Chapter 20: A Night of Terror
But in this world, this kind of thing happens more and more.
There has long been a mage who has given the answer, this is the astral arrival.
Originally, there were solid barriers between the material world and the immaterial astral plane, which were difficult to overcome.
Only cultivators have all kinds of means to break through the boundaries of the material world and enter the astral realm.
But this world doesn't know what's going on, the barrier between the material world and the astral world doesn't seem to be so strong, and the astral realm is more likely to overlap with the material world, causing all kinds of strange things to happen.
In the history of the Togashi, there was even a record of the night walk of a hundred ghosts, and it also happened in their capital city of Toe.
From the king of the Japanese, the ministers and officials, down to the common people of Limin, and the pawns of the peddlers, they all saw it.
There were even countless ghosts that appeared in the palace, causing the prince to be scared to death.
And the number of civilian officials who died as a result reached thousands......
Since then, the capital has been abandoned, and the Wa Kingdom has rebuilt a new capital.
At that time, when the news reached Daqi, it became a laughing stock.
It is believed that the country of barbarians has no royal spirit to protect each other, and even demons and monsters can appear in the palace of the capital......
In the case of Daqi, any county has the protection of the royal road of the law, and it is impossible for this kind of thing to happen.
Of course, this kind of thing will not happen in the cities of Daqi, but there are countless such things that happen in the mountains and villages, and many of them have been recorded in the disaster chapters of the history books.
And the occurrence of such things is considered a barometer of the rise and fall of the dynasty.
And Roba was not much better, and it was not until the large-scale rise of mages that this so-called astral advent was curbed.
Again, in Arliga, this kind of thing happens more often.
In the primeval forests of Arliga, the explorers and colonists of Roba found dozens of ancient cities that had been preserved but had disappeared cleanly......
Dick was the first to think of this kind of thing, and when he saw the scene in this village, he spoke.
Yin Shengzhi didn't say anything, even though he had already felt the residual astral aura.
But who knows if it's a natural disaster or a man-made disaster?
There are many naturally occurring astral events, but there are even more man-made ones!
"You two be careful, just sleep in this room. I'll keep a vigil for you!"
Wang Zirui was old and lacked energy, and soon yawned, so he moved the futon and slept by the fire.
Anyway, there are a lot of empty houses in the vicinity, and the furniture and bedding inside are even more motionless.
But Dick said that he was not sleepy, and he happened to chat with Yin Shengzhi.
The two chatted with each other, and gradually Dick's eyelids drooped, and finally he couldn't help but fall asleep.
But I don't know how long I slept, and suddenly my cold hair stood on end, and the family heirloom badge around my neck had begun to heat up slightly.
Dick's family background is not simple, and the same is true of the family heirloom, at this time, the fever must mean that there is danger around!
This made her excited, and she immediately opened her eyes and crawled up.
saw that the bonfire in the room was still burning, but it had become very weak, and Yin Shengzhi and Wang Zirui next to him had disappeared completely.
A pale blue mist poured through the crack in the door, and seemed to have gathered a thin layer in the room.
Along with this was a strange rattling sound from outside the house.
In the quiet of the night, in the village where the villagers mysteriously disappeared, there was such a strange sound like a duck croaking, which suddenly made Dick's heart chill.
"Where the hell did King Yin and King go? Did they secretly leave themselves? What about the Alfreds?"
Dick was a little flustered, but she was no ordinary woman, and quickly calmed down, and then added a few handfuls of firewood to the campfire, making it brighter.
Not only will this give people a sense of reassurance, but more importantly, in the barren mountains and mountains, this flame will also protect against things like wild beasts.
However, at this moment, the rattling sound seemed to be getting closer and closer, and it seemed to have come to the outside of the room where she was.
But the family crest around Dick's neck was getting hotter and hotter, and even glowing faintly.
"It doesn't matter, there's a family crest, at least a ghost below the third level can't hurt me......"
As Dick comforted himself like this, he couldn't help but wonder, what was out there, and why did this sound so much like a duck?
Could it be that there is a flock of ducks outside? She couldn't help but turn to the window, poke the window paper, and peeked out.
There was moonlight outside, so much so that even the pale blue mist could still allow Dick to see what was outside.
But Dick had a shudder when he saw it clearly.
But under the dark night, there was actually a group of people dressed as villagers, squatting on the ground, swaying their hands, making a strange quacking sound like a duck, and swaying around like a duck.
And at this time, Dick happened to see the face of the first strange man in the moonlight, and his face seemed to be smiling, or rather with a very strange and unchanging smile.
And when Dick looked over, the strange man at the head seemed to see Dick too, and his gaze went straight over.
This sudden gaze suddenly frightened Dick took two steps back.
"Oh no, this guy found me!"
As soon as I thought of this, the sound of "dong dong" came, this is the sound of hitting the door panel!
The monster outside is pounding on the door panel.
Dick's hair stood on end, and he was about to block the door with something, but it was too late.
"Quack!"
The wooden door had been smashed open, and with the fog breaking into the room, there was a flock of humanoid ducks.
Each of them had a strange smile that seemed stiff, as if it had been painted on the face. But they couldn't stop chattering, and staggered towards Dick.
"Damn ......"
Dick was so frightened that he hurried behind the fire, and even took a burning stick, and tried to reach for the strange men.
Who knew that a huge force could easily knock out the burning wooden stick with flames in Dick's hand, which made Dick's heart palpitate more and more.
At this time, the power of the family crest disappeared.
Dick, who had nothing to do at all, had just called out, when suddenly a light fell. The object in front of him turned suddenly, the fire was blazing, and Yin Shengzhi's concerned face was in front of him.
Dick hugged Yin Shengzhi tightly and almost cried. It's a safe response after being frightened......
