Time: Late winter, 11 p.m.

Location: Ten miles of evergreen view.

Weather: Cold, windy.

The candles burned out, and the room was plunged into darkness, and no fingers could be seen.

I got out of bed and found an oil lamp next to the candlestick, and next to the oil lamp there was a glass jar with thick black oil.

I picked up the glass jar and filled the oil lamp with oil, and when I lit it with a lighter, I immediately smelled a very strange smell coming to my nose.

I just smelled a foul smell, but after inhaling it in my lungs, it seemed to have a faint fragrance, and the smell was mixed with fragrance, which made me feel a little intoxicated.

It's like eating stinky tofu.

The room was not large, and the strange smell soon filled the room.

The old fat shrugged his nose, yawned, and said lazily: "Strange, why do you suddenly feel so sleepy!" ”

I thought to myself, could it be that there is a misty fragrance in this lamp oil? But when I smell it, I don't feel sleepy, but I feel very energetic, how can I explain this?

Looking at the old fat who was snoring quickly, I was slightly stunned, worried that there was something wrong with this lamp oil, so I wanted to blow it out.

However, as soon as I turned around, I saw a strange pale woman's face outside the window, staring directly at me.

The table was originally placed by the window, and I was standing in front of the window at the moment, only half a step away from the woman's face, within reach.

This strange and terrifying scene frightened my heart, and my whole scalp instantly became numb, and I involuntarily took a step back, distancing myself from the woman's face.

The light of the lamp flickered, as if it had turned dark green for a moment.

When I looked out the window again, I saw that the woman's face was gone, and the outside was empty, and the vigorous ancient pines in the courtyard could be faintly visible, swaying and rustling in the wind.

I rubbed my eyes and reconfirmed, there was nothing outside the window.

Is it a delusion?

I frowned, thinking that the woman's face I had just seen was familiar, but for a moment I couldn't remember where I had seen it.

For no reason, how can you see a woman's face peeking at you outside the window?

To say that this is a Taoist temple, enshrined in the statue of the Heavenly Master, and the demons and monsters are not so bold?

I was extremely uneasy in my heart, and went to call Lao Fei, but this thing died in sleep, and I couldn't wake up no matter how I called.

Finally I took the lighter and flashlight from him and pushed the door out to see if there was really anything dirty outside the window.

Outside the window is the courtyard, under the beam of the flashlight, the surroundings are desolate and desolate, and he didn't ask the Changqing Daoist which house he lives in just now.

At this time, I only felt that the whole big house was empty, and only myself and Lao Fei were left.

Nothing unusual, could it be a hallucination in my mind?

I shook my head and returned to my room.

Lying in bed, I tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, glancing out the window from time to time, always feeling that something outside was peeking at me.

After more than ten minutes like this, sleepiness hit my eyelids, I yawned, and was about to snatch the quilt from Lao Fei to cover my body to keep warm.

At that moment, I became wary and jerked out the window.

When I saw it, I was shocked, because I saw the strange woman's face again.

This time I could see it clearly, it could never be a hallucination.

The woman's hair was disheveled, her face was pale, her eyes were sunken like bottomless pits, and her face was expressionless, staring straight at me.

She was...... That crazy woman!

My face was full of incredulity, what was this crazy woman doing in the middle of the night running into the Taoist temple, and looking at me with such strange and terrifying eyes.

"You...... How did you get here? ”

With some trepidation, I asked the mad woman through the window.

The madwoman grinned at me and said, "You...... I'm going to die! ”

"You...... What do you mean? ”

Hearing this, my whole body trembled, and the crazy woman actually opened her mouth to speak to me, and she spoke clearly, with a strange expression on her face, and she didn't look crazy and cowardly before at all.

Just as I was puzzled, the madwoman suddenly turned her head and wanted to leave.

"Wait...... You make it clear. ”

I picked up my whip and chased me out of the room with a flashlight.

When they came to the courtyard, they found her fleeing towards the iron gate.

I rushed over to grab her, but the next scene plunged me into deep fear.

Because my outstretched hand actually passed through her body, and I didn't catch anything, but she was clearly in front of me!

The iron door was closed at the moment, and she went straight through.

Through the wall and through the door, it is not a real person.

I was horrified in my heart, could it be that I had met the legendary wanderer?

When I was a child, I heard people in the village say that when people are dying, there is a saying that there is a soul left.

The so-called soul wandering is when the soul of a dying person leaves her own flesh and wanders around, and her soul is awake. Whether she was insane or mentally ill during her lifetime, the soul had its own clear mind and memory.

"Do you mean...... Mad woman is dying? ”

But in the evening, when I and the Evergreen Daoist brought her food, she was fine, although she was crazy, but her physical fitness was quite good, didn't there be an accident?

Thinking of this, I was anxious, and I opened the iron door and chased out.

The iron door was unlocked, and when I chased it out, I found that the madwoman had drifted over the col.

That's right, she's floating.

"Hey! Wait a minute! ”

I shouted as I ran after her.

But she didn't look happy, but no matter how I couldn't catch up, I chased until the madwoman's dilapidated house, and she didn't stop, and went towards the gate of the checkpoint.

