After soaring for a long time, I finally reached the bottom of the horrible valley of suspended spirits he said.
The moment my feet landed, the sun came out, and the chill I felt just now disappeared, as if I suddenly walked into another space. Here, although the sunlight is still very weak, it has already shone into the valley. When the sun shone on me, I had sealed my self and turned into a human appearance. I took off my hat, and my black hair was straight to my shoulders. A pair of blood fangs became what humans call tiger fangs.
At this time, the bottom of the entire Suspended Spirit Valley was completely presented in front of me. In a word, it's so beautiful! What vampire would be here! This is simply a beautiful paradise!
There are tender green grasses everywhere, and there are some unknown red, purple, and white flowers in the grass. Many small piebald butterflies linger on the flowers. There is a gurgling stream beside the grass, the water is clear to the bottom, and it is clear that there are still a few small fish flowing happily in the water. On the taller trees next to it, there are a few that look a bit like parrots. Birds will make a few calls from time to time.
I walked slowly along the creek, just like a walk in the afternoon, breathing in the air that is not polluted by any modernization. The bursts of freshness hit my brain nerves. I can clearly know what it is at this time. This feeling is called comfort.
The sun became more and more dazzling, and the temperature got higher and higher. Especially the black cloak I was wearing had an extraordinary heat gathering effect, so I had to take it off and hold it in my arms. Although the skirt she was wearing was also black, sheer sleeves and short skirts were generally much cooler than wrapped tightly in a black cloak. And I just tossed my clothes while walking, and didn't even know that the stream in front of me reached the end, so I almost walked into the small lake.
"How is it possible that the water from the creek has been flowing here, but the water here does not flow away, how can it not be submerged!" I stood there for a while, and sighed in confusion.
Maybe there are some underground holes under this lake to let the water flow away! I can't help thinking again. Just when I stopped and stood by the lake, a beautiful little butterfly flew out of the forest. It wanted to stop on the small flower by the lake, but it was stuck on a few grass stems and woven. On the spider web, the spider immediately crawled over and ate the butterfly, but it was immediately licked into its mouth by a frog on the grass beside it, but before the frog closed its mouth, there was another snake. Swim over quietly, and swallowed the frog just about to enjoy the food. The small green snake kept swallowing. At this moment, a bald eagle flew in the sky and grabbed it with one claw.
"Natural ecology is really terrifying!" In just a few minutes, I saw for the first time the changeable and terrifying nature of nature. I put down the scene I saw just now, walked around this small lake, and walked forward along the flat ground under my feet. Turning a small bend, a room is faintly visible in front of it, which looks like a small church.
"Strange, how can there be a church in this kind of place!" The more I thought about it, the more strange it became, and I couldn't help but speed up. The scenery passing by had become some shadows and no longer had any attraction.
The church-like house got closer and closer to me, and I became more and more sure that it was a church. Its doors and windows or the circular arches of the roof, and the load-bearing piers are obviously of Roman style. It seems that its age must not be too young, let alone say it should be ten centuries!
But when I walked in front of it, I knew it was no longer a place to serve God. Because in the open space at its door, there is a big cross inserted, and on this cross there is a person hanging shockingly. His neck, hands, feet, and heart are deeply nailed by wooden nails. Got behind the cross. His face cannot be seen clearly, because 80% of his body has been decayed, but judging from his clothes and hat that have not completely decayed, he should be a clergyman, and still a clergyman. A cardinal. But I really don't think about it. In such a deep valley without a trace, what does this cardinal do here?
On the day of the scorching sun, the weather in August and September, the stench constantly emanating from the corpse, attracted countless flies and some unknown small bugs, buzzing around him endlessly. And there were countless unknown things lingering in my throat for a while, trying to break through the last line of defense, but I tried my best to suppress them, and quickly bypassed him and came to the front of the church. In front of the door.
Round doors, round windows, round roofs, all places that can make a round shape are round. It seems that people at that time really believed that the universe was round. I walked to the door and pushed it lightly. The door opened and the sunlight came in. Everything inside the door looked so old in the sun. The moss on the wall, the patina on the candlestick, the faded murals, and a few pieces The dusty angel statue.
On the whole, this church is very small and rudimentary. There are only two or three rows of wooden seats for prayer. On the stone platform in the center are a few white candles that have not been lit, and there is no one left with holy water. Any shiny holy grail, and a silver-gray cross chain, I think this should belong to the bishop I met just now! But when I picked it up and looked closely, I found that the name gina was engraved on the back of it, reminding me of the maid of Saffrott. Although the same name is common, I still couldn’t help but put it in. In his own pocket.
