Yuan Zhenxia took a deep breath: "Please accept the medical explanation!" When An Pu heard this, he shook his head, but Yuan Zhenxia said sharply, "Listen to me before expressing your opinion!" An Pu sighed, looking impatient and helpless. Yuan Zhenxia said: "In medicine, there is a kind of disease, which mainly comes from psychological barriers, which will lead to the phenomenon of eating strange food. There are even people who are addicted to eating soil. Bloodlust is one of the phenomena." Anpu sighed again, and Yuan Zhenxia continued: "Recently, in Australia, there was a case where several women were bloodthirsty and even hurt others for blood. Due to the psychological barrier of the patients, they could not even eat solid food. Food, in medicine—”

When Yuan Zhenxia said this, An Pu seemed to be unable to bear it any longer, and he suddenly shouted: "Go to your medicine! Triss is not a human being, your medicine only studies the human body, she is a vampire zombie! You treat her all the time!" I don’t know, after you meet her, you will know!” In an instant, the carriage became very silent.Shui Hong stuck out his tongue, An Pu's face was pale, and Yuan Zhenxia looked out of the car. After a long while, An Pu coughed: "I'm sorry, Doctor Yuan, I've heard what you said just now, I don't know how many times... That's not true!"

Yuan Zhenxia made a gesture, indicating that there is no need to discuss it any further.An Pu couldn't stop apologizing, and Shui Hong smoothed things over: "After meeting Triss, ask her to transform into a bat and fly around the castle, and the original doctor will believe it!" Anpu hesitated to speak, with a troubled expression on his face.Yuan Zhenxia shrugged: "Shui Hong, stop talking nonsense!" The mountain road is circling, sometimes you can see the old castle, sometimes you can only see towering ancient trees.Suddenly, turning around the corner of the mountain, there is a big stone flat in front of me, on which the old castle is built.

It is estimated that the altitude is at least 1,000 meters above sea level at this time, and the surroundings are cheerful, and you can see very far, the scenery is excellent, it makes you feel refreshed and open-minded.Yuan Zhenxia praised from the bottom of his heart: "Good place!" The car drove straight to the main entrance of the old castle. Someone must have been watching and waiting in the old castle. As soon as the car arrived, the gate of the old castle was slowly pushed open. When the three of them got out of the car, a band in the castle came out to welcome them, playing welcome music.All kinds of servants and guards also lined up, and a large roll of red carpet was laid out from the stone steps at the entrance of the castle!

This style, coupled with this environment, makes people feel like they are in a dream! An Pu bent down deeply and made a gesture of "please come in".Yuan Zhenxia and Shui Hong were surprised that the welcoming ceremony was so grand.They followed An Pu, walked forward, and walked into the castle amidst the melodious music. Once inside, there is a huge hall, and the light in the hall is very dark.They were coming in from the bright midday sun, so there was an insanely short time for the eyesight to adjust. Under the situation where they couldn't see clearly, Yuan Zhenxia and Shui Hong stopped naturally.

In just a few seconds, their eyesight could already adapt to the darkness.They saw, not far in front of them, a man and a woman standing side by side. The man was An Pu—naturally, when they stopped, An Pu walked over and stood beside the woman. And that woman was slender, even taller than the earl, wearing an evening dress with sloping shoulders and low cut, the long skirt trailed the floor, and she was very graceful. It is often heard that when you see a beautiful woman, your eyes will light up. That's how Yuan Zhenxia felt at the time.Moreover, after the sudden light in front of his eyes, he felt a very strange feeling in an instant. For a moment, he didn't know where this feeling came from.

It may be quite long to describe Yuan Zhenxia's feelings at that time in words, but it should be noted that what happened at that time only took about a second. Yuan Zhenxia was dazzled by the woman's brilliance at first.Then, he saw the tall and tall woman with a strangely white complexion—that's when he had a weird feeling. Yuan Zhenxia immediately understood why he felt weird, because the beauty was wearing a strangely designed evening dress: sloping shoulders, bare chest, long sleeves on the left side from the shoulder down, and the right arm from the shoulder to the wrist. , all naked.

