The torture room in the Dulik Tower is dark and muddy, with a huge space, and various instruments are scattered in it, faintly visible.

On the left is a set of torture beds and fixtures, on the right in the center is a heavy wooden door, and on the right is a large wooden cabinet. Through the half-closed door, one can see that there are long whips and various other instruments of torture hanging inside.

To the right of the front desk was a small table and a stool, and the door creaked open, filling the room with a dusty and stale smell.

----------

After the execution was over, everyone felt bleak in their hearts, and the four lives were so tragically reduced to ashes before their eyes...

They did save their companions, but they had a big fight in the hotel...

Liu Xu didn't know what they were arguing about, but the maid had been rescued, and now she was sleeping in the hotel. After the limelight, she would probably wander the world with the circus. Of course, the maid in the early stage was indeed a person.. .

Liu Xu tried it before, the maid is actually a spirit body, I don't know if it is a ghost or something else, anyway, she is not a real human being.He chose not to say a word about this, because even the spirit body still has a body like a balloon. Liu Xu easily crossed the balloon to find the essence of the other party, but how could he be sure of the identity of the other party in this small town? What about others?

Maybe even he himself is like this. After all, his memory has been faulted. Maybe he is not himself, but a clone of some kind of will.Liu Xu always bases his guesses on the worst-case scenario, so as not to be able to bear the terrifying truth when the truth appears in front of him.

But in fact, Liu Xu must have done the right thing, because right after the circus drama ended, there were special executioners on the side of the jury, who put steel nails on the chest of the charred corpse.

He had a very uneasy guess, he suspected that everyone was like a coated balloon, maybe it was just a ridiculous puppet show being staged for some ridiculous evil god.

The only question is what role is he going to play in this scene...

.........

【XNUM X Year X NUM X Month X NUM X Day】

There was nothing to say all night, Liu Xu spent the night in a very ordinary way.

But last night it looked like the circus was out again, and there were sounds of fighting in the streets.

He opened the window last night but couldn't see anything, and because of the thick fog, he quickly closed the window. This small town by the sea really has an unacceptable smell of the sea and harsh weather.

Therefore, when communicating with the circus in the morning, when Liu Xu heard the words of [Ghoul], although there was an expression of disbelief on his face, he quickly accepted this setting.

After all, it was a fantasy world, and even he himself could make ghouls with a little magic, so why should he care about such things?What really needs to be dealt with is who made the ghoul and where did the ghoul come from.

Since the method of killing witches in this small town is hanging, only yesterday was changed to burning for the circus performance, so if the corpses are to be moved, the few people who died yesterday are not suitable targets.

The cemetery is the first destination, because it is next to the execution ground, and there are still a large number of corpses stored there.

But before inspecting the cemetery, today's villagers were extremely excited. They gathered together early in the morning to hold a shitty village meeting. It seemed that yesterday's ghoul incident made too much noise, and some villagers were accidentally attacked.

That's really strange, where did so many ghouls come from?

Liu Xu recalled yesterday when he stabbed into the maid's chest, it was like punching a fist on an inflatable colossus, the inside was empty and there was only the hard feeling formed by the air, as if it was hardened by the air to shape it into a human form.

If there are too many abnormal things, then they can't be regarded as abnormal, it's just a different kind of daily life.

He can be sure that the drama being performed today is definitely not a mysterious drama that exceeds common sense, but a chaotic drama that has gone beyond control and distorted the entire world. The stage of this small town will only have a tragic and painful process, as well as hopeless Sad ending.

At the village meeting, the boy saw the people in the circus trying to help the villagers, but none of their actions could make them integrate into the town, and the innkeeper Carter didn't know if it was because of the anger in his heart that the maid was arrested yesterday. Nowhere to vent.

He warned everyone in the town that the monsters that attacked everyone last night were ghouls, and they must have been made by the Whateleys!After receiving the report, Hopkins, as an "experienced" witch hunter, immediately sentenced the Whateley family to hang, and led his militia and a group of angry residents to the Whateley house.

How ridiculous, how could a group of ordinary people be the opponent of the witch?

They are just persecuting people with unfounded charges, and then they think they are useful people, they think they are doing the right thing, and they can contribute to the purification of this world.

But in the end it's all just stupid blindness!

The Whateleys and their elders were arrested, only the youngest Lavinia was not found by everyone.

The execution was about to begin, but Liu Xu never found Carter's trace...

Someone from the circus also disappeared. Are they looking for Lavinia or Carter?

