Chapter 10 Chapter One

The matter of the Ruoji ghost has just passed away temporarily.I also went home because there were still classes in school.Although I am in class, my heart is always in the clouds, and I always look forward to going to catch ghosts with my grandpa again.What I didn't expect was that my wish came true soon. I didn't have time to go to grandpa's house, but grandpa came to our house in person.Not to mention my excitement.It turned out that someone was looking for grandpa to catch ghosts again, and that person was from our village, so grandpa came to live with us for a while for convenience.

The person who came to see my grandpa was my "same-year dad" Shan Dae.I call him "Dad of the Same Year" because his son was born on the same day and month in the same year as me. It is rare for such a coincidence to happen in such a palm-sized place in Changshan Village, so the two families feel that they have more than others. affectionate.This is also the custom of people in our area, which is beyond reproach.Although I didn't want to, I had to obediently call him "Dad of the same year". Why does Shan Dae want to find Grandpa?This matter has to be talked about from last year-at that time, Shan Dae's son had not been dragged away by the water ghost.

It was last summer vacation, and Shan Dae’s son Bingbing was swimming in the lotus pond with a few playmates from the same village.Together with these children is the old buffalo that Shan Dae has raised for five years.Shan Dae has long wanted to replace it with a young and strong buffalo. After all, the few acres of land at home cannot be left unused.No one wanted the old buffalo, so Shan Dae wanted to kill the old buffalo and sell the meat to earn some money for a new calf, but before Shan Dae took the plastic rope to tie the old buffalo up, the old buffalo's eyes filled with tears. Big ones fell down, and it knew in advance that the person who had been its master for five years was going to kill it.Seeing his old plowing partner crying, Shan Dae couldn't bear to kill him anymore.Shan Dae's woman persuaded him a few times, and Shan Dae said: "Use it for a few more years, although plowing the fields is a bit slow, but after so many years, I have developed feelings."

The old buffalo is spiritual. When Shan Dae's son Bingbing wanted to go into the water, the old buffalo stuck his nose and refused to go down the pond.If it was normal, the old buffalo would definitely run in front of Bingbing and get into the water, soaking its pitch-black mouth in the water and "tearing and tearing" to drink up.Bingbing called his partner to pull the old buffalo together. The reins pulled the old buffalo's nose out of blood. The old buffalo was still disobedient. piece. "If you don't drink, don't drink!" Bingbing threw off the rein angrily, and threw the cow on the bank. He and a group of playful friends jumped into the water in various flying poses.

Yanyan is a girl, she doesn't swim in the village pond like a wild boy, she murmurs to scare them: "I heard from my fourth grandma that you can see ghosts with bull's eyes, you are carefully dragged away by water ghosts and used as substitutes. " Bingbing mischievously said: "If I want to drag you, I will drag you. You are good-looking, and you will be the daughter-in-law of the water ghost, haha!" When the other partners heard Yanyan mentioning the water ghost, they were too timid to go into the water. Hearing what Bingbing said, he burst into laughter and jumped into the water with confidence.

The boys all jumped into the lotus pond, and the cheerful laughter and fighting sound immediately cooled the hot summer. While the boys were having fun, Yanyan who was watching from the bank suddenly pointed to the other bank of the lotus pond and shouted: "There is something moving in the lotus over there!" To the south of the lotus pond is the cement steps for laundry, with rippling blue waves, but to the north is a lush lotus and lotus leaves.The distance between the north and south banks is less than fifty meters.The boys all looked towards the north of the lotus pond in the direction Yanyan pointed. The lotus leaves and flowers with long stems shook violently, as if a big fish was speeding through the water and bumped into the pond in a hurry. The lower lotus leaf pole causes the sound of "braking".

Several timid children immediately climbed ashore, screaming in fright.Bingbing and several other older children stood in the water, staring straight at the lotus leaf. The water on the other side of the lotus leaf was stirred up by something, and it was quiet for a while.Everyone stared at the place where the water rippled, not daring to breathe loudly.After waiting for a while, seeing that there was no movement, Bingbing laughed loudly: "What are you afraid of? It's a big fish." In order to show that they are not afraid in front of their partners, several other older children also laughed and said, "Yes, it is a big fish. Let's go and catch the big fish!" This proposal was received by a few Everyone responded, and the rest of the children still didn't dare to go into the water.

Yanyan said timidly: "I think you should come up, I see long black hair, I'm afraid it's not a fish." Bingbing ridiculed Yanyan's timidity: "Have you seen the long black hair yet? There is no such thing as long hair in the water! You must be dizzy after being frightened." Swim in the middle of the pond.Three or two older children followed suit. Yanyan said: "I'm afraid it's a water ghost. I heard adults say that a water ghost has long hair. A water ghost has no strength on the shore, but is stronger than a cow in the water. Three or four adults are not its own." opponent!"

Yanyan hadn't finished speaking, and sure enough, there was the sound of "squeaking" water from the lotus leaf.A dark thing swam out of the cover of the lotus leaf and came towards Bingbing and the others. The underwater shape was unclear, but long black hairs like algae floated on the surface of the water, as if a woman was diving!
