Give Me the Name of God

Chapter 2 The Valley of Resentment

Manda ran aimlessly in the dark, sweat sticking to the wound on her thigh, and every step she ran was accompanied by severe pain.

A dog barking came from behind, it was Sadina's hound, and a chill from memory made the exhausted Manda wake up in an instant.

The scene of the original owner being bitten by several vicious dogs at the same time appeared in his mind. He heard the helpless cry of the original owner and Sadina's excited laughter.

Manda, the illegitimate son of Baron Rougeon Cloudsay, a bastard unworthy of a surname.

The rules of this world are different from what he imagined. In the ancient eastern country, although the illegitimate son of a nobleman cannot have the same status as the legitimate son, he can at least live a life of luxury and good food, but he lives like an animal. Twelve years of life have passed under the torture of my brother and sister.

You can't be caught by them, otherwise you won't even have the chance to be an animal.

After passing through the long houses of the farmers, the wheat fields, and the temple of wine that was about to be demolished, Manda plunged into the forest.

There had just been a heavy rain, and the ground was very muddy. After trekking hard for a long time, Manda tripped over a overgrown tree root and fell to the ground.

This fell badly, his face directly hit the stone, the dizzy Manda almost passed out, but fortunately his front teeth accidentally bit his tongue, the severe pain and the smell of blood in his mouth woke him up come over.

The barking of the dog was getting closer and closer, and the little torches appeared in the forest, and they caught up.

Without a moment's delay, Manda struggled to get up, and staggered to the end of the forest.

Outside the forest is a canyon, and the canyon is shrouded in mist, making it impossible to see what's going on inside.

Manda wanted to go forward, but he was a little scared. A voice in the memory of the original owner kept reminding him: "I can't go there, and I can never enter the Valley of Resentment."

This voice came from the original owner's mother. His mother died two years ago. This should be the reappearance of a certain memory.

The Valley of Resentment, the forbidden place of the Cloud Desai family, is also the place where the baron is executed.

As a lord of a land, Baron Lugeon Cloud Desai instituted many lynchings. According to the laws of the kingdom, the lord has the right to punish the people in the territory, but he cannot easily deprive them of their lives.

However, the baron had executed many citizens in private, because his family had always retained a mysterious method of execution, which was to send people into the Valley of Resentment.

No one, including the baron himself, knew what existed in this valley, only that no one who entered the valley could come out alive.

They drove the "dead prisoners" into the valley, garrisoned them for a while, and then left, with no fear that the prisoners would escape.

A few days later, the prisoners' bones will be placed at the mouth of the valley, as if they have been eaten, clean and without any flesh.

Manda was still lingering at the mouth of the valley, but the baron and his servants had already chased him. A large torch lit Manda blindly, reminding him of the fear brought to him by the branding iron.

"You bastard!" Baroness Atiya stood behind the baron, pointing at Manda and cursed, "I forgive you, I let you live to this day, what have you done to my child!"

"You shameless crazy woman, why don't you ask what your child did to me?" Manda cursed back.

Atiyah roared, "I'm going to skin you alive!"

"You should come here!" If there is a hostage, Manda can delay a little time.

The baron was still calm, he took two steps forward, stared at Manda for a while, and said softly: "Come back, my child, everything is over, I will not punish you, I know this is not yours wrong."

What warm words, Manda was almost moved to tears.

In memory, although his father was a little cold, at least he didn't use violence against the poor child.

Just follow his father home like this, as if nothing happened, what a perfect ending for a twelve-year-old boy.

It's a pity that the one in front of the baron is not an ignorant teenager, but a lunatic from the Jurassic period in his twelve-year-old body.

There was no violence, but there was also no shelter, and the baron turned a blind eye to what happened to Manda until the poor boy was tortured to death.

Looking at the large area of ​​torches in front of him, in order to hunt down a child, the baron dispatched more than forty servants. He is not much different from those demons, except that his hands are not stained with blood.

You can't have any illusions about demons, only lunatics can deal with them. But now there are too many demons, the lunatic can only take a step back temporarily.

Manda looked back at the canyon and moved back quietly. Lu Geang said loudly: "Don't do anything stupid, you have no way out. Entering the canyon is equivalent to entering hell!"

"You're pretty smart! Backing up is hell!" Manda laughed suddenly.

The baron looked at Manda in surprise, how dare this cowardly fool talk to him like that? He never even faced up to his own courage.

"Come back quickly, while I still have the last bit of patience, you still have a chance to survive!" the baron gritted his teeth, "If you don't believe me, you can take a step back and try!"

"I won't back down, not even a single step!" Manda also clenched her teeth, her eyes fixed on the Baron.

The baron was stunned, and put his hand on the hilt of his sword. He has fought in battle, which is the performance of a trapped beast. Manda may rush over at any time.

The servants around him raised sticks, hoes and various weapons.

Seeing this, Manda smiled contemptuously and said, "It's impossible to retreat, so I decided to walk in with my head held high!"

Manda suddenly turned around and rushed all the way into the canyon. The baron was stunned on the spot, and the people around him looked at each other in blank dismay. After all, he didn't have the courage to catch up.

"He's crazy, he must be crazy." The baron shook his head helplessly.

"Just like his mother, he is a shameless bastard! When I see his corpse, I will smash every bone of him!" The lady kept cursing, but she didn't dare to take a step forward.

Walking into the valley, it was like walking into another world. The Baroness's scolding stopped abruptly, replaced by the whistling wind and strange birdsong.

Manda trudged through the sand and gravel for a long time, but no one came after him. He sat on the ground with his back against a bluestone, and began to pant heavily.

He found a stone from the ground and wrote four lines on the ground in Chinese.

Pros: Still alive.

Cons: Don't know how long it will last.

Long-term goal: to survive.

