MTL - Whispering Verse-Chapter 1429 Miss Gold's Package

"You're interested in that?" Sean Asmond laughed.

"Of course, the reason why I came to this place is actually related to this. I'm planning a story about demons, contracts and love, and the local rumors are very interesting. I also know some things, why don't we exchange information?"

Xia De suggested that he didn't know whether Mr. Asmond knew what he didn't know, but he wanted to remind this gentleman that this place was dangerous, and it was best not to investigate casually.

"Okay, let's exchange information."

The demon scholar lowered his head slightly, but his eyes looked up, staring at Shad over the gas lamp:

"First of all, I investigated the Randall Valley. Thousands of years ago, there was a prosperous ancient kingdom called 'Stonyville Kingdom'. And this kingdom was destroyed because of the contract between the king and the devil."

Although this information is secret, in fact, many folklorists can find it. Mr. Asmond's ability to say so shows that he has indeed started an investigation. Compared with Coldwater Harbor, Fort Midhill, and Huntington, the scholar is closer to his goal this time.

Xia De nodded:

"It is rumored that there is an evil existence with the symbol of "petrified rose" in the local area. But no matter how terrifying that existence is, it still fears the Orthodox Church. Therefore, the rumors about the demon only appear in the countryside and forests of the Randall Valley. On the contrary, people in the city rarely hear stories about the demon and think it is A superstition among country women. "

Mr. Sean Asmond nodded slightly, recorded a few lines in his dilapidated notebook, and then continued;

"There are various bizarre legends and stories about the demise of the ancient Kingdom of Stonewell. I heard a very interesting version from the local area: In order to maintain the prosperity and stability of the kingdom, the king obtained a Heart of Stone by trading with the devil, but the price It is he who has lost all emotion, the ability to love and be loved."

The corners of Mr. Asmond's mouth curled up, and he smiled:

"The king who didn't understand love blocked the whole country and plunged the kingdom into a cold winter that would never wake up. He wanted to avoid it, but the devil" collected debts and took away his soul. But the devil posted a notice and issued a commission, and found a A demon hunter passing through the local area entrusted him to collect debts. In the end, the demon hunter helped the demon complete the contract and got the king’s soul, but at the same time, he exiled and sealed the demon through the entrusted contract with the demon. Four hundred years ago in modern times, the demon returned because of the 1498 Randall Valley Earthquake."

"Quite an interesting story, not as moral as the long story we've been talking about, but this one is more of a knight."

Xia De commented that he didn't know whether the demon scholar's version of the story was true or not. However, he still gave the information he knew:

"In the wild ages before the common calendar, there was a 'saint' in the Church of the Sun in the local area, that is, 'Sister St. Perry. The story of this nun is still circulating in today's Randall Valley. St. Perry The cemetery once became a local force to check and balance the demons. I heard that at the beginning of this year, the archaeological discoveries of the local church confirmed the existence of St. Perry's cemetery, which is in Tahiti near the Innes Forest. "

"oh?"

Mr. Asmond showed an expression of interest, and Shad told him the approximate location of the church. He wasn't afraid that Mr. Asmond could really find it in the forest. There was a lot of information from the Fifth Era in that cemetery, and the church's peripheral rituals could prevent anyone from finding it.

In return for Xia De, Mr. Asmond also gave Xia De, the seal of the rumored demon. Compared with the vague location given by Shad, the location given by Mr. Asmond is much more detailed.

The two expressed their views on the local demon rumors, and Shade also advised Mr. Sean Asmond during the conversation, it is best not to go out of the city casually recently:

"The situation in the Randall Valley is in turmoil recently. It's not just the plague. Have you heard about the Stonemasons' Association? The city is full of heretics recently, and the local demon legends are really frightening. Maybe wait until the situation in the city stabilizes." In the future, it will be considered safe to visit those legends and stories

. "

Mr. Asmond raised his mouth and looked at Shad:

"Remember what I said when we first met? I have always avoided direct contact and keeping, any items related to demons. Although the rumors of demons in Randall Valley are very interesting, to me It is enough. What you said makes sense, I plan to stay here until spring, and wait until the weather is slightly warmer before considering whether to continue my local investigation or go to a new city.”

"It's a good plan, so I look forward to our next meeting. Oh, I'm really looking forward to the continuation of that demon story."

