The Dharma Sea of ​​the Green Snake

Chapter 335

"So, Xiaoqing has been in this fog for more than three hours?"

After listening to the description of the three civet cat brothers, Pei Wende, who finally had a solid idea, asked this question.

"Yes, after Sister Qing let us leave the mist, she went to the depths of the mist alone."

In fact, it is strange to say that Xiaoqing wandered around the edge of the fog for a long time with the three civet cat brothers.

But after the three civet cat brothers left the mist, Xiaoqing disappeared into the mist very smoothly, as if the wandering before was just an illusion.

"A fog that only accepts 'destined people'? It really looks like a place in various ghost novels."

Pei Wende didn't know if he was a so-called "destined person", but this did not prevent him from entering this weird fog.

"You three get out of here first, what's wrong with me entering the mist?"

After making exactly the same arrangement as Xiaoqing, Pei Wende turned around and walked into the depths of the mist without looking back, leaving only the three civet cat brothers in a daze, at a loss.

"This……"

"Little master, is he going in now?"

"Then why are we the only ones who can't get in?"

……

Under the stupefied gaze of the three civet cat brothers, Pei Wende was disappeared by the strange mist just as soon as he turned around, just like Xiaoqing before.

This means that the other party has also successfully entered the weird fog, instead of just wandering on the edge of the fog like the three civet cat brothers.

"Then shall we go back now?"

......................................................................................................

I don't know what happened after I turned around.

Pei Wende only knew that this fog seemed to have spirituality, and after confirming his wishes, he took himself to the real center of the fog.

Yes, in Pei Wende's feeling, it wasn't the fog that he went to.

Rather, this fog is actively leading me forward, as if mountains, rivers, land, and forests are actively shortening the distance between myself and the center of the fog.

In just a moment, Pei Wende saw the "village" that the three civet cat brothers mentioned.

Indeed, as the three brothers said, this is just a small village with a population that will never exceed fifty.

And every family is scattered in the col, instead of living in groups like ordinary villages.

With just a cursory glance, Pei Wende found that even the shortest distance between these families was at least a hundred feet apart.

"It's not so much the folks who live together, it's better to say that they're hunters who join forces temporarily in the mountains."

Because they don't have enough trust in each other, or they don't live here for a long time.

Although hunters hunting on the same mountain will help each other, they rarely set up hunting houses in the same place.

These beings called "villagers" by the three civet cat brothers are in a similar state, and they only maintain the simplest "knowledge" relationship with each other.

"If it weren't for the scenes of people walking across the fields and seeing each other, I would really think that I have entered the 'Peach Blossom Land' by mistake."

After making a simple complaint, Pei Wende walked towards the nearest house.

During this process, Pei Wende found that the fog around him gradually dissipated.

It is as if a "beauty" who has been demystified is inviting herself into her boudoir.

......................................................................................................

Under Pei Wende's astonishing foot strength, he only took a few minutes to complete the distance that ordinary people would need to walk for more than half an hour.

Then he heard a dog barking and a rooster crowing from the hut not far away, and at the same time there were fragmentary and noisy panic from the owner of the house.

"Uh, I almost forgot about my crow's mouth."

Seeing this situation, Pei Wende had no choice but to complain and stop.

Ever since he practiced the "Mantra", Pei Wende found that some of his complaints from time to time would be astonishingly fulfilled.

It's like he didn't know whether it was because of his own complaints that caused the barking and crowing of the cock, or whether the hounds domesticated by the family had indeed discovered him first.

Considering that his footsteps are very light, and there is still some distance from that room, Pei Wende thinks that his "crow's mouth" attribute should play a role.

"Who? Who's there?"

In just a few breaths, the owner of the house appeared in Pei Wende's field of vision.

It was a young man wearing rough cloth and holding a hatchet. Judging from the appearance and attire of the other party, Pei Wende couldn't even deduce the identity of the other party effectively for a while.

And appearing with this young man, there is also a black hound half as tall as a man.

Pei Wende is not a dog lover, and he doesn't know the breed of hounds, but it doesn't prevent him from seeing the ferocity of the black hound.

"Don't worry, I'm not a bad person."

Raising his hands high, Pei Wende expressed his innocence with an international hand.

"I just entered this fog because I wanted to find someone."

After summarizing his own situation in the simplest words, Pei Wende looked at the doubtful young man, but also muttered in his heart.

Because Pei Wende found the young man's accent a bit strange, so strange that he had stayed in Weishan for more than ten years, and had never heard a similar accent.

Fortunately, Pei Wende didn't dwell on this issue for too long.

Because in this age of ten different pronunciations, there are too many unfamiliar dialects.

In contrast, it was the boy's next words that aroused Pei Wende's surprise.

"Into this fog? Are you an outsider?"

Hearing the young man's vigilant questioning, Pei Wende thought inwardly that something was wrong, he seemed to have fallen into some kind of misunderstanding?

These people living in the mist seem to be as isolated from the world as the "Peach Blossom Spring", and have little contact with outsiders?
"Dahei! Bite him!"

Before he had time to think too much, just when Pei Wende wanted to explain something, the black hound rushed towards him amidst the boy's calling.

Clang!
In the blink of an eye, Pei Wende made a sword art with two fingers together, and the dog-leg knife on his waist suddenly came out of its sheath.

"It really is those monsters outside!"

Seeing this, the young man waved the hatchet in his hand, not to be outdone, and also slashed towards Pei Wende.

The astonishing tacit understanding of one person and one dog at this moment even made Wen Wende feel that what he was dealing with was not just a mere mortal, but a practitioner who specialized in taming animals.
