Chapter 11: Ghosts in the Woods

What special period did Xing Tianyu say in his heart?

"You don't mean 'they' are coming back. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" Xing Tianyu asked pointedly.

The spirit of the ancient summoner seemed a little surprised when it heard this, and it looked at Xing Tianyu with a scrutinizing gaze, "It looks like you know something." ”

"Hehe, just a little." Xing Tianyu didn't say much, but asked towards Sylvia, "So which one do we start with?" ”

"Let's start with mine." Sylvia said. "Let's make it easy and then difficult."

The two of them set off, of course, before leaving, they didn't forget to introduce Sam and the Ancient Summoner's Spirit to each other, because before the two of them completed their mission, the two guys still need to stay at Sylvia's house for a while, and the two did not use magic teleportation, but set off in Sylvia's Humvee.

Two days later - the small town of Pulit:

This town is located in a very remote area of Iowa, which is very different from a big city like New York, and before arriving in the town, the surrounding natural environment begins to gradually become fresh and green, and there are green fields and forests everywhere, so that Xing Tianyu can clearly realize that he is entering a remote area.

As soon as he entered the town, Xing Tianyu found that the atmosphere of this town seemed to be a little wrong, the two of them stayed in the hotel first, and then they began to investigate, and the most convenient target of the investigation was naturally the owner of the hotel, but when the two came to the bar, they found that someone seemed to have taken the lead.

Two guys in black suits were sitting in front of the bar, laughing with the hostess of the hotel, one was tall, thin, wearing glasses, and the other was a little shorter and strong, the tall guy was posing as a wanderer at this time, "Beauty, we just came to this town, can you give us two a little advice?" ”

The proprietress looked at the two of them with an unkind face, "You two are?" ”

The tall, thin man introduced himself, "My name is Simon, he's Charlie, and we're both mystery writers, and I've heard about a lot of bizarre events going on around here lately, so we're looking for inspiration." ”

But there was a sneer on the boss's face, "Writer, right? Tell me about some books you've written before, maybe I've read them too? ”

The two of them suddenly showed embarrassed expressions, and Simon said, "Well, in fact, we have just started writing, and we haven't published any works yet." Charlie, on the other side, patted him on the shoulder to stop Simon's lame lie. He pulled out a shiny gold document from his pocket.

"In fact, we're the FBI, and there's one thing we need you to cooperate with in the investigation."

The proprietress's face suddenly became solemn, and with a hint of instinctive vigilance, she said, "It turned out to be the FBI, so what do you two want to ask?" ”

"We've heard about some paranormal events nearby, is there such a thing?"

The proprietress nodded, "There are indeed some strange things, I don't know if it's a supernatural event, I guess it's probably someone playing a prank, people are rumored to live in the nearby forest a god, a pagan god worshipped by the Indians, or an ancient ghost who lives in the forest or something, in short, it's very mysterious, if you take the food into the forest, and if you're lucky enough, you'll find an ancient altar, you put the food on the altar, and the pagan god will appear, If it accepts your gift, in return, it will grant you a wish.

This rumor has popped up in recent years, and it is very vivid, of course, it needs a little trick here, after you put the food on the altar, you need to hide secretly, and when it comes out to eat, you suddenly jump out and say that it stole your things, so that it can only fulfill your wishes for you. ”

The proprietress knew everything, but at the end she smiled again, "Of course, these are just ridiculous rumors, I know the forest very well, and I used to play there when I was a child, there are no pagan gods, no altars, only coyotes and deer - if you're unlucky, you can meet bears or something." ”

Simon frowned, "And where did that rumor come from?" ”

The proprietress shrugged, "Who knows, someone may have made it up to improve tourism to attract tourists." ”

When the two FBI arrow proprietresses said this, they could only nod their heads and leave.

Xing Tianyu and Sylvia glanced at each other, both realizing each other's thoughts, it seems that the so-called Indian god should be the prayer elf, and the inquiry of the two FBIs saved the two of them trouble.

