87. My nightmares you don't understand
The cave is dark and damp, there is no sunlight all year round, and some corners are overgrown with weeds, but they do not bring any life, but look even more eerie.
In such a cave, there is a huge stone, which almost blocks the way to the depths of the cave, and because the stone is too large, it can be seen that the cave has been artificially widened a lot, so it can barely be filled.
The pitch-black sword on the boulder was right at the very top, and it was not easy to reach it.
Before, Arili had just recovered her strength, and her climbing ability was also good, so it was not too difficult to climb up.
Because of her previous precautions, Eryl jumped down again, and now she needed to go up again.
The current that had blocked her before did not appear again, and Erili touched Excalibur smoothly, which was the first time in many years that it had touched it.
There was some indescribable excitement in Areli, as if something that should have belonged to her had finally arrived.
At the wrong glance, Irelli was shocked.
The cave was dark and damp, which would have made people feel a little weird, but the moment Errie's hand touched the Excalibur, the strange black smoke instantly became excited, gathered quickly, and gradually formed a human form. And as time passed, the human form became more and more distinct, and finally, it became indistinguishable from a human.
Handsome face, different from the blonde hair and blue eyes of Westerners, with a high nose bridge, he has long hair as smooth as a black waterfall, scattered on his body, with a hint of hazy beauty, the clothes on his body are half-broken, and the fair skin of his upper body is exposed like this, a little dazzling and can't bear to look away, although so, the overall color difference of this person is gray, the most obvious is the black chains wrapped around this person's body, the chains from the four sides of the cave to this person's arms, many chains are piled up around the waist, and the whole person is locked tightly.
Eerie beauty, evil temptation.
The person in front of you seems to be an abyss, and there are endless treasures hidden under the abyss, as long as you enter, everything will belong to you, but once you enter, there is no possibility of leaving.
No one can resist the temptation, the temptation of wealth and beauty.
This is the most poisonous poison, giving the best and asking for almost nothing in return.
The hand was uncontrollably stretched out to him, and Erili was indeed seduced, since ten years ago.
However, before Areli's hand could reach the man, there was a sudden commotion, and a group of people suddenly broke into the cave from outside the cave, and suddenly the smoke and dust filled the air.
Irelli couldn't help coughing, but her hand gripped the Excalibur tighter, refusing to give it a chance.
"Errieli, you don't come down quickly. Full of anger was hidden in the voice, which was very familiar, but the tone was somewhat unfamiliar.
Uncle Burton really rarely talks to Arielly like that.
"Uncle Burton. ”
Erilly looked at Burton, who turned pale and finally recovered from the fainting, and got the news that Erilly had sneaked up the mountain.
Burton was already old, and there were too many pains and secrets in his heart, and he had to protect the whole village, and he couldn't let his children be harmed, and an old man had borne too much and was exhausted.
"Uncle Burton. ”
Areli lowered her eyes, like a haggard flower beaten by frost, with some grievances and a hint of hateful innocence.
"Erilei come down, you can't touch this sword. ”
Erilly looked at Burton, even though she felt sorry for Burton, she didn't listen to Burton, didn't obediently come down, and didn't let go of the hand holding the Excalibur.
Eryl silently looked away and landed on the man, as if no matter how noisy and chaotic it was, this man had been sleeping with his eyes closed, though he was trapped in chains, though he was ......
Irelli envied his quiet beauty, his beauty.
"Erylly, he's a monster, you can't touch him. ”
Monster?
Arelli looked at Burton, whose eyes were full of horror, and his gaze was falling on the man, while the others were not looking at her, mostly just herself.
Uncle Burton could see him, but others didn't.
With some force in her hand, the sword that no one could pull out shook a few times, and at the same time, the boulder began to shake, and the man's casualness began to tighten, and the man's expression began to become painful.
Ireli was a little shocked, if she was just shaken and not liberated, would it increase his pain?
Areli tried to touch the man, but all she could do was air.
The eyes of others looking at Arili are getting more and more weird, obviously when he was a very cute child, why did he suddenly become nervous now.
In fact, what is the current situation?
Since eight years ago, the village has been less crowded and young children have been told by their parents not to run around, and everything has changed.
As long as anyone cares, they will find that the situation is completely different from before.
