1. The supernatural things in the kiln

This was told to me by my mother, who had heard an old lady talking to her grandmother before.

This old lady's surname is Yu, she was a prostitute when she was young, and her workplace was called Qinglou in literature and art, and it used to be called a kiln, and recruiting prostitutes was called visiting a kiln, and the prostitute became Sister Kiln.

It is said that this old lady Yu was very beautiful when she was young, but she was lazy and didn't want to work, so she simply went to the kiln to be a kiln sister, earned a lot of money, and finally married a carpenter, and never had children in her life (there was no condom before, and Sister Yao avoided pregnancy by taking medicine all year round, which led to infertility for a long time), recognized three goddaughters, and in her later years, the three goddaughters earned to take care of her, which was closer than some of her daughters. Because this old lady is super rich, when she is old, she throws money and food stamps on the kang, and whoever takes care of her will take them.

In her later years, this old lady often went to my grandmother's house, and several old ladies sat on the kang and chatted, knowing what she was doing, but no one looked down on her. The phrase "laughing at poverty and not laughing at prostitution" worked at that time. Rural women are willing to "dig into the corner", now it is to gossip about other people's privacy, because the old lady and my grandmother are good, my grandma is famous for being powerful, and no one dares to ask too much.

Mrs. Yu also thought about it, and saw that these old ladies were suffocated by curiosity, so she told them some things about her time as a kiln sister (children should not talk about it), and these little old ladies were all interested, and no one in the room spoke, and the "classroom discipline" was quite good. My mom and they all listened to it together, and one of them was a very strange thing that my mom still remembers.

It was not long after the old lady Yu did the kiln sister, and the kiln where she was was located was a few connected earthen houses, one autumn, the night was stormy, and more than ten kiln sisters in the kiln were lazily lying on the kang, and the small oil lamp was blown and swayed, as if it was going to be extinguished at any time, and there was no business tonight, and the old bustard was also boring knitting sweaters, and scolding in his mouth.

Just when the old bustard was about to close the door and go home to rest, someone knocked on the gate in the yard, and the old bustard was pleasantly surprised, and went out with an umbrella to open the door. When the door was opened, a man in a raincoat came in, and the old bustard let him into the house, because the man was wearing a black raincoat and a buttoned hat, and it was dark, and he couldn't see his face clearly. The old bustard is not like in the TV series, laughing and shouting, uncle come to play? (Isn't that nonsense?) If you don't come here to play, don't you chant poetry? ）

The man entered the house and looked around, and then the old bustard saw by the faint light that the man was wearing a pair of big scalp shoes on his feet, which was one of the signs of a rich man, and leather shoes were worn by rich people at that time. The old bustard immediately became interested, so he pointed to the girls on the kang and said, "Big brother, choose whatever you want." The man didn't speak, maybe he wasn't bad for money, and he didn't ask the price, so he pointed to the old lady Yu on the kang (it was Miss Yu at the time). The old bustard called her to get off the kang and go to the house to pick up the guests.

Mrs. Yu was the top brand in the kiln at the time, and she could choose not to pick it up, she said no at that time, first, it was rainy and cloudy, and the person's clothes were all rain and mud, and Mrs. Yu was dirty, and she felt that this person was weird, which made people feel uncomfortable. Mrs. Yu is a very smart and knowledgeable person, it is precisely because of her intelligence that her old age will not be so unbearable, and the other kiln sisters spent all their money when they were young, and they are very miserable when they are old.

The old bustard was unhappy when he saw that the old lady didn't do it, but he didn't say anything, but fortunately, the man was not strong, and the old bustard called another girl, and the man agreed. The girl smiled charmingly, took the man's arm and walked into the other room、、、、、、 after a long time, the kiln sister walked out, and the old bustard stepped forward and asked, where is he? Why don't you still spend the night here? The kiln sister looked puzzled and said, he came out first, didn't you see it? Now, the old bustard and all the other girls were stupid, and said, didn't anyone come out? They went to the room together to look around, there was no figure, only saw the black raincoat hanging on the wall, at this time, everyone's faces were frightened white, the old bustard took the raincoat, it was okay not to take it, as soon as he took it, he was scared half to death, the material of the raincoat was made of paper, and there was a layer of wax on it.

The kiln sister who picked up the customer screamed in fright, she said that when she served him, the person was cold, and she thought it was raining, but now it seems that it is not like that.

The old bustard was also frightened, and she immediately asked all the girls to go home with her (in the past, the old bustard raised the kiln sister, ate and lived together, and the work was not the same place as usual).

The kiln sister who picked up the guest fell seriously ill after going back, and died within a few days, and the death was extremely terrifying, it is said that it started from the lower body, and then the whole body was rotten.

Because this incident was so strange, the old bustard built a house in another place, and the original row of earthen houses was abandoned.

2. Suicide in the dormitory

The story takes place in a university, at the beginning of that year, a sophomore boy came back from a very remote and remote countryside, and after putting down his luggage, he went to wash his face first, but when he came back to pack his luggage after washing his face, he found that the 3,000 yuan he brought back was missing.

