Real Cthulhu Running Game

   Chapter 322 The trip to the ancestral hall (final)

   What Liu Xing did not expect was that Ichiro Matsui gave up on incense so easily.

   After all, in Liu Xing's eyes, the incense in the hands of Ichiro Matsui is the ecstasy incense, and this ecstasy incense is undoubtedly the magic weapon in the hands of Ichiro Matsui, the biggest support, and an important prop for this so-called ceremony.

   Originally, Liu Xing thought that Ichiro Matsui heard that Alice might be allergic to spices, so he would only choose to let Alice leave the ancestral hall alone, and then start with his group. Unexpectedly, Ichiro Matsui gave up using ecstasy.

   What is this operation?

   Liu Xing looked at Ichiro Matsui with some doubts, and couldn't help but start thinking, did he really think too much before?

Before Liu Xing could come up with a reason, Matsui Ichiro, who put the incense in his hand back in the small cabinet, began to greet Liu Xing and others to take their places again, while Matsui Ichiro was standing at the front with his back to Liu Xing. Star et al.

"Okay, now, friends, please get ready. I will start the ceremony now. Here I still recommend that you close your eyes and let go of your spirit. Just think about blessings to the newcomers in your heart. , of course, if you want to open your eyes, there is no problem, as long as you don't look around and twist your body greatly, please hold on for these five minutes." After Matsui Ichiro finished speaking, he turned towards him. The tablet in front of him bowed three times.

   Then, Ichiro Matsui started the ceremony in a language that Liu Xing could not understand, reciting the sacrificial text.

   However, Liu Xing can still hear it, the language used by Matsui Ichiro should be some kind of dialect in the island language system, because Liu Xing can occasionally understand a sentence or two of Matsui Ichiro's mouth.

The reason why Liu Xing was sure that Ichiro Matsui was reciting the sacrificial text was because Liu Xing understood the words like "the ancestors" and "blessing", so Liu Xing was sure that Ichiro Matsui was reciting the sacrificial text, and Not casting magic.

   This makes Liu Xing even more strange, doesn't Matsui Ichiro plan to do it today?

As time went on, Matsui Ichiro's chanting speed became faster and faster, and even Liu Xing could no longer hear what Matsui Ichiro was reciting, and Matsui Ichiro's tone was gradually improving, and Liu Xing could not even hear it. I don't admire Matsui Ichiro, he is really old and strong, and he still has such a good lung capacity for such a large age.

   However, why does this feel a little sleepy already?

   At this time, Liu Xing suddenly felt that his upper and lower eyelids had begun to fight, and the voice of Matsui Ichiro chanting the sacrificial text began to be a little illusory.

   was hit.

  Although Liu Xing has realized that the situation is not right, but now Liu Xing has no resistance at all, let alone hands-on, there is no way to even make a sound.

   Liu Xing realized that this time he encountered a plot to kill. After all, according to the formal process, it should be the will to judge now.

   Therefore, Liu Xing can only sigh helplessly in his heart, but Liu Xing is not very worried now, after all, as far as the current situation is concerned, this plot killing should not be real, and it will be fatal.

   Just when Liu Xing thought so, a subtle but obvious rustling sound suddenly sounded in his ears.

   This sound is exactly the same as what Liu Xing heard in the corner next door.

   This surprised Liu Xing. Could it be that the unknown creature next door came over? !

   But no matter how hard Liu Xing tried, he couldn't be sure where this strange sound came from, because this strange sound was so illusory that people couldn't tell its source.

Of course, Liu Xing can still speculate that this strange sound should come from underground. After all, the layout of the Fisherman's Village ancestral hall is clear at a glance. Basically, there is no dead angle, and there is no place that can be regarded as a hiding place. , so Liu Xing felt that the unknown creature that made this strange sound should not have been staying in the Fisherman's Village ancestral hall from the beginning.

Therefore, this unknown creature probably stayed in the houses with doors and windows closed by cement around the ancestral hall of the Fisherman's Village at first, and then came to the Fisherman's Village from the underground after hearing the sacrificial text recited by Ichiro Matsui. 's shrine.

