"Lord Jesus, please inspire my heart to pray, touch me with your hands, and make me strong and courageous in all things..."
"Mr. Barnabas..."
"You are the source of my salvation. I am filled with joy and hope in you. Even when I walk in the darkness, your light always shines..."
Salomon breathed a sigh of relief.
He gave up. He felt that the vampire in front of him might have some mental problems. If the local legend and the facts he investigated were correct, this vampire might have been locked in a coffin and buried underground for two hundred years. It was reasonable for him to have some mental problems.
He looked at the Collins family sitting on the sofa opposite. They didn't react at all to the vampire's behavior. Instead, they served Salomon cookies. Even Caroline, who was very wild, relaxed and took care of herself.
Fidgeting with her nails.
Only David Collins tried to stop Barnabas, but he too was pulled into prayer.
"Young Master David," the vampire said, "I have sold my soul to the devil. Now I can only ascend to heaven by praying."
"Does he...do this often?" Salomon refused the dessert offered by the Collins family. He pointed at his head and asked the Collins family.
"Often. As long as Victoria is away, he will be like this." The silver-haired Elizabeth did not mind Salomon's refusal of food. She said to Salomon solemnly, "Before you came, there was
Many people came to our house and claimed that they could help us lift the curse. Only when our ancestors appeared in front of us did we know that the curse was true."
"The black magic in that book can only be solved in the Book of Weishan Emperor." Salomon shook his head, "But, Ms. Elizabeth, my purpose is to find that book, or rather
, the paper or book that copied that knowledge. This is my purpose."
"I can help you." Barnabas jumped up from the ground. He sat next to Salomon in the air-conditioning. His movements were astonishingly fast. "Angel's collection has become a relic and is stored in the museum.
"But this is the port of Corinth, which was established by the Corinth family. I can help you get those things, but..."
"Relic?" Salomon asked, "That's my first question, where is Angelique Bouchard?"
"She's dead." Barnabas pouted, his eyes looking down, his hands resting on his cane, his fingers moving restlessly, "She died here, under her own curse."
Seeing the confusion on Salomon's face, Barnabas then told his past events, "This is my fault," the vampire said.
This matter begins in 1750. At that time, Joshua Collins and Naomi Collins brought their young son, Barnabas Collins (the vampire pointed to himself), all the way from England to the United States.
They wanted to pursue a better life, so they established their own fishing kingdom in a small town on the coast of Maine, and named it after themselves - Port Corinth.
"Colin Manor was also built at that time." The vampire pointed around, "But it's not the current one. This was renovated later. I think you should know this. The original Colin Manor took fifteen years to build.
It was built, and twenty years later, I have grown up."
Barnabas Collins was rich and powerful, but he was still a romantic playboy. Until one day, he made a mistake that he regretted deeply. At this point, the vampire stood up,
He raised one hand as if knocking something.
"I fell in love with a beauty named Josette Du Plessis." Barnabas said sadly, "but Angelique Bouchard's heart was broken by me, because
I can't marry her."
Barnabas still remembers the gloomy weather and the biting cold wind blowing from the sea that day. That day, Angel controlled Josette to jump off the cliff and fell on the rocks by the sea.
Barnabas was distraught and jumped down.
"But she cursed me and wanted me to experience a fate worse than death!" The vampire waved his arms excitedly. He walked around the living room, his steps quick, and the sound of leather shoes hitting the marble floor kept ringing, "Until
The cold water woke me up. When I woke up from the rocks, I found Josette lying next to me. Her body had become cold, and my fingers became extremely sharp, and my eyes were bleeding.
, like the devil from hell came to the world, I saw the witch standing on the top of the mountain, and she cursed me loudly! I was extremely thirsty, and no matter how much water I drank, I could not suppress this desire. I could never appear in the sun.
.Angelique cursed me to become a vampire, so that my pain will never end."
"I think you know what happened next. Angelique led the villagers holding torches to the Colin Manor. She identified me as the devil, and the villagers sealed me in a coffin and buried me underground." The vampire.
His tone became slower, "Two hundred years later, I was dug out and returned here."
"At that time, only Elizabeth believed in my identity. Of course, it was not because my portrait was hanging in the living room." The vampire pointed to the wall, where his portrait was hanging. It was one of the few that had escaped the fire.
"Until one day, a governess named Victoria Winters came to Colin Manor."
According to Barnabas, this Victoria looked exactly like Josette. After he returned to the family, he sold the family's treasures and allowed the Corinthian family to develop again. At the same time, he also had a mutual affection with Victoria, and everything changed.
It's so beautiful.
"But what you said is that it is the most fertile buttocks you have ever seen." Caroline did not leave any face to her ancestors. But Barnabas ignored her.
"But! That witch! Angelique Bouchard knew the fact that I woke up!" The vampire's emotions became excited again, "The Bay of Angels she created controls most of the fishery in Corinth Port, making it difficult for the Corinth family to make ends meet!
She spread her hatred to the Corinthian family, and she wanted to let the Corinthian family's blood flow onto the streets! This is something I can't tolerate! When I woke up, she wanted to repeat what she did to Josette in Victoria.
It’s okay! That vicious woman!”
"Anyway, we had a fight when she tried to use her old tricks to trick the residents and the police into arresting me. Her skin shattered like glass, and Collingwood Manor burst into flames. The Collins family
The most important property was burned to the ground."
"Yes, she took out her heart, which was like pink glass and full of cracks." Barnabas said in a low voice, "I watched her heart break into pieces with my own eyes. She was like
It's like a doll, motionless."
"What an interesting story, Mr. Barnabas." Salomon secretly increased his vigilance and took out a few pieces of printing paper from the small bag on his waist. He smiled and said to the vampire, "Then, can you talk to me?
Tell me, which murders were you committed?"
