"Well, the story you're telling is really scary." B said.

"And who's going to talk about it next?" A asked.

"I'll tell you, but I'm going to have a longer story." B said.

At this time, C in the corner sighed impatiently and turned over, her patience seemed to be almost worn out, and the heavy sigh just now sounded like she was on the verge of collapse. The four storytellers looked at each other and began to feel a little embarrassed, because it was indeed late at this time, and it would be midnight in half an hour, but listening to the story at midnight made them feel more comfortable, and they decided to ignore C's feelings and continue to tell. B began her story -

After the college entrance examination, Wu Xiying slept for two days in a row, and when she woke up, she looked at the bright sunshine outside the window, and at that moment, she easily wanted to fly. When she opened her phone, there were too many greetings in WeChat, and her friends Wei Shuwen and Zhou Lu thought she was missing, and a burst of warmth came to her heart, and she decided to ask these two friends to go to other places to play.

As soon as they said they would go, early the next morning, Wu Xiying drove them to the beautiful Spring City.

Spring City was not far from the city where they were, and it was about an hour away. They visited several famous sights, visited the main square, ate a lot of food, and finished at 7 o'clock in the evening. Summer evenings come late, and the sun is still shining at this point. The three of them did not want to go home, they discussed it, and decided to go to the Grand Canyon to play, it takes 5 hours to get from here to the Grand Canyon, they set off immediately, find a hotel to stay there, and then have a good time the next day.

In order to arrive quickly, Wu Xiying decided to take a shortcut, she knew that there was a secluded and narrow asphalt road, and it would save an hour to walk there, so she drove off the viaduct and drove some distance to the intersection of the main road and that road, and then turned down.

"You want to take a shortcut?" Wei Shuwen asked, and she found that there was not a single car on this road.

"Yes, you can save an hour by walking from here, in fact, it's nothing to save or not, I just hate traffic jams, which make people have a headache." Wu Xiying said.

"Yes, it is said that it takes 5 hours to get there, this traffic jam, 7 hours may not be able to get there, we have to save more than 2 hours to go here!" Zhou Lu said. She also agrees with Wu Xiying taking this path.

The road was silent and desolate, with no occupants on either side, and the noisy cars on the main road faded away, and the setting sun soon faded below the horizon, and when it got dark, the surroundings became quieter.

Wu Xiying turned on the music, and the car drifted away in the music.

The night was getting thicker and thicker, and the three of them began to get sleepy in the silence, and they were too tired to play today. Wu Xiying only then felt that it was a mistake to set off at this time, and that she should stay in Quancheng to rest for one night, and that she would climb the mountain today and drive for a few hours, and her body might not be able to bear it, and the two of them would not be able to drive, so they could only tire themselves. It's all to blame that I was so excited at the time that I didn't think of this.

"Why can't this road start? I feel like I've been driving for a long time. Wei Shuwen said.

"Don't worry, it's a long road, my aunt used to drive me through here, I won't get lost." Wu Xiying said.

In fact, she also muttered in her heart, why the road has become longer, last time it seemed that it would not take long to reach the intersection, she looked towards the window on the left, and saw only her own shadow on the window.

"It's so dark on this road, there is not a single street lamp, except for us, there is not a single car." Zhou Lu pressed her forehead against the glass and stared at the darkness, as if she was talking to them, more like talking to herself.

"yes, strange, it's been so long, and there hasn't been a single car coming and going." Wei Shuwen agreed, she sat in the front row with Wu Xiying, and was staring at the windshield boredly at the moment. "Be careful!" Suddenly she screamed, her eyes widened as if she had seen something terrible. Immediately following her screams, the windshield made a "bang" and something hit it, to be exact, the car hit it, followed by a screeching sound of brakes.

The three of them leaned forward and slammed into the back of their chairs, their brains shaking as if they were shaking in their heads.

"I hit someone!" Wu Xiying said in horror. She saw it too, but it was too late, and the front of the car hit a woman with a huge impact, and her body was bounced up, hit the windshield, and rolled to the ground again, not moving.

