midnight snake language

Chapter 6 Living Paper Man

Since I was a child, my grandma loved me very much. Whether it was lucky money or other good things, she was not stingy.The way grandma is anxious to ask me to leave now is really weird. I can't think of the reason, so I can only try to ask.

At this moment, I felt guilty from my grandma's overly shocked eyes, and felt that this question was too unfilial, so I whispered: "I'm just joking..."

Grandma gave me a blank look: "That's not how you joke. Hurry up, you start now, and you can get home before dark."

Grandma's body has not been found yet, so the funeral had to be suspended.My parents don't allow me to go down again, and I can't help here.

Moreover, in two days it will be the day when I will fill in the volunteers for the college entrance examination. The signal in the village is not good. My parents are worried that it will affect my college entrance examination, and they think it is better for me to go back to the town first.

After taking the money my dad gave me, I left with my mobile phone in my pocket.Before going out, my grandma specially told me: "Weiwei, on the way back, no matter who calls to stop you, don't stop."

I am so old, of course I understand the reason not to talk to strangers, and I signaled grandma to rest assured.

There is a direct bus from the village back to the town, but it takes 10 minutes to walk from grandma's house to the station.

The scenery in the countryside is good, and this little road is nothing.I carried my bag on the road and walked out of the village. I couldn't help thinking about what happened just now.

The look in the eyes of the big black snake before it disappeared was impressive. Is it really dead?

I was lost in thought, and suddenly someone patted me on the shoulder. I was shocked, and turned my head to see that it was Zhao Man who was teasing me.

Zhao Man was born in the same year and the same month as me, so he was my childhood friend.Every year when I go back to the village, she will come to play with me.This time because I was busy dealing with my grandma's funeral, I haven't met her yet.

"Weiwei, when did you come back?" Zhao Man withdrew his hand stiffly, and his voice was a little strange.

"I came back the day before yesterday. My great-grandmother passed away." I briefly explained, seeing that Zhao Man was wearing heavy makeup today, I felt a little uncomfortable, "Are you learning makeup?"

Zhao Man twitched the corner of his mouth and forced a smile: "Yes, do you want to learn? I'll teach you."

I am indeed interested in makeup, but my grandma just passed away, so now is obviously not the time to learn it.

Moreover, Zhao Man's makeup is really too thick, her whole face is painted white and white, and the two blobs of blush and lipstick on her cheeks are too red, and she also uses black eye shadow. Human makeup is better than her.

Realizing this, a chill ran straight from the soles of my feet to the top of the sky, I shivered involuntarily, and secretly glanced at Zhao Man's feet.

A long, twisted shadow unfolded around her feet, overlapping mine.

It is said that ghosts have no shadow, but Zhao Man has a shadow, so he should still be alive.

However, in view of my previous experience, I think it is better to go home first: "I'm going home, I won't learn makeup for now. Let's go, goodbye."

"Then why are you coming to my house?" Zhao Man asked.

Zhao Man's words were like a gust of wind blowing away the fog in front of my eyes, and only then did I realize that I was standing at the door of her house.

This is impossible!

Going out of the village and going to Zhao Man's house are two completely opposite directions. I can't go wrong with my eyes closed. How did I come to Zhao Man's house?

This fact is so strange, I wanted to leave quickly, but the sky began to rain heavily, which instantly drenched me into a drenched chicken.

"Weiwei, come in and sit for a while." Zhao Man's mother came out of the room, and together with Zhao Man, they dragged me into the room without any explanation.

In the middle of the main room there was a big red 囍 character, and there was a row of paper figurines standing against the wall. I was suddenly reminded of my weird dream.
