Chapter 5 water ghost

In the summer vacation of the first year of college, after attending the wedding of the Kingdom, we hurriedly went to Penghu to play for a few days under the leadership of Ha Bang. The first time I took a plane, I felt very exciting and thrilling, because the captain was Ha Bang Dad's friend, so during the departure from Taichung Shuinan Airport to Penghu Magong, Ha Bang flew the plane. Those who went that time included Ha Bang, Wang Guo, Yang Dingfeng, Xie Jiayun, Liao Guojun, Du Chong, and me. The title of this story happened on the first day we just arrived in Penghu, when we drove to Jibei Island by boat.

"Excuse me, when does the snorkeling boat leave?" I asked a boatman who was dozing off at the pier. "Young people! It's dusk, the tide is coming! I'll take you there tomorrow morning!" The boatman happily handed over his business card and asked about the hotel we stayed at. I also know that dusk is not suitable for snorkeling at all, but the problem is Ha Bang.Ha Bang is going to go snorkeling immediately, and no one can interrupt his excitement. "I can't help it! We must go snorkeling, and I won't give you a dime!" I smiled. "It can't be done! It's dangerous! Who dares to be responsible if something goes wrong! If you come to me tomorrow, I'll make it cheaper for you, haha!" The boatman laughed loudly, and then passed out.

Ha Bang threw away the wooden stick in his hand, pointed to the boat tied by the boatman on the shore and said, "Let's go, summer waits for no one." Undoubtedly, after seeing the boatman lying on the beach and sleeping soundly, everyone quickly boarded the boat.No one wants to die on this small island. The boat was full of dangers under the driving of Ha Bang, and we headed aimlessly towards the sunset in the tumbling waves, until Ha Bang was satisfied, and we stopped in the sea where no one looked around. "Where is this place?" Everyone wants to ask this question, but no one wants to be thrown into the sea.

Wang Guo was weak, and just as the boat stopped, he grabbed the railing and vomited violently. Xie Jiayun also squatted next to Yang Dingfeng, rubbing her stomach, frowning. "Let's go snorkeling." Ha Bang smiled and threw the life jacket and goggles to everyone. Ha Bang still has a conscience, I thought we were going to jump into the water naked. But the wind and waves are really big. Although the endless sea is rippling under the watchful eyes of the setting sun, it will be night soon. Everyone, except Ha Bang, knows that it is best not to go into the water now. "It's a bit cold." I smiled wryly and had already changed my clothes.

Yang Dingfeng took his girlfriend Xie Jiayun and jumped into the water first, and slowly adapted to the water near the boat, while Wang Guo and I swam around Ha Bang. Belly Chong and Liao Guojun had better water skills, and the two of them went deep when they entered the water I dived, and I took a frog mirror to observe the bottom of the water, but the sky started to turn dark, so the underwater vision was not good. I only saw a few dry, thin, black fish swimming by unwillingly, beautiful tropical fish Didn't see anything. "It seems that there are no fish!" Liao Guojun surfaced and reported the bottom situation to Ha Bang.

Liao Guojun is of mixed race, his father is African-American, and his mother is Taiwanese, so his skin is dark and thick, and he is tall.He later met Ha Bang at the same university. It is said that not long after the first year of freshman year, Ha Bang took the big lock of the motorcycle and sent his ex-girlfriend who kept harassing Liao Guojun to the hospital, so Liao Guojun has always obeyed Ha Bang. "There really aren't any fish!" Belly worms also surfaced. Stomach worm is very fat, he is Liao Guojun's best friend since junior high school, he has very powerful supernatural powers, that is, he defecates indifferently in class, and when everyone is talking about it, he can raise his hand to speak without changing his face, Discuss with classmates with ugly faces, and even refuse to go to the toilet to wash their pants after class, and just hang on until Ha Bang goes crazy and beats him up.

But now, when Ha Bang heard that there were no fish, his expression became ugly. "It doesn't matter if there are no fish, it's fun to swim around!" Wang Guo laughed and spat the dirt into the sea vigorously. "It's not fun." Ha Bang said. It's dead now. "Get in the boat," said Ha Bang, and everyone climbed into the boat, wondering what the hell Ha Bang was going to do again. Ha Bang didn't say much, took out the snacks and soft drinks on the boat, and everyone sat on the deck and ate dinner in the gradually cooling weather. "Let's play a game." Ha Bang mused.

