Nolan and the Secrets of the Empire Chapter 54

After not seeing it for a few days, the Fox Fairy Temple still stood on the original hillside, but it was more dilapidated and looked like a pile of ruins in the night. The river flowed into a wide body of water behind the mountain.

Tonight, there was no wind or rain, the moonlight was bright, the lakeshore was rocky, the lake water was calm, and there was an indescribable chill. Nolan Yan got off his horse and stood by the lake for a long time, staring at the deep blue water for a long time, and finally remembered what was so strange about this place.

It rained heavily that night, and they did not go close to the lake to take a closer look. King Qi and Nolan Yan and his entourage were all from the north and were not very familiar with the scenery of the south. They did not realize that something was wrong: this lake appeared in the mountains and there was fresh water flowing into it, but there was no grass growing on the water's edge, no reeds or water plants, no water birds living there, and even very few fish and shrimps. The whole lake was like a pool of stagnant water, without any vitality.

Thinking about what the villagers did tonight, Nolan Yan suddenly had a terrible guess.

Not long after, the sound of splashing water was heard in the river. Nolan Yan looked carefully and saw that there was indeed a white shadow floating in the middle of the river.
