Procrastinating, stubbornly holding, lingering and panting. After going through these painful stages, the real economy finally began to collapse. A large number of manufacturing factories went bankrupt and countless physical stores closed down. The direct consequence of these phenomena is that many people are unemployed and their future is lost.
Among these people, Lao Xu is one of them. He originally worked in a shoe factory. Because the economy was deviating from reality, the boss closed the shoe factory and invested all the money in real estate speculation. Lao Xu and other employees naturally became unemployed.
Being unemployed was a big blow to Old Xu. Although he is fifty years old this year, he has reached the age of retirement, but his eldest son is only fifteen years old. The family still needs his labor force to support him. Due to his livelihood, Lao Xu had to introduce him through a friend. Go to Ping An Building as a watchman.
Some readers may ask, isn’t it just being a watchman in a building, is it necessary to be forced? Yes, for an ordinary person, there is no problem at all when looking at the building. But Old Xu is not an ordinary person. He used to tell fortunes when he was a child. The fortune teller said that his characters are lighter and easily provoke unclean things. Therefore, when he grows up, it is best not to engage in work that requires night shifts, and it is best not to do night shifts. go.
What the fortune teller said, Lao Xu didn’t believe it at first. After all, this is the age of scientific prosperity, and things like fortune-telling are all classified as superstitions. It wasn’t until a special night that year that he encountered terrible things that he realized that what the fortune teller said was completely true.
It happened when he was nineteen years old. One day, to be precise, this day was the 15th day of the seventh lunar month, the Chinese New Year. He was invited to drink at the home of his old classmates in the countryside, and because everyone was very interested, he drank until late. When he walked out of his classmate’s house, the sky was already full of stars.
“Old Xu, it’s so late. Why don’t you sleep in my house for one night and leave tomorrow morning!” Old Xu’s old classmate chased out from the old house.
“No way! I have to go to work tomorrow! If I stay at your house for one night, I will be late for work tomorrow! I don’t want to lose this month’s perfect attendance award!”< br>
“But, tonight is…”
“Don’t be afraid!” Before the old classmate had finished speaking, Old Xu sprayed his mouth full Alcohol, pointing to the moon in the sky and said, “Look at how round the moon is tonight! How bright! With such a bright moon shining on, what am I afraid of!”
“Good Come on! Then you should be careful!” Seeing that Old Xu insisted on being so persistent, he couldn’t force him to stay.

“Really!Man husband, what’s to be afraid of when walking at night! “Lao Xu said to himself as he walked. He walked and suddenly found something was wrong.
How to put it? He found that many people were burning gold on the road. Silver-clothed paper, some of them also put several vegetable dishes on the ground.
“The people in the countryside are really strange! The family’s good ancestors do not worship, but they ran to the road to worship the wild ghosts… not right! “Lao Xu said as he said, he suddenly remembered that in rural customs, only on the 15th day of the seventh lunar calendar, people would burn gold and silver cloth paper on the road.
Thinking of this, Lao Xu began to feel a little scared: “No! How about Midyear Festival? Teachers and scientists clearly told us that there are no ghosts in this world! What the fortune teller said was all deceptive! “
Although Old Xu constantly comforts himself, things in the world are sometimes so wonderful. The more you are afraid of something, the more proactively it will appear in front of you. When Old Xu walked to the grove On the trail, he suddenly heard a very faint voice coming from behind:
“Old Xu…Old Xu…Old Xu…”
When I heard this voice, Old Xu felt very strange at first. In the countryside, except for the old classmate, he never knew anyone else, and even if he knew Throwing People, it was impossible to be so late. Time, calling him in such a remote place. “Is that a robber? “Old Xu peeped behind him quietly from the corner of his eye. It’s okay if he didn’t peek. When he took a peek, Old Xu was so frightened that his entire body horrified.
About ten meters away behind him, there was a woman in red with a disheveled hair quietly following him. Old Xu thought that the woman in red was on the night like himself, but when he saw the woman in red With a bloody face and blood constantly flowing out of his eyes, he immediately realized that this woman in red is not a human being at all!
At this time, I think needless to say, everyone knows What was Lao Xu’s reaction? He ran away with a “call”, running faster than the Jamaican trapeze Bolt. It’s a pity that all of this was useless. Due to excessive panic, Lao Xu was completely panicked. When he was so tired that he couldn’t run anymore, he suddenly realized that he had run into a cemetery. The tomb in the cemetery knew it was some years old. It is full of all kinds of weeds, it looks very strange under the moon of July 15.

In this regard, Old Xu is even more He was scared. He rested for a while, and then tried to get out of this cemetery, but he didn’t know what was going on. The cemetery was obviously not very big, and it should be easy to get out. But when he really walked, he didn’t know what happened. Can’t go out, as if the whole grave has becomeThe big maze of Crete.
Old Xu gets tired as he goes, and disappointed as he goes. Yes, he remembered. The fortune teller once told him that his horoscopes are very light. When walking at night, in addition to encountering ghosts, he is also prone to encounter “ghosts hit the wall”.
“It’s over!” He sat down beside one of the graves and thought desperately: “I must die here!”
“Young man, what are you doing here?” Just as the old Xu’s thoughts were lost, a gray-haired old man suddenly appeared in front of him. Old Xu was taken aback, and stuttered: “May I ask if you are…”
“I am the gravekeeper here!” The old man replied, “Young man, you too It’s so bold! You dare to drill into this place on July 15, don’t you want to die?”
“No, grandpa! Please listen to me!” Old Xu Yiwuyishi told the story, and the old man suddenly realized: “It turns out to be like this. Alas! Young people, you must know how to respect ghosts and gods! If you don’t respect ghosts and gods, you will definitely encounter disaster. But you are lucky enough to meet me at this crucial moment. Let’s go! I’ll take you out of this place!”
“Thank you, grandpa!”
< br/>
So the old Xu followed the old man and walked out of the grave in less than a quarter of an hour. When Old Xu saw the light emitted by the street lights on the highway, he was very excited and quickly thanked the old man, but when he turned around, the old man was nowhere to be seen.
To this day, Lao Xu is still not sure whether the old man is a man or a ghost. The only thing he can be sure about is that the fortune teller is right. He is really easy to hit ghosts. .
“How about, Old Xu?” Seeing that Lao Xu’s face was uncertain, Lao Xu’s friends were a little curious, “Do you want to do it or not to do it?”
“Oh! It’s all for this, do you think I have other choices?” Old Xu said with a sigh.
“That’s good! I’ll just tell the manager of the building, you will come to work tomorrow.”
The next night, Mr. Xu was on time Appeared in the duty room of Pingan Building. The one who welcomes Lao Xu is Lao Chen, who has been watching the mansion for ten years. Lao Xu was polite with Lao Chen, and then asked about some work matters, and finally asked the key questions: “Um… Lao Chen, you have been in Pingan Building for ten years, have you heard of it, Or have you encountered something supernatural?”
