Castle Banquet

:

The mysterious moon sank to the sky, and the stars danced.

The night was silent, except for the rustling of the grass in the breeze.

The two sides had been in a stalemate for more than 20 minutes, and finally the person on the opposite side made a movement; two people walked forward a few steps with their waists bent, and then fell down again.

Their positions are about 80 meters from zero.

Zero put down the hand holding the gun, and moved his arm a few times.The blood on the shoulder has soaked the underwear.

Two minutes later, in a different position from before, two more people appeared.

This time, Zero didn't hesitate, aiming at the target—shooting; one shot at the calf, one shot at the shoulder armor.

Sadly, neither of these men was armed, and Zero's location has been revealed.

Zero quickly moved the gun off the ridge, and almost at the same time as he moved, a bullet embedded in the wet soil.

The opponent's sniper is at a position about 90 meters away from zero.

Holding the gun, Zero moved two meters to the left, set up the gun again, and waited motionlessly for the opponent's reaction.

One minute later, the two team members who had moved initially crawled towards the two wounded and bandaged their wounds.

Three minutes later, the four began to retreat to the rear.

This time they were too careless. They didn’t expect that a kid who came out of nowhere and was sent to be a scapegoat without knowing it was not only single-handed, but also so accurate with marksmanship; Useless.

They had to evacuate temporarily.

In fact, as long as they persisted for a while, the fugitives would go into shock due to excessive blood loss.

However, facing the three injured companions, they flinched.

Zero didn't fill the gun, he didn't want to kill each other with them who are also human beings.

Quietly watching a group of five people carefully withdraw from the field of vision, Ling got up from the ground and continued to walk forward.

After walking for about an hour, Zero reached the edge of the field, and he finally completely lost control of his consciousness.

When I woke up again, I saw a snow-white ceiling.

It took Zero a minute to retrieve the memory before losing consciousness, and then quickly sat up from the bed.

He moved his arms slightly, touched his forehead again, and confirmed that the wounds had disappeared, as if they had never existed.

It seems that all the fighting in memory is just a dream.

He looked down at the clothes on his body, and it wasn't the blood-stained one in his memory, but clean and tidy white pajamas.

Zero suddenly remembered something, and hastily reached into his bosom to feel around.

No, the pocket watch is gone!

I don't know whether to breathe a sigh of relief or feel sorry.

At this time, the door of the room was opened from the outside.

Walking in was the person Zero wanted to see most and least at the moment—no, he was not a human, but a vampire.

Zero fixedly watched the man slowly approaching him, his face was pale and tired, as if he hadn't rested for a long time.

"Finally woke up. I thought the transformation failed this time."

Zero looked at each other in shock, what did he say?conversion?

"what did you do to me?"

Jiu Lanshu didn't answer him right away, walked leisurely to the side of the bed, put a white porcelain cup on the low cabinet by the bed, the cup was full of bright red liquid.

Zero smelled a sweet breath.

Without the other party answering, Zero should also understand what happened during the time he was unconscious.

The vampire actually fed him his own blood when he was unconscious.

Ling stared at the bright red in the white porcelain cup, the contrast of red and white was extremely dazzling.

Throwing the cup full of blood violently, the fragile white porcelain hit the ground and shattered into pieces; the bright red liquid spread on the floor, like a broken rose, the blood of the heart.

"What a waste, Cone Sheng Zero."

The person who brought the blood raised his left hand, looked at the vertical and horizontal scars on his palm, and felt a little sorry.

Zero didn't respond to Jiu Lanshu's words, or rather, he couldn't spare the energy to respond now.

There are too many questions in his mind, and he doesn't know what to say at this moment.

He should have questioned him, asked him why he turned himself into a vampire?Just because of his passing interest?

He wanted to ask the other party, did he really regret it, and wanted to arrest him and return him to the castle for imprisonment?

He also wanted to ask, did they ever hurt You Ji?

And he was doubting, doubting whether it makes sense to ask these questions?Do vampires really consider human opinions?

Vampires don't care about these useless reasons. They force humans and hurt humans, it's just out of the instinct of beasts.

Has he now turned into a monster like them?

Does he still have the right to worry about Yuuki?

But, just now, the moment I saw this person, what I felt was joy.

happy?

He must be crazy.

That's right, when he woke up again, he was already crazy.

You see, the fatal wound has disappeared. Facing the blood handed over by the beast, he actually finds it sweet and almost can't help but want to drink it.

This is a nightmare, he can't stay here anymore, he must leave quickly, stay away from that person.

Ling got up and got out of bed, regardless of being in pajamas, he wanted to go out of the room.

