"...I have only heard other people mention the dangers in the fog." Goviya thought and then said: "In the gray fog area, we need to pay attention to the three threats most, the lost, fog ghosts and fog mirages.

"

"The lost are those who have explored the foggy areas before but failed to come out.

When you meet a lost person, you must keep two things in mind: you must not talk to them, do not come into contact with them, and treat them as air, otherwise once you are targeted by a lost person, it will haunt you until you die."

She introduced slowly.

"Fog ghosts are monsters born from the fog itself. They are more terrifying than the lost.

It can be said that more than 80% of the lost people are caused by them.

Fog ghosts can control the fog and are unable to compete. They are the most terrifying existence in the fog. If we encounter fog ghosts, we will definitely die. But the good news is that the number of fog ghosts is very rare, and the signs of their occurrence are obvious.

As long as you are alert at all times, you will be able to avoid it with a high degree of certainty.”

"oh……"

Cheng Shen wrote down the characteristics of these two monsters, but saw that Govia had no intention of continuing.

I couldn't help but ask: "What about the third threat?"

Goviya shook his head and said: "I have never heard of any records about mirages in the fog city, which means that the people who have been in contact with them are either dead or disappear forever. You'd better pray that we don't encounter them."

There was a pause.

She looked at Cheng Shen and continued: "Of course there are more than just these three threats in the fog. This is a hell that eats people but doesn't spit out bones. I'm ready to die. Don't hold me back at the critical moment."

Cheng Shen ignored her question. He bent down and grabbed a handful of dirt from the ground and stuffed it into his arms.

"Let's go."

After saying that, Cheng Shen walked towards the boundary between the town and the fog.

Govia repeated his move.

Then follow immediately.

call……

The gray mist seemed to be mixed with countless floating particles. When it brushed against the skin, it caused a slight friction feeling. Cheng Shen suddenly felt that there was some debris in his mouth and nose. It did not affect his breathing, but it was extremely uncomfortable.

He frowned and looked behind him. He was only one meter away from the town, and the mist had already swallowed up the road ahead.

The town disappeared.

The ball of soil in his arms began to exude an icy aura, and it was bone-chilling, constantly reminding him of the distance between him and the nightmare town.

call……

There was a squirming movement in the mist, and Govia's figure squeezed out of thin air in front of him. She held a sharp knife in her slender fingers, and her long black hair was spread behind her head. She looked like an innocent ghost seeking her life when paired with a plain dress.

She wrinkled her nose, obviously not used to the foggy environment, but neither of them cared about this effect.

Maybe staying in this environment for a long time will cause irreversible damage to the respiratory system and be extremely harmful, but Cheng Shen and Govia had planned to explore for only a few hours from the beginning, so there was no need to worry.

"The human face flower grows at least a thousand meters away from the town, which is close to the white fog area. This is my most solemn warning. No matter what, do not come into contact with the white fog or try to enter the white fog area!"

"good."

Cheng Shen happily agreed.

Although he dares to take risks, he must also be self-aware. He cannot even deal with the dangers in the gray fog area, let alone the white fog area which is more terrifying than the gray fog.

And he must not let Govia worry at this time.

Entering the fog, the relationship between the two people changes from competitors in a life-and-death game to partners who must trust each other.

The two began to move forward.

Since Govia said that the Human Face Flower is at least a thousand meters away, there is no need to waste time near the town. Moreover, this relatively safe area has been raided countless times by others and has no value for exploration.

As the distance from the town gradually grew further, the cold aura emanating from the lump of soil in Cheng Shen's arms began to weaken.

A few hundred meters later.

This chill has become quite weak.

There was only a ray of cold touch left, reminding him not to forget the direction home.

"etc."

Govia suddenly stopped him and walked aside. Cheng Shen followed her purpose and looked. It was a clump of emerald green grass with a purple hint at the top. Cheng Shen, who was familiar with the ecology of the dark forest, recognized it at a glance.

.

"Silver Snake Grass, poisonous."

he reminded.

Govia turned around and looked at him as if he were a fool. He stretched out his hand and uprooted a piece of silver snake plant. Then he eagerly stuffed the plant into his mouth along with the soil and chewed it greedily.

She divided half of it and handed it to Cheng Shen.