The three of them stared intently at the person lying less than a meter from the front of the car, lying on her side, right at the edge of the range of the headlights, as if she was not breathing.

"Why are you so careless!" Zhou Lu said.

"I was so tired and sleepy that I didn't notice." Wu Xiying said.

"Alas!" Wei Shuwen sighed and said, "We should have expected it a long time ago, and we shouldn't have set off today." It's also to blame the two of us for not being able to drive, only tired of yourself. ”

"What's the use of talking about that now. Call the police! Zhou Lu said.

"Don't call the police! Call the police and I'll be done! Wu Xiying suddenly became angry.

"I mean, maybe she's not dead, but she can be saved." Zhou Lu said.

"Let's go down and have a look." Wu Xiying opened the car door as she spoke, and went down first. Zhou Lu and Wei Shuwen followed.

The woman lay there, dressed in colorful clothes, with a large white face in stark contrast to her dark hair, her eyebrows as thin as a line, her eyes bulging, looking at the vast and distant sky, her lips were only a little, like a red cherry, and when the wind blew, she made a "rustle" sound.

"Hey! Isn't this a paper man! Zhou Lu said overjoyed.

Wu Xiying took a long breath and put down her hanging heart.

Only Wei Shuwen didn't speak, how could she be a paper person? She muttered to herself, she saw her walking, wanted to cross the road, and seemed to be carrying something in her hand, but she didn't see it at the moment, maybe it was thrown into the grass by the side of the road. Wu Xiying must have seen it too, at least she saw that she was upright, a paper figure standing upright on the road at night, is there anything stranger than this? But Wu Xiying was not surprised at all, maybe she didn't realize this yet, her spirit was too nervous, and as soon as she relaxed "suddenly", her brain temporarily fell into a blank.

"Hurry up and carry it to the side of the road, we have to hurry." Zhou Lu said and bent down. Wu Xiying joined hands, and the two carried the paper figure to the side of the road.

The three got into the car. Wei Shuwen never spoke, her face was ugly. When Wu Xiying started the engine and was about to hit the road, Wei Shuwen suddenly said, "Turn around!" ”

"What's wrong?" Wu Xiying looked at her and asked, and Zhou Lu behind her also showed a puzzled expression.

"We can't go any further, it's a strange road." Wei Shuwen said solemnly.

"What's so strange?" Wu Xiying asked.

"You must have forgotten that the paper figure was walking like a human being." Wei Shuwen said.

Wu Xiying had a frightened expression on her face. Zhou Lu's mouth opened wide in surprise, "I touched it just now!" She said, rubbing her hands in disgust, and half-convinced: "You can't be mistaken, right?" How can a paper man walk? ”

"She's right, I remember, the paper man was crossing the street with a lantern-like thing in his hand." Wu Xiying said.

"What a strange! The paper figure is supposed to be very light, but the moment you hit it, I clearly felt the weight of a person. Wei Shuwen said.

"That's right, I can feel it better, that's why I said I hit someone. But when I carried it, it was very light. What the hell is going on? Wu Xiying said puzzled.

"Maybe it's not clean, didn't you feel anything unusual the last time you came?" Wei Shuwen asked.

"Last time it was daytime." Wu Xiying said.

"We must have hit the devil! Let's go back. Zhou Lu urged.

So Wu Xiying turned around and drove quickly towards the original road, after the fright just now, he was completely sleepy.

The car drove and opened, but it still couldn't get to the end, an hour passed, two hours passed、、、、、、 the car ran out of gas immediately.

The sky is boundless and dark; The road is boundless and long.

Until the car ran out of gas, they still didn't drive the road.

"I had to call for help." Wu Xiying said that she took out her mobile phone and dialed "110". But when I dialed it, there was a "whoop" sound, like a noise when there was no signal on the radio. Wu Xiying had no choice but to hang up the phone, and Wei Shuwen and Zhou Lu called separately, all of which were like this. In desperation, Wu Xiying asked her aunt for help, after all, she knew this road, but the phone still couldn't get through, and she couldn't connect to the network when she sent WeChat.

