Chapter 6 Magic Thailand Tour 1 Three Stories

Traveling gives people a feeling of wandering. At the end of each journey, the desire to return home will be extremely strong, but the beauty and wonder brought by the travel process can make people ruminate for a long time after returning home.I say that travel is a kind of flight. Flying over the vast expanse of mysterious and novel flower fields at a very fast speed, although the time is short, the stamina is endless; when people explore in unfamiliar fields, it can be called an adventure. , an adventure that nourishes the soul and broadens the horizon. No matter what the working hours are, my irregular trips will never disappear from my schedule. Over the years, I have traveled to many countries, such as the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Greece, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, New Zealand... The memories of these countries are like colorful colors. The more they are stored, the more difficult it is to choose and recall as one likes; although many pictures are gorgeous, they do not penetrate into the bottom of my heart, but become free lights, slipping away on the edge of memory.

During the trip, I had some unforgettable experiences, and I recorded them through words. Many people will bump into ghosts when they go to Thailand. I didn’t believe in evil at first; but on the last trip to Pattaya, I was so impartial that I bumped into it. The memory of the horror is still hard to get rid of.To commemorate this adventure, this travel note was born.I hope to be able to clearly document what is quite possibly one of the strangest events in paranormal history. "It's easy to bump into ghosts in Thailand." The camel tour guide pursed his lips and said seriously.

The location is a Chinese restaurant some distance from Bangkok Airport. There are not many customers in the restaurant, mainly tour groups, occupying five round tables; each table is equipped with delicious dishes and hot soup. For passengers who have taken a plane for nearly four hours, the most important thing to do at this stage is to eat a lot. I picked up my chopsticks and prepared to eat; it is very unwise to talk about ghosts at dinner time, but there is no way, someone is quite interested in this matter, so I asked the guide, and the guide seemed very willing to talk about anecdotes in this regard, So he started talking.

This is the third time I have come to Thailand. The itinerary for the first time is the same as this time. It is a journey between Bangkok and Pattaya. The second time I went to Chiang Mai in northern Thailand, which is located in Thailand, I was deeply impressed by the beautiful Golden Triangle at the junction of Myanmar and the three old countries; this time it was a relive of old dreams. Since I couldn’t forget the beautiful beach in Pattaya and wanted to see the intoxicating sea beauty again, I picked a different travel agency. Walk almost the same itinerary again.The mood is different, and the harvest and feelings will be different. On the one hand, with the joy of reconnecting with old friends, on the other hand, open your eyes with your heart, intending to capture many details that were missed before; the mood of the blend of "past" and "present" elements , is the keynote I laid in my heart for this trip.

My memory of Thailand is a fresh-keeping feeling. When I first came to Thailand, I was overwhelmed by the unique Thai style. It was an indescribable and reassuring feeling.Walking on the streets of Thailand, there is a kind of tranquility like driving a small boat, which is a kind of intimacy that cannot be experienced in other countries. The key moment for my heart to connect with Thailand was when I visited the "Dream World" (Dream World), known as Thailand's Disneyland.That afternoon, before the assembly time, I sat alone on a chair in the entrance square, letting the crowds rush in from all directions, as if I was the center of the circle, and the crowd formed a circular whirlpool; the shops, snack stalls, The trees, and everything else, are all involved in this vortex; my mood flows in it, but it is quiet and peaceful, which is a wonderful touch that I have never seen before in a foreign country.

Perhaps in order to rediscover that feeling, there was a second or even third trip to Thailand. This trip, which lasted six days, was mainly between Bangkok and Pattaya. The trip to Tiya Beach will visit Grand Island and Treasure Island, including canoes, banana boats and other water activities; other itineraries such as riding elephants, ladyboy shows, night cruises on the Chao Phraya River, and visiting teak wood palaces are absolutely must. It is indispensable; the finale and the most special, of course, is the Thai massage. Since I experienced the baptism of Shiatsu massage, herbal massage, and essential oil massage last time, I can’t even forget the comfort and blood flow. The feeling of heaven.

"Do you have any personal experience of encountering ghosts? Can you tell me about it?" A young man with thin cheeks and unshaven beard asked eagerly. There were nearly 30 tourists in this tour group, and I was not particularly impressed by the diverse faces, but I paid special attention to the friends who were at the same table as me for dinner. The tour guide's surname is Tuo, and his single name is Zhen. He was born in Yunnan, China. Later, the whole family migrated to Thailand and finally settled in Bangkok.He is a man who at first glance is very serious, but when he opens up, he is very chatty; tonight he is wearing a black T-shirt, a shiny gold watch wrapped around his left wrist, and the gold watch resting on his piercing eyes. Framed glasses, like a golden eagle wrapped in black feathers; I can't tell his age, maybe between forty-five and sixty.

