Path of the Dead Prequel: Wings of Silver

The endless dark clouds behind the sunset began to overturn, engulfing the orange and purple horizon. Behind the darkness, a pale moon loomed, and it was already approaching night. A few passers-by were walking alone on both ends of the dilapidated streets. In the deep alleys, there was the occasional noise of someone's car blowing out a tire. Soon, a head full of curly hair stuck out of the window upstairs and shouted loudly at the bottom. Scolding, several little kids laughed and gradually ran away. The kitchen lights start to come on in every house, and it's meal time. The air was filled with the smell of honeydew, a Georgian dish, and a flock of spotted pigeons in the sky, each looking for its mother, returned to its nest one after another.

What a beautiful southern scenery, so nostalgic, full of laziness and weariness. I know that most of the people and things I saw have passed away, but I can feel all kinds of feelings in the nightmare, such as the smell of flowers, the smell of oil smoke, and the clear and clear sound of eight channels, which can reach my eyes and my ears. But it was unexpected. Today I opened my eyes to what Xiaoprey is.

Krys yelled, asking us to stop grindingCome on, it's time to get up and do something practical for her. I also know that this is why I was dragged into the nightmare, but her arrogant look is really annoying. What kind of taste do I have in other time and space lines? How could he find such a tigress as his beloved wife? I feel very sorry for this unfortunate self. I was so anxious that I had to stand up. Suddenly I felt that I couldn't lift my arms, and half of my body was limp. Krys heard my shouting and stepped forward

"Why are you wearing a delirium bracelet? Look at your arms!"She lifted up my sleeve and saw that the bracelet had penetrated into my skin and my forearm had turned black and blue. She quickly grabbed the widow's dagger and cut off the string, and said angrily:"I said so much just now, but you only care about smoking. What? Those who drag people in are called nightmares, and those who are dragged in are called nightmares. The two are different! In the nightmare, you are actually a ghost! Carrying this kind of thing is limiting yourself. God knows how you became a flying bird?"

After removing the delirium bracelet, she seemed to have thought of something else. She hurriedly asked us to throw away the mines and various special bombs, leaving only cold weapons such as flying sickles, short blades and steel drills, and said that as long as the demon is suppressed, All the weapons of the soul type will also burn themselves to death when they are bombarded. She thought I knew this, but I didn't know anything.

"Then don’t we have no chance of winning? In order to attack Gui Lie, these ammunition were collected with great difficulty! Now you throw it away just as you say, but you don’t give me any reason?"I took off my stab-proof clothing, dug into each pocket, and pulled out a few familiar claws that I had missed the other day, and asked Krys,"What about these things? Do they have to be thrown away too?"

She reached out to take the white porcelain rooster and looked at it in her hand, as if she didn't know what it was. When she heard that it was tracking an evil spirit who knew how to hide its traces, she waved to me and said it was okay to keep it, and sneered:"Who did this? stuff? Looks super cute"

"This is our detective, he is a direct descendant of the Brovek family and belongs to the pan-world."The widow shrugged and replied

"I don’t know it, I’ve never heard of it. Seeing that I was begging her, Krys stretched out his arms, pulled me to his side, held his head between his armpits, and said,"I said that before because I thought I would still be in the vortex, but obviously, In fact, we were dragged into its memory by the sheep, so the initiative is in Ligeia's hands. Let me tell you what the complete Xiaoyang is."

Suppose that a person needs to walk slowly from the east to the west of the city. The body will experience a transition from full strength to fatigue, and there will be a feeling of seconds passing in the mind. The sky will also change with the rotation of the earth. These are all three-dimensional creatures. Experience. In reality, time does not exist at all. It is a cyclic dilemma specially designed by humans for calculation, and they bind themselves in it. Because they are inferior, human beings can only experience life, old age, sickness and death step by step. However, In these ordinary lives, I don’t know whether it was a joke from God, or it was intentional by the Creator. One day, a special creature called a bird of prey appeared. In their field of vision, there was no concept of time, only time. Because Xiaozhi is higher than humans, they are advanced creatures whose souls reside in three-dimensional bodies, and their actual consciousness has reached the five-dimensional space. Therefore, Xiaozhi's vision is difficult for ordinary people to understand.

So what is the world they see like? This is I have to use easy-to-understand examples to explain. Have you always played computer games? Then you have also saved chapters because of trivial matters? With this understanding, it becomes much easier to understand. When Xiaoprey enters the simulation In the dream space, you can select nodes from your own or other people's memories. They appear in front of you like frames of water lanterns and mirror flowers. Pick the points of interest and use a method called jumping on the stars to easily enter. Enter this strange world. During this period, the birds of prey can bring in or take out items at will, in order to change the future.

Because of this ability, birds have been hunted down from ancient times to the present, regardless of the real world, Or are the high-level officials of other worlds aware of their existence, so they try their best to reduce the number of Xiaozhi to less than ten, and to win over them for their own benefit?

