Trapped Beast Chapter 55 Feng Guoling
Ying Cang, the people of the two factions of Lianshan rested for a while, and set off for Fengguoling on the second day.
The area of Fengguoling is very large, and it is rich in resources. The forest farm is located in the depths of Fengguoling, mainly producing a variety of traditional Chinese medicine, natural materials and treasures, and a small amount of rare minerals. It was in this forest farm that the hired mountain people excavated these three resources and exchanged them for some money with the four factions. In recent days, they have been attacked by fierce beasts, and these mountain people have retreated to the outside of the forest farm, and they have gone farther and farther, and they are almost at the border of Fengguoling.
When the group came to Fengguoling, they saw that many mountain people were working in this area. Zhou Yang casually stopped a man and asked, "Do you know the situation in the forest farm?"
When the man saw Zhou Yang, he immediately nodded and said respectfully: "Back to Zhou Gongzi, in recent days, due to the increasing frequency of attacks by fierce beasts, we have withdrawn from the forest farm. A few days ago, there was a heavy fog in Fengguoling, and everyone couldn't do their work, so they retreated to the periphery. I can only barely dig up some common herbs here. ”
"Senior Brother Bai, what do you think?" Zhou Yang turned his head and asked. The Senior Brother Bai in his mouth was Bai Le, the leader of the Lianshan faction this time.
Bai Le was puzzled in his heart, and only felt that Zhou Yang was asking too much, but he still said: "No matter what, we always have to go in and find out, we don't seem to have much choice." ”
"That's right..."Zhou Yang muttered. After that, he led the team to the depths of Fengguo Ridge.
Since entering the boundary of Fengguoling, you can gradually see the mist.
"Brother Pei, have you found anything unusual?" Su Yi asked when he saw the size of the mist.
Pei Yi looked around decently, shook his head and said, "No... Brother Su, what did you find?"
"I can't tell...," Su Yi also shook his head and said, "That fog gives people a strange feeling, as if... It's not just the fog. Su Yi learned of Yu Chongshan's conspiracy in advance, and only then did he realize that something was wrong.
"I can't see it, but Brother Su, your eyesight is better than mine, and if you say that there is a problem, it must not be so simple. Pei Yi took a closer look again, his eyes were almost narrowed, and there was still no gain, so he had to ask, "Brother Su, where did you say it is not simple?"
"When I was a child, I practiced with a monk for a while, and when I traveled around, I saw this kind of mist, and I knew how to distinguish one from the other. Su Yi explained, "This fog is too thick, and it is somewhat mixed with different colors, and it smells a little strange when you smell it carefully." ”
Pei Yi sniffed vigorously and said, "It seems that there is really a little taste, and a little... I went to Zhou Yang and said, "Pei Yi has a lot of admiration for Su Yi, so he never doubts what Su Yi said, so he immediately went to Zhou Yang."
"What? Isn't that scared? After Zhou Yang listened to Pei Yi's words, Yin Yang said strangely. He has always been at odds with Pei Yi, so it has become a habit to disagree with Pei Yi. Moreover, he now considers himself to be the leader of this team, so naturally he can't tolerate the authority being challenged, how can others find out what he hasn't discovered.
"No, junior brother, listen to me. It was Su Yi who felt something abnormal, and I only noticed it after he said this. I'm sure he won't talk nonsense. Pei Yi hurriedly explained.
"It's just nonsense, you say this will disturb people's hearts and make everyone nervous for some reason. Don't listen to him, let's keep walking. The more Pei Yi explained, the more Zhou Yang didn't believe it. He was jealous of Su Yi, and he didn't want him to be in the limelight.
Zhou Yang was about to go any further, but he heard Bai Le say: "Senior Brother Zhou, why don't you listen to Senior Brother Su first? ”
Although Zhou Yang was very reluctant, he still said: "Since Senior Brother Bai also said so, then you can say it and listen to it." ”
Seeing Zhou Yang compromise, Bai Le also asked, "Senior Brother Su, what do you say is wrong with that fog?"
"I also discussed it with Brother Pei just now, and found that the fog is not so simple. I guess... That's most likely a miasma. Su Yi said.
"Miasma, what miasma?" Zhou Yang blurted out.
