Son of the Olden Days

Chapter 178: The commission in the dream

More than a month has passed from the deterioration of the body to the present, and in this short period of more than a month, Thor's original life has long been completely changed beyond recognition.

During this difficult day, Sol's physical condition has been repeatedly switched between four states: cold, hot, high fever, and pain, and never stopped every day. In all these states, the most terrifying is still the pain that is irresistible.

The pain that Shuggs once said before he died, that the bug burrows in the bone, Thor would experience it every few days.

No matter how many times you face this kind of pain, you can never get used to it. Life is better than death every time, and there is no escape.

In the first period of time, Thor had visited many places with pain. I have also seen countless herbalists, plague doctors, healers, fortune-tellers, pharmacists, magicians, and anyone he thinks might be helpful to him.

However, in the end there was no result. No one could tell what happened to Sol, even most of them were skeptical of Sol’s narrative, or took the opportunity to sell some weeds to Sol.

During this time, Thor had eaten monster soup made from various herbs, no matter whether it was effective or not, no matter how it tasted, and no matter whether it caused any sequelae.

Saul didn't care too much. After all, a person whose blood turned green had nothing to care about.

Later, Thor finally gave up all unrealistic fantasies and no longer asked for any help.

Maybe Shuggs had nowhere to ask at that time, and finally walked lonely on the way home.

And now, it's my turn.

Saul spent all his time and energy on fighting various negative states of the body. Sometimes people were walking normally at the first moment, and then fell into a coma involuntarily at the next moment.

Now he looks like a tramp who can often be seen on the street, or he lives like a mouse.

The beard is messy, the hair that grows long has become greasy and knotted because of long time neglect, and the body often exudes the smell of the sewer in the hottest weather, which is disgusting.

During this more than a month, Sol suffered countless eyes and disgust, and often lived in stables, garbage dumps, and dirty alleys. Anyway, when he felt that his consciousness was about to fall into a drowsiness, he would just find the nearest place to lie down.

In the last few days, he would cough up blood almost every day, and the blood was still green.

As if the internal organs had rotted in the chest cavity, the blood exuded a very strong and strange smell, which seemed to be corrosive to the plants on the ground. And the strangest thing is that even though he is already like this, he is still alive.

Sol never dared to show these anomalies in front of people, he didn't want to be treated as an outlier.

From the beginning, he suspected that he was a disease, and then he thought it was poisoning. Finally, he gradually understood that he seemed to be cursed. The reason for this conclusion is that all aspects of his physical condition have clearly exceeded the scope of a normal person.

As for when did you start to curse yourself? Thor thought about it carefully but couldn't find the answer.

Maybe it was when I saw Rotten Cloud, maybe in the secret world of Iwen, or, as Shuggs said, maybe in a tomb robbery, who knows?

Saul even suspected that he and Shuggs were actually hit by the same curse at the same time.

It's just maybe because of the difference in physique or the differences between individuals, Shuggs took a step first, and it was only half a year later that he began to show various abnormalities.

But all kinds of speculations are meaningless now, after all, things have happened.

After struggling for a month, Thor suddenly found that his physical condition had deteriorated further.

That was what happened one day after waking up from a coma. Sol felt itchy in his fingers and subconsciously reached out and scratched it. Then he saw the nail of his left thumb, just like a whole piece falling off without warning, and there were a few green blood stains on the fingers.

Then when he was eating the next day, he felt that the bread seemed to be mixed with stones.

When he spit it into his palm and took a closer look, he discovered that it was not a stone but a tooth of his own. After licking Thor with his tongue, he discovered that his tooth had fallen out at some point.

This feeling is terrifying. When you look at a certain part of your body and leave you so painlessly or even unconsciously, you suddenly feel a thrilling sense of silence in your heart.

But after a bit of panic, Saul still didn't take it too seriously in the end, because he knew that he would soon go to the same ending as Shuggs. Death may be a kind of relief, but it is not necessarily a kind of relief. When you think about it this way, life suddenly becomes clear.

The most important thing is that he has had enough of such days.

