Chapter 13: The Haunted House

After looking for a while, they still didn't find those lost camels, and everyone couldn't help but be a little disheartened, but Liu Feiyu was not in a hurry, and blew a few sharp whistles, and after a while, behind a sand dune, there were a few neighing sounds. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Liu Feiyu smiled slightly, and continued to whistle while running towards it.

We followed her to the back of the dune, and when we saw it, we were immediately amused, and the stupid camels were there, and when they saw us, they were getting up from the ground, and they neighed a few times with excitement. We were so happy that we led the camels back, and when we got to them, it was half past seven in the evening, and it was already completely dark.

Seeing a few of us coming back with camels, Biaozi and Li Yishan danced happily, and sang red songs loudly, not to mention how funny it was. Sankla was fed some water, and in a short time he woke up, but the guy was so strong that he didn't take the shock to heart at all, moved his muscles and bones, and began to live again.

A lot of the food we brought was fruit, and in this weather, a lot of it was rotten, and Liu Feiyu suggested that we eat everything that wasn't rotten, and if we couldn't finish it, we would give it to the camels, otherwise it would be all wasted in another day. After the stomach was full, I was ready to set up the tent, and at this time the temperature in the desert dropped a lot, and the evening breeze blew, which was indescribably cool.

At this time, Chen Zidie said that she wanted to solve her personal problems, but she was afraid of being alone, so she wanted to find someone to accompany her. Liu Feiyu smiled and said that it was such a coincidence, she also had this kind of plan, so she went with Chen Zidie. But it didn't take long for two screams to suddenly come from their direction, and listening to the familiar voice, it was obviously from Liu Feiyu and Chen Zidie.

We expected that something bad had happened to them, and that we could not take care of the work of setting up the tents, so we each said hello and immediately ran over to that side. As soon as they arrived at the sand dune, Liu Feiyu and Chen Zidie rushed out from behind the sand dunes, seeing that they looked flustered and pale, as if they had encountered something very terrifying.

I was slightly surprised in my heart, Chen Zidie, a woman who had never seen the scene, encountered something strange, it was reasonable to be scared like this, why was even Liu Feiyu scared like this? She has been in and out of ancient tombs since she was a child, and her guts are already very fat, so it really makes no sense to be scared like this.

Biaozi was naturally most concerned about Liu Feiyu, and when she saw that she was so frightened, she asked anxiously: "Xiao Yu, what happened, why did you scare you like this?" ”

"We saw ghosts, real ghosts, not far behind the dunes." Liu Feiyu's chest rose and fell so badly, obviously he hadn't broken free from the fright, Chen Zidie was even worse, his whole body was still trembling, and he couldn't say a word.

"Ghosts?" We all feel a little incredible, there are no ancient tombs, no barren mountains and mountains, how can there be ghosts in a good place? Biaozi was also confused by the second monk, and he said with some suspicion: "There are ghosts? Are you sure you read that right? ”

It's okay for us people to have a skeptical attitude, but even the mark doesn't believe what he says, Liu Feiyu's mood can be imagined, I saw her face disappointed, and said angrily: "You don't believe what I say?" Hmph, if you don't believe it, it's okay if I didn't say it. ”

Wu Jian suddenly said coldly: "The yin qi in that direction is very heavy, maybe what they said is right, maybe there are really unclean things there, rather than discussing here to no avail, it is better to go over and find out." After Wu Jian finished speaking, he didn't care what everyone thought, and walked straight towards the back of the sand dune.

Naturally, we were not to be left behind, and with a little curiosity, we also followed. When I got to the back of the sand dune, I looked at the place Liu Feiyu said, and I saw that a hundred meters away, there were several green lights dancing in the air, and there was no rhythm at all.

I immediately thought of phosphorus fire, but when I looked closely, I realized that something was wrong, if it was phosphorus fire, even if it could take off in the air, it would not be able to change the shape of the fire at will. And the green light clusters in front of me sometimes expand, sometimes shrink, and change into various forms, obviously with many differences from phosphorus fire, but I don't know what it is, is it really a ghost?

None of the others spoke, but from their surprised expressions, they didn't seem to know what those strange clusters of light were. Chen Zidie seemed to be very scared, even though so many people were present, she was still so frightened that her face turned pale, and she involuntarily shrank behind Sankra, using him as an umbrella.

Biaozi glanced at Sankra with a smile, his eyes revealed a strange color, and after a while, he turned back to us and said: "It's just some yin fire, there's nothing to be afraid of, let's go over and take a look, maybe there will be unexpected gains." ”

Biaozi said this very strangely, it seemed that he knew something, but he intended to sell Guanzi, so we naturally didn't want to ask too much, so we followed him and slowly approached those ghost fires. Those ghost fires are the same as the glow emitted by fireflies, but the green ones are a little abnormal, as if they can drip water, and I don't know how they were formed.

