Chapter 327 Beware of Rabbits (Part 9) Deep in the Cave
"I heard that Lord Kanna is seriously ill and may not live past August..."
"Don't talk nonsense... Alas, it's rare to find a patriarch as kind and righteous as Lord Kanna. How could he get such a disease?"
"Let's do a good job in this year's fireworks festival, pray for Lord Kanna, and hope that Lord Rabbit God will bless him!"
The voices of pedestrians' discussions sounded at the right time, as clear as subtitles, and poured into Qi Si's mind.
It seemed that Qi Si had only fully loaded into the game until this moment and could finally speak.
He met Lingzi's thoughtful eyes and smiled, "Because I want to listen to Lingzi's story. It's so boring to always tell myself stories." He lowered his eyes again and said with some frustration, "Besides, the head of the family actually got such a disease. I always wonder if I told the story of the Rabbit God wrongly, which made Him unhappy and caused such punishment..." "Don't think too much, Xiaoqi, how could I tell it wrong?" The suspicion in Lingzi's eyes disappeared, leaving only concern and tolerance, "All of us children have to recite those two haikus since childhood, and no one will remember them wrong-"The Rabbit God descended to the northwest, wearing red and colorful clothes and sitting on the high platform, blessing and protecting generations; three families celebrated fireworks, and drove through the southeast street and buried deep in front of the cave. You, Kurokawa Akira and I all know it, how could we be wrong?" The girl murmured in a low voice with blurred eyes: "Two hundred years ago, the land under our feet was still very desolate, and it didn't even have a fixed name. At that time, our ancestors had not yet established their own business, had no livestock, no fertile land, and could only make a living by hunting. They lived a hard life, and they all hoped that a god would come to the world to guide them.
"The Rabbit God was moved by their sincerity, and during an autumn hunt, he descended on the northwest mountain and met with the heads of the three largest surnames in the area at that time, namely Kanna, Edo and Kurokawa, which were our ancestors. He promised the ancestors that as long as they were willing to worship him from generation to generation, he could fulfill everyone's wishes at the annual fireworks festival.
"But people have too many wishes. If every wish is to be fulfilled, it would be too troublesome for the Rabbit God. Therefore, the Rabbit God will only fulfill the wishes of the most pious families. The family whose children tell his story best is the most pious, and he will fulfill the wishes of that family.
"Like Xiao Qi, you are the son of the head of the Kanna family. Your wish must be to make the head of the Kanna recover, right? My last name is Edo. I have to ask my mother about my wish, but she always told me not to consider anything else. It is enough to wish for the wish I want to realize the most..."
Reiko's narration gradually became excited. Qi Si listened and memorized carefully, completing the world view background of the game "Escape from Rabbit God Town" bit by bit.
He first confirmed that the relationship between him and the head of the Kanna family was father and son. With the degree of love that the residents of Rabbit God Town had for the head of the Kanna family, he should also be able to enjoy the remaining shadow, at least not be hated and rejected.
Secondly, in addition to the Kanna family, there are two major families, Edo and Kurokawa, which are three-legged and check and balance each other. Reiko is the daughter of the Edo family. She seems to be very favored by the family and is allowed to have her own wishes.
Finally, the standard for the Rabbit God to judge whether a family is pious is whether the child can tell His story well. The moment Qi Si learned this information, the word "transmit" flashed in his mind.
The three major families passed down the story from generation to generation, and the children passed it on by word of mouth, so that the story of the Rabbit God was heard by more people. Even if it was a false legend, it would be believed by some people if it was told too many times.
Those people would also become believers of the Rabbit God and spread this belief, so that more and more people would know it...
Qi Si couldn't help but think of the persuasion of the strange game before entering the dungeon, which also said that after the name and deeds were known by others, it would be possible to gain faith.
The Rabbit God lived in Rabbit God Town, and he must be collecting faith. I don't know what he was doing.
Lingzi held Qi Si's hand and said happily: "Xiao Qi, you and I are both good at telling stories, and we will definitely be favored by the Rabbit God. After seven days, our wishes may all come true."
The girl's hands were cold and stiff, lacking elasticity, and obviously belonged to a dead person.
Qi Si held her hand and asked with a concerned look: "What wish is Lingzi going to make?"
"I can't tell you. It won't work if I tell you." Lingzi said mysteriously, "It's not a wish that is too difficult to fulfill. The Rabbit God won't care about wishes that are too excessive."
