Chapter 315: A Hand
Chapter 315 A Hand
"Smith, it's okay, he's not hostile, just look ()." Lin Zixian hurried over to appease Smith.
"It's weird, it's a vampire!" Lin Bao raised his head and looked left and right in the air, and said with a puzzled face: "Why are you not afraid of the sun, you dare to walk in broad daylight, is it that the so-called ozone layer is too badly damaged, and the sunlight is ineffective for them?" â
Lin Zixian was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect the old man to know such an advanced word as 'ozone layer', he paused, and said curiously: "Old man, you also know vampires?" â
Smith also saw that people really didn't mean to deal with him, so he gradually relaxed, the earthworm-like black lines on his face disappeared, the fangs retracted, and the pupils returned to their normal blue.
"You really think I'm an old country horseman and haven't seen anything? I thought you did something new to open my eyes, feelings are a vampire, and this is also worth showing off? Lin Bao was very disdainful.
"It's not fresh enough! Even if you've seen it before, have you ever seen such a handsome vampire? Lin Zixian waved his hand and pointed at Smith and said, "Have you ever seen a vampire who can be alive and kicking around in broad daylight?" I've traveled all the way to make such a handsome thing to show you, and you still don't appreciate it. â
"Uh......" Lin Bao was speechless, he really hadn't seen this before, and it was the first time he had seen such a strange vampire, which was beyond his knowledge of vampires. He looked Smith up and down for a while, waved his hand, and said, "Go make a pot of tea, and tell me slowly what's going on, how do I feel a little strange about this." â
Finally passed the test and was exempt from beating, Lin Zixian quickly went to the house to get something ().
Lin Bao walked under the shade of the tree and beckoned to Smith, "Vampire, are you standing in the sun or not?" If you say so, come and talk. â
Smith didn't understand what he was saying, but he understood that the gesture was calling him over, so he hesitantly walked over. Lin Bao immediately put his hands around him behind his back and asked with a smile, but Smith couldn't understand a word, and his face was at a loss.
"Could it be that this vampire is mute? Oh......" Then he reacted again, estimating that this vampire didn't understand the Chinese language, and nodded slightly: "Yes, not every vampire understands the Chinese language." â
Lin Zixian quickly moved a bunch of tables and chairs out, set up the tables and chairs under the shade of the trees, put a small stove in the middle of the table, and burned a small pile of bamboo charcoal in the small stove. Then he carried a purple clay pot to the waterfall not far away and fetched a pot of mountain spring water, and put it on the stove to boil the water.
Lin Zixian beckoned Smith to sit down as well, and the three of them sat together around a coffee table.
"Old man, have you ever dealt with vampires? I've never heard you say that before! Could it be that you have ever been abroad? Lin Zixian asked curiously.
"What kind of country to go out of, I have never been out of the country in my life, if the large area of Chinese territory that was cut out in the north is also considered a foreign country, then it has been out of the country. If it weren't for this regret, it wouldn't have allowed you to go abroad to learn more. Lin Bao smacked, stared at Smith for a while, and asked, "Does he not understand the Chinese language?" â
"Yes." Lin Zixian nodded.
Lin Bao then showed a relieved look and asked directly, "Where did you get this monster?" â
"It's a friend I met abroad." Lin Zixian turned the topic back and asked again: "Old man, it seems that you are no stranger to vampires, when have you dealt with vampires?" â
"It was a long time ago ()." Lin Bao pondered for a while, and said slowly: "About a hundred years ago, I was only in my early fifties at that time, and it was the end of the Qing Dynasty. At that time, the Eight-Nation Coalition invaded China, and I was so angry that I wanted to kill some foreign devils to put out the fire, but who knew that there was a group of vampires hidden in the middle of that group of foreign devils, but the foreign devils did not succeed, but they fought with those vampires and fought with them a few times. When I forced those vampires back, and the Qing Dynasty government had finished paying land indemnities, it would be a shame to think about it. â
"I see." Lin Zixian suddenly realized. Seeing that the water on the stove was boiling, he picked up the small porcelain bottle on the table, picked out a spoonful of tea leaves, lifted the lid of the purple clay pot, and poured the tea leaves into it. Soon, a burst of tea fragrance wafted out with the boiling water, refreshing people's hearts.
After watering the charcoal stove to the side and extinguishing it, Lin Zixian poured clear tea into the three teacups that had been arranged, pushed two of them to Lin Bao and Smith, and asked again: "Old man, didn't you ask them why they came to Huaxia at that time?" They shouldn't have followed the army to invade openly, right? â
"How can you not ask." Lin Bao took a sip of fragrant tea, shook his head slowly, and said, "It's really a coincidence, they actually came to Huaxia to find me." â
"Looking for you?" Lin Zi was stunned for a moment, and asked curiously: "Could it be that before this, there were any entanglements between you?" â
"Not really, it's the first time I've dealt with them. When they came, they mainly wanted to save people in Huaxia, but the people they wanted to save had something to do with me. Lin Bao sneered.
