There is an open piece of land in a coconut forest about thirty miles away from the town. This was originally a village near Adubis City. Later, due to some reasons, the residents here were forced to move away.
The tall date palm forest just blocks the rising sun at noon. The red dates hang on the branches, which is very eye-catching. However, growing around such a ruin seems a bit eerie.
It's fine during the day, but at night it seems that such a dense place would make an adult man feel timid.
A carriage was slowly coming here, and a man sitting outside was holding the carriage. His expression was a little lazy, but his sharp eyes showed inherent dignity.
The carriage was advancing on this narrow path, and there were some shallow grooves of different depths everywhere on the road. It did not affect the carriage's progress, but it made the people sitting on the carriage feel a little bumpy.
"Just be patient and we'll get to the front." The man outside whispered to the inside.
Immediately after the car curtains were lifted up, a young face was revealed. He looked straight at the path, and the shadows of abandoned houses could be seen vaguely in the area he was looking at.
Horus glanced at Tuvia, and then said casually: "You knocked Nut unconscious. When he wakes up, he will complain about how unkind your master is."
As he spoke, he set up the carriage seriously, but his eyes revealed joy, because this was the first time the two of them were alone since they left Monset in so long.
Horus felt excited, even though he understood that what was waiting for them was likely to be a dragon's pool and a tiger's den. However, these were beyond the scope of his thinking.
He, Horus, had never been afraid of anything.
Tuvia remembered the scene in the morning. When the three of them were getting ready to go, she knocked Nut unconscious from behind. Then Horus understood and carried Nut into his room.
Horus understood Tuvia's thoughts. There were many dangers along the way to Sedes. She was unwilling to let Nut take this risk. Moreover, even with Nut's current skills, he might not be able to help. On the contrary, it would be very dangerous.
It might hold them both back.
Tuvia glanced at him lightly, "Let's talk about it when he wakes up!"
At this time, all her thoughts were focused on the temple she was about to reach. Looking at the increasingly difficult road in front of her, it was hard for her to believe that a village once existed here.
With such a terrain, it is extremely difficult for people living here to go out. That old man from Zaler really knows how to find places, and he has come across such remote areas.
Moreover, the scene at this time has long since changed, and the style of more than ten years ago no longer exists.
Although it was daytime, the date palm trees here seemed to be getting denser and denser as they went deeper, making it more difficult for the carriage to move forward. The surrounding dense date palm leaves had blocked the dazzling sunlight in the sky.
A little light.
"Woo!"
A sudden cry of grief stunned the two people sitting in the carriage.
Horus quickly stopped the camel in front of him.
They all looked at it curiously. It was very well-behaved and responsive all the way, but at this juncture, it kicked forward and stopped walking.
At this time, its broad lips continued to make some screams that sounded like panic. Tuvia noticed that the camel's lips and body were trembling violently.
It seems that there is something in front of it that it is very afraid of, preventing it from moving forward.
Horus also discovered this detail. He and Tuvia looked at each other, and they both saw deep doubts in the other's eyes.
"Park it here. It's not far ahead. Let's walk there."
After taking a look at the timid beast in front of him, Horus could only nod, agreeing with Tuvia's decision.
He jumped out of the carriage first, and then reached out to help Tuvia down. This seemed to be a habitual action between them.
A white hand was held by Horus, and his eyes were filled with some complicated light!!
Tuvia didn't pay attention to his expression, because the action just now was a habit between her and Jungst. She didn't feel anything was wrong.
"Let's go." Tuvia interrupted Horus's gaze. She let go of his hand and walked quickly forward.
"We have to come out before dark, otherwise the consequences will be serious." Horus easily followed Tuvia's pace. At this time, he had already put away his cynical expression and put on a serious face.
Analyze the problem carefully.
"So we need to speed it up so we don't have to look at things we shouldn't."
Animals are always more alert and alert than humans. They can always smell danger easily and may even have seen some things that humans cannot.
Therefore, Tuvia could tell from the look on the camel that there was definitely a lot of danger inside, and there were many eyes that they couldn't see that seemed to be staring at them closely.
After walking for about half an hour, the two finally reached the end of the date palm forest and arrived at the legendary abandoned village.
The situation here is basically the same as described by the local people, except that after more than ten years of exposure to wind and sun, the scene at this time looks even more dilapidated than what they said.
The layout of this village is square, with rows of houses neatly arranged on both sides, and a not-so-wide road in the middle. It's called a road, but it's actually just an unbuilt dirt road.
The doors and windows of the houses on both sides have long been removed, allowing a clear view of the environment inside.
It seems that in order to save resources, the relocated villagers removed the door panels and used them in their new homes.
The walls inside the house are all black. It seems that it has been baptized by fire, which is why it looks like this.
There is a smell of decay everywhere. Because this village is also surrounded by woods, there is not enough sunlight all year round, so over time, some of the remaining things slowly decay.
"Be careful, don't look around, and don't look back." Horus reminded in a low voice beside Tuvia.
The latter looked at his face, and his expression showed some doubts at this time.
She didn't ask much. The best thing in such an environment was to keep her mouth shut. Since she had encountered such things as time travel, what's so strange about meeting some lonely ghosts?
She wasn't afraid, but in order to be able to walk to the temple behind the village smoothly, she didn't want to cause trouble.
The two of them were silent all the way. The result was better than they expected, and the two of them successfully reached the door of Sedes Temple.
But neither of them let go of their guard at all, because they both felt deeply that this was when the danger really began!!
