Chapter 55 Torii Gate
Step by step.
Li Ang and Wang Congshan trampled on the bricks and tiles on the roof, running wildly.
Although the bone spurs shot by the Venus flytrap monster with its arm bones are amazing, it takes a certain amount of time to load and load. Moreover, they react slowly and move slowly.
The hit rate to the moving target is very low.
The two players rose and fell on the roof without stopping for a moment, making tactical evasion from time to time, avoiding dense bone spur shooting.
The area where Fujimura's home is located is relatively dense,
As the terrain in front gradually widens, the distance between the houses increases, and the player's own physical functions cannot jump over. The tactical boots with bounce function in Cardinal Wang Congshan's Rubik's Cube,
It is also because the structure is too complex and consumes too much spiritual power, so it cannot be taken out.
Fortunately, Li Ang also has supernatural powers to use.
Psychic creation is a first-level superpower and a secondary creation.
Li Ang pulled his hands and created a long and narrow wooden board from the void. He picked up the wooden board and threw it forward, and placed it on the roofs of the two houses to form a temporary passage.
The two of them stepped on the wooden board and continued to run wildly. They built the wooden bridge three times in a row, and finally ran to the open road with fewer monsters in the Venus Flytrap.
The village of Yuanke is built against the mountain with a slight slope and is in a right-angle trapezoidal shape.
There is a Y-shaped road in the middle that runs through the entire village.
The houses of Fujimura family and other residential houses are located in the downhill direction.
At both ends of the uphill Y-shaped road, the right end leads to the Hiratsuka family mansion, and the left end extends all the way around the other side of the mountain.
I don't know if the Venus Flytrace monster will only appear in lower terrain with the fog, or if there is some restriction on the Hiratsuka family's mansion,
They did not follow the upward path and continued to chase Li An and the other two,
Instead, he stayed in the downhill direction and wandered aimlessly.
Li Ang and Wang Congshan looked at each other and walked up the road. Along the way, they saw three rows of paper red lanterns hanging neatly on the eaves of the houses on both sides of the road.
These lanterns have been extinguished for a long time, and the candles inside are burned out.
There are patterns like cherry blossoms printed on the outside, and there are decorations hanging below.
Some lanterns also have black "fate engraving" printed on them, which look like decorations prepared for the festival.
Without the interference of monsters, the two of them quickly arrived at the fork intersection of the Y-shaped road.
The houses are sparse,
Standing at the intersection and looking to the right, you can see a large area of Ridao ancient house with lights. The house is surrounded by square walls and many trees are planted in the courtyard.
Standing at the intersection and looking to the left, you can vaguely see a torii at the end of the road.
Torii is an annex to Hijima Shrine. It represents the entrance to the divine realm in Shinto. It is used to distinguish the divine realm inhabited by the gods from the secular world in which humans live, and reminds visitors to pay attention to their words and deeds after stepping into Torii.
The appearance of Torii means that there is a shrine.
Li Ang and Wang Congshan looked at each other, walked a distance along the left side of the Y-shaped road, and soon saw the full picture of Torii.
This Torii is made of wood, with no paint on the surface. The two ends of the Kashiki on the pillar are raised. A thick and long bell rope is tied between the two pillars. A white "Z"-shaped imperial coins are hung on the bell rope.
"strangeness."
Li Ang's brow frowned slightly. Generally speaking, the connecting rope is a barrier that symbolizes the barrier that prevents disasters from passing through, and will be tied to Torii's "penetration" - that is, below the beam.
But the Torii in Yuanke Village tied the torii rope in the middle, which seemed inappropriate.
More like... a roadblock?
Moreover, the wood used in Torii looks blue-black in color, which is a bit like the wood found in the noodle-making secret room of the Fujimura mansion.
Li Ang took out the piece of wood from his backpack and compared it with Torii's pillars. He found that the textures of the two were very similar.
Wang Congshan carefully touched the beep rope tied in the middle of Torii and said in confusion: "Well... the system won't let us pass."
"Um?"
Li Ang raised his eyebrows and touched the rope like Wang Congshan, but he touched an air wall. The system prompt immediately jumped out of his eyes.
[The current area is sealed by a barrier and cannot be passed]
Li Ang used his strength to press it, and found that the air wall was still motionless, so he had to look behind Torii.
Behind Torii is a bluestone staircase built up along the hillside, with hundreds of levels.
The steps eventually lead to a wooden shrine building in red and black colors.
The gate of the shrine was closed, and the candlestick on the platform ahead had already been extinguished, dim and dark, giving people a strong premonition of ignorance.
The entire Torii is covered with an air wall.
The connecting rope tied in the middle of Torii is welded together and cannot be destroyed or dismantled.
Trying to bypass Torii and enter the shrine,
It will also hit the air wall.
A system prompt appears that [the current area is sealed by a barrier and cannot be passed].
"It seems that we need to continue to advance the script task and get the key props before we can pass here."
Li Ang took back his palm pressing the air wall and returned to the fork in the Y-shaped road with Wang Congshan.
The Venus flytrap monsters were still wandering the streets below, not chasing them.
However, with the light of the residential complex below, the two saw a black shadow walking out from the opposite side of the street, pushing open the gate of the Hiratsuka family's mansion, stepping straight into it, and disappearing from sight.
The black shadow covered the surface of the body with rich black hair (or maybe covered with fur), and the back was slightly curved, but it could be seen that it had a human outline.
Another monster? Or is it another living person?
Li Ang and Wang Congshan immediately chased after him and rushed to the door of the Hiratsuka family's mansion.
But I saw the door open and there was no trace of people inside.
"It shouldn't be an illusion."
Wang Congshan whispered: "When we came just now, the main entrance of the house was closed and has now been opened.
And there is a black mark on the door frames of the two doors."
"Um,"
Li Ang narrowed his eyes, nodded, and said thoughtfully: "I understand."
"Eh?" Wang Congshan was stunned when she heard this, "What do you understand?"
"This handprint is a hint,"
Li Ang pointed to the handprints left on the door frame and said, "It means to provoke us,
Ask us if we dare to go in and gesture, let us know what a black hand is."
"That means there will be a ghost."
Wang Congshan twitched his eyes and said, "Anyway, there is no place to go now. We should go in first and trigger the next stage of mission goals."
"etc."
Li Ang waved his hand and took out a brick from his schoolbag in Wang Congshan's puzzled gaze.
Wang Congshan's eyelids twitched and she complained: "Damn, when did you bring this thing? You've still carved it all the way, it's not too heavy."
"As a student, isn't it normal to stuff bricks into your schoolbag?"
Li Ang said casually, placing the tiles where they could just jamm the door to prevent them from suddenly closing after entering the mansion.