What is an excessive wish? Does it count as asking this so-called Rabbit God to transfer his authority?
Qi Si was thinking about it with interest. He was really curious about the mechanism of the Rabbit God fulfilling wishes. He didn't know how it was similar to the Sphinx.
"Xiao Qi, look! There are rabbit masks for sale over there!" Lingzi suddenly pointed to a small stall not far away and shouted in surprise.
Without waiting for Qi Si to respond, she let go of Qi Si's hand, lifted her skirt and trotted over, picked up a mask and put it on her face.
She turned her head to look at Qi Si, and the protruding rabbit lips and furry face pressed against her white neck, and instantly overlapped with the small corpse in the pit.
This rabbit mask is very strange, with hollow and deep eyes, reminiscent of the eye sockets of a skull; the corners of the mouth are unnaturally open in an arc, revealing dense fangs.
The uncanny valley effect is brought to the extreme, and it is hard to imagine that such a thing would be sought after.
The stall owner also wears a rabbit mask on his head. Because of his fat body, he looks more funny than scary at first glance.
He looked at Reiko and said with a smile: "Is it Reiko from the Edo family? Sure enough, she is the child who looks most like the Rabbit God."
Reiko stroked the mask on her face and responded with a smile: "Thank you, that would be great if that were the case!"
"Reiko, if you like it, this mask will be given to you." The stall owner said with a smile, looking like an adult who treats children kindly.
"Thank you so much!" Reiko bowed deeply before running back to Qisi.
The weird bunny mask on her face trembled slightly as she ran, and her smile became more sinister and exaggerated, as if she came to life in an instant.
Qisi silently looked at the scary rabbit beside him, and then heard Reiko's smiling voice coming from under the mask: "Everyone has been so polite to me recently, even though they said before that you are the child who is most like the Rabbit God!"
"Really?" Qisi chuckled, his eyes narrowed into a narrow line.
The temporary change of voice cannot be without reason. The possibility that the "Xiao Qi" he plays is suddenly overtaken by Reiko is very slim, and there may be some hidden secret behind it.
"Being like the Rabbit God" and "telling the story of the Rabbit God" are not the same concept. The former is closer to the god and is more likely to be selected to undertake some rituals such as the descent of the god.
A haiku from the story of the Rabbit God says:
[The Rabbit God descended to the northwest, clad in red and colorful, sitting on a high platform, blessing all generations
[Three families celebrate fireworks, driving through Southeast Street, in front of a deep cave]
In the CG at the beginning of the copy, Reiko dies, her body is dragged to the forest for burial, and her face changes into that of a rabbit, which is consistent with the sentence "Buried deep in the cave"...
Is "like the Rabbit God" really a good thing?
Zeiss walked over to the stall selling bunny masks.
When he was two steps away, before he could speak, the stall owner greeted him from afar: "Is this Shichiro, who is under Kanna-sama's knee? I heard that he is the most devout child to the Rabbit God. I will also give you a mask." "
He grabbed a mask and handed it to Zeiss.
Qiss: "..."
He looked directly into the stall owner's eyes behind the mask and said: "I just heard you tell Reiko that she is the child who is most like the Rabbit God, but it was clear that I was the one before." He lowered his eyes respectfully: "Fireworks Festival Right now, I want to ask what I can do to become more like Lord Rabbit God, and what else am I not doing well enough?”
The stall owner panicked and quickly apologized: "Qilang has done a good job. We are a small business and we always have to say a few words to please people, just like forming a good relationship...
"Sacrifice is a matter for the heads of the family. How can I possibly know the specific details? The Rabbit God Festival is about to take place at the fireworks festival. Generally, the choice will not be changed at the last minute. Maybe you can ask Kanna-sama."
"Really?" Zeiss asked.
The stall owner touched the sweat beads on his neck and said, "If you don't believe it, I can tell you that Kannashichiro is indeed the child who is most like the Rabbit God."
"Forget it." Qisi took the mask from the stall owner expressionlessly.
In any case, the stall owner still provided a piece of useful information, that is, a sacrifice to the Rabbit God will be carried out at the fireworks festival, which is suspected to have something to do with the children.
Moreover, the Rabbit God Festival is managed by three family heads, who have considerable power.
The item description of the mask is refreshed on the system interface.