Outside the gate is a mountain range, and there is moonlight projected down, the moonlight is separated by a level, and the outside is bright, but the inside of the level is dark and gloomy.

There seemed to be a strange black mist in the col absorbing the moonlight projected in.

When chasing beyond the level, the figure of the mad woman disappeared at once, and from a distance, the surrounding woods were filled with silver brilliance, and the cold wind blew the treetops, with a hint of red dust and a trace of gloomy atmosphere.

"Where did you go?"

I looked around and saw the madwoman, so I went back to the broken house to see if she was there.

But at this moment, someone suddenly pushed him the back.

This time there was no sound, I was caught off guard, and I was pushed three or four meters away in an instant, stumbling and almost falling down.

"Who?"

I was shocked and angry, and when I turned to look, I found that the two iron doors that had been open had closed with a bang, and then an eerie, frightened, anxious voice came from inside the door.

"Hurry up, he's going to kill you, and if you don't leave, it's too late!"

It was the voice of the crazy woman, it must have been her who pushed me out just now, she said that someone killed me, could it be the Evergreen Daoist? There was no one else in this place but him.

"It's not good, the old fat is in danger."

Thinking of this, I reached out and pushed the iron door, but the iron door seemed to be locked, and it seemed as if someone was holding it inside, and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't push it open.

For unknown reasons, the madwoman's spirit found me and pushed me out to leave.

But one thing is for sure, she must have sensed the danger, but why did she save me?

Could it be because I repaired her doors and windows before, and she was grateful to me, so she came out to remind me?

But...... Lao Fei is still sleeping like a dead pig in the Evergreen Temple, how can I leave him alone?

Although the iron gate could not be entered, it only sealed the road into the col, and there were other places to enter.

At this thought, I flashed my flashlight around the iron door and came to the broken house, which had collapsed to the point of collapse, and I easily slipped into the house through the collapsed mud wall, and then came to the room where the madwoman was.

The door to the room was open, and the moment I stepped inside, I immediately heard a strange sound coming from the beams diagonally above.

"Squeak...... Squeak......"

The voice was soft, but it was particularly harsh in the silence and darkness of the room.

I followed the sound with a flashlight, and the pupils of the whole person instantly dilated, and my scalp was numb again!

I saw that on the roof beam in the room, a woman with a cloak was floating in the air, no! Correctly speaking, it should be hung on the roof beam.

Her arms were down, facing me, and her whole body hung in the air and swayed, and as her body swayed, the rope around her neck rubbed against the wooden beams, making a strange noise.

Crazy Woman...... She...... I actually hanged myself!

At this time, the first thing that came to my mind was to save people, so after the shock, I immediately rushed over, her hanging roof beam was a little high, and I couldn't reach the soles of her feet with my hand.

At such a high place, I don't know how she climbed up?

I hurriedly pulled the tattered dresser to the side, jumped up, hugged the madwoman's legs and lifted them up, ignoring the smell of her body

Her body is still warm, but she is motionless and struggling at this time, I don't know if she has lost her breath?

I tried to untie her from the rope, but the dresser on which I was stepping suddenly made an overwhelming click, and my whole body sank instantly.

Under the conditioned reflex, the gravity of the whole person acts on the body of the crazy woman. Then, two seconds later, the rope that hung her from it snapped again.

Then, I fell to the ground with the madwoman in my arms.

I was prepared, and although I was impacted when I landed, I was not injured, and I quickly picked up the crazy woman.

Under the light of the flashlight, I saw her protruding eyes covered with bloodshots, the expression on her face was panicked, and her mouth was slightly open. Around her neck, a sallow screw rope was tied in a dead knot, deep into her flesh.

She hanged herself, how could the rope be tied in a dead knot?

I didn't have time to think about it at this time, so I hurriedly untied the rope, and when I saw that her heartbeat and breathing had stopped, I pressed her chest septum......

Five minutes later, I was sweating profusely and unable to sit on the ground and give up on the rescue.

The mood gradually cooled with the body of the mad woman, and her face turned pale for a while, if she had just ...... I had been a few minutes earlier, and I might have been able to get her back.

But in just a few minutes, a living person turned into a corpse in front of me.

If I hadn't chased the madwoman's soul out of the level, but had rushed straight into the room, maybe ......

But where in this world are so many maybes?

Sometimes a choice is enough to make people regret it for a lifetime.

After a long time, I let out a long sigh, then frowned again.

It was a fantasy that a mad woman would hang herself, and I don't believe she could have thought of such a way to commit suicide in a state of madness. Besides, the dressing table didn't move just now, how did she climb to such a high place and hang herself? The most important point is that the rope around his neck is tied in a dead knot.

It is clear that all of this indicates that she did not hang herself, but that she was roped around her neck and pulled up, and before she died, she clearly struggled violently.

Thinking of this, I looked at the wooden beam with my flashlight.

But before I could see what was on the beam, something hit me the back of the neck.

I turned around and saw a man before I fell unconscious, with a strange and hideous smile on his face, and a look of resentment and madness......
