Volume 1 Otherworldly Rhapsody Chapter 11 Departure Again

"Break the Sky!" Jack pulled out his sword muscles and instantly swelled, unleashing his sword skills. Jack's body pierced the sky with incomparable might, and a black light collided with the exit in an instant.

"Click~Click~"

Tiny cracks instantly filled the location of the door, and then all of them shattered to the ground.

Jack stood in the doorway and yelled, "Quick, Rod, quick. ”

Rod's feet added a little more strength again, and the blackbird behind him was about to touch Rod's heel, and a large piece of black pressure was like an abyss. Rod leapt to his feet, and at this last bit of distance, pounced towards the exit.

Holding his two hands in mid-air, Rhodes felt a huge force coming from Jack's hand, as if lifting him out of the mire, dragging Rhodes out of the abyss. At the moment when Rodra went out, the blood-colored light of the stone gate on the back hillside turned black, faded, and then disappeared without a trace......

The dark red sky was gone, replaced by bright and dazzling sunlight. Rod couldn't help but reach out to cover his eyes, and for a moment he couldn't adjust to the sudden change of light. There were crisp bird chirpings and heavy gasps of Jack and himself.

"Finally...... Finally escaped!!" Rod sat down on the ground, his heart pounding, this time he was really close to life, in fact, it was really only him and Jack who came out.

"This is the Dead Realm Manor in the abyss and reality......" Jack muttered in a low voice, wiped the sweat from his face, turned his head and said to Rod, "Rod, I have lived in it for ten days!"

"What! You've only been gone for a few hours!" Rhodes incredulously, "Why are you?"

"I know you want to ask a lot of things, and I'm telling you slowly now. Jack said.

"Ten days ago, you may have noticed that I had been a little uncomfortable. Jack said, "Actually, the sin marks on my hands reacted during that time. During that time, there were many people in the outside world, and I couldn't show it, and since Uncle Iverson portrayed the healing secret pattern for me, the sin pattern had never appeared in this situation. It wasn't until dawn that I could clearly feel the door calling to me. ”

Jack looked at the stone and continued.

"Sin Tattoo guided, no, it should have been in control of me, and walked inside. The danger here is far beyond my imagination, in a place you have not been, there is a will left by your predecessors, telling me about this strange place, and the speed of time in this place is different from the outside world, I relied on the warnings of my predecessors, so difficult to survive. I didn't know until ten days later that you had come in, the door had been opened by you, and I knew I could get out, so I came to you. ”

Jack paused: "But there are also things to be thankful for, in the past ten days inside, I found that the sin tattoo on my hand is absorbing the energy inside, which has greatly improved my strength." And, do you remember the healing of your wounds?"

"Well, I remember, yes, it's the white flower?" asked Rod.

"Yes, I don't know what that kind of cherished plant is called, in short, no matter how many injuries are in it, eat one, you can heal, but unfortunately the storage time is too short and too short, just pick it will wither and fail. Jack sighed, "It would be nice if I could bring it out." ”

Rod glanced at Shimen, his face solemn.

"If I could, I would never want to go into this place again. ”

Following the road in the village, Jack and Rhodes quickly returned to their previous hotel.

The village was silent, and the houses on either side were silent.

There was a faint white mist floating in the air. Not even the sunlight could dispel the fog.

The two of them walked slowly along the path in the middle of the village, scanning left and right. The ground was wet with melted snow and dirty.

The surrounding wooden houses are so quiet that you can't hear a sound at all.

Flutter flutter flutter ......

With the sound of flapping wings, a black crow flew from the roof on the right, perched on the eaves, and its red eyes looked at Rod and Jack with wooden eyes.

The crow didn't call, but just stood quietly on the eaves, quietly.

The two felt that something was wrong with the village, why was it so quiet.

Opening the door of the outer courtyard of the hotel, the sound of the fence door opening was a little harsh, Rod frowned and moved lightly, and walked in with Jack.

Behind the yard, the three carriages were still there, and a total of six horses had fainted to the ground, apparently sleeping soundly. On the side of one of the carriages, Blackbeard and a few guards were leaning on the carriage and sleeping soundly.

