Chapter 21 The Witch's Flower

The trees are tall, with luxuriant branches and leaves, covering the sky and the sun.

The sunlight is blocked outside, and only the occasional sun's rays can penetrate through the gaps between the trees and spill in.This forest seems to deny the entry of sunlight, blocking all light from outside.

When Ye Xi entered the forest, the light suddenly dimmed, and the surroundings were also dark and chilly.He didn't care, it wasn't the first time he came into this forest, and he had already gotten used to the discomfort at the beginning.He looked around, wanting to find the yellow flower that resembled a lily but was not exactly the same.

The footsteps are getting more and more inward, but there is no flower in the slightest, which is really strange!Ye Xi thought, he didn't pay attention on weekdays, but now he realized that this forest is actually very monotonous and lacks the decoration of flowers.However, it seems that you have seen flowers here before!The more Ye Xi thought about it, the more confused he became, maybe it was an illusion?

Until reaching the depths of the forest, Ye Xi stepped on a gurgling stream and saw the yellow flowers rooted in the soil.It is not a large area of ​​blooming, but a lonely blooming of individual plants, each individual.

Ye Xi walked over, bent down to pick a few flowers, and held them in his arms.

He looked up, and the opposite side of the creek was facing the church.Ye Xi's expression hesitated for a moment, do you want to drop by and have a look?Forget it, Bucky said, don't go near there, the priest is not a good man.

Of course he knows that the priest is not a good person, but this person is too confusing, and the ancient and mysterious aura about him is too intriguing and inquiring.However, Ye Xi felt that his interest in him seemed to have weakened, and the priest was no longer so attractive to him, not counting the blessing of the cookies.

Ye Xi hugged the flower, turned around and walked back.Go home early today, help Grandma Bucky make pumpkin pie, and then sue Grandma Bucky!Uncover the true face of Bucky, a cruel child abuser!Then yell at him with Grandma Bucky.

Humming a cheerful tone, Ye Xi hugged the flowers and walked back bouncing around. That cheerful little appearance was like a happy elf.However, the singing stopped abruptly and the footsteps stopped.

The tall, slender man in a gorgeous white robe with a silver cross hanging on his chest, with a deep smile on his handsome face, walked towards him. Wasn't it the priest he avoided?

The smile on Ye Xi's face gradually disappeared, and his expression became calm in an instant, as if he had changed into a different person.

No wonder Bucky wants to say that he is sick, isn't he sick?Mental illness, changing personality every minute, it's like taking medicine.

The priest came to Ye Xi and stopped. He lowered his head slightly, looking at him with blue eyes, with an indescribable smile on his handsome face, "Since you are here, why don't you go and sit down?" sit?"

"I got up early in the morning, baked cranberry cookies, and prepared mellow black tea. I thought you would like it." The priest said softly.

I do!

Confused, Ye Xi, who has always been synonymous with arrogance, had a cold expression on his face, and said disdainfully: "That's why you think that I have changed my appetite recently. I don't like sweet food, but salty food instead."

The priest chuckled slightly, disapproving of his attitude, and said in a good-tempered manner, "Then you should try my grilled lamb chops, which are lambs from the northern pastures, sprinkled with precious spices from far away eastern countries, and served with Black pepper, paired with a bowl of thick mushroom soup. This one must suit your appetite."

"..." Ye Xi.

I can't help but swallow my saliva, damn it!I want to eat!

however……

Before the real food is put in front of him, Ye Xi is still very stance and a very firm person.

He rejected the priest's temptation and said firmly, "I'm going home to eat the pumpkin soup made by my grandma, so don't get in the way."

The priest chuckled again, "Pumpkin soup...?"

He looked at the flowers in Ye Xi's arms, and suddenly said: "The flowers in your arms have a nice name."

Hearing this, Ye Xi raised his head and looked at him.

"Lilith, it's called Lilith." The priest said, "It's really beautiful, isn't it?"

"Pure as a lily." The priest looked at the flower in his arms with an expression of admiration, and his handsome expression made people feel cold for no reason, "but it is a witch's flower that grows from blood. "

The priest's expression turned cold in an instant, gloomy and cold, "Love on the verge of death, this is its flower language."

"..." Ye Xi.

Sensing the cold and gloomy aura spreading from the priest, he frowned, as if he didn't quite understand why the priest reacted so strongly.It's just a flower, why?

"Many years ago, there was a man who was lured by Lilith and came here." The priest said slowly in a low voice, "The hopeless Lilith always likes to seduce men who are immersed in love."

