"The second clue, the demon is related to the stone."
Haihong Oxenfurt nodded, and after the maid left, he said softly:
"The amulet on your waist is beautiful."
"Yeah?"
Xia De took off the unicorn amulet and handed it to the other party. Unexpectedly, Hai La Oxenfurt took it directly without any sign of being hurt.
"It was given to me by a beautiful female fortune-teller during the divination at the Prophet Association a few days ago."
He said the excuse he had thought up long ago:
"I obviously wanted to divination love, but she said that I would have bad luck recently, so she gave me the amulet she carried with her, and asked me to have dinner together tomorrow."
Mrs. Oxenfurt looked at the face of the handsome young man in front of her, nodded and returned the amulet, and then proposed:
"Mr. Watson, my husband will be back in a while, are you interested in going around the back garden with me?"
It was a rather odd proposition, and Shad had never heard of someone's wife wandering in the garden with the guest when visiting someone's home. But this sentence is definitely not the kind of peachy invitation, because Haihong Oxenfurt's tone is still so indifferent.
Xia De guessed that she probably wanted to say something to him, but he didn't immediately agree:
"This seems a little bad."
The veiled woman shook her head slightly, "I'll answer some of your questions."
She stood up directly, so Xia De also put down the undrinked teacup and stood up.
When the door was opened, the maid wearing the old maid skirt was still standing outside, she asked softly:
"Madam, where do you want to go?" "I would like to invite Mr. Watson to be my model and let me draw a portrait."
The lady said, and the maid nodded:
"Then I'll go prepare the painting tools."
As he spoke, he walked to the other direction of the corridor, while Haiji Oxenfurt led Shad to the first floor. She didn't immediately lead Xia De out of the gloomy mansion, but stopped at the entrance hall.
The so-called "foyer" of this kind of manor house is quite large, with chairs and decorative armor for guests to sit on the walls, and antique carpets on the floor.
Haiji Oxenfurt turned to look at the giant portrait oil painting hanging on the wall facing the door:
"Do you know who this is?"
An oil painting of an old man with white hair in an old Confederate Army uniform:
"Ferry Oxenfurt?"
Xia De guessed that the "Carson Rick Third Class Combat Hero Medal" belonged to him. As for whether his blurting out the name would make the lady suspicious, that's what Xia De wanted to do.
The woman said softly:
"It's not the most famous ancestor of the Oxenfurt family, but it's the one my husband admires the most."
"Because he won everything for himself by fighting on the battlefield and killing the enemy!"
Xia De asked, the woman nodded slightly, and brought Xia De to the yard.
Sure enough, it was snowing outside, and the snowflakes were not big, so it didn't affect travel. The old butler also appeared when the two left the mansion, but after learning about the thoughts of the mistress of the manor, he also left.
Along the path on the side of the manor courtyard, Haishu Oxenfurt took Shad to the back of the building. This was the first time Shad came here.
The rear of the manor courtyard was no different from what he had imagined. The somewhat deserted garden showed signs of being tidied up, but the evergreen bushes were well-groomed. The small gazebo was located in the middle of the walkway. The tool room, the stables, and the locked fence gate in the backyard. A fence gate in the backyard leads to a path further into the woods in Randall's Valley Creek.
It was still winter, and although it was late winter, the garden was still covered in snow. There were no flowers to be seen, only evergreen bushes dotted in silver and white. Everything is quiet and solemn, and the woman in a long black dress walks quietly in the snowy environment, which has a kind of beauty of death.
Xia De knew that his thoughts at this time were impolite, but he looked at Haihong Oxenfurt at this time, just like looking at a lady attending her husband's funeral.
Just as he was thinking, the woman walking in front stopped abruptly. There is no unique scenery around, only an empty dog house under the big bare tree, and a shovel planted in the snow not far away, and then there is a gazebo in the middle of the back garden, Xia De saw In the arbor were a few empty small brown flower pots.
The woman turned around, her eyes behind the black veil looked at him, her soft voice with a slight dialect was still so quiet:
"You're a Ring Warlock, right?"
This is actually an affirmative sentence, not an interrogative sentence. Xia De shook his head slightly
"Sorry, what?"
