The story I am going to tell you today is related to the so-called "underworld". Maybe in everyone's cognition, this thing only appears in horror novels, and does not exist in real life. In fact, I also thought so at the beginning, but when I heard this friend's story, I realized that the underworld does really exist, but we rarely see it in our daily life.
That was many years ago. I remember I was still in college at that time. I thought carefreely every day about how I would spend my time, whether playing games or going out with others. In my opinion, studying didn’t have much meaning. It was nothing more than spending money to get a diploma. Whether my future life would be good or bad would not change at all because of this certificate.
The current employment situation is too grim, and I am very open-minded, so I immediately gave up the idea of getting up, covered myself with the quilt and continued to sleep. I have to say that I admire myself for coming up with so many ridiculous reasons to excuse myself for staying in bed. Just when I was about to continue sleeping, my unlucky roommate slapped me in the face. It hurt so much that I wanted to jump out of bed and kick him in the face, but I finally held back. Why? Because he was too strong, and I couldn't beat him with my small body.
"Lao Li, did you go crazy after sleeping? Why do you have nothing better to do than slap me? What a shame?" Although I couldn't beat him, I would not admit defeat verbally. But the other party just smiled and took out two photos.
When I first saw the picture on this photo, I was surprised. I didn't understand why this guy made a landscape picture for me. But when I saw the second photo, I suddenly understood: "Why did you make this for me? Two identical base pictures, and you photoshopped a ghost on them to scare me? You are too funny, right? Get out of here, I still need to sleep."
"You are too naive. I didn't photoshop this picture. It was taken when I was traveling abroad. I didn't pay attention to these things some time ago. I went to the photo studio today to develop it and found that there was something strange in this photo. Did you see it? This face, you may think it may be a mistake in the photography, but I tell you, I have seen this face on a tombstone before." Lao Li's tone gradually became heavy when he spoke, and his whole face was tense. To be honest, I have never seen this kid so nervous: "I didn't intend to tell you, but now I have to."
I remember it was during the summer vacation this year. Lao Li was bored staying in the dormitory alone, but he didn’t want to go home to see his father’s serious face, so Lao Li bought a plane ticket online and then quietly went to a deserted mountain village for "travel". It was called travel, but it was actually an adventure. After all, Lao Li was a very courageous guy, so he always liked to pursue some thrilling activities.
After he arrived at the mountain village, he immediately started taking pictures with his camera and sent each photo remotely back to his computer. This behavior was reasonable at first, but later, because there was no signal in the mountainous area, it was gradually interrupted. It is worth mentioning that he stayed in a farmhouse that night. To be honest, even he was very surprised. In such a remote place, people are rarely seen on weekdays. It is really incredible that there is a small hotel like a farmhouse.
In addition, the owner of this farmhouse is also very special. She is a young girl. Lao Li estimates that she is only seventeen or eighteen years old.
At that time, Lao Li was so happy. It seemed that this time he could not only travel and relax, but also have a great love. Thinking of this, Lao Li immediately walked into the farmhouse: "Beauty, get a room for me!"
After hearing what Lao Li said, the other party just nodded, and then took Lao Li's ID card as a registration certificate. After all the formalities were completed, the girl took the key and took Lao Li to his room: "Your room is here. Go to bed early after dinner. Don't go out and wander around. Otherwise, we will not take any responsibility. I hope you can remember this clearly."
Now Old Li is really a little surprised. The more you forbid him to go out and wander around at night, the more he wants to go out and see if he can encounter any messy things. If you ask me, this guy Old Li can be described in one word: cheap!
If he had listened to the little girl and not left the hotel that night, he probably wouldn't have encountered the subsequent events.
I remember that when Lao Li was having dinner that night, he saw the little girl had locked the door of the farmhouse, but how could this trap Lao Li? He only saw him take the filming equipment and climb out through the window alone. Although it was a two-story building, it was not too high. With Lao Li's skills, it was easy to deal with such a height.
After leaving the hotel, Lao Li followed the route he had surveyed during the day and walked deep into the mountains. It should be emphasized that although this mountain is mysterious, there are no man-eating beasts, so Lao Li does not need to pay attention to his surroundings all the time. The mountains are pitch black under the night, and you can't see your hand in front of you. Fortunately, Lao Li prepared a flashlight in advance: "This mountain is really dark!"
As Lao Li was moving forward, he suddenly saw a group of strange flames slowly jumping in the air in the darkness in the distance. If an ordinary person saw this scene, he would probably exclaim that it was a ghost fire, but in the eyes of Lao Li, a science student, this was just phosphorous fire produced by chemical reactions. There was nothing to be surprised about. However, where there were phosphorous fires, it meant that there were remains nearby. Thinking of this, Lao Li immediately moved in the direction of the flames. Sure enough, here Lao Li saw a gloomy cemetery. To be honest, he had always heard people say that there were ghosts in the cemetery at night, but no one had ever seen it with their own eyes.
