Chapter 343 Beware of the Rabbit (Twenty-Five) He Has No Desire
"The adults in Usagi Kamachi are greedy and arrogant, and want to create a god under their control. No matter who that god is, they will be trapped here and fulfill their wishes.
"Your Excellency Rabbit God, or Kanna Shichiro, you should know that I am just a player passing through this world, and I have no intention of getting involved in this endless cycle of evil. It is not my intention to be used by them to deal with you."
Qiss lowered his eyes and sighed softly: "I already have the authority of the contract, and it is obviously not worth it to trap myself in Rabbit God Town for the insignificant divine power; unfortunately, it has come to this, and I cannot leave here...
"So I'm thinking, can we cooperate? I won't cooperate with the Rabbit God Festival they hold, so that you have a chance to escape from the shackles; you will save my life, so that I can escape from Rabbit God Town alive?"
A bright red contract scroll appeared in front of him, with lines of terms written on it in hot gold text.
The three incense sticks in the incense burner burned quietly, and the green smoke steamed upward, blurring the face of the statue in the shrine.
Qisi knelt down for a while, and didn't wait for a response, so he said no more.
The Rabbit God is no longer familiar with the world, and has experienced hundreds of years of experience; it is impossible for him to believe the promise of a strange player for the first time, not to mention that the player has many connections with the contract authority.
However, it still takes a long time. In five days, Qisi believes that there will be many opportunities to convince the Rabbit God and successfully sign a contract with him.
The black-haired young man lowered his eyes, took small steps back to the wooden couch, slowly lay down, and closed his eyes as innocent and harmless as a real child.
In the darkness, the words [can be paused, fast forwarded, and exited] appeared on the game panel.
Qisi silently recited the word "fast forward" in his heart, and the wind chimes in his ears rang rapidly and noisily. The sound of wind and the collision of wooden signs were noisy and chaotic. After a certain moment of roaring, they gradually died down, and the chirping of birds was gentle.
He opened his eyes, and a ray of morning light filtered in through the crack in the nailed window, casting a long and slanted light on his face. The oil lamps on the table have been extinguished, and the incense on the incense table has burned down to only three stubbles.
It's dawn.
"Lord God, today is August 2nd, it's time for you to cast lots."
The old voice of the waiter came from outside the door, with a gentle and patient tone: "Throw the lot three times, and you only need to hit one, which means you are similar to the Rabbit God and can accommodate his child."
The so-called throwing of lots is not like common sense. God makes the choice and decision, and then the wooden lot conveys His will to the people who believe in Him.
Judging from the waiter's words, it seems that the people of Rabbit God Town learned a ritual from somewhere, and they can judge whether a child's body can accommodate the power of Rabbit God by throwing wooden sticks.
Only by being stained with rabbit blood and blinding the sight of gods and ghosts can the ritual be invalidated, or the child no longer be in harmony with the rabbit god.
"Please wait a moment, I'll sort it out." Qisi turned off the recorder and politely responded to the waiter outside the door.
He took out the voice recorder that had run out of battery from the prop slot and put it under his pillow. Although the prop was no longer effective, he still planned to handle it carefully to avoid affecting the lot-throwing session.
At this point, he also wanted to understand something. The head of the Kanna family believed that "the dead rabbit no longer bleeds" because it was the revenge of the Rabbit God. In fact, it was just a misjudgment based on unilateral limited information.
The Rabbit God wished that Kanna Shichiro would not be selected, so he naturally had no position to stop the Kanna family master's small actions. It is estimated that the plan to use rabbit blood to destroy the ceremony was spread out on his own initiative.
Unfortunately, Lu Ming hoped that Shichiro Kanna would replace Reiko as the Lord of God. Reiko was chosen again and again, so he restarted the world line again and again until the results satisfied him.
One person and one god sent away generations of players, but the dungeon time always cycled between August 1st and August 7th.
Lu Ming and Rabbit God use Rabbit God Town and Hope Middle School as a chessboard to start a game. Rabbit God can use strange rumors to erode the NPC's thoughts, while Lu Ming can modify the underlying logic, such as making rabbits stop bleeding.
And now, players are involved in this game...
Qisi didn't take off his kimono before going to bed, but he casually shook out the wrinkled fabric and smoothed the wrinkles, thus finishing his outfit.
He picked up a few wooden boards with five precautions written on them and pushed the door open.
The wooden door couldn't be pushed open last night. When I pushed it again this morning, I found that it was unlocked and only slightly ajar.
The white-haired waiter was waiting outside the door with his eyes lowered. When he saw Qisi coming out, he said in a gentle voice: "Master God, after you throw the wooden sticks, burn incense, wash your body, and put on sacrificial clothes, you will be the real Master God." .
"I have informed several family heads of your request. Your friends can accompany you outside the Divine Residence, but they must leave after the sun sets."
