Shao Ci immediately hid in a closet beside him.
I'm really glad that there are enough sundries in this old castle and there are places to hide it. If the old castle was in the state of the dungeon at that time, it would not be easy to hide if it was empty.
Shao Ci saw the light from the gap, and saw two people walking towards this side.
The person in the back held an oil lamp in his hand, and looked like a servant in his attire, while the person in front was one of the two people Shao Ci saw in the room during the day, anyway, he was an older brother of Kevin.
"What are they trying to do at this late hour?" Shao Ci felt that he might have just bumped into something important.
"Master Richard, is it really okay to do this?" The servant behind looked a little apprehensive, "If the master finds out..."
"There's nothing to be afraid of." Richard said indifferently with a haughty look, "It's just a trick to make the day of sacrifice come sooner. Even if my father finds out, he can beat me at most."
"But doing this..." the servant said: "It's not good for Master Kevin..."
"That's just a cripple. If he wasn't used as a sacrifice, he would have been kicked out." Richard said with a cold snort, "Such a waste is an eyesore, so it's better to kill it now. "
Shao Ci: "..." Should I say whether Kevin is miserable or miserable... It seems like he picked it up. Under such circumstances, blackening is normal and can no longer be normal.
"Hurry up, it will be troublesome if you are found out." Richard turned his head to look at the servant behind him, "Splash this blood on the wall, and my father will definitely think that God is angry, and he can quickly deal with that cripple. "
Shao Ci's face suddenly darkened, he couldn't let this happen no matter what, if the sacrifice was advanced, who knows if there will be any troublesome things.
These people don't even know what it means to die if you don't die!
Then let him teach this guy named Richard a good lesson.
Just as Shao Ci was about to use his mental power to exert pressure, he suddenly remembered what happened in the previous dungeon. Speaking of which, since mental power can change into various shapes according to the master's thoughts, there should be many types of attack methods...
Like illusion or something
Shao Ci's eyes lit up, if he used his mental power to control the opponent's mental power to create an illusion, wouldn't it be possible to achieve the effect of illusion
Of course, this trick cannot be used against people with strong mental power, but the Richard in front of him is just a cannon fodder NPC, so it will definitely be no problem to use it for practice.
Shao Ci closed his eyes and enveloped the two people in front of him with mental power.
...
…
Richard walked quickly towards the hall, thinking that the cripple would be killed immediately, and his mood was extremely joyful.
As for why he wants to kill his younger brother, Richard is not very clear. Anyway, he was born to be a beloved existence. Is there any problem with wanting to kill an existence that he doesn't like
As for the godly thing, Richard actually didn't believe it at all, but he didn't say it when he saw his father and others being so fanatical.
As he was walking, Richard suddenly felt that the scene in front of him was very unclear, and the light behind him was much dimmer. He felt displeased at once, and immediately angrily scolded: "You trash, don't you even know how to carry a lamp?"
But there was no sound coming from behind. Richard felt something was wrong, and turned his head. After seeing the scene in front of him, his body became stiff instantly.
There was no one behind him, only the oil lamp was still floating in the air, and the color of the flame became pale under his gaze.
"This? This is..." Richard took a few steps back in fright, leaning against the cold wall, trembling, unable to speak clearly.
How can this happen? He almost thought he was dreaming, but the scene in front of him was so clear that no matter how long he closed his eyes, it didn't disappear.
And the next moment, something even more terrifying happened. The blood in the bucket placed on the ground gushed out and flowed towards him.
"Ah... help!" Richard wanted to run away immediately, but he staggered and fell to the ground. Looking down, he fell to his knees in blood.
Richard was about to go crazy, but when he wanted to get up, he felt his body weighed a thousand pounds, and the blood was increasing, almost drowning most of his body...
When he thought he was going to die like this, Richard suddenly opened his eyes, only to find that he was covered in cold sweat and was sitting in the corridor.
The servant was sitting beside him unconscious, still holding a burning oil lamp in his hand.
"What was that just now..." Richard wiped the cold sweat off his face, as if he could still feel the nausea of the cold and sticky blood rushing into his mouth.
He suddenly remembered the god that his family worshiped, and his heart was shocked. Could it be that all this was the punishment he suffered for not respecting the god
At this time, the servant next to him woke up, rubbed his eyes, and said in surprise: "...Master Richard, did something happen just now?"
