Chapter 3376 [Ancient Fairy Tale: Snow White]
With dots of ice-blue light, the boat passed through the small town with thousands of lights below and came to the top of the sea, and finally turned into nothingness under the starry sky.
It was as if I had passed through a thin black curtain, the starry sky above my head disappeared, and was replaced by endless nothingness. But it was not dark here. From far ahead, a huge silver moon disk gradually emerged from the darkness, until most of the dark moon was suspended above the water.
The speed of the boat gradually slowed down, and the light of the dark moon illuminated the slightly rippled water in front. When I looked around again, the boat had stopped in the black waters, and one pure white soul after another passed by the boat, heading towards the destination of all souls.
Bathed in the light of the dark moon, Mr. Otto, the corpse ghost, did not look back:
"It's so beautiful."
It sat in the boat, looking at the half moon and spoke, its voice completely back to normal.
"If you want to wait for your wife and leave hand in hand with her, you can wait in this water without moving forward for now."
Shade, who was holding the oar at the stern, said so, and the ghoul stood up and turned around to thank Shade. At the moment he turned around, he turned back into a human, but his body was still covered with a layer of frost.
That was the appearance of Mr. Otto in his youth. He was handsome and looked very reliable, which made Shad once again feel regretful about the story between him and his wife.
Mr. Otto looked carefully at the face of Shade with the cat on his shoulder, then bowed to him very solemnly and thanked him:
"Although I don't know who you are or what kind of great being you are, I am very grateful for your help and that lady's help."
Xia De did not stop him from expressing his gratitude:
"If it weren't for your obsession that made you stay in the world of the living after being thawed, you wouldn't have met me.
Go ahead, you will wait for her. This is the end of everything, there is no concept of time and space. Maybe after I turn around and leave, you will immediately see her walking towards you. When that happens, remember to hold her hand and move forward. "
A slight smile appeared on his face, and young Mr. Otto nodded solemnly again.
At this moment, his whole body was emitting an ice-blue light. The restoration of his youthful image represented the manifestation of his soul power. The corpse ghost's body was no longer large enough to contain his soul.
“Maybe this is of little value to you, but please accept my heart - here is a gift for you.”
Mr. Otto pointed to his chest again, bowed to Shade once more, and then walked away from the boat. The soul took two steps towards the dark moon, and then turned into a pure white appearance, and could no longer be distinguished among the thousands of departing souls.
But to those who have an emotional connection with him, he remains the same.
All mortals must die. Shade did not care about Mr. Otto's departure, but looked at the severely decayed body lying on the boat. The soul had found its home, and Shade still needed to take the body back himself. Of course, he could just throw the body overboard, but that was unnecessary.
There was a faint ice-blue light emanating from the chest of the corpse. Xia De stretched out his hand and unexpectedly two objects flew up.
First, a card flew out of the chest pocket of the corpse's shirt. It must be a very valuable thing that he carried with him.
The card flew in front of Shade. The back of the card was the back of the Rhodes card, and the front was a picture of a princess sitting on the grass and having a picnic with seven dwarfs. However, unlike ordinary cards, this card had a rare horizontal layout.
The light of the dark moon illuminated Xia De's blinking movements and the smile that gradually appeared. He knew that when he had nothing to do, he would mind other people's business. Who knows, he might encounter a surprise someday -
[Ancient fairy tale · Snow White], color: Star 9.
The special rule below the card says: When you draw this card, throw a 20-sided dice. If the number is 9, you can adjust the card number between 3 and 9. The total number cannot be adjusted to 20 or 21. Once this card rule is used, any other special card effects in this round will not take effect.
"You can adjust seven numbers. What an amazing rule."
Although this card cannot lead to victory, it is still very interesting. At the same time, this is also the fifth special rule card of the "Ancient Fairy Tale" series that Shade has obtained after [Match Girl], [Sleeping Princess], [Cinderella], and [Mermaid Song].
At this point, the total number of special cards in the Shade deck has reached 43, and the "Ancient Fairy Tales" series has become the series with the largest number of cards in the Shade deck except for the "Founding" series.
As for the second item, it was the thing emitting an ice-blue light. It was located inside the corpse, so it flew out much slower than the cards.
After Shad finished checking the cards, the frosted heart appeared in front of him.
Shade recognized what it was:
"The Heart of the Living Dead."
He couldn't help but sigh, that's why he always believed that every time something like "Heart of the Living Dead" appeared, it would be accompanied by a tragedy.
