Kneeling and begging the ancestors to be a good man

Chapter 431 Westwood Village [08]

The shift change time is two in the morning.

But at 01:30, Mo Qing woke up.

She opened her eyes and saw the people around her sitting up, her eyelids twitched, and then she looked at Shang Jiang Ke, calmed down a little, and half got out of the sleeping bag and sat up.

Jiang Ke took out the medicine bottle he carried with him, and poured out two pills for Mo Qing: "Have you smelled it?"

"Ah."

Mo Qing responded and pushed his hand back.

The camp lights outside were off, but the bonfire was still on. The light of the fire was separated by a layer of tent cloth, which made Mo Qing notice the damaged skin on the back of Jiang Ke's hand, and she frowned.

She said, "Eat it yourself, and I'll take a look."

"Are you okay?" Jiang Ke asked.

"It's okay." Mo Qing sniffed the smell in the mist lightly, "The toxicity should not be strong."

Jiang Ke was woken up by the burning sensation of his skin, while Mo Qing was woken up by smelling the smell in the fog with his keen sense of smell, but the reason for both is the same - the originally harmless fog has changed.

The two quickly came out of the tent.

Song Yiyuan and Chi Shi were still sitting by the campfire, and they were not surprised to see them get up.

"Both of you woke up because of the fog?" Song Yiyuan looked at them and added dry wood to the bonfire, "It seems that the neighbors are on alert because of the fog."

"Aren't they always on guard?" Mo Qing was not surprised.

Since she came back from the next door, the number of guards next door has doubled.

Song Yiyuan said: "It's even stricter, it seems to be guarding against something."

Jiang Ke asked: "Are you two alright?"

"No problem," Song Yiyuan waved his hand, "Mo Qing's medicine is quite effective. I took two pills in advance, and nothing happened now. Chi Shi's skin was red just now, and I used the medicine that Mo Qing brought back from the next door. Wipe your hands, the effect is too slow, once you take the medicine, it will be fine in less than 5 minutes..."

Song Yiyuan felt more and more that Mo Qing's title of "medical sage" was well-deserved.

Mo Qing sat down by the bonfire: "Go and rest, I will call you if there is a situation."

Song Yiyuan frowned: "Aren't you going to investigate the source of this poisonous mist?"

"It's not important." Mo Qing shrugged, "Our goal is Xiwu Village."

"……Row."

Song Yiyuan nodded.

Chi always followed the crowd, did not participate in their decision-making, and did not express any opinions from beginning to end.

The four changed shifts, Song Yiyuan and Chi Shi went to sleep in the tent, while Mo Qing and Jiang Ke stayed vigil by the campfire.Jiang Ke had nothing to do, so he picked up the pile of materials that Mo Qing brought back, and studied them carefully.

Mo Qing fiddled with the route map that Jiang engraved.

At the same time, an ordinary map was taken out for comparison.

While staying at home some time ago, she took two maps to study and circled the suspected location of Xiwu Village.Later, Hoss used the satellite system to take pictures, and what can be photographed are barren mountains and mountains, with no traces of villages at all.

At that time, their brains were wide open, and they even suspected that the residents of Xiwu Village lived underground.

"According to the route, it's only two days away?"

Mo Qing supported his chin with one hand, holding the map, the flames were beating, and the red dots were printed on the map through the paper.

She frowned: "Will it be so smooth?"

"Soldiers come to block the water and cover it with soil, and play by ear." Jiang Ke flipped through the documents without raising his head.

Mo Qing folded the map and threw it to Jiang Ke: "Put it away."

She was free, so she dug out some random snacks from her backpack, unwrapped them and ate them leisurely, and chatted with Jiang Ke about some unimportant things to pass the time.

Jiang Ke suddenly asked: "Are you okay?"

"what?"

Mo Qing didn't know why.

"Poison mist." Jiang Ke glanced at the white mist around him, "You haven't taken any medicine."

"Slightly toxic, it doesn't work on me." Mo Qing was a little sleepy, and looked at the white mist around him, "I'm afraid this mist won't dissipate for a while, so I'll call them both later."

The fog is getting thicker.

White mist billowed around them. Originally a bonfire was lit, which could illuminate the surrounding environment for one or two meters, but now they couldn't see anything behind them clearly.

Everything in the forest felt like it was paused.

Not even a little movement could be heard.

Including the campsite next door.

