Chapter 35: The Mist

The carriage was driving on a bumpy road, and the originally wide carriage was a little cramped because it had three people in it. Inside the carriage, Mo closed his eyes as if he had fallen asleep completely. And the other two are naturally Huiyin and Ali.

After daybreak, the trio returned to town. Unsurprisingly, the entire town has been completely transformed into a 'ghost town' with no one in its place.

To Mo's surprise, his entourage was unharmed. He had already waited outside the city gate with a carriage as he had now commanded.

Perhaps it was because 'Naraku' didn't bother to eat such a small dessert after devouring thousands of residents. Or maybe when he hid by the lake to watch the battle, he was ignored because of his low strength. In any case, since he is still alive, it is naturally a good thing.

After confirming that he was still himself, Mo didn't say much. With a wave of his hand, he drove the carriage back as usual.

And Mo Zai got into the carriage, quickly closed his eyes and fell asleep. With that unguarded look, Huiyin, who was sitting with her, frowned again. What the hell is this guy thinking?

Regardless of what ink is paying attention to. Huiyin felt the feeling of weakness still coming from her body, and sighed helplessly in her heart. Even if you want to do something, it's really not suitable for you now. It's better to act first......

On the road, which was not even smooth, the carriage was still jolting and moving. Before you know it, it's noon.

The warm sunlight fell directly on the crow driving the car, driving away a bit of autumn and winter chill for him. Although it has not officially entered the cold winter now, the weather has gradually become colder. Originally, with his physical fitness, this chill could be completely ignored. It's just that for some reason, today I feel a burst of cold lingering on my body.

Probably because of fear......

He remembered that this morning, he followed Mo's instructions to him earlier, and turned back to the carriage in the town to prepare for the return journey. only to find that the whole town has become an empty city with no people. In a huge town, there are still active creatures, except for some cats and dogs, and they are the only ones left.

That kind of empty and strange situation is really enough to drive the discouraged person crazy out of fear.

Later, when he returned to Mokou, he learned that the entire inhabitants of the town had been buried in the mouth of the youkai overnight. Even he couldn't help but open his mouth wide in faux pas.

And now that I think about it, I still can't help but feel a chill.

Alas, it seems that I still need to exercise more. Just as all kinds of thoughts were spinning in the crow's mind, he suddenly felt a darkness above his head. Well? Are there clouds?

The crow looked up, and then a large cloud of mist slowly drifted in the distance. In the blink of an eye, the sun overhead obscured it. This cloud ...... The crow's brow furrowed, it looked a bit like a rain cloud, is it going to rain?

Although it is early winter, rain is not uncommon. It's just that in the case of rainy days, it is not suitable for rushing.

With a whip in his hand, the crow silently sped up his journey. Now it seems that the only way to find a suitable shelter is to find a suitable shelter as soon as possible before it rains.

Drove the carriage and kept moving forward. Before I knew it, I had traveled a long way. But soon the crow noticed that something was wrong.

It's foggy! Raven looked at his surroundings in disbelief. Because at first, I just wanted to hurry as soon as possible, but at some point, such a fog rose around me.

Wrong! It was still clear just now, even if there were some rain clouds, how could such a fog suddenly rise. And he didn't notice it at first, and he didn't notice the abnormality until he was completely in the fog?

Noticing the strange crow, he slowed down the carriage. Although the fog in front of you does not seem to be thick, it is not very obstructive to the view. But after following Mo all the way and seeing many 'abnormalities', he has already raised 120,000 vigilance against this strange situation in front of him.

Just as the crow continued to drive the carriage cautiously along the road. Suddenly, a dark shadow suddenly sprang out of the woods beside him.

The crow had already been prepared to stop the carriage and avoid colliding with the black shadow. And when the crow stood up to the figure and wanted to draw his sword on guard, he was stunned.

I saw that in front of the carriage, the black shadow that had just come out had fallen to the ground. And look closely, what kind of dark shadow is it? It was clearly a young man dressed as a seriously injured mountain people.

This...... Although the people of the mountains and fields who fell to the ground in front of them seemed to be no threat at all. But the crow still held his hand on the hilt of his sword, watching the other warily. You know, the ability of the yokai can be said to be strange and all-encompassing. Maybe the boy in front of him is actually a monster disguised.

Especially now that you are in such a strange fog, you have to think more deeply.

"What happened?"

One hand lifted the curtain of the carriage, and Mo, who was awakened by the vibration of the carriage, leaned out and asked.

The crow hurriedly turned over and fell to the ground, kneeling down on one knee, "Yes, Your Highness!" When his subordinates were in a hurry, they strayed into a fog. Then the mountain folk suddenly burst out of the nearby woods. The subordinates had no choice but to stop the carriage urgently. Please punish Your Highness! ”

Fog? Mo waved his hand and motioned for Raven to stand up. Then he glanced at his surroundings and frowned slightly. This fog is not a normal mountain fog. Vaguely, you can sense that there is a force lurking in it.

Then he turned his gaze to the carriage and saw the figure lying in the middle of the road.

Just by glancing at it, Mo grasped the other party's situation very well. There were many injuries all over the body, the most serious of which were the back and left leg. Needless to say, the feather arrow on his back was still clearly inserted, and his left leg was also fractured to a certain extent. If you leave such an injury alone, you will die of excessive blood loss within a moment and a half.

"Crow, you go and treat his injuries. It's a talisman for healing injuries, and you know how to use it. Mo pulled out a talisman from his body. Something like this would be of little use to someone of his calibre. But for ordinary people, it can be a life-saving 'elixir'.

"Yes!" The crow took the talisman. Although he felt a little strange why Mo used such a 'precious' talisman to save a people who had never known the mountains and wilderness. But for him, Mo's command is absolute. Since Mo gave the order, as an attendant, he naturally would not have any doubts.

"Hmm." Mo nodded, "When he wakes up, remember to ask him for information." Especially about this fog that we're in right now......"

"Yes!"