"It's nothing." Richard's face sank, "I'm in a bad mood today, I don't want to continue, let's go back."
Thinking of the previous events, Richard couldn't help but shudder, he must not tell what he just saw!
If it was known by others, the person who was sacrificed might be replaced by him. This matter must not let anyone know!
Seeing Richard who hurried back, Shao Ci in the cabinet wiped the cold sweat off his face, feeling very tired physically.
I didn't expect to use so much mental power just to interfere with others to create an illusion. The mental power used is the same thing, but the fine manipulation is more troublesome.
Fortunately, it was successfully completed in the end. It is estimated that Richard did not dare to do anything after seeing the hallucination.
Now that he has learned this trick, it can be said that he has a big killer, and if he encounters anything in the future, he will not be powerless.
"Then I should go back." Shao Ci thought so and walked out of the cabinet. After walking a few steps, he suddenly felt a chill on his back, as if some icy breath sprayed on his neck.
At this moment, goosebumps came out on Shao Ci's body, and he turned his head quickly, but he didn't see anything.
"It's probably just that the windows are not closed..." With this thought in mind, Shao Ci hurried back to the room and soon fell asleep.
Unexpectedly, after such a sleep, he lost consciousness.
When he regained consciousness, a paragraph appeared in his mind.
[The days passed peacefully like this, and after more than ten days, that day finally arrived.]
Shao Ci almost spat out a mouthful of old blood: "!!" What the hell is skipping the time at such a time? !
Sure enough, what he did last night interfered with the development of the original plot. Because there was nothing important, the time was skipped.
Shao Ci got up suddenly, walked towards the room in a hurry, and saw Kevin sitting on the bed reading a book, and greeted him awkwardly when he saw him coming.
Shao Ci breathed a sigh of relief: "Huh..." Fortunately, it seems that nothing happened.
It looks very normal now, but Shao Ci knows that it will definitely not be really normal, otherwise how could the system jump to this day, it is estimated that something big will happen.
Shao Ci was very preoccupied. Looking at the bright sunshine outside the window, he thought that he should take Kevin down for a walk. It would not be good to stay in the room every day.
Although Shao Ci seemed to be just for a moment, in fact, the two had been together for a long time, so Kevin's attitude was much better. After hearing Shao Ci's proposal, he only hesitated and agreed.
At this time, Shao Ci took a look at his legs by the way.
Kevin's legs are very normal, and they haven't even shrunk after a long period of inactivity. They are no different from normal people, and the black mist surrounding those legs is still very thick.
Could it be that the black mist restrained his movements, but at the same time, it also protected his legs
… Why is that.
Shao Ci was a little puzzled. If it was just a sacrifice, there was no need to do it specially, right
If I guessed right, part of the subsequent sacrifice would also be wrapped in black mist like this, and then I couldn’t move. What would happen when Kevin finally lost control of the entire corpse
Is it really as simple as death
Shao Ci knew very well that the ceremony was unsuccessful. After all, Kevin not only survived, he also lived to become the villain boss hundreds of years later.
However, Shao Ci remembered that at that time, Kevin changed countless bodies. Maybe he changed his body not because his body was aging, but because of this ceremony
Ah... These things are just his guesses. How can he know what happened if he doesn't actually look at it.
Shao Ci sighed, as expected, he should pay attention to what happened around him.
Then Shao Ci pushed Kevin in the wheelchair and walked out.
Also, although this room is remote, the stairs next to it lead to the small garden outside. Otherwise, I don’t know how many people I will meet along the way, and I don’t know how troublesome it will be.
At this time, spring came, new buds appeared on the dead trees outside, and the warm sunshine shone on the grass, full of life.
Seeing such a scene, Kevin's expression suddenly became a little relaxed and happy. He hasn't been outside for a long time.
Shao Ci also enjoyed this rare leisure time and took a deep breath of fresh air. If he left this dungeon, he would not know whether he would still be able to see the sun tomorrow...
However, it didn't take long for someone to make trouble.
"Why are you here?" A mocking voice came, and I saw Richard coming out from behind with several servants, with disgust on his face, "I wanted to have a picnic, but now I see you, a cripple, I couldn't even eat the food."
When Shao Ci saw Richard, he was relieved, feeling like he had finally arrived.
