Chapter 16 The Fog of Terror
Although everyone didn't understand why the earthquake had been so long, there was no trace of the rescue team. Logically, such a serious earthquake occurred, I was afraid that the armed police and even the army might be able to send out rescue. But now, except for the dead people everywhere and collapsed buildings, no one of the rescue ghosts was seen.
After passing through a farmland, a weed appeared in front of everyone. The weeds grew very deep and should not be removed on weekdays, so they grew so lush.
Tang Sanli stopped, looked out for a while, and said, "The direction should be correct, go."
Everyone entered this weed field and walked all the way to the present, everyone gradually felt much more relaxed.
Because the surrounding area shows that there are a large amount of farmland, vegetable fields, barren mountains and wild areas, and no residential areas are seen, which means that there are no dead people and no monsters appear.
"It seems that we are lucky..." Except for Jin Xin, whose nose bridge was interrupted, tears rolled from time to time, everyone seemed much more relaxed, including Chu Nan.
"But this weed is really long." Yu Xiaotian frowned and said, "Look, there seems to be fog around."
"Well, I noticed it too. I didn't expect that it would even fog in broad daylight." Yin Yiping said.
Jin Xin opened his mouth and sucked his breath, saying in a bad mood: "This ghost weather is gloomy, and it's still foggy now. Is there anything more weird than this?"
Chu Nan said nothing, frowned slightly, put his shoulder on Tang Sanli, while walking silently while observing the surroundings.
At some point, this weed area was covered with a faint mist, but because it was too thin, everyone didn't pay attention at first, and they didn't realize it until now.
The mist rippled slightly, and the surroundings looked like they were shrouded in a veil, which looked very beautiful. Although everyone was sighing, they didn't say much.
Ten minutes later, everyone gradually became a little uneasy because the mist around them gradually became thicker.
"It's a little wrong. The fog in broad daylight is fine, but it's getting thicker and thicker. If this continues, we will easily get lost here." Tang Sanli helped Chu Nan and stopped the first time.
Seeing this, the others stopped and Yin Yiping said, "But we have been walking for so long. If we don't continue, we can't look back, right?"
"Want to turn around? I'll put my burden on it now, I'm afraid I won't be able to get out of the city before dark." Gan Yueyue also frowned.
Tang Sanli didn't say anything, Yu Xiaotian looked ahead and said, "Look, the fog in front is thicker, it seems that it can't be seen. If there are a few monsters hidden in the fog..."
Everyone shuddered and their faces changed color.
Cui Zhian said: "I think it's time to go back. If you keep going like this, you can get to the city as soon as possible, but the fog ahead is too thick, and no one knows what will happen. This is too dangerous. I would rather take a little more."
"Okay, I agree with Cui Zhian's opinion," Yin Yiping raised his hand and said, "If you keep going, you can't even see the road conditions clearly. It's really unsafe. Let's go back and find the way again."
Most of the others nodded in agreement, but Jin Xin, who had broken his nose, cursed: "Damn, there are so many mosquitoes in the weeds, and they were bitten again." As he said, he bent down and grabbed his ankle.
His ankles were covered in blood and flesh. He had been bitten by a corpse-turned monster before he met Chu Nan and others, but now he has scabbed.
He felt itchy here. He looked down and found that there were a lot of small red envelopes on the skin around him. He must have been bitten by mosquitoes, and he was scratched and scolded.
But I don’t want to get itchy the more I scratched itchy and I can’t stop.
"Jin Xin, what are you doing? Go quickly, go back." Cui Zhian turned around and shouted loudly: "If you don't leave, you will be lost."
"Wait a minute, I'm too itchy here, I can't stand it anymore." Jin Xin didn't look up, but just responded loudly, and now he's holding his ankles with both hands.
"What the hell is going on?" Cui Zhian walked over and looked down, but found that Jin Xin's ten fingers were bleeding, and his ankle was caught so bloody that it was covered in blood. The originally scabbed wound was scratched again.
"Hmm? What is this?" Jin Xin was suddenly stunned. He grabbed a sharp green thing from the scratched wound. Soon, a little head appeared from the red envelope he scratched his legs, and itched even more.
He couldn't help but try hard to catch it. Soon, dense things appeared in the wounds that were scratched everywhere. When Cui Zhian saw that they looked like sprouting green grass.
"What is this?" Cui Zhian was shocked and instinctively retreated.
Jin Xin looked up in confusion, and Cui Zhian realized that at some point, blood was slightly seeping from his seven holes, and sprouting grass grew from the wound of the broken nose, and he himself was still unaware of it.
When the others heard the movement, they all came over.
