Chapter 424: Singing under the Deep Space
The old man's house does not look rich and the furnishings are very old.
"Are you from another place?" The old man held the candle and carefully closed it with his hands to prevent the light from running out.
"Yeah." Luo Huai nodded. He also squatted on the ground in the old man's posture.
"No wonder you are still standing outside in a daze."
"What happens at night?" Luo Huai discovered that this world might not be normal.
The fall of the angel is probably not that simple.
"There will be deep divers coming out of the sea, and theirs will capture all those who hold the light." The old man said, and after saying that, he looked at the candle in his hand, he thought about it and blew it away in one breath.
"Diver? What is that?" Luo Huai asked. This should not be the same thing as the one in his cognition, right? But when he heard it, it looked quite similar.
"I don't know, I just know it's a kind of monster. Those who have seen them have been dragged into the deep sea. No one can see their appearance clearly."
"Then how do you know it's called a Deep Diver?" Luo Huai immediately discovered a logical bug.
"It was the nuns of the church in our village that the church was the only place where lights could be on at night." The old man actually didn't understand it very much. He continued, "The name of the diving man was learned by the nun from the oracle."
"By the way, what are you doing here? We haven't been here for a long time."
"I'm here... looking for something. Have you heard of the Deep Sea Lord?" Luo Huai saw that the old man was very enthusiastic and simply asked directly.
But this kind of clue is not something that ordinary people can know. The old man just thought for a moment and shook his head and said, "I haven't heard of it. Is it a legend? But there are no lords here, let alone in the sea."
Not necessarily... Luo Huai thought to himself, after all, even the deep diving people came out, so it was not surprising that there was an existence that governed them.
"Maybe you can go to the church tomorrow. The nun is the person who knows the most knowledgeable person in our village... She also serves as the teacher of the children."
"All right……"
Let's rest now.
It's strange that the old man's house did not have a bedroom. The way he could rest was to find a small corner to take out two blankets, lay down one by one and cover.
He dared to do this as soon as he let a stranger enter the house, and the old man became very worried.
Luo Huai walked to the window and looked outside through the gaps in the curtains.
The street was pitch black and silent. Although he had night vision, his vision angle was limited and he saw nothing.
He closed his eyes gently, and opened the Eye of Destiny on his forehead.
His vision extended through the darkness and was no longer restricted. Only then did he see a few figures walking on the street.
It's a bit like a fishman, but in comparison, there are more human parts. The body is between strong and bloated, and the head is replaced by the shape of the fish. However, the head of this fish is not normal, and it is impossible to see what breed it is. At most, it can only be seen that it is in the water, and its fangs are very ferocious.
I was still covered with something like aquatic plants or kelp, walking on the uneven bricks and tiles, making a dragging sound, leaving a long water stain behind.
"But..." Luo Huai couldn't help but think, "If the diving people went ashore to kidnap the person who emitted the light, then there is no one who turned on the light now. Are they just walking ashore for a while?"
Obviously not, then there is only one answer.
church.
Only there can release light in the night, and the diving man should be walking there now.
The nun should not be an ordinary person, otherwise he would have been captured by the diving man long ago.
Luo Huai inferred that she should be a believer and what methods can she disperse the deep dives or deter them.
You can't wait until the daytime, and the behavioral interaction between the nun and the diver may reveal a lot of key information.
The fusion blood flowed out, wrapping Luo Huai and absorbing the surrounding light at the same time.
If you want to be invisible in the dark, you don’t necessarily need to simulate black. You just need to absorb the light and achieve the same effect.
Then he flipped out of the window and closed it again.
He trotted silently along the water stains left by the divester.
The town is bigger than expected, and the diving is not going straight.
Luo Huai simply pulled the spider silk and jumped to a taller house.
Looking into the distance, there are endless mountains and seas, and I don’t see any road leading out. No wonder no outsiders have come to this town for a long time.
A sense of incongruity lingers in Luo Huai's heart.
"How did this period develop?"
Without a road outside, how did a small town develop to such a large scale?
Especially some facilities in the town are not like people in a small town who can figure it out by themselves.
After watching for a while, Luo Huai finally discovered where this sense of incongruity came from.
The entire town seemed to have hollowed out a piece of terrain and stuffed it in it, and there was no trace of the natural development of the community from it.
It was as if the town was so big at the beginning.
However, it is still unknown what secrets are there, so let’s look at the main thing first.
Luo Huai noticed early on that there was a light in the center of the town in the distance, which should be the church there.
After a few crosses, Luo Huai arrived near the church.
The faint sound of piano came from the backyard of the church, and the tone was gentle, which made this dead night feel more peaceful.
Luo Huai walked around the church, passed several houses and came to the backyard of the church.
A nun in a white holy robe sat by the fountain in the backyard, with his face invisible, and a tight little harp on his knees.
The slender and slender fingers plucked the strings, making a trembling sound, and the ethereal voice whispered a gentle tune.
Under the night sky, this is a beautiful scenery that can be called a scroll.
But around this scroll, it is not something that ordinary people dare to approach.
Just a few meters apart, there is a bright transition to something terrifying.
A dozen dives were quietly surrounded outside the fence in the backyard.
They make dull whispers, like the sounds made in the organs after being blocked by water and foam.
Well, it was like a drowning person, with the last struggle.
But it was the nun and the deep diving who lived in harmony at this moment.
The light did not dispel darkness, and the darkness did not want to devour light.
Luo Huai knew that he could not go out at this time, and this balance could not be broken, otherwise it might not be pleasing to both sides.
Let's wait for the end...
But this wait took a long time until the white curtain began to rise to the east and the darkness had to retreat.
The nun's singing gradually faded and finally returned to the tranquility of dawn.
