: The sixth year story 085, the curse of sadness

The sun's rays seemed extremely dim in this northern city. The miserable light could not even penetrate the clouds. Warm up this poor world a little bit.
Countless black scavenger birds croaked, and they flew into the city surrounded by silence. However, after a while, their croaking sound disappeared. It is as if there is a monster behind this city that devours sounds, no sound is allowed to disturb the tranquility of the city of the dead...
Xingli and others wandered outside the city gate for a long time... for a long time... they could only look at the water of the moat, a little bit, dyed completely red...
...
…………
………………
Leaving aside Xing Li and the others, he came to a small bush outside the city of the dead.
This small bush has now become a temporary shelter for a princess, lying in a pile of leaves, her entire face has been dyed black. If her breathing is not, it can be seen that she will leave this world soon.
in her black face. The two little rabbits jumped to her chest, opened the two ruby ​​eyes, dangling their ears, and looked at the princess. However, when a person comes to this small forest. These little creatures spread out as if they felt something terrible...
The devil...coming.
The demon holding a sleeping little angel slowly bent down and squatted down beside the princess. Those dark pupils looked at the semi-conscious princess, stretched out a hand tightly entangled in chains, and gently stroked her hair...
"is it you……?"
The unconscious princess felt something, finally recovered and slowly opened her eyes. It's a pity that her vision is blurred, and she can't see who the demon in front of her is... But even so, she still smiles...
"………………………………"
"I...Dreaming...Dreaming of Father Father..."
The princess's purple lips smiled. As if regretting her smile, the setting sun dyed the western sky a blood red.
"Father said... Certainly... someone... will... protect... I... call me... absolutely... don't... worry... heart..."
The devil's hand continued to stroke the princess's face. After that, this hand moved down, unbuttoned the princess's chest, and took off the clothes on her upper body.
The wound on the shoulder... completely turned black.
And the chest of the little princess was already occupied by darkness. This darkness has swallowed most of her body, and also along the neck, invaded her head, and penetrated her brain.
"Father, he... Father... he... he..."
The princess cried and wept. She is already mentally prepared, isn't she? My father actually only has about half a year of life. But now, half a year has passed. During this period of imprisonment, although she still often imagined that her father's health suddenly became better, reason also told her that this is impossible...
"Father finally... did he leave with a smile...?"
The demon stared into the princess's little chestnut eyes. After a moment of silence, finally, opened his mouth—
"Yes."
"He was lying on the bed, surrounded by your family, and left quietly."
Snapped……
Tears rolled down the haggard face and dripped on the grass below. The afterglow of the setting sun also began to slowly disappear, and it seemed that he couldn't bear to watch another life disappear. The entire sky has also changed from the last bright red to endless darkness...
The princess closed her eyes, but tears couldn't stop overflowing from her eyes. She was sobbing...biting her lower lip, sobbing slowly.
All the past started to linger in her brain that has been poisoned by poison, from childhood to adult, scenes of acting like a baby with her father, scenes of messing around with two brothers, scenes of playing with the children in the orphanage...
Sitting in the theater and watching the scenes of the princesses and knights...
I read about the prince and the girl breaking through the scenes that hinder each other's love...
And... I remembered.
She recalled the scene of a young girl who was still holding a little girl in her arms on a snowy night, and her eyes contained a boy who was colder than ice and snow...
"I... don't want to die..."
Tears constantly overflowed from these closed eyes.
"I... there are so many things left to do... so many things to say... I don't want to die... I really... don't want to... just like this... die..."
The devil looked at the princess, touched the hand on her cheek, and gently pressed it on her naked chest. Touching her heart. After thinking for a long time, a chain on the demon's right hand slowly lifted and entered his neck. A red nebula-shaped right eye also appeared at this moment.
"I, ask you again. Do you really want to die?"
"Yes... I... don't want to die..."
"In order to get your life, are you willing to pay any price."
Under the dark sky, there is no light in the small woods. The only thing that could see through everything was the blood-red eyes, looking at the little princess condescendingly.
"I would..."
She kept crying, kept sobbing...
"Just... don't let me die... I am willing to... pay any... price..."
"So, today, you will be cursed."
Nebula's right eye began to rotate slowly, and some cold voices also emanated from the devil's mouth
"I, curse you here. Walnut Doria Frihus. Starting today, your life journey will stop and no longer move forward. Your life will be connected to me, as long as the fire of my life Don’t extinguish, you will never extinguish."
"But for this, you have to pay a heavy price. You will become an immortal monster. And, you will be afraid of the sunlight you loved most. Starting today, you can only live in the dark. Once you enter In a bright world, you will be burned to ashes by the hot sun."
Nebula's right eye began to turn quickly. This is also symbolic. This curse will forever change the princess's life, and it will take effect.
The devil closed his eyes...opened again. Nebula's right eye has disappeared, returning to a dark and hollow pupil.
He slowly pulled up the clothes of the sleeping princess and buttoned her. Afterwards, he held the sleeping little girl in his arms and slowly...slowly... exited this small forest.
The dark night continues...
Does the deep darkness also symbolize something... Has it changed?

