Chapter Twenty-Three: The Horror of the Dharma

On the gallows of the Iconatny prison, where Lucia and several members of the wild wolves were tightly tied. Although the climate is pleasant and the scenery is beautiful, their hearts have sunk to the bottomless abyss, especially Lucia, who was not only drained of her spiritual power, but also drenched in a rain before being hanged, which can be regarded as extremely unlucky, at this time she had a little headache and the whole person was dizzy.www.biquge.info

The black sleeve was over her head, and the rope loop was already around her neck, just waiting for the sound of the mechanism activating, and then everything would return to dust. However, this time has not come for a long time. Lucia's head was covered so she couldn't see what was happening, but the soldiers weren't so lucky.

Just like the rain just now, the originally clear sky suddenly darkened, dark clouds covered the sun, and strong winds were blowing everywhere. There was a "boom", lightning flashed and thundered, but the rain did not fall as expected. They were already in a space where they couldn't see their fingers, and their eyes couldn't be opened because of the sand that was swept away by the wind, and people began to panic and run in all directions. However, the building, which was only a few hundred meters away, could not be found. People in all directions rushed into each other, shouting, cursing...... One after another.

The masked man hiding in a corner of the forest could no longer see the situation in the court, and all he could see was a black mist in his eyes. There was a sound in his ears, and he looked around sharply, and there was nothing in the silent forest, which was completely different from a dozen meters away, not only was there no dark clouds here, but not even a trace of wind could be felt. The branches and leaves of the trees also stopped swaying, and at some point, the frolicking of the animals also stopped abruptly, and only the sound of the trees continued to reach his ears.

After several collisions, the warden fell to the ground. He cursed and was just about to get up, when a bolt of lightning pierced the sky, and between the light and fire, he saw that the ground was covered with dense worms! It was a centipede-like multi-legged insect, but much larger than a centipede, not only agile, but also a sharp fang. At this moment, several of them were crawling up the warden's right arm lying on the ground, and they were about to climb up to their necks.

"Ahh Immediately afterward, several lightning bolts appeared in succession, and the dark world lit up, although only for a second or two, but it was enough for people to see what was like hell.

The masked man in the forest was no longer interested in observing the situation on the court. He turned his back against the tree and looked around in a panic. Tree hollows, grass, stones...... Nothing was out of the ordinary, but he could feel a chill approaching him. Finally, as the volume of the discordant voices in his ears increased, his pupils also dilated! In front of him, tree holes, grass, stones...... They all turned red, for the red liquid quickly came out of the ground and swept towards him like a flood. His scalp was numb, and he wanted to run, but his legs were like lead, motionless! A few drops of blood dripped on his mask, flowing down the arc of the mask, and the masked man who felt something strange raised his head, and collapsed to the ground in fright, and the branch he was leaning on turned bright red, and the blood flowed out of the branches and leaves, quickly staining the whole world red.

On the other hand, people see not only strange insects everywhere in the lightning, but also swarms of dense butterflies. The previous wind was the product of their wings. These butterflies, without their usual beauty, have black muscular bodies and black wings, and the patterns on the wings are skulls, and the beak is a sharp needle, huge and slender.

Screams rang out, and Lucia shook her head vigorously to shake the black cloth off her head. Although it was futile, if she really shook it off, I'm afraid she would regret it. Unable to guess what was happening in front of her, Lucia was full of doubts in her heart, she was only one step away from returning to the West, and now what kind of moth was coming out......? Someone came to save me, Rhodes?

Lucia was right, but she guessed the wrong person who came to save her.

At this time, Xuanyu was still sitting at the round table with Yeratylus, enjoying the play with great interest. Jeratylus, in particular, was so excited that he clapped his hands and laughed.

"What did they see?" Xuanyu looked at all the chaotic people in front of him, in his eyes, there were no strange insects, no ghost butterflies, no bleeding trees, just clear skies, and a group of yelling madmen.

"Who knows?" said Jeratylos, standing up, "there are always things in the human heart that are afraid, and I just visualize them. He put away the already empty teapot and plate, "How's it going, how do my refreshments taste?"

"The taste is slightly heavier. ”

Xuanyu's words made Yeratylos laugh again, and he picked up the plate: "If you want to save her but don't want to reveal your identity, now is a good opportunity." ”

Hearing this, Xuanyu also stood up, and a trace of doubt climbed into the corner of his eyes: "Finally, I want to know, why are you trapped here? What has happened to you all these years?"

Still with the same wry smile as before, Jeratylos shook his head: "When did you become so nosy...... I don't ask about you, and I can't tell you anything about me right now. ”

"Okay, it's a long time coming. Just as Jeratylus was reluctant to ask about Xuanyu's relationship with Lucia, Xuanyu didn't like to force each other. After saying goodbye, the halo spread, and both the round table and the chairs, along with the tea set in Jeratylos' hand, disappeared with him into the depths of the forest, leaving only a little starlight and a faint scent of tea in the air.

Looking at the field again, it was still some time before those people woke up. Xuanyu walked out of the forest unhurriedly, bypassing the madmen and going straight to Lucia's gallows.

Having given up the idea of getting rid of the black cloth cover, Lucia at this time can only resign herself to fate, no matter what happens outside, it will not be worse, she comforted herself in her heart. Xuanyu walked into Lucia, the first time he had been with her so closely, and he hesitated slightly. Although Lucia couldn't see Xuanyu standing in front of her, she could feel the existence of an aura, so familiar, and so unfamiliar, like a dream, and a strange symbol appeared in her mind again, what's going on? Before she could think about it, the mask on her head was taken off, and the moment she saw Xuanyu, for some reason, she had an urge to cry, and it was difficult for herself.
