Chapter 309: The Ghost Covers His Eyes
I stood inside the room and looked at the qiฤ outside with some surprise.
The car crashed into a tree, and the front of the car was dented in a piece. The engine went off twice. Soon the ignition went out. Calm was restored outside.
No one got out of the car, and the driver was probably unconscious.
I tapped on Mr. Lu's door and called, "Come out quickly, there is a situation." โ
However, there was no response at all in the house, and I twisted the doorknob, which was already locked.
I hesitated in the room for a moment, but ran out.
Although I don't know what Mr. Lu's situation is, the people in the car outside are probably in need of help.
It's cold on the streets. The wind blew in gusts, and I wrapped up my clothes tightly and ran to the car where the accident had happened. I tapped on the door and shouted, "How are you?" โ
No one answered me at all.
I stuck my head against the glass and looked inside. I want to see if the driver has fainted. However, the sight inside stunned me.
The car was empty, there was no one.
I scratched my head and thought to myself, "What's going on?" Did the driver leave on his own? โ
Surrounded by fallen leaves, I squeaked when I stepped on it, and I slowly walked back. Noticed something was wrong on the side of the road. Ditch stunt.
The kebab stall has not been removed, and the charcoal on it still emits black smoke. There are several long tables next to it, and the beer on the table has not yet been drunk. But there is no one left here.
The people on the street seemed to have disappeared out of thin air. Only these tools of life, which still remain the same as they were.
The more I thought about it, the more frightened I became, and just then, there was a rustling sound in the distance. I follow the prestige past. It was found that the cleaner from last night had reappeared.
My heart tightened, and I stared at him deadly. This time I didn't approach him again, but flashed to the side of the road, looking him up and down, hoping for some clues.
The cleaner swept the fallen leaves and walked over slowly. When he walked up to me, he slowly stopped. He asked in a low voice, "Little brother, can you help me sweep a section?" I'm old and a little tired. โ
I listened to her voice like an old lady. I was so worried that I didn't answer. And the old lady seemed to think that I had acquiesced. Shoved the broom into my hand, and she didn't leave, just stood next to me, silently waiting for me.
At this time, I wanted to throw away the broom, and then the wolf bรจi fled back, but I had just moved this thought, and the old lady suddenly whispered: "Little brother, only you are still awake, you can help me, okay?" โ
When I heard what she said, I couldn't help but be stunned and asked, "Only I'm still awake?" What does that mean? โ
The old lady's voice was pleading: "I won't hurt you, you can help me sweep this street." When you're done, I'll sue you. โ
After saying this, she walked across the road step by step. I saw her trembling, no different from the cleaners during the day, and I couldn't help but feel compassion.
According to my practice, when you encounter this kind of thing, you should call Mr. Lu as soon as possible. But I weighed it and decided to help the old lady sweep the streets.
Because I had done this unintentionally once yesterday and didn't encounter any danger, it made me feel at ease. Moreover, the old lady's sentence "Only you are still awake", she seemed to be saying, even if I ran back, there was no way to wake up Mr. Lu.
I decided to cooperate with her and began to sweep the leaves with a broom. The leaves were thick on the opposite side of the road, and after a few steps, I noticed that it was much more than yesterday.
I looked up at the poplars on either side, and the leaves on them were almost gone.
In the distance, the rustling sound sounded across the street.
In a panic, I swept the fallen leaves near the empty house, and the old lady arrived.
The street lights fell and shone on me, leaving a dark shadow. But the light found the old lady, and behind her there was nothing.
I put my hands in my pockets, and my body almost shrunk into a ball. I confronted this ghost in such a protective posture that even I felt that my behavior was a little ridiculous. If she really wants to deal with me, no position will work.
The old lady struggled to pile up the fallen leaves, and stood at the door of the empty house like a large grave bag.
She crouched down and set the leaves on fire.
At this time, I noticed that the leaves burned very quickly, like a ball of cotton, burning down at a very fast speed.
I boldly said, "Old lady, I've finished sweeping the leaves for you, you should sue me, what the hell is going on?" โ
The old lady said tremblingly, "Little brother, I'm afraid you have seen it." I'm not a human, I'm a ghost. โ
My heart was pounding, and I thought, "This old lady is also calm." I asked, "Are you a good ghost or an evil ghost?" โ
The fire burned brightly, illuminating the old lady's body, but her face was hidden in the darkness. After a while, she said lightly, "What is a good ghost?" What is a Demon? He who does good cannot always do good deeds, and he who does evil cannot continue to be evil forever. โ
I thought to myself, "Aren't you messing around?" I was about to ask again, but the old lady said with some sadness, "I am not a good ghost, nor am I an evil ghost." I'm a ghost slave. Slave among the demons, otherwise, this street sweeping work would not have been assigned to me. โ
I saw that the old lady said miserably, and lost no time in sympathizing: "The slave among the ghosts is also a little pitiful. โ
The old lady sighed for a while and said, "I'm afraid you want to ask, what's the matter with these leaves?" โ
I nodded and said, "That's right." โ
At this time, the light of the fire had gradually dimmed, and the large pile of leaves, in two or three minutes, actually burned into a pile of ashes.
The old lady said, "Little brother, there is nothing wrong with these leaves, the problem is your eyes, you are covered by ghosts." What you see, it's all fake. โ
I stared at the ashes on the ground in a daze, slowly squatted down, I grabbed a handful of them in the ashes, the residual temperature was still there, a little hot, I said suspiciously: "Fake? โ
The old lady smiled and said, "It's all an illusion, don't believe it." โ
When she said the words "don't believe it", she especially accentuated her tone. I always felt like she was hinting at me.
I took a bold look at her, and suddenly I noticed that there were no black eyes in her eye sockets, only two whites.
I was startled and quickly took a step back.
The old lady seemed to notice my anomaly, she turned her head, smiled at me, and said, "Young man, have you noticed that I am blind?" โ
I nodded and asked nervously, "Since you are blind, why can you still move freely?" โ
The old lady smiled and said, "Because my heart is not blind." โ
She sighed and said, "Little brother, it's not too early, you should go." โ
I pointed to the roadside stalls and the empty cars and asked, "Where did they go?" โ
The old lady turned her face to me and said slowly, "They didn't go anywhere, the driver was already unconscious." The young man who was eating was pouring himself wine. โ
I blinked and said, "I can't see them at all." โ
The old lady put her hand on my shoulder. whispered, "They didn't disappear, but you disappeared." โ
I was thinking about this when suddenly, the old lady's face changed. The wrinkles on his face were gone, and the two black eyeballs returned. After a few seconds, she turned into a bright girl.
I looked at her dumbfounded and blurted out, "Why are you?" โ
The person standing in front of me was none other than Gu Yue.
Gu Yue put her hands on my shoulders, and this action made her face flush. She winked at me, but her voice was still very old: "Little brother, I should have been here tomorrow, but I'm old, old and frail, and it's better to clean these fallen leaves earlier." โ
Gu Yue's voice and expression were completely incompatible. I looked at her in amazement, and suddenly I had a strong feeling in my heart that someone was watching her, and she was sending me a message in a code language.
I don't know if I should continue to throw questions. Just as I hesitated, her face grew old again. She took two steps back, stood in front of me, and said leisurely, "Little brother, you don't have to come to clean up for me tomorrow, and I won't know you tomorrow." Remember what I told you, it's all false. โ
Then, she walked slowly with a broom.
