  Chapter 33 Shatao

   Nightmare Bell?

   Li Ang hesitated slightly, and took the bell from Cheng Juxiu.

  The bell is made of bronze, simple and old, covered with green patina. I thought that when I touched it, the mottled copper rust on it would be easily peeled off, but after getting started, I realized that the copper bell is quite heavy and strong, as if there is an invisible force pulling it closer to the ground.

   Alienation, of course Li Ang knew what it was.

   Xuegong divides all kinds of evil spirits into four categories,

   They are the "demon" of animals and plants, the "demon" of humanoids, the "different" with no life in appearance, and the "creepy" that is difficult to classify.

  The Academy and the Zhenfu Division will collect information, collect and hunt down these four types of evil spirits.

   During this process, some aliens are difficult to destroy, or they may cause huge damage after destruction, or they are simply used for value, but they are retained by the Academy and the Zhenfu Department, and they are contained in a proper way.

  When necessary, the Academy and the Zhenfu Division can even use these known alienated objects to deal with unknown aliens.

  The number of the Nightmare Bell, Yi-Wu-Lu Qisi,

  Yi represents its attribute, Wu represents its level, and Lu Qisi represents its serial number.

   At the bottom of the paper, there are detailed instructions for Nightmare Bell.

  [Containment Procedures]: Yi-Wu-Lu Qisi Nightmare Bell, which needs to be placed in a locked iron box with a diameter of ten inches, and stored in the secret warehouse of Fushi, Ganzhou Township. The use of the nightmare bell must be approved by the regimental envoy of the Zhenfu Division, or the deputy envoy of the regiment. In an emergency where the regimental envoy and deputy envoy cannot exercise their powers, the extension can be extended to the judge level, but no further extension can be made.

  [Description]: The Nightmare Bell has a shape similar to a bronze bell, and its material is copper, tin, and lead alloy. The alienated object is in a long-term dormant state in a normal state, but when held by a humanoid creature, pressing the top of the bell, and shaking it continuously for up to six times, it will be transformed into an active state, making the humanoid creature closest to the user Frozen into stagnation.

  Continue to shake, it will always maintain the stiff effect.

  The specific time of freezing and stagnation depends on the physical strength of the user and the subject, the degree of mental toughness, the distance between the two parties, and the interference of sound waves.

  The weaker the subject's physique, the less firm the mind, the closer the distance, the smaller the sound wave interference from the surrounding environment,

  The longer the freezing effect of the Nightmare Bell, the longest record is three hours.

According to the test subjects (both prisoners on death row), they heard the ethereal copper bells coming from afar in the state of stiffness, and their mood fell into an indescribable peaceful joy. Sometimes, the test subjects even asked to release the nightmare bell on them again , to immerse yourself in tranquility and peace of mind.

  Multiple experiments have proved that the freezing effect of the Nightmare Bell does not cause irreversible negative effects on the subjects.

   It will also not be affected by other containment objects, such as Yi-四-九二八·Food Chime, or Yao-四-一十三·Silent Reading Tong.

  After its essence is thoroughly explored, it may be used in a long-term plan to treat those who suffer from spiritual damage and fall into the disease of losing their souls.

  [Remarks]: Nightmare Bell was found in the home of Dong Fengmao, who was in charge of managing the City God Temple in Chongzhou City in the second year of Taiping. Dong Fengmao's family of five died from the nightmare effect, and no traces of fighting or strange smells were found at the scene.

   It is speculated that the Nightmare Bell may be related to the Wuyue Temple, a demon sect that disappeared in the troubled times at the end of the Sui Dynasty, and may be one of the props used by the temple to perform some special rituals.

   Still needs further investigation.

   Above are all the descriptions of Nightmare Bell.

  ‘Really, an alienated object. '

   Li Ang held the copper bell and swallowed subconsciously.

  Both because of the first time I came into contact with alienated objects, and because of the record of the death of Dong Fengmao's family, the former owner of the copper bell, in the paper description.

   "As long as you use it properly, and put on a light body armor, you can deal with most threats."

  Cheng Juxiu said casually: "The compass shows that the demonic aura in Shatao Village is not too strong, and it is also level five.

  A team of soldiers in armored horses from the Zhenfu Division, plus me, and dozens of hundreds of farmers and hunters, can handle it.

  You just need to follow me and treat the wounded in Shatao Village. "

"no problem."

  Li Ang nodded, "The medicine box is also brought."

"That's good,"

  Cheng Juxiu lifted the iron box, "Judge Niu, let's go."

  Niu Wenshu nodded, and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Zhenfu Division, mobilized bows and arrows, soldiers and horses, and sniffing hounds, and left documents to prove that, finally, he led a forty-man cavalry team and drove out of the city.

  ——

   The feeling of galloping fast on a war horse is not very good. It is constantly bumping and shaking, and the strong wind is constantly blowing in the face. It is not as easy as imagined.

   Li Ang pulled the rein, tried hard to recall the horse riding skills he had learned in the state school, and barely followed behind the team.

  The distance of 15 miles is neither short nor far. After crossing the bridge and driving through the mountain road, when the sun was three poles, the team of Zhen Fusi arrived at the head of Shatao Village smoothly.

finally reached.

   Li Ang let out a long sigh of relief, carried the medicine box on his back, and got off the horse from the saddle, secretly glad that he didn't fall off the horse just now.

  Cheng Juxiu and Niu Wenshu jumped off their horses, their movements crisp and neat. As soon as the soldiers landed, they began to guard their surroundings, observing the road terrain, and a scout entered Shatao Village on horseback.

   "Is this Shatao Village?"

  Cheng Juxiu stood in the middle of the dirt road in the country, frowning slightly, observing the ordinary village built by the mountains ahead.

  It was noon, but there was not much smoke for cooking in the village.

   In the fields, there are no farmers doing farm work.

   After a while, the scouts returned and reported to Zhou Pingchun, the head of Shatao Village, that he had gathered the wounded in the village and was waiting for the rescue team to arrive.

   "Let's go."

  The country road was rugged, and Cheng Juxiu, with a long sword tied at his side, walked in the front and led the crowd into Shatao Village.

  Beside the well in the center of the village, hundreds of villagers from the entire village were standing, and panic was written on everyone's face.

  Beside the well, there were seven mats, each with a wounded person lying on them.

  As the Zhen Fusi team approached, a middle-aged man with a medium build and a goatee hurriedly squeezed out of the crowd—he was wearing a silk dress with money patterns, which was in stark contrast to the old villagers around him.

  Cheng Juxiu asked casually, "Are you the head of Shatao Village?"

   "It's next. My surname is Zhou, and my first name is Pingchun."

   Zhou Pingchun had a flattering look on his face, and he said respectfully: "According to Shangguan's order, I called all the villagers over.

   Judge you come, Shatao Village will be peaceful.

   Judge, when you come, there will be a blue sky. "

   "I am not the judge, he is."

   Cheng Juxiu saw this kind of flattering country gentry a lot, so he didn't pay attention to it, but turned to look at Li Ang, "Risheng, can these wounded be treated?"
