Chapter 256: Shock in the Mist



The white fog brought bursts of chill, and if you listened carefully, you seemed to hear some rustling sounds mixed in the fog.

Xiao Yu stood at the gate of Mr. Zhou's small building, his mind full of the messy supernatural events he had read on the website before.

That was when he was just starting high school, and the "Ya" website was still around. His curiosity about the unknown led him to search for things like UFOs, aliens, and paranormal events on the computer every time he went to the internet cafe during his holidays.

At first he didn't realize what it was, but later he gradually discovered that many supernatural events, including aliens, happened in the 1930s, 1940s, 1950s, 1960s, 1970s and 1980s.

Especially the articles about supernatural events in the 1950s and 1960s, which describe them in a very realistic way, and it is hard to tell whether they are true or not.

The reason he said he didn't know if it was true or not was because his aunt had told him a similar story before. She was said to have seen a dragon flying in the sky. She could even clearly describe the time, place, and weather conditions.

What impressed him most on the website were several articles describing people with special abilities and stories about the late 1950s and early 1960s.

He couldn't remember the specific plot of the story, as he had read it before his rebirth. But generally speaking, many stories would begin with something like—

——Something might have really happened in those years, and God was reminding me of something today and tomorrow.

There was pitch-black fog, crying sounds in the lake, floating human heads, and strange snake and toad spirits.

"...When strange things happen in some places, the first thing they do after the higher authorities resolve them is to tell the locals not to talk about it. They say that talking about it could cause trouble. Locals are timid and generally won't discuss the incident again. Over time, it slowly fades into oblivion."

Thinking of those words that had already blurred deep in his memory, Xiao Yu's scalp tingled. He subconsciously summoned the power of the incense to wrap himself.

Without him noticing, as the golden-red power of the incense enveloped him, the mist that touched his clothes quickly dissipated.

In a blink of an eye, the visibility in front of him stretched to half a meter, and it was still increasing rapidly. However, Xiao Yu's mind was full of strange things, so he didn't notice it for the time being.

at the same time--

The jeep, heading towards the Sijiucheng Machinery Factory, had to stop after moving at a snail's pace for over an hour. The fog was so thick that even if nothing happened, they would run out of gas if they continued.

However, the main reason why Xiao Liu and Zhou Yan had to stop was that the fog was so thick that it almost covered the front of their car. If their car windows had not been closed, and the fog had drifted in, they would probably not be able to see anything in the front and back seats.

"I've never seen such thick fog!" Xiao Liu said. He was a little nervous. He didn't know why, but the fog frightened him, as if something was going to pop out of it any moment.

Nothing emerged from the fog, but after a period of silence, the two people in the car simultaneously heard the sound of dense footsteps and voices passing by their car.

Zhou Yan thought of some stories the old soldier told him when he was a child, and slowly a dagger condensed in his left hand with the power of incense.

The dagger resembled a miniature spear, its tip a pitch-black, gleaming with a cold, sharp edge. Zhou Yan didn't notice anything when the miniature spear tip appeared, but Xiao Liu felt the temperature inside the car suddenly rise, but he didn't speak rashly.

What's even more bizarre is that Xiao Liu, who was in the driver's seat, could gradually see the front of their car after feeling the temperature inside the car rising, and the thick fog that enveloped their jeep seemed to be gradually fading away.

Just when Xiao Liu wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, a head suddenly emerged from the fog only half a meter away from them, a child's head.

The child looked very curious, but...

The face was clearly a paper-mache head of a child. In the past, this was often used to represent the golden boy and jade girl in funeral processions.

Xiao Liu closed his eyes for a moment and kept repeating in his mind that he was a staunch materialist. He was the royal guard chosen by Mr. Zhou after thousands of trials and tribulations. He would not be scared by any evil spirits.

"What are you looking at? Don't look around. Be careful of getting your eyes burned by the sun." A female voice sounded.

The child said jokingly, "Mom, there is a very powerful general living in the sun. I saw him holding a spear in his hand. He looks very majestic."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Do you still want to eat candied haws?"

"think."

"If you want to, leave now."

"Did you hear? Someone was hacked again at Caishikou yesterday."

"Hey, don't say that. We kill people every day."

"Well, you don't know. It's said that the man who was chopped off yesterday went to the tailor's shop last night, borrowed needle and thread from Tailor Wang, and sewed his head back on himself. And now, Tailor Wang is selling his shop early this morning. He even said he's moving out of the capital."

"In this chaotic war, if I leave the capital now, will I still be alive?"

“…”

"The old man ran away, let's run away too!"

"The foreign devils are coming."

“…”

"Oh no, we can't go into the city. The foreign devils are coming."

"The Queen Mother ran away."

"The foreign devils are coming..."

"biubiu..."

Time seemed to pass very quickly in the fog. After the initial fear, Xiao Liu was gradually attracted by the various conversations and opened his eyes.

A hot palm pressed on his shoulder, and he shivered. He saw from the rearview mirror that Comrade Xiao Zhou told him to be quiet.

Xiao Liu nodded, and the next second, a bloody corpse suddenly flew over the front of the car, followed by another. Xiao Liu wanted to do something, but his shoulder was pressed down tightly.
