Outside the window, the night is quiet.

Zhong Shenxiu's thoughts couldn't calm down for a long time.

"Su Daozhi's luck, is it bad or good? Actually psychic to such an existence, and tragically possessed...... This is the first generation of legendary earls of Hesting, who dared to come to expand their territory and expand their territory by taking advantage of the collapse of the Yanhan Empire, and was really successful! ”

Through the memory just now, he has a better understanding of that period of history.

"Fufeng Metropolitan Protectorate, originally within the scope of the Hestingbo Kingdom...... After the first Count established the nation, he did move to pray to a great being......"

"He is a true God from the infinite chaos...... Although it is unknown what the outcome of the sacrifice will be, it is clear that the being has no interest in sheltering the kingdom of Hestine and is watching its destruction...... But...... Whether or not there is any influence on the sacrificers, it is uncertain. ”

People don't care about ants, and they don't care about their prayers.

Maybe the ants just pray for power, but the people just throw a little crumb down.

It is also possible that the ant prayed for a little breadcrumb, but the man stepped on it and trampled the ant to death.

Zhong Shenxiu estimated that the same was true of the Earl of Hesting.

The true god did not bless his country, but it seemed to have an effect on him, making him immortal after death, turning into a resentful spirit that has endured to this day!

"Although...... It seems to have lost its mind. ”

"So it follows from this that the true God will unconsciously give back to the rituals, but he may not follow the prayers of the believers, and the power he gains will always pay a terrible price......

Zhong Shenxiu shook his head: "What am I calculating all this for?" I don't want to pray to the Great Being who comes from the infinite chaos...... Besides, I don't know His rituals. ”

The Count's memories were shattered, especially about rituals, runes, and even the name of that being.

And it comes with a feeling of extreme danger.

This let Zhong Shenxiu know that if he was bent on exploring the name and power of that god, the first earl in his body was the best example.

"Speaking of which...... Is this count really favored by the gods? Why do I feel that this is more of a curse? ”

Zhong Shenxiu continued to try Taoism.

This time, in the haze, he seemed to see a tall and thin figure.

Wearing a black woolen gown, two rows of gold buttons, and black deerskin boots......

The hands and feet are slender and the skin is pale......

The most important thing is...... No head!

Headless Earl!

Zhong Shenxiu didn't know that when he tried Taoism, strange changes also occurred in the room.

Tick! Tick!

Drops of dark red blood came out of nowhere, dripping down from the bed.

A faint mist began to spread around, even enveloping the small village.

Under the double moon and moon rings, the whole village was shrouded in a layer of mist, and the buildings became illusory and hazy, and there was not a sound at all.

If it was during the day, this would have caused panic, but at this time it is late at night.

In the hazy mist, a figure emerged, constantly wandering.

He was dressed in a sumptuous gown, like a gentleman attending a dinner party.

The only difference is that there is no head!

Headless Earl!

What's even more bizarre is that from the outside of the village, the small village is a normal scene.

……

"According to the military newspaper, this is it."

"It seems that this soldier was indeed injured during the day, and he could not return to the barracks, so he could only repair in the village......

Tian Bufen changed his clothes and threw away everything that could be associated with the commander of Black Mountain Castle.

Xue San broke his hand, and the team died, so he naturally asked for help from the army.

It's a pity that he was intercepted by Tian Bufen halfway and pressed down directly.

Not only that, but he also came in person, ready to take Su Daozhi's life.

"God help me...... When encountering monsters in the black mist, even if the team is completely wiped out, it is very normal......"

Tian Bufen, as the head of the pawn, even if his martial arts are not congenital, he is already the pinnacle of the day after tomorrow, and cleaning up Su Daozhi, even if he takes other partners, it is a matter of holding the handle.

He has limited knowledge, and only knows that martial artists are divided into acquired and congenital.

And if you can cultivate the Tao, you will directly start with innateness.

In addition, in the Second Empire of the Yan and Han Dynasties, there were many Western methods, with the division of ranks, which is said to be quite detailed.

With a bit of pride, Tian Bufen walked directly into the village.

One step out, the world is different.

Originally, in Tian Bufen's eyes, the quiet and safe small village was suddenly shrouded in a layer of fog, the buildings were blurred, and there were many people.

"What's going on? Has this village been swallowed up by the black mist? What about the pre-arranged guardian formations? ”

Tian Bufen's mind was racing, and he was about to withdraw from the village boundary on tiptoe.

But the next moment, he found himself retreating to a flat ground that seemed to be the threshing floor of the village.

Because of the action of 'quitting', he fell deeper into the village!

A trace of cold sweat emerged from Tian Bufen's forehead.

He probably knew that he had encountered terrible dangers, and what kind of acquired martial artist was no different from ordinary people in the face of this kind of treachery.

I'm afraid that only an innate master, or even a true monk, can solve all this.

Stompe!

A footstep came from the mist, and the tall and thin figure appeared, gradually condensing.

That's a ...... Headless figure!

"Ahh

Tian Bufen screamed and crashed into a portal.

There was no one in the portal, and it seemed that all the original villagers had disappeared.

In the dark, Tian Bufen suddenly grabbed a hand!

The cold is like ice, and the stiffness is like an iron palm!

With his strength, he couldn't break free.

Even, Tian Bufen found that he couldn't move, he couldn't even close his eyelids, and could only watch the headless earl emerge from the darkness and grab his neck......

Syllable!

Soon after, a body fell to the ground.

……

Zhong Shenxiu was shocked, opened his eyes, and looked at his palm slightly blankly.

He looked at a bronze mirror, and suddenly felt as if he had seen the headless earl, but rubbed his eyes and realized that it was still his own reflection.

Outside the window, the years are quiet, and occasionally there is the sound of dogs barking.

But Zhong Shenxiu knew that something bad was bound to happen.
