1. Translation:?
Hangzhou’s Eight-Character Bridge is said to have ghosts that confuse travelers. There is a bathhouse on the east side with hot water late at night. Someone was walking alone in the middle of the night. When it rained on the way, he opened his umbrella and suddenly saw someone hiding under his umbrella to avoid the rain. He secretly thought that this must be a "ghost". He hurriedly walked quickly, and when he reached the bridge, he forced the "ghost" into the river, ran away in a hurry, and rushed to the bathhouse. Soon, they saw a man coming in, dripping wet, and gasping for air: "I was forced into the river by the umbrella-wielding ghost and almost drowned." At this time, they talked about what they had just experienced and realized that this was a misunderstanding.
Another person was walking in the middle of the night, but there was no light and it was raining lightly. (He) heard the sound of clogs behind him. When he looked back, he saw a big head, more than two feet tall. He decided to take a closer look. When he saw "Big Head", he immediately stopped walking. He started walking and "Big Head" followed. He walked faster and "Big Head" walked faster. He panicked, suspecting that he had encountered a "ghost", and hurried into the bathhouse. Before he could close the door, "Big Head" also broke in, scaring him to the point of losing his courage. He looked under the light and found that "Big Head" was a child. The child wears a big bamboo hat to protect himself from the rain. He is also afraid of "ghosts", so he follows closely behind the adult and seeks protection from the adult. Therefore, the child stops when he stops, and the child walks when he walks. This is also a misunderstanding.
Is it worth freaking out now (for those who think) that they have seen a ghost?

A man came to me dripping wet, and gasped: "The ghost with the umbrella squeezed me into the river, and I will probably drown." What they said was wrong.
Another man was walking at night, there was no light and there was light rain. Hearing the sound of clogs behind him, he turned around and saw a big head, about two feet long. He stood and looked at it, his head also stood up. When he walked, his head also walked, and when he walked, his head also walked. The man was so frightened that he rushed to the bathhouse and walked straight in through the door. Before he could close the door, his head followed him in. This man was almost scared. He looked at it with a candle and saw that it was a small child. It was covered with a big bucket to block the rain, so he was also afraid of ghosts. , so the ears follow closely. This is also wrong.
If the four people are not white, they are believed to be real ghosts. Those who see ghosts today, should they be afraid?
p>4. Enlightenment: Most people who are afraid of "ghosts" must first be psychologically afraid. They often have preconceptions and misunderstandings. They mistakenly regard people or other things as "ghosts" and use this to spread rumors and think they are true. "Ghost". In fact, this is to scare themselves. To make these people understand that there are no "ghosts" in the world, and that "ghosts" are "phantoms" created by their own minds, we must conduct extensive investigation and research. Everything must be carefully observed and the facts must be clarified before drawing conclusions. We must not make assumptions about ghosts and create panic. Today, social reforms are complex and complicated, and ordinary people are often confused by some illusions. "Dark ghosts" make some people confused and even go astray. Be careful, people!