"That's how Xiaozhi came to be. And it is wishful thinking for you to find the other half that does not exist. Krys ruffled my messy hair with a smile and said,"You were an accident. You were lucky or unlucky to get it, but in the final analysis, you are still a mortal. The Bird of Prey is neither a canopy nor a dazzle, nor a diamond." , it is continued by blood or inheritance"

"Does the accident you are talking about refer to Alyosulfur? But the person who gave it to me was AC, and she claimed to be Black Narcissus."

"That's what you said, not me. It is difficult to restore the essence of many things just by looking at the surface, coupled with the inherent narrow understanding of human beings. She then let go of me, put out the cigarette butt in her hand, and said,"However, Xiaozhi can not only drag people into nightmares, but can also be led into nightmares by others. Naturally, there are primary and secondary scenes." That's how we are now, still Lao Yao's home field."

When she finished saying this, the afterglow of the setting sun happened to hit her back. I was turning sideways and just saw some changes in Krys' body. First of all, the face became more refined and full of charm based on the original. The second is the hair, which seems to be a lot longer, and looks lighter and smoother; finally, the body is a little thicker than before. It is not the skinny figure of girls, only women over thirty A symmetry that can only be achieved by those born in the fifth generation. Women of this age have reached the extreme level of development in all aspects, and their frames have become significantly heavier. Even if they do not train often and just do some physical exercise, their muscles will appear and their strength will be greater than when they were young. Some. Even if she was thin in the past, she will become plump and more feminine by then.

I saw this scene when I helped her stand up in the Black Maple Tunnel, at least the appearance is close. Now for some reason, she It gradually became transparent and it was difficult to maintain the false appearance. This also showed that the woman hiding behind Krys was an old woman much older than me. No wonder her tone and behavior were so unrestrained. Seeing that I couldn't move my eyes, she felt a little secretly Surprised, I lowered my head and saw the signs of my exposure. I quickly grabbed the wrists of me and the widow, and rushed forward. A puff of black smoke appeared in front of me again. The three of us and I plunged into it. When we came back to our senses, , has left the lawn where the rooster roams, and is standing on a strange crossroad street

"Is this somewhere in Peachtree Corners City? The waitress looked around, and soon saw the sign of a bookstore called Downton at the bottom of the alley, and asked:"If we don't find that old demon quickly and fight to the death, why are we running down the street?" I'm ready"

"You are the one who leads the lamp. We are just following the magic. How can we find the enemy? Only you, a restaurant girl, can make eye contact with the old demon."Krys said many unfamiliar terms in one breath, and when he saw us looking at each other, he began to explain.

As a group of people who are independent from other forces and have no official signature, the Xiaozhi naturally has unique rules. Leading the lamp is to guide the soul. Humans are described as guides in nightmares; the engraving originally refers to the reflection of sunlight falling on metal vessels, indicating that this guide has characteristics that others do not have; as for the magical movement, it refers to the way of movement, and the flying bird has no body. Consciousness, so there is no need to walk, she can jump between nodes, so she can come and go as freely and as fast as a gust of wind, leaving no trace.

Among the three of us, only the waitress has become more than half a demon, so she has a mark on her body. Both demon spirits and corpses are evil creatures different from humans. They can sense each other's existence. Seeing that it was dragged out of the vortex, the sheep was furious. It must find us and kill them all before it can go back.. Then it will search for it in its home field, and naturally it will focus on the half-demon full of sinister energy. Every time the search is successful, the distance between us will be narrowed, until we finally meet on the same road.

Seeing that we are full of curiosity, Krys finally Getting impatient, she rudely interrupted the question, saying that this common sense was enough for me, and that she was unlikely to bother us again in her life. At the same time, she began to taunt the waitress, telling the secrets of the dark world. They were all controlled by the higher-ups, and the disciples below were so ignorant that they couldn't even understand what Xiaoying was. The situation was so pitiful that she couldn't help but want to open a study class to solve everyone's doubts. Just as she was laughing like this, she suddenly His face darkened and he looked into the distance anxiously.

"What's wrong? Is the female ghost chasing her?"I held my mid-dagger in my hand, prepared to fight, and watched with her.

"No, this doesn't make sense."She scratched her head, stretched out her hand to hold our sleeves, hid in the side alley, poked out half of her face and continued to watch, muttering to herself:"Why are there bone collectors and black warriors wandering around here? ? Where did they come from?"

What she saw was a garden in the middle of the street. There were three children running in it, chasing and playing with each other. There were also a few ordinary people sitting among the flowers and talking to each other. If you look further away, you can see two flat buildings. The building that stood up had a blood-red image of Satan painted on the side, holding a broken bowl in his hand, with the words"One More Bowl" written underneath. In short, I didn't see any extremely evil people.

"Natural enemy, stop asking!"She grabbed me back and started walking towards the end of the alley, intending to completely hide herself in the dusk. We were naturally frightened by her panic and kept asking questions along the way. Krys couldn't stand the harassment and had to curl his lips. Let’s talk about it. The methods are like flying birds, mysterious and insignificant, and they are loopholes in the time and space line. If they continue to develop like this, wouldn’t they be invincible? The bone pickers and black warriors mentioned above are given by God. Natural enemies.

