introduction

(1) The inky night sky exudes a faint salty scent of seawater.

This is a small town on the seaside in the United States.

At this point, the night was late.

The little town fell asleep like a quiet child, and the sea not far away played a beautiful sleep song for it, and every now and then a few lights flashed in the town, and then went out.

Suddenly, a flash of light flashed and brightened the dark night sky.

In an instant, a terrifying tongue of fire spit out from the dazzling strong light, and the tongue of fire quickly engulfed a small villa in the small township, and the raging fire swallowed the entire small villa like a fire beast, and the air smelled of gasoline being burned.

A shrill scream came from the villa, and it was the voice of a middle-aged man and a middle-aged woman: HELP! HELP!

The quiet town was awakened by the sudden upheaval, and the kind-hearted townspeople opened their sleepy eyes and went to the windowsill to see what was so noisy, but what appeared before everyone's eyes was the horrible scene: the flames of the sky, like the terrible fire beasts that came out of hell, they swooped madly on the villa and gnawed at the villa and the life in it.

In a moment, the quiet town sounded the siren, and the good townspeople ran out with buckets and basins of water and poured them on the frantically burning flames, but it was a drop in the bucket and did not reduce the intensity of the fire in the slightest, but the loud noise of the hollowing out seemed to mock the incompetence of the people.

The town immediately became extremely agitated, screaming, shouting, crying...... All sorts of ominous sounds filled the sky over the quiet town.

Buckets of water poured on top of the burning villa, and the wet place was swallowed up by the flames again.

“HELP! HELP! The cries for help still kept coming out of the villa, but as the flames grew louder, the voices became weaker.

There were many brave men and townspeople who wanted to rush into the villa to save people, but when they rushed to the door of the villa, they found that the door of the villa was tightly locked, no matter how they pushed and bumped, but the strong door did not move, and at this time, a burning wooden pillar fell down from above, and immediately pressed several brave young people below, and the other townspeople saw this and exclaimed in surprise and quickly rescued the brave villagers.

“HEPL…… H…… HELP............" Gradually, the sound of cries for help in the villa stopped, and the townspeople who were about to pour water on the flames stopped, and they all pricked up their ears to listen, hoping to hear the sound of cries for help coming from the villa, but after listening to it for a long time, except for the sound of the fire burning with the horn, there was only the whistling wind......

And just then, the characteristic sound of the fire engine came from a distance, but everyone knew that it was too late, too late.

All the townspeople looked up at the dead and burning villa, and there was a look of horror in everyone's eyes, their eyes were now consumed by the raging fire in front of them, and their hearts were thinking of the villa that was engulfed in flames.

Suddenly, there was a muffled thud, and I saw an old woman with yellow hair fall to the ground, her thin body trembling violently, her blue eyes full of fear, and her trembling fingers pointed to the villa that was engulfed in flames, and she cried out in horror: "It's the devil, the devil must have killed them!" )”

At this time, a middle-aged man who seemed to be the mayor of the town picked up the old woman and shouted fiercely: "NO! Don’ttalknonsense,it’sfire! (Shut up!) Don't talk nonsense, it's a fire, it's a fire! )”

Then he picked up a bucket next to him and shouted to the people behind him, "hatareyoulookingat, alsonotquickly!" (What else do you see, don't hurry up and save people!) The townspeople woke up from a dream, and they immediately joined the firefighters to erect the water pipes, and soon a water dragon pounced on the raging flames.

And while everyone was busy fighting the fire, the old woman who was scolded by the mayor shrunk into a ball, trembling and saying, "Ritribution, Ritribution......"

The originally peaceful seaside town was shattered by this sudden and terrible flame, and an ominous premonition emerged in the night sky of the town, which could not be dispersed for a long time.

(2) A rustic church in Hong Kong, quiet and solemn, a sacred place that can calm people's hearts.

Although this church may seem small, there is a constant stream of people coming and going, mainly because there is a kind and wise old priest who can always give a reassuring explanation no matter who has any trouble.

However, today is a different day, the old pastor has few days to continue to teach the gospel to the people due to his terminal illness, and in order to allow the old pastor to ascend to heaven in peace in his last days, all the affairs of the church are taken care of by a new pastor.

The new priest is a middle-aged man, also with a kind face and erudite knowledge, no one knows where he came from, people only know that his surname is Lan, and he is a priest with magical spells. Pastor Lan was very helpful, so everyone affectionately called him Pastor Lan.

