Man in the old days, Lord of the Seven Sins

Chapter 31 She's Stopping You

At midnight, the rain gradually stopped.

The east side of the unnamed village.

In the area near the church, there is a farm covering an area of ​​more than ten acres.

This is the home where the only elder Woda in the village lives. Together with his three sons and two daughters, they all live on the farm.

As an elder, in addition to presiding over the affairs of the village, Voda is also the only priest of the church.

Every year in mid-April, he will be responsible for bringing the servants of the Lord into the residence of the Lord.

No one knew where the Lord lived except Woda, and someone tried to replace Woda as the Lord's priest, but that person disappeared the next day.

From then on, the whole village knew that Voda was the only priest chosen by the Lord.

At the edge of the farm, Rhodes finished digesting the information about Voda that Martin had narrated.

He glanced at the walls made of green vines and fences around the farm,
Something seemed to be wriggling among the vines in the darkness.

Rhodes stretched out his hand and lightly pinched a vine with a reddish-brown sticky gel floating on the surface. With his fingers exerting force, the vine slowly wriggled and contracted as if feeling something.

"There is blood on the vines, the freshness should be left recently, Martin, stay away from these vines, they are weird."

Rhodes' reminder made Martin, who was walking close to the vines, pause, and an embarrassed smile appeared on his face. No wonder he had a feeling that something was touching him from the very beginning.

But every time I turned around and turned around, I didn't find the existence of that thing.

He carefully stepped aside a bit, but unfortunately, the thing seemed to wrap itself around him.

Under the mask, Rhodes narrowed his eyes, and he looked at Martin's feet, where a wriggling vine carefully followed Martin's feet.

Touch Martin's body now and then.

It doesn't look like an attack, but like a child's play, the vines are endowed with a child's nature.

"Martin, does Woda have a grandson or granddaughter?" Rhodes asked in a low voice.

"I remember, he has a granddaughter named Worthy, who just came back a few days ago." Martin recalled, he did meet Worda's granddaughter some time ago, she was a very cute little girl who liked plants very much, And, there is an intimate memory with him.

"Well, does she have any hobbies?" Rhodes squinted and asked again.

"Last time I saw her in the street market and bought a green vine. She was a very sunny little girl. I remember she greeted me." A smile appeared on Martin's pale face.

"She was very kind. In order to protect a homeless man who escaped from old London, she was almost thrown down by wild dogs. She gave the homeless man a new life."

While Voda is hideous, his granddaughter is indeed cute and quite kind.

For Martin, Worthy is simply the angel who saved him.

Moreover, his granddaughter was born to his second daughter. His second daughter had left the village a long time ago and came back only recently. Martin felt that there were still good people in Voda's family.

"Oh."

Rhodes ignored the creeping vines beside him.

"My lord, is there any question?" Martin wondered why the epidemic doctor suddenly asked such a question, and he couldn't help asking.

"It's nothing, just hope it's not what I guessed."

Rhodes shook his head, but did not tell Martin about the things recorded in Robert's notes.

This kind of thing is too cruel.

The two walked in through a decayed hole in the ranch.

The grassland where the shrubs, weeds, and water puddles gather, the surrounding environment is not clear due to the darkness, but some large buildings can be roughly distinguished.

"Master Epidemic Doctor, Voda lives in the house over there, and he usually goes to the farmhouse next to the house to feed the cows and horses." Martin pointed to a two-story villa in the distance in the dark.

"Well, let's go."

"it is good"

Martin wanted to refuse, but due to the means of the epidemic doctor, he could only force himself to move forward.

Martin walked toward the house.

Rhodes stood still, and he glanced at the green vines behind Martin.

The green vine seemed to be aware of it, shaking its branches and grabbing Martin's leg.

Martin fell and ate shit.

His face hit the ground in the softened cow dung.

At this moment, his legs were entangled, and he wanted to cry out, but his mouth was entangled by vines in the next second, and the whole cow dung was stuck on his face. Whimpering and struggling, he reached out to Rhodes for help.

Rhodes watched all this quietly without moving.

The vines are not trying to hurt Martin, but more like preventing Martin from going to the house.

The vines dragged Martin, pulled him back to Rhodes, and at the same time wiped off the cow dung on Martin's face, and finally retracted quietly into the grass beside him.

Martin, who was in a state of panic all the time, recovered from being restrained, pulled out the dagger from his waist, and wanted to attack the vines that attacked him with red eyes.

Vines burst from the grass behind Martin, waving their branches defiantly.

Martin jumped on it.

The vines dodged Martin's attacks like a child.

Martin was turned around, and finally lay down on the lawn, gasping for breath.

Beside him, a small vine swayed its branches, like a child announcing its victory.

Rhodes watched all this calmly, and he walked over.

Under Martin's shocked gaze, he reached out and touched the little red flower on the vine branch.

"She is stopping you, there is danger there." Rhodes whispered.

Martin didn't understand, but he hadn't been hurt since just now.

"But if she's really stopping me, where's the blood on the rest of her vines?"

Between doubts.

In the quiet darkness, a strange murmur suddenly sounded.

In the shadows in the distance, a large number of moving figures either crawled, crawled, or stiffened and walked towards the house one after another.

those figures
Martin narrowed his eyes, trying to see clearly.

He vaguely saw some familiar figures, but now they, no, or they have all turned into monsters.

On the body, a large number of wriggling insects swayed, sticky, dirty, ugly and swollen strange body.

Constantly hitting the house.

There were screams in the house.

"Worthy, you bloody little bastard, hurry up and help Auntie drive these dirty things away!"

"Do you want to see your mother killed by your grandfather himself!?"

The vines rushed over, whipping the lowly demons that attacked the house continuously.

"Worthy?"

Looking at the vine, Martin seemed to understand something.

But there are some things, it's okay if you don't understand, once you understand, Martin feels his head is congested and his fists are hard.

Even, the screaming and cursing in the room broke the only fantasy in Martin's heart.

The little angel who saved him as a homeless man, Worthy, may well have been turned into a vine by her family!
Martin felt like he was going crazy.

Although he is a hypocritical and cowardly person, at least he knows who has been kind to him.

Unable to control his body, he rushed towards the house.

He wants those hateful maggots to pay the price!

Snapped!
Martin's head was pushed to the ground by Rhodes.

"Idiot, have you forgotten what our purpose is?
Catch Woda as soon as possible, maybe Woxie can still be saved. "
