I Created the Myth of the Old Ruler

"Walking back?"

Startled, Drizzt let go of the rein, picked up the lantern and shone it.

This stone statue was undoubtedly exactly the same as the one they had seen before.

"Or, there will be many similar stone statues on this road to confuse people?"

He illuminated the stone statue, and there was a gap in the head of the weird, religious stone statue.

The gap was exactly the one knocked off by Lu Jian's crowbar.

""

Both fell silent.

"I thought what would happen at the wedding, but now it seems that just attending the wedding in Dry Water Town is already very difficult."

Drizzt sighed.

"At least we weren't attacked."

Lu Jian added a sentence.

As soon as the words fell, Drizzt saw that there seemed to be a figure behind the stone statue.

The figure of the man was no different from that of a normal person, but there were still deep wrinkles on his face, and his eyes protruded, like a fish.

He was only wearing a sweatshirt on his upper body, revealing a dark and strong body. This is not the kind of muscle built by bodybuilders, but a figure that is indeed repeated day after day.

The man stood behind the stone statue, staring straight at the carriage, at Lu Trip, and at Drizzt.

"Do you know how to get to Dry Water Town?"

Lu Jian asked immediately.

"Ku, water, town, go, forward."

The man pointed to the front, in the dark mist.

His voice paused word by word, like a stuck repeater.

The last words appeared in Lu Jian's hand. He listened carefully, but he still didn't hear the heartbeat of the other party.

After thinking about it, Lu Jian picked up the crowbar and got out of the carriage directly.

"Hey, be careful."

Drizzt reminded.

Stepping on the hard and cold gravel road, the bone-chilling chill seemed to be transmitted through the shoes. Lu Jian took the flashlight and came to the side of the stone statue. The fog became thicker, and the carriage and Drizzt behind him were shrouded in a thin layer. Sha, Lu Jian didn't get very close, and one hand still grabbed the rope on the horse.

"We're going to Dry Water Town."

Lu Jian repeated.

"Ku, water, town, go, forward."

The man repeated.

"Which way should we go?"

Lu Jian asked again.

"Go, this, this, way."

The man pointed to the gravel road under his feet.

"No, we are going to Dry Water Town, this road will only turn back."

Lu Jian said something.

"Ku, water, town, go, forward."

The man repeated persistently.

"Can this road really reach Dry Water Town?"

Lu Jian confirmed it again.

"Go, this, this, way."

The man said dumbly.

""

Lu Jian looked back at Drizzt, who was also very helpless.

After thinking about it, Lu Jian began to ask.

"How to get to Erxian Bridge?"

The man froze for a moment, then pointed to the gravel road underground.

"Go, this, this, way."

Hearing this sentence, Lu Jian was already very clear.

This person, or these people in the fog, probably only have some simple reactions, and have no cognition and intelligence of their own at all.

In other words, it is not certain whether these people are still alive or not.

Lu Yi's flashlight shone on that person's face. It would be very rude to be an ordinary person, but the other person didn't respond and just stood there blankly.

Lu Jian raised the crowbar and slowly poked at the opponent's shoulder.

Just when the crowbar was about to touch the man's shoulder, a hand suddenly stretched out and grabbed Lu Jian's crowbar.

That's not the man's hand.

Looking to the side along the bony arm, Lu Jian saw that it was another person who looked different from the previous one, but had the same big eyes and a wrinkled face.

The light of the flashlight shone backwards, and Lu Juan saw that behind the two people, there were more people like them.

These people seemed to have been standing here since ancient times, motionless, only staring at the landing stumble with their protruding huge eyes.

Perhaps, when the previous driver got out to pee,

When Lu Jian and Drizzt were observing in front of the stone statue, when the carriage was driving in this dark and silent night, on the side of the road, among the broken walls of those buildings, on the weeds and grave mounds, in the dense and invisible In the mist, these people stood quietly in place, staring at them.

"Come back soon."

Drizzt gave a cry, the revolver ready to go.

His vision was blurry, this scene was undoubtedly creepy, the dense crowd of human-like but not human beings at all made Drizzt feel dizzy, only the coldness of the metal in his hand could calm him down a little .

Without checking, Drizzt's sanity must have decreased by at least three points.

"wait."

Lu Jian took half a step back, and could see that some people were just covered by the fog and disappeared from view.

He looked at the man in front of him, these guys had no intention of stepping forward into the light, they were still standing where they were.

"Do you know the Black Queen Mother?"

Lu Jian asked a question.

Hearing Lu Jian's words, everyone's eyes twitched and turned to Lu Jian.

"Hei, Wang, mother."

Their voices came and went, continuously.

Immediately, the first person had an expression on his face for the first time.

That is fear.

Lu Jian saw that his facial features were distorted, showing fear, awe, and panic.

"what"

The man let out a whimper, and then backed away as if avoiding a land trip.

Several people made the same sound, gradually backed away, and disappeared in the thick fog.

"Black Queen Mother?"

Drizzt didn't seem to have heard of this term.

"Do you know the statue of mercy of the Black Queen Mother?"

Lu Jian returned to the car and asked a question.

Drizzt shook his head.

"This seems to be a religious belief in some areas of the Kingdom of the Night, or in the vicinity of Dry Water Town. It is an evil religion, and there may be a tradition of sacrificing living people."

Lu Jian told the information he got from the God of Mercy statue of the Black Queen Mother.

"Heh, this kind of enemy is not uncommon in the Silent Land, etc., it's your first time in the Kingdom of the Night, how do you know this, don't you?"

Drizzt looked Lu Jian up and down.

"Have you ever used the madman's knowledge?"

"Well, for this mission, I used it twice, so I know some mission-related knowledge."

Lu Jian nodded and said.

"Twice, no, this mission?"

Drizzt's eyes were a little strange.

"Although the madman's knowledge can obtain exotic knowledge, including task content and some extraordinary information, but it is more insane knowledge. The mere contact of these knowledge that humans cannot understand is a kind of pollution."

He was a little sad.

"I was not sensible before, and I used the knowledge of a madman once, and the result"

Drizzt seemed to still remember the experience at that time, and he didn't want to mention it too much.

"You have used the madman's knowledge twice, so it should have been polluted to a certain extent. Be careful, if your sanity is reduced to a certain level, it may be eroded, and even alienated into a monster."

"How do you think the difficulty of these tasks comes from? Ordinary people come into contact with taboo knowledge, are polluted, their sanity is eroded, and then alienated and reduced to monsters."

"The difficulty of the task is the limit to which the God Chosen may degenerate in this task."
