Chapter 24 Unprecedented sense of panic

The old man sighed and shook his head repeatedly, with a bit of fear in his eyes, "You have committed evil!"

"Tongying Town has had a mountain god for generations. Every fifteenth day, they would leave an animal in the mountains to seek protection from the mountain god. However, the demons came and took everything away, but none of the people were harmed.

"

The old man stood up as he spoke, his back hunched over. He looked extremely desolate just by looking at it. "The demons also say that no one can be seen at night and no lights can be seen. If you can do that, you will never hurt innocent people."

Luo Jiang nodded thoughtfully. No wonder the scene could remain like this during the day, but at night people were panicked again.

Every house turns off the lights and closes the doors, but why?

If we just asked not to light the lamps, wouldn't it be easier to just massacre the entire town? Why go to all this trouble.

Or maybe some people from the demon clan have this habit of torturing people, leaving them to die bit by bit, giving them hope and then making them despair.

Knowing that he was thinking too much, Luo Jiang shook his head and quickly shook off the strange thoughts in his mind.

But she still couldn't hold it back and quietly told Yan Chen her thoughts.

The banquet minister was silent for a while, and then slowly said: "Mountain God."

It is unknown whether this mountain god exists, but it must be something that the demons are concerned about.

Perhaps it was because of this so-called mountain god that the demons did not massacre the people, but what was the origin of this mountain god?

Luo Jiang became more and more confused. She originally wanted to follow the plan and bring back a few people from the Shangqing Sect, and then induce the demons.

But now it seems that it is not that simple.

Eyes, mountain gods, demons, Tongying Town.

There were too many unknown things, and Luo Jiang did not dare to take risks easily.

However, what worries Luo Jiang the most is——

[What mountain god? What are these weird settings? Are you there, dear, please come out and explain.]

She didn't want to do it anymore. The days went by with more and more hopelessness. Luo Jiang felt like she was like 007's social animal in the company.

No, it's even more pitiful. In addition to being on call 24 hours a day, she also has no salary and no vacation.

The more Luo Jiang thought about it, the sadder he became. He just wanted to point at the system and curse.

[As I said at the beginning, there were some problems with the game and the system is still being repaired, so cross-connection is normal, dear.]

This is not just a matter of tying up the threads, but also changing the plot, right? Luo Jiang even felt that except for the protagonist, no thread was where it should be.

[Forget it if you cross it. Is it your fault for not giving me a hint?]

[The system is not responsible.]

Very good, let them burp together!

If the demons are still the world view originally set in this game, then the mountain gods may have come from other games.

Going further, Tongying Town is probably no longer the original Tongying Town in this world.

"That sight this morning should be the so-called mountain god," Luo Jiang pursed his lips, "I want to see it."

Not only do you have to see it, you also have to figure out what the mountain god is.

Zhong Lishuo rarely objected to her proposal, but turned his attention to Yan Chen, "What do you think, senior brother?"

Luo Jiang covered her face, why would she bring out such a loser?

"If you want to see it, then go see it. The demons haven't appeared yet, so it's probably not the right time yet. They will come out if they want."

Yanchen said softly, and glanced out the window. It was still dark, but there seemed to be no sound.

When the old man tremblingly opened the door, it was already a mess outside. The stall fell to the ground, and many things were blown all over the sky. No one knows where they went.

Now everyone tentatively exposed half of their heads, and after confirming that there was no danger, they all came out to pack their things.

Although there was sadness and anger on his face, he was mostly helpless.

For them, it's just losing something, which is better than losing their life.

"I just vaguely heard you saying that you wanted to go up the mountain. Please listen to my advice and don't go." The old man put his hands behind his back and staggered further and further away. "I'm afraid the mountain god is gone long ago."

Luo Jiang shook his head and waited until the old man's figure disappeared from sight before the three of them headed up the mountain.

This mountain is no different from an ordinary mountain forest, but it is very different. Even animals are hard to see, and the most common birds are also missing.

The entire mountain seemed to have been evacuated and turned into a dead mountain.

"There is something strange about this place." Yanchen frowned, and he suddenly raised his eyes to look at a black figure that was about to move on the mountainside. The black figure disappeared before the sword was even unsheathed.

Zhong Lishuo naturally saw it too. He frowned, his heart beating faster and faster. The further he walked into the mountains, the less calm he became.

It seemed like there was a voice deep in his heart, constantly telling him not to go forward, it was time to go back.

Luo Jiang frowned slightly, suddenly thought of something, picked up Tianji Tong and looked back, and suddenly broke into a cold sweat.

Gone.

"Stop! Don't go forward!" Luo Jiang felt her head buzzing, and an unprecedented sense of panic almost enveloped her whole body.

Zhong Lishuo was stopped by her shouting and almost fell down.

"Why are you so surprised!" Zhong Lishuo muttered, but stopped and looked back at Luo Jiang, "What's wrong?"

Yanchen looked at the Tianji pupil in Luo Jiang's hand, vaguely guessed something, and grabbed the handle of the knife harder with his fingers.

"It's gone, the eye in the sky is gone!" Luo Jiang didn't know why she had to look back, but after looking at it, she knew where the strange feeling was.

They only saw that huge eye last night. Why was it missing today?

In other words, what was staring at them in the mountains that morning?

Is it a mountain god? Or is it that eye?

Zhong Lishuo's expression suddenly changed, and he immediately lowered his voice, "Aren't those eyes a mist? Why are they missing?"

Luo Jiang shook her head, but she was certain that the things in the mountain must be related to that eye.

"Perhaps, the eyes were not just eyes at first?" Yanchen's tone was not very good. His words were like a wake-up call, and Luo Jiang's expression suddenly changed.

"Go down the mountain, go, go now!" She finally knew where this strange feeling came from!

Yan Chen has probably guessed everything she can figure out. Is it really because of the demons that Tong Yingzhen became like this?

Is there really a mountain god? Is it because the demons don't go on a killing spree because they are afraid of the mountain god?

Countless questions combined into one answer, no.

From the moment they entered Tongying Town, everything was going according to the demon clan's plan. Every step they took was planned by the demon clan.

If nothing else happens, they will soon be able to see the "eyes" if they go further into the mountains.
