"Are you not afraid of me?"

Tangqi's reaction obviously confused the old woman.

This is very different from the scenes that have happened many times in the past. The young man in front of him doesn't look like he was stunned. He didn't cry, pee his pants, or be incoherent with fear. He just looked at himself with pity and sympathy.

Huh?

The old woman's rotten eyes suddenly turned a few times, and her eyes completely focused on Tang Qi. The stench and terrible black gas were released at the same time. A pair of thin claw like palms grabbed Tang Qi's arms and shouted, "who are you?"

Boom!

With sympathy, the old woman was still bounced off by the "Guardian curse" that suddenly appeared on Tang Qi. She had mutated into an old woman like a "zombie" and flew straight upside down.

But it didn't affect her. After hearing what Tang Qi said next, she flew back very excited.

"Charlotte, my guide, my source of guilt, my sin... Sorry, my love, my life has been dedicated to elria. If I could meet you earlier, ah no, all this is fate... - Ralph."

The familiar tone of voice made the old woman understand something in an instant.

With both hands and feet, she climbed up the dome from the wall, and then fell in front of Tang Qi with a bang. In the face of the "Guardian curse", she no longer stretched out her hand, stood excitedly, and the light of expectation and hope flashed in her rotten eyes.

The old woman said eagerly, "you know Ralph, don't you? Where is he? Is he coming? I want to see him. Come on, take me to him."

Because of the old woman's excitement, everything in the side hall was accelerating to decay, and the terrible black gas overflowed from her body, which made Tang Qi surprised that the pollution and radiation spread around here.

In the originally quiet castle, especially in the rear, there were some terrible movements, like the roar of demons, the wailing of ghosts and chaotic nonsense.

Seeing this change, Tang Qi frowned and had to swallow his words.

He wanted to tell Charlotte that Ralph was dead.

But almost predictably, once the cruel truth is told, Charlotte, who has become "weird" in front of her, will directly explode. Her breath is completely integrated with the castle. It can be said that she is the core of this "polluted land".

In Tang Qi's perception, there are a lot of strange things behind the castle. From the smell, many are stronger than Charlotte.

But they are all attracted guests.

Once Charlotte rioted, they had to be driven.

Once again, Tang Qi sighed from the bottom of his heart: scum man, it's a sin.

The reason why the scene in front of us appears is naturally related to Ralph.

"When Ralph passed Berkshire, he was invited by the host couple of the fog Castle because of his handsome and demeanor and the aura of graduates from Cartier University. That year, Charlotte was just 15 years old. They met because of a moving song and fell in love soon."

"Although there is some age difference between the two, Ralph did have an extraordinary charm when he was young. Charlotte's parents acquiesced in their communication until a small adventure happened. Charlotte and Ralph mistakenly entered a painting."

"That's an entrance to Deborah."

"So this is an adventure story that likes the new and hates the old."

From the story of Leia, in her childhood, this is a typical delusional story from her crazy father.

But at this time, the scene in front of me makes the story particularly true.

"When Ralph met Charlotte, the spirit tide did not return, just like the unlucky witch who had to choose to smuggle. The entrance here is very hidden and ordinary people know that they can't enter unless they are selected like Ralph."

During the movement, Tang Qi felt the increasingly violent atmosphere in front of him and the shaking castle. Those strange armies in the rear seemed to surge here because of Charlotte's emotional changes.

In the past, those male caregivers who came for "inheritance" were afraid to die because of this. The difference is probably that they died because they angered Charlotte on the first day, or they died because they angered Charlotte when they ran away after holding back for a few days.

Once Charlotte was a sweet and kind girl.

Now she is a "weird" controlled by obsession.

The "entrance" also changed because of her obsession, attracted a large number of strange and evil spirits, and polluted it into a purgatory like place.

"It's time to be free."

When the idea came to mind, Tang Qi's body suddenly began to change.

A record of five "red", plus "phantom curse" superposition.

In the brilliant brilliance, Charlotte's rotten eyes showed a picture she couldn't believe:

A young figure that constantly appeared in her dream stood in front of her.

This is a young man wearing a jacket, a white shirt, a soft, fluffy short brown black hair, handsome and full of vitality. He also carries an old suitcase that seems to have been popular decades ago.

He smiled brightly at her, just like the first sight in the warm sunny afternoon decades ago.

Surrounded by the golden flame, Charlotte fell into a dull, with a crazy smile. The magic of the furnace was burning her body bit by bit, but she didn't feel it. Her thin claws held a picture frame with a withered and yellow picture inside.

Charlotte and Ralph, the only group photo of the two, a 15-year-old girl, tiptoe, embracing the handsome young man.

Tangqi sighed past her and walked behind the castle.

Just turned the side hall and stepped into a dark and wide passage. Dozens of "weird" heads crowded together. They were excited by the smell of new humans. Among them were ghosts, demons, fallen humans, or frightening unidentified extraordinary creatures.

Behind them, at the end, there is a wall.

There is a picture hanging on the wall. According to Leia's description or Ralph's narration, it looks like a strange but beautiful fantasy world, which is very illusory, like a carefree fairy tale world.

But now, in the picture, there is only one woman.

Charlotte, or completely twisted Charlotte, her body and limbs have been twisted and rotten, a head has become huge, her eyes are full of obsession, her mouth is wide open, and there is a familiar figure standing inside.

Ralph, Ralph with a brilliant smile.

"Hoo"

The picture frame shows the flame without warning.

Charlotte, who was already twisted, began to melt. Ralph, who stood in her mouth, suddenly changed from laughing to howling. His body melted bit by bit, turned into red blood, dripping down, flowing into a stream, flowing into Charlotte's mouth.

Charlotte's open mouth seemed to close gradually.

Seeing this scene, Tang Qi took a breath, and the surging furnace magic in his body vented unhindered. In an instant, a furnace like figure crashed into the channel, and dozens of monsters and dozens of fuel could not hinder his progress for even a second.

The golden light spot flew with the black ashes, and a human figure jumped up. When touching the strange painting, it fell into the water like a "stone". When the ripples came out, he was completely submerged in the water.

The picture frame was burned, the picture scroll inside was cocked up, and everything was melting.

Red blood, terrible black, twisted obsession... All melted away in the golden flame.