"It seems that we are really in trouble." Wei Shuwen said.

"Let's sleep in the car tonight, and we'll just have to wait until dawn. Try not to go out. It's deserted and scary. Wu Xiying said and opened the window a crack.

"But I'd like to get rid of it." Zhou Lu said.

"Let's go down with her together, so strong." Wei Shuwen said to Wu Xiying.

The three of them got out of the car together, Zhou Lu turned on the flashlight on the mobile phone, and ran to the grass ditch for convenience, and they waited on the side of the road.

The grass ditch is very wide, very deep, and it is darker inside, and Zhou Lu is hidden inside, only to see the light of the mobile phone shooting out from the gap in the grass.

Fifteen minutes passed, and before Zhou Lu came up, Wu Xiying and Wei Shuwen couldn't help but be anxious, and lowered their voices and shouted over there, but no one responded. The two decided to go over and have a look. They walked cautiously down the grass ditch to the light. Zhou Lu was squatting there.

"You shouldn't shout at all." Wei Shuwen said.

But Zhou Lu still didn't squeak. Wu Xiying had a premonition that something was wrong, and also turned on the flashlight on his mobile phone, this photo, the two of them were so frightened that they almost didn't turn their backs, and Wu Xiying also let out a scream. Zhou Lu was squatting there, but her head was missing, the bowl-sized broken neck was scarlet, and the blood was still flowing out.

The two hurried back to the car, trembling.

"What's going on?" Wu Xiying said in a low voice.

"Stop talking!" Wei Shuwen also suppressed her voice.

They sat quietly in the car, and they didn't dare to turn on the lights.

Time passed little by little, it was only 9 o'clock, when was it dawn! Both were worried about the problem.

A "rustle" sound sounded outside the car.

"It's raining." Wu Xiying murmured softly.

"No, I hear it like the wind blowing paper." Wei Shuwen said.

The outside of the car continued to "rustle", suddenly clear and blurred, as if turning a circle from the front to the rear of the car.

In the dark, Wei Shuwen was vigilant, her eyes rolled, she knew very well what the "rustling" sound was, it had already caught up?

Suddenly! "Bang bang bang" three times, and someone knocked on the window pane.

"Who!" Wu Xiying straightened up, and the man knocked on the glass next to her.

"Do you want to stay at the hotel?" The man outside the window said it was a woman.

When Wu Xiying heard that it was a person, she rolled down the window of the car, and the woman held up a lantern, as if she wanted to see Wu Xiying clearly, "Let's stay in the hotel, little sister, I am the owner of a hotel near here." It's haunted, and I'm afraid something will happen to you. And the woman said, in a gentle voice.

Wu Xiying looked at her face, under the dim lantern light, she only knew that she was very beautiful, and she couldn't see what her facial features looked like.

"Go?" Wu Xiying asked Wei Shuwen.

Wei Shuwen thought about it and agreed. So, the two got out of the car and went with the woman.

The woman was holding a lantern and leading the way in front of Tingting.

Walking down a winding path, a house glowing yellow comes into view. During this time, they did not speak, and the woman kept walking in front, Wu Xiying and Wei Shuwen followed behind, staring at her swaying water snake waist.

The hotel has two floors, and there are candles on the counter on the first floor, and the yellow light seen outside is the light of candles. Except here, the whole building is dark, maybe the guests are sleeping, maybe there are no guests at all.

"There was a power outage, a power outage at both ends of the three days." The woman walked into the counter as she spoke, "Pay the money." $100 for two rooms. She added.

"We'll have one." Wu Xiying said as she took the money from her wallet.

Wei Shuwen looked at this woman from the moment she entered the door, this woman was wearing a colorful dress, she was very beautiful, her long black hair was draped over her shoulders, her white face, her eyebrows were curved, as thin as a line, her eyes were large, black and white, and her mouth was small, red and red, like a cherry.

The woman saw that Wei Shuwen was looking at her and smiled at her, and Wei Shuwen looked away.

"You live in 201.Go, I'll take you up." The woman put away the money and went upstairs with the lantern, followed by Wu Xiying and Wei Shuwen.

