Courtyard House: Why is my time-travel experience so shabby?

Chapter 1198 Corpse

After five intermittent gunshots, the entire forest returned to silence, leaving only endless white fog rising into the sky and covering the earth, covering all directions.

"Third Master, why did the gunfire stop? Did something happen to the gentleman?"

Yuan Ying looked anxious, her brows furrowed, and her hand subconsciously grasped the long red whip at her waist, with veins bulging on the back of her hand.

"No, he is a demon. No one in the world can kill him within five shots, not even gods can do it."

Hu San spoke with confidence and looked very calm. He even took off his mask and lit a cigarette.

"But~" Yuan Ying was still worried.

"No buts! People say that caring too much can lead to confusion. Sakurako, I think you've lost your mind!" Hu San interrupted directly.

Two streams of white smoke came out of his nostrils, and he scolded unhappily:

"There were five shots fired just now, less than two minutes apart, and the last shot was clearly several miles away.

Apart from anything else, the speed alone is already shocking. With your weight, you are still worried about other people's safety?"

"Xiaoying, what Master San said is correct. To be exact, the interval between the five shots was 1 minute and 23 seconds, and the last shot was two kilometers away from us."

Yuan Qianye also added that he had the ability to identify locations by sound, and the data he provided was more accurate.

1 minute and 23 seconds, 2 kilometers in total, which is equivalent to 86 kilometers per hour.

It sounds like a commonplace thing that can be easily achieved by any diesel engine, but in fact it is not.

You have to know that Du Weiguo is a flesh and blood person, and now it is a dense forest, there is no way to go. What's more, there is thick white fog around, blocking his vision.

To sum up, Du Weiguo's speed is unprecedented and will never be surpassed.

"Sir, you are so amazing, you are like a god descending from heaven."

Yuan Ying was dazzled, her face full of shock and admiration, and she murmured in a low voice. She was an expert in speed and knew the value of this speed.

"Sa~"

In the middle of the night, in the inky black jungle, a sharp sound of breaking wind suddenly sounded.

The god Du Weiguo mentioned by Yuan Ying landed on a big tree like a giant owl. At this moment, he had already escaped from the range of the white fog.

"Hohohoho~"

Because he was wearing a half-face mask, Du Weiguo's laughter sounded a little eerie.

Looking back at the white fog, there was a gleam in his eyes, as if he was ready to choose someone to devour.

"As expected, this damn barrier can confine space and prevent me from teleporting, but it can't stop me from physically passing through."

Du Weiguo's way of traveling just now was indeed quite extreme. He first fired a shot in a random direction, and when the bullet was about to leave the limit of his field of vision, he teleported to chase after it.

Then he fired another shot in the direction the bullet was flying. In this way, he followed the bullet five times and finally reached the edge of the white fog.

Normally, he could get out in just a few seconds using this method, but in order to keep the secret of teleportation, he deliberately delayed it for a while.

The fog array on Mount Bilecik is somewhat similar to Skull Island, but they are completely on a different level.

The huge semicircular area confined by the fog of Skull Island has a radius of several hundred kilometers. It truly covers the sky and blocks out the sun, forming a world of its own.

Outside the key fog, there are surging sea eyes and countless reefs that form a natural barrier, making it difficult for birds to cross.

The fog in front of us is much smaller, with a radius of only 3 kilometers, less than one-tenth the size of Skull Island.

At the edge of the fog, the strange milky white smoke has become very scarce and the fog has become much lighter, but teleportation is still impossible.

Fortunately, at this point, the fog could no longer block his vision, and he managed to jump out of the last section of the journey by means of a vertical leap.

The moment he left the white fog, the spatial anchor points in his consciousness returned one after another, and he could travel thousands of miles in an instant.

"Tsk tsk, no matter who this guy hiding in the dark is, I have to admit that he has some real skills.

Could it be that there is some powerful force behind the temple in Muscat? Damn, which god have I offended again?"

Du Weiguo muttered to himself and looked up at the sky.

At this moment, the fog was like a giant white bowl upside down on the mountain ridge. The fierce and strong mountain wind at night could not blow away the white fog at all.

The next moment, Du Weiguo disappeared, and more than ten seconds later, he reappeared in his original position.

At this moment, his brows were furrowed and his expression was extremely solemn.

"No one. The idea is hidden in the fog. Damn, are you going to get involved? Hiss, the situation is a bit troublesome."

