Jiang Baiyan met up with Old William who had finished his inspection.

Old William asked, "Have you found them?"

Jiang Baiyan shook his head, with anxiety between his brows: "It's been so long, could something have happened? Let's go into the woods and take a look."

Old William's tone was no longer as firm as before: "If you insist on going, I can't help it, but you must swear to me that you will never act on your own. When I ask you to come back, you must return immediately."

Jiang Baiyan said hurriedly: "Okay, I agree to everything, let's go quickly."

Old William then put on his rifle and stepped carefully into the night woods.

The rain became lighter, and it dripped on the raincoat.

Jiang Baiyan took a step back and asked casually, "The sheep you mentioned...are they real? Maybe they are just sheep lost in the farm."

Old William: "They are not ordinary sheep."

"Reed said a lot about Kelly." Jiang Baiyan made up a story seriously, "He said Kelly hated the forest. Has she seen sheep before?"

"I haven't heard her talk about it. She just doesn't like the forest." Old William sighed, "Except for being bewitched by the devil, I can't think of any other possibility that would make her go into the woods after dusk." Jiang

Baiyan asked, "Why would the devil lure people in? Does it only lure girls? It seems that all the missing people are women."

Old William glanced at him, "You have a lot of questions, policeman?"

"Do you think I can use a gun?" He said, "I'm just worried...ah!"

Old William paused, his eyes sharp, "What's wrong?"

"There, over there..." Jiang Baiyan swallowed his saliva and asked nervously, "Is there a shadow? Is this the sheep you mentioned?"

Old William looked over and saw a dark shadow lurking in the dense bushes, with a pair of round eyes leaking out from between the leaves.

He shouted, and the shadow ran away.

"It's a flying squirrel." He was speechless.

Jiang Baiyan said embarrassedly: "I don't know what the sheep you are talking about looks like..."

Old William shook his head, cut off the blocking branches in front with a sickle, and said: "Let's go to the wooden house now, maybe they are taking shelter there."

"Huh," Jiang Baiyan wiped the sweat from his forehead and panted obviously, "That's good."

Old William glared at him with disdain and quickened his pace: "Hurry up, it's not safe to stay in the forest for a long time."

Jiang Baiyan said "Oh" and didn't tell him that behind the tree trunk not far away, the white lamb always stayed there, appearing and disappearing from time to time.

He was really curious, what was this lamb?

Old William seemed unable to see it, or like him, he saw it but pretended not to see it.

Is it really a sea monster in the forest, luring passers-by into getting lost? Why did it appear in the sheepfold on the farm? Is that also part of the forest?

Also, there is a wooden house in the haunted farm built by Robert... "We're here." Old William said, pointing to the cabin in the distance.

This place is old, the wood is dark and covered with thick moss and leaves, like a moldy bread.

Old William pushed open the door and shook off the rain: "This is the cabin built by Frank, maybe there is an entrance."

Jiang Baiyan asked: "Why did they build a cabin here? Hunting?"

"Who knows." Old William knocked on the ground, looking for a possible movable door panel. When he knocked on the innermost part of the cabin, his movements slowed down.

Jiang Baiyan shone a flashlight for him: "Here?"

Old William used his arm to pick up one of the stone slabs, and when the light shone, it was indeed a dark cave entrance. He leaned his head down and made a trumpet shape with his hand: "Frank? Jane? Are you in there?"

There were echoes, but no one answered.

Jiang Baiyan asked anxiously: "What is down there? It's so dark."

"I'll go down and take a look, you..." Old William looked at his small body critically, and waved his big hand, "Just wait here, don't cause me any trouble."

Jiang Baiyan shook his head: "I'm going to find my friend."

Old William thought about it and took a step back: "I'll go down and take a look first, and call you down if there's no problem."

Jiang Baiyan hesitated for a while and nodded in agreement.

Old William jumped down the entrance, and the darkness almost instantly swallowed up the light. The cold and damp air overflowed from the cave entrance, with a faint smell of blood.

Jiang Baiyan turned his head and saw the lamb again.

It stood in the corner, rubbing its head against the wall, as if signaling him to come over and take a look.

Jiang Baiyan walked over curiously, carefully scraped off the black stains covering it with a dagger, and a line of crude engraving appeared in front of him.

Don't believe owl.

Run fast.

"Do you want me to see this?" Jiang Baiyan looked at the lamb and asked, "Who wrote this?"

The lamb: "Me~~~"

It walked out, as if signaling him to follow it.

At the same time, old William's voice came from underground: "Safe, come down."

Jiang Baiyan held the stone slab, moved over, and buckled it.

The lamb walked out slowly.

He followed it.

Of course, he knew that it was very risky to leave with this magical creature (?), but William's danger was not much less.

In Kelly's case, the key is not the cause of her death, but why she appeared in the woods.

Jiang Baiyan does not understand reasoning, but believes in one thing: the only person who can make an adolescent girl go against her will and do something she is not willing to do is her boyfriend.

Girls are stupid and think that this is love.

In fact, it is just the opposite. A man who does not care about his girlfriend's wishes does not love her in the first place. He insists that the girl do this, either to control her or to show off to his friends.

He has seen too many colleagues holding large-scale photos of their girlfriends and boasting about their obedience with pride.

Of course, maybe William did this just because it was fun and he did not think about the consequences, which cannot prove that he has bad intentions today.

But Robert said that when he was lost in his childhood, he once saw a sheep.

He and his friends were both terrified, but in the end, nothing happened to them.