I didn't spend too much time in this clear hall, so I walked directly into a small door in the hall. Inside the door was a narrow passage. After walking for a few minutes, I came to the end of the passage A room of about ten square meters looks like a bedroom. But the bedding on the bed was rotten, and it turned into dust with a slight pull, making me choke for a long time. In this room, apart from the bed, there is only a writing desk at the head of the bed. The desk had only one drawer, but it was empty and there was nothing in it. So there was a thick book on the desk with the word Bible written in gold paint on the cover.
"It turned out to be his room!" I sighed and walked into another small door in the room. Inside the door is the same passage just now, leading to the same room, the layout is exactly the same, it goes around in a full circle, and there are five or six rooms, to be less. Just when I felt dizzy around me, I walked up to a staircase. I don't have to think about it. It must lead to the other buildings of the church.
But to my surprise, the room on the next floor was completely different from the ones downstairs. The decoration layout was very trendy, and it was clean everywhere, without a trace of dust, as if someone was cleaning it all the time. What is even more confusing is that when I look at everything in this room, I can't feel that I am in a church at all. By the way, this place shouldn't be the original church, but who has transformed it into this? Could it be that anyone else is living here now?
"The luxurious bed, the gorgeous chandeliers, the mirror table for dressing, the wine glasses on the bedside table, is this obviously a modern woman's room?" I thought to myself.
But I didn't have much interest in these, so I walked through it to the next room. The objects in this room really opened my eyes. All kinds of weapons are neatly hung on the four walls, including Western long swords, serrated wide-faced daggers, saber-toothed tiger-shaped gloves, bamboo-leaf flying knives, bat-shaped hidden weapons, etc., and there are some that I have never seen before. Sharp weapon can be said to have everything, but the rare and precious ones are unique and rare. All my feelings and feelings have been completely conquered by them. After all, this is the first time I have really seen the so-called boutique weapons arsenal.
After admiring it back and forth several times, I finally stopped in front of a knife without a scabbard. It was the most eye-catching one of all weapons. A Japanese sword with a blade length of about 80cm and a long and narrow tip design. The blade is not big but very narrow, about 2.5cm. The whole body is blood red, and the blade has a slight golden light.
"A rare knife shape!" I couldn't help but sigh and took it off. I kept playing with it in various positions in my hand. The strange thing was that no matter what position I held it, it felt very Comfortable. So the more I play, the more I like it, the more I play, the more reluctant to let go. In the end I decided, "It's mine."
Although it seemed a bit sorry for its collectors to do so, I walked around all the remaining rooms and found that they were just some storage rooms. In summary, there was no one here. It seems that even if their owner doesn't want them, at least they don't pay much attention to them, otherwise, how could they leave them and leave! That being the case, it’s not a big deal for me to choose one or two, so thinking about that, I went back to the arsenal, and finally picked a black gemstone ring that looked like an antique. In fact, I’ve already discovered What's special about it is that there is a special metal wire that is extremely tough and has a long distance in it. I put it on the ignorant finger of my right hand, which just covered the existence of the Ring of Wind.
Holding the blood knife, I went around all the rooms in this church again, and found nothing special. So in the end I decided to go back, but just walked to the door of the church and found that the sun was shining outside.
"How can I be so confused!" I scolded myself secretly. But in this case, no matter how much I blamed myself, I was confused. Looking at the blazing sun at nine o'clock in the sky, I thought a little bit, and I decided to stay in the clean room and wait for the night to come, of course! This is also the most feasible method currently.
"Guru Guru!" But before it got dark, my stomach screamed in protest, making me sit still, but in such a place where the only corpse has completely decomposed, call me Where can I find food?
"It would be fine if I were a fly!" When I was really hungry and uncomfortable, such a hopeless idea suddenly appeared in my mind. But then I think about it again, this fly is really much better than myself in many aspects. If I can become it, then maybe I will live happier. I was out of the church thinking this way. Of course, when I passed the bishop, I used to run, and to run fast. I don’t want to use my already empty stomach and use the last things to consume, so useless. Wasted.
I walked into the woods aside, trying to find some fruits that can satisfy my hunger, but in this season, this kind of valley, it doesn't seem to be what I wanted. The time passed by, the sun had moved to the front, but there was no shadow of the food.