If Mo Qing hadn't been vigilant all the time, using acupuncture needles from time to time to test whether he was hallucinating, he might think that everything around him was fake.

"It's 05:30." Jiang Ke glanced at the time, "Call them after an hour."

"Ah."

Mo Qing agreed.

She listened for a while, then raised her eyebrows: "There is movement over there."

Jiang Ke heard the sound and listened carefully.

Originally, the sound was very low, but gradually, the sound from the next door became louder and became noisy.

Mo Qing and Jiang Ke looked at each other.

Mo Qing asked: "Want to take a look?"

Jiang Ke glanced at Chi Shi's and Song Yiyuan's tents, then nodded towards Mo Qing.

——With late vigilance and ability, there is nothing to worry about.

The two went to watch a show next door with flashlights. All the lights in the camp next door were on. There was an open space in the middle of the tent. A person was blocked. His eyes were red and he howled. After staggering a few steps, he suddenly grabbed his skin like crazy, with such force that his flesh was bloody in a blink of an eye.

The scene suddenly became bloody.

Almost subconsciously, Jiang Ke stood in front of Mo Qing to prevent her from seeing this scene.

The field of view was suddenly blocked, Mo Qing was stunned for a moment, and then he came to his senses.

She reached out to hold Jiang Ke, took a step forward, and stood shoulder to shoulder with him: "It's okay, I haven't seen anything?"

Jiang Ke looked at her sideways.

He wrapped her hand behind his back and pursed his lower lip slightly.

If possible, he hoped that the scene where she was so calm had never happened before.

Another person stepped forward, controlled the madman from left to right, and at the same time quickly tied him up with hemp rope.The man was still struggling, his face was full of scratches, blood and flesh mixed together, but he tried to break free as if he didn't feel the pain, and opened his mouth to bite his companion, but soon his mouth was crushed. sealed.

Xiao Yuqun stood by and watched until he completely controlled his actions before saying, "Give him the medicine first. Everyone, wear a gas mask and don't take it off until the fog clears."

He had already noticed Mo Qing and Jiang Ke, but he only took one look before turning around and wanting to enter the tent.

Mo Qing stared at his back, and said coolly: "Your information didn't say that the toxicity of this fog can make people go crazy."

Xiao Yuqun paused, then turned around: "It's also the first time we've met."

Mo Qing: "Really?"

"There's no need to lie to you." Xiao Yuqun frowned, "I've given you the information, and the most serious situation recorded above is hallucinations, not to the point of self-harm."

Mo Qing said: "However, there is no detailed record of each deceased in the documents."

These data records are divided into two parts.

Including those recorded by survivors in diaries, as well as those recorded by rescuers afterward.

They sent people into the mountain seven times in total, and the time spanned five years. The first two groups left without finding anything, and they didn't notice anything strange until the third group died collectively.

Among the next four times, three times encountered mountain fog, but two times encountered monsters and there were no survivors.

Xiao Yuqun said that none of those people survived, they encountered monsters, but is there a possibility that some of them also died from the poisonous mist?
"This is all I got." Xiao Yuqun said, "The poisonous fog is very random, and the source cannot be found. We can only focus on prevention. There is no way."

Mo Qing sneered: "It seems that you are all ready to die."

Xiao Yuqun was noncommittal: "This is our realization."

White mist shrouded the forest, and the surroundings were quiet. The people belonging to Xiao Yuqun all stood quietly, staring at Mo Qing and Jiang Ke with enlightened eyes.

For a moment, there was an indescribable weirdness.

Jiang Ke said to Mo Qing, "Let's go."

It's pointless to communicate with these people.

Mo Qing could also see it, said "Yes", and went back with Jiang Ke.

After leaving for a few minutes, the bonfire has become smaller.The spare dead wood was all used up, Mo Qing wanted to pick some up, and boil some hot water for washing.

Suddenly, Jiang Ke grabbed her wrist.

"Huh?" Mo Qing turned his head.

Jiang Ke's brows were tightly locked, staring at the direction of Chi Shi and Song Yiyuan's tent: "There was so much noise just now, is it possible for the two of them not to be woken up?"

Mo Qing's eyelids moved.

She took a quick look at the tent, and then immediately rushed to Chi Shi and Song Yiyuan's tent with Jiang Ke.

Their tents are farther away.

There were no signs of damage to the tent, but both the outer and inner tents were open. I scanned the inside with a flashlight, and there were only two sleeping bags inside, and no one was there!
