Chapter 8: The Paper Man in the Coffin

If you want to say that I was cheated by someone, from my grandfather's words, I can guess that it must be Grandma Wang who cheated me.

But saying that my uncle's family was calculated, I can't think of who did it, could it be that all this was specially designed by Grandma Wang?

If that's the case, then Grandma Wang is too terrifying, right?

Grandpa didn't want to say much about it, and he brought me to Westinghouse to explain what had happened during his absence.

Grandpa left me a handful of incense and went out.

He told me that I can't go out these days, and every day after the sun sets, I order three sticks of incense to be inserted in the middle of the yard, and if these three sticks of incense are burned out steadily, I will be very safe, and I can sleep honestly.

If the three incense sticks had not burned out and had been extinguished halfway, then I would have to lie down in the coffin in the West House and hide, and no matter what happened, I would not be able to get out of the coffin.

I was stunned when I heard this, I lit incense and slept in a coffin, why is it so mysterious?

Grandpa hadn't said anything about it before, how did he know that?

I feel like the whole world has changed since I went out with my cousin.

On the first night of my grandfather's outing, I lit three incense sticks in the yard and stared nervously at the flickering incense sticks.

What my grandfather said when he was about to leave made me feel panicked, but at the same time, all kinds of questions kept swirling in my mind, what danger was there that I had to hide in the coffin to escape?

As a result, nothing happened, and the three incense sticks burned out smoothly.

I let out a long breath and went back to my room to sleep.

These days, I have been suffering from a fever and have not been able to rest well, but when I got home, my body was cured, and I fell asleep almost with my eyes closed when I went to bed.

For two days in a row, nothing happened, and my heart slowly calmed down.

In the evening of the third day, when the sun had just set, I lit three sticks of incense as usual, planted them in the courtyard, and waited for the incense to burn out, and I went to bed early.

Who knows, when these three incense sticks are halfway burned, they will suddenly all be extinguished!

I suddenly lost my sleepiness, to say that some of the incense was damp and failed to burn out, it is not inexplicable, but the three incense sticks were extinguished at the same time, something is wrong!

Staring at the extinguished incense, my heart chilled, and my heart jumped inexplicably.

Thinking of what my grandfather said when he was about to go out, I didn't care much, so I quickly ran into the West House and got into his coffin.

The lid of the coffin had always been hidden, and when I got in, I moved the lid of the coffin and covered myself tightly.

In the darkness, I was in a daze, and I couldn't help but regret that I didn't have a flashlight with me.

The coffin was not empty, there was still a person tied with white paper, I remembered the old incident when I was lying in a coffin with Chen Ying's corpse, and put the paper man on my body, which can be somewhat psychologically comforting.

I've never seen this paper figure before, so I guess it was put in by my grandfather when he left, and I don't know what it was for.

Minutes and seconds passed, and I lay in the stuffy coffin, my head was blank, I couldn't sleep, and I didn't dare to sleep, so I could only slowly pass the time.

I don't know how long it took, but suddenly there was a sound of footsteps outside.

Who's coming?

I was the only one in the whole courtyard, it was very quiet, and the sound of footsteps from far and near made my heart lift.

The footsteps stopped next to the coffin, and I lay quietly, not daring to move, my heart almost jumping out of my throat.

After the footsteps stopped, there was no other sound, which made me wonder if I was hallucinating.

Knock knock!

Suddenly, someone knocked on the coffin!

My eyes widened violently, and I couldn't help but hold my breath, and my whole body tensed tightly, for fear of making a little noise.

Knock knock!

The tapping sounded again, but in a different direction.

Then, there was silence again.

I couldn't hold it anymore, I opened my mouth and breathed heavily, the coffin was already very hot, and there was no place for ventilation, I lay in it, I only felt as if my chest was pressed on a grinding plate, and I was about to lose my breath.

At this moment, there was a creak, and the coffin lid was removed by a small crack!

I froze suddenly, and my whole heart fell into the abyss...... I was discovered!

I saw a shriveled hand sticking out of that small slit, like the claws of a dried corpse!

"Baby, why are you hiding? It's very stuffy in the coffin, the old woman asks you to come out and breathe! ”

The sound was like two pieces of sandpaper pressed together...... It's Grandma Wang!

How could it be her?

Could it be that the person who is going to harm me is really Grandma Wang?

No, if she wanted to hurt me, why did she let me go when she had the opportunity three days ago?

Time didn't allow me to think too much, and Grandma Wang's shriveled hand like a claw had already reached into the coffin and began to grope for it.

I didn't dare to take a mouthful, the whole person couldn't help but tremble, and I couldn't help but think of the gossip said by those people in the nearby village, Shangtang's Wang Grandma cultivated an evil way, she would use the practice of newborn babies, and liked to eat people's hearts raw......

These nonsense on weekdays are now giving me boundless pressure.

Who knows, Grandma Wang grabbed the paper figure on top of my body, and her shriveled hands were like animal traps caught in the prey, and they were closed tightly!

"Baby, don't panic, Grandma won't hurt you...... Come out! ”

With a loud bang, the lid of the coffin was suddenly pushed open, and Grandma Wang also exerted her strength at the same time, and pulled the paper figure on my body out of the coffin!

What's the situation? There is such a big difference between a big living person and a paper figure, how can she be confused?

I couldn't help but peek out of the coffin, only to see Grandma Wang pulling the paper figure and laughing, that smile was really like the civet cat she raised......

No, Grandma Wang is wrong!

Only then did I see clearly that Grandma Wang's face was pale, as if she had smeared the white ash of the wall, while her lips were red and black!

The scariest thing is her eyes!

In Grandma Wang's eyes, the eyeballs were not black and white, but green, and even shot out a green light about two or three fingers long!

Is this still human?

Could it be that Grandma Wang has become a ...... Ghost?!

"Baby, that's right, don't run, don't run, go back with me, naturally have your benefits...... What is this? How dare you lie to me! ”

Grandma Wang tore the paper man, turned around and walked towards the door, and she didn't know where the loophole was, she found that something was wrong with the paper man, and suddenly began to go crazy!

The two hands covered with old age spots have now completely turned into two sharp claws, and the nails are sharp and sharp, like ten small daggers!

With a wave of both hands, the white paper man was torn to pieces by Grandma Wang!

It's over, I'm ...... I'm afraid I won't be able to run away!
