"Someone did live here before, but they were definitely not eaten by the people in the fog. Instead, they moved away for some reason!"

"But they live well here, why should they move away?"

"Are you afraid of the man in the fog?"

Bai Yao shook his head, "Probably not!"

"If the move happened after the Mist Man incident, given Mist Man's personality, he wouldn't let anyone leave Mist Mountain. The villagers of Tanshan Village wouldn't be able to leave even if they wanted to!"

"The real reason they moved away should be - the rainy season!"

The white demon returned to the collapsed house and pointed to the base of the half wall that had not collapsed yet. He said:

"I've always been curious about why the bases of all the houses here are slightly thinner and smoother than the walls."

“If you connect it to relocation, then it’s not hard to guess that the reason they relocated was because of the rainy season!”

The white demon took a few steps back and turned his head to look at the foggy mountain in the distance which was covered with white mist.

"This place is located in a basin with a narrow range. Once a heavy rain comes, it is difficult to drain the rainwater."

"When the water level rises, it will affect the lives of the villagers in Tanshan Village. However, the villagers of Tanshan Village rely on hunting for a living. It is definitely not possible to move away completely. If it were possible, they would have moved away long ago, and would not have dragged it on until modern times!"

"What's more, in modern times, only Wushan can accommodate them. Other places do not belong to them."

“So, they should have moved away temporarily, gathered somewhere, and come back after the rainy season is over!”

"But I didn't expect that as soon as they left, the Fog People came. Anyone who tried to explore Fog Mountain would be hunted down by the Fog People. The villagers of Tanshan Village couldn't return to Tanshan Village. Maybe they are now in some corner of Fog Mountain!"

"The base of the houses here is thinned by rain during the rainy season. Since the villagers of Tanshan Village cannot come back and repair it, it becomes thinner every year!"

Fu Yan couldn't help but look at the base of the wall that Bai Yao pointed to, and found that it was indeed as Bai Yao said, thinner than the wall, and the surface was smoother, with obvious signs of erosion.

"In other words, the villagers of Tanshan Village are still alive?"

The white demon hesitated for a moment, then shook his head.

"Not necessarily. The Man in the Mist just didn't kill Zhong Fei and the others. It's unclear whether he will attack the villagers of Tanshan Village..."

Just when the two were about to go somewhere else, they suddenly heard a slight, familiar bubbling sound that was not something that humans could make!

The white demon turned back alertly, "It's coming!"

Fu Yan knew what Bai Yao was talking about, and immediately prepared the scalpel to deal with the impending danger.

Bai Yao could hear the sound approaching, but he could not lock onto the source of the sound. It seemed as if the sound was coming from all directions.

The strange perception was still not triggered, as if the man in the fog had never been there from the beginning to the end.

"What's going on?"

Bai Yao frowned, feeling that he had overlooked something.

He still hadn't found the strange feeling this village brought to him...

"Close!"

The sound became louder and louder until all the sounds around disappeared, leaving only the slightly heavy breathing behind him. The white demon was frightened then, because there was a person in the fog behind him!

Bai Yao's muscles were tense, and the moment he was sure that the man in the fog was behind him, he swung the baseball bat in his hand!

thump—

It was like hitting steel, making a dull sound and causing Bai Yao's palm to go numb and feel a burst of pain.

The man in the fog opened his bloody mouth and remained strong after being hit by a stick. He opened his mouth again to bite.

Fortunately, at this time, Fu Yan acted in time, and stabbed out with the scalpel, forcing the man in the fog to stop moving for five seconds, and then quickly escaped with the white demon.

The man in the fog stared at the two men's backs viciously, as if he wanted to tear them apart and eat them...

It was not until they left Tanshan Village and re-entered Wushan that the two had the opportunity to find a place to hide and rest.

Before leaving Tanshan Village, Bai Yao took out the dice of fate again, still without saying anything, and threw it out.

The dice lands, one!

Bai Yao's eyes were deep as he recalled Tanshan Village. A flash of inspiration came to his mind, and he finally caught that strange feeling!

"I know, it's a layout!"

"What?" Fu Yan asked.

Bai Yao raised his finger and pointed at Tanshan Village, saying seriously:

"There's something wrong with the layout of Tanshan Village!"

Fu Yan narrowed his eyes slightly. Apart from the fact that the house was a little messy, he really didn't notice anything wrong.

The white demon looked at him dimly:

"Don't you think there are too many weeds there?"

Fu Yan still didn't understand. "No one has lived here for so long, there must be a lot of weeds. Isn't that right..."

Fu Yan's voice suddenly stopped, because he also discovered that there was something wrong with what Bai Yao said!

——There are too many weeds in Tanshan Village!

The white demon played with the dice of fate and said slowly:

"In fact, there was no road on the ground. When more people walked on it, it became a road!"

"This is because frequent trampling will cause the soil to become compacted and plant cells to be destroyed, resulting in almost no grass growing on the "road"!"

"There are many roads in Tanshan Village, so why are the weeds so dense?"

"Because... there are too many grooves!"

"The weeds grew out of the ditch, densely packed and beyond imagination, but not so dense that they blocked the road..."

"Why are there so many ditches? Is it for drainage? But there are too many, even to the point of being unreasonable!"

“But the route is well-planned, short and convenient, and the weeds on the roadside are either short or non-existent!”

"It feels like..."

Fu Yan took over the conversation and said firmly:

“Highlight the main subject—the road!”

Bai Yao nodded in appreciation, "Yes! It's the road!"

“I don’t know what the villagers of Tanshan Village think, but I don’t think anyone would dig so many unreasonable and meaningless ditches!”

"That is to say, these ditches were created by the people in the fog!"

“He wants us to get on the road!”

"As for the reason..."

Bai Yao looked at Fu Yan and said, "Next time you meet the Man in the Mist, don't attack me first. I need to verify my idea. If there is any danger, it won't be too late for you to attack me!"

Fu Yan nodded and tightened the scalpel in his hand.

"Let's go. We should go back first. We shouldn't stay outside for too long. This is a B-level copy after all. The abilities of the people in the fog are definitely not as simple as we see. We will feel more at ease when we return to the cabin!"

They returned along the same route when they escaped, so they were able to determine the direction of the cabin even in the fog.

After walking for a while, the familiar wooden house appeared before our eyes.

When they got around to the front of the house, they saw Chen Xing opening the door from time to time to see if they had returned.

It was not until he saw Fu Yan that the worry on his face turned into surprise, and he waved to Fu Yan:

"Fu Yan, are you okay?"

Although Fu Yan didn't really want to bother with this NPC teammate, he was set up to be Chen Xing's friend and couldn't do anything that went against his character.

He immediately waved at him:

"Don't worry, we're fine!"
