The Whispering Verses Chapter 1727: “Door in a Bottle”
"The second memory that followed was that after being touched by Durut Giles, Rusty Edwards followed him off the island."
The nun continued, and Shade asked:
"Did you see the whole process of escaping from the island?"
She nodded:
"Yes, even though she was just a child, she had great power during her lifetime. She instinctively used her power to repel the enemies from another space on the island and the water ghosts under the water."
Priest August thought for a moment and agreed:
"Yes, I can also see that her soul power is very powerful. Generally speaking, a divided soul will be extremely weak, so we have encountered an unusual situation."
"The third memory was that she was strangled to death by her father. Because of the damage to her soul, I could not get a glimpse of the thirteen-ring fortune teller. Rust Edwards' memory of him has A mixture of fear, sadness and reluctance... In that memory, I heard Mohu's voice - my daughter, when we meet next time, you will understand how much I love you. ”
Sister Devlin's tone was quite calm, but the corners of Shade's mouth twitched a few times, not knowing what to say.
Priest August, who is still the oldest and has encountered the most troubles, commented:
"Everything we think about now is our own guess. When we find out the whole story, we will know what is going on... Of course, I am more inclined to the one with thirteen rings. The fortune teller is a lunatic."
"The fourth memory is a memory from her lifetime, a **** door. She has a particularly clear memory of that door, which is at the end of a long and narrow underground corridor."
"Does the door have any characteristics?"
Xia De asked, the nun nodded:
"There are many keyholes on the door, 13 in total. The size and shape of all keyholes are exactly the same."
Xia De frowned deeply:
"What is the last memory, the earliest memory?"
"The memory of birth, yes, she has the memory of her own birth."
"She was born naturally?"
"Yes, that's for sure. A man whose face couldn't be seen clearly picked her up and soaked her in the blood-red liquid. Because it was a memory from the beginning of life, it was deeply imprinted on her. The depth of the soul, so even if the soul is divided, the memory is still very clear. She opened her eyes in the liquid, and heard the blessing she received after her birth in the blood-red world-"
The nun paused and repeated:
"Grow up quickly and let the roots of the family sprout; be sensible quickly and help me realize the idea that no one believes in; walk quickly, the time has begun to count down; may the endless space bless you, my dear daughter, I wish..."
She paused again, but this time it was not to let Shade and Priest August listen carefully. The nun lowered her voice slightly:
"May the 'Door in a Bottle' bless you, my dear Rust."
"The door in the bottle? I only know the 'cat in the bottle'."
Shad was a little puzzled, while Priest August showed a surprised look:
"That evil thing that was sealed by God in the Second Era is actually in Green Lake?"
The nun nodded slightly:
"I don't know much about this. The sect's library only records very basic information. Please introduce it."
"Shad, similar to the evil thing in Pantanal you mentioned before, the 'Door in the Bottle' is a very ancient sealed ancient evil thing. If we say, the evil thing in Pantanal corresponds to is 'tree', 'corrupt nature' and 'out of control life', then this 'door in a bottle' corresponds to 'space', 'truth' and 'origin'."
This was the first time that Shade saw a priest showing such a fearful expression:
"According to rumors, it was the ancient **** who sealed it before he left. Very, very old murals once depicted its image, which was a black door contained in a glass bottle."
"The black one, isn't it the **** door with thirteen keyholes that Sister Devlin just mentioned?"
Xia De confirmed, the priest nodded affirmatively:
"It is absolutely black, and there is no keyhole on it. According to legend, the only pattern on the door in the bottle is a black spiral."
This reminded Shade of the Unified One pendants that appeared in the rumors of "Unified Ones" in the Green Lake area. He got a lot of them from Bad-Eye Barry.
"Since the door in the bottle is a door, what is behind the door?"
"Oh, Shade, why do you think I would know?"
The priest shook his head, but Sister Devlin said:
"The sect's information says that the door must not be opened. Behind the door is the end of all things, the end of space, and the answer to the origin of the world. Even if the door is not opened, the intelligent life around it can always I hear whispers about the origin of space and the truth of all things all the time. Maybe its size is small, maybe its direct combat effectiveness is not strong, but it is something more terrifying than the evil thing in Pantanal."
This sounds more and more terrifying. Fortunately, no matter how powerful the evil creature is, it is no match for the gods. This is also one of the rules of the world.
