【Fanwai】Seaside cottage
Late at night, the beach is dark and quiet, and the tide is accompanied by the cool sea breeze "rustling", and it swells on the beach again and again. There is a pair of young lovers on the beach, strolling and chatting in the faint starlight.
"Huh?" Han Wenwen suddenly pointed to the front and said, "Did you see it?" There looks like there's a wooden house in front of it, and there's a light! Jiang Wei looked in the direction of her finger, and saw a small wooden house lying lonely on the beach not far in front, with faint lights shining inside.
"It's funny, I didn't think it would be inhabited here! Anyway, we're tired from walking, so let's just go somewhere to rest. ”
Han Wenwen smiled and said, "What kind of person do you guess the owner of this wooden house will be?" ”
The door to the hut was left open, as if waiting for their arrival. The room was very simple, with a candle burning on a low square table, and an old man with gray hair sat beside it, half of his body hidden in the shadow of the candlelight.
Jiang Wei said politely: "Hello, uncle! May we rest at your place for a while? ”
The old man sat still, looked at them in amazement, and beckoned them to sit down at the table.
"Don't you dare to play on the beach at such a late hour?"
Jiang Wei smiled and said, "What are you afraid of? Uncle, do you mean ghosts? We never believed in these things. ”
Han Wenwen was looking at the environment in the wooden house with great interest, and Wen Yan took over the topic and said: "Not only do I not believe in ghosts, but I also like to listen to ghost stories, which is very exciting!" Do you know any ghost stories, can you tell us about them? ”
The old man looked at them for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay." So I'll tell you a ghost story about what happened on the beach. ”
The old man looked down and pondered for a moment as if he were reminiscing about the past, and then said slowly, "Two years ago, it was also such a late night......" He glanced up at the two of them, and continued: "There are four young men who are as bold as you come to this beach......
The only one with a flashlight among the four is called Zhao Jie, the one who walks on the left is called Jia Liangyu, and the two girls in the middle are called Xu Lingxin and Zheng Zhilan, who are the shampoo girls they met in the hair salon.
Jia Liangyu said: "Xu Lingxin, your skin is so white, so white that it is so dazzling in the dark night!" ”
Xu Lingxinjiao smiled and said: "Your mouth is so sweet, it's just that the stars in the sky didn't deceive you!" ”
Zheng Zhilan pretended to be angry and said, "What, it's just that Xu Lingxin's skin is white, is mine very bad?" ”
Zhao Jie hurriedly said: "No, your skin is whiter, shinier than this flashlight, just like an elf on the beach at night!" After saying that, all four laughed.
Jia Liangyu suddenly lowered his voice and said mysteriously: "Do you know, there have been a lot of dead people buried on this beach, and it is said that some white powder boys and white powder girls were quietly buried here after their violent deaths - maybe there is a corpse buried under the beach we are stepping on now!" Xu Lingxin and Zheng Zhilan screamed and jumped up, and turned around nervously to hug Zhao and Jia respectively.
Jia Liangyu and Zhao Jie were very proud, and took the opportunity to touch the two women. Zhao Jie shook the flashlight again and said, "Look! There is a white shadow in front of her, is it a female ghost who is constantly unsettled? ”
Although they knew that there was no white shadow in front of them, Xu Lingxin and Zheng Zhilan still screamed in fright. Zheng Zhilan sneered and said, "You two are so bad! All these things are used to scare people...... It seems a little eerie at this point, and I get goosebumps all over my body! ”
Several white plastic bags on the ground were blown up by the sea breeze and swirled around the four of them. The dense shelterbelt on the right side of the beach looks like a huge black python in the night, ready to choose people to eat. The sparse fishing fires on the sea in the distance were like flickering phosphorus ghost fires in the eyes of everyone at this time, and even the "whooshing" sound of the tide seemed to have become weird.
The two men were scared unconsciously. Jia Liangyu said: "Okay, after walking so far, let's go back!" ”
"Ahh Zhao Jie, who was holding a flashlight, suddenly exclaimed and stopped suddenly. Zheng Zhilan, who was close to him, obviously felt that his whole body was trembling violently, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"Coffin...... Coffin! There's a coffin here! ”
Xu Lingxin was frightened, shouted and said, "Okay, if you scare people like this again, I will be angry!" ”
Jia Liangyu also said unhappily: "Zhao Jie, don't make trouble, let's hurry back!" ”
Zhao Jie said to himself: "Could it be ...... Am I dazzled? Courageously, he shone his flashlight on the left side of the front.
