Chapter 43 Princess Castle Rules Strange Stories (23) Fuling’s Crimes…
Bai Jie stuttered and repeated: "About the revelers?"
"Yeah." Gao Mengtang nodded, her long hair rubbing against the pillow, making a rustling sound. "The history, characteristics, and everything of the revelers are all good."
The moonlight that filtered through the gaps in the curtains dazzled his eyes. Bai Jie was flustered, reciting like a primary school student: "The Revelers are in human form, beautiful, and skilled in mind control. Rumor has it that the Revelers have been stranded in the surface world for many years. The Black Tower's Secret History states that the Revelers are the dirtiest mistake Fuling has ever made, and the dirt that cannot be washed away in the inner world."
Gao Mengtang: "Fuling?"
He Lun's snoring shook the roof tiles and the walls trembled. The whispered conversation between the two was completely covered up.
Bai Jie: "Fu Ling... Fu Ling is often mentioned in the Secret History, but we don't know what Fu Ling is specifically. We only know that they live in the inner world, and can only be summoned to the outer world through complex rituals and extremely mysterious magic."
"Is Fuling related to the moon?" Gao Mengtang asked.
"How do you know?" Bai Jie was surprised, and continued, "The compiler of the Black Tower's Secret History is a human. The time when the book was written is unknown, and the compiler's identity is unknown."
"The name 'Fu Ling' was given to them by humans. It is said that someone has seen Fu Ling. He said that Fu Ling is goodness and beauty, and is a pure radiance. People who are lucky enough to see Fu Ling feel dizzy and ecstatic as if they were taking drugs, immersed in the ultimate beauty. That's why they are called Fu Ling."
The descriptions of the wizards cannot be trusted. They are a group of weirdos who regard mental pollution as sweet tempering.
Therefore, Gao Mengtang speculated that the so-called "dizziness and euphoria like taking drugs" was a serious mental pollution.
Fuling is essentially a mysterious creature from the other world.
However, they are different from the "ancient gods" mentioned by players. Fuling looks like humans and is more beautiful.
"...Before the name Fuling was proposed, people called them [Moon Creatures]." Bai Jie frowned, hesitated, and was too embarrassed to speak. "The Revelers are related to Fuling, that is, to the Moon Creatures. There is a saying, uh, how should I put it..."
After struggling for a while, Bai Jie made up his mind: "There is a saying that a certain creature on the moon was raped by a dirty creature and gave birth to a child. This child is the Reveler. The raped Fu Ling was punished, and the Reveler was exiled to Earth."
The followers of the revelers said that the gods they believed in were born out of wedlock and were despised by the other world, which was really disrespectful. Bai Jie quickly put his hands together and prayed in a low voice.
"Don't doubt my piety. I am the most loyal believer under the throne of God." Bai Jie was very flustered, "But that's what the book says."
Gao Mengtang was curious: "Which book?"
"'The Cult of Shadows'. When I was abused by my family, I had some rebellious thoughts. I found this banned book and flipped through it." Bai Jie grabbed his red hair in distress. "Actually, I think... what 'The Cult of Shadows' says makes a lot of sense."
The Secret History states that the reveler Fuling committed the foulest of sins.
The Shadow Codex states that the Revelers are the offspring of blessed spirits who were raped by foul creatures.
The two books corroborate each other, and it is basically certain that the reveler is an illegitimate child, with half of Fu Ling's blood.
The characteristics of the revelers, “beautiful appearance” and “human form”, are also similar to those of the blessed spirit.
Gao Mengtang nodded: "The records in the Shadow Cult are more reliable."
"You can't say that!" Bai Jie was at a loss, worried that a bolt of punishment would fall from the sky and strike him on the head.
But Gao Mengtang was right. The records in "Shadow Cult" seemed to be closer to the truth.
After thinking for a moment, Gao Mengtang continued to ask: "Will creatures from the moon be resurrected after death? Just like the waxing and waning of the moon."
"I don't know about that. The Fulings are very mysterious, and there are very few records about them."
Both the ancient gods and the blessed spirits came from the inner world. The creatures in the inner world were unwilling to stay in the outer world. To them, the earth was nothing more than a desolate, barren, narrow basement with many noisy little ants crawling around.
