Chapter 2 The Foggy Mountains, the Mountain People
Yan Che flew up the rock wall, and after flying for only a few hundred meters, he couldn't see the rock wall, and he saw that he had already flown to the top of the mountain. He stepped lightly onto the top of the rock, and found that the soles of his feet were no longer hard stones, but a layer of dirt on them. Squatting down, I could smell the scent of grass and vegetables in the dirt. Sniffing it closely, Yan Che also sensed the breath of a human being.
"How can there be someone on the top of this mountain?" Yan Che was a little surprised, and couldn't help but be vigilant. The green wolf then followed, jumping behind Yan Che. Yan Che told him that there seemed to be people on the top of the mountain, which also confirmed that those under the rock believed that the steps were carved out to allow people to go up and down the mountain. There was no human figure in sight in the fog, so Yan Che walked in front, and the green wolf followed, groping on the top of the mountain within a radius of only a few hundred meters.
Zhao Yige reached the top of the mountain after the two reached the top of the mountain and walked into the mist. He withdrew his sword from its scabbard and shouted "Your Excellency" in place, intending to call out to Yan Che. However, Yan Che did not reply, and the hazy mist seemed to absorb his voice, so it could not be transmitted far away. Zhao Yige had to walk in the fog.
This fog is indeed strange, in addition to the extremely low visibility, it also seems to affect the flow of breath. Zhao Yige could sometimes feel a faint trace of qi, and sometimes felt that he was already deep in the labyrinth. However, when he thought about it, the width of the rock was no more than 100 paces on the left and right, and the area on the top of the mountain was not very large, so he could always meet people.
Zhao Yige just thought so, and from the shaking of a stone under his feet, he concluded that someone nearby was approaching him. She looked left and right in the mist, and saw a figure faintly in the mist. Zhao Yige just wanted to blurt out Yan Che's name, but suddenly found that there was only one figure, and Yan Che should be accompanied by a green wolf. Out of vigilance, he called to the figure, then placed his right hand on the hilt of his sword. The voice entered the mist, and the figure did not change. I don't know if I didn't hear it, or if I heard it but deliberately didn't move.
In order to test the other party, Zhao Yige pulled out his sword and aimed at the side of the figure with a qi blade. The sword qi rushed into the mist, but it could not disperse the mist. The reddish sword aura passed past the figure, and the purpose was certainly not to seriously injure the mysterious man in the mist. Seeing the red sword qi passing through, and the figure still didn't move, Zhao Yige could conclude that the person was definitely not Yan Che, otherwise he would definitely recognize his sword qi. He also could see from the calm posture of that figure that the other party must be a cultivator with a deep Taoism, otherwise, when he saw the sword qi he swung, ordinary people would make big moves because of fright, and they would not be able to be so calm and calm like this. If Zhao Yige can't feel the specific location and breath of the other party, then in the same way, it is unlikely that the other party will know his specific location.
Zhao Yige thought that he had encountered an enemy, and he was in the territory of the Yun Kingdom, so it must be the cultivators of the Cloud Kingdom who were waiting for them early. Thinking of Yan Che and the green wolf who had no news, Zhao Yige was a little anxious, worried about the comfort of the two, and he didn't care about spending it with this mysterious person, so he planned to rush in to see it.
Zhao Yige first hit the figure in the mist with his palm qi, but the figure did not react, and still stood vaguely in the mist. Zhao Yige raised his sword horizontally, already expecting that this was the enemy, so he came to the figure in front of him in a vertical stride, and the sword in his hand was about to slash at the neck of the figure, and he was surprised to find that the figure in the mist was actually just a black mist in the shape of a human!