The four of them held their breath and looked at it without blinking, only to see a red coffin in front of them! The tide continued to pour onto the beach, kissing the base of the coffin over and over again, and the flashlight shone on the coffin, reflecting the cold light. The scene is indescribably weird and terrifying!
All four of them felt creepy and weak. How could a coffin appear on the beach by the sea in the middle of the night? Could it be that there really are ghosts here? Thinking of this, everyone jumped up, turned around and ran.
After running for nearly half an hour, the four of them were out of breath, and suddenly saw a wooden house in front of them, which was brightly lit, and the four of them cheered, as if grasping the straw that saved their lives, and hurriedly ran towards the wooden house.
I didn't seem to see this wooden house when I came! But they couldn't do much anymore, and when they saw that the door of the hut was open, they pushed it open without thinking and broke in.
A few candles were lit inside the hut, and it was like daylight. An old man with a lit candle in his left hand was looking at them. The old man's hair was gray, his face was full of wrinkles, and the frightening thing was that half of his right ear was missing! And the sleeve of the right hand was empty, apparently missing an arm.
Everyone was relieved just now, and suddenly when they saw such a strange person, their hearts jumped wildly, and they stared at the one-armed old man in surprise, and they were speechless for a while.
The one-armed old man seemed dissatisfied with the recklessness of the uninvited guests, and said, "You move lightly, don't wake my daughter up." She was sick and resting. ”
The four of them saw a girl lying on the wooden bed behind him with an unusually pale face, her eyes closed, her long black hair covering half of her face, and her body covered with a thick quilt.
Jia Liangyu and Zhao Jie only felt that this girl was very kind, but they couldn't remember where they had seen it.
The one-armed old man seemed to know what was going on in their hearts, and smiled mysteriously at the two: "You want to see my daughter clearly, don't you?" He put down the candle, approached the bed, lifted the quilt sharply, and brushed the black hair from the girl's face.
A nauseating stench came to my nose - oh my God! The girl's body and face were crawling with white maggots, and her fat body was constantly rolling and wriggling, and it looked even more strange in the flickering candlelight!
The four of them were so frightened that they went out of their bodies, and the two girls almost passed out. Jia Liangyu and Zhao Jie screamed strangely and rushed out of the wooden house. Zheng Zhilan was so frightened that she was about to go crazy, screaming: "Don't leave me ......" hurriedly dragged the semi-unconscious Xu Lingxin and stumbled out.
As soon as they ran out of the door, the four of them couldn't hold back any longer, leaned down on the ground and vomited heavily.
The one-armed old man stood by the door with a candle in his hand, and a mysterious smile appeared on his face: "I'm waiting for you to come back next time......"
When the four of them heard this, they were immediately frightened, and they hurriedly stood up and ran desperately the way they came, and ran back to the city in one go.
Although they returned to the brightly lit city, they still had lingering palpitations. Xu Lingxin and Zheng Zhilan cried all the way, complaining that Zhao and Jia left them alone when they were in danger. Zhao and Jia tried their best to comfort them for a while, and then the four of them broke up and went home.
At noon the next day, Jia Liangyu and Zhao Jie received a call from their friend Bai Yunfei, who was a police officer at the police station, saying that the office had given a bonus yesterday, and that they were on holiday today, and invited them to their home for a drink to celebrate.
When the three of them met, Bai Yunfei saw that they both had two dark circles under their eyes, and they looked sluggish, so he smiled in surprise and asked, "Didn't you sleep well last night, why are they the same as two giant pandas?" ”
The two of them smiled bitterly - as soon as they closed their eyes in bed when they came home last night, they saw the coffin on the beach, the ugly one-armed old man in the wooden house, and the girl covered in maggots, which made my heart beat all night and I couldn't sleep.
After Bai Yunfei heard what happened to them at the beach last night, he couldn't help but be surprised: "Is there really such a thing?" You're not hallucinating, are you? ”
The two hurriedly swore an oath, saying that what they said was true.
