Chapter 180

"How far is it from here?" Du Zhengyi asked calmly.

"I don't know the actual distance," Roach pinched his forehead to calm himself down as quickly as possible, "but I knew it was probably over a mountain, at what might be the junction of two mountains." ”

"Surface?" Du Zhengyi asked.

Roach pondered nervously, he didn't get into the heads of any creatures, he relied on his consciousness to distinguish the forms of creatures, and then relied on the relative positions of creatures to judge the terrain. He quickly retraced what might have been missed, and finally nodded, "I think it's the surface." ”

"How many?" Du Zhengyi asked again.

"Eleven." Luo Qi followed Du Zhengyi's clean rhythm, "It's evenly distributed, so it feels like the natural population of the village, but there are no other living creatures other than that." ”

"It doesn't matter if there are only eleven." Du Zhengyi said, but Luo Qi heard that there was probably a twist in Du Zhengyi's words, and there was a lack of a "but".

Before he could think about it, another series of screams erupted in the village, and the sound of the door opening and closing was heard, and the living people in the village shouted the sound of ghosts.

"What's going on?" Du Zhengyi asked again, he walked towards the door, Luo Qi hurriedly followed, and the two walked down the corridor to the door of the house.

Luo Qi hurried to walk and said, "As soon as my consciousness got there, a high-level energy source was triggered, and I felt a consciousness, that thing was very frightening, so I withdrew. Those human screams happened almost simultaneously. ”

They walked to the door, and Luo Qi subconsciously reached out and grabbed Du Zhengyi's forearm, "Brother, do you remember the rural middle school teacher that Wen Lin said?" ”

He saw Du Zhengyi's eyes staring at him in the dim corridor, his eyes sharp, "I remember." ”

"The screaming villagers are the more mentally sensitive of the humans, and they should have woken up from a nightmare." Roach said.

But Roach also knew that this cry was too terrifying, far from being a sound that ordinary nightmares could force people to make, it was more like directly acting on the fear unit of the cranial nerves. Maybe everyone felt the panic, but a few people with more delicate nerves were affected a little more intensely.

"Go out and have a look." Du Zhengyi pushed the door open.

They were probably the only yard where the lights weren't turned on, and Roach looked around, and there were lights everywhere, and every house seemed to have lights hanging high in the sky. Now the ghostly screams had ceased, and in its place there was chaos, and the whole village had become a blind bull, a monster with a missing head.

The monster was made up of countless sounds of doors opening and closing, cries, shouts and killings, and the sound of countless hooves stomping on the ground, and countless beasts breaking free of their chains and slamming open the bars. Some people ran out of their homes and down the street, but there was no direction to speak of.

There were only two words that Roach felt, chaos.

"It could be a night whistle." Du Zhengyi said calmly.

Luo Qi's brain reacted sluggishly in shock, Du Zhengyi had already walked towards the door, he hurriedly followed, and heard Du Zhengyi explain further. "Ancient humans fought and camped at night, and they encountered this situation. Although rare, it has been recorded quite a few times. According to their current medical interpretation, it should be a group panic triggered by a sudden stimulus, which is a stress response. ”

"Like a sudden herd of herbivores?" Roach said they had opened the door, and he couldn't help but tremble.

"It's kind of like, like a crowd running wild in the African savannah. At the end of the day, whether it's a mage or a human, it's just an animal. Du Zhengyi whispered, frowning in disgust, as if he was about to do dirty work.

"Then we," Rocky muttered, he didn't know what to do.

"Follow me, don't get too far away from me." As soon as Du Zheng spoke, he stepped into the night of the village.

Luo Qi followed him closely, he didn't know how Du Zhengyi judged that the two neighboring families were not worth entering, Du Zhengyi directly jumped over the courtyard wall of the third house in the south. Luo Qi had no experience in dealing with emergencies, but the mage's body structure made it not a problem for him to jump over the courtyard wall in the countryside, although he didn't see his feet clearly when he fell, but he immediately stabilized his body and chased Du Zheng all the way to the door of this house.

He ran as hard as he could, and the courtyard in the northern countryside was fifty meters deep, but in the blink of an eye they ran to the door, and his heart was beating wildly, and suddenly he thought that the courtyard of this house was not lit, and there was only one light in the house.

Just as they ran to the door, the door of the house burst open, and a burly man stood in the doorway, glaring at them.

Roach's heart sank, there was no rational light in the man's round eyes, he was like a muscular beast. Roach smelled a hint of blood, and by a little light in the courtyard next door, he saw the kitchen knife that the man was carrying.

The man seemed to instinctively judge that Du Zhengyi was a greater threat to him, and he raised the knife in his hand and swung it frantically at Du Zhengyi. Du Zheng slammed his wrist away with a fist, and slashed his neck with a quick palm, and his body fell unconscious.

Roach rushed past the man, and there was a child's cry in the house, and he ran in, fumbling all the way on the wall to turn on the light. The houses of the villagers were almost in the same pattern, and he found the crying child in the kitchen at the back. A four- or five-year-old child convulsed and cried, and Roach looked desperately at the bloody wound on the child's back, as if he had been beaten in the back of the head.

Du Zhengyi followed into the kitchen and went straight to the child's side, "I will stop the bleeding with a little first aid, and I can also speed up the healing, but I am not as professional as mahjong." Roach, call the human emergency number immediately. ”

Luo Qi trembled and took out his mobile phone and did so, and after making the call, he heard Du Zhengyi using magic to help the child heal, and asked him repeatedly, "Where is your mother?" ”

He must have thought that the woman had been attacked as well, but Rocky understood the child's words better than he did, "Don't ask, brother, the child said he ran away." ”

He saw that Du Zhengyi failed to understand that Du Zhengyi had a strong and unbreakable obsession with the relationship between mother and child. Roach said softly, "It's not that you run away for your life, it's that you are divorced." ”

Du Zheng glanced up at him in a daze, and Luo Qi swallowed, "I think there must be a lot of murders tonight, and the evil thoughts that people here have buried for a long time may have been released." ”

Du Zhengyi let go of the child, the child had eased up a lot, and he said to the child, "The ambulance came back." ”

He was too rational with the child, Luo Qi estimated that Du Zhengyi would not talk to the child at all, he squatted down and picked up the child, and the child immediately grabbed Luo Qi desperately and did not send him away. Roach held the child and buried his head in the child's small body, he may also collapse, what devil did he release.

"It has nothing to do with you." Du Zhengyi said suddenly, Luo Qi didn't even expect Du Zhengyi not to scold him for a while, he was taken aback.

Du Zhengyi continued, "All the Mind Mages who come here to investigate will provoke such a result. ”

"Did the big black do it?" Roach asked.

"I suspect it's Guan Yushan." Du Zhengyi said coldly, "This is an ancient means of defense. ”

Luo Qi's mind was in a mess, and he felt Du Zhengyi squeeze his shoulder, "You wait here, I'll go check somewhere else." Ambulances will come, so will the police, don't forget to erase the traces. ”

Roach nodded.
