Bride of Death

The beautiful city of Vodassar is divided into two regions by the river.On one side of the river is the castle area on the hills to the north, while on the other side is the area of ​​civilian life.

The warm setting sun quietly sprinkles on the light blue wall.Yi Yousan held the black cat in his arms, and looked at the surrounding scenery curiously.He couldn't figure out why the sun was so warm, but there was no one on the street.

Is this an empty city?

"Liu Liu, it's almost noon, why is there no one on the street?" Yi Ersan asked while leaning against the wall, looking up at the sky.

"Meow." The black cat narrowed its pupils and looked around vigilantly.

"Boom boom boom——"

The ancient bell of the church struck three times, and there was a low cry not far away.Yi Ersan hid in the alley with the black cat in his arms. He looked around and saw a man wearing a bird's beak mask walking over with a cane.

The man was wearing a linen robe and a black hat. Under the beak-like mask, there were a pair of light blue eyes.Behind the man were eight people, six monks in black robes, and two sobbing women holding handkerchiefs.

The monks carried a black wooden coffin, covered with a white cloth, with a bright red cross drawn in the center of the white cloth.

Just when they were about to pass the alley, the masked man stopped, sniffed the alley with his sharp beak, and said coldly:

"Stop."

Yi Ersan was taken aback, and just when the masked man was about to see him, he jumped onto the roof with the black cat in his arms.

"Doctor Delman, what's the matter?" The young woman stopped sobbing, and walked carefully to the masked man's side and said respectfully.

"It smells strange." The masked man said.

"Those who have died and fled all these years, how could strangers come here." The woman touched the tears at the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.

"Let's go." The masked man said lightly.

The woman hummed, walked to the coffin, sobbed:

"My dear, forgive me."

A group of people continued to move forward, Yi Ersan was lying on the roof and stared dumbfounded.He rubbed the top of the black cat's head and said:

"Liu Liu, what are these people doing? Why are they dressed so strangely?"

Siwuliu was thoughtful, he jumped out of Yi Yousan's arms, wagged his tail, and meowed softly.

"Liu Liu, do you want me to follow them?" Yi Er asked.

Siwuliu nodded, and walked on the roof with a cat on foot.Yi Yousan followed behind the black cat, and a strange feeling came from within.He looked into the distance, and the originally clear sky suddenly became cloudy.

The whole city was shrouded in the haze of death, with cold eyes watching the funeral procession from behind the window, the initial fear gradually became normal.

The funeral procession came to a wasteland, and Yi Ersan couldn't stop retching due to the rotten smell.

"It smells so strong!" Yi Ersan pinched his nose and said.

Siwuliu's eyes narrowed. Fudasar city was not under his jurisdiction. So many people died here, why didn't the god of death in charge of this area report it?

Doctor Niaozui slowly raised his left hand, and the monks behind him slowly lowered the coffin as if they had received the order.Women stood on either side of the coffin, and one of the younger women lifted the white sermon that covered the coffin:

"Bruce, may you reach heaven smoothly."

Two of the monks lifted up the coffin board, and saw a man covered in pustules struggling in pain in the coffin to get up.The young woman was startled, she retreated to the side of the masked man, and said timidly:

"Dr. Delman, is my husband really hopeless?"

"Alyssa, your husband has contracted the Black Death, and his soul has been devoured by the devil. Only the holy fire can save his soul."

"Whoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo my poor Bruce!"

The young woman knelt on the ground and wept bitterly. The older woman helped her up and walked to the coffin.

Delman leaned on a cane and said coldly:

"Send the living to heaven."

The monks lit the torches and stood around the coffin.The man lying in the coffin yelled in horror:

"Crazy, a bunch of crazy! I'm still alive! I'm not dead! Alisa, my dear wife, help me! I'm still alive!"

However, everyone looked at him as if they were looking at a corpse.Brown-yellow pus flowed out of the pustules, and the man broke down and danced.The monks threw the torches into the coffin, the screams were deafening, and the man was instantly ignited by the flames.

The man wanted to climb out of the coffin, but his body was wrapped in iron chains.The chain was burned red by the fire, and the man stopped after struggling twice.

Yi Ersan covered his mouth and almost screamed, the scene in front of him was too horrifying, he wanted to hug the black cat and leave this weird place quickly.However, when he looked down, he found that the black cat had long since disappeared.

"Six six?" Yi Yousan whispered.

Yi Ersan jumped down from the tree trunk, but he never thought that at the moment he jumped down, there would be a man wearing a bird's beak mask under the big tree.

"Young master, this is not the place for you." Delman looked down at Yi Er and said.

Yi Yousan was dressed in aristocratic attire, with fair skin, no matter how you looked at it, he was a pampered and pampered son of aristocrats.Yi Ersan blinked his eyes, and took a step back somewhat at a loss, saying:

"My cat is missing, it's called Liuliu."

"Young master, where is your servant?" Delman sighed helplessly.

"What is a domestic servant?" Yi Ersan asked with his head tilted.

Delman looked Yi Yousan up and down, black hair and black eyes didn't look like a local, could it be the child of a traveling merchant?

