my beauty world

Chapter 133 Are you ready? (Please subscribe)
The spacious hall is towering and steep, with complicated decorative carvings and light and beautiful modern lamps, creating a mysterious and splendid scene inside, sweeping away the dull and oppressive Gothic architecture, making the interior appear open and bright.

The walls and columns are covered with sculptures and murals, which are connected by exquisite patterns to form strange patterns.

Ronan didn't understand painting and sculpture, so he couldn't see what the abstract pattern was painting, but the gilded texture must be expensive.

This manor house is an absolute architectural masterpiece.

"Are you Murphy who came back with Catherine?" At the entrance, a man in his 30s came in. He was handsome and his brown hair was combed meticulously. He came to shake hands with Ronan: "Hi, I'm Catherine's cousin Daniel .”

Ronan shook hands with him, feeling that the man's knuckles were thick: "Hello, Daniel. I'm Murphy."

Daniel said with a smile: "People who shake my hand are always uncomfortable. I have rough hands. I am a professional archer. Unfortunately, I have not achieved good results. I am trying to enter the next National Championship."

Ronan said, "I wish you success."

But Daniel said: "Welcome to Virginia Manor, believe me, this is a wonderful experience."

Ronan pointed to the exquisite sculptures in the hall: "I am in a state of wonder."

Someone came in again at the door, but it was a middle-aged couple. The man had a beard and the woman had naturally high cheekbones.

Daniel introduced to Ronan: "This is my mother, Helene, and my father, Stevens." He then said to the two of them, "This is Murphy who came with Catherine."

Ronan nodded politely: "Hello."

The man was silent, and the woman answered: "Hello."

When she walked this way, the man automatically fell behind half a step.

Ronan could see that Helene Virginia was a strong woman.

Hailin just nodded to Ronan and walked towards the stairs: "I'm going to see Catherine."

Daniel apologized to Ronan and followed.

Stevens, who was at the back, took another look at Ronan, went upstairs silently without saying a word.

Ronan wondered, Laomei has the custom of getting married?

Alone again, Ronan didn't complain, the Virginia family always had something to say when they were reunited.

So, after he came, he didn't rush to mention the buffalo and the church back then.

After a while, Catherine changed into a neat black lady's suit and came down from upstairs.

"Sorry for keeping you waiting." Catherine invited Ronan to the restaurant: "The dinner is ready."

Ronan glanced at her, his eyes were red, and said: "It's okay, it's a great blessing in life to reunite relatives after a long absence. Like me, I don't even want to find relatives to reunite."

Catherine led the way, walked to the promenade, and said, "I told my mother about Sophia. After the dinner is over, she will talk to you alone."

Ronan said politely, "Don't worry."

The two entered the banquet hall, and a maid in black brought two hot towels one after another to wipe their faces first and then their hands.

Tony Virginia invited: "Murphy, sit wherever you want, you're welcome."

In front of the long dining table, there were already eight people sitting, besides the Hailin family whom I just met, and Catherine's uncle Henry's family.

As the host, Tony introduced Ronan one by one.

They are Henry and Nicky, and their daughter Melanie.

Including three members of Catherine's family, three members of Daniel's family, and Ronan, there are ten people in total.

Although the Virginia family was in decline, they put on a good posture. Two maids were serving in the dining room, and the two maids delivered meals one after another.

It's all French food, and many Ronan can't name them.

Undoubtedly, Ronan became the topic of conversation at the dinner table.

Henry asked, "What do you do in Los Angeles?"

Ronan said casually, "Freelance."

You can't say that you just became a Bank of America robber and plan to form a group, right?
"Freelance?" Henry seems to have the conservativeness of a small local: "I know a lot of people in the police and FBI systems. If you want to apply for the exam, I can help you say hello, especially the FBI. Some positions are very lucrative."

Daniel continued: "Uncle is the Chief of the Elko Police Department."

Luo Nan understood that in the original world, he was the director of a small street police station.

Henry shook his head suddenly: "It's not urgent, we'll talk about it in a few days."

During the chat, Ronan had a general understanding of the Virginia family.

Tony inherited most of the property, including the estate and a large nearby forest.

Henry's family is in politics, Henry is a policeman, and Nikki is a city councilor.

Hailin's family owns the largest factory in Elko, a meat processing factory, which not only supplies meat to the city, but also involves several surrounding cities.

The Virginia family is down, but in Elko, it's still second to none.

This big family looked very friendly on the surface, except for Catherine's cousin Melanie, who didn't talk much, most of them had a few chats with Ronan.

Of course, it's hard to say what the first contact is like.

Ronan didn't care what they really looked like, he came here mainly to inquire about the demonized bison, and he was going to leave tomorrow.

Because he found that these people kind of regarded him as Catherine's boyfriend.

After dinner, Ronan took the initiative to find Catherine's mother, Vera, and said softly, "Ma'am, please excuse me, my aunt Sophia..."

Vera nodded slightly: "I also want to know about Sophia's situation, come with me."

Ronan followed her into the lounge next to the restaurant.

In the restaurant, Henry stood up and stretched his arms and legs a little, and asked the family patriarch, "Tony, are you ready?"

