Chapter 21: Dreams, Shadows
The story takes place in a small village in a remote area, in a small basin, where information is relatively closed.
The film begins with a seven or eight-year-old child facing the camera, and a pair of eyes seem to be staring at us through the screen.
Immediately after that, a woman in her thirties and forties was working in the kitchen and yelled at the child, "Xiaotian, it's time to eat!" ”
Xiaotian nodded and turned away from the front of the screen, but then, a small red ball slowly rolled out from under the screen, and there seemed to be children laughing in his ears.
After two days of intense mental tension, watching this kind of pediatric horror movie in front of me, I really didn't take it seriously, I just didn't know why, and I started to get sleepy again.
Lin Momo pouted and said, "Don't sleep!" It's for you to watch a movie, not for you to sleep! ”
I nodded vigorously, "Okay, good." ”
Still, I fell into a deep sleep within seconds.
Lin Momo on the side frowned, as if she was aware of something, and then closed her eyes and fell asleep.
It was a remote mountain village exactly like in the film, and when the fog cleared in front of me, I found myself standing on a suspension bridge.
The location is a valley with a rushing river below.
Didn't I just watch a movie? Why did you suddenly come to this hellish place?
I had a rare reaction that it was supposed to be a dream.
On one side of the drawbridge is the deserted mountains, and on the other side is the country cottage that can be seen as far as the eye can see.
I walked towards the country cottage on the other side of the drawbridge when a voice suddenly sounded behind me.
When I turned my head, I realized that it was Lin Momo following me.
I was a little surprised and said, "How could I dream of you?" ”
Who knew that Lin Momo's face was annoyed: "What do you mean how can I dream of you?" This was not a dream in the first place! ”
Not a dream in the first place?
Then Lin Momo definitely didn't appear in my dream, since it didn't appear in my dream, how did she follow me?
Before I could ask, Lin Momo explained: "You are haunted by a bad breath, and you are nervous two days ago, so it is easy to fall into hallucinations. ”
I'm quite speechless, not long after this first difficulty has passed, and the second difficulty has come? It really won't give me a chance to breathe.
"So what the hell is it this time?"
Lin Momo shook her head: "How do I know, let's go to the front first, this evil aura is not as fierce as the red-clothed ghost last time, I think it should be some kind of little ghost." ”
The suspension bridge was narrow and only allowed one person to pass, so Lin Momo and I walked one after the other.
Although the height was treacherous, I was very calm until a strong wind suddenly blew by the drawbridge.
I felt as if someone had pushed me so hard that I stumbled on my feet and almost lost my footing.
Lin Momo was no better, and her screams continued to echo in the empty valley.
No matter how you look at it, the wind is deliberately blowing, but fortunately, the wind comes and goes quickly, Lin Momo and I hurried through the suspension bridge.
In front of it is a hillside with a slope of about 20 degrees, and there is a path on the ground, sparsely growing some wild grass.
Look at it, no one has been here for a while.
Climbing over the hillside, there is a dense forest, and you can vaguely see a path leading to the village in the distance.
It's just that there is no movement in the village, and some bird monsters are quarping from time to time, giving people a sense of extreme desolation.
I said to Lin Momo, "Can you find a way out?" ”
Since it's a little ghost, it shouldn't be troublesome.
Lin Momo smiled and said, "It's easy to get out, you just jump to the river below and fall to your death." ”
"But don't blame me for not reminding you, it will hurt you if you jump and fall to your death."
"Besides, even if you go out now, that little imp will still haunt you."
I had a headache, it was really unlucky, in that case, it was better to go to the village first.
The two of us walked quietly along the path to the village, and from a distance it seemed that there was no movement in the village, but when we walked in, we could still see some people sitting at the entrance of the village.
The group was chatting.
"Don't go out at night lately."
"What's wrong?"
"Haven't you heard about what happened in Xiaotian's house recently?"
As soon as the two of us approached, the villagers immediately stopped thinking and their faces were secretive.
I made eye contact with Lin Momo, and then I stepped forward and said, "I'm sorry everyone, we are here to travel around here, and we got lost with the tour group, and we finally found your village, can you let us rest?" ”
The group looked at us, still vigilant, and one of the old men stood up and said, "If you don't dislike it, come and rest with me for the night?" ”
I nodded and said, "Okay, thank you then." ”
The group seemed to be extremely dissatisfied with the old man's approach, and looked at the old man with unkind eyes.
After we had followed the old man far away from the group, I asked thoughtfully, "Uncle, it seems that the people in the village don't welcome us very much?" ”
The uncle who walked in front of him bent his waist and said a little lifelessly: "It's none of your business, just don't ask......"
We followed him to a wooden house, and the uncle told us, "You can rest here for the night, but it's better not to go out at night." ”
Don't go out at night, this is the second time I've heard them mention it, and I've noticed that.
Could it be that there will be some changes here at night?
I didn't ask rashly, and the uncle saw that the two of us had no questions, so he turned around and left.
Lin Momo and I were left standing outside the door with wide eyes, and Lin Momo said, "What do you see, I haven't seen a beautiful woman, go in and have a look." ”
Pushing open the door, there were two beds made inside, and some miscellaneous items were arranged, except for a particularly strong smell of dust, which did not seem to be unusual.
The two of us entered the house, closed the door, and I asked Lin Momo, "Does what happened here have anything to do with reality?" ”
Lin Momo said: "Since it is a little ghost's hallucination, it has more or less something to do with him, so pay attention to what happened here." ”
"When did I get entangled by that little ghost, and why didn't I feel it at all?"
Lin Momo said: "Well, it's hard to say, maybe it's a little ghost in the movie theater, of course, it doesn't rule out that we just went shopping." ”
I thought for a while and said, "Then this place looks like a village in the movie "Ghost Baby", could it be that we were pulled into the movie by the little ghost?" ”
Lin Momo glanced at me and said, "Do you think the little ghost is so capable, this is an illusion." ”
She paused for a moment, and then said, "The main thing is that you have tattooed the statue of the Tang monk on horseback now, which is especially easy to attract ghosts." ”
It's a statue of a Tang monk riding a horse again, and before I could sigh, I saw a handprint suddenly appear in the window behind Lin Momo, although it was fleeting, but it was real.
