Chapter 1: The Ghost of the Forest
Late at night, eleven o'clock, in the middle of a deserted forest path. A gust of cold wind blew, and Zhang Chumo couldn't help but shiver.
Hmph, it's Uncle Li who is on duty today, don't blame the fifth child for not telling you that I have a house outside the school. Master, I'll go home and sleep, and you guys will blow the wind outside the dormitory!"
Thinking of this, the corners of Zhang Chumo's mouth were slightly hooked, and his unhappy mood suddenly became better.
Originally, Zhang Chumo planned to review well in school, after all, he was about to take the postgraduate entrance examination. Zhang Chumo's own major is not too good, and his future development potential is limited.
But a few animals in the dormitory dragged themselves to the Internet café to open the black. Open the black, open the black, and you can do the review tomorrow. I never expected it, seventeen consecutive kneeling!
I was angry and wanted to smash the keyboard, but when I saw the time, it was 10:50. Several animals hurriedly threw down their keyboards and ran, but before they could come back to their senses, they couldn't find the running figures.
Zhang Chumo also wanted to run, but before he could run to the door, he was blocked by a mountain of meat. Because they are frequent customers, several people go online first and then give money. The money hasn't been given yet, how can the network administrator let you run?
After advancing one hundred and fifty yuan, Zhang Chumo left the Internet café. In the empty streets, there is not even a single car. And the figures of those animals have long disappeared without a trace.
The school's curfew is 11 o'clock, and those who do not return to the dormitory after 11 o'clock will be closed. That's why a few animals just run away.
But Zhang Chumo is not worried about this, although he has been living in the school dormitory for the past three years. But before he could report to the school, his family had already bought him a house near the school.
During the three years of college, he also went to live occasionally. He doesn't have a girlfriend, his parents aren't around, he lives alone too lonely, and he's afraid of encountering those things, but he prefers the atmosphere of a university dormitory in comparison.
Another gust of cold wind blew, and Zhang Chumo tightened his coat, "It's a bit too gloomy today...... There's nothing unclean, right?"
As a new generation of progressive young people in the Tang Empire, Zhang Chumo should also believe in science and stay away from superstition like his classmates. But...... Who made Zhang Chumo have a pair of eyes that are different. From childhood to adulthood, I can often see things that others can't see.
I remember when I was about eight years old, I saw Grandma Li who I hadn't seen for several days one night, and hurriedly turned around and said to my mother. Who knows, my mother covered her mouth and told herself that Grandma Li had passed away last week. I must have seen it wrong, and I repeatedly warned me not to talk nonsense in the future.
The young Zhang Chumo didn't know what death was, but he no longer took the initiative to tell others about those strange things. Even if they did, no one believed it. Later, as I grew up, my living environment became more and more prosperous, and gradually, those strange things became less and less.
But today, this cold wind blowing is really evil. And when he came here, Zhang Chumo remembered some rumors about this grove some time ago. It seems that in the grove, three or four people have died inexplicably.
"Damn, I knew I wouldn't cut corners. With a secret sigh in his heart, Zhang Chumo subconsciously quickened his pace.
Before he could take a few steps, Zhang Chumo's legs suddenly went limp, and he almost stumbled and fell to the ground. Looking straight in front of him, in the misty woods in the distance, a woman in white seemed to float from the fog.
"Nima, are you really so unlucky? I can't see her, yes, pretend I can't see her......" Zhang Chumo kept beating the drum in his heart, pretending to walk slowly and naturally. He even pursed his lips and whistled to give himself courage.
The white-clothed figure is getting closer and closer, and Zhang Chumo is also sure that the other party is definitely not a person. Because under this snow-white long skirt, it was empty. Fortunately, Zhang Chumo can still maintain his composure, such things are not too few to see from childhood to adulthood. In general, if you don't provoke them, they won't provoke you.
But this time, Zhang Chumo's heart couldn't help but feel a little hairy. The gloomy feeling seemed to be the kind of cold that penetrated the soul in the cold storage, and the moment the white figure passed by Zhang Chumo, she suddenly turned her face to Zhang Chumo and showed a smiling face.
"I can't see her...... I can't see her ......" Zhang Chumo continued to hypnotize himself in his heart, but his pupils contracted violently uncontrollably. His face was still calm, and he slowly passed the white-clothed figure with a whistle.
"Whew-" Zhang Chumo secretly lost a sigh of relief, "It's so dangerous, fortunately, I used to practice often, this acting skill should be able to fool ......"
Fortunately, before he could rise, Zhang Chumo's body suddenly became stiff. A cold palm without the slightest temperature gently patted Zhang Chumo's shoulder.
"Titicaca-" Zhang Chumo turned his neck stiffly, and this time, he couldn't pretend to be garlic. Ghosts are virtual things, people can't touch ghosts, and ghosts shouldn't touch people. But this female ghost can pat her hand on her shoulder......
"Little brother...... Isn't that good acting...... My sister is not the kind of ghost that is invisible to the naked eye. Little brother is such a pure soul...... People want it so much......"
"Dao Chief, help-" Suddenly, Zhang Chumo's eyes burst out with a divine light of surprise, and he hurriedly asked for help in the distance behind the female ghost.
The female ghost's face suddenly turned cold, and she suddenly turned around, only to find that there was a haze behind her, and there was not even a shadow!
"Ghost-" Seeing the female ghost turn around, Zhang Chumo pulled out his legs and ran. This is also thanks to Zhang Chumo's immunity to some of the fear of ghosts, and if he were someone else, let alone running, he would have already been paralyzed in fright.
"Run?" The gloom on the female ghost's face changed instantly, revealing a hint of a playful chuckle.
The grove is only two or three hundred meters long, and it has been more than half of it before. It stands to reason that Zhang Chumo should have less than a few seconds to run wildly. However, after running for a long time, Zhang Chumo didn't see the edge of the woods.
Suddenly, Zhang Chumo paused vividly. The white figure, like a lily at night, stood not far in front of Zhang Chumo. After running for a long time, I returned to the original point again.
"Little brother...... Why don't you run away?" the female ghost smiled and slowly floated towards Zhang Chumo.
"There are meteors-" Suddenly Zhang Chumo pointed to the sky in surprise, the acting skills were the same as the real thing.
"Do you think I'm going to be fooled? Besides, Meteor? What's so nice? Does the little brother want to have a romantic relationship with someone before he dies?"
"No, there are really meteors flying towards us!" Zhang Chumo's eyes widened, revealing an expression of disbelief on his face.
"Oh, really?" the female ghost suddenly smiled, "Then why don't you make one last wish now?" maybe after you die...... Can you still do it......"