"It is impossible for a normal person to defeat him. Even a ring warlock, only a person with a special destiny can defeat him."
The woman said that she didn't seem to care about Xia De's opinion at all:
Xia De took a small step back, standing in the snow did not make him feel any cold, the **** of winter blessed him:
"Ma'am, I need to remind you that I returned the ring to you. It was you who returned the ring to Mr. Stone Oxenfurt."
There was a smile on his face, but there was no smile in his eyes:
"I actually hate people like Stone Oxenfurt, but he pays enough."
He held out a finger:
"Everyone has desires, but mine is especially big."
"Desire will make people fall into the abyss."
"The world itself is an abyss."
Xia De's eyes were fixed on each other, but he felt like he was staring at a walking corpse:
"I don't know what you and your husband are doing, but I know that your husband paid me enough. If you want to persuade me to give up, you have to give the corresponding reward. By the way, The reward he gave was [Genesis·Earth], I don’t know if you know this, this is the original Rhodes card. No one, yes, no one can refuse this.”
The outsider is not a profit-seeking person, but he needs to establish his own character setting at this time:
"Or, you want to tell me what happened to Oxenfurt."
He never admitted his identity as a ring warlock from beginning to end, and Haili Oxenfurt did not ask.
She stated her request:
"I want to entrust you with beating him, beating my husband, Stone Oxenfurt."
"I've beaten him already, three times."
"It's really defeating him, making his career fail, letting his ambition collapse, and finally stabbing the sword into his chest in this manor. But you can't kill him, he can come back from the dead forever, so you have to Outsmart him at the game he finally came up with."
"It's amazing to come back from the dead."
Xia De curled his lips:
"Why should I promise you?"
"Because you have the most noble soul."
This answer was really unexpected. Xia De looked at the woman inquiringly, but the latter did not explain:
"Please look through the snow."
Xia De lowered his head and glanced, the snow layer around his feet automatically moved aside, revealing the dirt. It's just that after the soil was scraped away by the spell [Moving Object], he saw the broken stones in the soil:
"Anything worth noting?"
"My husband has many enemies. He will turn them into stones, bring them back here, and smash them with his hammer. Those souls are thus permanently imprisoned in this land."
This does sound like Stone Oxenfurt's style:
"Do you think that after hearing this kind of story, I will justly express my desire to eradicate evil?"
The woman wearing a black veil shook her head, Xia De could directly see her indifferent eyes
s eyes:
"If you know him, it means that you are taken by him. If you have already noticed that something is wrong with him, then you should understand that you also need help. The eyes of the evil spirit are also staring at you."
This is indeed true. According to the doctor, when Shad defeated Stone Oxenfurt in the Rhodes card for the first time, the demon behind him had already set his sights on him.
"I won't help you for nothing, what can you give me?"
In fact, Xia De didn't care what the other party gave him, even if the woman just took out a piece of jewelry on her body, he would agree.
But again unexpectedly, Haile Oxenfurt grabbed his right hand and pressed it to her own left chest.
Shocked, the first thing Xia De felt was not touch, but warm heat. "The reward is, my soul." "Sorry, what do I want your soul for?" By entangled in this issue, his goal has been achieved:
"I promise to take your commission ~www.mtlnovel.com~ but not for any soul, I want to make sure that after I complete your husband's commission, I have the ability to get what I want. I need your Help, tell me, what should I do? I have some strength, but I can't deal with an unkillable monster."
The laughter of "her" came from next to her ears. So far, almost all the powerful enemies that Shade has defeated have the label of "unkillable".
"Before I help you, please forgive me, I also want to confirm how much power you have."
The veiled woman said calmly, Xia De tilted his head and looked at her:
"What?"
The snow under the shovel in the distance trembled, and then a rotting human hand emerged from the ground. "Please defeat him, the gardener who served me faithfully. He was killed and buried here because he saw my husband's secret.
She retreated to the doghouse under the tree, and rotting human hands protruding from the snow had grabbed the shovel. Wearing a black hat and rotten blue suspender overalls, with a stooped body and a height of 2.5 meters, the ghoul crawled out of the snow and mud.
