    I met the monk about three hours ago. I was carrying two buckets of water home when he came up to me, thirsty. Seeing his kind face, I couldn't help but joke, "One monk carries water, two monks share the burden, three monks have no water to drink... Master! Are you sure you're alone?" "Young benefactor, aren't you alone?" The monk countered. "No!" I shook my head. "Well, I'm alone right now, but I have a mother and an older brother at home." "And your sister?" "Sister? You mean...?" "Your biological sister from the same mother!" "No! I only have one brother!" The monk smiled. "Are you sure?" I nodded without hesitation. "I'm absolutely sure!" "You do have a sister!" "Sister?!" My mind went blank. I racked my brains but couldn't recall anything about a 'sister'! Was this monk lying to me? "Master! You mean I have a long-lost sister?" I said with a smile. "But I don't remember her at all! You're not making this up just to trick me into drinking water, are you?!" "A monk doesn't lie..." The monk shook his head. "She's always been by your side and hasn't left!" I suddenly felt that the monk's words were becoming increasingly dubious, so I didn't want to waste any more time. "Monk! Aren't you thirsty and want some water?" I frowned. "Then what will you use to hold the water?" The monk spread his hands out and then clasped them together to form a basin shape. "I'll use my hands!" "They say a clever head doesn't grow hair... Monk! You're quite clever!" Inspired by the monk's action, I also clasped my hands together to hold water for him to drink. "Ah! The water is so sweet!" The monk exclaimed as he drank several handfuls of water in a row! He wanted more, but my bucket wasn't very big, and my 'hand basin' kept leaking. To cut my losses, I covered the bucket with my hand: "Master! There's only half a bucket of water left. Can you bear to let me go back and get scolded?" The monk smiled and pointed to another bucket: "Then I'll drink from the other one." "Master, are you taking advantage of my young age?" I quickly covered the other bucket as well. "Amitabha! Monks never bully the weak!" The monk shook his head. "Alright! Then this humble monk will perform a little show for you!" "Haha, Master!" I couldn't help but laugh: "Are you breaking a boulder on your chest, or performing Iron Head Kung Fu?!" The monk shook his head: "Neither!" "Then it's Vajra Leg?!" "Guess?" "Um, Master! I'm really busy!" I pointed down the mountain. "I also fetched water from the stream below. You should go there; it's enough for you to drink your fill, and you can even take some home!" Seeing that the monk was unmoved and had no intention of leaving, I had no choice but to give him a few more handfuls of water. "Monk, my mom's very fierce. There's only this much water left, and I'll definitely get scolded when I get back, so... I can only give you a few more handfuls. Drink this and leave quickly!" The monk smiled and nodded, "Young benefactor, you have a kind heart; good deeds are rewarded!" Just as I reached into the bucket to scoop water for the monk, a strange phenomenon appeared. I could see images of my family's past reflected in the water, and they were incredibly clear. ???

I glanced at the woman whose arm the ghost woman was tightly gripping. "Our man!" The woman and the ghost answered in unison. "You can see him?" I asked the woman curiously. "I can't!" The woman shook her head. "But I can smell his scent!" "Scent... Scent?!" "The unique scent of a stinky man!" "Uncle, she said you smell!" I looked at the uncle with a mischievous grin. "Am I smelly?" The uncle pointed at the corpse on the ground. "But even if I smell bad, I'm not as smelly as that guy's body!" "A man who doesn't smell bad isn't a man!"
