It was already after 9 o'clock in the evening when I returned to the city, and I rushed to the meeting place - Jiulitun by taxi, and when I got out of the car, I saw Hu Yang dragging two travel bags on the side of the road and waving to me.

"How much do you have with you? It's so heavy, how did you get it? ”

Hu Yang's mouth full of stubble was gone, and the person looked very energetic, and he gently lifted the two large travel bags over his shoulders with his black gloved hand.

I think I still have a lot of strength, after all, after being a soldier for so many years, I can lift the weight of these two large travel bags, but it will never be so easy.

"Since I started growing scales, I was surprised to find that my strength has also become greater, and I can lift 150 pounds of things with one hand."

Hearing his explanation, I don't know whether to congratulate or comfort! This is beyond the scope of human physical ability, and it seems that if you do your best, you may have more power to discover.

A grass-green jeep drove over and stopped on the side of the road, and under the cab was a beautiful woman with short hair with ear-length ears, who looked like she was about 23 or 24, with thicker lips slightly upturned and looked very playful, very similar to a very famous actress I saw on TV later, as if she was called Shu Qi. She walked over and waved hello to us.

I looked at Hu Yang next to me in confusion. He smiled and introduced: "This is the Yang Junjun mentioned to you, she is a student of folklore, and she will help us a lot along the way." ”

"That's okay, I don't care, there's a beautiful woman on the road who looks very eye-catching, probably won't be so boring."

I shrugged, threw the bag on my back into the car, and climbed into the car first. Hu Yang and Yang Junjun looked at each other and smiled, and followed to the car.

After getting in the car, I sat down close to the window, and Hu Yang sat in the co-pilot while looking at the scenery outside the window as he flew by, and laughed with Yang Junjun, alas! Completely ignoring my feelings as a bachelor.

As the body moved, he fell asleep in a daze, and he didn't know how long it took before he woke up with sleepy eyes, the person holding the steering wheel had been replaced by Hu Yang, and Yang Junjun leaned on the co-pilot and fell asleep. I rolled down the window a little carefully, and the cool breeze that blew in made my head sober up a little.

When the addiction to smoking came, I couldn't help but touch my pants bag, just lit a cigarette, and stretched out a hand from the front to startle me, Hu Yang smiled in the rearview mirror and motioned for him to give him one.

Hand the cigarette he had just lit to him, light it again, and when he took out the cigarette case, a small piece of paper was taken out and fell on his lap, and when he picked it up, he saw that there was a row of words written on it:

"Danger! Watch your back! ”

As soon as the paper fell down, he immediately turned his head to look behind him, only two large and two small bags were quietly placed there, and there was not a single ghost.

Wipe the cold sweat, who put this piece of paper in my bag?

Hu Yang was concentrating on driving the car, Yang Junjun was sleeping soundly with his eyes closed, babbling vague words in his mouth, and it seemed that he was still dreaming.

There were only three of us in the car, and there could have been no fourth.

But what does this line mean? Watch your back? So someone is warning me that someone is staring at us from behind? So who is the prompter?

For a while, my head was already confused.

Looking at the slide in a daze, the safety warning light is like a long glowing snake, and I can even feel my eyes glazed.

A very bad premonition hangs in my heart, and this trip may not be so simple.

The next journey was boring and boring, the three of them took turns to drive after a long journey of two days and one night finally came to the city of Yixing, after a day of rest in the city, they set off to the south again, after getting off the highway, it was a long muddy mountain road, fortunately they went out to drive a jeep, otherwise they would turn off the car half of the road.

After two o'clock in the afternoon, I finally came to see a quiet mountain village on the mountainside, and when the car entered the village, a group of children immediately gathered around, and then an adult poked his head out to call his children back and close the door.

After this group of children were called away by their own adults one by one, the village suddenly quieted down, except for the occasional rooster crow, and the sound of people could not be heard quietly, which seemed extremely strange, if it wasn't for a group of children just now, I thought that the three of them drove into a deserted village.

Yang Junjun called us and pointed to the door of a dilapidated house not far ahead, where an old man sat on the stone at the door lazily basking in the sun with a dry cigarette in his mouth.

I whispered, "Are you sure this is it?" ”

"That's right, this is it, I was here last time, but it wasn't like this at the time, you can see villagers everywhere, and they are all very welcoming."

Hu Yang's puzzled eyes looked around, and it seemed that he was also confused.

"I'll go over and ask that uncle to find out what's going on, what's the use of just guessing here?" Yang Junjun glanced at me and Hu Yang, and walked towards the uncle.

I was ashamed, pulled Hu Yang's clothes and walked over with this big beauty. Yang Junjun walked over and squatted down to look at the old man very politely, and a sweet voice came out of that sexy lips.

