Chapter 422: Staying in the Storm
As the night fell, the wind became stronger, and although there were coats and cotton clothes, the temperature difference between day and night was still very large, and the temperature made them feel very uncomfortable, and every time the wind blew it cut into their faces like a knife, making everyone breathless.
The snow on the ground was up to the calves, and every step was difficult, but fortunately the legs were tied, so not much snow got into the shoe holes. Facing the bitter cold wind and stepping on the thick snow, I walked in this place where the sun set. When the white gas produced by the crowd breathed met the eyebrows, the eyebrows were dyed white, and the fur on the beard and the edge of the dogskin hat also turned white, which can intuitively let everyone see how low the outdoor temperature is now.
Cui Fatzi looked at Zhou Yuefeng, who was walking in the front, and suddenly a sense of strangeness arose, and he didn't know why, since they traveled together this time, Cui Fatzi felt that Zhou Yuefeng was a little different from before, and at this time, it looked even more strange from the back, but he couldn't say what was wrong.
Zhou Yuefeng wanted to tell his brothers to persevere, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he was poured a mouthful of wind and snow, not to mention that he couldn't make a sound, even if he could make a sound, in such a big cold wind, the brothers couldn't hear it, so he simply closed his mouth. Cui Fatzi originally wanted to tell Dongzi that he found Zhou Yuefeng a little strange, but such an environment made it difficult for him to speak, and it was not easy to protect himself.
And at this time, everyone suddenly found that there were some trance lights at the foot of the mountain, seeing such a light, everyone's hearts rekindled hope, although these few dotted lights did not have much effect, but after all, it was a kind of hope, and it was this dotted light that made their hearts a little warmer.
Zhou Yuefeng was walking in front and didn't pay attention to what was happening behind, but at this time, one of the five little brothers suddenly fainted, Dongzi saw this little brother first, but he knew that if he shouted loudly now, there was no way to attract the attention of Zhou Yuefeng in front. Thinking of this, he immediately became anxious and threw one of the flares in his equipment.
Seeing the flare, Zhou Yuefeng knew that something must have happened behind him, so he immediately stopped, and then when he turned around, he saw Dongzi waving at him, he hurriedly ran over in three steps and two steps, and saw that the little brother had fallen into the snow shell deep in the calf.
Dongzi hurriedly took out another coat from the equipment, wrapped it tightly for the little brother, and then said: "Brother Feng, this coat was originally intended to be used in an emergency when climbing the snowy mountain, but if you put it on now, it will be difficult to resist the colder weather in the future." The other two junior brothers immediately said: "Young Master Feng, we are all brothers together, he can be carried by the four of us in turn." ”
Zhou Yuefeng looked at the situation of the little brother and found that he was okay, and he was not seriously injured, but he fainted due to excessive physical exertion, and because he was discovered by Dongzi in time, he did not suffer from frostbite. But he looked at the snow that could not reach his feet and necks and said: "It's not good to carry it, in such a deep snow shell, two people will definitely not be able to walk together, it is better for everyone to take turns to carry it." ”
After saying that, he continued to walk forward, Cui Fatzi felt even more strange when he saw it, even if Zhou Yuefeng didn't care about his own affairs, he had to think about his brothers first, if he encountered such a thing, he would definitely bear the brunt of the little brother first, and he would not throw him there after speaking.
The four little brothers looked at each other, consciously arranged the order, and then took turns carrying the little brother, and after briefly dealing with the little brother's injury, everyone started their journey again. In addition to the cold wind and thick snow that accompanied them at night, there was also the cold moon hidden in the clouds, which appeared and disappeared from time to time.
The cold colors of all colors, coupled with the already cold weather, everyone felt the chill conveyed from the bottom of their hearts. Zhou Yuefeng felt that his legs were no longer sensational from the calf downwards, and the only thing he insisted on now was to continue to move forward mechanically and continue to move forward.
They walked all night, and when it was about to dawn, they finally saw the mysterious village, and when it was dark, the lights were turned off in every house, and the things that drew them on were gone, but in its place were the real village. Before entering the village, Zhou Yuefeng felt that something was not quite right in this village, because every family was closed and lifeless.
Cui Fatzi asked: "Brother Feng, why is this village so lifeless, is it possible that there are no living people in this village?" Dongzi put up his glasses and said, "Don't talk nonsense, if there are no living people, why are the lights on at night?" It must be that the villagers haven't gotten up yet, or have already gone out to work. ”
Of course, when Dongzi said this, he himself was a little weak-hearted, and he didn't really say it, just as a point, as for how to decide, it was up to Zhou Yuefeng to make a decision. Zhou Yuefeng looked at the village and said: "Go in, no matter what, we have to go first to rest and recuperate, now someone is sick, if you go up the snow mountain like this, before you can climb to the top, it is estimated that the whole army will be wiped out." ”
When everyone heard this, they could only enter the village, they found a family that looked relatively wealthy, Dongzi went to knock on the door first, but there was no movement inside, Dongzi knocked again, and the result was still the same. Cui Fatzi couldn't wait at this time, he ran over and pulled Dongzi away and said, "Knock on the door and chirp, can you open it if you knock like this?" With that, he knocked the door, but there was still no movement.