"what should we do?"
After a day of wandering and watching, he touched the back of his head anxiously, at a loss. You know, the idiots and the little bread trapped in the city of the dead who don't know what happened are all ignorant of fighting! In the current situation where there is no way to find any entrances or exits even for the invasion, how can we rescue the people inside? In addition, more importantly...
The poison of Princess Walnut...what to do?
Lillola held Duan's hand and didn't know what to do. She was just worried about the small bread inside, and tears fell from her eyes.
"By the way, where's mi pear?"
Xing Li was thinking about things, but just when she wanted to find someone to discuss it, she suddenly discovered that Mi Li, who had been acting with everyone during the day, did not know where she went. Instead, he raised his head, and there seemed to be a strange big bird flying in the dark night sky. After wandering for a while, he flew in one direction.
Deviate from being a soldier. She cares more about walnuts than bulldozers and small bulldozers. At the moment, the sword poison in her body has been completely burned out of the body by the flames, and only one sword wound remains. As long as it is slowly adjusted, it will return to its original state. Therefore, she rushed to the grove for the first time to check the walnut condition.
"?????!!!"
Entering the woods, the deviated eyes could not help but widen, but it happened! I saw that the walnut, which was dying and couldn't even move, was now leaning on the trunk, holding the dry food in the parcel left by everyone here. Just drink water and eat special food? !
"Princess...you?!"
"Woo? Me?"
Walnut bit a piece of bread in his mouth and turned his head. After biting off the bread, she drooled and swallowed. After that, she chuckled out: "Oh, I'm alive! I haven't eaten for a long time, I starved to death."
Others also entered the small woods, and looked at the walnuts that are now alive and well, surprised. You know, not long ago, this princess was on the verge of death! But now? Now, her face was again, and there was no trace of black air on her shoulder except for the wound that had begun to scar. Coupled with her greedy appearance now, it seems... almost more vitality than before? !
"Sister Princess! Are you okay!"
Little Liluo rushed to see Walnut so excited. She took Walnut by the hand, and Walnut also stuffed a piece of bread with jam into her mouth, touched the little girl's hair, and smiled: "What's the matter with me? I'm very good!"
"But princess, your poison..." Xing Li still couldn't believe it.
"Well..." Walnut touched his shoulder and said, "I don't know too. It just feels like a dream. Someone saved me, but how did that person save me? I'm not sure. Besides..."
Walnut frowned, pinched the clothes on her chest, and said, "Although it is a dream, the guy in my dream seems to be a big pervert. He just drags my clothes, but the problem is when I get dressed after the job. , I even buttoned my buttons wrong, which made me startled when I first woke up!"
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing how to explain this matter. But since the princess is successfully rescued, there is no need, right?
After adjusting in the grove for a night, everyone decided to transport the walnuts back to Fengchusha. After all, the current situation is not optimistic. God knows what happened in that city. So early in the morning, deviate. Sadly, Li Luo is responsible for escorting Walnut away. Xing Li continues to stay here looking for Mi Li and find ways to inquire about the idiot and Xiao Bao. But when he walked out of the shadowy grove, Walnut suddenly felt a little strange.
She found that the sun outside was so dazzling, she couldn't even open her eyes when she looked at the light. Although dark and deviated, she told her that the sunlight was not only not dazzling, but rather weak, but Walnut insisted not to go out of the woods and did not want to be exposed to the sunlight. There is no way, Li Qi and An can only find a fully enclosed carriage to let the walnuts enter. Although there was still some light shining through the curtains of the carriage, it was more or less tolerable.
Finally, this rescue operation is over. With walnuts, the girls began their return journey. And after Xingli wandered outside the city of the dead for a week, he still couldn't find a way to get in. Even her ribbons were connected to the high wall and couldn't be touched. No way, she just shook her head, sighed, and embarked on the return journey.

Two weeks later...
Three horses, running from a distance.
These three horses have obviously gone through a long journey and foamed from their mouths. But even so, the owner of the horses is still urging them, hoping that the sooner the better.
Finally, the leading horse could not support it and fell to the ground. The man on the horse fell off, causing the owners of the other two horses to scream. But this person did not worry about his injury at all, but immediately got up and ran to the gate of this city...
The door opened.
The door that was tightly closed a week ago is now fully opened.
What you can see is...
Blood stains.
Overwhelming blood.
Within this opened city gate, blood was everywhere. On the ground, on the wall, on the city gate, by the well, on the billboard in the bar. Any place that can be seen is covered with blood!
The other two also jumped off their horses and stood beside the bandaged teenager who led them, looking at everything inside in surprise. There are blood palm prints everywhere on the walls of the building, big and small, which is shocking to see. However, besides the blood in the city, there was another fact that surprised them...
People?
There are half a million civilians and soldiers in the city of the dead. Now, since there is so much blood here, there must be scary bodies corresponding to them. But what about the corpse? Why do you look around and see blood but no corpses? ? ?
The headed boy gritted his teeth and began to rush towards the castle built on the hillside. After entering the castle, they still didn't see anyone. In addition to the blood sprinkled on the walls and the ground, the castle has become an empty shell like the city!