[Name: Rabbit God Mask]
[Type: props (copies cannot be taken out)]
[Effect: Make you look more like the Rabbit God]
[Note: Don’t do anything, you are on your own! 】
As soon as Chiss got the camouflage props, he started planning how to impersonate the Rabbit God and steal his faith and divine power.
Of course, he didn't plan to put on the mask immediately. God knows what will happen after putting it on, whether it will cause consequences such as a curse.
He held the mask in his arms, turned back to Reiko, and asked softly: "Reiko, what kind of person do you think my father is?"
Lingzi came back from her joy and said puzzledly: "Xiaoqi, you are really weird today. How can I comment on your father?"
Qisi's expression remained unchanged, and he was persuasive: "But I just want to know Reiko's opinion. This is very important to me. My father always said that he was sick because he was not pious enough. Even I am no longer the child who is most like the Rabbit God. ...I think outsiders’ views may be more believable.”
As long as you know a person's personality, you can design an effective set of targeted words.
And Lu Ming had told Qisi about Reiko's character traits just before the start of the second week.
As expected, Reiko fell into the trap and thought about it and said: "How could you not be pious enough? You must have made a mistake somewhere... I think Uncle Kanna is a very good person and always smiles at me, but my mother doesn't seem to like it very much. he……"
She paused and rubbed her hair sadly: "Mom also asked me not to play with you, but I just don't let her know. I like to play with Xiaoqi the most!"
Qisi had a vague feeling that Reiko's mother might know something, and said calmly: "I think your mother misunderstood me because of some people's unfair evaluation. Maybe you can take me to see her, and maybe the misunderstanding can be resolved. ”
Reiko shook her head in embarrassment: "After my father passed away, my mother stopped allowing me to take other people home. Should I go back and persuade her?"
"No, please don't tell Lingzi that I said these things to you, so as not to embarrass her." Qisi said.
The "Archiveable" prompt appeared on the game panel of "Escape from Usagi Kamachi", and he silently recited the word "Archive" in his heart.
[Get the save point ② Reiko’s Rabbit God Mask]
[After Reiko obtained the Rabbit God Mask, you were worried and asked the stall owner and her some indirect questions, but failed to get any more information.
[It seems that there is a conspiracy growing in the dark, which may destroy everything peaceful and happy at any time, but no one knows what it will be...]
After reading the narration, Qi Si knew that something was wrong and there was indeed a conspiracy.
But he didn't know what it was.
However, the game is called "Escape from Rabbit God Town", so will the mission goal be to leave Rabbit God Town?
After all, Kanna Shichiro is also a child, and he was also given the Rabbit God Mask. He is likely to be affected by the conspiracy, and escaping in advance is the easiest choice.
At most, he can take the ignorant Reiko with him, and the two of them will escape from Rabbit God Town together.
Qi Si made up his mind and said to Lingzi: "Lingzi, let's walk along this street and take a look outside Rabbit God Town."
"Why?" Lingzi looked tangled, "We have never been out of Rabbit God Town since we were born. Children are not allowed to leave Rabbit God Town. My mother and your father will be unhappy if they know you have this idea."
"It's okay if we don't let them know." Qi Si sighed softly, "Besides, my original wish was to go out of Rabbit God Town to take a look, but I didn't expect my father to get sick at this critical moment... I really want to go out and take a look, just one look. Lingzi, are you willing to accompany me?"
Lingzi hesitated for a long time before nodding: "Okay, let's go out and take a look, and come back after one look."
Qis smiled: "Thank you Lingzi, let's go now."
There is a map of Rabbit God Town on the game panel, which is similar to the outline of the floor plan of Hope Middle School. Although the buildings and facilities are completely different, they can still be roughly matched.
Qis followed the pointer on the map and walked northwest along the street. Lingzi followed him nervously.
The houses on both sides were getting lower and lower, and the population was gradually becoming sparse. Only a few adults in black stood on the street, looking coldly at the two children walking slowly.
At the back, the adults put on rabbit masks and stood like statues. Their fluffy rabbit faces followed Qi Si's direction and turned with a dim gaze.
The sky and the earth were foggy at some point, blurring the faces and figures. The blessing ribbons on the heads fell down and accumulated at the feet. Each one was tattered, as if it had been beaten by wind and rain.
"Xiao Qi, I'm so scared." Lingzi said, "Let's go back."
"Don't be afraid, keep going." Qi Si turned around and grabbed her wrist, but felt a hand full of short rabbit hair, cold and prickly.
