The seventy-first watch is the night of the soul
The next day, just after dawn, the expedition departed, and this time they did not go far, but dug in the nearby snow, as if searching for some treasure.
Ti Ruixue's body is also better, the high fever is gradually subsided, and she wakes up and drinks some soup, but she is still very weak.
Bai Kefei told her to rest well and not act with her for the time being, and then she left the tent and found Captain Rosbell.
"What are you doing now, old man?" she asked.
"We're digging deep into the snow. Rosbell replied.
"Why do you want to do such a boring thing?"
"For scientific research, there are a lot of professors of history and biology who want to know the origins of our continent, so they have to go off the beaten track to find the original ruins. ”
"It's boring. Bai Kefei really can't understand why these people are doing such useless things when they are full, not to mention that they are still so dangerous, can they not have the energy to do some positive good deeds to the society? Think about the poor mine slaves in the mines, and the people at the bottom of the society, they even have a problem with eating.
"Haha, curiosity is also a need. Rosbell laughed, "Everyone has something to do in life, but only if they have a full stomach, of course." ”
"Where are the slaves going, when can they arrive?" Bai Kefei asked.
"Oh, it's not far away. Rosbell pointed in one direction, "Just go over that hill." ”
Bai Kefei looked at it and said, "Then you can stay here and slowly conduct scientific research, and I'll go over first." ”
"You...... You're going alone?" Rosebell startled.
"yes, what's wrong?"
"Are you ready to kill yourself?"
"You bold people, how do you speak?" Bai Kefei scolded, "At the beginning, he asked me to write a suicide note, and now he asked me to commit suicide, what is my intention? If you don't want to do it, return all the five million I gave you!"
When Rosebell heard this, he hurriedly covered his pocket, and sneered: "Lord Earl is angry, the little one doesn't mean that, what I want to say is that you are very dangerous alone, it is better to wait, we will send you over together." ”
"Forget it, you guys should keep digging here, I'll be fine. "She wanted Ti Ruixue to rest well and not to be tired.
"If you have to go, don't choose today. Rosbell reminded.
"Why is that?" Bai Kefei wondered.
"Because today is the day before Chinese New Year's Eve. Rosbell replied.
"So what?" she was still puzzled.
"Hey, don't you even know that?" Rosbell's gaze sharpened.
Bai Kefei shouted in his heart that it was not good, it seemed that he had ignored some common sense issues.
At this time, Tyrese in his mind reminded: "The traditional festival of this continent, on the day before Chinese New Year's Eve, there will be a passage connecting the two worlds of yin and yang, and ghosts can come to the world, this is the 'Night of Returning to the Soul'!"
"Soul Night, right?" Bai Kefei said hurriedly, "I almost forgot." ”
Rosebell's expression suddenly relaxed, "That's right, the people in that village are said to have been killed to the ground, and past adventure teams often hear terrifying ghost cries from there, today is the night of the soul, and it is estimated that it will be dark when you walk over, so it is very dangerous." ”
"I'm not afraid of ghosts. "How could Bai Kefei be afraid? Now there is a ghost living in his body.
Rosbell was amazed, how could a teenage girl have such courage and courage? Unscientific, so unscientific!
"Take care of my friend. Bai Kefei said, "I don't want to come back and see any accidents with her." Then she was ready to go.
"Wait a minute!" another voice called to her.
Bai Kefei looked back and saw Cai Saixi walking towards her.
"Are you going to persuade me too?" She asked.
"No, I'm here to walk with you. He replied, "I'm taking this opportunity to investigate, so let's form a team." ”
"Okay!" Bai Kefei seemed to be interested, this companion still felt quite reliable.
On the way, Bai Kefei asked, "Uncle, do you believe that there are ghosts in this world?"
"Nope. "As a monk, I am very responsible for telling you that ghosts are all imaginary things, including the plague spread by the spirits of the dead, and people have associated misfortune with ghosts since ancient times, but this is not the case at all, so the church sent me to carefully verify it." ”
"I didn't think you were quite materialistic. Bai Kefei was slightly surprised.
"What does materialism mean?" said Zesesi, puzzled.
