Dao has no heaven and no life

Chapter 2 The Nightmare Begins
Winter 2000
The snowflakes are flying like flowers and feathers, dancing with the wind, and the whole land is dyed snow white. In the city center, the pine trees on both sides of the road are tall and straight, like rows of winter soldiers, dressed in white snow. Battle clothes, guarding this land.

Today is New Year's Eve. When night falls, the red lights in Jinbei City, Jingang District and Sanchun Community are colorful, firecrackers are shaking the sky, and fireworks are dazzling in the sky. Every downstairs in the community is accompanied by adults dancing with children. Fireworks.

Each child carries a large bag of different colors, which is filled with all kinds of bizarre fireworks, such as a small tank that can smack flowers, a flying monkey, and a fire-breathing spaceman. Rocket.

There is even a flying saucer that can rotate at high speed and burst into the air with gorgeous fireworks. Looking at the childlike joy on the faces of the children, the adults behind them seem to be infected, and they also have a great time playing together. I think this In an instant, they too became children.

No. In fact, everyone is a child, but in the eyes of children, they must be adults, and even ourselves may have forgotten and forgotten the innocence that we abandoned, because your world no longer needs it .

The whole city is full of fireworks and red lights hanging on the ground. Because of the Chinese New Year, not only the world is looking forward to this day, but the city, the high-rise buildings, the earth, and the sky are also looking forward to this day.

On New Year's Eve, Xiao Mengyuan, who was only four years old, went to her grandparents' house to celebrate the New Year with her parents.

Grandpa's house is not big, with a 60-square-meter house with two bedrooms and one living room. Pushing open the rusty green security door, you can see the old hallway and the milky white tiles on the ground. , an old dark green refrigerator, standing next to the kitchen, the green paint on it has begun to crack in a large area, it seems to be a product left over from the last century, and the sense of age is self-evident.

Opposite the kitchen is a small bedroom. Going inside, at the end of the hallway, there are two rooms on the left and the right, the guest bedroom on the left and the living room on the right. In the age of multi-nurturing, such a family lived with 6 people.

Maybe it was because of his young age. The lively New Year was not attractive to the four-year-old Xiao Mengyuan. He accompanied his grandparents, aunts and uncles to have a New Year's Eve dinner. After the New Year's greetings, he ran to the sofa in the living room. Lie down.

The sofa is not big, it is made of solid wood spliced ​​together, and it is painted with a layer of brown paint. It may be because it has been a long time, and the paint has fallen off in many places, revealing the original color of the solid wood.

Although the sofa is not big, to Xiao Mengyuan, it is like a big bed, which can be turned around and is very spacious. After all, he is less than one meter tall.

Just after lying down for a while, unbearable sleepiness emerged like a tide, making his consciousness a little hazy, his vision began to blur, his eyelids blinked weakly, and his young body was almost in a state of complete relaxation, unconsciously. In between, he fell asleep.

I don't know how long I slept.
suddenly!

An uncomfortable and extremely oppressive feeling swept through his body.

In an instant, Xiao Mengyuan opened her eyes, her pupils suddenly enlarged, and her young mind was enveloped by a feeling of extreme fear.He was horrified to find that his eyes were dark and quiet.It was like being in the endless darkness, making his scalp tingle.

"Where am I? Why is it so dark?"

This made Xiao Mengyuan feel very bad, the darkness in front of him seemed to be alive, like a virus, it penetrated into every cell in his body, leaving him breathless.

However, the most terrifying thing was that he found that his body could not move, as if there was an invisible force suppressing him.He clenched his small fists tightly, trying to break free. He used all the strength to suckle, but he only raised it a little.

"Why can't my body move? It seems to be pressed by something."

The fear in Xiao Mengyuan's heart is being amplified little by little, and cold sweat is oozing from his forehead, but the more fearful he is, the more his body struggles constantly.

During the struggle, he saw a ray of light coming from the front, and only then did he realize that the door of the living room was open, and he could clearly see that his parents were playing mahjong.

