Mulgore Hotel in Marvel

Chapter 178 Gravekeeper

This is a very old cemetery.

Graves were gathered together on the land, and commemorative stones were erected on each grave. The turf is neatly built, which gives the dense tombs some beauty.

There is a small courtyard in the northeast corner of the cemetery, surrounded by a bamboo fence that is only half a person's height. There are several rooms built in the yard, and a lantern hangs under the eaves of the gate. It was not dark yet, so the lantern was not lit.

In front of the house is a small garden, where there are more than a dozen small wooden signs standing neatly, with flowers planted neatly in front of each wooden sign, like mini tombstones.

There was a small stable next to it, and an old tawny horse stood there quietly. Even if there were four people hanging around outside the door, the old horse remained silent and didn't even bother to look up.

"Is there anyone there?" Kaus called several times and heard no movement in the house. He walked a few steps around the fence and was about to try to see what was going on inside from the window. Suddenly there was a "squeak" sound, the door opened, and an old man with gray hair wearing a cowboy hat walked out.

"Are you here for a visit?" The old man had a typical Texan face and a red rosacea. He had a pipe in his wrinkled shirt pocket and a pair of reading glasses on his clothes button.

"Oh, no!" Kausu tried to talk to the old man guarding the tomb, "Our car broke down and needs repairs - but you know those roadside assistance workers... they enjoy taxpayer benefits every week, but they I've never done anything serious."

The old man guarding the tomb squinted his eyes and looked at the four people in front of him. After a while, he shook his head: "Sorry, I know almost nothing about these, and I only have carpentry tools here, and maybe some wrenches and pliers. These are all fine." Lend it to you..."

Kausi shook his head regretfully. Of the four people on his side, Matt Murdock is a blind man, Erica is a killer, Carrie only knows how to eat, and he also has a bad eye for repairing cars - not everyone They all have the kind of master-level and hierarch-level mechanical skills that Tony Stark has.

What's more, the car was kicked by Jiali just now. If the car was lying on the floor before, it was a minor injury, but now it may have become a serious injury.

"Okay, we'll call roadside assistance!" Kaus thought for a while and decided not to trouble others. He nodded politely to the old man, and then left with Erica and others, preparing to find a suitable place to start a campsite nearby.

The old man guarding the tomb was very polite. He pointed not far away and said, "There is a small forest over there. You can camp nearby."

Following his guidance, Kaus and others came to the outside of the forest, which was indeed a natural camping spot. You can still vaguely see the traces of other people's previous campsites, and even a small pool of bonfire embers can be seen in the unfilled pit next to it.

Erica took out her cell phone to make a call, while Kausi and Matt pushed the car aside and parked it. Several people moved tents, food and other things out of the car and began to set up a small campsite.

The only regret was that until nightfall, none of them found any edible game. This disappointed the little greedy cat Carrie.

An eerie cool breeze blows from the cemetery at night, bringing with it the smell of soil mixed with grass. A crescent moon slowly rises above the treetops, the pale moonlight casts a cold halo of light, and creates a light milky white mist.

Both Erica and Matt had fallen asleep, and only Carrie was sitting by the fire with her knees in her arms, talking quietly to Kausu.

"When does Erica's lucky day end?"

"There are still two or three days to go... The goddess of fate is accustomed to using 'weeks' as the unit of time." Carrie looked very familiar with the three sisters of fate. "My dad once told me in a casual chat that they were very familiar with 'seven'. I like this number very much. It takes seven days for bad luck to come, and it also takes seven days for good luck to come."

"But every planet's rotation period is different."

"Well, yes, so for fate to favor us, good or bad, no matter how long each day is, there are seven rotation cycles."

"In other words, if there is a planet that rotates once for 500 hours, then those people who are favored will be blessed, with a bonus of 3,500 hours of luck!"

Carrie nodded, "So if they encounter bad luck, they will also become very long..."

"Okay, that's fair!" Kausu thought for a moment and then asked, "But that guy lurking under the water doesn't look like 'lucky' in any way."

"It's lucky for Erica." Carrie explained, "Obviously, this thing was destined to happen before the lucky day started, so Erica avoided the guy's sneak attack - of course, people It might just be surveillance at first, until you force him out."

Kaus nodded, indicating that he completely understood.

"Who is watching us?"

Carrie shook her head and said she didn't know either.

"Actually, omniscience and omnipotence are not necessarily a good thing!" Kausi sighed softly, "I understand Gu Yi a little now. When a completely known thing happens in front of me, it basically means that I have lost sight of it. No interest. No excitement, no fun at all."

Jiali came over, kissed Kausi on the cheek, and said with a smile: "Yes, I see countless unknowns and mysteries in you, and this is what attracts me to you."

"Come on, I'm not a tool for you to use to find excitement!" Kausi patted Carrie's little head and motioned for her to roll into the tent to sleep. Then he stood up and planned to take a walk nearby. .

The night falls, and the deep darkness makes people have the urge to blend into the darkness.

The wind has picked up, but the cemetery seems even quieter. Owls cry from time to time in the dark night. The sounds of "coo... coo... coo..." are mixed in the breeze, like a sad woman crying, sadly. It was miserable and horrifying.

Kaus walked slowly, enjoying the silence. This allowed him to better recall everything that had happened since he time traveled. After getting Hammer Industries, he once thought that he had lost his goal and planned to spend his life lying down.

Fortunately, he has the ever-tireless Tony Stark by his side. To a certain extent, Iron Man's strong thirst for knowledge drives Cauvus to participate in major events again and again. Including this alien conquest plan, the hive is not a problem, and the harsh environment is not a problem. But if we can really build a powerful space fleet before Thanos arrives, I believe it will be a very interesting thing.

There was a rustling sound not far away, and Kausi was slightly startled, but he saw a little light like a bean floating slowly over in the dark night.

It's the tombkeeper!
