    There's a saying: throughout history, many things that defy scientific explanation may not have been created by human imagination alone. Some resentments seem to lurk in the dark corners of the world, ready to spread at any moment. A bus full of guests travels along a winding country road, its destination a lively wedding. On board, a pregnant woman surnamed Ma leans against the window, listlessly watching the scenery rushing by. The country wind, carrying the scent of earth, seeps into the bus through the cracks, brushing against her slightly tired face. Suddenly, Ms. Ma's pupils contract sharply. She sees a ghostly black dot rapidly approaching their bus in the distance. At first, she thinks it's a passerby on a motorcycle, but as the dot gets closer, an indescribable fear instantly overwhelms her. It's something resembling a human. Imagine sitting in a car and seeing a strange, terrifying figure outside! It's something resembling a human, with skin as black as ink, but features typical of Asians. It was eerily tall and thin, with limbs as long and thin as withered wood, dressed in ancient clothing that reeked of decay. Even more chilling was the expression on its face, a twisted, nauseating mix of crying and laughing. Its speed was beyond comprehension, easily keeping pace with the speeding car. Ms. Ma stared at it in terror, only to see its eyes dart around in an illogical way, its cold, empty gaze piercing her eyes. "Ah! What... What is that? Outside... Outside... What is that?!" Ms. Ma leaned back in terror, slamming heavily against her seat, her scream shattering the atmosphere in the car. Those around her were startled by her sudden scream, casting concerned and puzzled glances. "What's wrong? What did you see?" Following her terrified gaze, everyone looked out the window, but all they saw was an empty road and swaying trees, nothing else.
