Trick 43 "Night Fishing"

The dead fish is walking away with the rod, the shrimp on the hook go home early, and the night shade does not stay by the river, and all the wild ghosts come to cast.

I'm not a big fisherman, but I do occasionally hang out with a few colleagues with whom I have a good relationship. In recent years, there have been more and more people who seem to be obsessed with fishing, and I have many friends who love it, and they sometimes spend the night alone by the river. The level of obsession is simply incomprehensible to people who don't fish, and I asked a few friends who fish three times a day what makes them so obsessed, and the unified discourse is that they like the feeling of being hooked.

As the saying goes, everything is yin and yang, light is yang during the day, dark is yin at night, often haunts at night, and is by the river with a lot of yin, so you will naturally encounter a lot of strange and strange things. I often see a lot of encounters like this on the Internet, the kind that anglers take pictures with the main perspective of their mobile phones, which are really scary, there are floating corpses in the river, there are inexplicable cries, and ghosts squatting, etc., some of which are true and some are false.

I once went to play with two friends who were night fishing, and in order to experience the fun of night fishing, I encountered some strange things.

It was a Saturday night when two of my friends spotted a spot with few people and a lot of fish, on the edge of a wild pond in the suburbs, next to an elevated road. There are very few people who usually come to fish, and they only found it after driving around for an afternoon, and the car is parked under the elevated road, and then they walk a kilometer to get there.

It was already more than nine o'clock when they told me on WeChat, and I followed the navigation for 20 minutes to get to that place, which was really remote, and when I found them with great difficulty, they had been fishing for a while.

"This place you're looking for is really hard to find~"

I sighed as I sat down between them, and gave them two cigarettes and lit one myself.

"It's okay, I saw this point on the map, we went around here in the afternoon, and it feels okay."

The friend sitting on the right took the cigarette and whispered back to me, but the friend on the left did not speak, put the cigarette on his ear, and fixed his eyes on the swim bladder that glowed green on the water. After sitting down, I began to observe the surroundings, which was a large pond, probably in the shape of a crescent, because my friend chose this fishing spot at a sharp corner of the pond.

We sat on a slope by the river, with a high slope behind us and patches of tall grass on top, and then along the river there was a narrow path, a foot in length, with a few weeping willows standing here and there on the edge of the pond. It's almost ten o'clock, but the light from the street lamps on the elevated highway can still clearly illuminate our surroundings.

We chatted for a while, and after half an hour, there was not even a hole on the hook, and I couldn't stand being bitten by mosquitoes, so I stood up and moved my hands and feet to drive away mosquitoes. Fishing is the best way to hone patience, and they still repeat a series of actions such as reeling rods, hanging bait, and making nests.

I lit a cigarette, said hello to them, and walked along the river, trying to see if there were any other night fishing enthusiasts. Slowly, I had walked more than 500 meters away, and their figures disappeared from my sight.

It was getting darker and darker, and as I smoked a cigarette, I looked up and looked around, half of the water was black, and half of it was tall trees and grass. Just as I was about to turn around and walk back, I suddenly saw a vague figure sitting not far in front of me, and a green fish swim bladder lit up on the water in front of the figure.

"Huh? Why didn't I see it just now, maybe it was too dark to see clearly~"

When I saw that there was indeed someone, I muttered to myself without thinking much about it, and walked over, and within a few minutes, I was in front of the person.

It was a lean middle-aged man, wearing a black cap, a gray jacket, blue pants, and a pair of black cloth shoes on his feet. I said with a smile as I stepped forward to hand over the cigarette.

"Brother, is your mouth right tonight? How's the catch? ”

The man didn't speak, paused, then slowly raised his hand to take the cigarette I handed him, and then pointed to a bucket next to him. Through the sporadic light, I noticed that his hands were thin and long, like a few dry branches.

At this time, the sound of water fluttering in the bucket interrupted my train of thought, I didn't think much about it, squatted down, lay on the bucket and looked inside, only to see that there were about five or six fish in the bucket, the largest of which was seven or eight catties.

"Huh~ Brother, you have gained a lot! My two friends haven't made it tonight~"

I didn't look up, I opened my mouth and boasted, but after a while, he still didn't answer, and I saw enough, so I stood up.

"Brother, I'll go over and talk to them and let them come and see it, which shows that this river can still be shipped."

I looked at him and tried to wait for him to answer, but the man still didn't make a sound, but slowly raised his index finger to his mouth and made a "shhhhh When I saw that he was fascinated by fishing, I couldn't bother anymore, so I turned around and walked back.

