【Extra, Paper Painting Man】
When Xu Qing went home, it was already the middle of the night.
His car broke down, and he could only step on the shadow of the street lamp to go home in frustration. There was no one on the road, not even a car, which was a bit weird. When he turned an intersection, he suddenly heard a sneaky footsteps, the kind of sound, like two people whispering, not public, and deliberately let the third person hear, the size was just right.
Probably out of instinct, Xu Qing felt a numbness in his back and quickened his pace. But he walked fast, and the footsteps behind him were also broken, and he walked slowly, and the footsteps behind him were slow. After walking a few hundred meters in a state of trepidation, he was sure that something must have followed him. He decided to take a look.
Xu Qing turned his head suddenly, and his eyebrows furrowed in confusion. It was a piece of paper, and it lay calmly on the ground, and occasionally when the wind blew, it lifted a horn and moved tremblingly, as if waving its hand. Paper is paper, it can't be turned into a knife to pierce people's hearts, it can't be turned into a beast to bite people's necks.
But Xu Qing was a curious person, so he didn't move on, but turned around and walked towards the piece of paper. He decided to be naïve and tear the piece of paper to shreds to relieve the hatred in his heart. When he picked up the paper, he found that there was something drawn on it, and there was a line of words. The painting is: a crooked old woman. The words written: Give it back to me.
Xu Qing felt that this must be some child's boring work. He tore the piece of paper and let it go with the wind.
After solving the heart disease, Xu Qing began to move forward openly again. But after walking for a while, he heard the faint and ill-intentioned voice again. This time, he didn't stop, and suddenly turned his head away. His head grew big all of a sudden, and the piece of paper suddenly reappeared. It seemed to be deliberate, under the action of the wind, it floated to Xu Qing's feet little by little, and the woman on the paper, with two big eyes, stared at Xu Qing deadly.
Xu Qing's breath twitched, and he swallowed saliva and ran all the way while being agitated. When he stopped panting and breathed heavily on his knees, Xu Qing's body froze like ice...... That piece of paper is still there! It was glued to the soles of his shoes, and he followed him firmly! At this time, a taxi came at the end of the road, and Xu Qing stopped the car like crazy, shook off the paper on the soles of his shoes, and got into the car.
At the moment when the car started, a gust of wind blew in the air for no reason, as if there was a person who couldn't see it crying faintly, the strange wind rolled up the piece of paper, snapped and pasted it on the window glass, just facing Xu Qing's face, the woman on the paper smiled hideously under the paper roll, and then disappeared into the window.
Xu Qing saw that the paper disappeared and the whole person collapsed, and scolded in a low voice: "Hell! ”
The driver's ears were thief, and he said with a serious color: "Looking at you like this, you must have seen that old lady?" ”
Xu Qing asked curiously, "What old lady?" ”
"You're from out of town, aren't you?" The driver's voice was a little solemn, "You don't know, our street is a famous ghost street in the city." It is said that in the middle of the night, people often see an old lady wandering on the street, which scares many young and old! ”
The driver continued to tell Xu Qing: "People who live on Yuhua Street know that in the middle of the night, don't go out, otherwise you may meet a crazy old lady." ”
"No one knows where the crazy old lady lives, and no one knows what her name is, but over the years, people have become accustomed to this old lady who appears in the middle of the night. It is said that at first, late at night, the old lady would appear in a flutter and wander down the street, holding in her hand a stack of white paper on which she had drawn her own drawings and written her own words. She scattered the paper all over the street like a leaflet. ”
Occasionally, when people who came home in the middle of the night saw her, she would shake the paper in her hand and chase after them with her mouth. Many people were scared by her. Later, people began to talk about it one by one.
