Chapter 167: Screen

Screens originated from the Celestial Empire, and Japan once sent Tang envoys to study in the Celestial Empire, so it is not uncommon for cultural items with the characteristics of the Celestial Empire to appear in Japan. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The pattern on the screen is a typical oriental painting method, the characters are slightly exaggerated, and the landscape is extremely freehand. Generally speaking, the screen is painted with flowers, birds, fish and insects, and the things painted on this screen seem to be a record of some major events.

Yasuchi said that this is probably the forgotten history preserved by Nagata Temple.

The screen has four sides, each with a different pattern, and Ann Yizhi looks at each one in order from right to left.

The first side depicts a man in a robe standing by a spring and chanting words and throwing granular objects, presumably dressed as a monk. The farmland around the spring is lush and fertile, and the surrounding villagers rejoice.

The pattern is exactly the same as in the nursery rhyme, but a creature at the top of the painting catches Ann's attention, it is reddish-brown, with huge membranous wings, six pairs of arthropod-fitted tentacles, and the part of its head that is supposed to have an oval shape with flocculent tentacles sticking out of it, looking slimy, and holding a large pair of scissors in its hands.

"What's that, does the monk's head have a line?"

An Yizhi, who was thinking about what that thing was, heard Lin Linglin say this, and turned his attention back to the monk, and he saw a string of X-shaped marks on the back of the monk's head.

"It looks like ...... Sutures? ā€

"Hundreds of years ago?"

The two of them were amazed, the era in which the painting took place should be at least 500 years ago, when there was a craniotomy in Japan?

Suddenly, Ann remembered where he had seen the topmost creature on the canvas.

"m. Go"

"What?"

"It's a terrible race, a horror novel from the craft of love, Murmur of the Night"

"Supernatural creatures?"

"No, they are a race of technology, you can understand them as aliens, these guys who look like big bugs can fly interstellar in the flesh, and the technology of humans is no different from primitive people in front of them"

In a game with a magical background, it is strange enough to see such a scientific race, even if it is a temporary copy, and I don't know what the main system responsible for generating copies is doing.

"The sutures on the top of the monk's head make sense, m. Ge's best skills are brain-related surgical techniques."

If that monk is actually a m. If Go's brain surgery was controlled, what did he throw into the spring......

The two continued to look down, and in the second pattern, countless huge hands stretched out from the spring, dragging the villagers into the water one by one, leaving the villagers who had escaped to run to a temple to take refuge.

That's Nagata Temple, right?

Before, the criminal police officer Mitsuya once said that if he met Lord Salas, he had to hide in Nagata Temple to save his life.

"Look at the people who are dragged into the water"

"Huh? How do those people ...... Converting? ā€

In the details, the person dragged into the water by the giant hand becomes gray, splits in half from it, and becomes the giant hand again.

The two of them looked at each other, and at the same time thought of the palm indentation that they had copied from the telephone pole, wasn't that a human shape!

Turning to the third picture, you can see a dragon flying out of Nagata Temple, which connects Nagata Temple and the spring, and the dragon's mouth is wide open, and the spring water is sucked up by it, and it is obvious that the area of the spring is much smaller than the previous two.

It's another pattern related to nursery rhymes.,It seems that the so-called stone dragon drinking water to restrain the flood is fake.,Restraining an indescribable thing is true.怂

Finally look at the fourth side.

In the painting, a monk and many villagers are chanting sutras by a spring, and the monk is not the same person as the previous monk in terms of dress, and there are no stitches on his head.

They threw a large number of dolls into the spring, and the giant hands at the bottom of the spring snatched the dolls.

"Sacrifice?"

Thinking of the four porcelain dolls found by the brave and invincible, there must be something to do with the two.

"Why do you want to sacrifice with dolls?"

"Instead of a living person, this way of sacrifice has existed since ancient times, and people in different places at different times have their own practices."

For example, steamed buns, according to legend, after Zhuge Liang captured Meng Shu seven times, when crossing the river, the dark clouds were thick, the wind was raging, and the waves were monstrous, and the army could not cross the river, Meng Huo said that this was the soul of the soldiers who died in the war all the year round, and it was necessary to sacrifice with 49 barbarian soldiers' heads.

Zhuge Liang felt that it was inappropriate after hearing this, so he made a plan to wrap the beef and mutton stuffing with white flour, make it into a head-shaped pot and steam it into the river, instead of the sacrifice, which was calm.

It is worth mentioning that the term steamed bread originally referred to stuffing, which is what we now call steamed buns, while today's steamed bread used to be called steamed cakes. Until the Song Dynasty, there was a saying of steamed buns, which was another name for steamed buns.

By the way, the steamed buns at that time were called cooking cakes, which was the thing sold by Wu Dalang......

Therefore, the Japanese who learned the culture from the Tang Dynasty still call the stuffed pasta called manju.

Let's get back to business.

When the two were watching around the screen, there was a sudden sound of chaotic footsteps behind them, and An Yizhi and Lin Linglin hurriedly put the flannel back on, pretending to be casual and looking at the Buddha statue inside the hall.

