Chapter 1: Things That Shouldn’t Appear
There is a very strange mountain called Pig's Hoof Mountain.
The mountain was shaped like a huge pig's hoof that stepped on the earth.
Two days ago, a person died in this mountain, the death was quite weird, it was said to be haunted, the villagers in the neighborhood were scared to death, once it was dark, they didn't dare to go out, for fear that they would also encounter ghosts.
However, just tonight in the early hours of the morning, a dilapidated van, suddenly appeared in the pig's hoof mountain mountain road, bumpy driving, the lights seem to be a bit of a problem, bright and dark.
"It's too late, it's too late, someone just died on this mountain road, don't let anything happen tonight!"
The driver of the van had a cigarette in his mouth, his expression a little anxious, and rushed at the teenager who was napping on the passenger side, complaining, "Meng Fan, you really shouldn't have gotten it so late!"
"Pillar, I'm sorry, I didn't know the train would be late, drive slowly, there's no rush."
The teenager was full of apologies and pacified the driver, the window glass reflected his face, looking a little tired.
His name was Meng Fan, he had just graduated from university, he was quite clean looking, his body exuded a light scholarly temperament, he hadn't found a suitable job inside the city, and was planning to go home for a while to plan for the future.
"Brother ah, don't blame me for speaking out of turn." The driver called Pillar rolled down the window and spat his cigarette into the darkness outside the car, "We are brothers who have played together since childhood, I'm willing to pick you up even if it's late, but it's not the right time for you to come back."
Meng Fan heard confused: "What do you mean it is not the time?"
"This road just died!" Pillar looked ahead with palpitations, "The person who died was Zhang Carpenter from our village."
"Huh?" Meng Fan froze upon hearing this, under the impression that Zhang Carpenter was physically strong and didn't seem like a short-lived person, so he asked Pillar, "How did he die?"
"It's weird to say!" Pillar can not help but light another cigarette, sucked a mouthful, smoke scattered to the outside of the car window to go, "two days ago in the middle of the night, Zhang carpenter from the county pulling work back, in this mountain road to see should not see things, go home and lie down for two days on the death, you guess what he saw?"
"Shouldn't see things?" Meng Fan put his sight into the darkness outside the car window, there are too many unknown things in this world, what mankind has at his disposal is but a drop in the ocean, so he shook his head, "What is it?"
"A stoplight!"
Pillar with a cigarette hand, in the air to draw a circle, voice a little shaky: "Zhang carpenter in this road to see the traffic light, you know, our poor countryside, but also all the fucking goat intestine mountain road, the whole village are not a few cars, how can there be traffic lights!"
"The appearance of this thing is a bit strange ah, you can say in detail about the situation when Zhang carpenter died not."
Hearing such a story in the middle of the night and on a quiet mountain road, Meng Fan felt a chill down his spine, but couldn't help but want to figure it out.
"Don't be afraid if I tell you." Pillar lowered his voice, somewhat scornful, "Zhang Carpenter's death was as miserable as it could be, his eyes were bulging out, poofing out black blood, emitting a foul odor! Before he died, he kept screaming, "Red light will kill you in two days, green light will let you live for three days!"
"Damn, that's scary!" Meng Fan sucked in a mouthful of cool air, feeling creepy, and asked, "Did the village people go to investigate afterward? Is there a traffic light or not?"
"Of course investigated, all the way to find, which has what traffic lights it, surely is haunted! Frightened everyone dare not go out, if not we grew up, I also lack of money to marry a wife, do not dare to come out to get you, life is important ah!"
Pillar sighed, shook his head, just to continue to say, suddenly the body trembled, instantly tense, eyes staring straight ahead, as if by something terrible hooked soul, the mouth of the cigarette fell into the legs are oblivious to the horror of reaching out and pointing to the front shouted: "Mengfan, fast …… look, that! is what?!"
"What?!"
Because of what he had heard about the dead, Meng Fan's heart was in a state of horror, and when he saw the pillar shrieking, he shivered in fear, and raised his head sharply, looking ahead –
Only to see a blur of light that pierced through the darkness and appeared without warning on the road the van was traveling on!
A red, a green, two lights, alternately lit up and extinguished!
It really was just like a traffic light!
This light appeared so abruptly in the darkness of the night, on the winding, goat-intestinal mountain road, revealing endless eeriness, as if glowing ghostly eyes, waiting for the passersby to come ……
"I …… we met that …… ghost thing!"
Pillar voice changed tone, the whole person is frozen, the car is still driving forward, seems to be attracted by that traffic light.
"Pillar, quick brake!"
Seeing the van driving more and more quickly towards the traffic light, Meng Fan at this time saw such a creepy scene with his own eyes, he also couldn't help but sweat his hairs up, forcibly holding back his panic, he shouted at the shivering pillar!
"Grass! Can't brake it!"
The pillar trembled, reacted, and immediately kept stepping on the brakes, but the car didn't slow down in the slightest, and saw it rushing towards the stoplight.
"Finished!"
Looking at the hazy red light, Meng Fan was struck by lightning, at this moment the light is red, if what the column said is true, then broke the red light, he and the column are only two days of life, because of that Zhang carpenter said before he died, the red light two days to kill you, the green light can only live for three days!
"No, if I really have to die, I have to fight to live one more day! Quickly change the light, change the green light!"
Meng Fan hissed, leapt up haughtily from the passenger side and rolled towards the back of the van, intending to use the length of the van's body to buy time to change the light!
Unfortunately for him, when he had just rolled to the back seat of the car, the green light was brightly lit!
"I …… I made it? Can live one more day?"
Meng Fan's body shivered, his heart pounding, while the van rushed through the stoplight before slowly coming to a stop.
"It's over, it's over! Fear what comes!" Pillar was so scared that his face turned pale, fished out a big wrench from under the car seat, opened the door and jumped out of the car, angrily yelling to the back, "Damn it, dare to scare me, demolish you!"
"Be careful!"
Seeing this, Meng Fan also followed closely and got out of the car, the night was deep and the mountain wind was a bit cold.
"Where's the traffic light?"
"How come it's gone?!"
Two people stared at each other with wide eyes, face to face, looking at the road in horror, the mountain road was like a long snake, disappeared in the night, the roadside was overgrown with weeds, not even a single tree, lonely and desolate, where is the traffic light?
"Pillar, Zhang carpenter thing you're not lying to me, right?"
Things came to a strange end, Meng Fan couldn't help but ask, seeing a traffic light can really kill a person?
"Why would I lie to you!" The pillar trembled and touched out a cigarette, handing it to Meng Fan, "Zhang carpenter's grave pits are all I dug and buried his grave with my own hands."
"Although this is true, but ……"
Meng Fan frowned tightly, his eyesight looked into the distance, suddenly his face brushed and changed, fiercely backed up two steps, reached out and pointed to the place where the traffic light had just appeared, and cried out in disbelief, "That …… that's who you say he is!"
