Chapter 3: The Evil Sneak, Hospitalized Again
After Dad left, Mom lovingly stroked my head and said, "It's not hot anymore, do you have any idea how many degrees you burned last night?"
"How much?"
"Forty degrees! The doctor said it would kill you in time!"
"Then it is better now?"
"Yes, no more fever. Don't run around in the future, especially not in that place! Last night your father carried you in his arms for four or five miles in one breath before he got to the hospital, and when he got there he was so tired he couldn't move."
This hospital is the town's hospital, almost five miles away from our village, I'm six years old, although thin, but almost forty pounds of weight, as the saying goes, the road is far from being light, my father carried me so far, really to be tired of not light. It seems that it is still good for mom and dad, I was moved for a moment in my heart, and my nose was sore.
"Not going." I nodded my head repeatedly, there is no need for mom to say, even if it kills me I won't go anymore, at the same time, I also scolded Erwazi and the others in my heart, really his grandmother's unrighteousness, a group of sons of bitches.
But then again, Erwazi they actually saw something? Or did they go back to have nightmares? Did they get a fever?
When I go back to ask them, no, or not, think about it is a little creepy.
Suddenly, there was another flash of light in my mind, go back? Should I still go back?
Last night, I clearly saw that burnt child standing right in front of my house.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but shiver again, a chill running down my back.
Mom saw this and said with concern, "Why are you shivering again?"
"Nothing." I thought about it and said, "Mom, can we not go home?"
Mom wondered, "Why don't we go home?"
I said, "At the hospital."
"Why are you still in the hospital after you've recovered?" Mom laughed, "This silly child, say some silly things, we do not go home, where to go back?"
I was speechless. Yes, if we don't go home, where will we go? Where are we going to eat and sleep?
Dad quickly bought buns back, mom also told dad what I just said "stupid", dad also laughed, look at them can not understand my pain, but I can not understand. If the burnt child is still in front of the house, they must think I am talking nonsense again.
After eating the buns, my father called the doctor and asked him to take a look at me and measure my temperature, but in the end the doctor said that I was fine and that I could leave after taking some medicine.
In this way, we went back to the home, to the door of the house, I hesitated again and again, do not want to go in, but still by parents pushed in.
Good thing I didn't see the kid again either.
But I forgot that it was daytime.
The nightmare, had just begun.
The day went by very fast, and before I knew it, it was dark again.
My father and mother had gone to work on the crops in the field, and as I was so ill and had no strength, I was left at home, and as I saw that it was getting dark, and that they had not yet returned, I had a fit of panic.
I didn't dare to stay in the house by myself, I decided to go and look for them, but I had just stepped out of the house when I saw a blurry figure standing at the courtyard gate, with two red eyes that were extraordinarily bright.
"Where are you going?" He said slyly.
Again!
I was so scared that I turned my head and ran into the house, slammed the door with a bang, shivered and put on the leash, and then ran into the inner room, locking the inner room door as well. But still afraid, I burrowed into the quilt again, taking the quilt over my head, and did not dare to come out of the atmosphere.
"Where are you?"
The voice rang out.
"Are you playing hide-and-seek with me?"
The voice was close.
"Hiding? I'll find you in a minute."
The voice drifted closer and closer.
Damn, who's playing hide-and-seek with you, I'm so scared I'm going to pee.
"I'm coming in."
Coming in? Come in how?
I froze, then it occurred to me that he wasn't human! I couldn't stop him with the door bolted shut. Besides, if he got in, I wouldn't be able to escape, would I?
When I thought about it, I almost cried out, don't find me.
"Where are you?" His voice sounded excited, as if he was actually playing hide and seek.
There were only four rooms in the house, two bedrooms, a living room, and a grain house. Not surprisingly, he should be in this house of mine soon.
"Oh, there you are!"
Just as that thought flooded my mind, his voice suddenly rang in my ears.
"Ah!"
I shrieked, lifting up the covers and rushing out the door, before running to the door of the house and being slammed back in - the door was unlocked by me!
"You still want to hide?"
A cold, blackened hand snapped up to my face and touched my chin before breaking my face and twisting it back.
"No, no, no ...... wow ......"
I immediately cried, my eyes dead shut.
"Open your eyes and play with me."
My face had been completely wrenched away from him, and the cold air was blowing silk onto my face, chilling me to the bone, I didn't look away, but my body was already paralyzed with fear.
"Open your eyes, why don't you look at me?"
I felt a force breaking my eyelids, to force me to open them.
"Why are you pestering me! Oooo......" I cried out.
"You're the one who wanted to find me."
"I'm not looking for you now, just go away! Wooo......"
Just then I heard someone talking in the yard.
"How do you turn on the lights with?"
"And the door to the house is locked?"
"Sleeping?"
It was dad and mom's voice, they were back!
I was like an amnesty, I shouted, "Dad! Mom!" My whole body was filled with strength at this moment, and I struggled to get up and opened the door to the inner room, then stumbled to the living room and went to draw the bolt.
The old-fashioned house doors were all very thick wooden doors, and if you went up from the inside you just stuck the bolt in, and the people outside could never open it unless you broke the bolt. So I had to jerk off the bolt, otherwise my parents couldn't get in.
But just as my hand touched the bolt, a chill came from my neck, followed by a strong force that violently pinched and tightened, my strength disappeared in an instant, and both my arms dropped soundlessly.
"I'm going to kill you!"
As if my behavior just now had angered him, his voice became resentful to the extreme at this time!
"Use it!"
"You're in there, aren't you!"
"Open the door!"
"Bang Bang!"
"Open the door!"
Dad, mom's shouts and banging on the door came one after another, I tried to open my mouth, want to speak, but nothing came out, my eyes gradually blurred, consciousness is also gradually confused ......
Finally, I only heard a "pop" sound, I don't know where the sound came from, and I completely lost consciousness.
When I woke up again, I found myself lying in the hospital again.
"Awake?"
"Use it!"
"Well?"
Mom looked at me anxiously.
At this moment, I suddenly breathed a sigh of relief that I shouldn't be dead yet.
If I died, I would never see my dad and mom again, the thought of this made me feel unprecedentedly panicked.
"Mom, I don't want to go home!"
I said as I struggled to sit up.
"What were you doing locking the door at home just now?" Dad asked me with a frown.
"There's a ghost in the house!" I exclaimed, "I locked the door to keep the ghosts out of the house, but the ghosts got in and choked me again, knocking me out!"
"Cough cough ......"
Someone next to me coughed, and I saw a doctor right in front of me.
"This child's brain ......" The doctor that finger pointed to his head, a serious face to look at dad, want to say.
"It should be from the fever." Mom explained in a hurry.
The doctor frowned and said, "Yesterday night he had a fever, it got better, and then this night he had a fever again, and it's all high, and he was full of nonsense when he came in, what the hell is wrong with him?"
Dad and Mom looked at each other in disbelief, and Mom said, "The baby is weaker, I guess."
I protested, "I'm not talking nonsense, there's just a ghost in the house, it's the burned child that's in the house! Dad, how did you guys get in there? Didn't you see him when you went in?"
Dad said grimly, "You wouldn't open the door, so we smashed the window and tumbled in. We didn't see anything but you lying behind the door, a feverish mess."
So it was the smashed window, I fell silent, they didn't see the boy, how could I explain?