Compared with other plots where evil gods appear and ghosts suddenly appear, Richard is nothing to be afraid of at all, he just owes a little bit.
When Kevin saw him, he immediately lowered his head, bit his lower lip, clenched his hands tightly, and said to Shao Ci, "Let's go back."
Where no one was looking, Kevin's eyes were extremely cold. He and the two elder brothers basically had no brotherhood. The elder brother basically regarded him as a transparent person, but the second elder brother Richard came to bully him from time to time.
Kevin also knew that he couldn't compete with him, so he could only bear with it.
And now Shao Ci is just going to go back secretly to put a sack on him and beat him up, so he wants to push Kevin back.
Unexpectedly, Richard looked at him with great interest, "You guys are still alive?"
Shao Ci: "..." Hey, what are you talking about, does he look like someone who is about to die
"Look at you, don't you know?" Richard said in a nasty tone, "The cripple you serve, the people around him will be unlucky one after another, and several of them have died so far... Really Poor, maybe one day it will be your turn."
Kevin grabbed Shao Ci's sleeve subconsciously. Even though Shao Ci said he would stay by his side, he felt a little uneasy.
Shao Ci replied without thinking: "I am very aware of this kind of thing, but I am still ready to take good care of Master Kevin."
"Oh?" Richard was displeased immediately, "What if I give you a chance? I think you're pretty good, would you like to come by my side? It's much better than serving that cripple, and you don't have to worry about your life being in danger. "
Where did this guy get his confidence from? Something will happen if you follow the master who wants to die like this.
If he had really poured blood yesterday, Richard would only have been beaten up if the master found out, and the servant's ending would be hard to say.
After listening to Richard's words, Kevin became more and more nervous, holding Shao Ci's hand tightly.
... He had had enough of the past days. Even though his elder brother was already so happy, did he actually want to take someone away from him
Seeing Kevin like this, Richard felt more and more proud. In this family, he didn't believe that anyone would reject him.
Shao Ci held Kevin's hand back and said, "Thank you, Master Richard, for your kindness, but I have no intention of leaving."
Kevin was stunned for a moment, his pale cheeks flushed a little, he looked down at Shao Ci holding his hand, and suddenly felt warmth in his chest.
Richard became annoyed, "You're just a servant, and you're so shameless, do you think you can refuse my request?"
Shao Ci didn't have the patience to entangle him any longer, and immediately released his mental power, and the others all skipped it lightly, and directly pressed on Richard.
Richard, who was still proud just now, suddenly felt that his body was much heavier, and it became difficult to speak, and his knees couldn't help but want to kneel on the ground.
Richard's face suddenly turned ugly, and he remembered what happened the night before. Sure enough, it was the same as what his father said. Shouldn't he be close to this disabled person
Richard immediately said, "Forget it, it's just a servant." After speaking, he left in a hurry, his back even showing a bit of embarrassment.
And his servants naturally went back together.
Shao Ci said, "Okay, now that they're gone, we can stay here."
Kevin's eyes brightened a lot. He grabbed Shao Ci's sleeve and seemed to be less awkward than before, and said in a low voice, "Thank you."
Shao Ci smiled and patted his head.
However, the matter was not over yet. At night, the owner, who had almost never appeared, came to the room with the butler, expressing indifferently that he would take Kevin away.
They didn't say what they were going to do, after all Shao Ci was just a servant, who would explain his behavior to the servant.
Shao Ci clearly saw that Kevin's face suddenly became much worse, and the hand holding him trembled a little.
Obviously, he was afraid.
The master looked at Kevin as if he was looking at a stranger, no, that was simply looking at an object.
The butler was anxious, and said, "Master Kevin, if you hesitate here again, then you probably won't be able to keep this servant of yours. Don't you really like this servant?"
He also didn't want Shao Ci to be executed because of this moment, after all, it would be quite troublesome to find someone who would do his best to serve this young master.
Hearing what the butler said, Kevin immediately let go of his hand, his voice trembling, "Then, let's go."
They took Kevin and left. Of course, Shao Ci couldn't just wait here, and quietly followed behind.
It seems to know that today is not a good day, and almost everyone has not come out.
No one would think that Shao Ci had the guts to follow, and no one paid attention to what was behind him. In addition, Shao Ci used his mental strength to pay attention to the surrounding scene, so he followed him very smoothly.
