4. Castle in the Mountains (end)
At night, there is no insect chirping, no voice, the orange magic lamp exudes a faint light, and the roaring mountain wind outside can only be faintly heard in the empty square, but this does not affect the tranquility of the castle, it seems that there is an invisible force to isolate the outside world. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
I don't know if it's an illusion, Jenn felt that the moon looked much bigger than the foot of the mountain, and he leaned on the guardrail and looked at the moonlit sea of clouds in the distance, like the magnificent scene depicted in the bard's song. Although it was on the top of a mountain, the temperature was not low, at least he only needed to wear a linen robe to avoid feeling cold.
"Mr. Jenn, do you want to go back to Helgen?"
Danielle's soft voice came from behind, and her voice sounded strangely penetrating, like taking a sip of warm ale.
"Miss Danielle, I'm just ......"
Jenn turned to see Danielle floating towards him like a ghost, nervous for no reason, looking at each other, and he very weakly avoided it.
"That'...... Can you tell us a little bit about yourself, and why did you choose to be a hunter?"
The corners of the girl's mouth rose slightly, her eyes narrowed into a curved curve, and she asked with a smile.
"Ah, I just feel like I need to fend for myself, and as a man you have to have the ability to take responsibility on your own!"
"It's because ...... Some girl?"
"How do you know!?" said Jenn, surprised, and then couldn't help but think of Monina, the little daughter of the leather goods store who always watched with adoring eyes as she threw her prey one by one on the counter. He told Monina that when he had saved up eighty gold coins one day, he would no longer hunt in the mountains, and that he would go to Ximu Town to buy a shop by the river, open a tavern, and then take Monina over and settle down.
Danielle couldn't help but wonder, although it seemed that the two were about the same age, Danielle was much more mature than Jenn, and any girl who had lived for sixteen years as an outcast would not be easy.
With the in-depth communication, Jenn unconsciously told all the information to the girl who had lost her legs, and felt that it was a natural thing to confide in her, from the life in the orphanage when she was a child to how to follow the old hunters of Helgen to hunt in the mountains, and slowly open the shooting talent in the process of hunting, master the knack of aiming and shooting, and then further step into the third level, you can get the elite medal in the temple of knowledge, and you can get a good salary in the city hall of Ximu Town every month, as a professional to settle in the local remuneration。
Here the two men talked softly in the moonlight, and at the top of the tallest tower in the distance, through the window, Olivia could be seen kneeling on the carpet praying silently, her eyes closed, her expression stiff, as if she was enduring severe pain.
She didn't have a strand of her body, and the scars everywhere crawled all over her originally seductive body like disgusting bugs, and if Jenn was here, he would understand why Friar Olivia wore a nun dress with a very conservative color but a seductive cut, in fact, if you think about it, the close-fitting nun dress is like a second skin that hides Olivia's cruel past.
"Olivia...... Which sin is it today?"
The phantom on the wall asked.
"Overseer, it's anger. ”
"Oh? Why?"
For the lowly servant still has an irrepressible anger against the perfect. ”
"About the lost lamb?"
"Yes, Lord Overseer. ”
"So, are you ready for punishment?"
"I ...... Get ready, please enjoy my lowly body. ”
"Correct, the master thinks that you are not humble at all, even more pure and noble than most people, and the qualities you carry are also extremely rare, tenacity, perseverance, and righteousness, the master makes you remember that you are not a walking corpse, but an independent individual, he will wait for you at the end of the line, and at that time, you will become an eternal follower of the master like me!"
The voice said seriously, Olivia raised her head with an expression of disbelief and said tremblingly, "You...... What do you say? I ...... I...... Am I, really, really? You know, I'm just a ...... Just a lowly outcast of God......"
Olivia, who had gone through so much pain, finally began to choke, the phantom on the wall stretched out her hand, and a pitch-black barbed iron rope whistled like raindrops on the woman's seemingly weak body, Olivia folded her hands, her cheeks were covered with tears, and her mouth kept shouting the name of the god, and with each shout, the pain deepened. Until her whole body was covered with fine wounds, dripping with blood, but her expression was holy and noble. I saw a black aura emerge from the void, slowly revolving around her, the black aura brushing over those terrible wounds, bringing out a puff of blood. The black light was baptized by blood and turned into a golden holy light that merged into her body, and at this moment Olivia seemed extremely sacred.
"Olivia, the host has arrived in Ximu Town, and he will be able to go to Xunshan Castle tomorrow evening, and this time there are two important guests accompanying him, remember to prepare dinner, don't let the guests feel sluggish, if there is any difficulty, you can tell me, understand." ”
"Yes, Lord Overseer, don't worry. ”
As the shadow on the wall cleared, Olivia finally collapsed to the ground unable to hold on, gasping for air.
