Chapter 44: Migo
"At that time, many people questioned me, so I proved to them that those so-called rumors were almost indistinguishable from the common legends of the incarnation of nature, and it was precisely because of such legends that the ancient world was filled with the human head and the body of the sheep, the Faon tree, the Lin Xian, and the half-man, half-sheep Satyr ......"
Faust remembered a lot of things from the past, when he had not fully recovered his memory, and was full of resistance to all of them.
Tesla had given him a lot of information about it, and hinted at him intentionally or unintentionally, but he didn't know anything about it at the time, and he didn't get interested until the end.
"Tesla had given me a few pictures before, and I had a strange sense of fear at first glance, as if I was approaching something forbidden, most of them were rather blurry, but there was still a curse-like suggestive power, which was reinforced by the fact that these were real photos......" Faust sighed.
The car suddenly stopped while the two were chatting, Wang Feng pushed open the door and got out of the car, while Faust casually prevaricated a few words, as if he was in a hurry and left alone.
Wang Feng didn't say much, and he didn't know why Faust suddenly became inexplicable, he was very anxious just now, but now he ......
It was an unusual, unusual.
Wang Feng vaguely felt that he had ignored some important clues.
But Faust's anomaly is particularly wrong, what exactly does he want to do.
Wang Feng casually found a place where he could call, and then dialed Tesla's phone number.
"Hello? Who is it! ”
"Tesla?"
Hearing Wang Feng's voice, Tesla couldn't help but start to rejoice: "It seems that you have arrived in London safely...... Are you okay along the way? When I heard that you seemed to be missing, Henry Bacon and I were shocked. ”
"I'm sorry, I haven't been in touch with you before, and I met some things at the beginning......"
Wang Feng didn't tell Tesla what happened to him, anyway, those things have already been frightening, so there is no need to say it and make them worry.
"Good...... It's okay, then I'll be relieved. ”
"That's right...... You should know what happened during the Flood, right? ”
Wang Feng hesitated.
Tesla's tone on the phone suddenly became flustered: "Why do you suddenly ask such a thing?" ”
"Because something happened to me here, and Faust just ...... Leave me here and go alone......"
Wang Feng told Tesla what happened in Watertown, but Tesla never spoke.
"That's about it...... I wonder what the hell is going on? ”
“……”
"Tesla?"
"Ah...... I can hear that I should have the letter that Faust wrote to me about this, and I'll look it for you. ”
Wang Feng couldn't help but be overjoyed after hearing this: "Great." ”
After a while, Tesla asked Wang Feng, "Do you want me to tell you the content of this letter?" ”
"Hmmm! I'm sorry for you. ”
Faust's letter reads as follows:
The longer I look at those photographs, the more I am sure that the judgments of those stories, which have their own seriousness, are not unreasonable and useless, and question the evidence that these photographs are conclusive.
Those things are far beyond our usual knowledge and logical beliefs, and the most terrifying of them are photographs of footprints, taken on a sunlit path. Isn't this a cheap fake? I was sure at a glance that the clear lines of pebbles and blades of grass in the field of vision gave a definite proportion of the object, and there was no place for the trick of double exposure.
The traces I am talking about are footprints, in fact, it is more suitable to call them paw prints, even now, it is difficult for me to accurately describe it, I can only say that it is the mark left by some evil creature, and it is difficult to guess the direction of its progress, the traces are not shallow, and it is not just the size of the footprints of ordinary people, from the central landing point several pairs of arthropods extend in two directions, if this thing is just a habit of movement, then its specific function is really confusing.
Another photograph appears to have been taken in the dark with a long exposure, showing a cave in the forest, with a bare ground in front of the cave blocked by regular-shaped round boulders, barely making out strange traces of a dense net.
I looked closely at the photographs with a magnifying glass and was disturbed to see that they resembled the traces in the previous photo, and the third was a druid ring at the top of a barren hill with erected rocks.
The weeds around the mysterious ring were almost completely flattened and even polished, but even with a magnifying glass, I couldn't find any footprints, and the place was extremely remote and inhabited, like the mountains of the long snake forming the background of the picture, like a misty horizon.
If the most disturbing thing in these photographs is the footprints, the most incredible thing is the round black rock I found there.
As far as I can see, it's about a foot by two feet wide and high in an irregularly curved surface facing the camera vertically, and to describe its surface or overall shape in detail is really beyond the scope of words.
I can't even guess what strange geometry it was cut on, but there is no doubt that it was cut by hand, I have never seen anything more bizarre than it, he is undoubtedly not of this world, and as for the hieroglyphs on the surface of the delay, I can see only a few, but only one or two is enough to amaze me.
