On the first day of my senior year, there was a rumor in our post bar that a couple died in bed in a hotel
outside the school. Not to be killed, but to bite each other to death. Strange to
say, I didn’t believe it, but since the four brothers in our dormitory went to
the back hill of the school once, similar symptoms began to appear on us.
It was the first day of school in class.
After all, when I was a senior, the teacher had no class to talk about, so we were left to chat below.
Sitting next to me was my good friend Wang Wei, who was very wretched and was describing
to me in a soft voice the details of his tryst with Lin Xiaoyu in the hotel two days ago.
The mobile phone kept calling, and I hung up one by one. I was so
upset that day that I asked him to say something else. As soon as he changed his
style of painting, he immediately gave me a cruel look:
“By the way, Li Jiang, did you see that?”? The school post bar is crazy, saying that the hotel on the central road
has an accident! A couple of graduate students died in bed. It’s a good thing I
didn’t get a room there.
But combined with his obscene remarks, plus the words “hotel,” “couple,” and “in bed
,” I immediately urged him to say, “What’s going on? Hurry up and say..
I really thought it was some kind of sex story.
But then Wang Wei’s brilliant description hit me in the face:
That was the night before yesterday.
A couple who went back to school early went to a hotel on Central Road to check in. They just met again after a
long vacation. Young people, I understand.
But what happened in the room is hard to understand.
Although strictly speaking, no one knows what happened
in the room that night.
The next day, when it was time to check out, before the people inside came out, the waiter called and knocked on the door
without a response, so he opened the room without authorization, and then saw a terrible
picture in the room:
the original white bed was completely dyed red. On the bed, on the other hand, lay two masses of
bloody “things,” with broken organs and pieces of flesh scattered on the bed and on the floor.
The waiter was scared silly on the spot, then repeatedly called for help, and the hotel immediately called the police.
The police went to the scene to investigate and found that there was no sign of invasion in the guest room, and
there was no suspicion of homicide at the scene. And they also found that the wounds
on the body of the deceased had teeth marks. The flesh and organs of
their bodies were “bitten” off. To support this speculation, there is an absolute evidence-
bits and pieces of the other side.
Maybe it’s in the stomach, but there’s no way to confirm it at the scene.
But the problem was that there were no signs of fighting at the scene, and no one else in the hotel heard
any calls for help all night.
Could it be that these two people were so affectionate that they gnawed each other to death without quarreling? Subconsciously,
I just think it’s made up, or it’s a misrepresentation. How can this happen
?
Don’t you resist? Doesn’t it hurt to bite each other?
Even if it doesn’t hurt, what motive do they have to bite each other and eat each other’s bodies
?
Besides, how can person who wrote this post on the school post bar know so many details? Don’t
you rely on making up?
After I raised the question, Wang Wei also felt that it was reasonable, so we put this
weird story behind us and moved on to the next gossip.
Originally, I didn’t take it to heart.
But after that, something even stranger happened. It was also a school student, and it was also related to
“eating.”. Besides, he’s our friend.
A senior student named Chen Mingjie is very familiar with us in the same club.
It happened late that night, the first day of school, in the school canteen. Somehow
, Chen Mingjie came to the school canteen alone. He roughly pried
open the door and went into the kitchen. He found a large bucket of hogwash
that he had not had time to deal with that day. He desperately stuffed the leftovers in the bucket into his mouth. Early
the next morning, he was found by the morning staff. At that time, he had already
died. It was said that his stomach was bulging like a hill. His death was very ugly. The scene was a
mess. There was vomit everywhere, more than one place.
This shows that after he vomited, he continued to put the dirty “food
” into his mouth tirelessly, then vomited again, and then continued to eat. There was also a rolling stick
beside him, and the police speculated that he used it to poke the contents of his mouth into his stomach when
he couldn’t eat any more!
And in the end, he died alive. At eight o’clock in the
morning, Wang Wei and I ran to the canteen
as soon as we heard the news, but at that time Chen Mingjie’s body had already been taken away, and we could only wait and see for
a long time.
Wang Wei looked at his cell phone and then said with glassy eyes,
“The school has reported that the police found no suspicious traces at the scene, so
Xiao Ming is..” “Suicide.” My whole person is not good:
“Would you kill yourself in this way?”
Wang Wei also sighed:
“I also feel incredible, this is too horrible..” How could
Xiao Ming be like this? Is it not.. Is it a ghost?
My mind was in a whirl, both sad at the loss of a friend and terrified at the weirdness of it
.
Wang Wei seemed to be aware of my fear.He lowered his voice and asked cautiously,
“When it comes to ghosts, isn’t it..” With what we did that night.. Is it relevant
?
Mention the four words “that night,” and I immediately knew what Wang Wei was talking about. A few days before the
start of school, several of our good friends who arrived at school early went to
the back hill of the school one night.
For some reason, we did something special.
But we never talked about it again. We each gained something after
that night, even though neither of us can explain
whether it was related to that night or not. But how can vested interests pay so much attention?
So none of us want to recall it, and none of us want to mention it.