  Thinking of this, Liu Xing wanted to see what this unknown creature looked like, but only then did Liu Xing realize that he had been forced to close his eyes, and his eyes were pitch black.

Liu Xing couldn't help frowning, the situation is a bit bad now, after all, it is impossible to determine the identity of this unknown creature, and secondly, I don't know the purpose of this unknown creature, and thirdly, Ichiro Matsui is even more uncertain about the summoning of these unknown creatures. Come to do what.

   But Liu Xing suddenly remembered that there was still an exception among the people present, and that was the panda pig.

   After all, the panda pig has earplugs, so it should have a certain immunity to the ritual recited by Matsui Ichiro, so Liu Xing feels that the current panda pig should be able to see the true face of the unknown creature.

   Just when Liu Xing thought so, he heard a short exclamation from behind him, and judging from this tone, it should be the sound of a panda pig.

Then, I heard KP Luguang gloat over the misfortune and say: "Hey, classmate panda pig, let you be smart and self-righteous, get earplugs to wear, the skin will be very comfortable now, see things you shouldn't see Well, originally, this plot kill was just a cutscene. Let’s advance the plot a little bit, so that you can be mentally prepared for the mythical creatures that may appear next. I didn’t expect that there was really one who wanted to make trouble. Then classmate Panda Pig, please do it once. Make a san check, because you have seen an indescribable mythical creature."

  Mythical creature? !

   Liu Xing raised his brows. . . Uh, because he temporarily lost control over his body, Liu Xing didn't know if his brows were raised or not.

What Liu Xing did not expect was that this unknown creature would turn out to be a mythical creature, and it seemed to be a remarkable mythical creature. After all, KP Green Light used the word "indescribable" to describe this mythical creature. .

   But fortunately, this plot kill, as Liu Xing thought, will not cause any substantial damage to the players. . . Wait, this looks like it might be getting worse.

According to the rule book of the Cthulhu run game, when the player's character card encounters a certain mythical creature for the first time, it will basically make a check that may lose more than 5 san points, which is It is said that the panda pig may fall into a temporary state of madness because of seeing this indescribable mythical creature.

   No matter what kind of temporary madness it is, Panda Pig will do some irrational behaviors because it loses too much san value at one time, and it is likely to affect its own group at that time.

   Therefore, Liu Xing can only pray that the Panda Pig's san test can pass smoothly.

   But having said that, Liu Xing felt that now he had guessed what the mythical creature Panda Pig saw.

At this time, KP Green Light continued: "OK, then let's start the san value check now, the player panda pig will lose 1d6 points of san points for a success, 1d20 points of san points for failure, and gain the same value as the loss of san points. knowledge of the Cthulhu mythology."

  1d20? !

   Liu Xing was shocked, he didn't expect that the penalty for failing the sanity check this time would be so high. If the panda pig's sanity check fails, there is a three-quarters chance of falling into a temporary insane state.

   This situation is not good.

Just when Liu Xing was nervous and wanted to determine the result of the panda pig's san score test, kp green light said with a smile: "For some special reasons, this time the panda pig's san score test will be a dark cast, hehe. ."

   Then, there was the sound of dice landing.

  Although Panda Pig’s san check was a dark cast, Liu Xing knew from the fact that there was no big movement behind him, Panda Pig should be lucky and didn’t fall into a temporary state of madness.

   At this moment, Matsui Ichiro's liturgy had come to an end, his tone became slow again, and the strange sound of "rustling" gradually disappeared.

   These five minutes really gave Liu Xing a feeling of living like a year.

   When Matsui Ichiro finished reciting the sacrificial text, he said, "Okay, this ceremony is over, thank you for your cooperation, now you can leave the ancestral hall and return to the villa to rest."

   Liu Xing noticed that Alice, who was beside him, was looking around the ancestral hall, as if she was looking for something. It seemed that Alice also heard that strange sound.

   But Liu Xing is more concerned about how the panda pig is now.

   Liu Xing looked back and saw that the panda pig was still kneeling on the futon with his eyes tightly closed. From the facial expression of the panda pig, it is not difficult to see that the panda pig is now in tension and fear.

