Early in the morning, Lawrence went out to solve a personal problem, and as soon as he opened the door, he saw a white mist.

The world outside the door could no longer be seen clearly, and even the firewood in the yard in front of the door and the hut two meters away seemed to have disappeared.

Lawrence approached more than a meter in the fog and found himself completely shrouded in fog, unable to see clearly in front of him and left and right.

Turning to look into the room, fortunately there was still a place in the doorway.

Lawrence quickly returned to the house and removed his traveling stick from the wall next to the door.

The Traveling Stick is a dragon-like cane that can be used as a hook or as a hammer weapon, and is more often used to find its way and maintain balance.

Compared to the usual small sticks, the traveling sticks are thicker and can support Lawrence's weight at critical moments.

With a stick in hand, Lawrence cautiously went out to investigate the situation.

At this time, you must not run far, so I just went to the livestock pen to see how the animals are doing.

With memories and the discovery of sticks, Lawrence carefully touched the walls and fences and walked into the livestock pen.

"Baa~"

Several sheep felt the movement and made a hungry sound, and it was usually this time to start feeding.

Lawrence could not see the situation in the sheepfold clearly, so he first checked the condition of the dom sheep and the goats and sheep, and after making sure that they were still alive, he went to the pigsty.

You don't need to go into the pigsty, just use a stick to look inside, and soon the gray pig makes a snorting sound and dodges.

The other three little pigs were kept in the sheepfold, otherwise they would be bitten by the big pigs when they were with the big pigs, especially when they were eating together, and they were very easy to be killed by the big pigs.

The chickens in the hensty got along well, and Lawrence went back the way he came, making sure he was okay.

"Fortunately, this mist is not poisonous."

Lawrence breathed a sigh of relief.

He also remembered that there was a poison mountain nearby, and the animals and plants near it would be poisoned, so he would check on his animals first after the fog had risen.

If all the animals that have been out there inhaling the fog all night are still alive, then the fog is fine.

If you die, then you have to find a way to do it quickly.

When Lawrence returned to the house, he noticed the fire in the kitchen and went inside.

The kitchen is still dim, mainly because there is no sun's rays, and the only thing that can illuminate is the fire under the hanging pot.

Sariel was sitting by the fire and quickly turned her head to look at Lawrence.

"Lawrence, don't go to the mountains today, let's wait for the fog to clear and get something in town, Emma should have snake oil ointment ready there."

Lawrence was a lot more relaxed, "Okay. ”

After agreeing, Lawrence asked, "Is there often this kind of fog in the mountains?" ”

Sariel continued to cook the soup and said casually, "It often happens in winter, and sometimes it happens in summer. ”

Lawrence continued, "Is there really a witch on that nearby Mount Talim?" ”

Saliel frowned, "It's not a witch, it's a witch." ”

Lawrence was even more concerned, and walked over to Saril and sat down, "Is there really a witch?" ”

Sariel said unhappily, "Yes, Lawrence, aren't you a scholar?" Why don't you believe in witches yet? ”

Lawrence smiled and said, "I haven't seen a real witch, what kind of woman is that witch?" ”

"It was a lady in a black dress, and although my father warned me not to go near it, I didn't feel like the witch was a bad person. ”

Lawrence listened quietly to the story, "Why do you say that?" ”

"Because of that mountain, many dangerous animals don't come to us from there, and I've lived here for more than ten years, and I've always been very safe, and I believe that the witch is the guardian here," Sariel said. ”

Sariel looked at Lawrence, "Lawrence, do you believe she's the guardian here?" ”

Lawrence smiled and said, "Well, I believe it too." ”

At this time, Sophia's panicked shouts were heard outside.

"Master? Sariel! Where are you? ”

Lawrence heard Sophia's frightened voice and quickly shouted, "Here in the kitchen, don't run around, don't come out, I'm in the house." ”

"Good!" Sophia, who had just woken up and found that the room was empty, and that it was white outside the house, was quickly relieved.

Lawrence was about to look for Sophia when he saw Sophia run into the kitchen and quickly hugged his arm.

"Let's go to the town in the afternoon, I'll feed the animals first, and you and Sariel can cook." Lawrence stood up and got busy for the day.

Sophia let go of Lawrence and said reassuringly, "Okay! ”

Soon everyone started to get busy, and after feeding the livestock, they gathered together to eat.

Saliel fell in love with the soup, and the mutton soup tasted really good, and it was more appetizing than the roast.

When he had finished eating, it was empty, and instead of venturing into the fog, Lawrence sat in his room working on pieces of wood, intending to make himself a comb.

Use small rectangular pieces of wood as the material, carefully making gaps in them.

The first and second were quickly shattered, and Lawrence had no choice but to raise the gap between the spaces and barely make one that worked.

Sariel and Sophia sit on the side and play backgammon, a game that is easy to pick up and play with the two girls, and it's easy to pass the time.

As we approached the afternoon, the fog outside began to dissipate a little.

Sariel took one look and said, "It may take a few days to go down, and now that we can see something, let's go get some water, or the fog will rise again in the evening." ”

"Good!" Lawrence and Sophia certainly have no opinion.

The three of them soon went to fetch water together, fed the animals more food and drink, and cleaned up the dirty and smelly grass clippings together.

Animals always get water all over the place when they drink, and then step on it again, and no matter how many times they clean it, it always quickly becomes a dirty piece again.

The foggy evening came early and was exceptionally quiet.

Lawrence had a lot to do, taking a bunch of wood to make a toolbox after making a comb, and even making twenty flat pieces the size of bottle caps for Saril and Sophia out of leftovers.

Sariel and Sophia sat there and played chess quietly, cutting a few radishes to eat when they were bored, and looking at the chessboard intently, as if they would never get tired of playing.

Lawrence spent the afternoon preparing a toolbox for Andrew, and also made a few sticks with inlaid positions to facilitate the link binding when building the house in the future.

He was soon busy fixing the chimney's wooden frame again, and while he was busy, he saw Sariel stand up.

Saliel stretched out her strong, toned arms and twisted her waist to move her body.

She looked at the darkness of the night outside, and said happily:

"Time flies so fast, it's dark just after eating."
