The legend of Heishui Lake

Once upon a time, there was a black snake that was a disaster. Three Taoist priests suppressed it in a cave at the bottom of Heishui Lake, from which the word "black" came.

This story was discovered by Baidu before I traveled to Heishui Lake. I find it very interesting. I prefer this strange smell. I think this is because I was influenced by horror novels since I was a child.

I remember when I was a child, I borrowed a copy of Strange Tales from a Lonely Studio from my classmate's house, and curled up in the quilt at night, reading it with relish.

I came to Heishui Lake with great expectation and got off the bus. It was already evening. I'm a little hungry, and I don't have enough bread with me.

I think I need protein. I followed other people who got off the bus to Heishui Lake and looked around for a snack bar.

After walking for a while, the number of young men and women wearing fashionable clothes gradually increased, and my nose began to smell some delicious sauce. I walked into a food street.

There are many barbecue shops here. I saw that most of the ingredients in the barbecue were seafood, but there were also a few pork and beef.

I can't wait! Suppressing my inner excitement, I patiently searched for the delicious food I wanted to eat.

Suddenly, I noticed a long wooden sign standing next to a small shop, on which were written five big characters in red paint: "I don't want to die if I am hot." I was instantly attracted by spicy food. God, there's a long line. I don't care at all, so I quickly lined up.

The proprietress moved quickly, and I quickly got in line.

Although the proprietress is very busy, I can see that her face is full of bright smiles and sweat, and she wipes her face with a towel from time to time.

I took delicious food from the boss's wife, a kind of shellfish like mussels, covered with various seasonings, mainly red peppers, with meat and shells, steaming on the grill.

It feels spicy when you look at it!

I asked the young man who looked similar to my age, "What kind of seafood is this?"

He was eating happily and looked up and told me enthusiastically, "This is the fresh lake fish in Heishui Lake."

"Oh!" I exclaimed and began to taste my delicious food. It is too spicy. I feel endorphins in my brain begin to secrete. Pepper stimulates my taste buds, and I get excited.

The fresh meat in this lake is slightly hard and feels chewy. After eating, I felt my stomach warm and my forehead began to sweat.

After eating, I went to the automatic beverage vending machine and bought a bottle of beverage.

I caught a glimpse of an iron railing about tens of meters away from my left hand side, and there were many trees outside the railing.

Holding the attitude of enjoying the cool, I walked over, arms crossed and elbows propped on the iron railing.

Looking into the Woods in the distance, I saw a lake. I think it's Blackwater Lake!

I can't believe the lake is so clear that even the water in the living water lake is not so clean.

I'm confused. Is it artificial water purification? I think so.

At this time, a breeze blew, carrying the water vapor of the lake and shaking the leaves at the same time. It was refreshing and I was satisfied.

At this moment, I heard two people discussing something in the distance, which seemed to be related to the barbecue shop just now. This aroused my curiosity.

So I pretended to be watching the scenery, but I was actually listening to their conversation.

"……"

"I heard that the famous Baked Lake Fresh Store here seems to be out of stock recently." One of the men said that he had a loud voice and was a baritone.

Another tenor echoed: "Yes, this store has closed early recently and is usually open until evening."

The high-pitched voice continued: "The boss's wife is in a small business. I heard that he has a child who is still in college. He should earn more money for his study! "

"And I've never met the boss's husband. She won't bring up the child alone! " The baritone said.

"alas." Only the tenor sighed and said, "What a pity."

When I heard that, I also felt sad.

Suddenly, the tenor changed the subject and said in a frightened voice, "It wasn't the black snake that ate all the fresh lake!" "

I feel another person stunned. "Are you kidding? Wasn't the black snake sealed by Taoist priests hundreds of years ago? "

I was speechless and thought, boy, so you also believe in this stuff!

The tenor then casually said, "It is said that the effectiveness of this black snake print will weaken with time. After 300 years, maybe the black snake can break through the seal. "

"This is just your guess!" The baritone said in a relaxed tone.

"Not really. Recently, I heard that residents here sometimes hear strange creatures at night, and their voices are hoarse and sharp. " The tenor added.

Speaking of which, the two seem to have lost interest in continuing the discussion, and I heard their footsteps slowly drifting away.

So I looked back and saw the backs of a fat boy and a thin boy drifting away, both wearing Hawaiian shirts and trousers.

After a rest, I began to walk to the location of Heishui Lake.