Some people who don't believe in evil say that she must be a madman who ran out of a mental hospital, but many people say that she must be a lonely ghost who came out in the middle of the night to ask for her life; Oh yes, I heard that the old lady would ask for something when she saw someone! ”
"Anyway, this thing is quite evil, one person has one mouth, and one hundred people have one mouth. Later, this matter became more and more widespread, and Yuhua Street involuntarily became a ghost street in the city. ”
When Xu Qing heard this, he couldn't help but say, "Is the old lady a human or a ghost?" ”
The driver said nonsense: "When you are alive, you are a human, and when you die, you are a ghost." ”
Xu Qing stubbornly said: "I don't believe that there are ghosts in this world. ”
"Really?" The driver suddenly smiled gloomily, "There are a lot of strange things that we encounter when we drive a taxi, and some things have to be believed!" As he spoke, he touched the Bodhisattva pendant on the roof of the car, "I often run to this Yuhua Street, and I have encountered a lot of strange things, this Bodhisattva was invited to me by my wife, thief spirit!" ”
Xu Qing said, "Have you seen that old lady?" ”
The driver said: "Once, I ran a night train to take a drunk passenger back to Yuhua Street. He was very drunk, and when I got to his house, I wanted to take him upstairs, but he said no, so I turned around and walked to the car. I had only walked a few steps when I heard him muttering something to someone else. I turned my head and saw him standing in the doorway of the hallway, and there was an old lady standing in the hallway, and I couldn't see her face clearly, but I was sure it was an old lady. I thought it was, so I didn't think much of it, but as soon as I got on the bus, I saw the passenger fall to the ground. Later, the police came, saying it was alcoholism. Not in my opinion. ”
"What do you think?"
"He was taken away by the old lady!"
After a series of nonsense, Xu Qing finally arrived home, and when he got out of the car, the driver stopped him again: "You have to be careful, it is said that whoever picks up the leaflet that the old lady scatters, she will follow whom!" As he spoke, he pulled out a dirty business card in the car, "This is the place where my wife asked me for a Bodhisattva pendant, and you can take it if you want to use it." ”
Xu Qing was stunned for a moment, and hesitantly took the business card. There is no name on the business card, only the number, Master Lin. Amused by the name, which was not at all mysterious, he looked up, the taxi was already far away, and he suddenly shivered. That piece of paper was stuck to the butt of the car! It followed him all the way!
In fact, Xu Qing's feeling that there is a ghost behind him is not in vain.
Xu Qingjin Chinese New Year's Eve neatly and is unmarried. In his early years, he lived abroad with his father. His father runs an industry of hundreds of millions of dollars, and the industry is mainly concentrated in China. A year ago, his father died of illness, and he moved back to take over the huge property and take care of his mother. His mother was not his father's legal wife, but a woman whom Xu's father met in China decades ago. The two lived together illegally and gave birth to him illegally.
When Xu Qing was a child, Xu's father took him away, but Xu's mother couldn't follow, and Xu's father's legal wife was a famous vinegar jar. The mother and son parted for twenty-four years, and twenty-four years later, Xu Qing's aunt and father died one after another, and he took over his father's property and returned to China with honor. When he returned, newspapers and magazines promoted him as the fifth king of diamonds, and he suddenly became famous and became a celebrity.
Celebrities have celebrity panic, and Xu Qing began to panic. He was afraid that others would beat him up, and he was afraid that he would accidentally lose his life because of wealth and fame. He even had plans to hire bodyguards, but he thought it was too exaggerated. As a result, this increasingly intense worry has formed a sixth sense that there is someone behind it.
When Xu Qing arrived home, it was already three o'clock in the evening. He lives in the Penghu Bay villa area in the city, and he lives alone, without employing anyone.
At this time, the sky was dark red, and people were breathless. Xu Qing looked at the black house, and for the first time felt lonely and afraid. He turned on the phone recording and listened to the messages.
The first is a message from my mother: "Xiaoqing, don't forget to go home on Sunday, I'll cook you your favorite rock sugar bird's nest."
The second is the company secretary's: "Mr. Xu, your car will be repaired the afternoon after tomorrow." ”
The last message turned out to be empty.
Xu Qing frowned, and was about to turn off the phone recording, but as soon as his hand reached for the switch, the tape recorder suddenly rang: "Don't move!" He was startled and instinctively withdrew his hand. There was a faint laugh from the tape recorder, as if the person who had teased him was triumphant. He was a little angry, reached out and pressed the switch again, and the tape recorder suddenly spoke again.
It said, "I said, don't touch me!" Xu Qing's heart was furious. He realized that the call was not a message, but had just come in. But why is this phone call, as if it has eyes, and it can see everything he does? Or rather, it was the one who called, who had clairvoyance!
