It was dusk, and the sunset on the horizon bloomed brightly, and the red glow spread across the horizon, rendering this new city in the southernmost part of the continent.

In the western part of Yadian, the air is a little hotter.

A ruined church, in a deserted area overgrown with weeds, in the middle of nowhere, a few suspiciously shaped figures carrying sacks, they climbed over the low fence, stepped over the weeds half a meter high, and went straight to the uninhabited church.

The gray-white gate, the paint has long since peeled off, and the holes on it are large and small.

The bearded man at the head looked at the obstacle blocking the road in front of him, stretched out his hand and gestured behind him, signaling his companion to pay attention, and then, he put down the sack in his hand and kicked directly at the tattered door frame.

"Boom!"

The ground trembled like a sharp kick, stirring up dust everywhere, and the gate was easily kicked to the ground like a wooden plank.

"Let's go, follow me to the back of the church."

With the shouts of the rugged male voice, everyone acted according to their words very tacitly, and everyone walked quickly through the corridor full of cobwebs, followed the steps of the bearded man, and the group carried the bag into the inner hall in a hurry.

In the room of about 10 square meters, only the high window is directly opposite the door, and although the light from the outside is not bright, it still illuminates the general layout of the room.

Under the log-framed window, there is a sarcophagus, and the corner of the wall covered with turquoise vines tells that no one cares about this place, but strangely, the mottled wall is full of crooked fonts, as if someone is recording the obscenities of hell.

In the small inner hall, four men entered it with bags, and the scene suddenly became crowded.

"Quick! I'll open the sarcophagus, and you can just put her in. ”

With a plan, the three of them put down the still wriggling sack, hurriedly untied the tether at the mouth of the bag, and took out a woman with cotton cloth in her mouth and hands and feet tied from it.

At this time, the bearded man used all his strength to push open the coffin board, and the companion behind him ignored the woman who was trying to struggle, picked up the other party and threw it into the coffin.

"Quick! Hold her down, don't let her get up, let's close the sarcophagus first. ”

"Okay!"

Hearing this, the other three also used their strength in unison.

"Buzz ......"

With the dull sound of the coffin ending, the four of them finally breathed a sigh of relief, their nervous expressions relaxed, and after the four of them looked at each other for a short time, the bearded man led by him began to continue to work again.

Manquaid and Justin, 46 years old, is the patriarch of a village five kilometers away from the abandoned church, as a second-order hunter, he usually looks like a beard, full of calm and old, sure enough, during his years as village chief, he set up his own school and taught hunting skills, and from time to time also helped the village with trivial matters, as if he became the pillar of the village.

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, half a year ago, the poultry raised in the village, for no reason, were continuously eaten up, at first the villagers thought it was the monster, so Manquaid spent money in the nearby Yadian Adventurers' Guild, issued a bounty task.

After a few days, there was a result, but surprisingly, the murderer of the livestock turned out to be his daughter, fortunately Manquid had a reputation in the hearts of the villagers, otherwise the angry people would have regarded his daughter as a demon and burned him at the stake.

Jack, an old man in his seventies, was a priest here decades ago, before the church here was abandoned, and the room where Manquaid is now is also the inner room used for exorcism in the old priest's mouth. According to the steps explained by Jack before, the bearded man was very serious and started the exorcism work for his daughter step by step.

The young man who came over with him, watching the sweaty village chief unscrew the gourd on his waist and sprinkle black and red dog blood into the room, he hesitated for a moment, and finally opened his mouth worriedly:

"Village Chief, is the method given by Old Jack reliable?"

"Regardless of whether Jack's advice is reliable or not, I have to give it a try, I have also been to the church in Yadian, but the priests there have not been able to cure my daughter, and in recent days, her state has become worse and worse, and I don't know what disease she has committed, when I opened the iron cage to let her out to eat a few days ago, while I was not paying attention, she opened her mouth and bit my back, not the strength of her second-order hunter, her physical fitness is good, and she can reflexively stun the other party, and she will become an ordinary person, and she will become a dead soul in her womb early. Alas......"

