Real Cthulhu Running Game

   Chapter 1306 Strange Kujing Village

As soon as the pistol came out, the smile of the boss in front of Liu Xing froze instantly, because he never thought that Liu Xing would take out a pistol at this time.

   "Don't get excited, my friend."

Liu Xing put the pistol on the table with a smile, and said seriously: "As you can see now, I accidentally fell into the field before I came here, and my wallet also fell into the field. A paddy field, so I don't have the cash to buy a second-hand safe right now, but I really want to try my luck, so I want to ask how much this pistol is worth."

   The boss looked at Liu Xing, and then at the pistol on the table. After a while, he said, "Young man, your pistol isn't fake, right?"

As soon as this statement came out, Liu Xing shrugged, removed the clip and took out a bullet, "This is the real thing, so let's take it apart and sell it, just how much is this bullet worth? Where's the money?"

   Looking at Liu Xing with a smile on his face, the boss swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "Brother, what's your background? Since you know that I even dare to take the safe of that kind of underground casino, how can you..."

Liu Xing wouldn't give the boss a chance to finish his words, not to mention that this was a threat to himself, so Liu Xing interrupted directly: "Just those turkeys and dogs in your mouth are nothing in my eyes, if I want to To deal with them, then I don't need to do it myself."

The confident Liu Xing left the boss speechless, he could only sigh and say: "Then brother, tell me, what are you going to do about this? As long as it's not too much, I'm still very willing to talk to you, brother. do this business."

"I believe that if I really want to sell this pistol to you, then you will definitely not dare to accept it, boss. After all, if such a gun of unknown origin is attached to a case, it will be troublesome, and it will be troublesome if there is no channel. It's not easy to get a shot in this situation, so my idea is very simple, I use this pistol as collateral to buy a few safes, if the contents of the safe are valuable, I will return the money to you on the spot, and if not I'll go back and give it back to you, anyway, I'll come here many times in the future."

Liu Xing put away his pistol and said with a smile: "I will introduce myself again, my name is Sawada Meteor, I am an employee of a construction company in Nagoya, because I received some inside information claiming that the government is planning to transform this area into an industrial area. , so I came to discuss the relocation agreement with your artisan village and several surrounding villages, so if you give me some help at this time, boss, I can give you more compensation in the relocation agreement later."

Hearing Liu Xing say this, the boss was relieved, "So that's the case, I thought you were planning to do a one-shot deal, bro; then, that's it, except for the most expensive safes, other You can choose any three safes."

As the boss said, he pulled down the shutter door, "This is the rule of my store, because some things in the safe may be too valuable, and some people with ulterior motives may target the buyer, so I always The door is closed the next time the box is opened."

   Liu Xing nodded and began to choose the safe he wanted.

   Fortunately, the boss did a good job in terms of service. The listing on each safe not only marked the price, but also prepared a brief introduction to explain the origin of these safes.

   Therefore, Liu Xing is going to find out if there are any boxes related to Kujing Village in these safes, although the possibility is not high, after all, a small village can use a safe?

   As a result, there is no safe in Kujing Village, but there are safes from Craftsman Village and Goldfish Village.

Both of these safes are small styles that can be used on desks, and Liu Xing can directly pick them up with one hand, so Liu Xing tried shaking the safes and found that there were things in both safes , and there are several metal objects judging from the sound.

As for the origin of these two safes, although the villages they come from are different, their experiences are similar. Both the original owner of the safe passed away due to sudden reasons, and the family found the safe while sorting out their belongings, and they all believed that the original owner It was impossible for anything valuable to be archived in this safe, so they sold the two safes directly to the boss who came to buy them.

   But what makes Liu Xing feel a little strange is that since the original owner of the safe has nothing of value, why would they buy a safe to go home and not tell their family about the existence of the safe?

Looking at Liu Xing, who was a little puzzled, the boss explained with a smile: "I know what you are wondering about Mr. Sawada, it stands to reason that ordinary people are unlikely to buy a safe, and even an ordinary person who looks normal at ordinary times is unlikely to buy a safe. People, his family suddenly found such a safe when they were packing their belongings, and they also felt that there might be good things in this safe, so it would never be so easy to sell the safe to me, and this is because these two safes have not been available for several years. The reason for the sale."

"But now every time I meet new customers, I will explain to them how these two safes came from. First of all, in several villages in our area, there are actually at least a dozen safes, because these safes are actually of poor quality. The product, so the salesman sold it to our villages at a very low price, and some villagers were happy to spend a little money to buy such a rather tall piggy bank, not to mention that there were many thieves at that time. Likes to stalk dogs in the country, so these safes are very normal here."

   Hearing what the boss said, Liu Xing realized that there must be something he wanted in these more than ten safes.

   But having said that, in Liu Xing's opinion, these two safes look quite normal, and they don't seem to be flawed in terms of workmanship.

"Brother, don't look at these safes on the surface, they are very normal, but they all have very serious loopholes, that is, the keys of these safes are all the same, and logically these keys should be different. Therefore, if these safes are sold normally, there may be problems, so they can only be sold to places like us; of course, those who bought the safes agreed to melt the keys together at the blacksmith next door for the sake of safety. A dagger, or a piece of iron."

   Dagger? Iron sheets?

Liu Xing raised his brows, and suddenly thought of a possibility, that is, if he wants to break the bark of the big tree, he may need the dagger made of the key of the safe, because this is also a Cthulhu run. A classic setting of group games, or in other words, many games will have such a setting-if you want to do something, you have to find something.

