After hearing Xie Lun's words and looking at the black-robed nun who was sitting motionless on the stone chair, Irene felt the cold air on the back of her neck, and her body couldn't help but tremble.
She slowly stretched out her hand, trying to lift the black veil covering the nun's face. Xie Lun hugged her and whispered: "It's very ugly. Are you sure you want to watch it?"
Erin gritted her teeth and nodded: "After all... she is my aunt."
Xie Lun sighed and did not stop him.
Erin's fingers trembled as she slowly pinched a corner of the veil, took a deep breath, and then suddenly opened it.
A livid, shriveled and terrifying face appeared in front of Irene.
Even though Irene was mentally prepared, she was so frightened that she threw herself into Xie Lun's arms, but never dared to look back.
Xie Lun patted Irene's back gently, then he stepped forward, looked at the body carefully, and frowned: "It's similar to the body outside. It has been dead for about two or three weeks."
Eileen trembled: "But she...why didn't she rot?"
"The essence and blood in her body were drained out and turned into a mummy, so she didn't rot." Xie Lun clicked his tongue, "It's just that there was no wound on her neck, and I don't know how the essence and blood in her body was drained away. "
Erin felt her body getting cold and said with a trembling voice: "Master Xie Lun, let's get out of here quickly."
Xie Lun nodded, stretched out his hand to lower the veil again, covering the dead mummy, and then walked out of the monastery with Eileen in his arms.
Seeing Sherron and Eileen coming out, Burke quickly stepped forward and asked in a deep voice: "How is it? Has the dean agreed to our entry into the monastery?"
"Her opinion is no longer important," Sherron said to Burke as he motioned for Eileen to go aside to rest. "I guess there is no one alive in the entire monastery."
Burke was stunned. After a moment, he suddenly looked back at the carriage and gritted his teeth: "Could it really be the devil who did it?"
"No, it's another unclean thing." Xie Lun frowned, "Irene and I saw that thing just now. Although it just passed by in a flash, I can also feel how scary that thing is."
Burke swallowed: "What should we do? With such a demon, it is troublesome enough. I didn't expect that there would be an accident in this monastery."
"Why panic," Xie Lun sneered, "One sheep is herding two sheep and she is also driving. At worst, we will kill these two unclean things together."
"As of now, I have all obeyed the orders of the God-giver."
Despite saying this, Burke still frowned.
At this time, a person stumbled from a distance, but it was Franche who was riding away. Just after he left for a while, his horse was gone. It was all dirty and seemed to have rolled in the mud more than a dozen times.
"Help, help!" Franche stretched out his hand and shouted, "God-giver, priest, help!"
"What are you shouting for?" Feichen stepped forward, pushed Franche to the ground, and said angrily, "What happened? Where is your horse?"
"Dead, taken away by evil spirits." Franche said in horror, "There are evil spirits here, there are evil spirits..."
Feichen said angrily: "Nonsense, this is a monastery, but it is a holy place. How can there be evil spirits?"
"It's true, everything I said is true!"
"How dare you say that? I think you don't want to die."
With that said, Feichen pulled out the Desert Eagle and put it on top of Franche's head.
"Stop, Feichen," Beiman said suddenly, "Let him continue. What happened?"
Franche looked so frightened that he stammered: "After I left just now, I wanted to go back to the village quickly, but I soon discovered that I couldn't leave that winding road no matter what. Later. I found a nun in the woods beside the path..."
"Nun?" Sherron interrupted Franche, "Have you seen the other person's appearance clearly? Are you sure she is a nun from the Santa Carta Monastery?"
Franche nodded, but then shook his head and pointed to the body placed under the steps: "The clothes were the same as hers, but the light in the woods was dim and the distance was a bit far, so I didn't see it clearly. The other person’s appearance.”
Xie Lun frowned: "Go on."
Franche took a deep breath and continued: "I didn't dare to come back at that time, so I thought about going into the woods and asking the nun for directions to see what was going on. But when I held the horse, When I entered the woods to look for the nun, I couldn't get close to her no matter how far I walked."
"I didn't know what happened at the time. My mind seemed to have stopped thinking, and I was only focused on chasing the nun. When I finally woke up, I found that I was already in a cemetery. The key is that the graves in that cemetery were still full of soil. It's new, with a cross made of tied branches stuck on it."
"I was startled and wanted to leave hurriedly, but for some reason the horse refused to leave the cemetery and enter the woods. It seemed that there was an extremely scary presence in the woods. In desperation, I had no choice but to abandon the horse and go on my own. I walked into the woods on foot. But when I was almost out of the woods, I suddenly heard the cry of a horse from behind. When I looked back, I saw the nun appearing in the woods again in the distance."
Franche said in a trembling voice: "At this point, how could I still not understand? I escaped right away. As a result, I fell down several times on the way here and almost couldn't come back."
As he spoke, a light white mist filled the surroundings for unknown reasons. The mist became thicker and thicker, blocking the light. It felt like afternoon turned into dusk very quickly.
Franche jumped up from the ground in fright. He didn't care about the gun in Feichen's hand. He hid behind Feichen and stammered: "It's coming, it's coming. There is this kind of white mist in the cemetery and the woods." .”
Xie Lun frowned and said in a deep voice: "Quickly retreat into the monastery."
Burke said urgently: "The iron cage..."
"Beiman, guard the devil with me, and the others should protect Bishop Burke and Sister Irene!"
Xie Lun gave the order and the others took action. Beiman opened the iron cage, and Sherron stretched out his hand to pull Amanda out, pinched the back of her neck, and rushed into the monastery.
After Sherron came in, Feichen quickly closed the monastery door. I saw that although the white mist could pass through the cracks in the door and slowly seep inside, it was finally blocked and would not have much impact on the monastery for the time being.
Sherron handed Amanda to Beiman, pulled Burke to a remote part of the hall, and asked in a low voice: "Does the exorcism ceremony require a specific location, environment, etc.?"
Burke frowned and said, "It would be best in the prayer room."
"Do you know where the holy blood needed to exorcise demons is in the monastery?"
"This is a secret passed down from word to mouth by the abbot of the monastery. Except for the abbot, no other ordinary nuns in the monastery know about it."
"The only thing we can do is search."
"How long will it take for us alone to search such a large monastery?"
Amanda's voice suddenly came from the distance: "Xie Lun, I know where the holy blood is hidden. Let's join forces."
Burke sneered disdainfully: "Devil, what tricks do you want to play again?"
"Shut up, idiot." Amanda said loudly, "There is something more terrifying than me here. If we don't get rid of it first, I'm afraid none of us will be able to leave this monastery alive."
