The middle-aged man finally left District C.He left the cow's tears and the three talismans to me.
If I could hold on until dawn,he would naturally come to find me.
After this ordeal,it would be over.
I opened the bottle of cow's tears.Looking at the cloudy liquid,I gritted my teeth and smeared the cow's tears on my eyes.
When I opened my eyes again,my vision was a bit blurry.When I looked around,the low buildings seemed even more terrifying.
The blackened walls seemed as if they had been roasted by fire.Then,on the walls,twisted and withered figures emerged one by one.
Like souls trying to escape from purgatory,but they were still wriggling their bodies.
I almost didn't look back and twisted the handle of the scooter,pretending not to see.Following the cold navigation prompts,I vaguely groped my way forward.
"There was a big fire here once,and many people who couldn't be saved died...Since then,strange supernatural events have been happening here one after another..."
These were the words the middle-aged man said to me.It seemed that on every street I drove out of,there were the same figures.
I didn't dare to look around at all.I stared at my phone and kept looking for the way.Until now,I still didn't dare to look in the rearview mirror,for fear that a ghost might float over and look at the speeding electric scooter.
"Namo Amitabha,Wu Liang Tian Zun,God,Guanyin Bodhisattva,all kinds of gods,can you please protect me?"
I murmured softly.Just then,I saw a figure standing under the streetlight ahead.
It was the girl in white clothes with dark circles under her eyes,and I had delivered food to her before.
I was about to shout out,and the girl also slowly turned her head.But at this moment,I covered my mouth with one hand.
"Ghosts have no shadows."
Under the streetlight,the girl didn't have the slightest shadow.Even more,I realized that her feet were on tiptoe,and her heels didn't touch the ground at all!!
I didn't slow down the speed of the scooter,but I didn't dare to look at her either.When I passed by her,the scene in the rearview mirror was even more terrifying.
The girl almost turned her head at a 90-degree angle,and the blood dripping from her head was stained with some dirt.Just like that,she stared at me as I drove away with an extremely eerie head-turning posture.
Now I didn't even dare to breathe loudly.It was only when I saw that the girl,no,the female ghost's forehead wasn't black that I breathed a little more easily.
I don't know which movie I learned it from,but as long as a person holds his breath,generally,demons and ghosts won't be able to sense him.
But in the situation just now,it was obvious that movies were all lies!
I was still driving on the street,getting closer and closer to the location of the first order pickup.But when I turned into the next street,everything changed my perception again.
Several balls of white ghost fire lit up the streetlights,and under each streetlight,there was a noisy sound.
Selling cries,shouts,and the sound of playing finger-guessing games.
It was as if I had returned to a certain era.No,this lively scene seemed to be...
A ghost market!
This was something I learned in junior high school textbooks,but I never thought that one day I would enter a ghost market to deliver food.
I slowly drove into it.The ghost market was brightly lit,but for some reason,the walls were still blackened.
The people were dressed in various styles.There were old-fashioned blue cloth clothes,scarlet cheongsams,and pale peasant vests...
And those people all had a common characteristic.
They were on tiptoe,and their bodies were all like charred remains.
In this place full of ghosts coming and going,I didn't dare to speed up at all.If it weren't for my excellent scooter-riding skills,I might have crashed into these ghosts.
The cold wind in my ears whistled past from time to time.The ghosts had pale faces and charred bodies,and a foul smell filled the air,but I didn't dare to say a word.
"Brother,I'm here to pick up the food delivery."
I tremblingly took a large bowl of intestines.They were bloody intestines.The ghost brother didn't care at all,but I didn't dare to look at him directly until I left.
Throughout the whole time,none of the ghosts had the so-called black forehead.
I gradually relaxed my tense nerves,but an extremely strange feeling of tiredness came over me.A Cantonese opera melody gradually came to my ears.
I didn't know where the opera was being sung.It seemed to be on the street ahead,and a smell of blood wafted over.
I held a bowl of bloody large intestines and put it in the food delivery box.The surrounding environment gradually became unfamiliar.
And the Cantonese opera sometimes stopped and sometimes continued.I felt dizzy.
"You have arrived at the destination."
An extremely cold voice made me come back to my senses.It was a different kind of teahouse.
I stood there in a daze.Why did the order lead me to this place?And according to the phone map,
I was still in District C.
Surprisingly,my phone still had the navigation function.It seemed that the saying that ghosts were related to magnetic fields was even less believable.
A woman came out of the teahouse.She had a graceful figure,but she was wearing red clothes.On her pale face,there was a clear swirl of black qi!
It was a vengeful ghost,but why did I encounter such a ghost for this order?
Under the red clothes,her intestines were exposed,dragged on the ground one by one,and the smell of blood rushed straight to my nostrils.
Half of the female ghost's face was burned and festered.Her pale hands were pulling the intestines back one by one.
"Intestines,has my intestines been delivered?"
I finally understood why the food delivery given to me was large intestines.
These were clearly the"intestines"of this female ghost.
I almost handed the large intestines to the female ghost in front of me as quickly as possible,hardly daring to look up at her appearance.
"This intestine is not enough...Why don't you give me some of yours?"
The hoarse and eerie voice,along with those bloody ghost hands gripping my arm.
"Get...get away!!"
The mental burden of the whole night made me collapse instantly.I didn't care about anything else.I took out the talisman given by the middle-aged man and slapped it on her!
The figure of the female ghost suddenly froze,and then a burst of cold air emerged from her body one after another.
"Ugh aaaaah...Uuuu..."
The wailing sound filled my ears.I turned the scooter around and yanked my hand back forcefully.But I found that I was holding the half of the female ghost's bloody hand.
"Damn it!!Die for me!"
I threw the ghost hand away.I didn't care what power the talisman had.I just wanted to leave this place as soon as possible.
I had to survive!!
The electric scooter sped forward,and the teahouse and the wailing female ghost gradually disappeared in the rearview mirror.
I didn't know where I drove to.On which street,I finally couldn't stand it anymore.
"Ugh..."
Vomit came out in front of me.Until I vomited out acid water and my stomach twitched,I finally came to my senses.
Just one food delivery,those ghosts,that bloody scene,and those intestines.
It made me unable to hold on again.When I was about to bend over and retch again,
The cold voice in the phone made me...
Fall into hell again.
