It became routine that after the farm work most people gather at someone's house for a joyful party before returning home. Again this time, a group of men met for drink, and everyone hurries back home after the party. some who had nearly house just made it quickly, while others with faraway homes had to travel a relatively long way and arrived home exactly when it got dark. Uncle loeunn, a lone widower, looked so drunk that night that he was very careless. He did not realize that the track ahead was the infamous one. So he kept going on and found himself on the track warned off by the villages.The track was infamous for being haunted because many year ago bandits would robbed village and killed them in the west village, which was why anyone who went through the area was always haunted by those people, who died unnatural death, and succumbed one by one afterward. The area was then said to be prone to death as it claimed one life after another. Uncle Lueunn was not aware that he was talking that death as it claimed one life after another. Uncle was not aware that he was talking that deadly trail... He kept going on, and he then stoppedand stood still when he saw something in front of him. There, a woman was seated at the side of the track, which was so narrow that it was impassable for ox carts. Only pedestrians could make it. Raising eyebrows, Uncle Loeunn came over to the woman, completely drunk and confused, asked: "Miss! Why are you sitting here all alone? ". He even placed his hand on the shoulder if the woman while speaking to her, but he became motionless when the lady turned over to him because she did not look like a human being: she had no eyeballs. They were missing, and she got only the eye sockets, allowing you to see through. Very
frightened, Uncle Loeunn screamed: “Help me! Help me! Whoever can help me? ,
because the female ghost help his hand firmly when he was about to run away. Is
it real that ghost can understand human words? She kept holding Uncle’s hand
firmly and stood up, causing him quickly to lose his head. She stretched out
her hands in order to strangle Uncle Loeunn to death, but he already died even
before she wanted to because he couldn’t stand the shock of meeting a ghost in
person. Uncle Loeunn’s death enabled the dead woman to be reborn. And now it
was Uncle Loeunn to take over from her. He had to take the life of anyone who
took that track because he needed to reborn. The new of Uncle Loeunn’s death on
the forbidden narrow track spread across the village, and the residents were
very frightened when they were aware that Uncle Loeunn was would have to kill
someone so he could he be reborn. As Uncle Loeunn was single, no one dared to
go and collect his body left on the track, which, Until now, might be decomposing.
Many months went by. and no one traveled on that track until one day. when a
group of men who used to have drinks with uncle Uncle Loeunn met again for a party. thinking that it was safe now as they saw nothing happening for months. But who on earth knew? That night, the haunting incident occurred not only on the narrow track, but also elsewhere. While those me were chatting, the sound "Thwack! Thwack!" apparently produced by a hard object hitting a big three was heard nearby. Really, there was as sound. No one then dared utter a word. What they could do was only to look at each other because at where the sound came from there stood a big, tall man staring at them in an unfriendly manner. "Why don't you all have my body cremated. you are heartless", thus was exactly the voice if Uncle Loeunn. "No! please don't do us any harm", all exclaimed and scrambled for their own way. However, they could hardly believe their eyes when they saw something which almost scared them out of their wits right in front of them: they unexpectedly found themselves on the narrow, death-prone track. Did that mean they went for the deadly path by themselves? "We ran eastward, didn't we?. Why are we in that bloody road?", Phat, one of them, was the first to break the silence. "Let's beat out retreat", shouted the three me. who scurried forward regardless of thorny plants and thousands of big rocks. Surprisingly, they spent quite a long while running, but they still found themselves at the same place. They tired to do what they could get out of the track, which was actually not too long to reach its end. They then stopped running and remained still, trembling with fear. wearing, they could not move their legs, and even though they wanted to make further attempts they couldn't because with red eyes and a wild look. He was frightening. The three men had no more time to think about all of these horrifying appearance because Uncle Loeunn slowly came over to them. Moment later, Uncle Loeunn vanished, and the three could heave a sigh of relief. But a few seconds later, their horror came back when they realized that Uncle Loeunn was now in front of them, just in spitting distance. Uncle's face was as white as paper, which suggested that he might be so terrified before he died. "One if you must die. There is no excuse. But if you want to survive you must fight and kill each other. And you decide among you who will be the only one to survive",said Uncle Loeunn. Immediatly after having heard what Uncle Loeunn said, Phat, Pronh and Thi started the fight. They no longer had to care who were their friend because now what they had to care the most was how to win is the fight and save their life. They were not afraid of killing their friends. This is the nature if humans who lose control of themselves because they care very much about their own interest. Now, one of the three men was stabbed with knife in the belly. and there were two left to decide either to survive. Phat and Pronh fought fiercely, with the former apparently gaining the upper hand as he was about to stab the latter as quickly as possible. suddenly. a voice was heard: "stop it!". It was the powerful magic master in the south if the village, and behind the magician were the magic master told the village. Phat and Pronh were helped out of the track area by the village, who were ready to destroy the track as told by the magic master. Uncle Loeunn laughed happily because he was able to be reborn after Thi took the turn to die after him here even though he was not the killer. "That's enough, Thi, from now on. Go abs get reborn. Stop being a spirit waiting to take people's lives here after Loeunn. Because there will be no end if thing continues to be like this. Look! The three of you, because of the lack of cooperation ans wisdom, you have killed each other. So bear in mind that giving up hatred and malevolence is the best thing to do ". After the magic master finished speaking, the villagers began burning sown ans digging up all over the track. This was the only way to destroy the track and to prevent it from being death prone. " I agree not to take Loeunn's turn to kill because my death was not because of him, but because of the lack of cooperation. Everyone only thought about finding ways of surviving, and this was my very killer". Thi's spirit then vanished afterward. Sine then, the narrow death-prone track has disappeared, but some expressions have remained forever in the villages' mind: the act of malevolence will continues forever if you have no intention to stop.. to give it up. Stopping or giving it up is the only solution. Also, you must not be so selfish and lack contemplation you must not do anything you can without fear with the only aim to save your life, which in the end will invite death upon you.
