Chapter 8: The Devil's Messenger

Dong Scorpion's gaze swept over Gao Ying, Qin Yexun, and Jack, just now they didn't know what they were whispering, he only vaguely heard the classroom, and ...... The word ghost.

But...... None of this matters to him. Now this strange phenomenon has made him start to have some associations.

It's definitely not someone breaking from jail, something must have happened......

"Something of supernature......

This was the only thing that Dong Scorpion thought of.

Dong Scorpion remembers...... It was when he was about 4 or 5 years old that he first learned that "death" was an irreversible concept. Although he had known about death for a long time, he thought that as long as he was not mortally injured or terminally ill, he would not die, but human life is limited, and once the limit comes, no one can be spared. This is the inevitable law of biological evolution, and when he heard this, he even cried bitterly, he was afraid that he would die, and at the same time hugged his mother...... For the day will come when Mother and Father will leave him.

In China, death is a taboo word, and adults rarely explain the concept of death to children in the Enlightenment period, after all, it is difficult for even adults to face death calmly, let alone children. But Dong Scorpion's parents were both people who grew up in Western society, and they were not shy about death.

"Human medicine is so advanced, and life expectancy is getting longer and longer, why can't there be no way to achieve immortality???

Dong Scorpion once asked his parents like that. He naturally knew that death was an unavoidable natural law for every living individual, and that only death could make way for new life. However, every living individual is irreplaceable, and Dong Scorpion does not understand why individuals cannot have eternal life?

At that time, both my father and mother shook their heads, saying that even if human research on genetics was just beginning, it was still impossible to figure out which diseases corresponded to which gene loci, and it was naturally impossible to survive forever. Even his mother would take the trouble to explain to him, such as the limit of cell division, the biology of aging, etc., and would never fool him just because he was a child.

"But...... The body has limits, but the soul is different......"

Eventually, his mother told him about it.

"Scorpion, in this world, after death...... There is a soul. So death is not the end of everything......"

Dong Scorpion suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Gao Ying. Before the latter could react, he was pulled somewhere to no one.

"What the hell are you ...... Who is it??? ”

Dong Scorpion stared at Gao Ying with a scrutinizing gaze.

The others noticed that Dong Scorpion pulled Gao Ying away, and they were all a little puzzled. Jack wanted to follow along, but he felt ...... If he followed, Dong Scorpion might not say anything. And Qin Yexun is just watching.

"I ...... It's just a prisoner ......" Gao Ying naturally couldn't tell the truth, and Dong Scorpion wouldn't believe it anyway.

Dong Scorpion stared at him deadly, and then said something that made Gao Ying creepy.

"Do you want eternal life? Are you willing to do that...... At what cost? ”

No matter how much Gao Ying has a furrow in his chest, it is difficult to suppress the horror in his heart at this time!

And his shocked expression was naturally completely seen by Dong Scorpion.

"I heard you talk about 'classrooms' and ...... 'ghosts'! You are indeed the messengers of the devil! ”

Dong Scorpion then took a few steps back, showed a slight sneer, and said, "You and the 'Black Shadow Sect' are also the same dog. In order to obtain eternal immortal life, the soul was sold to the devil. ”

Gao Ying's reaction was very fast, and he immediately denied it: "What nonsense are you talking about, what a devil, immortal ......"

However, Dong Scorpion waved his hand and said, "You don't have to deny it, Gao Ying. Even if you were the messenger of the devil, I would not be able to do anything to you right now. And ......"

When he said the word "and", he glanced down at his prison uniform: "I don't have any position to accuse you, Gao Ying." ”

(He knows more than I thought, and it seems that maybe it's up to this guy to get Agnes into Death!) However, at the moment it cannot be recognized as a 'messenger of the devil', believe it or not! )

"I really don't know what you're talking about......" Gao Ying made an annoyed expression, pushed him away, and was about to leave when Dong Scorpion grabbed Gao Ying's right arm!

He said with a very solemn expression, "You're here to pick up the witch of the Gez Warren family, right?" Okay, I can help you, but ...... I have the conditions, take me to that 'classroom'! ”

The words are not shocking, Gao Ying never thought that Dong Scorpion would say this!

"I don't care anymore, even if I go to hell after death and am cursed by God, I don't care! I put my soul ...... Give it to the devil too! ”

Gao Ying stretched out his hand to break free of him, and continued to shake his head: "I don't understand what you're saying!" ”

Dong Scorpion stared at Gao Ying, and he became more and more sure of his judgment.

Even now, he remembers the first time he was taken by his uncle and mother to visit Count Gomynik. At that time, his mother took him to see Werwin, and at that time...... Because he and Wilvan are about the same age, it's time for the adults to talk about things. He and Wilwin were playing puzzles together. He was shocked to find that Vilvin's talent was amazing, and he had completed all such a complex puzzle in just five minutes, and Dong Scorpion was just helping to deliver the puzzles......

A day later, his mother and uncle informed him that he would live in the Gominik family and that his mother and father would go back to China. During this time, Count Gomynik will take care of him. At that time, he would never have dreamed that this would become a farewell between himself and his mother.

He still remembers everything about that day even now, his mother's haggard eyes, his uncle's worried expression, and the unashamed Count Gomynik......

At that time, because he felt that it was impossible to make any progress in playing puzzles, he once eavesdropped on the conversation between the earl and his mother and uncle.

"Please rest assured. I'll take care of the kid, according to Chinese words...... It's just like you're out of it. ”

"Thank you, Count, God will bless you." It was the mother's slightly sobbing voice, but Dong Scorpion didn't know why her mother was crying.

After that day, his name was changed to Skoben Gomynik, and he became the adopted son of Count Gomynik.

Later, he learned that his mother had sent him to the Gominik family, which was already regarded as a child. Because she believes that only the Gominik family can protect herself.

The Count had not lied, he did treat himself as his own, and he and the Countess treated himself no differently than his own son, Villewyn. Although the family has a strict family education, it has indeed become Dong Scorpion's second home.

……

"I'm sorry...... Earl ......"

Although the Earl became his adoptive father after that day, Dong Scorpion never had the ability to call him his father. No matter how good the counts were to him, he knew that he was just an outsider.

"Save ...... Help me! ”

What interrupted Dong Scorpion's thoughts was a prisoner who ran in from the passage on the other side of the prison!

This prisoner was not a candidate, as can be seen from the fact that he was fifty years old!

Gao Ying looked at the prisoner who ran in, and hurriedly ran up, only to see that his face was pale, bloodless, and sweating profusely. And Gao Ying immediately asked: What happened! ”

Jack and Qin Yexun also walked up, and they naturally wanted to get first-hand information from these prisoners. Maybe he can make a multiple-choice question with a single word!

"I ...... I ...... "The prisoner seems to have run so fast that he was out of breath and couldn't say a complete sentence for a while!"

Apparently impatient, Jack ran up and grabbed the prisoner by the shoulders and said, "What's the matter, what has happened to you?" ”

The prisoner pointed to the other side of the passage and said with a terrified expression, "Karen, Karen, he was ...... ......"

Suddenly, the lights in the prison area went out!

It wasn't long before the lights came on again.

In between, it's probably only two or three seconds.

But...... The middle-aged prisoner has disappeared and disappeared!
