readx; Among the strange things I heard in elementary school, in addition to the three forbidden places in elementary school, the second place should be a strange abandoned small pond not far from the elementary school, this small pond is strange because of its terrifying legend. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The small pond is located in a wasteland with no one living around. I don't know what age it was dug out, the pond is not big, it is equal to the size of a house of 100 square meters, there are a lot of unknown old trees in it, and other decaying unknown animal and plant remains, it looks like a swamp, and next to the pond is a large wasteland with small grass, which is very suitable for children to play games, so when I was a child, I always like to go out ten minutes in advance when I go to school in the afternoon, and go to the wasteland near the small pond to play for a while (fortunately, the school afternoon class is 2 o'clock, when the sun is fierce, Of course, I won't go there when it's raining or when it's bad! )。

And every time the family knows about it, they are scolded, saying that there are monsters in the small pond, and they will pull people and animals down and eat them. But the child is happy, and has been there so many times, in addition to not feeling very comfortable, I don't feel anything strange about the small pond, not to mention that the place where we play is only the barren grassland around the small pond, and not to the edge of the pond, where will take the words of the parents to heart. After listening to the lesson, forget it, the play is still playing, until the winter of the fifth grade, after a strange incident・・・・・・

It was the first semester of the fifth grade, a cold and wet winter (the southern winter is a magical attack!). As usual, a few of us went out ten minutes early to play near the small pond, the sky was not particularly good, it was the kind of cloudy day peculiar to southern winter, there was not much sunshine, but it was not the kind with dark clouds. Of course, for children, it will not be taken to heart, a big white dog of Xiaojian's family who had an accident, that dog is a dog that Xiaojian's family has raised for a long time, and his name is Xiaobai (no way, change the name in the countryside, it's so arbitrary!) The temperament is very gentle, will protect the Lord, usually we go to Xiaojian's house, Xiaobai will be closer to us. And when Xiaojian goes to school, it will also send Xiaojian for a distance to ensure Xiaojian's safety. But that day, I don't know why, after sending Xiao Jian off the journey he usually went to school, Xiao Bai still didn't go back, just followed Xiao Jian silently in the back, until he walked to the vicinity of the small pond, watching us play, and he didn't have his usual enthusiasm, just squatting.

After a few minutes, Xiaobai suddenly became alert, ran to the edge of the small pond, whined, and trembled. I thought it was strange, but I didn't know too much about it at the time, so I didn't think too much about it and continued to play. When it was almost over, when it was time to go to school, someone found that Xiaobai was gone. After barking at the small pond just now, it disappeared, Xiao Jian barked for a long time, but there was no response, and such a large piece of wasteland nearby, at a glance, except for the small pond, there was a large flat land, and there was no big white dog to hide. When something like this happened, Xiaojian was the one he was most worried about, but because he was in a hurry to go to school, he could only force himself to think that Xiaobai might go home by himself. As a result, on Saturday the next day, we learned from Xiaojian that Xiaobai had never gone back at all, so he disappeared silently, and when we returned to the vicinity of the small pond, we found that there were several dog footprints left by black silt next to the small pond, and a big jump estimated to have a thick black ribbon of silt on an adult's arm. After seeing this, we didn't dare to stay, so we went home directly and told our family about Xiaojian's disappearance, but the family heard a stern warning that they were not allowed to play near the small pond in the future. On the third Sunday, when the friends got together again, they learned that after Xiaojian told his family about the incident yesterday, he was beaten and warned that Xiaojian was not allowed to play near the small pond again! But after encountering such a strange thing, everyone didn't dare to play near the small pond anymore!

Later, we learned from Xiaojian's grandfather that the legend of the small pond eating people and animals was based on it, it is said that half a century ago, there were several children where to play, and one of them ran to the side of the small pond to play, and in front of the other children was pulled into the pond by something sticking out of the pond, and the other children were frightened at that time, called the adults in the house, and drained the water in the pond, but nothing was found, only some unknown animal and plant remains. It was also from that time that the small pond began to be uncared for, and it slowly turned into a wasteland! Until now, Xiaobai is still missing, and the small pond and the vacant land next to it have been filled in and turned into a factory with the development of the times. And what was in the little pond is still a mystery to this day!