Of course, it's possible that they're fakes, because there must be someone else besides me who has read the Necronomicon.
Even so, I was creepy because I recognized certain hieroglyphs, and my knowledge reminded me of rumors of insulting gods and blood clotting of blood, of a crazy half-being before Earth and other planets in the solar system.
Of the remaining five photos, three are of swamps and mountains, which seem to be a bit eerie, with pathological creatures trailing, and the other is a strange trail on the ground, from which you can't draw any definitive conclusions, but he does have a hint of evil, like other traces and paw prints taken on Huanshan, and the last one is my friend's residence.
This neat white house has two floors, with an attic about 125 years old, and a beautifully manicured lawn with ten joisting paths leading to an elegantly carved gate lawn in the Georgian style.
Looking at these photos, I spent the remaining three hours almost immersed in an abyss of horror that is difficult to describe in words, and I didn't look closely at the things you told me.
My brain was dizzy and confused, and I had tried to explain everything with reason, but now I had come to believe that the most perverse and unacceptable whimsy, a series of key sentences, was in front of me, so hateful that it was hard for me to refute.
This incident had a huge impact on my thinking and judgment, and I can understand where that inner fear came from. Perhaps I was wading into danger, and I began to doubt my own experience and terrifying doubts.
Of course, we're almost certain that the monster is the same nightmare incarnation as the other rumors.
There was a voice echoing in my head all the time, but I still couldn't parse it accurately, I couldn't describe it vividly, he was like some kind of disgusting giant insect, clumsily mimicking human language with a buzzing sound, and I was pretty sure that the part of the sound that produced it bore no resemblance to the vocal organs of humans or any mammal.
This sound, whether it is timbre and interval, or Sanskrit sound, which completely separates people from the realm of human beings and life on earth, has a unique characteristic, and its appearance is so sudden that the first time I heard it, I almost fainted, and I heard it in the dizziness of the busyness, and the rest of it.
……
I think we should find a clue that leads to some of the most abominable primitive practices of the mysterious and ancient religions of man, and it is also obvious to us that the alien creatures are hidden from certain members of the human race, maintaining ancient and intricate alliances.
It is impossible to guess how widespread or permeated this alliance will be, and how it will change from the past, but this thread at least creates a space for us to speculate on the horrors of what seems to be some kind of terrifying ancient connection between humanity and nameless nothingness, divided into several definite stages.
This means that the evil monsters that appear on Earth come from dark planets at the edge of the solar system......
And this thing has reached the distance of Einstein's space-time, the continuum or the widest......
On the other hand, we're going to talk about the black rock and the ...... to keep it safe
"Many of the contents of this letter have been damaged...... I've forgotten what he's going to write...... However, I advise you not to ask about this matter, and leave the water city as soon as possible...... That's the way to go! ”
Tesla dissuaded Wang Feng from leaving Shuicheng quickly, and he also knew that the letter in his hand could not help Wang Feng, after all, this thing was more than ten years ago. And now everyone's situation is different.
Wang Feng felt that the content of the letter was more like a haphazard writing, and there was no logic at all...... And what he said seems to have something to do with what is happening now.
"Although this letter didn't help me much, I was able to guess something...... I just want to know what happened during the Flood, why don't you want to tell me? ”
He was very interested in the flood, but Tesla didn't seem to tell him about it.
Tesla was a little hesitant after hearing this: "It's not like I won't tell you this...... There's no way to tell you what happened at that time...... I guess Faust is a little confused right now......"
Wang Feng didn't say anything more, if the two continued to entangle like this, it was very likely that they would quarrel.
So he quickly opened the topic and talked about other things, and the two chatted for almost half an hour before hanging up the phone.
"What are you doing sitting here?"
When Wang Feng heard the voice, he was immediately overjoyed, and quickly turned his head to look behind him, it turned out to be Ruth.
He hurriedly stood up: "Just finished a phone call with a friend. ”
Ruth smiled slightly: "Girlfriend? ”
"No, no, no! Male ......"
Ruth looked suddenly enlightened and clapped her hands: "It turned out to be a boyfriend!" I didn't expect you kid to be okay with this, I really didn't misunderstand you. ”
Wang Feng knew that Ruth was joking with himself, so he didn't say much and quickly talked about the corpse: "About that corpse is a chrysalis of worms......
He told Ruth everything he knew about the corpse.
Ruth was also taken aback when she heard it: "There is still such a thing......"
She looked at Wang Feng's serious expression and naturally knew that he was definitely not joking with herself.
