Chapter 52: Encountering a Ghost Child

We discussed there until the night, and finally found a person who could talk, and went to my mother's house to deliver the letter, and I told my uncle that I would go back to the room first, and get ready, and I would have to give it tomorrow. After saying goodbye to my uncle's house, I went back by myself, my uncle's house is full of old mansions, these old houses are not inhabited, ruined walls, the scalp is fried when I come here during the day, and it is even more terrifying at night. So at night, the street is completely empty at all.

I walked down that street, and there was silence all around, and in front of me came to a landlord's house, of course, a landlord a long time ago, and then because I offended Xiangma, the whole family was killed, and then the house was uninhabited, and became a deserted courtyard. The countrymen say that the deserted courtyard is deserted, the little ghost loves it the most, the house is not lived in for three years, there will be other things living in it, the landlord's deserted yard, no one has lived in it for decades, some people say that they often hear movement in that yard, and they don't know whether it is true or false.

I thought about it in my heart, and walked to the door of the landlord's house, the door of his house had long been taken home by the neighbor who lacked firewood to burn the pot, only a gatehouse remained, there was a crescent moon in the sky, and the shadows shone brightly, it seemed that the door was extremely strange, and there were stone chairs at the door, and the horse stone, which seemed to narrate the glory of the time. The years are merciless, and sooner or later this yard will be swallowed up by wild grass.

I walked to the courtyard and involuntarily glanced at the courtyard, there was nothing in the yard, and when I looked in from the street, there were many trees inside, which was strange and gloomy, and made people feel uncomfortable. So I decided not to watch it, just hurry up and go back to the view. So I quickened my pace, walked forward, and had just taken two steps when suddenly I cried.

This cry is the cry of a child, crying for no reason in this place, making my scalp tingle for a while, I involuntarily looked back, I looked back, and found a child sitting at the door of the landlord's house, although the moonlight was not very bright, but I could see clearly, this child was wearing a red belly pocket, and was sitting there crying heartbreakingly. It's not a good thing to meet such a child crying in the middle of the night, I thought of this and quickly turned my head and left, but after taking two steps, I couldn't stop blaming myself, Master often taught us, so that we can't see death without help, I can't just leave.

So I stopped, looked back at the landlord's door, and saw that the child was still crying there, and I was moved by compassion, thinking that maybe this child was really someone's child, and ran out by himself in the middle of the night. At this time, Zhuang is sparsely populated, and there may be monkeys and the like, and if a child meets a monkey, he will not die. I thought of this, so I hurried over, and just as I was about to get to the child, suddenly the child stopped crying and looked at me with a blank eye.

I went to the child, looking at the child's appearance, the child looks very cute, in fact, since I opened the eyes of the sky, I feel that I can see things much clearer than before, especially at night, as long as there is a little light, I can see almost, much stronger than ordinary people's eyesight. I saw this child with a tiger's head, big eyes, very good-looking, a small nose, red lips, a round face, and an embroidered red hood on his body, on which the embroidered words seemed to be a hundred years old.

The child looked at me and stared at me for a while, then smiled at me, laughing and shouting, "Brother." ”

Then he opened his little mouth there and giggled, and when he laughed, a pair of small dimples were revealed. I looked at this cute child and liked it indescribably, so I said to the child, "Whose child are you?" Why do you look so rare? ”

As soon as I said this, the child, who was still happy, suddenly opened his small mouth and began to cry, crying while saying that he could not go home. This cry was so pitiful that I felt sorry for the child for a while, so I said to the child, "Little brother, shall I send you home?" ”

When the child heard this, he stopped crying again, stretched out his hands, and said in a milky voice: "Okay, my brother carried me home." ”

I smiled and said to the child, "That's good, I'm carrying you, tell me what your last name is?" What's your dad's name? “

The child looked at me pitifully and shook his head vigorously, and I complained to myself, how could such a young child know what his father's name was, so he said, "That's it, I'm carrying you, you tell me where your home is, okay?" ”

The child nodded again and again, saying thank you brother, the child's voice was very sweet, don't look at most two or three years old, but very good at saying, I carried the child, the child pointed to the direction of my aunt's house and said, "Brother, there is my home." ”

I was a little strange at the time, there were not many families in that area, except for my aunt, who was a little younger, the others were all in their fifties and sixties, and I had not heard of anyone with children. After thinking about it, maybe this child, coming out in the middle of the night, must be scared stupid, I don't know my home, go to the front and let the child think slowly, anyway, Zhuang is so big, slowly look for it.

After walking more than a dozen steps, I arrived at an alley, I carried the child on my back and found that something was wrong, it was said that carrying things should be heavier and heavier, but I was carrying this child, but I felt lighter and lighter. What's going on? I muttered to myself, and the more I walked, the more I felt that something was wrong, and then I felt a chill in my neck, as if the child was deliberately blowing on my neck. I seem to have experienced that kind of coldness somewhere, it is a cool air that penetrates the bones, as if it can be cold to the bones.

This is even more wrong, even if the child is naughty and blows, but the air should be hot, how can it be so cold? This is when I suddenly remembered three years ago, when I was playing cards with my two junior brothers, I met the crying of the baby on the side of the road in the persimmon forest, and I also felt as if someone was blowing in my neck. When I thought about this, my head was big, I couldn't be carrying a ghost on my back, right?

At this moment, the weight on my back suddenly disappeared, as if it had disappeared all at once, what happened? I quickly looked back, and my heart jumped wildly at this look, in fact, no matter how bold you are, you will be afraid of the sudden horror of things, but people's psychological tolerance is different, some will be scared to death, and some will calm down and find a way to deal with danger.

When I turned my head, I happened to face the child, the child at this time was no longer a child, I saw that the hair on his head, some of it had rotted clean, revealing Sensen's white bones, the skin and flesh on his face had also dried up, and it was tightly attached to the bones, and his eyes were deeply sunken into his sockets, and those eyes were blood-red in color, emitting a strange light, and the corners of his eyes were bleeding, and his mouth was open, and his mouth showed four small sharp teeth, lying on my shoulder, and his eyes were staring at me tightly.

After he and I looked at each other, he suddenly opened his big mouth and cried, the mouth couldn't be wider at this time, as if the whole mouth was cut by a knife, to the root of both ears, a terrible cry, sounded in my ears, that cry made my heart extremely uncomfortable, and the whole heart involuntarily jumped up. I was supposed to do a good deed and wanted to send this child home, but suddenly I became a ghost, and I had nothing to do. Now we have to find a way to deal with this child, otherwise even if I don't get scared to death, I will make his cry unbearable.

What to do, I reached out and grabbed the little ghost behind my back, trying to grab the little ghost and throw him out, but I reached out and grabbed nothing, I looked back, there was nothing behind my back, and my heart was happy, and suddenly the other side was cold again, as if the little ghost was blowing cold air on the other side of me. I quickly turned my head to the other side, and sure enough, the little ghost was lying on my shoulder on the other side, blowing into my neck. At this time, I am no longer afraid, when people are afraid to a certain extent, their hearts will be calm, although I was afraid just now, but after all, I experienced there, so I was not so scared just now, I reached out to the little ghost and grabbed it again, this time it was the same as just now, I didn't catch anything, and I wanted to know where the little ghost was hiding? At this time, the little ghost lay in the middle of my back and cried again.
