"Friends from afar, are you lost?"

A shriveled and hoarse voice came from the shadows of the tent.

Turning his head towards the source of the sound, the monk saw an emaciated man in a black tuxedo walking towards him.

The upper part of his face was obscured by a mask, and the lower part was pale without the slightest hint of blood.

Behind the masked man, a pair of identical-looking beautiful girls jointly held up a huge parasol with tassels, blocking out all the light around them.

Taking a small step back, Todd looked at the person he was talking to warily: "Who are you?"

The man's upper body bent slightly, his left hand pressed his right chest, and he saluted: "Please forgive me for my rudeness, it is the leader of this little circus who is humble." Just now I heard your partner say, you want to find the location of the black sheep?"

Half a step back, the boy's doubts grew, and he hit a parasol in the middle of the night, claiming to be the head of the circus, and was kind enough to show him the way?

In his previous life, no matter how he looked at it, he looked like those liars peddling fake drugs on the side of the road.

The other party's wary demeanor made the man spread his hands in embarrassment, then turned sideways, pointed to the largest tent in the center of the circus and said, "The 'black sheep' you are looking for is there." ”

Watching the two monks walk farther and farther, the man took out a delicately crafted silver file from his arms, carefully sharpened his nails, and muttered to himself, "The Holy Son who is blessed by the Holy Father......

It may not seem clear from a distance, but as he got closer, Todd realized how big the tent was in the middle of the circus. The other tents used for the show were like gnomes standing beside giants.

The entrance ticket actually costs ten bronze stars, which is already several times the price of other tents. But there was still an endless stream of spectators here, and the joy and anticipation on everyone's faces made it seem like they really didn't care about the price.

Is there such a good show here?

With this question in mind, Todd walked into the tent with little Jerry.

Choosing a hidden location near the corner, the boy looked around, observing everything around him. The arrangement is somewhat similar to that of the circus tents of the previous life, but the facilities are more rudimentary, the seats are just makeshift wooden platforms, the fences are just cheap haystacks, and the only thing that concerns you is the height of the tents. As a rough estimate, it's almost more than twenty meters.

As the audience took their seats, the fire in the tent slowly dimmed, and the curtain at the door was slowly lowered.

To Todd's surprise, in the darkness, the familiar hoarse voice sounded again: "We are convinced that the Gospel has come, and the great hour is coming. The Holy Virgin has a lamp in her hand, and the Merciful Savior has come to earth!"

Torch after torch was lit in the air, illuminating the space overhead as if it were day.

As the light came, a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl appeared on a ten-meter-high platform.

Because she was so far away, her face couldn't be seen really. A long jet-black hair, rarely seen in the Middle Ages, is tied into twisted flowers and flutters in the wind, a black and white lace-up bodysuit shows off the slender figure, sequins and pendants on the garment reflect the firelight, gorgeous but not kitsch, and snow-white and small feet stand together.

"Black sheep!"

The audience erupted in a tsunami-like cheer, and many men stood up and rushed to the fence, chanting praises aloud into the air.

Todd shrank back and looked up at the girl in the air.

I guess it's my own delusion...... The other party seemed to be staring intently at his position, and winked mischievously.

Dense drumming sounded from the depths of the tent.

The girl, known as the black sheep, untied a slipknot from a rope hanging from a high place, grabbed a wooden stick tied to one end of the rope, and jumped from a ten-meter high platform.

Looking at the graceful figure gliding through the air, Todd suddenly realized, and a famous acrobatic show from his previous life came to mind.

"Trapeze".

The rope swung from one end of the tent to the middle.

When the strength was old, the black sheep let go of the wooden stick, and took advantage of the remaining momentum to fly, and the graceful body first flipped in the air, and then stretched out its body with its back down and face up, and after a short period of suspension in the air, the body began to fall.

At this moment, another rope tied to a wooden stick swung in the middle in the darkness.

However, the stick was almost five meters away from the black sheep's hand!

The girl's body began to fall rapidly to the ground, and the sticks were getting farther and farther away from her.

Todd was so frightened by this scene that he straightened up, and unconsciously shouted from his mouth, "Be careful!"

The black sheep's fingers moved.

The next second, the girl's body disappeared in the darkness.

Todd thought he was dazzled, rubbed his eyes, and the falling body was really gone!

Loud cheers rang out from the audience, and the boy looked up. At some point, the black sheep grabbed the distant stick above his head and swung it to the other end of the tent, and with a flick of his body, his feet landed on the high platform at the other end.

The frightened monk sat back in his seat, still replaying the scene in his head.

Next, as the knot swayed from side to side, the figure of the black sheep appeared and disappeared in the air. Sometimes it suddenly appears in the air during the fall, and sometimes it teleports to the right while doing a somersault to the left.

Todd watched the performance above his head, touching the bridge of his nose with his hand and falling into deep thought. There is no doubt that the black sheep is a member of the xenomorph, but this xenomorph ability similar to 'flashing' is too weird. Judging from the interaction with the object, it should not be a phantom or afterimage, but a real teleportation.

The acrobatic girl's performance gradually drew to a close, swinging and flashing again and again, and her body came to the top of the tent.

The slender legs wrapped around the lower end of the noose, and the black sheep hanging upside down looked at the audience the size of a worm under him, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, relaxed his body, and fell straight down from a height of twenty meters with his head down.

The girl who fell from the air, a few seconds later, disappeared again.

A small pebble hit the wooden board beside Todd, and a faint fragrance wafted into his nose, and when he turned his head, the girl fell like an angel from the sky, landing beside the monk.

She gently lifted Todd's hood.

The boy was finally able to see her face up close, with black hair and black eyes, and pale gray circles. The beauty's bottom-shaped face was painted with heavy colored materials, the corners of the mouth on half of the face were painted red, and the slanted upward curve drew a smile, and the cheek of half of the face was painted with a tear in lead white, vivid and depressed sadness.

The black sheep looked at the messy hair on the top of the other party's head, stretched out his white and tender little hand, rubbing it non-stop, and smiling like a flower.
