Shout.

It didn't take long for the second ball of light in the sky to slowly go out like a light bulb, and the light instantly became as dim as dusk.

"Found it!" Sherlock shouted as he raised his voice and pointed to a hill not far away.

Green followed his lead, and there was a hidden hole at the bottom of the hill that looked like a place to stay.

The men quickly quickened their pace, crossed a somewhat muddy yellow earth, and came to the entrance of the cave.

The entrance to the cave was very narrow, and the situation in the cave could still be seen by the dim light at this time, and after making sure that there was no danger, several people took turns to enter it.

"Find something, block the door. Sherlock checked it out, and his nervousness eased somewhat.

The cave is not big, barely enough for a few people to live, although the environment is a little poor, but everyone can't care about this.

They each found some branches and stone slabs to block the hole little by little. Green moved the last stone and put it on top, just in time to see the third ball of light in the sky outside also extinguished, and the whole world was instantly plunged into darkness, and a sense of foreboding suddenly came to Green's heart.

Before he had time to think about it, Green patted it the stone, slapped it more tightly, and when he was sure that there were no gaps, he turned around and sat down on the ground to rest.

"What the hell is going on in the night on this plane?"

Grimm recalled the strange feeling just now, and couldn't help but ask.

"I don't know, but when my brother came here five years ago, nine of them spent the night together, and two disappeared on the first night.

Two more disappeared the next night, and strangely, they didn't notice that there was no one missing from the team. It wasn't until the third day that my father asked someone to imprint the protective circle in his soul to start warning him, and he realized that something was wrong.

Later, I don't know what method they used to find this way to hide. ”

Since several of them were still spirits, they could still see each other clearly, even though it was dark in the cave at the moment.

Green's soul was much more condensed than the others, and it was no less than those mages who specialized in spiritual power cultivation, which made Sherlock admire in his heart.

"If it's really dangerous, just erect a wall to stop it?"

The other knight asked, confused, he didn't have the sharp intuition of Green, and he didn't notice the strange ominous aura that it was in the dark.

"Maybe that's the unique rule of this plane, and as dangerous as it may seem, nothing will happen as long as you stay in the cave and spend the night. ”

Sherlock shrugged and said, he didn't know exactly why.

Next, a few people began to chat casually, discussing with each other some of the knights' cultivation experience.

It wasn't until late at night that a few people felt a little tired. Although it is a spirit state, it also needs to rest.

Although Sherlock says it's safe to stay in the cave, Green insists on taking turns keeping vigils to avoid accidents.

After the assignment, Sherlock was the first to keep vigil, and the rest of the people quickly calmed down and began to rest.

Green's soul was much stronger than theirs, and he didn't feel very tired at this time, so he just sat there and closed his eyes to recuperate.

It was a long time before Sherlock whispered to the other person, and it was his turn to be on duty for the night.

The man muttered quietly, sat up with some reluctance, and counted the time in his mind.

The exhaustion of the soul was more difficult than the physical body, and it was not long before he felt a wave of sleepiness rush over him.

For. For. For.

Suddenly there were several knocks on the door outside the cave entrance.

"Who?"

He replied in a daze.

I only heard a little girl's voice outside the entrance of the cave, crisp and pleasant, "Please open the door, I'm looking for my mother, I don't know if she's here with you." ”

"There's no your mother here, don't believe it. He staggered to his feet and walked towards the entrance of the cave, reaching out to take a stone down.

Syllable.

A hand reached out from the side and grabbed his arm tightly, stopping him from moving.

He came to his senses a little, and when he turned his head, he saw Green sitting on the side and holding him tightly, his eyes fixed on the hole.

Hush.

Green held out his finger in front of his mouth, motioning for him to remain silent.

Even in the spirit state, he still felt as if a layer of cold sweat appeared on his body, and it was obviously a desolate wilderness outside, and a little girl came out of nowhere.

"Open the door, I'll take a look and leave, my mom is gone, I have to find her...... Otherwise...... Woowoo"

The sound of the little girl's sobs sounded again, and the knock on the door became more and more urgent.

The other two in the cave did not react and continued to sleep deeply.

Green looked out closely, and with his current 22 points of mental power, he couldn't sense anything outside the cave at all.

However, the slightest malicious aura that came in through the crack made him feel a great sense of threat, and he didn't have to think about the fate of putting things outside the hole in.

