The Whispering Verses Chapter 1454: Wedding night
Chapter 1454 Wedding Night
For a moment, Shade thought Oxenfurt was going to pick up something and hit Mr. Watson from behind. Judging from the expression, Hai? in the illusion felt the same way, but Stone Oxenfurt held back again.
He clenched his fist and the forced smile appeared on his face again:
"How about we sign here? I asked the servants to bring chairs and tables, and prepare pens and ink."
The illusion continued, and the old housekeeper of the manor, whom Shade was familiar with, and the maid in an old-time maid dress appeared with tables and chairs.
The group of people just sat down at the door in the snow - of course, judging from their attire, they were still in summer.
Old Mr. Watson took out the parchment contract. Stone Oxenfurt took a look at it, and then finally slapped the table angrily and stood up:
"What does this mean? Why is it different from last time - if the two divorce, all the family property will belong to Hay Watson. If Hay Watson dies during the marriage, he must be buried Watson Family Cemetery ”
"Father."
Mrs. Hai? also held her handkerchief and looked at her father angrily, while old Watson calmly explained to his future son-in-law:
"I can't trust you, so I'm going to increase your losses when you get divorced. The Oxenfurt family cemetery is too shabby, even worse than this house, and it's full of rude people. For me My daughter’s death will be peaceful. She will return to our family cemetery. Of course, if you want, you can also be buried in the Watson family cemetery.”
"you"
The illusion of Oxenfurt raised his hand as he spoke. Although he stopped his movements, his eyes were really murderous. This is no joke, he is definitely thinking about killing people at this time.
Shad suspected that this incident was the trigger for the subsequent massacre of Watson Manor.
But what happened next proved that his guess was wrong.
"After signing, I agree to your marriage."
Old Watson said, then reached outside the illusion screen and took out a wine bottle:
"Although my wife didn't come due to illness, she asked me to bring a bottle of wine to celebrate your engagement. I don't like you, but for the sake of the sea, I will still bless you."
He seemed to be sure that Stone Oxenfurt would definitely sign, so he handed the bottle to the old butler beside him, who opened the bottle and poured a glass of wine for each of the three people at the table.
Oxenfurt sat there with his mouth twitching, looking at the parchment and wine glass in front of him. To be honest, Xia De admired his self-restraint at this time.
In the end, he picked up the pen and signed his name. The width of his signature was as if he wanted to kill someone with a pen.
While Old Watson smiled, Stone Oxenfurt dropped the pen, didn't toast to anyone, directly picked up the cup and drank it, and then started coughing uncontrollably:
"Oh, Stone."
Hai? Patted him on the back, but Oxenfurt bent over and coughed twice, then spit out a mouthful of blood on the table.
Everyone, including Shade, was shocked.
Stone Oxenfurt stood up and looked at Old Watson:
"Poison? Can't you help it now? Do you want to kill me and get all the property?"
"What, me."
Old Watson looked equally surprised, but he had no chance to explain, and the wine glass was thrown over by Oxenfurt. Because he was too angry, the blow was not accurate enough, and the wine glass flew past Mr. Watson's ear. So the old man stood up and ran out of the illusion range that Shade could see.
"Stone!"
Hea Watson, who still existed in the illusion scene, wanted to explain, but Stone Oxenfurt pushed her away and left the scene.
The man with a fierce face, whose facial features seemed to be twitching, stood on the steps in front of the mansion, looking at the direction in which Old Watson left. He bent down and pulled out the dagger from his boot, and stabbed it **** the parchment contract on the table behind him:
"Do you really think I am a good person?"
The illusion ended, leaving only Shade at the door of the mansion, holding a candlestick and looking at the empty snow:
"Haha~"
He laughed dryly, not knowing what kind of opinion he wanted to express. He knew what happened next. As a result, the Watson family was destroyed and turned into a haunted house. The members of the family, the unlucky lodgers and all the servants turned into half-demon and wandering ghosts. It was not until summer that they were killed recently. Moral liberation.
Of course, Shade believed that the "poisonous wine" was most likely not brought by Old Watson. As a bystander, he saw the scene just now most clearly. Moreover, according to his various inquiries into the Watson family, the Watson family has a very good reputation in the local area and will never use this method to seek the property of their future son-in-law.
Although the tracking of blood dripping from the eyes in "Echo of Blood" only lasts for an hour, this thaumaturgy is essentially related to time, so although a lot of time is wasted watching the illusion, the duration of the thaumaturgy is almost It took an hour to arrive, but the increase in time power also affected the continuation of the blood echo, so Shade could continue to follow the footprints and the **** figure into the mansion.
