Chapter 782 Annabell fights the Plague Banshee
Xie Yuan did not take the magic lamp that can show the state of the soul.
Because of his powerful soul power, he can clearly see every move made by the wandering soul before death.
All in all, the trapped souls in the Tower of Mouse that cannot be freed come from an inevitable tragedy.
The old lord Wesselad's family is a very normal lord aristocratic family - this "normal" means that he will levy very high taxes on the peasants, and at the same time, the bulk of the taxes will be given to the kingdom's court and favors.
Only a small amount is allocated to your own daily expenses.
Although in the eyes of the peasants, the nobles devoured their harvests and became fat, but in the eyes of the nobles, they were actually living a tight life just like the local farmers.
If this model were placed in the peaceful era, there would not be any big problem. Although the farmers were taken out of the big picture, they still had some food in their belly and had the strength to continue working on the land. However, although the nobles had tight inventories, they had been short of food for many years.
Reciprocation of favors can also allow the noble family to maintain a relatively graceful dignity.
Why is it relative? Because if life was really good, Baron Wesselard's daughter Annabeth would not have come into contact with the fisherman Graham and fell in love with her privately.
But things soon changed dramatically after Nilfgaard's invasion - upon hearing that Nilfgaard's army was about to attack, nobles from all walks of life took their family money and fled to safe places, not only did they not think of defending their homes
country, and let its territory fall into the hands of invaders.
Veselard is no exception. Most of Velen is his territory and he must obey the instructions of Crow's Nest, but he and his family fled to the high tower on Feike Island.
On the island, he was completely indifferent to the suffering of the people of Willen and continued to have fun. He sponsored Alexander, a warlock who studied plague and disease, and used the local people of Willen for him to conduct plague experiments, resulting in the death of a large number of civilians.
Of course, these "enjoyments" are just the imagination of the locals. In fact, Veserad, who has exploited a large amount of the wealth of the people of Velen, is just enough in terms of food and materials.
But the hungry farmers couldn't care less about this. They took advantage of Graham's idea of elopeing with Annabeth and came to the high tower together to open the door.
The lord and his family died in the turmoil in the first wave of contact, but the starving people, who were red-eyed with bloodshed, couldn't care about this and climbed up the tall building directly, preparing to vent their anger on Annabelle.
This is how Xie Yuan read the thoughts of the wandering souls except for the highest place, and understood the story before the formation of the Rat Tower - but the strange thing is that all these hungry people died of disease... and it was a serious disease, which struck very quickly.
This doesn't even think about the normal plague, it seems like a plague with magic power.
After entering the Tower of Rats, Xie Yuan discovered that apart from himself, the only real living creatures here were rats, and in the darkness, a twisted figure even secretly ignited phosphorus fire to guide him upward.
As he went higher, Xie Yuan discovered some souls that appeared after the Rat Tower was formed. These people did not believe in evil and came to this tower to take advantage and steal things. Unfortunately, a powerful force was indeed generated here.
Evil spirit.
So these thieves and scoundrels were directly killed by the power of evil thoughts.
Walking all the way up, Xie Yuan finally reached the top floor. Through the traces of years of caressing, Xie Yuan discovered the mechanism leading to the top floor.
With a "click" sound, the wooden secret door leading to the attic opened automatically, and Xie Yuan was able to go up.
The oncoming scenery made Xie Yuan suddenly think that he had entered the scientific research era of the first half of the twentieth century. Experimental receptors were stored in tubes with formalin, and liquid antiseptic cans stood on both sides.
, and what Xie Yuan saw on the side was the Tao that had been guiding his soul.
However, unlike the distorted appearance that guided him before, this soul now completely retains the good looks in front of him.
And unexpectedly, this soul was conscious: "Why did you leave? You clearly said you loved me."
The voice of this soul is sad, pure, crisp and gentle: "I'm so cold, why doesn't anyone come to save me? I can't leave this place, I can't find the exit..."
As soon as she finished speaking, the spirit Annabeth noticed Xie Yuan looking at her, so she began to respond: "Who are you? Are you here to hurt me too?"
