104 Haunted Talk (1)
I heard that every school has a haunted house, in an unknown corner, or there will always be an extremely mysterious but eerie house, like the inside, a place that makes people scared and curious.
Recently, there was a sudden viral rumor among the classmates that there was a row of dilapidated yards next to the road near the dormitory, and it was rumored that a classmate in the class had seen something bad there, and she couldn't tell the reason, to the effect that the yard was particularly gloomy.
These sources of information come from Wang Qin, Zhu Min and Zhu Xiaoqi, three little clever ghosts.
It just so happened that it was almost March 3rd, and the "Halloween" was coming, although I don't know if it was true or not, but it successfully attracted the attention of all the students.
This Monday, three girls shared their "magic weapons" in the classroom. Wang Qin is a jade pendant, Zhu Xiaoqi is a talisman, and Zhu Min is a peachwood sword.
Zhu Xiaoqi and Zhu Min are sisters, these two props were begged for by their grandmothers in the temple, and Wang Qin has been wearing them since childhood.
Zhu Min was the biggest victim of this incident, because she said that she saw something strange and was so frightened that night, so her grandmother gave her a peachwood sword to ward off evil spirits, saying that it was the strongest and most effective mana.
It's not that I haven't seen horror movies, but looking at what the three of them said, I can't tell if it's true or false at this time. But I began to reflect, when did superstition enter our world?
The book says that because the ancients did not have a deep understanding of the various emergencies of nature, they could not explain too many phenomena by relying on the scientific knowledge of the time, such as the weather and other phenomena, so they could only pray to the gods to bless the farmers with a good harvest and the health of their livestock.
But nowadays, our production technology is so developed, and science is also developing very well, but why are so many people superstitious?
Some people say that superstition is due to ignorance.
Feudal superstitions, in some ways, do bring distress to our lives.
I have the impression that many children in the village are weaned and left to the elderly to take care of at home, and the young couple goes out to work to earn money to support the family.
But the old man is the main force of feudal superstition, sometimes the child is sick, does not go to the hospital to see a doctor, kneels at home to pray to God and worship Buddha. There are also Taoist priests who invite them to come to their homes to exorcise evil spirits for their children, and even the elderly run to the temple to beg for incense ashes to soak in water for the children......
At that time, because of my young age, I didn't know how to distinguish between good and bad things, I only knew that the old people were elders, and we must have listened to what they said, and we didn't dare to refute it.
There are young couples who can't stand the old man's treatment of their children, and there are other things, for example, they go to the temple to find the Buddha in the temple for anything, so they take the children with them, and they are much safer and more secure.
The saddest thing is that some children have been following the old man for a long time and have also begun to be superstitious, or young couples are also superstitious together, and the whole family is offering to the Buddha and Bodhisattva. In addition, I went to some blind people on the street to tell fortunes for myself or my family, saying that people's luck and fate are decided from the moment they are born.
You say, if it's really that magical, why don't fortune tellers count how many lottery tickets they win when they're fine? Wouldn't he have been a billionaire for a long time, still sitting at this street corner, in the wind and rain, earning five dollars a fortune telling money?
Some problems, thinking about it the other way around, the truth will not work, so feudal superstition is still necessary to remain reasonable.
Therefore, I don't believe the "haunted" that the three of them talked about excitedly and fearfully, how can there be ghosts in the 21st century.
But the truth is so, but since I heard about it, every time I pass by that house, I feel very panicked, believe it or not is one thing, but how to do it is another thing.
Today, Wu Yan and I cleaned the dormitory, because the dormitory had stopped water, so we had to run to the pool next to the dilapidated yard to get water.
Both of them carried a big red bucket and chatted as they walked, and came to the pool next to the courtyard, which was made of cement and covered with moss, and the faucets were rusty, and it looked like it had been used for many years.
Unscrew the faucet, and the water pours down, very clear. In a few moments, we were filled with water.
Just as he was about to leave, Wu Yan pointed to the unchained iron fence gate next to him, and said with a smile: "I heard that it is haunted inside, how about it, do you dare to go in and have a look?" ”
She raised an eyebrow at me, very provocatively funny.
I straightened my waist and said, "In broad daylight, what the hell is going on, of course I dare to go in, do you dare to go in?" ”
She hesitated, straightened her hair, and said, "If you dare to go in, then of course I will dare to go in, go, who is afraid of whom, I am so strong, if there is really a ghost, maybe who bullies whom!" ”
That being said, both of us wanted to go inside and find out, but, after all, it was still a bit risky.
I looked into her big eyes and asked seriously, "You...... Do you have any amulets or something, what if you really have them, and the two of us can't beat them? ”
She laughed out loud and said, "Hehe, weren't you quite bold just now?" Why is this so? I don't have an amulet......"
"Okay, okay, let's go in together, in broad daylight, what are you afraid of?" I said aloud, trying to give myself courage.
The door of the iron fence was ajar, and there was a lock that was tied inside, but it was not completely locked, and I reached into the fence, twisted the big iron lock, and the door creaked open.
The two of us poked our heads out, carefully probing the environment inside.
The yard looks like it has been abandoned for many years.
The walls are full of creepers, and a few big trees are planted in the yard, which are very tall and tall, and the branches are luxuriant, and you will have a fresh and refined coolness when you come in, although the sun is still shining outside, but when you go inside, you can't feel the sunshine.
The bold will say that it is cool, and the timid will only feel eerie.
At this time, my mood was somewhere in between, feeling cool, but also indescribably nervous and scared.
"Are we going to go in? Doesn't it feel like anything special? It's a yard that has been abandoned for many years. I didn't really want to explore it, but I didn't want to be ridiculed by Wu Yan for being cowardly, so I made up a reason casually and said.
"We've just walked to the door, we can go into those rooms and have a look, maybe there's any treasure?" She looked around and said.
This tone is not enough to play, to do a deeper understanding here.
I took a deep breath and flashed some images from horror movies in my head, but I could only bite the bullet and say, "Okay, let's go in and have a look." However, you said that the brick walls of this house are all good, why is there no one living in it? ”
She frowned, thoughtful, and said, "This seems to have a story......
