On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival on the fifth day of the fifth month of the lunar calendar in 1995, the sky in Qianxi Village, a small township in this small city of Chizhou, was just slightly bright, and in the midst of several strings of whips and a burst of mourning, a baby girl was born in a family surnamed Feng in the west of Qianxi Village. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info the whip and cry at that time came from the Li family, a neighbor of the Feng family, because the old man of the Li family passed away. The cry of the birth of the Feng family's hairy child responded to the cry of the old man of the Li family who passed away (the younger generations), and it was indeed a happy family and a mournful family.

Because the baby girl was born at the dawn of the day, the family took the name - Chu Xiao. Chu Xiao was born with a birthmark that was different from ordinary people, this birthmark is located in the palm of Chu Xiao's right palm, it is a flesh-white irregular mark the size of a mung bean, the shape is really not easy to describe with specific things, just as the shape of the clouds in the sky is difficult to correspond to the things in the world.

The birth of Chu Xiao was accompanied by the death of an old man, which was inevitably discussed in the rural areas where ideology was generally backward in the 90s. Some villagers with good deeds said behind their backs that Chu Xiao was a child with a bad fate, and at first this was just casual talk, but with the frequent strange things happening to Chu Xiao, everyone feels more and more that Chu Xiao is an unlucky person.

One day in early April 1998, a blind old fortune teller came to Qianxi Village. The old gentleman held a wooden cane in his right hand and a cloth banner painted with Zhou Yi patterns in his left hand, and he sat under an oak tree in the village. After a while, the men and women of the village gathered around with their children. Chu Xiao's mother, Wang Qing, took advantage of the lunch break to take a look at the excitement.

The blind old gentleman had a thin countenance, and his necrotic eyes were dull. I don't know if it's a rule, but the fortune teller doesn't seem to be smiling. As soon as Chu Xiao saw the fortune teller, she writhed around on her mother and wanted to go home, but her mother didn't pay attention to her, just watched the old gentleman's fortune telling. For some children, the old gentleman blurted out the future fortune of the child as long as he touched the palm of his hand, and there were also individual children, the old gentleman needed to carefully touch the face and combine the hand prints in order to slowly say the golden sentence about the child's future.

The old gentleman was busy predicting the future for the children, and an older child in the village quietly pulled Chu Xiao behind his back, and Chu Xiao cried in pain. Wang Qing didn't know what was going on because she was watching the excitement, thinking that her daughter was just impatient and wanted to go home, so she persuaded her to stay a little longer while coaxing her daughter not to cry. The old gentleman heard Chu Xiao's cry and said lightly: "The cry of the female doll inherits life and death, loud and bright." ”

When Wang Qing heard this, she secretly thought to herself what the old man meant, but the villagers on the side could not delay urging her to tell Chu Xiao's fortune. In this way, Wang Qing hugged Chu Xiao in front of the old gentleman under the stiff pull of some women.

As soon as Chu Xiao approached the blind old man, he hid in his mother's arms in fear, and refused to stretch out his hand as his mother spoke. Wang Qing saw that her usually well-behaved daughter suddenly came up so uncooperatively, and directly slapped her daughter's right arm. Chu Xiao was so frightened by her mother's momentum that she didn't dare to cry or make trouble, so she had to let her mother pull out her right arm. The old gentleman touched the palm print of Chu Xiao's right palm with his thumb as usual, and there was no big expression on his black face, but when the old gentleman's finger touched the mark on Chu Xiao's palm, his face suddenly sank, and he quickly rubbed his thumb on the mark several times. The old gentleman's wrinkled face seemed to have something invisible rising, he tried to feel Chu Xiao's face with his hands, Chu Xiao was so frightened that he cried, and the old gentleman laughed dryly and withdrew his hands.

Wang Qing saw that the old gentleman's face was not quite right, and hurriedly asked him carefully: "Old gentleman, what's wrong?"

The old gentleman slowly stood up from the ground with a cane and sighed: "Broken clouds cover the moon, hazy, too hazy." I've never seen such a palmistry after decades of life, there are several forks at the front of the fate line, and the boundary between the fate line and the wisdom line is just covered by the imprint, as if the fate line stops at the wisdom line and seems to extend out, in short, palmistry is very strange. After speaking, the old gentleman picked up the cloth banner, turned around and walked leisurely on crutches.

The expressions of the villagers were different, but they all had the same effect - making Wang Qing, who was in doubt and worried, even more embarrassed.

During the rainy season this year, flooding in the inland areas often broadcast news on TV, and Qianxi Village also faced the danger of flooding due to the continuous rainfall, but fortunately, the sky cleared before the embankment burst.

Wang Qing took her daughter to play at Aunt Wu's house in the village, a group of women got together to chat, and Chu Xiao ran around the yard alone.

"It's not raining either, what are you doing with an umbrella?" asked Chu Xiao with a wink.

