Chapter 8: The Devil's Whisper
Ouyang Nian picked up his mobile phone, pointed it at himself and Ye Yuantai, and took selfies again and again. Under flash illumination, the iPhone's images are fairly sharp.
At this time, cages began to appear on both sides of the lake shore in front of them, and inside the cages, skeletons and corpses were kept, all of which were hung high.
"Ahh
Just as the boat approached the cage, the corpses inside immediately let out a scream.
Ouyang Nian's face turned slightly pale, his hand trembled, and he almost threw his phone into the water.
"I still want to see handsome vampires," Ouyang Nian muttered, "These aren't beautiful at all. β
Ye Yuantai's reaction to Ouyang Nian was not surprised at all, she had always been like this, saying that she liked Gothic culture, but it was better to say that she purely liked beautiful things.
"You be careful," Ye Yuantai reminded, "When the water is turbulent, don't stretch out your hand to take pictures." β
"Hmmm......"
The eerie music makes people feel a little weird to listen to. However, Ouyang Nian's interest is still quite high, and the torture of death is a holy place for couples to check in, although it sounds clichΓ©, but it is full of a strong sense of ritual.
She leaned her head slightly against Ye Yuantai beside her, at this time, she was thinking that her rival in love was a dead person after all. Over time, she will eventually be able to take the place of the dead.
After the torture of death is over, only death can separate her from Hara Tai......
Only death......
Suddenly, the music stopped abruptly, and then a terrifying murmur came from the darkness ahead.
And the whispering sound became clearer and clearer as the boat advanced. Ye Yuantai suddenly noticed that under the dim light, a huge shadow suddenly appeared on the wall.
Ye Yuantai looked at the huge shadow and was stunned for a while.
Could it be the demon Nilai Loga?
β¦β¦
"Hara Tai, look, this is your newly drawn character design draft......"
Ah Yu's figure, even now, is still extremely clear in Ye Yuantai's mind.
Once upon a time, his mentality was the same as Ouyang Nian now. For him, being with Ah Yu is the highest happiness, and he will not ask for any more wishes.
Perhaps because she is half German, her comics always have a strong European and American style, and most of them are Gothic-style shoujo comics. However, Ye Yuantai, as a man, also likes her comics as much.
"This character is based on you, the immortal Count Edurin, who was turned into a vampire in 1852 and has been ...... ever since"
Ye Yuantai always watched her happily introduce her comics, even if she heard her say that she was not tired for a day.
"Yuan Tai, I want to go to S City, to Nilai Loga Park, which is the only Gothic culture theme park in China, I think about it, let's go there, to the underground lake of the vampire castle, and experience the torture of death......"
"What kind of torture of death, it sounds ......" When Ye Yuantai heard it for the first time, he was still puzzled: "It seems very unlucky?" β
"This is the inherent thinking of the Chinese, and when they hear that death is unlucky, they are taboo and do not mention it." Because half of him is of European descent, Ah Yu does not have the psychology of taboo death at all: "Horror, supernaturalness, and death are the core of Gothic culture. What's more, the existence of being able to face death can live well. Isn't it said that the marriage vows in the West are spoken? Only death can separate husband and wife, and it is death that sets off the sanctity of marriage. Yuan Tai, everyone can die anytime and anywhere, and life is more precious because of this. β
Ye Yuantai clearly remembered every word she said at that time.
"It's the same as the marriage vows, although it is relatively unpopular, but don't you think the torture of the death of the dark lord is very romantic? Only those who truly love each other can survive. β
"Sounds romantic."
"Yuan Tai, we must go there in the future to verify our eternal love, okay?"
"Okay, I promise you, when we are all free, we will go to S City together."
The low moaning sound, in Ye Yuantai's ears, became clearer and clearer, and he began to be surprised by the stereo sound in this underground lake.
And as time passed, he began to vaguely hear the specifics of the murmur.
"You ......"
The first word he heard in the murmur was "you"!
"Ah Nian," he hurriedly said to Ouyang Nian, "Have you heard the content of this whispering sound clearly?" β
Ouyang Nian was stunned for a moment and said, "Now that the music has stopped, where is the whispering sound?" Haratae, you're too nervous to hallucinate, aren't you? β
Hearing Ouyang Nian's words, Ye Yuantai was stunned.
He then looked at the location where the huge shadow had been cast earlier, but saw nothing.
This moan...... Ouyang Nian can't hear it, only he can hear it?
β¦β¦
"Yuan Tai, can you drive to pick me up tonight?"
"I'm sorry, Ah Yu. Today, I temporarily went to the suburbs to shoot exterior locations, and even if I rush back now, I won't have time to pick you up. β
"That's right...... That's unfortunate, I'll take a taxi myself. β
"I'm sorry, Ah Yu."
"It's okay, you're just a rookie graphic model, and you can't do the main shooting."
However, that was the last call between Ye Yuantai and Ah Yu.
On the way back, Ah Yu was in a car accident. The other party was a drunk driver, and when the accident occurred, Ah Yu died on the spot. At that time, it was less than three months before they agreed to get married.
When he saw Ah Yu's body in the morgue, the first thing that appeared in Ye Yuantai's mind was the sentence that Ah Yu had said to him. Everyone, every moment, can die, and because of this, life is precious.
When I heard this sentence, I felt very philosophical, but when death befell the people around him, Ye Yuantai experienced the despair and pain even more.
However...... There is no resurrection from death. There is no way to reverse this.
β¦β¦
"You...... Want to ......"
The low moan continued to echo in Ye Yuantai's ears over and over again.
And this time, Ye Yuantai heard the word "think" again.
"Ahh
A scream interrupted his thoughts, Ye Yuantai immediately looked to the side, and in a nearby cage, there was a person covered in blood-stained bandages, rushing to the cage, stretching out his hand, and screaming. And at this time, the boat was less than a meter away from the cage.
"Is this a transparent person?" Ye Yuantai asked Ouyang Nian in a daze.
Ouyang Nian was almost accustomed to the terrifying atmosphere here at this time, and said, "Well, no, this is a blood-sucking zombie that was awakened by a demon and came back from the dead. Unlike the vampires who were first embraced......"
People die...... There is absolutely no resurrection.
This is clear to anyone. What zombies, vampires, are nothing more than the product of the imagination of the human mind.
Ye Yuantai has always been very aware of this.
"You...... Think...... To ......"
At this moment, the murmur sounded in his ears again.
This time, it was as if someone was speaking in his ear. He immediately turned his head to look, but there was no one next to him.
Just now...... He heard the full content of the murmuring perfectly.
Suddenly, the lights around it went out completely! And the water level has also begun to fall.
"Yuan Tai, the water is going to be turbulent next......"
Hara-tai's mouth opened, and he wanted to say something.
What to say?
"Yuan Tai, in the future, we must go to Nilai Loga Paradise......"
"Validating our eternal ...... of love"
It's been three years. In the three years since Ah Yu's death, Ye Yuantai has been extremely depressed and miserable.
Even when you sleep, you feel like your heart is being cramped. Countless midnight dreams, he woke up in nightmares.
Demons too...... Vampires or not......
If...... If that really exists......
"I ...... Want! β
He uttered the words in a trembling tone.
Ouyang Nian was stunned, not understanding what Ye Yuantai meant.
"Yuan Tai, what did you just say?"
"No, nothing ......"
Ye Yuantai smiled bitterly, feeling that he was really crazy.
In this world, how can there really be such a thing as reversing life and death.
It is precisely because life can be lost at any time that the preciousness of life is reflected.
Impossible...... It must have been his own auditory hallucinations.
It must be......
