In the early 80s, deep in an alley in Repulse Bay, Hong Kong, a simple small shed made of wooden sticks and sundries, in the shed was messily piled up with all kinds of sundries, and a young woman was lying in the middle of the sundries!

The woman is about twenty years old, her hair is entangled one by one, her face is covered with oil, and she can't see her appearance clearly, and her body is wrapped in a black shirt, but under the clothes, her body is less than 100 pounds and her body is frail, and it can be clearly seen that she has a big belly.

A long period of malnutrition and the harsh environment in which she is in have made a woman's body extremely weak!

But the woman didn't seem to feel anything, with blank eyes, she watched a cockroach crawl gracefully in front of her, and her face wanted to express some emotion, but she didn't express anything!

If someone walks forward and looks closely, they will find that the woman's eyes are scattered and her expression is stagnant, which seems to be a symptom of some kind of mental illness or mental retardation.

More than ten meters away is a place where residents dump domestic garbage, bursts of foul smell evaporate and float around, the oil seeping out of the garbage flows along the ground to the sewer mouth next to it, and under the illumination of the street lamp, the ground is printed into a bizarre pattern!

Pedestrians who pass by here are all far away, and even the residents who dump garbage come here and throw the garbage from a distance with their mouths and noses covered, not wanting to approach the place at all.

However, the food street a few hundred meters away is a different scene, with the aroma of various delicacies wafting everywhere, and the bustling night market is full of people, as if it is the Hong Kong citizens who are spending the night indulging in a carnival!

In the distance, there are high-rise buildings and villas, pedestrians in suits and leather shoes greet each other elegantly with kind expressions, and people in bright clothes are holding children's hands and walking under the bright neon lights after they have eaten and drunk, telling a beautiful fairy tale!

Bustling street markets and garbage dumps form two worlds, heaven on one side and hell on the other.

Just ask how far heaven is from hell, about 600 meters!

......

As the night deepened, a layer of black clouds piled up in the sky, and the lights of thousands of homes gradually went out, and the pedestrians who were full of food and drink began to leave the market and hurried towards their homes!

There was a muffled thunderclap, and the reclining woman suddenly whispered, covering her abdomen with her hands and a painful expression on her face, but there was a hint of clarity in her eyes!

Then the woman whispered again, and her thin body writhed unnaturally, as if it was time to give birth.

As the thunder continued to explode, the rain poured down, and the rain dripped down from the roof of the simple shed that had been built, wetting the woman's clothes and creating a shallow puddle in front of her!

And the woman's painful expression appeared from time to time, holding her belly and rolling on the ground, and the sound of screams pierced the silent night sky.

But his eyes are becoming clearer and clearer, as if he is recalling his past and the situation at this time......

The screams lasted for more than half an hour, and the woman, who was already weak, was even more at the last moment of her life, and the blood slowly flowed out of her lower body and merged into the rain under her!

And as this pain continued, and the stimulation of her spirit, the woman had fully sobered up, her face showed a trace of sadness, and she pulled a dirty coat from her side and padded it under her, holding her abdomen with both hands and pushing down while screaming.

But in her eyes, there was a light of tenderness and holiness!

"Ah...... Yes...... Ah......h

The screams are particularly thrilling in the rainy night!

"Ah......" After a heart-rending scream, the woman gave birth to a little baby boy.

However, the baby's whole body is blue-gray, and his hands and feet are cold and he doesn't move, and it looks like a dead baby.

The woman came back to her senses in the severe pain, and saw that the baby was not breathing or moving, and the tears in her eyes fell down!

But at this moment, a bolt of lightning slashed across the sky, like a god descending from earth on thunder, and with a whoa, the loud cry of a baby pierced the night sky.

A fresh life falling from the sky also represents the beginning of a legend......

"I'm ...... What's going on?" Qu Ran could sense the first thought of the outside world, but he cursed in his heart, and then he felt the pouring rain, the moaning and crying woman, and the foul smell coming from him.

At this time, Qu Ran couldn't open his eyes, and his soul didn't merge with the newborn body!

But from the vague feeling that my soul seems to be reborn in a baby, I can't help but sigh secretly in my heart that rebirth really exists! And I was so lucky!

However, if Qu Ran could open his eyes and look at the scene around him, I am afraid that he would not feel lucky.

......

At this moment, a behemoth flew over the rain curtain at an extremely fast speed, stopped on a low wall, and retracted a pair of wings more than three meters long, which turned out to be a black eagle half a man high!

The eagle's whole body is pitch black, but there is a white hair on its head, and the cold eagle eyes look at the woman and the baby not far away, revealing a hint of anthropomorphic joy, but seeing the weak woman and the crying baby, I can't help but be slightly stunned.