If it really had anything to do with “that night,” then besides Chen Ming-chieh, there was another
person who was also with us.
Wu Xiaopeng. The
four of us are a small group. We all know each other in the club. Wang Wei and I are in the same class,
while Chen Mingjie and Wu Xiaopeng are in other majors. I didn’t have
time to have breakfast, so I picked up the phone and contacted Wu Xiaopeng and asked him to
come out and meet him right away.
Wu Xiaopeng, of course, also heard about Chen Mingjie, so he immediately accepted the appointment.
It is in the small pavilion beside the artificial lake of the school. After the
meeting, Wu Xiaopeng, with a shocked expression, said very calmly that
he had gone to communicate with Chen Mingjie’s roommates early in the morning, and that Chen Mingjie did have something wrong
last night. He was looking for something to eat all night, snacks and fruit instant noodles in the dormitory. He ate up everything he could
eat.
His roommates were also shocked because he didn’t
show anything wrong last night except that he was hungry.
Wang Wei, on the other hand, expressed his doubts
with a sullen look: “Just hungry?”? Are you so hungry that you eat yourself to death? Isn’t that outrageous? Wu Hsiao-peng also suddenly became excited:
“That’s why I said, ah, how could I just be hungry? There must be something unclean
..” It must be! On
this point, he thought the same as Wang Wei and I.
But I was thinking more.
While everyone was together, I also said what I thought:
“That Wang Wei, what you said yesterday, what happened in the hotel on Central Road, was
that couple..” They ate each other and died, right?
Wang Wei was stupefied and then asked,
“What’s the matter?”? Do you think that thing.. Does it have anything to do with what’s going on with Xiaoming now?
“Don’t you think the two things are a little similar?” I explained as I
tried to hold back my hair, which was about to stand up? The couple couldn’t stop eating each other
, and Xiao Ming couldn’t stop eating either. And most importantly,
none of them seem to know what “pain” is. It’s all the same weird, okay?
Wang Wei was stunned:
“This..”
Wu Hsiao-peng immediately chimed in: “I think it makes sense, and besides, they’re all from our school,
so maybe they’re..” Then
I asked Wang Wei very seriously,
“You said that the couple were the elder brothers and sisters of the master’s students, right?”? Do you know their names
?
“It’s such a big deal. It’s easy to find a name, but..” Wang Wei paused
and immediately guessed my intention. “Do you want to know if they have
been to the back hill of the school?” Did you do those things?
I nodded to confirm that this is very important.
“All right, I’ll look for their friends around them first.” After
saying this, Wang Wei immediately took out his cell phone and sat down on the stone bench next to him.
Wu Hsiao-peng was already in a bit of a panic, and even began to talk nonsense:
“If it was really that night, that..” Then we also..
“Let’s not jump to conclusions. We don’t necessarily have anything to do with it. Let’s find out whether it’s
true or not.” Then
I could only change the subject:
“By the way, Xiaopeng, have you done anything special these days?”
Wu Hsiao-peng nodded and said what should have been a happy thing as if he were mourning:
“Yes, besides picking up my wallet the next day after I came back, I also won a big prize the day before yesterday..”
Sure enough.
At this time, Wang Wei suddenly opened his mouth and sent a message:
Yes, I found a friend of the couple on Tieba. In the past period of time, he kept posting questions about the weird thing, and of course, he kept being deleted. She’s a senior sister of our school who claims to be the best friend of the dead girl. I got in touch with her. Do you want to make an appointment with her?
I observed Wu Xiaopeng a little and felt that his mental state was too bad, so I turned to Wang Wei and said,
“Let’s go and talk to her. Xiaopeng, you are quite familiar with Xiaoming. You can ask his friends if he has got something for nothing like you these days.” For the time being, we can’t determine whether it was that night’s problem, but if it was, none of us could escape, so we must know everything, understand?
Wu Xiaopeng answered lifelessly and then turned away.
Wang Wei also stood up and said,
“She is in the library. Shall we go there?”
“Yes, right away.” Facing the sunshine,
I walked calmly in the direction of the library. But in fact, I’m not as calm as I show.
Because I know that if there are ghosts in the hills behind the school, then.
Then none of the four of us can escape. In the
library. The person
we want to see is a beautiful woman.
Her name is Lin Yilan, the senior sister of Yanyi. Although
her dress is simple, she has a kind of classical temperament that is hard to find nowadays, and her gestures
are gentle and elegant.
She doesn’t know many things, but she firmly believes that her best friend can’t commit suicide, and there must be something hidden in
it.
We also told her what happened to our friend Chen Mingjie, and then asked her if she knew
anything about the couple, especially if they had ever been to the back
hill of the school. After hearing this,
Lin Yi-lan was quite surprised:
“What is the back hill?”? I may not be too clear about this. All I know is that they didn’t kill
themselves.. Is there anything unclean in the back of the mountain?
Sure enough, she also suspected that her friend had been killed by something unclean.
I could only explain nervously,
“We don’t know if it’s haunted, but Xiaoming hasn’t experienced anything special recently, except a trip to the back hill..” I just want to see if these two things have more to do with each other than eating.