I went back very fast, eager to tell my two friends about this discovery, so that they could move over here to fish. I hurried back to them, and saw that they were still struggling to hold on, and I could see that there was still nothing in their mouths.

"It's strange tonight, why don't you even have a mouth, and you can't make a nest with corn bait."

My friend on the right whispered a complaint, and I walked over to the bucket between them to look at it and continued.

"Well, it won't work here, I just saw that there was a big brother in front of me who was also fishing at night, and there were several big ones in the bucket, so let's move over and try it."

"Huh? It's not right~ In the afternoon, the two of us took a turn, there are too many aquatic plants over there, and there is no suitable place at all~"

My friend sitting on the left questioned, and I waved my hand and replied confidently.

"What I saw with my own eyes could be fake? I don't believe you've gone over and looked, it's a big brother with a hat. ”

My friend sitting to my right picked up my words.

"You come and watch the pole for me, I'll go and see, if not, let's move over and try."

I sat down in his seat as he grabbed his flashlight and walked forward. And in a short time he came back, and before the man had come to him, he spoke aloud.

"I'm going to ~ where is there someone in front, it's pitch black, there are too many aquatic plants over there, and there are more mosquitoes than here, and if you choose to fish there, you will be sucked to death by mosquitoes."

"Ah~ How is it possible, I also handed a cigarette to the big brother~ Didn't you close the pole and leave~"

I said as I got up to give him my seat, and he thought I was joking, shoved a flashlight into me, sat down, looked up at me and smiled.

"Damn~ You're still pretending, if you can't do it, you can go and see it again, there are ghosts."

The friend sitting on the left also said at this time.

"It's impossible, we looked at it in the afternoon, and we know that he can get in and out of this way, and he wants to go."

I also didn't believe in evil, and thought that the friend who had seen it in the past was joking with me, so I took a flashlight and walked quickly along the route I had just taken.

This time I walked very fast, and in a few minutes I walked 500 meters, I raised my flashlight and shone forward, and found that there was indeed no human figure, and the more I thought about it, the more I couldn't figure it out. The one we are holding is a strong flashlight, the brightness and intensity are very high, and when it is completely dark, a radius of fifty or sixty meters is like daylight.

I walked forward slowly in confusion, the strong flashlight in my hand searched for clues inch by inch, just now it was obviously a big brother who fished at night. How could this suddenly be gone、I thought as I searched forward, and walked another twenty or thirty meters。

Through the afterglow of the flashlight, an object on the slope of the river bank caught my eye, I shone the flashlight, and then my heart tightened, and I saw a lonely mound.

I stopped in place, didn't dare to go further, in the middle of the night three watches, in the wilderness encountered this is really a bit of a mad person, I used a flashlight aimlessly four times to shine again, suddenly, my back cold sweat came down, and then turned around and ran back.

When I ran up to them out of breath, I opened my mouth and said.

"Let's go, I can't stay here!"

They looked confused and asked.

"What's wrong? What the hell are you in? ”

I gasped for breath and quickly said what I had just seen.

"Just now I looked forward again and found a mound, damn ~ there is a cigarette on the mound..."

After that, I looked at them, and their faces changed, and when they saw that I was ugly, not like I was joking, they were ready to bow their heads and pack up their things. But at that moment, there was a sudden noise in the grass not far behind us, and the sound was like someone walking in the grass.

We were shocked at the same time, and then there were two man's coughs in the grass again, and now we were all hairy, so I picked up a flashlight and shone it on the grass, and they immediately began to pack up their fishing gear.

I asked aloud as I held my flashlight and looked at the grass where the movement was coming.

"Whoever is there, don't pretend to be a ghost!"

As soon as I finished speaking, my two friends had already packed their things and whispered.

"Let's go, stop the ink!"

After that, the three of us ran back to the elevated parking area with our things, and immediately started the car and left.

We drove all the way to the city, found a night market and stopped, after the fright, we felt tired and hungry, so we found a food stall with a large family to eat.

After we had eaten and drunk enough, we agreed to visit tomorrow during the day, because they were not willing to give up this newly developed fishing spot, and after we set a time to meet, we went home.

The next day, at about half past ten in the morning, the three of us went to the fishing spot again, and found the mound, and when we did see the cigarette in front of the grave, we gave up the place.

I really don't know if it's true or not, I don't know if it's a person doing something wrong or a ghost is teasing people, but after all, it's better to hide.
