At this time, I found that the moon that was there just now was gone, and the surroundings were plunged into darkness. A lantern held by the person walking in front was more like a will-o'-the-wisp, looming, and a cool breeze blew up from the ground, and the sound of ghosts crying and wolves howling came from the wind.
Um? There's no wind tonight. It was fine when I came out from home. Now it's suddenly windy?
I was a little scared, so I ran forward quickly. As I ran, I found something was wrong in front of me. I didn’t know when a thick white mist appeared in front of me. The sudden sound of wind and white mist scared me so much that I screamed loudly. Get up, mom, what's going on?
"Who are you that person in front? Wait for me quickly. Who are you? Wait for me quickly. I'm a little scared behind you."
The louder my scream got, the louder the wind blew, and the thicker the white mist became.
I stumbled and ran forward desperately.
As I ran, my heart sank. No, I ran for less than half an hour. Logically, I should have arrived at the screening venue long ago. Moreover, even though he was chasing the people walking in front of him, he never walked past the roof of the kiln owned by landlord Wang Laocai. Also, who is that person walking in front? Why did he remain silent for most of the day? Why does he walk fast when I walk fast? Why does he walk slow when I walk slow? With such a heavy fog, is he still ahead?
I was so frightened when I thought about it that my scalp was numb and my hair stood on end. I turned around again and saw that something was wrong. Where was this place? Why have I never been to a place like this?
A straight road appeared in front of me. Both sides of the road were covered with countless towering trees. There were many pedestrians coming and going on the road, but they didn't seem to see me. They turned a deaf ear to me and didn't even look at them. . At this time, a cold wind blew, and the trees on both sides made a rustling sound, as if countless people were talking.
I have never seen such a scene since I was a child, and now I am so frightened that I almost cry.
Just when I was anxious and scared, a huge figure floated over from the end of the road in front of him. And accompanying this figure, there is also a ball of orange light. As this huge figure floated closer and closer, I could see clearly that it was a giant "person" about two feet tall. I saw that this person's eyes were like copper bells and his face was ferocious. Wearing a costume that I had only seen when watching a play, wearing court boots, holding a large seal in his left hand, and an antique palace lantern in his right hand, the orange light was flashing, giving people a sense of wonder. A weird feeling.
This giant came to me in a blink of an eye. He bent over and looked at me and laughed.
"Little baby, when others see me, they turn around and run away, but you are very bold. You actually told me to stop and asked me to wait for you. Tell me, tell me to stop. If you have anything to do, don't delay me. Obviously Master Dao, I still want to go to the theater."
I mumbled and said to the huge human figure: "Who are you? I don't know you, and I didn't ask you to stop. There is a movie in our village tonight, and I just want to go to the screening venue to watch the movie." , tell me where you are now?"
The giant glared at me: "How did you talk to me, kid? How dare you be so rude? Didn't your parents teach you etiquette?"
"Forget it, I won't argue with you because you are a child. Let me tell you, others call me Mr. Xiandao. I am dedicated to clearing the way for people going west. This road is not for you mortals. It is a road that can be passed by ghosts, spirits and people with dharma. Today, a local wealthy family performed a play for the City God. I was invited by the local City God to watch the play."
After hearing this, I was shocked. Ah, this must be the legendary God of Manifestation.
I heard adults say that this god is good at scaring people walking at night. Today, I was unlucky enough to meet this god and come to this ghost place.
"No, I have to leave quickly, otherwise tonight's movie will be ruined."
As I was thinking in my mind, I said to Xian Dao Shen: "Master Xiantong, I didn't mean to do it. I was also in a hurry to watch a movie. I saw someone in front of me. I thought he was a neighbor, so I followed him."
"Please let me go, let me leave. I have to go back to watch a movie. There hasn't been a movie in our village for a long time."
After hearing this, Xian Dao Shen burst out laughing and said: "Children, listen carefully, I am the god you are chasing today, and I am not teasing you. Just leave if you say you want to. That won't work. You must accompany me today." Go to see a play, and you can only leave after watching the play, otherwise you will never be able to go back in your life."
When I heard this, I could never go back in this life, and I was so scared that I cried.
"Grandpa Xiandao, I beg you, please let me go back. I have my father, my mother and my brother at home, and I still have to work in the production team."
"As long as you accompany me to a play, I will let you go."
"Okay, I promise you, but you have to keep your word. I'll watch a play with you, and you have to send me back."
"Okay, okay, I am a god. How can I deceive you, a child? Then just follow me."
After Xian Dao Shen finished speaking, he stood in front, turned around and floated up. The huge figure was taller than the big trees on both sides of the road.
I tightened the belt of my pants behind me and started running quickly, for fear that I would run too slowly and not be able to keep up with the huge shadow.
Just like this, one person and one person walked along the road to the south. From time to time there were hazy figures floating by on the road, and I didn't dare to look too much, staring closely at the huge figure in front of me and the yellow light.
After walking for about two sticks of incense, the big trees on both sides of the road were no longer visible, and we were probably reaching the end of the road. I was sweating profusely and out of breath, but I didn't dare to speak.
At this time, a faint light shone from the front of the road, and there was also a babbling sound, like the sound of an opera singer.
"Child, the palace of the City God is just ahead. The play has already started. Let's go there quickly. When we get to the stage, you can't speak, let alone look around. You must obey my orders."
After saying that, the huge figure turned to the right and floated over. I quickly followed and turned down the road, only to realize that it was a field.
Although it was already late autumn, there were still unharvested Baogu around. I looked around as I walked, and followed the huge figure to the center of the Baogu field.
Not far ahead, there is a stage that has been set up. Although the stage was a bit crudely built, flags were fluttering and red silk was fluttering. On both sides of the stage were drummers holding various instruments, playing vigorously.