The evening dress is black, the light in the hall is very dark, and the background and the subject are mixed together.So at first glance, it looks like she has only one arm! And even though the light was dark, the woman's skin was still dazzlingly white, as if her jade body would naturally glow. She stood in a very elegant posture, with long pale golden hair hanging behind her.It can be seen that her blue eyes are shining with deep eyes, and her facial features are beautiful. She is actually a standard Caucasian beauty! At this time, An Pu had already held the sleeved left hand of the beautiful woman, and led her forward to introduce: "Tracey, my fiancée, Dr. Yuan Zhenxia!"

Triss came in front of Yuan Zhenxia, ​​making Yuan Zhenxia feel suffocated.After the introduction, Triss raised her right hand slightly, and Yuan Zhenxia did so naturally, following Western etiquette. He bowed first, then lightly held the fingertips of Triss' right hand, raised Triss' hand, leaned over, and kissed lightly on the back of her hand. It was a very common meeting ceremony, but Yuan Zhenxia just kissed the back of his hand when he heard Shui Hong next to him make a very strange sound--that sound did not come from his mouth, but from his throat Yes, usually, only when you feel very frightened, will there be such a sound.

Yuan Zhenxia let go of Triss' hand, turned his head to look at Shui Hong, and saw that Shui Hong was looking terrified.When Yuan Zhenxia looked at her, Shui Hong stretched out his hand and pointed at Triss. Yuan Zhenxia turned back, also suddenly startled. At this time, he was very close to Triss, and Triss's bare, snow-white arm was right in front of his eyes. Yuan Zhenxia suddenly understood why Shui Hong was afraid! A female arm!It looks exactly the same as the arm protruding from the sarcophagus in the showroom! In an instant, Yuan Zhenxia also felt the fear of being shocked by an electric shock!