Wang Qing ignored her when she saw her daughter talking to herself, and continued to chat with other women.

"Ma Ma (aunt), Ma Ma, your grandmother is gone. Chu Xiao ran to Aunt Wu and told her that her mother-in-law was gone.

"My grandmother is paralyzed on the bed and can't move, you are so foolish!" Aunt Wu was stunned at first, thinking that her mother-in-law had never stood up after falling half a year ago, where would she go?

Wang Qing laughed like the other women, "Don't talk nonsense!" Mother hurriedly warned Chu Xiao.

"I didn't, I just saw the grandmother come out of the hut with a red umbrella, and she was smiling at me. Chu Xiao looked innocent.

Although the rain had stopped for a day, there was no sun, and the overcast sky made the day not so bright, and the countrymen had heard many supernatural events from the older generation, and at this moment individual women shivered slightly. Although everyone didn't believe the child's words, seeing that Chu Xiao was so serious, Wang Qing and the two women still accompanied Aunt Wu to the hut to see what was going on.

When everyone entered the hut, they saw the old grandmother lying on the old wooden bed looking at everyone, looking in good spirits, but she probably didn't expect that in addition to delivering food and water, someone would come to see her, and her mouth was slightly open.

Seeing this scene, Wang Qing hurriedly played a round: "The child just talks nonsense, don't answer her." ”

"Grandma was wearing a white dress just now...... Wang Qing hurriedly covered her daughter's mouth, but it was too late to hide it.

The grandmother looked at Chu Xiao suspiciously, and her mouth opened wider: "Huh?"

"It's okay! sleep on you!" Aunt Wu raised her voice. The old man's thinking is often slow, and he always doesn't understand a thing once he talks about it, so most people are used to telling the old man to shut up, but this voice scared Chu Xiao to hide in his mother's arms.

At about six o'clock in the evening of the next day, the whip sounded at Mrs. Wu's house, and it was her mother-in-law who died.

The night before the old grandmother came out of the coffin, Chu Xiao slept until midnight and suddenly lay on the bed with her eyes open and giggled. This made Wang Qing and her husband Feng Yeming very surprised, they asked Chu Xiao what he was laughing at, and Chu Xiao not only didn't hear it, but laughed even more. When the couple saw this scene, their hairs stood up unconsciously. Feng Yeming saw that his daughter was always staring at one place, so he tried to cover his daughter's eyes with his hands. Unexpectedly, Chu Xiao's laughter gradually stopped because of his father's action. The sudden silence made the dark cabin look very gloomy, Feng Yeming grabbed the hanging wire switch at the head of the bed, pressed the light bulb, and there was nothing in the dim room. The couple looked at each other and looked at their daughter, but the daughter slept very peacefully, as if everything just now was an illusion.

When the grandmother's coffin was buried the next day, Wang Qing took her daughter to kneel in front of the grandmother's grave and kowtow after several groups of people in the village bowed down.

Wang Qing kowtowed and whispered: "Grandma Wu, you want to bless my daughter well, bless her well......" Before she finished speaking, she heard her daughter call her.

"Mom, Grandma Wu is sitting there smiling at us. Chu Xiao knelt on the ground, looked up at the grave and said.

Wang Qing subconsciously looked at the grave, and the expression on her face was very solemn, because she didn't see anything at all.

"Don't (uncle) be numb, your grandmother is gone again. Before Wang Qing could react, Chu Xiao had already stood up and ran to report to the grandmother's son and daughter-in-law.

Wang Qing quickly stood up and ran to grab her daughter, she gave her daughter a mouth in annoyance: "Let you talk nonsense!"

Chu Xiao grinned and cried: "I saw ......"

"And said!" Wang Qing mentioned her daughter, put her hands around her waist and walked home.

The people of the grandmother's house in front of the grave, the villagers, the coffin bearers and the gongs and drums all looked at the distant backs of the mother and daughter in amazement.

After this incident happened, the people in the village felt more and more that Chu Xiao was strange to this child. Some people say that Chu Xiao has yin and yang eyes, but some people refute it, because it is said that people with yin and yang eyes can see ghosts, but the people who Chu Xiao sees are obviously still alive.

Chu Xiao's grandfather Feng Jianzhang felt that his granddaughter might have fallen into evil, and he heard that there was a Chen Xiangu in Dachen Village who was particularly spiritual, so he asked his daughter-in-law to take his granddaughter to take a look. After figuring out the address of Xiangu's house, Wang Qing took Chuxiao to Dachen Village after breakfast the next day, and finally arrived at Xiangu's house after walking for more than an hour.

In Guichi, the fairy aunt or the great immortal refers specifically to some old women who can understand the past and predict the future. These old women are no different from ordinary people except for their so-called special abilities. Fairy Gu often didn't have this special ability when they were young, and even they didn't know that they would become Fairy Gu. One day after the age of fifty, they will suddenly have this kind of spiritual power, some people call it "stage", and even if they have done nothing wrong, when they reach their seventies, this ability will disappear with a premonition, and some people call it "heaven".

