Miranda is a dangerous person now. Knowing that five exorcists have died for her, Owen tried his best to avoid getting too close to her. He didn't even participate in the three of them reading the Bible to Miranda yesterday, let alone at this moment. I personally delivered a cake to her who can move freely.
He, Lucian, and Allen didn't know that Miranda might have killed the exorcist, so it's okay to ask any of them to deliver the cake, but now Owen has chosen him to deliver the cake to Miranda, Su Jinzhi He looked down at the sweet and attractive strawberry cake in the small basket, and then at the three beauties in front of him, thinking that this is indeed a world of faces, and he, an ugly person, would do all the dangerous things Yes, but he still doesn't have the right to refuse.
Taking a deep breath, Su Jinzhi focused all his attention on Miranda, keeping an eye on her movements to prevent her from rushing over and stabbing him. Fortunately, although Miranda's eyes were very unfriendly, she didn't seem to have any intention of seeing blood today.
Su Jinzhi smiled and handed the small basket to her, and said softly, "Miss Miranda, this is a cake from your sister Anne."
Miranda didn't speak, but just stared into his eyes, and after a long while, she suddenly said something that broke Su Jinzhi's heart: "You are so ugly."
Su Jinzhi: "..."
"But..." Miranda approached him suddenly like a lecherous hooligan, her soft fingers nimbly drilled into his sleeve robe and caressed his wrist, with a wicked smile on her lips, "Your skin is really good ,I love so much."
Su Jinzhi shuddered from being touched by her, goosebumps all over his body, he almost dropped the cake to the ground, impolitely put the basket in Miranda's hand, and then hurriedly retreated to the door, and everyone present did not miss it With Miranda's actions just now, surprised eyes fell on Su Jinzhi.
Miranda was still smiling, she grabbed the cake with bare hands from the basket, and bit down hard with her big mouth, the bright red strawberry jam gushed out from the cake, dazzling like thick blood plasma, mixed with the snow-white cream At the same time, Su Jinzhi didn't know why he thought of Uncle Xie's brain all of a sudden, his throat suddenly felt sour and convulsed, and he had a strong desire to vomit. He swallowed several mouthfuls of saliva before suppressing the nausea.
"It's really delicious..." Miranda squinted her eyes in admiration, stretched out her scarlet soft tongue and licked her fingers, from the base of the finger to the tip of her finger, and then licked her fingertips back and forth with her tongue, the action was extremely erotic Meaning, blurred eyes, full of provocation.
Su Jinzhi suddenly felt that he might not be able to love the beautiful girl anymore.
Even Miranda looks very beautiful and cute, as delicate as a doll. Although she is not as sexy as a mature woman at this age, she has a secret seductiveness, not to mention that in this world, girls can marry at the age of fifteen. If the person standing in front of her is another man, say Maybe someone really wants to do something to her.
But now she is making these gestures to seduce the exorcist.
Exorcists are all ascetic monks. They will try their best to restrain their desires. Not only will they not marry others, they will not even be allowed to masturbate, because they are holy and clean, and they must not do any blasphemy.
Lucian, Allen, and Owen also stared at her dumbfounded, completely unbelievable that a noble lady would make such a lewd and obscene gesture, let alone do it to exorcists like them. Their blasphemy!
The devil is still on Miranda's body, this is the devil's provocation to them!
Lucian frowned, and even the cold and arrogant Allen changed his face and immediately opened the Bible and began to chant, while Owen was so angry that his hands were shaking, he held the cross on his chest, and began to read the Bible.
He has been an exorcist for twenty years, so he can recite the words and sentences in the Bible without holding a book. Seeing this, Su Jinzhi quickly opened the black-skinned and red-edged book, frowning like a conscientious The exorcist recited the bible in his hand like that, but he was not a real exorcist after all, and he did not have the ideological consciousness like them, so he still looked at Miranda quietly.
The moment the chanting sounded, the smile on Miranda's face disappeared in an instant. Her wide-eyed expression was ferocious, and the scarlet strawberry juice at the corners of her mouth made her look as terrifying as a man-eating demon.
