The world of strange stories.
Tzu Chi General Hospital.
Another meal of squirming flesh was arranged for the dog, because it has mastered [Scarlet Rot Poison] and can now show off crazily in the scene without taking drugs.
It's as sweet as sugar.
After feeding the dog, Kamiyagawa took the little old man to explore the map as usual.
I played the game for a long time today, and when it was over, the main exploration mission was finally completed——
[Regional mission: 80% of the exploration of Ciji General Hospital has been completed! (83/100)]
[Mission rewards are distributed, and you can get a tin statue of the shikigami! ]
Kamitani received the mission reward and played with the newly acquired tin figure with an outline mold in his hand:
"The exploration mission was given to the shikigami statue, which is pretty good. I just found a time to burn the dream agarwood and catch a dream-eating tapir and come back to deal with the ape dream in the paradise."
[All tasks in the Ciji Comprehensive Hospital area have been completed, and the divine weapon in an unknown place has been sensed and needs to be activated! ]
After completing the main plot of the fourth map, Kamiya no longer stayed in the strange world, and went to Gaotian Yuanli to hang up and return to reality.
He wanted to see where the newly opened fifth map was opened first.
real world.
Low-rent apartment.
When Kamiyagawa regained consciousness and woke up from bed, the first thing he did was to reopen "Kaitan Monogatari".
In the game interface, a 3D panoramic map appears again, as well as a brand new marker point.
This time the new marking point is not too far away, it is located within the Tokyo circle and directly adjacent to Tokyo.
Kamiya enlarged the map and saw the specific location——
Saiko, Fujikawaguchiko Town, Minami-Turi County, Yamanashi Prefecture.
"under the mount Fuji?"
And you can also see that the marked point seems to be surrounded by a large forest.
After careful identification, Kamiyakawa frowned: "Wait a minute, this seems to be..."
He recognized the location of the new map - Aokigahara Jukai.
Aokigahara, a natural forest farm with pleasant scenery at the foot of Mount Fuji.
This forest is very famous in Japan, but the reason why it is famous is not because of its beautiful scenery, but because every year some people choose to commit suicide here and end their lives.
According to official statistics, thousands of people have died here in the past 100 years.
Some people even call this place the "suicide resort" under Mount Fuji.
Because most people who come here to commit suicide choose to hang themselves, it is said that residents living nearby said that they often hear the sound of ropes rubbing together in the middle of the night. Some people even said that they have seen long-tongued ghosts with fangs wandering outside the forest, which is very strange. fear.
Every autumn, the Japan Metropolitan Police Department holds an annual corpse search operation in the Aokigahara Sea of Trees.
This operation has been carried out for more than 30 times. In the first few years, about 20 corpses were found every year.
Later, a Japanese "Complete Suicide Manual" specifically mentioned Aokigahara, making this suicide forest even more famous. By the late 1990s, the number of corpses collected from Aokigahara began to soar to more than 70 a year, and the situation became increasingly serious.
Moreover, these data are only the number of deaths where bodies were clearly found in the sea of trees.
The actual number of people who disappear near the Sea of Trees every year is staggering!
The tree species growing in this area of Aokigahara are single, and the landscapes in each place are very similar. In addition, the entire forest is dense and dense, blocking out the sky and the sun. There is no way to use the shadow of the trees, the sun or the stars to determine the direction.
In addition, the magnetite contained under the forest floor will prevent compasses and other tools from working properly.
People who enter the sea of trees have difficulty identifying their bearings even if they are well equipped.
Let those who enter the forest find no way out and get lost in the forest.
Even those who don't want to commit suicide, many explorers who simply come here to explore will die directly because they get lost.
Even the Metropolitan Police Department takes great care when collecting corpses every year. Each police officer will tie a rope around his waist, one after another, and the last one will tie the rope to the car outside the forest to prevent him from getting in or out.
"The marked point seems to be in the high mountains deep in Aokigahara..." Kamiyagawa held his mobile phone and repeatedly checked the map information, "If it weren't for this little old man, I really wouldn't dare to go to this damn place in reality. map."
Currently, Kamiya’s vacation balance is insufficient.
Hualing High School will start tomorrow.
Going to the depths of Aokigahara to light up the sacred tree would definitely take a lot of time. Kamiyagawa planned to pack up and leave now, opening the new map first.
He greeted Hayao Ohara, the hearse group that had been waiting at home.
He told me that he would use the car immediately.
The latter obediently notified Oishi Junma and Takayama Mayi who were staying in the Kaidan World, and asked them to drive over.
