CHAPTER XIV

I thought that this night would be very unpeaceful, but to Lin Li's expectations, nothing appeared this night except for the strange sound of scratching the door, when the sun sprinkled the entire castle, the dwarf carrying the horse lantern last night appeared again, this time the dwarf did not carry the horse lantern, but held a tray, on the tray put some towels, he knocked on the door one by one to send these towels made of coarse cloth.

"Guest, here's your towel, hot water etc will be delivered later. Also, yesterday we hunted a few deer and two fat boars, and the generous Miss Kelaman will use these games to hold a free bonfire dinner tonight, where the castle will not only provide ales to enjoy to your heart's content, but also dig out a few barrels of precious wine for your guests to taste. The coarse cloth towel was handed over with a faint fragrance, this towel was even specially smoked with incense, Lin Li didn't know about medieval Europe, but he also knew that at that time, materials were extremely scarce, and even some low-ranking nobles would personally work in the fields to make a living. The timeline of the rise of the wolf clan in the legend of the night is similar to that of medieval Europe, and the general environment here should be similar, and if an ancient castle actually provides such good treatment to passing guests, then their plan will probably not be small.

"Of course, Miss Kalaman is so generous, then I should be respectful and obey!" Lin Li smiled slightly and nodded, his expression didn't seem to see anything unusual here. If Lin Li was the only one in this strange castle, then he would definitely find a way to leave, but there were two other veterans in the same area here, in this case, Lin Li chose to wait and see, if the two veterans left, he would also follow them, if the two veterans did not leave, he would also stay here, the strength of the three people must be stronger than one person.

When the sun rose completely, the golden sunlight brought some warm tones to the castle, and this sunlight also made the castle fade away from the cold and vibrant at night, Lin Li looked around, there was a winding road in the forest on the side of the castle that disappeared into the dense forest, it seemed that those merchants came here through this road, they rested here to get some supplies, and then continued to move through the dangerous forest, bringing goods to other corners of this world.

Lin Li casually walked around the castle and found that in addition to the places where their guests lived, almost all the other areas of the castle were covered with layers of thick dust, crawling with all kinds of cobwebs, and these places had a strong smell of mold, and it seemed that not only was it uninhabited but it had not been used for a long time. Lin Li's eyes flashed with a hint of thought, could it be that there were not many people living in this ancient castle at all? So who did all the work of cleaning the room and hunting, and it was impossible for such a large castle to be maintained by a woman and a dwarf.

"Lin, do you need me to show you around the castle? It has been more than a thousand years since the castle was built by his first owner, and there is hardly a second castle this old in the vicinity! "Under the sun, Lin Li soon met an 'acquaintance', the owner of the castle, Kailaman, bathed in the sun, Kailaman's pale skin revealed a faint ivory feeling, she was not a vampire, Lin Li was sure of this again. In the Tales of the Night movie, no vampire can walk in the sun, not even Marcus, the son of the original vampire Alexander.

"Of course, it's my pleasure!" Lin Li smiled and nodded and stood side by side with Kailaman, Kelaman has a slender figure and a rare delicacy in his face, most of the faces of Westerners tend to be rough and not as delicate as the faces of Easterners, but Kailaman is the opposite, she seems to combine the advantages of Eastern and Western people. Following Kailaman to visit the castle, the two chatted about some nonsense, and from an angle that Kailaman couldn't see, Lin Li smiled silently and pretended to ask casually, "Miss Kailaman, is the first owner of this castle named Alexander?" ”…,

"Yes, that's why it's called Alexandria Castle!" Kailaman looked up at the sun, Lin Li looked up like her, and immediately felt a discomfort in her eyes, but looking at Kailaman, she didn't seem to be at all unusual when she looked directly at the sun. Lin Li looked at Kailaman's appearance and suddenly moved in her heart, she looked at the sun like this, and seemed to be a little hostile and dissatisfied with the sun. Where does such sentiment come from? Lin Li put a question mark in her heart, she is not a vampire, why would she be dissatisfied with the sun?

