Dulan's eyes suddenly opened wide, and his teeth could not help but tremble. What a terrifying scene this was - a large hole was quietly exposed at the shoulder of the beautiful pleated dress, and the top of his white neck was covered with black paint.
A piece of paint, oh no, Dulan could see the rich red color on his neck, as if countless blood fountains were gushing out in an instant.
Dulan staggered back two steps, but accidentally knocked over the candle on the table while waving his hand.
The candle fell to the ground, struggled a little, and finally slowly extinguished.
Dulan was covered in cold sweat, and the image of the headless girl lingered in his mind like a nightmare. The sweat on his back was pouring down, and his whole body was weak. If the ghost brothers still had a personality, then the one in front of him
girl......
He tried to grasp the oak thorn, but found that his arms were gradually becoming weak.
The girl's sigh came again in the darkness.
"You shouldn't have looked back..." The girl's murmur was like the most terrifying curse, making people shudder: "You shouldn't have looked back. My head was cut off by the devil. If anyone sees me, then I
His head must be taken away."
Dulan's scalp was numb and almost numb. He breathed violently and told himself: This is nothing, nothing, it's just that he has no head...
He tried to think of some funny things to relieve the strong visual impact he received.
"Now, I'm going to cut off your head..." The girl whispered as if in a dream, her voice was soft and gentle, but the content of her words suddenly woke Dulan up.
Before he could react effectively, a gust of cold wind blew in his face, and the headless girl suddenly appeared in front of him.
The cold nails suddenly lengthened under Dulan's eyes. The nails were as sharp as daggers, and shone with a heart-stopping coldness under the faint firelight in the corridor. The faint fragrance of jasmine penetrated Dulan's nose, and the pleated skirt
Flying in front of him, the place where the head should have been was still empty. The girl's movements were extremely fast, and her nails were smeared on Dulan's neck almost in an instant.
"Wait, can I buy a bouquet of flowers?"
At the critical moment, the weak Dulan seemed to be grasping the last straw like a drowning man, and squeezed out these words from the gap between his teeth.
He was really helpless. The fearful impact the headless girl had on him was not only visual, but also a spiritual impact from the heart. Duran bet that this girl must have a curse or psychic passive spell on her body.
Anyone who sees her is equivalent to being under a "fear spell".
This kind of psychic spell has no direct damage ability, but it is enough to make Duran, a small assassin apprentice, lose all his combat ability.
He had no choice but to shout such a sentence, which was completely treating a dead horse as a living horse.
Who knew that Dulan's casual shouting would actually have an effect - the cold nails pinched Dulan's artery, the sharp edge suddenly retreated, and the girl's gentle voice rang out again: "Red roses"
, golden iris, which one do you want, sir?"
Dulan sat on the dusty desk behind him with lingering fear, and then subconsciously moved back.
He tried to ask: "Is there anything else?"
The white dress suddenly floated back, and the headless girl's voice came from all directions: "You saw my appearance, I should take your head... But since you want to buy flowers, we can change the way
.”
The girl's words made Duran a little confused, but his purpose was to delay time. Because as time passed, the effect of the fear spell was constantly being eliminated, and his strength was slowly recovering.
So he asked: "What happened? Why did you take my head? Where is Peron? And the Schubert brothers? What happened in this house?"
"You have a lot of problems, sir." The girl's voice seemed to be complaining with a frown, "I told you, my name is Anna. This is Veron's home. The power of the devil envelopes this house, so the living
People will encounter many unusual things when they break in."
Dulan asked: "Miss Anna, can you tell me where the devil is?"
The task Duran accepted was to clean up the House of Peron, that is, to purify the evil forces here. The ghost Schubert brothers, the headless girl and the ghost of Peron were all caused by this legendary demon. If he could
If we directly find this demon and eradicate it, then the mission will be completed.
"You can't find him, you can't find him." The girl murmured: "The homeless brother was killed by him, brutally killed. And then there was me. We were all controlled by his evil power and destined to live forever.
Can’t be detached.”
"No, you can." Dulan said quickly: "I can help you, but only if you tell me more information. Did you see the holy water in my hand? This is something produced by the Church of the Dawn, and I
I was ordered to come and deal with the evil forces here."
At this point, Duran couldn't help but play a word game - he was indeed ordered to come, but not under the order of the bishop of the Church of the Dawn, but the order of the Supreme Council. People living in the Bone Burial Village should have
They are all descendants of the Yujin people, and the Lord of the Dawn is of indescribable importance to them.
"Oh? Are you sent by the Lord?" The girl's voice flashed with excitement unconsciously: "Can you kill the devil? Oh no, your power is too weak, even I can kill you easily
.”
Seeing that the girl's mood seemed to be unstable, Duran hurriedly said: "I have a way to kill the demon, but this weapon cannot be easily revealed to others. Listen, if you also want to get rid of the shackles of the demon, I need your
help."
The girl was silent for a while, then suddenly said: "I'm sorry, I can't help you, I have to kill you."