"It's very dangerous here. If you don't want to contract the Black Death, get out of here quickly." Delman lost his patience, and he had other patients to deal with.

"What is the Black Death?" Yi You asked three times.

"Aren't you a local?" Delman looked at Yi Ersan warily and asked.

"No, Mr. Crow, my cat is gone. Have you ever seen a cat that is completely black." Yi Er said three times.

"I didn't see it, please get out of here quickly." Dr. Delman said.

Yi Yousan lowered his head in frustration, and Delman sighed, he could see that the young man in front of him was an out-and-out fool.

"What's your name?" Delman asked.

"Yi Er three." Yi Er said three times.

"Young master, where is your family?" Delman frowned.

"Family, what is family?" Yi Ersan asked with his head tilted.

"It's someone who is close to you." Delman said.

"A close person? Does Arthur count?" Yi Ersan's eyes lit up.

"Forget it, what about others?" Delman continued.

"Below." Yi Ersan pointed to the ground and said.

Delman's eyes widened, he completely misunderstood what Yi Ersan meant, and thought:

'The child's family is estimated to have also been killed by the plague. '

"Do you want to go home with me?" Delman looked at Yi Er with pity.

But his answer was:

"Mr. Crow, can you help me find Liuliu together?"

"Of course, the premise is that you stay by my side obediently. Don't call me Mr. Crow, my name is Delman Bastru." Delman said.

Yi Ersan nodded, and walked around Delman to the coffin.Looking at the burnt coffin, Yi Ersan knelt down and said indifferently:

"Why are you still lying in the coffin and refuse to come out?"

His words scared everyone present.

"Sir, who are you talking to?" Alisa looked at Yi Er in horror and asked.

Yi Ersan pointed to the bones lying in the coffin and said:

"he."

"Please don't make such silly jokes!" the old woman said.

Yi Ersan shook his head and said:

"He said he had a crucifix in his ribcage and the crucifix was weighing him down."

Delman hurriedly walked in front of Yi Ersan, smoothed things over and said:

"This is my cousin from the countryside. He had a serious illness a few years ago and burned his brain out. The devil is still lingering around us. The sun is about to set, and we must go back before dark."

When they heard that it was Dr. Delman's cousin, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

A group of people walked towards the city gate. Seeing that everyone had almost left, Delman then squatted down and reached out to take out the cross stuck in the chest of the corpse.Delman looked at Yi Yousan more and more complicatedly. He didn't want to cause trouble, but he really couldn't bear to leave a fool in the wilderness.

"Master, would you like to go home with me?" Delman said.

"But...my cat." Yi Ersan hesitated.

"The city of Vodassar in the dark is very dangerous. Be obedient, I will bring you to find it tomorrow morning." Delman said.

"Mr. Crow, it doesn't matter if I'm alone. Liuliu is my family, and I must find him." Yi Ersan said seriously.

Seeing that the young man in front of him had made up his mind, Delman said no more, turned around and took a few steps backwards, and said back:

"My clinic is on the lower reaches of the Pusu River. If you need anything, you can come to the city to find me."

"Thank you, Mr. Crow." Yi Er san waved his hand in thanks.

Delman took one last look at Yi Yousan's side face, then walked towards the city gate without looking back.A fool who doesn't understand anything will never see the sun the next day in this plague-filled dead city.

If it was before, Delman would definitely take Yi Ersan home, or send him to the church to be taken care of by the priest.Now everyone is too busy to take care of themselves, he is already benevolent, it is this fool who doesn't know how to cherish.

After Delman left, Yi Yousan knelt beside the corpse and said lightly:

"Why are you still lying in there and refusing to come out?"

The scorched skull of the corpse turned slightly, making a creaking sound.Yi Ersan propped his chin, let out a sigh and said:

"Your wife also contracted the bubonic plague? Wait... you mean... your wife infected you with the bubonic plague, but she was fine and you were killed Stuffed into a coffin and executed at the stake?"

Except for the skin and internal organs, Bruce's body was only a pile of black bones.He raised his finger with difficulty, and just when his finger was about to touch Yi Ersan's ankle, a sharp sickle fell from the sky, and the bones of Bruce's hand were chopped off.

Yi Ersan looked up along the sharp edge of the sickle, and saw a man in a black robe looking at him without blinking.

"Who are you?" Yi Yousan stared blankly at the man in front of him and asked.

The man's golden vertical pupils formed a slender vertical line, and with a slight pick of the sickle, Bruce's soul floated out of his bones.Bruce struggled to rush into Yi Ersan's body, but his soul seemed to be stuck to the sickle, and he couldn't escape no matter how hard he struggled.

The wind gently blew away the brim of the man's black robe. Under his fierce face, the eyes looking at him were so gentle.

family?

The man smiled lightly, and with a little force on his wrist, Bruce's soul was instantly wiped out.

"Are you the god of death?" Yi Yousan tilted his head, looked at the man in confusion and asked.

The man nodded, walked up to him, took his left hand, kissed the back of his hand and said:

"Siwuliu, my name."
