Chapter 128 Frozen Bone Tree (5)

Sitting in the tent, I took a deep breath. My lungs felt a tingling sensation due to the entry of cold air. In order to filter the cold air, we had to cover our mouth and nose with our hands, so that the heat in the breath would transfer the cold air to the center. Make up.

At this moment, Kurban took two shots outside our tent. I opened the tent and saw that his eyebrows were covered with hoarfrost.

With white mist coming out of Kurban's mouth, he blinked and said, "Snow has started to fall, and the temperature tonight may be lower than we expected. I'll come to sleep in your tent just in case." After all, the rest People are all locals and can deal with emergencies, but we are all outsiders. Kurban was worried that we would have an accident, so he decided to come to our tent for a night.

The situation that night was too bad. Our respiratory tract could hardly adapt to this cold, dry, and oxygen-poor environment. We were always in an uncomfortable state and couldn't sleep at all.

The wind outside was stronger than during the day, the winter tents were blown with crackling noises, and the strong frames were bent accordingly, making one worry that it might be blown to collapse.

The night wind outside was like ghosts crying and wolves howling. We could all feel that power in the tent.

The power of nature is too powerful. Just the wind, when it is strong enough, will produce a sense of fear that is hard to ignore. Everyone can't sleep at all, lying or sitting in the tent.

Xiao Jian suddenly said, "I don't know how strong the wind is now."

Kurban said: "This wind is nothing, as long as there is no desert storm." Desert storm is equivalent to a tsunami at sea. Once it comes, let alone our winter tent, even a house can be directly given flipped.

The wind blew for two full hours. After the wind stopped, we felt that it was getting colder and colder. I raised my wrist and looked at my watch. The temperature on it showed that it was minus 28 degrees at the moment.

The temperature was already very low, and there was a lot of snow outside, and the places where the camp lamps could see were covered with a thin layer of snow.

If it continues like this, a thick layer of snow will probably accumulate tomorrow morning.

At this moment, good news came from Xiao Qi. She poked her head out of the tent and shouted to us, "Sister Tian is awake."

Upon hearing this, Jian Weizhong hurriedly braved the snow, trembling out of the tent, and headed towards Xiao Qi and the others' small tent.

I also remembered what happened to Tian Sili today, so I hurried in.

This tent is for two people, it's a little small, and it's a bit crowded for us big men to get in.

Tian Sili had already put on her clothes again. Fortunately, she had spare clothes, otherwise it would have been really bad.

She was full of doubts at the moment, Xiao Qi was talking to her, when we came in, the two of them stopped talking.

"Tian Sili, are you okay?" Jian Weizhong leaned forward worriedly.

Tian Sili shook her head, her voice sounded fine: "Xiao Qi told me everything just now."

Jian Weizhong pushed his glasses, and asked worriedly: "What happened to you at that time? Why did you take off your clothes and run under that tree?"

Tian Sili frowned slightly, with a thoughtful look on her face, as if she was recalling, and said distressedly: "I don't know what's wrong. At that time, I heard someone calling for help, so I followed the sound. The sound was personal at first. The voice, but for some reason, it gradually changed its taste, and it became less like a human voice, more like, more like..." When she said this, she hesitated.

I asked, "Like what?"

She swallowed and spit out a word: "Ghost."

There was a sudden silence in the tent.

My heart skipped a beat, thinking of the dense white bones during the day, I couldn't help but exchange a glance with Brother Wei next to me.

These days, I seem to always hear the word ghost, but are there really ghosts in this world?

In Huangquan Village before, I thought I encountered ghosts several times, but later I found out that it was actually just ghosts in people's hearts.

But what about this time?
Could it be that those white bones were all killed by the frozen bone tree?Does a dead Populus euphratica really have that much power?

Xiao Qi asked: "Ghost? Why do you say that? Do you know how ghosts are called?"

Tian Sili showed distress, and said: "Of course I don't know how the ghost screams, but the voice doesn't sound like a human, and it sounds very scary, which makes people feel creepy. My first feeling is that there is something It was like a ghost screaming. Then for some reason... I couldn’t control myself, and I lost consciousness as I walked forward.”

Xiao Qi said, "You don't remember taking off your clothes?"

Tian Sili blushed, shook her head slightly and said: "I don't remember, I felt very cold, as if sleeping in an ice cave, and then there was a very warm water bag in front of me, I couldn't help but hug it to keep warm, but the more The colder it is to hug. Could it be, could it be that what I hugged was the frozen bone tree?"

Kurban said: "The one you hugged is that tree."

Tian Sili was full of doubts, and said: "This is too strange, how can a tree freeze people to death?" People who are archaeologists often deal with old objects, ancient tombs, and skeletons. Such people do not believe in evil , It was really difficult for her to accept that she was bewitched by a tree.

In fact, I also find it weird, but when I think about the mouse brother in Huangquan Village and the big fish in the Huangquan water, I feel that there are all kinds of wonders in the world, and how can I figure everything out?

So I said: "Don't worry about the problem with that tree, it's good that you're fine anyway, if you hear any strange cries for help again, don't bother with it, stay away from that dry river."

It is said that Cao Cao will arrive when I say Cao Cao. As soon as I finished speaking, suddenly, I heard a strange voice coming from outside the tent.

The wind had died down, so it wasn't the sound of the wind.

It seemed to be someone shouting, but it didn't sound like a human voice.

If you have to describe it, it's like someone is screaming desperately after being strangled.The voice was neither human nor human, nor beast, but to my ears, it was creepy. If I had to describe it, it was really like a ghost screaming.

Tian Sili's expression changed, she gasped, and said, "Here we come! That's the voice, that's the voice!" Her gaze was fixed on the entrance and exit of the tent.

We zipped it up when we came in, so at the moment, we can't look out at all.

But everyone's hearts sank at this moment. A group of people huddled in the tent and looked at each other, feeling their hearts beating rapidly.

Before we could react, the other people in the tent walked out of the tent first without knowing the situation.

I heard people from XJ say something in Uyghur with a dissatisfied tone.

Kurban's complexion changed, and he unzipped the zipper while yelling in Uighur, and then he rushed out of the tent.
