Dawn of the Grey Tower

At night, it slowly descended, and the blue sky was pulled up by the navy blue curtain. This is a night without stars. For the prairie people who regard the stars as the eyes of all spirits, this is an unknown night. On such nights, neither prayer nor blessings will be answered, and all vendettas and immorality will be acquiesced. Of course, the pious herdsmen would say that the spirits set aside such nights to test the virtue of the grassland creatures. They did not close their eyes, but observed the earth in an invisible way. All evil thought to be undiscovered Yes, it will invite future judgment. It's just that when the future trial will come and how to define the so-called evil behavior, I'm afraid it will not be so easy to make clear.

But one thing is the consensus on the grassland, that is, in such a dim starry night, no matter how urgent things are, we must stop and wait for the sunrise. Because it is said that those who are scolded by the spirits as evil things will come out of their hidden places on such a night, especially for campers in the wild, strange travelers are very dangerous.

"Can you give me a seat by the fire? The farthest is fine." The middle-aged man who came out of the night asked the silencers. He looked quite vicissitudes, with tanned skin, and his face and arms were covered with gully left by excessive sunlight. His figure is not thin, but it also shows a sickness, plus the thin clothes he wears and the strips of cloth wrapped around his head, this man looks like the most honest and easy to be bullied. Look like a person.

The silencers subconsciously put their hands on the scimitars around their waists, but the man seemed to be too slow to notice at all. It may have been noticed, but for him, his life may not be a valuable thing, and the value may be almost the same as the most remote seat next to the fire. People who have nothing to lose will not be afraid. When life is only suffering for him, then no threat is enough to be a threat, nor is any fear enough to be a fear.

The leader stood up and reached out to the silent person not to show obvious hostility. Their task was very important and must be secret. Before killing this person, he had to figure out who this person was sent to warn them. "Are you in any trouble? Today is not a good day for a walk."

The man raised his head violently, his turbid eyes were full of numbness, like a tangled uncomfortable string, and now, the string slowly wriggled out a little emotion, pain "Ah, I'm so unfortunate! It took me fifteen years to redeem myself, but within two days, my only lamb was taken away by the wild wolf, it's my only property! Those **** things! , The long-haired monster took it away from me, just because I took a nap! I chased, chased, and chased until I could n’t move, and now I ca n’t find my sheep, nor can I find it On the way back, all my efforts, my future, are all gone, gone ... "

People on the campfire showed different expressions on their faces, most of them were disgusted. There were slaves on the grassland. Strictly speaking, the silencer was a slave before becoming the silencer, and they came to this step because they were silent After the loyalty is given to the loyal master, the slave will be released from slavery. In addition to this approach, most slaves can also work to obtain the status of free people. After all, the population is a scarce resource on the grassland, and each one must play its role. It is too wasteful.

However, the most uncomfortable thing for slaves is not their ugly bodies that have been changed due to overwork, but the loss of human intelligence in the mechanically numb life like the man in front of them, and they have become a talking beast . This is unacceptable to the prairie people who believe in the soul after death. Although all beings have spirits, they are still primates, but they are born to live as numb beasts. It is an insult to the spirits and the creator. All human insults.

Having said that, the leader doesn't want to kill him anymore. This man has already rotted away alive, and his world has only his own misery. Nothing else can hold it. Such people kill their dirty hands. "Give him a place to let the poor man who has lost his sheep rest and roast the fire."

When the man walked through the line, the stench on his body made everyone instinctively avoid it. Judging by this smell and his hair and beard, the lamb in his mouth must have been lost for a long time. This is a lunatic because of the paranoid madman who ran out of the clan after losing the sheep. Almost everyone makes this judgment. Such a madman will not care about him, and it will become the food of the jackal soon. And it must be a very hungry jackal, because his meat is no better than mud.

Fire, jumping, the man stared at the fire as if he had seen it for the first time. He even reached out to touch the flame! This move really made everyone think of him as a complete madman, sitting farther away. The leader shrugged his nose and was found by the madman. Their luck was not very good.

The night was deeper, and the place where the fire could illuminate was getting smaller and smaller. The silencers beside the fire also showed fatigue after the day's running. It's time to rest.

"Vigil in groups of two, no stars today, don't let the fire go out." The leader finished his rest. Before he fell asleep, the man was still staring at the fire.

"Fire! The fire is out!" In fact, before being awakened by the sound and shaking, he was first awakened by the pungent smell. The leader who was suddenly awakened from his sleep vigorously opened his eyes, hoping to figure out what was happening, but as the voice in the dark said, the campfire went out. This group of unreliable guys. With a curse in his heart, he patted the hand on his shoulder and knew from the smell that he was the lunatic. It's just that when the shot opened, the hand was faintly moist.

Relying on the memory, the leader took out the flint in his arms, walked to the place where the fire should be in three or two steps, and carefully fired a few sparks. As soon as the spark fell, the whole fire lit up again. "Has it been blown out by the wind? How do those night watchers look at the fire and said that the night without stars cannot be extinguished ..."

His second sentence was swallowed. Because with the firelight, it was not the other sleeping people who appeared in front of his eyes, but a cruel wreck ~ www.readwn.com ~ Those wrecks who were once human were cut open without exception. The inside of was pulled out of the abdominal cavity and gnawed. Rao is already in a hundred battles, but the soldier almost spit it out.

"Damn it, you know how ..." The red, liquid mixed with certain internal organs drips down the grim and dark arms, and the mantle on the man's head disappears somehow. , Exposing the entire top of the head without skin, **** top of the head.

"My only lamb was taken away by the wolf. I chased, chased, and when I chased those **** monsters, my poor sheep had only skin left. I hate it so I put those The wolf's skin was also peeled off and put on the body. The feeling was so good. The warm, moist fit felt more mesmerizing than any woman's skin. So I started peeling non-stop, no Stop peeling, but I just learn not to peel people's skin, just like the top of this man's head, I haven't been able to peel it off properly. But it doesn't matter, I can practice slowly while you are here. "

"Don't come here! You, don't come here! You ..."

… "Do n’t accept any strangers on a night without stars. Why do n’t some people understand?" On the hillside far from the silencer ’s camp, Uville stood there, with no eyeballs in his eyes, instead, he was Two beating flames.