"There are candles and matches in the house, and you can light them yourself." The woman's gentle voice echoed on the second floor.

The second floor was so dark that it felt breathless, and it was cramped and cramped, with 201 at the end.

The woman took them into the room and went down. Wei Shuwen lit the candle, and the room suddenly became warm.

"Weird." Wei Shuwen muttered.

"Don't think about it, it's better than outside. Stay here for a night, and we will call the police at dawn tomorrow, and Zhou Lu's body is still squatting in the grass. Wu Xiying said.

"But I think that woman is too much like that paper man." Wei Shuwen said.

Wu Xiying pondered for a moment and said, "Then let's be careful, let's take turns sleeping tonight, you sleep first." It's half past ten, and I'll wake you up at two o'clock in the morning, and you'll take my vigil. ”

Wei Shuwen nodded, suddenly thought of something, and said, "Let's call the police again, maybe there will be a signal from that road." ”

Wu Xiying dialed it over, but it was still a "whoop" noise. Wei Shuwen dialed her mobile phone again, and it was the same.

The two sighed and lowered their heads in frustration.

"It's better for you to sleep first, you're more tired when driving." Wei Shuwen said.

Wu Xiying fell asleep.

Wei Shuwen sat at the end of the bed, staring at the burning candle on the table. She suddenly wanted to take a look downstairs. So, she stood up, gently opened the door and walked out. Groping in the almost suffocating dark hallway, the staircase was slightly brighter due to the candlelight downstairs. She paused at the top of the staircase, then crouched down two steps, a position where the counter could be seen through the railing, and the people below couldn't spot her unless they looked closely. The woman was sitting on a chair in the counter and wearing a sweater, snoring, yawning, and muttering to herself, "I'm so tired." Then he threw his sweater aside, leaned back, and went to sleep. Strangely, her eyes were not closed, staring straight at the roof. Wei Shuwen peeped at her, thinking that this woman was really weird. But gradually, her eyes widened, she covered her mouth, she saw that the woman's body and facial contours slowly became stiff, even the dress became straight and pouting, and finally, the woman became a paper figure! It's exactly the same as the one they hit on the road. Just as Wei Shuwen wanted to escape back to the room, an even stranger scene appeared, there was a red door on the side near the counter, and a little girl pushed the door and walked out, rubbing her eyes, as if she had just woken up, "Hungry." She said. The woman was woken up by her, straightened up, and in the short process she became a real person again, and said, "Oh, miss, you are awake, and today I have found you the best brain." As she spoke, she took out a round thing from the counter cabinet, and Wei Shuwen looked at it, ah! Isn't this Zhou Lu's head! "This is the brain of a beautiful young lady!" The woman said. The little girl giggled happily. The woman took a knife, clicked, and split her head in half, like cutting a watermelon, and the little girl took the spoon and dug it and ate it. "Miss eat slowly, there are two more upstairs, enough for you to eat for two days." The woman said. She was elbows on the counter, her hands dragging her cheeks, and she looked happy admiring the way her young lady ate.

Wei Shuwen was so frightened that she couldn't walk, and she crawled back to 201.

Wu Xiying was woken up by Wei Shuwen, as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Wei Shuwen's frightened face, and just as she wanted to speak, Wei Shuwen signaled her not to make a sound.

"Don't talk, let's get out of the window." Wei Shuwen whispered.

The two pushed open the window and jumped off, fleeing.

They didn't know where they were, they didn't know where they were, they didn't know where they were, they just ran, and they ran until dawn、、、、、、

When the day comes, all the darkness and evil disappear with the night. The strange inn was gone, and a grave appeared in that place, a child's grave, small, surrounded by miscanthus grass, and white paper money rolled on the ground in the wind. The fact is that the family of the dead little girl was afraid that she would be alone in the underworld, so they burned a paper figure for her, and this paper man took care of the little girl, treating herself as a maid and calling her Miss. Unexpectedly, this little girl turned into a ghost and loved to eat people, so her maid had to search everywhere for her.
