Definition
蔽 is a bound form (不成词语素) that cannot stand alone as a word. It appears in compound words meaning 'to cover', 'to shelter', or 'to conceal', such as 隐蔽 (yǐnbì, hidden/concealed), 遮蔽 (zhēbì, to block/cover), and 蒙蔽 (méngbì, to deceive/ hoodwink). You'll almost always encounter it as the second character in a two-character verb or adjective.
