Tiny Story: Monsters in the Lake

author:5-minute mini-novel

01

I believe everyone has heard some rumors about water monsters, such as Changbai Mountain Tianchi Water Monster, Jingpo Lake Water Monster, Qinghai Lake Water Monster and so on. I've heard a lot of it, and I've even seen it with my own eyes. It was an amazing feeling, and these experiences will never be forgotten.

One summer, my rich second-generation friend Teacher Bai invited me to visit Jiangxi. In those days, I happened to have nothing to do, and anyway, I didn't need to spend money, so I happily went with him.

Teacher Bai likes camping, and after coming down from Lushan, he proposed to go camping by Poyang Lake. I readily agreed.

At night, the two of us sat by the lake, watching the stars, the moon, philosophy and life. Among them, the most talked about is naturally the unknown areas and anecdotes that Teacher Bai is most interested in.

As I spoke, Teacher Bai asked me if I knew much about Poyang Lake.

To be honest, I don't know much about Poyang Lake, it's almost the same knowledge in the Geography textbook. When Teacher Bai heard this, he suddenly became interested, and felt that he could "be a teacher" well for me, Xiaobai. Although he usually politely called me "teacher".

"Lake Poyang is the largest freshwater lake in China," he said. ”

I nodded, "Well, this geography textbook says that. ”

Teacher Bai was stunned and smiled a little embarrassed. But what he said next was not in the textbook.

He said that there is a gloomy death zone on Poyang Lake, that is, the waters of the Lao Ye Temple. From ancient times to the present, many boats have been swallowed by the lake there.

According to the "History of Ming", Zhu Yuanzhang was once in distress in the death zone, but fortunately was rescued by a giant ferry. At that time, he also promised the giant moose that when he became emperor, he would make him king and build a temple for it. Later, after Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne, he really issued an edict to build a temple and gave it the title of "Dingjiang King Temple", and the common people called this temple "Lao Ye Temple".

Since then, no one has seen the giant ferret again.

However, since the summer of 1970, people have seen huge monsters emerging from Poyang Lake. However, these eyewitnesses' descriptions of the monsters were not consistent, so it was once believed that there was no so-called lake monster in it.

"Then is there really no lake monster in Poyang Lake?" I couldn't help but ask.

Teacher Bai shook his head, pointed to his nose and said, "But I have seen it with my own eyes." ”

I was so surprised that I quickly called him to talk.

In the past, whenever this kind of magical experience was mentioned, Teacher Bai always showed an expression of excitement and satisfaction, but this time, his expression was a little complicated, and it seemed that the experience was not particularly pleasant.

Six years ago, Teacher Bai and a few friends from all over the world came to Poyang Lake for a picnic. That trip, in fact, was not proposed by Teacher Bai, he was just interested in this kind of activity, so he came. Some friends brought family or other friends with them, so there were about 20 people at the picnic.

At night, everyone sits around a campfire, sits down to barbecue and chats about the world. At this time, Teacher Bai can always hear many interesting short stories.

After everyone chatted for a while, some children couldn't sit still, stood up and ran wildly, and parents followed. Two or three other people also stood up, saying that they were full and tired, and wanted to walk nearby to consume food.

But not long after, a friend ran back and shouted, "It's not good, someone accidentally fell into the lake." I can't swim, is there anyone here who can swim, hurry up and save people! ”

In addition to Teacher Bai, there were three men who could swim. The four of them immediately stood up, pulled their legs and ran.

After walking to the place of the accident, through the moonlight, Teacher Bai vaguely saw a person fluttering in the water in the distance.

Teacher Bai and the three men were about to enter the water, when suddenly, there was a loud "boom" sound from the water. Everyone is wondering what is calling.

At this moment, the figure of a white giant beast jumped out of the water, because the distance was a little far, and the splash was too big, Teacher Bai couldn't see the appearance of the white beast. I saw that after the white giant beast jumped up, it threw the man who unfortunately fell into the water under him, and then his head and body quickly sank into the water, revealing only his tail.

This time, Teacher Bai saw clearly the tail of the white beast, which resembled a white dragon.

Everyone was stunned, and they all thought that the man who fell into the lake must have been eaten by the white giant beast.

When something like this happened, no one dared to go into the water to save people. Everyone hurriedly called the police, but in the end, the police searched around, but did not find the man's body.

I couldn't help but ask, "Have you ever seen a white beast like that before?" Or, when you studied archaeology in school, did you ever see such an animal in a book? ”

Teacher Bai shook his head and said, "Although I haven't seen it clearly, I'm sure I haven't seen such a white beast. Although its tail resembles a dragon, its head and body are far from those of a dragon. ”

That night, I talked with Teacher Bai until late, and then went back to sleep in our respective tents at the same time.

