Chapter 545 Contradictions(2/2)
Hearing Ling Nu's voice, Duanmu Huai looked intently, and then he saw something remaining behind the black stain.
Looks like...a pendant?
Duanmu Huai reached out and picked up the pendant. It was an ancient-looking metal pendant with a wolf head pattern carved on it.
Hmm... In other words, is this a wolf?
“——————————!”
However, just as Duanmu Huai picked up the pendant, his eyes suddenly went dark.
The next moment, the surrounding scenery suddenly changed.
In the dark room, an old man was sitting on a chair. He was staring ahead, as if staring at someone, and showed a strange smile.
"This is the fate of your family. If you want to change everything, you must make sacrifices."
"sacrifice?"
"Yes, you should understand what exactly we need."
Immediately afterwards, the screen turned again.
Under the cold moonlight, in the endless wilderness, the howls of hounds were heard one after another, and a ragged girl was running desperately in front. Duanmu Huai's perspective seemed to be higher, as if he was riding a horse.
, desperately chasing the girl in front of him.
Then, a voice sounded.
"Is it true that as long as we kill that woman, the curse of the Baskerville family will be lifted?"
"Yes, as long as you kill her, the curse of the Baskerville family will be lifted, and you will restore the glory of the family!"
Another voice sounded, but it didn't seem to be one voice, but voices coming from all directions.
Get her!
Kill her!
"Someone" began to gallop forward desperately, slapping his riding whip, gradually closing the distance with the girl in front of him - but soon, Duanmu Huai discovered that something seemed wrong.
Logically speaking, it is absolutely impossible for a person to outrun a galloping horse, let alone a hound chasing her. Although the girl ran away in a very embarrassed manner, she was actually able to keep running for a long distance in front of the galloping horse and hound.
The gesture lasted so long. If you think about it carefully, there are many parts of the legend that are very vague even if you think about it.
For example, how did an ordinary girl escape from the wilderness, and a group of people rode horses and set off hounds without catching her? Even if the girl left early, it would not be difficult to catch up with her.
An ordinary person would just feel pity for the girl being chased just by seeing this scene. But as a judge, Duanmu Huai has already begun to be more vigilant at this moment - unfortunately this is a thing of the past, but
For now, he would never think that the girl was a poor innocent girl. When things go wrong, there must be a demon. For such a mortal who goes beyond common sense, the judge would take action immediately.
Sure enough, as if to verify Duanmuhuai's conjecture, the girl being chased in front suddenly leaned forward, then landed on her hands, and the next moment she was galloping across the wilderness with limbs like a beast. Seeing this scene
, "someone" seemed to be shocked, but soon Duanmuhuai saw a gun appear in his field of vision, aimed at the woman in front of him and pulled the trigger.
"boom!!!!"
Gunfire rang out.
However, at the same time, the girl on all fours jumped suddenly, and then disappeared. This sudden scene also made "someone" a little surprised. He held the gun and looked around, but nothing happened.
None of them saw it. However, at this moment, suddenly, with a neighing, the horse that "someone" was riding fell to the ground instantly, and "someone" also fell from the horse, heavily.
Fall to the ground.
"call-----!!!"
"Someone" fell heavily to the ground. Before he could get up, a face suddenly appeared in front of him. It was a twisted, ferocious face that looked more like a beast than a human.
"——————!"
Then, the illusion disappeared.
The scene in front of him returned to normal again. Duanmu Huai frowned and looked at the necklace in front of him.
This was the third time that this inexplicable ability of his had been activated. Sure enough, just as he thought, it seemed that the ancestor of the Baskerville family encountered something unusual.
But.........Now that this demon dog has been killed by me, it should be fine, right?
Or is there trouble still to come?
"Mr. Duanmu, are you okay?"
When Duanmuhuai came back to his senses, Mary's voice came to her ears. She was grabbing Duanmuhuai's clothes in fear and looking at his chest.
"Huh? Do I look like something's wrong?"
"Because of the clothes..."
"oh."
Sensing Mary's gaze, Duanmu Huai lowered his head and found that his chest had been torn out by the monster with several cracks. From Mary's point of view, it might be a very dangerous thing.
"It's okay, I just tore my clothes."
Just kidding, with Duanmu Huai's physique, he can take a bath with liquid nitrogen. It would be too crazy for a monster that comes from nowhere to break through his defenses.
"call……………"
Hearing Duanmuhuai's answer, Mary breathed a sigh of relief, then she turned her head and looked at the dark stain on the ground.
"Does this mean it's over?"
"Who knows, let's take a look at the situation first."
Duanmuhuai fiddled with the pendant in his hand and said, he always felt that this matter was not that simple, and if the scene he saw before was true, it would be completely contrary to the legend of the Baskerville family——
-At least the girl who was captured was definitely not an innocent person, and the reason why the Baskerville family captured her was definitely not just for pleasure.
Maybe we can get more clues from this pendant?
All in all, let’s try it first and then talk about it.