"Old man, why don't I understand, can you not sell Guanzi and make it clearer?" Lin Zixian was a little anxious.
"Actually, to be exact, they came to find my master, that is, your master, but your master had passed away at that time, and the person they were looking for was in the hands of our White Lotus Sect, so it was equivalent to coming to me, and it happened to meet me again." Speaking of his master, Lin Bao's eyes drifted away, somewhat embarrassed and nostalgic.
Lin Zixian became more and more confused by him, and frowned: "Why is this matter related to the old man again, could it be said that the master has also dealt with the 'blood clan'?" â
"Who said it wasn't ()." Lin Bao glanced at Smith, shook his head with emotion, and said, "Could it be that my White Lotus Sect is destined to have an inextricable fate with that group of monsters?" Now even you are involved with them, hey! â
"Old man, tell me what is going on from beginning to end! Don't go around! Lin Zixian didn't drink a sip of tea in front of him.
Smith, who was tossed and discouraged, didn't understand anything, but he took a sip of tea there, looking at this for a while, looking at that for a while, in short, looking at whoever spoke.
Lin Bao sighed leisurely: "This matter is far away, I also heard your master mention it, and I haven't experienced it personally." It was still in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, that is, the blood clan you mentioned, just like the invasion of China by the Eight-Nation Alliance, it also took the opportunity of a large number of foreign devils to come to our China. Hong Xiuquan, the leader of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, originally relied on my White Lotus Sect to start his family, so naturally he was inevitably implicated with your master, and at the same time, Hong Xiuquan was implicated with foreign devils. Because of this, in the process of coming and going, your master accidentally discovered that these monsters were sucking human blood, so he naturally fought with them. In the same way, your master naturally had to inquire about the purpose of their coming to China, but when he caught those monsters and asked, he realized that they were coming to China to find a 'hand'. â
"Looking for a 'hand'? What do you mean? Lin Zi said in amazement.
"Your master also wants to know what it means, but those low-level vampires don't know what the so-called 'one hand' means, only that the mission here is to find 'one hand'. In this way, your master naturally wants to ask more advanced vampires about it, but even if those high-level vampires know, they are secretive about it, and no one will spit out the truth after your master has killed several of them. In fact, I still don't understand what they mean by the 'one hand' they're looking for. â
Lin Bao said and snorted at Smith, "Isn't this monster from that 'blood clan'?" Why don't you ask him if he knows? â
Lin Zixian's eyes lit up, yes! Smith is the 'Holy Spirit' of the Bloodline, and may know the secrets of one hand. He immediately asked Smith in fluent English, "Smith, is there a secret about 'one hand' in your bloodline?" â
Lin Bao rolled his eyes when he heard this, and found that this kid was really not in vain abroad, and he spoke foreign dialect quite slippery ().
"The secret of one hand?" Smith was stunned for a moment, then looked solemn and said: "There is a legend about 'one hand', it is rumored that among the 'Thirteen Sacred Weapons' of the Blood Clan, there is a 'corpse hand', which is the left hand of Cain, the ancestor of the Blood Clan, and in that hand hides the secrets of the whole world. But it's not a secret, the entire blood clan knows it, and even many ordinary people know it, why do you ask this? â
Before Lin Zixian could speak, Lin Bao had already seen the clue from Smith's tone and expression, and hurriedly widened his eyes and asked, "How to say, how to say, what did he say?" â
Lin Zixian immediately translated Smith's words, and Lin Bao immediately frowned: "That's not right! If it was something known to the blood clan, it was not a secret, why would they rather die than spit out the truth? I can't do it! Ask him if he knows the whereabouts of that left hand, and see if he has anything to do with Huaxia. â
Lin Zixian nodded and continued to ask Smith, "Where is that 'hand' now?" â
"It has long been ruined." Smith spread his hands towards the two and said: "In a thousand-year holy war of the blood clan, because of the appearance of the 'Thirteen Sacred Weapons', when the Blood Clan fought to the death, the Holy See intervened strongly, and the 'Thirteen Sacred Weapons' were destroyed in public, and that hand was the first to be destroyed, and there was no longer zĂ i." â
"Ruined?" Lin Zixian said suspiciously: "Are you sure it was really destroyed?" â
"There is no doubt about this, so many people have seen it with their own eyes, and the law of so many blood clan elders cannot be faked at the moment. If any one of the 'Thirteen Hallows' still exists in the world, then the whole world will change for it, and it will not be the way it is now. Smith confirmed.
"I see." Lin Zixian immediately translated his words to the old man.
Lin Bao nodded slightly when he heard this: "Then it should be destroyed, it seems that that hand and this hand are not the same thing at all, otherwise those monsters don't need to lose their lives for the open secret." Belch...... Left hand, will the 'one hand' be the right hand? â