Bai Yunfei pondered for a while and said, "I have heard about the one-armed old man and his daughter, and that was three years ago when I was not assigned to work in the institute...... Speaking of which, this father and daughter are really very pitiful! They originally moved here from other provinces, and the two father and daughter have been dependent on each other, but unexpectedly, disaster fell from heaven - one day the girl was lured by two gangsters to an empty house in the suburbs to carry out **, not only that, in order to cover up the crime, these two gangsters actually set fire to the girl and wanted to burn the girl to death, and then escaped. Later, although the girl was saved, she suffered severe burns to her face and torso, and she was delirious......"
When they said this, Jia Liangyu and Zhao Jie's faces suddenly turned pale, and they glanced at each other, their eyes extremely complicated.
“…… With no money for medical treatment, the one-armed old man had to build a wooden house by the beach, away from the crowds, to take care of his daughter. It is said that the girl was tortured by illness in the hospital bed for more than 20 days before dying, and the old man died of depression soon after he could not bear the great pain of losing his daughter. When the girl died, she was only eighteen years old, and her name seemed to be Alian......"
Zhao and Jia glanced at each other again, their faces turned from pale to dead, and their teeth trembled involuntarily.
Bai Yunfei sighed again and said, "It's a pity that the girl has been delirious since she was burned, so she can't find out who those two gangsters are, and you can only know that they are locals." Only then did he realize that the two of them looked wrong, and couldn't help but be stunned: "Why are your faces so ugly?" ”
Jia Liangyu reluctantly smiled bitterly and said, "So, we really saw the hell last night......"?
Bai Yunfei thought for a while, shook his head and said, "I don't know. However, no matter what, if I have the opportunity, I must investigate this case well, bring the murderous gangsters to justice, and let the souls of the tragic deaths rest in peace. ”
Jia Liangyu and Zhao Jie's expressions looked even more unnatural. Zhao Jie said hesitantly: "It's been a few years, and no one recognizes those two...... Murderer, if you check it, it's also a vain investigation, so it's better to ...... Leave it alone! ”
"No!" Bai Yunfei said resolutely, "Letting this kind of scum continue to stay in society will only harm more people, as long as I can find clues, I must find them out and accept the punishment of the law, and don't let them go unpunished again!" ”
Zhao Jie was stunned for a moment and didn't say anything more. At this time, Jia Liangyu raised his glass and stood up and said, "Don't talk about these things, come, let's have a drink!" ”?
The three of them toasted each other.
But Jia Liangyu and Zhao Jie were obviously still troubled by the horror of last night, and they sat for a while before saying goodbye together. Bai Yunfei couldn't keep it, so he had to agree to meet again next time.
One evening half a month later, Bai Yunfei suddenly found them and said excitedly: "I went to the wooden house by the sea today to check, do you guess what I found there?" I found the wooden board with the handwriting on it, most likely the handwriting of the murderer that the girl had carved before she died! ”
Jia Liangyu and Zhao Jie took over a broken wooden board that was incomplete in shock, and sure enough, they saw two words engraved on it crookedly.
Jia Liangyu quickly glanced at Zhao Jie, whose face suddenly turned pale, and hurriedly asked Bai Yunfei: "You only found this plank?" Nothing else? ”
Bai Yunfei said: "I originally planned to continue searching, but unfortunately it has darkened, so I have to check again tomorrow." I believe this is an extremely important clue, and maybe the words engraved on these boards are the names of the murderers! ”
Zhao Jie blurted out: "Ah-" suddenly realized that he was out of shape, and hurriedly said: "It makes sense, you have a point!" It seems that the case will soon be settled. ”
Bai Yunfei nodded and said, "I'm going to sleep well with him tonight, recuperate my spirits, and believe that there will be more important discoveries waiting for me tomorrow!" ”
That night, two ghostly shadows appeared on the silent beach. After walking a few steps, the two black shadows stopped and looked around for a moment, gradually touching the vicinity of the wooden house.
But they seemed to be very afraid of the wooden house, and they squatted five or six meters away from the wooden house for a long time, not daring to approach, until they were sure that there was nothing wrong, and then slowly moved closer to the wooden house.
The hut was dark and silent, with no light or sound, like a lonely monster crouching on the sand.
