Chu Huan frowned and asked, "He killed his companion first, and then committed suicide with a knife?" ”

"Although everyone was surprised that something like this happened suddenly, they didn't take it to heart." Xu Shun said: "General Feng ordered that all the corpses be buried, and ordered the whole army, this matter should not be mentioned again." The general had an order, and we naturally obeyed it, so no one said anything after that, and everyone thought it was an accident, but the next day we went to the desert and camped at the edge of the desert to rest for the night, this night and night! His eyes opened wide, and his voice was filled with fear: "But something even more terrible happened this night!" ”

"Is there another person who gets up in the middle of the night to kill someone?"

"It's not one, it's a bunch." Xu Shun said in a trembling voice: "That night, I felt dizzy, as if I was sick, so I went to bed early, and I had to go into the desert the next day. I was in a daze, and I heard shouting all around, and I was awakened, and I hurriedly got up with my sword, and there was still a moon in the sky, and the moon was shining on the earth, and I saw only a mess in the camp, and not far in front of my eyes, there were brothers killing each other! ”

"Cannibalism?" Chu Huan had a cold face, "What happened?" ”

"I saw five or six brothers who looked like they were going crazy, chasing after the others with knives and slashing and chopping, and screaming that a ghost was coming and that they were all going to hell together!" Xu Shun's body trembled, "In addition to the few people I saw, I also saw that other places were also in chaos, the whole camp, there were figures everywhere, knives flashed, for a while I couldn't tell who was still awake, I could only hide in a place with few people, I didn't know how to spend that night, and when it was dawn, there were hundreds of corpses lying on the ground, and hundreds of brothers were killed by knives overnight, and they were all killed by their own people." ”

Chu Huan asked: "When such a thing happens, you naturally have to investigate why someone suddenly went crazy at night." ”

"After dawn, General Feng had the corpses buried, and then gathered everyone." Xu Shun said: "After everyone gathered, General Feng asked people to push out three people, those three people were mixed with blood up and down, and they were tied hand and foot by ropes, General Feng told us that last night there were dozens of people who suddenly went crazy, and killed people when they saw them, although under the siege of everyone, almost all of the dozens of crazy guys were killed, but they still caught three alive." ”

"Those three people went crazy in the middle of the night, everyone was looking at it, that night these three people were like crazy people, killing their unsuspecting companions, but he knelt in front of us, the three of them all looked innocent, General Feng asked them why they killed their companions in front of us, we thought that everyone was watching, these three people must be honest, but they all said in unison that there was no murder at all, and they kept saying that they slept all night last night, and they just had nightmares." Xu Shun sneered: "Everyone can see what they are doing, and at this time, they are still talking, and everyone is shouting for them to be executed." ”

Chu Huan had already sensed the strangeness of this matter, and knew that those three people might not be telling their mouths, but I was afraid that there was something else going on.

"General Lin took a whip and beat those people in front of us, so that they could honestly confess why they killed their brothers, but General Lin beat them all covered in blood, and they really didn't remember what happened, they only remembered that after they went to bed last night, they had a nightmare, and when they woke up, they were tied up." Xu Shun said softly: "General Feng asked them what kind of dream they had, and they said that they said that they dreamed that countless evil spirits came to them to ask for their lives and surrounded them, and they could only resist desperately!" ”

Chu Huan knew that the General Lin in Xu Shun's mouth must be Lin Qingyuan, and thought that what those people said was only true.

The same wolf soldiers, in the middle of the night, the third watch suddenly got up silently and raised his knife to slash, and it was to slaughter his companions, which in itself is something that cannot be explained by reason and reason, as long as there is a little consciousness, these soldiers will never do such a thing, but they did it anyway, and they thought that all they did was to fight with ghosts in their dreams, which was extremely weird.

