredictable, and he could only draw his sword and look around in confusion. However, the martial arts world is not only about fighting and killing, but also about [pointing a gun at him so that he would not dare to fight and kill in the future].

Sometimes, this solution is more efficient. After all, both Shangluo and the imperial court actually intend to focus on governing this land. Shangluo does not want to cut it down once and then go back and cut it down again.

After all, given the lifespan of celestial beings, the future will always come. The karma you have created will not be repaid to future generations, but will always produce retribution in this life, because time will always be long enough for the karma to be settled.

Rather than waiting to deal with it a second time, it is better to resolve the conflict first. Some conflicts can be cut off by a sword, while others cannot be cut off by a sword.

Shangluo typed out Chinese characters. Seeing the Chinese characters, Taira no Masakado's ghost calmed down a bit. This was indeed something he could understand.

Then unplug the antenna and connect it to the core of the automatic machine, and communication can be completed with the help of software.

"Garro! Garro!"

After access, strange names came out.

"Huh?" Shangluo was stunned for a moment, "Is there something wrong with this translation software?"

[Wait, maybe it needs to be adjusted. Because we don't have a Japanese corpus, we are not prepared, so there may be some errors in the translation. Ah, I'll correct it. Jialuo means Tang. 】

"Why? Does that make any sense?"

[It seems to be like this - Kara is a country on the Korean Peninsula. This country has a great influence on Japan, so in Japanese, 'Kara' is used to represent foreign countries. Then in the era of Taira Masakado, the country that had the greatest influence on Japan was the Tang Dynasty, so the meaning of Kara was used to refer to the Tang Dynasty. I also corrected other similar content, such as the fried 'Kara', which is a frying method from China. Fried chicken coated with a specific batter can be called Kara chicken nuggets. Hmm, but what does tempura mean? Why does this language inexplicably have a lot of strange loanwords? The origin of this word is actually Latin? 】

"Normal." Shangluo replied, "Japanese is a language that was created by the forceful invasion of advanced civilizations, and its foundation is primitive. I suggest you put aside the grammatical concepts of Latin and think from the perspective of theme and meaning. Anyway, we mainly communicate in Chinese characters, so you should try to use Chinese characters as well."

[Okay. I'll compile it. I can program you on the spot. It's something only I can do. Okay, it's done. You can communicate now.] "Tang country! You are Tang people!"

The outrage became understandable.

"Well, very good, very good. How did you figure that out?"

"You are wearing Tang's futou."

"Oh" Shangluo glanced at his head. At this time, he was indeed wearing a black gauze hat, which was indeed a simplified version of a futou. After all, he had to wrap it up every morning when he went out, which was too troublesome to go out. Not to mention now, people hundreds of years ago were too lazy to deal with it, and it became a hat since the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.

"Since you can recognize him, it's easy. I just ask one question - do you know where Xu Fu is?"

"Xu Fu!!! Xu Fu!!!" When this name was mentioned, the flames in the ghost's eyes became more intense.

"Apollonia, do something."

[Understood. Push 5000 bits of phlogiston into it to make it regain the intelligence to understand the surrounding environment. Push completed.]

"Xu Fu!! Xu Fu!!!!" The voice remained unchanged.

[It seems that he really hates Xu Fu]

"It seems like communication is a bit difficult. Is there any way you can make things clear between me and him?"

[Received. Wait, I'm training Doudou. You can stand up and walk for a while. It will be done soon.]

"Huh, not bad." Shang Luo breathed a sigh of relief. So far, everything has been going well. Except for the fact that Taira Masakado's grievances were so great that it was difficult to communicate, everything was normal.

Difficulty in communication is not a big problem. Even Tianyi Guiren, who cannot speak at all, can communicate in various ways, not to mention a real ghost.

Shangluo stood up and walked to Phaethon who was not far away.

"How about it?"

Shangluo made an OK gesture.

"Ah, it's a bit like what I meant back then." Phaethon nodded.

"How old were you, back then?"

"Don't you know how much my life has changed now? This is a drastic change."

"That's true. If you in Rome have to deal with such problems frequently, it would be quite tiring."

"We usually don't have options other than force. Unlike here, at least they are willing to talk. If you can suppress the spirits here, then everything here will be over. Xu Fu's whereabouts can also be laid out in front of us - but why do I always feel weird? I always feel that Xu Fu's true purpose has not been exposed yet."

"No matter whether it is true or not. Once I dispel the fog here, once I find Xu Fu himself, once I kill him with my sword, everything will be clear."
