Chapter 42: The Mist Array

As the sun approaches, the night gets darker.

The bright moon hanging high in the sky was somehow obscured by a large cloud of darkness, making the night sky appear darker and darker.

"The hill in front of you is Stone Iron Mountain, because the stones in this mountain contain a lot of iron, so there are basically no big trees growing here, only a small number of weeds can survive, and the lair of the wandering mountain thieves is on the top of that mountain. ”

About three miles away from Shi Tie Mountain, three teenagers and a horse hid in a small forest, following the direction of Zhao Yuanbai's finger, Mu Yangyun looked forward with all his eyes, only to see a hill about 400 meters high, full of bare and lifeless hills.

Seeing such a scene, Mu Yang touched his chin and frowned. There are not many places like Shi Tieshan where you can hide your body, and if you are not careful, you will be easily discovered by the other party, which is extremely unfavorable for night exploration.

Zhao Yuanbai and the others saw that Mu Yang was in thought, so they stood quietly aside and waited not to disturb, and it didn't take long for Mu Yang to have a plan in his heart.

"Xiaoqi, don't go to Shi Tieshan this time, Yuan Bai and I will go, you stay here and take care of this claw Huang Feidian to meet us. ”

"Ahh

"Little Instrument, I didn't mean that. This Shitie Mountain is too empty, there are very few places to hide, and to be honest, you are much less than me and Yuan Bai, two people who often wander in the jungle, and I will lay some small traps here that can drag others down, so you can stay here and take care of the horses and these traps, don't be damaged by some nocturnal beasts, in case Yuan Bai and I are discovered, you can still meet us if you escape back here. ”

Seeing Mu Yang say this, Mo Xiaoqi nodded in agreement, but he still asked with some unease, "What about the materials for making traps, if they are made now, it won't be too late in time." ”

"Haha. You can rest assured. Look!"

Mu Yang took out a bag from the bag on Huang Feidian's back and opened it, Zhao Yuanbai and Mo Xiaoqi took a look and found that it was filled with many delicate objects used to make various small traps.

"Hey, you came out with a treasure bag, why do you have everything. ”

"Haha, be prepared. ”

"Muyang, then let's hurry up the time arrangement. Zhao Yuanbai's face was overjoyed, and he was ready to set up a trap with Muyang.

"Wait, don't be busy setting traps yet, Brother Yang, do you have a Yuan Stone on you?"

At this time, Mo Xiaoqi suddenly stopped Mu Yang and the others, although his actions made Mu Yang a little confused, but Mu Yang didn't ask much, and took out the lower grade spirit stone from his arms without feeling distressed and handed it to Mo Xiaoqi's hand.

"I only have ten lower grade Yuan Stones on me, do you see enough?"

"Hehe, enough is enough, just three pieces. Since I am here to meet you, it is not enough to have a trap to delay the pursuers, so you can see. By the way, Brother Yang, you can also borrow me the giant tooth dagger. ”

After Mo Xiaoqi took the megalodon dagger and shook it around quickly a few times, he slashed a tree that was about the thickness of a human thigh, and then cut off three wooden discs of the same size and thickness from the trunk, and then sat directly on the ground and carved them on the wooden discs with the megalodon dagger.

Mu Yang and the others, who didn't know it, came up curiously, only to see that the movements of Mo Xiaoqi, who looked chubby and a little clumsy, were extremely dexterous, and the giant tooth dagger held in his little fat hand flew left and right, making the two of them a little dazzled.

In a short time, the three wooden plates were carved with a series of complex and exquisite patterns, which seemed to have a special arrangement, and there was a small hole in the middle of the wooden plate, the size and shape of which were just right for the lower grade of the stone.

"Haha, it's done! Master, my craftsmanship is still so good. ”

Mo Xiaoqi stood up with a smile, and after returning the giant tooth dagger to Mu Yang with a proud face, he embedded the three lower grade yuan stones in the groove in the center of the round wooden disc one by one.

"Xiaoqi, what are you?" asked Muyang suspiciously.

"This is the array plate, which is used to arrange the base of a small mist array, but the materials are limited and can only arrange the second-grade mortal array, but in case there are chasing soldiers from the Flowing Mountain Bandits, it is more than enough to use this mist array to delay them. Mo Xiaoqi said proudly.

"Xiaoqi, you are not only a refiner but also a formation mage!!