"On the contrary, Miss Annabeth, I am here to liberate you."
Xie Yuan performed a knighthood ceremony seriously, then looked at the marks on the ground and analyzed casually: "Obviously, you should have been handed a bottle of fake death medicine by the mage that day... It's really strange that the mage didn't have to give it to himself. During the dispute,
, you luckily drank a potion that you thought was poison and died, but when you woke up you found that you couldn't move, so you were found to have been eaten by a mouse in great fear and pain, right?"
"You...how do you know so clearly?!" Annabeth was shocked, "You...you just want to watch me at the scene - could it be...were you there at that time?!"
"Miss Annabeth is overly worried. I just came from east of Serikania recently. How could I witness it with my own eyes?"
As he spoke, Xie Yuan raised his hand and showed off his multi-purpose tool: "Actually, this is just a reasonable analysis I made by using this magic item to scan the entire tower to deduce the scene of the incident."
"What a...what a magical item." Annabell couldn't help but exclaimed sadly.
"However, I want to know more," Xie Yuan changed the topic, "whether Graham betrayed you, did he know that you faked your death, and why didn't he find you later?"
"No, Graham wanted to save me, but there were too many of them." Annabeth shook her head sadly, "He shouted "Don't touch her", but they just laughed..."
"So is Graham still alive?" Xie Yuanshou feinted around, "Or did he also die on Fike Island together with the hungry people who came?"
"Graham...no, he is still alive. If he died, I would know it, but he abandoned me and ran away!" Annabeth said at this time, feeling resentful here, "He actually left me alone.
here!"
"Where does Graham live?" Xie Yuan asked calmly.
"He lives in the fishing village directly opposite Fike Island."
"Well, it seems that your death and Grachi's resentment for abandoning you have caused your lingering thoughts to form an evil spirit that is entangled in this tower. It cannot leave the tower or be freed."
Xie Yuan watched Annabei circle around and analyzed calmly: "The root of the curse is probably the power of the bloodline as the heir to the land, or Graham's hatred of separation... Then as long as you can forgive Graham and let go of your obsession
, should be able to lift the curse."
"I...loved him, and if this is the case, I am willing to forgive him, but I must know that he regrets his actions. Bring my bones to him, and he must bury me. We will say goodbye to each other then.
"
Annabeth said this, her face full of hope, "Will you go and tell him? Are you willing to help me do this?"
"I'm sorry, miss, your bones carry too many evil thoughts. It's obvious that you are the most powerful evil spirit entrenched here. If you touch your bones rashly, it will only endanger the people on the mainland... The hungry people in those days harmed your family.
They must die, but they also paid the price with their lives, but most of the other ordinary people on the mainland are innocent."
Xie Yuan said this, and after politely rejecting Annabei's proposal, he changed the topic and changed the plan: "I want to try my method. If it doesn't work, I will find Graham and come to see you. How about
?”
"What do you want to try?!" Annabeth's face was suddenly filled with anger, as if she was extremely dissatisfied with Xie Yuan's rejection of her request.
"Save you!" Xie Yuan suddenly put his hands together and sat cross-legged, his body magnified with light!
"Namo Amitabha Night..." With an empty mind, he formed the Amitabha Meditation Seal with his hands and began to recite the "Rebirth Mantra", a Buddhist mantra used to save the dead.
At this moment, the power of Xie Yuan's body illuminated the entire dark secret room, and even Annabei's body began to produce light... But in fact, it was more like the soul receiving an invisible bright flame.
of burning.
"Ah!!!!" Annabeth screamed in a shrill voice.
With a "bang", the Annabell in front of her disappeared, replaced by a demon spirit floating in the air.
She looks like a sick woman, with her body rotting and oozing with sores, and a group of rats squeaking out of the corner.
But what is even more unforgettable is the very conspicuous part of this demon spirit - a thick and long tongue.
This is Annabelle's true form: the Plague Banshee.
"Hey!!!!" She screamed piercingly towards Xie Yuan.
