Chapter 8: Sleepwalking

When I saw this scene, I was directly stunned.

This picture is like a cult ritual in a movie, and it appeared in front of me at this moment, and I was immediately stunned. The scariest thing is that the performer of this ritual is still my mother.

My mom finally sensed my presence, and when she opened her eyes and saw me, she was startled and immediately stood up.

"Why, why haven't you slept yet? It's so late......"

When she stood up in a panic, the burning paper talisman in her hand also fell to the ground. I immediately picked it up and looked at it, and it was all densely packed with ghost drawings.

I felt a little panicked when I held it in my hand, so I quickly threw it away, and then immediately asked, "Mom, what are you doing here?" ”

"It's nothing...... my mom slurred and didn't answer me.

At this time, my dad came from behind and he said to me, "Son, your mom is actually helping you by doing this." ”

"Help me? Help me with what? I thought about it for a moment, and then simply said, "I know you have something to hide from me, but I'm not a child anymore, just tell me what you have." ”

My dad motioned for my mom to clean it up, and then went into the house with me.

"Since you said so, then Dad will tell you the truth, in fact, we are doing this to help you exorcise evil spirits."

As soon as my dad said that, I asked, "Does it have something to do with my sleepwalking?" ”

My dad sighed, nodded and said, "Yes." When you were a teenager, you had this problem, and then I took you to find someone to see, and the fortune teller said that you had evil in you, and you needed to do something to get rid of it. I know you don't believe this, but after you did it at the time, sure enough, you didn't do it again, and today when you came to the house, you said that you had encountered this kind of thing, and we were worried about whether you started sleepwalking again, so we went down to find the Taoist priest before and asked for a few talismans. ”

I felt very helpless in my heart, my parents are from the countryside, and they have always been very superstitious people, and it is useless for me to persuade them to do this kind of thing, but I was more surprised that my father said that I had a problem with sleepwalking when I was a teenager, and I quickly asked: "Dad, how old did I start sleepwalking?" Why didn't you tell me at the time? ”

"At that time, one was because I knew that you didn't believe in those fortune tellers, and the other was because I was afraid that it would scare you and affect your learning. And then your problem was cured, so we never told you. My dad explained to me.

I nodded, almost understood. But it's still hard to accept this fact in my heart, after all, I have always been a normal person in my mind, but now it seems that I have some kind of mental illness.

I asked, "Dad, did I start when I was a teenager?" Sleepwalking every night? ”

"We found a total of two, the first time was before your high school entrance examination, one day your mother got up at night to go to the toilet, and saw you sitting motionless in the middle of the living room, your mother talked to you and you ignored it, and then she felt that something was wrong and woke me up, and we didn't dare to call you, so we just watched you sit there for almost half an hour, and then walked back to the house to sleep."

My dad lit a cigarette as he spoke, and then continued: "Then your mother and I decided to observe for a few days to see if you would make such a mistake again, and stayed up for two nights, and on the third day, sure enough, you got up again, and this time you walked further, and ran directly from home to the street. Then I'll chase you to the side of the road and drag you. Thankfully, nothing happened, and you felt like you had lost your mind, and you went straight back to sleep. ”

I felt a chill down my spine when I heard it, I didn't expect that I had such a horrible behavior, and I couldn't help but shudder when I thought of the scene I walked in front of the camera and stared at the camera the night before.

At this time, my mother also cleaned up the outside, so I told them not to do these things, to believe in science, and that I would see a doctor when I found time. After soothing them for a long time, they were allowed to go to sleep.

After they fell asleep, I fell into insomnia.

What my parents told me today really turned my three views upside down, and for the first time I felt scared of myself.

I thought to myself, it looks like I can't go on like this, I really need to see a doctor when I find time.

Maybe I slept too much during the day, and I couldn't sleep at night tossing and turning in bed, so I simply went to the window and opened the window to get ready for a cigarette.

As soon as I opened the window, I noticed a man next to the streetlight downstairs, staring at me motionless.

My parents' house is on the third floor, so I can see everything on the street very clearly. I could clearly see that this person was wearing a hospital gown, and he looked extremely strange.

I took a deep breath and tried to calm myself down. Then he pulled out his phone and prepared to take a picture of the person's face. I think this is probably very important evidence.

I can't go downstairs now, because I know that when I do, chances are he's going to be gone again.

I immediately reached into my pocket and pulled out my phone, raised it and pressed the shutter button with a trembling hand, and at that moment, I suddenly saw that his mouth seemed to be moving, as if he was saying something to me.

I stopped what I was doing, looked at his mouth closely, and suddenly felt as if he was repeating a few words over and over again.

So I had an idea and directly took my phone and recorded a video of him.

I just recorded a video and found that my phone's battery was running low, so I had to save the video for the time being.

When I looked up again, the man was gone.

I stretched out half of the window and looked out, but I couldn't find him, so I found a place to charge my phone first.

This man is like a ghost. If it weren't for the fact that I had just taken a photo and recorded a video, I am afraid that I would have to wonder if I was delusional.

I charged my phone, looked at the photos I took, I felt extremely weird, I couldn't help but shiver, I turned on the video, carefully pondered what he said, but I didn't have a clue, I tried to imitate his mouth movements, and found that it seemed to say "one ten plus one he" ......?

The combination of these words makes no sense, is it some kind of codeword?

I didn't think about it for a long time, so I sent the video and photos to Mr. Gao to see if he had any impression of this person, and maybe he would get any clues.

I smoked another cigarette and went to sleep.

I got up early the next morning, and immediately went to look at my phone, and sure enough, there was a new message reminder, and I immediately opened it to see that it was Mr. Gao who replied to my WeChat message.

After clicking on it, I found that he said something to me:

This person seems to be saying that you are next.