"Thank you." Qisi handed the board to him and smiled politely, "Last night I saw this board on the desk, and it had a lot of things written on it, and I was a little confused.
"Why won't we provide food after August 3rd? What will be the use of those rabbit statues and blessing plaques I carved?"
[3. The Lord of God should keep his physical body clean. After August 3rd, he will no longer provide food but may drink water;
[5. There are carving knives and wooden blocks under the couch. The god should carve as many rabbit statues and prayer cards as possible. 】
The two rules written on the wooden board were vaguely written. Qisi pointed it out to the waiter as if he didn't understand, and asked humbly.
The waiter stared at the wooden board for a long time and sighed quietly: "This is a rule made many years ago. Maybe only the heads of the family know the reason.
"After the blessing plaques are carved, according to the rules, they should be distributed to the Lord God and your family members to pray for blessings and avoid disasters.
"As for the rabbit statue, it is just to help the god master know what the god in his heart looks like."
The selected children may not necessarily be able to seize the power of the Rabbit God and become new gods; there is a high probability that they will fail, be corroded by the Rabbit God's will, and turn into evil spirits who only want revenge.
The blood relatives who share the same blood are afraid of being disturbed, so they ask the children to carve blessing plaques in front of the Rabbit God in order to avoid the revenge of his ghost.
The head of the Kanna family didn't want his child to be chosen. He didn't necessarily feel sorry for his young son, but he just didn't want to take the risk of being haunted by evil spirits.
Qisi asked: "Why do you need to know what the God in your heart looks like? Aren't the Gods in our hearts all rabbit gods?"
The waiter sighed again: "If we can only carve out the Rabbit God, then the Lord God can only become the Rabbit God completely."
While talking, the two of them walked through the winding corridor one after another, walked past the worship hall where futons were neatly placed, and entered the main hall where the god's throne was placed.
All the irrelevant people were cleared away, and there were only a few people in the unattended temple. The head of the Kanna family, the head of the Kurokawa family, and an old priest stood in the center of the hall. It seemed that they had been waiting for a long time.
Under the vermilion roof, a bright red silk ribbon with copper coins strung on it hangs from a high place. The aroma of rosewood and cherry blossoms permeate the red silk, touching the soft coolness on the cheeks and soaking into the skin together.
There was no Rabbit God in the hall where the statue was supposed to be enshrined. There was only a wooden stick. The old priest walked to Qisi holding three wooden sticks and said in a hoarse and long tone: "Be still, get rid of distracting thoughts, and forget all desires."
The two heads of the family stared at Qisi intently, with a look of inquiry and nervousness on their faces. The head of the Kanna family was wrapped in thick robes, leaning on a cane, and coughing breathlessly.
Qisi lowered his eyes in agreement, took the wooden sign, and walked towards the sign tube step by step.
The sound of wind chimes seemed to be ringing in his ears again, and a gentle female voice and a serious male voice were whispering something. He couldn't hear a word clearly, and he didn't know who it was, but he became inexplicably irritable.
"Throw the lot -" the priest shouted at the top of his lungs.
The lottery tube was just three steps away. Ziss couldn't figure out why someone would miss the throw at this distance. Was it intentional, or was there some variable encountered during the throwing process?
He tentatively threw a wooden stick in his hand into the tube. With a "click" sound, the wooden stick fell into the tube.
"I won." There was a smile on the lips of the Kurokawa family leader, "It went really well. Shichiro is the master of God of this generation."
The head of the Kanna family was sullen and silent, and his haggard and sick appearance became even more haggard, as if he was about to die in the next second.
The priest shouted again: "Throw the lot——"
The female and male voices in his ears were louder, and their tone was urgent, as if they wanted to say something important, but Qiss still couldn't hear clearly, and he didn't understand what the two people were anxious about.
He made another throwing motion, and the second wooden pick fell into the barrel.
"Throwing lots——"
Qisi seemed to hear someone crying, but the sound dissipated in just a few seconds, as if coming from far away under the water, separated by water vapor and fog.
He threw the last wooden stick into the tube, and all the sounds disappeared in an instant. What he heard before was hard to find anymore, like a confused dream.
The head of the Kanna family finally had a smile on his face, and his beard trembled with excitement: "Shichiro, you are indeed the child who is most like the Rabbit God. No one has ever been able to hit three wooden sticks at once! You will become our new god. …”
Realizing that he had made a mistake, he covered his mouth and coughed, but his eyes were filled with joy.
If he only wins one or two lottery tickets, Kannashi Shichiro will be the same victim as the previous god masters. He will become a ghost after death and trouble Kanna's family day and night.
But things are different after winning three lots. Kannashi Shichiro may truly become a god and bring shelter and blessings to Kannaji.