  So, this dagger is likely to be the key prop for this mod.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing pretended to inadvertently asked: "Oh, then this is really a gentleman's contract, in case someone leaves a key while others are not paying attention, or goes back and simply buys another safe, then he Wouldn't it be possible to open all the safes in these eight townships?"

"Of course, for a safe of this level, the key is actually not much different from an ordinary one, so just take a piece of ooze on the ground and you can leave the tooth marks on the key, and how many copies do you want to make? A key will do; but in our villages, there are more dogs than people, so it's not easy for you to steal from other villages."

The boss's inadvertent words made Liu Xing suddenly think of one thing, that is, when he was in Kujing Village, he seemed to be a dog and didn't see a single cat, but there were quite a few cats and dogs in Goldfish Village and Craftsman Village. .

   "Boss, when I came, I went to Kujing Village first, so I remember that there seems to be no dog in Kujing Village, right?"

   If you have any questions, ask them immediately. This is a good habit that Liu Xing has always cultivated.

"Oh, you said Kujing Village, it is indeed a very strange village, you must know that since the establishment of our Craftsman Village, the villagers around here have come to us to buy hoes, scythes, furniture accessories, etc. The neighbors are still willing to give them a friendly price, not to mention that the products produced in our Craftsman Village have never had quality problems, and as a result, the villagers of this Kujing Village rarely come to our Craftsman Village to buy things." The boss said a little depressed.

Liu Xing nodded, but he felt that there were more and more secrets in Kujing Village, but Liu Xing still couldn't understand why there were no cats and dogs in Kujing Village. You must know that in the villages of this era, cats and dogs are the most human beings. A good animal helper, such as Liu Xing's great grandfather, only has two people living in the countryside, but has three dogs to guard the home and a cat is responsible for catching mice. . . Although this cat often does not do its job properly, stealing bacon or fish from the house.

   So, why doesn't Kujing Village keep cats and dogs? There should be a reason for this.

But having said that, if dogs are mentioned in the Cthulhu run game, most players either think of the Hound of Tindalos, or the disgraceful Bubble Son, because it was taken by Miskatonic University. The watchdog got a solo kill.

   Could it be that there are also people in this village who are the illegitimate sons of Yoggsothoth?

   It seems that there is such a possibility.

If someone in Kujing Village is the illegitimate son of Yogsothoth, and everyone else in the village is a believer of Yogsothoth, then the so-called chemical pollution of that year is very likely the suicide of Yamashita Tatsumi and others. The purpose of directing and acting is to leave the original hometown and go to an unfamiliar place to cultivate the son of the eldest son.

  A lesson from the past, and a teacher from the past.

Because some bad things happened at Miskatonic University, Tatsumi Yamashita didn't keep a dog in Kujing Village for the sake of safety, and he didn't even keep a cat together. At the same time, he also tried to avoid contact with the outside world to ensure that The eldest son can grow up safely; and the reason why Yamashita Tatsumi is called "Tatsumi" may be the code name given to him by Yoggsothoth, because other humans who are responsible for taking care of their illegitimate children may be called "Shenyou" or "Xuhai" What.

   Of course, Liu Xing felt that this speculation highlighted one word - outrageous, because there are so many illegitimate children from Yoggsothoth?

Although Yoggsothoth has the most illegitimate children among the old rulers and outer gods, this is only official data, because in various gossip, another outer god, known as Shab Nicholas, the black goat of the forest, had thousands of illegitimate children than Yoggsothoth.

  Ahem, back to the point.

Liu Xing picked up the tags of the two safes and looked at them, and found that the original owners of the two safes were two ordinary villagers. It is very low, and it is only fifty dollars when converted into a US knife in the future.

   It seems that my last safe can justifiably buy an expensive one.

  Thinking of this, Liu Xing pointed to the two safes and said, "I don't take advantage of you, boss. I'll try these two safes first."

Hearing what Liu Xing said, the boss, who was still smirking at first, showed a sincere smile. After all, he didn't spend much money on the two safes, or he didn't spend a penny, because he was in When sending the condolence money, he said "smoothly", and the family generously gave him the safe.

   So now that Liu Xing can choose these two safes, it is a good thing for the boss.

   "Okay, then I'll go and prepare the box-opening tools for you now, brother. Go find the last box you want now."

  The boss went to the small room on the side to get the unpacking tools such as chainsaw bits, while Liu Xing focused his attention on the largest safe.

  This safe is a square box about one meter square, and it can only be unlocked with a password, and these are the two password locks.

   However, the price of this safe is not too expensive. It can only be regarded as medium-to-high among the safes in the entire store, because this safe is likely to be an empty box.

The most important thing in doing business is to be honest, not to mention that this is a business that gambles on luck. If the boss is not honest, the business will definitely not go on, so the boss's first sentence on the tag is "This safe may is empty".

The reason is very simple. After buying this safe, the boss arranged for a crane to make the crane shake slightly, so that he could easily hear how many things were in the safe, and what they were, so that he could prescribe the right medicine and carry out the operation. Pricing.

It turned out to be a little surprising, the boss didn't hear any sound coming from the safe, and there were only two possibilities - either the soundproofing of the safe was very good, or there was nothing in the safe, or there were only some that didn't emit anything. sound paper.
