The old man was wearing a shabby blue shirt, stooped, holding an old-fashioned cylindrical lantern in his hand, and pursed his lower lip.
His appearance really startled me, who was highly nervous.
I wiped my face, but before I could reply, Ma Liuzhi walked over with his waist pinched.
"What's the matter, uncle, you're here to do the watch?"
Ma Liuzhi now looked like a ruffian.
Even if he was short in stature, he would be about the same height as the rickety old man even if he straightened his back.
"Go home.
No one here can go home."
The old man didn't wait for Ma Liuzhi to reply, and walked out again with a lantern, walking slowly, one side high and the other low, like a lame man.
Ma Liuzhi looked at the old man's back with squinted eyes.
He was silent for a moment and then suddenly said to me: "Let's go quickly."
Ma Liuzhi said and walked towards the gate, and I hurriedly followed.
But just when we reached the gate, there was a sudden bang and the iron door of the factory locked itself.
All this happened so fast.
Ma Liuzhi and I looked at each other in shock.
It took a long time before we said in a deep voice: "Damn, I encountered a ghost."
Yes, we encountered a ghost.
Because, the moment I turned around, I saw a man standing next to Ma Liuzhi, with a broken hand and burns all over his body.
But the man didn't make any move, he just let out an extremely dull, like The hiccup-like sound dissipated instantly.
I couldn't help but tighten my grip on Chi You Sanqian, and my teeth began to chatter.
I don't know when, a woman wearing a red robe appeared in front of me.
In her hand, she was holding the head of the man just now.
Ji Chengxue I swallowed, endured the uncomfortable feeling of numbness in my scalp, gritted my teeth and walked deeper into the factory.
Ji Chengxue smiled coldly, disappeared in an instant, and obviously returned to my body.
Chi You Sanqian pulled my hand and seemed to have something to say to me.
I turned my head and saw her frowning at me and saying, "Is there anything wrong with that thing in your body?"
I trembled all over and almost threw her hand away.
I forced out a pretty smile.
This girl could see Ji Chengxue.
My heartbeat was a little faster.
I suddenly felt that Chi You Sanqian was a very scary person.
I couldn't explain why.
I just felt that this woman made me very afraid. .
"I'm afraid it's difficult to go out directly now.
Let's go up to the second floor.
In this way, you and Miss Sanqian will follow closely while I walk in front.
If we get separated, we'll be in trouble."
Ma Liuzhi suddenly turned around and interrupted my thoughts.
The darkness I couldn't see his face clearly, but his tone was very deep.
I responded, and I flashed a flashlight with Chi You Sanqian, and walked forward closely behind him.
There were only the footsteps of the three of us in the whole factory.
It was monotonous and full of oppression, which made my skin stand on end.
Soon, we reached the stairs leading to the second floor.
As we were going up the stairs, I suddenly discovered that the surrounding walls were covered with mottled blood stains, which was the color of dried blood.
I pursed my lips.

This factory was definitely not destroyed by a fire as rumored by the outside world.
At this time, Ma Liuzhi suddenly cursed in a low voice: "Hey, whoever tied a rope to the beam, it's thanks to Mr.
Liu that I am short, otherwise I would have been strangled to death."
As he said this, Ma Liuzhi vomited on the ground.
He was spitting phlegm and continued to walk forward slowly.
I was a little suspicious, so I shined my flashlight on the beam.
"ah" I yelled and subconsciously took two steps back.
At this time, the hairs all over my body stood up, and cold sweat broke out on Chi You Sanqian's palms.
"What the hell are you calling?"
Ma Liuzhi turned around and yelled at me in a low voice.
"There is a hanging rope hanging on Master Liu's door beam."
After saying this, I felt that all the strength in my body was almost drained.
I shivered and took the flashlight to shine on the beam again.
It was indeed a hemp rope with the same blood stains on it as the surrounding walls.
A main rope is tied to the beam, and a circle is exposed below, which is exactly the size of a human head.
"Damn it," Ma Liu muttered, looking at the hanging rope.
At this moment, a violent coughing sound suddenly entered my ears.
I am sure that Ma Liuzhi and Chi You Sanqian also heard it, because from the light of the flashlight, I saw their somewhat pale complexions.
I breathed heavily, feeling a chill spread from my neck to my body, and a strong fear rose from the bottom of my heart.
The coughing sound was still echoing in my ears, and I suddenly thought of Xie Si, who was squatting and shivering at Ma Liuzhi's house.
The anger in my heart arose, which actually dispelled a lot of the fear in my heart.
I took a deep breath, clenched my fists, wiped my face, and looked at Ma Liuzhi.
"Master Liu, follow me."
"Okay."
Ma Liuzhi was silent for a while, and then slowly uttered the word "good".
We have now left the second floor of the factory building and walked towards the corridor next to it.
The factory was dark and gloomy, not even the sunlight came in.
Vaguely, I saw Ma Liuzhi take out something from his arms.
