There were not many guests in Sanyou Hotel, and the lights were not turned on in the hotel corridor to save space, so the smell of burning leather was even greater once the door was opened.
There was no flashlight at hand, so I held up my mobile phone for lighting and walked outside the corridor.
This is the second floor, and there is a third floor above. In the middle of the corridor is the stairway to the third floor.
There was a public green leather trash can at the entrance of the stairs. The smell of burning leather came from there, and there was a faint light from the fire around the corner.
It's not really on fire, is it?
I took my phone and walked over quickly.
"who!"
"Who's there!" I just walked to the stairwell when I suddenly saw a woman squatting on the ground.
There was a washbasin on the floor, with something burning in the basin, and some chicken feathers scattered around the washbasin.
Hearing me calling her, the woman who was burning things looked up, and I suddenly saw her face, which nearly scared me to death in the middle of the night.
This middle-aged woman was in her forties or fifties, had short hair, and was wearing red plush pajamas. What frightened people was her face. Her face was covered with dense red pimples, which might be a skin disease like acne.
Damn it...I was so scared that I cursed, couldn't hold it back, and kicked this woman on the head...
I kicked her in the head and she was lying on the stairs screaming.
Only then did I realize that this was a person, and I immediately had the courage to ask loudly: "You're so scared! What are you doing! Burning something at the entrance of the corridor in the middle of the night!"
The middle-aged woman sat up and covered her head. Her voice was like a rooster's crow, thin and long.
"I see you guys are about to die, and I want to save your lives out of kindness. Why are you kicking me? It hurts my aunt to death."
When I heard her curse us to death, I frowned and said, "Are you sick? I think you are about to die."
This woman in pajamas with acne on her face stood up holding on to the railing, pointed at me and said: "I know you don't believe it, but... young man, I think you will be in jail in the future. Not only you, but also everyone who follows me in the future."
The people around you will die violently and go to jail. If you want to solve the problem, come to the live poultry market to find me tomorrow afternoon."
After speaking, the woman with acne looked at me deeply, put a rag on her face, carried the washbasin, and went downstairs to leave.
I was stunned on the spot, or rather, frightened by her words.
"Death...jail...jail."
These words have always been the deepest fear buried in my heart.
I returned to my room feeling a little dejected, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep and suffering from insomnia.
When I got up the next morning and went downstairs, I saw Bald Mopping the floor on the first floor, so I asked him: "Brother Fa, let me ask you something. Is there a woman in your building who is in her forties or fifty years old?"
, short hair, and acne all over her face, it looks a bit scary.”
The bald man held the mop cloth, looked at me and nodded: "Yes, brother, you are talking about Chicken Feet Woman, right? She sets up a stall in the live poultry market and sells chickens. She doesn't stay in my hotel. Why, brother, have you seen her?"
Did she? Did it scare you? "
I shook my head and said that it really scared me last night.
I took out a cigarette and gave it to Bald Hair, and asked him where this chicken-footed woman was from.
The bald man put the mop aside, lit the cigarette I handed over, took a puff and said: "She, what do you want me to say? Everyone who lives near the old town of Lanzhou knows her. Some people call her a magic stick, and some call her
Chicken witch, if a child loses his soul, an old man dies, or suffers from hysteria, people who believe in this will go to her."
"Why, what did she tell you?"
I nodded, shook my head, and said I didn't say anything. I was just curious and asked.
Perhaps because he got into the mood while smoking, Bald Hair told me something that he said happened a few months ago.
At that time, this incident was very famous in the Chengguan District of Lanzhou.
The bald man said that there is a family in Yaxinyuan, Chengguan District, with a family of three. The man works at a substation as an electrician, and the woman takes care of her child at home. The child is nine years old. Last month, the child suddenly seemed to have changed.
Like a human being, he always locks his parents in the room with the key when they are not paying attention. Then the child turns on the TV in the room alone and learns to dance square dance on the TV.
After hearing this, I frowned and asked, "What does this mean?"
The bald man held a cigarette in one hand and said, brother, don't panic, I haven't finished talking yet.
"This incident became a big fuss. I heard it was even published in the morning newspaper. It spread not only to Yaxinyuan, but also to Xiba Dam and Renjiazhuang."
