People often say that at midnight, when you are walking alone on the road, no matter who shouts at you, you should not look back, because behind you, it may not be a person who shouts you, if you are walking, you are suddenly called by your name, you must not look back, these lonely souls and wild ghosts will pick on weak-willed people, so no matter who you meet and shout at you, even if he seduces you, you can't look back.
One night, on a wide road, there was a black car speeding away, this car was driving at great speed, there were three people sitting in the car, in the driver's seat and the co-pilot in front, there was a man and a woman, these two people were talking and laughing, and in the back seat sat a man, who looked twenty-five or sixteen years old, this man could not say, good-looking, but not too ugly.
This man is Lin Fan, Lin Fan is a top student of a university, this time he followed his parents to his hometown, one is to see his seventy or eighty grandmother, and the other is that the pressure of college is too great, take advantage of the summer vacation, come here to relax and relax, and relax casually.
"Well, Lin Fan, if you go to school in a few years, you will graduate!" My father, who was driving in the driver's seat in front of me, said, "Tell my father, what are your plans in the future, is it to continue going to school?" Or do you want to find a place to work? ”
"Well, I don't have any plans yet, definite plans." I sat in the back of the car, looked out the window and muttered: "Over the years, going to college has been really tiring, I really don't want to think about it now, besides, even if I go to work, now college students grab a large number of jobs, and there are still many unemployed, and college students are not easy to find jobs." ”
"Ugh!" Dad glanced at me in the rearview mirror, frowned slightly and said: "You kid, now is not too young, what are you going to do, you should plan in advance, as the saying goes, you should plan ahead, you should now, learn to plan for the future, are you going to continue your education, or stop going to school, go to work, you have to think about it, don't just look at the present, you have to learn to plan." ”
"Oh, Dad, I see, every time you nag up." I said a little impatiently, "How can there be so many things that go according to plan?" As the saying goes, there are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, people have good fortunes and misfortunes, how to say bad things in the future, how can everything be as expected, I want to relax now, I don't want to discuss other things. ”
"You kid......" Dad reprimanded me a little angrily.
"Okay, husband, don't quarrel." Just when Dad was about to say something, Mom suddenly interrupted: "Okay, our son has done a good job, my son has grown up, he is a college student, and the pressure of going to school every day is very high, today we come out to relax, don't put pressure on the child." ”
"What words!" Dad was a little angry and said: "What is the pressure on a child, what is the pressure on a child, children are stress-free, as long as they study hard every day, it's okay, what pressure can there be, not to mention that he is no longer a child, he is already an adult, it is normal to have pressure, I am like how old he is, I have begun to plan my life." ”
"Oops, not everyone is like you." Mom smiled: "The pressure on the child to go to school is enough, and you still put pressure on him, do you want to drive her crazy." ”
......
"Hmph, woman's kindness." Dad said disdainfully: "If there is no pressure, there is no motivation, he needs pressure in order to evolve a steady stream of motivation, since he is my child, he should be able to withstand these pressures, you, are really a woman's kindness." ”
"Husband, people are just a string, they have been tight for a long time, and sooner or later they will not be able to break." Mom glanced at Dad and said, "Okay, don't say it, drive with peace of mind!" ”
"Okay, Xiaofan, don't think about it." Mom then turned to look at me and said, "Hehe, you haven't seen it for a long time, your grandmother, you have to relax this time." ”
"Well, I got it, Mom." I nodded, and then looked out the window.
But it's true, I remember the last time I saw my grandmother, or during the Chinese New Year, how kind she was, half a year has passed in a blink of an eye, this time I can finally see my grandma again, my grandma is very good to me, I used to give me money to spend, every time I passed, I would cook what I liked to eat.
I remember when I was young, when I was five or six years old, my parents sent me to live at my grandmother's house, and they went to do a small business, and my grandmother would tell me about some supernatural events at night.
