Lord of Secrets

The bright red lights of Xisong, which is not dark, seem to outline the prosperity of Xisong. Even if it is only close to the Camaño River, you can still smell the faint aroma of wine that is addictive.

Tavern Maria, located near the Camaño River, is the most popular tavern in the outer city.

"Really, today's goods haven't been delivered yet."

As soon as Horus arrived outside the room, he heard complaints.

"Horus, pour these down quickly!"

At this time, a voice of order came. It was the proprietress of the tavern, named Maria. She was average-looking, but she liked to wear some compact clothes to show off her figure.

And now, it's Horus' first day of work.

After all, he needed to think about his livelihood, so he took a fancy to the salary of 5 beli a day in the tavern. Of course, this was very small, but the other party provided a place to stay, which meant that he did not need to spend an additional fee.

With her conversational skills, Maria easily agreed to Horus' joining. But in reality, Horus's job is to take out the trash, which is too simple.

Horus replied softly: "I know!"

Immediately, he carried the tank truck full of wine to the dark, empty and abandoned warehouse behind the tavern. He bent down and removed the cover of the sewer pipe, then opened the bottle cork and poured out the wine in the wine tank.

Somehow, Horus felt a little bored about the warehouse.

Moving his gaze to the ground, Horus watched the dark red water flowing away from the sewer. He sighed slightly and said, "It's such a waste and it pollutes the water source."

This sewer leads to the Camaño River not far away.

But Horus had no choice. The whole Xisong was like this. The Kamanu River was already dirty, and it couldn't be changed by him stopping it once or twice.

It was busy until 12 o'clock, and Maria's Tavern finally closed. Horus came to the simple dormitory building not far from the tavern, then cleaned it up and lay down on the somewhat worn bed.

This job is mainly busy at night, and I only need to transport garbage at a few times in the morning. The rest of the time is more free.

And just when Horus was about to fall asleep, he suddenly heard a knock on the door.

Horus opened his eyes and looked at the door in the darkness. He didn't know who would knock on the door so late. After all, Horus had just arrived here not long ago, and he was basically not familiar with the other people in the tavern.

After hesitating for a second or two, Horus put on his coat and came to the door. He was just wary and then opened the door gently.

Immediately, he saw Maria standing outside the door with a bored expression. She was holding a lantern at this time.

"Horus, the convoy was blocked on the road today. The supplies have only arrived now. Please hurry up and load the goods with me."

Maria's voice was anxious.

To be honest, the previous guy did his job perfectly, but suddenly died, which was why she had to recruit new people.

Horus could only nodded. Although this was his job responsibility, it was too late after all. However, he could only complain in his heart. After all, he still needed to get money from the other party.

Following Maria to the warehouse behind the tavern, Horus saw more than ten wine barrels tied under the black cloth of the carriage.

Maria said: "These wine barrels contain some stored meat. Remember to be careful and don't hit them."

Horus was slightly confused, but didn't say anything. He just came to the back of the carriage, picked up the wine barrel, and placed it on the ground in the warehouse under Maria's command.

It's a bit heavy, this was Horus's first reaction, but it feels a little strange, as if it doesn't have the feeling of meat being piled compactly.

At the same time, he also smelled the smell of mutton, which was also mixed with a faint fragrance.

It's a pity that he is only a half-hearted "psychic" and has not learned any special knowledge about herbal medicine. He doesn't know what kind of herbal medicine emits this fragrance.

However, Horus didn't want to get too entangled. He just needed to complete the work as he was told and didn't want to pursue the secret too much.

"Gravekeepers" should keep their own secrets and not explore other people's secrets.

This is the lesson he learned in that small village, and it is the same lesson he has now become a "psychic".

After placing more than a dozen wine barrels neatly on the ground, Horus returned to his residence.

…

At 4 o'clock in the night, Horus opened his eyes, looked at the somewhat dirty ceiling, and then slowly sat up. He always felt that something was wrong. It was an irritable mentality, as if he should be guilty.

After taking a deep breath, Horus quietly left the dormitory building and came to the warehouse.

At this time, he felt that it was full of malice, which was malice towards strangers. This was an instinct coming from the "psychic".

Gently pushing the wooden door open, he came into the dim warehouse. At this time, Horus discovered that the wine barrels were gone, and there were traces of movement on the ground.

