Chapter 137 The House of Usher's Collapse
Behind Roderick and Molivić were fighting in full swing in the violently shaking House of Usher, and Lexuan finally saw the body of Miss Madeleine, who never appeared in the plot but was one of the indispensable important characters. .
"Hey, beautiful lady, wake up, I know you are not dead." Le Xuan leaned closer to Madeleine who was lying on the bed in the corner of the room, and whispered: "If you don't open your eyes again, Molivich is afraid that you will die." I'm going to be hammered to death by your elder brother."
Madeleine was still wearing the shroud when she was buried. The white shroud had already been stained mottled with blood. Hearing Le Xuan's words, Madeleine opened her eyes, her slightly pale face was full of blood. With ferocious hatred, he slowly got up, and his blood-red eyes looked in the direction of Roderick and Molivich through the door.
"Mr. Brave, thank you for freeing my soul." Although Madeleine's face was grim at the moment, she was still polite. Express gratitude to your benefactor.
And at this time, Le Xuan's long-awaited system notification finally arrived.
"Trigger plot: The collapse of the House of Usher, exploration completion rate, 95%, branch plot: Wrath of the infatuated has been completed, reward skill points 3, experience value 3000.
Task Tip: Escape from the House of Usher. "
"Miss Madeleine, you are busy first, see you later!" After the system prompted, Le Xuan turned around and ran away without saying a word, and did not forget to slap Roderick and Molivić when they passed the battlefield. call.
"Hey, two big bosses, I hope you have a good time playing this time!" Le Xuan twisted his buttocks at the stairs, and jumped directly from the stairs, when the House of Usher shook more and more. The situation became serious, and large areas of the ceiling began to fall off, and the dusty crystal lamps also smashed to the ground one after another while shaking, making loud noises.
Le Xuan finally realized what kind of mood people felt when escaping from the earthquake. When they ran back to the first floor, the wooden stairs completely collapsed. He opened the gate and ran into the empty courtyard.
"Brother, let's go to hell together!" Madeleine's stern roar came from the house of Usher that was completely collapsing: "Molivich, I'm sorry!"
Le Xuan watched the House of Usher turn into a pile of ruins in the blink of an eye, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. When Le Xuan turned his head, he saw the second half of the poem engraved on a sculpture in the yard.
"The traveler in the joyous valley,
Visible through two bright windows:
The elves danced to the music,
To the melody of poetry and Qin Cong Cong,
around the king's throne,
Your Majesty Reason,
Luxurious and dignified,
The king of a country is extraordinarily majestic.
Pearls glisten, gems glisten,
The gates of Asgard shine,
Clothes fluttering, glory glowing,
The fairies came one after another.
The echo is far away,
Wonderful sound surrounds the beam,
Their mission is to sing,
Praise his king for his unparalleled wisdom.
Now the traveler steps into the valley,
Through the window that reflects blood,
But seeing ghostly shadows,
Dancing with piercing music;
As mighty as the dreadful Styx,
Through the pale palace gate,
The demons have come,
Laughing wildly, never smiling calmly. "
Repeatedly reading this poem silently several times, Le Xuan felt more and more a gloomy and heavy atmosphere began to cover his heart, like a lingering dark cloud, bit by bit eating away at his thoughts .
Looking at the ruins in front of him and Madeleine's final roar echoing in his ears, Le Xuan shook his head helplessly.
"Laughing wildly, don't you see a calm smile again?" Le Xuan said to himself: "If one day I also encounter the situation like Molivich, what will I do? I will be willing to bind my soul for hundreds of years, just to pursue a A vague hope? Maybe not."
Returning to the rental house consciously, Le Xuan quietly looked at Du Qingxue who was sleeping soundly, unable to calm down for a long time, and didn't even bother to read the final reward message.
When the sky turned pale, and the first ray of sunlight shone through the window into the room, Du Qingxue opened her eyes sleepily, and what she saw was Le Xuan, whose eyes were bloodshot and staring straight at her.
"Ah!" Du Qingxue subconsciously slapped Le Xuan on the face, covering Le Xuan's face directly, covering her face and staring at Du Qingxue blankly, looking as if she was wronged. The little daughter-in-law who dare not speak.
"I'm sorry, why are you staring at me so early in the morning?" Du Qingxue broke free from the half-dream state, and said awkwardly, "Why are your eyes so red? Haven't you slept all night?"
"It's nothing." Le Xuan got up rubbing his numb face, and said, "Go eat fried dough sticks."
As the National Day approaches, the temperature has gradually turned cooler, especially in the early morning, when most people have put on thin coats, but Le Xuan is still wearing a dirty short-sleeved T-shirt, which seems a bit out of place in the crowd, especially when there are still people around. There is a beautiful girl with a disaster level, which attracts the attention of passers-by even more.
But at this time, besides the morning exercise enthusiasts, the office workers who are anxious to squeeze the bus and subway, just took a quick glance, and then buried themselves in their own things.
There is a well-known fried dough stick stand at the back door of Jiangnan University, and there is a long queue every morning. At this moment, Le Xuan and Du Qingxue are standing at the end of the queue, sniffing the rich aroma in the air and swallowing their mouths.
"Mr. Le, what a coincidence." Luo Fei, Xia Nan's bodyguard, happened to line up behind Le Xuan, and greeted him: "I haven't seen you for a few days, why are you so haggard?"
"Go and experience a horror movie yourself and try to stay up all night." Le Xuan muttered in his heart, but said with a smile on his face: "How is Nan Nan, are you almost ready for the exhibition?"
"It's okay." Luo Fei couldn't help frowning: "However, the incidents in Luoyang have been raging recently. The lady is in a bad mood, and Tian Shao doesn't know where she went, so the past few days, the lady is always restless. .”
"Tell Nan Nan, don't worry about Luoyang, that guy in Xia Tian will take care of it." Le Xuan said with a smile: "By the way, Lingyang City is not peaceful recently, don't run around if you have nothing to do."
"Grandpa, grandson is calling you!"
As soon as the words were finished, Le Xuan's knockoff mobile phone with an exceptionally good speaker suddenly rang. Under the contemptuous gaze of the surrounding crowd, Le Xuan took out the mobile phone and looked at it without changing his expression.
"Stinky boy, why are you still alive?" Le Xuan said dirtyly, "How is things going?"
"Something happened!" Xia Tian said anxiously: "I'm waiting for you on the top floor of Jietian Pavilion, come here immediately!"
After talking about Xia Tian, he hung up the phone without giving Le Xuan a chance to respond.
"Your mother's hot, is it your husky who raises me?" Le Xuan put away his phone angrily, and said to Du Qingxue, "Qingxue, you and Luo Fei go back to Nannan's place first, and I'll go after I finish my work." pick you up."