Jiu Lanshu didn't stop him, just looked at Ling's back, and said lightly, "Want to see your family?"

Retracting the hand reaching for the doorknob, Zero turned to face Jiu Lanshu.

"Are you kidding me?"

His family members had died a year and a half ago, and he had witnessed them being torn apart and devoured by the minions of wild beasts.

But this person in front of him, this vampire is now asking, do you want to see them?Is he finally planning to tear himself apart?

All the wavering and hesitation of the young man were reflected in Jiu Lanshu's eyes.

Regarding this question, Jiu Lanshu didn't want to ask himself, what he expected was for the other party to ask.However, at this moment, he didn't think about it that much, he just wanted to find a reason to stop the child from insisting on leaving.

This child has just successfully transformed, just like a newborn baby, he still needs time to adapt to the changes in his body.And for this process, he needs his own blood, just like a baby needs his mother's milk.

What's more, four days ago, when he found the boy, he had two gunshot wounds and his body was covered in blood.This means that in this city, someone wants his life.

He didn't want the person he had just rescued to die in a place he couldn't see in an instant.

In fact, Jiu Lanshu could have sent Ling to the hospital, but he didn't, and he also had his own selfish motives.

Half a year ago, he acquiesced in a decision, allowing the boy to leave with the girl, and he chose to forget about this unexpected pet; but, half a year later, he, who has always been forgetful, was still thinking about it, and he was not tired of it, he still wanted to The boy stays with him.

It was an accident to meet a seriously injured boy here, but since we met again, let's stay.

Jiu Lanshu approached the young man, and with a serious expression, told: "Go and see your parents' graveyard, change your clothes, and follow me."

The clothes that Jiu Lanshu mentioned meant Jiu Lanshu's own clothes that were placed in the suitcase in the middle of the room.

In fact, Zero was wearing Shuki's pajamas at the moment.

It was no accident that Jiulan appeared in this city. He came to negotiate with the local human government, so he lived here temporarily.

Because he is dealing with human beings, all the details of his life are no different from ordinary people.Take the train with your suitcase, take a taxi, and stay in a hotel.

Following the other party's line of sight, Zero quickly saw the black suitcase.

Although he didn't know what the other party was up to, it was not a pleasant thing to go out in pajamas, so Zero obediently changed his clothes.

The clothes in the suitcase were packed in sets, and Zero randomly picked up a transparent bag, which contained a dark purple shirt, a white V-neck sweater, a black windbreaker, black slacks decorated with rivets, and matching white sneakers .

Zero subconsciously glanced at the suit the other party was wearing - white shirt, navy blue sweater, linen coat, black slacks, and black leather shoes.

Really, not a good match.

Jiu Lanshu stood in front of the door and waited. After seeing Ling change, he opened the door and walked out.

Zero followed behind him, step by step.

He didn't know what the vampire in front of him wanted to do with him, but he didn't plan to run away either, his self-esteem wouldn't allow it.

In addition, Zero is also really curious about whether the family's grave really exists and where it is.

Parents and Yihui died so abruptly and silently that the people around them didn't even know what happened that night; and the only one who survived at that time was immediately taken to the deep mountain castle by the vampire's subordinates.How could they have a cemetery?Who built a cemetery for them?

Zero suddenly stopped in his tracks—it was the man in front of him who handled the murder scene, cleaning up all the traces, including burying all the corpses.

Zero quickly caught up with Jiu Lanshu and stood in front of him.

"Why? Is this your atonement? Do you think this will make it up?"

Jiu Lanshu turned sideways, walked around Zero and continued forward.

"This is just a small gift from me. Regarding the death of your family, the murderer is neither my child, nor I have never known the murderer. If I have any responsibility, I am very sorry, because the city It was too far from the castle, and I didn't make it in time. So—"

Jiu Lanshu paused for a while before continuing, "I'm about to take over this place."

As for how to take over and from whom, Jiu Lanshu didn't say any more.

They had already arrived outside the hotel, Jiu Lanshu reached out to stop a taxi, and beckoned for Zhui Shengling to sit in.

Jiu Lanshu reported the address of the public cemetery to the driver, speaking in a gentle and smiling tone.

If this is their first meeting, Zero will definitely think that the other party is just an ordinary office worker.

All his actions are no different from ordinary citizens.

However, "if" does not exist after all. Zero has seen the other party kill two vampires silently, and has also witnessed a vampire as powerful as Yi Yi longing for him as a god.

Zero turned his head to look at the person sitting beside him, he stared straight ahead, his eyes were empty, and his dark pupils were like an endless abyss.
