The Myth of Lake Ghost

"Are you sure what you said,Apek?"

"I swear to Shang di, it's true!"

One of the tables of Fengjian's Teahouse has a great meeting among the elderly men. Although the Teahouse was not packed like the peak hours,their voice really interrupted the evening peace of surroundings. The shop owner arrived and served their tea with stern expression on her face.

"Can you tune down your voice,sir?You scared few customers away,Apek and Chong!"

"Come on,Bo.You heard the news about-"

"This is not a radio podcast studio you all used!So,tune down your voice or one week banned from coming to my teahouse" Madam Bo firmly warned the old men.

The old men finally tune down their voices embarrassedly.The old lady left their table pissed,but her expression changes to happy as two young Chinese village guys who wear their straw hats arrive.

"Kung Lao,Raiden.I'm glad to see you again" said Madam Bo while bring the guys to their table.

"Of course,Madam Bo.Why we never missed your cooking and tea at your place,Madam Bo?" Said Kung Lao as sits on the chair.

"I hope you pay this time,Kung Lao..." Madam Bo gave Kung Lao a sharp stare before turning her head to Raiden.

"We really missed our life at Fengjian, Madam Bo. Although we still have smartphones to communicate with you,the aura of Fengjian always sticks to my memories" said Raiden softly.

"Very wise words,Raiden. What can ge6t for you both?" Madam Bo took her small notebook from her pocket & began to write their order.

"I don't know what to choose today.I would choose-"

Before Kung Lao could open the menu,Raiden immediately said what food he ordered.

"A teapot set of green tea,two bowls of rice,Wonton soup and Kung Pao Chicken.Don't forget a bowl of vanilla ice cream"

"Noted.I hope this time Kung Lao would pay this time" said Madam Bo before she left the table.

Kung Lao pissed and turned to Raiden.Raiden shrugs and took a newspaper he bought on the way to Teahouse to read.

As Kung Lao pulled out his smartphone to play a game,he overheard the elderly men who sit behind both of Raiden and Kung Lao 's table.He secretly left the table and joined the old men's table.

"What's on the news,uncle?"

"Do you have any tables to sit?" Apek rudely replied because he did not turned his head around.

"Kung Lao,is that you?" Chong realized who is that young man with short ponytail.

Chong stood up from his seat and hugged Kung Lao.The old man shows one of the empty chairs for Kung Lao to sit.

"Long time no see,ah boy. How were your parents?Where have you been for a very long time?" Asked Chong

"They're just fine including my cousin. Raiden and I were back from Wushi Academy roughly two days ago." Replied Kung Lao.

"Talk about big muscles you had.You and your friend can fight lake monster easily" said Chong as he really means it.

"Lake monster? Which lake?" Kung Lao eagers.

"The story began around a week ago...Few kids and adults either eye witness or almost being abducted by the lake monster.They described it having long wet hair and multiple sets of glowing eyes... What I remembered yesterday...it is located at the big lake near the mountains" Apek explained in summary.