“Two things?” Lin Yi-lan frowned. “It’s not as simple as two things.” I felt
a shock in my heart.
Wang Wei also looked suspicious, presumably he did not think of Lin Yilan’s elder sister, but also knew something more strange.
That young couple is really not the beginning of the matter. During the holidays before
returning to school, two students had already committed suicide in a strange way.
One is that after eating all the food at home, he swallowed all the medicines for the old people at home, and finally died peacefully in his sleep.
If the last one looks like a suicide, the second one is out of line.
This classmate’s hometown is in the mountains of the countryside. There are no shops within a radius of dozens of kilometers. The granary at home is locked all the year round for fear of wild animals stealing food, so it can’t be pried open. One
night, he got up and collected all the food in the house and swallowed it, but he was still not satisfied. Then he ran out of the house, went to the hill behind the house, and dug up the bodies of his relatives who had been buried not long ago. When his family found him, he had no breath. He was suffocated to death because his bones blocked his trachea
.
At that time, the scene could directly frighten people to faint, and the villagers agreed that it was filth at
work, and even invited the master to go up the mountain to do it, which made a lot of trouble.
But the police can only give a conclusion of suicide, because they can not come up with a stronger
explanation.
The two students are both first-year graduate students of our school, and they are very good friends with the
young couple who eat each other to death in the hotel. It
was because of this that Lin Yilan decided that these things were not simple, and she also found
that all strange things had this in common-
eating crazily, eating everything.
I don’t know the pain, I don’t care about the consequences.
If only one person is crazy, it is fine to say, but one person after another is
crazy, it is absolutely abnormal.
This is also the
main reason why she keeps posting on the Internet, denying that her friends committed suicide. My hair stood on end when I
heard it, and I almost concluded that we were cursed!
But still not quite give up, or hope to be able to find out more: “Elder Martial Sister, then you can go to ask, just you said a few brothers and sisters,
they have no possibility.” Have you been to the back hill before? Besides, did they
ever.. Be luckier all of a sudden, or get something different
?
Lin Yilan’s face changed.
“Why do you repeatedly struggle with this point in the back hill?”? Is the hill behind the school really
haunted?
I hesitated to speak, because to be honest, I don’t know if it’s really haunted.
It’s just that what we’ve done there is really very likely to offend ghosts
and gods!
Lin Yilan suddenly understood,
“You’ve all been there, right?”? Are you worried.. You’re gonna die, too? What on
earth is on the back hill?
I’m hesitating to say.
Wang Wei, however, was the first to interrupt, saying
, “Well, it’s really hard to say.” Elder Martial Sister, why don’t you go and confirm it first.
Then we can have a definite direction. Isn’t it?
Wang Wei also did not want to mention what we did that night.
I looked at him, and he was livid, and I believe I was, too. Lin Yilan saw that we were not in good condition and could only nod suspiciously. After
leaving the library, the time has come to noon, although the sun outside is very warm,
but I really feel cold back. For the
rest of the time, Wang Wei and I didn’t dare to go anywhere. We could only stay in the dormitory to look up information
and chat with each other.
I was also very upset, and my cell phone rang at the wrong time, and I hung up several
times in a row.
Wang Wei seemed to notice my abnormality and suddenly asked me,
“Li Jiang, your mother’s illness..” Is it getting better?
They always knew that my mother was diagnosed with cancer six months ago, which was terminal and almost incurable
.
“Well, yes, the doctors said it was a miracle, because my mother’s recent physical examination showed
that her cancer cells were slowly receding, and she should be better..”
That’s what I’m talking about, vested interests. Each of
us got something that was unlikely to get that night.
I got the result I wanted. Wang Wei, this wretched man, actually waited for the flower to express his love and
went to open a room within two days. Wu Xiaopeng is unlikely to have
a lot of money at his age. Although I don’t know what Chen Mingjie got, he should also have it.
That’s why I suspected it was a curse in the first place, because we’ve seen
things that can’t be explained.
Soon, night fell.
Wu Xiaopeng did not reply to my WeChat, upset I could not help but make a phone
call.
Strangely, the phone was not connected.
“What’s going on..?”
I put down my cell phone and muttered to myself. As soon as
Wang Wei saw me like this, he hurriedly approached me and asked,
“What’s wrong?”
“No one answers Xiaopeng’s phone.” As soon as
my words fell, Wang Wei immediately took out his phone and called Wu Xiaopeng, but
the result was the same —
he could get through, but no one answered.
He panicked a little.
“What’s going to happen?” When he said that, I suddenly became nervous.
But for a while there is no other way, I can only continue to dial Wu Xiaopeng’s phone
number.
Fortunately, after dialing several times in a row, the phone was finally connected!
I finally breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately sternly questioned Wu Hsiao-peng on the other end of the phone:
“Hsiao-peng, what are you doing? Why don’t you answer the phone?”? We’ve been worried sick!
However, a strange female voice came from the phone:
“Well, I’m sorry, I’m not the Xiaopeng you said, I just picked up this
mobile phone on the ground..” My heart,
which I had just put down, immediately hung up again:
“Who are you?”? No, where did you find the phone?
