No one said when did the fog spread?

Everything happened so quietly. The sun completely fell under the horizon, and darkness enveloped the forest. They walked side by side in silence, holding horses. The forest at night was filled with wet water vapor. At this time, the fog emerged from every corner, wrapping the two of them in a void.

The light of the fire broker in his hand could not penetrate the increasingly thicker fog. The visibility was only five or six meters. The surroundings were terriblely quiet, leaving only the sound of stepping on grass leaves and dead branches. From time to time, a few hoarse crows came from the misty distance. Dong Zheng knew that they would better find a safe place to rest now so that they could spend the night.

But where do they want to find a safe place? They can't find the direction at all. No matter where they go, they will always be surrounded by ghostly shadows of trees and unchanging forest scenes in the dark.

"Where are we?" Ren Heming whispered, as if he was afraid that the sound would be a little louder, which would disturb the unknown existence in the thick fog forest.

"I don't know." Dong Zheng paused, and finally expressed the same concerns between the two of them at this moment, "Senior brother, are we lost?"

Although they really don't want to admit it, this is the truth after all - they are lost, and in the forest where the fog spreads late at night, the evil spirits they are going to hunt for are still lurking, and they are only two people and some talisman paper.

In any case, staying in place is the most dangerous choice. They move forward aimlessly, and the thick fog interferes with the judgment of the direction. I don’t know if they have been in circles. Anyway, they have been walking for more than an hour and have not been able to get out of the forest.

The road in the forest in the mountains was very difficult to walk, and there were not many fire brokers in stock. Dong Zheng felt tired, and the excessive wet and coldness made his mind a little dull.

I don’t know how long it took, but when I saw the hazy and warm light in the thick fog, Dong Zheng and Ren Heming thought they were dazzled for a moment.

"Light?" Ren Heming paused, and suddenly became energetic again. He patted Dong Zheng's shoulder hard and said, "Let's go and take a look."

The two of them walked quickly towards the light. The light was getting closer and closer. After about ten minutes, they finally arrived.

This is a temple, with a small half of the walls collapsed, and the front yard was overgrown with weeds, which obviously had been abandoned for a long time.

They walked into the temple where the air was leaking everywhere. The statues of the gods on the platform were crossed with their hands on their chests, covering them with thick layers of dust, and their faces were already blurred. There was a row of burning candles on the tribute platform. The candle oil stuck the red candles to the platform, and the burning hot wax left along the candle body, completely fixing the candle.

The blurred face of the statue was illuminated from bottom to top by swaying flames, and the shadows shrouded from the top of the head, showing a kind of evil and evil nature that should not appear here at all, which was particularly bizarre.

Dong Zheng quickly observed the surroundings. This place may have been a temporary place for beggars or passers-by. There were many haystacks next to the pillars. They stood in the center, and there were Gongtai and statues in front of them.

"Someone must have been here not long ago." Ren Heming murmured, pressing his hand on the embroidered spring knife, alertly, "Maybe the person who lit the candle has not left yet."

He took a step towards the shadow behind the statue, and the floor creaked overwhelmed.

"Wait a minute, this is not right." Dong Zheng stretched out his hand to hold him. The moment his finger touched Ren Heming's elbow, an indescribable dull sound came from the ground, and there was an unknown violent vibration.

not good!

The moment before his feet lost support, Dong Zheng immediately turned around and jumped, hugged the pillar beside him, and Ren Heming screamed and fell down with the broken floor. However, before Dong Zheng could make the next reaction, the pillar broke.

In the candlelight, under the indifferent gaze of the statue of the god, he fell into the abyss below.
