Chapter 3217 Blasphemy and Revenge
On the way forward, the two people who talked about their longing did not forget to check the tombstones everywhere and were alert to the enemies hidden in the darkness.
Xia De found that most of the tombstones here only had simple names and dates of birth and death, and a few even had one name, while the most miserable tombstone only reads "Old Mike" and is not sure if it is a nickname.
On tombstones with more information, there may be causes of death, such as the identity of the person erecting the tombstones, or even a small eulogy. Based on this information, the owners of these tombstones lived in the years from the Third Era to the Fifth Era today.
"Are there any tombstones for the First Age here?"
Xia De pinched Teresa's hand, lifted the oil lamp again and the girl wearing glasses shook her head:
"No. My nun and I have not seen any tombstones from the First Age here, but we have seen the tombs of the dead in the Second Age twice. But those two tombs, one with only a name, really does not need to be excavated; behind the other tombstone is the entrance to the caucus, which is very large, so my nun and I did not go in for safety and avoided it directly."
"In addition to the graves, there are caucus chambers here?"
Xia De was a little surprised. He looked into the distance along the way, but he did not see anything outside the tombstone in the dark wasteland surrounded by the mist.
Theresa nodded:
"Not only the caucus, but also the church-style above-ground tombs. When I first came, the nun met me. When we returned to the gravekeeper's hut, we even saw a cemetery surrounded by iron fences at the end of the white mist.
But I was not in good condition at that time, so we left directly. Later, we wanted to look for it, but we couldn't find it."
The two continued to move forward while chatting. The expected attack did not appear. However, even Xia De felt a strong sense of mental discomfort as he stayed away from the "gravekeeper's hut".
Tinnitus and slight dizziness are just appearances, and the more serious one is the subtle sense of dislocation between the body and the soul. Although "she" gently explained that it was just an illusion after the mental impact, and Xia De's soul and body merged well, Xia De still felt that the level of danger of this time adventure was probably second only to that time in "Eternal Night City".
"It seems that I can't bring Xiao Mia next time."
Gradually, the two of them stopped talking, but focused on observing the tombstone and alerting the enemy. The light of the light held by Teresa in his hand became much dimmed a lot. Unconsciously, even as they breathed, the air spit out from their mouths condensed into white mist.
"When we returned to the cabin from here just now, was it so cold nearby?"
Xia De asked softly, and Theresa shook her head gently:
"Absolutely, the nun and I went out so many times, the temperature here should be constant near the freezing point. What is that?"
In the darkness to the left of the two people, a huge monster could be vaguely seen standing in the fog. Xia De narrowed his eyes and then suddenly realized that it was a big tree:
"Tree, are there any trees here?"
"The nun said that everything that appears here must be related to the tomb. That is not our direction to go forward, keep moving forward."
The big tree standing in the dark did not disappear because of the two of them continuing to move forward, but was always at the limit of their vision, as if they were following them. Shortly after speeding up, Miss Lead's "grave" appeared not far ahead.
After walking a few steps, he confirmed that he was not wrong. Xia De looked at the tombstone in front of the dug-up pit under the light of the lamp Teresa was carrying. The content on it was less than Xia De thought:
【Gianna Lead】
[Born in the spring of the fifth era 5160]
【Throwing graves is a serious crime.】
"She didn't lie, her name is true. But is she only 22 years old this year? Her talent is actually not bad."
Teresa whispered, Xia De nodded, touched the tombstone with his hand, and then accidentally discovered that the tombstone behind the "Major Sin" seemed to be blocked by mud. He frowned and clewed out the hidden words, the content was very short-
【Blasphemy of my Lord, the sins are unforgivable.】
"What exactly is the grave she broke into? I see that she didn't lie to us just now. The employer she mentioned probably concealed something very important."
Teresa said with some concern. Of course, she looked down on the profession of "tomb robbers", but this did not prevent her from showing some sympathy. Xia De checked the tombstone more carefully and confirmed that no other information was missing:
"We have dug up this tomb, so what if the tombstone is removed?"
Teresa shivered first, then shook her head suddenly:
"Just arise this kind of thought, I feel like a disaster is coming. We should not do this. But what do you want this tombstone to do? Is this extraordinary material?"