The seventeenth century was a prosperous era for the flying beasts. There were once fifteen world-renowned masters. Except for the real world, the underground world was powerless against such thieves who came in and out of the back door. I hate it deeply. Since there are thieves, there will naturally be spies. This is how these two kinds of people came into being. The Bone Collectors and the Black Orders jumped out of the Five Elements and are not in the Three Realms. They have neither ambition nor profit, just like in the dark world. San Vitale is a public policeman who pursues justice and maintains balance. He often hunts down the birds of prey in the nightmare. If you are unfortunate enough to encounter them, it will be a disaster. The bone collectors usually have a smile, and they will use a sentence Can you ask me to get a haircut? He asked Xiaozhi repeatedly. If you answer, he will keep chasing you. As for the black priest, he is a priest who closes his eyes and meditates with a dark Bible in his hand. As long as Xiaozhi passes by, he will chase you. They will be captured by his claws like dry wood. Because they consider themselves to represent justice, they do not hide it at all and have obvious characteristics. The purpose is to tell Xiaoying that this is our territory. You who don’t know what is good or evil, It's time to run away.

After hearing Krys's general description, I couldn't help but wait and see again. Sure enough, there was a skinny priest sitting in front of the nursery in the garden in the middle of the street.A fat man stood in front of a nearby water bank. But they are so ordinary. If we fight, the young and energetic me should be able to beat the two of them to pieces, so there is nothing to be afraid of. Thinking about it, I walked back to Krys and asked,"It doesn't look like there's any threat.""

"You know what the heck, the Bone Scavenger doesn't bother to fight with you at all. He can release the hunting dog Besasa at will. Anyone who relies on sleeping souls to survive will only die if he encounters him!"She started to walk away in fear, and said:"As for the black warrior, it is even more terrifying. All the soul-sitters who unfortunately encountered him died, and no one was spared. Therefore, I don't know where his methods can go."

When the widow heard about Berthasha, her face turned pale, and she obviously knew what it was. Her boss, Bolton, was the kind of person who could release hunting dogs. This set of evil spells had been used on Miss Lycugu in the past, and the purpose was It is to take away the sharp eyes of the abyss ghost.

Belshasa, the snake-like succubus in voodoo, often appears in dreams and is also suffered when people are in a coma, but does not actually exist. The classic horror film Elm Street Nightmare, also called A Nightmare on Elm Street. The ghost king Freddy in the movie is based on Berthasha. She is the legendary king of dream control. She is invincible and invincible. No matter you are a ghost or a human, you will die if you encounter her. undoubtedly

"We have to escape. Why are you in a daze? Hurry up and take us away."Due to my recklessness, the two people in front of the garden in the middle of the street twitched violently, stood up slowly, and started walking towards the alley. Krys's face was covered with sweat, and she scolded me and said she would come back later. Looking for me to settle the score, I kicked the waitress angrily and started yelling. Seeing that I was scolded by a female prostitute who said she was a few years younger than me, and she was pushed and hit. Finally, I couldn't bear my bad temper anymore. I just wanted to tease her and tease her a few words. There was black smoke rising in front of me again. Maybe the widow saw that the two of us had turned the corner, and the situation was pressing. She jumped again, took our wrists and landed on another unfamiliar street. It seemed like a sprinkler truck had just driven here. , the road was wet, and the last afterglow reflected on the puddles, becoming a warm color before the night came. Following the line of sight upward, at the end of the pavilion wooden house, there was a clock tower with a white exterior wall, which rang with a bell urging people to go home. Evening bell. I suddenly remembered the original appearance of this building.

This ghost place was the church that Ingram rode to in The Nightmare. He went out one afternoon and put a pack of books on the luggage rack. We tied them up and then clicked the door of the building. In other words, the corner we were in was actually wandering around this guy's attic. As we looked around, more and more familiar scenes emerged, including the crabapple flowers peeking out of the wall. ; The rusty door in the deep alley, the green door of the post office. Yes, this street corner is just forty meters away from the house of the corpse dragger.

"Could it be that we have fallen into a trap? Plunging headlong into not Ligeia's nightmare, but Ingram's?"I was secretly surprised, leaned against the wall, and began to try my best to find the gray attic in my memory. Seeing my panic, the two of them asked why. I had no mood to argue with Krys, so I had to give my The observation came out.

In my opinion, the crew-cut man wearing torn jeans should have ended his life by throwing himself into a lake. The last person he went to see before his death was the priest of that church. The two of them were quite similar. Friendship, Ingram seemed to explain all the funeral affairs to him. If it is 1950 like the airship advertising banner says, then the vicious incident has not happened yet, and he may not have met Ligeia yet, and naturally he has not We went to Diming Station. The three of us were invited to break into the demonic realm. Could it be that he was the one we were going to face?

This person was different from the female sheep. His hands were full of calluses and his IQ was not high enough. It just showed that he was a tyrant. He was a master who was very good at using a knife. He fell madly in love with Ligeia in his early years and followed her step by step, killing many people. Because of this, women felt extremely afraid and had to stay away from him life or death. I remembered When Lao Dai was discussing the 2201 file in the motel a few days ago, he said that there is a large number of such evil people who become evil ghosts after their death, and they are extremely difficult to deal with.