When we got there, the green fires suddenly stopped, as if they had thoughts, and we were a little surprised, and the fires suddenly picked up speed and floated forward. The standard yelled: "Catch up!" Then we subconsciously sped up our speed and chased after the ghost fires in the back.

However, what we didn't expect was that those ghost fires floated for a while, and they suddenly disappeared into the darkness ahead. When we got there, we found a row of houses in front of us, with walls made of pure loess, and the roofs were made of wood, but they were broken in many places.

It may have been abandoned for a long time, and everywhere there were signs of dilapidation, and there was sand and broken wooden planks falling to the ground, except for the ghostly fires. Biaozi smiled: "They must have brought us here for a reason, let's just live here today." ”

Tan Jia saw that the mark was hiding something from everyone, so she couldn't help it, so she asked, "What are those ghost fires, why did you bring us here, can you give us an explanation?" ”

The mark didn't seem to be going to be sold anymore, and told us with a smile that those ghost fires were not the common phosphorus fires, but the yin fires produced in the corpses after people died. To put it bluntly, it is the ghost of the human being, which means that many people have died here, and the resentment is not dissipated, so those ghost fires will be produced. Biaozi guessed that there must be a reason why these ghost fires brought us here, and we searched in the house and might find something valuable.

Tan Jia was skeptical, but she still nodded and agreed, but she seemed to be very afraid of those ghost fires, so she returned with Liu Dapeng and Professor Zhang, intending to bring the camel here. Liu Feiyu was most afraid of this invisible thing, and Chen Zidie didn't dare to enter the house, but his curiosity was heavy, and he stretched his neck to look in from time to time.

The room was empty, about fifty square meters, and there were two slightly smaller rooms on the left, presumably the original owner's house, but there was nothing in it. After looking around, there was still no harvest, and a few of us were a little skeptical about the judgment ability of the standard.

Returning to the living room in the middle, Biaozi pondered for a moment and said, "It doesn't make sense, that ghost fire brought us here, there must be something to tell us, why did we look around, and there is not even a trace of clues?" It's so weird. ”

At this time, Tan Jia and the others had already brought the camel over, and when they saw that we were worried, they said: "If you can't find a clue, forget it, it's better to have more than one thing, do you still want to make trouble for yourself?" After looking at the environment in the house, he seemed to be satisfied with it and smiled at us: "It's not bad here, there is wood that can be used to make a fire, and if you live here at night, you don't have to be afraid of the cold." ”

After the camels were settled, we spread our sleeping bags on the left and right sides of the room, and a few of us gathered the rotten wood into a piece, lit a fire, and began to prepare for bed. The temperature difference between day and night in the desert is very great, more than 40 degrees during the day, only about 10 degrees at night, it is simply two days of ice and fire, and people who do not adapt well are simply suffering.

Liu Feiyu told us that this year is not bad, at this time in previous years, there were more than 50 degrees or even more than 60 degrees during the day, but this year it is only 48 degrees, which is already God's special kindness.

After chatting for a while, Liu Feiyu seemed to see what he was afraid of, and suddenly exclaimed: "Don't sleep, look at that fire, has the color become different?" ”

A few of us heard her voice, almost reflexively sat up from the sleeping bag, and looked closely, not to mention, although the fire in front of us was burning vigorously, and there was a "crackling" sound, but the color of the flame changed, and in the red flame, there seemed to be a green fire shining, that green color, and the color of the ghost fire was almost exactly the same.

Sankra saw that Chen Zidie was trembling with fright, and couldn't help but be angry, and said to us: "It seems that there are really unclean things making trouble, you guys get out of the way and see how I clean it up." After he finished speaking, he took off the Buddhist beads around his neck and pinched them in the palm of his hand, and prepared to sit down and chant.

The mark seemed to think of something all of a sudden, and immediately stopped Sankla, he said happily: "Don't mess around, hehe, it's really crooked, we searched around the house, but we didn't find any clues, it turned out that what we were looking for was not on the surface of the house, or buried in the ground." ”

turned back to Li Yishan and said, "Bring a steel shovel, and a few other people will remove the pile of firewood, I want to take a good look, what is buried in the ground?" ”

As soon as I looked at the excited appearance of the standard, I suddenly thought of something, and secretly said in my heart, this guy has always been unprofitable and can't afford to be early, and today he actually changed his temperament, and he wants to be the first to rush to work, there must be something greasy in this. I don't know this person best, we must have been deceived by him before, those green light clusters are not ghost fire at all, maybe it has something to do with treasures and antiques.

The pile of firewood was quickly left by Sankla and Li Yishan, revealing the blackened sand, and the marker rolled up his sleeves, picked up the steel shovel, and began to clean up the yellow sand. He had been robbing tombs for some time, and he picked up a shovel, which was handy, and he shoveled sand, which was faster, and he cleared out a vacant lot in three or two clicks.