This boy grew up in a very poor country, after hard work finally went to college, this is a glorious thing, the old father is happy to keep his mouth shut, but also for this family is in debt, this time the tuition is also several hard work, borrowed from the east to borrow the west family to scrape together, at that time the money for him, the importance can be imagined.

When he found out that the money was lost, he immediately asked the people in the dormitory if they had seen it, and of course everyone said no, and one of them kindly reminded him why he didn't put the money in the card. The boy cried and said that his home was too far away from the township and inconvenient, and he wanted to come to school, rest for a while, and then go to the bank to deposit the money, but he didn't expect it to be stolen so soon. He kept explaining the importance of the money to everyone, endlessly begging everyone to return it to him, and later kowtowing to each of his roommates, so that everyone went out and ignored him, so that even the person who really stole his money would not be able to take it out.

Later, it developed into the entire dormitory building, he lingered in every floor and every dormitory like a ghost every day, walked to the door of the dormitory in other people's rooms and kowtowed, so scared that everyone avoided him when they saw him, and did not dare to open the door, as soon as they saw him coming, they quickly closed the door.

A few days later, he hanged himself in his dormitory.

Then, something strange happened.

Generally, there will be some iron brackets extending out on the balcony of the dormitory for students to dry their clothes, and when a boy was drying clothes, he hung his pants to dry, but he found that next to his pants, a pair of legs were hanging in the air, and they were gently shaking in the wind like hanging pants.

When the door was closed at night and I went to bed, someone heard a very strange knocking sound outside the dormitory door, which sounded like something hitting the ground, as if ~~ as if ~~ the boy's kowtow that day.

Later, the situation became more and more serious, first the dormitory where the boy who committed suicide used to live, and then it developed to the fact that all the boys in the dormitory building strongly wanted to move out, and the school had no choice but to make other arrangements for them, so the dormitory building was empty. In the second year, there were new students, but these unlucky freshmen also saw strange phenomena and heard strange sounds.

Finally, no one dared to stay in this dormitory building anymore, and people from other buildings looked over, but they vaguely saw that someone seemed to be wandering inside. The students were so frightened that the school demolished the boys' dormitory.

4. Soul Sucker

I have a classmate Xiao B, who is in college at Jiaotong University, and has not been in touch for a while, and met him on the street by chance, I was startled by him at that time, only to see that his face was blue and his eye sockets were sunken. At first I thought he was joking, but looking at his ghostly face, even I, a ghost who never believed, were full of suspicion, and he looked at me with straight eyes, swearing that he was telling the truth, and then he swallowed nervously and began to remember horrific 、、、、、、

At the beginning of the freshman year, the class teacher said at the class meeting: Welcome to the 29 new students in the class. He had the heart to count them, thirty people in total, thinking that he must be wrong, or the head teacher counted him, and he didn't care. Soon after the start of school, the students were all familiar with it, there was only one boy, who was more withdrawn, and he was a day student and never communicated with others. Xiao B is a warm-hearted person, afraid that the classmate will be lonely, so he took the initiative to chat with him, and the relationship between the two is very good, but the classmate has two strange characteristics, one is that he never shakes hands with others, and the other is that he never eats with others. Xiao B had the honor to shake his hand, but he only felt cold, and at the same time there was a feeling of fear in his heart. Xiao B also saw him eating, it was a very fortuitous chance, Xiao B gave up the nap time, went to the classroom for self-study, but found that the classmate was eating lunch, it seemed to be a black fire, sandwiched with a green onion, he saw Xiao B come in, his expression was a little strange, he threw the leftover half of the fire into the table hole, laughed twice and went out、、、、、、、

Xiao B felt a little curious, plus he had never seen him eat, so he went to dig out the table hole to see what he ate, and when he pulled it out, it was even more strange, it turned out to be a piece of roasted animal heart, half-baked, and the green onion was gone, only half of the chalk was found, Xiao B was just strange, or didn't think much about it, so he went to self-study, and after a while, the classmate came back again, said he was hungry, and went to the table hole to get that thing to eat, and suddenly saw the scattered chalk, his face changed greatly, and there was a sound between his teeth, and he quickly turned around twice in the classroom, and went behind Xiao B, Suddenly, he said: Little B, there is a white hair on the back of your head, I will pull it out for you! After saying that, he started immediately, and Xiao B instinctively dodged, but those cold hands had already reached his neck、、、、、、

At this time, the classmate who occupied the seat in class came, and the person had to stop his hand stupidly, and Xiao B found that the classmate looked at him strangely instead of the person. Since then, Xiao B felt that the man was too withdrawn and deliberately alienated him, but the man often came to him when others were away, and Xiao B had to deal with it superficially、、、、、、 but often dreamed that he was eaten by that person at night. When I woke up, I felt too bizarre, so I never mentioned it to anyone, but my body was getting weaker, my face was blue、、、、、、 and I finally survived until graduation, and the classmate never came to him after pulling Xiao B to take a graduation photo. Everyone is very strange, saying that there has never been this person in the class, Xiao B argues with everyone, saying that he also took a graduation photo, standing next to himself, it just so happened that a classmate brought a graduation photo, at a glance, where is there a trace of that person, everyone said that Xiao B was drunk, only Xiao B really knew what he had met、、、、、、 just a few days ago, during the celebration of Peking University, he went to Peking University to play, and there were also a few alumni who also went, but not together, he found the classmate again, lying behind an alumnus, With a piece of white hair in his mouth, he sucked hard、、、、、、

5. Don't count the stairs

I'm a staunch atheist, but since I started studying medicine, so many incredible things have happened around me. These things contradict me, and when I keep reminding myself to look at them materialistically, I find that my mind becomes more and more confused.