And at this time, the other younger brothers were not idle, everyone was looking for flaws, but after looking around the village, everyone was closed, no matter how they knocked, they didn't open the door, of course, it was not difficult for Zhou Yuefeng, but he thought that it was illegal to break into private houses, so he didn't move. At this time, the situation forced him to be more violent, Zhou Yuefeng saw that the brothers were looking for the entrance to no avail, and he actually kicked open the tightly closed door with one kick.
Then the scene in front of them shocked everyone, it turned out that there were really no people living in this house, but a large coffin in the middle, this big coffin was pitch black, and it could be seen that it was not an ordinary coffin, but a coffin with a coffin and a coffin.
Zhou Yuefeng looked at the situation here, a little puzzled, Cui Fatzi asked: "Brother Feng, this is not right, this village doesn't look like it has a high status, why is the coffin in this house so high?" This is obviously not a thing of this village! The strange thing is that every time he encounters a special situation, Zhou Yuefeng can always say why, but this time it was surprisingly not, he did not explain it to everyone, but walked around the house a few times, and then took his brothers out.
Dongzi asked, "Brother Feng, are we going to retreat?" But our task has not been completed, if we leave now, I am afraid it will be a pity, but if we want to continue to move forward, our brothers really can't stand it, the best way is to rest in this village, maybe only this one family has been caught up by us like this, and the other families are still normal. ”
Zhou Yuefeng thought for a while and said, "Okay, let's go to other people's homes and have a look." Cui Fatzi has been observing Zhou Yuefeng's actions from the side, and found that he is very different from before, if he was placed in the past, he would never be at a loss at a critical moment, sometimes although he doesn't know what to do, but at least it won't be like now, he has completely lost his direction and discernment, and can only rely on conjecture and discuss things with his brothers, which is not his style at all.
But at this time, it's not good to ask why, since you are here, you can only follow them to complete the task as much as possible. Then a group of seven people, carrying a sick number, opened almost all the rooms here, without exception, there was only a coffin in the center of the room.
This thing is nothing to see during the day, after all, they are all dealing with dead people, this thing is nothing, but at night it is very terrifying, and people can't help but see the hairs on their backs stand up. And as the night slowly fell, they had to spend the night in this village, because the snow-capped mountains at night were too terrible, and there were at least houses here, traces of human life, even if there was a coffin in the house?
Thinking of this, Zhou Yuefeng ordered the four little brothers to carry the fainted little brother over, and then Zhou Yuefeng gave him an examination, and entered some internal force into his body, with internal force, people can save physical strength, and can also raise people's body temperature, now for him, one is internal force, the other is human blood, only these two conditions can make his body warm, resist the cold, and grow up rapidly.
Sure enough, after some tossing by Zhou Yuefeng, the little brother finally woke up, and his first words were: "Young Master Feng, I'm sorry, I didn't listen to you, and now it's such a consequence." Zhou Yuefeng didn't care, and helping him up would be regarded as benevolence and righteousness.
Seeing him wake up, Zhou Yuefeng's heart relaxed a lot, and the breath that had been holding in his chest could be regarded as a real relaxation. Zhou Yuefeng said: "The wind and snow outside tonight are too big, I originally wanted to find a guide in the village, but I didn't expect to say that it was a guide, it was difficult to find a person in this village, in fact, it didn't make much sense for us to stay here, but there was no way, the wind and snow didn't stop, we had no way to leave." ”
And at this time, all of a sudden, a coffin in the room where they were located moved with a bang, which scared everyone's hearts as words, although they have seen a lot of big zongzi, of course, such a big zongzi has never been provoked, and it will go to the underworld to make trouble This coffin knows how to play is even more superstitious. In fact, there are none of these, and people die like lights going out.
Seeing the big coffin move, Zhou Yuefeng immediately became curious about it, he wanted to know what was inside, so he said to Cui Fatzi: "Old Cui, are you sure about opening this coffin?" Lao Cui nodded: "Don't worry, I have already witnessed so many revenges, and it can be regarded as their brothers themselves are not sure." ”
And at this time, the coffin actually made a loud sound, if it was placed in normal times, Zhou Yuefeng would have been anxious, but this time it was not dirty. He picked up the frog sword and slowly pressed it against the coffin, listening to the movements, and told himself that he had agreed to dig the hole.