So, Lao Li took out a camera from his pocket and started taking a lot of pictures of the cemetery in front of him. His purpose was to find out whether there was a possibility that the cemetery was haunted late at night!
At first there was nothing strange, but when he finished taking pictures and put away the camera, he suddenly saw through the light of the flashlight a gray-white photo on the tombstone in front of him. The photo showed the face of a girl. At first glance, Lao Li just thought that the girl was good-looking, but the more he looked at her, the more familiar she seemed. After thinking about it carefully, he remembered that the person in the photo was the girl from the farmyard.
She, she is actually dead? But if that's the case? Then the so-called farmhouse where Lao Li lived before, is it a haunted house? It can't be so evil, right?
The more Old Li thought about it, the more frightened he became. Immediately afterwards, a chill swept through his spine. Under the catalysis of this chill, Old Li's body began to tremble involuntarily.
Now he did not hesitate, but immediately turned around and ran back the same way. However, after walking for a while, Lao Li suddenly realized that the road he walked on was particularly smooth when he came here, but why he was so nervous walking back, especially when there were a lot of stones under his feet that should not have been there for no reason. Lao Li's feet hurt, but now he didn't have the mind to think about these things.
I thought nothing strange would happen on the road, but who knew, at this moment, Lao Li suddenly saw a blood-red lantern floating out from the distant night like a ghost.
The light of the lantern came from far away and soon came to Lao Li. At first, Lao Li did not pay much attention to these details. After all, this mountainous area was relatively backward. If there were still people using lanterns for lighting, Lao Li could still understand it. But the next scene that appeared made Lao Li immediately frightened. It can be seen that the moment the blood-red lantern reached his side, he inadvertently glanced at the hand holding the lantern.
However, he was shocked to find that this was not a human hand at all. There were countless corpse spots on the pitch-black arm, and the dark red nails looked like they had been soaked in blood, which made people feel creepy.
Even though Lao Li had never seen a real corpse, he had studied what corpse spots looked like. So, after seeing the scene in front of him, he instinctively moved away from the other party, fearing that the owner of the ghost hand would threaten his safety. However, it was this seemingly simple action that made the other party's forward steps suddenly stop. Out of surprise, Lao Zhao looked behind him again, but he could clearly see that the owner of the ghost hand was wearing a bright red wedding dress with a red veil on his head. Although he was wearing a pair of blood-red embroidered shoes on his feet, they were not stained with any dust because the feet did not touch the ground at all when he walked.
Although Lao Li did not see the other person's face, the blood dripping from under the veil made his hair stand on end and cold sweat kept running out. Not only that, he also found that the other person slowly raised his other ghost hand covered with corpse spots and pulled off the bright red veil. Then, a bloody ghost face was directly exposed to his field of vision. The dark eyes were terrifying, and under the reflection of the blood-red lantern in the hand, it reflected a faint light. At this time, the dark corners of the mouth slowly opened, and said a sentence that Lao Li would never forget: "You, can actually see me!"
When he said this, the body of Lao Li who was sitting in front of me shook uncontrollably, and then he slapped himself in the face a few times without any scruples. He stopped only after feeling severe pain: "Lao Li, did you go out for a walk and made yourself stupid? How could you hit yourself like this? I think you should go to a psychiatric department. There are no ghosts in this world. Oh, I see. In the end, you must have suddenly woken up from the dream like what was written in the book, right! And then you found that everything you encountered was just a nightmare, right!"
"No, you are wrong. I really did encounter a ghost, and I escaped from the mountains. If you don't believe me, look at this!" Lao Li rolled up his sleeves and showed me the scar hidden under his clothes. "This is the wound caused by the bite of the female ghost. If I hadn't run fast, I'm afraid that what is back now would be my soul."
Seeing this, I was also very surprised. How could this guy be so sure that what he encountered that day was a ghost?
Later, I learned that after he came back, he immediately found a fortune teller to ask about his situation. The other party told him that the mountain he walked into that day was most likely the Beiyin Mountain that connects to the underworld, and that the cemetery was the gate to the underworld. If Lao Li continued to walk in, he might never come back. As for the female ghost he met that day, the fortune teller did not explain too much, but simply said a few words and passed it over casually. But even if the other party did not say it, Lao Li knew very well where this bloody female ghost came from!
But when I asked him, this guy kept it a secret and said that it would be bad for me if he told me too much!
As for the photo on the tombstone he saw in the cemetery that night, it was actually the twin sister of the farmhouse owner, who died of illness many years ago, and the person who appeared in the farmhouse at that time was a living person!