"Please stop, I'm going to be bothered by you trespassing like this"

It was the voice of the host lady Baizi, but this was not said to An Yizhi and the two of them, but to another wave of people.

They looked like they were from a TV station, carrying a series of equipment such as cameras, and at the front were the reporter Ma Lu, who had seen the reporter at the entrance of the police station...... Mustang deer.

"How's the trespass, or are you hiding something? Want to interfere with freedom of reporting? ā€œ

Journalism is really not a pleasant profession, many unscrupulous reporters wantonly distort facts to attract attention under the banner of freedom of reporting, although there are many journalists who fight for the truth, but more often are unscrupulous guys like Mustang Luzi for the sake of news.

No wonder netizens jokingly called journalists prostitutes.

"Oh, isn't this Mr. An Yizhi and Miss Ling Weiran?"

Mustang Luzi said the names of the two of them, which surprised the two of them, as if they had never revealed them.

Hakuko Yamamoto, who was dissuaded next to him, showed a look of surprise, probably thinking of them as a gang.

"Are you ......? I remember we didn't meet, how do you know our names"

An Yi pointed to look at the brave invincible who was following the group, and the latter shrugged his shoulders, indicating that he did not say it himself.

"A little bit of investigation, you're investigating the missing neighbor Protector Hazuki-sama, I personally admire this, you're much more active than those incompetent cops"

Dare to say this in front of the police, and the reporter's courage is also big enough, although the brave invincible and Lili Yuan Shangcao are just cameo policemen......

"Can you give us an interview? I've got the name in mind, it's called a 4-hour special program to find a girl whose whereabouts are unknown, and distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors."

Don't think they have any good intentions, An Yizhi saw the three words big news from the eyes of the wild horse deer, which is a typical thing to watch the excitement is not a big deal.

"You're not welcome here, let me out"

The reporter's self-talk made the host lady angry, and she said with a straight face.

"Oh yes, please don't be angry, Nagata Temple is naturally in our program, how about a free advertisement is still very good, I've heard Oh, the host lady is worried about the lack of incense money, the children's welfare home expenses are not small, if the name of Nagata Temple is loud, it will improve the financial aspect"

After talking to himself for a long time, the reporter turned his head to look at An Yi and pointed at the two of them: "Okay?" The last witnesses, Mr. Ann Yizhi and Miss Ling Weiran? ā€

"Enough! I don't want to listen to your nonsense anymore, let me get out of here, or I have the right to sue you for trespassing!" ā€

Hakuko Yamamoto, who has always been good-tempered, finally broke out, her forehead was bruised, and she was obviously angry with reporters.

"Is that really good? Miss hostess, the scandal between you and the former mayor has not completely passed, beware of setting off even more ugly topics again~"

This is a naked threat, and the host lady is as disgusting as if she had eaten a fly.

"For example, where did the missing Ishen go? The hostess, who is the former mayor's lover, must know the whereabouts, and what is the so-called Lord Salas? ā€

"That's, that's ......"

The hostess, who was originally furious, was suddenly frightened when she heard the words 'Lord Salas', and her body trembled slightly, the reason was naturally not anger but fear.

"What does Lord Salas have to do with the disappearance? How will Miss Shirako Yamamoto, the former mayor's lover, who knows all this, answer? ā€

"I—I'm not. I ......"

An Yizhi can't stand it, the reporter will definitely not be able to ask any key content here, she is not interested in the truth, she is interested in the news, and Yamamoto Hakuko, who does not want the matter to be expanded, will not say, so the top priority is to get rid of these reporters first.

He glanced at the grass on the leaving plain, and the latter understood, dragged the stunned brave invincible, and took out the police officer's testimony:

"Shut up, Miss Reporter invites all your people out now"

"What do you mean? Police obstruct journalists? This is typical public power violence! ā€

"If I'm not mistaken, landowners have the right to deny entry, and if you don't listen to dissuasion, it will be tantamount to trespassing, and you will go to jail, Miss Journalist."

"But, damn it!"

There is indeed a clause in the law that journalists have no problem taking material in public areas, but permission must be obtained to enter the landowner's place. This is also the case in Japan, if the evil US imperialism is located, it is legal for the owner of the house to shoot and deter.

"We'll leave, that, Mr. Ahn, about the interview......"

Ann replied with a middle finger pointing at her.

"Don't think that's it, I'm not going to give up for the sake of journalism"

After saying that, the wild horse deer left with a large number of reporters, no matter how reluctant he was, he couldn't stop the police from violating the law at the moment, standing on the moral high ground and accusing the police of being unfavorable, it was okay, but it would be stupid to take the initiative to put the handle in the hands of others.

When the last reporter disappeared at the door, Ann pointed to Yamamoto Hakuko and said:

"Miss host, I think you understand that there are some things that can't be hidden, and you also know that we and the reporter are not all the way, we just want to save Ye Yue"

Yamamoto Hakuko's face was blue and white for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and said to everyone:

"Please come with me, and I'll tell you the whole thing."
