The Whispering Verses Chapter 2635: Dream of the Moon Dance Festival
Chapter 2634 Dream of the Moon Dance Festival
Fortunately, Shade never thought about taking the church’s job:
"As long as your mother is fine, the situation was very chaotic and it was difficult for me to take care of her during the final battle."
Thinking of the many rumors about the Battle of Moon Bay, the strange celestial phenomena that repeatedly switched between day and night that day, and the terrifying scenes of the rumored Battle of the Five Gods, Eric Fulan forced a smile:
"Are Megan and Aunt Audrey okay too?"
"It's okay, but they have been busy with other things recently and have not followed me to Vista City, but they may come after a while. I won't say anything about the lady sitting next to me."
Any further talk would involve Miss Winslet, and Shade didn't want to expose her secret.
Eric Foulen also wisely avoided this topic and asked instead:
"Do you have anything to do when you come to the local area? Do you need our help?"
"I don't need help at the moment. Do you know the young yellow-haired second lieutenant sitting in the fifth row behind you?"
Although he didn’t pay special attention to it, he was a ring warlock after all, and he had been promoted to the sixth ring after the Green Lake incident. Eric Foran recalled it and nodded:
"Meet, York Bronte. His father, Baron Bronte, served as a staff officer in the First Army Corps. Although his status was not particularly high, he was very popular because of his generous spending.
The Bronte family is also a traditional aristocrat from Ximu Town, sorry, from Vista City. York Brontë, the second son of the family, grew up in Willendale rather than in the city of Vista, and had been arranged by the baron to enter the army only last year. ”
"He is also from Ximu Town. How is his reputation?"
Shad asked curiously again, and Eric Fulan thought about it again:
"In the eyes of outsiders, he probably has a bright future. Although the title of the family is destined to be passed on to his eldest brother, his development in the army will not be hindered by his father's arrangements. This man is extremely generous, or not very generous. Cares about money, is a frequent visitor to Rhodes Casino, and has heard about his private life."
After speaking, he shook his head:
"Of course, this is just a rumor. Charles and I have no interaction with him, we just heard friends talk about him. What, is there something wrong with this person?"
"No, I'm just curious. But there may be something wrong with Ximu Town."
Eric Folan blinked and moved closer to Shad:
"This question refers to"
"If you two brothers are here just for the concert, you'd better leave immediately. Listen to me, if you two don't want to be involved in a big incident like Green Lake and Moon Bay, run as fast as possible ."
The aristocratic young man from Willondale took a deep breath, thinking that he might as well leave with his younger brother now.
The two did not talk in the corridor for too long, and went back before the solo "Starry Sky Aria" ended. It seems that this should be the last time the Fulen brothers and Shade meet this autumn. They know how serious Shade's description is.
Miss Denister didn’t ask what Shade had done. She waited until the intermission and people started talking before saying:
"It's hard to finish one thing. Let's go out and listen to the concert together. Don't be busy with other things."
Shad stood up from the comfortable seat:
"Just catching up with relatives."
Hearing the word "relatives", Miss Winslet immediately looked at them, but the red-haired girl shook her finger and said:
"I've seen your background check. Where are your relatives from?"
Then I thought of the beautiful girls around Shade, and then I raised my eyebrows:
"I understand, if that's the case, you do have a lot of relatives."
Then she deliberately ended the topic without explaining to the witch beside her what she had said.
For twenty minutes between concerts Shade did nothing else, not even leaving his seat. However, he did talk about the card [Carsonlik Southern Folklore and Moon Dance Festival] with Miss Bell, and then talked about the origin of that card:
"Last summer I received a commission from Mrs. Greta Watson. She found the body of her husband who had been missing for thirty years behind a large hole in her basement"
He told the story of an old lady who drank and killed her cheating husband, while her brother took the initiative to destroy the evidence and surrendered to the police in order to cover up his sister's crime. When the bones were discovered behind the basement wall many years later, even his brother who had been released from prison had been dead for ten years.
At the funeral where the thirty-year-old skeleton was buried last summer, Shade saw the souls of his "husband" Mr. Watson and his "brother" Mr. Mason. After attending the funeral with them, And they played the final game of Rhodes under the trees in the cemetery on that rainy afternoon.
"Soul's Blessing allows me to draw this card in any situation, but unfortunately it only lasts for one year and is now invalid."
He handed the cards to Miss Bell. The young brunette standing on the red carpet in the aisle looked very excited:
"Sure enough, just like everyone said, every card of a legendary player is also a legend!"