I’ve just finished dinner, and now I’m on the way to the girls’ dormitory in Food Street. Is the
mobile phone your friend’s? Are you coming to get it now?
“Now!” When I heard the word
“food street,” I was already a little scared.
So I quickly hung up the phone and dragged Wang Wei out of the dormitory and ran in the direction
of the school food street. On the way, we successfully found the kind girl who had just talked to me and retrieved Wu
Xiaopeng’s mobile phone.
But the girl had never seen Wu Xiaopeng at all. She just happened to pass by and heard her cell phone ringing
and picked it up in the flower garden.
I could only drag Wang Wei to the food street to look for it.
At this time, it was already past seven o’clock in the evening, and it was the time when the food street was busy. Wang Wei and
I acted separately, shuttling through one restaurant and stall after another, but
after searching nearly half of the food street, we still failed to see the shadow of Wu Xiaopeng.
By this time, I was already worried about whether he would eat hogwash
like Chen Mingjie in the back kitchen of a restaurant.
So I walked faster and found it more hurriedly.
In a hurry, suddenly a familiar figure flashed by in the crowd.
Lin Yilan?
But I wasn’t sure if it was her, because the next second Wang Wei was shouting,
“Li Jiang!”! Hsiao Peng is here! When
I turned around to search in the crowd, Lin Yilan’s figure had already disappeared, and I must
have been wrong. At this time, Wu Xiaopeng was sitting at a table at a barbecue stand. He raised his head and looked at Wang Wei with a confused
face.
I trotted over, and as soon as I saw his completely unnervous face, I was so angry that I scolded him
directly and mercilessly:
“What the hell are you doing?”? Don’t you know if you lose your mobile phone? In addition, today I want you to ask
Xiaoming about his recent situation these days. Why is there no news at all?
Wu Hsiao-peng paused and replied dejectedly,
“I’m just hungry..”
This?
Not to mention me, Wang Wei was confused by his calm and relaxed posture. Only
then did I realize that the huge table in front of
Wu Xiaopeng was full of food scraps!
But he’s alone. He was
the only one who ate so much?
Wang Wei’s expression was dull.
Wu Hsiao-peng swallowed his saliva and went on to explain, “I went to ask Hsiao-ming’s classmates in the afternoon, and they all said that he had been..”
Nothing unusual.
Looking at the expression on his face, I felt a shock in my heart. Things must be bad.
Wang Wei asked directly in reply:
“Do you still want to eat this?”
Wu Hsiao-peng gave a simple and honest smile and nodded, not feeling anything wrong
with him at all: “Yes, yes, are you here for dinner, too?”? The food I just had was
very good. I haven’t had enough. Would you like to come with me? After
saying this, Wu Xiaopeng stood up and seemed to have to go to the stall owner to order food.
The biggest problem is that he doesn’t know if there’s something wrong with him!
I quickly held him down and shouted at him,
“No, you can’t continue to eat!” After
saying this, I winked at Wang Wei.Wang Wei was very sensible and lifted his arm from the other side.Each
of us planned to drag him directly out of the food street.
Wu Hsiao-peng was still puzzled
: “What are you doing?”? Okay, okay, if you don’t eat, you don’t eat, and you don’t have to pinch me
like this.. Does he even feel innocent? Wu Xiaopeng, who was still in a state of anxiety and fear in the
morning, is now enjoying delicious food in a leisurely
way?
Are you kidding me? I can’t believe he’s okay.
Fortunately, his symptoms are not too serious, otherwise he will not go with us.
It’s just that Wang Wei and I are still worried.
If we just send Wu Xiaopeng back to the dormitory, what if
he sneaks out to die like Chen Mingjie last night?
So, together, we opened a room in the school hostel and prepared to watch Wu Xiaopeng all night
.
But the biggest problem has not been solved-
since Wu Xiaopeng has begun to show the symptoms of hunger, then we and Wang
Wei.. Can
we be far behind?
I swallowed my saliva in silence.
If that happens, will I be able to control my appetite?
I don’t have an answer. It’s almost nine o’clock in the evening. Wang Wei and
I thought hard, but we couldn’t come up with any constructive solutions.
This is the most fatal, we can still look at Wu Xiaopeng sober, but if we also suddenly
attack? Then I’m afraid
this room will be hell for the three of us.
But even so, Wu Xiaopeng is still bored lying in bed, there is no sense of
tension.
Even though his stomach had been bulging and had not been digested, he kept
saying that he was hungry and wanted to eat.
By this time, I was 100% sure that this was the damn curse! I
had no choice but to call Lin Yilan, hoping that she would have good news after an afternoon
.
Who knows? There is. Without saying anything superfluous,
Lin Yilan directly asked Wang Wei and me to go to the library
for an interview, saying that she had made an important discovery. After
putting down the phone, I discussed with Wang Wei for a while and felt that I could not put Wu Xiaopeng
here, otherwise I was still afraid that he would have an accident.
