  THE/TOMAS/SON/FAMILY – VI : The Lord of The Ghastly Cabin

  Late night. The blue light from a computer screen illuminates the faces of countless people who have stayed up late.

  Gods live. Online chat platform. World – Warsaw District Channel.

  Countless pop-ups scrolled rapidly across the screen.

  ”Are you guys …… still awake?”

  ”Harm, who can sleep looking at these? I don’t have to go to work tomorrow, my boss is in the game, I saw him died with my own eyes.”

  ”It’s amazing, I don’t even have internet at home, and this can be on live streaming?”

  ”Has today been any less strange? Ugh, whatever, are there any good-looking gamer little brothers and sisters for me to lick my face?”

  ”The good-looking ones are all vases and become the first to die. I’m watching a live feed from Thailand right now, and holy shit, the real-life version of evil spirits descending, it’s so exciting.”

  ”I’m watching the one over in Europe, with witch hunts and demon sacrifices, emmm, it’s pretty local.”

  ”You can’t say that, right? There are some people that are both good looking and powerful. I found one today, and the part about her hand tearing the grudge spirit made me weak in the knees.”

  ”I know her! Lin RuiRui, right? I’m watching her district live.”

  ”I’m also watching Lin Rurui ……”

  .

  ”What are you doing here?” Under the moonlight, Lin Rurui asked in a soft voice.

  Xue Feier replied with a hard mouth, “What’s it to you?”

  The amber eyes on the other side of the room narrowed slightly like a cat’s. She was electrified and couldn’t help herself. With a jolt of electricity, she couldn’t help but say, “I’m looking for something.”

  ”Looking for what?”

  ”The residuals from the soup… You’ll never guess what I found in today’s broth.”

  Lin Rurui raised his eyebrows. Xue Feier looked around nervously and came up and said, “Class President has a blue soccer tattoo on his arm, I saw it in the broth today ……”.

  After she finished speaking, she sized up Lin Rurui’s look. But Lin Rurui showed little surprise: “How do you know it’s not you who’s mistaking it?”

  “That’s why I came to find it!” Xue Feier felt that Lin Rurui didn’t trust her, and became a little angry, “Forget it.”

  The grass in the corner was blown by the wind, and there was a stench of decay. When she saw the bucket, she picked up the spoon and stirred up the sticky residue with disgust, but the smell made her nauseous.

  ”Is it this one?” Lin Rurui said suddenly. Xue Feier turned her head suspiciously and saw her standing in front of the kennel, kicking the dog bowl, and a piece of meat paste fell out of it.

  It was a piece of soccer tattoo that had been eaten until only half of it remained.

  Xue Feier covered her mouth so she didn’t scream. The two of them went back to pry open the place where the class president was buried, and only a bloody skeleton with strands of flesh remained in the pit. Xue Feier realized something and felt a strong sense of nausea: “They…”

  “Shh.” Lin Rurui whispered, “Don’t tell anyone about this beforehand, so we could catch them off guard.”

  “You want me to deceive everyone?”

  “This couple is the owners of the cabin, and the consequences of angering them are unthinkable.”

  Xue Feier bit her lower lip, thought it over, and had to give in.

  .

  The night breeze was deep and cold, whistling against the window frames. Daniel, shivering with a kerosene lamp in his hand, fished out an old, tattered cotton coat from the closet.

  His room was bare, almost empty except for his bed and closet. A pink rabbit leaned against the bed. It was his little sister Emma’s favorite doll before she died, and after Emma died, Daniel took it as Emma’s substitute. Only when he held the pink rabbit in his arms could he sleep peacefully.

  He bought the cotton jacket many years ago, and it’s actually not too big for Daniel’s size anymore. But on such a cold night, in order not to freeze to death, he still had to wrap the tight cotton coat around his body.

  Before he went to bed, he checked the lock with the lamp to make sure it was locked correctly before he went to bed.

  He held “Emma” tightly in his arms, and gradually his consciousness became a little fuzzy. The sound of the wind whistling outside the window gave him a long-lost sense of security, as if he were lying in the rumbling arms of a giant.

  Suddenly, there was a low rustling at the door, and in the midnight silence, which was nothing but the whistling of the wind, something was jiggling the chains!

  He sat up and looked at the door, where an iron hook was protruding through the crack in the door, quietly moving the padlock.

  Daniel was horrified and immediately pushed the table over against the door. A moment later, his mother’s soft, gentle voice came over to him: “Daniel, are you awake? Open the door for Mom and I’ll gibe you a blanket.”

  Without saying a word, Daniel pried open a tile at the foot of the bed and took out the rope hidden underneath it. He gingerly made his way to the window without making a sound.

  Until the window was opened and the cold, bone-chilling wind whistled open the curtains and the kerosene lamp faltered a few times, falling to the floor with a crack.

  ”Daniel.” The female voice on the other side of the door went somber, “Open the door! Hurry up and open the door!” Daniel had to lean in to get Emma, and then he saw the iron hook snap back, but then suddenly an icy blade came out.

  He shuddered, quickly took Emma in his arms, climbed up onto the ledge, and tied the rope to the hook outside the house.

  Below his feet was the backyard, thirty meters from the ground, and the cold wind made him shake, and the rope that wasn’t hung securely, breaking out in a cold sweat.

