Is there really a ghost in this world?
I have lived for twenty years without ever seeing a ghost; what I have seen are merely people pretending to be supernatural. If there truly are ghosts in this world, I doubt they would be anything remarkable. Sometimes, people can be far more frightening than ghosts.
Take the incredibly ugly woman sitting in front of me, for instance. If it were nighttime, perhaps someone might mistake her for a ghost.
Early this morning, Zhao Mingkun took us out to investigate the truth behind the matter. To uncover the truth, we first needed to understand who this woman named Chu Mei was and why the villagers were so afraid of her, as well as the connection between Chu Mei and the Tomb Robber Six Brothers.
So here we were, sitting in front of this woman.
I scrutinized her closely, trying to find even a hint of charm within her. A great sculptor once said that life is not lacking in beauty but rather in the eyes that perceive it. If that were true, then my eyes must be utterly useless.
I had never seen a woman whose features were all unattractive; not a single aspect was pleasing.
Her eyes were barely visible, just slits with murky sclera and crusted corners. Her nose flared outward, revealing long nose hairs. Her mouth was agape, showcasing crooked yellow teeth that seemed to have never encountered a toothbrush. Her ears were flat and nearly nonexistent unless one looked very closely.
Her face was covered with inflamed acne, suggesting she was still quite young; her figure was proportionate, indicating she was likely under thirty.
She seemed to be about the same age as Zhao Mingkun, yet they gave off entirely different vibes—one made you want to commit a crime, while the other instilled fear of her committing one.
This extraordinarily ugly woman was named Daiyu; I wondered if her parents were fans of "Dream of the Red Chamber." Before Chu Mei's death, she and Daiyu were close friends. However, ever since Chu Mei passed away five years ago, Daiyu had become somewhat depressed and even exhibited signs of neurosis.
Daiyu was already unattractive; five years ago, she had stopped washing her face or combing her hair. If it weren't for her family visiting once a month to help her trim her hair, it would likely have become matted and foul by now. Yet we could still smell an odor emanating from her feet; judging by their yellowish-black appearance, it seemed she hadn't washed them in quite some time.
Even Wang Er Gou, who had a strong stomach for unpleasantness, kept his distance upon catching a whiff of that smell, highlighting just how pungent it was.
I have always believed that appearance and background do not define a person; just like how I was often teased as the son of a murderer during my childhood. But when I saw Daiyu, I found it hard to maintain my composure—this is humanity's inherent flaw. Human nature is fundamentally evil; no matter how deeply it is buried, it remains.
As I stared at her feet, Daiyu deliberately wiggled her toes and said, "Do you want to come over and take a closer sniff?"
I nearly vomited the breakfast I had eaten that morning and quickly waved my hand. "We're here to ask about Chu Mei. Why does it seem like everyone in the village is so afraid of her?"
After Zhao Mingkun pulled out a thousand yuan, Daiyu began to tell us a story.
Daiyu and Chu Mei had been best friends since childhood. They ate together, drank together, and sometimes even slept on the same bed. They had been inseparable since school, through middle school and high school. Both of them performed well academically, but Chu Mei's grades were even better.
When it came time for the college entrance examination, they both applied to the same university and were fortunate enough to be accepted together.
Their bond was so strong that others often wondered if the two girls were in a romantic relationship.
However, when Chu Mei started dating, those rumors quickly faded away. Still, aside from going to hotels, Chu Mei liked to bring Daiyu along for everything else. Many girls envied them, wishing they could have such a close friend in their lives.
Daiyu had few friends due to her appearance. Even those who played with her would unconsciously look at her with strange eyes. Although these college students never mocked Daiyu's looks, she knew deep down that they looked down on her.
Daiyu remembered that whenever the teacher called her name, it would provoke laughter from her classmates.
Lin Daiyu—what a beautiful name.
Though these kids had never opened the first page of "Dream of the Red Chamber," they all knew it was one of China's four great classical novels and that Lin Daiyu was a beautiful protagonist within it. Her parents named her Lin Daiyu, perhaps hoping their daughter would be both beautiful and talented. But those who had never read "Dream of the Red Chamber" might not realize what truly accompanied Daiyu throughout her life.
She needed friends more than anyone else, yet she only had one true friend—Chu Mei.
But during one holiday when she returned home, Lin Daiyu lost her only friend.
It was a night five years ago.
