Bloodline Survival Guide

One class has to dream about going back to London.

Chen Zhen felt as if she had returned to the training classroom of the Ou headquarters.

At that time, Andre was on his left, Lilith was on his right, and some other noble blood races were behind him.On the podium, there is this unsmiling face in front of him.

Everyone was afraid of the Fourth Elder, who was always slapped.Sometimes Chen Zhen even wondered if the Fourth Elder was a killer with no emotions before becoming a blood clan?

He basically doesn't talk nonsense with people, and he speaks as an order. Even if he is standing in the training room to impart knowledge, he is still very noble, glamorous and careful, and he is a textbook-level blood model.

……

Oran's voice was metallic.

"We have fallen into the darkness. We are neither gods, devils, nor human beings. The Eighth Elder has given you the history of blood clans, so you should know that our power is closely related to despair and hatred. If you suspect that God does not love the world, When you doubt purity and goodness, when you yearn for destruction..."

As Oran spoke, he suddenly paused.

He approached the burning candle, and gently blew on the flickering wick.Blowing it in one breath, the candle was not blown out, but burned brighter.

The young vampires listening to the training sat up slightly.

"At that point... you're in despair, if you're desperate to put your sword on the cross, to rebel against God, to rebel against a heaven that doesn't exist and a hypocritical God, to rebel against these false existences, you decide, until you die At that moment all drink blood and live, when going to hell and death...

"Then congratulations everyone, you have ruined yourself, and you have also ruined God."

"Everyone should know that for us, death is a new door to eternal life."

His voice has a heavy sense of history, giving people a heavy chill for no reason.

Olan held the king's staff in his hand and paced slowly in front of the training platform.Then he seemed to have noticed something, stepped off the stage, and tapped the table in front of him with the golden scepter.

"Vidal."

Although Oran's voice still sounded cold and serious, everyone could tell that he was always gentle when speaking to Vidal.

After all, he is the heir of the Great Elder, even the Fourth Elder should be treated differently.Everyone discussed in private, but they didn't dare to criticize anything.

Oran followed his gaze, "The class is boring? You've been looking at the window."

Actually the windows are closed.

Even in the daytime, the gates of this ancient castle are always closed, and all the windows are tightly sealed.There are candles in the room, and they can only look at this faint light, living underground.

In order to ventilate, a row of small holes will be opened under the eaves, and light will come in through there, very thin light.

It also brings in the outside air and the smell of the outside, a small row, neat and pretty.

It is not easy to be able to shine in, just as it is not easy for them to want to go out.

Vidal had been staring at the row of light that had been put in before.

Hearing that he retracted his gaze, the clear blue in his eyes was like a spotless gem.

"No, I'm thinking..." Vidal paused for a moment, with confusion and confusion in his eyes, "Why do we come from despair, yet still live forever in despair. Elder, what are we looking for?"

There was silence in the training room.

Sitting beside him, Lilith's face turned pale with fright.She quietly kicked Vidal's leg under the table, telling him not to argue with the fourth elder.

Oran looked at him blankly for a while, his brows furrowed with indiscernible emotion.

"We're not looking for anything, Vidal." Oran's voice was unusually weary and doubtful, "We came from despair and fear. Immortality is both a gift and a punishment. Our vampires...have a mission, There is a mission that must be borne."

"What mission?" Vidal asked unwillingly.

Oran looked at the royal scepter in his hand, shook his head slightly, but did not answer.

……

"Chen Zhen."

Olan took the roster and counted Chen Zhen's name.

Chen Zhen came back to his senses as if waking up from a dream.

He raised his hand dully, and then he saw Oran looking at himself with interest.

"You don't look Chinese." Oran put down the notebook in his hand, crossed his arms, and asked him in a pure English accent, "Where do you come from?"

Chen Zhen choked.

It was a long time before he raised his head, looked into Oran's dark brown eyes and said, "Despair, death and hell."

It was quiet in the classroom.

After hearing this, Olan smiled at him very shallowly, picked up the roster again without saying anything, "Next, Zheng Mingming."

Chen Zhen felt relieved for no reason.

I was very nervous during a class... It was as if I had returned to Europe and traveled back to the past.

Those pictures were too creepy, it was the double destruction of body and soul, Chen Zhen really still remembers it vividly,

At that time... the Fourth Elder Council was in the forbidden room, holding the king's stick, looking at himself with his limbs bound by iron chains, and said coldly:

"Vidal, are you thirsty? Remember the feeling, get over it—"

……

"You will be our Lord, you must overcome—!"

"Heads up Vidal!"

