Chapter 2566 The Embarrassment of the Vampire Clan
2566
"You guessed it right." Xu Taiping put down the paper with a smile.
"How could you be Xu Long? How could you be, you are so different!" Vanessa said excitedly, as if she still couldn't accept the fact that Xu Taiping was Xu Long.
"The gap is just big, otherwise we would have been recognized long ago." Xu Taiping said with a smile.
"Oh my god... No wonder I think your fighting style is almost exactly the same as Xu Long's. It turns out that you are the same person. I never noticed it. Oh my god." Vanessa said excitedly.
"To be honest, I also have a question to ask you!" Xu Taiping said.
"What's the problem?" Vanessa asked.
"Why did you regard me as your target that day? What did you want to do that day?" Xu Taiping asked.
"This..." Vanessa hesitated for a moment, then said, "Do you really want to know?"
"Of course, otherwise why would I ask? However, if you think there is something secret, then there is no need to answer." Xu Taiping said.
"If you had asked me before, I would definitely not have said it, but now that we are companions, you have saved me, and you are still Xu Long, then it is not impossible to tell you. This is actually related to a very disturbing person. An embarrassing fact," Vanessa said.
"What facts?" Xu Taiping asked.
"Money." Vanessa said with an embarrassed look.
"Money?" Xu Taiping looked at Vanessa in surprise. He had actually guessed a lot before, but he really didn't guess about the money.
"The economic situation of our vampire family has always been bad because it is difficult for us to integrate into society. We are a family unit. All the expenses of the family are arranged by the leader, my father. However, few of us go out to work, so As a result, our economic conditions have not been very good. In order to allow our people to live a better life, the strong men in our tribe will set out to the outside world every once in a while, and then kidnap one or two very rich people. Extort a sum of money, and then return to the tribe with the money, so that the tribe can live a better life for a period of time. After the money is spent, we will go out to kidnap someone, and then extort a sum of money, and so on. ..." Vanessa said.
"Uh... you actually work part-time as kidnappers?" Xu Taiping asked with a strange expression.
"It's all forced by life." Vanessa shook her head helplessly and said, "There are so many people in our tribe, and the daily expenses are a huge amount. As you can see, our tribe lives in ordinary wooden houses. This is not because we want to be close to nature, but because we have no money. There are thousands of people in our entire family. Everyone must have their own place to live. Everyone must have animal blood to improve themselves, and their daily consumption must be at least More than 100,000 U.S. dollars, which is close to 40 million U.S. dollars in a year. Apart from kidnapping, there is no other way for us to make so much money in a year. But don’t worry, we only conduct limited screening when we start. For example, my target this time is a wealthy businessman, but behind the scenes he is actually a human trafficker. He has sold many people from Africa to Europe and made a lot of money, so we chose him."
"Why don't the vampires go out to do things?" Xu Taiping asked.
"Only a small number of people in the Vampire Clan are willing to go out and do things, but these people are not in our country, because people in our country can easily recognize us and are more wary of us, so they all go to some distant countries. They can't do jobs that are too conspicuous, because that will also attract the attention of others. They can only become workers at the bottom of society, earning low wages, which can only support themselves... Our blood clan's life is not easy, at least under Zhao Tiezhu It was like this when I was here. Therefore, after Zhao Tiezhu left, many radicals appeared in our vampire clan. What these people actually want is very simple, that is, to live a better life. For our vampire clan, if we want to live a better life, The way to a better life is actually very simple, that is to plunder! If you hadn't come, maybe our vampire family would have become a real bandit family!" Vanessa said seriously.
"I thought the vampires were just like the vampires on TV. Everyone lived an extremely noble aristocratic life!" Xu Taiping said.
"Those are all movies, and they are talking about vampires, not our vampires. Our vampires are not vampires. Vampires make a living by sucking blood, but we can eat normally. Blood is just a way for us to replenish energy, and it is also a way for us to become stronger. Plant tools," Vanessa said.
"Understood!" Xu Taiping nodded.
"Actually, I'm very grateful to you." Vanessa looked at Xu Taiping and said, "You sent us a huge amount of cash, enough for us to live a leisurely life for many years. You also gave us land and supplies. , in this case, we will no longer have to kidnap others, and it is always better to be a positive character than a villain."
