In the British Natural History Museum, two men and a woman are studying a thousand-year-old corpse.

"Professor Charles, how much do you know about vampires that first came out of your UK?" Zhao Qi observed the meeting and asked Professor Charles, after all, vampires do not belong to the Chinese species, and Zhao Qi does not know much about it, at most he knows a little from some novels and movies.

"Oh no, Qi, I think you're mistaken, vampires don't belong to any country." Professor Charles waved his hand after hearing Zhao Qi's words and said.

"Huh?" Zhao Qi looked at Professor Charles suspiciously.

"The origin of vampires can be traced back thousands of years, and in the myths and legends of the early Mesopotamian civilization, the ancient Hebrew civilization, the ancient Roman civilization, etc., there were demons who sucked the essence of human beings. But the creation of the image of the vampire in the true modern sense mainly comes from the folklore that was passed down orally to Eastern Europe in the eighteenth century. Without waiting for Professor Charles to explain, Lily, who instantly transformed into an intellectual beauty after putting on her glasses, opened her mouth to tell the origin of the vampire, and this rapid identity transformation made Zhao Qi feel strange......

"In these legends, a vampire refers to a corpse that is able to crawl out of a grave and suck blood after death. Under the conditions of underdeveloped medical treatment, some people who did not really die, but were only in shock, were buried, and then when they woke up or moved again, they were regarded as immortal beings. During the Black Death epidemic in Europe, the fear of the continued activity of the dead was created in situations of extreme panic, hence the legend of German vampires like Nitat, who had the ability to spread the Black Death. Lily pushed her eyes against the bridge of her nose.

"So the rumored vampire doesn't exist?" Zhao Qi followed her words and asked.

"No, this is only official information, and there are other aspects that are not known." As he spoke, Charles pulled out a notebook he had carried. After opening it, he pointed to it and said.

"In nineteenth-century England, there was a young man who left home as a teenager when he was only eighteen. Fifty years later, he returned to his hometown, but his appearance did not change in the slightest. This matter has been confirmed by dozens of elderly people in the local town. ”

"This could also be his child, and besides, it's been fifty years, who can remember what he looked like at that time?" Zhao Qi asked.

"It's not out of the question, and there is another piece of news that in Russia in 1993, a 'vampire' was arrested by the police for sucking blood and biting people. The horrific murder took place in a park in the southern Russian city of Abakan. The attacker beat the victim to a coma, then bit the victim's throat and sucked the blood hard. Two teenage girls witnessed the horrific murder, and the 'vampire' was arrested in Pushkin Park. Charles closed the notebook in his hand and said slowly.

"And there are similar incidents all over the world, right. Qi: In 1995, a similar incident occurred in Pudong, Shanghai, China, did you know? Charles asked.

"I haven't heard of it." Zhao Qi recalled it carefully and said, he really hadn't heard of it.

"Impossible, it also caused a global sensation at that time, why don't you know as a Chinese?"

Charles pushed his reading glasses and searched them in his notebook again.

"Oh, Professor Charles, I'm thinking I'm coming. You don't have to look any further. Zhao Qi wiped the cold sweat on his head and took Professor Charles's hand, after all, China's secrecy work in this area should not be mentioned.

"Charles. Can this lid be opened? Lily took advantage of the fact that the two of them were not paying attention, and worked hard for a long time, but the lid still did not move.

"Oh, that's not going to work. You need a key to open the lid, but the key isn't with me, so you can watch from the outside. Charles said with a smile.

……

Lily's energy is quite strong. I didn't even eat dinner, I lay on the coffin and studied for a long time, and took out the small notebook I carried with me to write and draw, completely forgetting the two men, one old and one young.

"Lily, isn't it time for dinner?" Zhao Qi looked at the time and it was already eight o'clock in the evening, so he walked to Lily's side and asked.

"......" It's a pity that Lily didn't even look at Zhao Qi and continued her research.

"Professor Charles, I have some food here, let's eat it first." Zhao Qi gave Lily a blank look, and took out some cooked food from his sleeve under the cover of Lily's suitcase.

"Ah, it's delicious. Qi, is this your Chinese food? Charles was holding a duck leg and gnawing on it.

"Yes, this is the famous Chinese food, Peking duck." Last time in Beijing, Zhao Qi specially bought a lot of Peking duck and put it on his body, in order to satisfy his cravings when he wanted to eat.