This is like a ray of light in the darkness, as if the dawn is coming, Xiao Mengyuan saw hope at this moment, this is also a feeling that I have never had before, as if the terrible things are finally over and happiness is coming. .

Only to hear him shout suddenly:

"Dad! Mom!"

"Dad! Mom!"

Unfortunately, hope often corresponds to despair, and even more frightening things happen.

He clearly exhausted all his strength and called out his parents, but... no matter what he tried, there was no sound, and his body was not under his own control. Even if he tried to suck, he could only lift a little.

Loud shouting, but only the mouth is moving, not a little sound.

It is as if this is a separate space with only endless darkness, as if everything here is annihilated by darkness, and no matter other than darkness is allowed to exist.

At this moment, Xiao Mengyuan was desperate!

Suddenly, an extremely uncomfortable feeling hit, and the hairs on his whole body trembled.

"Like, someone is looking at me?"

Rather than a human being, it is better to say that in this endless darkness, something is staring at him.

Xiao Mengyuan turned her eyes in horror, and slowly, little by little, glanced to the left.

Suddenly, he saw a gray-black shadow that looked like five fingers, and the gray-black fingers were very long, very long, and the worst thing was that they were covered with cracks and exuded a black mist that penetrated people.

"It's terrible! It's terrible!"

He hurriedly turned his eyes back and didn't dare to look anymore, he panicked.

I don't know how to describe it. At this time, my little dream is still too small, I have never heard of ghosts and gods, I don't know what ghosts and gods are, and I don't understand the meaning of death.

But he clearly knew that those five fingers were definitely not human fingers. At least he had never seen anyone with such a terrifying hand. He meditated in his heart:

"I saw it wrong, I saw it wrong, um... I must have seen it wrong!"

In fact, for the world, death is not scary. What is really scary is that when you realize that you may be dying, but you don't know when you will die, and you don't know if it's true!I can only wait anxiously, it is impossible to resist, and I have no power to resist, a heart eroded by fear, just hangs like this.

This is a kind of torture and even a kind of torment. The fear of the unknown will be infinitely magnified by the mind. The biggest terror in the world is actually...

Yes: unknown.

Xiao Mengyuan is in this kind of torment right now. She doesn't know what will happen next, and she doesn't dare to look around. She just holds a heart dominated by fear, for fear that something will happen suddenly, something terrible will appear. s things.

I don't know how long it took, he was surprised to find that he could move, but the next second he felt very strange, because he knew that his body was being pressed by an invisible force, so he did not actively drive his body.

wrong!

Xiao Mengyuan reacted, not so much that he could move, but that his body was moving on his own. Although he couldn't control his body, he still had a basic sense of touch. It was obvious that something grabbed his shoulders. Drag him back.

Thinking of this, Xiao Mengyuan trembled uncontrollably, sweating coldly, as if thinking of something, "Could it be... that terrifying shadow that I caught a glimpse of just now, right?"

His inner defense line was completely defeated, tears welled up, and he began to cry, his young body struggling desperately.

It was at this moment, in the silent and dark living room, that he heard, heard his own cry echoing in the living room.

I don't know if it was affected by the crying, Xiao Mengyuan's own repressed feeling disappeared, and the invisible force that was pressing on him also disappeared.

"Boom!"

Perhaps because of the violent struggle, his young body fell off the sofa, fell to the ground, and lay on the cold white tiles.

"hiss!"

"It hurts! No matter what, run away!"

The severe pain can't help but let Xiao Mengyuan take a deep breath and raise her head...

The moment he raised his head, the tears and crying stopped abruptly, and the whole world returned to silence again, and the silence in the dark space was terrifying.The scene that appeared in front of Xiao Mengyuan made him unforgettable for a lifetime!
It was at this moment that he finally knew why he was moving, and finally knew why!Why does it feel like something is grabbing his shoulder!

Xiao Mengyuan was stunned!To be precise, he should have been stunned, just staring blankly at the terrifying scene in front of him.

"Where's the balcony?"

"Why are you missing?"

As far as he could see, the balcony that was full of cannonballs and some New Year's goods had disappeared, replaced by darkness, an endless darkness with no end in sight!
In this secluded darkness, there is a round ball floating, like blood condensed, exuding a terrifying and eerie red light, like a nightmare.

