global collapse

When the old men tell stories, they always like to drink a few pots of wine and chew a plate of peanuts.

The old man was not willing to say anything to them at first, but Gu Mian tricked him out in a few words.

Now the few people are sitting in a small restaurant nearby. The old man sat happily in front of the table, not even looking at the door.

He picked up a peanut and threw it into his mouth and couldn't help but chew it. Yuwen and several others swallowed their saliva beside him.

"If you want to talk about Zhou Guanglei and Zhao Wen, they both didn't have it two years ago, but it was more than two months later."

"Let me talk about Zhao Wen first. I didn't work here before Zhao Wen died. At that time, the people in our factory thought he had gone to make money. I didn't expect that he had heard that he was gone in less than three months."

"Life and death are common. Although the people in the factory were surprised when they heard this, they didn't remember it for too long."

"It was not until two months later that Zhou Guanglei, who was very good with Zhao Wen, died, that some people suspected that they were not dead. They didn't know why Zhao Wen died, but Zhou Guanglei died strangely."

"Before he died, he always said that someone knocked on his door, and he suspected that it was us. Later, he did nothing else in the middle of the night and just called someone. I also received his call..."

"Later, I heard that he died in his house. He was lying on the bed and was strangled by the telephone line. Do you think this is strange? Can a living person lie on the bed and be strangled by the telephone line?"

"We all know that he died unusually, and we don't dare to say much about it. Some people always think that Zhao Wen and Zhou Guanglei's death was strange, but they can't find any relationship."

"But they don't know how Zhao Wen died. I know, old man! My nephew is working in the bureau."

"I heard my nephew tell me that when they investigated Zhao Wen's family, his family also said that Zhao Wen always heard knocking on the door before he died."

Gu Mian and the others knew about this, but they did not interrupt the old man and asked him to continue speaking.

The old man picked up a sip of side dishes, took a sip of wine, and then continued: "If you want to tell me the source of the knock, others may not know, but I know that my nephew is in the bureau."

Hearing this, Yuwen Hao and Qing Huan looked at each other, the origin of the knocking ghost was finally found out.

"When talking about the knock on the door, I have to mention a fire in our factory seven or eight years ago. A person was burned to death in the fire. Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk, I was here at that time, and I saw that the man was burned to the point of burning and lifted out."

When Yuwen Hao and the others investigated Zhou Guanglei yesterday, they also heard people mention that three people died in this factory and the other died in a fire. The remaining two are Zhao Wen and Zhou Guanglei.

"Seven or eight years ago, about 1995, our factory was built not long ago. It was very new. At that time, it was a very popular job to enter the factory. Many young people were rushing to come in."

"The one who burned to death was a young man named Yu Hai. I heard that he came from a countryside not far away. I wanted to come to a small county town, but I didn't expect to lose my life as soon as I came."

"It was night when the fire broke out. At that time, we were the new factory. It was the first time that the leader was a leader. He was so petty, afraid that someone would sneak in in the middle of the night to tear the door in the factory."

"Then our leader arranged a few people to work on night shifts. I was also in this factory that night, and I was in the gate."

"The young man Yu Hai is working on night shift in the office. He has a small bedroom in the office with a bed inside, and even someone is watching in the workshop."

"I was napping when the fire started. It should be around 2 o'clock in the middle of the night. I was still screamed by the night shift in the workshop."

"When I woke up, the fire was already surging! I hurried over there and saw that the entire row of offices were burned! That fierce..."

When he said this, the old man shook his head, as if he was still amazed at the ferocity of the fire back then.

"It was 1995, and the phone number in our small county was not popular, let alone mobile phones. Only the leader has a big brother in his hand, which is as long as a newborn child."

"We can't call the police, and we don't know where the fire brigade is. The police station is too far away, so we can only run out to find the leader so that the leader can call the police with his big brother."

"But it was too late. At that time, I went out to find the leader and asked me to guard the row of fire offices. After he left, I heard the sound in the row of offices..."

"It's Yu Hai's voice inside... Alas, he should be trapped in the small bedroom in the office."

"I heard him screaming inside, screaming! He was still knocking on the door, as if the bedroom door could not be opened, and he screamed desperately inside."

"I also wanted to rush in to save people, but the fire was too big at that time. I drowned the entire row of offices. I couldn't even see where the door was. It was a dead end when I entered."

"I could only listen outside to Yu Hai smashing the door inside, but I couldn't open it. In the end, his voice became smaller and smaller, but he kept knocking on the door inside..."

"When the fire truck came, there was no sound inside. The fire brigade had to put out the fire after the boss's energy. When the person was found, it was as dark as charcoal..."

"In the past seven or eight years, people in the factory have changed wave after wave. They don't know much about the fire that year, they only know that one person was burned to death."

"But I still remember clearly. I still remember that night Yu Hai knocked on the door desperately in the fire and wanted to come out, so when I knew about Zhao Wen and Zhou Guanglei, the first thing I remembered was Yu Hai."

When he said this, the old man put down his chopsticks and sighed, but he couldn't swallow the things in his mouth.

Gu Mian touched his chin. It seemed that Yu Hai was just a knocking ghost who followed him. It was strange that Yu Hai died, and he might have been killed by other ghosts.

He looked at the old man: "What did the police say later?"

"My nephew said the fire was very strange. It was not like an accident or a man-made one, but like a big fire that appeared out of thin air..."

"Have you experienced any supernatural events before Yu Hai died?"

Now the ghosts corresponding to the five of them have come out. It seems that they are not far from the source. The ghost who may have killed Yu Hai is the source of the curse.

"How could I know this? He is a bachelor. I heard that his parents had died long ago. He grew up eating a hundred families. He was a big stupid man and didn't talk to others. But I think he had never encountered any supernatural incidents before, otherwise he would have been scared to death."

"Then is there anything strange about this factory before?"

"When Yu Hai died, the factory was very new and it was only recently built. How could you experience any supernatural events in such a short time? If you want to find it, you have to start from when the factory was not built. I heard that this land was a textile workshop before."