While waiting for the ghost car to drive downstairs, Kamiyagawa inspected his equipment.
"[The Banshee] was handed over to Jue yesterday. It will probably take a few more days before the ashes are laid... But it doesn't matter. I just went there to open a map."
After packing up, he inadvertently glanced at the desk next to the bed.
On a small wooden storage ornament at the corner of the table, there is a guardian hanging. The small red cloth bag has the words "Traffic Safety Guardian" embroidered with golden silk thread, and it is gently swaying with the wind blowing in from the window.
This royal guard was bought a long time ago.
At that time, Kamiyagawa was still a young man who had just come into contact with the world of ghost stories and was ignorant of worldly affairs. While conquering [Hua Ling Gui School], I was cursed by Hanako, the boss of Novice Village, causing me to hit spirits frequently.
After that, on the advice of Onitsuka, a young miko who was still a simple netizen at the time, she went to a nearby internet celebrity shrine to ask for a guardian to take home.
That shrine’s royal guard sells them very expensively.
But Kamiyagawa still gritted his teeth and spent huge sums of money to buy two of them.
One is "to bring luck and eliminate misfortune", and the other is "traffic safety".
As for why he wanted to buy traffic safety, Kamiya’s thoughts at the time were as follows——
"If you hit a spirit directly, if you encounter a wandering ghost who is obsessed with hitting the wall or pressing down on the bed, you can still use Tai Sword Technique and the incomplete thunder method to fight for it. But if you hit a spirit while taking a tram or bus, you will encounter What kind of supernatural traffic accident...it was really an unclear death."
It was very carefully thought out and very life-saving.
However, on the first day after bringing these two guards home, the red rope used to ward off misfortune was cut off during a ghost attack that night...
The next day, Kamiyagawa sent the "Exorcist Guard", which had been sacrificed but did not help at all, back to the [Kozanasho] of that shrine (the box where the old guard was recovered in the shrine) for recycling. .
As for the remaining "traffic safety guard", it is quite strong.
Later, Kamiyagawa hung the royal guard on a pendant in the corner of the desk, which is a prominent place in the home, and it hangs it until today.
After looking at Yushou twice and mentally recalling the events of his novice period, Kamiya Shin said that compared to the beginning, his growth was really visible to the naked eye.
Then, he withdrew his gaze from the corner of the table.
At this time, the wind blowing in from the window got a little stronger.
Snapped--
The swaying guard's red rope broke without warning and fell to the ground.
"Um?"
Kamiya looked down.
The small red bag lay face up on the wooden floor. The words "Traffic Safety" embroidered with golden silk thread were inexplicably dazzling.
"What's the meaning……"
Kamiyakawa bent down to pick up Yushou and observed the break of the red rope.
At this time, Xiao Yuan Zai Wei, who was beside him, tilted his head in his arms. He must have sensed something: "Boss, Brother Junma and the others are downstairs."
"Okay, let's go down."
Kamiya was thoughtful and put the broken traffic guard back on the table of the desk...
five minutes later.
The alley downstairs of a low-rent apartment.
Kamiyakawa got into the ghost car.
"Boss, please sit tight, I'm going to speed up."
After Huang Mao Dashi confirmed the destination of his trip, he planned to kick the accelerator and drive out as usual.
Kamiya, who was sitting in the second row, reached out and patted his seat: "Drive slower today, be careful. It doesn't matter if you take more time."
"What's wrong, boss?"
There were three intelligent members in the hearse group, and they all looked puzzled.
"I can't tell you. I always feel that something unexpected will happen during this trip to Aokigahara."
…
From our residence in Kamiyagawa we went to the foot of Mount Fuji in Yamanashi Prefecture.
Under normal circumstances with [Ghost Acceleration] turned on, it only takes ten minutes to get there.
But today I was stunned and drove for a full 40 minutes.
Because the boss had specifically ordered it, Huang Mao Dashi, who was driving, was extremely skilled, but he still abided by the traffic safety rules of "Better to wait for three minutes than to race for a second" and drove extremely carefully along the way.
When we arrived near Aokigahara, it was 1 o'clock in the afternoon.
Nothing happened.
"Dashi, Gaoshan, and Xiaoyuan, just stay outside and wait for me."
We found a place to park in a hidden area outside Aokigahara. After getting off the car, Kamiyagawa ordered the boys like this.
"No problem, boss!"
The members of the hearse group naturally had no objections to the boss's arrangement.
Then, Kamiyagawa took out the bronze bird pair and summoned the little old man.
