Chapter 9 The Kiln Haunted
The kiln factory is about half a mile away from the village. There is a desolate grassland with overgrown weeds. Before the kiln factory came, no one usually went there.

The kiln factory is very large, and more than a dozen workers are working hard.A worker shed was built on one side of the kiln, and the workers outside the kiln told us that the boss was inside the shed.

When I came to the first room of the shed, there was a middle-aged man in his forties sitting in the room.The man's surname was Fu. When he saw us, he got up and greeted us with a smile: "Mr. Guo, you're here, come in and sit down."

Although he looked very polite, I found that his smile was just a polite smile, or forced to pretend, because I could easily see that the man surnamed Fu had a sad look on his face , even the smile on his face at this time couldn't hide it.

The old patriarch Guo knew the owner of the kiln factory surnamed Fu. After all, the land used by the kiln factory belonged to Guo Village. Naturally, the patriarch had to negotiate with the patriarch when he came here to build the kiln factory.

Boss Fu moved two chairs for us, and then asked the patriarch curiously why he had time to come to this poor place.The patriarch said, I actually came to find you on purpose.

Boss Fu was very puzzled, and asked: "Guo Laoxun, what's the matter with me, just say, as long as I can do it, I will definitely not refuse."

Seeing that Boss Fu was very enthusiastic and righteous, the patriarch didn't go around the bush and spoke directly. He pointed at me and said to Boss Fu, "This gentleman is a very capable Yin-Yang gentleman in our place. Feng Shui, the master said that this kiln factory is very bad, so I came here specially to talk to you, Boss Fu."

Boss Fu listened to Mr. Guo's words, then set his eyes on me, looked me up and down, and then held my hand tightly, as if seeing his own father who had been lost for several years , Made me and the old patriarch Guo stunned.You must know that we came to ask him for help, and hope he can agree to stop the kiln and rebuild it in another place.But looking at the posture in front of him, why does it seem to be completely reversed?Could it be that the boss surnamed Fu has something to ask for my help?

I asked him, did Boss Fu encounter any troubles right now?

Boss Fu nodded and said, Mr. is amazing, he actually found out that my kiln factory is a murderer, and this is what I have a headache for, Mr. need to help me!

Hearing this, I came to my senses. There must be some trouble in the kiln factory. This surnamed Fu thought that the old patriarch Guo brought me to help him solve the disaster. No wonder he held my hand and refused to let go Woolen cloth!
Wanting to understand this, I asked Boss Fu what happened to the kiln factory.Boss Fu sighed, and expressed his distress.

It turned out that when the surname Fu came to this village to build a kiln factory, something strange happened not long after.At that time, the kiln factory had only built one kiln, and the workers only invited four or five people. One night, one of the workers got up to relieve himself at night, and suddenly saw a man standing in front of the kiln, dressed in black, with his back to him. ,not moving at all.

The worker was curious, who was it in the middle of the night, why did he wander around the kiln door without sleeping?

It is said that the worker thought that the black figure standing in front of the kiln was his fellow worker, and seeing that he couldn’t fall asleep anyway, he took out a pack of cigarettes and was about to light it. The man in black at the entrance of the kiln walked over, intending to ask him for a fire.

Soon, the worker came behind the man in black, so he asked the man, who, why couldn't sleep and ran out in the middle of the night?

But the man in black didn't answer him, and still turned his back to him.The worker was curious, so he looked at his back under the moonlight, only to realize that this person did not seem to be his coworker.So he said, brother, you are from this village, do you have a fire, can you borrow a fire?

After saying that, the man in black stretched out his hand and handed him a box of matches, but he still didn't come back and didn't speak.

The worker took the fire, lit the cigarette, and returned the match.It's just that I feel very strange, why is this person silent?So he wanted to see who this person was. He tugged on the other person's sleeve, trying to make the other person turn around, but the other person ignored him at all.

Now the worker muttered, thinking why is this person so weird?So I went over to see him.He leaned over from the left, and the man in black turned his head to the right, and when he moved closer to the right to look, the man in black turned his head to the left, in short, to prevent him from seeing it.

By the way, the worker was a little angry, what the hell was going on, so he patted the man in black on the shoulder and said, Hey, brother, don’t always turn your back on me, everyone can’t sleep, let’s smoke one together Well!

After what he said, the man in black finally reacted, and slowly turned his head around.But when the worker saw the other party's appearance clearly, he was frightened...

The other party is not a human being, but the other party's face is just a flat white board, with no facial features at all, and the eyes, nose and mouth cannot be seen, and the flat face is covered with disgusting maggots one by one!

The worker was so frightened by this scene that he almost fainted from fright at that time, screamed "Oh my god, ghost~" and turned around and ran wildly into the work shed...