"Take me away, take me out of here, bring me to your beloved, she will fall in love with you. This is Lilith's temptation, no one can resist." The priest said, "That man followed Lilith's temptation, Came here."

"He picked the flower with great hope and brought it back to his beloved. However, the poisonous snake waiting for an opportunity showed its fangs, and the man fell to the ground, and the flowers were scattered beside him." The priest said, "The cold The venom eroded his life, and he was full of despair when he was on the verge of death. At that time, I passed by here. He begged me to save him, and he was willing to give everything."

"And then?" Ye Xi said, his expression was equally calm, he seemed to have anticipated the next thing.The priest is not as kind as his appearance. It is not his style to do good deeds every day.

"I saved him," said the priest, "at the cost of his soul."

"However, he deceived me." The priest said with a cold voice, "He hid under the protection of the Lord and fled this world. I cannot find him, nor can I take his soul away."

The expression on Ye Xi's face was cold, he lowered his eyes and said, "He is a smart man."

The priest looked at him and said, "Can you tell me why he repented?"

The priest's tone was full of doubts, "Why did you go back on your word? I promised him eternal life, wealth and status, why did he go back on it?"

"Then why are you obsessed with him?" Ye Xi asked back, "You have everything, why are you obsessed with his soul? There is nothing special about him to you, right? It is just the most ordinary soul. Just one of countless people."

The priest was taken aback by the question, and a puzzled expression appeared on his handsome face.

Ye Xi looked at him and said, "As for why he repented, maybe it's because he wants to go to heaven!"

"He must love his wife very much. His wife is a good person." Ye Xi said, then turned and left.

This time the priest did not stop him, the priest stood where he was, with a bewildered expression on his handsome face.

Why are you obsessed with the soul of that person, who is obviously just an ordinary farmer.

why?

The priest began to recall that it was a long time ago...

Yes!

Because that man's face had a happy and sweet expression that he had never had before. It was the expression that only those who are immersed in love and full of happiness will have.

Lilith is jealous of him, so she lures him to come.

And he was also jealous of him, so he set a trap and asked for his soul.

Because...they are the same, he and Lilith are both embracing a hopeless love and living in a desperate hell.

**********

Lilith is madly infatuated with Cain, but Cain doesn't love her. After being rejected again and again, Lilith, who can't get what she loves, pierces her heart with a knife blade when she is crazy, but she still can't keep Cain. In her hidden heart, the only thing left to her is the one she loves turning around and leaving without mercy.

Desperate Lilith finally broke down, she had to admit the fact that the person she loved didn't love her and abandoned her.

The blood that flowed from her heart soaked the ground, and a lily-like flower grew out of it. This witch's flower, which grew out of the blood, has a pure and beautiful flower shape, but has a sad and thick color, like blood. Same red.

Love on the verge of death, this is Lilith's flower language.

In the eyes of unfortunate people, Lilith is as red as blood, symbolizing misfortune and despair.

In the eyes of happy people, it is brilliant yellow, which symbolizes pure love and eternal happiness.

As early as many years ago, when the priest saw this kind of witch's flower growing from the blood, there was only scarlet blood in his eyes.Just like the endless blood that flowed from his heart that night...

Scarlet and hideous...

The priest came to this remote town alone. When he was full of despair, he planted the witch's flower all over the forest. Year after year, it symbolized his hopeless love...

Lilith, dying love.

It is also desperate love.

Lost forever, full of despair.

****************

Back home, Ye Xi pushed the door open and entered.

Grandma Bucky was cleaning the table in the room. When she saw Ye Xi come back, she raised her head and said in surprise, "Hill, is this for me?"

Ye Xi walked in with the flowers in his arms, nodded, "Yeah."

He handed over the flowers, and Grandma Bucky took it with a happy face, "I really miss it!"

Grandma Bucky said, "What a beautiful flower!"

"Tell you an interesting thing." Bucky's grandma smiled and approached mysteriously, "Actually, Bucky's grandpa is colorblind!"

"He always thinks the flower is red. I've told him many times that it's yellow. But he just stubbornly thinks it's red." Grandma Bucky said, "There's nothing we can do about him! Stubborn old man .”

"Obviously he was the one who came back and said there was a devil in the forest to the east, and warned everyone not to approach it, but every time he went there by himself and picked flowers for me." Grandma Bucky said, "I can't persuade you."

Ye Xi was startled when he heard the words, he looked down at the flower in Grandma Bucky's hand, it was obviously yellow yesterday, but now... it was scarlet.