"Peking duck, I know, but unfortunately I haven't eaten it all the time." Professor Charles said vaguely with his face covered in oil.

When Zhao Qi was holding a duck leg and was about to send it to his mouth, a small hand instantly snatched the duck leg from Zhao Qi's hand, and Zhao Qi looked back and saw that it was Lily.

"Don't you eat it?" Zhao Qi tore off another duck leg and asked.

"I didn't say I wouldn't eat, you didn't ask me."

"You're like a duck in my hand." Zhao Qi glanced at Lily.

"Why? How could I be like a duck? ”

"Hard-mouthed ......"

……

After the three of them ate three ducks, they put down the three duck butts in their hands with satisfaction.

"Qi, when did you bring the duck, why didn't I see it?" Lily asked suspiciously, since she and Zhao Qi met, Zhao Qi didn't bring any luggage, so how could a few ducks suddenly appear?

"Aha, Lily, it's interesting to see the nail on this corpse's left foot." Zhao Qi turned his head and began to comment on the corpse in the middle.

"Really? I'll take a look. And the nervous Lily didn't doubt him, and in a blink of an eye she forgot about her problem.

"Look at this foot ......" Before he could say anything, Zhao Qi's originally smiling face instantly became serious, because he suddenly felt that there was suddenly an extra person around this room......

"I don't feel any different." Lily and Professor Charles were still studying the corpse, and Zhao Qi had already begun to gather his spirit vigilantly.

"Here." After careful investigation, Zhao Qi quickly locked on to the target, but his face was silent, still looking at the corpse in front of him unhurriedly.

This suddenly extra person was lying on the wall like a gecko, although Zhao Qi didn't look at him directly, he could feel that his eyes were staring at the corpse in the middle of the three.

"What is the purpose of this man? Do you want to steal corpses? And what is there about this corpse that is worth stealing? Zhao Qi thought slowly, and suddenly thought of the heart part on this corpse, the trace of evil aura.

After feeling the person above, Zhao Qi found that he also had the same aura on his body as the person in the coffin.

"A live vampire stealing a dead vampire?" The curiosity in Zhao Qi's heart became more and more intense. It was at this time that the anomaly protruded.

The person above his head jumped down in an instant, and at the same time as he jumped, a large puff of black smoke also erupted from his hands. The smoke instantly shrouded the bodies of several people, Professor Charles and Lily inhaled the black smoke, and instantly fainted to the ground, it seems that the main function of this black fog is similar to ecstasy, in order to know the purpose of this mysterious person, Zhao Qi fell to the ground silently.

The mysterious man landed lightly on the ground, like a goose feather, without making any sound.

Zhao Qi was lying on the ground, but the aura in his body was already ready to go, as long as this person had any bad actions, Zhao Qi would fight back at the first time.

The man was tall, but thin, dressed in a medieval black gown, with deeply sunken eyes, a pale face, and two sharp upper fangs on his mouth, identical to those of a vampire.

He looked at the three people lying on the ground, and when he saw Zhao Qi and Lily, his eyes emitted a scorching light, and he raised his legs and walked towards Zhao Qi.

Zhao Qi could clearly feel that the vampire's attention was his neck.

"It's not a small amount of courage, you want to suck my blood." Zhao Qi, who was lying on the ground, did not have the slightest movement, you must know that he would shoot a few vajra talismans on his body all year round, if this vampire dared to suck, he would definitely break off his two teeth.

To Zhao Qi's surprise, the vampire took two steps and then stopped, turned around and walked to the coffin where the corpse was placed in the middle.

The vampire fumbled around his body and found a key and inserted it into a keyhole in the front of the coffin.

The moment the coffin lid was opened, Zhao Qi only saw a burst of light erupt in the vampire's eyes, and even his body trembled with excitement.

He took out a piece of cloth and wrapped the body in the coffin, then quickly opened the door and walked out, ignoring the three people lying on the ground.

After Zhao Qi saw the vampire leave, Zhao Qi also turned over and stood up, first looked at the two people lying on the ground, and found that the two of them just fell asleep and stopped caring about it, and after walking out of the door, they observed it and left in one direction.

The vampire was clearly ready, for example, the key he had brought, and the route he was going to escape from.

The main entrance to the museum was closed, and the vampire dodged multiple cameras and exited through a window on the second floor, while Zhao Qi followed him and jumped out of the museum...... (To be continued......)
