Chapter 188 The Valley in the Mist
Although the valley Ding Fusheng mentioned is just behind the big mountain behind Xiaoping Village, it sounds very close, but the distance is not close. The mountain road is rugged, and all kinds of trees and shrubs block the road. It still takes a lot of time.

It is a common thing that there are valleys deep in the mountains. It is said that the ancestors of this Xiaoping village planted fruit trees and herded goats in the valley when they first arrived, but I don’t know when this valley gradually became Xiaoping Village. forbidden area.

In the beginning, this valley was not a forbidden area, but a place to be avoided, just like weird places like cemeteries and mass graves.

It's hard to judge when it became such a taboo place, but it seems that it started when the first hanging tree baby was buried in that valley.

From then on, except for a few brave men, people in the village rarely went to this valley. After all, everyone thought that the baby was very angry and did not want to go to that place again.

Later, the people in the village seemed to reach a certain consensus in silence. The hanging tree babies were all buried in this valley, and no one would approach them easily except for the annual worship and burial.

However, there is one thing that really makes this valley a forbidden area. The family of Ding Bold, a sheep herder, had been herding sheep in this valley decades ago because Ding Bold did not believe in evil.

Suddenly another day, when this guy was daring to herd the sheep, there was a thick fog in the valley, and he couldn't see anything where he reached out his hand for a whole day and night.

But there is a heavy fog in this mountain, where is it easy to find people, not to mention how dangerous it is to go rashly if you can't see the mountain road clearly, let's say that the poisonous snakes and beasts hidden in the fog are all deadly.

Coupled with the rumors that came from nowhere, saying that the thick fog was caused by the hanging tree baby, it was surprising that no one dared to brave the thick fog and enter the valley to find someone.

One day and one night passed, and when the fog cleared, I dared to go in to find someone. Before I went in, I saw Ding Boldly lying not far from the mouth of the valley, his clothes were torn, his hair was messy and covered with broken leaves, and his mouth was white. foam.

Everyone hurriedly woke him up, but this Ding boldly woke up with a panicked expression, talking nonsense, he was already crazy.Everyone didn't know what to do, so they had to send him home.

I thought there was nothing wrong, but within three days, the whole family died, leaving only a bloody "sacrifice" on the wall.

For a moment, Xiaoping Village was so frightened that people didn't dare to approach the valley. Some people even wanted to move away, and they were from the older generation.

The big guy immediately slaughtered pigs and sheep to bravely go to the valley to worship. Since then, this valley has become a forbidden place. Except for worship and burial, no one has ever stepped into it.

Ding Fusheng walked all the way, talking to Henry Zhang about the valley. As for what happened that year, he heard the details from the elders in his family.

In detail, Ding boldly belonged to his grandfather's generation. He was not born when the accident happened, so he didn't know the details.

It’s just that the story is put here now, plus the hanging tree baby and the nightmare, whether it’s Henry Zhang or Ding Fusheng, they still have their own guesses in their hearts, that there is really a problem with this valley.

The road leading to the valley has not been walked by many people for a year, and a lot of vegetation has grown horizontally and blocked it.Ding Fusheng led the way with a sharp hatchet in his hand, while cutting the grass and trees to open a path.

Henry Zhang and Ren Tingting followed behind, his ghost stag beetle was released quietly, and he followed and guarded in the bushes on both sides. This valley was different, so he had to be on guard early.

The three of us walked for a long time, and the air became more humid as we walked towards the back of the mountain. I don't know if it was because of the lush forests, or because the temperature in the mountain began to drop as the sun gradually set. In the end, the mountain road became more and more slippery. Difficult.

Finally, when the sun had completely set, the three of them arrived near the entrance of the valley.

At this time, the valley was filled with thick fog like a white cloth for some reason, and the white mist completely covered the valley, like a white abyss, or like the terrifying mouth of some unknown giant beast.

For some reason, all three of them thought about that Ding Bold story at this time. The white mist might be hiding an unknown danger.

"Brother Xuan, do you want to go in?"

Ren Tingting turned her head to look at Henry Zhang, the fog was not yet clear, and she worried that Henry Zhang would be in danger if he went in.

Henry Zhang shook his head, his brows were tightly frowned, it was only now that he felt it carefully, the fog seemed to be not an ordinary thick fog in the mountains, it actually carried a trace of undetectable evil spirit, I am afraid that something was released to cover the valley.

So Henry Zhang said: "I sent Gu worms to go in and have a look, this fog is weird, don't go in."

The fog was thick and the situation was unclear. Henry Zhang did not dare to send the main force to rush in, but released the Yin Locust from the black coffin space, which was a feed Gu insect that had not been used for a long time.

There were about a dozen Yin locusts. After coming out of Henry Zhang’s black coffin space, they scattered and flew into the mist, and began to investigate the situation towards the valley.

The three of Henry Zhang found a place where a big rock was outside the valley to rest, and then they took advantage of this rest to ingest a cloud of mist and controlled it in their hands.

He took out an exorcism talisman with his left hand and struck it, only to see that the exorcism talisman ignited spontaneously without fire, and after a bang, a cyan smoke came out of the mist, which was indeed the evil spirit he had perceived earlier.

Ren Tingting saw it and asked, "Brother Xuan, what is this?"

Henry Zhangdao: "This is a monster, it seems that there are monsters in the valley."

Ren Tingting nodded slightly, and then asked: "Is it a monster behind the scenes?"

Henry Zhang glanced at the valley, and then said: "Maybe, it's hard to say everything without knowing the situation now."

The fog in the valley is so thick, even after investigating the situation in a while, it will take a lot of work to get in, otherwise it is too dangerous to see the enemy from the dark.

Henry Zhang was thinking about this, and suddenly his expression changed, the connection with Yin Locust was broken, it seemed that Yin Locust was entangled by something and strangled.

After the first Yin locust was killed, the connections of the dozens of Yin locusts began to be broken one after another. It seemed that something in the valley had discovered the strange insect called Yin locust.

"Brother Xuan, what's the matter?" Seeing Henry Zhang's expression changing, Ren Tingting knew that something had happened, so she asked.

"The locust is dead, something is in the fog."

Henry Zhang’s answer made Ren Tingting frown slightly. The locust died before anything was found out, and it would be dangerous to send another Gu insect in. Life Gu is not such a risky investigation.

She said: "Then what to do, the fog is so thick, it's not easy to go in."

The fog is heavy, but Henry Zhang has a way to dispel the fog. Just pile up a pile of firewood at the mouth of the valley, add spiritual woods such as peach wood and jujube wood to it, ignite it with a spiritual fire, and then cast the spell himself. The mist dissipates.

But in this way, the movement will be very loud, and it will definitely attract the attention of the things inside, instead of the smaller movements like the Yin locust, even if you encounter the things inside, you may not be vigilant.

The two were in a bit of a dilemma, but at this moment Ding Fusheng suddenly shouted: "Doctor Zhang, do you think the fog has dissipated?"