He put the heart into a bottle, then put it in a suitcase and placed it on the ship, and then returned from here.
Miss Larson and old lady Otto were still waiting for him on the cliff. After he came back, he wrapped Mr. Otto's body in white linen and returned it to the old lady in the wheelchair. After briefly instructing the old lady not to reveal what happened today, he sent her to the carriage hidden in the forest beside the path by Shade, and then they left before Mr. Meyer and others woke up.
"Mrs. Otto probably won't live much longer."
Walking side by side on the way down the mountain back to the town, the white-haired girl, who was in a low mood and still had slightly red eyes, spoke softly, then looked up at the starry sky.
"But we did the right thing. I always hope that all waiting will lead to something - the right kind of waiting, I mean. You did a good thing, Miss Larson."
"Didn't we do this together?"
"No, Mia and I were just hired by you for lunch."
Xia De said with a smile, and the white-haired witch apprentice couldn't help but smile. The depression just now was diluted a little. She knew that Xia De was deliberately comforting her, and this method was very effective.
Suddenly, Stella Larson felt that she almost understood why the man around her was liked by so many witches. He was indeed very powerful, but in addition to being powerful, what was truly powerful was his gentle soul. She had never met anyone like him:
"Give me your coat later and I'll help you clean it."
She moved a little closer to Xia De, whose coat was stained by her tears and the things she didn't want to say.
Shade originally wanted to say that the maid at home would be responsible for cleaning, but then he thought that this was also Miss Larson's intention:
"Okay, thank you for your hard work. But speaking of it, in addition to your reward today, Mr. Otto also gave me a great gift before he left, so today's work is not in vain."
He still held the suitcase in his hands.
"I also received a gift, and there was an extra sentence on the snake skin: [Don't close your soul, only warm enough emotions can endure the cold]."
Miss Larson paused and then continued softly:
"If an ordinary person can endure the cold in the ice for more than 50 years, I think I can do it too."
Although she had been to many places with Claire, she had not experienced too many separations, so she was particularly sentimental today. Looking at the town with lights on below the path, she actually had a lot of things to discuss with Shade, but Shade stopped her, and also stopped the cat from reminding him to eat dinner:
"Let's talk about other things later. We need to speed up our pace. Don't we have other things to do?"
"what else."
The white-haired girl's expression changed:
"Oh! That's bad! The teacher is still on the mountain!"
Originally, they thought that after Mrs. Otto came, they would meet Mr. Otto to make up for their regrets. No one expected that they would chat for two hours. But the story was really touching, so Xia De didn't feel like interrupting them. As a result, they were supposed to reach the top of the mountain at around 5:30 pm, but at this moment, the stars were high in the sky, and they had obviously missed the time.
So the two of them quickly returned to the Snow Mountain Hall, and after discussing with Ellie about going up the mountain, the unicorn carried them both into the night sky - Shad did not fly as fast as the unicorn.
The unicorn seemed very excited. Even though Shad reminded it to take care of its health, it still rushed up the mountainside at a very fast speed, then spread its wings and flew towards the peak on the west side of Fatumunster Snow Mountain according to Shad's instructions.
It was 6:43 pm when I saw the fire pot lit up in the night sky from afar. There was a circular platform about ten square meters on the top of the peak, surrounded by wooden stakes, and those stakes were wrapped with faded red silk cloth.
In the center of the platform stood a rather thick stone pillar, carved with the ancient snake-worship symbols of the Fatu people and scratches left by warriors who had passed the trial of the "Crown of Glory."
The brazier was located under the stone pillar, and Claire Reinhardt, who was standing next to the brazier with a dissatisfied look on her face, saw the unicorn rushing up from below at a glance.
When she saw that it was Xia De and her students on the unicorn, she felt even more dissatisfied.
After Shade jumped off the unicorn's back, the witch crossed her arms and asked him:
"Isn't this Mr. Hamilton? How did you find the time to come here? Do you know how long I have been waiting for you here?"
Xia De, feeling very sorry, guessed:
"Fifty minutes?"
"Fifty-four minutes! I was originally thinking that I would be able to see you and be hugged by you as soon as I reach the finish line in the cold wind."
She turned her head away from Shad, looking very unhappy, and at this time, Ellie also landed with Miss Larson. Shad did not say that he was delayed because of something, but apologized directly:
"Sorry, I'm late."