"Sister Olivia, what's wrong with you!" Femis kicked open the door and pounced on Olivia the moment the seal disappeared, although she didn't hear anything outside the door just now, but when she saw her sister curled up on the ground and sobbing, her heart immediately lifted.
"It's nothing, Philis, you don't have to worry about me. For the glory of my Lord, even if it is painful, even if I lose my life, how can those lowly ants understand the tolerance and kindness of their masters, they do not deserve all this, only us, only we are the eternal servants of our masters!" Olivia stood up tremblingly, took out a black silk robe from the closet and draped it over her body, wrapped her delicate body, although her face was haggard, but her tone could not hide her excitement and anxiously commanded: " You go to Danielle at once and tell her that the master will definitely be at Xunshan Castle by tomorrow evening. Let her tell me that all classes will be suspended tomorrow, and that the castle will be cleaned for me, and that it will be spotless! I must rest now, and I must not let my master see this embarrassment!"
"Sister, is the master coming over!?"
Hearing the news, Femis subconsciously replied and froze in place.
"What are you doing, hurry up!" Olivia smiled and patted her on the head.
Olivia's bright smile made Phimes stunned again, and she couldn't help but praise in her heart: My sister is really beautiful when she laughs!
Jenn still couldn't talk to Miss Danielle all night, and Philemis hurried over with a happy face and forcibly dragged Danielle away, saying that she had some news to tell her.
The young man didn't dare to follow, so he had no choice but to spread his hands towards the backs of the two of them, and walked towards the guest room with his legs raised. On this night, he had a long dream, dreaming that he was married to Monina, kissing each other in the presence of the priests, running towards the flowers flying in the sky, and running in the bright sunshine, everything seemed so charming.
The next morning, as soon as the sun peeked out from under the thick clouds, and the golden morning light sprinkled every corner of the castle, Jenn, who was awakened by the crisp laughter of the maidens, opened his eyes, stretched out, and got up from the soft bed.
He had lived here for more than ten days, and if he wanted to live like this again, he felt that he could not even return to his old life.
Look at the things in this guest room, there is a magic lamp made of unknown crystals on the head, and there is a magic button at the head of the bed, this thing allows ordinary people to control the intensity of the light at will! The bathroom is also independent, and there is a metal object sticking out of the innermost wall of the compartment, as long as you unscrew the knob below, the water will be sprayed out of the metal object, and the water sprayed out is still warm! The excretion is sitting, and there is also a switch in the upper right corner of the box at the back, and the filth can be washed away by pressing the water, and it will be clean...... Not to mention these strange but very practical creations, even those extremely luxurious beds, desks, and wardrobes can be sold for sky-high prices in the auction house of Ximu Town!
After breakfast, he saw that all the girls had picked up their tools and cleaned up carefully, and even the Dharma professionals summoned water and wind elements of different sizes from time to time, cleaning every corner inch by inch like ploughing the ground.
But these exaggerated images can hardly stimulate Jenn's strong heart now, and the after-effect of staying in this castle for a long time is that he is no longer surprised by something strange. Anyway, in this place, you will often see wurms and all kinds of high-level magical beasts flying around, and the unknown Olivia monks will basically bring a certain blow to Jenn's cognition as long as they appear, either group divine grace, or group dispersal, as if releasing high-level divine magic is no different from eating and drinking, and then look at that Miss Fimis, who can imagine that this child is actually an epic mage, he used to think that Miss Fimeis was not a god outcast, but Danielle told him yesterday that Fimis did not have a heart when she was born, and there was only a large deformed sarcoma at the heart, and even the archbishop of the Ice and Snow Temple said that this little girl would not live to be five years oldBut Femisi is now seven and a half years old, in perfect health, and stronger than herself. Jenn even had the illusion that she didn't need to learn magic, as long as she took the mallet and was a qualified warrior!
At lunchtime, he finally grabbed Miss Danielle, the only one with whom he could communicate on an equal footing, and spoke out the doubts in his heart.
Danielle looked extremely happy, she smiled and told him the answer, it turned out that the founder of this called Xunshan Hermitage, the owner who bought all the disabled girls would bring guests to Xunshan Castle before this evening, Jenn only then reacted, whether he could leave this castle was directly related to this guy, and he couldn't help but worry in his heart, what is the purpose of this master leaving himself here, why do he call himself a lost lamb, maybe he can get the answer this evening......
