Chapter 2 Encounters with Ghosts at Night

Soon it was dark, but I was the only one in the house, and everyone else went to the fourth aunt's house to help. I was alone at home and didn't know what to do, and after watching TV for a while, I felt like I couldn't watch it. It's very hot at home, but there is no light outside at night in the countryside, and if you go out, you have nothing to do, and you can't sleep.

So I rested on the mat at home, enjoying the little coolness left on the mat, and the content on the TV was not very good. There was nothing to do, so I looked boredly at the window in my room.

There is a bamboo forest outside this window, there are a lot of bamboos in this bamboo forest, and there are always some unknown animals chirping in it at night, and there are owls calling in the bamboo forest, making that peculiar "goo, goo" sound, when a gust of wind blows, the bamboo leaves will also rattle, and it feels quite mad.

But I was still quite bold at the time, and I didn't have too much fear. At this time, the sound of insects came from the window again, and the cries of such insects often screamed all night in summer nights, but it was not always possible to find which insects were calling.

The movement of the funeral at the fourth aunt's house next door also gradually came, and it seems that the fourth aunt's house must be very lively today, but when I thought that this excitement was because of Brother Qiu Zhi's departure, the feeling of wanting to catch up with the excitement was gone.

At this time, I suddenly noticed that there seemed to be no more insect calls outside the window, which is not normal in a summer night! I looked at the window curiously, and suddenly noticed that there was a shadow floating outside on the window, at first I thought it was a bamboo leaf outside, but after a closer look, it was wrong.

I saw that the shadow had been wandering outside the window, and I didn't hear the sound of the wind, this shadow was definitely not reflected in the bamboo leaves on the window, I suddenly thought of the stories of gods and ghosts I had heard before, and I suddenly felt a shiver on my body. I looked more closely, and saw that the shadow outside the window looked somewhat humanoid and was floating outside the window.

I was still bolder, and at first I just stared at the shadow, and found that the shadow was just floating outside the window and not into the room, which made me even more bold. But the shadow never left, just floating outside the window.

Somehow, I scolded at the shadow outside the window, "I said what are you floating outside!" "That's right, I really cursed, and later I felt a layer of cold sweat on my body when I recalled this experience, which I rarely saw in my subsequent experiences.

As soon as I said this, the shadow outside the window suddenly froze outside, and I clearly felt that the shadow was looking into the room. Then suddenly a hand appeared on the window, and it was completely black, and it looked like a piece of carbon.

After the hand appeared on the window, it moved a little, and then it went straight to me, and the arm was very long, and I felt frightened by this time, but it was too late. The black hand reached out to me and tapped on my forehead, and I fainted.

I don't know how long it took, but I woke up faintly. But I found out that the place I was in was not in my room, but in a strange place, where there was no sun in the sky, but it was cloudy, and some of the clouds looked like the face of a smirking person.

Although there was no sunlight, I could still see the surroundings clearly, it was a wide street, and there were a lot of people walking around, but the strange thing was that these people were all wearing a strange white dress, which I looked familiar with, but I just couldn't remember where I had seen it.

All of these people were walking forward, looking dumbfounded, and the most strange thing was that although these people were walking on the road, there was no sound of footsteps, no one spoke, and there was a dead silence all around.

Although I felt something unusual, there were still these people, and the priority now was to figure out where I was, so I walked up to one of the old men and asked him, "Hello, old man, I would like to ask what kind of place is this?" ”

The old man still walked forward as if he didn't hear me, so I patiently asked again, and raised my voice, in such a quiet environment, my voice sounded very loud, I don't believe that this old man will not respond to my question this time.

This time, the old man heard my words, and turned his head to look at me, but when I looked into his eyes, I was startled, his eyes did not seem to have the slightest light, and his face looked very blue, almost like a dead man.

However, I still comforted myself that it was probably because the old man was older, so he was like this, but then the old man's words almost scared me out of my soul.

After the uncle glanced at me, he squeezed out a blunt word: "Nether! The tone sounded eerie, not at all like a human being, but it didn't matter, what mattered was the two words he spoke: the netherworld.

That means that the place I'm in now is called the underworld! I suddenly remembered why the white clothes worn by those people were so familiar, it turned out that they were wearing shrouds. I looked around in horror and saw that all the people around me were wearing shrouds and walking with blank faces.

I didn't feel a sense of depression, I was so young, how could I come to this place like this, just scolded that ghost, and ended up like this. I was so frustrated, I knew I wouldn't have done it that way. I stepped aside and sat down, and the pedestrians all walked in the same direction, completely ignoring me.

At this time, I found a familiar figure among the many pedestrians - Brother Qiu Zhi, so I quickly stood up and ran to Brother Qiu Zhige's side. However, Brother Qiu Zhige didn't notice me at all, just walked forward with the other pedestrians, and a lot of water flowed out of his body with every step, and there was a long water mark on the road.

I took his hand and shook it and said, "Brother Qiu Zhi, do you remember me?" I'm Xiao Jiu! But Qiu Zhige was completely unmoved, and followed the other pedestrians unconsciously. Seeing Brother Qiu Zhi like this, I shook his hand more eagerly, and kept calling his name.

Brother Qiu Zhi slowly turned his head to look at me, I thought that Brother Qiu Zhi remembered something, but then Brother Qiu Zhi turned around again, ignoring me at all, and Brother Qiu Zhi's hands were so cold to the touch, without the body temperature of a living person.

Since all these ghosts were going in one direction, I turned my heart on it, and simply followed them to see what was ahead.
