Witchcraft
Since ancient times, witchcraft has been common, and it is difficult to cut off its roots. It is like a wildfire that burns inexhaustibly, and the spring breeze blows and grows.
In the first year of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty (92 BC), the puppet witch Gu cases that shocked the time occurred in the Han Palace of Chang'an, which were caused by a Jingshi hero named Zhu Anshi, and also implicated the prime minister of the court, Gongsun He and his son, and finally even the prince of Emperor Wu, the prince of Liu, was unjustly killed.
The first witch case was caused by Gongsun He himself. Gongsun He was the prime minister of the court at that time, and he was very trusted by Emperor Wu, and his son Gongsun Jingsheng was also a servant in the court, and the father and son were all over the place. It's a pity that Gongsun Jingsheng's private life was disorderly, and he embezzled more than 19 million military funds without permission, so he was imprisoned in Chang'an Imperial Prison.
At that time, Zhu Anshi, the main culprit in another important case, was on the run, and Emperor Wu ordered that he must be arrested. Gongsun He loved his son and assured Emperor Wu that he would arrest Zhu Anshi, but demanded the release of his son Gongsun Jingsheng. His request was approved by Emperor Wu, but it angered Zhu Anshi. After Zhu Anshi was arrested, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Chen sued Gongsun Jingsheng for adultery with Emperor Wu's daughter Princess Yangshi, and Gongsun Jingsheng cursed Emperor Wu's early death in the temple, and buried puppets as witches on the road that Emperor Wu often passed by, in order to promote Emperor Wu's early death. These things were unwarranted, at that time, Emperor Wu was in his old age, and he was worried about death every day, he believed it to be true, and killed the prime minister Sun He's father and son and Princess Yangshi.
The second witch case was caused by Jiang Chong, a close minister of Emperor Wu. Jiang Chong served as a public security and security guard in the court, and was very trusted by Emperor Wu. He dealt with the security incident in the palace, and even the prince did not take it seriously, so he offended the prince, Jiang Chong was not a selfless person, he was worried that the prince would not let him go once he ascended the throne of the emperor, and it happened that Gongsun He's father and son harmed Emperor Wu for Gu in the palace, Jiang Chong took this opportunity, it is said that the Gu qi in the palace is very heavy, affecting the life safety of Emperor Wu, Emperor Wu believed it was true, and handed over this matter to Jiang Chong to deal with, Jiang Chong really dug out a pair of puppet witch Gu in the tunnel in the palace of Emperor Wu, and falsely accused the prince of harming Emperor Wu, Urging Emperor Wu to die early. In order to protect himself, the prince killed Jiang Chong and ran away, and the people in the palace said that the prince wanted to rebel, and he fled after killing Jiang Chong. Later, the crown prince was also forced to commit suicide.
There were things like Gu in ancient society, but the above two things were fake. Judging from the two witchcraft cases that occurred in the Han Dynasty, we can see that Gu poisoning people has a long history in Chinese society.
There was also an invisible turmoil in the court of the Sui Dynasty. Sui Dynasty general Dugu Hui's home, there is a girl named Xu Ani, has the habit of worshipping cat ghosts, every night in the middle of the night, she secretly gets up, prepares offerings and burns incense to worship the cat ghosts, (the child belongs to the mouse, the child worships the cat, implying that the rat sacrifices the cat), the more she worships, the more spiritual, the cat ghost often moves other people's belongings to her.
When Dugu Wai was not an official, he was idle at home and had a habit of drinking, and his wife refused to give money to buy wine, so Dugu Wai had to ask Xu Ani for wine. Arnie replied, "There is no money to buy alcohol." Dugu said: "Why don't you ask the cat ghost to go to Yue Gong's house to get money to buy wine?" Ani had to pray secretly, and in less than an hour, the money for buying wine was delivered, and Dugu Yu kept asking Ani to take money from the cat ghost to buy wine.
After Dugu became an official because of his relatives, one day he said to Xu Ani in the garden: "You called the cat ghost to say to Queen Dugu (Dugu's half-sister): My family has no money, please ask the queen to give me money often." Ani prayed to the cat ghost according to his words, and the cat ghost really went to the Sui Palace and fetched things from Queen Dugu.
Xu Ani once arranged a table in an empty room in the palace, and placed a pot of fragrant porridge and a spoon on the table, and knocked the porridge basin with the spoon and said, "Miss Mao, come and eat porridge." But you can't live in the palace. She prostrated herself in prayer and muttered a word, and in a short time her face turned pale, and her limbs seemed to be led by a ghost, and she said, "The cat ghost has arrived." ”
This matter was referred to Emperor Wen of Sui (589-604); Emperor Wen said: This is a kind of monster, ordered Xu Ani to be driven away, and soon Dugu Hui was executed, and his younger brother begged Emperor Wen to remove the official as a concubine, and the cat ghost also disappeared (see Sui Shu Dugu Hui Biography).
The fact that people are harming people is often reported to the court in criminal cases. In the eighth year of Song Renzong's Qingli (1048 AD), Renzong looked through the criminal case of the imperial court on Fujian Road (Province) one day, and found that people often let Gu harm people, and Renzong was very sad. Again in criminal cases. Renzong informed the close officials that Lin Shiyuan's prescription for curing Gu could be handed over to the imperial physician in the palace for review, and together with the secret prescription for curing Gu collected by the imperial doctors, it would be compiled into a compilation, printed as a special book, distributed to various roads, and forwarded to the people in various places for use (see Volume 49 of the Renewal of the Zhitong Jian).