"No, I just feel that the person is not dead yet, but it is unlucky to have a tombstone erected. If it is destroyed directly, I am worried that it will affect Miss Leyard. Yes, don't do this, safety first."
However, this did not prevent him from trying to bend down and carefully dig open the soil under the tombstone, wanting to see what is under the tombstone. This is not to dig a grave so there is no need for a shovel, but unfortunately he did not come to any conclusion:
"This tombstone grows directly on the ground. I mean, the depth it extends to the ground is probably deeper than we can imagine. This tombstone is even like a part of this wasteland, a tombstone wasteland. Forget it, don't waste time here, let's continue moving forward."
Theresa nodded, and after holding hands again, the two of them looked at the tree in the distance, which was still there and did not appear directly in front of them.
But they stopped shortly after this departure, because Theresa discovered a diggable grave that meets the requirements.
The tombstone is not a vertical style, but a horizontal tombstone in the style of a book embedded in black soil. It looks like granite and says-
【Maggie Chandler】
【Fifth Era 405 to 510.】
【Dead from the attack behind the apprentice's despicable apprentice.】
【Twelve-level witch.】
【The body is incomplete with index finger of the left hand/middle finger of the left hand.】
[Last words: I love you and love them too. But if you ask who I love the most, my dear Maria, of course it is you - I want you to carry this sentence, regret it for life.]
The newest ⊥小⊥小⊥ said⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥!
In just a few lines of words, a rather complicated story was outlined. When Xia De viewed and translated the text, Teresa threw the gold coins she carried with her with her twice with her empty left hand. She had certain divination ability:
"The level of danger cannot be detected, but at least we will not lose money if we dig it up here."
The lantern was temporarily placed on the ground, and Teresa watched Xia De dig up the soil on the grave with the shovel, and a sarcophagus was buried under the soil.
The sarcophagus began to tremble slightly as soon as it was exposed to the light. Shade signaled Teresa to prepare the relic given by Miss Lead, and then pushed her hand forward in the air. The lid of the sarcophagus slid open with the harsh friction, and a figure in a black dress sat up from the coffin.
The three gold rings she wore on her left hand were so conspicuous that Xia De observed them at a glance. As for the owner of these burial objects, they were not the skeletons or mummies that Xia De imagined. Apart from his skin being too pale, the woman looked like a living person.
She had long yellow hair and black eyes. Although she was sitting in the coffin, she was probably taller than Xia De. At this time, she looked coldly at the two people who dug up her grave. After a moment of silence, a hoarse voice sounded:
"What do you want to do?"
Although the age of her life has been almost five thousand years since "now", Teresa can understand the language she uses. Teresa said on the way to come that it is best not to fight unless necessary, so she took the initiative to answer the question:
"We want your funeral objects, yes, those gold objects."
The woman sitting in the coffin replied coldly:
"If answering my question, if it satisfies me, I can give you some of what you want-"
She didn't give the two options to refuse:
"My apprentice thinks I love others more than her, and ended up murdering me because of love and hate. You should have seen what I said before my death on the tombstone. So if you were facing this situation, what would you say?
One person answers once.”
Xia De threw away half of the wooden stick in his hand and took a step back and stood with Teresa. The young girl obviously had never experienced such a complicated thing. She was worried about her studies while studying at Serxes Higher Medical College, but she had no time to get involved in love. She met Xia De when she was about to graduate. The love experience was quite simple.
Xia De signaled her to say first, so Teresa pursed her lips and thought about it. This issue can actually be divided into two directions. One direction is to retaliate against the apprentice with words like a woman in the grave; the other is to choose to forgive and let go.
She was not sure what the correct answer was, so she decided to help Xia De rule it out first:
“I would say this:
[I am very happy that you killed me, not others, my young apprentice, my lover, may you go through the rest of your life with love and hatred for me, then would you let me die in your arms in the last kiss?]”
This is a sentence she thought of combining her imagination with the contents of a few witch court love novels she has read. Teresa even blushed when she said these words, after all, Xia De was standing beside her.
The woman in the sarcophagus did not comment on the answer she gave, and her black eyes looked at Xia De:
"What about your answer?"