"What game?" Wang Guo said holding the blanket. "Water ghost," said Ha Bang cheerfully. Fishing for water ghosts?This game sounds spooky! Xie Jiayun hugged Yang Dingfeng in fear, and Yang Dingfeng patted Xie Jiayun's back comfortingly. Liao Guojun, who is excellent in water, said happily, "Fishing water ghosts? How do you catch water ghosts?" "Use people to fish." Ha Bang said with interest, and a gust of wind suddenly blew up on the boat. "This is interesting!" Liao Guojun clapped his hands and shouted, ignoring the gloom on the faces of the others.

"How... how to fish?" I said blankly. "Lucky roulette," Ha Bang said quickly. I knew it was lucky roulette!When is it not with the lucky roulette? "After deciding on the person, how do we play!" Liao Guojun, a brainless idiot, said excitedly. "We tie a person with a rope and throw him into the sea as bait. When the water ghost sees it, it will swim to catch him. Then when we pull that person up, we can catch the water ghost." Ha Bang After briefly speaking, a gust of chilly wind blew through my hairline again. "But, are there really water ghosts in this world?" Wang Guo patted his head and said stupidly, he still didn't understand the situation.The point is not whether there are water ghosts to catch, the point is that this dangerous game must be played, and the bait people are very poor.

"Yes." Liao Guojun said categorically: "A good friend of the swimming team in our middle school was dragged into the vortex in the river by water ghosts. Later, after we worked together to rescue him ashore, he swore that he just had a hand that was very special. Grab his feet so hard that he can't resist at all." "Fake it?" I sneered. "Really." Belly Chong echoed with a serious expression: "I was also there at the time, and there were five dark black scratches on his shins, which were really terrifying. The terrified grandma also said that there was a water ghost following behind him, haunting him to death!"

