Chapter 16: Vampires
Li Shenfu scolded with a smile: "Your grandmother, do you still have the face to say? I forgot to tell you not to make a noise when you came in, because you were talking so loudly. Yesterday we did them man, they remembered your voice with me, and when they heard you talk, didn't they quickly turn into human form and smash you? ”
Hua Lianxue couldn't help but suddenly feel a little scared when she heard the voice. Thinking back to the fact that he had spoken loudly just now, the Brimstone Demon in the two rooms immediately reacted. Alas, things that could have been handled very easily were so dangerous that they almost lost their lives, damn it.
"What about after putting them in a sack?"
Li Shenfu smiled: "Just send it to the church and wash it away with holy water." Holy water can't destroy them when they're in human form, but it's fine when they're sulfur. ”
"Oh...."Hua Lianxue remembered silently.
The two of them waited for a while, but because the Brimstone Demon couldn't move at all, they chose to turn into sulfur, so they put all the sulfur into the sack according to the method of Li Shenfu, tied the mouth of the sack with a holy rope, moved it out and threw one in the trunk and one in the back seat, and then drove back to Luwu City. The most formal church in Luwu City is Shengze Church, and the holy water here is also the most powerful supernatural power, so it is best to use them to deal with the sulfur of the Brimstone Demon. The priest here is a native and one of the demon hunters.
"Pastor Guo."
It was early in the morning, and when the weather was getting cold, they drove to Shengze Church. The pastor Guo Lanhong here is very familiar with Divine Servant Li, so it is not unusual for him to come to the church so early. When he opened the door of his residence at the back of the church, he was greeted by Priest Lee.
"Servant of God." Guo Lanhong looked at the two sacks that Li Shenfu and Hua Lianxue were carrying, and couldn't help laughing: "What is it?" ”
Li Shenfu smiled: "Brimstone Demon." ”
Guo Lanhong nodded, asked them to come into the house and sit for a while, and then went in through the back door of the church to get a bucket of holy water. Servant Li opened the sack he was carrying and poured the sulfur into it. The sulfur flowed into the bucket of holy water, making a slight "sizzling" sound, but instead of settling, it emitted a very faint white smoke and then disappeared.
When both sacks of sulphur had been disposed of, they both breathed a sigh of relief. This matter is settled.
"Give your friend a call and let him look at the unit with peace of mind." Li Shenfu patted Hua Lianxue and smiled.
Hua Lianxue nodded, and inadvertently noticed that Guo Lanhong, who was sitting on the chair by the wall, had a somewhat strange expression: "Pastor Guo, what's wrong with you, your face is so bad?" ”
Although Guo Lanhong is a pastor, he also has a habit of smoking. He lit a cigarette and took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice: "Luwu City is in trouble, God servant, mercy snow." ”
As soon as his words came out, Li Shenfu's mind inexplicably connected his words with what Illusion Si Lun said yesterday, and he couldn't help but tremble, and said in horror: "What's wrong?" ”
"I'm not sure, so I've been wondering if I should tell you about this for the past two days." Guo Lanhong is in his 30s this year, much older than Li Shenfu, but although he is a demon hunter, he is also less experienced than Li Shenfu, which may also be due to the fact that he also has to take care of the priesthood, so he will often ask Li Shenfu for help when he encounters tricky things. He paused, then added, "I wish I had spotted a vampire." ”
Li Shenfu was shocked: "Vampire? ”
Hua Lianxue couldn't help but be stunned.
In the past half century, as more and more humans have joined the ranks of demon hunters, the life of vampires has become more and more miserable, and the number has also plummeted. In order to preserve the reproduction of the race, many years ago, their race leaders considered moving from a prosperous, economically developed city with many demon hunters to a third-tier city with a relatively backward economy and relatively few demon hunters. In recent years, there have been very few vampires in megacities like Luwu.
Since vampires are human and live in groups, it is also difficult to search for them.
Guo Lanhong groaned and said slowly: "I'm not sure. The night before, a devout believer who often came to the church to pray suddenly came to me in a panic, and through his narration, I realized that he often came to pray only because he often did some hurtful things and made all the money he wanted, just to comfort himself. But he also said that it was useless for him to pray a lot, and that he was still bad about retribution and met a madman. ”
"Crazy?" Li asked.
Guo Lanhong nodded: "He was looking for a woman to accompany him at night at the bar, but the woman he found bit him, and.... He looked at the wound on his neck, much like a vampire's mark. ”
"But if it's a vampire, how can he be allowed to come here alive?"
He said that when the woman bit him, the security guard patrolling the community happened to pass by, and he felt that the car he parked in the community was wrong, so he went over to look, and the woman let go when she saw someone coming, opened the car door and ran. Then he came straight to me and wondered if God was going to punish him. ”
Hua Lianxue, who had been in a nervous state, couldn't help but laugh when she heard this: "Do you still want to play car shock?" ”
Li Shenfu glared at him, with "Don't make trouble" written in his eyes, then pondered for a moment, and said slowly: "Pastor Guo, we teamed up to deal with a wave of vampires the year before last, do you want to think about whether the tooth marks left by the vampire we saw at the beginning are the same as those left on that person's body?" ”
"I was sweating when I saw it." Guo Lanhong smiled bitterly: "I almost lost my life when I dealt with those vampires the year before last, and as soon as I saw that trace, I immediately remembered the year before last." But... I'm really not sure. The vampires we saw the year before last had very thin, sharp, and deep tooth marks after sucking human blood, but what I saw the day before yesterday was very shallow, and there were no traces of fangs. ”
Vampires suck human blood by piercing a pair of fangs in the upper row of teeth that can appear or retract at any time, and sucking through the gaps in the fangs. So the teeth that vampires leave on the human flesh should be one pair, not two rows.
"No traces of fangs?" Divine Servant Li was a little puzzled.
Guo Lanhong nodded: "It's a pair of very flat tooth marks." ”
Li Shenfu fell into deep thought, and after a long time, he exhaled heavily and muttered, "Could it be a vampire who is still underage?" ”
Guo Lanhong's face turned iron-blue, gritted his teeth fiercely, and said coldly: "Maybe." Anyway, if it's really the vampires who come to Green, then it's troublesome. ”
A minor vampire does not refer to his or her age, but rather to the time when he or she becomes a vampire. Vampires themselves are infertile, they increase the number of races, and can bite people to infect the genes of ordinary humans, making them mutate into vampires, but not every human who is bitten will mutate into vampires, with a chance of about 39%.
"What about the person who was bitten?" Li Shenfu thought to himself that he still cared about the problem at hand. If it's really a vampire, there's a chance that the person being bitten could become the next vampire.
Guo Lanhong looked guilty and said with a wry smile: "I was worried that he would change, so I temporarily locked him in the basement." ”
The basement is in the lobby of the church, and it is the place where Guo Lanhong stores the equipment to deal with the evil supernatural lifeforms, which is very secretive.
Li Shenfu understood the look on his face, patted him heavily, showed a look of understanding and support, and said, "This is also for his good, and you don't have to blame yourself." He paused for a moment, and said with some concern: "It's just that the time for everyone to mutate into a vampire is not certain." ”
This is also where Guo Lanhong has a headache. Now it's not sure if it's a vampire or not, but if so, what if that person doesn't mutate into a vampire after half a month or even a year? If not, they don't dare to be sure.
"So what do we do?" Hua Lianxue couldn't help but ask.
Li Shenfu thought for a while and sighed, "Pastor Guo, I think it's better to take a look at that person first. ”
"Okay."
