I also went to their new book launch event and got the autographs of these 5 authors. They collect some horror stories and organize them for everyone. Actually, they have a website which is called “Black Story”. I hope that if you are interested, you can go to their website or buy books to support them.

我今天要和大家分享的書叫《黑色怪譚》。這本書有5位作者。他們是5位才華橫溢的台灣年輕人。我還去了他們的新書發布會，拿到了這5位作者的親筆簽名。他們蒐集了一些恐怖故事，並把這些故事組織起來。實際上，他們有一個名為「黑色酒吧」的網站。我希望如果你有興趣，你可以去他們的網站瀏覽或買書來支持他們。這些故事也與台灣的生活和文化有關。雖然叫恐怖故事，但也有濃濃的台灣風情，有的故事也很搞笑，超級可愛。

There are many stories in this book. I would choose some of them for you today: The first story is about a famous Feng Shui master in Taiwan: 林半仙's story. 林半仙 was a famous Feng Shui master in Southern Taiwan. Feng Shui in Taiwanese is called 風水. One day, he arrived at a location, 高雄林園, he saw some farmers eating in the garden. When they saw 林半仙, they said: "Sir, let’s eat together. We are very poor. There is nothing good to share. This bowl of sweet potatoes soup, I hope you would like it".

這本書裡有很多故事。今天給大家選幾個： 第一個故事是台灣著名的風水師「林半仙」的故事。林半仙是南台灣著名的風水大師。Feng Shui在台語被稱為「風水」。一天，他來到了高雄林園，他看到一些農民在田園邊吃飯。農民們一見林半仙，便道：「先生，一起吃飯吧!我們很窮。沒什麼好分享的。這碗番薯湯，希望你喜歡。」

林半仙 was very moved when he heard this. He found that there was no water source in the countryside, so he wanted to repay these farmers. He swung his sword in the air, and then he inserted the sword into a higher place on the edge of the field. The water spurted out of the soil, and 林半仙 said to everyone: "Run, just run, everyone, and the water will go as far as you run". As everyone heard it, they ran around for several kilometres, until they couldn’t walk anymore. Since then, the field was developed because of the irrigation of water. To thank 林半仙, the farmers also built a temple to worship him.

林半仙聽了，很是感動。他發現農村沒有水源，就想回報這些農民。他在空中揮舞著劍，然後將劍插入到了田場地勢較高的地方。水從土中噴湧而出，林半仙對大家說：「快跑，快跑，大家跑