"To fundamentally solve the problem of the vampires, it is actually very simple. It is a sense of identity. If the whole society can identify with the vampires, then the vampires can integrate into the lives of ordinary people normally and be able to support themselves without the need for others. Help, and to gain a sense of recognition, you need to contribute to this society. The more you pay, let more people see it, and everyone will naturally identify with you, just like me. I used to be a killer, which made people scared. As a killer, I later retired and became a security guard. I did many things. It was these things that made people around me identify with me. Therefore, it was not until later that my identity as a killer was exposed, but There are still many people who choose to stand by my side and support me, and so do you vampires. I hope that one day, vampires will no longer hide, and they can openly tell others that they are vampires, and others will not. Therefore, we are afraid of them." Xu Taiping said seriously.
When Vanessa heard Xu Taiping's words, her beautiful big eyes looked straight at Xu Taiping, and Xu Taiping could even see her own reflection in the eyes.
"Do you really think so?" Vanessa asked.
"Of course, because I am an alien myself, I also hope that you, as aliens, and even other people in the third world can completely integrate into this world. There is no distinction between high and low. Everyone is human. This is what I That’s the purpose of joining the Guardian Alliance,” Xu Taiping said.
"Don't you think our vampires are scary? We feed on blood," Vanessa said.
"How could it be? As long as it's not human blood, it's fine. I think back then, I also had a special hobby for blood. As long as I smell the smell of blood, I can track the other person even if they are several kilometers away. To be honest, I have to say In terms of blood talent, maybe you vampires are not as good as me." Xu Taiping said with a smile.
"What did you say? You can track the smell of blood?" Vanessa asked in surprise.
"Of course, if you leave a drop of your blood here, even if you are one kilometer away, I can still smell your residual scent along the way and catch up with you!" Xu Taiping said.
"How is this possible... Even we vampires can't do this? We vampires are naturally sensitive to blood, just like sharks, but our sense of smell range is only one or two hundred meters away... How can you... This is impossible Right?" Vanessa shook her head in disbelief.
"Would you like to give it a try?" Xu Taiping asked.
"Try it!" Vanessa nodded, then raised her hand and put it in her mouth and bit it hard.
Blood flowed from her arm. Afterwards, Vanessa walked up to Xu Taiping and put her arm in front of Xu Taiping.
Xu Taiping leaned in front of Vanessa's arm and smelled it.
A strong smell of blood penetrated directly into Xu Taiping's nose.
This smell of blood was much stronger than the smell of anyone's blood that Xu Taiping had seen before. The blood of the blood tyrants back then was incomparable with this.
"Are you okay?" Vanessa asked.
"Okay!" Xu Taiping nodded.
"Then I'm leaving. I don't believe you can find me!" Vanessa said, turned and walked out of Xu Taiping's room.
Xu Taiping sat on the sofa with his eyes closed.
The smell of Vanessa's blood still remained in Xu Taiping's nasal cavity, strong and not dissipated at all.
After about ten minutes, Xu Taiping stood up.
The smell of Vanessa's blood in the air had become extremely thin, but Xu Taiping could still smell the smell of Vanessa's blood accurately, a smell that belonged specifically to Vanessa.
Xu Taiping walked out of the room and walked forward looking for the smell.
Xu Taiping left the hotel and came to the street.
People and cars were coming and going on the street, emitting various complex smells. However, these complex smells did not disturb Xu Taiping. Xu Taiping continued to walk forward, passing through the lively streets. , passed through a cake shop where cakes were being baked, and passed through a slaughterhouse full of blood.
Finally, Xu Taiping passed through most of the city and arrived at the seaside.
This is a windless zone, without any wind, and there is a slight salty smell in the air.
It was night and the beach was deserted.
Xu Taiping walked along the coast and came to the bottom of a cliff.
Here, Xu Taiping saw Vanessa.
Vanessa was sitting on the beach, looking at the calm ocean filled with ice in the distance.
Xu Taiping walked to Vanessa and sat down, then grabbed Vanessa's arm and placed a piece of Bondi on the wound on Vanessa's arm.
Vanessa looked at the wound on her arm, then turned to look at Xu Taiping.
"I found you." Xu Taiping said.
"Incredible," Vanessa said, shaking her head.
"So, you vampires are not the only ones in this world who are aliens, there are many people who are just as different as you." Xu Taiping said with a smile.
"I want to have a fight with you," Vanessa said.
"We haven't recovered yet, so there's no need to fight," Xu Taiping said.
"I'm not talking about that kind of fight... Do you still remember what you said after fighting me?" Vanessa asked.
"What words?" Xu Taiping asked.
Vanessa showed a smile that turned everyone upside down, then turned around and pinned Xu Taiping underneath her.
The waves wash up on the shore and the beautiful evenings with clear sunshine are mesmerizing.
