Panic at midnight, please close your eyes when it's dark! Can't sleep? Let's come and see Lao Yu tell you a story, our story today is called "The Stranger"!

Lao You also once asked some people who were about the same age as me if they had some hallucination experiences when they were young, that is, when you were inadvertent, you would suddenly hear a person's voice, sometimes it was someone you were familiar with greeting your name, and sometimes it would be a stranger, saying something inexplicable and vague.

Ask at least nine out of 10 people to admit that they have had a similar experience, and more than once, and it often happened when they were younger.

The thing I experienced was even more evil than auditory hallucinations, because I saw people with my own eyes!

At that time, I was about five or six years old, and in our rural area, I didn't pay attention to any kindergartens, and during the day, my parents all went out to work, and we children stayed at home and played by ourselves.

Although there were no mobile phones or computers at that time, basically the first thing my parents did when they came back was to pull them over and beat them up, because we had played to a new level.

That day, I vaguely remember that it should be morning, and I was playing with a small plastic box on the kang at home, and in the box were a few big white bugs.

Sticking to the kang is a low window sill, on which is a small window inlaid with transparent glass, lying on the window sill, just in time to see the situation outside the window.

The window is facing the gate, there is no gate, only a courtyard wall, and the other side is unobstructed, you can see the small river in front of the door, the small trees and flowers on the hillside.

On one side of the courtyard wall with an iron chain tied to a big black wolf dog, at that time the village was not peaceful, there are always a lot of young people, do some stealing chickens and dogs, everyone's life is not good, losing something is a relatively significant loss, for this almost every household has a dog, not for fun, but to watch the home to prevent thieves from stealing!

At that time, my grandfather was still alive, and he had a very good craft, that is, he used a very soft and thin branch that grew on the mountain, and made baskets and baskets.

Making things by hand is very slow, and in order to make these things available to everyone as soon as possible, Grandpa works overtime almost every day, so he is very busy every day.

That day, he was still weaving a basket in the yard, and his grandfather was almost seventy years old at the time, and his body was relatively handsome, but his hearing was not very good, and when he talked to him, he had to shout in a louder voice.

That day was an ordinary day for us, but something happened that I still can't forget, I am sure that it was definitely what I saw with my own eyes, not a dream, nor did I confuse the content of some film and television dramas with reality.

It was a pair of old men who looked to be forty or fifty years old, one came down from the hill in front of the door, the other climbed out of the water, and the two of them were like a couple, close to each other side by side, and walked towards the gate of my house with a smile.

The big wolf dog, who was lying on the ground honestly at the door, saw that a stranger was coming, and immediately stood up, barking loudly at the two people, and his body kept running forward, breaking the chain around his neck straight.

But the two men didn't seem to be afraid of my big fierce wolfdog, and still smiled, and went around the yard out of the wolfdog's reach.

The gate of our house is facing the south, and my grandfather is working on the courtyard wall to the west, and my hearing is not very good, so I didn't know that anyone was coming.

When I saw all this in the house, I shouted to my grandfather in the yard, "Grandpa, grandpa, someone's coming!" but the old man still didn't react.

I had no choice but to climb down from the kang, and I didn't even bother to put on my shoes, so I ran out to see who was coming, because they had already reached the door of the inner room.

But when I went out, I didn't find anyone, I searched all the east and west houses, and I didn't see anyone, so I ran into the yard and asked my grandfather, saying that someone had come to our house just now, and asked him if he knew.

Grandpa's answer, of course, was that he didn't know, and asked me who I saw coming, how could I say it clearly, I looked at the big wolf dog at the door again, he was still lying on the ground honestly, looking listless, all this is not like someone has come.

Later, my parents came back and the first thing they did was to beat me up, because I was running around the yard barefoot and stepping on the mud with both feet.

I explained to them that I had come out of the house, and they beat me harder because they suspected me of lying.

Although it has been more than 20 years since this incident, I still remember the whole process clearly, and the voices and smiles of those two people are deeply engraved in my heart.

It wasn't until I was in my twenties, that is, a few years ago, that I was introduced to my second girlfriend in my life, who is also my ex-wife, and we got married after only 38 days of acquaintance, but I didn't have any feelings for her.

Because my parents let us be together at the beginning, just to make me forget the only person I like in my life, that is, the Liu Xiaoshuang I said before, and she was with me just for the house that was assigned to us for that unit.

Two people who don't love each other come together, it is destined to have no good results, this marriage only barely lasted for less than three years, and finally ended, she got my house as she wished, and I completely lost the opportunity to be with Xiaoshuang.

I remember when I was with Xiaoshuang, I went shopping again, and met an old gentleman who set up a stall to tell a hexagram on the way.

The fortune teller said, "It is not suitable for me and Xiaoshuang to be together, because there will be evil things from the mountains, forests and canals.

I wanted to ask again, but I asked for a hundred yuan, a hundred yuan was very valuable at that time, and I had such a good relationship with Xiaoshuang at that time, I thought that it would be absolutely impossible for us to separate, but in the end, people are not as good as heaven, and we finally separated because I married someone I didn't love.

Once I accidentally saw a photo of me and my ex-wife and my two families together on the day we got married, and I was surprised to find that my former father-in-law and mother-in-law looked exactly the same as the middle-aged man and woman I saw when I was a child!

It also made me understand why they were so nice to me, and I felt a sense of déjà vu when I saw them for the first time.