Oh my God!I almost peed my pants when I heard that. "Boss... I think it's better to play something else..." Yang Dingfeng couldn't help but said, such a bold statement has seriously violated his personality, which shows that Yang Dingfeng is really scared. "Okay!" Ha Bang said cheerfully. There was almost no cheering at the scene. "Then let's play a big treasure hunt." With a gloomy face, Ha Bang took out six one-dollar coins and said, "I will throw the six-dollar coins into the sea, and whoever finds them can come up. The time limit is half an hour, and after half an hour I'll drive the boat away, and you swim ashore by yourself." "Okay!" Yang Dingfeng answered more bluntly, which surprised me. This scavenger hunt is suicide!At least there is still a way to survive playing water ghost fishing, just to attend the funeral of that bait, why are you looking for coins that you can't find in the sea?Even Liao Guojun, who is excellent in water skills, showed a shocked face. Ha Bang nodded, picked up the coin happily, and wrote on the coin with a marker pen that came out of nowhere. Yang Dingfeng looked at it, and his face that was originally full of confidence suddenly darkened. "Boss, I think water ghost fishing is more exciting and interesting, and suddenly I want to play again!" Yang Dingfeng clapped his hands and shouted.Damn it, it turns out that this kid's plan just now was to sneak into the sea, and then use his own one-yuan coin to deceive the boss! "Are you going to play water ghost fishing or treasure hunting?" Ha Bang said impatiently. "Water fishing ghost!" Everyone shouted in unison. Yes, we're going to catch water ghosts. Ha Bang stood up, and everyone waited tremblingly for the wheel of fortune to spin. "Luck...luck...lucky...lucky...who...lucky...lucky..." Ha Bang's fingers drew circles in the air, following the words in his mouth, fingers on everyone's head Flicking across the sky, I silently pray that the lucky finger doesn't rest on my head. In fact, everyone knows that the lucky roulette is simply Ha Bang's personal will, and has nothing to do with where the last word should stop. Finally, Ha Bang's finger landed on the top of Belly Chong's head, and before Belly Chong passed out, the others all jumped up happily: "It's a water ghost!" So everyone happily tied the hemp rope firmly to the almost fainted belly worm, and was in a hurry. Everyone was very happy that the bait to be thrown into the sea was not their own, but seeing that the belly worm got along with everyone except messy stools For the sake of good fortune, the knot tied to him is very strong. "Boss...if I can't catch the water ghost...then...what should I do?" Belly Chong almost cried. "I'll definitely catch it." Ha Bang smiled: "If you can't catch other water ghosts, when you hang up and pull you into the boat, it will be regarded as catching a water ghost." Wang Guo laughed when he heard this, and Liao Guojun comforted the ashen-faced stomach bug, saying, "Boss is just joking, I will jump down to save you when you are about to die." "Then you can go down instead of me?" Belly Chong cried. "No." Liao Guojun smiled. "Boss! How long do I have to go down?" Stomach Chong squeezed out a smiling face. "Until you catch the water ghost." Ha Bang said seriously, took out a small knife and put it in the belly worm's hand, and said, "When you see the water ghost, don't let him escape!" So, we threw the belly worm into the sea vigorously, and when Ha Bang urged the belly worm to swim farther to catch water ghosts, Wang Guo and I started discussing how to pack the ceremony. "My mother said that it is enough for a friend with ordinary feelings to pay one thousand and one." Wang Guo said that his mother is an authority on spirituality. "But it can be said that the belly bug died before our eyes, so we should pay more?" I said, although I didn't want to pay so much money. "Why don't we all make one together?" Yang Dingfeng interjected. "Okay." Liao Guojun agreed. Now the stomach bug is dead. The setting sun soon disappeared, and a black wind blew up on the sea, and the stomach bug was just thrown into the sea for ten minutes, and it was whining there, really not like a boy. "Help! I'm so cold!" Belly Chong screamed strangely, and I shone a flashlight on his face, which was really pale. "It's normal to be cold, it's always like this when ghosts appear." Wang Guo said quietly while sitting on the deck. "There's something hot on my ass! It's a water ghost! Pull me up!" screamed Belly Worm. "That's your poop!" I yelled. For the next half an hour, our group played cards on the small boat to pass the time of fishing for water ghosts. Only then did I realize how boring fishing is, especially night fishing. It's really boring to cry all the time. "Damn it, there's been no movement after fishing for so long." Ha Bang complained, hoping that he would feel bored quickly, and then everyone would go back to the hotel and have a good sleep after pulling up the stomach bug. "I don't know if the stomach bug is a good bait? Otherwise, how could I not catch the water ghost?" Ha Bang said to himself, and my spine suddenly felt cold. "Belly worms are the stuff I've seen suitable for water ghost fishing, trust me." Yang Dingfeng said swearingly. "Why don't you do this? Since you are a water ghost, let's draw the ghost cards to decide!" Ha Bang suddenly put away the cards in everyone's hands, put the two ghost cards in, shuffled the cards, and put fifty-four cards in the pool. In front of everyone. "Draw one by one, and whoever draws a ghost card will go down and use it as bait." Ha Bang seemed very satisfied with his thoughts. "But the boss... There are two ghost cards!" Xie Jiayun's eyes were flushed. "It's faster to catch two baits, and it costs more to catch two." Ha Bang smiled, and I spit it out immediately. "Oh my god! Who can sell the water ghost to when caught!" Wang Guo was puzzled. "Sell it to your mother." Ha Bang said happily. Yes, Wang Guo's mother will definitely buy the water ghost at a high price. So, everyone was crying and drawing cards, and as brave as I was, I couldn't help but wet my pants. "Wahhahahahaha!" Liao Guojun turned over the card, it was the eight of hearts, and roared happily. "I knew it wasn't me! King of Spades!" Yang Dingfeng flipped