Chapter 590 The Story of Elizabeth

"Miss Mary's temperament looks like a western aristocrat, and your name is Elizabeth. Could it be...Miss Mary is a member of the British royal family? I don't know why you came to the far east to open such a bar? " Xiao Peng seemed to have asked such a question unintentionally.

Ma Xiaoling, Wang Zhenzhen, Kuang Tianyou and the other three also looked at Elizabeth subconsciously.

"Hehe, in the UK, the name Elizabeth is very common. There are many people with this name, and it's nothing special! As for opening a bar in the East! Just like the name of this bar, wait, I'm waiting for someone, a Oriental."

Elizabeth smiled gracefully. She avoided Xiao Peng's question about her identity, and only answered the reason for opening this bar.

"Oh? Can you tell me?"

Elizabeth raised her head slightly, looked at the lights on the dome, and there was a look of reminiscence in her eyes, but only Xiao Peng noticed that in that remembrance, there were vicissitudes that penetrated time and space.

"My hometown is in a remote town. Back then, I, he was a handsome, elegant-spoken, and dignified oriental..."

"On that day, he suddenly appeared at the door of my house. He said he was thirsty and wanted to beg for a drink of saliva. I invited him into my house. During the communication with him, I was deeply attracted by him. In your words For me, I fell in love with him at first sight..."

"I asked him to stay at my house, but for some reason, he was unwilling to tell me his name anyway. He said that he had some unavoidable difficulties, but when he lived in my house, I still tried my best to let him I was happy and happy, and I gave him my pure body. Five days later, he left without saying goodbye. I was very sad. I wanted to see him again. I looked for him everywhere, but I couldn’t find him..."

"So, I came to the East and opened this bar! I don't know if I can wait for him in this life, but if I can die in the land of the East, at least I will be closer to him than I was in my hometown, no ?"

After listening to Elizabeth's words, Xiao Peng turned to Kuang Tianyou and the others and said, "That's why! I never believe in love at first sight. I only believe in love over time. I haven't spent a long time getting along and getting to know each other. I haven't experienced something together. That kind of relationship is not reliable at all.”

"It's like Mary, you don't even know the other person's name or who it is, so you fall in love with the other person without hesitation. In the end, what you get in return is just endless waiting. I don't think it's worth it at all. What do you think?"

Kuang Tianyou nodded his head in agreement, but Ma Xiaoling said, seemingly intentionally or unintentionally: "Besides, maybe he didn't return to China at all, but stayed abroad all the time? Then you wait here for him, maybe leave him It's farther away!"

After hearing what they said, the elegant smile on Elizabeth's face did not change at all. She smiled and said to Ma Xiaoling: "But at least this is his hometown, isn't it?"

Wang Zhenzhen looked at Elizabeth sympathetically, who is such a jerk!He actually has the heart to hurt such a good woman, she is definitely a heartless scum, if you don't like her, just reject her explicitly!He actually ran away after eating and wiping off people, what a scumbag!

Well, even a woman as gentle and kind as Zhenzhen, who never wants to think badly about people's hearts, thinks that person is a scum, then that person is really a scum.

"This man is too good. From his reluctance to tell you his name, it can be seen that he has no intention of being responsible to you. It's too bad. Mary, why do you wait for such a man? There are many good men in this world. Yes, you should find a man who truly loves you and live a happy life, so that you can be worthy of yourself!"

After listening to Wang Zhenzhen's words, Elizabeth just showed a slightly bitter smile and did not answer.

"Hey, Dapeng, what are you thinking? Why are you in a daze all of a sudden?" Ma Xiaoling asked inexplicably when she saw that Xiao Peng seemed to be in deep thought.

Xiao Peng came back to his senses, smiled at her, and said, "It's nothing, I just heard Elizabeth's story and thought of a legend."

"Oh? What legend?" Ma Xiaoling and others looked at Xiao Peng with great interest, and Elizabeth also looked at Xiao Peng with her soul-stirring eyes.

Picking up the glass, taking a sip, looking at the blood-shaped cocktail in the glass, which is made of vodka, tomato juice, lemon slices, and celery root, Xiao Peng said in a distant voice, "The legend about Bloody Mary."

Hearing Xiao Peng's words, Elizabeth's eyes flickered, but nothing unusual appeared on her face.

"I've heard of this a bit. It's said that there was a witch in ancient Europe who liked to bathe in women's blood, because she thought bathing in blood could keep her youthful. But what does this have to do with Miss Mary? Is it because Is her name Mary?" Ma Xiaoling looked at Xiao Peng inexplicably.

"But do you know the specific inside story?" Xiao Peng shook his head with a smile, and said slowly in a low voice: "It is said that in Europe in the 15th century, there was a countess who was so gorgeous, her name was Elizabeth. Ballet, also known as Marie, had countless suitors, including the French Emperor Louis XIV."

"In her lifetime, it is said that more than 100 young noblemen died fighting for her. Even when she was 60 years old, two romantic young poets raised their swords to commit suicide because they could not get her favor."

