Alien Knights

Chapter 23: Black Sheep

   "Friends from afar, are you lost?"

   A dry and hoarse voice came from the shadow of the tent.

   Turning his head towards the source of the sound, the monk saw a thin man in a black dovetail gown approaching him.

   The upper part of his face was hidden by the mask, and the lower part was pale without the slightest blood.

   Behind the masked man, a pair of beautiful girls with exactly the same looks raised a huge parasol with tassels to block all the light around them.

   took a short step back, and Todd looked at the person who spoke with caution: "Are you?"

The man's upper body bends slightly, his left hand presses his right chest, and he salutes: "Please forgive me for my rudeness. Humble is the leader of this little circus. I just heard your partner say that I want to look for it. Where is the black sheep?"

   took a half step back, the boy's doubts grew, he took a parasol in the middle of the night, claimed to be the head of the circus, and he wanted to show him the way?

   In the past life, it looks like those swindlers on the roadside selling fake drugs.

   The other side's wary behavior caused the man to spread his hands in embarrassment, then turned his side to the side, pointed to the largest tent in the middle of the circus, and said, "The'black sheep' you are looking for is there."

   Watching the two monks go further and further away, the man took out an exquisitely crafted silver file from his arms, carefully sharpened his nails, and muttered to himself: "Is the holy son blessed by the holy father..."

  It may not be clear from a distance. When he walked closer, Todd realized how big the tent in the middle of the circus was. Compared with the other tents used for performances, it was like a dwarf standing beside a giant.

   The admission ticket actually costs ten bronze stars. The price is already several times that of other tents. But the influx of spectators here is still endless, and the joy and expectation on everyone's face makes it seem that they really don't care about the price.

  Is the performance here so wonderful?

   With this question, Todd walked into the tent with Jerry.

   chose a hidden location near the corner, and the boy looked around, observing everything around him. The layout inside is somewhat similar to the circus tents of the previous life, but the facilities are more primitive. The seats are only temporary wooden platforms, and the fences are just haystacks with cheap materials. The only thing that makes people care about is the height of the tent. As a rough estimate, it is almost over twenty meters.

   As the audience entered, the fire in the tent slowly dimmed, and the curtains at the door were slowly lowered.

   What surprised Todd is that in the darkness, the familiar hoarse voice sounded again: "We are convinced that the gospel is coming, and the great moment is coming. The holy virgin holds the lantern, and the merciful Savior comes to the world!"

   One torch after another is lit in the air, illuminating the space above the head like daylight.

   As the light descended, a 13- or 4-year-old girl appeared on the ten-meter high platform.

   Because she is too far away, her appearance is not real. A long black hair rarely seen in the Middle Ages, tied into twists and fluttering in the wind; black and white lace-up tights showed a slender figure; the sequins and pendants on the clothes reflected the fire, gorgeous but not kitsch; The snow-white and small feet cross each other.

   "Black sheep! Black sheep!"

   The audience under the stage uttered cheers like a tsunami. Many men stood up and rushed to the fence, chanting words of praise loudly into the air.

   Todd shrank back and looked up at the girl in the air.

   It should be my own illusion... the other party seems to be looking intently at his position, and winks mischievously.

   Dense drums sounded from the depths of the tent.

   The girl called the black sheep untied the slipknot of a rope hanging from a high place, grabbed the tied wooden stick at one end of the rope, and jumped off the ten-meter high platform.

   Seeing that beautiful figure gliding through the air, Todd suddenly realized that a famous acrobatics show in his previous life appeared in his mind.

   "Flying trapeze".

   The rope swung from one end of the tent to the middle.

When the strength was old, the black sheep let go of the wooden stick, and took advantage of the remaining momentum to fly, and the graceful body first flipped in the air, then stretched out with its back down and face up, and after a short suspension in the air, The body began to fall.

   At this time, in the darkness, another rope tied with a wooden stick swung to the middle.

   But, the stick is almost five meters away from the black sheep's hand!

   The girl's body began to fall quickly to the ground, and the stick moved further and further away from her.

   Todd was so scared by this scene that he stood up straight, and yelled unconsciously, "Be careful!"

   The black sheep moved his fingers.

   The next second, the girl's body disappeared in the dark.

   Todd thought he was dazzled, rubbed his eyes, and his body was really gone!

   A huge cheer came from the audience, and the boy looked up. I don't know when, the black sheep grabbed the distant wooden stick above his head and swung to the other end of the tent. UU看书www.uukanshu.com bounced his body, and his feet landed on the high platform at the other end.

   The undecided monk returned to his seat, still replaying the scene in his mind.

   Next, as the knot swayed from side to side, the black sheep's figure appeared from time to time in the air. Sometimes it suddenly appeared high in the sky during the fall, and sometimes it teleported to the right when it was flipped to the left.

   Todd looked at the performance above his head, touched the bridge of his nose with his hands and fell into deep thought. The black sheep is a member of the alien species, there is no doubt about it, but this kind of alien ability similar to "flash" is really too weird. From the perspective of interaction with objects, it should not be phantoms or afterimages, but real instantaneous movements.

The performance of    acrobatics girl gradually came to an end, swinging and flashing again and again, her body came to the top of the tent.

With slender legs wrapped around the lower end of the winch, the black sheep, hanging upside down, looked at the audience the size of insects, with a smile on the corners of his mouth, relaxed his body, and straightened his head down from a height of 20 meters. It fell straight down.

   The girl who fell in the sky disappeared again after a few seconds.

   A small stone hit the wooden board beside Todd, and a faint fragrance floated into his nose. Turning his head to see, the girl fell by the monk's side like an angel falling from the sky.

   She gently lifted Todd's hood.

   The boy was finally able to see her face up close, with black hair and dark eyes, and light gray eyes. The bottom-shaped face of the beauty is painted with heavy colored materials. The corners of the mouth on half of the face are painted with red, and the corners of the face are slanted upwards, creating a smile; the cheeks of the half of the face are painted with a drop of tears in lead white, vivid and vivid. , Suppressing a sadness.

   The black sheep looked at the messy hair on the top of the other party's head, stretched out his white tender little hand, rubbed it, and smiled like a flower.