Xia De said, and began to recycle his own items on the table, including the hilt and the Rhodes deck. It was getting late, and he planned to go back.

"Yes, look forward to meeting you next time, my friend."

The demon scholar said, seeing Xia De packing up his things, he looked at the withered black rose again: "This, can you give it to me?"

"Of course, it's just a withered flower."

Xia De nodded, although it was brought by the devil, the flower was just to warn Xia De, it knew every contact between Xia De and Oxenfurt, Xia De also checked, this flower has no abnormal ability.

After packing up his things, Xia De stretched out his hand and shook Mr. Sean Asmond's broad but slightly withered hand, then walked through the joking crowd to the counter to pay.

When he took back the change he had found, he stood by the busy counter again, and turned to look at Mr. Asmond, who was sitting alone in the corner, wearing an old yellow robe and bald with stubble, the latter toasted Shad shook.

Xia De nodded with a smile, and then walked towards the door of the tavern on the side. Pushing open the door, I entered the night in the countryside. The cold wind outside the door made my head suddenly sober, and the closed door also shut off the noisy voice behind me.

Put your hands in your pockets, look up at the clear night sky in the countryside and the stars all over the sky. In the distance came the sound of a vicious woman yelling at her son, and the barking of a dog was also heard far away in the middle of the night.

"I always feel that Mr. Sean Asmond is more...um...suspicious compared to the stone mirror demon who turned into Stone Oxenfurt."

Xia De smiled and joked, and walked along the small road in the village, towards the city with bright lights and towering buildings in the distance. 【Why do you say that? 】

"She" asked softly.

"It's just a joke. After all, Mr. Asmond... No matter what, the devil matter will finally come to an end on Friday."

As he walked, he looked up at the moon in the night sky. The three rounds of the moon tonight are all moon phases of the waning moon. According to the knowledge Xia De obtained from [Witch Reverberation Luvia], such a night is suitable for sleeping, rejuvenating people's physical and mental vitality, reducing nightmares, strengthening Spiritual spells. The "Enchantment Curse" recorded in "The Pink Book", the "Dream of the Moon" that Xia De has not yet learned, and the secret method of maintaining the soul recorded in "The Secret of Immortality" are all suitable for tonight.

"Before I knew it, I understood more and more."

He kicked away the small stone at his feet, and the stone bounced from the gap of the skewed wooden fence into the yard of the roadside house. Immediately there was a sound of dog barking. The chained black hound clawed at the low fence and yelled at Xia De outside the fence. Then, because it smelled the scent of the female dragon, it barked for the last time with its tail between its legs, and then from its throat With a "woo-woo" sound, he shrank his head and returned to his nest.

"The story here is coming to an end."

Shad's eyes moved away from the direction of the timid dog, and looked at the city of Randall Valley in the night, covered by clouds and fog.

(Mia is running...)

After a comfortable sleep at home, Xia De yawned and went downstairs to get the goat milk on Wednesday morning. As soon as he opened the door, he saw the local post office's carriage parked in front of his house. And the freckled red-haired young postman, under the command of the old postman, tried to move a heavy-looking box from the carriage to Shade's door.

"This is......"

wear

Xia De in pajamas and slippers asked hesitantly, while Mia huddled behind Xia De's feet, poking her head curiously, but a little afraid of strangers.

"Mr. Shard Suren Hamilton?"

The elderly postman confirmed with the manifest, and after Xia De nodded, handed him the manifest for his signature and acceptance:

"Miss Mia Sangold, from the town in the east of the kingdom, I sent you a letter and a package. Please check it, and if there is no problem, please sign here."

"Oh, I remembered." Xia De suddenly realized:

"Last month, she said in a letter that ~www.novelbuddy.com~ was tidying up the old house, and wanted to send me some interesting things as souvenirs, to thank me for taking care of Mia, but she really came. Oh, yes Yes, sign here?"

Xia De signed his name with a pen, and saw the young postman struggling to hold the square wooden box and wanted to put it down, so he took the box over. As for the letter, he had already put it in his pocket:

"Thank you both, you worked hard early in the morning, I wish you a happy day."

He politely thanked the postmen before turning back to the house and hooking the door with his foot to close it. "What a polite gentleman."

The old postman sighed outside the door, while the young man looked at the door hesitantly, and then at his hands: "He is so easy to hold that box? It seems that I should really exercise gone."