So two people together, directly found a rope to tie up Wu Xiaopeng, let him lie quietly
in bed to sleep, nothing to think, nothing to do. Although Wu Xiaopeng was noisy, he could not resist the two rough men. Fortunately
, he did not completely fall into the hunger of madness and dementia, so the resistance was not
too fierce. After
settling Wu Xiaopeng, Wang Wei and I rushed to the library without stopping and found Lin Yilan on the appointed
balcony. She really didn’t say a word of nonsense. When she saw us
, she anxiously opened
her mouth: Some of my friends did go to the back hill one night, and
I found a legend about the back hill. Halfway
through, she paused and stared at me.
I couldn’t wait to pick up her topic and ask,
“Legend?”? Is it the legend about’eating bones and making wishes’?
Lin Yilan immediately asked,
“I knew it!”! What exactly did you do? What is a bone-eating wish?
I was stunned for a moment, facing Lin Yilan’s questioning, it was impossible to muddle through.
We have to confess.
So I told you what happened that night..
In those days, we had nothing to do because we went back to school early, and we
played everywhere all day.
Drink, chat, talk about the depression of graduation, and talk about the problems they can’t solve. Everyone
is in urgent need of a miracle, such as me, if there is no miracle, then I will soon have no mother.
And Chen Ming-chieh suddenly mentioned that he knew a way to get a “miracle,” but the process would be more..
Weird.
It’s a legend.
Legend has it that there was a village in the hill behind the school. One year, many people died in a natural disaster, and there were corpses everywhere.
At that time, someone invented a vicious ritual called “eating bones and making a wish,” in which a special corpse was refined into bones, and only a part of it was eaten, and then a wish was made.
Your wish will come true!
This is to rely on those ghosts who can not ascend to heaven after death to realize their wishes, which is an extremely vicious heretical way. When I
heard that the strange deaths were related to “eating”, I immediately associated them with this evil way.
However, at that time, the main reason why we believed such nonsense was that the person who told Chen Mingjie about it had just won the first prize of the double chromosphere, more than
10 million!
And twice in a row! Buy in
a row!
He dropped out of school. His
wish is to have more money than he can spend.
Chen Mingjie posted the pictures sent to him by the other party, which were indeed real photos
of winning the lottery.
We can’t help but be tempted.
After all, each of us has his own urgent desire, or desire,
to realize.
The man also told Chen Ming-chieh where the “special body” was: on the northern hillside of the
back hill, behind a mud house that had been in disrepair for a long time but had not collapsed.
We just need to have enough courage to realize our wishes!
Even if we are cheated, we want to have a try. Before graduation, shouldn’t we do something
crazy?
So that night, we went up the mountain with a flashlight. After searching for several times, it should have taken us an hour or two, and finally we found a
shabby mud house.
Of course, it was easy to find a simple grave behind the house.
The worst thing is, this grave has obviously been dug!
This means that the person who told Chen Mingjie about this did come not long ago.
That means.. There is a good chance that the story of
“eating bones and making a wish” is true.
So we quickly dug the grave out again, and there was no doubt
that we had found it.
An incomplete human skeleton.
This is more consistent with the story that Chen Mingjie heard.
So, we..
……
You, unexpectedly..? To do such an angry thing? Desecrate the bones? Even
the dead are not spared? After
listening to our story, Lin Yilan was shocked for a long time. Of course, if she wants to scold us, she has nothing to say. After all, we have done something that
people and gods are angry about.
A long time. “Do you know whose bones they were?”
She asked
. Shocked,
I quickly asked her,
“Did you even find this?”
Lin Yilan nodded and slowly told us
the “legend” she had found. It is true that there used to be a village deep in the mountains in
that area, a very poor place
.
At that time, there was a suffering family in the village, the elders died early, and the husband
of the young couple fell into the cliff and died when he went hunting in the mountains for food. There are only young
mothers and daughters less than one year old in the family. She can’t leave her children to work. Even survival
is a problem for both of them. When
the villagers saw this situation, they spontaneously organized to send her some food regularly,
which was a good thing at first.
But then, things changed.
A group of strong hunters took a fancy to the beauty of the young mother, so when they were delivering food, they got together and locked the poor mother in the house and insulted her in turn.
The woman chose to swallow her pride because she had to support her daughter, but once the desire of the men was opened, they could not take it back, and they violated the poor woman again and again under the guise of helping her.
For the sake of children and survival, women dare not speak out and can only endure it.
But the more unfortunate thing happened, the famine came, it was a winter, the snow blocked the mountains. There was a shortage of food in the
village, and the hunters’ children were starving to death, not to mention helping the women. It was extremely difficult for a
woman to have no help. She could only beg for food one by one so that her children would not starve to death.
However, the men who had bullied her were extremely surprised to see her appear in front of the door, and this surprise came from extreme guilt.
So these men, even if the family is short of food, still “kindly” give her some, so that she can survive.
However, they all knew that this was not the way to go on, although the woman did not mean to expose them, she just asked for food to feed her daughter. But during the famine, everyone’s family could not guarantee food supply, and in this case, it was
distributed to others?