Daniel rubbed his knuckles: "I can't wait."

Tony said, "Go to the basement."

Catherine followed her family expressionlessly and went to the basement together.

In the lounge, Vera, with her long hair neatly coiled behind her head, asked, "I haven't seen Sofia in almost 20 years. Is she okay?"

Ronan said vaguely: "What happened back then had a great impact on her. She left the United States, but now she lives very well."

Vera sighed: "Sophia and I are more fortunate. We were only expelled from the church. A few years ago, we might have been killed secretly. It is not easy for the two of us to live. There is no place for us in Los Angeles. A woman ..."

Ronan said with relief: "It's all over, Sophia is living a good life now, and you seem to be very happy."

"Maybe." Vera recalled the past: "The church is best at slandering people and pouring dirty water on people."

Ronan responded, and turned to the topic. First, he gave Vera the souvenir he bought from Father Thomas: "Sophia asked me to pass it on."

Seeing that it was a cross, Vera didn't accept it, but instead said, "I've accepted Sophia's wish, but I don't want anything else."

Ronan put it in his pocket without reluctance, and then said: "Sophia heard you tell about a peculiar American bison, saying that it would not get tired after running for a week, and that shotgun bullets could only cause very little trauma. .”

Vera nodded: "Yes, I told her, I didn't expect that after so many years, she still remembers."

Ronan smiled: "She kept saying that you were her best friend at that time. You have gone through the most difficult years hand in hand. This friendship is more precious than gold."

This sounded good, and Vera laughed and asked, "She wants to know the whereabouts of the bison?"

Ronan said, "Yes, she has a client who wants special bison horns."

Vera pondered for a while, and didn't intend to say it at first, but thinking about what happened tonight, it doesn't matter anymore.

This is Sophia's relative, so let me give some last consolation: "I saw the bison once in a while in the wild ranch in my hometown. Its pure white fur, in the legend of the aborigines, symbolizes good luck and a good harvest."

She recalled for a moment: "Four years ago, I went back to handle the burial of relatives, and heard the locals talk about this white bison."

"Madam, where is your hometown?" Ronan hoped it would not be too far away.

Now that Vera opened his mouth, he simply said: "Squaw Valley west of the capital Carson City."

Ronan kept it firmly in his heart and said, "Thank you."

From a vague message to a clearer goal.

This trip was not in vain.

The two chatted for a while, and Vera called the maid and took Ronan to the guest room on the second floor to rest.

…………

Vera went all the way down the stairs to the basement.

Everyone in the manor, including nine members of the Virginia family, eleven people including servants, cooks, housekeepers and grooms, a total of twenty people were all present.

Tony opened the black wooden box, took out the black robes embroidered with patterns, and asked Vera to distribute them to everyone.

Catherine took the black robe, feeling a little uneasy in her heart, her voice trembling slightly: "Dad, Mom..."

At this critical moment, Tony did not allow any accidents: "Catherine, don't you want to revive the family?"

The eyes of the others all fell on Catherine.

Catherine pursed her lips tightly, put on a black robe, and said firmly, "For the revival of the family!"

Tony put on his black robe and turned to face the innermost side of the basement.

There is an altar in the shape of a Mayan pyramid, with lifelike obsidian statues standing on the altar!

The statue's giant snake-like body is coiled around the altar, but it has two horns on its head and a pair of wings on its back!
Everyone's black robes were embroidered with patterns of feathered snakes.

Tony fell to one knee, cut his palm, and pressed it to the obsidian floor.

The others followed suit.

The traces of blood stained the ground lines red.

Tony said: "The ancient and great Feathered Serpent God, we will offer you a rich battle blood sacrifice, please help the Virginia family get rid of bad luck and regain glory!"

On the feathered snake statue carved out of obsidian, the eyes inlaid with rubies actually had a red light flashing across them.

"Are you ready?" Tony stood up and said, "Activate the magic circle! Close the doors and windows! Only at dawn!"

Catherine dropped all her thoughts, picked up her sword, and explained Ronan's situation again, emphasizing: "He is very strong, at least I am not an opponent! Be careful everyone!"

Daniel put the quiver on his back and picked up the short bow: "Don't worry, the magic circle has been activated and can only be closed at dawn. He can't escape!"

Hai Lin, who works as a meat processing factory, picked up a bone-chopping knife: "The great Feathered Serpent God, taught us combat knowledge and skills, let us learn from the hunter system left by the Indians, and the battle blood sacrifice is also related to each of us. For promotion, the stronger the opponent is, after killing him, the closer we are to promotion!"

Tony turned the mechanism, and an iron door rose, and six North American coyotes ran out, one of which was particularly majestic, obviously the alpha wolf.

"Don't talk nonsense, start classical hunting, kill people, and sacrifice to Feathered Serpent God, the Virginia family is one step closer to revival!"

Gula's Indian heritage has not undergone modernization and improvement, and the low-level is all the use of cold weapons.

　(The plot is changed from the movie "Ready or Not". The feathered snake god is a god believed by the Aztecs and Mayans, and a little element of the blood god of Warcraft, Haka, is added. Continue to be a hodgepodge...)
