209 The Resentful Soul
Summer is always the best time to climb the peak of Hoska. Every year, starting from the high sunny month, the town of Ivastide at the foot of the peak of Hoska will continue to welcome pilgrims from all over the world. It will not be until the mid-fire moon and heavy snow blocks the mountain road again, these pilgrims will gradually dissipate.
Of course, some pilgrims will choose to live here forever, spend the whole winter in this northern town, and embark on the pilgrimage again in the coming year.
Today is no exception. After entertaining several new faces who have never seen before, the hotel owner Wilhem once again welcomed two acquaintances.
"Hey! Isn't this Filina or that one? Why, I'm going to climb another seven thousand steps this year?"
"Ah, it's Wilhem," Sawyer greeted him, ignored his name and placed the backpack behind him heavily on a chair before raising his head, "Yes, but Old Will, I'll give you a suggestion. It's better to clean up your small hotel in two days. In a short while, many big people will come here."
"Big man?" Wilhem curled his lips, "How could any big man come to such a small place? Even if a lord comes to visit the Greybeard Masters, he will not spend the night in my small shop."
"Hey, believe it or not," Sawyer shrugged, smiled slightly and stopped discussing the topic. He changed his subject and started talking to Willhem: "Old Will, are there any strange rumors in this town recently?"
"Rumor?" Wilhem frowned, looked Sawyer up and down, and shook his head: "No!"
Sawyer: "…"
Is it the difference between you and telling me directly that there is something happening here?
The girl next to her couldn't help but stand up: "Hey, Old Will, don't underestimate people, we are both very strong!"
"Yeah, you two are indeed very strong. If you can walk on the Holy Mountain, your physical strength will definitely not be bad!"
Wilhem nodded, and Filina covered her face and retreated.
There is no way to do this. After all, compared with other cities and towns, the information in this small town under the holy mountain is still a bit blocked. In addition, Yu Weishang, who had the ability to "eliminate" before, was actually very kind to Wilhem's actions.
At least, he did not reveal the information casually, so that Saoya and the other two took risks without any risk. At least in Wilhem's heart, he was still very protective of Saoya and Filina.
Sawyer looked at Wilhem's firm face, sighed helplessly, and leaned over Wilhem and asked quietly: "Old Will, is there something wrong with the tomb next to you?"
"How do you know!"
Wilhem exclaimed, then hurriedly covered his mouth, looking at Sawyer in surprise.
"Don't be so nervous, I'm also hearing the news from the alert, so I'll come and take a look."
Sawyer patted Wilhem on the shoulder and threw the blame on the unlucky alerters without any psychological pressure. After all, the alerters were the group most sensitive to these supernatural phenomena.
Sure enough, when he heard the word "Guardian", Wilhem immediately calmed down a lot, and the surprise on his face also dissipated a lot. Instead, he looked at Sawyer with a gossip on his face: "Who, are you very familiar with the Guardian?"
"Of course, I also know Islahn and Toran."
Sawyer shrugged and added to his heart: I am indeed very familiar with the game.
"Toran?" Wilhem exclaimed: "Thoran, the demon nemesis?"
"The nemesis of the demon clan? That's right, it's him!"
Sawyer was stunned at first, then nodded. He didn't expect that the Toran, who was so good at playing soybean in the game, was so famous in this world.
It’s not a big deal that Sawyer is not a question. After all, I didn’t want to contact the Warden Organization at the beginning. I just got to know the Warden Organization’s Big Five, and I didn’t care about this organization anymore. I don’t know that Tolan’s reputation is normal.
Although I don’t know who Islahn is, after hearing Toran’s name, Wilhem’s trust in Sawyer instantly exploded. Perhaps in the heart of this somewhat simple man, those who can know the demon nemesis Toran must be all very strong and decent figures!
Wilhem opened two bottles of honey and handed Sawyer one before he started talking slowly.
It is roughly the same as what Soya expected, but the actual situation is much more complicated, and it also involves another story.
The story begins very old-fashioned. In this not-so-rich town, there is a pair of siblings living in the mountains. The sister goes up the mountain to collect herbs every day, while the younger brother works in the sawmill in the town. Life is a bit boring, but at least it is quite comfortable.
However, just last winter, his younger brother Nafei, who worked in a sawmill, suddenly fell seriously ill. In order to treat his younger brother, his sister Ruida resolutely braved the wind and snow all over the sky and went up the mountain to collect herbs.
However, Ruida never came back after he went there.
Later, with the help of the people in the town, Nafei survived this winter, but she went crazy under the blow of her sister's disappearance. She stood on the bridge south of the town every day and looked at the mountain where Ruida often went to collect herbs.
However, in March this year, the villagers who went out to fish actually fished out Ruida's body from the bottom of the river!
Coincidentally, just when Ruida's body was caught, Nafi happened to stand on the bridge south of the town and witnessed this scene in full.
Nafei was crazy on the spot. After dancing and roaring for a while, he actually fell from the bridge. When the townsmen fished Nafei out of the river, the poor man had no breath.
But the story didn't end here. On the night when Nafi drowned, someone saw the ghost on the Zhalu Mountain in the east of the town!
The legend of ghosts spread in the town through Nafei's death. The next day, several brave townsmen went to the outside of Zhelu Mountain together, but they all ran back in the middle of the night, and they were still yelling words like "ghost" and "Nafei is back"!
The whole town was blown up, and everyone thought it was Nafi's soul back. At first, there were kind-hearted people who brought flowers and braziers to Chalu Mountain to pay homage to Nafi, but they found that Nafi seemed to be much more tyrannical than before they died!
Most of the townspeople who went to pay tribute were driven back. Several townspeople who stayed there to persuade Nafi were knocked out by the "Nafi's soul", stripped away all their clothes and threw them down the hillside.