Jack walked over, crouched down, and shook Blackbeard's head.

"Hey, Blackbeard, wake up, wake up. Rod shook vigorously as he reached out his fingers and poked between Blackbeard's nose.

"Something is wrong. "Rod is a little hairy in his heart, this shouldn't be like this," Blackbeard was obviously so anxious after Jack's disappearance, how could he have the leisure to sleep. ”

At this time, Blackbeard suddenly opened his eyes, echoed with a "hmm", and replied in a confused voice. "Jack...... Why are you here? Are you up yet?"

!!!

???

"What are we going to do at dawn today, do you remember? Blackbeard. Rod asked suddenly.

"At dawn today, I didn't do anything, I've been sleeping, I was too tired to watch the carriage last night, I fell asleep, but well~" Blackbeard glanced inside the carriage, "The things are intact and not stolen." ”

Rod and Jack glanced at each other and saw each other's alert eyes.

"Still something isn't right, aren't we coming out?" asked Rod in a low voice.

"No way, my sin tattoo doesn't absorb any more power, so we should be in the real world now. Jack replied.

"The owner of this place is asleep, and so are the people around him, so you get ready, and we'll get out of here at once. This place is not suitable for a long stay. Jack hurriedly commanded.

Rod shook his head, no more thought. While Blackbeard and the guards went to prepare something, he walked out of the courtyard and walked to a wooden house on the left, ready to see what was going on inside. Ask two local residents about the situation.

Walking outside, the building next to it is a small wooden two-storey building surrounded by a wooden fence. The entire house is built of mahogany. It looks like it's been a long time coming, and it's a little shabby.

The fence gate is locked. Rhodes rolled over, easily jumped over the half-man-high fence, and tumbled into the yard.

The yard is full of weeds. It seems that the owner doesn't take care of it very often.

Rod walked slowly to the door, reached out and pressed against the red wooden door, and gently pushed it.

Syllable!

After a crisp sound, the door slowly opened.

As soon as the mahogany door opened, a choking smell of dust suddenly hit my face.

"Ahem!"

Rod couldn't help but cough twice. With a flick of his finger, he triggered a windswept magic array, blowing a large amount of dust out of the door.

Waiting for the dust to almost clear, Rod walked into the room.

"It's ...... What's going on?" he froze as soon as he entered the room.

The whole house was empty, there was nothing, no one but neat wooden tables and chairs. Brown bows and arrows hung on the walls, and the fireplace mouth was covered with thick cobwebs.

Rod walked into the house slowly, and stepped on a dead branch that fell to the ground.

Rod's face suddenly became unusually ugly. Thinking of something, he turned and ran out of the house, and went to the surrounding houses one by one.

Half an hour later......

"What the hell is going on......" Rod broke out in a slight cold sweat on his forehead. Although his body has become hot due to exercise, his heart is cold.

All the houses!

It's all empty!

There were no people, no inhabitants, not even corpses, rats. Just an empty piece, except dust and dust.

"So where did the people I felt and saw when I entered the village?"

He stood in the middle of the village street, goosebumps breaking out all over his body. The surrounding white mist was hazy, and it seemed to be covered with a mysterious and strange atmosphere.

"Ha~" He took a deep breath, tried to prevent himself from loosening, and walked quickly in the direction of the hotel.

"Jack, Blackbeard!"

Rhodes pushed the fence open, ignoring the harsh voice, and walked into the courtyard and shouted, "Jack, Blackbeard, we must go now." ”

What about the villagers we met here three days ago? Obviously, what we have eaten and drunk for the past three days is real. And what about the innkeeper? Why are the other houses covered in a thick layer of dust, which is the dust that will accumulate for at least many years.

Rod's mind raced, and he felt more and more strange in his heart.

In the backyard, Blackbeard and the guards set the carriage ready, and Jack, Rod, and Blackbeard quickly drove away from the village, and before leaving, Rod set the entire village on fire.