Daiyu and Chu Mei got off the train at 11 o'clock at night. Then they took the bus to the county, and then walked back to their homes. At this moment, it was already 2 o'clock in the Early Morning. It’s summer vacation. Chu Mei and Daiyu originally planned to stay in school and work part-time, but their families strongly urged them to come back. Their family is not considered poor and there is no need to go out to work. Besides, why don't parents want their daughter to spend more time with them? After all, it's not easy to see anyone who gets married. The girls walked forward while chatting. The roads in the county are dark and long, and there are no street lights on both sides. On both sides of the road is the endless Cornfield. The corn is growing well this year and is as tall as half a person! This is the source of their county's survival, and it is also the source of fear in the hearts of the two girls. Because they always feel that there seems to be something terrifying hidden under the corn stalks that sway with the cool breeze. Then, two people rushed out. Daiyu screamed, and the sharp sound cut through the night, causing countless insects to close their mouths in shock. But the next moment, her mouth was covered by a big hand. Daiyu struggled and resisted, but to no avail. This man was 1.75 meters tall and very powerful. Daiyu was no match at all. She looked out of the corner of her eye and saw that Chu Mei was also being controlled by someone. The two people were quickly dragged into Cornfield, and the insects sang happily again. The breeze was still blowing in Cornfield, and the corn stalks were swaying gently. It was as if the two girls had never appeared on the road. On the road, everything was so peaceful. But in Cornfield, there is movement. Someone blocked the mouths of Lin Daiyu and Chu Mei with cloths. They tore the clothes of Lin Daiyu and Chu Mei, and they took off their own clothes at the same time. Under the moonlight, Lin Daiyu saw a man's things for the first time, and she was extremely scared. She didn't know what to do, she turned around and saw Chu Mei. She saw that someone was already lying on Chu Mei's body. Those people were all wearing cartoon masks, and the person lying on Chu Mei stuck his tongue out through the mask. This tongue slides on Chu Mei's face like a flexible snake, full of saliva. At the same time, his body began to twitch.
LinDaiyu was also prepared to accept such a bleak end, but she suddenly found that the person pressing her had no next move. "This bitch is so fucking ugly!" The person holding Daiyu said: "It's really a fire, she withered instantly." Another person said: "Damn, there must be something wrong with you. What did you do before? No, it's the same even when the lights are turned off. Why are you so weak now? Get out of here. If you don't come, I'll do it first." Then, this person came over. But when he saw Daiyu's face, the rapist sighed: "Oh, it's quite pitiful to look like this. Although I have done all kinds of bad things, I am still a principled person. We six It's not impossible to fuck a girl alone. You have to hold her tight and don't let her escape. I'll take over in a while." The others all agreed. Rapists also have their own aesthetics. So Daiyu watched with tears as six people took turns crawling on Chu Mei's body. Sometimes, there were even three people lying on Daiyu's body. And she was held down by someone, forcing her to watch these people's bestiality. These were the three most painful moments in her life. By the end, Chu Mei was already unconscious. These people surrounded Chu Mei and defecated on Chu Mei. Chu Mei was shaking all over. Her mouth was blocked by a rag and she could only make a "gurgling" sound. It was very hoarse and resembled the female ghost heard in Daiyu in horror movies. sound. Daiyu I don’t know how to describe my mood. If it weren’t for her face, she should have ended up like this. The six people looked at Chu Mei lying on the ground and Daiyu slumped on the ground. "Bitch, you are no longer a ***** at any age." Wei Wei spat on the ground: "Are you?" Daiyu nodded quickly. "Brother, you're asking for nothing." Another person said with a smile, "I don't believe any expert would dare to have sex with her." After that, everyone burst into laughter.
The elder brother found a large stone in the field and looked at the twitching body of Chu Mei, saying, "A bitch like you has no meaning in this world. You're doing well, keep it up, ha ha."
As he watched Daiyu, he brought the stone down with force. In an instant, blood and brain matter splattered everywhere, drenching him and covering Daiyu from head to toe. Daiyu was so shocked that she sat there frozen, unable to move, watching as the six figures disappeared into the cornfield.
It took a long time for Daiyu to realize what she should do. Sitting beside Chu Mei's corpse, she called the police.
She stared at Chu Mei's body, the back of her head crushed by the stone, blood and brain fluid slowly oozing out, mingling with the urine of the six men, flowing into the field and into Daiyu's heart. Chu Mei's face was turned towards Daiyu, her eyes wide open. Perhaps in her last moments, Chu Mei thought to herself, "Why did it have to be me?"
The police investigated the scene and took a statement from Daiyu.
That night, the six men vanished without a trace and have yet to be caught.
After that incident, Daiyu never dared to wash her face or dress up again.
"I survived because I was ugly."
Later on, when people asked Daiyu what had happened that night, she always responded in the same way.
Five years passed in a flash. No one wanted to hear Daiyu's story anymore. She lived alone in that dilapidated house for five years without anyone coming to disturb her.
