"Welcome back, gentlemen."

Zhen Lian bowed to Li Yanyi,

"Okay."

Li Yan answered, and was just about to enter the house, when he suddenly stopped and glanced at her: "Do you have anything to say to me?" ”

Zhen Lian raised his head when he heard this, and said softly: "There will be one more junior sister in the red lantern." ”

"So?"

Zhen Lian glanced at Li Yan cautiously: "It's Miss Dorothy from the Black Rose Theater." This morning, she took the initiative to join the association and paid $10,000 in teaching fees. Well, Liang Hui brought her here. ”

She hesitated for a moment before adding, "Liang Hui brought her here." ”

Cha Knife whistled playfully.

Li Yanyi frowned: "Where is she?" ”

"In the church, Dorothy was very interested in the allusions to the gods in the Secret Book of Taiyin, so I lent her the book."

Li Yan nodded, raised his feet to leave, Zhen Lian hurriedly added: "For the sake of preaching, I explained to her some of the great deeds of the blue-clothed emperor. ”

Li Yan smiled dumbly when he heard this: "It doesn't matter. ”

————————————————

"Everything in the world is in the Red Crown Emperor, and it is in line with the ultimate source of life. The black-robed emperor exists in the world, taking off the red crown of the old king with false logic and knowledge, and using humans as sacrifices to enslave them forever. ”

Zhen Lian's Taiyin Secret Dictionary is a handwritten English translation of an ancient Chinese book by a Portuguese traveler, with monochrome photographs of Qin Li's bamboo tubes attached to it, and behind each photograph is a traveler's handwritten English annotation. The book has gone through several generations of masters, and the translation has been completed to a greater or lesser extent, even if some of the photographs are illegible. Just by reading English, you can read six or seven percent.

Dorothy had read it with relish, but suddenly, when she saw a section in the translation, she couldn't help frowning.

This section is written in the large blank space between the two photos, and it is impossible to tell which photo corresponds to the English translation of the photo, four photos, but here five verses are written, and the extra section reads:

"The Red-crowned Emperor once had sexual intercourse with an Indian woman in an unknown way, and gave birth to a deity of partial human blood, and it, no, he wore a blue robe and carried the will of the Red-crowned Emperor......"

The handwriting in this paragraph is slightly different from the front and back, and it is not easy to find without looking carefully. And, in less than a hundred words, there are more than four grammatical errors. In some places, the ink is still new, and the color of the other text is not in harmony. This made Dorothy secretly watchful.

She flipped through a few more pages, and found a few more annotated passages that seemed to be imposed, and all of them, without exception, referred to the so-called "Emperor in Blue".

Dorothy stroked the paper, she was almost more than ninety percent sure, these contents were nothing, not the original text on the Taiyin Secret Book at all, but added by later generations.

Gangster leaders, money-hungry goddesses, false scriptures, can these people really be trusted?

Squeak~

The wooden door with a somewhat rotten handle was suddenly pushed open, and Dorothy, who was in deep thought, exclaimed in surprise and looked up in a panic.

Li Yan stared at Dorothy's red fluttering face and looked around: "Are there rats in the house?" Lady. ”

Dorothy pulled her hair and forced a smile: "Miss Zhen Lian's book is quite interesting. ”

She stood up, walked up to Li Yan and stretched out her slender white palm: "It's not easy to see you, Liang ...... Mr. Hui? ”

"I usually love drama art, and I bought the ticket through a friend's door, you can call me Li Yan."

Dorothy narrowed her eyes, as if she had caught the golden silk cat with a bell: "Then I don't know, what style of drama does Mr. Li Yan like?" Classicism? Realism? Comedy or tragedy? Can you give an example? ”

"Don Juan."

Without waiting for Dorothy to ask more, Li Yan's words changed: "Miss Dorothy came to me, didn't she come to me to discuss religion and drama art?" ”

Dorothy lowered her head and pondered for a while before she raised her head and said, "Miss Zhen Lian said that the blue-clothed emperor is a wise and generous god, and I am willing to dedicate my life's wealth to serve Your Majesty wholeheartedly, as long as you can serve me ...... Drive it away. ”

"Why don't you sit down?"

Dorothy shook her head, and said, "But I want us to be honest with each other. In this apocalyptic world of steam machinery, I have experienced too many disappointments. Most of the liars who coveted me died at its hands. So, will the Blue Emperor disappoint me? ”

Dorothy looked directly at Li Yan.