Camel Zhen gives people a sense of stern and unpredictable majesty; as the person in charge of leading the tour group, his authority is quite stable.Moreover, there was a cello case in his luggage during this trip. He said that he loves music and entertains himself by playing the violin in the hotel room.Truly someone special. The man who asked the question just now looked to be in his early thirties, with sunken cheeks and a slightly pale complexion, but when the word "ghost" was mentioned, his eyes shot out with surprising concentration, which is a kind of researcher who is devoted to A light that only appears when you think about it.This person must also be the kind of paranoid with some special interests!A "scholar" who doesn't care about worldly affairs and only has his own world in his mind.

The woman sitting next to the man rolled his eyes at him, with a warning look in his eyes, sharp yet feminine.She looks younger than the man, but according to my irresponsible guess, she should be around 27 or 28 years old.On the rosy cheeks with foundation, the shadow of exhaustion appeared; under the slightly dim eyes, there were two black crescent moons hanging. "Do you have to ask this?" Although the woman's voice was deliberately lowered, it was obviously mixed with a trace of anger that wanted everyone to understand her dissatisfaction, so I heard it. The man ignored her, as if he was used to this kind of complaining question, and said to the camel tour guide, "I am very interested in supernatural things. I think there are quite a lot of ghosts in Thailand. I have wanted to ask a guide for a long time. Since Mr. Tuo took the initiative to bring it up, why don't you talk about it?"

It turned out that this man was interested in supernatural things. I rubbed my chin with great interest, and forgot to eat for a while.Presumably his female companion has no interest in this matter at all, no wonder her face is burning with will-o'-the-wisps.Unfortunately, the two did not meet. "Well, let me talk about it. I have encountered ghosts three times. I hope it won't affect everyone's appetite..." The camel tour guide adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses. When it comes to ghosts in Thailand, I think of ghost movies in Thailand. Since I have a special liking for this country, of course I have not let go of the Thai movies introduced by most filmmakers."Ghost Nana", "Ghost Grudge", "Ghost Curse", "Ghost Shadow" and other films came to mind. The quality of Thai ghost movies is not bad, and some scripts are even very good. I haven't seen more Thai movies in China. It can only be said that it is deeply regrettable that it was released in Taiwan.

