138 A ghost in the middle of the night
On a bright moonlit night, the village was quiet, and occasionally the sound of donkeys shoveling their hooves can be heard.
What made Huang Er'er upset was that she suddenly felt her stomach hurt when she was sleeping in the middle of the night. It must be because she was greedy yesterday and finished the pack of spicy tablets in one breath.
Huang Er'er thought to herself that at the third update in the middle of the night, the silence outside made her panic.
She wanted to wake up her sleeping son, but she couldn't bear to disturb her when she saw that her son was sleeping so soundly.
Forget it, put on her clothes. She gently opened the door and carefully walked out of the door.
With a creaking sound, the courtyard door opened. She looked out the door for a few seconds. After confirming that there was no sign of movement, she ran out of the door.
After running less than ten meters, she saw another person appearing in the shadow of the moonlight.
Suddenly a stream of hot sweat oozed out of her body. She stopped and stood there and dared not look back.
She secretly glanced at the shadow on the ground, and he stopped.
At this time, Huang Er'er remembered the often-telling "ghost".
It is said that ghosts are specially selected to go out at night, so they must be wrong. It seems that they have encountered the real one tonight.
She trembled and asked, "Is it a ghost? Don't harm me, I'm a good person."
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard an answer: "I'm worried that you're scared, so I'll come out to accompany you!"
In an instant, she almost fainted.
This ghost can communicate with people, isn’t it said that humans and ghosts have different paths? Why? Ghosts have also learned to speak Chinese?
She cried and said, "I'm not afraid, you go back quickly, okay?"
"good!"
She heard footsteps getting farther and farther from behind her.
"Are you leaving?" Huang Er'er asked tentatively.
He didn't hear the response, Huang Er'er looked back and saw nothing.
Only then did she remember the stomachache.
After going to the toilet, Huang Er'er quickly ran to home.
As soon as she ran into the yard, she turned around and saw someone standing in front of her, scaring her to death.
ah……
A scream echoed in the quiet night sky.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?" Huang Er'er's son looked at her strangely.
Huang Er'er opened her eyes and saw that it was her lovely son.
She was crying and said to her son, "Why did you run out?"
The little boy replied: "Mom, I heard you go out and worried that you are afraid, so I got up and accompany you!"
"Yeah, my good son, go, hurry back! Let's go back to the house!"
A few days later, it was rumored that ghost fire appeared on the back mountain at night.
There was a lot of controversy in the village, and everyone in the village was frightened.
Huang Er'er heard the rumors from others and remembered her experience that night.
She said to the aunt: "Everyone says that I saw ghost fire. Not only did I see ghost fire, but I also really saw ghosts!"
The aunt asked in surprise: "What? Er'er, don't scare people! The aunt is timid."
Huang Er'er said: "Auntie, I didn't lie to you! I did meet a ghost one night! I even talked to the ghost!"
Huang Er'er's experience was transmitted to the ears of the whole village through the aunt's mouth.
There was a cadre in the village who thought to himself, is there really a ghost in the world? But he absolutely doesn't believe it.
"Fuquan, the crops in the mountains behind our village were stolen! You said that the haunted thing was so great at night, what should I do?" An old man reported to the village cadre.
Fuquan thought, there was definitely something strange about this.
He organized several young village cadres in the village to discuss countermeasures and prepare to see the true faces of these ghosts at night.
A few of them lurked in the crops in the back mountain, waiting for the ghost to appear.
In the second half of the night, everyone in the village went to bed.
"Look, the ghost has indeed appeared!"
A cadre whispered to his colleagues around him.
Fuquan said: "Don't alert the snake! Let these ghosts reveal their true colors first."
In the night, several red lanterns moved from the mountain to the bottom.
"Fuquan, can't it really be a ghost, right?" asked a cadre.
Fuquan cursed: "Superstition, you really believe that there are ghosts! Wait quietly."
Half an hour later, the red lantern arrived at the foot of the mountain, less than twenty meters away from Fuquan and the others.
Suddenly, the red lantern was gone.
"Fuquan, it's not good. How did it be destroyed?"
Fuquan whispered: "It's about to come out, wait!"
Fuquan looked at the watch and said to the cadres hiding in the fields: "Comrades, turn on the flashlight when you act!"
Flashlights shine brightly on the night sky.
"What's the matter?" Fuquan shouted loudly.
I saw a group of people fleeing from the fields in panic.
"Don't let them run away! Catch them!"
Under the siege of cadres, several strange-shaped "ghosts" dressed up were caught.
"Heroes, spare us!" A "ghost" knelt on the ground.
Fuquan shines the man with a flashlight.
Question: "Why do you want to pretend to be a ghost and steal other people's crops?"
This man replied: "Hero!"
Fuquan interrupted and said, "Don't call us heroes, we are cadres in this village."
"What we rural people fear the most is ghosts. When we want to pretend to be ghosts, no one dares to doubt anything!" the man replied.
Fuquan ordered: "Take these people back and hand them over to the police station when dawn."
Those who pretended to be a ghost beg for mercy and said, "Leader, be kind! It's not easy to have old people and young people at home!"
Fuquan cursed: "Bastard! You also know that there are old people and young people! I miss you as a fellow villager in the country, so I will let you go! But you must wait until dawn to give the people an explanation!"
After dawn, everyone watched these living ghosts and realized what was going on in the ghost fire I saw on the mountain every night.
"My fellow villagers, don't believe in ghosts in the future! This is the legendary ghost! You can't be superstitious anymore!" Fuquan said to everyone.
Huang Er'er asked in confusion: "Fuquan, then what the hell did you think I met that night?"
Fuquan smiled and said, "You probably met your own shadow?"
Huang Er'er said: "Impossible! How could my own shadow speak!"
Fuquan hesitated and said, "I can't figure it out!"
At this time, Huang Er'er's son said to Huang Er'er: "Mom, I was the one who spoke that night!"
"Ah! Don't talk nonsense, why didn't you tell me earlier!"
The little boy said, "I have been following you all the time. But you just ignore me!"
Fuquan said: "Look! Look! There are no ghosts in this world."
A young man asked, "Fuquan, what should these people do? They even stole crops from our village."
Fuquan said to everyone: "That's right, let them compensate us for our losses. As for them, let them go! I think they will never dare to do it again, after all, it's not easy for everyone."