They stopped about two metres away from the hut and unscrewed the stopper of the plastic canister they had brought with them, splashing the liquid around the hut. The air was filled with the smell of kerosene.
One of the shadows reached for a lighter with trembling hands, but for some reason, it couldn't hit it several times, whether it was fear or something else. Suddenly, the door of the wooden house was pushed open, and a bright flashlight shone on the two of them, and a voice full of disappointment and anger said, "It turns out that the murderer is really you!" ”?
The two black shadows were panicked for a moment and opened their mouths - the two were Jia Liangyu and Zhao Jie. Under the light of the flashlight, the two of them grabbed a statue of Guanyin with one hand and held it above their heads, blocking the dazzling light with one hand, and the expression on their faces was strange and funny.
The man in the wooden house turned out to be Bai Yunfei. He sighed and said, "When I drank at my house that day, I was suspicious of your reaction, and I didn't expect that if I tried it a little, you would be completely revealed!" Actually, I didn't find anything in this wooden house, the wooden board was just evidence that I had forged, and I assume that if you were the murderous gangsters, you would have found a way to destroy the evidence...... The result was unfortunately said by me! ”?
Zhao and Jia woke up like a dream, stayed for a while, and suddenly knelt in front of Bai Yunfei with a "plop". Jia Liangyu said: "It's all because we were obsessed with it for a while, and we made a big mistake." Haojie, you read that we are good friends,Just as if this never happened,Let us go once! ”
Bai Yunfei shook his head and sighed: "I really have no eyes, I have been friends with you for many years, but I can't see that you are two well-dressed beasts who have lost their conscience and exterminated their humanity!" How can you bear to poison a young and weak girl! ”
The two wept bitterly and begged: 'We were wrong, but no one has noticed that incident for several years, so you should turn a blind eye and don't pursue it, and we promise not to do it again in the future......
Zhao Jie said again: "I have more than 30,000 yuan in my deposit, and I will give you all ......."
Bai Yunfei said sharply: "As a law enforcement officer, how can I bend the law for personal gain!" Thinking of friends, I advise you to follow me to the police station to surrender yourself, and hope to get leniency. ”
The two begged for a long time, but Bai Yunfei was still unmoved, with a resolute attitude, and the two had no choice but to stand up dejectedly. Jia Liangyu suddenly pointed to the wooden house and asked, "Who is that?" ”
Bai Yunfei subconsciously turned his head, Jia Liangyu suddenly pounced forward, hugged Bai Yunfei tightly with both hands, and shouted to Zhao Jie at the same time: "Quick!" ”
Bai Yunfei was frightened and struggled: "Let go!" What are you doing......" Before he finished speaking, he had already received a heavy blow to his head, and his head was suddenly bleeding, and his eyes were full of gold stars.
Zhao Jie threw away the broken ceramic statue of Guanyin in his hand in a daze, took a step back, hesitated slightly, and immediately took out a knife and stabbed Bai Yunfei a few times.
Bai Yunfei struggled angrily, but his arms were desperately hugged by Jia Liangyu, like an iron hoop, he couldn't break free, and soon became a bloody man.
Jia Liangyu let go of his hands, watched Bai Yunfei's body slowly slump, suddenly gritted his teeth, snatched Zhao Jie's knife, and stabbed Bai Yunfei's heart again!
Bai Yunfei struggled and scolded: "You two brutes ......" slowly fell in a pool of blood.
The two looked at Bai Yunfei's corpse and stood for a while, Jia Liangyu said, "Go!" "The two of them are running on the beach like lost dogs, trying to get out of this unsettling place as soon as possible.
ran not far away, and Zhao Jie suddenly bumped into a person with an "oops". He stopped to look, and in front of him was a girl with long hair and a shawl, her beautiful face faintly recognizable in the moonlight. However, he was even more terrified than the demon with the blue face and fangs, and exclaimed, "Ghost...... Hell yes! ”
Jia Liangyu was also covered in sweat and hair, and his heart was broken, watching the girl step by step back, and said in a trembling voice: "Ah...... Mercy? ”
The female ghost let out a terrible laugh that made people shudder, and it slowly drifted towards the two of them, and screamed, "You still know me? That's you! lied to me and said that he introduced me to work, but he my L woman, and set fire to me to burn me to death, making me look like this person is not a person, a ghost or a ghost! ”
As he spoke, the skin and flesh on his face and hands gradually rotted, and then countless maggots appeared, falling to the ground one after another as they approached the two, and slowly crawling towards the feet of the two with their wriggling ugly bodies, gradually crawling more and more ......?