Once or twice is OK, but too many times will definitely be suspected.
So, the group of men took advantage of the time to go hunting in the mountains to discuss countermeasures, and they made
a cruel decision together:
to get rid of the orphans and widows in order to avoid future trouble.
Moreover, they adopted a very terrible plan:
the group broke into the woman’s house, took her child, tied her up and sealed
her mouth, and then put the child into the pot in front of her.
Boil.
The woman fought frantically, but there was nothing she could do but watch her baby
being cooked alive.
She’s crazy.
Later, some people guarded the woman, while others took the body of the child to
the village head, spreading rumors that the woman was hungry and had cooked
and eaten her own child!
The village chief was frightened and hurriedly sent someone to find a Taoist priest from a nearby village.
It happened that the Taoist priest was also a charlatan with bad intentions. When he saw the body
of the baby and the mother who had gone mad, he decided that she was a hungry ghost. But in fact, this Taoist priest has other plans.
He asked people to lock the woman in the house, and he laid a spell outside the house, saying that as long as it was closed
for seventy-seven and forty-nine days, the hungry ghost could be starved to death.
Of course, it’s not the hungry ghost who dies in the end.
It’s the poor crazy woman. Treat hunger
with hunger, but don’t want to starve out more resentment.
Forty-nine days later, the whole house was in a mess. The fingernails of the woman’s ten fingers were all festering because of digging
the door. She could not escape. Finally, she starved into a mummy.
Of course, besides hunger, what women suffer more is the despair in
the process of starving to death.
But more than that, even if she was dead, the bad guys had no intention of letting
her go.
The Taoist priest.
He deliberately let the mad woman starve to death in order to get her desperate body. He pretended
to cross over women in the backyard of the house, but in fact he used a very vicious
spell in secret.
He refined the woman’s bones into a kind of elixir that could make people’s wishes come true
, and the last step of refining was to bury the bones in the earth for 49 days.
But the Taoist priest did not wait until that day. Because the woman turned into a fierce ghost and came back for revenge.
A real starving ghost.
The Taoist priest was the first to die. He ate all
the panacea in his house, and finally the poison turned into a pool of blood.
But the Taoist priest is not in the village.
No one knows that women turn into ghosts.
They thought it was over.
But how can there be such a good thing?
Slowly, there were often people in the village who suddenly became extremely hungry, especially the hunters who had bullied
women, and almost all of them were caught. Some of
them eat themselves to death.
Some of them ate their own family members.
Others even ate themselves and fainted in the middle of eating, but their mouths
were still chewing.
Before long, the village was completely deserted, all the damned were dead, and all
those who could escape had fled.
But women’s resentment is far from over. The houses in the village fell down one by one because of the wind, frost, rain and snow, but the woman’s house
was always there.
Because she didn’t leave, she stayed there, cursing everyone who bullied her
. After
listening to the story, Wang Wei’s voice trembled a little:
“Those who bullied her..” Just like us?
Lin Yilan nodded and said,
“Yes, I made it clear that my best friend and her boyfriend did go to the back hill..”
And it was with the other two people I mentioned earlier who died in a strange way. There’s another very important point
, don’t you know?
“What?”
“The classmate who died after taking home medicine won the first prize in the lottery twice.”
I was shocked:
“This!”! Isn’t this the friend of Chen Ming-chieh?
Lin Yilan nodded
silently again: “So everything can be connected.” I don’t know what they all wished for
, and I don’t want to know what you all wished for, but the result is the same. Will
the result be the same?
Then the three of us are dead, right?
No, no, no.
If there is a curse, there must be a way to break it, isn’t there?
I looked at Lin Yilan and asked very sincerely,
“Elder Martial Sister, if the story you found is true, then..” What are we gonna do? Can we just wait for death?
“That’s not..” Lin Yilan paused and seemed a little hesitant. “First, I declare that I will never go with you!”! I looked up the way the starving ghost crossed over, saying that he would take his favorite food to the place where he died to worship him. Because it has become a resentful spirit and cannot eat, it can only convey its hunger to others, so it has to go to the place where it died so that it can eat food. When it is full, the hungry ghost will not be hungry, and it will naturally be able to ascend to heaven. While
this sounds like a solution, there’s a crucial question stuck in my head:
“Favorite food?”? This How can I find out what that woman’s favorite food is?
Lin Yilan curled her lips and said,
“Of course it’s a specialty here. This land has always had the title of Apple Village, but in ancient times they were poor, and they could only eat wild fruits and wild vegetables and kill some wild animals. Apples are good fruits that can only be sold for money in exchange for food. They have no chance to get in touch with them.”
I was shocked that she could say so
much without any evidence.
Not only me, but even Wang Wei felt hallucinatory:
“This..” Is it true?
Lin Yi-lan, however, said confidently,
“I’ve done so much homework that I can’t be wrong. But think about it for yourself. Either you wait
for death, or you can have a try.”
I really panicked at that time.
Besides, I really can’t come up with a better plan. It’s better to go for it than to
be cursed?
I could only wave my hand heroically and shout at Wang Wei, who had a cowardly look on his face:
“Come on, let’s go and buy apples.”