"Alexander!" Lin Li paused slightly, and then asked, "So where is Alexander, the first owner of the castle, now?" ”

Turning his head, Kailaman sapphire-like eyes stared at Lin Li for a moment. At this moment, Lin Li suddenly had a feeling of being targeted by some kind of ancient creature, this was not a kind of suppression of strength, but the result of the precipitation of knowledge and wisdom and some other things based on a long life. Lin Li suddenly had a crazy thought, the person in front of him was Alexander, the first immortal in this world, the true ancestor of the two races. However, Alexander is not a woman, and in the legend of the Night, Alexander was eventually killed by Marcus, and although Lin Li does not remember what he looked like, he can distinguish between his men and women, unless he has been to Thailand. If you think about it this way, the Miss Kalaman in front of you may not be a man in the future.

The change in Lin Li's eyes was keenly noticed by Kailaman, and she smiled silently, like a delicate flower in full bloom. "No one can stand on the side of time forever, not even vampires will eventually be buried by time. Alexander was just an ordinary man, he had disappeared into time a long time ago. Alright, Lin, go around yourself, I have to go and prepare for the evening banquet!" ”

The faint fragrant breeze disappeared in an instant, Lin Li looked at the place where Kailaman disappeared and stood for a while, not far away, Sean and Johnson looked at this side coldly, Lin Li turned around and saw that the ugly old man was standing in the shadows to persuade a few businessmen who wanted to leave to stay. It seems that not everyone is stupid for these merchants who go south and north, someone should have seen the abnormality of this ancient castle, but Lin Li glanced at it and saw that most of the merchants who wanted to leave were not far apart, they probably felt that there were many people in the ancient castle, even if something happened, they were not afraid, and greed made them not resolute in their attitude towards leaving.

The day passed quickly, the sun faded below the horizon, and once the warm sunlight dissipated, the castle regained its cold feeling. When the last rays of sunlight disappeared below the horizon, a little light appeared from the castle, and some of the people who did not appear in the castle during the day appeared with torches. The thin, pale-skinned men carried bundles of wood from the corners of the castle with torches and piled them in the open space in the middle of the castle, then rolled out barrels of wine, pulled out a few deer and two fat boars, and began to prepare the dinner. Seeing the wine and meat appear, most of the merchants showed excited looks, and some wanted to help, but were persuaded to enter the tavern, and the atmosphere in the tavern became warm again.

Lin Li crossed his arms and watched coldly at these strange 'dry corpses' who did not enter the tavern, perhaps being greeted by Kailaman, and the ugly dwarf did not come to persuade Lin Li to leave. In the open space of the castle, those busy 'dry corpses' completely ignored Lin Li's existence, and they pulled the few living animals into the middle of the clearing.

Feeling death, several deer and two pigs struggled frantically, and a strong boar with long fangs tore the rope violently, bowed its head and rushed towards the castle gate. Behind the boar, a 'dry corpse' howled excitedly, and pounced on the boar with his hands and feet.

The 'dry corpse' pounced on the boar's body, and raised a sharp knife more than a foot long, the sharp knife reflected a chilling cold light in the moonlight, and the 'pounce' sharp knife tore through the thick black fur of the boar, penetrated its fat muscles, and plunged deeply into its neck, a stream of blood sword splashed high, and bright red blood beads sprayed on the face of the 'dry corpse', and the 'dry corpse' stretched out its rough tongue and immediately licked the blood. …,

'Pop' Just when the 'dry corpse' was about to lose its true nature and reveal its true face, a whip tore through the air and fell violently on its body, the whip drew a blood mark on the 'dry corpse', and the 'dry corpse' rolled down from the boar with a wail, and looked at the old dwarf who was retracting the whip with a frightened gaze.

The vitality of the pig is very tenacious, especially the boar, with a deep knife in its neck, without the control of the 'dry corpse', the boar broke up and continued to rush forward, it moved the knife and tore some flesh again, and the fountain of blood left along its neck, leaving dark red blood marks on the ground. The 'dry corpse' howled again, and pounced again, this time its movements were very clean, grabbing the knife inserted in the boar's neck and pulling it hard, the sharp knife cut off the boar's throat and neck, and turned half a circle around the boar's head, this time the boar with strong vitality fell to the ground and finally lost its breath. The 'dry corpse' killed the boar, and dragged the boar's corpse back to the center of the castle clearing.

Soon, the boar and the deer were turned into corpses, and one by one the corpses were cut open and disintegrated and grilled over a campfire, and soon the rich smell of meat spread through the castle, and the dinner party began on this eerie night. Lin Li's eyes flickered in the dark, since these 'dry corpses' had appeared in the castle without any scruples, then the things hidden behind the castle should appear soon, and the time to come is finally coming.
