When she woke up early in the morning, Meng Yuerou only felt very sleepy and tired.

I was so sleepy that I felt hard to open my eyes, and I was so tired that I felt heavy to breathe.

She wanted to get up, but her will still couldn't control her body.

"I'm sleepy...... I'm so tired......"

In desperation, she could only continue to sleep, sleep, and fall asleep.

Until, a ringing phone woke her from her sleep.

With great perseverance, she laboriously took the mobile phone next to the pillow, the ringtone had stopped, the call was from the boss, she didn't answer, and sent WeChat.

When I opened the WeChat on my mobile phone, the content was that the boss asked where he was.

With instinct, she mechanically replied to the boss's message, and she only remembered that the boss said that she would contact him when she woke up after sleeping for a while.

"What the hell am I ...... What's wrong......"

But before she could think about it, she fell asleep again.

The bedroom was quiet, only the faint sound of Meng Yuerou's breathing was faint.

In the room with the windows closed, the half-closed curtains do not move in the wind.

Obviously, only Meng Yuerou was sleeping on the bed alone, and there was no one else, but the curtain was slammed shut at this time, as if controlled by an invisible hand.

The curtains, which were not considered blackouts, actually blocked all the sunlight outside the window at this time, and no sunlight could penetrate into the house, and the bedroom instantly fell into darkness.

Squeak –

Squeak –

Squeak –

There was a screeching sound from the window, like the sound of someone rubbing the glass with their fingernails, which was extremely eerie.

But there was no one by the window.

I don't know how long it took, the mobile phone at the bedside rang again, but Meng Yuerou never woke up and was still asleep.

She didn't wake up for a while, and she fell into a deep sleep.

It was as if she had a dream, a hazy dream, but it didn't seem to be, and it didn't seem to be a dream, but a memory that she had forgotten.

She couldn't tell whether it was true or false, whether it was true or false, she only felt hazy and illusory.

In this dream, some inexplicable images appeared that made her feel both jerky and familiar......

......

One day in 1998,

In a family of four in Suicheng County on the edge of the Suixi River,

My daughter-in-law is about to become a mother in October, and I never thought that because of the imminent delivery, I was too nervous to move the fetus, and I was going to give birth today.

The family was so anxious that they didn't have time to send them to the hospital, so they had to deliver the baby at home.

But fortunately, the delivery process went smoothly, and the child was born, a girl.

However, to the midwife's surprise, the child did not cry.

The child's grandmother was also on the side and asked,

"Wang Po, why doesn't this child cry? Is there something wrong? ”

Under normal circumstances, the child must cry at birth, because this can open the baby's vocal cords and also indicate that the baby can breathe normally.

Wang Po is also an experienced person, and when she saw this, she hurriedly lifted the child's feet, turned her head down, and tapped her buttocks.

However, she was not seen crying in any case.

Outside the delivery room, the child's father, a young man who was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, kept dangling back and forth at the door, muttering all the time, "Okay! Why haven't you ...... yet?"

The man's father stood aside smoking a cigarette and didn't say a word, but he was not as anxious as his son, but looking at his expression, it was also not easy.

Originally, the mother was supposed to be sent to the obstetrics and gynecology department of the hospital to wait, but because the home is not close to the hospital and now every family is busy with farming, there is no one to take care of the mother when she goes to the hospital, so she can only stay at home and let her mother-in-law take care of her, and cook for the two men in the family by the way.

Just now he heard his wife screaming in pain, but now there was no sound, and the young man didn't care so much, so he pushed open the door and rushed in, but his father didn't stop him.

"Alas! You ......"

Rushing into the house, the young man saw his wife sleeping on the bed, and hurriedly asked,

"How's Juan'er?"

"Your daughter-in-law is fine, but she is too tired to give birth, let her rest for a while, don't disturb her."

"Hey!"

The man's mother was holding the child in her hand, and then she reacted,

"What about my child? Is it a boy or a girl? ”

"It's a girl......

The man didn't see the joyful expression on his mother's face, but with a worried face, he stepped forward to look at the baby and said,

"Hello girl! I just like girls! ”

He thought it was his mother who wanted to hold a grandson, so he wasn't very happy.

"Child, I didn't cry ......"

"What's wrong with not crying? It shows that my daughter is good! ”

"Well, you don't understand......" the woman shook her head.

"Let me see." The man gently took his child from his mother's hand, and his heart was full of love.

The woman and the princess looked at each other, and the princess shook her head.

She checked it just now, and the child has no other problems, just can't cry, and I don't know why, but fortunately, the mother and daughter are safe.

At first, the family did not know that it was abnormal for the child to be born without crying, but after the woman's explanation, everyone understood, so there was always a faint sadness on top of the joy of adding a new child to the family.

For more than half a month, the child was normal except for not crying.

