Chapter 156: Catch the Rat King
Fortunately, the two guys didn't chase after them. If only it were a nightmare, Emma had never longed for a nightmare to befall her before as much as she had done at this time.
Emma crouched down against the vine-covered wall in the dark, she had mustered up the courage to grab the vine and climb up, but within half of it, she stopped doing this, for no other reason, fear of heights was her constant weakness. She was thinking that even if she climbed the wall, she wouldn't have the courage to jump off, and maybe she would faint out of fear. She is not afraid of the dark, she is not afraid of the Odin, but she is afraid of the high...... It would be nice if he was the Black Cat King, he only needed one jump to climb over everything, and no matter how agile the dwarf's men were, it would be impossible to catch the Black Cat King. If only they could melt into the shadows of the darkness, they can't see themselves...... I can't see myself......
It's a pity that there is no if......
In the darkness, Emma wondered where she was, the house not far away was unbelievably large, and where the former owner of the abandoned mansion had gone.
She remembers that as a child, she would often have nightmares about being lost in this criss-crossing alley. My father said that most of the houses were deserted, and that the alleys formed a huge labyrinth, and at night, demons would crawl out of the ground...... It's a ruse, just to keep yourself from coming to him, and Emma knows he's scaring herself. But now that I think about it, I thought I was smart, there really is a demon! The dwarf just now is a demon!
There must be nothing good for the dwarf to let those two tall guys catch him. "If you see a blond-haired person walking around the road, when a blond-haired person is staring at you, look for an opportunity to escape, if you meet a blond-haired person talking to you at night, you must run home quickly, don't go to the blond-haired man to buy food and ......" her father's warning seemed to echo in her ears, and when she was seven or eight years old, she would still obey these words as if they were life mottos. The blond-haired man seemed to be the demon in her life, and she needed to stay away and be in awe...... But slowly, she found out that things were not like that, and she saw that her father would talk to the blonde haired people, go to the blonde people to buy food, and her grandfather would also treat the blonde people...... Everything began to change, since she rarely saw her father......
Originally, her father was the only god of light in her life, and she would obey every command given by the god of light, but later, even the god of light began to violate her principles, so what reason did she have to obey?
It was actually a slow process, at first, she would be surprised by her father's approach, but then gradually, she became less resistant, and later became familiar with it...... Blonde haired people aren't so scary anymore. But at this point, she wants to overturn her own judgment...... I just met those Odinites and should run directly.
Emma found it dark, and the moonlight could not penetrate under the high walls, so she decided to wait until dawn to go out the way she came, and by then the blond-haired gnome must have left.
Emma carefully observed everything under the moonlight, there were some fish bones and other things under the dry pool, it must have been done by the black catlord, Emma felt that the black catlord was everywhere, and he must be peeping at himself in some corner at this time.
Squatting with a little soreness in her legs, she stood up cautiously. In addition to a two-story building and a pond in front of me, there are some dilapidated homes in the yard...... Wooden cabinets broken in half, carriages without roofs and wheels, wooden pieces scattered all over the ground......
After looking at it, she curiously walked into the second floor, breathing in the murky air of the house, and she coughed violently. Suddenly, she covered her mouth again, and Emma thought to herself that the Odin people outside must have heard it. She began to tread carefully on the wooden floor beneath her feet, and from one room, she saw a gap that she could slip into.
It's a low cabinet, a low cabinet that lies in the corner.
The pink clothes on her body were already muddy, and she didn't care about the plaster and dirt, slowly lifted the plank, and then lay down.
Well, maybe it's more appropriate to say that it's a coffin now, and if it's found by the Odin people outside, they can bury themselves in the ground.
Gradually reducing the sound of her own breathing, Emma told herself. With enough time to adjust, she still couldn't see everything in front of her...... Belch...... What do you expect to see in the cupboard? I think I'm really scared silly. She slowly closed her eyes and listened to everything around her.
She didn't know how long it had been before she heard a voice coming from far away. Footsteps, shouts, and the terrible howls of the Black Cat King, eh...... Black cats are everywhere.
“...... Sticks Party...... Those guys are all gone. From far and near, a man's voice came, "Find them no matter what." ”
Emma heard their footsteps, and they walked into the second floor!
"We just want sticks in their hands, not to kill them. The second voice said, "What is there to run, the city of Josun is so big, and one day it will be able to pull them out." ”
"The host only gave ...... We had three days...... Ah, we're only ...... this time Fifty people were brought. These two people should be in the same group as the three of the dwarfs, as if separated by a wall, and their voices are sometimes far and near, intermittent, and she can only listen to a rough idea. "The host said that he was going to Heping Town tomorrow, do you remember Heping Town. ”
"We went there ten years ago, it's a poor place," the second voice complained, "and it didn't seem like we had even a hundred gold coins when we went there last time." ”
The other sneered: "Indeed, I have never seen such a poor place, I remember that when we came back, we died of two Odin horses, good fellow, the money robbed is not enough to go to the royal capital to buy two Odin horses." After a while, Emma could hear their footsteps getting closer and closer, and seemed to have entered the room where she was, and faintly, she heard the sound of torches thundering, and she held her breath.
"Let's hurry up and find a way to catch mice. At this point, Emma could hear them clearly.
"It's too much trouble to catch the little mouse, we have to catch the mouse king!Why don't we just catch the mouse king?" another voice said, "Catch the mouse king, and the little mice will all disarm and surrender!"
"Do you think you're the only one who can think of this?" said a gloomy voice, "The master knows everything!"
"Perhaps," another voice walked away, and then said a name that made her heart beat wildly, "Palestinian, that's the name, the master said we should keep an eye on this name, maybe he's the Rat King?"
"Really...... On such a beautiful night, how ...... would it be to go to Hualiu Street to party I said man, you ......" Gradually, she couldn't hear them anymore.
After a long time, the voice faded, and after she had no sound at all, she quietly removed the wooden plank on the top of the cabinet.
She let out a long exhale, then crawled out of the cabinet.
The room was desolate and there was nothing.
Emma patted the dust off her body, and when she looked up again, she was shocked to see that there was one more person in the room!!
