The Spirit World

Chapter 116- Strange things happen frequently?

It would take some time to go from Bailing Mountain to Yuzhao Mountain. Chang Yufeng asked Jack some specific details, such as whether Dada was there, whether Lin'er was there, where they met, where they encountered danger, and what happened afterwards?
"I met Senior Dada one night. I escaped from the altar and came to a forest. Senior Dada was rushing to the altar. I was being chased, and Senior Dada helped me out. Several people on the opposite side besieged Dada alone. Their leader was very powerful and they cooperated well. Senior Dada couldn't stand it. We fled all the way, but were finally caught up. Senior Dada told me that I could come to Bailing Mountain for help, and he would try to rescue the people in the altar again. He also told me that I must need the help of the young master of Bailing Mountain. On the way, I met the woman in red who was heading to Yuzhao Mountain, who was Lin'er as the young master said. But we were still being chased, so we separated again." His wound was very deep, and even the old doctor who helped him yesterday was of no avail. It was almost the depth that would leave scars.

The horses ran very fast. On the road, more carriages were galloping. Occasionally, a few dragon carriages passed by. They were usually the vehicles of merchants from the principality.

"What kind of altar is that? Did you observe it when you escaped?" Chang Yufeng pulled the reins. The sword at his waist had some extremely smooth curves. Although he didn't know the name of the sword, it was definitely not an ordinary thing.

He still had no weapons that suited him. He had learned how to use the imperial swords, spears, sticks, and clubs, as well as the principality's staffs and swords, all by himself within half a year. Although this was a terrible "gift" to a large extent, he still had no sword to start with.

When I was practicing in Bailing Mountain, I didn't need such a precious sword, but now that I was outside, I needed it. And I needed it very much.

He was surprised when the chief steward mentioned that the evil spirit infection was frequent. The evil spirit that could make people lose their minds was almost impossible to reverse, unless a special exorcism could be performed.

The further away from Bailing Mountain, the more it feels like leaving a paradise.

A myriad of voices, conspicuous costumes, and various races gathered together. They galloped along the important passages of the empire. Every important road was almost connected into a network. All roads led to the capital of the empire, and then radiated from various nodes of the empire, forming important trade routes, main roads, expressways, and even one-way roads.

"I haven't observed it. I was in a hurry to escape, so I couldn't stay for too long. However, I know the situation inside the altar. I don't know the structure, but I know it's bright inside. It doesn't look like a cave, but more like a palace. All the people are imprisoned on a high platform. The light is sometimes bright and sometimes dim, as if there is day and night. But we don't have more freedom to observe carefully, so everyone only knows the general idea."

Jack galloped on the road and looked at Chang Yufeng. The horses in Bailing Mountain were all carefully selected breeds, and their speed was unmatched by ordinary horses.

However, there was another thing galloping on this avenue, and that was the Ranger cavalry of Downton Technology. Their speed instantly outpaced the horses, and they even disappeared without a trace soon.

Although it was something only wealthy families had, such a terrifying power really scared Chang Yufeng.

Chang Yufeng certainly knew that kind of thing, that was the motorcycle of the present world. He had a growing feeling that he and Lin'er were not the only ones who traveled to this world. There must be others who relied on their unique talents and abilities to create something that should not exist in this world. Although this kind of thing was driven by spiritual power, or magic was used as a storage energy, it could be controlled by ordinary people.

A Ranger cavalry passed by Chang Yufeng's horse on its two wheels, creating a huge wave of air. Even though he held the reins, the horse was still very surprised. Fortunately, he was able to control it and pull the horse to prevent it from panicking.

Looking at the iron mount running past, Chang Yufeng marveled at the genius of the other traverser. Compared to him, the gap was even a little unbelievable to him, and this gap that could not be made up made him hold the reins tighter and tighter.

Although the spiritual world still uses spiritual power as its source of power, being able to create such an amazing invention and subvert it only takes a moment.

He heard that the Principality was already testing a new type of weapon, a spiritual firearm. It was light and easy to use, and as a military configuration it was incredibly powerful.

If the empire has not yet realized the horror of this thing, the consequences will be disastrous.