Six years ago, I was admitted to S Medical College, but for me, this is not good news, I have hated the dead smell of disinfectant water in the hospital since I was born, if it weren't for the instigation of my parents, saying that this line of work is an iron rice bowl, I wouldn't have come here.

Perhaps because of the depression, I barely socialized with my classmates, and I remember having only one friend at the time.

His name is Anzi, and I always call him that. He always wears a sportswear that has not changed as an adult, and he wears a Chairman Mao badge on his chest. Although his dress was a little rustic, it didn't stop us from becoming friends.

Both of us are more introverted people, and all cultural and sports activities are insulated from us, and we just stay in the lecture hall on the fifth floor every day to study. I remember back then, we were seen as nerds, because if anyone went to the lecture hall to study, they would be seen as having a problem, and everyone usually went to the library.

Sitting in one place all day was extremely boring for us, but I couldn't figure out what else I could do.

Most of the time, I held my head up and watched the lights on the ceiling being blown around in the wind. When I look at it like this, I always think of Galileo, who discovered the anachronism of posing because he was bored, right?

When I think like that, I laugh out loud.

I always wanted to figure out how Anzi could be so focused on studying. Outside the window of the lecture hall was a jungle, and there were so many birds chirping on it that he could not even look at it. "This guy is such a nerd." I sat behind him and looked at his back and thought.

But I don't want to say that Anko is a perfect person. He has a quirk of always counting the steps of each floor when he goes upstairs, counting them one by one, never falling one step down, and if he accidentally counts incorrectly, or suddenly forgets where to count, he will go back the way he came, start from the beginning, and start again.

Now it seems that Anzi had "obsessive-compulsive disorder" at that time. ”

However, I was very tired of him at the time, and it was boring anyway.

But to this day, I can vividly recall what happened that night—everything that happened on that horrible night.

Yasuko and I walked down the dark stairs leading to the lecture hall, and he counted the steps as usual. I wasn't too annoyed, after all, in the darkness where you couldn't see your fingers, you would feel a lot less effort if someone counted the stairs for you. So, I also responded to the numbers in his mouth in my heart.

"4,5、、、、、、" Anzi took every step slowly, so I had to accompany him slowly.

"Nine, 10, eleven,、、、、、、 strange!" Anzi said suddenly.

"What's weird?" I asked.

"Zhigang, don't you remember how many stairs there are on this floor when we usually go upstairs?"

"Hmm, this 、、、、、、 level 12, probably, I'm not sure." I remembered that when I went upstairs during the day, I always took 3 steps, as if I could take 4 steps, "Don't you count often?" Also asked. ”

"Oh, yes, it should be level 12,、、、、、、 but today I only counted to 11."

"That must be a miscount. Leave it alone. ”

"No! Stairs will not be gratuitously one step less. Go back with me, and count from below. ”

I was annoyed and wanted to give him a punch, but I didn't. There was no one on the stairs in such darkness, and out of my duty as a friend, I followed Anzi and walked back.

"9,10,11、、、、、、 "When Anko and I reached the last staircase, I suddenly felt a cold pound on my back, and my scalp was about to explode. Stairs, stairs are really one step less than usual, it becomes 11 steps!

"Zhigang, you 、、、、、、" Before Anzi finished speaking, I guessed that he was going to ask me to go back with him and count the stairs from the beginning.

In the darkness, I couldn't see Anzi's expression, but I suddenly remembered the corpse in the autopsy room.

"No, no! I'm not going! Go yourself! "I felt my legs start to spin.

I can't tell why I was so scared, I just felt a huge fear fill my heart, "Don't expect me to count this damn staircase with you again!" "I left Anzi behind and ran downstairs as if I were flying.

On the bed in the dormitory, I gasped for breath, and when I realized that I could not lie down or sit down quietly, I got up and paced back and forth on the floor, and no one in the dormitory came back, so I turned on all the lights.

It seemed like a century had passed, and someone had finally returned, so I immediately grabbed them and went to the lecture hall with a flashlight to look for Anko.

We searched everywhere we could, but we couldn't find Anko. He was not subsequently found by school officials or the police. Anko, missing.

Three years after Anzi's disappearance, the medical school began to expand, and when a huge excavator knocked down the building with the lecture hall, in the ruins of the stairs on the fourth floor, people found a pile of white bones, and in the middle of the white bones, there was a statue of Chairman Mao.

I know it's Anzi, because, I've heard, if a person goes upstairs and finds that one step is missing, he will go and replace that staircase.

Until now, I still don't dare to count the stairs.