Sure enough, they headed towards the basement.
When Shao Ci came to the door of the basement, he suddenly felt an extremely uncomfortable breath coming from inside, which made his body subconsciously feel disgusted, and he didn't even want to open the door.
"Is it the power of the evil god..." Shao Ci gritted his teeth, found a hidden place to hide, and secretly stretched over with his spiritual power.
It doesn't matter if it's just a small amount of mental power.
And if he doesn't work hard now, when it's unavoidable in the future, it is estimated that the ending will only be a dead word.
After entering the basement with mental power, you can clearly feel the appearance of the entire basement.
This basement is not as big as the later dungeon, it is just a whole hall-like existence, and there are complicated magic circles drawn on the ground.
Shao Ci felt that the magic circle was somewhat similar to the one he had seen in the dungeon before, but there were some subtle differences, and he couldn't tell exactly what was different.
At this time, Kevin was already lying on the altar. He seemed very scared, but he couldn't move.
Several people, including the owner and the housekeeper, were praying beside them, chanting something like a spell.
As long as they are normal people, they can see that what they are doing is not good. If you say that there is no problem with God, who will believe it.
Following their incantation, the statue of the evil god in the hall actually shone slightly, and then a force extended from it to the basement, and a vague figure appeared in front of the altar.
After seeing this figure, everyone knelt down on the ground immediately, with fear and fanatical reverence on their faces.
After feeling the power, Shao Ci tried his best to suppress his mental power. The other party's power was too terrifying, and it would be troublesome if he was discovered.
That's why Shao Ci couldn't hear what they were saying clearly, and then saw the figure turn into black mist and wrap around Kevin's arm.
Shao Ci stared at the black shadow within the range of not being noticed by the other party, trying to see something.
When the black shadow completely disappeared, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, as if they were going to celebrate, but the butler put Kevin on the wheelchair.
Shao Ci hurried back to Kevin's room before him.
As a result, he still couldn't figure out how to deal with the evil god. Would it be useful to destroy the statue...
Then Kevin was sent back, and Shao Ci hurried forward.
Kevin's face was terribly pale. When he saw Shao Ci, he stretched out a hand and hugged Shao Ci tightly.
Even though it had been a while, he still remembered the biting coldness that invaded his body just now, and he thought he was going to die just like that.
He still remembered the past in a trance, at that time, his legs also lost feeling under such circumstances.
If this continues, sooner or later he will completely become a useless person, lose consciousness, and die like this...
"What's wrong?" Shao Ci noticed that Kevin was using the hand that was not wrapped in the black mist, and it seemed that his other hand could no longer move.
Kevin's body was still shaking, tears flowed down his face, "I'm so scared... so scared..."
Shao Ci stretched out his hand to stroke his soft hair, and comforted him softly: "Don't be afraid, everything is over."
Kevin cried for a long time before he calmed down. Shao Ci was going to take him to take a bath. After all, his clothes were soaked in cold sweat, and he would definitely catch a cold if he slept directly under such circumstances.
Fortunately, although Kevin was treated poorly, there was still a separate bathroom. Shao Ci burned a bucket of water and carried Kevin into the warm water.
Kevin's figure was very thin before, and he was obviously taken care of by Shao Ci (although it passed in an instant in Shao Ci's place, but what happened during this period is still fast forwarded according to Shao Ci's usual behavior), it has already Much better.
After taking a bath, Kevin's condition improved a lot. Sitting on the bed, he grabbed Shao Ci, raised his head and looked at Shao Ci nervously, and said, "... can you... stay with me... I, I still scared..."
It seems that Kevin is really scared. He is usually so awkward, but now he asks himself to stay.
In fact, Shao Ci also coveted Kevin's big bed for a long time, and the bed in the servant's room was so small that he would fall if he turned over. He was also very hard (although he only slept once).
Shao Ci lay beside Kevin, and soon fell asleep.
Kevin raised his head and looked at Shao Ci, and walked towards him with difficulty. Feeling the warmth of the other person's body, he felt as if he had come alive.
Without Shao Ci, he might have died long ago.
But if he becomes a completely immobile trash, will Shao Ci still stay by his side
Thinking about this, Kevin's heart became heavier, and he grasped Shao Ci's hand tightly with his still moving hand.
How nice it would be if they could be together forever...
