2048: C2048 Fog

C2048 Fog

A man wearing white clothes was dragged over from the thick fog by Chu Yang with a military knife.

It was indeed the best way to hide in the white fog with his white clothes on. However, this person really shouldn't have made such an escape reaction after sensing that he had been discovered.

In fact, with White-robed Man's abilities, the cover of the thick fog, and Chu Yang's scruples about not being able to see anything, the best way for him to detect it was to attack first.

Attacking was the best defense. This was the truth.

If he was to directly attack while exposing his body, then Chu Yang, who did not know his true strength, would definitely make the best defensive moves.

As long as Chu Yang made a move to defend, the White-robed Man would be able to take the opportunity to escape into the dense fog.

He should never retreat after sensing that he was being discovered, because this only exposed his fear of Chu Yang's weakness.

What kind of person is Chu Yang?

In terms of timing and ability to react correctly in an instant, he would definitely be able to enter the top ten in the current world. In the instant that Bai Ying retreated in a flurry, he realized that the other party was afraid of him.

Chu Yang's attack this time was like a chameleon catching a grasshopper, his long tongue extended out like lightning and instantly stuck the grasshopper into his mouth.

But what made Chu Yang surprised was that when his military knife stabbed into White Shadow's chest and dragged him over, the target did not scream.

Is he not a person?

Chu Yang thought like this as he looked down and saw a face.

The white fog was thicker, but people could still see what they wanted to see when they got a certain distance away, just like how Chu Yang could see the face.

Just by looking at this face, Chu Yang already felt a chill in his heart.

It was a blank face.

The so-called blank face was like the blank face of a mahjong, with only two holes.

Those two holes were the nose used to breathe air.

If anyone else saw this face, they would definitely be scared out of their wits.

Fortunately, Chu Yang was scared to death, so he only felt a chill in his heart before realizing something. His left hand swiped across the face of the white board, and when he lifted it again, a soft mask appeared in his hand. It was unknown what material it was made of.

Beneath the mask was a man's face, pale as a fog.

Pretending to be ghosts.

Chu Yang casually threw away his mask, grabbed the guy's chin and shouted in a low voice: "Speak, who are you!"

"Ugh …"

After the man had been stabbed by the military knife, he did not let out a scream because there was a mask on his face. Now that the mask had been removed, he could finally open his mouth.

In his wide open mouth, there was only one simple syllable.

"His tongue was cut off and his eyes were gouged out."

After Chu Yang launched his attack, Gao Fei immediately stopped moving forward and didn't chase after the silver spear that was retreating into the fog.

He was also very clear that Chu Yang was not familiar with the environment in the backyard. If he went out to chase them, he would fall into someone's trap. Chu Yang, who didn't know the terrain, would die miserably in this kind of situation.

Only after being reminded by Gao Fei did Chu Yang realize that there was really no tongue in this person's mouth. His widened eyes were also completely empty and very frightening.

He hid in the fog and ambushed Chu Yang and Chu Yang. Surprisingly, he only relied on his hearing or his sense of smell.

Like the bats in the night, their eyes were merely decorations.

The fog was this person's night.

Eyes are almost useless in the fog.

A normal person would be blind in this sort of environment.

However, it did not affect the man at all because he had no eyes to begin with. Instead, the fog became his greatest advantage. He waited for an opportunity to attack after he heard or smelled the exact positions of Chu Yang and the other man.

What impressed Gao Fei and the other two more was that not only could this person turn into a bat to hunt for food in the dark, but he also had no eyes. Based on Chu Yang's alertness, he could quickly determine that he had been discovered, thus giving up his attack and retreating quickly.

His retreat speed was not slow, but it was a pity that Chu Yang's attack speed was even faster.

It had only hit.

When Gao Fei saw that this person had neither a tongue nor eyes, his body straightened up and a ghost slowly floated into the thick fog.

No one could survive for more than ten seconds after the center of the trident.

With the removal of Chu Yang Jun's thorns, the bloody smell in the fog became even stronger. The strange atmosphere also suddenly increased. From which direction of the fog, there was a faint rustling sound.

It was just like when you passed an abandoned grave in the dark of the night. With a ghost following behind you, no matter how fast you turned around, you wouldn't be able to see it.

The hidden danger was the real danger.

However, this was not the danger that made Gao Fei's heart palpitate the most.

The dead man had told them about the more terrible dangers: his eyes had been gouged out, his tongue cut off, but he could move freely in the dark (the fog) and attack his target with his sense of hearing or sense of smell, which was proof that he was well-trained.

In other words, a long time ago, someone was trying to think of a way to break the Eight Trigrams Array, which was why they specially groomed a group of assassins who could do things without using their eyes.

It could also prove that Lao Du, who was in White Cloud Monastery, had long ago been taken into consideration by someone.

Gao Fei and Chu Yang both thought of this. When they looked at each other, they could see the fear in each other's eyes.

But then it disappeared.

If the two of them were to join forces and still be afraid, then it would be better for them to just turn around and flee, and never mention the word 'man' ever again.

