Chapter Seventy-Two: The Soul Burning Candle
The voice in the darkness seemed to be silent for a long time, and the little white wolf didn't know when it came to Tang Yichuan's feet, and it rubbed Tang Yichuan's leg twice, as if it had something to say.
After a long time, the woman let out a long sigh, and then slowly spoke: "It's Qin Lei who said it, I'm Julie." Does he know about me? ”
"He knows, but he doesn't want to believe it!" Tang Yichuan said, "It seems that you are really already the ancestor of the people, what are you going to do now?" Will it help the first ancestors, or will it be on our side? It looks like you still have your own consciousness, and it's up to you to choose. ”
"Ahh ”
At this moment, the little white wolf at Tang Yichuan's feet rubbed on his leg again and again, Tang Yichuan finally lowered his head and noticed the little white wolf, the little white wolf turned his head to look at the side, it walked in front of one of the seven doors, and then looked up at the door, his eyes shining, as if there was something inside the door.
Seeing the expression of the little white wolf, Tang Yichuan suddenly understood something, and while talking to Julie, he walked in the direction of the little white wolf, "Why don't you have a choice, your consciousness is very clear, it's not that you have been accused, right?" ”
"What's the use of being conscious, I have a contract with it after all, and our ancestors have been its slaves for generations!" Julie sighed, her voice full of sorrow. There is endless sorrow to tell.
"If I'm right, the paintings on the walls of the castle are you, and you've not been human since then, have you?" Tang Yichuan's hand had already been wiped on a door, he suddenly pushed the door, and at the moment when the door was opened, he saw a figure flashing inside, but it was soon gone, the fast one was like a lightning, just bright. It's not bright yet. It's gone.
The little white wolf whined, and then chased frantically ahead.
Tang Yichuan also chased forward at a very fast speed.
"Julie, why are you running so fast?" Tang Yichuan shouted as he ran, and the little white wolf just now identified the direction where Julie was from the direction from which Julie's voice came. And this direction is probably where the ancestors were.
From Julie's words and deeds. Tang Yichuan had probably guessed some of the outline of the matter. The ancient legends here may not be groundless, the owners of the castle are indeed feeding the vampires, and they are still feeding the ancestors of the vampires. And because of feeding the ancestors. The people of this castle have gradually been transformed into monsters like vampires, and Julie should be it.
Tang Yichuan didn't know what kind of agreement the owner of the castle had with the ancestor, but it could be seen that Julie may not have followed the ancestor voluntarily, or that she had been voluntary, but after meeting Qin Lei, she changed her concept because of love.
The figure of the white wolf flickered in the dark, Tang Yichuan chased after him, and there was a strange aura in front of him. After passing through a long, dark aisle, there was a dim yellow glow, and on both sides of the wall, there was a dim light, the glow of some yellowed candles.
These candles are very weird, they seem to have been burned a lot, but there is still a person tall, a person is so thick, the candle tears are wrapped around the body of the candle, making the candle seem to be wearing a dress, and the flame of the candle is forming the shape of a strange woman.
Tang Yichuan's steps slowed down, he knew that he was close to the ancestor, and he looked at these weird candles as he walked. The more he looked at it, the more he shuddered, as if he could hear the sound of the candle screaming, and it seemed that there were many unjust souls trapped in the candle, and they were wailing in pain.
Tang Yichuan was stunned for a moment, it was not an illusion, it was really a soul trapped in the candle, and he clearly saw that the humanoid shadow in the candle was struggling frantically!
The white wolf whimpered, and it seemed to cry out for these unjust souls.
These candles turned out to be made of human oil! The ancestors lived here, and it absorbed the energy that burned the soul of man!
Tang Yichuan realized how terrible and cruel this ancestor was, he saw the illusion of women on these candles, women of all ages, all kinds of beautiful women, they all became a candle!
Maybe there is also the wife of the ghost eye, no wonder the ghost eye hates the ancestor so much, who can bear to let his wife become a candle, and in the end even the soul is burned clean!
The pace was much slower, Tang Yichuan listened to the cries of these women, and he told them that when he solved the ancestors, he would come back to rescue them, and he would definitely not let them continue to die here.
After finishing speaking, Tang Yichuan's steps quickened, and the white wolf in front of him also began to run wildly. A wolf and a person, one in front of one and one behind, flickered in the aisle, rolling up a gust of wind, blowing the light of the candle flickering.