"But you don't have to worry too much, that thing doesn't pose much of a threat to you. Since the ancient gods have sealed that thing, even with the Thirteen Rings of Soothsayers, it's impossible for it to return to its heyday."
The priest thought more:
"In its current state, there is a high probability that it will not be as strong as the evil thing in Pantanal, nor will it be as strong as Qiao Yin Barton who stood on the River Styx to fight you in real death. You What needs to be worried about now is what the Thirteen Rings fortune tellers will do with it."
The three of them discussed the divided soul for a long time. Of course, it was mainly Priest August and Shade who were talking. However, priests and nuns have quite the same view. Once the soul is divided, it will be very difficult to repair it. But as long as that soul is on the Central Island, the prophecy of the bloodline will definitely come true.
In other words, Rust Edwards, the second-generation eldest daughter of the Edwards family, will definitely return to the place that scares her one day.
Shad originally planned to stay with Priest August and Sister Devlin for dinner, but the priest had to discuss matters with Bishop Owen at noon, so he left in a hurry at half past ten. Sister Devlin was not in a hurry to leave. She wanted to meet Yin Luna and talk about what was going to happen in Green Lake, so Shade found Yin Luna again and gave the [Eternal Youth Leaf] to her on the carriage. she.
When the nun and Yin Luna finished talking about the matter, the time really came to noon. Although Yin Luna wanted to stay for dinner, she had to attend a church luncheon at noon, so she could only leave with regret.
Shade intended to ask Sister Devlin to do another favor, so he asked the nun to wait for a while before leaving. He stood up and walked Yin Luna downstairs. Knowing that Sha De was not a cat who went out, he did not follow him. He stood on the sofa and looked at the nun who stood up and looked up at the "Honorary Doctorate of History" certificate hanging on the wall. .
The nun "read" the certificate and then looked down at the cat. Little Mia's big amber eyes blinked curiously a few times, while Sister Devlin remained expressionless.
"The sun."
She suddenly spoke softly, but no one could hear her voice. At this moment, there was a noise in the bedroom that had been quiet all morning. Sister Devlin heard the sound of slippers, and then footsteps approached the door. Dorothy, who was fascinated by the lake, opened the door:
"Shad, is Priest August gone? I thought I heard the priest's voice just now."
She must have fallen asleep in the lake. The priest left an hour ago.
Dorothy's voice echoed in the home, and the blond female writer who woke up also saw the lady standing in the living room at this time.
Gray dress, black belt, veil has been taken off, so the face is covered with a white cloth band covering the eyes. The nun's thick gray-black hair is braided together and hangs down in front of her left shoulder. Her left and right hands were clasped together and hung naturally in front of her body, and she raised her head to "look" at Dorothy. Because there was no restraint on the sides of the eye patch, her long gray-black hair swayed as she nodded and said hello.
Dorothy was shocked by the unique temperament of the lady in front of her. This was the first time she saw Sister Devlin, and she had never seen anyone with such a unique temperament. Then he looked at the cat standing on the coffee table. Seeing that it didn't show any abnormality, he knew that this was also Sha De's guest.
"Sorry."
She apologized softly and quickly closed the bedroom door. Even after hearing the sound of Shade going up the stairs, he didn't open the door again.
"Do you see anything?"
After Shade returned upstairs to join Sister Devlin, he sent her back to Fort Midhill. After walking out of the abandoned tower in the mountain, the two of them looked side by side at the leafy forest of Xikal Mountain in the spring morning, and Xia De suddenly asked.
The nun shook her head slightly:
"If the blonde girl just now is the Dorothy Louisa you mentioned, I'm sorry, but I didn't find anything special about her soul. I... accessed some of her memories. ”
This is inevitable. Since Sister Devlin wants to carefully observe Dorothy's soul, it is impossible to completely block all memories.
"Most of her most impressive memories are related to Lesia Cavendish and you. The most profound memory in her life was last year... when you took her and Lesia for the first time.・The night we met Cavendish."
Shad's face turned red. Of course he knew what happened that night, and he very much hoped that Sister Devlin only saw what happened shortly after they returned home.
The nun did not show any abnormality:
"Although her soul is not contaminated by other powers, I can feel that her soul is great."
"What does great...mean?"
Shadow didn’t quite understand. Sister Devlin looked up at the sky covered by the shadows of the trees, and raised her right hand with burn marks. The skin on her hand was very white, and the burn marks looked like It is a natural crack on high-end porcelain. The fiery red bird circled above them twice, and then landed on the index finger of the nun's right hand.
