Bright red and sticky blood splattered on the floor, like patches of red plums.

When the old woman saw that I had fallen to the ground and did not get up, she leaned over and raised the kitchen knife in her hand and slashed at the top of my head again.

The kitchen knife flashed cold, and if it was slashed by it, it would be seriously injured.

At this moment, there was nothing around me that could be stopped, and in desperation, I had to bend my right knee and kick out the ball of my foot when the old woman approached.

Due to the suddenness of the incident, the old woman didn't have time to react, and the kick happened to be in her chest.

I only heard a bang, and the old woman was kicked to the ground by me, and after falling, she slid several meters on the ground due to the slippery blood on the ground before stopping.

I finally got a moment to catch my breath after the old woman fell to the ground, and turned my head to look in the direction of my arm, where blood was gushing out of the cut cut by the kitchen knife.

I didn't feel any pain in the fierce battle with my wife before, but now I can breathe the pain of the wound spread all over my body, and I couldn't help but gasp.

I was just about to find a cloth to bandage the wound, when I suddenly found that the old woman who had fallen to the ground had stood up.

She covered the injured position on her chest with one hand, clenched the kitchen knife with the other, stared at me with extremely cold eyes, and said fiercely: "Even if I risk my life, I will avenge my wife!" ”

A terrible roar sounded in my ears, and when I saw the old woman raising a kitchen knife and attacking me again, I couldn't care about continuing to bandage my wounds.

I glanced left and right, picked up a folding chair next to me and pushed it towards the old woman.

The sharp kitchen knife slashed at the steel pipe of the folding chair, and the fire suddenly flew everywhere.

I didn't stop after seeing the folding chair resisting the kitchen knife, and twisted my hands hard, and the old woman's wrist hurt, and the kitchen knife fell to the ground in my palm.

Seeing this, I hurriedly stretched out my foot and kicked the kitchen knife into the distance, and then continued to push hard with both arms, because the old woman was already injured at this time, and she was older, she was not my opponent at all.

She staggered backwards, and in a short time I pushed her to the door.

I wanted to push her out of the door and close it, but I didn't expect to tripped over the door frame just as the old woman was about to be pushed out by me, and in an instant she fell to the ground and rolled down the stairs by inertia, only to hear the back of her head hit the solid wall with a thud, and then stopped moving.

Seeing the old woman lying motionless in the corridor, I instantly felt a pang in my heart, and hurriedly walked downstairs to the old woman.

Looking at the old woman's pale and bloodstained face in the cold moonlight, I couldn't help but swallow and spit at the mouth, and after taking a deep breath, I bent down and put my trembling fingers under the old woman's nose.

After a few seconds, my mind went blank, and the old woman was no longer breathing.

"Dead?" I looked at the old woman lying in front of me in horror and muttered to myself.

Although it is a legitimate defense, but after all, it is a manslaughter, if the police are held accountable, I will not be able to escape the involvement, thinking of this, I hurriedly went upstairs and prepared to go back to the house to take the mobile phone to call the police.

But what I didn't expect was that when I took my mobile phone out of the house and was about to dial the number, the scene in front of me made me stunned, and the old woman who had fallen to the ground was gone.

The dilapidated and dirty walls left only a pool of bright red blood, presumably caused by a head wound.

After seeing the old woman disappear, I hurried to the handrail of the stairs and looked down through the staircase partition, although it was pitch black below the floor, I could still hear the sound of chaotic footsteps and rapid wheezing.

Hearing the sound, my hanging heart finally fell to the ground, it seems that this old woman is not dead, the reason why she pretended to be dead just now is probably because she is afraid that I will mend the knife, so I will sneak away when I go back to the house to get my mobile phone.

Although her not dead means that she will come to seek revenge, this is already the best result for me, and I plan to report to the police tomorrow morning, so that even if this old woman still wants to take the opportunity to take revenge, she will not succeed.

After dragging my tired and injured body back home, I cleaned up the blood from the floor, and then threw the black dog into the trash, ready to go downstairs and throw it away the next morning.

As for the shroud, I didn't move it again, still putting it in a black plastic bag.

I was going to rush to Tianxiu Mountain Cemetery at night, but after taking a glance, the time was already eleven twenty, not to mention that the appointed time had passed, and I couldn't go to the cemetery again with my current physical state.

The most important thing now is to bandage the wound on the arm first, and as for going to the cemetery, we can only wait until tomorrow night.

After disinfecting the wound with liquor, I bandaged it with a bandage, and by the time I lay down, it was already past twelve o'clock.

I collapsed on the bed and tossed and turned, unable to sleep, not only because of the pungent smell of blood in the room, but also because of the strange things that had happened in the past two days.

It all started when I got this shroud, and if I want to find out what is going on, I have to investigate the origin of this shroud.