The area where the footprints wandered this time was between the two staircases on the left and right, and next to the long dining table under the patio of the house. This can also be used as the banquet hall of the mansion. The long dining table faces the fireplace covered with spider webs, and is flanked by corridors and doors on both sides. When Shade came for the third time, it was here that he talked to Hai Oxenfurt.
This time the stone pieces were hidden in the fireplace, and when Shade was about to activate the illusion, the ground shook slightly, causing the magnificent chandelier above his head to make a very scary "squeak" sound.
There was another earthquake nearby.
The demonic runes on the stone fragments were activated, and the fourth illusion appeared. In the picture were the Oxenfurts and their two demonic servants.
The unveiled Hai Watson sat at the table, in front of a table full of delicacies and gold and silver utensils, while Oxenfurt stood aside. Judging from the light and shadow displayed by the illusion, it should be night at this time. The fireplace is lit with flames and the table is lit with candles, but no other lamps on the indoor walls are turned on:
"We are getting married next week. I received a letter from your father. None of their family will come. He is probably afraid of me."
"Stone, what did you do to your father? I have never seen him since."
The woman with her head lowered asked questions to her soon-to-be-married husband, with an almost pleading look in her eyes.
"Nothing done."
Oxenfurt said with his hands on his chest. The sitting woman continued to look up at him, while the two servants stood aside like sculptures. This illusion continued for five minutes, and no one moved, which made Shade quite disappointed:
"On the eve of the wedding, she realized that her family had been destroyed."
Xia De whispered softly, tracing the footprints and the **** figure as he continued up the stairs. This time, he returned to the bedroom on the third floor again. The last piece of stone was hidden under the pillow next to the body on the bed.
Just before picking up the stone piece, Shade suddenly turned his head and looked out the window with squinted eyes. There seemed to be something big flying in the night sky in the direction of the mountains, and a light spot was chasing behind him.
Shad activated the fifth stone fragment.
The illusion of this piece of stone enveloped the entire room, and the dilapidated room instantly turned into a carefully organized and cleaned bedroom. Hayashi Oxenfurt, who was wearing a white wedding dress, was lying on the bed, which coincided with the position of the corpse holding a rose in reality. His eyes were looking at the roof with tears in his eyes; Stone Oxenfurt, who was wearing a gorgeous dress and robe. Te stood by the window with a wine glass on the windowsill. He turned his back to his wife, holding the window frame with both hands and looking at the night.
Shad placed the candlestick back on the desk, and then saw a new envelope appearing on the phantom table.
The letter looked like it had just been opened. There was no letter paper inside, but a palm-sized cut newspaper section. That was the top page, so Shade could see the name of the "Randall Valley Evening News" and even the headline of this page of news——
"The Watson Manor Massacre!" 》
As for the content of the news, it is generally that Watson Manor was brutally massacred without any survivors. The police are actively investigating this and collecting clues from all citizens.
Shad sighed again, and at the same time heard footsteps coming from the corridor.
The door was pushed open, and the real Stone Oxenfurt appeared outside, followed by the old housekeeper and the maid. Because the illusion continued, after Oxenfurt opened the door, he could see the bedroom where he was newly married, the illusion and the corpse on the bed, and the back of "himself" in front of the window.
He showed a slightly sad look, was silent for a moment, and then said to Sha De:
"Why do you have to satisfy your morbid curiosity? Wouldn't it be better to just take the cards and leave?"
Xia De put down the newspaper in his hand:
"That's not possible. The devil promised to give me more things and let me teach you a lesson. Neither I nor it will be satisfied if you leave like this."
He raised his sword:
"It's very interesting. You went in such a big circle to let me see your marriage story. You don't want me to sympathize with your experience, resonate with you, and then let you go because of it, right?"
"I know people like you very well, and I also understand that you probably won't sympathize with people like me."
Osenfurt is still standing outside the door:
"I just hope you can understand these stories. After all, you have been too deep into my life, and you have decided to end it all as a 'messenger of justice.'"
Xia De shook his head:
"If there is nothing else, can we start playing? I have other things to do tonight and I don't have time to spend time with you here. As you can see, there is a lively fight outside, and I want to join in the fun."
Stone Oxenfurt blinked and took a step forward to truly walk into the room, while the maid and butler behind him also followed him.
[He has become a ring warlock, now a ring. 】
"She" reminded softly.
Shad will not let down his guard just because he only has one link. After all, when he met Joey Barton last year, he also had one link.
