Chapter 465: Man in the Mist (9)
Just as Zhong He was about to say something, Zhong Fei secretly pulled him back. Zhong He seemed to realize something and immediately shut up.
"Go wherever you want, just don't attract the Man in the Mist!"
Zhong Fei said calmly.
"Okay, then I'll leave first!"
Having said that, Bai Yao was about to get up and leave.
"I will go with you!"
Fu Yan still planned to go with Bai Yao.
Chen Xing looked up at the two of them. Unlike yesterday, he did not speak to stop Fu Yan. There was struggle and hesitation in his eyes...
Just as the two of them walked out of the wooden house and were about to disappear in the fog, Chen Xing chased them out, shouting in panic:
"Fu Yan, wait for me!"
Seeing Chen Xing chasing after him, Fu Yan looked at him in surprise:
"Aren't you afraid of the people in the fog? Why are you coming with us?"
Chen Xing looked at the white fog around him anxiously. The psychological trauma of having his toes chopped off by the man in the fog made him always feel that the man in the fog was somewhere, looking at him with malicious eyes.
"I...I can't stay there any longer!"
"Fu Yan, you heard it yesterday, too. The man in the fog came knocking on the door. We were lucky that he didn't come in yesterday. If he had come in..."
There was a flash of fear in Chen Xing's eyes, and he obviously recalled something bad.
"The wooden house is so small, and there is no other exit. Once the people in the fog come in, we will have no way to escape and can only wait for death!"
"Instead of...instead of just sitting there and waiting to die, why not try to find a way out!"
Chen Xing said in a trembling voice, his eyes constantly scanning the surroundings, fearing that the person in the fog would suddenly jump out.
Bai Yao looked back at the wooden house looming in the mist and said softly:
“Talking as we walk!”
Fu Yan nodded, Chen Xing glanced at the wooden house, hesitated for two seconds, and then immediately followed.
"Um, Fu Yan, you guys are going to look for a way out, not the man in the fog, right?"
Remembering what Bai Yao said before leaving, Chen Xing swallowed and asked cautiously.
Bai Yao turned around and patted his shoulder:
"Don't worry, we are here to find the man in the fog!"
Chen Xing: “!!!”
What on earth do you want me to be assured of?!
"Fu Yan, please say something. Are you going crazy with him?"
Chen Xing grabbed Fu Yan's shoulders and shook him hard.
Fu Yan was a little impatient, but due to his character, he had to explain patiently:
"Chen Xing, Zhong Fei and the others have been here for three years and haven't escaped. Do you think you can find a way out after being here for a week with the Man in the Fog?"
Chen Xing was stunned. He wanted to refute but didn't know how to say it.
"So, we have to find the man in the fog first and kill him before we can leave Fog Mountain!"
"Deal with... the man in the fog?"
Chen Xing was dumbfounded. Has his good friend always been so brave?
Can you even talk about solving the problem of the man in the fog?
"Crazy! It's crazy!"
Although he said this, Chen Xing did not leave. Obviously, he had already agreed with Fu Yan's words in his heart, but his body was still shaking violently.
Seeing this, Bai Yao couldn't help but shook his head, "Don't worry, I will definitely be alive before you die!"
Chen Xing: “???”
Why are you leaving it here?
Chen Xing was speechless for a moment and even forgot to be afraid.
Suddenly, Bai Yao stopped, a look of solemnity appeared in his eyes, and he said seriously:
"Watch out, the Fog Man is coming!"
Chen Xing was startled and kept looking around, "The man in the fog is coming? Where is he? Don't scare me!"
Bai Yao ignored him and quietly judged the distance.
Fu Yan also quietly took out a scalpel, cut his palm, and let the scalpel suck blood.
"Ho..."
The dry bubbling sound that was not human-like echoed in the misty mountain. Even Chen Xing heard it and began to tremble again. His broken toe became more painful...

The crisp sound of leaves being crushed sounded behind Chen Xing. Chen Xing's face turned pale and he felt his heartbeat stop for a moment!
The man in the fog, behind him!
He screamed in fear, not daring to look back, and ran away, but was grabbed by the white demon and switched positions with him, facing the terrifying man in the fog!
Fu Yan's pupils shrank, and he was about to stab the man in the fog with the scalpel, but Bai Yao stopped him:
"Fu Yan, don't move!"
Remembering Bai Yao's instructions yesterday, Fu Yan did not take action, but the scalpel in his hand was less than three centimeters away from the man in the fog. As long as the man in the fog made the slightest movement, he would stab him without hesitation.
Chen Xing kept struggling, not even daring to open his eyes, but Bai Yao's hand was like a wire cutter, firmly holding him!
"Roar--"
The man in the fog opened his mouth and roared, and was about to bite off the white demon's head. Fu Yan's whole body was tense, and his eyes were fixed on the man in the fog, ready to save the white demon at any time.
The White Demon just stood in front of the Man in the Mist without even holding a baseball bat, as if he was going to die.
However, the next second, something unexpected happened to everyone!
The man in the fog opened his mouth. It was obvious that he only needed to close his mouth to bite off the white demon's head, but he did not move. It was as if the pause button was pressed and he could not bite off the head no matter what!
The corner of Bai Yao's mouth curled up, as expected!
"Bite? Why not bite? Don't you want to bite, or... don't dare to bite!"
The man in the fog revealed resentment in his scarlet eyes, and stared at the white monster viciously, but even at this point, he still did not bite it!
Chen Xing came back to his senses after hearing the white monster's voice. He turned around and saw that the man in the fog, who had scared him so much that he couldn't even sleep, was actually opening his mouth wide in front of the white monster, but was hesitant to bite.
There was a look of confusion in his eyes:
"What...what's going on?"
[Ah? Why? The man in the fog didn't attack the anchor! ]
[Could it be that the man in the fog also covets his wife's beauty? ]
【beaver!】
[It was clearly my wife’s domineering aura that intimidated the man in the fog (sure)]
【…】
The white demon's teasing voice continued:
"Aren't you going to leave yet? Are you going to continue being a clown?"
The man in the fog looked at the white demon with resentment, then unwillingly turned into white fog and disappeared.
Chen Xing looked at this scene in disbelief:
"Man in the fog, are you leaving now?"
The white demon looked at him with a smile, "If he doesn't leave, he'll become a clown in the circus!"
Chen Xing didn't understand, but he knew that Bai Yao was not simple and might be a big shot, so he asked carefully:
"What do you mean?"
The white demon pulled him in front of him, and in his sight, a tall sycamore tree appeared in front of him through the white mist.
"The man in the fog you see is actually this tree!"
Chen Xing's mind was a little confused. "Ah? What do you mean? The man in the fog is a tree?"
The white demon explained:
"To be precise, the man in the fog disguised the tree to look like him, which is - an illusion!"
"I encountered the Man in the Mist for the first time yesterday, and my weird perception was not triggered, which means there was no weirdness at all!"
"And the stick I hit didn't seem to hit Weird, it was more like hitting wood, very hard!"
"Plus, when we encountered the Man in the Mist for the second, um... the 1.5th time yesterday, he only appeared for a moment. He must have wanted to scare us, but the house happened to collapse at that time, and we fell to the ground and couldn't run. He was afraid that if he didn't chase us after he appeared, he would be discovered, so he disappeared!"
"So, the man in the fog was an illusion from the beginning to the end. He can't hurt us at all!"