The night is getting late, and the hill behind the school is very quiet. Wang Wei and
I foolishly groped our way up the mountain in the
dark, carrying apples and joss sticks in one hand and a flashlight in the other.
Fortunately, with the memory of a visit, we finally
found the standing mud house at about twelve o’clock. The place where she died was in the house. The scene of the
last expedition was still vivid in my mind, and I hesitated for a little while, fully
prepared to see the ghost later, before I entered the house. It was dark
inside, as if there was nothing, and as if there would be everything. Wang Wei and
I quickly propped up a broken table, set up the candles, lit them, and then
placed boxes of delicate apples in front of the incense and candles, lit the incense piously,
and knelt down with trepidation.
“Rest in peace,” he muttered.
“It’s how much we disturb..”
“Your Lordship has a great deal of..”
“Sorry, please don’t punish us..”
I’ve never seen a ghost in my life. How can I know how to cross
over? All
we can do is to keep admitting our mistakes.
The night is getting deeper and deeper, and the room has gradually changed from cool to cold.
For a moment.
I suddenly felt a chill behind me. I also suddenly stopped the action of continuing to kneel, and as it happened, Wang Wei also stopped
. I don’t know if
he has the same feeling, because we dare not speak and
communicate.
But I can feel something not far behind me!
Ture.
It not only exists.
It’s still moving
slowly. It’s walking slowly.
One step, two steps, three steps.
I didn’t know if I was hearing voices, because the room was silent, and
my ears obviously didn’t hear any sound coming in.
But in my head is the sound of footsteps! What’s going on here?
Accompanied by the sound of footsteps step by step, I can not help but have
goose bumps all over my body.
Wang Wei was even worse, and he even began to tremble all over.
But none of us had the courage to look back, to see if it was a person behind
us. How could anyone else come to a place like this on a night like this?
Then there is only.. A
ghost!
All of a sudden, I got a tap on the back of my head! I was so
scared that I almost jumped off the floor as a seven-foot man, but the
main reason why I couldn’t jump was probably because my legs were weak.
I was so frightened that I threw myself directly to one side, and even let out an ugly
scream and a cry for mercy in panic:
“Ah, ah!”! Don’t kill me! It was only
then that I discovered that Wang Wei’s reaction was almost exactly the same as mine, and that he, too, was
screaming:
“Help!”! Help! Whoa! Ah, ah, ah..
We were all about to cry as we rolled and crawled into the corner.
But I soon heard a silvery laugh behind me!
It brought me back to my senses in an instant, because the sound was familiar.
I plucked up my courage and turned my head to see
Lin Yilan standing in front of the candle! She was holding an apple in her hand, grinning and looking at us half lying on the ground
.
The flickering light of the fire made her figure a little trance.
I was dumbfounded-was
this guy trying to scare us?
We came to this place in the middle of the night according to her instructions, and she followed us
, just to frighten us?
At that moment, my anger immediately flared up. Pointing at her, I scolded her:
“Elder Martial Sister, you!”! Have you gone too far? We’ve already run into something abnormal. Why are you
still playing with us? Only then did
Wang Wei turn around and see Lin Yilan.Immediately, he also began to get angry:
“Damn it, I was so scared that I almost wet my pants!”! Why are you so out of line?
However, Lin Yilan didn’t explain anything. She didn’t even talk to us.
She just graciously put the apple to her mouth and bit into it, eating it with relish
. In the light of
the fire, her smiling face seemed to be very satisfied.
At that moment, I mistakenly thought that her satisfaction came from successfully playing tricks on our two big
men. But, having come to my senses, I couldn’t figure out the logic:
she was just a girl, how could she walk for an hour or
two to such a barren mountain in order to frighten us? Isn’t
she afraid?
Even if she is not afraid of ghosts and darkness, is she not afraid of being retaliated by us after playing tricks on us?
After all, this is a wild mountain!
It’s so weird.
This kind of weirdness even directly suppressed my anger.
I paused for a moment, then pretended to be calm and asked,
Elder Martial Sister? Say something! Why can’t you just say something and trick us into coming
here?
Lin Yilan still ignored me. She just concentrated on eating the apple. Soon,
she finished eating the whole apple.
My heart, more and more uneasy.
Wang Wei also became weak and asked weakly,
“Elder Martial Sister Yilan?”? You. Can you hear us? Lin Yilan finished eating an apple, put the apple core on the table, and reached for another apple on the table
.
During the whole process, she was all smiles, but now she could finally find
time to say to the two boys who were still sitting on the floor,
“Thank you, I can finally eat this.” With
these words, she began to eat the apple again, even without the image, as if
she were
a person who was too hungry. Wang Wei and
I were stunned.
The air became extremely cold again.
The light of the fire continued to sway, and Lin Yilan’s figure, movements, and expressions were all reflected
in the light of the fire.
Not like a person.
I suddenly remembered that when I went to the food street to look for Chen Mingjie tonight, I seemed to see Lin Yilan’s figure in the crowd
in a trance.
I thought I was dizzy.