Just when Saul thought he would lose all his nails and teeth, and then the final decay of his body came, things changed again.

The change comes from his dream, which is the strange dream about the wall made up of the head.

In the new dream, Thor still walked through the walls of heads as he did several times before. One of the heads desperately yelled something to Sol, and Sol in the dream subconsciously listened.

"Kill Klein Horwood, kill him, at Wosestein's anvil. He killed me, conspired to take my property and wife, and I want him to die." The head was on the wall to Sol Howling.

But it seemed that he didn't have much time. After saying this to Saul, the head seemed to be dragged into the mud on the wall by some force, and finally disappeared.

When Saul came back from his dream, he felt a little strange.

Today's physical condition is just in the turn of the severe cold, and Thor is curled up by the fire in the cave, able to think rationally to a certain extent.

In order to prevent anyone from noticing his anomaly, Thor recently moved to a cave in the wilderness and lived a solitary life alone.

That weird dream has appeared many times since these days, but the heads on the wall have never had a specific communication with me. Their voices seem to be coming from under the surface of the water from far away, I have never heard it clearly. .

But in this dream, Saul heard so clearly that after waking up he still remembered the content of the dream clearly, so Saul began to wonder about the content of the dream.

Klein Horwood sounds obviously a personal name, while Wosestein seems to be a place name, and the anvil seems to be a tool used by blacksmiths to strike iron.

When Saul turned out the map suspiciously, his gaze suddenly condensed.

Because there is actually a territory called Wosestan on the map, which looks like two territories separated by the main city of Odrensa.

Most of the dreams of people are usually absurd, but there are also some dreams that may be caused by people and things in reality that leave you so deep impression that they appear in dreams.

The question is, I don’t know anything about the names of people and places mentioned by the head on the wall, and I’ve never heard of them, and what does this have to do with the curse-ridden self?

With unresolved doubts in his arms, Thor passed through the secret realm two days later and came to the territory of Wolsaistan.

To be honest, he didn't know what he was doing. If a person thinks of taking a seat in reality based on what he hears in the dream, Saul thinks he must be crazy.

However, to Thor's shock, he asked a local person casually to find out that there is indeed a small town called Anvil Town in this territory. It is said that the town got its name because there were several skilled blacksmiths in the town many years ago.

When Sol rushed to Anvil Town to inquire again, there was actually a family named Horwood in the town, and it was still a small, well-known and wealthy family in the town.

And Klein Horwood is an old widower, still alive today, in his sixties. However, it has been several years since he abdicated from the position of head of the family. Currently, his son is in charge of family affairs, and his wife passed away more than ten years ago.

Although the overlap of dreams and reality is shocking, Thor suddenly feels a little confused when he is really at this point.

The head on the wall seems to have given himself a commission in a dream, but what shall I do next? Kill the target as the head said? So is what he said is true?

The point is that even if what the head says is true, Saul doesn't want to be a judge or an avenger in his heart.

Sol is no stranger to killing people, and he even had several lives in his hands. Although they were all out of their own revenge, and the reasons were not too noble, at least Saul thought they deserved to die.

Now that he wants to kill someone who has nothing to do with him and never knows, Saul still feels a little bit in his heart after all. After all, he is not a killer of money or a righteous person.

And even though Saul had blood on his hands, he still adhered to a bottom line in his heart.

Just like cannibalism, during the most difficult famine in Grayscreen, Thor had passed by fresh corpses that had just died several times. He had also been wriggling his throat because of his instinctive desires, but he always Did not squat down.

People can always find enough reasons to convince themselves to cross the bottom line. It is not difficult to cross these bottom lines. The difficult thing is whether you are ready to face the subtle changes you will make afterwards.

No matter what you have done, time will eventually dispel inner resistance and anxiety, and soothe your grievances. After experiencing a brief period of loss, most people will still return to the right track to continue their lives.

It’s just that when you look back a few years later, you stubbornly think that you have not changed. In fact, in the eyes of people who are familiar with you, you are already completely unrecognizable and fallen into the torrent of time.

And the reason why you have changed may be because a long time ago, you crossed a certain bottom line that you have forgotten.
