Lord of Eternal Darkness

The copper key in his hand matched with the key on the door, and the big lock was easily removed.

After tearing off the chain and pushing open the door, there was endless darkness inside, the temperature was very low, the air was a bit dull, and the dust was a bit choking.

He raised the candle in his hand and carefully peeked inside. There seemed to be a lot of old furniture piled inside.

Stepping into the dark realm of this location, he groped carefully in the darkness. There seemed to be a door ahead illuminated by candlelight, and the key in his hand was useless.

He looked at the sealing spell pattern on the door and frowned. It seemed to be in the West German language and he had never learned it.

Li Xiaoming prepared to return the same way, "It seems that this is the real location of the seal. I just came here to take a look. Let's find someone to come and take a look tomorrow."

Suddenly there was a strange sound from the other side of the door.

"Don't abandon me, save me..."

Li Xiaoming was stunned. There was something behind the door, and it seemed to be alive, but after so long, there shouldn't be anyone alive except the nightmare beast.

"I can't save you, so leave!"

Li Xiaoming clasped his hands in his fists, said sorry, then turned around and left with the candle in his hand.

The terrifying sound came again.

"Help me, I don't belong here."

"In that endless darkness, there is only one candle, burning forever, but it cannot illuminate all the darkness."

"The faceless mad god hates you, curses you, and rewards you with evil and sorrow!"

A large number of strange words suddenly came out of Li Xiaoming's mind. He was trembling all over and felt the air was cold, but he still shouted stubbornly: "Louder, I can't hear you!"

The other party did not respond to his taunts, and was still reciting strange lines. The voices behind the door became more and more intense, and the sounds of delusion were endless.

Pain grew in his heart, and his eardrums were about to be punctured, but he still stubbornly stepped back, gradually approaching the exit.

At this moment, a man's voice sounded behind him, and Li Xiaoming almost couldn't distinguish the hallucination.

"Young man, you shouldn't be here."

Edqi's voice sounded a little vague, and some helplessness could be heard in his tone.

Li Xiaoming shook his head and covered his brain as the illusions in front of him kept overlapping.

Why is Edqi here? Is it an illusion? He stared at the other person warily.

The noises of rats kept ringing in my ears. The sounds of countless rats scratching, hissing, and running, almost frantically biting something, and the friction of rodent teeth made people very irritated.

Adachi took out a flute. This green flute exuded light green fluorescence in the darkness.

The moment he blew the bass, all the noise disappeared and turned into a screaming sound. It was as pleasant as lifting a heavy black coffin board and breathing fresh air again.

"He is not something you can resist. Fortunately, your consciousness is strong enough and you did not fall into it immediately. But as time goes by, it will slowly erode your sanity. While the lingering effect of this lingering sound is still there, quickly leave."

Edqi said unhurriedly, then turned and left, leaving a long and thin shadow on the steps, and he returned to the dim light world.

"Thank you, senior."

Li Xiaoming gasped for breath, and his consciousness had fallen into a state of alternation between blur and reality. In the darkness where he couldn't see his fingers, all his thinking was slowed down.

He thought calmly, why would he take the risk to open this door alone?

Before a big mistake is made, forget about anything else for the time being and escape first.

Li Xiaoming stumbled out of the dungeon, his vision slowly returned to the light, and he gradually felt the warmth. He collapsed on the ground, his shirt already soaked with sweat.

He took off his sweat-soaked clothes, revealing his toned muscles.

He lowered his head and looked at the red tattoo on his arm. What kind of power was it that made the red dragon dare not show up? Or is there some kind of seal inside, like the space confinement spell in the city sewer last time? ?

Li Xiaoming couldn't care less about unnecessary thinking. He just wanted to have a good sleep now.

"Adeqi definitely knows something, but it's better not to disturb him now. I was tricked by that woman. This apartment is getting more and more interesting."

He dragged his tired body back to the room, threw himself directly on the bed, and fell asleep quietly.

A sharp cat meow came from nowhere, breaking the silence of the night.

Suddenly he opened his eyes suddenly and stared at the dark wall with some confusion.

At first, he suspected that after coming into contact with something indescribable, part of his mind was eroded and he had hallucinations, but he increasingly felt that these were real.