   It seems that although the panda pig did not fall into a temporary state of madness, the panda pig was still frightened.

  So, Liu Xing gave Ishikawa Ling a look, and then Ishikawa Ling understood and went up to help the panda pig with Liu Xing.

   And Zhang Jingxu also stood up at the right time, and went up to talk to Matsui Ichiro, in order to attract the attention of Matsui Ichiro and Alice, so that Matsui Ichiro and Alice would not notice the strangeness of the panda pig.

   Then, Liu Xing and Ishikawa Ling helped the panda pig leave the ancestral hall, and Miyako Wutong also deliberately walked in front of the panda pig.

   As for Lu Tianya, he was the first to walk out of the ancestral hall and started talking to Matsui Yui outside the ancestral hall.

   And Liu Xing directly greeted Matsui Yui, and then returned to the villa with Ishikawa Ling with the panda pig.

   On the way, the panda pig finally recovered a little, but the panda pig's mental state is still a little bad, but at least it can act on its own.

   Back to the villa, Ishikawa Ling asked Liu Xing to take care of the panda pig first, and he went back to the room to get things.

   After a while, Ishikawa Ling came down with a glass of boiling water and a box of medicine.

   "This is a sedative drug, which should be able to work on the current symptoms of panda pigs." Ishikawa Ling explained.

   Liu Xing took the box of medicines, but no props information appeared, indicating that the box of medicines was just ordinary medicines.

In the Cthulhu running group game, those items that are not classified as props can actually still play their due role. Just like this box of medicine, it can play a calming role, but it cannot be restored. san value.

   But as far as the current situation is concerned, this box of medicine can be said to be a timely help.

After the panda pig took the medicine, the situation improved a lot, but most of the calming drugs have a hypnotic effect, so Liu Xing and Ishikawa Ling could only help the panda pig back to the room to rest for a while. Liu Xing already had a guess about the mythical creature that arrived, and Liu Xing was very confident in his guess, so Liu Xing was not in a hurry to get an accurate answer from Panda Pig.

   After returning the panda pig to the room, Zhang Jingxu and Lu Tianya also came back. As for Alice, Liu Xing guessed that she should go to Matsui Ichiro to talk about it.

   "How is the panda pig?" Zhang Jingxu said as soon as he entered the door.

Liu Xing pointed to the upstairs and said with a smile: "Panda Pig's condition is not bad, he has regained the ability to move on his own, but his spirit is still a little dazed, we just gave him sedative drugs, and now Panda Pig is in the room I believe that when he wakes up, his mental state should be able to return to normal."

Zhang Jingxu nodded, frowned and said, "What happened to the panda pig, just a few minutes later, the panda pig seems to have been greatly frightened, is there something wrong with the sacrificial text that Matsui Ichiro recited? "

   Liu Xing raised his brows, unexpectedly Zhang Jingxu didn't mention that strange voice.

   So, if I hadn't heard this strange sound in the next house from the beginning, I probably wouldn't have noticed this strange sound during the ceremony.

  So, Liu Xing still decided to say this thing, "Uh, didn't you all hear that strange sound, that kind of rustling sound?"

  Ishikawa Ling and the others shook their heads in unison, indicating that they did not hear what Liu Xing said.

"Uh, it seems that Panda Pig also noticed this sound, and then saw something that shouldn't be seen, but you should also have noticed that the buildings in the old site of Fisherman's Village, except for the ancestral hall, are basically sealed with cement. Living with doors and windows, it became a secret room, and before I entered the ancestral hall, I heard that strange sound from the house next door, I suspect that there are some hidden things in these houses." Liu Xing continued. .

Ishikawa Ling and others were shocked when they heard Liu Xing say this, because Ishikawa Ling and others also roughly guessed the true identity of the mythical creature, and according to Liu Xing, if there were so many mythical creatures , then you don't need to play with your group, because your group may not be able to fight even a mythical creature, let alone a group of mythical creatures.

  The most important thing is that these mythical creatures may also obey the orders of Ichiro Matsui.
