Li Ran is an outstanding horror novelist, and often goes to those horrible places that make people talk about in order to find inspiration.

On this day, he came to an old house that was rumored to be haunted. At night, Li Ran saw a rickety old man holding pewter at the end of the corridor. The old man’s steps are slow and his body is stiff, like a puppet with a string. Li Ran stepped forward and kindly reminded the old man: “Old man, there are rumours of haunting here, don’t you know?” The old man turned stiffly, raised the pewter to his face, and said, “I know, I am the ghost. “

Li Ran screamed, and ran back quickly, the old ghost’s “chuckle” sneered behind him. As he ran and looked back, the old ghost was getting closer and closer to him, and he could even smell a carrion. Li Ran suddenly remembered that when he first arrived here, the locals had told him that if unfortunately he encountered a ghost holding a candle, as long as he put out the wax in his hand, the ghost would disappear by itself. Thinking of this, Li Ran deliberately slowed down, and when the old ghost chased him behind him, he suddenly turned around and blew on the candle. Not only did the candle not go out, but the candle fire went higher. After Li Ran was taken aback, the old ghost had already been a few steps closer. Li Ran hurriedly took out a bottle of water from his pocket and poured it on the candle. The candlelight suddenly turned into a ball of fire, wrapping up the old ghost. The old ghost in the fireball laughed “haha”: “Don’t try to destroy me, this candle can’t be destroyed by others, only I can blow it out.”

“What should I do? “Li Ran was immediately at a loss. He stared at the end of the corridor. There was no way forward and ghosts were chasing after him. He leaned against the cold wall and watched the old ghost approaching with a smile. The breath of death swallowed Li Ran little by little. Suddenly, he had an idea, and shouted at the ghost: “Happy birthday to you.” After hearing this, the old ghost was taken aback, blew out the candle and disappeared.