But he immediately thought that there was a big difference between the two.The current arm belonged to a lively beauty, but the arm protruding from the sarcophagus belonged to some kind of terrifying beast! Yuan Zhenxia took a breath and immediately calmed himself down. Anpu has introduced Shuihong to Triss, but Shuihong obviously couldn't calm down, so he couldn't help but behave a little bit at a loss.Triss stretched out her hand to her, but she shrank back and didn't shake hands with Triss. Triss' actions were very decent. She didn't say anything, but just smiled and said in a soft and pleasant voice: "Don't be afraid, although I am a vampire, I am not harmful!" Seeing such a stunning beauty calling herself a vampire with such a melodious voice, Yuan Zhenxia naturally called out: "No!" Triss rolled her eyes and looked at him: "I am, don't need to hide it, I am!" Yuan Zhenxia couldn't help smiling bitterly—he felt that if it was a kind of sickness, then Triss's condition was obviously much more serious than the Earl's! Triss said again in a very firm voice: "I'm not ashamed of who I am, so there's no need to hide it!" Yuan Zhenxia usually has such a quick response, but at this time, he couldn't say a word except for a wry smile! An Pu said loudly: "Why stand up and talk, please go to my study, there is good wine!" Triss said softly: "The two guests just arrived, don't you want to take a rest?" Yuan Zhenxia hurriedly said: "No need, the matter may be very urgent, it's better to solve it first." Triss raised her eyebrows, she didn't seem to understand what Yuan Zhenxia meant by saying that. After entering the study, the count poured wine for everyone.Shui Hong stood beside Yuan Zhenxia, ​​and kept motioning to talk to Yuan Zhenxia, ​​with an anxious expression on his face. Yuan Zhenxia said in a low voice: "I know, you mean her arms are very similar to the ones sticking out of the sarcophagus!" Shui Hong said anxiously: "It's not very similar, it's the same! Hands, arms, and nails are all the same!" Yuan Zhenxia stretched out his hand and patted the back of Shui Hong's hand, signaling her to calm down and not rush to bring up the matter first. After sitting down, everyone has wine in their hands.What Triss had in her hand was a silver cup with a lid. She brought the silver cup close to her mouth, lifted the lid, covered her mouth, and took a sip of the liquid in the cup. Yuan Zhenxia and Shui Hong couldn't help looking at each other again, feeling very strange: Is she drinking human blood? The count spoke first: "Tracey said that she didn't know how old she was. Generally speaking, the lifespan of vampire zombies is much longer than that of humans, and there are more than five hundred years. Triss said that she died once, so the situation is very special. She It is impossible to know how old I am, but it is inevitable to be over three hundred years old." An Pu said it very naturally, but what he said was weird and inexplicable. Yuan Zhenxia looked at Triss, at this time, Triss had put down the silver cup, and there was no blood on her attractive lips.Yuan Zhenxia's thoughts were very disordered, the first thing he thought of was: have you died once?Can vampire zombies die over and over again? If this is the case, it is understandable that the earl yearns to become a vampire.It's just that she didn't know how she died?Is it like in the legend that a sharpened wooden stick was nailed into the heart to death? Yuan Zhenxia thought of this in various ways, and heard Shui Hong asking: "How did you die, could it be—" As soon as Yuan Zhenxia heard it, he knew that what Shui Hong thought must be the same as what he thought.So he quickly stretched out his hand, and pressed Shui Hong's mouth falsely to prevent her from continuing—that would be too impolite after all! Yuan Zhenxia's gaze naturally fell on Triss's breasts at this moment—the breasts are tall, the skin is snow-like, and the cleavage is deep, so beautiful! Of course, there was no trace of being nailed in by a wooden stick on Triss's chest. Until now, Yuan Zhenxia still had doubts about Triss' identity as a vampire zombie.He thought that it is not surprising that pica patients may also have mental paranoia. He felt that there was one thing that must be resolved first, he said: "The sarcophagus in the castle──" An Pu didn't wait for him to finish, and said: "I asked Triss, there is no... what strange phenomenon happened..." Yuan Zhenxia raised his eyebrows: "Should I tell Tris the vision of the sarcophagus first?" An Pu looked at Triss, and Triss didn't understand, but she still said: "Doctor Yuan has decided! Although I am also impatient, I want to discuss matters that are directly related to me with Doctor Yuan." Yuan Zhenxia sighed, and he, Shui Hong, and An Pu explained all about the sarcophagus and the two sarcophagi in the museum as briefly and concisely as possible. Triss' reaction was very strange. She was not afraid, but excited.Several times, the three of them stopped talking, wanting to hear her opinion, but her chest heaved and she gasped: "No, I'll talk after you finish talking." After talking about everything, Triss sat in a daze again, not saying a word. Judging by her expression, it seemed that she had infinite grief and had nowhere to confide in.Although she was tall and tall, she was a stunning beauty and with such an expression, she naturally had a delicate and charming