Some unknown liquid spread from the walls and corners, and surrounded the bed where he was, like a small boat on the sea.

A bit of cool air came from the unclosed windows, and the curtains were blown by the wind, twisting wantonly, as if some evil spirit was dancing happily.

He heard the rat again.

Deep within that ancient stone wall, is there really that disgusting creature that chooses to lie dormant during the day and wait for opportunities to move at night?

Those unclean things seemed to be hiding in a corner, quietly snooping, waiting for him to fall asleep, and then swarmed up to devour him.

Still so irritable, still so noisy, it was so noisy that it made people feel heartbroken, as if there were millions of mice buzzing in his ears, scratching his heart over and over again, causing hallucinations in both eyes.

But he knew that it was this ancient stone wall that imprisoned those humble and filthy evil things.

Once the wall collapses, tens of thousands of rats inside will swarm out, devouring everything in sight to satisfy their ravenous desires.

He climbed up from the bed and touched the ground lightly with his toes. The black stains receded to make way for him, and he slowly walked to the wall.

The sound of mice in my ears became more and more joyful, and the activities became more frequent.

Li Xiaoming knew what to do in this situation, after all, he was a professional.

Betting on the title of the Lord of Eternal Darkness; the name of the owner of a small restaurant in Anzu City; the honor of the most handsome, strongest, and youngest dreamer in history; the status of the Holy Son of the Saints; the identity of Chu Moyue's fiancé, and Jincheng An's life, he will definitely solve all these problems.

His eyes became dark, and the Meng Yuan in his body was re-mobilized and became active.

He slowly said a word, and it was as if there was a supreme power suppressing all this evil.

"Hey Jerry, are you in there? Do you want me to get you two cheeses?"

The other side of the wall suddenly became quiet, and everything became calm again, as if nothing happened.

Li Xiaoming knocked on the wall depressedly. "Are you still here? If you are, just give me a squeak."

There were two "squeaking" sounds coming from the wall.

"You're quite cooperative. Please be quiet and don't disturb my sleep. Be careful tomorrow. I'll use the laws of physics to defeat you. I'll blow up your foundation with just one missile."

What is arrogance? This is called arrogance.

After making this threat, there was completely no sound in the wall, and Li Xiaoming stretched out comfortably and lay back on the bed.

Nothing happened all night.

He got up early the next morning and didn't sleep too much. It seemed that he didn't get a good rest last night.

Mary hummed in the kitchen and twisted her waist. Her dexterous hands touched the ingredients and instantly transformed them into delicious dishes.

If you marry such a woman, your waist will be broken. Of course, this means that if you eat too much and move too little, you will easily gain weight and cause three high diseases.

Mary smiled and said, "You woke up. It's quite early. I think the other two are also your classmates. They go to school after 9 o'clock every morning. It's only 7 o'clock now."

"I can't sleep. I'm a little uncomfortable. Let's get used to my bed in the future. By the way, Sister Mary, what did you do? It's so fragrant. Just the smell of it makes me full."

"Oh, my little brother is really good at talking. Don't worry, I will definitely add more meat to you later."

"Huh? Thank you. By the way, what you are making should be mutton soup, right?" Li Xiaoming glanced into the pot.

Mary held the spoon and handed it over, "I actually guessed it. It's really good. Just try it for me."

Li Xiaoming stuck out his tongue to taste it. It was delicious, warm and comforting. It was great on a cold morning.

"It tastes so good. It's absolutely top-notch. Can you tell me the recipe? I want to try it next time."

Mary said in surprise: "Okay, this is a dish I'm new to, so it's not really a secret."

The two seemed to be having a peaceful and friendly exchange, but in fact they didn't see each other in their eyes. As for what they were thinking in their hearts, it was even more difficult to guess.

After chatting with the other party for a long time, Li Xiaoming felt that the other party was pretending to be confused but it was not convenient to reveal it directly.

"Miss Mary, did you leave a set of keys at my door yesterday?"

She said dejectedly: "Yes, that's the key to the underground warehouse, but it's a pity that I can't find it now."

"Oh, it was too dark yesterday and the lighting in the corridor was not good. It fell in the corner behind the flowerpot. I found it for you. You must keep it properly in the future." Li Xiaoming grabbed the other person's hand and held the key tightly. Put it into the other person's hand, with a warm smile on his face.