Xu Qing mustered up the courage to pick up the phone and said tremblingly, "What do you want?" The voice on the phone said coldly and slowly, "I'm looking for you." Xu Qing swallowed his saliva, and said in his throat: "Who are you?" The phone said, "Paper! ”
Xu Qing shook for a moment and remembered the piece of paper that had been with him all night! I remembered the crooked old lady on the paper! He trembled and said, "Where are you?" ”
The voice on the phone laughed wryly: "I'm behind you!" ”
Xu Qing subconsciously turned his head, and it was gloomy outside the large window, and suddenly, he saw a piece of paper! The paper was so well glued that it was in the upper corner of the window, and if you didn't look closely, you really couldn't see it. On that piece of paper was a crooked old lady, and on that piece of paper was written a sentence: Give it back to me!
Xu Qing trembled all over, he stared at the piece of paper like a fierce beast that was about to pounce at any time, and in an instant, the voice on the phone changed, turning into a hoarse and vicissitudes of a woman's voice, and said word by word: "Give me back my life!" After that, the piece of paper suddenly disappeared, but Xu Qing felt that his body was getting colder and colder, and he didn't dare to move when he stood still, and finally fell asleep on the sofa in the living room.
The next day, Xu Qing came to the company anxiously, and as soon as he walked into the office, the secretary Xiao Feng walked in. Xiao Feng is a native of the country, and her family lives near Yuhua Street.
Xiao Feng came to deliver coffee, she put the coffee on Xu Qing's table, and called Mr. Xu several times, but Xu Qing didn't look up. He hadn't let go of the strange thing he had done last night.
"Mr. Xu, your coffee!" Xiao Feng couldn't help but raise his voice.
Xu Qing raised his head and suddenly said, "Xiao Feng, your family lives in Yuhua Street, have you ever heard of the legend of a crazy old lady?" ”
Xiao Feng was stunned for a moment and said, "Yes, yes...... Mr. Xu, how do you ask...... This one? Her voice was muffled to the end.
Xu Qing felt that this matter was evil, one person said that he didn't believe it, and two people said that he did, and he had to believe it. He took a deep breath and thought about it, and said, "Xiao Feng, do you believe that there is such a thing in this world?" ”
Faced with Xu Qing's sudden question, Xiao Feng immediately understood what he was talking about. She closed the door and said, "Mr. Xu, have you encountered something strange?" I'll tell you the truth, the old lady is all a lie, it's just a crazy old lady who likes to run out in the middle of the night and scare people. She had just died a while ago. I heard that he was accidentally hit by a car at night and died. ”
"How do you know?"
"It was a major traffic accident, and it was in the newspapers. However, you know that not everyone reads the newspaper, so not everyone knows about it, and the more it spreads, the more evil it gets. ”
"Did the old lady show up later?"
"Mr. Xu, the old lady is dead!"
"I know, I mean ......"
"What the hell happened to you?"
In the face of Xiao Feng's concern, Xu Qing bit his lip and finally told him what happened last night, especially the piece of paper and the telephone with induction. Xiao Feng's face also changed, and his brows couldn't be unraveled. No one seems to be able to explain this sudden and strange thing easily, it's terrifying!
Xiao Feng said helplessly: "Mr. Xu, I think someone must be beating your idea, you have to be careful!" ”
Xu Qing calmed down and said, "Arrange for me, I want to meet the driver who hit and killed the old man." ”
The next day, when Xu Qing arrived at the city prison, it was already afternoon. He was a big investor in the city, and it was easy for him to meet someone. Xiao Feng contacted the city bureau and got some information about the driver in advance. The driver's name is Wang Liu, 42 years old, a native of the country, who had been working as a driver before the accident. What he didn't expect was that Wang Liu was actually his mother's personal driver.
In the dark and closed visitation room, Xu Qing stared at Wang Liu without blinking. How did he think that Wang Liu was wronged, this man who was not confused really didn't look like a bad guy, short, thin, submissive, and his eyes revealed a kind of hardship and hardship in life.
Xu Qing asked straight to the point: "Are you Wang Liu?" You're the driver who drove my mother? ”
Wang Liu nodded and said, "It used to be, but now it's not." Xu Qing said, "Have you ever killed an old lady?" ”
"It's not me who killed her, it's her who wants to die!" Wang Liu said excitedly that that day, Xu's mother said that she would go to a friend's house for a party and ask him to pick him up at night. As soon as it was dark, he drove to the friend's house, picked up Xu's mother, and prepared to go home. At night, the sun was replaced by the moon, but the temperature was uncontrollable and sticky......