The bearded man was a little choked when he spoke, but he still pretended to be strong and sprinkled the dog blood in the gourd, and then he knelt on the ground, kowtowed to the stone pavilion, and chanted words in his mouth while making a head:

"O bright Ones of the kingdom of God, great and loving Lord! Save the innocent believers at your feet and remove the demon seed buried deep in your body......"

Muttering about the exorcism narrated by Jack, Quimander was very religious, and he also moved the three companions who came with him, put away the slackness after the exhaustion, and they also knelt down on their knees and prayed for God's blessing.

The so-called ceremony was not complicated, after about an hour of worship, the bearded man stood up, his eyes were a little moist, and he was quite moved to see the people from the village running around for their own bad things.

"Thank you for your help today, no matter whether the little girl recovers or not, after I go back tomorrow, I will treat everyone to a good meal to express my gratitude."

"Village chief, you're out of sight, we all want to help spontaneously, it's just a trivial matter, how can we need you any reward."

"That's good! I'll write down this kindness for the time being, and if you don't have anything else to do, let's go back first. ”

"Huh? Isn't the village chief going back to the village? ”

"Hmmm! After all, Jack said that exorcism requires a night of moonlight and a baptism of incantations, and as a father, I can't bear to be alone in the uninhabited ruins, so I am going to keep vigil here. ”

"Okay, but you also have to pay attention to rest, village chief, let's go back first."

"Hmm!"

Manquaid saw off the villagers to the door, and stood at the empty church gate, looking at the backs of everyone in the village under the gray sky, Manquaid was very pleased. Looking at the sky, he estimated that it would be evening, and he began to squat on the ground, took out the bread prepared in his pocket, and ate it against the dirty wall.

Looking up at the sky at nightfall, the stars were already beginning to dance, and Manquaid slowly stuffed bread into his mouth as he thought about his daughter.

Suddenly, a strange sight flashed before his eyes, and Manquaid rubbed his eyes in disbelief, but after that, he could never see the night sky agitated by the light again.

Hallucination?

The bearded man looked at himself inexplicably.

After a quick dinner and a clean up, Manquaid returned to the exorcism room and took a moment to sort out a clean place to stay.

Leaning against the wall and sitting down, the bearded man who calmed down had a sense of fear and loneliness, surrounded by darkness, in which the faint starlight shone through the wooden window and on the stone coffin, it was so white.

After a moment of distraction, Manquaid shook his head and rubbed his face, trying to relax his tense expression, controlling his thoughts, trying not to mess up the grotesque.

Speaking of which, the environment here is really a bit infiltrating, and I don't know if my daughter can't stand this oppressive atmosphere.

Let his daughter out to breathe, Manquaid wanted to do it, but Jack told him that he couldn't, and that it would take a tough attitude to get rid of the demons in mortal bodies.

After a busy day, the bearded man was ready to take a nap and recover some energy, the night had just begun, and he didn't want to fall asleep late at night because of inexplicable tiredness, and miss the first ray of sunshine that his daughter could see in the morning.

Strange to say, when Manquaid breathed, there was always a sound of a rock in his ears, and he wanted to get up to check but couldn't move, like a ghost pressing the bed.

What's even more terrifying is that the mind can take reality into account, but it is forced to go to a dream-like place.

In the vague dream, the yellow moon was scorching, the towering stone towers were like pillars of the sky, and the magnificent mountains and rivers in the distance were so evil that they were hot and dry.

A lonely shadow wandering alone, his body is shriveled and decayed, trying to find water to quench his thirst, but the green trees and rivers are all barren.

Thirsty! But deadly.

When he dried up and demanded his life, Manquaid complained about the gods.

As a parent, is it wrong to want to save your children? God of Light, why are you so ruthless.

[Hehe! What the devil is, and what the god is, is just my dessert. 】

In the dream of yellow sand, a huge strange shadow suddenly appeared, the four-winged snake body covered half of the sky, and it despised the last words of the dying like dust.