The kiln was very close to the work shed, and the other workers who were sleeping in the work shed at that time were all awakened by his screams, and then saw him rushing into the work shed like crazy, his face pale.

Everyone asked him what happened, and he told the workers what he saw, and then they didn't believe it, so they ran out of the shed together and looked at the entrance of the kiln, but there was a ghost over the kiln. None, let alone the Men in Black.

Later, that worker developed a high fever that night. Although the high fever subsided when he was sent to the hospital, he became in a trance. He was startled when asked about anything, and he was a different person from before.Of course, it is impossible for the worker to stay and work here in the end, and he paid the boss a lot of money for this matter.

If you think that this matter is over, then you are wrong. After talking about this matter, Boss Fu then said another thing, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he broke down in tears, and the second thing was obviously a sad thing.

After wiping away tears, Boss Fu continued.He said that right after that worker had an accident, the workers would hear various movements outside the shed every night, sometimes people walking, sometimes people talking, and even a "beep" sounded outside the shed. The sound of the suona instrument was so loud that everyone in the working shed was woken up. The sound did not stop until the sound of cocks crowed in the village half a mile away.

By the way, how could those workers stand the uproar? They all thought this place was too evil. If they continued to work, they would probably end up like the previous worker, so the workers refused to stay in the kiln any more. If you are alive, you won’t do it even if you pay your boss a higher salary.

Boss Fu had no choice, and finally Boss Fu invited one or two masters to come and have a look, but the two masters came to the kiln factory to have a look, and then they said that there is too much violence here, this master can't handle it, you can't do it either. Move away as soon as possible, and then turn around and leave without saying much.

Although Boss Fu was also worried, but a large sum of money was invested in it, how could he just move out, what the hell was he thinking, God, it was all said by people, and no one saw it However, he went back to the city and called his younger brother to help, and there were a dozen workers with his younger brother.But on the second night when his younger brother came here, he died in this kiln!
First of all, on the first night when his younger brother came to the kiln, when he was eating in the shed, he suddenly pulled Boss Fu and said, brother, why are there so many beggars in your kiln?They are so pitiful, why don't we give them some food!

Boss Fu asked his younger brother, where are there any beggars? While asking, he looked outside the shed. Although the outside was brightly lit by the moon, he couldn't see a single person, let alone a beggar.

Unexpectedly, his younger brother pointed to the door of the work shed and said, isn't that right? He is still looking at us eagerly.Alas, they are so pitiful, wearing tattered clothes of unknown age.

Boss Fu was frightened by this, he looked left and right at the door pointed by his younger brother, but he couldn't see the so-called beggar, so he hurriedly pulled his younger brother and said, brother, don't talk nonsense, hurry up and eat, and mind your own business.And he also told his younger brother not to go out at night if he had nothing to do.

His younger brother probably thought that Boss Fu was worried that he would get lost if he was new here, so he didn't take his brother's words seriously.

On the second night, his younger brother suddenly pointed to the outside of the work shed and said to the boss, brother, you lied to me, and you also said that your kiln is very remote. Look outside, there are people everywhere, it is very lively!

Boss Fu glanced outside, there was still no one outside, and now he knew in his heart that there was indeed something wrong with this place, because he didn't have to believe what others said, but he couldn't doubt that his younger brother was also lying to him like this.Of course, in order not to scare his younger brother, he coaxed him a few words, saying that he was from the village, and then hurriedly closed the door of the shed, urging his younger brother to go to bed early, and made up his mind to wait for the bricks in the kiln. When the fire is complete, move the kiln away.

But in the middle of the night that night, suddenly there was a muffled sound from the kiln, which woke up the workers in the shed and Boss Liu. Everyone ran out quickly, and it turned out that one of the kilns had collapsed.

Boss Fu was angry and annoyed, but when he looked around, he realized that his brother was missing, so he started looking for it, but he couldn't find it no matter how hard he looked.

Two days later, the temperature of the collapsed brick kiln cooled down. When everyone dug up the kiln, they were horrified to find that there was a dead body inside.No, it could no longer be called a corpse at that time, but a charred white bone!
Boss Fu recognized from a watch on the bone's wrist that this bone was his younger brother who had been missing for a few days, because he had given that watch to his younger brother.

Of course, afterwards, many people speculated why his brother fell into the kiln with a temperature of thousands of degrees, saying that there were all kinds of things. Maybe his brother might have heard something going on outside, so he ran out to check; or maybe it was him. The younger brother was fascinated by the ghost that night. Anyway, he walked out of the shed alone, and then fell into the kiln strangely.

Speaking of this, Boss Fu burst into tears again, and blamed himself: "Blame me, blame me. I called him here. If it wasn't for me, he wouldn't have died at all."