"How can I be so hungry? I obviously ate a lot of the Devil's party the night before! If I was full when I became a vampire, even if I become a human, I won’t feel hungry anymore? That guy is too weak, so he can't hold it for two days!" I kept searching for it and wondered.
"Oh! Saffrot's blood will be delicious, just like my brother's!" I was hungry and I kept thinking about it in my mind, licking my lips slanderously. Now I finally understand why the little match girl would see the food in the fire, because at this time I am just like her!
I just stepped feebly through the dense forest, unknowingly, another world appeared in front of me.
This is definitely another world. There is no sunshine here. It is not so much that there is no sunshine. It is better to say that the sunshine is no longer a dazzling golden yellow, but a gloomy gray cyan. Everything is so dim.
Here, the air is no longer beautiful butterflies, but layers of dust, the ground is no longer green grass, and withered and rotten stems, not to mention the water source, it is simply a black bubble. The evil water ditch. There is a smell everywhere, that is stink.
When I found that I was about to walk to the cliff, I was about to turn around and leave. Suddenly I found a pile of bones not far away, like a hill, in the reflection of the gray-blue light, it is even more eye-catching.
"These shouldn't be the 50,000 people at that time!" Thinking of the story Saffrott told, he couldn't help sighing.
"How is it possible! The corpses of 50,000 people should have been buried or taken away by the reinforcements who came long ago. How could they be left like this? Besides, even if the pile of bones is like a hill, there are only a thousand people at most. And then, where are 50,000 people!" I immediately denied my idea. So I approached them and observed them carefully. Judging from the hair that did not rot, they were male and female. Judging from the size of their skulls, they were large and small, and they were too small, as if they were babies. .
"How did they die?" I suddenly thought. Because there is no trace of scars from the bones, and the most puzzling thing is that each bone is perfectly intact, and there is no distortion at all. It does not look like a beast did it, nor does it look like it was killed in a fight. . So how did they die? I thought about it for a long time and still haven't found any reasonable explanation.
When I walked around behind the pile of bones, I found a hole in the cliff there, and I couldn't see anything in the dark.
"Go in and see!" This was what I thought of for the first time, but before I took half a step, I immediately realized the danger of this cave, so I wandered around the entrance of the cave.
"Go in? Don't go in?" Of course I can't hold a flower to count the petals like those little girls who are annoyed by their lovers, but I finally decided to go in and wipe them all. Of course I won't take this human Take risks physically.
I went deeper and deeper, and of course the surroundings became darker and darker, but for my current eyes, everything in the darkness is no longer dark, but exudes a kind of wonderful charm, which keeps attracting me to move forward. After walking about ten or twenty meters, I actually smelled a faint smell of blood.
"Didn't I say it! I don't want to see you again, what are you doing here?" When I was about to approach the source of flavor, a very low and hoarse male voice suddenly said. The other party obviously regarded me as another person, someone he loved and hated. Faced with such a question, I didn't know how to answer for a while, so I just stood still and didn't say a word.
"Let's go! I won't see you, no matter how long our lives are, I don't think we will see each other again!" He didn't answer when he saw me, but still very determined to drive me away.
"By the way, in the future, don't throw the food scraps you have eaten at my door. Even if you do, I won't be able to go out. Now I don't have such a strong need for blood. For so many years Come, I have already let go of my sordid identity. God said that I am no longer a vampire, but a devout believer. Temptation and training are enough for me!" He continued. , And I just thought it was funny to continue listening.
"Let's go! Since you don't want to be God's people like me, and I can't kill you, you and I can't commit each other, you go! I want to continue praying!" He finally said.
"You don't even dare to see me, do you still dare to say that you are already a devout believer who doesn't need to be disciplined?" I asked coldly.
"You are not Xia Li, who are you?" he asked in surprise. It turns out he thought of me as that woman named Chariprio! It seems that he should be the one who loves her, so he indulges her to help her commit the unforgivable crime.
"You don't care about who I am, I just think it's ridiculous, a vampire actually said that he was a disciple of that guy, huh!" I sneered.
"Of course I am a believer of God, but I have sat for five thousand years without sucking blood!" He argued loudly.
"Huh! A vampire didn't become a vampire because of vampire, but because he became a vampire. I didn't expect you to have lived for five thousand years without even understanding this!" I laughed.
"You!" he shouted angrily.
"Also, his people won't be on the ground! If you let go of the last drop of unclean blood, or go outside to take a good sun, maybe he will consider whether to accept you as a citizen. "I walked out of the cave with instructions.