  The woman outside the door was already in a frenzy, wielding a knife and slashing wildly at the door, shrieking and cursing, “Bastard! I gave birth to you and this is how you repay me? Open the door! Open the door! I’m going to teach you a lesson you’ll never forget!!!”

  Daniel tied the rope around his waist and climbed down the ridge. The woman burst open the door, slammed the table, and rushed in with a fierce grimace. But Daniel had already landed in the courtyard and stumbled out of the cabin.

  The woman’s screams were blown away by the wind, and echoed.

  It began to snow, and it continued to snow all night.

  .

  The next morning.

  A sleepless night. Everyone came downstairs with large black circles under their eyes, dragging their tired bodies along.

  Among them, Xue Feier had the darkest circles under her eyes and looked extremely haggard. Not only was she frightened last night, but also had to keep a horrifying secret, and was so worried that she couldn’t sleep all night. She looked up, but someone had already taken a seat in the living room with great vigor.

  Lin Rurui was sipping orange juice and talking to Morgan, who was reading the newspaper, as if last night’s discovery had simply been Xue Feier’s experience alone. Xue Feier admired her mental strength while rubbing her arm and sneezed.

  As if it was a signal, everyone began to sneeze. Last night, because of the snow, the temperature plummeted and many people woke up feeling dizzy and cols.

  ”I’ll go get some warm clothes for everyone,” Jenny said gently and virtuously.

  After wrapping up the cold-weather clothing, breakfast was ready. It was orange juice and fried eggs, and fortunately there was no broth, or else Xue Feier wouldn’t have known how to control her face.

  Everyone was sitting around the table in a quiet atmosphere, and only the sound of knives and forks clashing against porcelain plates was occasionally heard.

  Sensing something was wrong, Old Li looked up and looked around the circle: “How come so many people didn’t come down? Are they all caught a cold?”

  At that moment, a boy stumbled into the living room, a look of panic exploding on his face: “People are missing!”

  This morning, the man in charge of delivering food to the wounded rescued from the bus pushed open the door, but the room where the wounded were housed was empty. There were a lot of injured people with broken arms and legs, and it was unlikely that they could get downstairs on their own.

  He had some doubts in his mind, until he searched the cabin and could not see these people, and then he hurried down to report.

  The people went cold, and immediately put down their half-eaten breakfast and looked for people in the cabin.

  There was no one in the bathroom, courtyard or side room. The sheets in the room were in disarray, and there were half-eaten canned food on the table, as if these people had evaporated into thin air.

  The crowd was frightened and noisy. Someone said, “Is it possible that the spirits had come to us?

  ”No way!” Xue Feier’s eyebrow twitched, and she retorted, “I was on the bus too, why didn’t the spirits come to me?”

  Her boyfriend Song Sheng agreed: “I was on the bus too, but I didn’t notice anything strange last night.”

  Old Li felt that it made sense and looked at Lin Rurui: “Student Lin, what do you think?” The situation was beyond the scope of Old Li’s grasp, and he habitually turned to Lin Rurui for help.

  All of them kept quiet and waited cautiously for her to speak. But Lin Rurui said indifferently, “What are you asking me for? I don’t know.”

  They didn’t know whether she really didn’t know or not, the crowd was discouraged and had to gather around to explore other possibilities.

  ”Could it be that they were so afraid that they ran away in the night?”

  The more they thought about it, the more sense it made, the more they pushed open the cabin door, and a cold wind poured in, mixed with drifting snow. Outside the door was wrapped in silver, snow piled up on the steps.

  Someone said, “It snowed last night at three o’clock in the morning, and I’m afraid they left before three o’clock in the morning, so they didn’t leave any footprints.

  Someone else said, “It’s also possible that the snow covered the footprints after it snowed.” The boys in the class asked the Thomason family to borrow a shovel and shoveled open the snow in the yard, but the half-melted snow stained the ground so wet that it was impossible to see anything.

  Lin Rurui went around the backyard and brought in the napping pitbull: “The only direction they left was the woods, I’ll go look in the woods.

  Old Li was horrified: “No! How dangerous is it in those woods, and what if something happens?”

  Lin Rurui said, “I’ll be careful.”

  She took the leash and walked straight out of the courtyard, followed by Xu Lie. Lin Rurui asked him what he was doing, and Xu Lie said, “Boss, I’ll follow you.” Before he said anything, the pit bull suddenly barked at him, and his form was fierce.

  The pitbull suddenly barked at him, with a fierce form and fierce teeth. Lin Rurui said, “That won’t work, if this dog bites you, I can’t defend against it.” In fact, she didn’t want Xu Lie to follow her and bring the camera with him, hindering her movements.

  Xu Lie’s face was blue and white, both from cold and fear, but still insisted, Lin Rurui had no choice, and could not tell him not to follow.

  She waved a blood-stained clothes in front of the dog’s nose, and the Pitbull barked twice and walked into the woods.

  The terrain was slightly steep, the snow was heavy and slippery, and the temperature was cold, making the trek difficult. It didn’t take long for Lin Rurui’s boots to be stained the color of mud. Xu Lie, on the other hand, had to stop to catch his breath after walking for a short distance.

  After about forty minutes of walking, the trees around them thinned out and they came to a clearing in the forest.

  The moment they saw the scenery in the clearing, Xu Lie’s pupils constricted like needles, and he was full of shock, “This, this is…”
