Chapter 22 footprints on the beach

He, alone, walks on the beach at dusk. I can't see anything clearly, I can only recognize it, the white is the beach, and the black is the sea that is brewing with a storm. There is a little light in the distance, which I know is a lighthouse. He used his heart fire to light up the road, but it couldn't be far away, it was only three or two feet on the ground, and he walked carefully. Suddenly, zigzag lightning flashed across the sky.He saw black clusters not far ahead, hehe, is this the "Kingdom of Night", or a stronghold of demons? He saw again that the sand on the road a few meters away from him was full of footprints overlapping vertically and horizontally.

Haha, yes!hurry up!He danced with ecstasy, wanting to tread in the footsteps of those who should be from the past. He exerted all his energy, bursting out with a bigger anger. He hunched over and identified the overlapping footprints with the light of his faint heart fire. Duh!But he cried out in surprise. The vertical and horizontal overlaps are clearly the footprints of beasts.Big ones, small ones, new ones, old ones, extending, extending, I don't know how far.And he stood alone in the middle of the sea of ​​beast tracks. He stood bewildered, losing his original courage; the fire in his heart was even weaker, turning yellow like a fluffy moon, and it couldn't take him a step or two away.

So holding his head, he sat on the sand. He sat, and he wanted to wait until dawn; he believed that among the overlapping footprints of birds and beasts, there must be some human footprints, which can lead to a broad road and reach a place where there are bright and warm people. By dawn, you will be able to identify it. He waited patiently, holding his head, not even glancing at the distant lighthouse.In the dark of night, he believed, it was good to be patient and wait.However, however— Rumbling, he could hear a strange sound that made his hairs stand on end.It wasn't thunder, nor a tsunami. He raised his head abruptly, and saw countless yakshas with blue faces and fangs rushing out of the black waves on the seashore. The yakshas had steel knives in one hand and gold ingots made of human black hearts in the other. Find victims.

He also saw a seductive mermaid following behind Yaksha, with loose long hair and a pair of round breasts, sitting on the pebbles on the beach, singing charming songs. He closed his eyes, and then it occurred to him that waiting was not an option; he jumped up, and with the last effort, he rekindled his anger, planning to find a way to go.But—the black clusters over there flickered and flew out a few lights at this time, and more flew out!The dots of light formed into balls, formed into lines, and finally lined up in four big characters: The Road of Light! Ah!Oh!He cried out in relief. At this moment, another jagged bolt of lightning fell from the sky.It's zigzag!It was about to saw the dark sky into two halves.Under the electric light, he could see clearly that there were some ghosts who looked almost like people, and there were long sticks in their hands, probably some kind of bone from a human body, with green will-o’-the-wisps spewing out from the tips. word.

Under the electric light, he clearly saw some human-like footprints among the overlapping footprints underground, some of which had been trampled in disorder, while others were still clear, as if they were new. His heart beat, and it seemed to be doubled in size, and the light emitted from his heart was much brighter; he saw among the footprints underground some monsters that looked like humans, but were wearing human boots. footprints, and he saw the footprints of little children beside him.Some innocent children have been fooled! However, he also found the footprints of real people buried under the overlapping animal tracks and the footprints of monsters pretending to be humans.And these footprints are heading in the same direction, becoming denser and denser.

He felt more confident, and the idea of ​​waiting for dawn to leave was completely dispelled. Relying on the illumination of his heart fire, he carefully identified the footprints of real people among the messy footprints, and moved forward firmly!