……

"Vidal, hold on, think about it, in fact, you don't need human blood that much—"

"Hold on to Vidal—"

"Vidal—!"

"Vidal—Vidal—"

……

The fourth elder's voice was undeniably persecuted, earnest and firm——

"Do you think you are really a monster? Only those who cannot control their desire for human blood are monsters who indulge themselves! They are beasts!"

"Vidal - look up at me!"

……

"Chen Xian—Chen Xian—"

Chen Zhen suddenly came back to his senses.

"get out of class is over, Chen Xian..." The people around him poked their shoulders, trying to call him back from his wandering mind, "Why does he seem to have lost his soul, was he too tired last night?" After speaking, he looked at the kiss next to his ear mark.

Chen Zhen rolled her eyes: "...please shut up."

He took a deep breath and saw that Olan had just finished chatting with a few girls and had already left the classroom door.

Chen Zhen put away his things two or three times and chased them out.He didn't stop Oran, and followed him until the two of them reached the teacher's lounge. They entered the door together, and Olan raised his hand to lock the door.

Chen Zhen immediately became nervous.

In fact, everyone is very afraid of the Fourth Elder... For Chen Zhen, this person has many identities - father, teacher, guide, and one is... the supreme monarch who controls power.

His feelings for the Fourth Elder are complicated.

I was very scared, but in fact the two of them walked very close, because the fourth elder loved him very much.

But in front of this person, Chen Zhen always has a sense of nakedness that cannot be hidden, because the other party is too oppressive... His mature temperament is like a mountain, often overwhelming.

Olan took out a cigar from his suit pocket, took out a lighter and lit it, then glanced at Chen Zhen, "Long time no see, student Chen Zhen. In China, I will call you by your Chinese name."

"Elder Oran."

Chen Zhen clenched his fists and bowed to salute, raised his head and asked eagerly, "Elder, Lilith said you were dormant, why did you come to China again?"

Olan looked at Chen Zhen quietly, with a bit of reproach in his expression, "Chen Zhen, it's a 20-year-old problem, don't be impatient."

After Olan finished speaking, Chen Zhen's heart tightened, he closed his eyes, and subconsciously tightened his fingers.

It took him a long time to say sorry in a low voice.

"After all, the body is covered with honey, which will always attract flies. Hibernation is just a trick of mine. I have my own arrangements. Don't worry about it."

Oran was smoking a cigar. His sitting posture, eyes, and every move revealed an old-fashioned aristocratic elegance, "There have been too many changes here, and the headquarters is also in chaos, so I came to look at you."

"Second Elder and Third Elder..." Chen Zhen didn't know what to say, "But what if you left the Ou headquarters?"

"Those are not important now." Oran looked at the smoke on the cigar, "Don't talk about those, let's talk about your situation after you came and report."

Chen Zhen was silent for a while, sorted out his words, and said everything, but concealed Shen Mingguang's part.

After hearing this, Olan lowered his head and took a puff of cigarette, and said to Chen Zhen: "I understand. Now my instruction is that you don't meddle in the affairs of the Liu family, just ignore it. You don't have to go to the wolf king's gift, I will I will attend for you. You pack yourself up tomorrow, I will give you half a year off, you can go on a trip, wherever you want, and all expenses will be drawn from my account according to the usual practice."

Chen Zhen was stunned for a while after listening.

……Walk?

in spite of?

In fact, he should say, yes, I understand.After all, the Fourth Elder is the undisputed presence in the Ou headquarters, and few people would refuse his orders, except for the Second Elder and the Third Elder.

What's more, the Fourth Elder was the trainer who accompanied him growing up. Although he was not a blood clan first embraced by the Fourth Elder, he had a deep affection and had long regarded him as a father, so Chen Zhen seldom disobeyed Alan.

But this time is different.

When Chen Zhen raised his head again, there was some stubbornness in his eyes.

"Elder Oran." His voice didn't hesitate, although it sounded a little trembling, "I know you care and love me, but you can't protect me forever..."

"Why not?" Oran interrupted him in a rare way.

This was an anomaly for Oran, because he rarely interrupted, it was rude.

His tone was still undeniably firm.

"My mission is to protect you for the rest of your life. Unless you step over my dead body, who can touch a hair of yours?"

Chen Zhen sighed deeply.

"Elder, I also have my pride. You can protect me for the rest of my life and let me spend the rest of my life like a fool, but... what do I gain by doing that? I have to grow up."

Oran still shook his head.

He stubbed out the cigar, "In the future, you can experience and grow as much as you want. You must not mess around with this matter. Chen Zhen, this is an order. I will leave tomorrow. I will help you buy a plane ticket and let Lilith accompany you. "

Chen Zhen closed his eyes, and the sudden rising anxiety aroused his rebellious psychology, "I will not leave, and I will continue to investigate the affairs of the Liu family, find out the cause, eliminate the alien party, etc. I'll come by myself."