When Zhao Yige was puzzled, the black mist quietly dissipated, and Zhao Yige suddenly realized that this must be the enemy's trick. Then he held the sword in one hand and watched around. The hazy fog can also make people lose their minds, lose their direction, and feel like the world is spinning. In an instant, a black figure appeared in the mist again, Zhao Yige used the Red Tiger Slash, and a red tiger-shaped sword qi rushed into the mist, accompanied by the sound of the tiger roaring, the figure disappeared again. However, Zhao Yige knew in his heart that the move just now must have been in the air again. Now he seems to not know the true face of Lushan, only because he is in this mountain. If you stay in the fog all the time, you will inevitably be played by the enemy. He immediately ran to the top of the hill, trying to find Yan Che.
Just as Zhao Yige was running, he noticed something strange in his right hand. Looking down at his hand, he found that his right hand holding the sword had a black tentacle crawling on the back of his hand, and the tentacles were squirming as if they were alive. Zhao Yige immediately used his anger to bounce away the disgusting-looking tentacles on his hand, and the tentacles fell to the ground, and he actually fled, making Zhao Yige wonder what it was. Just as she shifted her attention to the tentacle that suddenly appeared and slipped away, Zhao Yige noticed that a hidden weapon was flying in the fog, and the speed was so fast that she couldn't see what the flying secret weapon looked like. He raised his sword to block, and the hidden weapon touched and rubbed against the sword in his hand, emitting shiny sparks, and then flew into the fog.
Although he couldn't see what the flying hidden weapon looked like, judging from the feeling of fighting, Zhao Yige thought that it was a large ring prop. He was about to resist the next sneak attack, but when he raised his hand, he noticed that a black spot had appeared on the back of his right hand that had been crawled by the tentacle before, and it seemed that the tentacle was a poison, and he had been poisoned. The enemy did not give him a respite, and the same hidden weapon flew again. This time, Zhao Yige saw clearly the flying hidden weapon, which was indeed a ring. He was ready to shoot down the flying ring, but he never thought that the flying ring would split in two during the flight, and he would be caught off guard. The sword fended off one ring, and the other smashed into his chest.
Although Zhao Yige used qi as a barrier to counteract the damage, the flying ring smashed on his chest, which still made him feel pain. The right hand also lost its strength due to poisoning, and the face in the hand fell off and stuck on the ground under his feet. And the ring that struck him, like the tentacle, actually stood up on its own, rolled on the ground, and disappeared into the fog.
Zhao Yige believes that he can no longer continue to suffer from the enemy, and now he can only get out of danger by finding the enemy. Zhao Yige pointed at the two acupuncture points on his right shoulders and elbows with his fingers, first sealing his qi veins to prevent the poison on his palms from spreading to his heart and lungs. Then he clenched his left hand into a fist, ready to explode his aura. It seems that he has understood that only by using the qi wave when the aura erupts can he break through the surrounding fog, which is also the fastest way to find the enemy's position. Although this will accelerate the spread of toxins in your body, it is also the most effective and direct way.
Zhao Yige roared, and a powerful aura erupted from his body, and the red qi wave blew away all the fog around him. When the fog blew away, Zhao Yige also saw a figure. This figure was definitely no longer the humanoid black fog it used to be, because this figure was retreating with the fog that was blowing away. In the process of retreating, she had an unobstructed view of the entire mountaintop, and then she saw a house appear on the top of the mountain, and the figure went to that house.
Zhao Yige pulled out the sword on the ground, walked to the front of the house, and found that the door of the house was ajar. Zhao Yige got ready and broke into the door, thinking that someone inside would suddenly shoot cold arrows, but he didn't want it to be empty inside, only simple furniture was placed. When Zhao Yige was puzzled, he noticed that someone outside the door was about to enter, so he immediately turned around and took out his sword. As soon as the sword blade turned, it was actually Yan Che who appeared, and was startled by Zhao Yige's actions. Zhao Yige also hurriedly stopped, glad that he had not accidentally injured Yan Che.
"My lord, are you okay?" Zhao Yige asked about Yan Che's situation, after all, this place appeared by an unknown enemy.