About half an hour later, when the shovel went in more than a meter, the shovel suddenly made a "bell" sound, and the word Mars came out along the tip of the shovel. The mark "oops", it is estimated that the attack is too heavy, and the people and shovels are pushed several meters away by the force of the shock, and they almost fall to the ground.

Biaozi's arm was probably numb from the shock, trembling slightly, and he scolded: "Damn, what is so hard, is it a stone?" This is strange, where do the stones come from in the sand? He wondered, and said as he walked toward the bunker. Our curiosity was also aroused and followed.

Without saying a word, Biaozi jumped off the sand pit, touched the sand with both hands, seemed to have found something, looked happy, and immediately cleaned up the sand on the side. We squatted on the edge of the sand pit and looked down, and saw a shiny black stone peeking out of the sand, and when the mark cleaned all the sand, we were surprised to find that the black stone was actually a stone tablet about one meter and a half in length and width.

The stele was as smooth as a mirror, leaving neither words nor patterns or anything like that, it looked weird, and the mark was a little puzzled, so he turned back to us and said: "A stele suddenly appeared here, there must be something weird, come and help two people, there may be some fame under this stele." ”

We all looked suspicious, but it was a little strange to dig up a stone tablet in a good way, and if we didn't look at what was down there, we wouldn't die if we didn't say anything. I called Li Yishan, and the two of them turned over and stood in front of the mark.

We brought a crowbar with us, and the three of us stuck one end of the crowbar under the stone monument, stood up, put the other end of the crowbar on our shoulders, shouted a slogan, and carried it up in unison. The stele weighed at least 1,000 catties, and although there was a crowbar in hand, it was still very difficult to carry, but it was finally pried up.

With the continuous afterburner of the three of us, the heavy stone tablet was finally overturned by us, but before we could catch our breath, I suddenly felt the soles of my feet slip, and then the whole person began to sink, and before anyone could react, the body lost its center of gravity and fell down violently, and all I heard in my ears was the exclamations of Tan Jia and others.

At that moment, my mind was running rapidly, and my thoughts were very clear, and I understood that there was a trap under the stone tablet, and the three of us fell into it carelessly. Luckily, the trap wasn't too high, and in an instant we were at the bottom, and thankfully, there were no knives or anything like that, just a very strong smell in it.

The three of us almost fell into a ball, complaining to each other and standing up, just heard Tan Jia ask worriedly, "How are you doing, are you injured?" Then the speed of light from several flashlights shone down, and we couldn't even open our eyes.

"We're fine, there's something strange down there, you throw two flashlights down." Biaozi tapped the ground with his hand, got up and said to us, "It's strange, it looks like there are stones in here." ”

After a while, someone on top of it put down a flashlight with a rope, and when we looked up, we found that the entrance of the cave was at most three meters below us, no wonder we fell back and forth. Li Yishan and I took a flashlight, looked at it through the beam, and found that there was a road behind us, about 20 meters or so, and it came to an end.

The sign is correct, but not only is the ground paved with stones, but the top, bottom, left and right sides of this corridor are made of large stones, and the gaps are so well handled that even knives can't be inserted. I asked with some curiosity: "What is this for, how does it feel so similar to the corridor in the ancient tomb, is this also the place where the coffin is placed?" ”

The sign told us not to talk nonsense, and to go over and see what was going on. The three of us didn't know what this place was, so when we went over, we were very cautious, and we felt a little like we were all soldiers. However, when I got to the end of the road, I found that it was actually a stone room, not much bigger than a living room, and there was a large wooden box in the center of the house, and I don't know what was inside.

As soon as I entered the stone chamber, the stench I had smelled before was even stronger, and it seemed to be coming from the direction to my left. I turned my head and looked at it curiously, but after a single glance, I couldn't take my eyes off it anymore, and I felt a cold air rushing straight to my head, and I almost couldn't even grasp the flashlight.

I never imagined that in the corner to the left of the stone room, there was a strange row of dried corpses, their backs against the wall, their empty eyes looking in our direction, and even worse, their big mouths were all open, their jaws seemed to be torn open, and their jaws were about to fall to their bellies.

Biaozi and Li Yishan saw that I had not moved here for a long time, and thought that something was wrong, but when they saw my expression, they quickly reacted, and immediately followed my gaze. But the two of them were well-informed people in the end, and they just gasped and recovered.

The sign was very bold, took the flashlight in my hand, and slowly leaned over. When he arrived in front of the dried corpses, he crouched down to take a closer look, as if he had found something, and let out a "Huh? "A bang. I finally calmed down at this time, Li Yishan nodded to me, and walked towards the mark with me.

When I got to the mark, I saw that there was a small red box in his hand, with some carvings on it, very delicate, such a beautiful small wooden box, at a glance, I knew that it was not a modern thing, and the mark was like a treasure, and immediately laughed and said: "Sure enough, there is a treasure hidden here, haha, now we sent it."
