Volume 1 Chapter 051 Cold Sleep
I looked over and it was pitch black all around. I couldn't see anything clearly. I looked at the time and estimated that it was already early in the morning. I didn't expect that this woman was still awake. I don't know if she hadn't slept yet, or if she was awakened by the noise I made just now.
I was so cold that I kept jumping up and down, shivering and saying, "It's so cold, it's so cold in this room!"
Qingzi's voice came from the darkness: "Why are you cold? This room is like this. Go to bed! "
Damn it, I don't believe this is the case in this room! In the middle of summer, I normally can't even turn on the fan, but this room is as cold as a big freezer. It would be strange if there is no problem!
I was so cold that I wanted to go to the living room to find a blanket to wrap myself up, but as soon as I got to the door, I heard Qingzi's woman's voice: "What are you doing? Go to sleep! If you move again, I'll throw you into the well!"
I really couldn't afford to offend this lady, so I had to retract my feet. I don't know how this woman's ears are long, she can hear so clearly even through a door.
The room was freezing cold, and it wasn't the normal kind of cold, it was the kind of cold that could freeze you to the bone. I couldn't stand the cold any more, so I tiptoed around the room. After a few steps, I felt something strange.
The room was not big, only less than ten square meters. Walking through it was like walking in water, with a feeling of surging waves, making people a little shaky. I waved my hands in front of me, but didn't touch anything, but as soon as I started moving, that feeling appeared clearly.
"What are you doing again?" Qingzi's impatient voice came from the other side.
This woman's ears are sharper than a cat's! I shivered and said, "There's something strange in this house. It's not only very cold, but there seems to be something inside!"
"What's so weird about this? This is how this room is. Go to bed quickly!"
I had no choice but to lie back down, but the more I lay there the colder I felt. I couldn't stand it any longer, so I sat up cross-legged against the wall and practiced breathing exercises for a few times as my uncle taught me. But I still couldn't resist the chill. I felt very cold. Just as I was about to get up again, I suddenly saw a figure flash past me.
I was startled and my hair stood on end. I looked again and vaguely saw two pale figures standing there in the darkness. They had long black hair and their faces were unclear. Judging from their height and body shape, they should be two little girls, but they were not wearing a single thing. Their pale bodies made me dizzy.
My heart skipped a beat. The figures of these two people looked familiar. They looked like those two damn girls Lin Wenjing and Liu Nan!
My scalp was numb and my heart was hanging in the air. But after staring at them for a while, I felt something was wrong. I got up, walked forward nervously, stretched out my hand to grab the two people, and sure enough, the two figures disappeared in an instant. These were two phantoms!
I have never seen such a strange phenomenon in my life. I stood there for a while, and then I saw a shadow flashing, and then I saw the shadows of two little girls appeared not far behind me, with their hair loose, motionless.
I felt a little chilled when I saw this, so I went over to turn on the light. The room was bright, and the two shadows disappeared. I turned off the light again, and after a while, I could see two figures standing there again.
At this time, my curiosity overcame my fear, so I walked in again and reached out to touch the two people's heads. The moment I touched them, the figures suddenly shattered. I couldn't help but be very surprised. Didn't they say that these two girls were planted in my body? How could they suddenly appear here?
Not long after, the two people's shadows appeared again. I saw them standing there without any unusual behavior, so I plucked up the courage to move closer to take a closer look at the two of them.
"If you keep looking like that, be careful or your eyeballs will be gouged out!" Just as I was looking intently, Qingzi's voice came over again with a chill.
My face felt hot. Isn't it normal to like looking at pretty girls? But I didn't dare to continue looking and turned my face away quickly. Suddenly, I felt cold again and shivered with my arms folded. I couldn't even stand in this damn place, let alone sleep.
I leaned against the wall for a while, and suddenly thought, why did Qingzi, that damn woman , know that I had been staring at the two girls just now? Could it be that she could see through the wall? I couldn't help but ask, "Why are their shadows here?"
After a while, I didn't hear a response, so I asked again.
This time, I finally heard the woman's impatient voice: "You and the other two girls have only one life and three bodies. What's so strange about you being able to see them?"
"But I've never seen this before?" I asked persistently. It has been more than two months since I came out of the ancient tomb in Southern Xinjiang, and I have never encountered anything like this.
Qingzi ignored me. I pondered for a while and thought that this room might be the cause of the trouble. As I thought about it, I felt my hands and feet were almost frozen. I stood up and stamped my feet, rubbing my hands and breathing out.
"What are you doing? Believe it or not, I will break your legs!" The dead woman's voice came from the other side again.
I said aggrievedly, "It's really too cold. You'll freeze to death if you don't move. Who will make breakfast for you and wash your clothes tomorrow?"
There was no sound from the other side. After a while of silence, Qingzi's cold voice floated over: "You won't feel cold if you sleep on the bed."
Damn it, why would I stay here freezing when I have a bed to sleep in! I was speechless for a long time, secretly cursing this damn woman in my heart for a long time, and suddenly I heard the woman's voice: "Are you not convinced and cursing me in your heart?" The tone was cold and chilling.
I was startled and said quickly, "No, I was just thinking about what to eat for breakfast tomorrow."
Qingzi snorted coldly, and after a while, she said, "Go to sleep quickly. If I hear you doing something naughty again, I'll throw you into the well immediately!"
When I heard the word "well", I was startled and dared not make any sound. I huddled in the corner and shivered. I caught a glimpse of Lin Wenjing and Liu Nan standing there. I stole a few glances but did not dare to look any more. My eyes accidentally passed over the broken hemp rope hanging in the air, and I could not help but feel moved.
I took off my shoes and tiptoed a few steps, trying not to make any noise. When I reached the end of the rope, I rubbed my hands, jumped up with force, wrapped my legs around the rope, and stretched my body flat, pressing against the rope.
I adjusted my breathing a few more times, relaxed my body, and pressed it tightly against the rope. I adjusted my body position a few more times, and at a certain moment, I discovered something amazing. When I lay on the rope like this, as long as I adjusted to a certain position, I could no longer feel the cold air on my body.
I tried it a few more times and found that it was real and not my hallucination. The dead woman said "I won't feel cold when I sleep in the bed", and it turned out that she was referring to this rope!
I am sure that this is not because of the rope, because it is just an ordinary hemp rope that I bought myself at the market.
Then, apart from this, there is only one possibility, which is because of the position I am in at this moment! In other words, after that dead woman Qingzi entered the house and took a look, she found this position and asked me to tie a rope here.
Except for this particular spot, the whole house would be filled with gloomy air at a certain time of night. So, it made sense for her to ask me to make a bed out of a rope?
When I thought of this, I immediately shook my head again. If this woman really cared about me, she could just let me sleep on the sofa in the living room. Why did she torture me like this? Besides, even if I could avoid the cold by climbing on the rope, it was only when I was awake. If I fell asleep, I would definitely fall flat on my face.
I was so exhausted that I didn't even close my eyes. I saw a faint light coming in from the door. It was already dawn. I looked at the corner of the wall and saw that the two ghost girls were gone. I jumped down from the rope and the room seemed to be back to normal. My legs went limp and I immediately fell to the ground, closed my eyes and fell asleep.
I was half asleep, and suddenly I felt a burning pain in my hand. I was awakened immediately. I got up from the ground suddenly, dizzy, and saw Qingzi's woman standing at the door. She had black hair hanging on her shoulders, which made her skin look even whiter. She was really beautiful, but too fierce. She didn't have the gentleness of a woman at all.