the cards over and patted the deck excitedly. "Everyone! The seven plum blossoms!" Wang Guo laughed vigorously. "It's dangerous! Hahahahaha!" I laughed and rolled on the ground holding the three plum blossoms. "Thank God!" Xie Jiayun stuck out her tongue and wiped her tears with a smile. etc. "Draw the cards for me." Ha Bang stared at Xie Jiayun. Xie Jiayun's face can only be described as haggard and ashes.After she glanced at the card, she smiled and wiped her tears without opening the card at all. "Draw the cards for me." Ha Bang's eyes pierced into Xie Jiayun's heart sharply. Xie Jiayun burst into tears and knelt down in front of Ha Bang with a complete mental breakdown. "Tie it up." Ha Bang said coldly as he lifted the ghost card tightly held in Xie Jiayun's hand. Yang Dingfeng showed a distorted expression. He didn't know whether to go into the water instead of Xie Jiayun, or to comfort Xie Jiayun. In fact, early reincarnation also has the benefits of early reincarnation. Wang Guo shook his head and sighed, but began to look for another rope. The stomach bug submerged in the water has been listening attentively to our decision. He couldn't believe his good luck and shouted: "Xie Jiayun, come down for me! You think girls are amazing! Hahahahahaha! Hahahahaha!" "Boss! Please don't throw me down!" Xie Jiayun cried and rolled on the ground. "Be brave, don't let the water ghost run away when you see the water ghost." Ha Bang held a noodle stick in Xie Jiayun's hand, and Xie Jiayun was about to foam at the mouth. Just as Xie Jiayun was about to be tied up by Wuhuada, Belly Chong suddenly yelled like a pig: "Water ghost!" "Did you really catch a water ghost?" Liao Guojun's eyes were shining brightly, and he quickly pulled the thick rope tied to Belly Chong's body. Ha Bang also showed a rare excited expression, eager to direct us from the sidelines. "Quick! I'm about to be pulled down! Wow!" Belly Chong sank into the water, struggling with both hands out of the water, as if a water ghost really grabbed him. "It's not acting, is it?" I yelled, although I was still very excited in my heart, I pulled hard with my hand. "How is it possible! He is such a pooping pig that he wants me to go down and replace him!" Xie Jiayun roared, pulling hard on the thick rope, she hoped to catch the water ghost more than anyone else. The rope is tied to the bulky stomach bug, but it is really much heavier than imagined. Maybe it really caught a water ghost?I couldn't help but shiver. "It's exaggerated enough." Wang Guo couldn't believe it, and his hands were shaking. Belly Chong's face suddenly came out of the water, and he exclaimed palely, "Help! Water ghost... wow..." "I see the hand!" Yang Dingfeng yelled, and I saw it too. The moment the stomach bug came out of the water, I saw a green hand grabbing the stomach bug's neck, my god!After catching the water ghost all at once, what should I do besides peeing my pants in fright? Should I apologize to him? Or put him in something? Still... still... my mind was blank, I just pulled the thick rope with all my might. "Damn! Hurry up!" Ha Bang yelled, stepping on a wooden box with snacks under his feet.That wooden box was obviously where Ha Bang wanted to imprison the water ghost. "Boss! What if the wooden box can't fit?" Yang Dingfeng, who has always been treacherous, also panicked, and he was about to drag the stomach bug and the water ghost into the boat. "I'm knocked out and tied up!" Ha Bang shouted happily. At this moment, we pulled the belly worm into the boat, and sure enough, a green water ghost hooked the belly worm's neck like a spirit behind it. We all jumped away screaming, my god!A living water ghost! Of course, Ha Bang can be our boss, there is really something special about him! Ha Bang didn't hesitate at all, he rushed forward and kicked the water ghost's drooping face, the water ghost was still tightly hooking the stomach bug's neck, it was really haunting. "Damn!" Ha Bang angrily punched the water ghost in the face, the water ghost couldn't bear it, and walked away from the fainting belly worm with a wow, and then Ha Bang used his well-known shoulder throw. "bump!" The water ghost was thrown onto the deck by Ha Bang's powerful over-the-shoulder throw, and then Ha Bang jumped into the air, giving him an elbow that fell from the sky! "Wow!" The water ghost screamed and spit out a lot of sea water from its mouth. Then we finally saw clearly that the water ghost was actually a human being! The man who looked like a water ghost was knocked awake by Ha Bang's powerful elbow, and spit seawater on the ground in pain. Obviously, he was probably an unlucky fisherman who was washed away by the sea, or a poor wretch who smuggled into the sea ; he was wearing a green long-sleeved tracksuit and black jeans, his hair covered most of his face, and he was throwing up. "Are you a human?" Yang Dingfeng squatted down to study the man who fell into the sea. The person who fell into the sea nodded, and then continued to vomit. "Boss, how to deal with it?" I asked, the person who fell into the sea is pitiful enough, it is impossible to ask him how he fell into the sea now, he does not know how long he has been drifting at sea, and it is even more likely that he has not eaten for a long time.But he is really lucky enough to meet a group of young friends who love water ghost fishing and save him by accident. "Take it away." Ha Bang seemed less interested, and said, "When he remembers his name, write it down. We all have a share in his life." After everyone cheered for a while, Ha Bang drove the boat to the shore, and later we found out that we did not arrive at Jibei Island, but returned to Magong.But there is nothing to be suspicious of, and it is a great fortune to be able to dock safely. The name of the person who fell into the sea was Zhang Suigui, and he could be regarded as catching a water ghost. Zhongsheng dared to swim from Jibei Island to Magong, and then he was so stupid that he forgot to take off his clothes and went into the water. It was incredible luck to be caught by us while unconscious. The next day, Zhang Suigui gratefully treated us to a big meal, and we accepted his suggestion, and immediately found a family-style shrine in Magong to calm the nonsense stomach bugs.