Today, there was no retreat.

The instant the two of them looked at each other, they understood each other's intentions.

When Chu Yang stood up, Gao Fei had already turned around and walked forward.

The two of them returned to their original back-to-back posture when they first entered the courtyard, and started to grope their way forward through the thick fog.

The dense fog can not only obstruct people's line of sight, but also effectively reduce the sound transmission.

They were clearly in a courtyard that wasn't very big, but they felt abandoned by the entire world. They couldn't see the sky, they couldn't see the earth, they couldn't see the light, they couldn't see the wind, and there was only white fog.

However, they could all hear hurried rustling sounds. The rustling sounds came from left and right, from far away and close. When the rustling sounds appeared, they all disappeared without waiting for them to react.

The man with the silver spear hadn't appeared for the next ten minutes after he was killed.

In the end, they could no longer hear the soft rustling sounds. It was as if the two of them had walked into a vacuum, and even breathing had become difficult.

However, there was a faint smell of blood in the fog.

It had been more than ten minutes. No matter how slow they walked, it was time for them to walk from the Moon Gate to Taoist Du's abode.

Furthermore, Gao Fei was also sure that he did not take the wrong path. After all, the last time he was trapped in the array, he had walked with his eyes closed for the greater part of the night.

But why was it that he could not see what he wanted to see? The road in the fog seemed endless?

When the fog seemed to have cooled down, Gao Fei stopped.

Chu Yang's mouth immediately came close to his ear and asked in a low voice: "Back view, is it a cliff?"

"Very deep."

Gao Fei replied in the same low voice, "But it's weird, I don't feel any wind this time."

As long as there was wind, Gao Fei was confident enough to follow the direction of the wind and determine the direction.

Chu Yang said, "With wind, it's useless."

Gao Fei immediately understood: The creator of the Eight Trigrams Array must have thought long ago that there would be a wind blowing from below the valley, so he specially aimed at the wind direction to make it change direction.

Last time, Gao Fei was able to escape Eight Trigrams Array according to the direction of the wind, but Lao Du didn't activate the killing array.

Once the killing array was activated, the direction of the wind would change or disappear.

"However, there is one thing that cannot be changed, and that is the temperature of the fog."

"I can feel the temperature of the fog drop," Gao Fei said in a lower voice.

Chu Yang immediately continued, "This proves that we should be in front of the cliff."

After the Eight Trigrams Array was activated, other than the pond and Lao Du's abode being very difficult to move, any fake mountains, flowers, trees, and walls could all be shifted at will.

This way, the wall blocking the cliff could disappear.

Gao Fei and Chu Yang, the two blind men, were likely to fall off a cliff in the back of a mountain with one stomp in the air and die a horrible death.

"We can't leave."

Gao Fei said.

"Then sit down on the floor."

As Chu Yang said this, he took the lead and sat down cross-legged.

"Behind us is a cliff. At most, it's less than a meter. I can clearly feel the air flowing around us."

Before sitting down, Gao Fei raised his hand and stretched it forward, then turned around and sat down beside Chu Yang. The Killing Spur in his right hand was placed in his left.

After the two of them sat down, they both closed their eyes.

Since he couldn't see anything with his eyes wide open, he might as well 'save resources' so that his ears and sense of smell became more sensitive.

Rustling sounds of rustling came from the front, left, and right of them.

It was quiet behind him.

This further proved that Gao Fei and his partner's judgement was correct: behind them was a cliff. No matter how strange those people were, they couldn't attack them from the other side of the cliff.

That was why Gao Fei and Chu Yang sat side by side.1

Although he didn't want to waste time with a grown man, he had to do it sometimes.

Gao Fei grabbed Chu Yang's left hand with his right hand and wrote a word on his palm: Dog.

Chu Yang immediately replied: "Yes."

It made a rustling sound. It was the sound made by the dog.

Gao Fei and the other two didn't know how many dogs would hide in the fog, but they were basically sure that these dogs were like the people who ambushed them. Their eyes and tongues were dug out, so they didn't make any noise.

In such a dense fog, even if Lao Du ran into the formation and could walk out with his eyes closed, he would never be able to track their trail.

Therefore, only something like a dog could rely on its sense of smell to track the two of them.

How can we walk out? We can't just sit here and wait, can we?

Chu Yang wrote on Gao Fei's palm.

Gao Fei wrote back: We can wait. They can't wait. Time is on our side.

They will attack soon, Chu Yang wrote, but we must let the enemy clear the fog.

Gao Fei wrote: If it causes the illusion that the dog will bite us and throw us into the cliff, the fog will dissipate.

Chu Yang asked: "What can you do?"

Gao Fei replied: There's no other way. Can't you be a human target?

Why can't it be you?

I'm younger than you are, not alive enough.

That was no reason.

Scissor, bundle, hammer.

… ….

Fine, you win, f * ck.

My luck is better than yours. I admit defeat and unbuckle my belt.

Just as Gao Fei fastened his belt proudly, a black shadow suddenly pounced out from the thick fog, bringing with it a distinct stench.