"Whether the blue-clothed emperor will or not, I don't know. I'd love to give it a try. ”

Li Yan was a little more pale.

Dorothy exhaled, and then, she walked to a wardrobe mirror, faced Li Yan, and exposed her back to the mirror.

"What do you see? Mr. Li Yan? ”

"A sexy beauty."

Dorothy smiled at Li Yanran, and then, she took off a platinum chain from her neck, and on top of it was a pitch-black hot pot-like part, which was a small triathlon ball.

When Chang~

The necklace was thrown by her on the table, and under the candlelight, Dorothy's forehead was faintly oozing sweat, and her voice was hoarse: "What now? ”

In front of the mirror, Dorothy was still shining, but the back of the slender beauty in the mirror was gone, replaced by a cloud of black smoke, with octopus-like mouthparts and tentacles pouring out of the black mist, and the tentacles were rolled up with quills, parchments, inkwells, hourglasses, clocks, and occasionally the stumps of various animals, including half-amputated mice, fish eyes, and human faces.

"A sexy beauty with a terrifying back."

Li Yan squinted.

"Help, help me......"

Dorothy screamed in pain, her towering chest rose and fell violently with fear, and there was even a bit of crying in her tone: "It's calling me, turn back, I don't, can't look back, the people who look at it are dead, please help me." ”

Li Yan picked up the three-ball necklace on the table, put it on for Dorothy, and stuffed the three-ball into Dorothy's neck, only to see that the mirror directly burst and cracked, and countless Dorothy's backs appeared on the broken mirror.

At this moment, Dorothy's face was pale, her pupils were dilated, and she could barely breathe, she grabbed Li Yan's shoulders, her nails sank into Li Yan's clothes, and she couldn't breathe for a long time.

"It's really not going to hurt you...... Nor can it confuse your ......, otherwise, now you are either a madman or a part of it. ”

Li Yan helped Dorothy to the table and poured him a pot of black tea. "You haven't seen it, have you?" he asked. ”

"I've heard people describe it."

"Who?"

"My adoptive father, my best friend, and many others, all of them died."

Dorothy looked up, her hair stuck with sweat, "Can you help me, sir?" ”

"I'm not sure, I'm not interested in knowing where it came from, family genetics, sects, resentful spirits, antique curses, whatever. I can try to help you, the kind that gets paid, and that's until then, and I have to ask, do you really want to get rid of it, or kill it? ”

"Of course!"

Dorothy's eyes widened: "It's the most terrible parasite, it kills everyone close to me. It also kills me. ”

"If you don't look back, you won't. If you carry a three-ball with you, you won't. ”

Dorothy shook her head frantically, she muttered, "I can't stand it, it splits my soul, you know, every night when I go to sleep, there are countless voices arguing in my head, Princess Pea yelling for more luxuries and jewelry, Jane is a war maniac, she thinks about her steam soldier all the time, and the Celtic makes me dance all night." I woke up one morning and walked on the roof in a revealing ballet suit I'd never seen before, with a loaded pistol in my hand, and I almost went crazy. ”

"It also brings you honor, fame, status. You became the greatest dramatist of the end of the century, and countless people fell in love with you. Have you ever thought that if you get rid of it, your drama will still have the magic that makes people obsessed with it? ”

“…… How can you be sure, sir, that driving away it will make my drama unattractive? ”

Dorothy was a little unconvinced.

"I just offered a possibility, and decided to ask you to do it."

Dorothy was stunned for a while, opening her mouth several times, but swallowing the words.

"Everything has a price, Miss Dorothy, can you bear it?"

Li Yan asked with a smile.

Dorothy's eyes flickered, and she didn't answer.

Li Yan patted her on the shoulder: "Come to me after thinking about it." ”

Dorothy lowered her head gloomily, and she was just about to leave, when Li Yan spoke again: "By the way, I know that many people have recently given you a lot of strange things, including an anti-vasourism occult book, if you don't need it, can you give it to me?" It's a deposit. ”

Dorothy nodded with a disappointed expression: "I'll send someone to deliver the book tomorrow." Goodbye, Mr. Li Yan. ”

"Say hello to Jane for me."

Li Yan in the chair said,
