93. Helpless separation
"It's a bat!" As soon as Tashir spoke, he saw a black mass above his head, revealing the white rodents and red eyes underneath.
Not only were there bats in the White Tower, but there were hundreds of them all over the ceiling, and they hung upside down on the ceiling, smiling weirdly.
"Oops! Oops! This red-eyed bat is meant to suck blood! Tarsil shouted in panic, and his cry also attracted the otherwise quiet bats, who spread their wings and pounced on the two of them.
"Young Master! Come on! He shoved Master Depp, trying to push him back to where he was.
Several bats attacked them, and he could only stand in front of Master Depp, and the bat's claws scratched his skin, and blood immediately dripped down.
He endured the pain and hugged Young Master Depp to prevent him from being hurt.
Young Master Depp pressed a bulge in a panic, and in an instant several huge "clicks" sounded, and he saw that the pitch-black hole at the top opened.
The yellowish moonlight shone through the hole, and the bats that were illuminated were not as calm as before, and began to become excited, with the sound of claws scratching and teeth grinding in their mouths incessantly.
And in the next moment, the bats that had been pounced on them turned their heads and flew in the direction of the moonlight, densely like a few clouds of black mist, rushing towards the entrance of the cave, flying slowly and being hit to the ground, struggling a few times and then not moving.
"Tasir, I'm afraid!" Young Master Depp grabbed his hand and trembled constantly.
"It's okay, young master, the bats are gone, we're ...... safe"
Before he could finish speaking, the door of the secret room suddenly opened, and in the light of the bright white candlelight, he squinted at the tall figure standing in the doorway.
Dressed in gorgeous and delicate silk clothes, lambskin shoes, sable shawl, and a crown with countless gems on top of his head.
He bowed silently:
"Your Majesty the King"
Who knew that the next moment, this man with a gloomy face gave a serious order:
"Execute Tahir and bring Depp back to his room!"
"No!" Young Master Depp shouted in a panic.
And the next moment, two guards in armor came over and separated the two.
"Father! Don't execute Tasir, it's all my fault! Young Master Depp hurriedly explained.
And the man's face was gloomy, and he just looked at him coldly.
Seeing that the guards were about to take away Tasir, Young Master Depp hurriedly grabbed the man's leg and begged for his forgiveness, but who knew that it attracted more disgust:
"Stand up! Depp! You are a man, how can you do such a weak thing! ”
"I can't help it, father...... Tasir, Tasir, he is my dearest person, the servants and guards around me only regard me as a useless young master, only Tasir, he really regards me as a friend"
"Friends?"
"Yes, since my mother was sick, only he will be sad for me when I am in pain, and happy for me when I am happy, he ...... Just like a mother, understand me and care about me......"
Young Master Depp cried aggrievedly, if in normal times, a man would definitely blame him, but today he didn't, but after seeing the scar on Tasir's back that was scratched by a bat, he was silent.
After a long time, he changed the order:
"You also need to pay for your actions," he said, waving his hand and calling back the guards who were about to walk out the door, "Banish Tasil from the palace, never let him come back, put Depp in his bedroom, and don't let him out without my orders"
"Yes" The guards obeyed the order, and in the painful shouts of Young Master Depp, the two separated.
Tarsir descended the castle's stairs to find the corpses of his servants on the floor, and the plates and furnishings scattered all over the floor, littered with food scraps and torn clothes, apparently after a fierce battle.
He walked past one of the servants, only to find that underneath his white clothes was a yellow, almost thin piece of paper-like skin, exactly like what he had seen in the secret room.
Everywhere was lit by burning torches and candles, and hundreds of guards with spears pierced the flying bats near the walls, which they picked down and threw into the fire until it burned out.
No wonder the king had to deal with them, it was they who unleashed vampire bats that led to the death of the servants in the entire castle.
Tarsir lowered his head, only to realize what a wrong thing he had done.
Ling Ye recalled the scene he had seen before, frowning, he was very sympathetic to the plight of the two of them, and felt sorry for the dead people, but he clearly saw that in the secret room, on that floor tile, there was no mark of the magic circle at all.
So when did the circle exist?
In the following days, Tasil never entered the castle again, because he was a teenager, and he was down-to-earth, the owner of the carving shop took him in and made him an apprentice, and under the influence of his ears and eyes, he also learned a lot of carving skills, and became a young man who could take orders independently, and on his 18th birthday, he heard a bad news:
The young Master Depp killed his father, stepmother and younger brother just to sit on the throne.
When he opened the door, he saw that the angry crowd had already picked up torches, ready to overthrow the rule of the Sisid family.
The Sisted family is the family of Master Depp, and it is said that it has a history of more than 100 years.
"How so?"
He couldn't believe that Young Master Depp, who relied on him three years ago, would actually do such a thing.
In the past three years, he has missed Master Depp all the time, and when he has time, he goes to the bar, sends money to the guards of the castle, and asks about the news of Master Depp.
But what they only know is that after the queen jumped out of the window and died, Young Master Depp had a serious illness, and since then his face has been distorted and deformed, living like a monster, he hides in the room every day and does not come out, and some people see that at night, Young Master Depp's eyes have turned red, and he is eating raw meat, in short, no one dares to approach that room, even the food is just placed at the door, and he does not dare to send it in.
And his father, after the death of his mother, married another beautiful wife, and a year later, the wife gave birth to a healthy child.
And Young Master Depp, who was always disliked, finally stabbed his father with a sharp knife after learning that he could not get the throne.
"No, it can't be!" He shouted, but his voice was drowned out by the angry crowd with torches.
He followed the crowd to the gate of the castle, only to find that the guards guarding the gate were dead, and the courtyard was full of lying servants, their faces were blue and they had long since lost their breath.
The crowd was clearly frightened, but the next moment, led by an old woman, rushed into the castle.
