I work as a housekeeper in Guilou

Chapter 86 The Bloody Castle (Thirty-four)

This is a basement, and the only light comes from the flickering flames of candles on the walls.

There are four cages in the room, which looks like the place Lin Jiangdan described. But the cages are empty.

The air was stale and damp, but otherwise there was no other unpleasant smell. No one should have died here.

The walls are made of rough stones covered with moss, making them look extremely weathered.

Some shelves stood against the wall, covered with thick dust, as if they had not been cleaned for a long time.

The deceitful rose tied the heir tightly, his eyes were split open, and he stared at Xia Qimiao fiercely, but the latter remained unmoved and walked towards the center of the basement.

The stone slab in the center is incompatible with the surroundings. It is a huge circular stone slab with the same symbols engraved on it as those in the ancient books in the mayor's home.

She looked at his face that was already flushed by the vines, waved her hand, and they loosened slightly, and the vines blocking his mouth also retreated.

The heir retched first, then coughed violently, as if he was about to cough out his lungs.

He looked at this vicious woman and was so angry that he couldn't even speak a complete sentence and could only curse.

However, every time he said an insulting word, the vine would give him a big ear-scratcher. He didn't learn to behave until he was beaten until it was as swollen as a pig's head.

"My patience is limited. Do you want to live or die?" Xia Qimiao got straight to the point and found a clean place to sit down.

"Want to die." The heir didn't really want to die, but he was very angry after being played around by this woman just now, so he didn't want to be led by her to fulfill her wish.

Then, he was pierced through the heart by a vine. The vine was pulled out and blood spurted out.

He first felt unspeakable shock, followed by severe pain.

As the heart beats, the pain spreads like ripples, and blood gushes from the wound with the warmth of life.

His breathing became rapid and difficult, and every feeling he felt was so clear that he was facing death clearly.

He could feel life passing by, and despair and powerlessness overwhelmed him.

"Treat him." Xia Qimiao touched the red vine that was wrapped around her neck again and ordered.

It reluctantly let out a "yeah" sound, its voice full of disdain for him.

However, it still obeyed its master's orders and performed healing.

The green light full of vitality rushed into his wound and stopped the bleeding within a few seconds.

New flesh quickly grew out to heal the wound. Only the slightly lighter skin and the holes in the clothes could prove that the attack just now was real.

The heir's face was pale as he narrowly escaped death. If he hadn't been tied up by vines, his legs would have become weak and he would have collapsed on the ground.

"There will be no next time." Xia Qimiao saw that his arrogance was dispelled and gave him an ultimatum.

She repeated the words she just said unhurriedly: "Do you want to die or live?"

Some of the pets she owned were healing pets. Although she was not completely sure that they could be rescued when she gave the order, she would not be able to rescue them if they were not rescued. She could find clues on her own.

"I want to live." At this moment, he didn't dare to be aggressive and answered quickly, for fear that he would make the same mistake again if he was a second too late.

"Let me ask you an answer. Once I find out that you lied and deceived me, you will definitely die."

"I will only tell the truth, I promise." He didn't want to experience the experience just now. The suffocating feeling of being on the verge of death made him want to die just thinking about it.

"First question, where have all the missing women gone?" Xia Qimiao has not forgotten the real mission of this copy, which is to find out the truth about the disappearance.

Although there are many secrets involved in this matter, we cannot ignore one thing and only care about the conspiracy behind it. It is very important to find out the matter itself.

Unexpectedly, he was stunned by the first question. The heir hesitated and broke out in a cold sweat.

Xia Qimiao didn't have much patience, and the devious rose directly stabbed into his palm.

She heard a sharp scream, and she raised her hand to cover her ears.

What happened just now was so fast that it was over before he even had time to scream.

And now, the heartbreaking pain reminded him again, but this time it wouldn't end easily.

"I, I said, they were sacrificed." The heir was crying, and he was shaking in pain.

"Sacrifice?" Xia Qimiao asked.

"Yes, hiss, sacrificed to the sun god."

This answer was too short. She frowned. She didn't want to ask and answer questions like squeezing out toothpaste, so she directly gave the order: "Be more detailed."

The heir didn't know how many times he had greeted her and her parents, but he didn't dare to say it directly, so he could only explain the matter clearly according to her instructions.

"My family worships the God of the Sun, and He likes us to sacrifice monsters to Him. This year, He designated them from this town, so I captured them and sacrificed them."

"Monster?" Xia Qimiao asked.

"Ah, yes, they are just a group of monsters in human skin. They are not human at all, but they pretend to be human and live in the town." The heir's face was distorted, whether it was pain or anger.

"They are not people, what are they?"

The heir was stunned when he heard this, and then gave a weird smile: "Don't you know what they are? You are obviously the same monster as them, a follower of a vampire."

...Don't tell her that Noefels turned the entire town's residents into followers?

Why didn't he say a word about such an important thing?
  Xia Qimiao was speechless. She calmed down her mood, pretended to be unfazed, and asked, "Including your sister?"

The heir laughed softly, his voice sounding a little crazy: "Of course including her monster, her monster."

He repeated it twice, seemingly with serious emotion. And Xia Qimiao is not a person who takes care of other people's emotions, not to mention that he is just a game villain in front of him.

She raised her chin and motioned for him to continue.

The heir was angered by her arrogant attitude, but remembering the painful experience just now and not daring to do anything to her anymore, he could only tuck his tail between his legs.

"A serious disease spread in this town fifteen years ago. Since then, everyone in the town has lost their fertility. These girls are the last newborns."

"They have the aura of life and death in their bodies, so they were chosen as sacrifices by the Sun God."

He felt that if he continued to speak like this, his heinous behavior would be exposed, so he simply put all the blame on the God of the Sun instead of admitting it.

Because if he admits it, there will be only death.

Fortunately, the other party didn't ask any questions. He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, not knowing that he had already stepped half into hell.