The Song Dynasty was very strict with the management of people who had a history of releasing Gu and raising Gu. In the second year of Taizu Qiande (9614), he ordered that 326 families of Gu cultivators in Yongzhou (Lingling County, Hunan Province) be moved to the local poor countryside and that they were not allowed to enter the city (ibid., vol. 4).
In addition to the different types of Gu, there is also a certain period of time. If a person who is in the Gu poison is in a certain period of time, the Gu poison will attack, and after the attack, there is an antidote that can be lifted, and if it exceeds a certain period, there is no cure.
During the orthodoxy of Yingzong of the Ming Dynasty (1436-1449), Zhou Li, a businessman in Wujiang County, Jiangsu Province, was doing business abroad since he was a child, and one year he went to Si'en Mansion in Guangxi Province, and accidentally met a middle-aged widow surnamed Chen.
When people reach middle age, when they think of their youth, they will also have the idea of returning to their roots, and his wife can't persuade him, so he has to go, and asks his son to go back to Wujiang's hometown with his father to take a look
said, "If your father is willing to come back, he will solve the Gu for him." Zhou Li's father and son returned to their hometown of Wujiang, less than a year later, Zhou Li's Gu attack, he had to drink a bucket of water every day, and his stomach was as big as a bucket, and his son said to his father:
"Dad! Let's go back to Guangxi! ”
"I miss your mother too, but I have this strange disease and can't walk!"
"Dad, I'll cure your disease."
"You're not a doctor, how can you heal?"
His son followed the method his mother taught him to cure his father's Gu disease, and Zhou Li vomited a live crucian carp in his stomach, which was the Gu that his wife had given him.
Xingguo County, Jiangxi Province, during the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty (1821-1850), there was a criminal case against Gu. Zhao Ruzhan, a newly relocated Hakka family, was accused by five villagers, including Zeng Qizhou, of letting Gu harm people, and the process of this case is as follows:
Zhao Ruzhan moved from Changting, Fujian Province to Xingguo County, Jiangxi Province, and opened an oil shop as a sole proprietorship, and hired five people, including Zeng Qizhou, to squeeze oil, and in addition to paying them wages, and providing them with lunch. After having lunch on the first day of work, Zeng Qizhou and the other five people felt a lot of pain in their stomachs and immediately went home to ask a doctor for treatment. The doctor thought that they were suffering from ordinary abdominal pain, and prescribed medicine, but the stomach still hurt to death, and the body was losing weight day by day. Three other passers-by passed by Zhao's store and bought peaches from his shopkeeper to eat, and the three of them also had stomach aches after eating them.
Zeng Qizhou and Wu Laoliu, a helper in Zhao's shop, had money exchanges, Wu Laoliu went to Zeng's house one day to ask him for the money he borrowed, Zeng Qizhou said to Wu Laoliu: "If you cure my illness, I will return the money I borrowed from you, if my illness is not cured, or even die, your money will not be repaid." ”
"Your illness is only known as Yang Lao Liu's doctor. Yang Lao Liu was brought by the boss (referring to Zhao Ruzhan) from Changting, and he has an antidote that can cure your illness. In order to recover the loan, Wu Lao Liu told Zeng Qizhou the secret, and asked Wu Lao Liu to ask Yang Lao Liu to give medicine to treat the disease, and gave him a sum of money, Yang Lao Liu had to secretly hand over the antidote to Wu Lao Liu, Zeng Qi took the antidote on Friday, and it didn't take long to release the Gu poison under the Zhao family from the stool, and the Gu under the solution was half an inch long, white, and the mouth of the Gu was like a needle, and the color was green.
Zeng Qizhou's illness took a slight turn for the better, and he couldn't wait to accuse Zhao Ruzhan of harming people to the main hall of Xingguo County, and the matter was only made public. The local doctor, Chen Xiqing, cured the Gu poison of Zeng Qizhou and the other eight people, and the Gu in the stomachs of the eight of them was released from the stool.
After the truth of this Gu release case was revealed, Wu Lao Liu and Yang Lao Liu also said that Zhao Ru supported the Gu, there were three kinds of melon Gu, snake Gu and insect Gu. The melon Gu is a melon worm, shaped like a melon and the size of a date. The shape of the snake Gu is like a snake. Worm Gu is smaller than snakes and has a lot of them. The Gu poison in Zeng Qizhou and the other eight people was the insect Gu raised by the Zhao family, which was caused by a kind of grass "chicken spine firewood" collected from aquatic plants.
Chen Xiqing, a doctor in Xingguo County, was poisoned in Changting County, Fujian Province when he was young, and a monk cured him. Chen Xiqing used the pill he himself used to treat other people suffering from Gu. The Gu poison of Zeng Qizhou and the other eight people was also cured with this pill. The contents of the Danfang are: Pulsatilla, one-legged lotus, and bone-piercing nitrate are boiled with water wine and chicken. The croton is then mashed and steamed in wine to make pills. After taking the first medicine, he would faint with abdominal pain, and then after taking the second pill, Gu would be killed in the abdomen and relieved.
