Chatty Hollywood

Chapter 31: Kingdom of Heaven

"Although Hong Xiuquan used the name of the Western Heavenly Father back then, he used out-and-out local sorcery!"

When the old ghost taught Charlotte, he specially explained the rumors about the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom to him.

"Although it is impossible to record in the official history, when they rebelled from GX Jintian back then, they did use an evil thing that may still exist in the southwest region, the mandrill—"

"Mandrills, although they are called mountain spirits, are actually mountain gods. As remnants of the prehistoric times, they possess extraordinary powers, but unfortunately they are ugly. After humans left the primitive era of slash-and-burn farming, they gradually stopped offering sacrifices to them. The fear and desire of the human heart, they also naturally descended from the altar, became mountain spirits and wild monsters, and finally disappeared gradually..."

While recalling the teachings of the old ghost, Charlotte talked to the mysterious man with yellow eyes,

"It is said that Hong Xiuquan found a surviving mandrill among the 100,000 mountains at the junction of GXYNSC. He used the name of God to ask the believers who were deceived by him to sacrifice to the mandrill to revive the lost power of the mountain god. With the destruction of the early days of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, it is a pity..."

Having said that, Charlotte paused,

"I always thought it was just a rumor, but now it seems that it is probably true."

"You're right!"

The mysterious man with yellow eyes admitted it quite simply,

"The Heavenly Kingdom did use the power of the mandrill when the incident happened back then, but unfortunately, everything was lost in the civil strife, otherwise it wouldn't have been—"

"Lost? Was it stolen?"

Charlotte interrupted the other party very simply,

"Not to mention anything else, isn't what you're using now the Ghost Tiger among the mandrills?"

"Huh!? Did you see it? You are a young foreign devil, but you know a lot!"

The mysterious man with yellow eyes seemed a little surprised, but Charlotte didn't take it seriously.

"Since I already know that you are a descendant of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and you have admitted that you used mandrills back then, and look at the many ghosts outside, if I haven't realized that they are actually your ghosts, then my spell It’s really a waste of time!”

"Well, sorry, can I ask, what's the situation now?"

Charlize listened for a long time, and finally couldn't help making a sound.

——No way, both the yellow-eyed mysterious man and Charlotte just now spoke Chinese, and the blonde girl stayed in RB for a while when she was a model at most, and she is still a hundred thousand away from being able to understand their conversation Eight thousand miles!

"It's okay, you can explain to this woman first! The night is still long, I'm not in a hurry."

Although the mysterious man with yellow eyes has been speaking Chinese, he also seems to understand English. I don't know if he was too confident, but after hearing Charlize's question, he simply paused and asked Charlotte to explain to the girl——

"...In other words, this guy should be a monster left over from that heaven 150 or 60 years ago!? But what are you talking about?"

After Charlotte repeated the previous conversation to Charlize in English, the girl probably understood the current situation. Although she didn't understand why the other party suddenly started chatting with them, judging from Charlotte's meaning, this guy was obviously not It's so annoying, so if you can't do it, don't do it! ——It's just that she still doesn't understand how Charlotte finally judged the ghosts outside the cave as ghosts.

"The so-called ghosts, in simple terms, are actually the ghosts left by people who were eaten by tigers."

Seeing that the mysterious man with yellow eyes still didn't respond, Charlotte continued to explain to Charlize,

"In ancient Chinese legends, it is said that tigers will control the souls of the people they eat and turn them into ghosts, and then let them lure other living people to serve as their food, which is the so-called "serving the tiger"—— This legend is true to a certain extent, but it can turn the soul of the person it eats into a ghost.

It is not an ordinary tiger, but a ghost tiger among mandrills, a special spirit that is neither a living being nor a ghost. "

Having said that, Charlotte looked at the mysterious man with yellow eyes, his so-called "Ghost Tiger\

,""However, you seem to have a clear mind, unlike ordinary mandrills. Are you changed by humans?"

—this time, so that Charlize could understand, he spoke in English.

"As you said just now—you seem to be quite clear-headed."

The mysterious man with yellow eyes, no, the ghost tiger laughed, and there was a gust of wind in the cave,

"After the mandrills at the beginning of the kingdom of heaven were lost in the civil strife, Hong Xiuquan came up with the idea of ​​us rebels in order to replenish his strength. He wanted to use the form of living sacrifices to refine us into new mandrills. I am not talented, He was the most murderous among those people, so he was chosen as a ghost tiger. Unfortunately, when I woke up, I was already brought to this land of America, the kingdom of heaven, by someone..."

As he said that, Ghost Tiger also sighed. But then, his tone changed,

"Since you know that I am a ghost tiger, and you can also see that those outside are all ghosts transformed from the people I ate, then you should know why I recruited you here by casting spells, right?"

really!

Charlotte smiled wryly in her heart, and was about to speak, but Ghost Tiger continued:

"Although you are proficient in some spells, your mana is not high. If it's just you, you can escape from the old man with some confidence, but if you want to take the woman beside you with you..."

Absolutely can't escape!

Charlotte completed the rest of the words for the other party in her heart. He knew what the other party said was right, with his current mana, he could barely protect himself, and it was really impossible to get Charlize next to him, not to mention——

"Anika!?"

Charlize groaned softly. At the entrance of the cave, Annika, a make-up artist with blank eyes, stood there like a ghost, still wearing the same pajamas from before. Although the night wind outside made her very cold, she didn't react at all, obviously being controlled by the ghost tiger.

Unlike Charlize, who was awakened by Alexis who was attached to her body halfway, Annika has not woken up like sleepwalking since she was lured by the ghost sent by Ghost Tiger. It might be a good thing to say, but it made Charlotte's current situation even worse.

"With such a burden, I can't run away! The ghost tiger controls her and appears, which is not a threat. But if you don't run, this tiger really wants to eat people. Looking at the hundreds of ghosts outside, they should all It has eaten it one after another over the years, and it has eaten so many people, this guy must have a lot of mana now, so it's hard to handle!"

Charlotte pondered for a while, and finally decided to put all her eggs in one basket.

"Guihu, why don't we negotiate a deal!"