Talking about the experience of encountering ghosts, I have never encountered it myself, and I will not be particularly shy about talking about these things.But, why does that man love this topic so much? "Let me talk about the first time." The camel tour guide put down the bowls and chopsticks and cleared his throat. "About when I was eight or nine years old. At that time, our family just moved to Thailand, and we lived temporarily in a two-story building. In a dilapidated house, it rained heavily one night. I was sleeping alone in the bedroom and was suddenly awakened by a strange sound. I sat up from the bed, quite frightened, as if someone was knocking on the floor. I shook my younger sister awake ——I only have one younger sister—and told her that something was wrong with the room, then bravely jumped out of the bed and dragged her to my parents' bedroom next door. My father was not there that night, only my mother was wrapped in a tattered quilt Lying on the bed, my sister and I got into the bed, hugged my mother, and kept shaking. She asked me softly what happened, and I said there was a strange noise in the room, and I dared not sleep alone. She patted my head and told me It's okay, go to bed quickly. I hugged her with peace of mind, but I felt that the bed was extremely cold." He paused for a while, looked around everyone, everyone looked very stiff, and no one moved the food on the table, "A few minutes later I heard a shout coming from downstairs, someone calling my name! I pricked up my ears to listen carefully. Isn’t that my mother’s voice? I slowly raised my head and stared at the body I was holding, only to realize that I had just slipped into the bed Up to now, I haven't seen the other person's face at all. That face was covered by a thick quilt, and only a long hair was seen protruding from the gap in the quilt. My sister and I were so scared that we fell off the bed and rolled over. I crawled out of the room, almost rolled to the first floor, and saw my mother standing there in surprise. It turned out that the sound of wind and rain woke her up. She went downstairs to check the doors and windows, and walked into my room on the second floor. When she found that our brother and sister were not in bed, she thought I was hungry and went to the kitchen to look for something to eat, and then went down to the first floor to look for me, but couldn't find me, so she called my name... I told her what happened just now, and she looked shocked. Believe it, she accompanied us back to her dormitory. When we went back again, there was no one on the bed; but in the torn bedding, I found a few half-white hairs. My mother swore that she didn't lose them. Because of this, I am even more convinced that what happened that night is real. Later we moved out of that house, and after inquiring, we found out that before we moved in, there was a couple living there. Rain killed his wife and stuffed her body into the floor in my bedroom. Needless to say, the woman died with long, half-white hair, of course." The camel tour guide stopped here and took a sip of tea. "Is this... is this true?" The young lady who was the leader of the tour group was the one who spoke. She seemed to be a novice to the leader of the Thailand team, and she hadn't made a few trips on this itinerary.She is less than 160 centimeters tall and as thin as a bamboo pole. "I said it was a personal experience!" The camel tour guide's eyes showed a mighty authority, and his expression looked a little annoyed at this time. "It's quite interesting," the skinny man rubbed his chin, and then asked, "When this incident happened at that time, there should be no photos left?" This question seemed to have stunned everyone present. "I don't quite understand what you mean." The camel tour guide shook his head. "I mean, when you lived in that house, did you have any pictures?" "Do you think it is possible to have a camera with our financial capacity at that time?" The camel guide's eyes became sharper like eagles, and he stared at the thin man. "Ah, sorry, that's a stupid question. What about the other two ghost encounters?" He touched his head, but his eyes still looked eager.The man's female companion seemed to have given up on talking to him, and was picking up food on her own, as if there was no one else around. "The second time happened three years ago, when I was working as a tour guide. At that time, the group I led stayed in a certain hotel in Pattaya. I was quite tired from playing in the water that day, and I went back to the hotel at night. After confirming that none of the team members needed assistance, I went back to my room and fell asleep after taking a shower. Sleeping in the middle of the night, for some unknown reason, I woke up suddenly, rubbed my eyes, and looked at the electronic clock on the bedside table, it was three in the morning Point. I left a night light by the door before I went to bed, so the room would not be completely dark. I always felt that there was a very eerie feeling in the room, as if I was not the only one in it. "The feeling was getting stronger and stronger, and I thought to myself that no one would break into the room. Getting out of bed, I walked to the door, and I was stunned. The latch was unlocked, and the door was leaning against It’s on the door frame!” The camel guide stopped dramatically at this point, looked around the audience, and found that everyone was staring at him before continuing with satisfaction, “I closed the door again, bolted it, turned on the headlights, and let’s go. I went back to the bed, crouched down tremblingly, and went under the bed where I was sleeping. There was nothing underneath. I also checked the bottom of the other bed, and there was no abnormality at all. There are only places where people can hide in the room. The wardrobe was left, but there was only a quilt stuffed inside, and after inspection, not even a mouse was found. "The window is still locked from the inside, and the lock has not changed at all. It's not that I don't believe in ghosts, but at first I thought maybe my memory was wrong and I didn't lock the door. But for safety reasons, I didn't turn off the lights , went to bed, tried to close his eyes and continue to sleep. "It's really hard to fall asleep with the headlights on. I don't know how long it has passed, but I still fell asleep. I was in a trance, and suddenly woke up from my sleep. I opened my eyes and realized that the lights were off. Even the night light in the entrance was gone. disappeared, and the room was enveloped in darkness. "Now, I really started to get nervous, but I couldn't move my whole body, as if I was glued to the bed. After struggling for a long time, my eyes began to adapt to the darkness. Just as I was struggling to twist my body, a shocking thing happened. Horrible things happen... "The part of the quilt below my knees suddenly swelled up, as if a self-inflating balloon was placed inside, and it became bigger and bigger. The quilt was gradually