But this time, I do not feel that it is dizzy, my heart suddenly gushed out a lot
of questions: Why Lin Yilan would be so enthusiastic to help us?
Why can she find out such
a detailed legend about the hungry ghost in the back hill of the school that we can’t find out?
Why did she know that the starving ghost’s favorite food was apples?
Why did she, a girl, dare to go up the mountain alone and appear here?
Unless.
I began to tremble all over, and I knew why when I first saw her, I felt that
she had a temperament that did not belong to this era.
Because she really doesn’t belong to this era!
Wang Wei also seemed to understand something. With a trembling voice, he asked,
“Elder Martial Sister, you..” Are you, are you, the woman who died here?
Lin Yilan did not speak, but kept eating apples, eating with great devotion and relish
.
I’m sorry! I’m sorry! I’m really sorry for what I did to you!
After finding out everything, I immediately kowtowed to Lin Yilan and begged
for mercy as if I were kneeling down to a God. I even expressed my difficulties:
“But, but I also want to save my mother!”! Just let me go! I’m not like them
! Please, please! Please! Wang Wei was stunned:
“What..?”? What are you talking about? Are you saying that I should die?
No way, in this case, I can only take care of myself.
Lin Yilan gently put the apple core on the table and asked me with a smile,
“What is the wish you made? Don’t I know?”
I was shocked in my heart.
Wang Wei also seemed to freeze. The wish
I made.. Doubtful,
Wang Wei asked,
“Didn’t you make a wish that your mother would be cured?”
Lin Yilan smiled and said,
“On the contrary, what he wished for was to let his mother die.”
“What?”
Wang Wei was surprised and stared at me.
I gritted my teeth and said nothing. That’s right.
In fact, my mother did not have cancer at all, but I have been telling my classmates about her illness,
so that the day she died, I could successfully complete the lie.
I am a child of a single parent family.
More unfortunately, my mother is a more terrible woman than my stepmother, and I was beaten by her
from childhood to adulthood.
They never gave me a penny, my tuition and living expenses were pitied
by my relatives, and I still owe a large amount of student loans to the university.
By the time I was about to graduate, I had planned to go to a strange city to find a job and
start a new life, away from my diabolical mother.
But she didn’t want to let me go.
She didn’t want to give me my account book, so I couldn’t leave her control.
She wants me to go back to my hometown, make money for her and wait on her, or she will do everything she can
to destroy my work and my life! She had already expressed this when
I was a junior, so even if there was no
such thing as a wish, I would plan to kill her.
Just don’t let anyone know I killed her.
Then I will live a normal life and have a good future. If these friends ask, I don’t have to explain too much. I just have to say that she died of cancer
.
But, but it happened that the “bone-eating wish” thing happened. Of course,
the wish I made in my heart was that she would die.
But on the surface, I can only pretend that my wish is to cure
my mother’s cancer..
Because that makes sense.
Actually, my mom died a few days ago. I don’t
even want to go back to deal with her death, which is why I’ve been hanging up
some phone calls these days.
I couldn’t help but raise my head and stare at Lin Yilan.
Lin Yilan laughed with great contempt.
Then she asked us softly,
“Aren’t you hungry, you scum?”
This sentence, like a sword, pierced my heart directly.
Aren’t you hungry? I
didn’t say it, but my answer was-hungry.
I’m hungry.
Very hungry. Very hungry. Can not
say the reason, at this moment, my dizzy brain has only one word:
hungry.
I slowly turned around and stared at Wang Wei. At this time, he looked really..
“You seem to be very delicious.”
Wang Wei also turned his head to look at me, and he looked at me as if he were staring at a delicious dish
.
He said, “So are you. You look delicious, too.”
We were very close to each other.
He can jump over immediately, and of course I can jump over.
I don’t have any other ideas. I just want to eat him.
Even if Wang Wei bites my shoulder, I don’t feel any pain.
Because the muscles in his arms are really delicious.
His blood is sweet, too. Not to mention the tenacity and chewiness of the hand tendon.
Flesh and blood are flying everywhere.
But we don’t care.
We just want to eat.
Eat.
Keep eating.
Even out of the corner of my eye, under the candlelight, Lin Yilan has gradually faded from her beautiful skin
, leaving only a completely shriveled body, a horrible body
starved to the extreme.
I don’t feel anything either. Nothing makes people happier
than eating.
Lin Yilan continued to grab the beautiful apple on the table and ate it happily.
And Wang Wei also ate happily. Of course
I’m happy, because I’m eating too. In the
increasingly weak candle, everyone is very happy. Early
the next morning, Wu Xiaopeng was found dead on the grass
under the window of the school hostel, and the rope tied to him was not untied.
He had obvious fall injuries and should have jumped from the window.
But it’s not a fatal wound.
Because the cause of his death was eating too much grass!
Li Jiang and Wang Wei, on the other hand, disappeared and were never seen again.
As for Lin Yilan? There is no such person
in the school.
The hungry ghost would not have come to the world, but the world created it.
Hungry ghosts will not curse others at will. It is the evil done by others that offends them first.