Current goal: Get out of this valley.

It is his habit to write down important things, even in the Jurassic, so that he knows what he should do.

Thick fog shrouded all around, and the surrounding visibility did not exceed three meters. Being in the canyon, Manda still knew nothing about the canyon.

Are there any man-eating beasts here? Or are there blood-drinking ghosts? Or maybe the yin veins of the Cloud Desai family live here, doing some dirty work for them?

Maybe there is nothing here, but because this place is too easy to get lost, people are trapped in it and cannot get out, and eventually die of hunger.

Thinking of starvation, Manda was locked up in a warehouse and tortured all day without eating a single bite.

Worse than hunger was thirst. His throat was already on fire, and his mouth felt like he had swallowed bitter salt. It was salty and sticky, and his saliva felt thicker than blood.

Manda stretched out a finger, pointed to a stone, and said silently; "Become a bowl of water, become a bowl of water..."

After reading ninety-nine and eighty-one times, the stone is still the same stone.

The omnipotent golden finger was able to cut the rope before, why doesn't it work now? Is it the wrong way?

"Turn into gold."

"Become a roast chicken."

"Turn into a bowl of rice."

"It's fine to become anything, as long as it's not a stone..."

He tried it against the stone dozens of times, gnawed twice in the middle, ate a mouthful of mud, and accidentally broke a tooth, but there was nothing else to gain.

"It's broken, it's broken anyway, and it's loosened anyway."

After throwing a stone, Manda broke off a weed at random. After trying the same thing dozens of times, Manda was sure that her golden finger did not have the ability to change.

Didn't Guicha promise to give him all the golden fingers? Why can't even the most basic functions be realized? Could it be that there is a misunderstanding here?

Thinking about the broken rope before, Manda decided to do an experiment, put the weed between the index finger and middle finger, imitating the way of scissors, concentrated and pinched it hard, the weed immediately broke into two pieces.

Misunderstanding, big misunderstanding.

Manda tried it a few times and was able to cut into chunks, strips, and slices. The weeds were chopped all over the ground, which fully verified the function of the golden finger.

Fingers that can turn into sharp metal, this is Guicha's understanding of gold fingers.

And what do all the gold fingers mean?

Manda found another weed and tried it. Every finger gap has the same function, and the left and right hands are extremely sharp.

what is this? Wolverine or Scissorhands?

I didn't let go of any of the ten fingers. Can I still wash my face in the future? Can you still tickle? How to deal with such important things as ear picking and booger picking? Is the girl with five fingers very close too? Is there any happiness in life?

You shouldn't be so greedy, you shouldn't be talking nonsense with ghosts, you should speak clearly, there are countless gold fingers in the novel, which one is better than this one!

In the midst of annoyance, the sound of water suddenly reached his ears.

have water! Yes, it is indeed water!

Manda got up excitedly, forgot Goldfinger for a moment, and ran all the way to the sound of water.

Manda's ears were good, and he found the source of water within a short distance. It was a small stream flowing down from the mountain, converging into a pool in the low-lying part of the valley.

Without even thinking about it, Manda plunged into the pool. While sucking, the sweet clear water poured from her toes to her hair.

Resurrected, completely revived this time, as long as I can find something to eat...

Manda was startled, and there seemed to be a sound behind him, the sound of limbs scratching the weeds.

Small in size, but very flexible, it should be a beast like a leopard.

Coming out to attack while the prey is drinking water, this trick has been a favorite of carnivores since the Jurassic.

Manda was unhurried and continued to drink water.

Manda has also tried countless times to lure small carnivorous dinosaurs to take the bait by drinking water.

The other party saw the timing, jumped up and rushed towards Manda.

Manda dodged to the left, watched the opponent fall into the water, and then added a kick, and the opponent fell firmly into the pool.

It's not a leopard, it's smaller than expected, it looks like a hairless monkey.

Without thinking about it, Manda went up and kicked a few times. The opponent tried to resist, but he couldn't stand still in the slippery pool. After being hit hard one after another, he lay on his back among the sand and stones, losing the ability to resist.

Manda stepped on the opponent's chest, and saw the opponent's appearance clearly by the moonlight.

Except for a few sparse hairs on the head, the whole body is almost hairless, with a small head, thin neck, a pair of eyes about the size of an egg, gray skin, thin body, and slender limbs. Pass.

"Smeagol? Gollum?" Recalling that, in a classic movie in the previous life, there was a character very similar to him, except that he was wearing a fairly clean short robe.

"My name is not Sméagol! My name is Quinta!"

This monster can still talk!

Manda smiled and said hello, "Hello, Kunta."

"Let go of me, you bloody bedbug!" Kunta's temper was not very good, he raised his head vigorously, trying to bite Manda's leg, but because of the angle, his two rows of jagged teeth were not enough. less than.

"Let go of me quickly! You stupid scum! I swear by Typhon's name, I will eat up your flesh and blood, and I will eat up your soul!"

Who is Typhon? I seem to have heard it somewhere.

This question is not important, Manda leaned over, looked at Kunta with a smile and said, "Do you have anything to eat?"

Kunta was taken aback, blinking his egg-sized eyes and asked in surprise, "What, what to eat?"

"Anything is fine, food, I need food."

"I, I have, of course I have, but it's not on me, there is a lot of food in my house," Kunta continued to blink, "Let me go, I will give you food, I will never lie to you! I I swear by Typhon's name!"

He shouldn't have lied, at least the first part of the sentence is true, his clothes are very close-fitting, there is no place to hide food at all.

"You're embarrassing me." Manda sighed.

"There's nothing to worry about," Kunta said with a grin. "Let me go. I'll give you food and take you out of the canyon."

"That's not the point." Manda shook her head, then picked up a big stone from her feet, "The point is that you don't have much flesh on your body."