After he finished speaking, he turned his head away, thinking that he would definitely be beaten this time.Just hit it, come on.

But Oran just looked at him for a while with his usual indifferent expression, pointed to his ear for a while, and asked sharply, "Where did your earrings go? What's that behind your ears? Who bit them?"

Chen Zhen's heart trembled violently, a feeling of imminent disaster when his parents found out about his affair, he pretended to look out of the window naturally, "...Elder, I've finished my words, so I'll step back first."

"Chen Zhen—"

Oran stood up abruptly——

Chen Zhen subconsciously turned around and walked to the door.

"Vidal—! Stop for me!"

Olan called to him in a low voice, Chen Zhen had... opened the door quickly and ran away.

***

Chen Zhen ran out as if fleeing for his life, and rushed to the place where Shen Mingguang asked him to meet at the fastest speed with his schoolbag on his back.

He supported his knees to calm down, calmed down, and then looked up at his... new lover.

The lover stood in the shade, waiting quietly.I didn't look at my phone, I didn't look around, my eyes were fixed on a certain point, I didn't know what I was thinking.

He is wearing a white shirt today with his sleeves rolled up, revealing his strong forearms.Underneath are jeans and high-top canvas shoes. The whole person is clean, young and handsome.

Chen Zhen stopped involuntarily, looked at him, and didn't want to walk over directly.

Seeing him waiting for him and waiting for him intently, Chen Zhen actually felt a sense of fulfillment, which was very beautiful.

He imagined... This is probably eternity, this is the eternal posture.Because Shen Mingguang at this moment belongs to me, he is waiting for me, this period of time belongs to me completely.

Chen Zhen slowed down his breathing.

At this time, someone walked over with a Shiba Inu on a lead. As soon as the chubby dog ​​passed by Shen Mingguang's side, it began to drag its owner to come up to him, and rubbed against Shen Mingguang's feet.

Then Chen Zhen saw Shen Mingguang smiled, lowered his body to tease the dog, and the Shiba Inu rubbed against Shen Mingguang's feet for a long time contentedly, as if it was very comfortable.

Not only is he popular among humans, but animals also seem to like him very much.

I don't know what kind of person he was in love with in the past, why is such a good person not tempted by the other party?

Can't figure it out.

Chen Zhen shook his head, sighed, shook off those thoughts, and walked towards him.

As if there was a sense, just as he walked over, Shen Mingguang looked up and saw him.He first smiled at Chen Zhen, and said loudly, "Don't move, I'll come over."

Chen Zhen stopped obediently.

Immediately, Shen Mingguang trotted over, and it was he who approached Chen Zhen first.

With the warmth in his eyes, he took out something from his jeans and put it behind his back, and asked him with his hands behind his back, "There is a gift for you, guess what it is?"

Chen Zhen had already smelled it, but his heart almost melted from the tenderness in those eyes.

So he, like every mentally retarded person in love, asked him softly——

"What is it?"

Shen Mingguang's smile deepened, and he stretched out his hand and spread it out——

Dotted in his palm are yellow rice-shaped flowers——

Evergreen shrub, 3-5 meters high, also known as rock osmanthus.

Osmanthus fragrans.

Chen Zhen learned it in class.

The rich fragrance came to the nostrils, which made Chen Zhen feel a little euphoric.

Shen Mingguang raised his hand a little and put it in front of Chen Zhen's nose to let him smell it, and asked him in a very light and expectant tone: "A gift for you. This is autumn, do you smell it?"

It's like showing him your heart.

Surrounded by the fragrance, Chen Zhen could only see his own image reflected in Shen Mingguang's pupils.

It's not autumn...

This is... love, right?

Chen Zhen felt his heart beating wildly, although it seemed impossible, he shouldn't have a heartbeat.

This is love... right?

That is.

When human beings have love, do they feel sour and swollen in their hearts, as if they are about to be full, and do they still feel a little anxious?

Chen Zhen felt that his hands were shaking slightly with excitement...

"Don't you like it?" Shen Mingguang asked again, his tone a little uncertain.

Forget it, even if you are a lover, these are enough

... Chen Zhen hypnotized himself, convinced himself, forced himself to believe.

I like him so much, he repeated inwardly, I like him so much...

The last outlet of anxiety was that he reached out to cover Shen Mingguang's palm, covered the strong fragrance, raised his head and kissed Shen Mingguang's warm lips on the university campus where people were coming and going.