"It's just ......" Bai Kefei found that he couldn't answer, "Anyway, it's quite realistic." ”
"That's a must. "As a believer in truth, I will only make the facts more confusing, but you must understand one thing," he said with a focused expression, "and the living are the most terrible." ”
............
Not far from the expedition camp, two sneaky figures were hiding in the pine forest and were watching this side, they were the noble knights who had been tracking all the way.
79 is holding a telescope and is keeping a close eye on the camp.
"The white-haired witch seems to have left the group. He exclaimed, "Now is your chance!"
"Great!" exclaimed 88, "then let's get rid of her right now!" After tracking for so many days, the target was obviously close at hand but he couldn't do it, which had already suffocated him.
"No!" said Number 79, "even if she is alone, we can't do anything about her." ”
"What then?" Eighty-Eight was anxious, "Are you just watching a great opportunity miss?"
"When I say chance, I mean saving people!" No. 79 explained, "Now that the white-haired witch is next to a man, then No. 62 should be in the camp, as long as we rescue her, then the three of us can fight the white-haired witch!"
"The captain is really smart!" No. 88 felt sincere admiration, "Then let's do it quickly." ”
"Don't worry, wait until it gets dark!"
............
Bai Kefei and Cai Saixi had been walking for more than an hour, and they thought that they would be able to climb over the snow hills soon, but they didn't feel that the distance was getting closer at all, and the camp on the contrary had long been gone.
"How far is it?" Although the clothes were thickened, Bai Kefei's movement was even slower.
"I think it's going to take about two hours. Cai Saisi replied.
"Carry me again. She said coquettishly, "The slave family really can't walk......
"I can't help it. He shook his head helplessly, "But what you begged me to carry is not something I can't resist the temptation of little Lori!
"I know, the slave family will definitely not ruin your reputation. She was snickering in her heart, this guy looked expectant, what a loveless dick.
She was about to jump onto Chase Sesi's broad shoulders, but then the mutant was born!
I only heard an overwhelming ghost howl from far and near, which made the already very windy and sunny climate become irritable and restless.
"What's the sound?" Bai Kefei felt extremely dangerous, and even her guts felt creepy, "Uncle, didn't you say that there are no ghosts in the world?
"This is much more terrifying than a ghost!" Chase scrambled to pounce on her and pressed her back.
"Hey, hey!" Bai Kefei was terrified, "What do you want to do?" she thought he couldn't help but ask the overlord to take the bow.
"Don't speak, keep your head down!" Cai Saixi not only did not listen to the persuasion, but pressed it even tighter.
"You're ...... actually ...... "Bai Kefei is really angry, what a pervert who has to inch inch!"
Damn, the tiger is not powerful, do you really think I am a bully?
She mustered up her strength and forcibly lifted Cai Saixi's weight of more than 200 catties.
"What?" He never expected that this seemingly weak and delicate little girl would have such divine power!
It was too late to say anything now, and after Cai Cesi scolded "stupid!", a violent snowstorm enveloped them.
Before Bai Kefei could react, the whole person flew up, she suddenly lost her sense of sight and hearing, and just as she wanted to shout, countless ice chips and snow filled her mouth, and she couldn't even breathe.
Just as she was in despair, a golden energy shield enveloped her......
............
The blizzard in the north came and went as fast as it came, and after only five minutes, the sky was quiet again.
Half of the camp had been buried, and everyone had taken refuge in the windbreak tunnels that had just been dug up, and they were all experts in dealing with the bad weather.
Then the group began to shovel the snow in the camp, which contained the necessities of life, but could not be discarded casually.
At this time, the regimental commander Rosbell remembered a very important thing, he actually left the sick Tirexue in the tent!
The blizzard came so suddenly just now, and everyone hid in such a hurry that they forgot that there was an injury number, and if she had three long and two short, it would be terrible for the countess to be guilty!
Thinking of this, Rosebell began to dig wildly, fortunately it didn't take long, and now there must be salvation!
Thankfully, Ti Ruixue was fine, her tent was sturdy, not crushed by the snow, and she slept soundly in it.
Rosebell was relieved, and he decided to continue to strengthen her tent and make it a fortress of steel!
"Oh, it's here. ”
Suddenly, a figure silently appeared behind him, and a tingling sensation hit him.
"Who is it?" Rosebell turned sharply to see a man in a gray cloak standing eerily there.