In the middle of the night, I vaguely heard Teacher Bai shouting "help", and a spirit sat up and walked outside the tent.

I looked towards the lake, and saw Teacher Bai raising his hands in the water, popping his head from time to time: "Help..."

I was scared and sweating because I was a dry duck and couldn't get into the water to save Mr. Bai. Moreover, Isn't Teacher Bai able to swim? How so?

I had to call the police and shout for help, but there was no signal on the phone, and I could only pray that someone nearby could come to save Teacher Bai.

But just after I shouted "help" a few times, there was a sudden roar in the lake, and then a white giant beast appeared, whiter than Teacher Bai's skin. Its head was like a parachute, it only appeared for a few seconds before it disappeared into the water, carrying Teacher Bai's body towards the shallow water.

Because the body of the white beast is basically in the water, and it is night, I can't see its appearance at all.

When it was almost on the shore, the white beast gently pushed Teacher Bai towards the shallow beach, and then it completely submerged into the water and disappeared.

I dragged Teacher Bai back, and after shouting at him a few times, he finally slowly opened his eyes.

Seeing that Teacher Bai was okay, I built another fire and asked Teacher Bai to change his clothes and warm up again.

Much later, whenever I think back on it, it feels like a dream. However, many people have seen the lake monsters of Poyang Lake, and I don't have to make a fuss.

I asked Teacher Bai, what is going on?

Teacher Bai said that he was lying in the tent, he really couldn't sleep, and he felt that the weather was very hot, so he got up and went to the shallow water in the lake to swim.

Who knows, after swimming for a while, his left foot suddenly cramped and he couldn't move. And, strangely, he felt his body drifting away unconsciously, farther and farther from shore. He subconsciously struggled, but the more he struggled, the farther his body floated, and he had to shout for help.

Later, he vaguely heard me shouting for help on the shore. Immediately afterwards, he heard a roar in the water, and then he fainted.

"It's really time for you to faint!" I added some sticks of wood to the campfire. Teacher Bai didn't know what to do, and asked me how this dry duck rescued him.

I said, "I didn't save you, it was the white lake monster that saved you." It's a pity that you don't have this blessing, this is all intimate, and you can't see it. ”

What the? Teacher Bai couldn't sit still, so Huo Di stood up and told me to quickly tell him the details.

Teacher Bai told me three times before I gave up to make sure that I didn't miss a single detail.

He kept sighing, saying that he had escaped death this time, and he became more and more respectful of all living beings.

I remembered that Teacher Bai had also seen the lake monster before, so I asked curiously: "Teacher Bai, you said, is the lake monster that rescued you tonight the same one you saw back then?" ”

"How do I know? I fainted. Teacher Bai thought for a moment, and then said, "But judging from your description, I feel that it should be the same one." ”

Teacher Bai also asked me if I had used my mobile phone to take pictures of the lake monster.

I suddenly felt speechless, my good friend's life was in danger, if I was still taking pictures, then I was still human?

Besides, the white giant beast appeared for a few seconds, and I just didn't have time to take pictures! Open your phone, find the camera, tap the camera, and finally take a picture of the white beast to complete this series of actions, it will be more than a few seconds!

Teacher Bai nodded and said with a smile: "Teacher, you are right. ”

But there was one thing I never understood.

If the white beast I saw was the same lake monster that Teacher Bai saw back then, why didn't it save people, but harmed people?

The explanation given by Teacher Bai was that back then, no one had actually seen the white beast eat people. Perhaps, it didn't eat the man, but just accidentally got him underwater.

But I think this explanation is a bit far-fetched, since the white beast can save Teacher Bai at a critical moment, it should be impossible for it not to see the person who is fluttering in the water. Even if you accidentally get someone underwater, there should be a way to save him.

Therefore, my guess is that Teacher Bai has always been obsessed with the mysterious realm, and the lake monster is probably related to Teacher Bai.

Teacher Bai smiled, but did not quite agree with my thoughts.

He gave another guess that silenced me.

It turned out that the man who disappeared in Poyang Lake back then was not Teacher Bai's friend, but Teacher Bai's friend. Teacher Bai learned from his friends that the man was a powerful businessman, but he had done a lot of vicious things by any means in order to make money. Because he was too cunning and the police did not have enough evidence, he was temporarily allowed to go unpunished.

Who would have thought that he would eventually be cleaned up by a lake monster.

Teacher Bai felt that this lake monster also knew how to distinguish between good people and bad people. I think that Teacher Bai's guess may be right! What do you think?
