Chapter 167 Born Mothman
In the meaningless buzzing of madness, the young man seemed to be looking at the gentleman with a gentle smile in front of him. The tall and strong body suddenly began to twist and deform - the eight teeth exposed in the smile, They were falling off one by one, replaced by curved and sharp fangs like animal teeth, piercing ferociously from the gums, and the mouth was full of blood.
There are even two scimitar-like serrated fangs protruding forward from under the ears, as if the huge upper jaws of a stag beetle are constantly scissoring and making strange clicking sounds.
The black and white eyes were bulging and bulging, as if a pair of big hands were exerting force in the opponent's head to push the pupils out of the eye sockets. They were as thick as the dead fish floating along the coast. The white eyes look even more disgusting, weird, and deformed!
And the depths of the pair of dark pupils also began to shine with a green gleam. The eerie green light shone more and more intensely, and finally exploded with a loud sound, and the two deep and dark eye holes Among them, two jade stones that looked like they were carefully carved by top gem craftsmen popped out!
At the same time, there were also pieces of blue-black fine scales with a metallic luster and ferocious gray-white bone spurs, which were gradually tearing through the gentleman's skin and slowly stabbing out. They were as densely packed as mussels rooted on the surface of the reef. At a glance, it felt like Extremely scary!
Sebastian took two steps back unconsciously in panic, and then the illusion-like illusion disappeared. In front of him was still the gentleman with a friendly smile, and the three companions behind him.
"This person... is very dangerous!!!"
This alarm-like thought appeared in Sebastian's mind very suddenly. Although it was just an intuition without any reason, at this moment he believed the result from the bottom of his heart, so his body was trembling uncontrollably at this moment. , but it's not just fear and trembling, but also mixed with some complex emotions... is it excitement? Or joy? Still excited?
But why do I have a warm feeling like meeting a long-lost family member? !
Sebastian thought so, and he suddenly felt an indescribable itching feeling that seemed to be growing between his skin and flesh, the gap between blood and bone? !
It was not a strange feeling that could be alleviated by simply scratching, but the feeling of being impatient to get rid of some useless things, like a whale parasitized by barnacles, something that obscures the essence and hinders the true heart is covered in one's body. Physically and mentally... At this moment, he couldn't help but want to stretch out ten fingers, pierce deeply into his skull, peel off all the unnecessary unnecessary things that hinder his thinking and perception, and restore his original appearance. ! ! !
But when Susan, who was originally smiling, saw this group of outsiders, her amiable expression suddenly turned cold. She must have had bad intentions when she took Sebastian's hand and tried to drag him away from this group. Outsiders, pull them into your own courtyard.
"Little Sebastian, come in quickly, don't talk to these foreigners, they are not good people!"
This cry of concern could not completely wake up Sebastian, who was still immersed in strange emotions. He was dragged back two steps by Ms. Susan, and he finally woke up after his body shook.
The young man looked at the gentleman in front of him who was not angry at all when hearing Ms. Susan's xenophobic insults. He only felt that the man must have experienced many extraordinary things to be so calm, so relaxed, so... dangerous!
But he also had a strong interest in this person. From such an experienced foreigner, he would definitely be able to gain a lot of things about the outside world - he has been living in this dilapidated town by the sea since he became conscious. .
Sebastian's stern grandfather never allowed Sebastian to leave the three-mile radius of the town. Even when he was rebellious, he tried to walk across mountains and rivers carrying a bag of bread and planned to leave along the coastline in the middle of the night, but he didn't get very far. , for some reason he learned of his intention to leave and tracked his grandfather to take him back to his old house... Even if he sneaked into the moving carriage, he would be pulled off the carriage by his grandfather on the way out.
It seems that every plant, tree, brick and stone in and around the town is under the eyes and ears of grandfather. Even though this old man usually hides in the top room of the old house, whenever his grandson wants to leave, he always Being able to get the news in advance and bundle the rebellious Sebastian back home.
But in his heart, the young man always harbored longing and yearning for the outside world. The collection of books in the old house, the townspeople who occasionally returned from the outside world and moved away with their families, and the extremely rare tourists who broke in for unknown reasons - these were the only ways he could understand the outside world.
Unfortunately, Sebastian has grown up by the sea since he was a child. He falls asleep looking at the endless ocean every night, and his mind is as boundless as the vast ocean - but his body is restricted. This backward town of Ilkesmouth has never seen the vast world with its own eyes.
At this moment, the young man looked face to face with this strange gentleman. He seemed to see those faceted emerald eyes shining with fluorescent green light again. He only felt that some kind of power was rising in his heart, as if there was something. A voice echoed in my mind, which was my cry for freedom and pursuit of freedom!
The closing poem of "The Tempest" suddenly echoed in his mind.
"Please don't lock me up in this lonely desert island forever!"
"Please release the chains on my soul,"
"I rely on your kind and diligent applause;"
"Please blow a gentle breeze for me,"
"So that our ships can fill their sails together."
Sebastian seemed to have a premonition, which was as unreasonable as the illusion he had just had in a trance, but he was willing to believe in his purest and most instinctive thoughts from the bottom of his heart-the gentleman in front of him might be able to take me away from this decadent town! ! !
He suddenly broke free from Ms. Susan's pull, stepped forward with confidence, and held back the gentleman who turned around and wanted to leave.
"Hey sir, I know where the Gaowei Hotel is. It is my grandfather's property. I can take you there."
"Oh, that's great."
The gentleman who turned around still had a faint smile on his face, and he stretched out his calloused palm as if he wanted to shake hands with the young man in front of him in a friendly manner.
Sebastian also held the gentleman's hand expectantly, "I'm Sebastian, what's your name, sir?"
"John Cavill, just call me John."
"Hello, Mr. John." Sebastian held Mr. John's hand heavily, it was really a strong hand.
He pointed to the old house on the crumbling cliff near the town, "Please go this way, my house is on that cliff."
"Okay, thank you."
John Watson smiled and retracted his palm, the moth in his skull woke up after a long time, and began to flutter slightly and whisper in his mind.
"Oh, there are still little moths born in the awake world, not eaten by their parents!"
Today is a time of love, even if you are a member of the church, you have to accompany your lover to the streets and alleys that present strange phenomena under the moonlight.
