Having nothing to say all night, they went to bed early, and got up before six o'clock the next day to look for their guide.

The innkeeper recommended to them a man named Li Yong, who was a maintenance worker in a farm machinery shop in the town, less than thirty years old, not a local, but had lived in Nanyou Town for almost six years, because he helped people repair tractors everywhere, and had been to most of the villages, some of which he could probably tell the direction and the road even if he had never been.

Xu Hai promised to give him 200 yuan a day, which was an astonishingly high salary in the local area, so he happily asked the owner of the agricultural machinery shop for leave, casually packed up some things and set off with them.

"Brother Li, have you ever seen these things?" As soon as he got in the car, Sun Yang habitually showed him all the information at hand, and they didn't think about going to the agricultural machinery store to ask someone yesterday.

"I've never seen the exact same, but I've seen something similar to this one." Li Yong carefully identified the contents of the photo and pointed to the photo of the wooden talisman and said.

"Where?" Lu Xiaoling and Xu Hai asked in unison.

"It's the reef creek you're going to~ Most of the tractors over there have wooden signs like this, saying that they are peace charms." Li Yong said. "I went to their side several times the year before last to repair the tractor, and they even gave me one."

"You still have it with you?" Sun Yang asked.

"I threw it away." Li Yong said. "This thing is not a good wood carving, it is not worth much!"

The driver was already sweating profusely on the side. Came out too early, the outside of Nanyou Town was full of white fog, and what was even worse was that the roads in the mountains were not only narrow, but also many of the bends were turned back, and the muddy and slippery road in the early morning could only maintain a speed of less than thirty kilometers per hour under such a sight condition, but even so, it still made him feel frightened.

"I'll double the rental fee for you when you go back." Xu Hai noticed his expression and immediately said this, his mood finally improved a little.

But even with more money, it is impossible to make nature compromise, and the further you go, the heavier the fog becomes, at first you can see forty or fifty meters away, but after walking for more than half an hour, you can only see thirty or forty meters.

"We'll have to find a place to stop and wait for the fog to clear." The driver finally spoke.

Everyone has no opinion, if they have an accident on the road, it also means that no one can look for Cao Daoping anymore.

"It's a bit strange about the fog today." Li Yong said on the side.

"Is this kind of fog rare?" Sun Yang asked.

"I don't see each other a few times a year...... And it shouldn't be at this time! ”

The car stopped at a slightly wider place, and they opened the door and walked down, on one side of the road were small terraced fields carved out along the hillside, and on the other side there was a sea of fog as far as the eye could see.

They are as thick as if they float in front of your eyes, but when you reach out, you can only touch the wet and cold air.

"Where are we now?" Sun Yang took out the map of Kuishan County and spread it on the hood, beckoning Li Yong to come and take a look. But Li Yong's culture is not high, you can let him lead the way, but he can't understand the map.

"Look, this is where we came out, Nanyou, this is where we're going, Jiaoxi, we should be on this road. Where do you think we should be right now? ”

"How do I know this~" Li Yong said with a blank face. "Your diagram is wrong, how can there be another line here?"

"That's a river."

Several people were discussing around the map, and Lu Xiaoling was not interested in it, so she took a deep breath, stood on the side of the road and shouted at the sea of fog: "Hey~~~~~~~~!" ”

Sun Yang glanced up at her, then returned his attention to the map.

"I'm going to put some water." Li Yong said.

He looked at Lu Xiaoling and took a few more steps to the opposite place in front of the car.

Sun Yang continued to look down and study the map, he had roughly figured out the current location, they were in the depression between the two upper and middle, from the map, it was less than ten kilometers away from Jiaoxi Village in a straight line, but Li Yong said that there were about seventeen or eighteen kilometers to the road.

Such a mountainous area is really ...... Sun Yang couldn't help but shake his head.

At this moment, he suddenly heard Li Yong's exclamation and the sound of a tree branch breaking.

He fell!

Sun Yang threw away the map and ran over there.

But Lu Xiaoling's movements were faster than him.

"Whew!" Her voice was not far from the side of the road, followed by a loud bang, accompanied by the low roar of the beast.

"Lu Xiaoling!" Without hesitation, Sun Yang ran down the steep slope on the side of the road and slid down.

"I'm here!" Lu Xiaoling kept responding, and the two soon converged.

It was about ten meters away from the side of the road, surrounded by miscellaneous trees, and a small crater was blown out by Lu Xiaoling's charm on the ground.

Li Yong sat on the ground, as if he was stunned.

"Are you alright?"

"It's fine!" Lu Xiaoling shook her head.

"What's that?" Sun Yang had already taken out the military dagger and held a talisman in his other hand.

"I didn't see clearly, only a few black blobs, but I felt like some kind of animal."

Sun Yang briefly checked the surroundings, and Lu Xiaoling's spell didn't seem to cause them any damage, but only scared them away.

"Let's go up first." He said to Lu Xiaoling.

"Python!" Li Yong suddenly screamed. "That's a beetle!"

"How do you know?" Lu Xiaoling asked.

"I saw it! Suddenly he rolled up from the ground, wrapped me up, and dragged me into the woods! What is not a python? Li Yong shouted in panic.

Sun Yang took a lot of effort to drag him to the road, he was not injured, but he was frightened.

"We have to go back! Please, go back! ”

"What do you mean by that?" Xu Hai said unhappily.

"I don't want your money anymore, let me go back! You don't know, these things are very vindictive, and they will come to revenge! ”

"It's not a monster at all!" Sun Yang also began to panic when he saw the driver's expression, and said calmly. "It's just two wild dogs, scared away by Xiaoling."

Li Yong wanted to say something, but Sun Yang said sternly: "Don't talk nonsense, you have to leave before you send us to the place, what is this?" If you want to go, you can go, we don't have time to see you off, you can walk back by yourself! ”

How dare Li Yong walk alone on the mountain in such a fog, he looked at them and could only give up his thoughts.

"It seems that the fog will not dissipate at once, big brother, why don't we slowly continue to walk inside? After this valley, you should be fine. Sun Yang said to the driver.

The driver was a little reluctant, but at their insistence, he started the car anyway.

"What the hell is it?" Xu Hai asked them in a low voice.

Lu Xiaoling and Sun Yang both shook their heads.

The mountain in front of them became steeper and steeper, and there was water in several places, and when the car passed, it was like driving in a muddy puddle, and it was easy to get stuck in it, so they had to get out of the car and help push the cart.

"Isn't there anyone building roads in this place?" Lu Xiaoling couldn't help but ask.

"Every year is the winter when the farming is slack, a few villages get some broken stones to pave it, how can anyone repair it!" Li Yong shook his head and said. He refused to get out of the car at first, and was dragged down by Lu Xiaoling, so he always stood in the middle position.

"It feels like there are no cars in or out for days." Xu Hai shook his head.

They were soon covered in mud, tired and cold, but fortunately after turning a pass, the fog suddenly dissipated.

A small mountain village appeared in front of them so suddenly.
