Chapter 402: Human Skin in the Moonlight
The more I look at it, the more I feel that the child in front of me is very strange and evil, but I can't just tell what I think in my heart.
Because although I thought that there was something wrong with this child, but I didn't see what the problem was, in case I directly said that your child had a problem, and people asked me what the problem was, and I couldn't say why, then the joke was light, and maybe I would be blamed, so I didn't bother with this matter.
However, I pretended to be very curious and asked the old man tentatively, and I said, "Uncle, is your child not in good health, and his face is a little pale!" ”
"Alas!"
The old man seemed to have something unspeakable, sighed helplessly, with a bitter face, and said faintly: "This baby's life is hard, I will be content as long as he can grow up alive every day." ”
The old man doesn't seem to be willing to say more, seeing this, I don't always want to ask more questions, maybe this is a sore spot for others?
In other words, that child looks weird, if it weren't for the fact that his face was a little frightening, and he was a little fatter, maybe he was really a very likable little cutie.
Maybe it was because I was a stranger, so the child looked at me curiously in the old man's arms, with a pair of small eyes, I smiled at him and asked him how old he was?
The child replied that he was six years old, and told me that his nickname was Stone.
In the mountains, many children will take a "cheap"
Name.
Because the old people in the mountains believe that the more humble the name, the easier it is to feed, and the ghosts and evil spirits will not provoke the lowly people.
This is also why in rural areas, there are often nicknames such as Gouzi, Erdan, Gouyu, Huazi and so on.
The old man claimed to be surnamed Zhou, and others called him Zhou Laohan, and he went to the town that night to buy a bottle of wine and came back to entertain me.
Although wine is not a good wine, and the food is also a common dish at home, it can be seen that Zhou Laohan's family background is not very good, so this enthusiasm also touched me very much.
After the meal, the warm-hearted Zhou Laohan arranged a room for me, Zhou's house did not have a TV, we chatted casually after the meal, and I went back to the room early to rest.
After a day's journey, he was already sleepy and tired, and the night here was extraordinarily quiet, so he fell asleep in bed.
When I woke up, I didn't know what time it was, but I felt that the sky outside the window was full of stars, and the moonlight shone in front of the bed from the window, probably at 11 or 2 o'clock in the middle of the night.
Because of the urgency of urinating, but I didn't ask Zhou Laohan where the toilet was in advance, so I turned over and got up, ready to go out and find a random place to relieve myself.
But at this time, I faintly heard crying outside the house.
This crying is not loud, it seems to be there and there is nothing, it is intermittent, and it sounds like the cry of a child if you listen carefully.
Although the crying is not very real, it can make people feel that the other party is crying very sadly, sadly, and even a little painful.
Now I wondered, thinking to myself, in the middle of the night, whose child is crying?
Because I was going out to find a place to urinate, I walked out of the door with this cry, and when I got out of the room, I saw that the door of Zhou Laohan's house was not closed, and it was still open in the middle of the night, but the house was dark without turning on the lights, and there was no movement, obviously Zhou Laohan's grandfather and grandson had already slept.
The moonlight outside shone in through the open door, illuminating the black living room.
I went straight out of the gate and into the courtyard, and as soon as I got there, I was startled by the big coffin that was placed in the courtyard.
I saw that there were three white candles burning on the ground at one end of the coffin, and in the white moonlight, the black coffin exuded a strange paint light, especially the three white candles, which added a lot of weird atmosphere, making people's scalp numb and weird.
I was surprised to see this big black coffin with white candles enshrined in it, because who would be okay to light candles in front of the coffin in the middle of the night, this is too fucking evil, right?
I remember that during the day, there was no candle in front of this coffin, which means that the candle in front of the root of this coffin was lit at night.
Could it be that this coffin is not an empty coffin, but that there is something inside?
Feeling strange, I slowly walked towards the strange coffin.
But just as I was about to get to the coffin, I suddenly saw a figure flickering in another corner of the courtyard.
You must know that it is the third watch in the middle of the night, how can anyone walk around the yard, and there is such a strange big coffin in front of you.
So, at that moment, I was frightened, and I hurriedly looked up at the flickering figure.
Then I saw that it was indeed a person, a child, dressed in white, with his back to me, standing on one side of the courtyard wall, facing the moonlight in a daze.
I immediately asked him, "Who are you?" ”
The child paid no attention to me, and it was as if he didn't even hear me, because he didn't even react at all, and still stood there with his back to me.
Seeing this, I walked over curiously, thinking that perhaps the crying sound that I had faintly heard in the room just now might have been caused by this child.
Soon, I came up behind the child and asked, "Whose child are you?" ”
This time the child reacted, slowly turned his body around, and then looked at it, and couldn't help but be stunned, isn't this the grandson of Zhou Laohan's family?
I saw that the child's face was a little paler than in the daytime under the moonlight, and his pale face looked like a ghost, which was particularly scary.
Perhaps, it's because of the moonlight.
Seeing that it was Zhou Laohan's grandson, I asked him, Shi, why don't you sleep in the middle of the night, why are you running outside alone?
The kid named Stone still ignored me, and stood in front of me in a daze, looking a little like sleepwalking.
Seeing that he did not speak, I was even more strange, I thought this child was very strange during the day, but now he did not sleep alone in the middle of the night, and ran outside, and there was a white candle in front of the coffin, so I felt very evil.
So, I made a gesture and reached out and patted him on the shoulder.
But it's okay not to shoot, it didn't scare me to death!
It stands to reason that as Mr. Yin and Yang, I have traveled south and north for so many years, I have seen all kinds of ghosts, even the underworld, and I am naturally much more courageous than normal, and ordinary things really can't scare me.
But this time, I was really scared.
Because, just after I reached out to pat him on the shoulder, he "bang"
The sound is gone.
Yes, it's gone, not to be exact, but like a light gauze coat, it fell to the ground with a light pat, turning into a white gauze coat.
It was so weird that I never dreamed it would happen.
Think about it, you get up in the middle of the night and see a man standing in the yard, and as soon as you touch him, he melts.
Then the man was gone, and only a pile of what looked like a veil of clothing fell underfoot.
I don't know if you will be frightened when you encounter this, anyway, I was frightened, and I was so frightened that the whole person jumped up, and I was taken aback, and my hairs exploded up, but I didn't scare my guts.
It's also fortunate that I've seen some strong winds and waves, if I were a normal person, I guess I would be scared when I encountered this.
I jumped a few steps away, my heart pounding with fright, and I looked at the thing on the ground that had turned into a white veil, and my face was full of disbelief.
You must know that it was obviously a person just now, the grandson of Zhou Laohan, why did he suddenly disappear when he touched it?
What about people?
My first reaction at the moment was to see the hell, to see the hell!
If it weren't for the hell, how could everything that had just happened be explained?
I looked around to make sure that I didn't see Zhou Laohan's grandson, so I walked over to the ball of yarn, and then picked it up.
As soon as I started it, I thought it felt weird to the touch, why it was weird, I couldn't tell, anyway, it just didn't look like a sari coat.
Soon I lifted it up, and it was so light that at first glance it looked like a white garment, but when I saw it in the moonlight, I shuddered again, and threw it away.
Because...... It's not a sari at all, it's a human skin!
That's right, it's not a sarnic, it's a human skin, a child's human skin!
I'm sure that the reason why the kid I saw just now melted at the touch of it was because he was just a human skin, not a living person at all.
Thinking of this, I shuddered so hard that my scalp exploded and cold sweat rolled out.
Just imagine, a human skin is like a puff of air, standing in the courtyard like a person basking in the moonlight, this kind of picture makes people feel eerie and chilling!