Who would go out of their way to take the meat so late?

After hesitating for a moment, Horus picked up the amethyst necklace from his arms, placed it in front of him, and then tried his best to communicate with some possible existences around him.

Suddenly, he felt as if he was communicating with a spirit that was about to dissipate.

Ten seconds later, Horus looked at the warehouse with a solemn expression, feeling the urge to burn the place down.

Because this place is full of sin.

Those wine barrels were not filled with mutton, but children, who had been sold here from afar. The scent should be a kind of incense, but it had no effect on Horus, so he didn't pay too much attention to it beforehand.

At the same time, he also learned the news that this place was just like a transfer station and would eventually be transferred to a basement.

The basement should be located in a manor because there are acres of woods. The most special thing about it is that the building looks like a brick from the back.

Looking around, Horus looked a little complicated. He didn't expect that he would be involved in some whirlpools again, but he could not convince himself to ignore this matter.

Because this is the reason why Horus has always maintained his humanity, otherwise the indifference of the former "gravekeeper" would have completely affected him.

In particular, although after coming into contact with the mysterious world, they have somewhat realized the darkness in it, Horus can sometimes explain it on the grounds that "they were influenced or bewitched".

But when he really came into contact with human trafficking in reality, he realized that people's malice actually lies in himself.

The original name of this spirit was Kodora. He could not bear the abuse in that basement, and eventually died, and came here in a trance with obsession.

When he felt the new children, Dora's consciousness that was about to disappear recovered, causing Horus's perception.

However, Horus was a little confused at this time because Dora had turned into a resentful spirit. Although her power gradually dissipated, she should be able to make some noise, but it was very quiet here.

After all, the resentful soul is already a dead creature. When it senses an intruder, it will definitely attack.

Somewhat incomprehensible, Horus could only attribute it to the fact that Cordora was already on the verge of dissipating, and he just instinctively felt a resonance with those children.

Horus had completely memorized the layout of the warehouse in his mind, and was about to leave when he suddenly heard Maria's confused voice: "Horus, is it you? What are you doing here so late?"

Horus stopped and looked at the figure outside the door, feeling a little solemn in his heart. Then he said in a voice as if he had just gotten up: "I was sleepwalking just now. When I suddenly woke up, I realized that the mutton here was definitely not mine. Go."

Maria smiled and said: "Of course, I believe you. When I first saw you, I thought you were a man with a story. The night is still long, enough for us to do interesting things."

As she spoke, Maria's voice became rippling, and her heart seemed to be filled with a little restlessness.

Horus showed a hint of excitement, but it was not obvious. He sighed slightly and said, "I'm glad that you can trust me, Maria. Otherwise, I might have to wander around again."

Maria said charmingly: "Those things are not valuable, but my tavern is still missing someone. Come on, Horus, I am yours tonight."

Under the moonlight, Maria's face seemed like a dancing girl under the dim light, with a hint of joy that stirred people's hearts.

After hearing this, Horus walked forward slowly, but the slow and delicate footsteps seemed to have a sense of rhythm, arousing the minds of the two.

Suddenly, the two of them got close.

Maria gently hugged Horus' body, rubbing her plump body against Horus, and stroking his back with her hands.

Immediately, Maria leaned her head next to Horus, and then continued to send a stream of warmth towards the other man's ear.

Finally, Maria said softly: "Horus, it's really nice to see you, but why do you come here..."

…

Maria is not the kind of beauty that looks stunning, but rather ordinary. But at this time, Horus felt that the other party was very beautiful, which was difficult to describe in words.

It was just a heartbeat, that ordinary heart suddenly started beating, wanting to get close to the other person and feel the other person's temperature.

Then……

Indulge yourself!

Horus felt strange, but didn't know what to do, so he could only let his body's instinct control him.

Feeling the softness of the other person's body, Horus couldn't help but feel strange. He had never been so close to a woman, especially when the other person had a good figure.

But... Horus always felt something strange in his heart, but he just couldn't explain it.

The ears and temples rub together!

This was what Horus suddenly thought of.

Suddenly, he heard Maria's words, like a thunder, which made his pupils shrink and he realized something was wrong.

At that moment, he quickly pushed Maria away!

However, a blush immediately appeared on his back.