"Starve to death or poison to death, it's your choice."

"..."

Cheng Shen was speechless.

He admitted that Govea was right. In this small town with almost no food resources, anything edible was very precious. In this case, even eating something highly poisonous would be more comfortable than starving to death.

.

hunger.

Perhaps not the most painful way to die.

But it is definitely the most torturous, torturous, and unbearable choice.

Cheng Shen had spent a whole day in a nightmare, and he still hadn't had a drop of water. After Goviya's reminder, all the senses that he had neglected were suddenly awakened, and a strong sourness emerged in his stomach.

He did not accept the Silver Snake Grass handed over by Govia. He stepped forward without saying a word, took out a sharp knife and began to dig towards the roots of the Silver Snake Grass.

"laugh."

Seeing his actions, Govia couldn't help but smile mockingly.

"The rhizomes of Silver Snake Grass are even more inedible. How do you think you have more survival experience than me?"

She said bluntly.

Cheng Shen glanced back at her expressionlessly and said, "Survival experience is not accumulated by living long, but also by using your brain to learn."

Wow!

He swung the Nightmare Blade to cut open all the entangled roots of the Silver Snake Grass.

The growth structure of the poisonous herb Silver Snake Grass is very confusing. On the surface, its most valuable part is the leaves. Even if someone wants to continue digging, they will almost give up when they see the rhizome.

However in reality.

The real value lies deeper.

Cheng Shen would have personally tasted this toxic herb and mastered its efficacy and growth habits if not through pharmacology.

There is no way to understand the hidden characteristics of this special plant.

Digging down very deep, at this time, the rhizome of Silver Snake Grass is almost invisible in the moist soil. There are only one or two inconspicuous slender veins that extend downward, which are easy to be ignored.

Cheng Shen retracted the sharp knife and started digging with both hands.

soon.

Then he touched a cold object.

He brushed off the soil on it with his hands, and silvery lines like snake scales were revealed. Cheng Shen took out the root that was buried nearly half a meter deep in the ground. Its winding curves resembled a silver snake.

This is the origin of the name Silver Snake Grass.

Many people think it is called a venomous snake because of its venomous nature.

In fact, it is far from the truth.

"you……"

Goviya, who was waiting to see the joke, had a look of disbelief on her face. When she came to her senses, she looked at Cheng Shen carefully and vigilantly, as if she had doubted his identity, otherwise how could he know this place better than she did!

Gaba.

Cheng Shen broke off the foot-long silver rhizome in his hand, and milky white juice immediately flowed from the break.

He put a piece of it into his mouth and sucked on it. The bitter taste immediately filled his mouth, making his expression slightly distorted.

But after the bitter taste, a sweet taste emerged, and the juice flowing down his throat and into his stomach made him feel warm inside.

"Don't eat its roots. The juice is completely non-toxic and can nourish the body."

Cheng Shen reminded Goviya.

The latter's face was a little uneasy, but after living in the nightmare for so long, Goviya realized the most obvious thing, that is, shame, dignity and integrity are of no value here.

She immediately took another piece of silver snake root and sucked it hard.

Cheng Shen put away the rhizome in his hand that had no juice flowing out. It was a truly poisonous thing and could be used to refine the poison he needed when he returned.

"call……"

After drinking the juice, Govia noticed the nourishing effect more clearly than Cheng Shen. Her eyes couldn't help but shine. As she continued walking on the road, it didn't take long for her to find another silver snake plant, and she immediately rushed to dig it up.

"We made a lot of money this time! Silver Snake Grass is the food we are least willing to use to satisfy our hunger. Its toxicity will make people miserable, and no one will want to eat it. There must be many others in this area.

few!"

Govia was as happy as a child who got candy.

Cheng Shen didn't care at first. Anyway, the Silver Snake Grass she worked hard to dig out was half of his.

But after seeing her gradually going off track, I couldn't help but give a reminder.

"This is not our purpose, don't waste time."

"I know, I know~"

Govia waved her hands indifferently, it seemed that she didn't take Cheng Shen's words to heart at all.

But it's understandable.

A big reason why she agreed to cooperate with Cheng Shen was because of lack of food. After all, she already knew who the hidden ghost was. As long as she survived until the last day, she would basically be able to enter the next reincarnation.

