But very quickly, all the muscles in my body tensed up, because as I went deeper into the crowd, the sounds of breathing became more and more intense.

This was not a nervous hallucination, but a real sound.

right in the middle of these scarecrows... It was here that the echoes of the song continued to reverberate in the air.

The sound made my hair stand on end, but I still took a deep breath and slowly approached it.

I felt as if I had grasped onto something, and couldn't back down even more.

As I was walking forward, I saw a light yellow circular object slowly rolling towards me.

At first glance, I couldn't tell what it was, but upon closer inspection, I let out a scream and subconsciously retreated a few steps.

That round object was actually a skull. It was just that because it had been separated for too long, it had already undergone some changes and turned slightly yellow.

The skull rolled to my feet, and the deep eye sockets seemed to be staring at me.

In that instant, I was scared to the point that I was covered in cold sweat. I didn't dare to hesitate and wanted to go around the skull on the ground.

At this moment, the breathing continued. There was no wind in this area, so why would the skull roll over on its own?

Also, who could this skull be?

Upon closer inspection, this skull was not ordinary. There were some symbols engraved on the skull, the skull, the skull, and the two cheekbones.

These symbols were carved with sharp objects such as knives, and they went deep into the bone.

Moreover, although this skull was quite old, the symbols engraved on it had only recently been written on it. It wouldn't last more than a month.

I don't know what these symbols mean, but I have a faint guess about this skull.

I frowned. After seeing the skull roll to my feet, there was no reaction. I carefully continued forward.

The closer I got, the louder my breathing became. The sound stirred the fear in my heart, causing my movements to become even more rigid.

At this moment, I was extremely nervous. While I was staring ahead, my peripheral vision was constantly observing my surroundings.

See if there's anything around here worth investigating or guarding against.

However, at this moment, a white shadow suddenly appeared in front of me.

It was a white fox, at the side of a scarecrow, its back to me, its body moving as if it were fiddling with something.

Looking at this white fox, I finally understood where the heavy breathing came from. To my surprise, it was actually from the fox.

After hearing my footsteps, the fox pricked up its ears and looked in my direction. A murderous light flashed in its eyes.

Logically speaking, foxes were something that was very afraid of humans, so they shouldn't display such hostility towards others.

However, this fox seemed to be protecting something, seemingly unwilling to be violated.

When I saw the fox in this state, my heart rose. Could this thing suddenly attack me?

However, I soon realised that my worries were unnecessary. The fox only glanced at me for a moment before continuing with its work.

At this moment, the fur all over the fox's body was standing on end, ready to explode at any moment.

I took a deep breath and walked around to the side of the fox. From this angle, I could see what the thing was doing.

Soon after, I discovered that there was a yellowed skull under the creature's claws. It was playing with it under the claws.

Beneath the body of the fox, I could vaguely see some bones. Since the skull was that of a human, then the scattered bones beneath the body of the fox should also be human.

Animals can sense something unusual in something, can see something that people can't see.

According to the records on the Evil Theurgy, all living beings had the ability to see through Yin and Yang, and their eyes were filled with intelligence.

However, as one grew older, one's eyes and soul would slowly be fooled by the secular world.

As a result, he slowly lost the ability to pierce through Yin and Yang.

According to the book, as wisdom grows, some things become invisible because the heart becomes cloudy.

Often human intelligence is bred with a certain desire.

However, animals were different. Even though they had been living in the depths of the mountains all this time, they were still far from being as intelligent as humans.

Even domestic animals, such as cats and dogs, had the ability to understand Yin and Yang.

And at this moment, the white fox was fiddling with the skull. Could it be that it found something on top of the skull?

This pile of bones, if I'm not wrong, is most likely the bones of the Uncle Zhang s that were lost that night.

There should be no mistake. Two sets of skeletons, two missing corpses, and the symbols engraved on their heads must have been written by their adoptive father.

As for the reason why my foster father is like that, I don't know. I only managed to see through a few things from the book on Evil Theurgy, and have not reached the point where I can see through what my foster father is doing.

However, I feel that the symbols engraved on the skull are definitely recorded on that book.

But even if I could find the symbol now, I don't know what it would do.

Just as I said, the words in this book are intertwined in a very tricky way. If you don't look at the front, you wouldn't even know what it means to look behind it.

After staring at the fox for a long time, I suddenly felt that the gloomy eyes of the surrounding people had become even more obvious. They were all looking at me.

It was as though these scarecrows had come back to life. With life on their minds, their beast-like gazes made my entire body turn cold.

At that moment, the white fox in front of me suddenly howled. Glimmers danced in her eyes as she stared at me before she left.

At this moment, I could clearly see the skull on the ground. It was the same as before, with symbols carved on it.

After staring at the skull for a long time, the gazes of the surrounding people seemed even more intense.

I felt as though something was slowly approaching me from behind me. Looking at my surroundings, I felt even more gloomy.

Raising my head to look at the sky, I realized that night had already arrived. It seemed that I had to hurry back.

Before I could even take a step forward, I suddenly heard a creaking sound...

The creaking sound was the sound of the fox's claws rubbing against the skull.

However, the voice was different, as if coming from the throat.

At this moment, the skull in front of me, while I was watching helplessly with my eyes, suddenly flipped over.

This process was extremely slow, but it almost made my heart jump out of my chest.

I felt a chill down my spine and my scalp tingled. You know, from beginning to end, there was no wind.

However, the skull seemed to move without any wind. Even the creaking sounds came from the skull …

It is already late, and I knew that a lot of strange things would happen in this mountain.

He had been too busy watching these scarecrows that he hadn't even noticed something as important as the weather!

At this moment, I really wanted to give myself two slaps, but it was useless to say anything now.

He could only run away and go down the mountain. That was the most important thing.

But this time, I didn't turn around …

Because my body seemed to be restrained by some kind of power at this moment. No matter how hard I tried, I still felt powerless.

It was as if his body was no longer his and he couldn't move at all.

My heart trembles. At this moment, my body is suddenly unable to move. What should I do?

I tried to struggle, but the feeling that my body wasn't my own only grew stronger and stronger. I could even feel that my lips couldn't move.

He couldn't even do such a simple thing as talking. He couldn't even feel his own breath. He was doing it on his own instinct.

At this moment … Finally, he heard a series of whining noises coming from the distance, as well as the rustling sound of leaves being blown by the wind.

Did the wind blow...

It was not a good thing for the wind to blow at this time …
