Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Vampire's Foraging Festival

There are cold and hard stone walls all around, and there are no windows, but the stone roof walls are embedded with some scattered "faint stones", which emit a thin dusk light, but they do not add a little warmth to this stone room. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

As soon as He Xinyue woke up, he found that he was locked up here. The stone chamber was not large, but it was full of about a hundred or so people, most of them adult men, and only a few women. A child, who looked to be only seven or eight years old, curled up in a woman's arms, looked at the people around him with horror in his eyes.

There was a muffled sobbing in the darkness, and the coughing of men and women. The scholar sat next to He Xinyue, carefully protecting her, his eyes full of despair.

"It's ...... Where? She found that her whole body was weak, her whole body was limp, and her mind was even more dizzy. It should be because of staying in an airtight place for a long time and lack of oxygen.

She asked the scholar, but he didn't answer. So she raised her voice with difficulty, and asked the people in the room, "Can anyone tell me where this is?" ”

A voice came from the crowd: "Girl, I don't think you're from this mountain, are you?" "The people in the caravan have said that the miners and sergeants of the Gongxia Mountains used to call themselves the people of the mountains." "Mountain people" refers to miners and army soldiers who cannot go out of the mountains all year round, rather than hunters and mountain people in the mountains.

"We're here to collect medicine in the mountains."

The voice said, "Why did you come at this time if you didn't come early or late?" ”

The scholar whispered to her, "I'm sorry, I'm the one who caused you." ”

“…… We're all appetizers for the monsters in the mountains......"

She knew it in her heart, and said softly: "Zangyue Peak, Ghost Devouring Valley." "- Where the vampires live, the lair of the vampire royal clan.

"Don't worry, we're not going to die here."

The scholar suddenly looked up at her, but her face was calm as if she hadn't said anything.

At this time, the sound of the stone door turning sounded, and the people in the house looked at the place where the sound came from, some were frightened, some were desperate and calm, some were small hopes, and more were wooden.

The stone gate gradually moved upwards, and by the dim light, she saw that there seemed to be a walkway outside the stone gate, and the walkway was lined with the same cold stone walls as the surroundings. Two male "people" who were not tall, or even a little thin, walked in from outside the stone gate, and without saying a word, they threw a bunch of clothes in the center of the stone room.

In the not very bright light, the faces of the two people were not clear, and He Xinyue only felt that their faces were slightly pale and bloodless—sure enough, they were vampires.

Seeing that no one was paying attention to them, the two men let out a voice that seemed disgusted, and then spoke: "Put it on!" "The voice was thin and high-pitched, harsh. He Xinyue was the first to act, and there was no point in wasting time on this kind of thing.

With the first, there will be the second, the third. After she put on the black robe, people came one after another to pick up the clothes and put them on. In the end, the nine men who put on this robe were taken out of the stone chamber by them.

Walk and walk along the long walkway, and the fresh and cold air is outside. Little by little, her body's senses returned, and she tried to call out for evil, but received no response.

The scholar had been following her closely, looking nervous, and she took a step behind and stood side by side with him, patting him on the shoulder as a sign of comfort.

The moment she stepped out of the aisle, it was as if she had stepped from one world to another, and the unusually bright and harsh light forced her to close her eyes. The light of this moment made her almost think that she had really returned to her original world, as if she had been reborn, but when she opened her eyes again, she was greeted by crystal and gorgeous palaces.

In the Ghost Devouring Valley of Zangyue Peak, the "Ice Crystal Palace" made of cold ice is scattered, and they walked all the way through the tunnels through the mountains, stepped on the avenue covered with smooth cold ice and carved intricate and strange patterns, and stopped in front of a huge blue-black wooden door.

On both sides of the wooden door, there are white jade-like stone walls that are as high as the wooden door, so you can't see the scene inside. Looking to both sides, you can't see the corners of the stone wall, as if this magnificent giant wall has forcibly separated the two worlds.

The heavy, large, blue-black wooden door slowly opened from the middle to the inside, and the "squeak"—"squeak"—seemed to come from the desolation. It was the first time she had come into contact with the secret lives of these intolerable demon clans on the Star Stone Continent.

The heavy smell of blood was drawn into her nose as the cold air sucked into her nose, and her pupils contracted suddenly. On the ground paved with large cyan stone slabs, a three-story round platform protrudes abruptly from the ground. In the ditches that seemed to have been cut by a sharp blade, dark red blood was bubbling and boiling.

The blood is churning, and the smell of blood is steaming, constantly impacting people's taste buds and delighting the demon's nerves.

The boiling blood splashed on the bluestone slab, gradually becoming viscous and congealed, and she resisted the urge to retch, carefully moving her steps on the bluestone slab.

The gaze of all the vampires here moves with the movement of these nine prey, bringing an invisible sense of oppression. She couldn't help but hold her breath carefully. Suddenly, there was the sound of someone "falling into the water" behind me! A man actually stumbled and fell into a pool of blood! The scholar stretched out his hand to pull, he was a literati, he had no strength, his hands and feet were flustered, but he was pulled down by the man!

In the midst of the indiscriminate fluttering of people, the smell of blood in the air became a little stronger, and she finally couldn't restrain herself, grabbed her throat, and lay on the bluestone floor and couldn't stop retching. The demon clan was watching their bustle, but they didn't make a sound.

She covered her mouth and nose tightly with her robe, and the dizziness from vomiting finally faded.

"Scholar! Grab my hand! Fast! ”

"I ......"

Seeing that the scholar and the man were about to be flooded with blood in the pool, she gritted her teeth and jumped into the pool of blood. However, she overestimated herself after all, and it was impossible for her to pull up two "overboard" men alone.

"Hmm-"

In the blood red eyes, for a moment she felt that her whole body was already soaked in blood, and every inch of skin and hair smelled bloody. By the moment she was pulled up, she no longer "disliked" the cold air filled with the smell of blood, and gasped for breath.

Kicked twice by one of the vampires leading the way, she cursed twice in her heart. I had to wait until they were about to drown before I rescued them, obviously for fun! However, when she thought of the attitude of her former colleagues towards her as a "demon girl" when she was in Jiayou, her heart instantly fell silent. It's like swallowing a stone, and my heart is blocked and uncomfortable.

She got up again, but her legs and feet were weak, and she was carried by someone before she barely "walked" to the round platform and knelt down the steps. Looking back at the scholar, he was also embarrassed, even worse than her. I don't know if he will regret entering this Gongxia Mountain Range to find Shu Yao at this point.

Not long after they knelt down, the audience began to hear the sacrificial song of the vampire clan, with a strange rhythm and inarticulate words. Ironically, it reminded her of the ballad they had sung the night before they parted ways with the caravan.

It's a vampire ritual, and when it's over, the feast of blood is about to begin.