In just over ten seconds, Du Weiguo teleported 17 times.

First, he teleported to a high altitude and looked down at the fog clearly. Then he scanned every corner and the surroundings from top to bottom, but did not find any trace of human beings.

Therefore, this fog is undoubtedly man-made, and the real owner must be in the fog.

Once bitten by a snake, one will be afraid of ropes for ten years. Due to the painful experience on Skull Island, Du Weiguo is now extremely afraid of this kind of barrier-like terrain.

The white fog in front of him not only blocked his vision, but also restricted his teleportation. It was really terrifying to re-enter it.

  Everyone wants to win and is afraid of losing, and Du Weiguo is no exception.

In this white fog, his abilities were greatly weakened, especially his extraordinary vision, which he had long been accustomed to, was also restricted, making him extremely uncomfortable.

It feels like an ordinary person with 1.5 vision in both eyes suddenly becomes severely myopic, which is very difficult to adapt to.

But they had no choice but to go in. Hu San and the others were still trapped in the fog. If they delayed for too long, some unpredictable changes would inevitably occur.

The yew tree that served as a marker and burned like a torch was not visible because of the distance and the flame was obscured by the white mist.

But this did not pose a problem for Du Weiguo. He easily found his way along the thick smoke that was floating in the sky like a black flag.

"boom!"

Du Weiguo dropped from the sky like a meteor. Hu San and the others were startled. When they saw that it was him, they quickly surrounded him.

"Sir, I just heard you firing a gun. Did you spot the enemy? Where are they? Are you okay?"

  Yuan Ying asked a series of questions in a hurry. Du Weiguo smiled and patted her shoulder, and replied simply:

"I didn't find any enemies. I just fired my gun to test the boundary of the fog and calculate its specific range."

"Then have you tried to figure out how big the range of this fog is?"

At critical moments, Hu San was still able to grasp the key points.

Du Weiguo nodded: "Well, we found out after testing it. The whole fog is roughly circular, with a radius of about 3 kilometers."

"Hiss~" Upon hearing this, everyone subconsciously took a breath.

A radius of 3 kilometers may not sound large, but it is actually not. The area of ​​the entire fog is as high as 28 square kilometers, which is the size of a medium-sized county town.

  Hu San couldn't help but swear:

"Fuck, nearly 4 acres, what a big deal! Damn it, these bastards really spent a lot of money to deal with us."

"Haha, that's right. With the all-powerful Third Brother Hu on the scene, how could he possibly stop us without spending a huge amount of money?"

Du Weiguo was picky and made a joke.

Upon hearing this, Hu San blushed and scratched his head awkwardly:

"Brother-in-law, we are all family, real relatives. I know my own worth, so please stop talking bad about me."

"Sir, where are we in the fog now?" Among the few people, Yuan Qianye was the calmest.

"Good question!" Du Weiguo looked at him with satisfaction and gave him a thumbs up.

Then he picked up a branch, drew a circle on the ground, drew a cross in the center of the circle, and finally put a dot in the lower left corner of the circle.

  Du Weiguo pointed at that spot with a branch:

"We are now in the southwest of the entire fog, less than 2 kilometers away from the nearest edge."

  Yuan Ying asked in confusion:

"Sir, this fog is blinding me. I can't tell east, west, south, or north. How do you know where you are?"

"Idiot! Yingzi, can you use your brain a little more? It's early summer now, and the wind is blowing from the southeast. Look up at the black smoke in the sky."

Hu San patted her on the head in annoyance and answered the question for Du Weiguo.

All three of them were considered top experts, and they all had night vision abilities. With their eyesight, they could barely see a few dozen meters away in the thick fog.

And the burning tree happened to be at the edge of their vision.

Yuan Ying raised her head and looked at the black smoke that was slowly floating in a certain direction in the sky. It appeared extremely clear in the white mist.

"Oh, oh, that's it." She suddenly realized.

Hu San sneered, pinched his chin, pretended to be profound, and said in a deep voice:

  "Why else do you think the trees were set on fire? To keep warm? Or to find the direction?

"Yingzi, remember, these are all priceless martial arts experience, you should learn more from them!"

"Sir, you are so amazing! You can do anything!"

Yuan Ying simply ignored Hu San's pretense and looked at Du Weiguo with admiration, with little stars in her eyes.

"Sir, then we are only about one kilometer away from the center of the fog, in that direction."

It had to be Yuan Qianye. He quickly determined the location through the simple map drawn by Du Weiguo on the ground and the direction of the black smoke.

