Chapter 251: Village in the Mist
Lu Nan was speechless, he wondered if these were the people of the 702 Bureau, a small river could stop them, and he himself had at least five ways to cross the river unharmed.
"Take this talisman and cross the river with me!"
Lu Nan took out five water avoidance charms and handed them one to each of them.
Luo Xingchen took the water avoidance talisman and said disdainfully: "I said that you have any unique skills, it turned out to be a water avoidance talisman." ”
Although he said this, he was still a little surprised in his heart, after all, he himself came from a famous family, so he could naturally see that Lu Nan's water avoidance talisman was the most authentic and the most effective.
Using the water avoidance charm, the five of them easily reached the opposite bank, but the black shadow had already run away without a trace, and Lu Nan could only carefully look for the traces left by the black shadow on the ground.
Luo Xingchen sneered: "This gentleman, may I ask what the situation you are talking about?" Why didn't we see it? When he said Mr., he deliberately accentuated his tone, obviously with mockery.
"That's your stupidity!" Lu Nan said coldly.
"Who do you say is stupid?" Luo Xingchen's face obviously became very ugly.
He used to be in the sect, and none of those elders praised him for his talent, and no one dared to give him a look. But when he got here, Lu Nan actually called him stupid twice in a row, which made him feel that Lu Nan intended to target him.
Seeing that Luo Xingchen was about to have another seizure, Yi Nian and Okra hurriedly said everything on the side, but Ye Xuan watched coldly and didn't care about these at all.
In the moments of their argument, Lu Nan had already turned over the nearby blades of grass and found a wet piece of soil.
If you look in the direction of the dirt, you will soon see a row of wet footprints, but this footprint is small, and the five toes are not clearly separated, not like human footprints.
Under Lu Nan's reminder, the others also found strange footprints on the ground, and Luo Xingchen snorted and didn't say anything more.
Okra asked, "What are these footprints?" ”
"It's not clear yet, you'll have to see it to know." Lu Nan said in a low voice, "Follow the footprints, don't make a sound." ”
After walking for about five hundred meters, the traces of the footprints were gone, but a few people had already seen a village hidden in the fog from a distance.
Yi Nian wondered, "Why didn't we find a village here when we checked the map?" ”
"Your map should be a real-time map, and there is a formation outside this village as a cover, so you naturally can't see it." Lu Nan said.
"You know the formation?" Ye Xuan raised her eyebrows slightly and asked.
Lu Nan nodded and said, "I understand a little." ”
Luo Xingchen said coldly: "Since we know that the monster has entered the village, let's hurry up, so as not to let the monster hurt the lives of innocent people when it is too late." ”
With that, he drew the long sword on his back and walked quickly towards the village.
"Wait!"
Lu Nan immediately spoke out to stop him, but Luo Xingchen didn't hear it.
Not only that, Ye Xuan glanced at Lu Nan, and also followed Luo Xingchen towards the village.
Okra looked at Lu Nan nervously and asked, "What should we do now?" ”
Lu Nan couldn't care about the life or death of these two people, gritted his teeth and said, "Keep up!" ”
When they were far away, they saw that the village was only covered with a layer of mist, but now when they came in, they found that the fog was much thicker than before.
Luo Xingchen used a Xunfeng talisman to dispel the fog, but after the strong wind, the fog did not produce any other changes except for rolling more intensely.
Lu Nan had expected this result a long time ago, because this fog was not a real fog in the first place, but a trick created by the maze outside the village.
Luo Xingchen saw that the Xunfeng talisman was ineffective, so he ignited two ignition talismans to illuminate them. After Lu Nan noticed it, he knocked down the ignition talisman.
"Rough, you're not in the right head, are you? Isn't it clear that there are people in the fog when you light a fire here! ”
This time, Luo Xingchen finally couldn't help it, he slapped Lu Nan's hand away vigorously, and said angrily: "Lao Tzu can do whatever he wants, can you manage it?" Master, I don't go with cowards, everyone! ”
After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked in the other direction, and Ye Xuan immediately followed when he saw this.
Yi Nian called Luo Xingchen a few times, but the latter did not agree, so he had no choice but to follow.
He is the captain after all, and he is responsible for other people, and strictly speaking, the four of them are on the same front, and Lu Nan is just a temporary worker.
Okra glanced at Lu Nan, said sorry and followed.
This time Lu Nan didn't follow, he came to help carry out the task and earn some extra money by the way, but he didn't come to help Cang Lingzi take care of the child.
Just now, Luo Xingchen acted privately and brought everyone into the fog, and he had already made a fatal mistake.
Lu Nan could tolerate him once, but he would never intend to condone it a second time, and it was their own choice to go or stay.
The light of the ignition talisman quickly disappeared into the vast fog, and Lu Nan sighed and walked in the other direction alone.
This mist array was not as good as Lu Nan's ecstasy array, and Lu Nan walked out very easily.
What appeared in front of me was a quiet village, the houses were made of yellow mud with straw, and the wooden doors and window lattices exuded a faint smell of decay.
Lu Nan didn't expect that there was such an old village on the edge of Shangcheng, and even in Lu Nan's hometown, it was rare to see such a mud house.
The houses are neatly arranged, separated by a series of horizontal and vertical loess roads, the road surface is smooth and overgrown with weeds, and it is clear that no one has walked through it for a long time.
Lu Nan raised his head to look at the sky and found that the bright moon hanging high seemed to be slightly larger than what he saw on weekdays.
On second thought, the moon is occasionally bigger or smaller, which makes scientific sense.
Walking along the village road to the door of the first house, Lu Nan saw that the closed gate had turned black and decayed, and it was obvious that no one had lived in it for a long time. Reaching out and gently touching the door, a layer of rotten wood chips immediately fell off.
In front of the house, a wet aquatic plant hangs from the door frame, shining in the moonlight. The aquatic plants emitted a faint fishy smell, apparently freshly fished out of the river.
Lu Nan followed the road to the door of the second house, and found that it was still the case, until the last house on this road, they were all tied with that unknown aquatic weed.
Just as Lu Nan was about to continue to look inside the village, a scream suddenly came from a certain direction. He immediately put down the aquatic plants in his hand and immediately rushed in the direction where the screams came from.
After passing through the narrow gap between the two houses, Lu Nan came to the place where the sound came from, but it was empty all around, and no one seemed to have come at all.
Lu Nan looked closely, only to find two long traces extending from Lu Nan's feet into the distance, pointing to a huge loess mound behind the village.
