Volume 1 Mischief at Work Chapter 3 My Memories (3)
Many times, people who say they don't believe it 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 would subconsciously look at the number of words I wrote. If the ending number was "4", I would deliberately add or subtract one word. I still remember that after I finished writing a chapter of the story, I saw that the number of words was actually "1444", and I immediately felt guilty.
I checked the article and added a few more words.
I clearly remembered that I had saved the entire article, but what was surprising was that when I opened the document the next day, I was surprised to find that the number of words at the bottom was actually "1444" before modification... And the most bizarre thing is that the following words
Chapters, only every other chapter I stop
The number of words that come are all "1444". Maybe it's like this, you don't like anything, but it will be given to you. This is the most annoying thing about fate, it is not under your control, and sometimes
They will go against your will and do things that make you uncomfortable.
I'm going too far... To be honest, a lot of people have died in Shantang. Every summer, the school always sends us a notice that requires parents to sign. The content in it is about summer is approaching, I hope all parents
Take good care of your children and don't let them go swimming in any Shantang Reservoir. Anyway, I don't think anyone has seen this thing.
In fact, every year at school we hear that a person in a class drowned while swimming and could not be saved. It is said that a drowned person cannot be reincarnated and will become a water ghost and be trapped in the place where he drowned forever.
The legend of water ghosts has existed since ancient times, and there is also a slang term called "
"Water ghost rises to the city god" to describe those who reach the sky in one step. Water ghosts cannot escape on their own unless they can find a substitute. Sometimes I wonder, in this case, is there a wave of people who drown in mountain ponds every year?
Another wave of scapegoats. This really has no solution.
I have grown up and lived in the village for so long, but I have never heard the legend of water ghosts from anyone. I know that there have been incidents in Shantang, but they were mostly students and there were no women.
At this time, the friend said again: "Do you know there is a fool in the village? It is said that he ran up the mountain in the middle of the night and saw a woman's figure in the middle of the pond with her back to him, and then he was frightened."
I was extremely impressed by this story that had no beginning and no end. Later I realized that there were too many loopholes in it. Especially who would go up the mountain in the middle of the night. Until later, I actually had a vague memory in my mind. At that time, I was actually alone in the middle of the night.
I walked to the path up the mountain, and then I met an unexpected person in the lychee forest there. She was my friend's aunt. I have no more memories. I only remember that she glanced at me with an extremely cold expression.
Recalling it again, I suddenly felt a cold sweat on my back. Because I couldn’t remember exactly when I experienced this incident, let alone why I was so brain-stricken that I didn’t sleep in the middle of the night and ran up there. I wasn’t even sure.
Is it you who goes up?
These are all strange experiences I had before junior high school, either by myself or heard from others. I basically didn’t delve into these things, at least I wouldn’t run up into the mountains in the middle of the night to prove whether what my friend said was true. Of course.
That memory is an exception. I won't ask others what happened. I don't dare either.
Later, I went to a vocational high school. The location of the school I went to was very remote. It would be an exaggeration to say it was in the mountains. The new teaching building was nice, but the old teaching building was built entirely in the mountains. Naturally, there were some inconveniences there.
Things that people know. But there is nothing to tell about the story in the school, and I don’t know much about it. What I’m going to talk about next is another even more bizarre thing.