The Reveler's long stay on Earth must have been forced - He was exiled.
According to the records of the Shadow Codex, the blessed spirit that gave birth to the revelers was punished. Where is He?
Gao Mengtang opened the system panel.
After Xiao Mengtang died, he turned into a mineral sculpture, and a line of notes suddenly appeared on his personal information page.
【Identity Number】000 Blind
[Note] A true moon creature. What virtue does Night Light have? It dies and then reproduces.
Is the moon creature the blessed spirit? Moon creatures will be resurrected after death, so the mysterious person who gave birth to the revelers should still be alive. Where is he?
Gao Mengtang subconsciously hugged the enemy rabbit in his arms.
"Meng Meng?"
The enemy rabbit twisted his body, changed his position and continued sleeping.
Gao Mengtang rubbed the rabbit's fur: "Thank you for chatting with me. Go to bed early. Good night."
After saying that, he covered himself with the quilt and closed his eyes.
Bai Jie couldn't say goodnight. He grunted for a long time and said, "Boss, why don't you go back to bed?"
"I'll sleep on the floor tonight," Gao Mengtang said softly, mumbling like a dream, "Do you want to sleep on the bed? Don't go, just stay with me."
"No, that's not appropriate, is it?"
"Why?" He sounded a little aggrieved.
Bai Jie became even more panicked. In the darkness, he stared at the ceiling for a long while. After a few minutes, he finally found his voice and asked, "Will your brother agree?"
When I turned my head, I found that Gao Mengtang had fallen asleep.
Bai Jie was so scared that he quickly turned his head away and lay straight with his whole body tense.
*
The next morning, he woke up with dark circles under his eyes.
"What's the matter? You lost to Gao Geng in chess and you were so angry that you couldn't sleep all night?" He Lun saw his face and laughed, "You have dark circles under your eyes... Brother!"
Seeing Gao Mengtang lying on the floor, He Lun almost jumped up.
His shout woke up Wei Wei first. He glanced at Gao Mengtang on the ground and said nothing. He took a puff from his pipe and said, "At the last moment, everyone, be careful. Don't let the Butterfly Fairy fool you."
After saying that, Wei Wei left the bedroom.
"The body cleaning master is too cautious. The charm master is not that scary," Bai Jie rubbed his eyes and took Gao Mengtang's dress. "The control effect of the charm is very unstable. If the person being charmed has too much emotional fluctuations or too low spirits, they may be out of the control of the charm."
Bai Jie: "To put it another way, the person being charmed may lose his head at some point."
Because he couldn't see clearly, Gao Mengtang asked someone to help him change his clothes.
While helping him tie his shoelaces, Bai Jie said to himself, "The ball is tonight, and there's nothing to do in the castle. I'm going to go see the princess first, and then I'll go take a nap when I come back."
After the two of them left, Gao Mengtang played with the little rabbit in the bedroom and lingered for a while before going out.
Yu Le came down the stairs and saw Gao Mengtang push open the door. He was wearing a white suit, a blue tie embroidered with gold patterns, and a one-shoulder cape dragging on the carpet.
Somehow, Yu Le thought of the sacrificial ceremony of the revelers and the scarlet eyes chasing after him. He was startled and tripped over his right foot, rolling down the stairs and falling into the mud.
As soon as he opened the door, he heard someone fall to the ground with a thud.
Gao Mengtang couldn't see the person's face clearly, and thought it was Bai Jie who came back to take a nap, so he said softly, "Be careful."
Be careful. Yule was sweating profusely.
Is this a warning or a threat?
The blind man told him to be careful, is he coming to take his life?
Gao Mengtang's voice was as clear as a spring, chilling to the bone. He stood tall like a bamboo pole and said, "The athletes and the idiots have been eliminated. There are still six players left. Don't sleep too long."
Princess Bai Jie slept for too long and was seduced by another player, which was not a good thing.
When he heard this, it took on another meaning: If you sleep with one eye open, I will come to deal with you at any time.
Yu Le's eyes widened in panic. Last night, he went to the basement and saw the bodies of the athlete and the gangster, their stomachs ripped open and their wrists nailed shut.
