51. Firewood, rice, oil, and salt

I got rid of this illusion, this... Memory, Legang, Michael, and me, like me, all seem to have just woken up from a nightmare.

I said, "That's not right.... Three sisters.... The three sisters aren't goddesses of Ix, they're just.... In order to seal away some evil that had polluted the altar of Icks.... Sacrifice yourself. ”

Now, the three Ixes sisters have disappeared, but what about the evil? Where is the evil?

Michael walked over to the Evil Idol and held them in his arms. I was nervous, afraid that a demon would take possession of Michael, and that would be the end of everything.

Helsin hugged Yaochi tightly, she was getting old again, and she was even weaker, Helsin shook her hand and sighed, "I shouldn't let you come here." ”

Yao Chi smiled, "Don't worry, it's good for me." ”

Michael said, "Ma'am, now on this statue..."

Yao Chi said: "I can no longer feel evil, except for the bloody stories of its history, this statue is no longer in danger." ”

"This is the most important moment in my life, one of the most brilliant treasures in the history of our bloodline," Michael exclaimed. I thank each and every one of you! Ms. Yaochi, you are the one who makes this collection safe! Legang, it is you, as a friend, who have supported me to this point! Master Helsing, you are not stubborn, let your lady help me! Beira.... Where is she? Never mind! Finally, it is you, fishbone Longinus, my loyal and great friend, to whom you deserve the most credit! ”

I could have taken the opportunity to ask for another reward, but I knew it was futile, and the memories of the three sisters were so gloomy that I said, "Are you sure you're okay?" But you also see that memory..."

Michael said, "Lady Yaochi is the absolute authority, and I believe that her judgment will not be wrong, the three sisters are the last curse on this statue, and now, this treasure has been completely cleaned." ”

He snapped his fingers, and Jean Salem popped up out of nowhere, holding a gift box in his hand, and smiled: "Please accept the small gift I have prepared for you, my dear Longinus, for this is another proof of our friendship." ”

I am now full of strong acid, pits and pits on the skin, if not treated early, most of the life is short, but the appearance of the gift box hung me a breath of vitality, I can't wait to open the gift box, inside are two keys, a real estate certificate.

"As you know," said Michael, "I have the authority to manage the neighborhood where you live, and it so happened that there was a tenant on the thirty-third floor who had been evicted to the lower floor because he had defaulted on his rent, and I took the initiative to allocate it to you. ”

I was holding the gift box, dumbfounded, I felt my blood rush into my brain, and then, my eyes went black, and I didn't know anything.

I got better at the Ranger Military Hospital, and the poisonous blood burns have been healed, and most of them have healed, they say that there will be some scars, but no scars are not cured by the blood of the blood clan.

Michael kept the box for me, and when he visited me, he handed it over to me.

I put my arms around him so hard, and spoke so gratefully, that Michael doubted my orientation, and what struck me most was that he seemed to be enjoying it, which made me hurry away from him and send him away.

I should have given the house to El Salvador, but I decided to wait. What are you waiting for? I don't know, I just want to wait.

I looked at the certificate over and over again, and the more I looked at it, the more pleasing it became, at least more pleasing to the eye than the three ghostly gods, and alas, why should I bother with this or that? Didn't Lamia say that? The most important thing is to live happily.

When Waste Clock and Solace came to visit, I asked them to keep the gift box for me.

Strangely, I didn't see Lamia, and the nurse told me she had come in the morning, but left in a hurry. It wasn't until late afternoon that Lamia came.

I asked, "Where have you been?" ”

Lamia looked haggard and smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry, I saw that you were okay, I went to El Salvador." ”

I asked, "Salvador, what's wrong with him?" ”

"He tried to shoot himself," Lamia said. ”

I sat up like a fried fish, and asked, "Is he still alive?" ”

Lamia sighed, "Yes, the bullet hit him right in the temple, but his transformation and the recently refined telekinesis blade accidentally protected him from a serious wound in the head, and he saved his life." ”

I said angrily, "What is he doing? Didn't I borrow money from him? I thought he had a lot of backbone...."

"It has nothing to do with you not borrowing money, yesterday he saw Betty dining in the dining room with another Ranger lieutenant colonel from the laboratory," Lamia said. ”

I asked, "Yesterday?" I was talking to El Salvador last night...."

Lamia shook her head and said, "You've been in a coma for two whole days, and no one told you?" ”

I was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Dining doesn't mean anything, I'm still dining with Betty's mother all day, could it be that Betty's father is also going to kill himself?" ”

Lamia smiled bitterly: "Don't play tricks, they are dining alone, yes.... Appointment. ”

I fell silent.

