Xia Xia let go of me, walked to the table, gently wiped the table with her fingers, frowned slightly, and said, "The table is wet." ”

I shrunk back, looked around in the dark and said, "Is it too humid here, the wind is blowing?" ”

Xia Xia said: "Humidity can't blow this kind of wetness, and—" She picked up the candlestick, and said, "The bottom of this candlestick is also wet, and the candlestick is ice, so it stands to reason that we have been going from the outside to the inside, and the candlestick should be warm after being lit for a while." ”

I stared at Xia Xia and said, "What's going on?" ”

Xia Xia shrugged his shoulders and said, "Who knows—but—Sister Fei, do you think that this candlestick is so familiar, is it quite similar to those on our porch?" ”

I didn't dare to look at it seriously, for fear of seeing something strange, and said, "The candlesticks are almost the same, what can be like them?" ”

This summer, there is no end, even an ordinary candlestick is being studied for half a day, and this is not finished until the middle of the night!

Xia Xia held the candlestick but didn't let go, the swaying candlelight illuminated her face very gloomy, she looked up and looked around, frowned, and kept asking me: "Sister Fei, you say, does this house look weird?" ”

My heart is getting colder and colder, what's going on with this Xia Xia, as if she keeps poking my heart with words, she doesn't know that I'm scared now?

I swallowed and said, "What's the blame? Aren't all houses the same? Doors and windows, tables, wall chairs, beds. "When it's over, is she going to start studying the layout of the house again?

Xia Xia nodded and said: "That's right, the houses are almost the same, but I think this house feels very strange, it has been deserted for so long, and it is spotless, as if someone has specially cleaned it, who do you say will clean such a room?" Is it - does anyone live here? ”

Suddenly, I felt as if there were a lot of eyes around me, staring at me gloomily......

Xia Xia put the candlestick back on the table, carried the lantern we brought and said, "Sister Fei, otherwise let's go to the side room and have a look-" Speaking of this, she walked to the room on the left, and nudged it, and the door actually opened, she glared at me in surprise and smiled, and said, "This door is not trivial, it seems that this is a bedroom." ”

I swallowed, fearing that a white, bone-like hand would reach out of the dark door and pull Xia Xia in......

Xia Xia pushed the door wide open, and he could only vaguely see a rough idea, a small cloud of dust came from the gloomy scene, and there was an old smell of medicine.

Xia Xia waved his hand and said, "Why is it so clean outside, and the bedroom is full of dust?" ”

I looked inside, and the room seemed to be facing south, and now that the sun was setting, there should have been a faint light coming in, but the room was dark and dead, because the window, which should have been large, had somehow been nailed with some planks, as if it was blocking something from entering.

At this moment, the door may have opened, and the wind came from north to south, and the window with the nailed wooden planks suddenly poured into the wind, and the curtains that were hidden on the side were blown away with a loud pull!

I took a sharp step back, lest the curtain would shake off some ghost.

"Sister Fei?" Xia Xia looked at me suspiciously.

I repelled and said, "Forget it, I—I'm not going in, the wind is blowing my head a little." I'll take it easy. ”

Xia Xia pouted and looked at me and said, "Okay, you stay there, I'll come out when I go around - don't be afraid, how can you hide anything in such a small room!" ”

My heart trembled, this Xia Xia is deliberately trying to scare me, right?

I didn't dare to go back to the small hall by myself, and I didn't dare to look inside the room, but I just stood at the door in a panic, listening to Xia Xia's footsteps pacing around-

What are you looking at? How do you think it takes so long? This summer, won't you be afraid? And why is her footsteps getting heavier and heavier, and she also stepped out of the echo, doesn't she feel abrupt?

I was a little irritable, gritted my teeth and endured fear, leaned over and said to Xia Xia in the room, "Okay, no-"

Half a sentence, stuck in my throat -

Because I can't say the following half of the sentence anymore—

I looked at Xia Xia and my eyes widened-

Xia Xia was squatting on the edge of the bed in the depths of the room, holding a lantern, curiously looking at something under the bed-

The cold hairs on my whole body instantly stood up!

Because of that footsteps, the footsteps I thought were from Xia Xia, they kept ringing!

Xia Xia is obviously squatting motionless, where did the footsteps come from?!

Xia Xia stood up when she saw me, pointed to the bottom of the bed and said, "Sister Fei, there's a box here......"

All of a sudden, the footsteps were gone, only the sound of the wind outside, whimpering from time to time.