Put yourself in Govia's perspective.

In fact, she had no reason to cooperate with Cheng Shen to explore the fog.

At this time, before she encountered danger, she had already found a solution to the dilemma she faced.

Most of the courage she finally raised up was undoubtedly gone.

Fortunately, she at least knew how to be sensible. After digging for seven or eight silver snake plants in a row, she finally stopped. Then she smiled at Cheng Shen and said, "Don't worry, I will help you pick the human face flowers and I won't abandon you."

here."

How could Cheng Shen not know what she was thinking.

But she is also quite magnanimous.

He immediately said: "If you told me from the beginning that you knew this place very well, there would be no friction between us... As long as you can continue to provide me with valuable information, our cooperation will never break down!"

"I hope so."

Cheng Shen said expressionlessly.

The last thing he wanted to know through Govia was to know who the hidden ghost was. However, this was the most important bargaining chip in Govia's hand, and of course she would not tell it easily.

"Shh..."

Goviya's expression suddenly changed. He raised his fingers in front of his mouth and listened carefully.

Cheng Shen also felt a clear warning from his intuition at this time.

The two of them closed their mouths in tacit agreement, held their breath and stared at the fog outside their field of vision.

See it soon.

One after another, figures lined up and slowly walked out of the mist.

They were wearing rotten and old clothes, and each one put his hand on the shoulder of the other one, as if playing a childish game of eagle and chicken. They all lowered their heads and made no sound when they moved.

"The lost... the lost..."

Govia was mouthing nervously, but her nervousness did not come from herself. As a nightmare resident who had participated in seven devil games, this was not the first time she had seen this kind of monster in the fog.

She was only afraid that something would happen to Cheng Shen at this time.

Then it hurt her.

Looking back, Cheng Shen's performance was much calmer than she expected. There was no panic on his face. In order to avoid any accidents, he deliberately looked away and looked in another direction...

etc!

Govia suddenly turned his head and looked at where Cheng Shen was looking.

Before she could react, a big hand suddenly grabbed her arm and pulled her backwards with huge force!

"Don't struggle!"

Cheng Shen's whisper sounded.

Govia abruptly stopped his desire to fight back, and then he felt his body light up, and his whole body was completely carried on Cheng Shen's shoulders!

Such an offensive move did not make her angry.

Govia could not help but recall the figure that appeared at a sudden glance.

A word that made her lips tremble subconsciously came out slowly.

"Fog ghost!"

Why are you so unlucky!

"Hold on to me!"

Cheng Shen buried his head and gave a brief reminder.

With his physical fitness, carrying Govia was like playing. Her long-term malnourished body was not as heavy as a sandbag.

Of course, if it weren't for the fact that she had the important information he wanted to know, Cheng Shen would probably have chosen to run away, and would never risk his life to care about this passerby who he could only meet by chance.

"Woo~!

"

A strange whimpering sound came from behind.

Although Cheng Shen reacted as quickly as possible and ran away, he still couldn't get rid of the fog ghost that suddenly appeared. The surrounding fog suddenly surged, and a thick white appeared in the gray world.

"Why did the fog ghost suddenly appear!"

Goviya hugged Cheng Shen's neck tightly and spoke with a tone full of collapse.

Cheng Shen didn't have time to pay attention to her, so he took out his hands. He quickly took out a paper bag from his arms and opened it several times. A strong aroma suddenly wafted out. Cheng Shen threw the ball of ointment towards the end with a strong force. far away!

"ah!

!”

Goviya behind him suddenly let out a horrifying scream, and Cheng Shen also felt chilled all over.

The sense of crisis of death instantly enveloped my whole body.

He hurriedly turned around and saw that a white bone arm extending out of the mist had touched Goviya behind him, but the moment he threw the ointment, the white bone arm changed its trajectory.

Ta-ta...

There was also the sound of dense footsteps in the mist.

Cheng Shen didn't dare to stop and didn't care about anything else. He held Goviya's legs and continued running for a long time before stopping.

"Huchi...huchi..."

He squatted behind a raised bone-white boulder and listened to what was going on around him.

I was relieved when I found that the group of lost people and fog ghosts hadn't caught up with me.
