Chapter 4031 (four thousand and thirty-one) is even weirder
So this person quickly said to Tie Hongyan: "We heard the howling of ghosts before, but then we heard the sound of the wind, and it felt different."
"Are you worried about ghosts?" Tie Hongyan asked.
The man said: "Actually..."
"Say." Tie Hongyan said.
"We did hear weirder sounds later." The man replied.
"What's the strange sound?" Tie Hongyan asked.
"Crying," the man replied.
"Is it right here?" Tie Hongyan asked again.
"Yes, right here." The man replied.
Tie Hongyan asked: "Did any of you cry out of fear?"
The man waved his hand and replied: "I didn't cry in fear."
"I asked if any of you were scared to tears, but I didn't ask if you were scared to cry." Tie Hongyan said.
"This...I can't tell clearly." The man replied.
"Can't you tell?" Tie Hongyan asked, "Can't you tell if it's yes or no?"
"There was crying, but the source of the sound was strange, and I didn't feel like it was because of fear." The man said.
Tie Hongyan asked again: "What does it mean that the source of the sound is strange?"
"That's it...the crying seems to be coming from various directions. Some of it is coming from some of us, but it seems to be only a small part. Most of it is coming from elsewhere." The man answered.
"Elsewhere?" Tie Hongyan asked, "Where did it come from?"
"In the yellow sand," the man said, "We were surrounded by yellow sand at that time."
"Was the yellow sand very thick at that time?" Tie Hongyan asked.
"It's very thick." Nare said, "We can't see what's outside the yellow sand at all."
"Isn't anyone going out to take a look?" Tie Hongyan asked.
"I didn't go out to watch." The man replied. "Where are the others?" Tie Hongyan asked.
After she asked this question, she looked at the other people.
Those people looked at me and I looked at you, and they didn’t know what to say.
"Speak directly." Tie Hongyan said.
"Young Patriarch, when we heard that sound, we thought it was so strange. No one looked up at first."
"Yeah, protect yourself."
"Just in case you look up and get caught by something..."
"I wonder if there are any ghosts."
"I heard strange crying sounds. I don't know if the sounds were made by ghosts."
"Yes, no one is watching, and no one rushes out. We just want to protect ourselves."
Those people talked about the situation at that time. Some people would try to avoid the word "fear" when talking, and would always say something like protecting themselves.
Tie Hongyan said to one of them: "What did you say if you raised your head?"
"Ah? I...said...I said it wouldn't be safe if I raised my head and was eaten by a ghost." The man replied.
"Are you afraid of ghosts?" Tie Hongyan asked.
"Whether it has anything to do with fear or not, it's always right to protect yourself," the man said.
Tie Hongyan asked another person: "You just said you didn't know if there were ghosts. Did you feel there were ghosts or not?"
"At the time, it felt a bit like..." the man said, "but later I thought that the sound was actually related to two of us. I don't think it must be that way."
"Which two people?" Tie Hongyan asked.
The man looked at the man wearing the little gray hat and the man who had been arguing with him on the road, then stretched out his hand, pointed quickly, and quickly took his hand back, but he didn't point clearly clearly.
Tie Hongyan said: "Who are these two people? You closed your hands very quickly."