The two of them walked on the streets of the town, and Sylvia looked at the empty and silent streets, and suddenly couldn't help asking, "By the way, if the prayer elf is so effective, should we simply make a wish?" After all, our ultimate goal is to summon the god of lights, and the purpose of summoning the god of lights is nothing more than making a wish. ”

Xing Tianyu didn't expect Sylvia to say this, "Having said that, the prayer elf shouldn't be as strong as the mana of the lamp god, right?" ”

"But we don't have to share our wishes with others."

"Let's see if it can actually grant its wishes, and don't forget, the spirit of the ancient summoner said that the Prayer Elves will distort the wishes of humans." As the two spoke, the ruins of a house suddenly appeared in front of them, and a group of townspeople were scavenging from the ashes, and the two FBIs were also there.

"What are they doing?" Xing Tianyu asked a child riding on a bicycle with one foot on the ground.

The boy looked him up and down, then at Sylvia, with a look that was completely out of tune with his age.

"Fifty dollars."

"What?"

"Give me fifty dollars and I'll tell you -- or show me your boobs." The second half of the sentence was said to Sylvia.

Sylvia laughed instead of being angry, she leaned down and gently touched the child's hair, and just as the child showed an expression of enjoyment, she suddenly grabbed the child's neck.

"Here's a hundred dollars, tell me everything you know before I get your brain out of your nostrils."

The child's face turned red from being pinched, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly said it all.

"They were looking for gold, old Henry used to have a lot of gold, it is said that he once met the god in the forest, and made a wish to become a billionaire, but when he went home, an archaeological team came to the town, it turned out that there was a ruin of the ancient Mayans in this town, and his house was located on top of the ruins, the archaeological team dug up a lot of Mayan gold vessels from under his house, however, it is said that old Henry secretly hid some, and then a few days ago, old Henry's house suddenly caught fire, It may have been caused by drunkenness, and then Henry was burned to death, and everyone was looking for the gold that old Henry had hidden, a bunch of fools, so the government would not leave the gold. ”

Xing Tianyu said in his heart that this was the case, as soon as Sylvia let go, the kid turned around and fled, and did not forget to take the hundred dollars with him before leaving.

"It seems that what the Spirit of the Ancient Summoner said is true, and the Prayer Elf has distorted the wish and killed the person who made the wish."

Sylvia shook his head: "Not necessarily, maybe it's just bad luck, many people who have made a windfall have died, I think we can find more people to ask, since there is such a legend, I believe there must be many people who have gone to the forest to make a wish." ”

"Good idea." Xing Tianyu nodded, and the two inquired as they walked.

However, it seems that the people in this town seem to be a little wary of this matter, and they are vague and unwilling to talk about it after asking a few people in a row, so Xing Tianyu has no choice but to use the Dafa of staring again.

"Tell me anyone else in your town who has met the god of the forest and made a wish." Xing Tianyu stared at the forty-something baker in front of him and asked.

The baker glared for a moment, "Let me think, oh yes, I do deserve two people to have rumors about this, there was an old man, named MacDonald, it is said that he once met the god of the forest, he made a wish that he would live for two hundred years, but he lived to be 138 years old and did not die, he was too old to stand up, and he lay on a bench every day to bask in the sun, but he just couldn't die, but he looked more miserable than dead, because he lived too long, and as a result, his sons and grandsons, All of his peers are gone, and now he lives with his great-grandson, who looks like he's dying. ”

The baker shook his head with emotion.

"There was another woman, she had a dog when she was a child, and the dog was dying, and one day, she also met the god in the forest, and she made a wish that her dog would be with her forever, and her dog survived, and the bigger and bigger it became, and the dog was very careful not to let anyone come into contact with the girl, and the girl was in her forties, and still had no love, and the woman's name was Joanna, and she often wandered in the forest, trying to find the god, Retracting his wish, but it seems to be a long way off.

Of course, these are all rumors that I have heard for a long time, and I have only heard them since I came to this town, and I am not sure if they are true or not, but I did see the two men, the old fellow MacDonald, and the woman named Joanna and her fierce old dog.

If you want to ask about what happened recently, you can go to the white house down the street next door and find a man named Billy, who is a lumberjack who often wanders in the woods, and I have heard that he has recently had good luck and found some treasure in the woods, but I think it was probably the ghost of the woods - if it existed. ”