I didn't dare to turn my head to look at anything, fear had knotted my tongue—

Xia Xia walked to the door, looked at me and said, "Sister Fei won't be scared for a while, right?" There's a box there, it seems to contain a lot of things, and I can't pull it out by myself, and I want you to come and help me, so you can't make a sound. ”

I knotted my tongue and said strangely, "You called me?" When did you call me? ”

Xia Xia inexplicably interjected her waist and said, "It's called, I can hear my own echo wandering back and forth, why didn't I call?" Half a day shouldn't be what happened to me?. ”

When did Xia Xia call me? I was at the door for a long time, and all I heard was her footsteps swirling inside......

But that footstep is not Xia Xia's......

I didn't dare to say anything, tears were already oozing from the corners of my eyes, and I pulled Xia Xia out and said, "Go back, I don't want to stay here anymore." ”

Xia Xia let out an "ah" in disappointment, and reluctantly looked at another room with a closed door: "There is another place that I haven't seen, doesn't it mean that the mother and son lived here back then, I guess this room is the child's, and the other room should be the widow's, I finally came to visit, and left without looking?" ”

She looked into the room for a moment, and I quickly stepped forward and pulled her back, for fear that the unknown inside would take her away from me! I could almost imagine that in the widow's room, in front of the gloomy dressing table, there was a skinny ghost, with long hair and sharp nails, and strange red lips smeared with bloody lip grease, smirking and waiting for us to enter! Waiting to scare me to death!

Got off the porch, and the wooden bell on the eaves suddenly rang in the wind again—

It's strange, when we were in the house just now, it didn't make a sound, but as soon as we came out, it rang - could it be - some hand that we couldn't see was playing with them, right?

Xia Xia turned his head to look at the west, the sky was already dark, and he didn't even have time for the sunset, and gray clouds shrouded the sky over the western plains.

Hurry up, the smell here, the wind here, I'm going crazy!

The lantern candlelight tugged at us, and our shadows were very long, and I suddenly stopped, and felt as if something had been slapped on my back—I had been scared of ghosts in the alley before, but this feeling was different, because I felt that the thing that slapped me was so light and close, as if it were—as if someone was walking behind us, and my shirt or long hair had accidentally brushed my back.

"What's wrong? ——”

"Shhh

But—

But I heard, as if there was nothing, somewhere behind the atom, someone was laughing, hehehe...... Huh-huh...... It's so light and so light, so light that it doesn't look like a human can send it out, it crumbles with the wind, but I can hear it clearly.

I held Xia Xia's hand, I don't know if I was trembling too much, or her hand was also shaking, in short, my hand was shaking so much that I couldn't stop, shaking so much that my shoulders were numb - I swallowed my saliva and said in a dumb voice: "Xia Xia, you- Did you hear any sound?" ”

Xia Xia stared at the hand that was clenched by me and said, "I didn't hear it—Sister Fei, what did you hear?" ”

"I—I heard someone laughing—there it was—" I didn't dare look back, and only squinted my eyes at the place where there was a sound.

Xia Xia bit her lip, looked in that direction, and said, "No-I didn't hear the sound-Sister Fei heard it wrong?" ”

"Maybe......"

Xia Xia pulled me out, my legs and feet had begun to weaken, that strange laughter kept ringing out from time to time, we were obviously walking out, this sound did not disappear, but got closer and closer, more and more clear, as if it had been following behind us, and something slapped on my back, and the force was getting stronger and stronger!

I was so scared that I was about to jump to my feet, so I shrank back suddenly, and raised my voice: "Xia Xia, that laughter is getting closer and closer!" ”

Xia Xia was taken aback by me and said, "What laughter?" I didn't hear it, Sister Fei! Don't scare me! ”

I was scared, really scared, so scared that tears oozed out of my eyes: "I really heard laughter, a woman's laughter, followed us all the time, as if it was right behind me, behind me, is there something behind me-"

Xia Xia looked at me like this, no matter how bold she was, it was a little bold, not to mention this already weird Xihuayuan, she swallowed her saliva, gasped, slowly, slowly leaned over, and looked behind me-

But—

I didn't think of that-

Xia Xia leaned over-

Behind her stood a man—

The man was cloaked in a cloak, tilting his head to look at me—

"Sister Fei, there's nothing behind, you want to pull more!" Xia Xia sighed and returned to his place.

My eyes widened—

When Xia Xia turned back, there was suddenly a pale child behind the body that had been tilted to block it, and it seemed to be led by the person who had been blocked by Xia Xia's body on the side, and it also maintained the same standing posture, tilting its head, pulling the corners of its mouth and laughing at me, giggling, hee-hee-hee, and red blood and tears crawled out of its eyes-

I rolled my eyes and fell. Yes, for me, the most powerful weapon against these fears is to roll my eyes and faint, so that I don't have to hear or see anymore, and I don't have to tremble physically and mentally.
