Chapter 14: Coward

What made Li Shaohui even more speechless was that his uncle was inspired by him, and when Li Shaohui's cousin was three years old, he bought a DVD player, and rented all kinds of horror movies from the street, and took Li Shaohui's cousin to watch them together.

Until now, Li Shaohui's cousin still likes to watch this kind of horror movie, for him, Chinese horror movies are pediatrics, his favorite is the kind of foreign suspense thriller blockbusters that are both disgusting and terrifying, such as "Midnight Bell", "Curse", and what makes Li Shaohui even more admired is that this cousin used to be alone at home in the middle of the night, while eating supper with relish, while watching "Resident Evil" and "Chainsaw Horror" intently and other super disgusting and cruel horror movies, I didn't feel any discomfort at all.

In this regard, Li Shaohui also kindly persuaded his cousin not to watch this kind of cultural dross all the time, so as not to make his heart distorted and gloomy, but what surprised Li Shaohui was that although his cousin likes to watch this kind of thing, people turn their heads and forget it every time they watch it, and they can't remember these even if they travel late at night, so these horror movies have little impact on people.

Therefore, Li Shaohui sometimes thinks that his cousin's abnormal behavior is to fight poison with poison, and if he watches too many horror movies, he can also be bold and purify his soul?

Thinking of these old events, Li Shaohui became more and more scared in his heart, it was now more than 3 o'clock in the morning, listening to the old people at home, it was the golden time for demons and monsters to come out and wander.

And Li Shaohui still clearly remembers a story that his grandmother told him, when his grandmother was still very young, her home was on Taihang Mountain, once, when she woke up in the middle of the night, looking at the bright moonlight outside the window, on a bright night, she mistakenly thought that the day was about to dawn (at that time, there was basically no alarm clock in a poor mountain village), so she got dressed and took a hoe to weed the fields on the distant hillside.

When she got to the middle of the field, she suddenly heard a noise from under the ravine at the east end of the field, intermittently, if there was nothing, there was a man's anxious and desperate scolding, there was also a woman's sad and helpless sobbing, and the baby's babbling crying, many voices were mixed together, and I couldn't hear the right and wrong.

At that time, my grandmother was still thinking that this family was really good, and when I arrived in the field at this time, I didn't work hard, and I had to make a lot of noise, making chickens and dogs restless. When Grandma weeded to the east, she stopped and looked down the ravine, but found that there was nothing, and the sound stopped at this moment. Although the grandmother was a little strange, she didn't care too much, so she continued to weed, and when she reached the middle of the field, the noisy sounds started again, intermittently.

Grandma shook her head helplessly, thinking that the family would not be hiding in the woods at the bottom of the mountain to quarrel, right? After that, Grandma didn't pay attention to it, and concentrated on hoeing the ground, and after about two hours, when the east gradually revealed a touch of fish belly white, Grandma also happened to have finished removing the grass in this field.

Grandma moved her tired body for a while, and was about to sit down to rest, when she suddenly remembered the quarrel again, and planned to go over to persuade the family.

When my grandmother walked there again and looked to the east of the field, she was startled, where were there any people at the bottom of the mountain?

This grave is buried by one of the poorest families in the village, who seven years ago, because they could not afford a penny of their poverty, so they simply built a cave on the slope of the hill below to live in.

It didn't take long for the village to rain heavily, followed by a once-in-a-century flood in the mountains. After the flood passed, the people of the village went to rescue the family in groups, but they searched there for seven days and seven nights, but found nothing, and the four members of the family were washed away by the flood without a trace. In the end, everyone had no choice but to find some utensils and items used by this family before their deaths, and set up a few clothes and mounds for them.

Grandma looked at these graves in amazement, thinking that the sound of the scolding just now seemed to be the scene before being washed away by the flood, so since then, the palpitating grandma no longer dares to go to the fields alone to weed, and every time she goes out, she has to be accompanied by her family.

Thinking of such a scene, Li Shaohui became more and more frightened, his whole body was trembling, and beads of sweat were dripping from his head in the cold night.

It is said that there are three lamps in life, one for the head and one for the left and right shoulders, which is the "true fire of samadhi" of people, which can protect people from being invaded by evil spirits.

Therefore, when a person walks on the road at night, no matter what sound he hears, as long as he does not look back, the lamp will not go out, and the demons and monsters will not dare to approach because they are afraid of the "true fire of samadhi".

And if people can't resist the bewitchment of ghosts, every time they turn around, one of the lamps on their people will be blown out by the ghosts, and when all three lights are extinguished, they can do whatever they want.