As the head of a village, Burton of course can't ignore all this, and occasionally discuss this matter with Abt and other dignified people in the village, even if Burton deliberately hides from Erielly, but for so many years, it is impossible to completely hide from Erielly.
When she was twelve, she learned something, and from then on, she tried to find a solution on her own, but the result was beyond her expectations.
Because it's none other than herself.
Ten years ago, Erilly went up the mountain with Burton, and Arielly saw Excalibur for the first time and pulled out Excalibur, and the mountain shook for a while, Arielly was shocked, but Uncle Burton finally inserted Excalibur back before anything major happened.
However, even if it did not lead to any major disasters in a short period of time, some of the effects were quietly produced.
They didn't expect that someone would be able to notice this, thousands of miles away.
The group spent two whole years searching, and finally determined a range, the small mountain village was in this range, fortunately they tried their best to not have a more accurate determination, so the small mountain village is relatively peaceful, but the entry and exit will be checked by a group of people.
In order to reduce the panic of the villagers, they intentionally or unintentionally reduced their outings and spent the next eight years peacefully.
But those people never gave up searching and investigating, and Burton was under a lot of pressure.
Others may think they're okay, but Burton can't do that.
For the past ten years, Burton has been dreaming, there is always only one him and a sword in the dream, the dark sword always reflects this very strange light, it floats quietly in front of him, there is no attack, no resistance, but it is so scary.
It seems that in front of this dead thing, he is the most unconfident and the least existent.
And the next moment, there will be a tragic scream, which is the most painful sound that people can only make when they are forced into the vortex of death.
When he turned around, he was greeted by a tragic scene of slaughter in the village.
Blood flowed, and stumps were everywhere.
The originally peaceful and peaceful village was completely shattered, and he couldn't see who did these things, but he clearly knew that all this was definitely related to this Excalibur.
Therefore, he hurriedly controlled the back mountain, preventing people from entering and exiting casually, and even secretly moved the Excalibur to prevent unnecessary danger.
But he was still apprehensive, and after thinking about it, Burton only thought of Erilly, who was the only one who could pull out the Excalibur, and the only one who could cause trouble.
Although Burton did not want to be estranged from Erilly, in fact, Burton had no other choice.
And this has also led to the stiffness of the relationship between Burton and Arely, and the current embarrassing situation cannot be said to be without the impact of these years of estrangement.
"Erili, is it good to be obedient, come down first, don't mess around. ”
Erilly didn't respond to Burton, she held the Excalibur but didn't dare to move it for fear of hurting the man.
Burton was able to see the man because Burton had at least touched Excalibur, and he had inserted it back into place in the first place.
Others who hadn't actually held the sword couldn't understand Arielly's actions.
Erylella finally came back to her senses, and they didn't rush up to grab her, but they were actually giving her a chance.
After all, they live in a village, they support each other, help each other, and their feelings for each other are actually more like family than friends and neighbors, and no one wants to lose anyone in the village.
Irelli almost grew up watching them together, and they definitely didn't want to hurt Irilly unless it was really a last resort.
"But, Uncle Burton, this is not the case. There was a cry in Erile's voice, and her big blue eyes were full of tears, and she looked at Burton with tears in her eyes.
"Erilly did something that disappointed everyone, but that's all she could do. ”
"Everyone blames me, Erilly really ......"
"Erilly, don't do anything stupid. Burton shouted, his face even paler, and Burton looked at Arely, his tone full of pleading.
"But, dear Uncle Burton, there is no way to avoid calamity, which will come sooner or later. ”
"But even so, it's not up to you to ......"
"But it can only be me!"
Burton's head was like a ** suddenly exploded, shaking Arielly's head too much.
Suddenly, a terrible thought appeared in Burton's mind, could it be, could it be that Erilly heard that conversation, how could Arilly know about it?
The most beautiful smile bloomed on Arili's small and fair face, "Irelli has grown up, although she may still do wrong things and hurt people, but Arili really loves you, so ......"
"But it's not up to you!" roared Burton, a look of anguish on his face.
"But dear Uncle Burton, they're coming soon, aren't they, the calamity in our village is not caused by Excalibur, it's ...... "Burton is not the only one who will dream repeatedly.
