Chapter 328 (2/2)
How can such a history be great again? Did the ancient people ever be more ”great” than they are now?
When Jenna was puzzled, a black robed man led two new students through the swamp and dense forest in the valley.
One of the old members came out immediately, first took them to one side to explain, then helped them change into black robes, and brought them here, just like before.
After that, the mysterious rules and words are still repeated, as if this is the whole community.
As the sky darkened, the sun slowly tilted to the West. Although it had not set yet, this place in the valley was already very dark.
All around the forest is dark and quiet, which makes people feel a burst of unspeakable fear. Only the fire in the middle of the open space makes people feel warm.
These black robed people slowly gathered around the campfire, and the smell of medicine in the big pot became more obvious. But with the cold and hunger, the contents of the pot became less annoying.
Finally, the sky was completely dark. In the forest without stars and moon, there was no other light except the flame in the open space. The face was in the yellow flame. The brightness and shadow were so obvious that it looked very different from that in the daytime.
At this time, the shabby wooden house was finally opened, and a girl with black lace veil followed by four black robed people came out.
”Night is coming.”
The voice is sweet and charming. It attracts people's attention as soon as it opens.
”The human fire left over from the twilight age, though seemingly prosperous, is actually in danger.”
”In the face of this endless black tide, we have no choice but to dance with the tide and turn into fish swimming in the black tide, so as to adapt to this desperate world.”
”I am the star in the evening sky, the lantern bearer in the darkness of the last time, the witness across time, and now I will lead you forward.”
”Now, let's join hands in this initial ceremony.”
After that, she spread out her hands and poured the mysterious liquid from a bottle into the pot. A puff of smoke rose, and then the strange and charming fragrance began to spread. Everyone was intoxicated and began to sing hymns together.
Two black robed men took out the tableware, and then gave each person a bowl and a spoon, and then began to fill out the pot of medicine and food one by one.
Jenna took the wooden bowl, and the cooking had become the same as porridge. She still hesitated with the spoon, but the people around her could not wait to eat it.
Is there really no problem?
She hesitated, but those who ate one by one began to turn their eyes, greedily looking at the bowl of food in her hands, with an incomprehensible desire in their eyes.
”Eat while it's hot. It's not good when it's cold.” The veiled girl with purple hair bent down and said kindly in her ear. Her voice was sweet and addictive.
”Well.”
After that, Jenna took a few stutters, and then stood up with the crowd, while the mysterious girl was walking ahead with an orange light.
”Well, let's start the night walking ceremony.”
Standing in the dark forest, the girl said, black robes, white skin, words of temptation, everything is so moving and beautiful.