Dulan's nerves tightened, he held the oak thorn, and asked puzzledly: "Why?"
The girl said silently: "There is no reason, I have died a long time ago, and now my resentment is dominating my mutilated body. I have no head, I have lost my mind, and I can only be at the mercy of the devil. I cannot say his name,
I can't tell you where he is. If anyone sees me, then I must go all out to cause trouble for him and let him die. This is the rule set by the devil for me."
"Can't the rules be changed?" Du Lan's heart moved and he immediately said: "Just now you clearly said that if I want to buy flowers, we can change the way."
The girl was silent for a while, and then a cold voice came from the darkness: "A long time ago, I was a girl selling flowers. Every morning I would go to the flower garden to talk to the flowers, and then I would pick up flowers from them.
Three bunches, go to the town and sell them to other people who like them. For so many years, I have lived in darkness all day long, and only these flowers have accompanied me."
"I will take three kinds of flowers from my flower basket. If you can tell me their flower language correctly, I will let you go."
Dulan felt a little uneasy, Huayu? He hadn't paid much attention to this thing.
Some of the meanings represented by the plants and flowers in Feinan's continent are quite similar to those on Earth, while others are completely different. Although Dulan has read a large amount of Feinan's information, he has not yet recorded the meanings of all the flowers in detail.
situation.
But now that there is an opportunity without fighting, Dulan will naturally not give up.
"Okay, I'll try."
The girl stopped talking. The faint fragrance of flowers suddenly came over, and a delicate flower basket with a shimmering light fell on the table in front of Dulan.
"It seems you are lucky. The first bouquet of flowers is roses." The girl said, "What is the language of her flowers?"
Dulan calmed down, and he still had some impression of the rose. Although it was not a red rose that lovers gave each other when they fell in love, but a goose-yellow rose, Dulan could still tell the answer:
"As far as I know, yellow roses represent infidelity, jealousy, happiness and apology. On the one hand, for friendship, yellow roses represent pure friendship and beautiful blessings; however, for love, yellow roses symbolize ominousness - because it
Represents jealousy, lost love and lost love.”
In fact, the reason why Dulan was able to explain the flower language of yellow roses so clearly was thanks to a famous story in the history of Feinan Continent. This story tells the story of a pair of lovers who fell in love but were ultimately separated because of fate.
In this story, Yellow Rose played a very important role. When Dulan was reading these historical materials, he happened to see such a story and was quite impressed by it.
"Perfect interpretation." The girl's voice finally stopped sounding so raw, "Let's continue."
The second bouquet of flowers fell into the flower basket.
Dulan's luck is still good. This is a bouquet of purple iris, which is also a very common flower on the earth. Its flower language is not an obscure knowledge. Dulan passed it smoothly.
The last bouquet of flowers had light blue petals wrapped around beautiful stamens. Seeing this bouquet of flowers appear, Du Lan couldn't help but feel a little bit in his heart.
"It's actually Platycodon..."
Du Lan scratched his head, feeling a little difficult.
The flower language of Platycodon flower is quite simple, and Du Lan remembers it clearly, but the problem is that Platycodon flower actually has two flower languages - these two flower languages represent completely opposite meanings.
The headless girl smiled lowly: "The last bunch, if you say it right, you will be safe."
"Platycodon flower, Platycodon flower..." Dulan paced back and forth in the small space. The girl didn't seem to be in a hurry, and the low singing voice came from all directions again:
"My head was cut off by the devil
Overturned basket blossoms in the corner
Dear lover
Cold lover
My head was cut off by the devil
Who can find her among the flowers in the basket?
red rose purple iris
Beloved lover
Indifferent lover
My head was cut off by the devil..."
The song was resentful and low, full of painful emotions. Dulan savored it for a while and finally made a decision:
"Platycodon flowers represent hopeless love."
The singing stopped suddenly, and the girl in the darkness whispered:
"you can go now."
Dulan took a deep breath: "Please tell me, where is the devil?"
This house is full of weirdness. It's hard for Dulan to find someone who is clear-headed and can talk to him. Why is he willing to run around like a headless chicken again? In the task of cleaning up the Belon House, the source of everything lies in that devil. Dulan
Lan estimated that his final opponent would probably be this guy.
The girl suddenly started sobbing: "I'm sorry, I can't say it, I'm sorry... please go quickly and leave this house."
Dulan was very depressed about leaving your sister. If he didn't complete the mission, how could he leave? I guess the Supreme Council didn't have any tolerance for mission failure, right?
"I can't leave. No matter you help me or not, I have to find that devil. This is my mission." Duran said.
The girl hesitated for a while, and suddenly there was a creaking sound in the bathroom.
"The devil is in the attic...you, be careful." The girl's voice was so soft that it brushed past Dulan's ear.
Attic? Is it in the bathroom?
Du Lan re-entered the bathroom, and sure enough he found a hole in the ceiling, and behind the small door of the bathroom, there was an escalator standing quietly.
"It turns out to be here!" Dulan no longer hesitated, directly moved the escalator and climbed up quickly.