"Sami tried to take Betty away from the lieutenant colonel, Betty broke up with Sammy on the spot, she said a lot of nasty things, the engagement was cancelled, Sammy proposed a duel to the lieutenant colonel, but he defeated him," Lamia said. ”

I said, "Divorce stream? ”

Lamia asked, "What is the divorce stream?" ”

I said, "It seems like the term of the last century, don't you mind, I always feel that Betty will be slapped in the face in the future." ”

Lamia said: "All in all, he escaped death, you have to persuade him, after all, I am a woman, and the person he respects the most is still you." ”

I said, "It's so easy, I'm going to beat the lieutenant colonel and on his head..."

Lamia hurriedly said, "Don't be so disgusting. ”

I said, "It's just a metaphor, I'm a civilized person, and you're not ignorant." ”

Lamia sneered, "You're always talking weird, so get me serious now." She thought for a moment, and then said, "That lieutenant colonel is a loyal servant of one of the elders under Lady Tifeng, and it is said that the future is bright, so it is not appropriate to exacerbate the conflict." ”

Faithful servant means... This man drank the blood of a certain Bloodline and became the exclusive ghoul. And the bright future means that this person is likely to be promoted to the ranks of the blood clan in the future, if he marries Betty, won't Betty also become a blood clan in the future? If this is the case, what will El Salvador do in the face in the future?

I forced myself to get out of bed and said, "I'm going to enlighten Sammy, and we're going to kick Betty's family out of the house tonight." ”

Lamia said, "They have already moved to the 40th floor overnight, without me rushing. ”

I shouted, "What? Say move in, you have paid the rent for more than ten years, and they haven't paid a dime, don't you ask them to get it back? "For more than ten years, that's a huge amount of nearly 10 million credits, not counting water and electricity bills.

Lamia shook her head and said, "Forget it, don't worry about it." ”

I asked, "Forty floors.... Is it the lieutenant colonel's house? ”

Lamia said, "Isn't it? ”

I can't figure it out - Betty is indeed beautiful, but she is not a national beauty, her position in the army is only a sergeant, and she is not outstanding, so how can a lieutenant colonel be fascinated by her?

Perhaps this can be attributed to love, which is incomprehensible. But what is certain is that Betty and the lieutenant colonel have been eyebrows for a long time.

It's a shame I won't be able to get to Betty's mother's family dinner tonight, and I might be able to sneak up to their house.....

At this time, a neatly uniformed colonel led the men into the ward and said, "Colonel Lamia, Lieutenant Colonel Longinus, according to the notice from my superiors, please come with me to the Council of Elders." ”

I was dizzy for a moment and asked, "Long... Presbyterians? It's in...."

The colonel said, "It's above the ninety floors." ”

Lamia was also excited, and said, "But.... It was so glorious that I was unprepared. ”

The colonel said, "I was also given a temporary notice, you can only wear military uniforms, please hurry, the elders don't want to wait longer." ”

The Council of Elders, in addition to the Big Three, the other three are the core of power in the black coffin, the pinnacle of power, they are undoubtedly all blood clans, and they are extremely ancient, intimidating bloodthirsty nobles, these six dukes are intriguing with each other, and they are all in a row, their heirs, and the chess pieces used by them, in the black coffin staged a drama of betrayal and union again and again.

We took a special elevator, passed through the layers of checkpoints, after body search and disinfection, we reached the ninety floor, here, five floors and one floor, became an extremely tall and vast space, the golden light above the head illuminated the whole floor, I saw the blue grass, thousands of purple flowers, a castle like the White House, six red curtains hanging from the roof like a waterfall, just touching the ground, still. It gives people a sense of solemnity, but the huge curtain reflects the red light, which dyes the whole building in bright red colors, and adds a sense of cruelty and judgment.

As we approached the castle, a couple of moose ran up to me, and I exclaimed, "So they kept you here!" ”

The colonel said: "They are kept at the expense of the Marquis of Lesteel. ”

They spoiled me for a moment, and the Colonel urged us not to annoy the Elders, and we continued on our way, walking through the extravagant and heart-stopping corridors into the conference room resembling the palace chamber, a court-like structure, with six consuls sitting behind a high platform, and below it rows of comfortable tables and chairs sat the blood and loyal servants (ghouls) whom the elders were to summon.

Missouri Tiado, Tiphon, and Mai Zon sat in the center.

In addition to these triumvirate, there is also a long-haired black blood clan, with handsome facial features, a short beard, and a bearing like the emperor of the ancient empire of the Americas, it is said that his name is Maxwell, and he is of the same blood as Tiado and Tiphon, and his strength is feared.

To the right of Mai Zong, sat an old man with lowered eyes and a smile on his face, his hair was still half black and half white, but he gave people an extremely old and strange impression, I heard that his name was Norris, and he had a good relationship with Mai Zong, and was good at creepy spells.

A bald-headed man sat beside Tiphon, he looked like a man of great courage, but his eyes shone with piety and fanaticism, like an obsessive monk or priest, one could not help but wonder if he would often tie people to a pillar of fire and burn them alive, he was a priest Bochi, who spared no effort to promote his religion in a black coffin.