The head of the Kurokawa family said to the waiter: "Please take the Lord God to rest first. Later, I will send you the sacrificial robes and wait for him to put them on."
The waiter responded, lowering his head and leading the way.
Qisi followed him calmly and walked out of the hall.
Behind him, the old priest said in a deliberately low voice: "Shichiro has no desires and is the most suitable material to become a god, but there is still one hurdle to pass.
“Let him have desires, have what he wants in his heart, and know what he really wants to be.
"Only in this way can we not be deceived by the Rabbit God and turn into a puppet controlled by the Rabbit God."
Adults need children to be like the Rabbit God, that is, to have no desires like the gods. Only in this way can the power of the Rabbit God be accommodated.
But adults also need children to be less like Rabbit God, not to become a replica or puppet of Rabbit God, but to become a new god who truly belongs to Rabbit God Town.
It makes those who have unfulfilled desires indifferent, and makes those who have no desires and needs greedy. Human beings have always been such a contradictory species, obsessed with flattening and rounding the weak into what they want.
Qiss pretended to be ignorant and said softly: "I don't think it is that difficult to throw lots. Why did the previous gods never hit three?"
The waiter looked sideways at him and asked, "Master God, did you see or hear anything when the lot was being thrown?"
Zeiss did not intend to tell the NPC about the existence of male and female voices. He shook his head and said, "No."
"That's because you have no desire."
The waiter smiled bitterly: "It is said that when you cast the first lot, you will see the most important thing you have lost; when you cast the second lot, you will see the most important thing you want to have; when you cast the third lot, you will see the most important thing you have lost. See your worst fears.
"If you have desires, your vision will be obscured by what you want, what you want, and what you fear, and you can't see the lottery box clearly, nor can you see yourself clearly. If you have no desires, you will have no fears, and your eyes will be clear, so you can easily put the wooden stick into the lottery box."
Qis said "Oh" and stopped talking.
He was led back to the God's Residence by the waiter, sat in front of the table, took out a block of wood from the wooden box and put it on the table, held the divine chisel in his right hand, and quietly began to carve the statue of the god.
The waiter left, and he said "hmm" in a low voice, never raising his eyelids to look at the people around him, indifferent like a god.
You cut and I cut, carving a god that belongs only to us;
You say and I say, entrusting our desires to the new god...
People without desires cannot carve new statues of gods, but can only imitate the rabbit statues in the shrines of the God's Residence, repeating the old routines, and carving soulless replicas.
But an "evil ghost" came unexpectedly last night and told Qi Si the solution to this deadlock -
Just carve it according to the Rabbit God wood carving that Lu Ming used as the entrance to the game "Escape from Rabbit God Town", which must not be the same as the Rabbit God statue in Rabbit God Town.
Everything cannot contain its own complete self, just like a glass jar that can contain a world, in the world it contains, it is impossible to contain exactly the same creation.
This is a cheating way to play, taking advantage of the bug of the game, and it seems to be the only solution.
The carving knife fell on the wood block again and again, shaving off pieces of wood chips of varying sizes, which fell like snowflakes and stained the back of Qi Si's hand, causing a slight itch.
Under the cherry tree not far from the window, the waiter sighed and talked to himself:
"Poor child, if he had no desire, he would never suffer. Why do those adults want him to suffer from desire?"
"To make a child without desire have desire, but not satisfy him, is it just to make him afraid, painful, and sad?"
The voice was drowned in the sound of the joyful wind chimes and the crackling of the wooden signs, broken and swaying like a dream.
Qi Si's hand paused slightly, leaving a shallow mark on the face of the statue.
The wood block had a complete outline in his hand, which looked like a human figure, but he had no idea what the final product would be.
Qi Si let his heart carve, and suddenly felt that he actually had desires, because people without desires could not stay in the world for a long time.
It's just that his desires were too far away, too light, and lost for too long, and had faded to almost transparent white under the erosion of time. He couldn't see or hear clearly, so he mistakenly thought that it didn't exist.
His desire should be related to the two voices he heard, but no matter how hard he thought, he could not figure out what the voices were saying, nor could he remember where he had heard them before.
The divine chisel was picked up again, and Qi Si continued to carve the block of wood in his hand.
He fell down according to inertia and instinct, calmly carving the face and body of the statue again and again.
The block of wood was shaved smaller and smaller, and finally only a thin slice was left. The original human figure disappeared, and there was no formed object.
Qi Si began to carve the blessing plaque with malice, and carved the strange ballad of "Bamboo Cage Eyes" on it, and a bright smile slowly rose at the corner of his lips.
He was not good at saving himself, nor was he good at exploring what he wanted, but he had always been very passionate about making people unlucky, and he was quite good at it.
Maybe his desire was to make people all over the world feel bad, who knows? (End of this chapter)
