I Was Once a Legend
Chapter 234 ○
"What's this?" Ren Heming moved closer together, frowning, and feeling the eerie gloom coming from below.The charms used for body protection emit a faint heat, and there is a tendency to intensify. The inexplicable sweet smell rises up like something has been rotten for a long time. Ren Heming covered his nose in disgust and said: "This place is not right, there are evil spirits. Stayed."
The horse seemed to feel something, irritatingly snorting, twitching its hoof backwards, the reins could not be pulled.Dong Zheng naturally felt bad too. He stepped back two steps away from the hole and said, "Let's leave quickly. I always feel that something bad will happen."
Ren Heming struggled to hold the horse he wanted to run away, and expressed his opinions with actual actions. The two quickly moved away from the dark painted hole, leaving the unknown fear under the steps.
Soon the two left the hole behind them, and it was not a way to keep walking on the path in the forest. They were the first to find the way that the caravan would normally take.This is an official route, and there are often convoys between the two countries passing by. The rut marks are very obvious on the land. Although the forests and shrubs are not visible on both sides, the speed of walking along the road is much faster. .
Even though he had left, Dong Zheng still had that cave in his mind. Do you regret not seeing it?After all, in the box, many clues are hidden in danger.
But he has learned not to regret the decision he made, but this is the test given by the choas library. Be careful not to be wrong.
This place is the border with Dashi. Dashi, the Islamic empire established by the Arabs in the Middle Ages, has existed as a neighbor for a long time.
The rune paper showed that the evil spirits fled all the way to the direction of the big food. The two quickly chased with whip. The noon sun gradually tilted from the highest point of the sky toward the west. This walked for about half an hour. sound.
Smoke and dust rose from the end of the road, and soon the figure of the team appeared. Dong Zheng and Ren Heming slowed down, and the two people met on the official road.
Ren Heming crossed the horse in the middle of the road, and Dong Zheng also pulled the reins to stop the horse.
Seeing the two dressed in Jinyiwei uniforms with embroidered spring swords on the waist, the team stopped slowly, headed by a black man with a headscarf. He got out of the car, clenched fist with Ren Heming, and asked carefully with a bit of courtesy: " Officer, what are you doing?"
"Buy something." Ren Heming took a few pieces of broken silver from his pocket and threw it to the man. "We want water and dry food."
"Okay, please ask the two officials here." After paying the money, it was natural to say that everything was easy to handle. The man returned to the team with a smile on his face. Ren Heming and Dong Zheng also dismounted to keep up, and there were a lot of eyebrows in the team. The Persians with a deep outline can speak fluent Chinese.
The man brought them some dry food that was easy to carry and asked, "Are you going to eat over there?"
"Yes." Dong Zheng also intends to communicate with them. Talking with npc is one of the best ways to obtain clues and information. He looked at the direction of the team and said, "Where did you come from?"
"Yes, the situation there is not very good. If it is not necessary, the two officials should try not to go." The man looked serious. "There was a serious plague in the village on the official route. We passed by. Many people have died, they can't find a cure, they feel that what they did angered the devil, and they were forced to sacrifice a female doll."
Ren Heming also joined the conversation: "Sacrifice?"
"The plague came so suddenly that they couldn't think of any other reason than angering the devil." The man was afraid, "The whole village was filled with the stench of the dead when we passed, and there was no other movement besides crying, Even the crow, the most sensitive to death, was reluctant to eat the bodies. We dared not go to see what was going on. We chatted with a healthy man in the village and asked to leave."
Dong Zheng: "Did you listen to what the girl gave to the devil?"
"Yes." Give Ren Heming the packed dry food, and the man sincerely said to Dong Zheng, "I don't have any culture, I can't tell how evil the village looks like. Anyway, I know that the place is definitely not right. You should try to avoid it. Go there."
Dong Zheng and Ren Heming glanced at each other, Ren Heming nodded and said, "I know, thank you for reminding, we will be careful, and we are still on business, so don't pass it.
Saying goodbye to the team, the two groups of people moved in opposite directions. Dong Zheng rode on the horse and said to Ren Heming: "How do you feel?"
"I don't know." Ren Heming looked at the direction of the big food ahead and turned his head to look at Dong Zheng. "No matter what, we have to catch the evil spirit, and we must catch up with it before it escapes to the big food, so we can No need to go to the village where the plague broke out."
The main line mission of hunting down evil spirits will certainly not change. Dong Zheng knows this in his heart. He looked back, and the trail of the convoy had disappeared at the end of the road in the forest.
They passed by the village where the plague broke out and communicated with the people in the village. They did not know how the disease was spread. This always gave Dong Zheng a bad feeling.
But it should not have much to do with him.Dong Zheng looked back forward, and the two rode away for about Mo Yixiang's time, and met a fork in the road.
The road is divided into two, the one on the left winds into the valley far away, and the one on the right is spacious and unobstructed, which is the direction of the official road.
Is it to follow the caravan's advice not to go to the village where the plague spreads, around the path on the left, or follow the original plan, follow the faster official route to pursue?
Ren Heming: "Lao Qi, which way?"
Dong Zheng looked at both sides, he decided:
