Chapter 39
"Hey! Hey," Bai Xuming patted Charles' pale and purple face, and called out, "Stop pretending."
Charles was gurgling in French, but Bai Xuming couldn't understand a word: "Are you him?" He slapped Charles and said, "Speak English to me."
Bai Xuming tied Shire up. In order not to attract attention, he didn't even dare to turn on the bedside lamp—yes, he finally found the switch of the bedside lamp after going through all kinds of hardships, but he couldn't turn it on.
"Hey," Bai Xuming squeezed Charles' mandible, forcing him to open his mouth: "You are a vampire with sharp teeth, right?"
He repeated it again in English, and Charles nodded weakly.
"Be honest, what do you want to do?"
Xia Er whispered, Bai Xuming didn't dare to get too close for fear that he would play some tricks, so he slapped him again and cursed: "Speak up, I!"
Charles was slapped by him and lost another tooth. He was completely speechless, and opened his mouth to hum.
"Damn it, I pulled out your two dentures." He turned around and took out half a pack of toilet paper to fill Charles' mouth, leaving only two sharp protruding fangs outside.
Bai Xuming thought to himself, it is more reassuring to have these two teeth pulled out by him.He began to look around to see if there was anything that could replace the little hammer.Otherwise, some sandpaper is fine, it is one thing to smooth it out for him.
He just raised his head to look around, when he suddenly heard the sound of something falling to the ground behind him, he felt a chill in his heart, and turned his head to see that it was Ao Xu.
Ao Xu rushed over and hugged him like a big brown bear: "Great, you're fine."
"What can I have...wait a minute," Bai Xuming pushed him away and asked, "How did you know something would happen to me?"
Ao Xu looked at Xia Er, who was lying on the ground and tied like a yam, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh.
Bai Xuming took a breath: "Did you already know that he is a vampire, right?"
Ao Xu looked up: "You also know that he is a vampire?"
Bai Xuming said angrily: "I'm not a fool, he has two big teeth exposed!"
Ao Xu thought to himself, it took you so long to believe that I was a dragon god, I thought you were an atheist.
Charles on the ground snorted twice, probably because he was a little happy to see someone who could speak French, but Bai Xuming kicked him mercilessly and shouted at him: "Shut up, you're talking. "
Then he rushed to Ao Xu and said, "You know he is a vampire, and you didn't tell me?" Speaking of which, the injury on his head started to hurt violently as if he woke up from sleep, and the cramps in his stomach also started again, Bai Xuming felt a little wronged : "Did you tell me earlier that I wouldn't be beaten like this."
After he said it, Ao Xu discovered that there was a coin-sized wound on his hair.His vision is unaffected in the dark, but like an eagle he can only see black and white.
The black wound was hidden under the black hair, so he couldn't see it.Ao Xu said distressedly, "Are you all right?"
"Of course there is something wrong! It hurts me to death." Bai Xuming pushed him away, hungry again, and asked angrily, "Do you have anything to eat?"
"Uh, no."
"What's the use of you, get out of here." Bai Xuming said angrily.
"Don't be angry, I'll help you heal first." Ao Xu thought of his appetite in recent days, and remembered that he only ate so much today. His heart ached so much that he quickly hugged him.
He gathered a ball of light golden air, rolling back and forth on Bai Xuming's wound like a ball of light.When the air comes into contact with the wound, it will produce a little numb feeling, which is a bit comfortable. After 1 minute, the wound will heal and the skin will be intact.
Bai Xuming was still a little angry, but most of his anger had subsided: "Thank you."
"It's my fault, I was wrong."
"That will give you a chance to redeem yourself."
"You said."
"Tell me, why didn't you tell me about him being a vampire?"
Ao Xu stopped talking.
"Okay," Bai Xuming said, "It's okay if you don't want to say it, I'll ask him." He said and kicked Charles in the waist. Although Charles didn't feel any pain, he still felt that his waist was not good: "The two of us grind slowly, and we can always understand."
"If you are so capable, go find me something to eat."
"No," Ao Xu looked at him helplessly: "You are a human being, it is dangerous to be alone with him."
Bai Xuming snorted contemptuously, and said: "Are you mistaken? You have been a nanny since you appeared. Did you take this prisoner? It's all up to me, your father! It's still dangerous... If you don’t know the danger, tell me sooner! Fucking weather forecast and red, yellow and blue warnings, how about you? Get out, I don’t want to see you.”
Ao Xu blushed a little at what he said.Indeed, it took him a lot of effort to locate Bai Xuming under the interference of the spirit weapon, and finally found their location by the moment Xiaolong's aura erupted.By this time, Bai Xuming was already self-reliant.
"Let me tell you, you can look down on human beings, but don't expect me to respect you and listen to your opinions if you look down on me." Bai Xuming faced Ao Xu with a serious tone and calm eyes, and asked, "You won't really Think of yourself as a higher creature?"
higher organisms.
Ao Xu almost wanted to nod. From the bottom of his heart, he really believed that the dragon gods were superior creatures compared to humans. To put it harshly, he felt that as long as it was a creature that could gather energy, it was superior to humans.In the natural world, intelligent humans think they are superior to other non-thinking animals. Similarly, in the world of demon gods, demon gods with the power to gather energy are naturally superior to other humans.
The logic seems to be right.
But Ao Xu couldn't confess to Bai Xuming.Not only because he was pregnant with Xiaolong, or because he was his lover, but because of the fact that he really underestimated Bai Xuming.
Relying on Bai Xuming to find the spiritual weapon, Bai Xuming should be a chess piece for him. He looks good, so it is a high-quality emerald chess piece, and he can take good care of it.But now that the chess piece has its own thinking and actions, is it still a chess piece?