I saw a path on the edge of the forest, which was a little steep, but I could still walk on.

I stepped on the ground, walked down slowly, walked through the Woods, and then moved on.

I see Blackwater Lake getting closer and closer to me.

Finally, I arrived at the lake. It's estimated that few people walked on that path just now. I still can't see the figure where I stand, and I can enjoy the scenery by myself.

The lake is clear, and some places can even let sunlight pass through, forming a string of beams under water.

I have found the reason why the lake is so clear. When I looked at the bottom of the lake, I saw many green creatures-green algae and moss.

Where there is no green cover, the soil is bare, and the water in those places is turbid. Some lakes have round things like rocks attached to them, and they are in groups. I know it's the fresh lake I just ate.

After a pause, I began to walk along the lake, and after a long walk, the dirt road under my feet became Shi Zhuan Road. I see many people in the distance.

Some girls are still taking pictures by the lake with their mobile phones.

At this time, a dark cave in the lake attracted my attention, and my head naturally leaned over to look.

This cave is very big, which stands out from here. This cave may be the source of the lake. But when I looked inside, I found it was dark and I couldn't see anything.

I suddenly thought, is there a legendary black snake in here? But it's foolish to laugh at your own ideas in the blink of an eye.

Although I like horror novels myself, I am always skeptical about these supernatural things.

I have been feeling the embrace of nature in that place until dark. After eating in the restaurant, it was completely dark. I looked at my watch. It was already eight o'clock.

I think it's time to return to my city.

So I picked up my man's satchel and walked out of the restaurant.

Before I go back, I want to take another look at Blackwater Lake and say goodbye.

But the return bus is about to leave, and I have no time to run to the lake.

So I sat on the wooden chair by the roadside, facing the direction of Heishui Lake.

It may be because it is dark and there are few pedestrians around.

I took out my beloved Guanbo brand monocular telescope from my small satchel and looked at Blackwater Lake.

Blackwater Lake seems to be right in front of my eyes, and the lake reflects the darkness around it.

I feel standing by the lake again.

While I was having fun, a foreign object appeared in my constantly moving telescope.

I looked intently and gasped. There is a huge black snake sticking out of the lake. Its body is bent, its mouth is open and it has three green eyes on its head.

The legend of Blackwater Lake suddenly appeared in my mind. Looking at the monster in front of me, I can't help shivering.

I put down my telescope and my legs were a little weak. I told myself it was an illusion.

The black snake has returned to the world!

The black snake has returned to the world!

This sentence has been popping up in my confused head and my heart is pounding. I grabbed my wrist and told myself to return immediately.

So I dragged my stiff legs to the bus stop.

On the bus, sitting in a chair, warmth and familiarity came back.

I sat in my seat, lost in thought, thinking about what I had just seen, suspecting that I had just had a dream.

However, how can the lake in the barbecue shop be out of stock? Did the black snake really eat the fresh lake in the lake?

I think like this, as if I were in a hypnotic state and fell asleep unconsciously. In my dream, I saw a mass of black gas floating in the air.

There are three green lights in the black gas, which means that the eyes of the black snake are surrounded by several golden lights.

I heard a scream.

Then they all fell into the bottom of the lake.

Standing by the lake are three magicians with sage like type.

After returning to the city, I started to go to work, but I will never forget what I saw that night.

This seems to be the background music of my life. I checked my telescope carefully after I got home, and there was nothing wrong with the lens.

I can't find any explanation for the appearance of this three-eyed monster, which can only be attributed to my imagination.

It was not until I received a postcard from a friend my age that things became clear.

I was resting at home that day when someone knocked at the door. I opened the door and saw a little brother in a green suit. I didn't know he was a postman until I saw an email in his hand.

"This is your mail." The other party said politely. I finished writing the email with a smile.

When I got back to my room, I couldn't wait to open the email. There was a greeting letter from my photographer friend.

There are also some photos taken during the trip.

Their scenery is so familiar, it's Blackwater Lake!

The moment I picked up the photo of the three-eyed black snake statue, I got it, I got it all!

This is the huge black snake that I saw that night. Because of the monocular telescope, the sense of distance disappeared, and the distant statue overlapped with the lake.

The answer is that simple. I couldn't help knocking on my wooden fish head.

The fear brought by the trip to Blackwater Lake collapsed. I sat in a chair and felt very calm, so I couldn't help laughing.
