Chapter 780: Riverside town
Hao Ren probed the window and found that the off-road vehicle was driving on a wasteland that looked nothing special. The road outside was rugged, even if the off-road vehicle with good shock absorption performance was bumpy on this road. But except for the desolate, he did not see how it differed from before. Oh,
However, Heather Anna signaled that everyone had arrived, and she asked Duncan to drive the car to the front of a high ground, and then let everyone get off.
"There is nothing special about watching here." Hao Ren looked around. Here is a small, bare highland, with broken stones everywhere in the wilderness, and unmelted ice and snow traces between the cracks in the rock. The cold winds of the Arctic Circle kept blowing this place day and night, almost erasing all traces of life. Only a handful of low-lying plants with strong vitality grew in the middle of the leeward stone.
Heather Anna just looked up at the sky and said a word: "Wait."
The sun is slowly tilting, and as the sun gets closer to the horizon, two huge shadows gradually extend from behind the crowd. Hao Ren turned his head and saw that the shadow came from two huge rocks on a small mound not far away. The shadows cast by the two rocks in the sunset formed a shape like a tuning fork, a gap between the two shadows. It looks like a straight road of light pointing to the river ahead.
“On the other manuscript we found, the law of entering the 'secret' was recorded,” Cassandra explained. “There are seven days a month to enter the secret, in which the glow of the setting sun shines. On the twin stones next to the river bank. The light and shadow that extends out will indicate the way to the secret place. Because the sun is not the same every time, this 'door' is always changing position. After finding the path I still can't enter directly. We also need a bell made by the wizard to shake the water to open the door. The hostess has already got the bell."
“The sorcerers always like to make this god-like thing, in a certain age. They are competing to make their own retreat very complicated, and the way to open it is more than a weird, sometimes even the owner himself needs to spend Half a day of hard work can open the door of your own home," Vivian mentioned the things of the year. "At first, this was to protect themselves from the pursuit of the demon hunter, but soon it became a twisted fashion. The wizards secretly compared the standards of learning and creativity. I knew a guy because the door of the house was too complicated to hang up: when I went home, I couldn’t open the door, and the result was that the hunter would give gank."
Nangong May Rose Wei: "How do you know anyone?"
Lily rolled her eyes: "You might as well ask her why the people she knows are so bad..."
At this time the sun has sunk to the desired position. The road of light cast by the two megaliths projected on the river with the clearest path. Heather Anna took the lead and walked forward: "Go, the road has already appeared."
The group came to the river in the direction pointed by the light, and then Heather Anna kept on stepping on the water and heading toward the center of the river.
Although it is cold here, in fact, the river surface is not frozen. I don’t know if it is due to climatic reasons or the influence of supernatural forces. The river has only a little bit of thin ice here, so when Heather Anna stepped on the water, Lily also stunned: she thought she was not looking at the road.
But soon Duncan and Cassandra followed Heather Anna. The three vampires walked on the water, and Lily knew that the magical power of the mystery had already worked, and then she boldly followed it up.
Then he slammed into the river at once...
The husky girl was scared and stunned, and she slammed out of the water with an electric shock. A large piece of wetness was already below the knee, and Heather Anna glanced and curiously turned her head and said, "What are you doing?"
Lily jumped on the river, and the eager hair stood up: "Isn't it possible to leave people on the river! Why do I get out of the water when I go up!"
"Who told you that the river can leave?" Heather Anna looked inexplicably. "We will fly on the water."
Everyone: "..."
Lily stunned for a long time and slammed her head against Hao Ren’s arm: "Imagination is my fault. Imagination is my fault..."
"You are waiting by the river." Heather Anna waved her hand to other people and went straight to the center of the river. Then she took out a quaint copper bell from her arms. She confirmed the position of the bell and then gently swayed the bell.
A thunderous bang was heard from the bell!
Everyone didn't think that after shaking the bell, it turned out to be this movement, and even Vivian was shocked. As the bell rang, a burst of near-visible fluctuations spread from the foot of Heather Anna, which caused the river to violently oscillate, and the water surface was pushed out by a ring of invisible gas, and then the ripples overflowed. The river surface has been extended to the mud and even rocks on the shore. Everything in Hao Ren’s line of sight seems to have turned into a water surface, and it pulsates in a circle in the ringing of the bell!