Seeing this, Jia Liangyu and Zhao Jie were scattered, their legs were weak, and they trembled and retreated step by step.
At some point, the ghost of a one-armed old man appeared, with an ugly face, and cried out in a terrible voice: "You have killed my daughter, and I want you to pay for your life!" Suddenly pounced and bit Zhao Jie's ear hard!
Zhao Jie was in pain and frightened, and urgently kicked the old man. The old man's body fell a few feet away, but his head still bit Zhao Jie's ear and hung on his body.
Zhao Jie almost fainted in fright, hurriedly grabbed the head and threw it to the ground desperately, but even half of his ear was torn apart, dripping with blood, and he howled loudly in pain.
The old man's body got up and walked a few steps forward, picked up his head and placed it on his neck, laughed a few times at the two of them, and then opened his sharp teeth and threw himself at the two!
At this time, the female ghost was gradually approaching, and a large swarm of maggots also climbed onto the upper of the two of them. Jia Liangyu suddenly remembered something, turned around and shouted to Zhao Jie as he ran: "Guanyin statue!" Quick, run back to the cabin......"
Zhao Jie also remembered that there was a statue of Guanyin dropped by Jia Liangyu in front of the wooden house, and hurriedly turned around and ran in the direction of the wooden house. Two ghosts chase after him.
The two ran to the front of the wooden house, and Jia Liangyu immediately picked up the complete statue of Guanyin and held it up to the female ghost who flew over, and the statue of Guanyin suddenly appeared a white light on the female ghost. The female ghost screamed and bounced off the ground a few meters away.?
The old ghost was furious, his eyes bulging, and he swooped down on him with a roar. Jia Liangyu hurriedly faced the Guanyin statue in his hand again, and the Guanyin statue really emitted another white light, bounced the old ghost a few meters away.
The two ghosts were eager for revenge, and they rushed closer again and again, but again and again they screamed and bounced away under the white light emitted by the Guanyin statue. They finally reluctantly stopped their attacks, and unwillingly floated around Zhao, Jia, and the wooden house, never daring to approach again.
Jia Liangyu laughed proudly: "Come on, come on!" Weren't you fierce just now, why don't you dare to come here now? ”
The two ghosts were helpless, staring at them with resentment and unwillingness in their eyes, and from time to time they let out a sad and sad cry.
Bai Yunfei, who fell to the ground, suddenly turned over at this time and pounced on Zhao and Jia-
"Brute, I'll let you never hurt people again!"
The three of them fell into the wooden house together, and Bai Yunfei hit the lighter in his hand and burned the wooden plank next to the wall. The planks had already been doused with kerosene, and immediately burst into flames, spreading throughout the wooden house in an instant, and the three of them became burning men.
Jia Liangyu and Zhao Jie stumbled and struggled in the sea of fire, wailing in pain.
The two ghosts watched the raging fire from outside the wooden house, listening to the faint wailing sound inside the house, and both had a strange smile on their faces, and the terrifying laughter echoed in the night sky for a long time.
…………
?? …………
After listening to this story, Han Wenwen let out a long breath, clutched her chest and said, "It's terrible! ”?
"Terrible? You mean the ghosts in the story, right? The old man looked at her and said in a deep voice, "In fact, ghosts are not the most terrible, sometimes people's hearts are more terrible than ghosts!" ”
Han Wenwen and Jiang Wei glanced at each other thoughtfully.
After a while, Han Wenwen suddenly asked, "Is the wooden house in your story talking about this wooden house?" But the wooden house in the story has burned down, and this wooden house is still in good condition! ”
The old man did not reply, but reached out and picked up a small stick on the table, leaned in to light the candle a little.
At this time, under the illumination of the candlelight, Jiang Weiqing clearly saw that the sleeve on the old man's right side was empty, his heart beat wildly, and he subconsciously looked at the right side of the old man's face, only to see that half of the ear was missing!
