Chapter 8: The Dark Shadow of Kowtow
The third grandfather drank a little too much tonight, and after I slept with him, I went back to the room where my parents had sit, the room where I was born. The bedding inside is still there, and a white sheet is laid on it, except for a little musty smell after it is uncovered, it can barely sleep.
Lying on the bed, thinking about the incident in 87 that my third grandfather told me just now, what he said was very different from what my grandfather said, the only thing in common was that there was a blue light, and then all the living things in the village disappeared.
In the words of the third grandfather, I noticed one thing, saying that the grandfather looked back, his face changed suddenly, and even told him to pretend to be asleep, as if he knew what it was, and even had the experience of avoiding the black shadow.
So what kind of identity does grandpa really exist? There are a lot of twists and turns in this, and the third grandfather doesn't seem to be completely telling me the truth, and deliberately conceals some things.
Too many questions made me toss and turn in bed, and I didn't know how to fall asleep in the end.
In a daze, I suddenly heard a sound in the window, I sat up from the bed with a spirit, the voice was very clear just now, and I quickly looked at the window opposite the bed, it was still dark outside, and I couldn't see what was going on outside through the glass.
"Am I dazed and having auditory hallucinations?" I took my phone on the bedside and looked at the time, it was just over twelve o'clock, and I didn't even sleep for two hours.
I was interrupted by the crisp sound just now, and I was sleepy at the moment, I got out of bed and was about to drink some water, when my ears suddenly twitched, and I heard the sound of Peking Opera outside, as if I was singing a big opera, which was particularly harsh in the silent night, and the weird singing voice made people feel a burst of pore horror.
The Peking Opera singing voice that appeared for no reason made my heart go up and down, so I carefully crossed to the window instead of opening the door to see what was going on, stood in front of the window and glanced outside, the moonlight was very bright, I looked for the strange singing voice, and accidentally found that it was actually from the third grandfather's room, didn't he sleep and listen to the radio?
But since the third grandfather has this hobby, I am also relieved, as long as there is no one who sings in the middle of the courtyard. Then I looked away, and as soon as I turned around, my body froze.
I felt like I saw a figure.
Hurriedly turned around again, only to see that in front of the grandfather's mourning hall, a trace of sparks was still lit, and a black shadow knelt on the paper-burning futon.
At this moment, the black shadow suddenly moved, swaying back and forth, as if kowtowing.
The more you look at this scene, the more strange it becomes, isn't there something wrong with this person, how can it take so long to kowtow and bow? But then, I felt weird, the black shadow swayed faster and faster, and the amplitude became more and more exaggerated, and it did not stop doing repetitive movements.
I only felt a chill on the soles of my feet, the black shadow was definitely not a person, it was impossible for a person to do such a strange thing, and the body could not withstand such a toss. I even thought I had just woken up and was dazzled, so I quickly rubbed my eyes and looked again.
My heart was suddenly cold, and my body couldn't stop trembling, only to see that the black shadow in front of the mourning hall rubbed his eyes turned into two, and they were all doing repetitive movements, kowtowing and bowing! Kowtow and bow! Shaking back and forth.
"What the hell!" I already understood a little in my heart, grabbed the curtain and closed it, gasped for breath, and only listened to the sound of Peking Opera in the third grandfather's room instantly raised, and the weird tone was like a soul, and I subconsciously screamed: "Not good!" ”
Three grandpa there!
I hurriedly opened the door and rushed out, and the whole person was stunned, only to see that at some point, the courtyard was full of strange humanoid black shadows that kept shaking back and forth, and these humanoid black shadows were shaking very fast, and the people who watched were shocked.
But when I thought that the third grandfather was still in the house, I didn't know if he knew what was happening outside, and I was worried that he would be surprised, so I gritted my teeth and tiptoed against the wall to slip over, and this time, the sound of Peking Opera suddenly stopped.
The swaying eerie black shadows also suddenly stopped, standing still in place.
This change came too suddenly, and the feet that had just taken out were hanging in the air and did not dare to step on them, for fear of alarming them. At this moment, those black shadows suddenly made a movement in unison.
They all turned to look at me.
In the shadows, I widened my eyes and saw the faces of those figures, all of them were exactly the same faces, I swallowed my saliva tremblingly, those faces were actually the faces of the third grandfather.
Yes!
I screamed, sat up directly from the bed, sweating profusely to find the switch on the light, and waited for the room to turn on, only then did I breathe a sigh of relief and calm down, it turned out that I had just had a nightmare.
And it's a dream within a dream, it must be that I think about it at night, I have a dream at night, I can only comfort myself, get off the bed, take the mobile phone at the bedside, look at the time, my heart trembled, it turned out to be a few minutes after twelve.
Time is the same as dreams! Am I still dreaming?
So will the outside of the window be the same as the dream? I hesitated to put on my slippers, cautiously walked close to the window, opened the curtains, the moonlight was like in a dream, the silver light sprinkled all over the courtyard, and I saw that there was nothing in front of the mourning hall, and the heart of the throat and eyes couldn't help but fall back to its original position, there was no black shadow, no Peking Opera, everything was normal.
Syllable!
Suddenly, there was a sudden sound of the window being slammed behind me, and my whole body was so shocked that my hairs stood on end, and I forgot that there was actually a window in this room
I twisted my neck with difficulty and looked behind me.
A large face was pressed against the glass and looked inside, and for a moment the face showed an eerie smile.