Since the church has been taken care of by Pastor Lan, the old pastor can rest quietly at the last moment of his life, but when we move our eyes to the old pastor's room, we find that the old pastor is not lying on the bed waiting for death at this time, but kneeling in front of an icon of Christ, holding the cross in both hands and praying for something.

With a squeak, the old priest's door was pushed open a line, and then it was closed again, and a dark shadow floated into the old priest's room without realizing it.

"You're finally here!" Although the old pastor seems to be a foreigner, he speaks a lot of Chinese, and there is no blunt meaning at all, and it seems that he has been in China for a long time.

The man did not speak, but stood in the shadow of the room, unable to see his form, only a pair of eyes full of hatred, if the eyes were like knives, then it was certain that the old priest had been cut into hundreds of thousands of pieces by this time.

"Where is that thing?" The black shadow finally spat out such a sentence, and it could be seen that his Chinese was a word by word gritting his teeth and popping out, and great resentment emerged in each word.

"My child, let go of the obsession in your heart, that thing is God's thing, and anyone who gets it will be punished by God." The old priest struggled to get up from the ground and looked at humanity in the darkness.

"I don't care! It's mine, and no one can get their hands on it! The black shadow said resentfully, his eyes already welling up with terrifying killing intent.

The old priest sighed, then coughed violently again, and said slowly, "I...... I've given it to a person, too...... Only he can suppress the demonic energy on that thing......"

The figure in the darkness narrowed his eyes and said fiercely, "That person—are you talking about the priest surnamed Lan outside?" ”

The old priest's body trembled violently, and he threw himself on the black shadow as if he were mad, and pleaded: "Son, I don't like you, but please don't touch that thing again, never again, and anyone who has it will die a good death!" Trust me! ”

"Get out of here, sinner!" The shadow jerked the old priest away, then turned and left the old priest's room.

"Uh...... No...... Don't ......" The old priest was kicked and crawled to the floor, but still crawled towards the door, trying to reach for the black shadow that had disappeared.

However, at the sound of a thud, the old priest's trembling hands hung limply on the floor, and his eyes lost their light.

Old priest, he's dead.

(3) The Bauhinia Garden Restaurant is also open late at night, because every night students come here to have supper, and some also sit down to drink a few glasses of wine.

There are good and bad things to wine, but no matter what, there are still people who like them.

No, two student-looking people staggered out of the cafeteria.

There is a distance between the boys' dormitory and the dining hall in Bauhinia Garden, and there is also a small forest that has been rumored in the woods since some time ago, and there are rumors of fire snakes and female ghosts, so that some timid boys dare not walk in the woods late at night.

The two boys in front of them belong to the timid boys, if they are usually placed, they don't dare to walk through this forest at night, because once the night wind blows, the woods will be noisy, which will always make these imaginative college students have some terrible associations.

Maybe that sentence is good, it is called wine to strengthen the bear man's guts, and the two bear people in front of him are strengthened by the effect of alcohol, even if they break into the White House with a gun, they even threaten to let the bright five-star red flag fly above the White House.

"What a fire snake, what a female ghost, it's all a lie, don't you see Lao Tzu is walking into the woods?!" A boy shouted at the top of his voice.

"Even if there really is a female ghost or something, brother...... I...... I'm not afraid, it's a big deal to kill Jian first! Hahahaha! The other boy hugged the neck of the boy next to him and curled his tongue and laughed.

The two of them staggered towards the front, when suddenly a black shadow stood on the path, a black shadow whose shape was indistinct, and the black shadow stood there like ice.

"Hey! What are you! Good Dog ...... Good dogs don't get in the way! The boy squinted and scolded.

But after such scolding, the black shadow remained motionless, but stood there like a stone with its back to the two of them.

The two boys looked at each other, and one of them rushed forward with drunkenness and pushed the black shadow, scolding: "Lao Tzu said...... Say what about you! Did you hear that?! ”

The black shadow was pushed to move, and then slowly turned around, and at this turn, the two drunken boys immediately collapsed to the ground in horror, their pupils were about to burst out, and their lower bodies were loosened, and they immediately became incontinent.

"Hell!" The two screamed in horror, and then ran in the direction of the dormitory.

A strange laugh sounded from the black shadow, only to see the black shadow slowly turn around, what kind of face was that, it was not a human face at all, but just a pumpkin mask, the hollowed-out pumpkin grew directly on the neck, two red lights flashed in the pumpkin's eyes, and with a snort, the black shadow covered his head with a black thing, and then disappeared into the night......
