Chapter 19 Soul Chasing Night

Since childhood, my mother has paid special attention to my learning. After pulling me up, my mother's first words were: "Have you done your homework?"

I said "No", and went back to the bedroom to do my homework.

It’s strange that I felt dizzy all morning, but as soon as I sat in front of the desk, I suddenly became very awake. I didn’t think much about it at that time, and took the textbook and exercise books from my schoolbag and started doing my summer homework.

Actually, I still can’t understand that elementary school students should play during summer vacations, so why should they assign homework? The key is that we did the summer vacation homework at that time from the first day of the holiday, and it was not finished until the start of school.

But during this summer vacation, if it weren't for such a summer homework that could never be done, the inheritance of the Shuzheng lineage would have been broken in the generation of Lao Chaitou. The summer homework that could never be done saved my life, or in other words, the gadgets on the desk saved me. These little things made by Lao Chaitou themselves were all touched with a unique spiritual charm of the Shuzheng lineage.

This summer vacation can be regarded as the most boring summer vacation in my elementary school years. I won’t finish my summer homework. I can’t talk about it. There is only one TV station. Because my family has no money, my father has never installed a closed route, and there are no children of similar age in the entire community. I held it alone at home for two and a half months, and almost got a problem with me.

During these days, the people I miss the most are Lao Chaitou and my uncle.

In other words, during the past two months, my father and my mother kept getting sick, although they were not seriously ill, either oral ulcers or rashes on their bodies, or they would have mild headaches. These diseases would hardly affect daily life, but they would be uncomfortable in the end.

In addition, during the past two months, our family has become particularly sleepy, especially my mother. She has to get up at four or five o'clock every morning and always says she can't sleep enough.

However, no one cares about these abnormalities, big or small, and is too lazy to care about them.

This situation lasts until the last night of the holiday.

That day, I went to bed at nine o'clock as usual. This summer vacation, I slept very hard every night, but I don't know what happened that day. I tossed and turned in the bed for a long time but couldn't sleep. But the more I couldn't sleep, the more I felt sleepy.

It felt very strange, just like I was clearly awake, but I felt like I was in a dream.

It was about midnight, and the wind suddenly blew outside the window. The wind was very strong, and there were "whimper" sounds from time to time in the gap between the window and the window edges. In this sound, I vaguely heard a woman's crying. At first I didn't hear it very clearly, but I only knew that someone was muttering something while crying. But slowly, the crying became clear, and I clearly heard a woman repeating and saying: "I have no grudges and no grudges with you, why do you want to harm me?"

There was a strong resentment in her tone, and the sound was gloomy, making people's scalp numb. In addition, I felt that these words seemed to be saying to me. I felt that there seemed to be a pair of eyes staring at me outside the window. I closed my eyes and didn't look outside the window, but I just felt that there were eyes there.

At this moment, the window was suddenly knocked, making a particularly rapid "dongdong" sound, and all the hairs behind me stood up.

Then I heard a "clang" sound, and the window that was originally locked inside was pushed open.

I knew it would be useless to pretend to be asleep, so I quickly got up from the bed. When I got up, I glanced at the window and saw a woman in a red dress with her hair loose and crawling into the room along the window. I couldn't see her face clearly, but I knew that she was staring at me with a very sad look.

When I lived in Wangzhuang before, Lao Chai Tou had handed me some ways to deal with evil spirits, but I was afraid and nervous at the time and couldn't remember anything. The first thing I did after getting out of bed was to run to the desk and try to catch a gadget given by Lao Chai Tou. At that time, I didn't know that these gadgets could be used to ward off evil spirits, but these gadgets could at least make me feel a little relieved.

But when I rushed to the desk, I found that there was nothing but a lamp on the desk. All the gadgets that Lao Chaitou gave me were gone!

I was immediately panicked, but I saw that the woman had crawled in through the window. My mind was almost blank at that time, but I hadn't forgotten to escape.

After I came out of the bedroom, I wanted to rush into my parents' room. My parents never closed the door when they sleep at night, but on that day, their bedroom door was locked and I couldn't push it open no matter how hard I tried.

The woman followed me out of the bedroom. She walked very slowly, but she was getting closer and closer to me. Her skirt was as red as blood. I just took a look and was shook by the blood. Then I felt dizzy. I stood there and watched her walk towards me step by step.

"Still standing there! Run!"

