Astral Traveler [Quick Transmigration]
Chapter 147 The Thread of Life
If everyone had a choice, they certainly would not have gone to Francis Frederick so hastily.
The detective said that the third young master has an "unspeakable" curse, so what kind of curse is it?
Lydia believes that at least one more detective's diary must be found to understand the danger and curse of Francis before taking the risk.
But it was too late now, the housekeeper blocked the door, snakes spread all over the floor, and the ceiling was full of scary bats, all of them were monitoring and escorting them intentionally or unintentionally.
The poor girl Caroline, who had been stunned by fright for a long time, was so frightened that she reacted a little—she rolled her eyes and passed out.
Bruno had to carry her on his back.
The crowd huddled together and followed the housekeeper with difficulty, surrounded by snakes along the way.
Genos tried to turn around, but was immediately "hissed" by the red snake letter, scaring him so much that he didn't dare to act rashly again.
They kept descending the stairs, and soon came to the cellar under the castle. The gloomyness here made people feel chills all over their bodies.But they were still forced to go down, and finally came to a hidden entrance, and finally saw the place where Francis was.
The scorched black bricks surrounded the space very narrowly.
Bruno opened the two wooden doors, and saw a small stove inside, and a man was already sitting on the sofa beside the stove.
"Francis?" Genos asked in surprise.
It was Francis who entered the castle with them, and his life and death were unknown because of the butler's pursuit!
When everyone was shocked, the housekeeper bowed silently behind his back and retreated.
Francis changed into a black robe, wore a weird pointed hat, and his eyes became quite deep.
Genos asked again: "You...are you a dead man?"
Francis smiled and said, "It's my first meeting, I'm Francis Frederic."
The corner of Murphy's mouth twitched, because this Francis in front of him also had a weird...girly look?
I saw the ghost third young master raised his orchid fingers, gracefully picked up the black coffee on the table, took a sip, then took out a small silk flower handkerchief, rubbed it on his mouth gracefully, and then lifted it up. Chin, say, "Say hello to your friends."
As soon as he finished speaking, an iron cage in the corner suddenly opened the door.
"Meow--"
With a shrill meow, a black kitten rushed out like lightning, and the Ruyan jumped into Bruno's arms in the forest. The poor little back was still trembling, and the whole tail exploded.
Murphy thought thoughtfully, "Francis?"
The kitten immediately "meowed" and revealed a pair of eyes full of tears from Bruno's arms.
Genos looked up in horror, looked at the person sitting on the sofa, and stammered, "You, you snatched Francis' body, and stuffed his soul into that black cat!!"
"It feels so good to be alive." Francis took out another small fan, covered his mouth, and said with a sweet smile, "This idiot has not waited for me to do it, he is hiding in the cellar where the ice cubes are stored, and was caught The second brother fainted from fright. If I hadn't gone, this body would have frozen to death."
"Does Francis still have to thank you?" Bruno said angrily.
"No thanks, no thanks, oh oh oh." Francis said with a smile, folded the fan, and nodded the sofa in front of him, "Please sit down, I still have some deals to make with you."
Janos shouted: "You are a ghost! Who knows if you have good intentions! Francis has made you into this—!"
"Don't be silly, you're a handsome boy," Francis said, nodding his fingers.
A green poisonous snake suddenly protruded its small triangular head from the back of Genos, and the black snake letter spat out, touching Genos' cheek.
Genos fell into an ice cave, and the blood all over his body froze at once.
The poisonous snake slid down Genos's shoulders slowly, circled around his elbows twice, then played with his waist, hips, thighs and knees, and finally fell quietly to the ground.It scurried into the shadows beneath Francis and disappeared.
Murphy had already sat down on the sofa opposite Francis, and said carelessly, "It's okay to negotiate a deal, but please show your sincerity first."
Francis glanced at Murphy, and suddenly said with some uncertainty: "Are you from the elder brother?"
Murphy smiled and said, "That's right, did Enoch whip you with a belt when he was a child, saying that you were a boy and couldn't raise your orchid fingers?"
"..." The corners of Francis' eyes twitched, and he didn't speak for a while.
"Let's get down to business," Murphy said, "You just said that there is the body of your second brother Janos Frederick in the ice cellar?"
Few people can remember every line of dialogue in such a terrifying time.
Genos himself didn't notice it. He only started to feel scared after hearing what Murphy said.
So far, the ghosts Bruno, Enoch, Caroline, and Francis have all appeared successively. Among the six names, only Genos and Lydia are left... I wonder what kind of curse those two ghosts suffered during their lifetime?
"Hehehe, you really know how to joke," Francis said with a smile, "Second brother hasn't died yet, why is it called a corpse?"
