Then Fang Senyan took Wuge girl around, and the old guide accompanied them all the way, pointing out and telling them the places where several famous battles took place. : It turns out that in such a small place, four kings fell here, and it was fought like a tug-of-war between the Dark King Fang and the Middle-Earth Continent for hundreds of years! There are countless soldiers who fell here, so it is not uncommon for undead to appear.
Once the cows and horses rest after being tired, they will have to wait at least two or three hours before they can fully recover. Otherwise, carrying heavy loads again will have a great impact on their health and easily lead to disability. So when many caravans arrive here, after noon, they generally won't leave. Because if you wait for the exhausted cattle and horses to fully recover from pulling uphill, it will be three or four in the afternoon. How far can you go
At this moment, a person from the caravan rushed over and shouted in horror:
"It's not good, those pack horses went mad and ran away!"
After hearing the news, the old guide's expression changed drastically, and he hurried back. Of course, Sheyan and the others couldn't just wander around anymore, so they hurriedly chased after them, and suddenly saw the place where the pack horses were lying in a mess. , Even the place where the goods were stacked and unloaded was smashed into a mess, and there was a very tragic bloodstain on the ground.
After some inquiries, I found out that it turned out that a member of the caravan pulled the rein with his hands in order to subdue a mad pack horse. As a result, the whole person was dragged for at least seven or eight meters and hit a rock. Still do not know life or death.
These pack horses have been tamed for a long time, and they have always been very docile. I don’t know why they suddenly went crazy. The owner of the caravan, Gutes, led people to guard the other half of the cargo under the top of the storm. Only the old guide was in charge of the overall situation. It seemed very chaotic for a while, some people were chasing the pack horses, some people were treating the wounded, some people were busy picking up the goods...
After Fang Sheyan thought about it, he felt that it was absolutely impossible for the pack horses to suddenly go crazy. After thinking about it, he focused his doubts on the food that these pack horses ate when they were resting. Hay and salt were brought by the caravan. Doubts can be ruled out. Sen Yan, the prescription of the spring water, went to check it out, it was clear and cold, and it was bubbling, it was impossible to poison it, more importantly, people also drank the spring water, and nothing happened to them.
Then... Fang Sheyan walked directly to the place where the pack horses were lying, and the people who grazed the pack horses led them to the nearby hillside, where the grass seemed to be relatively lush. , Miss Wuge told him that this place made her feel very uncomfortable, and even the plants on the ground contained a crazy smell.
Fang Senyan frowned as he looked at the grass that had been eaten by pack horses, because he realized that the soil color here was very new, so he immediately took out a shovel from the nearby sundries and pointed it at the place where he was digging violently. Standing up, under Fang Senyan's full force of digging, the floating soil on the surface was quickly dug away, and then he dug it down with a shovel, revealing a pale white half-rotten palm!
Soon, the guys from the caravan surrounded them with astonishment. Sheyan excavated a total of sixteen corpses from the ground! More importantly, among the sixteen corpses, more than half of them were not decomposed, so they clearly recognized that these corpses were all colleagues of theirs, and a few months ago they drank, chatted and bragged about touching the bar Waitress ass acquaintance...
An invisible terror spread among the members of the caravan, but at this time, the old guide stood up, walked over with a gloomy face, and fiddled with the corpses without hesitation, as if the pungent aura did not exist Same, after a while he said:
"There were wounds cut by swords on their bodies, but the cause of death for all of them was exactly the same—poisoning! It was precisely because of their poisoning that the toxins in the corpses penetrated into the ground, and the grass that grew out was eaten by livestock. That drives the pack horses mad."
The old guide's words immediately stabilized everyone's morale, and they all came over to look at them one after another. Sure enough, they found that the faces of these corpses were black and blue, and their expressions were grinning in pain. They really looked like they died of poison.
Caravans in Middle-earth have to face many dangers, so these caravan members are the best choice in terms of courage and ability. What they are most afraid of encountering is that kind of irresistible mysterious power. I heard These people were poisoned first and then killed, so they naturally regained their courage.
Fang Sheyan was silent beside him, and seemed to agree with the old guide's point of view. At this time, someone brought back the frenzied pack horse, and the rest gathered around to help, but the old guide frowned, walked to Fang Sheyan's side worried road:
"Thanks."
