Chapter 1020 The Decline of the Vampire Clan 55
She can't let down her guard. Experience tells her that if the other party doesn't believe it or wants to try it, she will be the unlucky one.
Xining thought for a while and said: "It's another person, completing another mission. The possibility of meeting him again is almost impossible, at least never before."
Dracula took a long time before slowly spitting out: "Really?"
Xining stretched out his hand and pulled Dracula's sleeve: "You and I are not of the same race. Don't touch unfamiliar things easily unless you have to. You may put yourself in catastrophe. You should have experienced this. .”
Because he was betrayed, because he was besieged, because his life was about to disappear, he had to sell his soul.
If you die at that time, all pain will stop suddenly, your soul and body will return to dust, dust will return to dust, and everything will disappear. But he was unwilling and filled with resentment, and finally signed a contract with the devil, gaining eternal life and endless pain.
The passage of time may have reduced his grief for his deceased wife, but it has not diminished his longing for him at all, leaving him alone, living alone in this world. No matter how many brides you have, it can't diminish that shortcoming at all.
In Dracula's silence, silence is acquiescence.
The night breeze blows in, making it cool and pleasant. The moonlight is like water, bright and holy.
Dracula asked softly: "How long have you lived?"
It is difficult to calculate the age of vampires because they sometimes hibernate, so it is more accurate to use how long they have lived. It's clear that Dracula has become convinced of her specialness.
"I don't know." Xining slowly let go of the hand holding Dracula's sleeve, but still sat on the bed: "Our concepts of time and space are not familiar to you. If you can live long enough, live another Five or six hundred years later, you will understand.”
If there was a Copernicus in this plane, he would have just been born, or perhaps not yet born. It will take some time until he is burned to death for speaking about geocentric theory.
After Copernicus is burned to death, five or six hundred years will pass, and what she said today, not to mention Dracula, will be understood and understood by many ordinary people.
Dracula seemed to curl up his lips: "It seems that you not only helped me, but also gave me goals and expectations for the future."
Xining nodded: "Yes, as long as you can live, everything can get better. If you die, there will be nothing. You should have thought so four hundred years ago. Only by living can you continue, right? ”
Dracula suddenly hugged her hard and shocked her. No way, that's it, you still want to drain her blood?
Dracula hugged her tightly, and after a long time he whispered in her ear: "Thank you..."
After saying this, he disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The speed was so fast that she didn't even know where she was coming from, leaving her sitting on the bed in a daze, not knowing what happened.
Who am I, where am I, what am I doing?
By the way, what did she say just now? Did you say anything?
It took a while before she remembered her last words. After thinking about it for a while, I finally figured it out.
At that time, after Dracula became a vampire, there must have been some "righteous people" who were jealous and accused him of being greedy for life and afraid of death, and signed a contract with the devil only if he didn't want to die.
In fact, when was Dracula ever afraid of death? Leading a large army, fighting in the north and south, living a life of licking blood from the edge of the knife. Even though he was besieged and there were reports outside that he was defeated and that he had died in battle, he still led the remaining troops to fight back.
And what he said just now explained why he refused to die quietly and lived with his last breath while being despised and hunted.
This powerful but pitiful Dracula, wouldn't those who want to kill him feel blushing and have consciences that hurt?
He raised his wrist and saw a small wound at the location of the blood vessel in the tiger's mouth. It had already clotted and was no longer a serious problem.
Lie down and continue to sleep. Anyway, she was heartless, and when she closed her eyes, she had no distracting thoughts, and she was able to snort in no time. In the early morning, she was supposed to set off, but Lili didn't call her, so she slept until noon. I wake up only when the sun is shining on my thighs.
He said it was Dracula's order not to disturb her rest. Anyway, there is no rush. It is still in time to set off in the evening. The worst is to postpone it for another day.
He raised his wrist and looked at it. If it weren't for this small mark, everything last night would have been a dream.
Just after lunch, the housekeeper came over and asked her to go to the jewelry warehouse to choose.
The butler stood upright, still looking like a British butler: "Please make the selection, Miss, otherwise my master will personally select a box of jewelry that he thinks is good and give it as a gift."
Choose a box... If Charlie chooses, he must try to choose the most valuable ones. She could only follow him to the warehouse. Charlie knew she wouldn't wait for a box of jewelry to arrive, it would be too embarrassing.
A room is filled with jewelry, which is more expensive than the jewelry in the jewelry store.
"The master said, please take your pick." The housekeeper stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation to the room.
Xining said casually: "Okay, pack them all up and take them away."
The housekeeper's eyes suddenly widened, and the expression made Xining laugh: "Don't be nervous, I'm just kidding."
After walking in, Xining turned around. There are cabinets all around, and some jewelry is placed on the cabinets.
A quick glance revealed that the jewelry placed on the cabinet, although brightly colored, was all flashy. There is a large amount of gold plus various gemstones that are not very transparent, and the polishing of the gemstones is not very fine. So I turned my attention to other cabinets.
There is a cabinet on the side that is the best, with exquisite patterns carved on it.
Walking over, she opened the cabinet door. Inside were two compartments, the upper one and the lower one. The upper one was a crown. Each of the diamonds and rubies on it is the size of a pigeon egg, and the middle one is a giant diamond.
The next frame is a three-piece set of emerald jewelry. The emeralds on the necklace, earrings and ring are almost the same color and feel as if they were polished from the same raw stone. Transparent, demonic green, dazzling green.
It was so beautiful that it took Xi Ning's breath away. She tilted her head slightly and said, "If I want these two pieces, I wonder if your master will give them up."
This time it was the steward's turn to be dumbfounded. He turned around and said to the dumbstruck vampire next to him: "Go and ask His Highness."
"Yes!" In just a blink of an eye, the follower disappeared into the room, and the door of the room closed with a slight "click", proving that the door had been moved just now.
The housekeeper asked: "Miss Elrafe, please continue to choose."
Xining smiled: "These two pieces are comparable to the royal family's collection, what else should I choose?"
The housekeeper said a little embarrassedly: "The lady has very good taste."
It's quite good. In fact, Xining really wants to see Charlie's expression after learning that she has chosen these two sets.
After a while, the vampire who went to report the news came back: "His Royal Highness said that he promised Miss Elrafe to choose at will. Since he agreed, it will be fine even if the miss really takes them all away."