"Uncle, let me tell you something, is this called Zhangjia Village?"

The old man didn't seem to hear what she said, he still sorted out the cigarette pouch and didn't raise it, Yang Junjun was not annoyed, and patiently asked again:

"Uncle, is there a place called Black Dragon Pond here?"

The old man's hand suddenly stopped, looked up at the three of us, and continued to arrange his pipe, the three of us had nothing to do and were about to go to the others to ask, just raised our feet and left, the old man's voice sounded behind him.

"You foreign babies like rare things, and they have only been here for a few days." The old man wrapped up in a cigarette, I took the opportunity to take out a lighter and lit it for him, he took a puff of cigarette, glanced at me and said: "You baby has eyes, I will warn you, you should not go to the pool, it is a bit evil." ”

Yang Junjun rolled his eyes, pretended to be well-behaved and sat on the stone opposite the old man, and said pitifully: "Uncle, we just like to hear these strange things, you can tell us about it." ”

The old man saw her pleading appearance, and looked at the longing expressions of the two big men, and sighed, "You city people are really good, I'll tell you." ”

The old man thought for a moment before he began to speak.

"This place is Zhangjia Village, that's right, the Black Dragon Pond you are talking about is the name of the outsiders, and the people here originally called the pool the black water pool, and there is nothing unusual, just an ordinary water pool.

I lived more than seventy years old, when I was young, I often bathed and herded cattle and sheep there did not happen strangely, that is, in recent months, I have always heard that someone lost cattle and sheep, thinking that they had come to steal the child, and took the animal away, and there was a descendant in the village who wanted to catch the thief, so he took his own cattle to the side of the pond, but in the evening the cow panicked and ran back to the cowshed, but the people did not come back, and the people in the family saw that something was wrong and shouted that more than a dozen people ran to the edge of the pond to see, and saw a shoe floating on the edge of the pool, and a few pieces of clothing, and there was blood floating on the edge of the water.

Dead people, this is not possible, want to call the police, but there is only one phone in the village, a few days ago it was broken and no one has come to repair, to go out of the village and have to wait for the small truck bought by the village to come back, everyone decided to pump water first to die to see the corpse into the soil for safety, so find the village chief to camel up a few pumps under the mountain, day and night pumping water, seeing that the water is going to be pumped out, the people around the pond exclaimed, only to see the water surface show a pair of sharp corners, and then go down to the bottom, When the thing revealed its true face, I saw a small, strangely shaped temple standing in the middle.

We rural people are more superstitious, for a while did not dare to go down to see the end, to a young man is not afraid, tied a rope to go down, inserted shallow water into the small temple, not long after a while, the young man ran out in fright, along the rope was pulled up by the group, his face was frightened pale, he fell ill, and shouted in a confused mouth that there were monsters.

As soon as everyone in the village heard that they had retreated, they all lifted the pumping machine and ran to the village, and the village began to rumor that there was a river demon in the temple under the pool, and the young man who died was probably eaten by the river demon. ”

After thanking the old man, back to the car, the three of us looked at each other, no one expected that there were still dead people in the pool, so the contents are probably not so easy to deal with, but fortunately, the water is dry, you can go and see it first.

After the three of them combined, Hu Yang picked up the travel bag, and Yang Junjun and I followed behind with a small bag on our backs, and walked up the mountain in the direction the old man said.

Along the way, the three of them didn't say anything, and they touched the note in their bags and were trying to tell Sù Hu Yang and them, when a cough suddenly came from behind.

Just as he was about to look back, Hu Yang grabbed me and Yang Junjun with his face forward, and whispered Don't look back, keep walking!

Walking through a section of intersection like a tree branch, there was a cough behind me, I hurriedly glanced at it with my afterglow, a black shadow looked at us lying on the tree pole, and suddenly my face changed greatly, only to feel that Hu Yang's hand was pinching me hard, only to see him shake his head, he whispered: "Don't look at each other, look at it with your afterglow, and it will be fine." ”

I wanted to ask him what it was, but seeing his stern expression, the words came to my lips and swallowed back.

Before I got to the edge of the pool, I encountered a strange thing, and sure enough, as I had a hunch, I walked through a section of woods and suddenly became open in front of me, and I saw a pool of water about twenty meters wide empty there, and there was a big rock standing next to it, and there was a forest around it, and the branches hung by the wind swayed from side to side, and there was a rattling sound between the leaves.

When the three of us stood on the edge of the dry pool, what caught our eyes was a small temple full of water and grass standing quietly at the bottom of the pool, and suddenly we heard Yang Junjun cover his mouth and exclaim in a low voice, pointing to the small temple and saying:

"What do you see that temple like?"