The old guide was obviously thanking him for not exposing some falsehoods in his words, Sheyan took a deep breath and said:
"We're in big trouble if we don't get out right away."
The old guide's face was ashen. Yes, he was right. The cause of death of these people was poisoning. However, the poison could not have entered their bodies for no reason. Usually, they either took poison or The weapons that cut them had poison on them. It's a pity that these people were poisoned not because of this, but because they breathed in the terrible poisonous gas!
If Sheyan remembers correctly, this should be the special ability of the ring spirits, the dark breath. In the descriptions of the elven classics, these powerful creatures also have other invisible and deadly weapons. An aura of fear surrounds them forever, affecting all creatures around them (except for some of the most powerful creatures), and their breath (known as dark breath) is highly poisonous.
Victims of the Dark Breath or Dark Shadow experience endless despair, nightmares, coma, and even death. Only one plant called king grass (ahthelas) can be used to combat this effect.
Looking at it at this time, it is definitely not unreasonable for Gandalf the Gray to be attacked here. It is very likely that the dark king has once again set his sights on this strategic location, and has begun to slowly lay out his plans. It is very likely that he will hide here. An army of undead tribes can attack Rudol, Cardolan, and Shire at critical times!
At this time Gutes also rushed over after hearing the news, and when he heard the news, he said very decisively:
"Then what are you waiting for, we don't want any more goods, let's go right away! Dwarf friends asked me to take care of you, so today we must put your safety first."
Hearing Gutes' words, Fang Sheyan couldn't help but look at him high. You know, businessmen are after profits, but Gutes, who can give up this batch of goods that may bankrupt him without hesitation, is very surprised. Resolutely, he nodded and said:
"Okay, let's go now. It's just that although your pack horses have been found, they are probably in a state of madness and can't be ridden."
"Then kill them all!" Gutes waved vigorously. "Then hurry up and leave."
…
Four hours later, the group of people was exhausted and out of breath. In such a short period of time, the lightly packed caravan had driven out at least 50 kilometers away from Fengyunding, and everyone could see the sudden appearance Therefore, there is no objection to the decision of the boss to abandon the goods and flee lightly.
It was getting dark at this time, and everyone felt extremely tired. Even though they were a caravan who had been outside for a long time, traveling so far in a short period of time was beyond their limits. So they found a shelter from the wind, built a bonfire, and ate their dinner voraciously. Although Gutes still eats meat and drinks in big bowls, it is still difficult to conceal the loneliness in his expression.
In fact, this is also human nature. No matter how you see your career being destroyed out of thin air, it is impossible to remain indifferent.
However, after they had rested for about an hour, Miss Wu Ge suddenly frowned, grabbed Fang Sheyan and said seriously:
"I feel... a powerful evil is slowly approaching us."
Sheyan smiled and said:
"Don't worry, I'm by your side."
Wuge girl smiled and kissed him on the lips:
"I've been looking forward to fighting with you for a long time."
As she said that, she had already taken out her staff and began to chant natural spells—of course it was just for show. As the holder of the Dawn Elf and Lord Vilia, and all the spells released were auxiliary spells, the girl Wuge was of course Instant, but she is now playing the role of a human mage, so of course it can't be too outrageous.
"The strength of a bull."
"Bark surgery."
"Acceleration."
Amidst the light green light flashing, group support spells landed on everyone one by one. Of course, Sheyan and Jiaoshi are eligible to enjoy the blessing of the dawn elves.
After finishing these things, Miss Wuge took out a scroll in a similar manner. In fact, this scroll was abolished, and after chanting for a while, she tore it up, and two rays of light suddenly rushed from her hand to the front two big trees.
The two big trees swayed and stood up from the ground, and their branches began to twist together, becoming a second-order legendary creature treant. This kind of treant has a certain summoning time limit, and they are all puppets. Of course, their power must not be compared with that of a big guy like the war treant Farrell.
At this time, there was a clear sound of horseshoes in the distance, and the sound of trampling on the ground was like the sound of human bones being broken.
Immediately afterwards, a large number of skeleton soldiers emerged from the darkness! Behind the skeleton soldier, there is a tall and terrifying figure riding a nightmare beast!
Fang Senyan and his group were finally overtaken by the ring spirits who rushed over overnight!