After hearing Xiao Peng's words, Ma Xiaoling said with disbelief on her face: "Cut, I don't believe that there are such beautiful women in this world. The so-called beauty and beauty are actually just people's praises. The key is her identity, beauty plus status, this is the reason why she is sought after!"

Xiao Peng smiled, ignored her complaints, glanced at the elegantly smiling Elizabeth, and continued: "Unfortunately, this Countess has never fallen in love with any handsome gentleman who flatters her, because she has always They are all waiting for the day when their lover will show up."

"When the countess was 18 years old, a young gentleman came to her castle. At that time, the man was wearing a gorgeous coat and was alone. I gave him water to drink, and fell in love with this handsome, personable, and elegant man."

"The countess persuaded the gentleman to live in the castle, but what the countess didn't understand was that the young gentleman was still reluctant to tell her his name, but the countess still tried her best to let him stay in the castle. Have fun these days."

"Five days later in the morning, the gentleman found the countess and told her that he was leaving. The countess was very sad and confessed to the gentleman with tears. Hearing the countess' true feelings, the gentleman still insisted on leaving, but before going out, The gentleman kissed the countess affectionately and told her that maybe one day he would come back to find her, and hoped that the countess at that time was still as beautiful as she is now."

When Xiao Peng said this, Ma Xiaoling, Wang Zhenzhen, Kuang Tianyou and the others subconsciously glanced at Elizabeth. No wonder Xiao Peng thought of this legend, how similar Elizabeth's experience was to the legendary countess!

The only difference is that what Elizabeth met was an oriental man, and the legendary countess met a western gentleman, and the man Elizabeth met left without saying goodbye, and the countess was not, but it is a very coincidence that , the men stayed at the woman's house for five days.

Xiao Peng's narration continued, "The gentleman left, and the countess gradually sank in long thoughts. The housekeeper who grew up watching her didn't want to see such a countess, so she took her to see the local priest. I hope I can help her find that man, but even the priest can't do anything, because he can't be found at all."

"So the countess fell ill on the bed in depression, and the housekeeper watched the countess's face getting paler and paler, and was very worried, until one day, she heard from somewhere that the blood of a girl can refresh one's mind and restore one's beauty."

"So the housekeeper killed the youngest maid in the family, gave her blood to the countess to drink, and used it to scrub her body, so that the countess became better and more beautiful every day. .”

Hearing what Xiao Peng said, Ma Xiaoling showed a look of surprise, it turned out that this was the case, and Wang Zhenzhen's body was covered with goose bumps, and she folded her arms and said weakly: "It's so scary! This housekeeper is really too crazy."

Xiao Peng smiled at her and said: "Actually, I quite understand the housekeeper. She watched the countess grow up, just like her child. You know, parents can do anything for their children. thing."

When Elizabeth heard the words, she looked at Xiao Peng with a strange look in her eyes, as if she didn't expect him to say such a thing.

"Then what happened later?" Kuang Tianyou was also aroused by Xiao Peng, and asked.

"Later, the housekeeper discovered that the countess had become obsessed with the smell of blood, and in order to keep herself young and beautiful when she waited for the man she loved, she began to bathe in the blood of young girls. Before taking a bath, she drank At least half a liter of blood, which she calls an 'internal wash'."

"When she takes a bath, she must kill at least two young girls. In order to supply the blood the countess needs, the housekeeper is constantly looking for young and beautiful girls for when the countess needs it."

"After that, the countess would often hold balls in her old castle, inviting gentlemen from various countries, in order to hope to see her lover again one day. Because she often bathes in blood, she always has a strong Bloody smell."

"But she never used any perfume to cover up, let it be natural, the combination of beautiful appearance and bloody smell produced an indescribable charm, which made countless young nobles fall for it. The earl's fame spread far and wide across the European continent, and even the French Emperor Louis XIV fell under his pomegranate skirt."

"However, it is a pity that the countess has been waiting for 50 years and has maintained her young and beautiful appearance, but she still has not waited for the man she has thought about and loved all her life."

"In 50 years, she killed more than 800 girls in total, and all the corpses were buried under her private bathroom. This was also the idea of ​​the housekeeper when she was alive, because she told the countess that the souls of girls can exorcise Get old and dull."

"Later, when the Great Revolution broke out, the angry crowd captured the young and beautiful Countess, who was almost 70 years old, and in the fury of the crowd, they burned her alive in her own bathroom and sealed her The ancient castle, from now on, the Countess, who was so gorgeous in the world, disappeared."

"No one knows who that mysterious man is. Some say it's Satan, some say it's a wizard, and some speculate that he's already dead, or that there's no such person at all. It's just a fantasy made by the Countess herself. Who knows? ! That's the legend of the Bloody Mary."

After talking about the legend of Bloody Mary, Xiao Peng sighed deeply, and said lightly: "I don't know what the countess was thinking when she died. Did she ever blame that man?"
