Chapter 8: Another Ghost Encounter

I was young, I was bold, I was full of curiosity about caves and the like, and I didn't want to go into the cave, there were many forks in the hole, and at first I was very interested in exploring it, but soon I began to be afraid.

The more I was afraid, the more panicked I became, I couldn't see my five fingers in the hole, I didn't even have a light source on my body, and my mind was full of scenes from Hong Kong ghost movies, so I cried and walked, I didn't know where I went, and I didn't know how it came out in the end.

Anyway, what I can remember is that I was lying on the bed, with a high fever on my body, and I always heard someone talking in my ears, and the voice could not be heard clearly by men and women, and sometimes I would see a little girl with pigtails, blush, and a pale face staring at me at the head of my bed, I was afraid of that girl, and I cried when I saw her, but if someone was around, the little girl would not appear.

My high fever has not gone away, injections and hanging bottles are useless, and my mother is so anxious that she is almost insane. Later, a blind old woman passed by our village, and saw at a glance that I was in trouble, haunted by evil spirits, and my mother rushed to the doctor to ask her to save me, and the old woman hesitated for a long time, and finally agreed after my mother kowtowed several times.

My memory was very vague from this period onwards, and when I was older, my mother told me that the old woman first bathed me in tung oil, and then carried me to the hall by herself, and the windows of the house were covered with black cloths, and no one was allowed to enter, and a day later, she came out with me in her arms.

My mother said that when the old woman came out, she looked like she was many years old, and there was no blood on her face, and my mother wrapped a big red envelope for her, but the old woman waved her hand, just sighed, and said, "Life should be like this, that's it, that's it." ”

I left without even eating, and I haven't seen the old woman since.

The weirdest thing is that my mother found me on an old grave in the back mountain of unknown age, and they didn't see the cave I was talking about.

After listening to me, the old man's eyes were very strange, full of suspicion, and with a kind of abruptness, "So she is not related to your family?" ”

"No, she just passed by our village and didn't know where she came from."

"Are you sure you're telling the truth?"

"It's not wrong, many people in my hometown know about it, let me ask, is there anything wrong with this old woman?"

The old man didn't answer me, he muttered to himself, "Why did the swallow give it to this kid?" I don't understand, it's not related by blood. What the hell are you doing, Swallow? Obviously, if you choose an heir and don't go, why did you give it to outsiders? ”

"By the way, did the old woman leave you any words before she left?" The old man muttered for a while and asked me again.

"I don't remember exactly, but my mother seems to have said that before the old woman leaves, let us meet people with the surname Bai in the future, and we must stay away."

"That's right, it's Wei Yanzi, it must be her."

"What's the argument in that?"

bang

The old man opened his mouth and was about to speak, when there was a sudden loud noise from the window on the left, and I was startled, and the old man motioned for me to stay still and walk slowly towards the window.

The windows of his house were still old-fashioned wooden hinges, two of which were ajar, one of which was shaking slightly, and the sound should have come from that window.

I looked at the old man's thief-like appearance and solemn expression and said, "There must be a wind outside." ”

The old man didn't reply to me, but walked to the window two meters and stopped, turned his back to me and said, "Someone is coming." ”

I was stunned and said, "Old man, you don't talk nonsense, the lights are on in the house, and someone is coming in through the window on the second floor?" ”

Before the word "come" could be spoken, all the window pages were pushed open inward, and with great force, the glass on the window pages against the wall made a cracking sound.

It was pitch black outside, and I couldn't see anything, which was a strong contrast to the bright inside of the house, and I was nervous a lot after the incident in the alley, and there were still people in the house, so I didn't panic too much.

Seeing that the old man was still standing still, I was afraid that something would happen to him, so I went to pull him over, and before I could take two steps, the incandescent lamp above my head suddenly flickered on and off, and there was a snorting sound, and in less than three seconds, the whole room was pitch black.

I immediately broke out in a cold sweat, and I couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth, I really wanted to come to something, and I felt that I was really fucking unlucky, and I could hit a ghost anywhere.

"What the hell is going on, old man?" I asked out loud, not seeing anything at the moment, which made me extremely flustered. The old man didn't answer, I asked again, but there was still no sound, and my heart sank, knowing that I had been calculated.

The old thing followed me out of Hat Mouth Alley, I actually came to his house stupidly, I didn't think about it, but I blamed the little ghost who lived in the Cloud Qilin Diagram was too fierce, which made me overconfident, and I was annoyed when I looked back at it.

I settled my mind, and as the heat in my chest surged, my eyes regained their sight, and as I had guessed, there was no one in the room.

I stood alone in the empty room, and the old man seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, and the wind was blowing slowly, but the body was chilling in the hot weather. I leaned in towards the Grey Mist Kid beside me, ironically fearing him, but now he was the only one who could give me some peace of mind.

The gray mist child is still chaotic, like a two- or three-year-old doll, can only carry out a simple emotional transmission to me, I called out, he was a little unhappy at first, but soon became excited, I can feel that he seems to like the breath around him.

I nervously swept around, for fear that something scary might pop up inadvertently. At this moment, a whimpering sound floated into my ears, this sound at first sounded faint, as if it was infinitely ethereal, and soon the sound became louder and louder, like crying, tactful and poignant, making people in a trance, but very penetrating, giving people the feeling as if even the ears were ringing.

But the gray mist child who was extremely vigorous before was motionless, standing in place in a daze, and my heart was half cold when I saw him like this, and he also sent me emotions - confused emotions. This little guy is my biggest dependence, and if he is gone, I can imagine what will happen to me.

I didn't expect that old man to be so fierce.

It's no wonder that since he knows the cloud-stepping unicorn diagram on my chest and the gray mist child who lives inside, he must have a way to deal with it.

I was so alarmed by the sound of whimpering that I was covered with fine beads of sweat on my forehead. Under the excessive tension, my mind became much more flexible, and I thought about how to get out of this room.

There are two ways to get together, one goes out from the main entrance, and the other jumps down from the window, this is a bungalow, the floor is higher than the average building, and you are likely to break your leg if you go down in a daze. If you go out through the door, you have to go through corridors and stairs, and the experience of Maokou Alley made me strongly resist the narrow passages of the corridor at this time.

After some struggle, I decided to go down through the window and wrap up a plaster cast for a few months. I didn't hesitate any longer, and in a few steps I reached the window, the crackling glass crackling under my feet.

I stretched out my head and looked out the window, and I couldn't help but shudder, the outside was a gray world, more hazy than the inside, as if I had arrived in a hell without any living creatures, there was no light source to be found, and the only street lamp that was on when I came was extinguished.

I kept cheering myself up, and was about to climb out with my hands on the windowsill, but at that moment, the low whimper stopped abruptly, and the sudden silence made me stumble and almost not fall.

I really hate these gods, I just know to hide to scare you, so you don't know where to hit when you clench your fists.

I scolded secretly, re-established my posture and climbed on the windowsill, looking at the ground a few meters high I was a little dizzy, not because of fear of heights, but because I didn't know the bottom of my heart, what should I do if it is useless to go all at once?

No, I have to leave, anyway, it's not a matter of staying in this house, I'll go to the police station after I go down, and I don't believe that the dirty thing can follow me to the bureau.

I made up my mind that I was about to jump down, but there happened to be a rustling sound above my head, the sound was very soft, just like hearing a mouse crawling upstairs in the middle of the night, I subconsciously looked up, only to see a miserable white face floating in the air looking at me, less than half a meter away from me, waist-length long hair fell down and was blown by the yin wind on my face, a pair of eyes without pupils were empty and lifeless.