"Yes, that's right." Du Weiguo became more and more satisfied with Qian Ye.

"Sir, the center of most barriers is usually located in the center, especially for this kind of circular fog barrier, the origin must be the center!" "Sir, the guy hiding in the dark is very likely hiding here!"

Yuan Qianye pointed in the direction of the origin, looking a little excited, with fighting spirit rising in his eyes like a raging fire.

"That's right, brother-in-law, let's just charge in! Pull out all these evildoers, I'm going to skin them alive!"

Hu San was also excited, his face turned red, and he was filled with murderous intent.

"Hmm~"

Du Weiguo hesitated. What should he say? The situation in the fog was unclear, so he preferred to fight alone.

  Hu San was well-versed in human relationships and immediately realized what Du Weiguo was hesitating about. His face immediately darkened:

"Brother-in-law, what do you mean? You just promised me with all your heart that when the time comes, we will fight together. What? Do you want to go back on your word now?"

  Seeing that Du Weiguo still pursed his lips and said nothing, Hu San's eyes flickered and he added in a faint tone:

"Brother-in-law, do you think so little of us?"

Damn, I haven't been morally kidnapped for a long time, it's still quite fresh. Du Weiguo shook his head helplessly:

"Third brother, what are you talking about? How could I look down on you? I'm just thinking that the situation is weird and unclear now. Should we avoid the sharp edge for the time being, or rush forward directly!"

"Nonsense! I don't even need to think about it. Of course I'll just rush up and beat them up!"

Hu San shouted without thinking, his spit spurting out for several meters.

"Brother-in-law, you are the God of Death! The invincible God of Death. If you are frightened by a few nameless people and turn around and run away, and the news spreads, our flag will fall."

"Sir! If they really had some great ability, they wouldn't have hidden themselves and gone to such great lengths to lead us here.

Even if we really can't help you, at least we have the power to protect ourselves, and we won't become a burden to you."

Yuan Qianye was as calm as ever, speaking in an orderly and clear manner.

However, the surging fighting spirit and earnest desire in his words could not be concealed.

"That's right, sir, let's beat them. I don't believe that these bastards can be so powerful."

Yuan Ying had been scratching her head anxiously for a long time. After listening to what Hu San and Qian Ye said, she quickly joined in.

"Haha~" Du Weiguo laughed:

"Everyone's fighting spirit is very high. They are excited about the war. Good. Well, let's fight them together!"

"Yeah!" When they heard that he agreed, everyone showed joy on their faces, and Yuan Ying even cheered out loud.

  "But~" Du Weiguo suddenly changed the subject:

"I'm going to make it clear, when we start, you must obey my orders. No matter what my orders are, you must follow them."

When speaking, Du Weiguo changed his previous loose and lazy tone, and his tone was stern, and even emitted a hint of murderous aura.

His eyes, as cold as a knife, swept over Hu San intentionally. These words were mainly meant for him.

Hu San's personality is arrogant, erratic, unruly, and he is a man of many stripes, full of the spirit of a gangster, or in other words, a bandit.

Such a person is the perfect choice for being a friend, and he is definitely loyal. However, it would be inappropriate to have him as a subordinate, as he would definitely be a thorn in the side and difficult to tame.

"Yes!" Naturally, the Yuan brothers and sisters responded to Du Weiguo's order without hesitation.

  Hu San had been playing around in the human world for hundreds of years and was well-versed in worldly affairs. Of course, he understood Du Weiguo's meaning in an instant and patted his chest to assure:

"Okay, brother-in-law, you don't have to point at me anymore. I promise to obey your orders. Even if you ask me to stab you three times and pierce you, I will do it without hesitation!"

  Du Weiguo did not give up the topic. His expression remained serious, and he stared at him intently:

"Third brother, I certainly won't let you hurt yourself, but I may ask you to retreat or even escape. When that happens, don't shake your head."

Upon hearing this, Hu San was stunned at first, and then a trace of anger rose in his heart.

  He has a strong character and would rather break than bend. He has been in power for decades. When has he ever run away from the battlefield?

Back then, when he was surrounded by the Japanese Onmyoji, if he had been able to see the situation was not good and turn around and run for his life, he would not have been seriously injured and his skills would not have been ruined.

However, when he raised his head and met Du Weiguo's eyes, which were as deep as pools and captivating, his resentment instantly ceased.