demeanor. The count had long since embraced her without asking why, and kept kissing her gently on her face, forehead, and lips, comforting her with actions of love instead of words. For a while, Yuan Zhenxia couldn't figure out why Triss would have such a reaction after hearing everything about the sarcophagus.He paused for a while before adding: "Such a vision appeared in that sarcophagus... It is really heart-stirring. This vision is caused by the two of you wanting the two sarcophagi to meet at the same time, so, If both of you cancel this idea at the same time, that terrible phenomenon will disappear!" Shui Hong added: "This is why we came to see you." The matter could not be explained more clearly.In the museum, as soon as this request was made to the earl, the earl immediately agreed.But at this time, the beautiful and charming Triss looked at this and that, but refused to agree. Judging by her expression, she not only refused to agree, but also seemed to have another purpose! Yuan Zhenxia couldn't help frowning. At this time, Triss buried her face in Amp's arms.Her long, light-blond, naturally curly hair fell like a waterfall on her back. Her body was trembling slightly, so that beautiful hair also shone with dazzling brilliance. Everyone was waiting for her answer, but she raised her head after a while, still looking mournful, and asked An Pu in a very timid voice: "Why didn't this phenomenon happen to the sarcophagus in the castle?" ?” An Pu replied very helplessly: "I don't know, dear, I don't know!" As he spoke, he looked towards Yuan Zhenxia and Shui Hong, trying to find answers from them.Yuan Zhenxia's brows were knotted, and Shui Hong sarcastically said, "Perhaps, there is a man's arm stretching out now..." Although Shui Hong was sarcastic, when she mentioned the possibility, she still couldn't help but feel a chill.However, when Triss heard Shui Hong's words, she immediately showed a hopeful expression, stood up, and asked Shui Hong, "Is this possible? Is this possible?" She asked repeatedly, as if there was a man's arm sticking out from the sarcophagus, this extremely terrifying phenomenon was exactly what she was eagerly looking forward to! Shui Hong raised his eyebrows: "Why don't you go and have a look?" Triss showed an even more elated expression, holding An Pu's hand: "Go, let's go and see!" Amp obviously didn't understand why Triss hoped that there would be such a terrible phenomenon?So he also had a look of fear on his face, and he couldn't go against Tracey's wishes, so his expression was hesitant. At this time, Yuan Zhenxia still didn't know why Triss had such a reaction, but with his keen sense, he could be sure of one thing: the two sarcophagi, the vision that happened in the sarcophagus, had a very close relationship with Triss relation! This must be the case for Triss to have such a weird reaction! Therefore, Yuan Zhenxia also agreed: "Okay, let's go and see your sarcophagus—all the weird things started after Qi Bai discovered it..." Although An Pu was afraid, he couldn't show timidity in front of his fiancée.He nodded in agreement, and led the way with Triss.Yuan Zhenxia and Shui Hong followed behind, Shui Hong looked at Yuan Zhenxia with doubts, Yuan Zhenxia shook his head, indicating that he was also puzzled and had no answer. The castle is quite big, as soon as the study room was opened, An Pu said, "That sarcophagus is in the bedroom." From the study to the Earl's bedroom, Triss seemed anxious and walked quickly, but it took nearly three minutes.Pushing open the bedroom door, Yuan Zhenxia and Shui Hong saw the sarcophagus. The bedroom is large, and the layout is naturally extremely luxurious, but the most special thing is naturally where the bed should be placed, and there is the sarcophagus. The count completely regarded the sarcophagus as a bed, so on the sarcophagus, there are curtains with gorgeous embroidery. On the sarcophagus, there is also a corresponding bedding. The sarcophagus is exactly the same as the one in the museum.As soon as Triss walked in, she let go of An Pu, and hurried forward, making a circle around the sarcophagus.Then, showing a very disappointed expression, without saying a word, he stood beside the sarcophagus with his head bowed. Looking at her situation, it seemed that she was extremely disappointed because she had never found an arm protruding from the sarcophagus! The count hurried to her side and held her head up.Her pretty face was covered with tears, and the tears were still pouring out! Amp asked again and again, but Triss just kept silent. Yuan Zhenxia and Shui Hong looked at each other, and Shui Hong sighed: "There is a scene with arms stretched out, which is not pretty at all. If you really want to see it, you can go to the museum to see it-in fact, there is nothing interesting, the arm , just like your arm!" Since Triss's behavior is not very normal, Shui Hong deliberately stimulates her with words, hoping that she will wake up. However, after listening to Shui Hong's words, Triss replied with a sentence that no one could think of. She actually said, "That's my arm!" There was also a crying sound in her voice, so it was also very pleasant.The other three people could hear her words clearly, but even her fiancé didn't understand what it meant! She even said that the arm sticking out of the sarcophagus in the museum was hers! After hearing this weird and inexplicable