"What's going on, you two." Yu Xiaotian shouted: "If you don't leave, you two will be left..."
Suddenly, she stopped talking and looked at Jin Xin with a look of shock and horror.
Jin Xin's face, legs, and all over his body were covered with strange sprouting grasses. These grasses sucked the blood in his body, gradually turning blood red, and continued to grow out of his body.
Jin Xin finally felt it and let out a terrified scream: "Save me...Save me...I...I'm so itchy..."
He felt that there was nothing in his head, face, chest, limbs and bones that were so irritating that he couldn't help. He grabbed his whole body frantically, and while grabbing, he rushed to everyone to call for help.
Everyone dodged in horror.
"It's very evil here, everyone should leave quickly-" Tang Sanli screamed in horror, supported Chu Nan, and was the first to rush back.
Jin Xin's appearance was so terrifying that the others were so frightened that they dared not let him approach him, so they turned around and ran away.
"Ah--Save me--" Jin Xin let out a terrifying scream. Suddenly, his hands clenched out both of his eyes, and bloody grass grew in his blood-filled sockets.
Soon, he fell heavily. The weeds around his body had unusual fluctuations, as if they were moving closer to his body. His whole body was shaking from time to time. However, the grass growing all over his body became more and more lush, and the weeds around him were gradually dyed blood red...
Tang Sanli supported Chu Nan, Yu Xiaohu, Yu Xiaotian, Gan Yueyue, Yin Yiping and others all ran back frantically. Jin Xin's scene was extremely strange, beyond their understanding, and it was even more terrifying than being attacked by a corpse-turned monster.
No one knew what was happening to him, but he saw bleeding grass growing in his body. The more unknown the more terrifying the thing was.
Even Chu Nan, who was originally weak in the state of adrenaline-induced sequelae, ran desperately, almost wishing to stimulate adrenaline again and comprehensively improve various functions of the body.
“Hu…hu…”
Everyone was gasping for breath, running wildly towards the road with their feelings. It seemed that the most terrifying demons were hidden in the fog around them. As long as they escaped slowly, they would drag them down and swallow them.
The fog in front became thinner and thinner. Finally, they rushed out of the strange area of overgrown weeds and rushed into the farmland that was facing each other. Then, they couldn't help but fall down one by one, gasping for breath, and almost ran out of exhaustion.
It is strange that the fog just enveloped this weedy area, and there was no fog above the farmland ahead.
Before they entered the weed area, there was no fog. Obviously, it was after they entered that fog slowly emerged in this weed area. After that, it became thicker and thicker, and then, Jin Xin’s strange incident occurred.
No one is a fool. Now, seeing that the fog only covers the weeds, everyone understands that there is something strange about that weed.
Yu Xiaotian gasped and lay on the ground, his limbs became weak, and said, "Run...I can't run anymore...Why...Why is there no fog here..."
Gan Yueyue looked at the weeds rising in front of her and murmured: "Is it miasma? I heard that miasma is poisonous... Jin Xin may have been infected with this poison."
Chu Nan silently looked at the vast weed-growing area covered by fog and said, "It's not miasma. Miasma is mainly generated by the rotten animals and plants in the primeval tropical forests. There is no condition for miasma to form... Moreover, the formation of miasma takes a considerable time and will not appear suddenly."
Yu Xiaotian said: "Yes, if the fog is poisonous and we all suck it, why can we escape if only Jin Xin is poisoned?"
Sweet and speech are in a mess.
Chu Nan looked at the edge of the unknown weeds shrouded in the faint mist. After he looked closely, he found that these weeds were fluctuating irregularly in the breeze. His heart suddenly became shaking and he had a somewhat ridiculous idea.
"Maybe...these fog was released by these weeds." Chu Nan suddenly said something, and the others were stunned.
Tang Sanli looked at him and said, "Weeds release fog? Is there such grass?"
Chu Nan shook his head and said, "I don't know, but this is the only reasonable explanation."
Yu Xiaotian said strangely: "But why do they suddenly release fog?"
Chu Nan said: "Maybe it was because we invaded their territory, or... they were going to prey."
As soon as he said this, the hearts of others trembled. Yu Xiaotian said in a lost voice: "Preat? I...we? You...you treat them as animals, this is just grass..."
Chu Nan didn't say anything, but just silently looked at the unknown grass shrouded in the mist that could not be seen, but an inexplicable chill arose in his heart.
If it was really as he guessed, it would be terrifying.
Yin Yiping murmured: "But even if these grasses can really release fog, the fog should not make Jin Xin look like that, because if it is because of the fog, we can't escape it, then why is it just Jin Xin..."
