I rode my horse all the way south and finally found avina under a dead ancient tree. Her horse fell to the dead tree because of exhaustion, and avina was at a loss when I found her.

    As it was getting late, I dismounted and saw avina curled up on the ground shivering.

    "It''s all right, I''m coming," I comforted

    Avina saw me with tears in her eyes.

    "We''ll stay here tonight and get to shiptown as soon as dawn tomorrow," I said to avina

    Avina nodded. Then we two found some dead branches. I lit the dead branches with my Firestone and made a campfire.

    I spread the sleeping bag hanging on the horse. When I finished this, it was dark all around.

    Avina snuggled up beside me and I gave her half of the bread in the horse bag.

    I drank some mead, which is my last treasure.

    Tonight, the moonlight is weak. Avina and I recall our time on the island. Maybe that time is the best memory in our hearts.

    "Lark, I''ve been feeling like something''s following me lately. I feel very insecure," said avina

    "It''s all right. I was like you many years ago. At that time, I just learned how to become a mercenary from heathed. I was naturally afraid of ghosts. However, the test of old heathed that night showed me how to overcome my fear."

    "I''ve never heard you talk about what kind of test." avina looked at me with great interest.

    "It was a vampire''s tomb, and old heathed locked me in. I was the only one left in the dark tomb, but there seemed to be countless evil spirits around. People felt insecure when they were unarmed and could not see the surrounding situation clearly, and I was just a young man who had not been involved in the world. I was afraid and I was afraid Curse, I did everything to embolden myself. "

    "And then?"

    "Early the next morning, old sised found me sleeping in the tomb. From that day on, he decided to accept me as a disciple."

    Avina was amused by me. She asked me how I did it.

    "In fact, I didn''t feel well that night. I was afraid that a vampire or ghost would pop up around me at any time. I was ready to fight at any time, but I lost to sleepiness. I don''t know when I fell asleep unconsciously. Old heathed told me after many years that I was the second person who could fall asleep in that tomb in so many years."

    "Who''s the other one?"

    "Ha ha, the other is old Heather himself. In fact, the so-called fear is just to scare himself. Even if there are ghosts, what should happen will still happen. It''s better to face it calmly. Besides, a person is not scary when he is alive. Will he become stronger when he becomes a ghost?" I said

    "That''s true."

    "Well, it''s getting late. Go to bed early. I have a vigil tonight. You don''t have to worry."

    "I''m afraid you''re sleeping," avina joked

    "Don''t worry, I won''t let you get hurt."

    Avina went to bed, and I kept a vigil by the campfire.

    Watching avina fall asleep safely, my mood relaxed a lot.

    I don''t know how long it took, I actually fell asleep. I suddenly found that avina was missing, and I immediately became nervous.

    I saw green flames everywhere, which were similar to ghost fires. Not only that, these green flames are still moving.

    I drew the sword of punishment and was ready to fight at any time.

    The number of ghost fires increased until some of them came near me. Through the faint campfire, I finally saw the appearance of these ghost fires.

    In fact, these are just scarecrows, but they are not ordinary scarecrows. It is a kind of thing called ghost scarecrow, because some ghosts parasitize among these scarecrows.

    This is why these ghost scarecrows can emit green light. I quickly mounted the war horse.

    I mounted the war horse, rushed to the place with green light, and waved the sword of punishment to kill it.

    Walking through the darkness, I was like a dawn lightning tearing these ghosts apart.

    Suddenly, I didn''t know where the horse''s hoof tripped, and I suddenly fell off my horse. However, these ghost scarecrows did not stop and quickly surrounded me.

    My leg is hurt, it''s not very convenient to move. I can only swing and chop desperately.

    Seeing these ghost scarecrows around me, something unexpected happened to me.

    Fireballs cut through the darkness and hit the ghost scarecrows. Immediately, the scarecrows were swallowed by the fire and screamed.

    It was Natalia who helped in time, which I never thought of.

    For a moment, these ghost scarecrows that had been surrounded suddenly disappeared without a trace.

    I was overjoyed to see nataya and immediately came forward to say hello.

    "Thank you, you saved my life," I said

    "Don''t hurry to thank me, where''s avina?" said nataya

    It turned out that not long after I fell asleep, avina woke up.

    When she saw me asleep, she didn''t wake me up, but planned to keep vigil instead of me. But just at this time, there was a cry not far away.

    Avina listened to me and decided to overcome her inner fear. So she lit a torch and walked in the direction of the sound.

    The sound was sometimes silent, sometimes strong and sometimes weak. Suddenly the cry stopped, and avina only felt a numbness behind her. She turned slowly and saw a little girl with green light staring at avina.

    Avina was in a cold sweat. She didn''t think there was a ghost.

    But soon avina calmed down and decided to become a real mercenary.

    She ran after the little girl, but the little girl was fast. In this way, one after another, until she came to a cliff, avina almost fell off the cliff.

    The little girl disappeared out of thin air, and avina looked at the scene.

    Here is a big waterfall, under which a small lake is formed.

    Avina didn''t know where it was. She was confused, just like before she met me.

    She wanted to call my name, but she was really frightened by another scene in front of her.

    Tens of thousands of ghosts, evil spirits, resentful spirits and ghost spirits emerged from the lake. Avina was too frightened to make a sound.

    Nataya and I followed the traces left by avina all the way. I don''t know if I can see avina again. I''m worried about her safety.