With a roar, she grabbed the silver fork on the round table and rushed over. The male servants hurried forward to stop her, but today Miranda was even more manic than yesterday. It went straight into the eye of a manservant.
Su Jinzhi choked for breath, and his voice trembled when reciting the Bible. Lucian was fine, but his breathing was a little heavier, and Alan had the biggest reaction, turning his head and closing his eyes.
The injured manservant covered his eyes and fell down, howling on the ground. Seeing that the remaining three manservants could no longer control Miranda, Owen quickly took another small bottle around his neck—the holy water bottle, After pulling out the cork on the bottle, he raised his hand and quickly sprinkled the holy water on Miranda.
"You bastards! Despicable exorcist dogs!" After the holy water fell on Miranda, Miranda screamed miserably. She rolled on the ground covering her head, screaming, "Ah, I I must kill you!"
The day's exorcism ceremony lasted from morning to afternoon, and they kept chanting the Bible. Miranda stopped lying on the ground and fell asleep until the sun deviated from the middle of the sky, but no one dared to move again. she.
The injured male servant had already been carried away, Su Jinzhi looked at the blood stains on the ground, and felt complicated for a while.
"The demon on Miss Miranda is really scary." Lucian came over and patted him on the shoulder, frowning. "Master Owen has used holy water, but he still hasn't driven him away."
"So what's scary?" Allen also spoke, his voice cold and disdainful, as if he had recovered from the bloody and cruel scene just now, "These dirty creatures hiding in the dark will sooner or later Banished by the light."
"Alan is right." Owen nodded to Alan in relief. There was still half of the holy water in the holy water bottle. He re-corked the holy water bottle and said in a deep voice, "Darkness cannot defeat light."
Owen's voice was very firm, and the expression on his face was also very determined, as if he really believed in darkness to overcome light, as he had shown.
"... However, darkness cannot be conquered. Where there is light, there must be darkness. We can only coexist with darkness and protect the light in our hearts from disappearing..."
These are the words recorded in the Bible of this world. Su Jinzhi has already read half of this black-skinned and red-edged Bible.
Putting the gold leaf bookmark in the book, Su Jinzhi sat in the room and chatted with No. 1: "Is darkness really invincible?"
"At least neither you nor I," said One, "and neither can he."
There may be purely good people in this world, who are honest and generous, brave and tolerant, bright and loving, and radiate the great brilliance of justice from the heart to the outside, but there are very few such people, just like a white hair on a black cat. Most people have some flaws more or less, and his heart is not perfect, there will be hidden dark corners, where jealousy, arrogance, greed live... Countless evils, those evils lurk in the darkness In the middle of the plant, once the nutrients are watered, it will germinate and relax the leaves.
Su Jinzhi thought that the "he" mentioned on the 1st was referring to Owen, curled his lips and said, "I think so too."
Just after he finished speaking, there were three soft knocks on the door of the room. Su Jinzhi thought that Lucian or Owen wanted something from him, so he got up from his chair and immediately went to open the door. However, to his surprise, it was the maid who was whipped by Miranda that they met in the garden the day they first came to knock on his door.
The injured part of her face was still wrapped in gauze, and the blue and red bruises on her exposed arms were also proclaiming to others the atrocities committed by Miranda that day.
"Master An Luosi... I am Lina." The maid looked up at him, then quickly lowered her head, and only raised the things in her hand to his face, "Thank you and the other drivers Lord Magician rescued me in the garden that day, I made some strawberry cakes, and I want you to try them."
Strawberry Cake
Hearing what she said, Su Jinzhi immediately looked at the tray in her hand. There was a piece of fresh-cut strawberry cake in the corner of the tray, and the other pieces should have been delivered to Lucien Allen and the others.
He missed the taste of strawberry cake not long ago, but he didn't expect Lina to send the cake now, so Su Jinzhi smiled at her tenderly: "You're welcome, helping the world is our bounden duty."
"But—" Lina seemed anxious, and looked up at him again, her eyes sparkling, "That day, only you protected me..."
Speaking of which, she pursed her lips again, seeming very shy, and stuffed the cake into his arms: "In short, Lina is very grateful to Lord An Luosi!"
