"What's the situation?"

Before the two could figure out what was going on, countless goblins swarmed out of the darkness.

Like the human-faced python, the target of all the ghosts was not Lu Shaoyang and Yan Miaomiao, as if someone was driving them behind, they fled frantically.

But the two of them will still be attacked by these ghosts on the way.

"Yan Miao Miao! Stand behind me! Lu Shaoyang yelled.

A giant shield of Aegis instantly blocked the two of them, splitting the swarming goblins and sending them rushing from both sides.

"Do you know what's going on?" Lu Shaoyang turned his head and asked.

Yan Miao Miao hid behind Lu Shaoyang, looked at the many ghosts and monsters that fled away like a tide, and shook her head.

"I've brushed the mountains so many times before, and I really haven't encountered this situation once, but..." Yan Miaomiao seemed to think of something, thought for a moment and continued.

"But I've seen descriptions of this phenomenon in other mythological and historical materials before, and it seems to be called some kind of ghost corpse tide."

A wave of ghost corpses? This is the first time I have heard of this statement.

Looking at Lu Shaoyang's confused expression, Yan Miaomiao immediately explained.

"This is actually accidental, not only in ghosts, but also in many animal groups."

"For example, if a herd of animals gathers together to feed, and suddenly there is a predator or source of danger, then the frightened animal will immediately flee."

"Animals that are far away will flee together after receiving this signal, and then the farther away will also be affected, so that the behavior of escaping will continue to be transmitted, even if they are a kilometer away and have not seen this source of danger at all, they will also be affected and flee immediately."

"So, there must be something that frightened the ghosts in this mountain forest and caused this wave of ghost corpses."

After listening to Yan Miaomiao's explanation, I instantly felt a sense of enlightenment.

If that's all there is to worry about, the only thing these goblins have to worry about is the source of the scare.

"You say, could this source of danger that caused the tide of ghosts and corpses be the guardian shrines of the three magic circles?"

Lu Shaoyang directly embedded the shield of Aegis into the ground and pressed his back against it.

"It shouldn't be, Julong and Houtu's formation is not in this area, as for Choking, although it is very close to his formation, he will only appear when the stars are in the sky and the seven stars are aligned, and now there is not even a star in the sky, he will definitely not appear."

At the mention of this inky night sky, Lu Shaoyang looked up and stared, and for some reason suddenly had a strange feeling.

It stands to reason that even in the darkest night sky, there should be one or two stars, or a glimmer of light, reflected in the night sky.

And today's night sky is a little too dark to make people very uncomfortable.

"Okay, but I'd prefer that the source of danger is choking, so I don't have to look for it." After speaking, Lu Shaoyang immediately pointed to the night sky: "By the way, do you think that this night sky seems to be a little too dark?" ”

Yan Miaomiao just glanced at it, and then smiled.

"Brother Shaoyang, don't you know, the copy of Buzhou Mountain that I fought before, the entire sky seems to have been soaked in blood, terrifying and disgusting, even more terrifying than the blood-red sky of our current world."

"Now the environment here is like a paradise on earth compared to before, not to mention that the night sky is a little dark, as long as the mountains and rivers can be so beautiful during the day, even if I open my eyes in the sky at night, I can accept it."

Lu Shaoyang shook his head with a smile, didn't say anything more, and continued to support the shield of Aegis with his body.

After about ten minutes, the ghost corpse tide gradually weakened, and after another five minutes, the ghost corpse tide completely ended, and the scattered ghosts left behind were quickly resolved by the two.

After the surrounding environment returned to calm again, the two were about to sit back in front of the campfire to eat some barbecue and drink some wine, when they suddenly felt a trance.

However, this trance came and went so fast that even Yan Miao didn't realize it.

Lu Shaoyang shook his head, and after confirming that there was nothing wrong, he didn't care too much about it, and immediately sat down.

"Huh? Why isn't the meat cooked yet, Brother Shaoyang? What kind of meat are you taking here? Yan Miaomiao looked puzzled.

"That's right, it's been more than ten minutes, why hasn't it been cooked yet, I'm just taking some ordinary chicken and mutton, isn't the fire a little small?"

The two of them picked up some dead wood branches around and threw them into the fire, and the whole bonfire suddenly burst into flames.

"It's okay, just wait, there shouldn't be any more ghosts and corpses, right?"

Yan Miaomiao smiled and shook her head: "There will definitely be no more, how can it be possible to come to one place twice in a row, unless someone is idle and has nothing to do, driving ghosts back and forth on both sides to play." ”

"Hahaha, play with ghosts, you're really..."

Suddenly!!

Before Lu Shaoyang finished speaking, there was another strange sound in the dark grass on the side, which was extremely familiar.

But before he could listen carefully, a human-faced python suddenly sprang out, passed the two of them, and fled.

"Huh? Did you see this scene just now? Lu Shaoyang frowned.

At this moment, the familiar tremor struck again, and it intensified as before.

"Not good! It's a zombie tide again!! ”

After feeling the ghostly aura coming from the surface, Lu Shaoyang immediately summoned the shield of Aegis again, preparing to block in the opposite direction just now.

After all, if the ghost corpse tide strikes again, it should also be from the direction of escape and then turn back.

But just as he turned around, the ghosts like a tide still rushed from the original direction.

"How is that possible?!" Not only Lu Shaoyang, but even Yan Miaomiao on the side also widened her eyes.

At the last moment, Lu Shaoyang flipped the shield of Aegis and stood in its original position again, even the pit embedded in the ground was tightly closed and did not change at all.

"What's the situation? Why are there so many ghosts coming from the same direction? ”

"No... It shouldn't be! Yan Miao squatted behind Lu Shaoyang and fell into deep contemplation.

It stands to reason that even if there is a tide of ghosts and corpses, it should be turned back from the direction of escape, and it can't be divided into two batches, right?

Just as the two of them continued to wait for the end of the ghost corpse tide as they had just done just now, some of the goblins who were running and fleeing suddenly turned around and attacked the two people hiding behind the shield of Aegis.

"Be careful!!"

Yan Miaomiao, who was still pondering, didn't react at all, and the ghost had already waved its claws and jumped above its head!