As we walked slowly, the coughing sound got closer and closer to us.
Ma Liufinger clenched the flashlight in his hand, and then shined it to the end of the corridor.
There was a person squatting there The man was hunched on the ground, wearing white clothes.
He could not see the man or woman clearly, and the coughing sound came from his mouth.
When illuminated by the flashlight, he seemed to have no intention of looking back, but was still coughing.
Just when I was still hesitating whether to go over, Chi You Sanqian tightened my hand, and then whispered in a voice that only the three of us could hear: "He is a ghost."
One sentence made me feel like I was struck by lightning.
Ma Liuzhi swallowed, and the flashlight shined on the man again.
This time, he turned back, and under the light of the flashlight, I finally saw his appearance clearly.
It was an extremely terrifying face, extremely pale, with a pair of red eyeballs that were constantly leaking blood.
The eyebrows stood upright, and the nose could only be described as a hole.
There was also a blood-red stripe that was so long that it dragged to the ground.
There are clear purple bruises on the tongue and neck.
"The Hanged Ghost."
I uttered two words softly in my mouth.
When I saw the appearance of this ghost, I remembered a narrative in the Night Talk of One Hundred Ghosts.
This kind of ghost is the twelfth ranked ghost in the Hundred Ghost Night Walk.

Ranking twelfth does not mean that it is very powerful, but it means that it is not only one of the most common ghosts, but also one of the ghosts that cause the most harm. .
Liaozhai Zhiyi once mentioned: "The woman calmly bent her legs and stretched her neck to be hanged.
As soon as she took off the belt, her eyes closed, her eyebrows stood up, her tongue came out to kiss about two inches, and her color changed tragically like a ghost."
This is almost identical to the appearance of the hanged ghost in front of us.
The hanged ghost saw us, still coughing violently, and crawled towards the three of us.
I panicked a little and pulled Chi You Sanqian back a few steps.
Ma Liuzhi also swallowed hard and began to retreat slowly.
"This hanged ghost is also called a substitute.
He kills people just to find a substitute.
Remember, don't let him catch him.
Once caught, you have to become like him."
Ma Liuzhi turned his head and said to me. , and then raised his left hand.
Only then did I see clearly that what Ma Liuzhi had just taken out from his arms was a whisk.
That whisk is very special because its dust filaments are made of paper money and the handle of the whisk is also made of willow branches.
You can see it clearly at a glance.
The Hanged Ghost crawled for a while and saw the fly whisk in Ma Liuzhi's hand.
He tilted his head and coughed violently again.
However, the cough was accompanied by strange laughter.
The laughter was very sharp and shocked.
I got goosebumps all over my body.
"Don't be touched by it, don't even touch a hair."
Chi You Sanqian whispered in my ear, and pulled me back a few steps.
Before I could ask my doubts, Chiyou Sanqian added: "I once read a book of ghost stories from the Qing Dynasty.
There is a sentence in it that says that whenever someone hangs to death, there are often ghosts in his house and the place where he hanged himself.
Therefore, if the person is hanged, and if the person hanged is not a person, the common saying is to ask for a substitute, or to ask the dead ghost to replace himself.
That is to say, whenever someone is hanged, there will often be people hanged in the house where he lives and in the place where he is hanged.
He will not be the only one, that is, the dead person, in order to seek immortality, induces others to hang himself. replace yourself" Chi You Sanqian's tone of voice also became a little lower.
In the darkness, her eyes were unusually bright, which made me feel a little chilled.
At this moment, the Hanged Ghost suddenly thrust its head forward, its scarlet tongue rolled around like a poisonous snake, and pierced Ma Liuzhi's forehead.
Ma Liuzhi was worthy of being a meal eater.
He quickly rolled twice on the ground, turned sideways, and hit the tongue with a snap of the fly whisk.
The hanged ghost screamed in pain and stared at the fly whisk in Ma Liufinger's hand with bleeding eyes.
"Sixth Master, step back" I saw the Hanged Ghost with his hands on the ground, coughing violently.
The scarlet tongue twitched due to the blow from the whisk, and the front part was slightly burnt.
Because I didn’t know what kind of tactics it would use next, I deliberately reminded Ma Liuzhi.
Ma Liuzhi listened to my words, crouched on the ground and took two steps back.
On the narrow corridor, only the three of us had our flashlights still on.
The hanged ghost was in the corner, coughing non-stop, smiling strangely, and his bleeding eyes made people feel sick just looking at it.
Suddenly, the Hanged Ghost swooped towards us again, creating a smell of blood.
Its blood-mottled white gown carried a scarlet tongue as tall as a person, and it just swooped towards us from mid-air.
I quickly grabbed Chi You Sanqian's hand and moved back, then breathed out fiercely at the hanged ghost.
The hanged ghost laughed, his figure flashed, and disappeared into the darkness.
Just when I was about to breathe a sigh of relief, I suddenly looked at the empty front of me in a daze and muttered: "Why is Mr.
Liu missing?"