They also took the child to the county hospital for examination, but there was no problem, and the doctor said that all the indicators of the child were normal.

In desperation, the family could only acquiesce to this result.

Until, when the child was full moon, at twelve o'clock in the afternoon that day, the child "Wow! He burst into tears.

This cry has been crying for a long time.

Since then, there have been no more problems.

......

One night three years later,

midnight

The girl named Meng Yuerou suddenly cried in her sleep.

The mother comforted her for a long time, thinking that the child was hungry, so she hurriedly went to the kitchen to make rice cereal and fed it to her, but she didn't eat it.

After crying for a long time, perhaps tired, she gradually fell asleep.

Then, not long after the mother and daughter fell asleep, they began to have a fever.

But it wasn't until I woke up in the morning that the parents noticed that the child was abnormal.

She was lying in her mother's arms, her little face was red, her forehead was slightly hot, not hot, but she didn't cry, it was a low-grade fever.

It is very common for children to have a fever, so Xiao Meng Yuerou's grandmother is not in a hurry.

She used a warm towel to wipe the child's body, including the forehead, back, palms and other major areas to cool down.

However, it still didn't get better, so the family hurriedly took the child to the hospital.

However, after the doctor's examination, it was found that the child had just an ordinary fever, and he went back after prescribing some medicine.

After taking the medicine, her fever improved.

Until evening, midnight,

She woke up crying again and again in her sleep.

The next morning, her mother noticed that her face was red again, her forehead was slightly hot, and the low-grade fever had started again.

After taking the medicine, his condition improved again.

Until, again midnight crying and morning fever.

The family, who noticed that something was wrong, rushed him to the hospital again.

But after a comprehensive and detailed examination, there was still no abnormality, just an ordinary low-grade fever, and even the doctor was very puzzled, so he could only prescribe medicine, and even took an injection of antibiotics.

After returning home, it is still the same, over and over again, every midnight, the child will wake up crying, and then have a fever in the morning.

"Could it be that something dirty?" The child's grandmother raised such a question.

"What's the hell out there?" Grandpa retorted.

"Then what do you say?" Grandma retorted.

"I ......" he couldn't say.

The child's parents are still young and don't understand these things, but they care about the child's condition and just want their child to get better and not suffer.

"I'm going to go to the Baoguo Temple to worship and ask for peace and blessings." And when she had said this, she went and prepared incense and candles.

"Mom, I'll take you by bike." Young men are also in a hurry.

Baoguo Temple is the most famous temple in the county, but the distance is not close, so he hurriedly rode the family's light horse, took his mother, and rushed to the temple.

When she had asked for peace and happiness, the woman hurriedly put it on the child.

"Ouch, my little liver!"

Looking at the child's red face, the woman was very distressed.

Fortunately, after wearing the peace blessing, Xiao Meng Yuerou really didn't wake up from crying that night, and her fever was much better the next day.

The family was delighted.

A week passed, just after the family was completely relaxed.

In the middle of the night, she woke up crying again.

Early in the morning, she began to have a fever again.

The hearts of the family members who had finally let go of it tightened up again.

The child's grandmother went to the temple again to ask for charms, but it had no effect.

The Meng family begged people everywhere, but no one could do anything.

In this way, more than half a month has passed, and the family has been boiled to the heart and haggard, but there is nothing to do, the only fortunate thing is that except for crying and waking up in the middle of the night and low-grade fever, the child has no other vision.

It's just drowsiness.

They all thought that they were tired of crying at night, so they would be sleepy during the day, but they didn't pay attention to it.

But it's really sad to go over and over again.

......

More than half a month later,

On the road outside Suicheng County, a person came.

One, a Taoist priest.

He was about forty or fifty years old, with a half-length beard.

Tie your hair in a bun, wear a flat Nanhua scarf on your head, and pin the top bun with a wooden hairpin.

He wore an old cyan robe that had been washed white, white cloth socks and boat-shaped cloud shoes.

It's like a fairy wind bone.

Carrying a big burden on his shoulders, it seems to be packed with a lot of things, and it should not be light, but I didn't see him feel the slightest discomfort on his back.

He came from afar, and he traveled here.

Walked to the edge of the Suixi River, squatted down and held a handful of water, washed his face, and then continued on his way.

It was getting dark.

He walked so casually, walked, walked into the county seat, and walked to an old street.

Then, I stopped at the door of a family's house.

He looked at the family's house, and suspicion flashed in his eyes.

Well?

He closed his eyes again, frowning slightly.

Hiss......

Then he opened his eyes, stepped forward, and knocked on the door.

The door was opened by a young man, who looked at the Taoist priest in front of him with a puzzled expression on his face.

The Taoist priest spoke,

"Young man, may I ask, has something strange happened to your family recently?"

......