He noticed that something in the violently fluctuating landscape began to appear gradually. Some buildings and trees that did not exist originally emerged from the wasteland in all directions. A large number of shadows, like houses, swayed on the banks of the river. And a lot of ghost-like figures walked between these houses. There was a burst of human voices in his ear. These voices talked about the trivial things of the day in a place in Europe hundreds of years ago. Hao Ren subconsciously opened his own translation plug-in, a few sporadic conversations. Into his ears, the specific meaning is fragmented, but it seems to be discussing the lord.
Suddenly, all the hallucinations were gone, and Hao Ren’s sight was stabilized.
Everyone looked around and found that they were still standing by the river. The location did not seem to change. However, there were many things that did not exist in all directions: a large number of houses, streets, wooden towers, and a small town built along the river bank.
Hao Ren looked at these suddenly appearing houses and found that their style was obviously very old. Most of the houses were mixed structures of wood and stone, and the wooden trestles that extended out were visible in front of those houses along the river. It seems to have been used to dock the fishermen's boats. Most of the roads between houses are dirt roads. In a few places, slate or pebbles can be seen. On the lampposts on both sides of the road, black oil lamps are hung.
The entire complex seems to have been around for hundreds of years...and even longer, it’s like a village or town that came out of a medieval-style movie.
Lily looked up at the sky and found that the sky had changed. A thick layer of smoke that could not see the thickness shrouded the entire town. The smoke seemed to be like a fire for days and nights. Thanks to them, the surrounding The light became very dim, making these quiet buildings look even more gloomy.
"This is the secret?" Hao Ren slightly stunned his tongue. "I thought... there is only one castle or something else."
Heather Anna returned to the team from the center of the river. After hearing Hao Ren’s jealousy, she smiled and said: “Because it is a witch’s lair, it feels like a small place?”
"This is too big now," Hao Ren said, facing Nunnou, the building around him. "Looking at it is a town. As a hermit's home, this scale is a bit out of the circle."
"I don't know what happened in the past, but it seems that the wizard dragged the whole town to his enchantment," Heather Anna nodded. "We haven't had time to find out the situation in this town. In fact, today is only I came here for the second time. Kassandra just said it. This secret environment can only come in and out for seven days every month. The last time I came, I just caught up with a small tail. I stayed here for half an hour and was excluded. Come out, so this time you are also careful: my experience may not be able to help."
Nangong Sanba silently took out the casting materials from his equipment box, began to put a Leita symbol card on the surrounding houses, and put some magic oil that emits a pungent smell on the ground to ignite, magic oil burning Immediately afterwards, a constant pale flame was formed. The flame seemed to be completely unaffected by the surrounding wind, but it burned straight. In the light and shadow of the flame, some small shadows seemed to retreat from the crowd.
Heather Anna frowned immediately after smelling the burning smell of magic oil: "Cough... What's the matter?"
"Stabilize the spiritual domain here," Nangong Sanba rarely showed a very reliable and serious look. His eyes turned white light in the darkness, as if the Huanren had disappeared. "I saw a lot of spirits here. I am afraid that we have already disturbed us."
Lily immediately took out the ice and fired her claws: "I am not afraid of the ghosts in the area."
Nangong also raised his hand in May: "I am not afraid that I am an elemental creature, and I have no feeling for the spirit."
Hao Ren looked at the two unexpectedly: the famous fish dog doubles at this time is not awkward.
Nangong Sanba shook his head: "The spirit itself may not be a big threat, but the structure of this place may be maintained by the spirit. After they get out of control, this space may change somewhat... It is better to stabilize."
"Then hand it to you," Hao Ren nodded, then subconsciously rubbing his arm. "Hey, I haven’t felt it yet. At this time, you said how I feel hairy..."
Heather Anna glanced at him with a squint: "You are a ghost of this kind of character?"
"It's not a ghost. You think about standing here. The guys who are invisible around him are peeping at you from all angles..."
"Don't say it!" Heather Anna suddenly rubbed his arm. "I feel a little hairy." (To be continued...)