Seeing the baby crying, the weak woman showed a trace of tenderness, stretched out her hand with difficulty and groped from the side, and found a broken glass for a long time, and her blood-stained right hand picked up the glass and cut the child's umbilical cord, and then struggled to hold the baby in her arms, and the tears in her eyes slowly fell.

"Child, mom, I'm sorry for you......" The woman had already remembered her life experience, but she didn't know that in her child's body, there was an eighteen-year-old young man's soul, crying and holding the baby in her arms!

Then, with a mixture of pampering and despair in her eyes, the woman slowly stretched out her hand to strangle the child's neck, and at the same time pressed her hands hard, crying, "Child, mother can't bear to leave you alone in the world, let's go to heaven to see your father together, okay?"

"Uh, what's the situation? This mad woman is going to strangle her own child, I'm just being reborn and I'm going to die?" Qu Ran vaguely felt his neck being tightened, and couldn't help but curse in his heart, "What are you doing this crazy woman? This is your own child...... Ah, of course, it's not quite a biological child!"

Naturally, the woman can't hear Quran's inner narration, the strength in her hands is getting stronger and stronger, and the hand holding the baby's neck is getting tighter and tighter!

But Qu Ran couldn't do anything to resist, only felt his breathing getting tighter and tighter, and the baby's instinctive cry sounded in his ears......

The life of a newborn child is extremely fragile, how can it withstand such a pinch from an adult?

Although the woman's body is weak and her strength is limited, she is an adult after all, and under the woman's fierce pinching, the baby struggles weaker and weaker, and her crying becomes smaller and smaller!

The eagle on the low wall also saw the woman choking the baby's neck, his eyes showed a trace of pity and helplessness, his wings opened but instantly retracted, and he looked at the sewer beside the woman in a daze.

It turned out that as the child's cry weakened, a mouse crawled up from the mouth of the sewer not far away, and his bean-sized eyes scanned the surroundings in confusion, regardless of the pouring rain, and hurriedly crawled towards the child and the woman!

And behind the rats, one by one the rats crawled out of the sewer mouth, following the rats in front and running towards the children!

Behind the mouse were small snakes of different colors with the thickness of their fingers, and the small snakes were like rats, swimming towards the child with blank expressions......

The rat at the head rushed to the woman's side, squeaked and screamed, and bit the woman's arm without fear but with a blank look!

Then, the rats behind him also arrived, and they all gathered around the woman, screaming at the woman and biting her arm.

The little snake behind the mouse swam to the woman's side faster, wrapped its slender snake body around the woman's arm, and snatched the baby out of the woman's hand!

Then pull the baby out of the reach of the woman, hiss around the child, and the rats no longer entangle with the woman, and rush to the child, forming a circle to protect the child.

Qu Ran naturally couldn't see this, he could only hear the sound of the basilik screaming, and then felt the strength on his neck loosen......

Snakes and mice, which were originally natural enemies, were entangled and peaceful at this time as if they hadn't discovered each other, and it really tasted like a nest of snakes and rats!

"Give back my child, return my child......" The woman was naturally afraid of snakes and rats, and struggled to get the baby back, but her body was so weak that she couldn't move, and she could only stretch out her hands and roar eagerly!

And the baby is still instinctively crying, I don't know if it's hungry or afraid?

At this time, the woman became even weaker, and seeing that she could not reach the child, the tears that had already dried up her crying welled up again, muttering something in her mouth, and scratching crooked Chinese characters on the ground with her blood-stained fingers......

At this moment, a passenger and cargo van appeared in the rain curtain, and the eagle on the low wall glanced at the van, thought for two seconds, and its wings shook violently!

At the same time, the van slammed to a halt and came to a slam stop on the spot as if it had hit something, and the sound of yelling and cursing instantly rang out in the car!

"Damn, you old thing, you suddenly stopped without saying hello?"

"Uncle Kun, I didn't stop," a slightly older voice sounded, "It looks like I hit something!"

"Hit a fart, you old thing" a man in his thirties who looked like a boss, cursed and got out of the passenger seat, came to the van and said angrily, "What else is there here besides heavy rain?"

Then a lean man in his forties got out of the driver's seat, holding up an umbrella but not giving himself a beating, as if flattering the boss's head, holding a flashlight in front of the van, seeing that there was a mark of being hit in front of the car, but he didn't see anything, he couldn't help but hesitate a little, "Uncle Kun, I hit something just now, look here...... Hey, it's like a child crying?"

"Well, I heard that too, let's go over and have a look......" The boss-looking man commanded casually, suddenly turned to the van and said, "You all stay in the car!"