On one side is a family with occult research, and on the other side is an inn owner who has no secrets until now.

But at this moment, the old man who was really about to be executed started to shout.Even though his neck was covered, and he was about to bear the threat of death, he was still able to shout loudly, even pushing his grandson into the dangerous public opinion.

"Lavinia, you must live on and inherit the legacy of your ancestors! The great Outer God will come to this place one day! ia ia yu—"

The execution was completed in an instant, and the wooden boards under the feet of the executed were just opened, and they were hanged high on the execution rack.

It's just that the mystery of their family, and the path they're going to stick to, is like ridiculous snot candy these days.

Something is about to come, and some answer is about to appear. Liu Xu, who replaced the head of the group, Fujimaru Tachika, with a new script, has a face as dead as a mask.

If anyone is planning to use drama to change something, let him use drama to make this farce more joyful!

462. Taboo Comes to the Garden ([-])

I dance in the bright garden, surrounded by vines, flowers and weeds.

The last son is lost, the second son is dead, and the eldest son is looking for power!

I dance where the fire falls...

The unknown king is coming, bringing what we think we need, and taking away the common ways of the world!

----------

The corpses of the Whateley family were all nailed with steel nails, which was done by the executioner, and when Liu Xu gave the other party a little sweetness, the other party directly said that this was done by Mr. Carter at the expense of the request , the reason is to prevent the resurrection of the corpse.

Although it is true that the corpse is nailed to a wooden stake to prevent the corpse from being resurrected into a vampire, but it is too strange to put a steel nail on it.And it seems that he saw someone from the circus going to the cemetery, and he didn't know if they were looking for Carter, or they were doing something unknown.

But all of this is not the most important thing, Liu Xu followed Lavinia's figure, even if the opponent was a little girl who was good at dodging in the shadow of the city, she still couldn't avoid Liu Xu's eyes.

For a girl whose family members have been executed, is her spirit strained to the limit?

Liu Xu doesn't know and doesn't know, because his family is long gone, he hates his brother, and even more hates his father.His father left everything behind and disappeared, while his elder brother only had fanaticism towards himself and anger towards his younger brother.

People who have everything are jealous of people who have nothing. If you want to ask why, it is probably because my brother is just the heir born of the old days and humans, and I am the heir born between the old days.

Therefore, the speed must be fast enough, and the behavior must be concealed enough to prevent it from making a sound, and to prevent others from noticing the abnormality of the old building.The outstretched big hand caught his target in the back in an instant, not letting it make a sound or making a resistance, and opened the half-closed door long ago, just like a magic trick on the stage. It was half-opened, and as Liu Xu's body rolled in, the door was closed immediately in good time.

Of course, Lavinia's original key, the key that was thrown under the flower bed, is now in his arms, to ensure that no one else will sneak in here again.

"You—uh..."

The little girl's strength is very small, but it's not too weak. She can do pull-ups by clasping Liu Xu's arm behind her back, without being choked by her neck.At the same time, the random kicking of both feet also caused Liu Xu pain, his abdominal cavity was like a big drum being shaken and filled with echoes, and what was worse was that the balloon-like body seemed to be a little precarious.

The most important thing is the impotent props, the more important is the delicate heart without leaving traces, and the most important is the iron-blooded and ruthless actions.

Liu Xu has a potion that does not belong to this era, it is a prop that can temporarily stop people's ability to move...

It is a sedative for medical use, with a strong anesthetic effect, and it may be a bit too effective for this era where there is no drug resistance.Lavinia quickly lay down on the ground quietly, Liu Xu put her on the chair in the room, wrapped the bandages she had prepared long ago with cotton to close her mouth, and tied her hands and feet with plastic bands that could be easily tied on the chair.

Although what he said and did looked like a villain who did all kinds of evil, Liu Xu knew that what he should do had a more important purpose.Taking advantage of the situation, I put a blindfold on the girl and covered it with a sack, and in addition to the windows of Whateley's house that blocked the light, the girl could not see Liu Xu's true face under the heavy wrapping without turning on the lights.

"Hmm..." After solving Lavinia's matter, Liu Xu found out that when he rushed into the house before, he stepped on something in a panic.

It was a piece of paper wrapped in an envelope. It seemed that there was some secret communication. He picked up the envelope with gloves on and checked it. Although it was said that part of it was polluted by the mud on his shoes, the rest The writing below is still clearly visible.