Yan Che replied, "What can I do?" I've seen this house, there's nothing peculiar, let's go back. ”
Seeing Yan Che so calm, Zhao Yige felt strange. This mountain top is not big, he fought with the enemy just now, Yan Che should be able to detect it, why is Yan Che acting like nothing happened on the top of the mountain now? The most important thing is that the green wolf is not by Yan Che's side.
Zhao Yige then asked, "Dare to ask my lord, what about the other guard beside you?"
Yan Che replied, "Oh, he has already descended the mountain early. ”
After Yan Che finished answering, when he turned around, Zhao Yige suddenly shot at him and slashed at his back with his sword. The sword qi slashed through the wooden door, splitting the wooden door in two, and Yan Che also spun around in the air, dodging the sword qi. After Yan Che landed, he said to Zhao Yige a little puzzled: "What are you doing?"
"What are you doing? You're not an adult at all, watch me beat you to your original form!"
Zhao Yige rushed out of the hut, and his aura washed away the broken wooden door. Zhao Yige held a sword to duel with Yan Che, and then clinged to the other party in the fog, not giving him a chance to breathe. The sword moves are fatal, and each sword is aimed at Yan Che's vital point, and finally forces Yan Che to move seriously. As soon as Yan Che made a move, he used his breath and finally revealed his flaws. It turned out that Zhao Yige had concluded that this was the enemy's disguise from Yan Che's answer just now, and there were a total of four people who went to Yun Country this time, not three, and the hidden person hiding in Yan Che's shadow was the one who was hiding. After Fake Yan Che fought with Zhao Yige, the disguise of his body and face began to disappear because of the use of his breath, revealing his original face. The pretender was a man dressed in black, and seeing that Zhao Yige had seen through him, he finally decided to fight back.
He first made a seal on his chest with both hands, and a cloud of black mist appeared in his hands. Then he opened his hands, and two people who looked exactly like him appeared beside him. It seems that this is the reason for the appearance of a humanoid black mist in the fog. The strength of these two clones is not high, and Zhao Yige used two moves each to break them up. Just as he was about to make a move at the man, the rings that appeared before appeared from the fog again, and many more appeared at the same time, so that Zhao Yige could only deal with the flying rings first.
The flying rings flew in an orderly formation, and Zhao Yige disrupted them with his sword qi, and they were still able to fly again after they landed. Constantly fighting with Feihuan, Zhao Yige gradually felt powerless, and it seemed that the poison on the back of his hand before began to spread all over his body. Then she became a doppelganger, and one of the rings passed through her left hand and was put on her wrist. The ring could also be retracted freely, and after falling on the wrist, it began to lock, making Zhao Yige's left hand unable to exert strength. Then two more flying rings went down towards him, Zhao Yige jumped up to dodge, and the flying rings stopped at his feet, just put into his ankles, and controlled his feet again. At this moment, Zhao Yige couldn't move.
Seeing this, the man in black stretched out his palm and pounced in the shape of a tiger's claw. Zhao Yige threw out the sword in his hand, and pierced the body of the man in black with his qi sword. Unexpectedly, this man in black was also a clone, and after being pierced by a sword, he turned into a scattered black mist. Then, the tentacle jumped out of the black fog, and it landed on Zhao Yige's face in one fell swoop, knocking Zhao Yige to the ground.
After falling to the ground, Zhao Yige's eyes were covered by tentacles, and only his right eye could still see through the gap in the tentacles. After he fell to the ground, he began to lose consciousness, and it seemed that the tentacles had begun to poison him. The more he tried to struggle, the tighter the rings around his limbs became. Finally, before he lost consciousness, he saw the man in black approaching, and before he could see what the man in black was going to do to him, he closed his eyes.
In the end, the tentacles crawled away from Zhao Yige's face, and the rings that covered his limbs also broke away from his body and disappeared into the fog together. On the top of the mountain, only Zhao Yige was left lying on the ground.
