Zuo Dao Becomes a God Starting from American Horror

Chapter 5: Evil Witchcraft and Dirty Family
!!!

Louis' pupils constricted.

It was a skinny, hairy, and dirty man's hand!

At this moment, it was scratching on the ground.

In an instant, Louis's first impression of this land and scenes from various crime and horror films swirled in his mind.

It wasn't until the chain on his wrist collided with the ground that Louis finally felt relieved.

Being tied up, it’s good to be tied up!

Reason returns to its peak.

Approaching cautiously, I saw a middle-aged man with pale skin, a haggard face, and who seemed to be unable to even speak. He was lying on the ground with iron chains tied around his ankles and wrists.

He seemed to have sensed Louis's arrival. He raised his head, his eyes lit up, and said with difficulty, "Run away... don't... stay... here..."

He spoke haltingly, and it was obvious that his language function had deteriorated due to not speaking for a long time, coupled with the chains and pale skin.

You can tell at a glance that he is imprisoned.

After a brief hesitation, Louis decided to take a gamble and communicate with the other party. After all, this was a rare opportunity that must be seized.

Of course, he still didn't get too close.

Fortunately, Louis made the right bet.

During the stumbling communication with the other party, he learned that the other party was actually Emilia's son.

Yes, it’s my son.

There is certainly something wrong with a middle-aged woman having a middle-aged man as her son.

His mother Emilia was a descendant of a witch from a Portuguese witch tribe. Later, during America's colonial expansion in the 19th century, she followed a man to America, but was abandoned because of her old age and fading beauty.

After that, in order to maintain her youth, she resorted to an evil witchcraft that could suck the life out of young girls to restore her youth, but witchcraft had limitations, and only the descendants of witches could suck the life out of young girls.

But she was all alone here. Her tribe and relatives were far away in Portugal, and there were no other descendants of witches. Under such circumstances, she happened to give birth to twins.

This is where the evil begins.

Thanks to this witchcraft, she has lived from the 19th century to the present day and has maintained her youth and beauty. Moreover, with the help of witchcraft, she has earned a lot of money and lived a comfortable life.

Until more than ten years ago, this incident happened unexpectedly.

That year, she and her son... became pregnant again and gave birth to twins.

Not long after this, her son fell in love with a girl nearby. After discussion, they decided to elope, but before that, he wanted to steal his child away. He didn't want his child to suffer the same dirty future as him.

At this point, the man shed tears.

Hearing this, Louis already knew exactly who the son and husband in the story was.

Then, something unexpected happened.

The power of witchcraft was too strong. After he was discovered, his legs were broken and he was locked in the basement. The woman who eloped took away another child and her life or death was unknown.

Nuer is now the child who was left behind, and the son of the man in front of him.

"Nuel...how old is he..."

Looking at the hope in the man's eyes, Louis shook his head. He knew what the other party meant, but there was no point in deceiving himself. Looking at the scratches on the wall, he knew that the other party had a sense of time.

The man lowered his head, a sad smile on his face, "Hehe..."

Louis was in no mood to see the other party's miserable plight, and hurriedly asked for useful information.

Finally learned.

The older they get, the weaker their magical powers become.

Across from the secret room was a path leading outside, but it was locked and difficult for a child to open;

In addition to teleporting objects, Emilia's witchcraft can also greatly increase her speed and strength, but her physical strength remains unchanged. Finally, she loves her son very much, and even though he has betrayed her, she did not kill him.

After asking, Louis climbed the stairs and looked at the door with faint light coming in, and the big lock.

Looking at the big lock, Louis suddenly took out a piece of iron from his arms. It was the lock-picking tool he had specially found these days using the blood-gold hinge.

He decisively bit his little finger, smeared the blood on it, and inserted it into the lock. While silently praying for help from Master Lu Ban, he poked it back and forth a few times before stopping.

It will take another two days of poking and prodding before the lock can be opened.

I don't know if Lu Ban is useful in this foreign country...

Then Louis quickly returned to the hall.

At this time, the hall had been cleaned up and the children were sitting around quietly in a daze. The experiences of these days seemed to have worn away their former agility.

Emma walked among everyone, saying something with a friendly and lovely smile on her face, which seemed to inspire everyone. Some children obviously showed their closeness to her.

At this time, Louis returned without attracting attention. After looking at Emma, ​​he called Mary and the other two over.

"Is nothing wrong?"

"It's okay. The old witch has been in a bad mood recently. I wonder if it's because of what happened last night." Mary subconsciously touched her head, which seemed a little swollen.

It seems she was beaten again.

"By the way, why did the old witch kiss her son? And she drove us out. Is this what Sister Haley mentioned before, going to bed?" Mary asked curiously.

?

Damn, it’s an eyesore!
After a brief silence, Louis nodded.

Mary seemed to be thinking about something, but Haley next to her didn't pay any attention to it. She looked at Louis anxiously, and Louis nodded.

Soon after returning to the room, he told the three people about the secret room below, but did not reveal the blood-gold hinge. He only said that he was learning to pick the lock and it would take two or three days.

Got a surprise from three people.

……

In the following days, the opportunity never came, but Emma and everyone else got to know each other and became friends during their free time.

That day, everyone sat in the hall, staring blankly after laying out the red dance carpet.

But Louis vaguely heard shouting from the second floor.

“Oh, oh, oh!!”

Louis' mouth twitched. It seemed that the mother and son forgot to close the door. But, it was broad daylight, tsk.

Hailey, who was standing next to him, suddenly looked over and whispered, "They definitely don't have time to care about us now. This is an opportunity. What should we do?"

I really don't have time...

Louis muttered in his heart, then looked at Hailey, "Do you think they will let us leave?"

As he said this, he looked around at the children around him.

Hailey was speechless and finally sighed.

That’s right, with so many people, the target is big, so it’s unrealistic to sneak away.

Emma smiled and said, "Of course."

She came to the crowd and spoke with a serious expression.

The expressions of those children who originally looked alert and resistant gradually became half-believing and half-doubting. When they heard the sound from the second floor, everyone's expression became surprised with a hint of panic.

Their eyes uncontrollably looked towards the door.
