Chapter 64: Water Ghosts

Zhou Shan laughed when he saw his wife's expression, "If there is really a water ghost, I will arrest him and see what he looks like," After saying this, Zhou Shan's right arm grabbed on the water surface and made a movement similar to catching a water ghost.

Madame was also amused by this action, in fact, she also knew in her heart that the legend was probably used by the old people in the village to scare children, and she was already a high school student, so she shouldn't believe in this bizarre story. It's just that when faced with this dam, there is still a natural fear in my heart.

Zhou Shan put the bamboo row into the water, and then fixed it with the bamboo pole in his hand, and took the lead to the front of the bamboo row. "Come on, I won't let you fall into the water," Zhou Shan turned around and smiled at his wife.

Mrs. walked to the edge of the dam in hesitation, and then stepped on it lightly with one foot, and the bamboo raft immediately swayed from side to side, Zhou Shan inserted the bamboo pole in the gap between the two bamboos, and the shaking bamboo row quickly stabilized again, and Mrs. boldly stood up with her body.

This is the first time in my wife's life to ride a bamboo raft, because this dam is the only place in the village that can support a bamboo raft, so everything today is a special experience for my wife.

Zhou Shan saw that his wife had already stood firm, and his two feet secretly worked hard, trying to grasp the left and right balance of the bamboo raft, and then he pulled out the bamboo pole and pushed the bamboo raft into the depths of the dam one by one.

Seeing the ripples drawn on both sides of the bamboo raft and the scenery slowly receding from the shore, Mrs. felt that everything around her was so quiet and beautiful, and she could only hear the sound of water pulling up and down the bamboo poles, and only the wider and stronger back of Zhou Mountain in front of her.

The soles of her shoes were wet by the river, because the water would splash up through the gaps in the bamboo rafts, but not enough to soak the uppers, so she could watch the water flow under her feet and the calm water in the sun.

"Look, there's something over there," Zhou Shan stopped the bamboo pole in his hand as he reached the center of the dam, and pointed his arm to their right.

Madame looked in the direction pointed by Zhou Shan and found that the water surface over there was also calm and traceless, and there was nothing special at all. Madame wanted to ask Zhou Shan what he saw, but suddenly there was a loud bang in front of her, and Zhou Shan actually fell into the dam from a standing state.

This scene couldn't help but make Mrs. frightened, she didn't understand the water nature at all, so she could only hold on to the shaking bamboo row and keep shouting at the water, "Brother, brother, where are you...?"

Madame's shout was still echoed, and just a few meters away from the bamboo raft, several blisters gurgled up, and then Zhou Shan's face was difficult to expose on the water.

"Brother, swim over quickly, I'm here," Madame wanted to help Zhou Shan point out the direction through her own voice, she knew that Zhou Shan could swim, just a few meters away, as long as she fluttered a few times, she could get back on the bamboo raft.

Zhou Shan, who fell into the water, also tried to stroke his arm, but his body hadn't moved much, and his whole body had a tendency to sink to the bottom of the water, Zhou Shan had a panicked expression on his face, his hands were constantly struggling on the water, and at the same time he shouted to his wife, "No, I can't swim, I feel something, dragging my feet!"

Because of Zhou Shan's words, Madame's face turned white with fright, something was dragging his feet in the water, wasn't it the water ghost in the mouth of the elders? She never thought that the legend would prove to her that the water ghost was true in this way. Seeing that Zhou Shan's head was about to sink to the bottom again, Madame had no time to think more, she must not watch her brother drown in front of her like this.

Mrs. grabbed the bamboo pole placed on the bamboo raft, and then quickly moved her body to the front of the bamboo raft, and handed the bamboo pole to the direction of the water surface Zhou Shan, "Brother, grab the bamboo pole quickly, I'll pull you up!"

I don't know if it's because Zhou Shan can't distinguish the direction clearly, or can't hear the outside world clearly, Mrs. found that even if the bamboo pole he handed over was close to Zhou Shan's arm, he grabbed it a few times in the struggle but didn't catch it once, and then his whole body sank quickly, and even his arm disappeared on the water.

"Brother!" Madame felt like the sky was falling, the bamboo poles fell from her hands, and tears flowed out of her eyes at once. At this moment, she no longer has the slightest fear of the water ghost in her heart, but is full of hatred, and regrets even more that she doesn't understand the water nature, otherwise she would have to save her brother from the water ghost no matter what.

Madame sat alone on the bamboo raft and cried sadly, the ripples had dissipated on the water surface where Zhou Shan had disappeared in front of her, and everything had returned to the calm of a minute ago, as if nothing had happened, but Madame had lost one of her closest companions.

She didn't think that she didn't understand water, and she didn't know how to support the bamboo row, how to go home next, and she didn't think about whether the next target of the water ghost would be herself, Mrs. All her emotions were filled with sadness at this time, and she couldn't imagine how heartbroken Zhou Shan's mother would be after learning the news.

At this moment, Mrs. found that there were several small blisters next to the bamboo raft, and a black shadow came out of the blister, Mrs. stopped crying and subconsciously clenched her fists, she was about to hit the water ghost, and at the moment when the black shadow surfaced, Mrs. suddenly found that it was a familiar smiling face, Zhou Shan.

"Haha, haha," Zhou Shan wiped a handful of water droplets from his face, and a hearty laugh came out of his mouth, "I'm scared, you still believe that there are water ghosts here." ”

Madame was angry and happy, and hit Zhou Shan's arm hard with a fist, and said stiffly, "Hmph! If only there was a water ghost dragging you away!"

After the prank, Zhou Shan's clothes were soaked, he took off his shirt, revealing his upper body with muscular lines, and then picked up the bamboo pole from the water again, laughing all the way to a place covered by a bamboo forest.

"Brother, isn't there no road ahead?" asked the lady suspiciously, because she found that the front of the bamboo raft was blocked by green bamboos hanging down on both sides, and it looked like it had reached the end.

Zhou Shan had a smug smile on his face, "So I said that this place is very mysterious, we are going to pass under the bamboo now, you cover your face with my clothes, so as not to be scratched by the bamboo leaves," Zhou Shan handed his shirt to his wife's hand.

Mrs. saw that the gap left under the bamboo leaves was only half a meter high, and after Zhou Shan in front of her supported the bamboo row hard, she quickly squatted down from the standing state, and she herself quickly covered the top of her head with her clothes, if her face was scratched, it would be broken.

Under the cover of her clothes, Madame felt that she was entering a special space, but she could see nothing but the running water below, and occasionally she could feel some branches and leaves passing over her head. After about half a minute, Mrs. heard Zhou Shan's voice, "You can take your clothes away!"
