Shock
Zion heard someone shouting for help, the cries were very desperate.
It was as if someone was placed on a rack and roasted, with their skin cracking open and flesh bursting.
He also didn't know how these thoughts came into his mind, and thought it was the crew filming some scenes. Subconsciously, he turned his head to look at the distant crew.
In my heart, I thought: Which actor is it? He acted so professionally, so realistically, and his screams were really chilling...
Suddenly, Susie said, "Zion, look."
Zion turned around following the sound, only to see a large iron pot set up on the open ground not far behind them, and the screams were coming from inside the big wooden barrel in the pot.
"..."
Silence.
Susie: "?"
Didn't Zion see it?
It shouldn't have happened...
But suddenly, he widened his eyes, looked around, and opened his mouth in shock.
"Sister, can't they all see?" Zion realized.
Susie: "..."
Zion's mind must have fallen into hell. Wait a moment, she reached in and checked if it was inside.
Susie did look for it, but of course, it was not there. However, she was really puzzled.
Does anyone really react so slowly?
Zion stared blankly at the iron pot, and the screams inside grew even more desperate.
He stammered, "I... I thought, this, this was a set built by the crew..."
Wasn't Uncle Jonathan acting here? So it's not strange to have any weird scenes.
But suddenly he remembered that when he first looked over there, there were clearly no staff members...
Zion got a little annoyed and swiftly approached Susie, sticking close behind her.
"What... What is that!"
Susie: "..."
"Zion, what do you say?" she said silently, "Come, let's go and have a look..."
Zion reacted quickly this time, shaking his head rapidly, "I won't go!"
Susie sighed and patted Zion's shoulder, "Alright! Then I'll go see it myself! You stay here and wait for me obediently."
Zion is not used to it yet, but it's okay, everyone has a first time, and the first time can be scary, she understands!
Mitch finally closed the book in his hand and stood up.
He kicked Zion away with one foot.
Susie opened her mouth in shock.
You were such a Micky!
Zion: "..."
Who! Who kicked him?
He turned around and saw a man in a white robe floating behind him.
Zion was stunned.
He stood stiffly in front of the large iron pot like this, wanting to lift his feet and run, but at this moment, his feet were not under the control of his brain.
Susie was about to run over when she saw Tiago turn back with a strange look on his face and asked, "What's going on? Why did your brother suddenly rush over there and stand still?"
Susie made a hushing gesture and said, "Tiago, stay here and don't leave, and whatever you do, don't turn around!"
Tiago: "..."
In an instant, my back stiffened, my neck stiffened, and my agile mouth became clumsy: "Miss Susie, what happened behind..."
Susie just made a "shh" sound and ran away.
Tiago suddenly felt like he was sitting in hell, surrounded by ghosts.
How dare I look back!
Looking back, I saw my own mother, which was fine. But if I saw someone else's mother, he would never be able to accept it.
Under the clear sky and scorching sun, Tiago rested with Susie's sun umbrella tied under a big tree. The shade of the tree covered the sun umbrella, blocking the scattered sunlight and providing a pleasant and cool shade in the summer.
Just now, Tiago used to think that this place was a feng shui treasure, cool and undisturbed. But now, he sat stiffly, not daring to turn his head...
Behind the big tree was an empty space, which used to be the courtyard in front of a villager's house.
The courtyard had long been dilapidated, with only a glimpse of the solid earth floor that had been compacted. The house was still constructed with mud bricks as it used to be, but now it had turned into a dangerous building.
Although Zion was very scared, his hands seemed fearless. His mind was his mind, and his body was his body, and the two could separate and yet be closely connected... it was really the first time.
He listened to the scream, raised his hand, and directly lifted the lid off the barrel!
The barrel was unexpectedly empty, and the screams that were just in my ears suddenly disappeared, leaving a deathly silence around me.
"Zion!" Susie suddenly shouted in his ear, startling Zion.
"What...what are you doing..."
Susie looked around cautiously and replied in a low voice, "I thought the ghost had possessed you since you didn't react."
Zion couldn't help but get nervous and asked, "What? The ghost ran away? Where... where is it?"
He looked around cautiously, on high alert.
Susie grabbed his hand, squinted slightly, and suddenly said, "I don't know either, how did it suddenly disappear, strange..."
The wind suddenly blew around, the iron pots on the ground were still there, and the lid of the wooden barrel was lifted, with the fire underneath roaring loudly with the wind, burning fiercely.
Susie pulled Zion towards the dilapidated mud house.
The wooden barrel behind them suddenly made a clattering sound, and the lid that had been lifted suddenly closed by itself...
It was as if an invisible hand pressed the lid down...