At the murder scene, he found a long black hair stained with blood.
Among the players, only Gao Mengtang has long black hair. All NPCs in the castle have blond or brown hair.
Yu Le picked up the hair, and something terrifying happened. The black hair turned into a wisp of dark green smoke and disappeared!
Thinking of last night's experience, Yu Le gritted his teeth in fear. How could human hair turn into mist?
Blind people are not human.
At that time, he thought of the speculation about the "ancient gods" in the forum, and was so scared that he fled from the basement.
Now, hearing the blind man mention the athlete and the scoundrel, Yu Le was even more terrified: Was the blind man going to use the same bloody and cruel methods to deal with him? !
Gao Mengtang was a little surprised that he didn't get a reply from "Bai Jie". In the past, whenever he coughed, the red-haired kid would come over and ask questions, showing great concern.
Bai Jie must have felt a little guilty about the disgraceful background of the revelers he talked about last night! Believers should believe that the gods are spotless.
Gao Mengtang smiled and said, "Did you panic because I offended the feasters?"
No, no! Yu Le wanted to scream, but the sound was stuck in his throat; he wanted to get up from the carpet, but his arms were too weak to move.
That night, the sacrificial ceremony of the revelers, the scarlet eyes that hunted him, the massacre of his family 15 years ago, the brains of those who died tragically were dug out...
Yu Le once said that he wanted to take the blind man's life.
All the information connected together, like a heavy hammer hitting Yu Le's brain.
Gao Mengtang is a reveler!
The survival instinct awakened Yu Le's potential, and he jumped up from the ground and tried to escape.
What's going on? Why didn't Bai Jie reply to him? Gao Mengtang frowned in distress. It was probably because he didn't sleep well last night. He sighed, "It seems that you really need to have a good rest."
The sound was not loud, but it was like a sharp blade piercing his spine. Yu Le staggered again and his knee hit the step hard. He turned around and saw the blind man at the bottom of the stairs.
Misty eyes looked in another direction, frowning.
Have a good rest or sleep forever?
The invisible but omnipresent panic made Yu Le's hair stand on end. His spirit value dropped from 120 to 95.
The sweet floral scent that had been lingering in his nostrils these days seemed to have faded a little.
Yu Le ran up the stairs as if he was running for his life.
Weird. Gao Mengtang rubbed his brows, held onto the wall, took two slow steps, and heard Bai Jie's voice.
"Boss, where are you going? Be careful, I'll support you."
Eh? Gao Mengtang raised his eyebrows. Why is there another Bai Jie?
*
Yu Le escaped upstairs and wandered anxiously in the corridor.
These days, whenever he had time, he would stay on the third floor, because Qin Xishuang's bedroom was on this floor, and there was hope that he would "accidentally meet" his dream lover.
With a creak, the door opened.
Yu Le smelled the fragrance of flowers, looked up, and saw the face he had been thinking about day and night appear from behind the door.
Qin Xishuang looked bright and sleek, but in reality he was slovenly. Through the crack in the door, one could see his messy bedroom. The curtains were tightly drawn, and the light was dim. The windows had been closed for a long time without ventilation, and the air was turbid.
After a few brief seconds, Yu Le suddenly came to his senses, as if awakened from a sweet dream. He couldn't help but think: When did I start to fall in love with Qin Xishuang, and why do I like him?
"What are you doing here? Get out." Qin Xishuang's beautiful face was as cold as ice.
Yu Le quickly looked away. He actually felt that although Qin Xishuang was beautiful, she was far inferior to the blind man.
If only the blind weren't so scary.
Qin Xishuang's disgust was clearly written on her face: "Are you deaf? I told you to get out."
The fragrance of the flowers became stronger, and Yu Le seemed to be immersed in a beautiful dream again. His love revived, but not as strong as usual. He said timidly: "I just want to see you. If you hate me, I will leave immediately."
"Get out of here quickly," Qin Xishuang urged, "Keep an eye on the blind man. Cooperate well."
"Yes, yes."
The sun rises in the east and sets in the west, the day passes quietly, and in the evening, the dance begins.