sentence, it was An Pu who reacted the most.He even took a step back, staring at his fiancée with puzzled eyes.It looked like he was staring at a stranger. Yuan Zhenxia and Shui Hong were naturally astonished, and their thoughts immediately changed, wanting to understand the meaning of this sentence.At the same time, various assumptions were made, but without results, they could not understand. In an instant, the bedroom was extremely quiet.It was An Pu who broke the silence first, and he asked tentatively in a voice full of doubts: "You... haven't told me that you have a twin sister!" This sentence expresses Amp's understanding of Triss' weird words—the person in that sarcophagus may be Triss' twin sister.Twins often think of themselves as one person psychologically. Yuan Zhenxia has a very deep understanding of this. So when he heard An Pu say this, he also admired An Pu's quick thinking, and at the same time, this was the only possible assumption. Of course, this assumption can only be achieved by AMP.Because An Pu believes that his fiancée is a vampire—only a vampire can have a twin sister buried in a sarcophagus for hundreds of years! The assumption made by An Pu can be said to be unimaginable to the extreme, but Triss shook her head and said, "I don't have twin sisters. What you see...the arm is mine." An Pu's expression was as if he was wrapped around his neck by a poisonous snake, and his pale face turned red, which was naturally due to the surge of energy and blood.He waved his hand vigorously, suddenly laughed loudly, and pointed at Triss: "Honey, it turned out that you were hiding in that sarcophagus to scare us!" An Pu naturally knew that his second hypothesis was absolutely impossible to establish. It was an act of deceiving himself in an extremely unreliable mental state in order to comfort himself. Yuan Zhenxia is a doctor, and he has a deep understanding of this kind of behavior. He couldn't help snorting: "Count, don't make wild guesses, why not let Triss explain further!" An Pu still couldn't calm down, he patted his forehead with his hands, and shouted: "God—I know you are a vampire, but I never knew you would become Dafa!" Triss looked at him lovingly, held his hand, and said softly, "It's not the incarnation of Dafa either!" The three asked in unison: "Then what is it?" Triss lowered her head again.It seemed that it was very difficult for her to explain further. After a while, she seemed to be talking to herself, reaching out to caress the sarcophagus: "Why haven't you changed? Is it because you died?" Her behavior became more and more strange, and her words became more and more incomprehensible.The most dizzying one, of course, was An Pu. He opened his mouth wide and let out a cooing sound from his throat. Triss sighed long and long, looked at An Pu, showing a sad expression again.He stopped talking again and again, before asking: "You really... don't want the two sarcophagi to meet?" An Pu cleared his throat: "Say yes... there will be a catastrophe!" Triss sighed again: "There won't be, even if there were originally, it's not a big disaster... Alas, it doesn't make any difference whether we meet or not!" It is already shocking to use the word "rendezvous" on the two sarcophagi, not to mention that Triss' words are so incomprehensible! Shui Hong couldn't help asking: "Doctor Yuan, do you understand?" Yuan Zhenxia was annoyed: "I don't understand!" Shui Hong replied: "Yes, humans can't understand it, it's the language of vampire zombies!" As Shui Hong said this, Triss looked at her.Seeing Triss' sad expression, Shui Hong couldn't bear it again, so she said, "I'm sorry!" Triss said sadly, "No need to be sorry, I was originally a vampire zombie." The bedroom fell silent again, Triss closed her eyes for a while, her tone became calm: "Do you want to hear a story about vampire zombies?" Before the three of them could react, she said to An Pu again: "Although you wish to become a vampire, you don't know much about vampires!" An Pu hurriedly said: "Yes! Yes! My dear, if you don't want to say it, you don't have to say it!" Naturally, it was because Triss looked too sad that Amp said that.Tears welled up in Triss' eyes again, and her voice was sweet: "Although the story is sad, what I'm sad about...is another thing." After entering the bedroom, everyone stood, until then, Triss said: "Please sit down, both of you!" She went to a cabinet, opened it, and took out a bottle of wine. Originally, drinking could be done anytime and anywhere, but at this time and place, it seemed that wine was needed even more. After all three of them had alcohol in their bodies, Triss snuggled up to Anpu and sat together in a big easy chair. She sighed first: "A few years ago, there were a number of vampire zombies on the earth. Since the existence of vampire zombies is very different from that of human beings, and it damages the existence of human beings, there is naturally a difference between the two. Incompatible sworn enemies." When Triss said this, she snorted again.Neither Yuan Zhenxia nor Shui Hong expected that she would start so far away, not only felt weird, but also inexplicable. Shui Hong first asked: "Excuse me, where did the vampire zombie come from? What kind of creature is it?" Triss raised her head with a confused expression: "We don't know where we came from. As for what kind of creature is it, what kind of creature is human beings?"