Tang Yichuan finally caught up with Julie, who stopped at a circular stone doorway, and the walls on both sides of the stone gate were full of oval mission portraits, each of which featured a woman, and she herself was on top of the portrait, the last portrait in this row.
Julie looked up at her portrait and wrote a few words underneath, Five hundred years, which means that she will serve her ancestors for five hundred years. This is a rule passed down from their ancestors, and she doesn't even know when this rule originated or why she wants to serve the ancestors, but she has always followed it.
Because the ancestors said that if they did not serve the ancestors, they would be unfilial, and if they did not serve the ancestors, their family would perish, and even extremely terrible things would happen, so Julie did not dare to disobey the ancestral rules.
She is actually not afraid of her own death, nor is she afraid of the destruction of her family, what she is afraid of is that something will happen to her most beloved man, which is the most terrible curse for her. As long as she served the Ancestor with all her heart, she believed that she could control the Ancestor, at least without posing some kind of threat to the people she loved.
It's just that after all, it was the East Window Incident, she can no longer control the ancestor, and she can no longer live in such a secret, her whereabouts are known, her secret will also be known by everyone, and the chaser of the ancestor has also appeared.
It was time for her to choose, she could choose to follow the Ancestor and continue to serve, or she could choose to deal with the Ancestor and suffer the curse.
"This is you." Tang Yichuan looked at the last painting on the wall and said, "When?" ”
"A hundred years ago." Julie said.
"It says five hundred, which means that you will serve the ancestors for five hundred years? So the ones in front of you and you are all members of your family? They also served their ancestors for 500 years? Tang Yichuan asked.
Julie didn't answer Tang Yichuan's words, she didn't hide from Tang Yichuan, and she didn't say what choice she made.
Tang Yichuan looked carefully at the people on the wall, the people there were all women, and they were all young and beautiful, and they looked very similar to Julie, and they should be Julie's family.
Tang Yichuan stood quietly beside Julie, he didn't speak all the time, he was just waiting for Julie's answer, he knew that Julie had been shaken.
After a long time, Tang Yichuan slowly spoke: "How is it, how are you thinking about it?" ”
"Do you know I'm thinking about it?" Julie turned her head to look at Tang Yichuan, she didn't look like that kind of sad person, she had a playful smile on her face, no wonder Qin Lei had a soft spot for her, Julie was indeed a very beautiful woman.
"Aren't you thinking, what are you doing, aren't you waiting for me to come?" Tang Yichuan looked at Julie and said, "How is it, how are you thinking about it?" You know you're not doing a good thing, but you're still doing what you're going to do. ”
Julie was still hesitating, she didn't know what the right choice was, she was still a little scared.
"You should make the right choice." Tang Yichuan said that he glanced at Julie twice, in fact, Julie's condition was much better than she imagined, and he thought that Julie had already lost her mind.
After glancing at Tang Yichuan twice, Julie's hand felt for a long time on the round door, and after a while, Julie's door was opened.
"Go in, the Ancestor is inside." Julie glanced at Tang Yichuan and said, "I want to go see Qin Lei." ”
"Okay." Tang Yichuan nodded slightly, "I think Qin Lei also wants to see you, you can go and see him." ”
Tang Yichuan and the little white wolf rushed into the door together, and there was a fishy smell in his face, Tang Yichuan raised the sword in his hand, he looked coldly at the one inside, there are many coffins here, the weird coffins form a weird formation, and inside the coffin, there is some blood.
The little white wolf roared in front of him, making a terrifying sound, and he couldn't stop whining.
Looking ahead, Tang Yichuan saw a few more human candles, in the middle of the candles, there were many strange women, these women were all dead, they seemed to have been made into dolls one by one, wearing beautiful skirts, like works of art, and like weird things, which made people shudder, they seemed to have descended to hell.
On the walls, there are strange patterns everywhere, blood is pouring down from above, and the whole wall is very weird.
After Tang Yichuan looked at it for a long time, he continued to walk forward, there was a place like a high platform in front of him, there seemed to be something sitting on it, something like a human or a non-human thing, and next to him, there was a thing like a hellhound, and when the white wolf saw the hellhound, he suddenly pounced, and a wolf and a dog scuffled together in an instant.