Su Yi was speechless to Zhou Yang, he didn't know what this person had in his head, and he wanted to take everyone to death, so he replied: "Miasma, that is a kind of poisonous gas that can make people mentally retarded, maybe senior brother, you have already inhaled two sips, and the poisonous gas has attacked the brain." ”
When everyone heard this, they covered their mouths and tried their best not to laugh. Only Pei Yi asked with a serious face: "What, Senior Brother Su, are you telling the truth? There is still such an effect of poisonous gas in the world." ”
Zhou Yang was even more embarrassed, and the roots of his ears instantly turned red. It's also a shame that he still knows how to endure, as if nothing has happened, and he reluctantly smiled: "Senior brother said that he was joking, how could there be such a strange poisonous gas, you should tell everyone what the miasma was." ”
Seeing that he was willing to bow his head, Su Yi stopped sneering at him, and continued: "My nose is more sensitive, and I can smell the smell of rotten flesh in that mist, but it is extremely weak. The deeper you go, the stronger the smell gets. If I'm not mistaken, we should see a lot of animal remains along the way. And in the depths, where your woods are located, there are the most. As for why... I guess there are a huge number of beasts fighting each other, and almost all the animals are affected under the nest. This is the only way to emit rot in just a few days. ”
Everyone was shocked and did not speak for a long time. Maybe some people don't believe it, maybe some people start to panic, and they have different ideas. Su Yi saw that no one spoke, everyone had a solemn expression, and they were not in a hurry, so they waited quietly.
After a long time, I heard the moss say: "Master Su, the moss has seen a description of miasma in books, saying that it is 'colored and tasteful, miscellaneous but not pure', but it is very different from the fog in front of me. It stands to reason that if the miasma comes from a distance, it should be difficult to see and can be faintly smelled. So if it's just the miasma you're talking about, there wouldn't be such a scene. And at this time, it is not the season of fog, so this fog is also a little weird. How can this be explained?"
"Moss Girl is so smart. Su Yi couldn't help but praise. Moss blushed slightly and smiled shyly as a token of gratitude. Su Yi continued: "This is exactly another point I want to say, and this one may be even more terrifying..."
When the crowd heard this, there was silence again. Zhou Ying barely squeezed out a smile, and said in a trembling voice: "Senior Brother Su, don't scare everyone, let's tell me what's going on." ”
"I didn't scare you. Su Yi said with a serious face, "You may not know that the sudden appearance of the fog is one of the signs of the appearance of spirits. Moss girl, you also mentioned that it won't be foggy now. Then nine times out of ten, there are spirits infested, and the Tao is not shallow, and the essence of the body cannot be controlled, which will cause this vision. ”
He and Bihe traveled all over the barren mountains and forests, although he didn't see much such a scene, but once or twice, it was enough for him to remember it. Moreover, under Bihe's explanation, he also learned a lot about this aspect.
Zhou Yang laughed out loud to hide the fear in his heart, and said, "Senior brother, don't tease me, spirit? ”
Su Yi said casually: "If you haven't seen it, it doesn't mean that you haven't." ”
Moss also couldn't believe it, and hesitated: "Although it is not normal, it is not unheard of in this season to have a foggy day." ”
At this time, Bai Le seemed to believe Su Yi's words a little, and asked, "Then Senior Brother Su, in your opinion, what should we do?"
Su Yi also had a headache and said, "If there are really spirits in it, then our group of rookies will go in and send them rations." Even if there are no spirits, the number of beasts is not something we can eat. So... I suggest that it is better to save your life and go home. ”
Zhou Yang heard this and said hurriedly: "How is that possible! We have a task on our bodies, how can we deal with the errand if we don't complete it? Besides, if we are scared back home by a few fierce beasts, will they still entrust us with a heavy responsibility?"
Bai Le thought for a while, and also said: "Senior Brother Zhou is also reasonable, otherwise we will take one step at a time and be more careful along the way." It's a big deal, if there's something out of the ordinary, just turn back and turn back. ”
The crowd has no opinions, they are afraid of the miasma, and they don't want to be laughed at when they go home empty-handed. Seeing that the two leaders had decided to move on, they had no opinions, and nodded in agreement.
Su Yijian finally discussed such a solution that was not a solution, and he was helpless. Once the fog has gone in, it will be difficult to get out again. He is not afraid of any miasma, beasts and spirits, but others may not. For the people of the Yingcang faction and the Lianshan faction, he has no feelings, and he will not have mercy, but he doesn't want to watch Pei Yi and Moss step into danger and follow Zhou Yang, the idiot, to die in vain.
However, everyone naturally decided, but it was not good to obstruct it any more.