The other party was stunned for a moment, and showed the same smile in return, so that the situation would not be awkward.

"Ah, huh?"

Gu Gui had just gotten up. He was exhausted from the hundreds of herbal combinations yesterday.

As soon as I smelled the fragrance, I was about to come over and have a bowl of soup. I didn't expect to see such an ambiguous scene in front of me. The new tenant kept holding Miss Mary's hand with a crazy smile on his face. .

Even the smile on Miss Mary's face felt extraordinarily charming.

"Hey, what are you doing? In broad daylight." He scolded.

The two people also reacted and hurriedly let go of their hands. Li Xiaoming went to prepare the tableware for drinking soup. Mary had already turned around and continued to play with the soup in the pot, fishing out the floating foam.

Gu Gui vaguely felt that something was wrong between the two of them, but he was not a natural prophet or a dreamer. He could see into people's hearts. More importantly, he didn't like to meddle in other people's affairs for no reason, except adding meat, of course.

"Pay attention. Of course, I didn't see anything. Maybe I was a little dizzy from hunger in the morning, so I hope I can add more meat to my portion later."

Mary nodded calmly, "Okay, I really hope you can choke yourself to death when you drink the soup later."

Gu Gui said: "Hey, don't say such horrible things with such a calm face."

"Xiaogu, are you a little too indulgent? Believe it or not, there won't be a piece of meat in your bowl later."

…

After a while everyone got up and sat around the dining table. Because there were so many people, it was very solemn and had to be pretended.

The lonely ghost shouted: "Thank you to the supreme and great Holy Spirit for giving us abundant food, nourishing our body, mind and soul, and clearing away all sins. Finally, may the glory be with the emperor, and the blue god be above."

Everyone shouted in unison: "May the glory be with the emperor!"

Then they tasted the food very politely, causing the table to be unusually quiet. Only the sound of sparse clinking of tableware could be heard. When they chewed the food, their sounds were also extremely soft.

Maybe it's in line with the ancient Chinese saying, "You don't talk when you eat, but you don't talk when you sleep," right?

Li Xiaoming was also infected by the atmosphere, although he didn't understand why eating a meal in the morning was so serious.

But there were girls at the table, so they couldn't lose their image by gobbling it down, so it took them 30 minutes to finish the meal.

After everyone finished eating, they took the initiative to clear away the dishes. After all, with Mary's personality, it was impossible for her to do such menial work as washing the dishes. Being able to cook for them was considered the most benevolent thing.

Although Miss Mary also brought up some snacks and wanted to share them with everyone, everyone gave them various excuses. Some went back to practice piano, some went to school, some went to work, and one was busy washing dishes. No, I should say two.

Li Xiaoming looked at the lonely ghost who was working hard to wash the dishes next to him, and couldn't help but sigh: "I thought you were a very aloof person, but I didn't expect you to be here washing the dishes."

"What's wrong with washing the dishes? Labor is the most glorious thing. Who doesn't want to eat? The important thing is, do you think the snacks she made are edible? They are as toxic as pesticides."

As he spoke, Gu Gui looked behind him and breathed a sigh of relief when he didn't see the red-haired woman.

"By the way, I didn't expect that you, a college student, would wash the dishes with me. Aren't you going to class?"

Li Xiaoming told the truth: "My class is in the afternoon. The main reason is that you work too hard. I just let you wash the dishes by yourself. I don't care. By the way, can you do the laundry?"

Gu Gui said: "Haha, believe me, you will fall in love with this place in a short time. Although the apartment is not big, there are many weird things in it. I also plan to recruit a few more and some washing machines to come in and chat with you. "

Li Xiaoming was amused and said with a smile: "No more chatting, the landlord would like to try the rainbow candy made by Miss Mary. It is very elastic and a little sticky to the teeth."

Li Xiaoming handed over a handful of rainbow candies, and the other party jumped up instantly, with a cold sweat breaking out on his forehead, as if a timid person panics when he sees a mouse.

"Take it away, it's a curse! Take it away!"

He yelled angrily, and then washed the dishes without saying a word. This guy actually dared to eat the food made by that woman. It was simply terrifying.
