Chapter 997 The Decline of the Vampire Tribe 32
Suddenly, what are you doing?
"It's so scary!" Xining patted his chest: "Can you stop doing this? It will scare people to death."
The guy smiled and grinned, as if he was afraid that others wouldn't see his special fangs: "Little girl, if you knew you were scared, you wouldn't come out in the middle of the night. Does having a man around you make you bolder?"
Then he said to Dracula: "Give her to me." It seemed that he recognized that Dracula was the same kind.
Dracula said only one word: "No!"
"Do you know who I am? The elder in this area is my father." This guy threatened: "What will happen if you let him know that you refuse to transfer the food to him?"
Dracula asked: "What will happen?"
This guy was depressed. He looked at Dracula carefully: "How many years have you lived to dare to say such a thing?"
Xining whispered softly: "Hey, he can't see your age?"
Dracula turned his head, lowered his head slightly and whispered to her: "Of course, when you get old, you don't want others to know your age."
This joke was interesting, and Xining laughed out loud. It seems that Dracula is hiding his aura and other things, making the other party think that he is a new vampire.
Still laughing, did you take him seriously? The guy couldn't help but get annoyed: "Will you give it or not?"
"Of course not!" Xining answered on his behalf: "I am his descendant. Otherwise, I would still be a human being if I were by his side every day. Just give up!"
Dracula glanced at her from the corner of his eyes. He changed from his great-great-great... uncle to his descendant. He was really good at talking. But that's okay. Knowing that he is his descendant, you have to think about what kind of trouble there will be before you speak.
A wolf stared at a sheep, but there was a male lion staring at it. Even if the wolf was about to starve to death, it would not pounce in front of the lion.
"That's it~" The guy thought for a while, took off his hat, and gave a simple salute politely: "Welcome here, I sincerely invite you two to the dance, and introduce you to the elders."
"Is the elder Viscount Tripoli?" Dracula asked.
"Yes!" I was a little surprised, why did I say the name right away: "Do you know each other?"
"So be it!" Dracula said with the common humor of a noble: "He is still alive, but he is still young. Thank you for your guidance, but no need, I know the way, let's go first."
After saying that, this guy stood stunned on the empty street... Where are the people and the ghosts? Where did the two of them go just now? ! Damn it.
Xining only felt a blur in front of his eyes, and he was already standing in front of a house.
This speed is too fast, and unlike during the day, when Dracula dodges, the wind will rise. There was no wind at all, and it was silent. In the blink of an eye, we were at least one street away.
The house was brightly lit and music was playing inside. From the window, you can still see people dancing and talking face to face.
Dracula bent his arms: "Never leave me."
Xining put his hand behind his arm, and added another hand, circled it like this, and raised his eyebrows: "Definitely not." He wouldn't even kill him. The "people" inside didn't even have to think about it. It's a vampire.
Dracula's lips curled up and he led her inside. This house is the largest one in this community, and there are many candles lit around it, making the living room even brighter than during the day.
There were many people inside, at least forty or fifty, making the large living room very lively. There were more than a dozen people dancing on the dance floor in the center of the living room, and there were people playing musical instruments playing music.
At this time, the dance is basically still court dance, which involves simply holding hands, squatting down to salute, and walking around. Most of the women's clothes have caught up with the trend in the palace, and some have already put on the prototype of tights, making their waists look thin.
The men wore clothes that Xining thought were a bit funny, including wide-brimmed hats with feathers, bloomers, fat tops, and exaggeratedly huge jewelry.
Still as good-looking as Dracula, the simple black dress makes his figure tall and straight.
After walking in, Xining looked at the entire wall of mirrors in front of him and was stunned.
In order to show that he is rich, the owner here installed a whole wall with mirrors, which is a bit like the mirror gallery in the future palace. In this era, there is a tax on installing a complete mirror, so mirrors for clothing are usually made of two, or even three or four pieces.
And here, the pieces are all long mirrors. How much tax will this cost? No wonder the church here tolerates this community.
What stunned Xining was not the mirror itself, but what was reflected in the mirror.
There was no one in the entire mirror except for the furnishings of the room and her...
In the mirror, her hands seemed to be hanging in the air, revealing an extremely weird look.
There was no one, not the musicians, the dancers, the waiters carrying red wine, and Dracula beside him. None of them had a shadow!
This is unscientific. Even if there is no shadow of the person, the clothes can still be seen, as well as those big gold chains that weigh several kilograms and are inlaid with various gemstones. It’s not like the clothes and jewelry worn by vampires can be automatically blocked at the same time, right?
But unscientific things often happen. I don’t know how these worlds are set up. There are often unnatural things that cannot be understood and cannot withstand scrutiny.
Well, the end of science is theology, explain it with mythology, everything is possible.
The music stopped immediately. Xining looked around. The vampires stopped dancing and talking, and all of them looked at her. The faces were as white as paper, without any expression, which made them look a bit penetrating.
Dracula asked: "Want to dance?"
Xi Ning smiled: "Why not?" Once you come, you will be at ease. It is quite exciting to be able to dance in front of a pack of wolves. With Dracula as a big tree covering us, there is nothing to be afraid of.
Dracula was a little surprised by this, but it was also expected. After all, she was not a little brave.
So he led her down the dance floor and stood unceremoniously at the top of the list.
The music started again. It was so unexpected just now, the dance must go on.
Nobles will receive basic social learning from an early age, and dancing is a compulsory course. Xining followed the memory of the body owner, holding the skirt with both hands, squatting down slightly and bowing. Dracula, who was standing opposite, also put his hand on his chest and bowed. Then follow the beat of the music and start walking step by step.
This kind of dance has no technical content at all. It is just for getting to know each other and seeing what the other person looks like. You can also talk while dancing.
The vampires who had stopped dancing saw them dancing and started dancing too. But from time to time they looked at them with curious eyes, and the people who were discussing quietly asked each other who these two people were.