Pulling the curtain, the cold wind blowing in front of him made Rod a little more sober and calmed down a lot.

Jack patted Rod on the back and comforted, "It's okay, we've left that ghost place." ”

Rhodes stared at the scenery outside the window in a daze, his head dizzy, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Stop!" shouted Rod, who had just looked out the window when he saw an old man by the lake who seemed to be fishing.

Rhodes felt that he should ask him something, or the uneasiness in his heart would never dissipate.

The carriage procession stopped, and Rhodes jumped out of the carriage and ran straight to the old man fisherman.

"I'm sorry, I want to ask, do you know anything about that nearby village?" asked Rhodes to the old man. "Why is the people in that little village gone?

"That village was empty more than 10 years ago. Why do you ask this?" the old man gave Rod a strange look.

"More than ten years ago?" Rod froze. "No, nothing, just asking. ”

"Well, the people of that small village were all killed by a man who went to this village more than ten years ago. It has been deserted ever since. I heard that the place on the hillside behind the village is very strange, and no one can get out. And the one who went in didn't come out either," the old man explained. "Also, the affairs of that village are not over yet, and the people in the surrounding mountains are reluctant to go near there, so you better not be alone. ”

"What do you mean, don't be alone?" Rod was stunned. I don't know why, he suddenly felt a chill in his heart, and the creepy feeling he felt when he was in the Dead Manor came back to his heart again.

I really can't do it, do you want to sleep with Jack at night?

Forget it, Rod dispelled his strange thoughts.

"Thank you for the reminder!" Rod reluctantly smiled, his eyes becoming more solemn.

Back in the carriage, Rhodes told Jack what the old man by the lake had to say.

"It's alright, we're already far away from that damn place, aren't we? Jack said.

Rod couldn't help but smile reluctantly, and the wheels of the carriage rolled over the snow, leaving a long rut, and drove off into the distance.

It's night, by the campfire.

Rhodes and his party sat around the fire, eating canned food.

"Huh?" Rod seemed to remember something, "Blackbeard, where did you buy these cans?"

"In that small village, I searched all over the village and no one was willing to sell anything to me, and in the end it was the red-robed man in the hotel who sold it to me, and moved it in his carriage in the backyard, which cost a lot of money. But this can is really good, and it would be better if there was wine. Blackbeard laughed.

"Whew~" Rod finally breathed a sigh of relief, at least it means that these cans are normal things.

There was a churn in his lower abdomen, and Rod got up, "I'll go to the bathroom." ”

He pulled out a torch and walked to a tree not far away, stuck the torch in the branch, and Rod unbuttoned his pants and began to drain the water.

The feeling of exhilaration, the nervous heart relaxed, and Rod lifted his pants and prepared to go back. At that moment, the torch flashed twice......

Suddenly, Rod froze.

Next to the trunk of the tree, stood a girl in red.

"Please, help me!" the girl cried. "I saw them again, and just now, no one believed me. Rod recognized the girl as the same girl who had been in the courtyard that day, the granddaughter of the old man Meco.

She looked a little crazy, crying incoherently, and her clothes were a little tattered.

"You came out alive?" asked Rod.

"Please!" the girl stared at Rod, her eyes unblinking, staring at her.

"What the hell are you talking about, where did you run to in the courtyard that day?" Rod already felt that something was wrong, and the girl was a little nervous.

"I ......" The girl was stunned, she still seemed to be wearing the clothes from the courtyard that day, the red bottom skirt, and a pair of hunting suit leather armor outside.

"Help me!" the girl cried, and approached him step by step.

"Answer my question!" Rhodes obviously felt that something was wrong, the appearance of the girl was too weird.

"Where have I been?Where have I been?" The girl was stunned, and repeated it several times, and the torch suddenly went out for a moment. Rod's eyes flickered, and the girl was gone.

"Damn!" Rod cursed, his head covered in cold sweat, and he walked away quickly, remembering what the old man had said. "Don't be alone!"

Rod swears that he won't be left alone until the weird encounter is gone, and even if he goes to the bathroom, he'll pull Jack!