Of course it doesn’t count, Ao Xu knew in his heart that if he still wanted Bai Xuming’s cooperation, then he had to give Bai Xuming a new identity, the identity of a collaborator, and the identity of a companion worthy of honesty and respect.
Humans often say that dogs are friends of human beings, and even blame people who eat dogs for it. But when it comes to really important things, such as money, such as convenience, people don’t really regard dogs as friends. Friends, no one will castrate their friends for convenience, so this so-called equality and fraternity is false, and it is based on the margin of one's own comfort zone. A pet is a pet.
Voluntary giving is pleasant, just like human beings dote on pets; forced giving is unacceptable, just like Ao Xu decided to tell Bai Xuming the truth behind it.
"Okay, I'll tell you." Ao Xu said, "But before that, we have to get something from him first."
Charles was tied to a chair, and the napkin in his mouth was pulled out by Ao Xu, and now he can't close his mouth because of a strained jaw muscle.
Ao Xu asked in French: "Where did you hide the spirit weapon?"
Ciel muttered something like a big tongue.
"what did he say?"
"He said he didn't know what a spirit weapon was."
"What is a spirit weapon?"
"The spirit weapon is... I will explain it later."
Ao Xu asked Xia Er again: "Then why are you looking for him?"
Charles stammered, "I'm cursed, and I guess he can undo it."
"What curse?"
"Well," Charles sighed, "it's a long story."
In the summer of 1860, the British and French allied forces invaded Beijing.At that time, Charles Pinault was still a young vampire who had just been transformed. He was forcibly conscripted into the army and took a ship across the Indian Ocean to China. One day in October, the air was filled with the scent of sweet-scented osmanthus. Under the pretext of being captured and imprisoned in the Old Summer Palace, they invaded this legendary summer palace.
Encouraged by their superiors, they rushed into the Old Summer Palace like wild dogs and ransacked. Charles Pino, a teenager, thought he had a chance from God. Unlike other stupid things, he didn't want calligraphy, paintings, Not china and silk, but jewels, small, fine, and precious jewels.
He hides these items in his shoes, hat and even his underwear to prevent them from being taken away by his superiors.But there are still people who covet his victory.
"I killed someone, and I was a soldier. I was going to be executed. I was very scared, so I tried my best to go to Guangzhou. I wanted to take a boat there and go to India, which was occupied by the British. As long as I disguised myself well, I could Go back smoothly."
God has always cared for him, and Charles Pino arrived in India safely. At that time, the white people in India were mainly British nobles who had obtained the queen's charter to operate in the East India Company, and some were ruffians who had no way out in the British mainland. rogue.Charles Pinault sold some of the jewels in exchange for money and returned to France as a successful businessman.
"But I soon discovered that something was wrong. I couldn't sleep anymore, and I couldn't even suck blood normally." Charles said wearily: "It's been almost 200 years, and I hardly slept. Vampires usually don't grow old, but I have It's getting old."
"I suspect that I am cursed. Except for the Old Summer Palace, I have never done anything harmful to nature. I checked a lot of information and guessed that I probably offended a certain concubine who knows magic. I stole her jewels, and she hated me. "
"No one can save me, wizards in Europe are useless. I tried to give away these jewels, but it didn't work. I even returned the bronze rat head and rabbit head to the Chinese government in the name of Kering for atonement, but it still didn't work." use."
"Until I saw him." Charles' eyes shot at Bai Xuming: "That day at the show, I was sitting under the stage, and he walked by me. At that moment, I was blocked by countless times. The ring of the curse is actually slightly hot, I firmly believe that it is definitely not my illusion, so I sent you an invitation letter."
"Where are the jewels?"
"Can you help me lift the curse?"
"Of course," Ao Xu pretended to be confident: "We are looking for this ominous spiritual weapon."
They dragged Shire to the jewelry suite during the day. This suite is like a gear in the moving mechanism of the entire castle room, and it keeps turning around Bai Xuming's guest room. The position of this room remains the same, it is the core.
The space of the suite is far larger than what you see. It is an old routine of a secret room, a matryoshka-style building.
Charles directed them to the basement. The entire basement looked like a large-scale cult assembly site, with various characters drawing hexagrams or inverted crosses and other strange symbols.
In the center of this room is a pool of black water, the square pool is about one square meter, and a simple light bulb is installed on the ceiling.
"This is the blood of the old wizard," said Shire. "I usually soak these jewels here to purify them."
Ao Xu translated it truthfully, and Bai Xuming was filled with emotion. Feudal superstition really killed people. Didn’t you see the flies flying? It’s still purified, it’s really dirty.
In order not to waste any drop of the precious old wizard's blood, Charles was supported by Bai Xuming, and he found something like a colander in a deep pot to scoop it up, but it didn't come out neatly for a long time.
Ao Xu frowned and asked, "Do you still remember which one you brought to the show?"
"Oh!" Charles slapped his forehead and said, "That one needs to be soaked in the prime number date, and I didn't put it in today." He directed him to take out a small box from the back of a hexagram tapestry: "Have you found it?"
It really is this thing.
A snake-shaped symbol was engraved on the small wooden box like a ghostly talisman. Ao Xu guessed that this was the so-called sealing spell.
He picked up the box and opened it directly, and there was a purple jade ring lying inside, with an inconspicuous gemstone inlaid on the ring.Although it looks inconspicuous, the aura gushing out is like the grandest waterfall, capable of penetrating the entire soul.
It was the first time for Bai Xuming to face the spiritual weapon. The strong aura in the past made the little dragon in his belly feel uncomfortable, and even made him dizzy. Coupled with the unbearable hunger and lack of energy, he passed out on the spot.
The author has something to say: I suddenly discovered that this timeline is arranged... Well, forget it, don't care.
