Chapter 1 Gambling
Late at night, on the banks of the Kira River
It was pitch black all around. The air was filled with damp water vapor, and there was a crow's chirping in the distance, and Qin Yubin couldn't help but shiver. A cool breeze scratched his back, making his heart hairy.
The atmosphere was very gloomy, and walking on the road, Qin Yubin remembered the terrifying rumor again.
It was a story many years ago: it is said that one night, a young man walked along the riverside to his home. As he passed by the stone lion statue, he lit the last cigarette and threw the empty cigarette case at the stone lion's feet. However, something strange happened. After walking for seven or eight minutes, he was horrified to find another stone lion on the side of the road in front of him, and there was also a cigarette case at the foot of the stone lion. But he clearly remembered that there was only one stone lion on this road, could it be ...... Are you going around in circles?
It's impossible, it's supposed to be a one-way straight road, how can it be...... The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, and his steps became haste.
Not long after, he saw a long-haired woman walking towards him. He didn't care about it at first, but when the woman approached, he suddenly found that under the moonlight, his shadow was stretched very long, but this woman didn't have a shadow!
The next moment, he screamed in fear: the woman had no nose, her eyes were empty, there were no eyeballs, red blood was flowing from her eye sockets, and a bloody mouth was wide open! He wanted to turn around and run, but his feet would not obey the call, and he could not move.
The woman stretched out her blood-stained hands, and a fishy smell hit her face. "Giggle...... "There was a sinister smile in my ears......
Later, the story of the haunting of the Qiluo River spread, and it was named the "ghost road". Although it is the 21st century, no one dares to go here. Everyone would rather take a long detour than be exposed to the bad luck of a ghost road.
And now, Qin Yubin is walking on this ghost road, holding his mobile phone and turning on video recording. In the middle of the night, a cold wind blew. Under the dual effect of fear and cold, he kept shivering and his teeth chattering.
He regretted the bet he made with Xue Yang a little.
......
It was a terrible day, and things didn't go well.
Early in the morning, Qin Yubin's alarm clock was broken, and he was late for school and happened to be hit by the headmaster on patrol. After being reprimanded for a long time, he returned to the classroom in disgrace.
Qin Yubin leaned on his seat, flipping through the novel book he had just bought last night, feeling irritable.
"Have you all heard of the 'ghost road' in Qiluo City? Hmph, I'm not afraid, I'm going to go there every night for a walk, and there's not a single hairy person there. I'll tell you, the last time I ......"
Needless to say, it was Xue Yang who was bragging to everyone again, saying that he was very powerful.
Qin Yubin glanced at Xue Yang, snorted coldly, and continued to read his novel book. He hated Xue Yang from the bottom of his heart.
However, Xue Yang seemed to notice Qin Yubin's actions and walked towards him: "Boy, do you dare to go to the ghost road?" Xue Yang stood in front of Qin Yubin and asked contemptuously.
"Huh?" Qin Yubin frowned and raised his head: "Ghost road, isn't that just an ordinary path?"
"Oh, then, if you dare to walk the "ghost road" alone in the middle of the night, I will call you dad three times in front of the class, how about it?" Xue Yang said defiantly.
"What, what do you call me three times?"
"Daddy!" "Hey!"
"Are you playing Lao Tzu?" Xue Yang snatched the book in Qin Yubin's hand and threw it to the ground: "Cowardice, I know that if you don't dare, you can only be a coward for the rest of your life." ”
"Who said I wouldn't dare?" Qin Yubin was also angry. With so many classmates watching, Xue Yang's move undoubtedly made him very faceless.
"I'll bet you don't dare, weak chicken. Xue Yang pointed his nostrils towards Qin Yubin with a look of disdain.
Qin Yubin was upset at the time, and was stimulated by this, and his brain was hot, so he accepted the bet.
However, how can I prove that I went to the ghost road? After discussion, it was decided to ask Qin Yubin to record a video of himself going to the ghost road and bring it back to his classmates for examination. After confirming that it was correct, Xue Yang shouted Qin Yubin's father three times in public, otherwise it would be the other way around. The whole class can testify.
Now that the gambling contract has been made, the students already know about it, and it is too late to regret it. The bet I made made had to be completed with tears in my eyes.
In fact, this is not the first time Qin Yubin has been ridiculed, he admits that he is a very cowardly person, and even small insects are afraid. On weekdays, he is silent, and he can endure anything he can. And Xue Yang is a veritable campus bully, strong and strong, flying and domineering, and often bullying Qin Yubin. What should I do if I am bullied? I can't beat others, so Qin Yubin has no choice but to admit it. But today, in full view, he chose to take up the challenge.
It was probably the most manly moment of his life!
......
God, although I, Qin Yubin, have not done any great good deeds, I have not done any bad deeds. Bless me on this safe journey!
There was another crow chirping, echoing above the empty riverbank, and Qin Yubin's hand holding the phone trembled. He smiled bitterly twice, swallowed his saliva, and emboldened himself. Hmph, I don't believe there are ghosts in this world.
What's weird or not, it's all psychological, just scare yourself.
Qin Yubin thought about the funny scene of Xue Yang calling his father, and the fear in his heart suddenly subsided a lot. He hummed a little tune and walked briskly forward.
The owl in the tree stared at him coldly.
