"What are you afraid of, don't you all have swimming rings? Besides, those three dead boys, all of them are good at water! What are you afraid of? Song Dingning said indifferently.

At this time, Luo Bao came out of the water and walked ashore, "This water is not deep, you women can go down if you want, it's okay." After saying that, he sat down next to Xiao Shanzi, "How about it, do you dare to try it in the water?" ”

"I'm still watching from above, if something really happens, I can still go find someone!" Xiao Shanzi shook his head and said.

Luo Bao laughed, "Seeing that you are not very old, you are quite superstitious!" ”

Xiao Shanzi looked at the sea-like Gahu Lake in front of him, and said slowly: "Brother Luo Bao, you haven't been back for a few years, have you?" ”

Luo Bao was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Yes, I haven't had a chance to come back to see my grandmother since I entered high school, isn't it that I will come back as soon as the college entrance examination is over." ”

"Brother Luo Bao......" Xiao Shanzi was a little speechless and stopped.

"What's wrong? Don't tell me you've seen water monkeys! Luo Bao said jokingly.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Shanzi nodded and said: "I have seen it, many people have seen it in the past two years, but in the past two years, local people have not dared to come here." ”

"The first two years? What happened in the first two years? Luo Bao asked curiously.

"My grandfather won't let me go out to talk about this, but you're not an outsider, and I'm sure if you knew, you wouldn't come here to swim again." Xiao Shanzi said seriously.

When he said this, Luo Bao became even more curious, why didn't grandma tell him? So he said to Xiao Shanzi: "Tell me, I'll hear what scared people out of coming here to play!" ”

Xiao Shanzi looked at the deep water of Ga Lake from afar, and slowly talked about the incident two years ago......

The weather in August of that year was particularly hot, many children came to the Gahu Reservoir to play in the water to escape the heat, and there were four high school students from other places, who had just taken the college entrance examination, and heard that they were admitted to several good universities.

As soon as they came to the reservoir, they went into the water to swim, catch fish, and had a lot of fun, and then they came to play every day for a few days, and then Mrs. Chen, who came to see the reservoir, told them not to come tomorrow, because the next day is the Midyear Festival, and we locals will not go into the water on this day.

But they didn't listen, and they felt that Mrs. Chen was a little nosy, and there was an old saying at the time, "If you want to die, others can't stop you." ”

The four high school students really went again the next day, and that day Mrs. Chen was going to the grave to worship his ancestors, so he didn't appear in the reservoir, and a few people saw that Mrs. Chen was not in the reservoir, so they went into the water to swim regardless of it.

What happened after that, no one knew, and when Mrs. Chen came back the next morning, he saw that several people's clothes and shoes were still thrown on the shore, and he immediately understood in his heart that it must be a bad thing!

Mrs. Chen went back to the village and called the men of the whole village, and they searched in the reservoir for three days and three nights, and finally found a few people in a place at the bottom of the reservoir where there was some silt and aquatic weeds.

One of them had his feet entangled in the weeds, and he was so entangled, and the remaining three came to pull him, and the four of them remained in that position until they died.

Several people's parents cried in the dark when they came to identify the corpses, but it was too late, and people could not be resurrected after death, and they also blamed Mrs. Chen for not persuading them not to go into the water......

In the face of the accusations of several people's parents, Mrs. Chen didn't argue for anything, just bowed silently and left.

As a result, the next day, someone found Mrs. Chen's body on Ga Lake, some people said that he died because of guilt, but some people said that he was pulled by the unjust ghost in the water to be a stand-in!

In short, after Mrs. Chen's death, there was no longer anyone to guard the Gahu Reservoir, and the adults in the family did not allow their children to go there to play anymore.

But there are always one or two disobedient bear children who secretly go to play in the Gahu Reservoir, and in the end a few children have an accident, when a group of children go into the water to play together, and as a result, four children do not come home at night.

By the time the adults looked for them, the children's bodies were already floating on the water, and several village men went into the water to fish up the bodies, and found that they all had small green handprints on their feet, like five or six-year-old children.

Later, I heard the old people in the village say that it was the water monkey who came to pull people!

No one has ever seen what this water monkey is and what it looks like, but I heard the old people say that it is the result of people who died unjustly in the water, and they have been lurking underwater for many years waiting for the opportunity, and then pulling people to the bottom of the water to drown them and become their own stand-ins.

Since then, it has become a forbidden place for locals, and adults have taught their children harshly, saying that if you dare to go, you will break your legs!

The reason why Xiao Shanzi said that he had seen water monkeys was because once he didn't listen to the adults and secretly went to the Ga Lake to catch fish, and he was also afraid that there would be water monkeys pulling him as a stand-in when he went into the water, so he took a hemp rope from home, tied one end to his waist, and tied the other end to a tree not far from the shore.

When he first got out of the water, he felt that the bottom of the water was very clear and the visibility was good, but as he swam, he noticed that the water was slowly starting to get muddy! He was scared and wanted to turn around and swim back, when suddenly, he felt a tingling sensation in his left foot, and then his entire leg lost sensation.

But fortunately, there was the hemp rope he had tied around his waist before, and he used all his strength to grab the hemp rope and swim to the shore, just as he was about to go ashore, he couldn't help but look back, only to see a pair of bloodshot eyes in the dense aquatic plants, it was staring at the little mountain viciously, like a duck in his hand flew angry.

Xiao Shanzi climbed ashore and gasped for breath, but those eyes slowly swam towards the shore as if they were not giving up, and Xiao Shanzi, who was afraid of death, picked up a stone on the ground and smashed it into the eyes in the water.

Hearing a pop, the eyes sank into the water, but Xiao Shanzi knew that it hadn't gone far, so he kept throwing stones into the water! Until he was exhausted from smashing.

Xiao Shanzi never mentioned this incident to others because he was afraid of going home and being beaten, and after this incident, he never came to play in Gahu Lake again! Today he saw Luo Bao and a few of them come here to play, so he really didn't feel at ease so he came along.

After Luo Bao listened to what Xiao Shanzi said, his heart was tight, it seems that this Gahu Reservoir is no longer the reservoir that he used to play in when he was young.

Just when the two of them were talking, among the several people in the reservoir, Li Wentao was the most watery, and then he suddenly felt a chill under his feet, and he plunged down to take a look, ho! A fat, large black fish swam past the feet of several of them......

Li Wentao immediately shouted excitedly, "Does anyone want to eat grilled fish at night!" (To be continued.) )