Everyone was shocked.
Lydia said: "It's been 200 years, and he still hasn't died?!"
Francis crossed his legs and said quietly: "Yeah, who knows what the second brother is thinking, he keeps talking about 'Dragon Soul Empire' and 'Freezing Technology' all day long. Like a grandfather... He thinks that 100 years of life is too short, and he disdains to be with ordinary people-this is quite right-anyway, he has studied for more than half a year and frozen his body with ice cubes. Emphasized to us that he is not dead yet, just waiting for humans to thaw him out after 1000 years..."
This concept is so advanced that not even the Frederick family 200 years ago, even a group of modern people can't understand it.
Murphy touched his chin and said, "Oh, it's a feasible strategy."
Then he turned his head and said to Genos: "Congratulations, little brother, you are here for the spring outing."
Genos: "???"
Murphy said: "Don't you understand? Janos Frederick is not dead, there are no undead, and no one is threatening you. You just need to live in peace and stability past eight o'clock in the morning."
As soon as Janos' legs went limp, he collapsed to the ground, weeping with joy.
"Let's get down to business." Francis propped up his chin, his eyes lightly falling on Murphy, "You seem to be their talker, so you will make a deal with me. I want to re-enter human society, I also need a sum of money to buy the spell-casting materials I need—"
"Forget about the materials for casting spells. We are a society ruled by law. If you say that, you will be invited to drink tea." Murphy said, "You can call those 'Chinese medicine'."
Francis: "?"
Murphy said: "And before a sum of money, you also need an ID card, which is used to prove your identity in human society."
Francis said nonchalantly: "I can fake a realistic one."
Murphy said: "It's useless. ID cards are the crystallization of human civilization. Each one is made of the most expensive materials, and is engraved with a special spell emblem by the government before issuing it. Everyone's soul fluctuations are sealed inside, and There are still records in the government center."
Everyone: "???"
Francis frowned: "Is the current human society so troublesome?"
"There are more troublesome things," Murphy continued to open his eyes and said nonsense, "After you go out, you can't move a single step without money. Outside, you have to pay for drinking water, and you have to pay taxes for breathing. If you can't pay the money, they They will lock you up for voluntary labor."
Everyone: "..." Yaoshou!Someone has the audacity to deceive the innocent little ghost!
Francis wrinkled his nose aggrievedly and said, "Then you have to give me an ID card and give me enough money."
"So, my friend," Murphy smiled, "what can you pay for this?"
"I can protect you for three hours," Francis said.
Murphy shook his head: "That's useless."
"Four hours!" Francis said.
But Murphy still shook his head.
"No more!" Francis stomped her feet coquettishly, "If there is any more, Aunt Lydia will definitely be angry with me and won't be with me."
This sentence completely revealed Lydia Frederick's malicious information, which made Lydia who was standing in the corner pale.
Murphy said: "Oh, friend. You forgot that we still have a safe house. It was indeed their mistake to release all the ghosts in it in the first place. But now there are no ghosts in it, why can't we do the opposite So, how about hiding in again?"
Francis pouted: "Then you will come out sooner or later, and Aunt Lydia will be mad and tear you apart."
Murphy said, "Then can you protect us when she's mad?"
Francis shook his head.
Murphy spread his hands: "Isn't that what it is? So your bargaining chips are worthless, so I won't order such precious things as ID cards for you."
Francis was stunned, unable to refute Murphy's seamless logic for a while.After a while, he said, "I, I'm a witch! I have a lot of potions, and I have a black cat. I'm sure I have what you want here!"
Murphy smiled and said, "No, no, the modern society has already thoroughly researched potions. It's not surprising that potions from 200 years ago have already been included in the textbooks of junior high school students."
After he finished speaking, he casually reported a long list of recipes, which made Francis feel dejected.
And everyone behind him: "..." Mo Dan, who the hell is Murphy!who!What kind of boss has appeared among us! !
The little black cat seemed to see hope, and raised its tail anxiously.
All in all, Murphy pressed hard every step of the way, making Francis, who had a soft girl in his heart, helpless.
"I don't care, anyway, I want a noble ID card..." Francis finally cried, "Otherwise, I'll sue my brother!"
The corner of Murphy's mouth twitched, and he said, "It's okay, third brother, I won't make it so difficult for you. Look, it's been 200 years, and in your cellar...do you need to save at least hundreds or even thousands of dollars? A full bottle of potion?"
He rubbed his hands.
Francis' eyes darkened.
The detective said that the third young master has an "unspeakable" curse, so what kind of curse is it?
Lydia believes that at least one more detective's diary must be found to understand the danger and curse of Francis before taking the risk.
