Chapter 5: The Barren Land

The dawn sun shone down from the depths of the clouds, and the vast green hillsides rose and fell like a thick green carpet, and a few black crows screamed and streaked low in the sky.

Between the woods on the hillside, a winding path winds out, and the sound of horses' hooves echoes rhythmically on the rain and dew-soaked mountain road, driven by a spacious carriage full of supplies.

"Your Excellency, in front of you is the Glamorgan Lord...... That's what Bagh told me to say. Judging by the steady tone, Grubi was used to the role of a microphone.

"It's finally here. ”

Yare stuck his head out of the window and looked into the distance, where several straight peaks came into view, made entirely of bare rocks, except for a steep and narrow mountain road in front of it, flanked by barren mountains.

"It's easy to defend and hard to attack!" said the black-haired knight.

"It's really easy to defend and hard to attack...... Wait a minute!" Charlene couldn't help but stroke her forehead with one hand, and said quickly:

"Don't you wonder why the surrounding mountains are covered with woods, but the mountains led by Glamorgan have no grass?"

"Because it's a cursed land. Yare's answer left her speechless.

"That's right...... If it's not strange, it can't be called the Land of the Damned. The green-haired girl stared at the black pressed mountain, pondered it carefully, and was immediately relieved.

This time, Miss Headless Horseman's sense of distance seemed to be much more normal, but in half an hour, the carriage squeezed through the narrow mountain road and officially entered the territory of Glamorgan.

"Quack, quack, quack!"

Several crows appeared in the middle of the mountain road with screams, their blood-red eyes staring at the carriage. Circled around the carriage for a few weeks. Then he fluttered his wings and swept through the sky. A few black feathers floated slowly to the ground.

Yalei was extremely powerful, and sat in the compartment calmly, not caring about these ugly birds, but Charlene nervously twisted her eyebrows, tucked her skirt with her bare hands, and looked out of the car window.

The surrounding land is unusually desolate, with half-human-tall grass and bushes dancing with teeth and claws, and the sunlight seems to be sucking away the temperature of the land. The temperature here drops sharply, and it is the height of summer, but it is indeed a late autumn temperature.

From a distance, the grass on this land is alienated, the hills are messy, and under the slightly gloomy sun, there are dots of green phosphorus fire floating everywhere out of thin air, and the space is quiet and a little weird, and occasionally there is a terrible howl of beasts, which lingers in the ears from far and near.

"Yare......" The green-haired girl trembled and grabbed her lover's hand. The body unconsciously moved closer to him.

"Don't be afraid, if it's not such a barren place. It is not our turn to govern. The black-haired knight took her tender hand and said confidently:

"I'd like to see how much of a surprise this so-called cursed land can bring me. ”

"I'm not afraid!" Charlene argued with a blushing face, and then muttered, "I just think it's a little weird...... It's just that there are no people, why don't there even be small animals......"

"I want to ...... Pregnant. ”

Yalei raised his head suddenly, his eyes shot a superb light, his perception was weak, but his eyesight was excellent, and he could see from a distance the silhouette of a cluster of shadows approaching.

"What's that?"

The green-haired girl mustered up her courage and looked out the window with wide eyes, only to see a faint faint yellowish fluorescent light, which would not have been able to distinguish it from the surrounding phosphorescence if it were not for the dim light of the land.

"Honorable lord, do you want me to disperse them?" the aquatic horse stopped walking, said with his head held high, and suddenly stiffened his body again, and said cautiously:

"That's what Bag meant, I'm just a horse pulling a cart!"

"No, let them come. ”

The black-haired knight stared coldly into the distance, a golden light flashed in his eyes, and the fear force field was instantly ready to attack, and he wanted to see what tricks the other side wanted to play.

At this moment, a cold cool breeze suddenly rolled up on the flat ground, which suppressed the wild grass on the ground, and the mist that came from nowhere surrounded the whole carriage, and in a silent way, the surroundings suddenly became gray.

The light in the mist accelerated abruptly, and the dense layers were mixed in the phosphorus fire, and staggered close to the carriage, and the mist slowly lined up to both sides, and it was actually a pumpkin lantern that only shone from the inside.

Whoosh!

Arexin shot his falcon sword through a jack-o'-lantern and dragged it into the carriage, grabbing it in his hand and scrutinizing it.

"Jack-o'-lantern?"

Charlene followed, raised her index finger curiously, poked the pumpkin lampshade like lightning, and quickly retracted it, the texture was cold and rough, and it didn't seem to be a big deal.

There was a cluster of pale yellow lights suspended in the hollow pumpkin lantern, burning quietly without half a minute of fluctuation, and the black-haired knight stretched out his right hand expressionlessly, grabbed the fire directly from the top inward, and pulled it out of the lampshade.

The firelight was pinched in his palm, and the jack-o-lantern, which had lost its light, immediately fell to the ground with a pop, and after rolling in a half circle, it was dead and silent.

"You can take it out. The green-haired girl covered her mouth in surprise.

"What do you think this is?" Areley pinched the lamp into a ball shape and placed it in front of her.

Without waiting for Charlene to answer, the light that had been pinched into a ball suddenly lit up, and a layer of black qi leaked from the inside of Huang Chengcheng, forming a distorted human face, followed by hands, and then curled up into a disproportionate body......

"Wraith?" Charlene immediately narrowed her eyes.

"Poor ......"

The black-haired knight let out a long sigh as he stared at the wraiths that were constantly tapping the flames from within, trying to escape from their restraints.

"Can you help it?" said the green-haired girl with some hesitation.

"Ghosts can be saved, but no one but themselves can save the spirits. ”

For some reason, when Areley pinched the wraith in his hand, he suddenly developed an appetite, and then looked at the jack-o'-lantern floating around the carriage, completely watching the feeling of a sumptuous meal.

How so?

The black-haired knight hurriedly drove the increasingly intense hunger out of his mind, looked at the light in his hand, and suddenly felt a horizontal in his heart, and directly pinched it with force.

"Liberation in disguise. He said with relief.

"Let me try too!"

Charlene plucked up her courage and dragged down a jack-o'-lantern from the outside, tentatively reaching into the lampshade, but it directly penetrated the lamp and couldn't catch it.

"Why can't I catch it?"

Frustrated, she threw the jack-o'-lantern away, staring at Are, and asked with a tense face, "How did you do that?"

"I don't know. He looked at his palm suspiciously, and made a virtual grasping motion: "Just grab it, and grab it directly...... It's useless to have any ability. (To be continued......)