"Abba! Abba!"
The little scout, whose whole body was surrounded by purple ghostly aura, had long understood that every time his master went to a new place to find the god, it was a great opportunity for him to show off, and he was in high spirits at this moment.
"Summon your clone and stay outside with the hearse group. Your body will enter the forest with me."
The outer body of the little old man, the mother body and the child individuals have a super sensing ability similar to that of a "swarm of insects". Leaving one outside the sea of trees can ensure that you can find your way out and you will never get lost in the forest. It is better than a compass. Much more reliable.
After arranging everything, Kamiyagawa held his mobile phone in one hand and twisted a 10-yen coin that contained the breath of thunder in the other hand. Together with the little old man, he headed deeper along the black volcanic rock path in the forest.
The trees in Aokigahara cover the sky and the sun.
After entering its depths, the afternoon sunlight was mostly blocked by lush vegetation.
The forest wind blew, shaking the branches and leaves of the high trees, making rustling sounds, like countless ghosts whimpering quietly somewhere in the deep and leafy forest...
…
Deep in Aokigahara.
The end of a winding black volcanic rock path.
The mountain forest trail disappears here, which means that the place ahead is already a rarely visited place.
Two young men, a man and a woman, are standing here.
Among them, the young man is named Tsuboda Teruyoshi, and the young woman is named Yoneyama Eri. Both of them look like they are in their early twenties.
Eri Yoneyama is a small internet celebrity who mainly publishes content related to outdoor adventures.
With the gimmick of "beautiful girls online adventure", the YouTube account has been operating for several years and has hundreds of thousands of fans.
"Huiji, take a picture here, take a picture of me and this sign."
At this time, Mishan was wearing sweatpants for easy movement, a jacket on his upper body, and a mobile phone holder fixed on the safety helmet on his head.
"Okay, okay. Stand still and don't move."
Pingtian was carrying a portable video camera and a backpack containing spare batteries and other professional outdoor exploration equipment.
He pointed the camera lens at Yoneyama Eri.
As for the warning sign next to Mishan, it says——
[Life is a precious thing received from parents. Please think quietly about your parents, brothers and sisters, lovers and children again. If a person is troubled, try talking to someone else first. ]
There are many similar signs to prevent suicide in Shuhai, some are put up by the government, and some are left by volunteers.
After simply taking a video of the group photo, Eri Yoneyama adjusted the phone hanging in front of her through her helmet:
"Huh? It's strange, the live broadcast picture hasn't been cut off yet. Logically speaking, if we go so deep into Aokigahara, we should have no signal, right? I remember that the last time we came to Aokigahara, there was no signal in the outer areas. ”
"Maybe the 4G mobile backpack I brought this time is indeed better." Pingtian stepped forward and checked Mishan's live broadcast. "Don't move, I will debug it again."
After spending a few more minutes debugging and checking the live broadcast and camera equipment, Tsuboda Teruyoshi took out several long ropes from the large mountaineering bag he carried.
And began to tie a section of the rope to the trunk of a big tree on the side of the road.
This is used to enter the depths of the sea of trees where there is no path ahead.
He and Yoneyama will continue to move deeper into Aokigahara.
The two of them have been to Aokigahara's Sea of Trees before, but they only explored the periphery and took videos.
But this time, at the request of fans, they are planning to come to BoDa.
Go deep into the depths of the forest where few people have gone, and give your family some exciting and hard work.
Seeing that Pingtian was seriously preparing for the exploration, Mishan started doing business in the live broadcast room:
"Moses Moses~ Good afternoon everyone, this is Eri-chan. You see, Huiyoshi and I are already in the deep forest of Aokigahara. If we go further, there will be no road."
"Also, please take a look at the sign here."
"There are a lot of signs in the sea of trees that remind you to cherish life. I also saw something like "If you commit suicide here, wild beasts will bite your body full of holes." "
"Life is indeed very precious, and everyone must live it well. If you have any unpleasant things, you can talk about it in my live broadcast room. I saw it, Eri-chan, and I will definitely listen carefully."
"Oh! Thanks to [Brother Shu] and [Jack] for the reward! Eri-chan loves you."
"Eri, I'm ready here." Tsuboda finished fixing the rope and neatly tied safety ropes around both of their waists.
Eri Yoneyama: "Then we will go deeper and show you the environment of the sea of trees - look, although it is about 10 o'clock in the morning, the light in the woods is a bit dim."
"It is said that if you go further in and wander around, you may see the bodies of the victims."