Li Shaohui walked forward in fear, trying not to look back and back, but the more he thought about it, the more afraid he became, and he had the urge to call his cousin, but now he didn't even seem to have the courage to take a mobile phone, so Li Shaohui was ruthless in the end, mustered up his courage, and ran forward, but after running a few steps, he saw a white item hanging on the tree in front of him, like a white and impermanent floating dust. Frightened by this, Li Shaohui couldn't hold on any longer, and let out an exclamation of "ah", followed by tripping over a stone and falling to the ground.

Li Shaohui's exclamation was so abrupt and piercing on such a quiet and peaceful night, and then the lights of several nearby houses were turned on, and several old people leaned out one after another and looked out of the window with flashlights, and when they saw that it was Li Shaohui, they couldn't help complaining: "Xiao Li, you don't sleep at night, come out to pretend to be a corpse?"

Li Shaohui smiled awkwardly, patted the dust on his body, and hurriedly ran home, after this incident, the fear in his heart has been reduced a lot, at the same time, he sighed unlucky, disaster is not a single line, just lost his job a few days ago, and yesterday was humiliated by a lewd man for no reason, and was scared half to death at this time, it was really a house leak that happened to rain overnight.

If Li Shaohui knew that there was only a white plastic bag hanging on the tree just now, it is estimated that he would have the heart to commit suicide.

Li Shaohui felt sorry for himself, now he is so depressed and embarrassed that he is about to become a lonely ghost in reality, if he can really meet a ghost ghost in the underworld on the road, wouldn't it be sympathy, you can get drunk and form a friendship, if this ghost ghost is the gentle and kind beauty vixen in "Strange Tales from Liaozhai", it will be even better, and you can tie the knot and create a beautiful marriage.

In this way, Li Shaohui unconsciously returned home, he lay on the bed tiredly, closed his eyes, and after the fatigue of the day and the fright just now, within a few minutes, he entered a sweet dream.

This sleep is Li Shaohui's most comfortable rest this year, there is no noisy clock at work, no work troubles, and no emotional gains and losses... When he woke up, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon, and he stretched and half-leaned on the bed, staring at the desk in front of him.

After a while, the mobile phone remembered the song, "What made me cry, not only last night's wine, made me reluctant, not only your gentleness, how long will the rest of the road go, you hold my hand..."

"Hey, Brother Hui, why did you answer the phone?" Liu's complaining words were a little depressed. "Why don't you come back? We'll go and plead with you, and we'll be fine." Do you know? Manager Song's mood is also very bad these days, and he has a sad face all day long, sighing and sighing. ”

Li Shaohui smiled bitterly, he didn't know what to say, anyone who encountered this kind of thing would be very uncomfortable.

At this time, Liu's head said aggrievedly: "This morning, Manager Song asked me to write a plan, and it took me a lot of effort to complete the plan, but when he saw a few of these inconsequential typos, he scolded me in front of so many people, and even Zhang Qiang and several of them were scolded for various small reasons. ”

"Won't you kid learn a little bit? I usually carry it for you, but now that I'm gone, you still have to add fuel to the fire at this time, and it's no wonder if you don't get scolded?"

Liu laughed dryly, and said: "Brother Hui, it stands to reason that you are in a bad mood, and I heard Brother Song say that you went out to travel and relax, I shouldn't bother you, but it's not a way for our group A to go on like this!"

Listening to Liu's words, Li Shaohui was silent for a long time, and comforted: "Don't worry, I will talk to Brother Song about this matter, you can work with confidence, don't make any more moths." ”

"That's good, just wait for your words. Liu's head laughed when he heard this. Only then did Li Shaohui realize that he had fallen into the trap of this kid, and dared to love this kid for a long time, and his real goal was to persuade Song Dafu. Thinking of this, Li Shaohui couldn't help but scold: "Big head, do you think my brother is not there, so I can't help you?"

"Hehe, Brother Hui, you have a lot of adults, so naturally you don't care about such trivial matters, I have another good news about you here, do you want to hear it?"

Li Shaohui wanted to scold him, but thinking that he was so weak now, it was good to have good news to rush to the bad luck, so he asked: "Say it quickly, if you kid dare not say it, I will let Brother Song kill you when I go back." ”

"Communiqué personal vendetta!" Liu sighed with a big head, and then said thoughtlessly, "Do you remember the advice you gave me?"

The second monk Li Shaohui was puzzled, and he wondered what advice he had given him?