Is the lamb really a demon?

Jiang Baiyan didn't know. So, he decided to follow and see.

Jian Jing followed little Frank, along the stairs built by the tree roots, and returned to the ground.

In his vision, the dark and terrifying forest was emerging with a deep or shallow red light. The light divided the space, and everything became chaotic.

There was a python coiled on the tree trunk at hand, waiting for an opportunity to move, but when she walked past it, the snake's sharp tongue did not catch her scent at all and ignored her.

Little Frank's route was irregular. Sometimes, with a deviation of only a dozen centimeters, it led to two completely different spaces.

If she didn't have the limited card of "borrowing vision", she would have been lost if she just followed.

But now, seeing her follow step by step, although she walked slowly, she was not wrong at all, and he gradually believed that she had become his companion. He

talked more.

"I know you have heard a lot of rumors about the forest." He said, "They are all lies of invaders."

Jian Jing asked, "Invaders?"

Little Frank smiled coldly, "Although you are not American, you should have heard of the cruel history that happened in this land."

Jian Jing complained in her heart, there are too many cruel histories in this place, which one are you talking about?

Little Frank looked up, gazing into the distance, and said in a gloomy tone: "Let me think, when did the legend of evil spirits begin? A long, long time ago? No, that's not the case.

"In the 16th century, European colonists came to the other side of the ocean. They took a fancy to this fertile land and began a history of greedy aggression. Dusk Town was far away from the Atlantic Ocean and was not affected much in the early days. Only a few explorers ventured here, trying to discover unknown wealth.

"At the end of the 17th century, a group of adventurers heard that there was a lot of wealth hidden here, so they organized a team to come and explore. However , when their people entered the forest, they kept disappearing.

"At first, they thought they were attacked by wild beasts, and they thought they didn't take it seriously because they had guns and cannons. But one day, they passed by a forest and suddenly saw something hanging on the big tree in the distance - it was a hanging corpse, and the missing people were hung on the tree dozens of meters high, like ripe fruits.

"People were scared crazy, and rumors spread that there were terrible evil spirits hiding in the woods, taking lives under the cover of night. The ambitious people were afraid and hesitated whether to leave. At this time, a survivor escaped back. He was already crazy and unable to communicate. However, his companions were surprised to find that no matter how badly he was injured, even if he was shot through the stomach, he would heal quickly.

"As you can imagine, once greed breeds, the devil can no longer stop human footsteps. Since then, the unpredictable evil spirits in the forest have made the magic medicine that can heal serious injuries...all kinds of legends continue to emerge."

His tone was soft and unhurried, but the sarcasm could not be concealed in his words.

Jian Jing couldn't help asking: "Then what? " "

In the 18th century, the guns of Lexington rang out and the war broke out. In order to fight against Britain, the Continental Army at that time listened to the advice of a descendant of an adventurer and sent a team of soldiers to the border of the western United States to find the magic medicine that could bring people back to life.

"But the locals denied the existence of the magic medicine and claimed that their arrival would anger the gods. The general leading the team was very angry and arrested many locals and tortured them severely. Finally, someone told the truth under coercion and temptation. The secret was hidden in the Dusk Forest. The gods could not be defeated. Only the fire from the sky could make Him sleep."

Little Frank said: "That day, lightning struck the trees in the forest, and the soldiers poured gasoline on them. The flames burned throughout the forest at an extremely terrifying speed. Thick smoke billowed, flames shot up into the sky, animals wailed and fled, and the trees turned into charcoal. The invaders conquered this land with guns and cannons, but they didn't know..."

"This is not the end." He turned his head and stared into Jian Jing's eyes. "Everyone who has stolen the kingdom of God will be punished. The blood debt must be repaid with blood."

Jian Jing understood.

She asked, "Who killed Kelly, the five children, and the people who came after them?"

"They were sacrificed to the Lamb of God." Little Frank disagreed, "There is no point in pursuing this issue."

Jian Jing said, "Since we are both servants of God, it doesn't matter if you tell me the truth, right?"

Little Frank said coldly, "The sacrifice is naturally completed by the servants of God, and you must do the same when you complete the ceremony."

Jian Jing's heart moved, and she made a difficult decision: "Then, William?"

Her answer satisfied little Frank, and he said, "He can't."

"Why?"

"His soul is no longer pure."

What the hell? Can he speak human language? ? Jian Jing pressed her forehead, suppressed her irritation, and asked, "What kind of person..."

"We're here." Little Frank interrupted her question and stopped in front of a cave.

The entrance of the cave is not big, and only one person is allowed to pass through at most. A faint breeze blows out from inside, mixed with the smell of soil and grass. It is not unpleasant, but there is an indescribable choking feeling.

Little Frank walked in: "Follow me."

Jian Jing dropped the pearls, stepped on them, and followed in.

This is a strange pure white cave, as if it was made up of countless pure marbles, with almost no gaps.

The passage is tall and narrow, a little cramped for a human size, and a little too high.

Jian Jing touched the wall and felt the unique roughness and coldness of the rock. The texture was so smooth that there was no trace of tools at all. However, it was so neatly planned that it could not have grown naturally.

"Where is this place?" she asked.

Little Frank kept walking in, and kept walking in, until he entered a huge cave. Above his head, a beam of bright moonlight shone down, lighting up the dark underground world.

"Welcome to the white kingdom." He spread his arms, "Offer your loyalty to God, bride."

Jian Jing raised his head, and in front of him was a huge tree that towered into the sky.
