Chapter 138: Shadow of the Moor
After a while, Huton departed from his guests, and went to the girl whom he had taken captive, taking with him food and wine, and the strange and interesting things dear to the noble prodigals, to the laughter of the fox friends, but he found that the caged bird had fled.

Then he rushed downstairs as if enchanted, and as soon as he reached the dining room, he jumped up on the large dining table, and he kicked everything in front of him, whether it was a bottle or a wooden plate. He yelled in front of his friends that if he could catch up with the girl that night, he would give his body and soul to the devil's mercy. ”
The drunken prodigals were stunned by his rage, and one of the particularly vicious fellows, perhaps because he was more drunk than the others, cried out that the hounds should be let out to chase her. As soon as he heard him, he ran out, shouting to the groom to saddle the horses and let all the dogs out of the kennel, and to sniff the bandana that the maiden had dropped to the hounds, and to blast them out, and the dogs galloped wildly towards the moonlit moor. ”
The prodigal sons stood dumbfounded, wondering what had been going on in such a hurry. It took them a while to figure out what they were going to do in the moor, and then they all started shouting, some of them for pistols, some for their horses, and some for another bottle of wine. At last, their crazy minds finally came to their senses, and all thirteen of them got on their horses and gave chase. The moon above them shone clearly, and they pressed close to each other as they galloped along the maiden's way home. ”
"As they had been running a mile or two, they came across a shepherd in a moor, and they shouted and asked him if they had seen the man they were chasing. It is said that the shepherd was so frightened that he could not speak, but at last he said that he had indeed seen the poor maiden, and that there was a group of hounds chasing her. ”
"'I saw more than that,' he said, 'and Shauton Bach passed by on his black horse, followed by a black shadow that ran so fast that it disappeared in an instant. God, I'm sure it's the devil! It's a demon crawling out of hell! ’”
The drunken old men looked at each other, not only who had opened their mouths first, but they seemed to think that the shepherd was deliberately trying to frighten them, and they scolded the shepherd angrily, and rode down again. But soon they were frightened and chilled. For they heard the sound of horses running in the moor, and the barking of dogs, and then they saw the black horse, which was foaming at the mouth, and ran over, with no one in the saddle, and the reins dragged on the ground. ”
"I don't know who screamed, 'Blood!' The prodigal son of all looked in horror at the mark of the horse's hoof, which was full of blood. From that time the prodigal sons were all huddled together, for they were already terrified, but they were still moving forward in the moor. If they had just walked there alone, they would have turned their horses around and run back. In this way they rode slowly on their horses, and at last they caught up with the hounds. ”
"The hounds, known for their bravery and good breed, had fallen into the moor, staining the swamp red with blood. The one or two that remained were huddled at the end of a deep ravine in the moor, and they all began to wail, and their eyes looked in horror into a narrow ditch ahead. ”
"The men reined in their horses, and it is to be guessed that they are much more awake now than they were when they set out. Most of them did not want to go any further, but three of the most daring, perhaps the most drunk, continued to ride their horses down the ravine. ”
"There was a wide flat field in front of me, and in the middle stood two large stone pillars, now long gone, who had erected them in ancient times, and the darkness of the night enveloped them, like the gates of the devil. The moonlight illuminated the clearing, and the girl stood in the middle of the clearing, with a smile on her lips, and looked particularly beautiful in the moonlight. Shauton Bach fell at the girl's feet. ”
The three daring drunkards looked horrified at the corpse of Shauton Bach, whose body had been torn off by something and had fallen at the girl's feet. The most ferocious drunkard cowered and walked up to the girl, and touched the standing girl with his trembling right hand, and the girl fell to the ground, and it turned out to be just a corpse. ”
Then the two men who had come with him suddenly screamed in terror, and in the moonlight, the lower half of Shutton's body was thrown into the air and fell to the side of the three drunkards. A big, black beast came out of the darkness, the horrible thing had a huge mouth that tore off one of Shutton's thighs in one gulp, and no one knew what the hell that thing was. ”
As they watched in amazement as the guy tore at Tauton Bach's throat, it turned its dark eyes and mouthful mouth toward them. When the three men saw this, they cried out in fright, and hurriedly turned their horses' heads and fled for their lives, even exclaiming as they crossed the moor. It is said that one of them died of fright because he saw the guy that night, and the other two also fell into a lifelong insane disorder. ”
"My sons, this is where the legend of the curse of the Bach family comes from, and it is said that that terrible creature has been harassing our family horribly ever since. I also wrote it down because I felt that what I heard and guessed was much more terrible than what I knew clearly. ”
"It is undeniable that many of the people in our family died unhappily, and died suddenly, tragically and mysteriously. May we be protected by God's boundless mercy from three or four generations of people who are Bible listeners. My sons, I command you in the name of God, and I exhort you to do good deeds and be careful, and not to walk through the moors when night falls and the forces of evil are in power. ”
"This is a letter from Charz Bach to his two sons, Balin Bach and Charlie Bach."
Luo Hanya yawned and casually threw the manuscript of the family letter to Henry, who looked nervous.
"Huh? Mr. Han, what do you think? He said.
"Don't you find it interesting?" Luo Hanya smiled and said, "It's very similar to a mythical story that scares children." (To be continued.) )
