At this time, I was already tired like a pile of mud, so I laid out the moisture-proof mat early and got into my sleeping bag.

This kung fu is to gelding me with a knife, and I don't have the strength to resist.

Therefore, after listening to what Professor Chen said, I didn't even have the strength to answer, so I could only look at him and grin stiffly.

Jasmine, who met me for the first time, was obviously surprised by my outstanding physical fitness, she was lying next to Bai Yi who was lying with her eyes closed and pretending to sleep, her face kept looking in my direction, and her eyes were full of curiosity that could not be concealed.

It is indeed a heartfelt thing to be stared at and appreciated by beautiful women, but it also has to be divided into occasions.

At this moment, even if the jasmine girl stripped naked and threw a wink at me, I decided that I would not have the slightest other thought.

At this time, I just want to get a good night's sleep, so that my overused physical energy can be replenished as soon as possible.

I never thought that sleeping on a cold moisture-proof mat at an altitude of more than 6,000 meters would be such a happy thing.

With the snoring sound of Qu Fattou and Chen Hudan, my eyelids became heavier and heavier, and the moment I closed my eyes, the last picture I saw was Jasmine staring at me with beautiful eyes like spring water

"Giggles" A poignant ghost-like laugh suddenly came to my ears.

The chilling horror of laughter made my eyes open suddenly.

Although I was still sore and my legs and feet were numb, I still had a lot of strength on my waist and sat up all of a sudden.

However, when I sat up, I didn't see the female ghost who let out a terrible laugh, but met the bloodshot eyes that Sima peeked out of his sleeping bag.

"it, it's a dream," I muttered as I looked at Sima who was on the night watch.

With that, I'm ready to get back into my sleeping bag for a good night's sleep.

But at this time, Sima opened his mouth first.

"Lao Tzu has been staring at me for several hours, do you also sympathize with it a little."

Sima's voice was very cold when he spoke to me, not that he had any opinions about me, but it was probably because Ya Rang was frozen like this.

As soon as Sima finished speaking, I felt very embarrassed.

Without saying much, I waved my hand at Sima and motioned for him to hurry up and rest, and I would keep vigil.

Sima didn't say anything more after seeing my gesture, he nodded at me, yawned, and slipped into his sleeping bag.

After a while, he heard a heavy snoring coming from inside Sima's sleeping bag.

I lay flat again, staring at the starry night sky with my eyes wide open.

Perched on a 6,000-metre-high mountain, the night finally reveals its most enchanting side.

Before, I never thought I would be able to see the stars so clearly at night.

Each of the stars looked so bright, and so close to me, it looked like it was within reach.

Although, at this time, there was only a thin layer of moisture-proof mat between me and the icy mountain.

But the strange beauty of the night made me almost forget the cold air that kept rising up under me.

After each breath, the cold air ran down my nostrils into my lungs, which had been smoked by nicotine for ten years, and a refreshing feeling of comfort could not help but relieve my tiredness.

And.

I had the illusion that my soul was being purified.

This may be the magic of the snow-capped mountains.

I simply sat up again, tightened my winter suit, and leaned against the ice-covered boulder behind me, looking around.

Although there are snoring sounds in my ears from time to time, there are also wind sounds from far and near.

However, at night, the high cold made me feel an indescribable tranquility on the top of this peak.

Compared to the daytime, the wind at night on Lhotse is much stronger.

It's just that the place where we camped was right between two boulders and the mountain, which basically blocked the cold wind.

I leaned against the boulder and couldn't help but click.

In fact, since I entered the mountains, I have rarely smoked.

Especially as the altitude gets higher and higher, the physical sense of nicotine dependence becomes less and less.

It's just that at this time, I looked around boredly, listening to the obvious rhythm of the snoring of the fat head, in order not to let myself sleep to death with this rhythm, I couldn't help but want to come to a pick-me-up.

After fumbling in the pocket of my winter jacket for a long time, I finally pulled out the half box of cigarettes with great difficulty.

Of course, I'm not stupid enough to actually light a cigarette in this environment.

During the previous month's mountaineering training, I heard Bai Yi tell a real thing.

Several Shandong tourists smoked half a pack of cigarettes in Lhasa, and all of them went into shock.

After being sent to the hospital for rescue, it was found that two people had emphysema, and the other person died after rescue failed.

Therefore, smoking on this plateau is simply gambling with your own life.

I just took out a cigarette, took one out and sniffed it under my nose, then wrung out a small amount of tobacco and stuffed it into my mouth and chewed it slowly.

However, after a few bites of spicy tobacco, I suddenly stopped.

At that moment, I seemed to hear a woman's voice.

I couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, then frowned, and listened carefully with my ears pricked up.

However, after listening to it for a long time, except for the snoring sound of the fat head of the canal, it was the sound of the wind outside the boulder.

I couldn't help but smile wryly and shake my head.

I thought to myself: Is it that the closer I get to her, the more obvious this illusion becomes

As I thought about it, I opened my mouth to spit out the shredded tobacco that I was chewing on.

However, when I opened my mouth, I was able to continue the next action for a long time.

This time, I heard it clearly, and it was indeed a woman's voice that came into my ears.

And.

I could hear the woman's voice very clearly, and it was three words.

"Help Me"

I was shocked by this woman's voice, and I couldn't come back to my senses for a long time, and subconsciously I connected this woman's voice with the Xi Jing we were looking for.

But after careful distinction, I found that this female voice was completely different from the voice of Xi Jing that I was familiar with.

"Someone killed?" That was my subsequent reaction.

As soon as the thought came to mind, I immediately got out of my sleeping bag.

I stood up and carefully discerned for a long time, making sure that the woman's voice was coming from the direction of due north of us.

And that direction is the direction of the giant gate we are going to look for next