"Okay, I accept. No matter what the order is, I will obey it and ensure that it is carried out!"

Hu San's voice was muffled and he seemed a little aggrieved, but his tone was serious and did not sound perfunctory.

"it is good!"

Du Weiguo turned to the Yuan brothers and sisters and shouted:

"The same goes for both of you. When you hear the order, you must execute it immediately and unconditionally. There is no room for bargaining! Do you understand?"

"understand!"

The Yuan siblings were captivated by Du Weiguo's fierce murderous aura, and subconsciously raised their heads and chests and replied in a solemn voice.

"Okay, let's go. We'll form a long line. I'll lead the way, and Third Brother will bring up the rear. Keep moving at a steady pace!"

Du Weiguo didn't hesitate. He put the scabbard on his shoulder and rushed into the white fog first.

"Brother, the gentleman was so fierce just now. I was so scared that I broke out in a cold sweat."

In the team, Yuan Ying took a few quick steps and came up behind Qianye, whispering softly.

"What do you think? Sir, you are the God of Death, unrivaled in the world. His reputation is not blown, but built with human lives. Naturally, his power is as mighty as a mountain and as powerful as the sea."

Qianye lowered his voice and replied, his tone carrying a sense of pride.

Yuan Ying felt the same way: "Yeah, it's really like a mountain and a sea. Even the Third Master was frightened like a quail and didn't dare to breathe."

Hu San was very sharp-eyed and sharp-eared, and when he heard the two siblings' discussion, he immediately got furious.

"Yingzi, who are you talking about? You are the one who looks like a quail. I am not like that. I am~"

Du Weiguo in front suddenly shouted, "Shut up! Focus on moving forward and pay attention to your left and right!"

After he roared, the world finally quieted down.

As the old saying goes, "If you look at the mountain, you will die if you run too fast." The straight-line distance in the mountains and forests is 1 kilometer, but the actual distance is much farther. If you pass by cliffs on the way, you will need to take a detour of more than ten kilometers.

Coupled with the thick fog that obscured their eyes and confused their directions, even though Du Weiguo and his companions were extraordinary people and did not take the usual route, they still stumbled along the way and only advanced a few hundred meters in a few minutes.

"Qianye, go and order another tree, pick a taller one."

Du Weiguo suddenly stopped and gave the order.

There was no way. The closer to the center point, the thicker the white fog became. The burning yew tree was too far away, and the black smoke in the sky could not be seen.

After walking this way, even he couldn't tell the direction.

“Yes!” Qian Ye responded and climbed up a tall old oak tree not far from his side.

A few minutes later, the oak tree also turned into a giant torch, with black smoke rising into the sky.

Hu San looked up at the direction where the smoke was drifting, made a brief identification, then walked up to Du Weiguo and pointed straight ahead.

"The direction is correct. According to the distance, we should be not far from the point."

"Ha~" Du Weiguo sneered: "It's not far, Third Brother, we have arrived."

"Hmm? Are we there yet?"

Hu San frowned and was about to ask a question when he was suddenly interrupted by a shrill roar coming from the white fog ahead.

"Ow~"

Du Weiguo's face was calm and he gave the order decisively.

"Get up in the tree, prepare for battle, and shoot from a distance!"

As he finished speaking, a flash of black light shot out from his wrist, and the Nine Nether Lock hooked onto the trunk of a nearby tree.

The next second, Du Weiguo exerted force with his wrist and leaped up like a night owl. In a flash, he had landed steadily on a branch.

While moving, he also put his arms around Yuan Ying's slender waist, and brought her up at the moment she was stunned.

"First, sir~"

Yuan Ying was confused by this sudden intimate behavior and stammered.

I felt the arms that were as solid as gold and iron hugging me, and the thick and hot masculine scent.

Her cheeks were flushed, her legs were weak, and she collapsed in Du Weiguo's arms, completely forgetting where she was.

"Yuan Ying, don't be distracted. Here comes an idea. Let me see if your marksmanship has improved!"

Du Weiguo's cold and low voice brought her back to reality.

At this moment, several strange figures that looked neither human nor ghost suddenly jumped out from the white fog.

The bodies of these figures are all human, both male and female, old and young, but their pupils are completely dilated and grayish-white.

His mouth was opened at an incredible angle, with his gums exposed, and an unconscious roar came from his throat.

They no longer look like humans, or in other words, they are no longer human.

"Corpse!" Hu San shouted in a low voice, his face solemn.