Mu Yang and Zhao Yuanbai exclaimed in unison, but Mo Xiaoqi shook his head again and again in denial.

"No, no, no, I'm not a formation mage, real formation mages don't need to use the external force of the formation plate to make the formation base when arranging the formation, as long as they have the Yuan Stone, they can use their special techniques to directly arrange the formation. Moreover, only those low-grade mortal formations can be arranged with the help of the array disk, and even if the high-grade formation only has a formation disk, it cannot be arranged if it is not a formation mage. ”

"Then how did you come up with this formation?"

"This alchemy is the same as refining, after reaching the grandmaster level, the auxiliary of the formation is sometimes used when refining the treasure pill and the treasure weapon, Muyang, you also know, my stereotypical father is a refining master, and the few low-grade formations I know are learned from him. ”

"I see, but even so, you're very powerful. Why didn't you say it earlier, but you would really hide it. ”

"Hahaha, sir, I'm not low-key!"

Mo Xiaoqi crossed his waist and raised his head and laughed, his nostrils almost didn't go up to the sky, and his villainous appearance made Mu Yang and Zhao Yuan Bai roll their eyes for a while.

"Alright, what are you doing stupidly with the fat man there. Why don't you set up the formation quickly!"

"Damn, Xiaobai, you kid did it on purpose, and I was called a fat man. Master, I see that you are purely jealous, Brother Yang, he is a second-grade alchemist, and I am a fourth-grade alchemist, the four special existences of the Guwu Continent, the two of us account for half, and you are the most disadvantaged, hehehe!"

Mo Xiaoqi, who was choked by Zhao Yuanbai, kept chattering in his mouth not to be outdone, but there was no pause in his hand. Zhao Yuanbai on the side pursed his lips disdainfully and did not answer again.

When Mo Xiaoqi selected a vacant lot and placed the three array disks in a special arrangement, he urged the soul power to activate the formation.

Almost instantly, a large cloud of dense fog emerged from the three arrays and spread outward, quickly enveloping an area about a mile around them before no longer expanding.

At this time, Mu Yang and Zhao Yuanbai, who were in the thick fog, looked around and found that it was difficult to discern the direction for a while in this formation, and they could clearly feel that the soul power had also been suppressed to a certain extent, and they could not easily rely on the soul power to find a way out.

This mist array is very good for blocking the enemy, and if you add a trap with more lethality, it is simply a big killer. But Mu Yang suddenly thought of a question, so he asked loudly towards the location where Mo Xiaoqi activated the formation.

"Xiaoqi, what if we can't discern the direction in the formation?"

"It's easy!"

As soon as Mo Xiaoqi's words fell, the dense fog in front of Mu Yang and the two suddenly dispersed, revealing a half-meter-wide winding path, and at the end of the road was Mo Xiaoqi who was smiling and waving at them.

"Xiaoqi, can you control this formation at will, can this formation be taken back after the formation is arranged?"

"Well, as long as the base of this formation is within the range of the soul power of the person who sets up the formation, it can be controlled as you like, and of course it can also be withdrawn. ”

After Mo Xiaoqi finished speaking, he began to use his soul power to terminate the operation of the formation, and soon the dense fog around him dissipated. Mu Yang walked to the place where the array disk was placed and looked at it, and found that the yuan stones on the array disk were only slightly dim after the formation was running just now, and it was roughly estimated that these three low-grade yuan stones should be able to maintain this mist array for about half an hour, which was completely enough.

Mu Yang, who was relieved, praised Mo Xiaoqi fiercely without hesitation, so beautiful that this kid's snot bubbles were about to pop up.

Then Mu Yang and Zhao Yuanbai quickly set up more than a dozen lethal traps within the scope of the formation in order to be safe, and when everything was ready, Mu Yang took out a small jade bottle from the bag on horseback and poured out three mellow pills from the inside.

"This is the breath pill that my grandfather refined, which can make the person who takes it hide his breath and not be easy to be noticed, although it is only a four-grade pill, but as long as the movement is small and it is not touched head-on, it is difficult for people whose soul power is not very strong to detect the existence of the person taking this pill. The effect of this pill can last for about an hour, so we must complete the exploration within this time. ”

After the three of them took the pill, Mu Yang and the others immediately rushed towards Shi Tieshan, and disappeared after a few ups and downs, while Mo Xiaoqi led Huang Feidian to a relatively hidden place, quietly waiting for the two to return.