The fairy girl led Wang Qing's mother and daughter to a hut for Guanyin Bodhisattva, Wang Qing didn't believe in the spiritual power of the fairy girl, so she deliberately said her daughter's question very simply.

"Fairy aunt, my child sleeps noisily at night, I don't know if he is evil?"

The fairy girl looked at Chu Xiao with a peaceful face, and then burned three incense sticks in front of the Bodhisattva. Purple smoke curled up in the incense burner, and the fairy girl leaned back on the bamboo chair after a big yawn, her eyes closed, and her mouth seemed to be chanting, as if she was asleep and talking about a dream she didn't understand. Wang Qing looked for the fairy Gu for the first time, and when he saw this situation, he naturally had doubts in his heart. Chu Xiao was told by her mother not to talk casually, so she had to hold her words and look at the fairy aunt and look at her mother.

"Oh, it doesn't matter," said the fairy girl, who smiled faintly, "in your village, the old woman of the family three houses away from your house has died, and when she sees that your child is cute, she plays with her and makes her laugh." When you go back at 12 o'clock at night, please put on three layers of mounting paper at the entrance of the ear door (back door), so that the old woman can walk on the road well, and the child will sleep well at night. ”

Wang Qing thought to herself that this fairy girl was really a god, and she could calculate the location relationship between Grandma Wu's house and her own family, and knew that Grandma Wu had passed away. She deliberately said that her daughter was noisy at night, and generally said that children were noisy at night meant that children were crying when they were sleeping, but the fairy aunt was not disturbed and calculated that her daughter was laughing when she slept at night. Wang Qing went back suspiciously and did what her husband did as the fairy aunt instructed, and Chu Xiao really slept peacefully that night, and Chu Xiao didn't smirk like that every night after that.

The days passed calmly for a month, and before the arrival of the second busy farming season, Wang Qing took her daughter back to her parents' house accompanied by her husband. In the evening, the three of them rushed back, Chu Xiao ran in front, and Wang Qing and her husband followed. The couple met Brother Zhang rubbing hemp rope at the door of the house in the village, so they stopped to chat with him. The three of them were chatting about the rice harvest, and Chu Xiao turned around and saw that his parents had not followed and turned back.

"Don't say goodbye," Chu Xiao ran back to his parents, because the family usually taught Chu Xiao to be polite and greet people when he saw them, so Chu Xiao kept in mind, "Grandpa Zhang".

"Why did you call me, don't call me grandpa again?" Brother Zhang asked with a smile.

Feng Yeming and his wife were also amused by their confused daughter, "Confused?" Feng Yeming touched his daughter's little head.

"I'm calling him Grandpa. Chu Xiao pointed to the corner of Brother Zhang's house.

The relaxed chat atmosphere suddenly became a little tense and even terrifying, and Chu Xiao saw his parents and Brother Zhang looking at him without blinking, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to blink.

"Oh, the old man is home alone, so we'll go back first. Feng Yeming smiled, and after speaking, he took his wife and daughter away.

The last bit of light in the evening sky was finally exhausted, and the night was already in the air, and the flames of a few kerosene lamps were emitting black smoke.

The next morning, before dawn, Zhang's house was brightly lit, and the sound of whips woke up nearby neighbors. After Feng Yeming and his wife got up, they saw the old father who got up early and walked into the house with his hands behind his back. Feng Jianzhang sighed and told them that Old Man Zhang had passed away, and he had died of sleep.

While Feng Yeming and his wife were shocked, they seemed to be worried because they thought of something. Yesterday evening, Chu Xiao called Grandpa Zhang, but Grandpa Zhang was not present at the time, which means that what Chu Xiao saw was not Grandpa Zhang himself, and no one could say what she saw. Why did the daughter see someone who was invisible to others, and the person she saw would soon die? Maybe all this was a coincidence, but who can say for sure? Wang Qing and her husband discussed it and finally decided to go to the fairy aunt to ask again.

"Fairy Gu, my daughter always sees people who others can't see, and ......" Wang Qing may have been worried about something, and immediately swallowed back the words behind "and" and continued to ask: "What's wrong with my daughter?"

"Don't worry," the fairy girl said in a calm tone, "The last time I saw your daughter, I felt that she had a sharp eye, she can indeed see things that ordinary people can't see, but don't worry, after the spring of the next year, everything will be normal when the nobles appear." ”

The fairy aunt seemed to know what Wang Qing was going to ask, and she didn't burn incense to ask the Bodhisattva to give an answer. Wang Qing didn't know if the words of the fairy aunt were ineffective, but at the moment, it seemed that he could only wait for the noble person that the fairy aunt said appeared.