pulled away from my body due to the expansion. In less than a minute, the quilt completely left my body. "I could just stare at the bloated, blanket-covered thing standing at the foot of the bed, which looked like a human figure, but didn't move. "Just as I was trying to yell out, the quilt covering the inflated object fell; in about one-thousandth of a second, an image flashed in front of my eyes, and then I lost consciousness." The camel tour guide said He paused here again. It seems that his habit is not to finish the story in one go, but needs to explain in paragraphs, so as to provide room for the audience to interject and give him the opportunity to add explanations. "What image flashed?" The tone of the leader lady was trembling. "The image of a one-eyed long-haired woman, wearing a white robe. I even wonder if it's the one I met for the first time." After speaking, he laughed a few times to himself. "What happened after that?" The thin man asked this time. "I was woken up by the morning call at seven o'clock, the quilt fell on the floor, and my whole body was sore when I got out of the bed. The door of the room was still loose and the door was not closed. It was the same condition as when I got up for the first time the night before. After breakfast in the restaurant, I went to the counter and asked a waiter. I asked him if anything had happened to the room I lived in before. No matter how many times I asked him, his answer was 'no'. It seems To emphasize specifically, the waiter opened his eyes wide, raised his palms and waved them across, emphasizing 'no'; due to his resolute attitude, it is inconvenient for me to ask further." "Is there any result?" Our young female team leader was so frightened that her face turned pale and her whole body was trembling. "This..." "I think there should still be a problem." I interrupted at this time.Everyone turned their heads to stare at me.I felt a little embarrassed when the light hit me suddenly, but I continued to explain in a calm but clear voice: "According to the research of British and Italian scholars, human beings will make exaggerated movements when lying, but they don't touch their noses." or blinking; this is because the mind is calmer when lying, and less subtle movements such as blinking are made, and on the contrary, exaggerated movements are made because of concentration." "So the counter staff are still lying," the skinny man nodded in satisfaction, "I really want to know what happened in that room. Mr. Camel, did you take any pictures in that room during your stay?" The camel tour guide showed a smile that was not a smile, and finally said seriously: "Fortunately, I finally had my own camera at that time, but the question is, who would take pictures in the room where I stayed alone? I am not that boring. " "That's right." The man bowed his head and apologized, but he didn't seem to be liberated from his own thoughts, and he was still focused on what he was thinking. "By the way, why are you so interested in photos?" The tour guide finally asked me the question I had wanted to ask for a long time. "This..." The skinny man showed an unspeakable expression, his eyes suddenly moved, and finally fell on the woman beside him. The woman sighs and shrugs, "whatever you want". "I'm a photographer." The man first looked at the fried vegetables on the table before turning to the tour guide. "Photographer?" The camel tour guide looked at the other party, chewing on his words. The man nodded, "Apart from photography, I have a special hobby..." "Ok?" "It's just collecting ghost photos." For a while, no one spoke. The focus person laughed a few times: "I know what you are thinking, you must think I am crazy, but this is really an interesting subject. I have liked reading books about supernatural events since elementary school, although my parents were very nervous. I objected, but I still secretly bought a lot of books for collection. Later, I became obsessed with photography, and I had a special liking for weird photos. At first, I searched for this information everywhere, but later found that if I searched for it myself, there are Time comes faster instead. This is why I like to run around, but the places I run are nothing more than cemeteries, mass graves, murder scenes, accident scenes or places where strange events have happened. Taking pictures in these places often brings unexpected surprises. More than ninety-nine percent of supernatural photos are the result of fraud or photography failure, and the authenticity of the rest is also questionable, but I have dozens of authentic ones on hand, all from My own camera." The skinny man seemed to be addicted, and he didn't mean to stop.I swallowed the last bite, wiped my mouth, and kept my ears receptive the entire time. "I have sorted out quite a lot of information about ghost photos. It lists all kinds of ghost photos I have collected in detail, and attaches the location and date of shooting, as well as the origin and introduction of the photo... I dare not say that I am a professional master, It is purely a personal interest, but over the years, I have studied a lot of experience, and I have made many friends who are interested in this way, and communicated with each other. I came to Thailand this time, of course, because the ghosts in Thailand are quite famous, so I wanted to come here to see the ghosts. Can't collect any precious photos..." Since no one answered, the camel tour guide who asked the question had no choice but to take a deep breath, nodded and said, "I see, but I'm afraid I can only provide you with stories. I don't have any strange photos here." "Of course I understand. Will you stay in the haunted hotel you just mentioned on this trip to Pattaya?" "Unfortunately, no. Although the hotel is still there, we don't have time to go around there, and it's not convenient for me to take you there privately. Please forgive me." "I understand," the man showed an embarrassed smile, "Anyway, everyone is already here, and I will capture it with my camera. By the way, what about the third ghost story of Mr. Tour Guide?" The camel tour guide glanced at his watch and stood up slowly, "Let's keep it a secret for now, but this third story is the most exciting and incredible. It's getting late, we're going to the hotel to rest, what's the matter?" Let's talk about it tomorrow." The man seemed a little disappointed, but he stood up anyway; the woman next to him showed a relieved expression, and left the seat without saying a word to him.I stood up and pushed the chair under the table. The passengers at the tables next to me had already left the restaurant and boarded the tour bus. Before I left, I saw the tour leader ask Tuo Zhen with a worried expression on her face: "I'm going to the hotel in Pattaya the day after tomorrow. It shouldn't be a problem, right? You won't encounter anything strange, right?" Faced with this question, Mr. Tuo opened his eyes wide and threw out six words without blinking. "Absolutely no problem."
