Real Cthulhu Running Game

   Chapter 86 "Secret Book of Seven Chapters of Xuanjun"

When "Liu Xing" and his party entered the area of ​​Dilong Village, the kp snail said: "Okay, now the first stage of the promotion game is officially started. Players are not allowed to leave the ground before the sacrificial ceremony starts tomorrow. Dragon Village, but you can move freely in Dilong Village, and by the way, I can tell you now that there is a fragment of an ancient book hidden in Dilong Village. It is the player who failed to clear the level, as long as the player does not tear the card, this ancient book fragment will also become the player's belongings, which is an additional benefit of this promotion game, players please explore by yourself."

Liu Xing raised his brows. This kp snail didn't know whether to say he was helpful or sinister. On the bright side, kp snail provided a good additional information, but everyone knew that the benefits coexisted with the risks. The remnants of the ancient book hidden in Dilong Village must have been stored in some hidden places, not so easy to find, and maybe they have arranged agencies or guards. After all, this remnant of the ancient book, Liu Xing has already guessed. When it comes to its origin - the land of "Xuanjun Seven Chapters Secret Sutra", the gang test summons!

"Secret Book of Seven Chapters of Xuanjun" is a few Chinese works in the Cthulhu mythology system. The author of this book is Xuanjun, a philosopher in ancient China. It was written around the second century AD. It is said that the original book is called "The Earth" However, because its original scriptures have long since disappeared, only the faithful and detailed Chinese copy of Xuanjun Seven Chapters Secret Classics is known.

The oldest version of the "Secret Book of Xuanjun Seven Chapters" is divided into seven volumes, each of which is equivalent to a chapter, with different contents and different themes, but each volume contains one or more spells. In the text, there is a volume that records the spell for summoning the earth burrowing worm, called Digang Kao Zhaolu, which is "contacting the earth burrowing worm".

In Liu Xing's view, "Secret Book of Seven Chapters of Xuanjun" can be described as a summoning book. In addition to summoning earthworms, it can also summon ghouls, the Hound of Tindalos, Baiaki and other mythological creatures. The last volume can directly summon Nyarlathotep, but in addition to being able to use the "Secret Book of Xuanjun Seven Chapters" to control Bayaki, the summoning of other mythical creatures is uncontrollable, and for For these mythical creatures, the humans who summoned them are delicious food, except of course Nyarlathotep, because in his eyes humans are toys. . .

In addition to summoning various mythical creatures, there are also two volumes of the "Secret Book of Xuanjun Seven Chapters" that record special spells. One volume is the resurrection of the dead, but the resurrection is just zombies, and the other volume is to open the carda. The Gate of Si will take you directly to the heaven (fog), in short, you should not be able to come back.

   Therefore, the "Secret Book of Seven Chapters of Xuanjun" was called the death ceremony. . .

But what makes Liu Xing more puzzled is that the spell "contacting the burrowers" can only summon the burrowers, but cannot control the burrowers, so the sacrifice ceremony to suppress the burrowers should come from As with other magic books, then there may be another magic book or fragmentary pages in Dilong Village.

   However, Liu Xing suddenly thought that it was also possible that the expert who suppressed the earth-burrowing worms just dictated the sacrificial ceremony to the villagers at that time, so Liu Xing roughly guessed the ins and outs of the matter.

Hundreds of years ago, the residents of Dilong Village inadvertently obtained a scrap of a volume of "Secret Book of Seven Chapters of Xuanjun" that could summon the earth burrowing worm, and then killed it and summoned the earth burrowing worm. When a master of Taoism arrived, he took action to suppress the earth burrowing worm, and told the villagers of Dilong Village the sacrificial ceremony of suppressing the earth burrowing worm. As a result, the sacrificial ceremony of suppressing the earth burrowing worm has been lost. , leaving only the remnants of the "Secret Book of Xuanjun Seven Chapters".

As a result, the village chief of Dilong Village wanted to use the sacrificial ceremony to suppress the earth-burrowing worms as a selling point to make Dilong Village a folk attraction, but only found the fragment of the "Secret Book of Xuanjun Seven Chapters". , so the spell of summoning the burrowers was mistakenly regarded as a sacrificial ceremony to suppress the burrowers, thus loosening the seal of the burrowers, allowing the burrowers to gain a certain degree of freedom!

   At this moment, Liu Xing suddenly felt the existence of his body, and it seemed that he finally gained control of his body again.

They come, the security.

Since the quest to advance to the game has been triggered, the possibility of falling off is basically lost, so Liu Xing and his party did not plan to leave Dilong Village anymore, and followed the village chief to a somewhat dilapidated two-story building. In front of the house, and the door of the house is hidden.

"I'm sorry, fellow volunteers, this is the only place where people can live in the village, but don't worry, we have cleaned the interior of the house, prepared clean bedding, and prepared some ingredients. Volunteers Friends can open fire and cook by themselves." The village chief said to Liu Xing and his party with a smile.

Liu Xing nodded and said with a smile: "It's okay, our volunteers are here to help you, not to enjoy yourself. It's good to live in, and it's not too early. Village chief, you should go back to rest. ."

  The village chief nodded with a smile, then turned and left. As for Wang Wei, he naturally followed the village chief.

   Liu Xing and his party looked at each other, all shook their heads silently, and then pushed open the door of the house.

  As the village chief said, the house looks dilapidated on the outside, but the interior is clean and hygienic. It is also connected to electricity and natural gas. The kitchen is stocked with chicken, duck, fish, and seasonal vegetables.

   "kp, we are going to open the secret room time." Shi Ying said weakly.

After all, Liu Xing and his group have discussed it for a long time. The difficulty of advancing to the game this time is too high, and it can even be said to be a certain death. Therefore, now Liu Xing and his group are half-in-the-earth, so Shiying has given up struggling. .

"Damn it, it looks like we're going to die together this time, but it's fine if we're swallowed by the earth-burrowing worms, and we'll die faster. If we die in battle with those villagers, It will be a bit miserable to die." Mo Jin put down his backpack and said helplessly.

Liu Xing put his backpack on the table and said, "Speaking of which, the fragment of the ancient book in KP's mouth should be the one that summoned the earth-burrowing worm in the "Secret Book of Xuanjun Seven Chapters", and The sacrificial ceremony to suppress the burrowers should have been lost."
