I Created the Myth of the Old Ruler

  Chapter 63 062.In the Mist

   Although the river city where Lu Zan lives is near the river, there is rarely heavy fog. Most of it is half-covered by misty mist on the river, like a gauze on a woman's face, covering the mountains and rivers.

  But now, what he sees is thick fog that can obscure his vision.

  The white fog filled the air, and the carriage was already vaguely seen less than one meter away. You could not see the night when you raised your head, and you could only see the gravel road when you lowered your head. The mist was tumbling, giving people a feeling of anxiety.

  The only consolation is probably the few lights on in the distance. The artificial brilliance penetrates the fog, guides the direction, and exudes a warm feeling.

  The coachman is a dark-brown, dark-skinned man. He put down his riding whip and glanced back.

   "I will pee."

   Lu Zan’s companion nodded, and the two watched as the coachman got out of the car and walked into the dense fog.

  He didn't go too far, Lu Zie could still see the back of the coachman through the thick fog.

   "My name is Drizzt. You can also call me Old Choi. As you can see, I'm a detective."

  The companion struck a match and lit the tobacco in the pipe.

  "?"

  Lu Yi has some questions.

Shouldn't the name Drizzt belong to a foreigner, or should he be called Drizzt?

  It’s weird.

"But having said that, the first time you met a companion, you should have just completed the guidance mission not long ago, within about four missions. Under such circumstances, you dare to choose the [Erosion] difficulty, and you are very courageous. "

  Drizzt took a mouthful of his pipe, looked away slightly from the coachman who was carrying his pants, and turned to the dimly lit light in the distance.

  "Fortunately, you met me and acted with me. After all, the difficulty of [Erosion] is easy to change. As long as you are careful, make decisions, and don’t trigger too many events, it’s fine."

  When he moved his gaze back, there was no more text.

   "Huh? Did you see it?"

  Drizzt asked Lu Zin.

  Lu Zan nodded.

  In front of him, the coachman was gone.

  The coachman shook his body just now and lifted his trousers. The moment he turned around, the fog became dense, covering him slightly, and then surging away.

  Then the coachman disappeared.

   Quietly, without warning, without any struggle.

  Drizzt reached into his coat and took out a revolver from the holster under his arm.

  He slowly came to the position where the coachman was sitting, and did not dare to go down to investigate. He only lifted the lantern on the side and illuminated where the coachman had disappeared.

  There are no traces of gravel roads and weeds.

  The fog seemed to be afraid of the light and retreated a little, revealing something gray and distorted.

"correct."

   Suddenly, a voice came from behind Drizzt, and his whole body was agitated, he quickly retracted his hand holding the lantern, and turned his head to look.

  Lu Zan held a crowbar in his hand and sat near the door.

  "Don't speak suddenly"

  Drizzt broke out in a cold sweat.

"Oh."

   Lu Zan nodded, and then said.

   "My name is Lu Zan."

"what?"

  Drizzt was stunned, but he didn't realize what Lu Zie meant.

   "My name is Lu Zin, introduce myself, it's polite."

   Lu Yi repeated it.

".understood."

   Drizzt thought, is there something wrong with this man in front of him?

  If his companions were not hostile, he might have to be wary of Lu Zie with a pistol.

   "[Erosion] Difficulty In addition to not taking the initiative to cause trouble, there are often troubles to come to us actively. It seems that this is the first test."

  He sat in the coachman's position and hung up the lantern.

  "Our mission goals are the same, at least we must first successfully go to the town of Low Water."

  Lu Yi did not express any objections.

  He doesn’t know how to ride a horse, and he doesn’t know how to drive a carriage, so he sits behind and guards.

  In the thick fog, only the one or two lights ahead support hope.

  "This is not a simple field road but some abandoned villages."

  Drizzt looked around while driving the carriage.

The fog is not static. Along with the movement of the carriage and the insignificant night breeze, these thick fog will also undulate like tidal waves. When it subsides a little bit, weeds on the roadside and hidden in the weeds can be seen. wreckage.

  Those are the remains of the building. I don't know what kind of impact it received to make the wall collapse like this. Some of them are still standing, but looming in the fog, like some kind of behemoth, ready to go.

  There is no sound in the fog, bugs, birds, commotion of nocturnal animals, nothing.

  The icy mist, with a slightly humid and decadent smell, penetrates into the lungs, making the body chill and trembling.

  The silent world is like death.

  Only horseshoes and the sound of wheels running over the gravel road filled the eardrums.

"I had a mission to the Kingdom of the Night before, but that time was a very simple survival mission. I stayed in a wine cellar for six hours until dawn and it was over. As long as there are guns and bullets, it is not a problem to deal with ordinary monsters. ."

  Drizzt may be really guiding the newcomer, perhaps to relieve his fear, and said.

   "I have never encountered this situation before, are we really close to those lights?"

  When he was a little suspicious, he found that there was no sound around him.

  Yes, even the sound of horseshoes and wheels disappeared.

  Drizzt glanced back in the carriage, Lu Zan sat in the chair without saying a word.

  The sound of horseshoes and wheels disappear, which means the car has stopped.

   "Drive!"

  Drizzt flicked his whip, but the horse did not move.

   "There seems to be something in front."

  Lu Zie raised his finger that was not holding the crowbar and pointed.

  Drizzt picked up the lantern and stretched out his hand forward.

  He saw that in front of the horse, at the place where the dense fog was dispersed by the light, there was a stone statue.

  The stone statue was surrounded by mist, and it was hard to see the concrete appearance.

  A light appeared behind Drizzt.

   Lu Yi took a strong flashlight, penetrated the fog, and hit the stone statue.

  This is a human-shaped stone statue, with slightly broken limbs in a kneeling posture, saluting in a certain direction, facing the carriage.

  But the head of the stone statue is not human.

   is a fish.

   is like cutting off the head of a fish and inserting it on a person’s neck.

  The shape of the fish’s head is also quite strange, sharper and more slender. The fish’s mouth is half open, revealing the jagged teeth inside. The gills of the fish are slightly open, and the finely carved internal structure can also be seen.

   "Normal stone statues will not be like this."

  Drizzt's voice was very soft, as if worried about disturbing someone sleeping in the fog.

  "This kind of stone statue, which is obviously used to worship certain gods, will not deliberately carve out defects, but the fish’s teeth, head and neck joints are all unnatural, just like"

   "It's like a real living thing has become."

  Lu Yi said the second half of Drizzt's sentence. He stretched out the crowbar, knocked on the stone statue, and chiseled a small piece, which was indeed a stone.

  "Go around it, at least there are lights pointing."

   Drizzt raised his whip and pointed forward, but he couldn't finish his words.

  Because in the mist, even the lights that promised warmth and hope disappeared.
