Marvel's Mulgore Inn

Chapter 179 Old things
The gravekeeper is old and looks old and dim.He carried the lantern until he was only four or five meters away from Cows, but he didn't seem to be frightened at all.

"Come to visit the cemetery in the middle of the night?" He narrowed his eyes and glanced at Cows, recognizing that this was the young man who planned to borrow tools in the evening, "It is always a good thing for young people to be energetic, but they must also pay attention to safety. "

"The cemetery looks eerie, but I don't think there are any gangsters or robbers who will come here in the middle of the night." Cows said something very reasonable, "so I think that the cemetery is absolutely dead. Much safer than the city most of the time."

"It's true in theory, but devils and ghosts prefer to wander in the cemetery-as long as you are not targeted by them, you will indeed be very safe."

Cows became a little interested: "How long have you been here?"

"30 years or 40 years?" The gravekeeper pondered for a while, then shook his head in dismay, "I don't remember very clearly, but I can be sure that it was a long, long time ago..."

He didn't say any more, just raised his lantern, "Sorry, I have to continue my work."

The old cemetery keeper staggered towards the depths of the cemetery—this is a night watch job that every cemetery keeper must perform, once before going to sleep, and once after getting up early and having breakfast.He has been doing this kind of work for many years in this small cemetery with few people around.

Looking at his back, Kous narrowed his eyes.

There is no problem with the appearance, and the soul looks normal, but why do I always have a strange feeling?It seems that his death aura is too strong...

"Is it because you are too old and approaching the end of your life, which leads to the increase in death?"

Older people will bring a lot of corruption due to the decline of body functions.As a result, the complexion is dull, the movement is slow, the life is dull, the fire of life is also faltering, and the essence, energy, and spirit are almost exhausted.From the perspective of the soul, it will be filled with a rich gray-black color, commonly known as "dead energy".

Couss felt that he might be overthinking. He took a walk in the cemetery and prepared to return to the campsite.

Nights in the suburbs are always very dark.He had just taken a few steps when he kicked on a hard stone, almost knocking over someone's tombstone.

With a soft sound of "Peng", a bunch of flames ignited in Kau Si's hand. He looked around, picked up a branch and lit it, intending to make a temporary torch to illuminate the way to leave.

As the flame flickered, he clearly saw the inscription on the stone tablet under his feet.

"Cat Slay is a poor fellow buried here, may God bless him!"

"Don't blame, don't blame..." Cows was about to apologize to the tombstone, when suddenly his movements stopped.

Carter Slay?

Hmm... seems to have discovered something serious!
This is a very inconspicuous old tombstone, located on the outskirts of the cemetery, and the stone railings around the cemetery keep the tomb out.Those buried here are generally homeless, unidentified stowaways, and unclaimed corpses beyond the time limit—these people generally cannot be buried with the dead with names, and the government will give them to the cemetery managers. A certain fee, and then drag those corpses to the cemetery, and hand them over to the managers to set up graves outside the cemetery.

When the grave watchman came back from night patrol, he saw Cows holding a half-burned branch, looking at an unremarkable small tomb in a daze.

"This guy..." The old man glanced at the stele and quickly recognized it.

"What? Are you interested in this guy?"

"I think so!" Kous raised his head and looked at the old grave guard in front of him with a smile. "This name reminds me of many things. I am very interested in hearing his story."

"Well, I know this guy, it's been... a long, long time ago!"

"Carter Slay used to be a Ranger in Texas!"

"He punishes evil and promotes good, fulfills his duties, is respected by others, but lives in poverty, and when he sees his loved one dying but can't do anything, he finally gives up his morality and accepts bribes from gangsters, but he doesn't know everything It's all a trick of the enemy.

When the matter of his accepting bribes was made public, he was ruined, and the respect and love in the past turned into disgust and accusations in an instant, and he was jailed for this, and finally died alone in depression. "

Speaking of this, the old man paused for a while, and continued, "The prison guards brought the body out, sent it to this cemetery, and gave me a sum of money. So I made this tomb for him, so that he can sleep forever it's here."

"Do you think this guy is stupid?" The old grave guard laughed, "I don't want to live in poverty, but I want a good reputation. How can there be such an easy thing in the world? After all, Carter Sley only He's just a poor wretch who lost to his inner greed."

"You know him well..." Cows stared playfully at the old man who guarded the grave, "If Carter Sley lived to this day, he should be more than 100 years old, right?"

"Yes!" The old man looked at the deep night in a daze, as if he was trying to remember, "That is really long enough! If history is repeated again, I think..."

"Do you regret it?"

"No!" The old man gave Cows an unexpected answer, "I think he will still do it, after all, this guy is a very stubborn guy, even if he is wrong—besides, is he really wrong?"

"He was wrong!"

The voice of Cous seemed to come from far away. He threw away the burning branches, and raised the Balrog Hammer with his backhand. Swaying in the wind, the raging flames of hell ignited on the hammer head, illuminating the surrounding area. scenery.

"If Carter Slay stood in front of me, I would give him a pertinent piece of advice."

"Never... seek skin from a tiger!"

Thousands of thunderbolts descended from the sky, illuminating the huge cemetery in white.

The face of the old man guarding the tomb suddenly became extremely astonished. Before he could react, violent thunder had swept across the entire cemetery.Immediately afterwards, there was an earth-shattering thunder, and a young man with long hair fell out of the air in a panic.

"I've noticed something is wrong since I left New York State, but after the investigation, I found nothing." Cows said coldly, "A guy who can turn into water, a ghost thing that can hide in the air. Shouldn't it be the next thing?" There is a demon that can hide in the soil?"

"But it doesn't matter now, the moment you showed your flaws, you were declared dead!"

"Feng Mo—"