"When Faust and I went to look for you before...... See, there is a group of dead bodies floating on the surface of the sea...... No! It should be said that it is fatigue, and all the monsters inside have come out...... Faust says that these monsters are trying to infect the water. But don't drive away alone after leaving me behind
。 ”
Wang Feng thought that this was not a so-called secret, so he naturally told Ruth as well.
After hearing this, Ruth's face suddenly turned a lot whiter, and her expression became panicked.
"It's horrible!"
Wang Feng always felt that something was wrong with Ruth's panicked expression, but he didn't think much about it.
"Can you tell me? Where is your home address? I'll contact you next time...... Otherwise, you won't be able to find anyone at all......"
After hearing this, Ruth felt that there was some truth, and then took Wang Feng to the place where she lived.
The two walked all the way and chatted all the way, but most of it was about vampires and what had happened to each other in the past few days.
These things seem unremarkable, but there is a nightmare hidden in each of them.
After walking for about half an hour, the two of them came to a place of silence through the depths of the dense forest.
A small villa appeared in front of me, leaning against the sea.
"This is your home?"
Wang Feng looked at Ruth in surprise.
Ruth nodded, then took Wang Feng's hand and walked towards the villa.
Although the villa looks very down, the decoration inside is extremely luxurious, but it is not boring and gives people a very comfortable feeling.
The walls are filled with paintings, all of which are beautiful landscapes.
"If you're looking for me next time, come here to find me......"
Ruth said as she took Wang Feng to visit.
Although there are many rooms in the villa, most of them are filled with bookshelves, and the total number of books placed on the bookshelves is innumerable.
Wang Feng pulled out a very heavy and quaint book.
There are four big characters of Grimm's fairy tales written on it.
"I didn't expect you to like to read such fairy tales?"
Ruth shook her head and laughed, "It's not that I like to read fairy tales...... The books on these shelves are actually Grimm's ......fairy tales, but the Grimm's fairy tales here are not books for children...... Instead, it's full of all kinds of monsters...... I also dealt with those monsters based on what was written in the book. ”
"What do you mean?"
Wang Feng didn't understand a little.
"Green is not a person, but an organization...... This organization exists to maintain the balance of this world, and all the people in it are demon hunters...... Of course, I'm one of them, and we'll write about what happened to us in a book and put it on this shelf...... In the future, if someone becomes Grimm, they will accept our will and pass it on. These Grimm fairy tales are something that has been passed down through the generations, similar to an encyclopedia, which records all the types of monsters in the world and how to deal with them. ”
Ruth took out a book and handed it to Wang Feng, which was completely different from other books.
"That's what I wrote...... Each book represents a Grimm, and what they have worked hard all their lives on will be written on the book and will be used as a reference for future generations......"
She looked at the bookshelf: "I believe that sooner or later...... The world won't need us anymore......"
"I see...... The Naglin Brothers......"
"Those two guys are just our representatives, and what they wrote was actually a reflection of those monsters at first, but everyone took what they said as a fairy tale."
When Ruth said this, she couldn't help but sigh: "The saddest thing in this world is probably like this!" You are telling the truth, but others don't think so, and instead think that what you are telling is just a story...... The two of them used to be our best exorcists, but in your eyes they are the best writers. ”
Looking at the loss in Ruth's eyes, Wang Feng patted her shoulder and comforted: "But it's because of your existence that this world has become a better place, isn't it?" ”
"Alas!"
Ruth opened the book she had written, then pointed to a blank page: "Sooner or later, I will fill this book with ...... I don't know how long I'll last, and to be honest, I'm tired of this life......"
"And what kind of life do you want to live?"
"Me! I met someone I liked and lived with him until I got old......" Ruth kept looking at Wang Feng when she said this: "Of course, I know that this kind of life is impossible to achieve." ”
Wang Feng knew what Ruth meant and hurriedly retorted: "No! Who says it's impossible? ”
"Don't come and comfort me again...... There are countless monsters in this world...... And Green was left with me. ”
"You're the only one left, what about the others?"
Ruth paused, then put the book back on the shelf: "All dead...... I'm the only one left, still alive. ”
"I'm sorry ......"
Wang Feng knew that he had said the wrong thing, and he couldn't help but feel a little guilty in his heart.
"There's no need to say I'm sorry...... Sooner or later, I'll be like those people...... It's just that...... I don't know if Green will fall because of this......"
Ruth snapped her fingers, "Let's go, I'll take you somewhere else...... If you like it, stay for it...... You're one of Green's now. ”
"When am I?"
Before Wang Feng finished speaking, Ruth immediately covered Wang Feng's mouth and looked at Wang Feng with a wicked smile: "Didn't you say that you wanted to deal with vampires with me?" If you don't join Green, then don't talk about it. ”