If I don't go on like this, I'm afraid I'll go insane even if I don't get killed.

I spent the whole night thinking about it, and I didn't fall asleep until two or three o'clock in the middle of the night, and I don't know how long I slept, when I was woken up by the sound of a shrill siren.

When I woke up, the first thing I did was to look at the black plastic bag on the table next to me, and I was relieved to see that the shroud was still there.

I just wanted to go back to sleep, but the siren was ringing endlessly, and the screeching sound was so loud that I couldn't continue to sleep at all, so I had no choice but to get up and see what was going on.

When I got to the window, it was still a little dark outside, and I looked downstairs through the window, only to see the red and blue beams of light flashing under the building, and two police cars were parked in front of the garbage building.

Since neither of the two police cars had their headlights turned on, it was not clear what was going on, but dozens of people had gathered around to watch the excitement.

Although I was curious, but as the saying goes, it's none of my business, I didn't care much, just when I was about to turn around and continue to lie down and rest, suddenly the headlights of two police cars turned on, the lights were as bright as day, when I saw the scene in front of me, my scalp exploded, and there was a person in red hanging in the garbage building!

Since the building where I live is only a narrow street away from the garbage building, and the lights are very bright, I can clearly see that the hanged person is the old woman who escaped from my house not long ago!

One end of the thumb-thick hemp rope is tied to the garbage building, and the other end is wrapped around the neck of the old woman, who has her eyes wide open and her red tongue in her mouth, and she is not blind!

The eyes of the old woman in red clothes hurt, and I was stunned to see the old woman in red clothes hanging in front of the garbage building, I used to live in the countryside when I heard the older generation talk about wearing red clothes and becoming a ghost.

The reason for this saying is still from folk rumors, according to legend, the red-clothed suicide has no one to cross, it is difficult to be born, like a living soul, and does not enter the customs.

Red represents happy events in folk customs, such as weddings and the like, red clothes must be worn, also known as red events.

The funeral is called a white event, and most areas use black and white to decorate the ceremonial filial piety clothes, etc., and even the deceased's shroud is mostly black and white, so the festive color red is usually taboo for death-related clothing.

Therefore, there is a folk legend that if you commit suicide in red, there will be no black and white impermanence to extrado, that is, after becoming a ghost, you will never be able to be reborn, so those ghosts who commit suicide because of resentment will never be reborn, and the resentment will naturally accumulate more and more.

Moreover, after death, a person will become a ghost and go in and out of the ghost gate, but if it is not a body death, but a living person's soul out of the body, then this wisp will become a living soul.

Living souls can freely enter and exit the Ghost Gate, and the soul wearing red clothes will make other souls mistakenly think that they are living souls, and they can gain the ability to enter and exit the Ghost Gate, so as to enter the Yang World to take revenge, so there is a saying that if you want to take revenge, you will wear red clothes before you die.

Now this old woman wears red clothes and commits suicide just to become a ghost to take revenge, since she mistakenly thinks that I killed the black dog, then she is obviously coming at me.

If the rumors of the red-clothed ghost are true, then my current situation is not extremely dangerous.

This old woman is a living person, and I can fight with her for a while, but if it becomes something unclean, how can I fight against it, and then I will definitely die!

It's really a house leak that happened to rain overnight, and now the shroud thing has made me anxious, I didn't expect this old woman to put on red clothes and commit suicide, and now I'm really at a loss.

Just when I was anxious in my heart, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in my mind, since the man I met at the breakfast stall yesterday could see that I had caused trouble recently, and also knew that the shroud was in my hands, then he must have a way to deal with this old woman, so as long as I can find the middle-aged man yesterday in the Tianxiu Mountain Cemetery tonight, then my life should be saved.

Thinking of this, my nervous mood calmed down a little, and I spent the rest of the day standing by the window and looking downstairs.

About half an hour later, the police dismantled the old woman's body, and then arranged for a vehicle to send it away.

After seeing everyone leave, I went back to the house and began to clean up, and at about seven o'clock I went downstairs to have breakfast, to see if I could meet the middle-aged man I had yesterday.

When I passed the garbage building, I subconsciously glanced in the direction of the old woman's hanging, and in an instant a cold wind hit, straight into the neck, I didn't stand still, and walked quickly towards the breakfast stall.

When I came to the breakfast stall, I looked around, but I didn't find the middle-aged man, and then I began to eat breakfast absentmindedly.

After breakfast, I went to the stall owner to pay the bill, but when I took out my phone, I found that I had an extra note in my pocket.

At first, I didn't care, thinking that the note had been put in my pocket and I forgot to take it out.

I didn't open the note until I had finished paying, but when I saw the words on the note, my head exploded, and I threw the note in my hand.

A few words were written on the note in bright red blood: My wife and I are waiting for you to come down.