What I remember very clearly is that my grandmother told a story, that is, don't look back at midnight, my grandmother once said: "When it's midnight, you can not go out without going out, even if you go out, but someone calls you, you must not look back." ”
I looked at my grandmother with immature eyes and wondered, "Why? Why is someone calling you, you can't turn back. ”
"Because, if you look back, you might see something terrible." Grandma explained: "Whenever you walk down the street or even in the jungle at midnight, if someone calls you, don't look back, because if you look back, you may see not people, but ghosts." ”
When I was a child, I was very immature, and I thought that what my grandmother said was true, so I was very scared, and even when I went out at midnight, I asked my grandmother to accompany me, I was really scared, how could I not be afraid, and I was young at that time, and I was even more scared when I heard this.
But now that I'm older, I don't have much fear, because I went out of the village and went to college, and I learned from college that it's not true, it's just a superstition, and even I still feel ridiculous for my previous naivety.
After all, there can't be ghosts in this world, I was too young at the time, and I was actually scared by my grandmother's words, and now that I think about it, it's really a little funny, and I laughed unconsciously.
"Well, Xiaofan, what are you laughing at here?" Mom saw me smiling and asked.
"Hehe, nothing. I just remembered a story my grandmother told me when I was a child. I smiled and said, "At the time, I thought it was true, so I was so scared that I even had to go to the toilet with my grandmother, so I dared to go, but now that I have been exposed to the outside, I know that those are just superstitions, so I feel very funny." ”
"Ugh."
Mom looked at me in amazement.
"What you're saying is, don't look back at midnight!" Dad said as he drove the car at this time.
......
"Well, Dad, you've heard of that too?" I looked at my dad a little confused.
"Yes, of course I did." Dad drove and said: "Your grandmother, not only have I told you, I have also heard it, it is said that it seems that in the past, in our village, there was a young man, he went out to buy things at midnight, just finished shopping, and when he was about to go home, the sky was dark at this time, and there was no one outside, and at this time, he vaguely heard the sound of low breathing behind him. ”
"At that time, the man was very scared." Dad continued: "He ran desperately in the direction of home, but just a few steps after running, a gloomy and ethereal cry came from behind him, and this cry came from behind him, which made the man's body pause, and he stopped here, and then the gloomy and ethereal voice continued to come behind him. ”
"This man, his whole body is trembling, and his scalp is starting to tingle." Dad said: "Suddenly at this time, the man couldn't help but turn his head, saying that it was too late and that was fast, just when the man turned his head to look over, he suddenly saw a man standing behind him, the man's tongue stretched out, his face was white, and the man was so frightened that he hurriedly ran home, and every two days later, the man died mysteriously at home, and when he died, his eyes were round, as if he was very surprised. ”
"Uh, this, this is terrifying." Mom trembled and said, "I didn't expect this story to be so terrifying, Mom can still tell what a terrifying story." ”
"No, it's not a story." Dad shook his head and said, "Mom, he said, this dead man is a man in our village back then, this man died a very terrible death, so the villagers said that this man must have turned around at midnight, so he attracted evil ghosts." ”
"Ugh!" I looked at my dad a little surprised and said, "Have you seen it?" ”
"I haven't seen it, I was very young at the time." Dad shook his head and said: "I haven't seen it, these are all what your grandmother told me, whether it's true or not, no one knows, so your grandma often warns that it's best not to go out at midnight, even if you want to go out, no matter who calls you behind at night, don't look back." ”
"Ugh."
I looked out the window a little stunned, thinking about what my dad said, and I was really very strange, is this true? Don't look back at night, is that true? But even if my grandmother says something, I still don't believe it, after all, no matter what you do now, you have to pay attention to science, and if there is no scientific explanation, how can it be true.
"Hmm." Mom saw that something was on my mind, and said with a smile: "Okay, silly boy, don't think about it, how can this be true, even if there is a real ghost, he will be scared away when he sees me and your father." ”
"Ugh." I nodded and said, "I'm fine, Dad, are we almost there?" ”
Dad looked around, suddenly his eyes lit up, he saw the small village in front of him, and said, "It's here, it's just ahead, let's drive in now!" ”
After saying that, Dad drove the car and walked into the small village, and now it is eight o'clock in the evening, and everyone in this village is almost asleep, and the whole village seems to be unusually quiet.