More often, the tutor of Imperial Government Affairs [Chen Fan] would mention some past events of the Principality and the Empire in class, and more often the frontier magic research and development and cutting-edge technological innovation of the Principality and the Empire. Among them, it was mentioned that this kind of firearm had been continuously improved for ten years before it was militarized. The technological importance of Tang Zilong, the new generation of genius leader of Downton Technology, is almost surpassing some of the explosive weapons invented by his father.

He could already foresee that the "car", a more stable and more versatile object, would never be missed by such an ambitious inventor.

By then, the horses will be eliminated, which means a change in the absolute gap in combat power between the two countries.

Of course, the empire's strategists must have thought of what he was thinking. That kind of amazing invention, once everyone in the spiritual world knew its power, the structure of the two countries would have to change.

Anyway, Chang Yufeng could only use shock to describe his mood. His heart was itching and he felt uneasy for a moment as he watched the cavalry going away.

"Are you okay, young master?" Dongfang Mingxia, also known as Ah Qi by the chief steward, asked.

She finally spoke to herself.

"It's okay." Chang Yufeng looked at the Ranger cavalry that had already left in a cloud of dust. Although he was filled with emotion, business was still important.

The three of them continued on their journey, running and stopping along the way, all heading in the direction where Dada was.

Yuzhao City.

At this time in Yuzhao City, many people gathered in the square. The Law Enforcement Department was issuing an announcement, which read: Starting today, in order to ensure the quality of life of Yuzhao City residents, entry and exit of Yuzhao City will require a special pass issued by the Law Enforcement Department and unified registration. If you are a foreigner, you need to show a trade certificate or an entry and exit permit between cities. In order to ensure that all legal residents enter and exit the city, there will be a 24-hour shift. I hope you are aware of this.

In order to make people understand more thoroughly, the staff of the Justice Department visited every household, issued unique passes, and registered them. Some people said that something big happened recently, so the Justice Department imposed a curfew and restricted entry and exit.

When people asked him what happened, he stammered and couldn't answer.

The past few days in Yuzhao City were no different from ordinary days, and the members of the Symbiotic Tribe did not feel anything unusual.

Just as everyone was arguing about whether anything strange was happening, many people gave their opinions.

"My pigs have lost their appetite these days and are starting to lose weight!"

"You call that a strange thing? I think mine is the strangest. The clothes I hung out to dry in the yard were inexplicably covered in dust! The clothes hanger was fine and had not fallen over for several times."

"Hey! That's because the dog dug up your nest. I saw a dog urinating where you were drying clothes, so dirt stuck to it. It's not surprising! You just wanted to be more convenient and didn't want to change the place."

……

There are many strange things like this, but there is almost nothing strange about them.

At this time, everyone gathered together was a little overwhelmed. As after-dinner gossip, this was much more interesting than the usual boring life.

Someone pointed out this.

The beggar he had been helping disappeared.

Only then did everyone realize that the beggars who usually begged in the city had basically disappeared without a trace. No one knew where they had gone. Perhaps they had gone to other cities to beg?
This is not surprising.

Beggars have cheap lives.

People who are already struggling to make ends meet may not be able to help them, let alone pay attention to them.

However, he has been living in the city where you live for a long time. You can't avoid seeing him, and you can't see him too often.

People will eventually have the desire to beg, but not every time. Beggars should also understand this, so it is normal to move around to beg.

The man spoke again.

"The beggar said that when he recovered from his illness, he would find a job in Yuzhao City and stop being a beggar. He had done bad things when he was young and had been in bed for three years. Now he knows the hardship. He has been a beggar for so many years and has survived and become a new person. He also helps me with some things on weekdays. But he hasn't come for many days."

Everyone thinks,
Beggars’ words cannot be trusted completely, and there are many beggars who try to gain sympathy.

Maybe he left with those beggars.

As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together. When this happened to the beggar, no one found it strange.

Not surprising at all.

At least, in their opinion.

The person who pointed this out walked straight towards the Justice Department without even turning back to look at those who were still discussing.

He wants to report the case.

Disappearance case.