This is the content of the letter written by Abigail. The content is relatively short, that is, I hope that Lavinia can accompany her to watch the drama of the crew tonight. The "Westwalker" that will be staged tonight is something they have never heard of. , a novel story from the East.

【Communication between little girls...】

Liu Xu frowned, he always felt that something was not right, he went to the bar yesterday, and heard that the Whateley's purchase of occult props had been a daily routine for decades, and the whole town knew about it, And now the ghouls that suddenly appeared were revealed to be the work of them?

It was Carter who broke the news this morning. He is Abigail's guardian, so he must know the relationship between Abigail and Lavinia. Could it be that he wanted to take the opportunity to kill someone?So what happened to the ghoul? The steel nail that the executioner said was made by Carter. Could it be that Carter knew who the real mastermind was, but he chose to assist?

With doubts, Liu Xu searched every corner of the house, but except for some runes that seemed to have mysticism, the others were basically ordinary decorations.He even told the crew members that the things purchased by Whateley's house were not correct, and many obvious things were missing, including the herbs he had seen in the trash can.

"Woooo..."

"Has it been half an hour?" Liu Xu, who searched here and there, couldn't find anything, but Lavinia was already awake and trying to struggle, and he also walked downstairs slowly when he heard some noises upstairs .

Because the wooden boards of the old house have rotted, no matter how light Liu Xu's steps were, there was still a creaking sound. This also made Lavinia, who was caught immobile, understand that the person who caught her was still alive. This on her side.

To be honest, Liu Xu doesn't want to hurt children, but if he has to, he will turn into evil. In the final analysis, human nature is just the rules he follows, not his bottom line.So he glanced at the sedative in his arms, and hit Lavinia on the neck indifferently, making the poor girl lose the ability to resist.

However, the stench of urine told him that the dosage seemed to be a bit too heavy, and it would not be a good thing to accidentally kill the other party.So Liu Xu also moved her to the bathroom, tore off her clothes to clean up the stains, and then covered her with a towel.

At the same time, he also roughly understood the structure of the house. If the answer he wanted to find was not upstairs, then he might as well go underground to find it.

Clenching his fist tightly, Liu Xu took a deep breath, and punched a half-meter-wide hole in the floor of the old house.

And the fact is as he expected, there is a large laboratory underground...

463. Taboo Comes to the Garden ([-])

Clouds shattered along the shore of the lake, twin suns sank to the edge of the lake, long shadows descended

Calcosa

A black star rises on a strange night, a strange moon hovers at the zenith, what is more strange than strange is

Lost Carcosa

Hyades sings loudly, the king's rags waver, and the song that no one can hear fades away

in that dim carcosa

My soul still sings, my voice is dead, the tears of the unsung are dry

in that lost carcosa

----------

Through the cracked floor, Liu Xu also found the entrance to the basement, and he walked in like an old customer.

He found a lot of things here, some badly damaged stone slabs and broken pottery fragments with words written on them. He found similar things in the study room, but there were not as many as in the basement.

It seems that he saw scraps of paper in the trash can before, which are the reconstructed pictures of these pictures. If they are really of the same type, it is likely to be something from the South American mythology system, but it is a pity that he does not have a deep research on this , Knowing where and what type is already top-of-the-line.

There are also some odd props found in the kitchen, what looks like spoons and holes, some of which also contain rotting animal carcasses.The corpse was rotten like a rag, it should be crows, puppies, cats, mice and other things mixed together, and then treated in a strange way.

In addition, there are some surprising things. Two packages of [Fake Death Medicine] are placed on the table, and there are even prescriptions and usage methods written on the side.What's more important is a letter signed by Randolph Carter, which was also neatly spread out here. In the letter, various mystic experiences of the two families have been exchanged for a long time.

"So that's it, are the steel nails to prevent suspended animation?"

Raising his eyebrows, Liu Xu suddenly realized that the steel nails were not meant to stop ghouls at all, but just a preparatory measure to prevent some people from dying.Even if the Whateley family took the prepared fake death pills, they would still die unexplainably under the execution of steel nails piercing their hearts.

Did you find out what happened to their family?Or is it that Carter is making a plan that no one else can stop, or even reach the finale, and now he wants to deal with all the insiders.

There are still many strange things in the basement, even with Liu Xu's mystic knowledge, it is difficult to recognize them all, but he still has things he knows, such as the analysis notes of "Book of Eibon".He remembered that he had a Hiberril version of "The Book of Eibon" at home, and it was just analyzing the content like reading comprehension. He had never done this, because the one in his home was one of the most complete original versions.
