The next day didn't go well from the morning.

As soon as we set off in the morning, a heavy rain fell from the sky. Although it did not last for a long time, it was extremely violent, which indirectly slowed down the speed of the team. What was even more depressing was that the wheels were still stuck in the quagmire midway, and it was delayed for a while. .

Although Heath released a spell for the team to shelter from the rain in time, the team's journey was still far below expectations.

Captain Aaron planned to arrive at the burial ground in half an hour, but it was more than double the delay, and it was almost 10 o'clock before reaching the goal.

If this alone is enough, it makes people think that they came to the river of dead souls, but encountered bad things...

...

Dead Soul River.

This is the largest river in the Sealed Land. It runs through the entire Sealed Land from east to west, cutting the Sealed Land into two parts, north and south. The Sealed Land passes through it in many places from the south to the north.

At this moment, in front of the Dead Soul River.

Captain Aaron stood in front of a river bank, looking ahead with a frown.

There was supposed to be a drawbridge on the river bridge in front, but now the drawbridge is gone, only the stakes nailed to the river bank and the half remaining rope.

Aaron Knight frowned: "Why did it break, is it because of the previous heavy rain?"

The Valley of the Dead is located on the northwest side of the Sealed Land, and to go there, you must cross the River of Dead Souls.

The knight Kaido asked: "Can you let the wizard think of a way?"

Aaron shook his head: "I asked, and there is nothing the wizard can do."

The Dead Soul River is not an ordinary river. There are countless resentful spirits gathered in it. Even Heath himself would not dare to cross it rashly, let alone bring so many people with him.

The only way to walk through the fortress is to build a suspension bridge with special materials and cover it with magic, so that it will not be polluted and eroded by the ghosts below.

Aaron took out the map and looked at it: "There is a suspension bridge twenty miles away from here, let's go there."

After half an hour.

Aaron frowned and looked ahead.

In front, there was a turbulent gray-white river, and the suspension bridge that should have existed above the river was again empty, except for the wooden stakes on the embankments on both sides.

"What's the matter? Did it break again?"

The location of the burial site is steep and turbulent, and the suspension bridges on the river are often washed away.

Before he could think about it, Aaron took out the map and looked at it, and said decisively: "Go, go to the next place."

The third suspension bridge was nearly sixty miles apart, and the road was not easy to walk. It took Aaron two full hours to come here, and it was already noon.

However, after finally arriving here, the same situation as before was waiting in front of him.

The bridge is broken again.

Aaron looked in disbelief: "Isn't it? Are the three bridges broken?"

Although I heard that the suspension bridges here are not too strong when I was in the fortress, I have never heard of such a situation where several of them were washed away.

"Captain, what should we do now?"

Aaron looked at the sky,

After hesitating for a while, he said, "Let's see another one last. If this one is also broken, we will withdraw first."

"Yes."

Time was running short. In order to lead everyone out of the burial ground in time, we didn't even have time to eat lunch, so everyone ate some dry food and continued on their way.

finally.

When it came to the fourth suspension bridge, it was no longer a lonely wooden pile waiting here. The suspension bridge was suspended on the river channel intact, and the flashing runes all over the bridge showed the integrity of the suspension bridge.

Aaron breathed a sigh of relief.

"Cross the bridge!"

Leading the horse and the carriage, everyone successfully crossed the suspension bridge and finally came to the other side of the river.

There is only a smooth road ahead of Yimapingchuan, and the next road only needs to go all the way forward to pass through this place where the bones are buried, and then reach the destination.

But it's already two o'clock in the afternoon.

Aaron, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, couldn't help but tighten his heart again, and there was a little more worry on his face.

"Everyone hurry up, we have to get out of here before night comes!"

"Yes."

But luck is like this sometimes. If you are unlucky, you will really jam your teeth when you drink cold water.

It was still because of the torrential rain in the morning that the road became extraordinarily muddy, and the wheels of the carriage sank into the mud many times, which took a lot of time each time.

Hurry up and hurry, seeing that night is approaching, but the team still can't get out of the burial place.

In the evening, the burial place.

"Da da da!" The cramped hooves echoed in the woods.

A pair of chariots and horses galloped through the muddy road, the rolling wheels pulled out two long ruts on the ground, and large swaths of mud splashed up.

"Hurry up, everyone, add more speed!"

"Come on, we have to get out of here quickly, it's getting late!"

In front of the queue, Knight Aaron urged him over and over again, with a strong sense of anxiety on his face.

However, just as he finished speaking, he heard a 'click'.

But I saw a row of galloping carriages in the back suddenly swayed, the speed dropped suddenly, and then stopped.

The carriage dipped to one side, and the wheels below got stuck in the quagmire.

The convoy must not stop again.

Aaron frowned: "Go get the wheels out!"

"Yes!"

The two knights jumped off their horses, walked to the side of the carriage and began to lift the body.

These are real knights, and it is not a big deal to lift a carriage or something. The wheels that went into the trap under the two's forge ahead immediately came off the ground little by little.

Seeing that the carriage was about to come out, but at this moment, the opposite wheel suddenly 'clicked' and sank.

The two knights who were working hard swayed for a while, and they didn't grasp it firmly for a while.

Aaron was sweating with anxiety, jumped off the horse and came over: "Let me come!"

But right now.

"Aaron Knight!"

A voice came from the carriage, it was Heath sitting inside.

Knight Aaron hurriedly saluted: "Master Wizard, don't worry, I can handle it right away."

Heath said, "Let's camp on the spot, and we'll move forward tomorrow morning."

Aaron was taken aback.

He hurriedly shook his head and said: "Sir, no, this is the place where bones are buried. There are white bones everywhere, and there is a river of dead souls next to them. These bones are easily corroded by resentful spirits. Once they wake up at night, it is very possible. will be met by us.”

Aaron was previously arranged in the logistics team, mainly responsible for the transportation of baggage between the fortress and the Valley of the Dead. He had personally seen the place where the bones were buried at night, and knew how dangerous it was.

Heath asked bluntly, "Can we get out of the burial ground before nightfall?"

Aaron said for a while: "This..."

It was still no less than two hundred miles away from crossing the Bone Burial Ground, and it was less than an hour before nightfall.

Heath asked again, "Wouldn't it be even worse if we couldn't get out again, fell into the mud pit again, and were besieged by resentful spirits at the same time?"

"It's better to set up camp on the spot and establish a defensive position now, because it's in a hurry when the time comes."

"If it is really unfortunate that we have encountered a resentful spirit at that time, then there is no way to do it."

Aaron hesitated: "But..."

Heath shook his head and said arbitrarily, "No but, just do as I say."

"Yes..."

With the order of Hiss, Aaron stopped traveling, even ordering the knights to establish their positions on the spot.

The knights cut down the surrounding thorny trees, built a defensive fence around the carriage, and even dug a simple trench.

Heath was not idle either, and took out materials to help arrange some defensive magic circles.

When everything was done, night fell.

There was no time to eat a good meal, and everyone still ate some dry food in a hurry as they did at noon, and then rested on the spot while keeping alert.

It's useless to say anything now, just pray that the team won't be so unlucky.

However, maybe the messy gods that everyone prayed for were not reliable, or maybe these gods didn't hear everyone's prayers, let alone answer them.

In short.

The more afraid of something, the easier it is to encounter something.

Bad things still happened...