Hearing the boss's words, the heads of four seven or eight-year-old children poked out of the car window, rubbing their heads, while looking into the dark distance with blank and innocent eyes, but they didn't see anything.

"I rely on ......" The thin man held an umbrella for the boss, and walked quickly to the shed in the depths of the alley, and the flashlight shone on the child surrounded by snakes and rats, and the woman who was curled up in a coma, and instantly cursed, and the flashlight almost fell to the ground!

Even Uncle Kun, who looked like the boss, unconsciously stepped back, muttering something to himself.

Dirty and messy simple wooden sheds, frail women huddled up, snakes and rats scurrying around, delicate babies and pouring rain contrast......

These two people have been in the rivers and lakes for many years, and they can be regarded as ruthless people, but when have they ever seen such a scene in front of them!

However, the boss calmed down first, looked at the child and the woman, and said, "Lao Ding, how about going over and seeing the child?"

The lean man known as Lao Ding swallowed his saliva with difficulty, but he didn't dare to refuse, handed the umbrella to Uncle Kun, and stepped forward with a flashlight!

He drove the snake and mouse away, looked at the baby and the woman carefully, and turned back to the boss and shouted, "Uncle Kun, this woman has been weakened and unconscious, I'm afraid she won't survive tonight, the child is fine, very delicate, it should be able to sell for a good price...... Hey, what is this?

From the moment the car stopped to the two men walking, Qu Ran felt it, but now he can't even break his eyes, and he can't even take care of himself, where is there any way? When he heard the man named Lao Ding say that he wanted to sell himself, he instantly scolded in his heart......

"Leave that woman alone, bring the child over!" Uncle Kun looked a few meters away, Lao Ding half-squatted down to inspect the woman, roared impatiently, and turned around and walked towards the van!

Lao Ding glanced at the words written by the woman, waved a flashlight to drive the snakes and rats away, and hurriedly picked up the baby, more than a dozen thin snakes and more mice screamed and rushed towards Lao Ding, but under the light of the flashlight, they didn't dare to approach!

It wasn't until Lao Ding took the child away that the eyes of the snake and the mouse gradually became clearer, and they discovered each other's existence, and the snake rushed towards the mouse, and the mouse squeaked and scattered away......

"Pretty good boy...... And it's a baby boy, it will definitely be sold for a good price!" Uncle Kun looked at the baby and got into the car, and when he heard Lao Ding muttering something behind him, he turned his head and scolded, "Lao Ding, what are you muttering?"

"Oh, oh......" Lao Ding reacted and hurriedly replied, "I just saw three words written in front of that woman, and I was thinking what that meant?"

"What's the word?' 'No money' or 'give it to you'?he...... Uncle Kun laughed as he pretended to be humorous!

"It is written with the three words 'Yangzhou wood'!"

"What the hell do you know how to read?" I haven't heard of it!" Uncle Kun sat in the passenger seat of the van and scolded casually.

Qu Ran silently thought about the things about the 'state pastor' in history, and secretly said, "Yangzhou Mu is the highest official in Yangzhou!" In ancient times, the chief of Kyushu was the 'pastor', and the 'pastor' was the meaning of managing the people...... What was the purpose of that mad woman writing these words?"

"I really can't recognize a few words!" I only heard Lao Ding say with some flattery, "However, my ancestors are from Yangzhou, and they came to Hong Kong because of the war in the early years......"

", Lao Tzu listens to your nonsense, hand over the baby to a little cub, and drive away quickly!" Uncle Kun scolded again with a snort!

Lao Ding didn't dare to slack off, opened the door of the van, handed the baby into the hands of a seven or eight-year-old girl, and shouted, "Xiaohong, you come and hold ......"

The little girl named Xiaohong took the baby with a hint of tenderness flashing in her eyes, and thought about taking off her coat and wrapping the baby in her arms!

Waiting for the van to disappear into the rain, the eagle swooped up and flew straight to the simple wooden shed 100 meters away, but just a few meters away from the wooden shed, the volley turned into a human shape, and landed lightly outside the wooden shed.

This person was in his thirties, wearing a dark purple robe, with long silver hair up to his waist, and was held by a purple crown, he walked into the simple wooden shed lightly, squatted down and looked at the weak woman, and whispered, "Yangzhou Mu family...... Hehe, it's getting more and more interesting!"

Then, the person who came took out a pill from his waist, stripped off his wax clothes, and stuffed the pill into the woman's mouth, his ears pricked up as if he sensed something, and straightened up with a light smile!

His arms flew backwards slowly, turning over in the air, turning into a bald eagle again, and his wings spread out into the rain