It was just an ordinary wall made of earth, stone and tree branches, which could be knocked down with a slight push, but at the moment, it was like the strongest city wall in the world, blocking the things outside.

At this moment, Green had deep doubts about Sherlock's statement that Sky City wanted to occupy these planes.

If the night here is so dangerous, it can't be habited normally, and even if it is occupied, it will be useless.

After a long time, the sobs outside the cave slowly faded away, until they could no longer be heard.

"That'...... What the hell is that?"

It wasn't until the little girl outside the cave had gone completely that Green let go of the man's arm.

He immediately sat down next to Green against the wall and asked in disbelief.

"I don't know. Anyway, it's not a good thing, so I'll keep a vigil tonight, and you guys have a good rest. ”

If Green hadn't stopped him in time just now, the consequences would have been unimaginable, so he didn't dare to let them keep vigil anymore.

The man was frightened, and soon fell asleep unconsciously.

The cave was silent, and nothing happened until the second half of the night, and Green felt a little tired.

Just as he was about to rest for a while, there was another very shrill knock on the door outside the cave, which woke him up instantly.

"Please open the door, I'm looking for my daughter, do you see her?"

An old female voice sounded outside, pleading in her tone.

Grimm was silent, quietly sensing the movement outside. Sherlock was still asleep and did not react to this.

Bang. Bang. Bang.

Seeing that no one answered, the woman outside began to slap the wall made of earth, stone and branches, so loud that it felt like the wall would be toppled down in the next second.

However, it went on for a long time before the woman sighed and seemed to turn away.

Only then did Green relax, he almost thought that the wall was going to be unstoppable.

Fortunately, until dawn, nothing strange happened.

Seeing a glimmer of light coming through the doorway, Green woke up a few people, dismantled the earth and stone walls, and walked out of the cave together.

As soon as he walked out of the cave, Green's pupils couldn't help but shrink, and he looked at the two clear lines of footprints on the ground.

A line of small child-like shoe prints, and a line of adult bare footprints, all seem to have lingered at the entrance of the cave for a long time.

"Do you still have any impressions of last night's movements?"

"What's going on?"

"Nothing happened last night. ”

Green asked a few people about last night, but none of them remembered, not even the man who had almost opened the wall.

After seeing the footprints on the ground, several people looked at each other.

Sherlock, on the other hand, looked solemn and pulled Green aside by himself, asking him in detail about the previous night.

"It's not quite what my brother told me...... But as long as the way to dodge is fine. ”

The two of them couldn't figure out what happened strangely, so they could only take the other two to continue to explore first.

After walking for two days, several people finally found traces of human activity.

"It's left by the natives of this plane, there are quite a few of them, and they should be around here. ”

Sherlock took a closer look at the footprints that remained by a small river, and the marks they had left when they fetched water.

"The natives here are very rare, but the combat effectiveness is low, and we don't have to worry about being injured if there is a cloak composed of star power, Green's soul strength is very high, and it shouldn't be a problem to deal with some natives. ”

After Sherlock analyzed it, he and Grimm scattered to find the natives.

It didn't take long for Green to spot a small village down from a hillside.

The natives of this plane look similar in appearance to the people of Felwood, except that they are much shorter, and they look dry and thin, as if they are malnourished.

There is a deep hole in the middle of the village that goes down with no end in sight.

Green summoned Sherlock and the others to discuss their next steps.

"It's just a small tribe, just observe it, make a note of their living conditions and habits, and go back to Sky City. Sherlock said simply.

There are only a few dozen people in the village below, and they still live a very primitive life, and there is nothing special. As they watched for a while, they were about to leave, when they saw an elder like a leader step out of the largest house in the village, holding a baby in his hand.

Immediately after, the entire village gathered behind him and walked step by step to the edge of the cave in the center.

The elder leader didn't know what to say, and everyone knelt down together and watched as the leader threw the baby in his arms into the hole.

Immediately afterwards, the leader took out a palm-sized black wooden statue from his bosom and placed it on a mound of earth on the ground, and worshipped it with the people.

"Hey, this village has already held a festival, and Sky City should be interested in this news. ”

Sherlock touched his chin and turned his head to find that Green wasn't listening to him at all, but staring at the black wooden statue.

"The breath of attribute points will never be wrong. ”

Green slammed to his feet.