Su Jinzhi looked at the back of Lina running away, and held the strawberry cake in place for a few seconds, before realizing that he seemed to have captured the heart of a girl
It seems that Lina has seen the beauty of his soul. Su Jinzhi looked at the cake in his hand and smiled, closed the door, went back to the room, sat down, picked up the silver fork and was about to eat the cake, but for some reason, he saw the bright red dripping strawberries under the warm candlelight, and the crystal clear blood color Jam, Uncle Xie's head full of flesh and blood and brains flashed through his mind for a while, and the scene of blood splattered at the moment when Miranda inserted the silver fork into the servant's eyes appeared again. At this moment, a strawberry was stuck on his silver fork, round and red, like the bloodshot and cracked eyeball of the manservant.
Su Jinzhi suddenly put down the silver fork and covered his mouth and retched a few times, his throat was in constant convulsions with a feeling of vomiting, but he couldn't vomit anything. After the nausea faded away, Su Jinzhi picked up a water glass beside him and took a few sips of clean water. In the silent air, only his breathing could be heard for a moment.
However, it didn't take long for Su Jinzhi to hear a child's small sobs again—from the greenery in the garden outside his window, the voice was low and weak, pitiful.
Su Jinzhi listened carefully for a few seconds, and after confirming that it was not his illusion, he pulled out No. 1 who was about to leave work and asked, "No. 1, is there someone crying outside?"
"Yes." Number One answered him, "Didn't you hear that?"
"Not a ghost?" Su Jinzhi asked suspiciously. Having experienced the previous superstitious world, Su Jinzhi dare not go out alone at night now, so he had to ask if the crying person outside was a ghost.
No. 1 never lied, calmly said: "No." But it's not a human being either.
"Oh." Su Jinzhi was relieved now, "Then you go."
No. 1 bid him a rare farewell: "The host will see you tomorrow."
"Let's go, let's go." Su Jinzhi said as he took his cloak from the hanger and walked towards Lvjing Cong.
"Woo..."
After leaving the room, the crying sound was more pronounced and immature, and the childish voice could not tell the difference between male and female, but he could hear how sad the master was, and he would sniff his nose twice from time to time, and then continue to cry softly after a while, listening to people It hurts so much.
Could it be the scalded child crying again yesterday
Su Jinzhi pushed aside a pile of low shrub leaves, and found a sobbing little boy hugging his knees on the grass. He had short black hair and was only wearing a white shirt and a pair of brown overalls. The cold nights seem unusually thin.
Su Jinzhi walked towards him with light steps, but he was in the bushes, no matter how slight his movements were, he would make a sound.
The little boy suddenly stopped crying when he heard the sound of the branches and leaves being touched, and turned his head to look at Su Jinzhi suddenly, shrinking his neck.
Su Jinzhi was taken aback when he saw his face clearly, his eyes widened slightly, the little boy seemed to have sensed his surprise, he quickly buried his head between his knees, and wrapped his arms tightly around his body, afraid Su Jinzhi saw his face again, but he didn't know if it was because he had been crying for too long just now. After the little boy hugged himself, he hiccupped suddenly, followed by the second, and the third...
He was hiccupping all the time, and his small body twitched non-stop. Looking at the pitiful man, Su Jinzhi looked at him and didn't know why, and his heart softened all of a sudden. He took off his cloak to cover his body, Sitting beside him, he said softly, "Why are you hiding here and crying alone?"
The warm temperature was transmitted from the thick cloak to the body. The little boy paused for a while, poked his head out from the white velvet cloak, looked at Su Jinzhi timidly, then immediately lowered his head and hiccupped softly, as if he felt that he The current appearance was embarrassing and ugly, the little boy pursed his lips and dropped a few eyelids, rolling down the lawn, emerald green leaf tips in the moonlight.
Seeing him crying again, Su Jinzhi was a little embarrassed and blamed himself because he was crying so wronged and pitiful. After all, his performance just now might have hurt him.
In fact, I can't blame Su Jinzhi for being so surprised just now, because this little boy looks different from ordinary people. He has many black spots on his face, the small ones are as big as rice grains, and the big ones are densely packed like a fist. The face spread all the way to the neck, and in some places there were protrusions that looked like black scales, which was extremely weird.
