I heard that on the day I was born, there was lightning and thunder, and strange phenomena appeared in the sky. Someone told me my fortune and told me that my horoscope was Yin and I was prone to seeing ghosts. They also said that I was a lone star of evil and would defeat anyone I encountered. @ Douchengbaye. . . . Of course, my parents would not believe such nonsense at all, and they even called the man a liar. I thought this problem would be over soon, but since I was born, strange things have happened one after another in my family. "I would rather believe that there is something than nothing..." My mother said to my dad, "How about we run away!" "You want to immigrate abroad?" "Don't you ever think about it?" "Immigration is a good idea... But what about the child?" "Your mother has a strong character, of course let her take care of it!" "But..." "Oh, choice outweighs hard work... Mother-in-law and mother-in-law can't do anything big! Besides..." She touched her belly, "Giving up the car to save the handsome, the large size won't work, we still have the small size!" "But is this good?" "I don't care anyway, I have to go abroad to give birth to the child!" She continued to explain, "Also... I am a biological mother, not a stepmother, can I not feel bad for the flesh that falls off my body?" I was not yet a year old when my parents left. My grandma gritted her teeth and picked me up, saying, "You can't help your mother when you grow up... I'm so sorry for this kid!" The first few years were really normal, and I didn't encounter the same weird things as my parents. But as I grew up, those weird things happened one after another. "My child, don't blame grandma for being cruel!" Grandma burst into tears. "Since ancient times, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have been conflicted. Those who say I am tough must be liars..." "Are you talking about my mother?" "It's all over anyway!" She frowned, "You should understand what I mean, right...?" "So you still think I'm trying to defeat you?" "My child, my grandma is also a highly educated intellectual... But as the old saying goes, it is better to believe what is true than what is not true... There is nothing I can do about it!" "Didn't you find someone to help me change my horoscope?" "Treating the symptoms instead of the root cause... I shouldn't have spent that wasted money at that time!" "But I am only five years old... Do you have the heart to abandon me, regardless of whether I live or die?" "Can you think so, I will definitely be more promising than your father when I grow up!" "So you still decide to send me to this school where dogs don't go?" "If dogs don't go, let's go!" She comforted with a smile, "My child, I've asked an expert to figure it out... The feng shui of this school can actually suppress you, oh no... It can prosper you!" "Does it suppress me or prosper me?" "Anyway, this is a school in Yishui. Both the teachers and the school environment are among the best in the industry!" "From elementary school to high school... One-stop service?" "Yeah." She nodded, "And the college admission rate is 100%!" "It seems that my dad has given a lot of sponsorship fees!" "Who said he only has a son like you!" "But I heard..." "Those are all rumors! I guarantee that no one has died in this school!" "Really?" "Don't listen to those people who say sour grapes!" She said and gave a thumbs up, "You know it is the best boarding school in the city!" "But..." "I know you are a well-behaved and filial child!" "But..." "You also hope that grandma will live a few more years..." .....

Today's update, "Barber Corpse" The story revolves around the "Qingsi Lane" barber shop in the old city, where there is a strange legend about "barbering the dead head" - it can cut the hair of the deceased for the last time and help his soul return home. Due to his grandmother's last words, the protagonist explores this shop and encounters the shop owner "The Man Without Eyebrows": he has no eyebrows and uses silver scissors to cut the hair of "special customers" (the deceased). The shop is filled with the smell of formalin and rancid mixture, and the walls are covered with black and white photos with empty eyes. The protagonist discovers that the eyebrowless man is actually a paper man soaked in corpse oil, and that the silver scissors cut not the hair but the soul. He encountered horrific incidents many times: he was aging rapidly in the mirror, his hair was tangled, and he was chased by an eyebrowless man holding silver scissors. During the period, the teahouse owner recounted the past of the barbershop, revealing behind it the inheritance of the "Huihun Pavilion" that connects Yin and Yang, as well as the secret of the death of the old man with pigtails and the replacement of the paper man. The protagonist confronts the eyebrowless man many times, and finally burns him and the "material" made from his hair with fire in a supermarket warehouse. But there are always endless white hairs on his temples, suggesting that the bond between this terrifying memory and the dead souls cannot be completely dissipated, leaving a lingering and strange aftertaste.
