Volume 1 Career Stories Chapter 3 My Memories (3)

Many times, it is often the people who say they don't believe that they are actually the most taboo. For example, I am such a person, I often say in front of people that I don't need to care about these things, but in private I am extremely taboo about some things. For example, when I write an article, I will subconsciously look at the number of words I write, and if the mantissa is "4", I will deliberately add or subtract a word. I still remember that when I finished writing a chapter of the story, I saw that the word count was actually "1444", and I immediately checked the article again and added a few more words. I remember that I had saved the entire article, but when I opened the document the next day, I was surprised to find that the word count at the bottom was "1444" before the change...... And the weirdest thing is that in the next chapters, only the word count I stopped in every other chapter was "1444". Maybe that's the case in the dark, if you don't like anything, it'll be brought to you. This is the most hated thing of fate, it is out of your control, and sometimes it will do things that make you uncomfortable against your will.

Far away...... To be honest, there are quite a few people who died in the mountain pond. Every summer, the school always sends us a notice that needs to be signed by the parents. The content in it is all about the coming of summer, and I hope that parents will take care of their children and do not let them go to any mountain pond and reservoir to swim. Anyway, I don't think anyone has seen this thing.

And in fact, every year at school we can hear which class of people go swimming and drown and can't be saved. Legend has it that a person who has been drowned cannot be reincarnated, and will become a water ghost trapped in the place of drowning forever. The legend of the water ghost has been around since ancient times, and there is also a slang term called "water ghost ascending to the city god" to describe those who ascend to the sky in one step. Water ghosts can't extricate themselves unless they can find a substitute, and sometimes I wonder if the people who drown in the pond every year are all substitutes for the dead ghosts. It's really incomprehensible.

I've grown so big, I've lived in the village for so long, and I haven't heard any legends of water ghosts from anyone. I know that there has been an accident in Shantang, but they are mainly students, and there are no women.

At this time, my friend said, "Do you know that there is a fool in the village?" It is said that he ran up the hill in the middle of the night only to see a woman's figure in the middle of the pond with her back to him, and then he was stupid. ”

I was extremely impressed by this endless story, and later I felt that there were too many loopholes in it. Especially who will go up the mountain in the middle of the night. It wasn't until later that I had a vague memory in my mind, when I actually walked alone in the middle of the night to the path up the mountain, and then met an unexpected person in the lychee forest there, she was my friend's aunt. I don't have any more memories left. I just remember that she looked at me at that time, and her expression was extremely indifferent.

Looking back, I suddenly felt a cold sweat on my back. Because I can't remember when I experienced this, and I can't remember why I ran up without sleeping in the middle of the night. I'm not even sure it's me.

These are strange experiences that I had before junior high school, either by myself or from others. I didn't dig into any of these things, at least not to prove that my friend was really going to run up to the mountains in the middle of the night. Of course, that memory was an exception. I don't ask people what's going on. I don't dare.

Later, I went to work. The school I attended was located in the middle of nowhere, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was in the mountains. The new teaching building is fine, but the old teaching building is completely built in the mountains, and there are naturally some unknown things in it. But there's not much to tell about the school story, and I don't know much about it, so I'm going to talk about something even more bizarre.