"General Feng did not continue to interrogate in front of us, but took the three people to a secluded place to continue the interrogation, and I don't know what they asked." Xu Shun said: "It's just that later all three of them were executed, and everyone didn't dare to say more." Early the next morning, the whole army began to enter the desert, and by this time our men and horses had already lost a lot. When we marched west, hundreds of people died, and in Lotus City, we also killed three or four hundred people, and that night, more than two hundred people died! There was a wry smile on his face: "Actually, if you really want to die early, it's not necessarily a bad thing, and you don't need to encounter what happened later." ”

"After we entered the desert, there were people in the army who knew how to walk through the desert to lead the way in front, and when we went west to pursue the prince of Lu, General Feng specially found a group of such people in the army." Xu Shun said softly: "After that kind of thing happened, no one spoke on the road, and when it was time to rest, I didn't dare to sleep anymore, for fear that I would be killed in my sleep, and I was vigilant against the people around me." What happened before, those crazy people had a seizure, and the first people to die were the people around him, so I also had to be careful, I held a knife at night, I didn't dare to sleep, and soon I found that not only did I do this, but everyone else also opened their eyes wide, although they looked tired, but they all stood up, like thieves, and they all glanced around, I knew that they were all like me, worried about sleeping at night without a head! "I stayed up most of the night, but I walked during the day, and I was in the middle of the desert, and I was already very tired, and my eyelids always had to be closed, so I poured a little water from the water bag, so that I could sober up a little and be able to hold on!" ”

Chu Huan went to Xiliang back then, crossed the vast Jingulan Desert, knew the taste of being in the desert, walking in the desert, the physical strength and energy consumed were not trivial, and the most important and contradictory thing to travel through the desert was not only to get out of the desert in the shortest time, but also to maintain physical strength and energy as much as possible.

However, from the first night of the desert, the wolf soldiers were not allowed to sleep because they were wary of their companions, so that instead of recovering their strength during the rest time, they would continue to consume energy, which was certainly not a good sign.

At this time, Chu Huan had already vaguely guessed why there were few thousands of wolf soldiers left to return to the Qin State, and the next few days would probably be a nightmare for those wolf soldiers.

Sure enough, I heard Xu Shun continue: "I finally managed to survive until the second half of the night, and suddenly I heard shouts again, and I immediately knew that someone must have gone crazy again!" ”

"Wait a minute." Chu Huan frowned and said, "You mean, for three days in a row, accidents happened in the middle of the night, and they all went insane in the middle of the night?" ”

"Insane?" Xu Shun had been staring at the ground, but at this time, he suddenly raised his head, looked at Chu Huan in the dark, and sneered: "You think they are insane? ”

Chu Huan said: "It's not a mental disorder, what is it?" ”

"It's a ghost." Xu Shun shuddered, "It's the ghosts of Lotus City that are haunted, otherwise why would they have nightmares, and they dreamed that ghosts came to them?" When we left Lotus City, we were already haunted by those ghosts! He looked straight at Chu Huan with both eyes, "Aren't you also pestering me to this day?" ”

"So you're saying that the ghosts that haunt you start in the middle of the night?" Chu Huan asked.

Xu Shun didn't seem to be in the mood to pay attention to Chu Huan, and continued: "That night, after all, the same thing happened, everyone was able to hold on to it in the first half of the night, but in the second half of the night, many people still fell asleep, as long as they slept, the ghost would possess the body, and it would make people go crazy, and that night, dozens of people died again!" ”

"Everyone knows that if you keep going like this, if you don't wait to get out of the desert, everyone will die in the desert, and that feeling is really worse than death." Xu Shun smiled bitterly: "General Feng saw that the accidents all happened at night, and there was nothing unusual during the day, so he thought of a way, every day when they rested, everyone had to collect their weapons, and then let people take turns to guard, and then send the weapons back to everyone the next day, and each of them took their own weapons and continued to march." After General Feng came up with this idea, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that without weapons, even if someone went crazy in the middle of the night, it would be difficult to hurt people's lives. ”

Chu Huan thought to himself, under that kind of situation at that time, it would be a good idea for Feng Hanxiao to come up with such a method, but he also knew that this method obviously did not work, otherwise the wolf soldiers would not be able to get out of the desert.

Sure enough, Xu Shun sneered: "After everyone's weapons were confiscated, they all thought they could sleep peacefully, but in the middle of the night, another group of people had a seizure, although they had no weapons, but the method of killing people was even more terrifying, they actually took advantage of others to sleep, rushed forward, and bit other people's throats, just like wild beasts, once bitten, they would not let go, people were killed by cutting their throats, and some people held their own helmets and smashed them down on other people's heads, again and again, until the heads were smashed to pieces!" ”

Chu Huan has been living and dying for a long time, and there is no shortage of souls under the knife, but thinking of the scene back then, he slept well in the middle of the night, when someone suddenly pounced on him, bit his throat, or smashed his head with a helmet, the bloody scene seemed to be right in front of him, but it also made Chu Huan feel a chill down his spine.
