Two strangers came to the village that day, and one of them was him.
When he came, I just picked some Datura for Sister W from the back hill and met him at the entrance of the village with my bag on my back. As soon as he saw me, he came straight to me and said that he came from the north and passed through here. He wanted to ask about the natural scenery and customs around me and asked about a place to live.
When he spoke to me, I looked at him quietly, with short chestnut curls, a high nose and a dark green opal hanging on his chest. When he spoke to me, he was very polite and a little shy in the face of strange women, but he couldn't hide the confident light from his whole body.
That afternoon, at the deserted village entrance, I felt Cupid's arrow go through my chest.

I led him back to the cabin where I lived alone.
I showed him around the village for a few days. Finally, on a bright evening, I took him to the top of the back mountain.
He suddenly held me in his arms, and his warm breath blew in my ear. He said, I am a wanderer, but now my heart wants me to stay for you. Will you keep taking me in?
That night, I fell asleep peacefully in his breath.

However, the peaceful and beautiful days did not last long. Soon after, on a full moon night, the werewolf woke up and broke all the peace.
On that full moon night, I woke up from a nightmare and got a headache when I was distracted. In the moonlight, I vaguely saw his sleeping face. I rolled over gently, trying to get close to him, and then I was hugged by him.
This change is reflected in the morning after the full moon night-Mr. R, who lived in the east of the village and used to usury, was found dead at home, leaving traces like wolf claws on his bedroom window.
The old village chief read the ancient books and told everyone that there was a werewolf awakening in the village. They will turn into wolves every full moon night and kill the villagers. Only by finding a prophet recognized by God can they find werewolves and exile them.
Mr. R is not popular in the village, but the haze of fear brought by his death hangs over everyone's head. Facing the fear of death, will the "prophet" stand up regardless of his own safety?
I don't know. I can only hold his hand tightly.
Don't be afraid, we will live together. He said.
No one can stop us from being together. I added in my mind.

The second full moon night is coming, so we decided to go to the top of Houshan before dark.
The road to the top of the mountain goes through a cliff. The old man in the village said that there was a pair of lovers who were opposed by their families. Girls had better not go there to avoid bad things, but I never took it to heart.
Everyone fell asleep after dark.
However, I woke up from nightmares and headaches. The moonlight outside the window is still bright. The opal he has been wearing on his chest keeps shining.
He is so kind and devoted to me, but somehow I feel sorry for him.
During the day, the old hunter in the village was found dead. The old hunter once had a wife and a daughter, but I don't know where they went later. The old hunter shot a silver bullet with a shotgun before he died, killing the werewolf who attacked him. When they saw the werewolf's face, everyone couldn't help whispering-it was Mr. M's youngest son, a man who had left his elderly parents and village for a long time. How did he get back? How did he become a werewolf?
The prophet hasn't come forward yet.

On the night of the third full moon, the man who came to the village with him died wearing a suit of armor-he was a knight who died after killing two werewolves.
? When he learned of the knight's death, his face turned white. He hugged me and trembled, as if asking me, and as if talking to himself. He said that he protected the knight with the power of opal. Why did the knight still die?
The prophet finally stood up, wearing a purple gauze skirt and holding a crystal ball.
? I stared at her as she walked past all the villagers with a crystal ball. It is recognized that the most beautiful person in the village is Sister W, but the most beautiful eyes belong to me. Under my gaze, the prophet did not stop in front of me.
? We exiled another werewolf that day, but the moonlit crisis was obviously not over.

? Sister W's poison took the lives of the last two werewolves, but she died herself.
? I'm sad-she always took care of me when I lived alone in the village. But I can't help thinking of a problem. If her poison can kill werewolves, why does her so-called antidote kill the little granddaughter of the old village chief?
? Fortunately, the werewolf crisis is finally over. He and I, we survived together.
? Finger lock. He is a ranger, but I think he will stay for me, or I will leave with him.
postscript
This story is very troublesome to write, and I feel that neither writing nor logic can support what I want to express.
The theme of the story is inspired by Grandma Agatha's no one lives, which is a story in which an old judge designs a "game" to punish twelve people, including himself, who have committed crimes but escaped the punishment of the law. In the background of the werewolf killing story, I can only get the concept of "God".
Werewolves were chosen by God as werewolves because of their original sin. They have to endure the pain of becoming wolves every full moon night and kill people they know under the guidance of moonlight. The target who was killed under the guidance of moonlight also had "original sin"-Mr. R who died on the first full moon night was a usurer, a hunter abused his wife and daughter, and a witch once killed someone. ...
But there are two different people in the whole story. One is a knight. He died for his faith as a knight and for "justice" and died gloriously. There is also a "I". The reason why "I" became a wolf beauty was cursed by the lovers who died on the cliff, which is why "I" had headaches, nightmares and did something unconsciously on the full moon night. Another point is that "I" will not change into the shape of a wolf (this inspiration comes from all kinds of wolves in the game, and only Wolf Beauty is human), which is why the male guardian has never figured out the identity of "I".
Finally, talk about the love theme of this story-"You and I will be safe &; Sound. " In the werewolf killing game, if both ends of Cupid's lover chain are good people and werewolves, then they and Cupid are the third party, and only by removing the other two parties can they win.
However, I can't catch the follow-up of this story. Brother Guard is a northerner, born in a famous family, traveling abroad, and a noble child. Before being cursed, "I" was just an orphan girl in a remote village. Even if they live hand in hand, can they go hand in hand like THG's KP?