I don’t know who shouted in my ear, and then I came to my senses, opened the door, ran out wearing a pair of boxer pants.

After leaving the door, the woman in a red dress was still following me with a ghost behind her back. I didn't know where to run. I just looked up and saw a very bright moon in the night sky, so I ran towards the moon.

I ran barefoot on the road. Every time the soles of my feet touched the ground, I felt a particularly unreal feeling. It seemed that the ground was made of cotton. My feet were on it, and the soles of my feet were about to sink into the ground. And every time the soles of my feet touched the ground, I felt my knees were numb and soft, as if I didn't use any effort at all.

I felt that I was not running fast, but the surrounding scenery quickly moved behind me. Before I knew it, I seemed to have run through most of the county town and the path of Wangzhuang. From a distance, I saw a very old dirt house on the Lunge Mountain.

It's Lao Chaitou's family!

The moment I saw the earthen house, I felt a sense of peace of mind, but for some reason, I always felt something was wrong.

At this time, I looked back and saw the woman in red standing in the distance. I couldn't see her face clearly, only knowing that she was staring at me fiercely, and the moonlight shone on her, but it didn't leave any shadow behind her.

She is not a human!

Although I had long guessed that she was an evil spirit, when I found that she had no shadow, I couldn't help but tremble.

The door of Lao Chaitou's house was right in front of me. I almost didn't think about it, so I raised my hand and smashed the door hard.

Just as I was knocking on the door, I heard someone shouting me behind my back: "Don't knock..."

From the voice I could tell that the person who called this time was the same person who asked me to escape before.

"Hey, can you see me?" the voice asked me anxiously.

I couldn't see her, so I shook my head, but I always felt that the sound sounded familiar in my heart.

Then I heard her sigh and said, "Oh, I've been hit, I can't help but feel wronged."

As soon as I finished speaking, I felt a chill coming from my left arm. Then, the surrounding scenery changed suddenly. The graves disappeared and the old Chaitou family disappeared. I found myself standing in front of the door of Mrs. Li’s house, with my hands still on their door.

And beside me, there was a little girl who looked about my age and was carved with jade. I recognized her. The last time I encountered a flying zombie at the entrance of the village, she was the one who saved me. At this time, the little girl was grabbing my left arm.

Just as I was about to speak, the little girl made a gesture to me to silence, and then said proudly: "Look, I saved you again, how should you repay me? Don't talk! I know you want to say, but I can't stand your yang energy. Okay, okay, go home quickly. This Mr. Li is not a good thing. You have to go to Mr. Chai for your business. By the way, when you see Mr. Chai, don't say that you have seen me. Also, when you get home, hurry up and remove the lock on the door beam! That's it, bye!"

After saying this, the little girl disappeared. I wondered if she had actually appeared just now. I looked behind me again, and there was nothing behind her, so there was no female ghost!

At this time, the footsteps of Mrs. Li came from the yard. She was walking, muttering something in her mouth. I couldn't understand what she was saying, but as soon as her voice sounded in the yard, I felt a little drowsy in my mind.

I didn't dare to stop at the door of Mrs. Li's house, so I hurried back home.

As soon as I got home, I found a mop from the kitchen and picked off the copper lock on the door beam. When the copper lock fell to the ground, it made a lot of noise, waking up my dad and my mom.

I heard my dad sitting up from the bed, and then I heard my mom shouting to me: "Yangyang, what are you doing?"

I didn't respond, so I ran into the bedroom and looked at my desk. Fortunately, the treasures that Lao Chaitou gave me were still there. In this way, I felt relieved and ran into my parents' bedroom, threw myself on my dad, and started crying.

After many years, when I look back, I still admire myself very much. At that time, I was only eight years old. When I saw the female ghost in red, I was almost frightened and collapsed. Then I still forced myself to go home in one breath, removed the copper lock, and saw that the things Lao Chaitou gave me did not throw away. It was not until everything was handled that I started to collapse.

That night, I kept sobbing, and I couldn't remember how I explained the whole story clearly. I just vaguely remembered that I seemed to have told a lie, hiding that the little girl had appeared.

Afterwards, my dad put the copper lock into a small box and placed the box in the drawer of the TV cabinet.

That night, the three of us spent the whole family of three in fear and did not dare to turn on the lights, for fear that Old Lady Li would see it, and at the same time, he held his ears and listened to the movements outside, for fear that Old Lady Li would come to him.
