Chapter 758: Chapter 462: Bringing the Treasure Home!_3

"Mainly, this time when you stayed here, it felt like this place was a home. Before, when you were here, it felt like a place where you could spend the night."

Lana Brown’s words made Sean Knight feel somewhat embarrassed. Actually, before this, he really treated this place as though it was his stronghold.

In his mind, before he got married, home had always been that single-story house in Xinjiang.

Now that Lana mentioned it, he really began considering treating this place as his home.

After all, he had grown up and needed a place of his own to call home.

In New York, although it was his base, Sean never thought of it as his home.

He had plans to marry Joanna, but even if they got married, he would have likely continued traveling all over the world.

As for Cheryl Suweton - well, their current relationship was quite good.

And it was unlikely that they would have other relationships. She was royalty, would she allow him to have multiple wives and concubines?

Forget about it.

After weighing all the options, it seemed that this place was the most likely to become his new home.

Even more importantly, the series of foolish actions by politicians in New York caused Sean to believe that it would be better to focus on this island.

That’s also why Sean subconsciously not only wanted to improve security on the island, but also protect everything beneath the surrounding sea.

With the things in his hands, he would never think of giving them up.

The second day, Charles Young flew Sean and his group to Tokyo. The three of them then took another flight from Tokyo to Kumamoto Airport.

As the international flights here only went to South Korea, Sean and his group had to transfer in Tokyo.

After leaving Kumamoto Airport, they split into groups.

Sean and Elijah Hastings had one group, but there was also a college girl to pick them up.)

A female college student.

"Hello, my name is Vicky Wilson, my Japanese name is Noki Meiko."

This was a tour guide and translator that Elijah had found online. She was a college student working part-time.

Vicky Wilson had a round, baby-face and a haircut that gave her an appearance reminiscent of women from the Republic of China era.

"Hello, my name is David Hastings and he is Oscar Knight. We are here for tourism." Elijah introduced themselves using false names. The girl explained in her self-introduction online that she had obtained Japanese citizenship.

They had to be cautious.

"Nice to meet you." The girl habitually bowed and then realized she made a mistake. She apologized, saying: "I’m sorry, I’ve been here too long and got used to it."

"No problem. So, you said you have been to Tanaka’s Family Temple. Can you tell us about it?"

"Of course." Vicky Wilson drove a small sedan and voluntarily opened the trunk to put Sean’s and Elijah’s bags in. After the two men got in the car, she started the engine and said:

"I have visited more than once. At first, I went with some others. The villagers in the village were all under Tanaka’s family. But later, when the Tanaka family had no more members, the villagers took over the land themselves.

However, the villagers said that the Tanaka family had been very good to them, so they kept the temple and even occasionally went there to pray for blessings.

Later, a relative of the Mikado came for a visit and discovered the temple.

At that time, the relative of the Mikado seemed to have something unspeakable and prayed for a blessing at the temple. Unexpectedly, it came true after he returned.

After the story spread, the temple became more famous. However, because it was located in a remote and inaccessible area, not many people went there regularly.

If it weren’t for the location, it probably would have become world-famous by now."

Vicky Wilson was very talkative, and Sean guessed that she must have guided many tourists who came here. Thus, she was familiar with these stories.

"I went there later on with my relatives. The good thing about that temple is that it’s very simple and not like some temples in our country where you have to pay to burn incense and worship Buddha. It’s all voluntary. It’s very simple to worship the god..."

"Which god is worshiped there?" Sean was curious. He had never really understood it before, and Lucas Tan Surlang hadn’t mentioned it, so he hadn’t asked in detail.

Now that he was posing as a tourist, he naturally wanted to know.

"It’s an ox-headed god - in our Chinese language, it’s similar to a Land Deity. However, our Chinese pantheon doesn’t have this deity."

"Does it have anything to do with the Bull Demon King?" asked Elijah eccentrically.

"No, this ox-headed god is said to be a wooden god. It’s a wooden sculpture of an ox that was dug up from the Tanaka family’s land. It’s said to be very supernatural, so they enshrined it."

"Haha." Sean had heard that the Shinto beliefs in Japan were chaotic, and that anything could become a god, but he didn’t expect it to be true.

That wasn’t a god, but more like an extraordinary creature, right?

However, with their unique culture, all Sean could do was just laugh.

Learning only superficial aspects of a culture and then pretending to know everything could easily become embarrassing.

"We don’t have enough time now, so I’ll take you to eat in a restaurant in a small town near Tanaka’s Family Temple. I know of a good restaurant there, the taste is good, and the price is not expensive."

As Vicky Wilson drove, she explained, "The staple food here is sushi and rice balls. However, if you’re not used to it, there are also noodles in the restaurant - since you guys don’t come here often, be aware that the prices here are a bit higher."

Sean and Elijah nodded. Indeed, they rarely traveled here, otherwise, they wouldn’t need a translator.

"By the way, I’m curious. Why did you both specifically want to come here and look for this temple? Although Tanaka’s Family Temple is somewhat famous here, it’s barely known in other cities in Kyushu and even less in China. Why would you come here?"

"I have a friend named Lucas Tan Surlang who said that the temple is quite famous." Sean thought that since there was no way to explain it properly, he might as well involve Lucas Tan Surlang:

"He told me that he is from this village and once lived in the temple. So, we just came to have a look."

"Tan? I remember that the elderly in the village did mention a Tan family. However, there is no one left now. Lucas Tan Surlang? I’m not sure..."

It seemed that Vicky Wilson indeed knew something about Tanaka’s Family Temple. Sean felt that, this time, they had found the right person.
