In the strange darkness, desperate and painful roars were looming, as if they were far away in the horizon but right in front of us. The terrifying dark night seemed to block time and space. There were clearly people calling for help in front of us, but they could only be vaguely heard.
Under night.
Weird darkness descended from north to south, slowly submerging the world. And the weird existence hidden in the darkness was madly devouring the flesh, blood, and souls of living creatures.
Countless creatures died inexplicably in the darkness.
Northland.
Outside the city where cultural light burst out, terror and darkness flooded the world.
At this time, the teachings supporting the city near the academy stood on the city wall and looked at the darkness in the distance, as if they could see countless creatures struggling in the darkness.
die.
There is anger and sadness in my heart.
The wind blowing from the terrifying darkness carries a vague and strange sound.
It seemed like a devil was chewing the bones.
It's creepy.
"This, what on earth is this?"
On the city wall, a student from the academy asked in horror, his whole body trembling with fear. The strange darkness gave him endless terror, and even his soul trembled.
"Very weird and dark."
Helianshan said with a solemn expression, feeling deep anxiety in his heart.
At this moment, he stared closely at the darkness outside the city, and horrific pictures emerged in his mind. He seemed to see that the villages without the light of culture were suffering from terrible disasters.
"Could the thing hiding in the darkness be an evil spirit?"
Some students asked nervously and with doubts.
"It doesn't look like an evil ghost."
Helianshan shook his head, pondered for a moment and said: "Perhaps more terrifying than evil ghosts, more weird and indescribable."
"What?"
Several students were shocked.
Originally, evil spirits were synonymous with weirdness and indescribability, but now there are existences that are even weirder and more indescribable than evil spirits?
This made them unable to believe it.
"Is it a serious crime?"
A student asked.
“It doesn’t look like a big evil”
Helianshan shook his head, stared at the strange darkness and said: "Perhaps what is scary is not the strange existence hidden in the darkness, but the darkness itself. Because the darkness is invisible, we cannot see the existence in the darkness.
Generating great fear”
"What I said is not bad."
The academy professor nodded and said: "As long as you light up the literary light, you can resist the darkness from being swallowed up, and the weird existence hidden in the darkness cannot get close. This shows that the weird existence in the darkness is not something to be afraid of."
When the students heard this, they felt slightly relieved.
"Although the weird darkness is not scary to us, ordinary people are afraid of it."
Helianshan couldn't help but sigh.
The academy professor remained silent, and finally looked up at the night sky and sighed.
The strange darkness floods the world, rather than flooding one or two cities or one or two villages. Although the cities are all guarded by literati and protected by some cultural treasures, what about the villages outside the city?
Who will protect you?
Moreover, the cultural light bursting out from most cities cannot even completely cover the city itself, so how can it take care of the outside of the city?
At this time, the city was in chaos, with panic and shouts everywhere.
Although more special buildings such as the Eighty-one Academy, temples, and holy palaces can all emit terrifying cultural light or divine light, which is enough to withstand the drowning of strange darkness.
But how much can it cover?
In the Northland, there are too few places that can light up the cultural light or divine light, compared to the entire Northland. Although the literati who have opened the Wen Palace can light up their own cultural light, those at lower levels
How many people can a scholar protect?
Even the Wenguang illuminated by Wenxiang is only a few hundred feet long.
Moreover, the brighter the literary light, the more literary energy is consumed.
And darkness is like a tide, flooding in continuously. As soon as the light goes out, darkness will drown everything in an instant.
And accompanied by terrifying monsters.
At this time, when the strange darkness flooded the Northland, the academies, palaces, temples, etc. in the Northland all burst out with cultural light or divine light to resist the engulfment of the strange darkness.
But outside Wenguang, it's like turning into hell.
"Help."
Someone shouted desperately in the darkness, but the sound could not be heard three feet away.
Hiss
From time to time there were terrible sounds in the darkness.
It seemed like there was some terrifying monster staring at people coldly around them. After a moment, there was another rough hissing sound, and then it was like a monster was gnawing on bones.
"Sir, the student plans to go out of town for a walk."
On the city wall, Helianshan stared at the dark road outside Wenguang. He could not sit at ease in the city. Although he could not see the tragic scene in the darkness, he could imagine it.
He couldn't accept it.
He felt that he should do something.
"No."
The teaching immediately shook his head and said: "The darkness outside is too dangerous. A gentleman would not stand under a dangerous wall."
Helianshan smiled and said: "Sir, the student likes what Junior Brother Yan said very much."
"What are you talking about?"
Teaching questions.
"The king and his ministers are of one mind, the superiors and subordinates are in harmony, there is plenty of food and clothing, the old and young are healthy, and everyone is well served, and the world is peaceful." Helianshan looked up at the night sky and said, "But now, the world is not peaceful, and the young and old are not healthy. Someone has to stand under the dangerous wall.
"
The teaching fell silent.
"If Senior Brother were here, he would definitely agree to the trip to the mountain." Helian Shan said.
"Then go."
The teachings muttered for a moment.
"Thank you sir."
Helianshan saluted and jumped off the city wall, walking towards the darkness outside the city.
"Come back safely."
The edict shouted.
Helianshan is one of the most outstanding disciples of Burial Mountain Academy besides being a saint.
In the future, he will definitely become a great Confucian, or even a great sage.
Helianshan nodded.
At this time, several students on the city wall looked at each other, jumped off the city wall one after another, and chased after Helian Shan's figure.
"return!"
Jiaoyu shouted loudly when he saw it.
But several students ran very fast and soon caught up with Helian Mountain.
A dozen feet away from the city was a strange darkness, and nothing could be seen outside.
At this time, Helianshan stood in front of the darkness, frowning and listening carefully to the darkness, and faintly heard strange sounds coming from the darkness.
"Second senior brother."
"Second senior brother."
The four students said one after another.
Helianshan turned around and nodded, saying: "Actually, you shouldn't come."
"We are all students of Burial Mountain Academy. At this time, the world is in trouble and the people are in trouble. How can we stand by and ignore it? How can we be human beings like this?"
Some students say.
"It's over."
Helianshan waved his hand and said: "Since you want to follow me, remember not to mess around and obey my orders."
"clear."
The four students nodded.
"First, you are not allowed to leave me for more than three feet without my order."
Helianshan pondered for a moment and said, he was not alone at this time, he needed to consider the safety of others, "Secondly, I don't have any orders, so I can't act rashly."
At this time, Helianshan said a few points and said, "Remember?"
"remember."
"Then let's go."
Helianshan lights up the cultural light and takes the lead into the darkness.
The four people followed closely, but did not light up the cultural light. The cultural light on Helian Mountain happened to cover three feet.