Just looking at it, Xiao Mengyuan's body began to tremble violently, his consciousness began to blur, and double images appeared, as if something was about to break out of his body, and his young body seemed to be split open. General.

In this endless darkness, under the shadow of the strange and secluded red light, the things hidden in the darkness were finally revealed, and I saw a group of dense black shadows, thin and long, constantly shaking.

In a panic, Xiao Mengyuan accidentally bit the tip of her tongue.Suddenly, a sharp pain came, and he couldn't help but shuddered.

Because this is a very strange feeling, different from ordinary pain, although the first feeling is the pain from the tip of the tongue, but soon there will be a feeling of soreness and numbness that spreads to the whole body.

It is precisely because of this that Xiao Mengyuan's consciousness can be instantly awakened, and he can see clearly, the original. . .This dense shadow is really a hand, a tricky hand condensed by dark gray turbid air, thin and long, full of cracks.

What makes people terrifying is that there is a terrifying black miasma in the gap of the crack, which is continuously overflowing and extending to the upper arm.

They stretched out like this from the endless darkness, like ghostly shadows from hell, dancing in front of Xiaomengyuan, of course!At this moment, he finally confirmed that it should be these gray-black shadows who just grabbed his shoulders.

This scene is really terrifying and bizarre.

Just when he was stunned to the ground by the sight in front of him, this group of ghostly hands suddenly stopped shaking and rushed towards Xiao Mengyuan, grabbing towards his body.

Seeing Mimizaza's tricky hands coming towards him, Xiao Mengyuan subconsciously came back to her senses, turned her head and was about to crawl out of the light-filled living room. At this moment, for the young man, this was the light of dawn. It is also the last hope.

"As long as it's safe to rush out of the living room, Mom and Dad will be able to protect themselves."

Xiao Mengyuan thought to herself.

However, just as he was about to stand up and run away, he found that he couldn't do it at all. to move forward slowly.

Obviously, no matter how hard he tried, it was useless, but in an instant, he felt something grabbed his feet, and he saw his young body constantly sliding backwards.

Xiaomengyuan collapsed completely. The door was not far from him. Looking at his parents who were playing mahjong outside, he shouted desperately:

"Dad! Mom!"

"Dad! Mom!"

His body was being dragged back little by little, as if to drag him into this boundless darkness, but at this moment, he was still shouting from his mouth:

"Dad, Mom! Dad, Mom!"

It's a pity that there will be no sound after all, he is just opening his mouth...

Xiao Mengyuan fell into despair once again, and while being dragged back, she burst into tears, still in her mouth, shouting:

"Dad, mom save me, I'm scared!"

Tears were dripping down, but he was still holding on!Still desperately crawling forward, two little hands kept waving, crawling on the ground.

Maybe she was frightened just now, or maybe she just wanted to escape. After all, in the face of such a terrifying scene, Xiao Mengyuan should have cried in place, or she may have just remembered it now.

Just listening to the dark space, his howling began to echo again, and for some reason, just as Xiaomengyuan cried, the tricky hand that had grabbed his foot, trembled, obviously a little bit. Can't move.

Even he felt it himself, because, he could crawl forward again.It's just that he didn't think that all this came from his own crying.

Although the action was difficult, Xiao Mengyuan did not give up. Instead, she tried her best to grab the ground with her small hands, just like this, little by little, she crawled towards the door that shone with the light of hope, using all her strength. Crawling, while howling, the mouth kept crying:

"Dad, mom save me! Dad, mom save me!"

Xiao Mengyuan's strength to suckle was almost exhausted, but there was still no response from outside the door. Of course, he didn't make a sound from beginning to end, and even from beginning to end, the only thing that echoed from the darkness was crying...

He was just trying his best to open his mouth, that's all.

And in the darkness, behind him, the large dark gray shadow did not sit still and let him crawl out of the door. Instead, he seemed to be provoked. Like the touch of thousands of octopuses, they all grabbed towards Xiaomengyuan.