??????55.??????
"This story is very familiar. Is it adapted into the story of Miss Louisa?"
Miss Winslet, who was also standing next to Shade's chair and talking, asked, Shade nodded:
"Yes, at the beginning of the detective story collection. But compared to the sentimental and regretful story in the rain that I experienced myself, her adapted story has a more suspenseful and thrilling feel.
After all, detective novels require detectives to discover the truth themselves, rather than asking ghosts directly. ”
"That Miss Louisa is lucky. Speaking of which, Miss Louisa is yours"
"I will not disclose other people's privacy."
Xia De shook his head and refused, and the witch didn't care. She guessed that it was definitely not a serious relationship, but she also thought about whether Carina would discipline this handsome man. She knew how attractive he was.
After the break, the performance continued. The second half started with the dance song "Silver Fantasia." For some reason, Shade felt tired again and quietly yawned.
Because it was a performance dance, the lights were turned off in the audience this time. The dim light made him feel sleepy again.
As the dancers came on stage one after another, the red-haired girl beside him noticed that Shade's head lowered slightly and his eyes closed.
This reminded her of those students who stayed up late at night reading novels and failed to get the magic potion to wake them up before class the next day, resulting in being drowsy in the morning class. But Shade is different from the naughty young people in the academy. Of course, he will not be punished to copy books or clean the library.
She originally wanted to wake him up again, but thinking about how he had been running around and accompanying them to the concert during what was supposed to be their rest time at night, she pursed her lips and showed a somewhat pitiful expression:
"Sleep and have a sweet dream."
With the music of the classical-style "Silver Fantasia", Shade finally fell into a dream in his tiredness and completely severed his connection with the real world.
All the strange things since tonight disappeared without a trace as he closed his eyes. Shade, whose mind was in chaos, felt as if he was being pulled towards an unknown and distant place.
He soon realized that he was dreaming, but had no intention of breaking away from this wonderful feeling.
So when my feet stepped on the earth, the endless wilderness under the vast sea of stars in my dream appeared again. Standing on the ridge of the field and looking at the silver moon in the distance, Xia De was in a daze because music sounded in his dream.
It is not the "Silver Fantasia" in the real world or the later "Autumn Rhapsody", but an ancient, desolate but sacred dance music.
He retracted his gaze from the silver moon and moved forward in the wilderness following the sound of music. It was not that he had never explored this dreamland in the past, but it was only when the "Vampire God" entered his dream that he encountered a different scenery.
This time, after pursuing the sound of music, maybe it was just a few minutes, or maybe it took a long time, until a faint light of fire appeared in the wilderness under the sea of stars. What Shade saw as he walked over was tens of thousands of people in long robes, dancing under the moonlight around the huge bonfire.
An open-air sacrificial site suddenly appeared in the wilderness under the moonlit night. It was the same ancient building as the "Dragon Feast Sacrificial Site", but it was more complete, as if Shade had returned to the original era.
All the runes, statues, stone carvings and steps and pillars of the sacrificial site were carved out of silver-white stone. The silver flames burning on the huge altar in the center, together with the silver moon, attracted those who worshiped and danced towards the moon. Also dyed silvery white.
Shad found that he had unknowingly reached the outskirts of the majestic sacrificial site. Then at some point, people dancing, kneeling and praying made way for him to lead to the center of the sacrificial site. .
No one paid any attention to Shade. When Shade moved toward the center of the majestic sacrificial site, no one bumped into or looked at him.
At this moment, the miraculous elements are simply rising and falling with the ancient dance music. The runes that light up in the sacrificial site are gradually constructing the elements and spirits generated in this grand sacrificial ritual into a part of a larger ceremony. .
Going past the crowd, climbing the steps, past the luminous stone pillars, and across the edge of the shadow that danced due to the swaying of the silver fire, there were only a few people in the center of the sacrificial site.
But before Shade could identify the ancient poems written completely on the stone slab under his feet, and before Shade could feel the temperature of the strange silver flames, there were six people dressed in cool clothes and wearing silver jewelry all over their bodies. Girls gathered around him.
They laughed and touched Shade, holding Shade's hand and wanting to dance with Shade to the ritual dance music. But Shade politely refused them out of instinct, so the girls retreated with regret.
He stood in front of the altar and looked up at the moon again. With the silver moon as the center, the deep starry sky seemed to form a halo-clad figure wearing a silver-blue hood.
He stared at this scene in a daze, while the silver fire burning on the huge altar in front of him suddenly exploded into the night sky.
